"Like all people, individuals with Down syndrome learn and develop at their own rate and in their own way. People with Down syndrome have varied goals for their futures and individual expectations of their roles in the family, school and community.
Down syndrome is not a blueprint for potential or a prescription for a given educational or life plan. However, people with Down syndrome often experience mild to moderate delays in their cognitive and physical development and research has shown that educational and therapeutic interventions (such as early intervention services) can greatly benefit learners with Down syndrome. Careful consideration, supports and early planning are often necessary to facilitate education and community life." – From the website.

Children need information about values, morals, and the subtleties of friendship, dating, love, and intimacy. They also need to know how to protect themselves against unwanted pregnancies, sexually transmitted diseases, and sexual exploitation. This is especially true when the young person has a disability.

Lipo Removes Fat But Not Type 2
Liposuction may suck fat from your body and take off pounds, but don't expect it to improve your type 2 diabetes.
Researchers at Washington State University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Missouri, write that abdominal liposuction ". . . does not significantly improve obesity-associated metabolic abnormalities."
The effect of abdominal liposuction on risk factors for coronary heart disease in women with abdominal obesity was observed in 15 obese women before and 10 to 12 weeks after liposuction. Eight of the women had normal glucose tolerance and seven had type 2 diabetes.
Liposuction decreased abdominal fat by 44 percent in the subjects with normal glucose tolerance and 28 percent in those with diabetes. However, liposuction did not significantly alter the insulin sensitivity of muscle, liver or adipose tissue; did not significantly alter inflammation markers; and did not significantly affect blood pressure, plasma glucose, insulin, and lipid concentrations in either group.

During this time of season, I pour the water collected to dehudifier down the drain. I was wondering if I could store this water in a rain barrel and use in summer for plants. Has anyone did this. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Why not? Water is water. It would be similar to distilled water. I would use it rather than putting it down the drain. |
- Posted by LuAnn_in_PA (My Page) on Sat, Apr 27, 13 at 13:12
I take the container out and empty the water right on all my plants in barrels and pots. |
My air conditioner is in the attic. It drains into a rain barrel and I use the water for my outside flower plant containers. |
My mother used the water in the steam iron. |
We always use the water for the dehumidifier to water the plants/grass outside. Seems a shame to waste it, especially since you're paying for the energy used to collect it. |

The drain for the condensate from out AC will end up outside, where I can use it for the gardens. I don't know how much there will be, but it's going onto the plants and not down the drain. |

Village Voice | RS_News | June 27 2012
OPINION ~ Matt Taibbi, like many journalists, grew up idolizing Hunter S. Thompson. But Taibbi, unlike many journalists, got Hunter S. Thompson's job.
The similarities between the two Rolling Stone scribes do not stop there, even though Taibbi himself argues he's nothing like Thompson. Both made their name pointing out hypocrisies and flaws in the U.S. government. Both thrived (one still is) at a time of turmoil in our country's history. Both even managed to love the same sport, the game of football. And now both have their name on the cover of the same book. Taibbi was given the responsibility of writing a new introduction to the 40th-anniversary edition of one of Thompson's seminal works, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72, which releases today.
In his introduction, Taibbi highlights the importance of Thompson's writing, calling him the "most instantly trustworthy" American narrator since Mark Twain, and argues that the book still continues to define the way we think about the dramas of politics. Taibbi stopped by The Village Voice office (where he was a summer intern in 1987) to chat about Thompson's influence, how Thompson lives up to his own cliche, and why Obama would disappoint Thompson, were Thompson still alive.
When did you first read Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72?
I remember my father [Emmy-winning journalist Mike Taibbi] telling me about when Thompson was writing the pieces in Rolling Stone at the time–not the book, but the monthly dispatches. It was such a unique thing because everybody was waiting for it at the end of every month. I didn't read the book till I was pretty old. I read Fear and Loathing in Las Vegaswhen I was in high school, and I probably read this when I was a senior in college.
Did you ever meet him?
No, but I talked to him on the phone once. That was close as I came. I was going to be hired by a publishing company to edit a compilation of gonzo journalism, and I was really broke at the time. So I sat down to really think about this project, and the more I thought about it, the more I realized that gonzo journalism just means Hunter Thompson. There aren't other examples of gonzo journalism. I tried to put something together, but then I called Thompson up and basically explained the dilemma: "I got stuck with this assignment, and what do you think of it, because if you're not into it, I'm probably not into it." And he goes [adopting a deep, gravelly voice], "That's a shitty assignment. How badly do you need the money?" And I said, "Pretty badly." And he said, "Well, I don't envy you." And that's how he left it, so I decided not to do it.

Major emphasis is placed upon monopoly, horizontal competitive restraints such as price fixing and concerted refusals to deal; and vertical competitive restraints such as resale price maintenance, tying and exclusive dealing, and mergers and joint ventures.

While the institution of collective bargaining remains central to the practice of labor law, a growing number of practicing lawyers are now developing a specialized practice in representing individual employees who are not covered by collective bargaining law. Reasons for the decline of federal labor law legislation of collective bargaining and various legal solutions to problems at the workplace involving individual employees are studied.

Final exam. With permission of the instructor, students may submit a paper to satisfy the UCWR in lieu of the final exam. Jurisprudence Seminar: How Judges Think President Obama's nomination of Sonia Sotomayor to the United States Supreme Court has provoked once again a great debate about how judges make decisions. While the Senators during the nomination hearing of Judge Sotomayor, a number of Senators asked question about a judge should cite and rely upon foreign authority in deciding a case involving American Law. Others wanted to know if Judge Sotomayor would follow the law. Still others were interested in knowing if Judge Sotomayor would decide cases based upon her ideological perspective and/or her preconceptions based on her personal experience. These are all the sorts of questions we will consider in the Seminar. But, we will also explore how the current economic recession and global financial crisis impacts on how these questions should be answered. The objective of our seminar will therefore seek to examine how judicial decision making as well as law law and justice is likely to develop in the aftermath of a global financial meltdown. As Richard A. Posner has recently written in his Atlantic blog: "The law schools were caught by surprise by the financial crisis of last September and the ensuing descent into what, realistically, must be regarded as the first depression (as distinct from merely a recession) since the Great Depression of 1930s."

When we built our house in 1990 we put in a VacuMaid P128 system. It is still going but our motor is not sounding very happy so I spent all day researching this online. I think I've narrowed it down to an Imperium CV7700, which has an even stronger motor than our old Vacu-Maid. But now I'm also interested in the Hide-A-Hose. We have a 2 story house and a full basement with a suspended ceiling. We've got 5 outlets total (1 up, 2 down and 2 in the basement) and two fulls sets of hoses/tools. We also added a VacPan in the kitchen last year. I can put a single 50' HAH outlet in the hallway on the first floor and easily reach the entire first and second floor (via the 2 story foyer). I frequently do the stairs and just continue on to the upstairs hallway with my 30' hose so I know the extra 20' will cover it. The upstairs is all carpet and the first floor is about half carpet and half hardwood. I've heard mixed comments about the Turbo-Cat results but I figure I'd still have my regular system If I needed the electric floor unit. As long as we have access to the ceiling in the basement, we should be able to run the 50'+ independent run and put in a HAH outlet on the first floor without tearing up sheetrock, right? Will my existing tools attach to the HAH pump handle? If so I was thinking about getting the 35' electric cord so I could use my electric rug attachment with the HAH instead of the Turbo Cat if I needed to. Also, any thoughts on the RF pump handle vs the plain one? It's over $100 extra and I'm already doubling my expenses if I add a HAH. My second VacuMaid hose had the power switch on the handle and I really liked that so I guess I should cough up the money for it but since it's so easy to put away, maybe I'll be more likely to just put it back in the "garage" if I have to stop for a while. Any other advice is appreciated. |

TORONTO - A Burlington family's Christmas get-together ended violently early Tuesday when a 53-year-old man was stabbed in the chest.
"It's a family issue," Halton Regional Police Sgt. Derek Davis told The Toronto Sun.
The wounded man remains in Hamilton General Hospital in critical but stable condition, he said.
Davis said the victim's injury "looked worse this morning, but now that he's stabilized, it's looking better."
Two men were arrested at the Kent Cres. home and taken to the 3 District police station, "but it's early in the investigation," he said. "We're still trying to work out who was responsible."
Davis said everyone in the home near Burloak Dr. and Spruce Ave. around 1 a.m. "was supposed to be there" and knew each other.
Officers are still trying to work out what happened.
Police were guarding the house, which forensic officers will search later for the weapon and clues to the near-fatal stabbing.
With the investigation continuing, names and charges were not released.
Anyone with information should contact Det. Andy Forde at 905-825-4747, ext. 2316.

Prague - All Czech papers comment on the situation in Ukraine in which President Viktor Yanukovych was toppled.
Yanukovych was an extreme case, but even former Ukrainian prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko can be hardly considered a model of political asceticism, Petr Honzejk writes in Hospodarske noviny (HN).
The new elections themselves will not resolve the problem, Honzejk writes.
The crucial question is as follows: Does Ukraine have the politicians with readiness and strength to transform the kleptocratic governance into a political system whose degree of corruption is on the European level? he asks.
Europe cannot export them to Ukraine. However, without them, Ukraine will not come closer to Europe, Honzejk writes.
Is the EU ready to invest in the victory of its "allies" in Ukraine so much as Russia in the victory of its own allies?" Matyas Zrno writes in Lidove noviny (LN).
Is the EU ready to lend 15 billion dollars to Ukraine and lower the prices of gas as Russians? he asks.
Is the EU ready and able to adopt a rapid and clear stand? Zrno asks.
Is the EU ready and able to advocate it with insistence? he adds.
After the experience with much smaller Bulgaria and Romania, is the EU really ready and able to accept Ukraine in the foreseeable future? Zrno asks.
Unfortunately, one has to give the answer "No!" to each of the asked questions, he adds.
When looking at the seasoned secret service officer Vladimir Putin on the one hand and the deplorably figure of Baroness Ashton on the other, one can only agree with the view that the EU is nothing but a paper tiger, Zrno writes.
It should be borne in mind Russian President Vladimir Putin's statement that the break-up of the Soviet Union, of which Ukraine was a member, was "the biggest geopolitical disaster of the 20th century," Teodor Marjanovic writes in Mlada fronta Dnes (MfD).
Now Putin is facing the prospect that the disaster will continue even under his government, which is a humiliating idea for him, Marjanovic writes.
Ukraine may be an independent country, but informally still firmly anchored in the Russian sphere of influence, he adds.
Putin has two alternative solutions with which to prevent the nightmare, Marjanovic writes.
Either he can abandon Yanukovych and concentrate on Tymoshenko winning the elections, he adds.
Perhaps he could make a deal with her to the effect that she would not exaggerate the pro-Western orientation of the country, Marjanovic writes.
However, Putin can also stop manoeuvring. He may prompt the break-up of Ukraine irrespective of heaps of dead bodies because only in this way, he will keep at least one piece of it on the vassal orbit around the Kremlin, he adds.

King James Version (KJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old. | 1 We have heard with our ears, O God; our fathers have told us what you did in their days, in days long ago. |
2 How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out . | 2 With your hand you drove out the nations and planted our fathers; you crushed the peoples and made our fathers flourish. |
3 For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them. | 3 It was not by their sword that they won the land, nor did their arm bring them victory; it was your right hand, your arm, and the light of your face, for you loved them. |
4 Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob. | 4 You are my King and my God, who decrees victories for Jacob. |
5 Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us. | 5 Through you we push back our enemies; through your name we trample our foes. |
6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me. | 6 I do not trust in my bow, my sword does not bring me victory; |
7 But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us. | 7 but you give us victory over our enemies, you put our adversaries to shame. |
8 In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah. | 8 In God we make our boast all day long, and we will praise your name forever. "Selah" |
9 But thou hast cast off , and put us to shame ; and goest not forth with our armies. | 9 But now you have rejected and humbled us; you no longer go out with our armies. |
10 Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves. | 10 You made us retreat before the enemy, and our adversaries have plundered us. |
11 Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen. | 11 You gave us up to be devoured like sheep and have scattered us among the nations. |
12 Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price. | 12 You sold your people for a pittance, gaining nothing from their sale. |
13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us. | 13 You have made us a reproach to our neighbors, the scorn and derision of those around us. |
14 Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people. | 14 You have made us a byword among the nations; the peoples shake their heads at us. |
15 My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me, | 15 My disgrace is before me all day long, and my face is covered with shame |
16 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth ; by reason of the enemy and avenger . | 16 at the taunts of those who reproach and revile me, because of the enemy, who is bent on revenge. |
17 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant. | 17 All this happened to us, though we had not forgotten you or been false to your covenant. |
18 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way; | 18 Our hearts had not turned back; our feet had not strayed from your path. |
19 Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death. | 19 But you crushed us and made us a haunt for jackals and covered us over with deep darkness. |
20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god; | 20 If we had forgotten the name of our God or spread out our hands to a foreign god, |
21 Shall not God search this out ? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart. | 21 would not God have discovered it, since he knows the secrets of the heart? |
22 Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter. | 22 Yet for your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered. |
23 Awake , why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise , cast us not off for ever. | 23 Awake, O Lord! Why do you sleep? Rouse yourself ! Do not reject us forever. |
24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression? | 24 Why do you hide your face and forget our misery and oppression? |
25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth. | 25 We are brought down to the dust; our bodies cling to the ground. |
26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake. | 26 Rise up and help us; redeem us because of your unfailing love. |

With Hollywood studios again under scrutiny for making violent movies, Paramount Pictures canceled Saturday's premiere in Pittsburgh of Tom Cruise's new film "Jack Reacher," in which Cruise plays a cold-blooded former military sniper.
In New York, the Lincoln Center Film Society postponed a Monday screening and conversation with Cruise "out of respect for the families who lost loved ones in Newtown, Connecticut," according to a statement.
"Jack Reacher," which opens with a sniper picking off and killing five apparently random targets on a riverfront promenade, is due to open in U.S. movie theaters on Friday.
Cruise has said nothing publicly about the shootings in Connecticut, and maintained his silence on the subject during a Monday appearance on "Late Show With David Letterman" to promote the film.
But "Jack Reacher" director Christopher McQuarrie told entertainment industry website TheWrap.com that the actor played a key role in the decision to cancel the red carpet premiere in Pittsburgh - where much of the movie was shot.
"Tom and I insisted on it. Nobody should be celebrating anything 24 hours after a tragic event like that," McQuarrie told TheWrap on Monday.
Letterman, however, spoke at length about the killings before Cruise joined him on the set, saying "it's a sad, sad holiday season."
The talk show host also said that gun laws were not the answer to a "multi-faceted" social ill.
"I'm not dumb enough to think that this is a problem of guns, because before there were guns people were killing each other," Letterman said.
He added that he was mystified by the "need" for semi-automatic weapons like one reportedly used in the Connecticut massacre. In a lighter vein, he remarked: "I've never seen a deer worth 30 rounds of ammo and an automatic rifle."

I have some in my garden, but I got it from a friend. The caterpillars have totally devoured this year! You might try calling Northhaven Gardens and seeing if they get any in during the Spring. I think they might. Also, the Texas Discovery Gardens in Fair Park usually has a Spring sale where they feature that plant. |
- Posted by cass_fritillary (My Page) on Sun, Oct 21, 07 at 14:40
Thanks, I actually did call Northhaven and they didn't have any. They said they might in the Spring. I also talk to the head horticulturist at Discovery Gardens and found out about their sale in June. That is so far away!! Anyway, I've marked my calendar for June and since then found some generous awesome people who are sending me some and I should get it anyday in the mail. I am actually getting one a. tomentosa and 3 a. serpentaria that I will be able to start with in Spring and hopefully will be able to get a. fimbriata in the Spring to add to them. Right now I have 4 passiflora vines and absolutely love them and I'm looking so forward to adding the pipevine swallowtail to my yard (and many more in the future:) Do you have any other "can't live without" butterfly plants in your yard that do well in dallas and the butterflies love? Thanks for your advice, |
I have several small plants if you're still looking for them. I'm planning to dig them up and toss them. They're Aristolochia tomentosa. |
- Posted by cass_fritillary (My Page) on Fri, Dec 28, 07 at 23:43
Oh my gosh! I just read your message and I bet I'm too late, but if you still have the a tomentosa I would like to take it off your hands! Let me know. |
This past Spring Lowes in Plano had some. Call the Garden Center there and ask them if and when they will get them in. Don't know which one but the lady who told me had just been on a tour of a Butterfly Garden in Plano and found it on the way home. She lives in Richardson so I bet it is on 75. |

Research Interests
How does the olfactory apparatus of vertebrates detect and discriminate thousands of odors? Our approach to elucidating the mechanisms of olfactory discrimination involves the characterization of odorant receptors and the neural pathways that they activate. We are also interested in the developmental mechanisms responsible for specifying olfactory neurons and the pathfinding of these cells' axons to their appropriate targets. Finally, our lab is applying large scale gene expression approaches to elucidate genome-wide patterns of gene expression in the nervous system.
Current Projects
The zebrafish olfactory system. The numerical and anatomical simplicity of the zebrafish olfactory system facilitates an analysis of the molecular and cellular basis of olfactory coding in a vertebrate species. In one line of investigation, we are defining the odorant-binding properties of cloned fish odorant receptors, as fish respond to water soluble cues that are more amenable as probes for biochemical analyses. The zebrafish also offers advantages for studying development; methods for the generation and screening of mutant zebrafish may permit genetic approaches for studying odorant receptor gene expression and olfactory neurogenesis. Genomic mapping of odorant receptor genes and reveals that, as in other vertebrate species, odorant receptor genes are clustered in the zebrafish genome. However, genes tightly linked within a cluster are not coordinately regulated, suggesting that the regulation of individual receptor genes require the interaction of specific trans-acting factors with proximal cis-regulatory sequences. We are pursuing a variety of approaches, including transgenic manipulations, to define the promoter sequences responsible for directing the developmentally-regulated expression of the odorant receptor genes. We are also developing in vivo optical imaging techniques to monitor and analyze patterns of neuronal activity in response to odorant stimulation.
Patterning in the olfactory bulb. Olfactory neurons expressing the same odorant receptor converge with great precision to a small number of glomeruli in the olfactory bulb. This suggests that spatial patterns of afferent innervation in the bulb are used to encode olfactory information. What are the mechanisms for specifying the pattern of olfactory neuron projections in the olfactory bulb? We are pursuing several complementary approaches to identify the molecules involved in olfactory axon pathfinding. Transgenic manipulations in the mouse and zebrafish are being used to assess the potential role of candidate genes in the formation of the olfactory sensory map. We are also utilizing DNA microarrays to search for molecules expressed in spatially-restricted patterns in the olfactory bulb; such molecules would be good candidates as guidance cues for ingrowing olfactory axons.
Analysis of gene expression in the developing nervous system. Recent advances, which include the sequencing of entire genomes of selected model systems and the ability to survey "genome-wide" patterns of gene expression, now allow the dissection of biological processes at unprecedented levels of detail. We have established in our laboratory the full capabilities for carrying out large scale analysis of gene expression. These techniques allow the analysis of mRNA expression from tens of thousands of genes at a time. We are using genome-wide approaches as tools to investigate patterns of developmentally-regulated and spatially-restricted patterns of gene expression in the vertebrate central nervous system. Projects are focused on identifying the gene regulatory networks associated with olfactory neurogenesis during development and regeneration.

The Best New Liquid Eyeliner
I've used liquid eyeliner as long as I've worn makeup (junior high?). It's what my mom used, and therefore, the medium I mastered. Back then, the only options were liquid liners with those little paint-brush applicators. Now there are the felt-tip marker style, which I think are totally impossible to use. My original favorite was a Lancome liquid liner that is no longer made (isn't that always the case with the products you can't live without?). To be honest, I've tried a million liquid liners since and not found one I liked as much the beloved Lancome.
That was, until last year, when Yves Saint Laurent introduced its Eyeliner Baby Doll ($34). It has a paint-brush applicator I find incredibly easy to control even if your hand's a little wobbly. A good trick I picked up from Bobbi Brown is to trace over recently-set liquid liner with a pencil liner to even out any bumps or gaps in your line. This also makes the color last longer.
Baby Doll comes in a range of shades, from conservative to funky. I've been using Light Golden Brown (10), which actually has traces of green in it, and Light Amethyst (12), a wearable purple that pops nicely against brown eyes.
For those of you who like the felt-tip liquid liners, the best trick I've learned is to dot the tip along the base of your lashes, then carefully play connect the dots. But for me that's too time-consuming. I'd rather just apply in one sweep with the paint-brush tip.
Would love to hear your liquid-eyeliner discoveries!

04.05.05 - By Elliot Worsell: Go getting Cruiserweight talent David Haye and manager Adam Booth have signalled their intent this afternoon, by confirming that accomplished former IBF cruiserweight champion Arthur Williams 38-10-1 (27 KOs) will provide the 23 year old Londoner's next professional assignment in Reading on May 12. Announced at a 'Fight Academy' press conference today in Reading, Williams was plucked from a shortlist of well established cruiserweight names ranging from former IBF title contenders Derrick Harmon and Jason Robinson to battle hardened US veteran Ernest Mateen. All names considered to share a ring with the much hyped prospect, and all names that would represent an unquestionable step up in class. Williams, coming off a ten round points loss to Russian prospect Vadim Tokarev, was given the call, and having traded blows with the likes of Orlin Norris, IBF heavyweight champion Chris Byrd, Vassiliy Jirov, ONeill Bell and recently crowned IBF cruiserweight belt holder Kelvin Davis in former years, Hayes lofty amateur reputation wont faze him in the slightest. Upbeat and naturally brimming with confidence, Haye described the rumble with Williams as his challenge, the chance to begin beating the best, and get noticed on the global stage. Last time out against Hastings Rasani, I had never been more under-motivated for a fight. The Bermondsey born puncher explained. I just couldnt be bothered with it all. I couldnt get up for that fight, and as a result, went in there and just blasted him out not caring. Against a guy like Williams though, who has world-class credentials, I will have to be at my very best. If I rush in and fight like I did against Rasani, I know hell soak it all up and stop me late. But when I have a real challenge, thats when I know the best will come. I think its far more dangerous to under-match me than overmatch me, because there is always the risk of taking a fighter lightly. I definitely wont be doing that on May 12. Haye warned. The self proclaimed King Arthur may not be the same polished jewel as he was back in 94/95 when taking respected names Orlin Norris and Chris Byrd to the wire, but nonetheless, for a nine fight novice to tackle the noted warhorse over eight rounds, shows not only intent, but a great deal of ambition on the 23 year olds part. Fight Academy mogul Robert Waterman, clearly delighted at having signed such a touted practitioner, was quick to reveal how such a giant leap in competition occurred for Haye. Usually its down to the promoter to pick and choose who his fighters fight, but in this case I had both David and Adam Booth demanding a fighter of the calibre of Arthur Williams. They went about getting a quality opponent in, and were intent on making a real step up in class following the Rasani fight. The fight with Pensacola born Williams is a welcome step up for all parties, and pending the result in Reading, is merely the first notch on the ladder towards world title triumph for Haye. I dont want to just be a world champion, I want to be the world champion.' Haye insisted. 'I want to do things the traditional way, win all the major titles out there, and then defend them against the best fighters out there. After a year of feeling out the professional game, and getting used to it, on May 12 the serious stuff begins, and Ill be in the ring with a guy who has mixed it with the best fighters in the world.

The implied value at that point will be much lower after the shine has come off D3, so are they going to have to add new freebies to keep it interesting? Free SC2 Protoss episode? "Titan:-themed ingame pets? And if so, will they extend these benefits to continuing annual pass members?

Lichborne: More blood tanking questions answered {WoW}
Apr 12th 2011 6:25PM Re: Agility, you're right it should not be something we actively seek out on items by and large, but there is still something to be said for having an agility 2-hander instead of a strength weapon, as long as it has mastery on it, but it depends on what kind of gear build you're working on.
For threat, a strength weapon will give you a bit of an edge over an agility weapon for that added attack power, but consider that for the same ilevel, an agility weapon's DPS is the same as a strength weapon, so you're only missing out on ~600 AP.
Avoidance wise, agility packs a stronger punch than strength does
The caveat to the agility weapon discussion should be: PRE-RAID. Once you start running raids, get your grubby hands on Akirus as fast as you can (or another epic 2-hander)
So, bottom line, get the best 2-hander you can, preferably with mastery on it for avoidance or hit for threat. If you want a threat weapon, get a strength mace (or axe or sword). If you want an avoidance weapon, get an agility axe (or polearm).
Lichborne: Blood Death Knight Tanking 101 {WoW}
Mar 29th 2011 8:59PM Don't discount agility as a tanking stat, too - Agi brings more dodge rating per point than strength does, and that touch of crit doesn't hurt threat generation. Most lists actually have pre-raid agi weapons as better tank 2-handers than strength ones.

Dark is fine as long as there is an emotional counterpoint that provides viewers with some relief. The Doctor works best when he is unflappable in the direst of circumstances and quick with a smile and a joke, showing the companions and the viewers that everything is under control. Tom Baker and David Tennant both did this brilliantly.
I don't know if anyone else has spotted it but Capaldi is still wearing his wedding ring in that photo.
Rather than griping about which scene from Doctor Who was chosen we should just be happy that DW beat Avengers, Star Wars, Game of Thrones and Harry Potter. That's quite an achievement.
@sontaran17 I get that it is a joke, but then I'm bloody old.
He's right. My wife lost interest after Tennant left. But now my mother has expressed interest in seeing Capaldi in the role, so he will attract a different generation of female fans.
David and Karen together would have been just too sexy. Televisions around the world would have exploded.
Colin's Doctor was no weirder than Sylvester's, he just had the unfortunate position of following Peter's relatively normal Doctor and was therefore such a jarring contrast. If Tom Baker had regenerated into Colin Baker we would have thought nothing of it.
I can't see them doing a spin-off but they could easily use the 8th Doctor in a team-up with the 12th. It doesn't need to be an anniversary for them to go multi-Doctor, remember there was the story 'The Two Doctors' featuring the 6th and the 2nd. And a Christmas Special would be 'special' enough for a McGann & Capaldi outing.
TEN is my favourite of the modern Doctors, but I find that the series of Specials gradually moved him through a change of character so much so that by the time of the regeneration I was kind of glad to see him go. So it was wonderful to have him in the 50th and back to being the fun Doctor that I enjoyed so much.
The Moff should do something 'timey-wimey' and write an episode which makes Jenny the mother of Susan, the Doctor's granddaughter from the original series.
@Deus_Ex_Machina I try to concentrate on completing one Doctor at a time. I have all of Peter Davison and am three short of all the Tom Bakers.
Makes sense that they would do this. That way the Smith era is nicely wrapped up without cramming the specials into the Season Eight box set. Similar to how they ended Tennant with a specials set. Now Capaldi gets his very own debut box set just like Matt did.
Never heard of her and don't know her music so I will probably miss the significance when she does appear in her episode. I'm gathering that this is some kind of attempt to draw a certain demographic to the show. P.S. Katherine Jenkins is a goddess.
I'm staying out of this one.
Agree that Sir Ian was underused, perhaps his fee was considerably lower for voice only. Don't really care much about the others, a familiar face in a brief appearance has a wonderful affect regardless.
@GeoffreyFoster After Amy and Rory marry they are not always with the Doctor. He pops in and out of their life and goes off and has adventures in between visits which take up large chunks of his own timeline without affecting theirs. It's all there in the episodes, Eleven's extra 300 years on top of Ten are accounted for.
"the stranger we will soon get to know very well".
We won't be getting to know him at all. We will be watching him acting. Acting as another person who is not him.
@WillAtkinson1 Thanks for picking up the mistake. Of course it was Battlefield, Battlefront is a Star Wars video game. There's just too much stuff bouncing around my brain.
@GazpachoSoup Agreed.
Yes Robin Hood is just a legend, so is King Arthur but they used Arthurian characters in the Seventh Doctor story 'Battlefront' and even stated that the Doctor was Merlin. It would be cool if the Doctor was somehow involved in inspiring the Hood legend as well.
I have all the Fifth Doctor stories on DVD and without stepping away from the computer to have another look I think the Top 5 and Honourable Mentions in the article would probably be my eight favourites. I must watch all the Fifth Doctor stories again in order one of these days, haven't done that since the original broadcasts.
That Indiana Jones poster is just brilliant.
For me it's about whether I like the companion. In the Tenth era Rose was too dopey and Martha was too desperate but Donna was great so Series 4 is my favourite Tenth Doctor series. In the Eleventh era Amy had this whole crazy/sexy/scary thing going on which made it hard for me to warm to her but I'm totally in love with Clara so Series 7 has to be my favourite Eleventh Doctor series.
Happy Birthday. I'm the same age as David Tennant so Peter Davison was my Doctor too. The Fifth is the only one of the classics that I have every DVD of (with only three stories to go from owning all of the Fourth).
John Hurt probably said the same thing once upon a time.
Basically it was 'the Doctor meets Catwoman'. Let's throw a bad-girl at him and see what happens. We were meant to warm to her at the same pace as the Doctor so that by the end we were happy with the outcome. For me it was a bit like the end of The Doctor's Daughter, it left me wanting to know what the character was going to do next and that's a good ending.
The Christmas Invasion. The Tennant era begins!
The Name of the Doctor gets my vote because of that superb revelation at the end. One of the best cliffhanger endings ever and it made the wait for the 50th special so much harder to endure. And they got John Hurt! Genius.
Voted Pandorica, but Stolen Earth and Sound of Drums just as good.
He'll be a one-off episode specific guest villain...not the Master. Still hoping for Charles Dance there.
Sorry but I'm voting for 'The Lodger'. Not because the story or the monster were particularly fantastic but because Matt did such a great job portraying a Doctor who was so wonderfully out of place in a domestic situation. For me it was the comedy element of this episode that makes it a sentimental favourite. My second choice would be 'Utopia' because of Sir Derek Jacobi.
The Ian-Type, but not necessarily the Other-Half. Ian's function in the original series was to be the man-of-action beside the elderly Doctor, so with an older Doctor again this type could make sense in the modern action-packed (so much running!) series and he does not necessarily need to be a romantic interest. Plus having two teachers from Coal Hill School again is too good for Mr Moffat to resist.
If we accept that any future point in time is subject to changes made in the present day then I am completely happy that 'Name' was only a possible future which was then negated by the events of 'Time' which occurred chronologically before it. Re-writing the future is a standard device in time-travel fiction. The tomb was just one possible future outcome and ultimately it doesn't matter because the Trenzalore prophecy didn't say that he died it said "the fall of the 11th" which is what we did see immediately before the rise of the 12th.
I showed 'Blink' to a mate who is into horror films but has never watched Doctor Who and it absolutely freaked him out.
Not fair that 'Vincent and the Doctor' is up against 'Blink'. Sorry Richard Curtis but 'Blink' has my vote.
@Chronos the Fannibal A lot of Who actors are turning up on 'Arrow'. It's good to see John Barrowman and Alex Kingston whenever their characters are featured.
The Family of Blood just wins over Forest of the Dead for me, both were strong second parts of great stories. My personal opinion is that The Satan Pit was a bit of a stunt/gimmick both in name and story and that other episodes on the list like The Empty Child and Night Terrors were much scarier.
Of course the real reason that the Doctor can't go back and get Amy and Rory is because Karen and Arthur have left the show. That's the same reason why he couldn't go get Rose back from the parallel universe, because Billie left the show. RTD wrote his way out of it so the Moff will too if he ever needs to revisit the Ponds.
Human Nature. It was such a great idea, the Doctor being able to hide his Time Lord nature and completely forget who he was, and then the complications that being human brought him.
The Unicorn and the Wasp. Agatha Christie + Doctor Who = Television Gold.
He's brilliant in Davinci's Demons. Very Doctor-ish.
Though 'Dalek' was a pretty important episode for the revived series I'm voting for 'The Doctor's Daughter'. At the time it was an absolutely perfect teaser for fans of classic Who - he had a granddaughter originally so did this mean we were going to meet Susan's mother? Story aside, the fact that she turned out to ironically be the Doctor's daughter (Peter Davison's daughter) was just icing on the cake for a fun episode that featured a new alien species and not one but two companions in Donna and Martha.
Over on theonering.net they've got a cracker of an April Fools article about Leonard 'Mr Spock' Nimoy performing the end credits song for the third Hobbit film.
@Huknar David Troughton doesn't just look like his father. He narrates the audio book of Stephen Baxter's 'Doctor Who: The Wheel of Ice' and he sounds exactly like his father when delivering the Second Doctor's lines.
Sean Pertwee is going to be awesome as Alfred in 'Gotham'.
Going with The Angels Take Manhattan because it was farewell to the Ponds.
Fires of Pompeii. It's got the brilliant Tennant/Tate double act plus future companion Karen Gillan and future Doctor Peter Capaldi.
The Girl in the Fireplace is one of my absolute favourites. It's a Moffat and it's a lovely tragic story. But I'm voting for The Doctor's Wife because it is such a brilliant idea that is perfectly executed by the actors.
School Reunion. SARAH JANE SMITH returns!!

I guess it was bound to happen. Someone went ahead and designed a pair of earbuds that are based around the idea of a prescription pill. The Elecom pill earphones look exactly like what you would find in your medication cabinet.
As they are an Elecom product, they will undoubtedly deliver incredible sound quality. Take a gander at the Elecom pill earphones; they just might catch your eye.

Chic packaging, I love how the bottle has like a matte feeling to it too! It goes on very easily and dries extremely fast which is a nice change because some top coats take a while to dry fully. I apply one coat every few weeks and it keeps my nails feeling matte. Does everything it says it will
This product makes any nail polish look matte, it dries very fast (so overall I would say it speeds up the entire drying process), the finish is uniform and looks like frosted glass. I wait however 15 minutes before using it over nail polish coats because some are cheaper and do not dry so fast. It's very easy to spread in an uniform coat and overall I rated it 3 for price because even though it's very expensive it does do everything it says it does.
I Love wearing dark nails. I know it is not always the "in" thing, but I like them. I also don't always was super shinny nails. This top coat was just the thing. It Matifies your color without making it crazy. It is wonderful!
