--Mr. Walyuchow moved and Ms. West seconded to approve the minutes of September 26, 2012, minutes as circulated.
Presidents Report–Dr. Phil Castille
- Cabinet Retreat
Dr. Castille thanked Dr. Rice and others that were involved in the planning of this year's President's Cabinet retreat. Dr. Castille said we will probably alternate years on the overnight retreats. Everyone agreed that hosting the retreat earlier in the academic year worked best for everyone. Dr. Castille expressed his appreciation for the external funding that allowed UHV to have Dr. Rose Mary Fry as this year's retreat facilitator. - Freshmen Recruiting
Last Spring, Dr. Castille felt that UHV needed to be more mobilized/centralized in FTIC/freshmen recruiting. He congratulated all concerned on making up lost ground and bouncing back with outstanding fall recruitment this year. However, he reminded everyone that our fall enrollment actually fell backwards by a few students, because of declines in grad student enrollment and transfer students. He wants everyone this spring to seriously focus on recruitment efforts to attract more transfers and grad students, because this is our last chance in a "count year" to drive the funding formula with more student enrollments. Dr. Castille asked Dr. Cass to establish how our advisors and recruiters are networking across campus. Dr. Cass will work with the deans to try to achieve optimum coordination and make sure that job duties match up with job descriptions. - Board of Regents' Retreat
Dr. Castille said the System's strategic plan was discussed at this year's Board of Regents' retreat. He hopes to learn more about this plan at the next meeting. - SummerFlex Reminder
Dr. Castille reminded everyone to communicate to their staffs that summer 2012 was the final year for SummerFlex. UHV will no longer allow offices to be closed at noon on Fridays during the summer..
- Cabinet Retreat
- Academic Affairs–Dr. Jeff Cass
--Dr. Cass said he is working on a short-term strategy to boost enrollment growth for the spring. His plans are to beef up Google AdWords, target sophomores, provide information to create a plan for recruitment, bring resources back into alignment and work with the school deans on matching up positions with job descriptions. He is also planning an upcoming meeting with recruiters and certain advisors. To be effective as an institution, Dr. Cass would like for enrollment management to see what they have and how they are being utilized.
--Ms. Andrea Dry was hired as the Associate Director of Annual Giving and Alumni Relations and will start in November; and the new Associate Director of Assessment, Dr. Sharon Bailey, has already started work at UHV.
- Facilities & Finance Updates–Wayne Beran
- American Campus Communities
Mr. Beran announced that Zandy Baker, Director of Housing with American Campus Communities (ACC), is no longer with UHV. ACC will be providing a temporary to fill this position until they find someone with experience that matches UHV's needs. - Possible Property Purchases
The owner of the building that Jaguar Court is located in is now willing to sell and the owners of the 2 apartment properties across the street from campus, Casa Del Rio and Arlington apartments, are also willing to sell. Mr. Beran will be visiting with the UH System about the purchase of these properties. Hopefully by May or June UHV will own these three properties. There was discussion on how we could use the properties across the street if purchased—married student housing, international student housing, fraternities, and single parent housing. Mr. Beran said five construction firms were interviewed for the new Center for Regional Economic Development Building. He said he felt there was a good variety of firms represented—one from Columbus, two from Houston, one national firm, and one international firm. Members of the search committee consisted of four UHV representatives and three System representatives. Plans are to have a recommendation by next week. The construction firm selected will work with architectural firms Perkins + Will and Rawley McCoy & Associates to get the building completed. The goal for completion is 10-13 months, fall 2014.
- American Campus Communities
- Other Items
Dean Cass announced that Dr. Rice is working with Sugar Land City Councilman Himesh Gandhi to be the fall 2012 UHV commencement speaker.
Dr. Castille requested the "One for All-All for One" FY 2013 staff and faculty campaign material be sent out by the end of October, so that we don't lose another month of payroll deductions.
Ms. West said that students liked the new location and arrangements of the "Meet the Leaders" luncheon this year. Hosting the luncheon at Jaguar Hall seemed to make the students more comfortable visiting with administrators in their own environment and she said she had received a lot of student feedback. In the works, are plans to establish a monthly administrator meeting with students.
Ms. Cobler said she had attended a marketing meeting at the UH main campus where the UH System marketing directors talked about the marketing challenges facing each of their campuses. Another group meeting is scheduled for the end of November at the Sugar Land campus.
In Ms. Norgard's absence, Dr. Thomas said departments are working very hard on SACS related issues. Freshmen recruiters are busy, will be in San Antonio next week, and will have two upcoming visits in Houston. She reported that freshmen applications are far ahead of the count last year, more than 550 applications and 66 students have already been accepted. There will be special attention on how we manage these students.
Mr. Walyuchow reported that there are two soccer games today—final home game for the men is today and the women's final home game is Saturday. He said UHV should find out today if one or both of the teams will earn berths to the Association of Independent Institutions Conference soccer tournaments in San Marcos, California in November.
Dean Tart said the School of Nursing has received full approval from the Texas Board of Nursing for based upon our pass rate of the Second Degree BSN program. The UHV BSN Second Degree Program was commended for the 93.33% examination pass rate. UHV School of Nursing was voted unanimously by the Texas Medical Center's Executive Board to be a institutional member of the Texas Medical Center. We are one of five university nursing programs that are a full member institution in the Texas Medical Center. Dean Tart reported that she is co-primary investigator on a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation grant for Advancing Practice in Nursing (APIN). The grant is one of nine grants nationwide and will work to provide a RN-BSN curriculum state-wide, increase nursing diversity, provide faculty development and work with health care practice partners to increase the number of nurses to achieve the BSN degree. UHV is looked at as a leader in this program.
Dean Di Leo said UHV's criminal justice bachelor's degree was ranked number 13 by TheBestSchools.org as one of the best online criminal justice programs in the nation.
Dean Niroomand said he has an upcoming meeting with a delegation from Morocco in Sugar Land this week to discuss recruiting students. He is still working on recruiting students from Saudi Arabia with the help of the Saudi ambassador in Canada. He also mentioned that Taiwanese Universities are waiting to sign an MOU with UHV.
Dr. Neill said she will be presenting in San Antonio on work through a Perkins Grant. She and Dr. Justin Bell will be attending the Texas Council of Faculty Senate meeting in Austin this week.
Dr. Dahlstrom announced the upcoming Texas Book Festival on October 27 and 28, in Austin, TX, at the State Capitol and surrounding grounds. He said that UHV will be represented at the festival and that Diana López, English faculty member who presented a Banned Books Week program for the Library, is on a Texas Book Festival panel on Saturday afternoon.
Ms. Cobler reminded everyone of the upcoming President's Annual Report & Excellence Awards event on November 15. This year's theme is "History in the Making."
Dean Litton said the School of Education & Human Development has been working with Gonzales High School on a new cohort—approximately 10 new graduate students will be coming in January. They are also working with private schools in Houston and Katy and will have between 5-15 students starting in January in the online VOICE Program. Next week a new cohort program with Fort Bend ISD in Education Administration with 20-25 new students is planned for next fall. In November, the university will host a regional meeting of the Texas Association of Future Educators (TAFE) with about 250 high school students visiting campus. In hopes of making a difference in our community, Dean Litton said VISD is working with the superintendent, school board and the Schools of Education & Human Development and Arts & Sciences to adopt one school in the local area in need of additional support. The school selected will be announced shortly. We will also be taking our successful counseling program (one course) to the HCC Katy Campus in January.
Dr. Castille said the university's blend of face-to-face and online courses is a priority for us in growing our students in Victoria. It is also important to continue growing face-to-face classes (F2F) in The Woodlands and in Fort Bend County, along with online deliver. F2F classes are necessary for students to "bond" with UHV, although not all classes need to be F2F. He said it may be time to take a look at what programs are working and what are not working across the schools. We expect the legislature to enact another lean budget, and deans and the provost will have to make hard choices about how to internally concentrate our resources behind our most successful programs
Dean Di Leo stated there is a need for more ITV rooms; this is an important tool for face-to-face classes and is also needed for research. He also requested space to offer chemistry and physics classes for this fall.
Mr. Ferguson reminded everyone a request has been sent to the Budget Committee requesting funding to set up University Center Room 303 as an ITV room.
Dr. Castille said that he has asked for recommendations about how to split the IT department, with some IT units reporting to Academic Affairs while other units within the department will continue as currently arranged to report to the Vice President for Administration & Finance. He said they are looking for ideas and working on suggestions concerning this item.
Meeting was adjourned at 11:30 a.m.

''Sopranos'' fans are used to long waits between seasons, but this time, the wait could stretch to two years or longer. Talking to the TV critics' summer conclave in Los Angeles, HBO chief Chris Albrecht said that the sixth -- and reportedly last -- season won't air until sometime in 2006. He would not specify when during 2006 the show would premiere or why the lag time would be so long. The good news, though, was that it's likely to be a full 13-episode season, not the abbreviated final season that series creator David Chase initially envisioned.
Albrecht says he may have talked Chase out of making just 10 episodes for Season 6. ''I have said to David, 'Especially if you're making the audience wait a while, it would be great to do as many as you thought you could do with the same quality that everyone has come to expect of you,''' Albrecht said. ''He hasn't said no. And with David, that's always a very good sign.'' As for how fans will cope with the long wait, Albrecht compared Chase to another meticulous, tortoise-paced auteur, J.K. Rowling. ''It's like the Harry Potter book,'' Albrecht said. ''You'll wait for the sequel and be very happy to get it.''

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is St. Freckles!
Facts about St. Freckles
- Breed: St. Bernard/Australian Shepherd Mix
- Color: White - With Brown Or Chocolate
- Age: Young
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Male
St. Freckles's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, and up to date with shots.
St Freckles
St Bernard /Australian Shepherd
Young Male Large
Apx. birthdate: 9/15/11
Weight: 75 pounds
Adoption fee: $250
Look who is looking for you!
St Freckles is a great boy. He has the look of a Saint with pretty blue Aussie eyes. A great size, he is just 75 pounds – a mini- Saint, an Apartment Size Bernard. Wonderful disposition… not as laid back as a St. nor as active as an Aussie, he is an athletic boy who love people. He wants to be part of the family. A good-natured lover, St. Freckles does very well with other dogs. He too big to be the best choice for a family with small children but if the kids are over 4 feet tall, he's your guy.
Sadly, like so many dogs from southern MO or Northern AR, Freckles was heartworm positive (and not neutered) when he came to us. Both have been taken care of so he is ready to go. His adoption fee will help us cover a portion of his medical. We hope his new family won't mind helping us with his life saving expenses. Such a good dog, such a desire to live and love and play; as the cost for heartworm treatment is very high, it is prohibitive for many small shelters like ours to treat… and still – someone has to save a dog like Freckles! Many a great dog pays with their life for a person's decision not to use heartworm preventative.
St Freckles has been neutered. All vaccines are current.
To adopt this pup, go to our website Takeafriendhome.org and click on the link to the application. Complete and send. For more information, call Deanna at 573-889-9691 or Cynthea 573-714-4232. You can email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Housetrained? Yes. And he will have to learn a new routine in a new home. Just remember - A dog can't be any more housetrained than you are. For your pup to be successful: use a crate, go out with your dog, praise "right action", and expect more of yourself than you do of your dog. Housetraining tips are in your adoption packet.
Adoption Fees and Payment Plans: We take credit cards and checks. Payments can be arranged with a credit card. As with all of our adoptions, we know it is hard to get married on a blind date... even to a wonderful pup. We will take our dog back during the first month and refund your adoption fee less $75. To hold a pup, we ask for a $50 non-refundable deposit if delivery is not made during the same week.
About the breed: Saint Bernards are extremely gentle and friendly and very tolerant of children. Slow moving, patient, and obedient. Extremely loyal, this breed wants to please. Since this dog is so giant, be sure to socialize it very well at a young age with other people. It is highly intelligent and easy to train, however training should begin early, while the dog is still a manageable size. Teach this dog not to jump on humans starting at puppyhood. Bear in mind that an unruly dog of this size presents a problem for even a strong adult if it is to be exercised in public areas on a leash, so take control from the onset. The Saint Bernard is a good watchdog. Even its size is a good deterrent.
Australian Shepherds are easy going, perpetual puppies that love to play. Courageous, loyal and affectionate, they are excellent children's companions that are great with active children. A devoted friend and guardian, for they are naturally protective. Very lively, agile and attentive ‑ they are eager to please, with a sixth sense about what the owner wants. Australian Shepherds are highly intelligent and easy to train. Though aggressive when at work with livestock, the Aussie is gentle with human friends. The breed is very intelligent, active and easily bored. They can become nervous and destructive if left alone too much without exercise.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
St. Freckles, a St. Louis St. Bernard/Australian Shepherd dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a St. Bernard/Australian Shepherd for sale in St. Louis, or seeking a St. Bernard/Australian Shepherd dog from a breeder in St. Louis.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in St. Louis already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a St. Louis breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even St. Bernard/Australian Shepherd breeders who help with St. Bernard/Australian Shepherd rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in St. Louis paves the way for another one to be saved.

Write well. Write often. Edit wisely.
Tips for writing romantic love, for showing characters falling in love.
Include anticipation in your stories to keep readers turning pages and involved with possible outcomes for your characters.
A reminder to layer on the emotional hits so the reader will feel them. Use knockout lines or zingers when that works for a scene, but don't be hesitant about pushing, about hitting the emotional button again and again.
Use celebrations and holidays in your stories to make characters real, to tap into emotional moments in a character's life.
Continue reading Celebrations in Story—Marking the Special Days »
Unfamiliar situations and places can be disconcerting for any of us. But the unfamiliar and stressful can be great for creating character unease and increasing tension.
Continue reading New Experiences? Use Them in Your Writing »
Characters who don't react are cold and distant, and their lack of reaction keeps readers at a distance. Engage readers by using character reaction to stir readers' emotions.
Continue reading Engage Readers Through Character Reaction »
We know that to engage readers, our fiction should touch them emotionally. But how do we guarantee that our writing touches readers on an emotional level? We use techniques that produce emotional responses.
Emotions pull readers into the story faster than most anything else a writer could try. They are instant connection points. Think of emotions as tentacles reaching to the reader and tying him to your tale. Wrap him tightly, so tightly that he must stay with you until the end.

i dont know who applies contour with this brush but im sure it could be done....i just use it to blend out my eyeshadow or cover blemishes and it works damn well for that
A nice sturdy stiff dome brush and good for making concrete shapes before blending it out. It picks up the product well and is very dense. It's easy on the eyes despite being firm, no tugging or pulling. It's very easy to wash due to its synthetic bristles and doesn't bleed or shed at all. I'm beginning to think that the ELF Studio Brush line is perfect.

I love E.L.F brushes...love them. And this is another brush from E.L.F that works great. It grabs eyeshadow very well and blends color perfectly. It's the perfect brush for the crease of my eyelid and I will never go back to any other applicator.

Put this little love to the test for the first time today, and wow. Have been looking for a good inexpensive crease brush for a while now. All ways ended up with one that was too big for my big eyes. This one fits into the crease so perfectly! Grabs and holds color, blends and applies beautifully, diffuses color like a blending brush would but all the while being precise and not just kicking up color and placing it somewhere you don't want it to go. Amazing for creating my trademark soft yet sexy Smokey eye look. Its love :) .would've paid so much more for this little wonder. Would repurchase, and will buy a backup soon. A must have!

I first thought this would be too big for my crease. I don't have monolids, but I don't have that big doe eyes, either. It took me quite some time to exactly pinpoint my creases.
As with other brushes from the same line, the bristles are really soft and handle is beautiful sleek black, albeit a tad bit too long for my liking. The bristles are pretty dense and have pretty appropriate length to make it easily works for applying color to the crease and outer-v. I also use this brush to apply highlight to brow bones and the inner-corners. It only has trouble picking up colors with pretty dense eyeshadows. But with better textured ones, it applies like a dream. It also easily blends shadows. I just adore this.

This brush is amazing! It's one of the best Elf Studio brushes (along with the eyeshadow "C" brush). It blends eyeshadows beautifully, and it picks up a great amount of product as well. I honestly can't get over how amazingly it blends. The price is amazingly cheap of course (only $3!), and the design is sleek and really purdy (handle is matte black). I'm going to go back to Target to buy another one! Definitely worth the money, and it's definitely a staple for makeup artists or just beginners. Basically everyone so go buy one now before I buy them all.

Great for contouring and concealing dark circles. A bit big for the eye crease but it's a soft and inexpensive brush!

this is my HG crease brush! I have spent upwards of 30 dollars trying to find the perfect contouring/crease brush, and here it was all along for 3 bucks. The quality is outstanding, the bristles are soft to the touch, but still very dense. They don't shed, and the blend perfectly. I highly recommend giving this brush a shot!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I recently ordered the e.l.f studio line brush set and this brush came with it. And I can't say anything but positive things about this brush. It's extremely inexpensive in comparison to high end stores and has the same quality. It is great for adding crease colour, blending and work on the outer v. The bristles are very soft and its a dense brush , I haven't experienced any shedding even after washing it a few time. Definitely a staple in my makeup kit.

text: Human exceptionalist thought has always been with us, in one form or another. But when Lear observes, "thou art the thing itself[;] unaccommodated man is no more but such a poor, bare, forked animal as thou art," each human specification he offers refers comparatively to the bodily forms and natural capacities of non-human animals. By drawing upon a natural history tradition that was dedicated to inventorying the diverse riches of animal forms, Lear's zoographic calculation of human estate proceeds in a strikingly privative mode; this humanity is defined negatively, by lack, rather than by the singularizing, positive attribute that typifies human exceptionalist accounts. Lear's unaccommodated man, then, is a negative exception to a pre-Cartesian, natural historical rule of animal integrity or "sovereignty." An intellectual archaeology of the zoographic resources of Lear's familiar lines suggests an antiexceptionalist tradition and evidences a historical vision of humankind placed in a wider, "zootopian" milieu. In assessing this vision, the reduced dualism of animal lack and human sovereignty that undergirds our habitual reference to a "human-animal divide" simply cannot be taken for granted, because a different cognizance of the varied presence of animal forms marked period thought indelibly.

No that is not a cocktail. Yes it is chilled soup served in a cocktail glass.
Have you had a chilled fruit soup before? You're going to fall in love. The first time I had a soup just like this one was at Barcelona in Columbus, OH; a fantastic Spanish restaurant with the best darn outdoor patio I've ever seen (here's a pic if you're curious). But even with the patio, the chilled peach soup was the highlight for me. I'd never had anything like it. It was cold, slightly sweet, fresh from ripe summer peaches and spicy – that good back-of-the-throat spicy you can only get from cayenne pepper. Nothing like it.
TIP: Peeling peaches – similar to peeling tomatoes. In order to remove the skin and not take any flesh with it, you have to boil them first. Scour an X in the bottom of each peach and drop into boiling water for just 1 minute. Start peeling from the X.
- 4 ripe Georgia peaches
- ½ cup dry sparkling wine (or dry white wine)
- ½ cup water
- 1-2 tablespoons agave nectar (based on sweetness of peaches)
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon + ¼ teaspoon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground all spice
- 2 pinches cayenne pepper
- Pinch fresh grated nutmeg
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- ¼ cup almond flour
- 1½ tablespoons brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Cut a small "X" through the bottom of each peach, then drop them into the water for 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer peaches to a bowl of ice water.
- While peaches cool, add sparkling wine, water, agave and spices (1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ginger, ¼ teaspoon all spice, pinches of cayenne and grated nutmeg) into a small pot. Heat over low heat until simmering. Remove from heat but leave in pot to allow all the flavors to come together.
- When peaches are cooled, peel starting from the "X" at the bottom of each peach. Discard skin, roughly chop and add to blender. Pour liquid into blender and puree until smooth. Taste for seasoning.
- Pour into a large bowl, cover with plastic wrap and allow to chill in the refrigerator until very cold, 4-5 hours, overnight if you have time.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, add almonds, flour and brown sugar. Mix to combine. Pour melted butter over mixture and stir until moistened. Break into small pieces onto a baking sheet. Bake until fragrant and slightly toasted, about 5 minutes.
- Serve soup chilled with 1 tablespoon almond crunch over top.

Are we the bad guys of Azeroth? {WoW}
Apr 2nd 2008 4:53PM it real simple, we have two camps 1 is for honorable level base PvP with no ganking no camping and basic chivalry.
the other a pro ganking side made up of 12 years old and there 40 year equivalents who have been bullied all there lives and now have finally found a way to do reverse that in real life.
broken down to reality thats all it is, well adjusted humans playing a game (non gankers) vs very badly maladjusted humand with severe ego problems (gankers)
And no amount of chest beating by the gankers will do anything but prove my point.
PvP I hate, but if you want it attack some thing that has a chance to fight back. rather than trying to build you broken ego ruin the fun other players. (and yes i rolled on a PVP server)
The Light and How to Swing It: Holy paladin gear enchants, part 1 {WoW}
Apr 2nd 2008 1:56PM Crits unreliable on boss fights? Long fights are were they average out and is were they are most reliable. A good balance of MP5 (around 60), high crit chance (27-30%) and the meta gem with chance for 300 mana on cast balance out to a very good constant stream of mana through the entire fight.
Forum post of the Day: The Death of PvP Guilds {WoW}
Mar 28th 2008 2:57PM a couple of way to keep the BG more interesting. 1) premades only fight premades, in other words put in some effort, it the whiners who started the threat that make the term "welfare epics" actaully have meaning. 2) if the above in not in place. Honor gains by pre mades are diminished by the number of people in the pre made. (example a 10 maid premade in WSG get it battle honor reduced by 50%) and it honor for honor kills reduced by 70%) when facing a 100% pug foe. The penalty would of course be reduce if the opposing force had pre made componenets itself. 3) or remove premades all togther, put everyone one an even footing and wacth the queues get shortere since the matches are x random toons vs x random toons
of course I think areana should be done the last way, no preset teams, just sign up for a bracket, you get randomly picked partners and go for it. it eleiminates all teh spot selling, and team selling and most other forms of cheating. it eleiminate team rating which means little anyway, and leaves only a personal rating, and to be the best it forces you to be teh best with all other classes as partners not just a specific few.

Mar 25th 2008 11:33AM aww, leave Voggz alone, He cant help that he he is a 12 year who never get out of his basement, because every time he does the local bullies stomp him into the ground. Of course he has no concept of honor or fair play, he has never actually scene it, and like the Bullies on the corner it makes him feel like a big man to kill people who cant fight back. Of course in reality it make him no better than the bullies he despises so much.
Breakfast Topic: The price of flight {WoW}
Mar 21st 2008 10:36AM Does the cost of an epic flier encourage gold buying? absolutely.
It all a matter of why people play the game. For some its the staus of having the mount (usually all done out in PVP epics).
For some it about maximizing return on time. But fro most I suspect it purely about having fun. The epic flier allows them more fun in the limited time the have to play, and the grind to build the gold reserves simply is not for for them.
when you have job the demands 60 hours a week as many salary jobs do, a family that requires there time too, and you end up playing a coupe hours at a time 2 or 3 nights a week, spending al the time grinding make wow just a second job and burn out and quiting playing real fast. During the few hours he has on, he want to run instances with his friends, maybe run a queat or two for gear or rep. The epic lets him do much more of that and waste for less of his limited time in transit. And so he spends what to him seems a small amount of real cash on the insanely large (to him) amount of gold for the simple purpose of maximizing the amount of fun he can have.
If i wanted to buy the gold i know the amount for an epic is well with in my standard entertainment budgest, and gives long lasting enjoyment rather than say going out the a fancy dinner fo the same cost.
Drysc reveals more about season 4 personal rating changes {WoW}
Mar 20th 2008 11:10AM I hate arena, i have hated arena from day one and i will always hate arena. They are called welfare epic because that is exactly what they are , You get rewarded for failing, time after time after time. You get rewarded fro cheating Time after Time after time.
Force arena to be based on winning rather than loosing and it might be a viable thing. Arena rating is fine, it will determine how many points the winning side gets base on the differance in the ratings. The loosing side get NOTHING!
Now people actually have to put in work for those epics.
But that will never happen as PvE get sent more and more the th back burner. Up till now If one wanted they could choose a PvE server and never do PvP. But with Wraith and entire zone will auto flag you for PVP even on a PvE server.
WOW is quickly becoming all about 12 year olds with ego problems and it will kill the game.
Breakfast Topic: Easy Mode {WoW}
Mar 20th 2008 10:45AM Sir, the issue you have is that many Hunters really are that bad due to having it so easy while leveling, they really do not understand the game or the total abilities of there class.
However if they will give a good hunter a chance to show off, they will find that any spec can have great utility to the raid. BM = massive dps and raid damage boost even through many boss special effects, MM = silence and attack power for the raid , Survival = the most versitle CC in the game.

Is Bioshock perfect game design?
This being out of the way, let me explain why (just in case you haven't read one of the million reviews that already say so). Some time ago, I wrote a blog post with my good friend Fabien Royer about what we consider to be the seven deadly sins of modern game design. We pointed out that even great games such as Gears of War or Oblivion always had at least one of these flaws. So how does Bioshock measure up against those (arbitrary) criteria?
Checkpoints: Bioshock has checkpoints, but they're not your (big) daddy's old checkpoints. They are non-destructive checkpoints. They don't affect your progression, they just respawn you at some specific point. This is absolutely brilliant as it never punishes the player for trying something new. In this game, you'll never have to redo the same boss fight a thousand times because you died a millisecond before the boss: the damage you inflicted persists even if you die. It all plays beautifully as the game's difficulty is very well-balanced (if a little on the easy side, even on the maximum difficulty level). While it's true that you could take down a Big Daddy with just the wrench if you're patient enough, it will take forever and you won't have as much fun as if you waited for him to step into gasoline and set him on fire after tricking security turrets into attacking him. I love how they put the responsibility of how fun the game is in the hands of the gamer: the game is just as fun as you make it.
Oh, and on top of that, you can save whenever you want.
So, yes, perfect and innovative checkpoint system. Bioshock, one point and a half for brilliant innovation. -
Boss fights: see above. Thanks to the brilliant checkpoint system, there is no boss that you have to fight more than once. You may die several times in the process of defeating him, but you don't have to redo the same thing over and over again. The great game mechanics also encourage the player to try a different approach if they fail: bosses don't have a single weak point, they are just stronger or weaker for different types of attacks, and there is always a large number of ways to kill them. Bioshock, one more point.
Mini-games: ouch, Bioshock almost lost a point here. There *is* a mini-game (hacking) and like most mini-games, it's disconnected from the main gameplay and not much fun at all. But it redeems itself by being entirely optional. If you don't like it, you have plenty of options to get the same results: you can buy your way around it, you can use an auto-hack tool that you built or found in the game or you can just do something else entirely and not attempt the hack (destroying the security device, paying full-price in vending machines, etc.). So, well, half a point here.
Cut-scenes and dialogue: the narration in Bioshock is absolutely brilliant both in contents and form. You learn about the background plot by finding recordings as in-game objects. These recordings play while you can continue playing so they never disrupt the rhythm of the game. There are also a few cut-scenes during which you can look around a la Half-Life, so it's not full interactivity but they are at least very well-integrated into the game. I never felt the urge to skip them so I don't even know if it's possible, but that's a good point: you don't want to skip them. And you don't have to watch them more than once because again of the brilliant checkpoint system. One point.
Reload times: the loading times in Bioshock are not especially short nor especially long, but again, the checkpoint system makes it so you won't have to endure them except when going to a new level or reloading a saved game (which you'll almost never do). So nothing exceptional here, but the generally great design of the gameplay makes it a minor inconvenience. One point.
Camera: it's an FPS, so you are and manage your own camera. One point. Oh, but wait, your senses in Bioshock actually go well beyond sight. The audio and noise localization is the best I've seen in any game. You'll usually hear the enemies before you see them, which really creates an incredibly immersive experience. You need 5:1 to enjoy the game at its full potential by the way. One point and a half.
Control scheme: it's ok. I've inadvertently injected myself EVE more than once because of some button overloading but it's nothing terrible. Half a point.
So all in all, where are we? Seven point! We have perfection! OK, I cheated a little and gave more than one point here, less than one there. But that's actually how this game is: it is so brilliantly put together that everything fits and the very few minor weaknesses it may have are made completely irrelevant by other design decisions. The checkpoint system is an example of a very simple innovation that is much farther reaching than it may appear at first.
This game is pure joy, it is art, and if you're old enough (it is also very violent, be warned) you'd do yourself and the industry a great favor by buying it. This game must be a hit because we want many others to imitate it...

Blog gets new title
I have to admit I've always been a little jealous of blogs that have cool titles or urls. I was also getting tired of the default Community Server skins, which are nice, but that I see a little too often on other people's blogs.
So here it is. I launched Photoshop, cooked up a background from a picture I had shot a few years ago of a cool pumpkin my wife had carved for Halloween. I also picked a title that I quite like and I hope you'll like it too.
So what do you think?

More than 80 volunteers from throughout the Puget Sound and as far away as Philadelphia and Los Angeles have traveled to Olympic National Park in the summers of 2010, 2011 and 2012 to participate in a long-awaited marmot monitoring program supported by donors to Washington's National Park Fund.
From late July through mid August 2010, volunteers learned about the Olympic Marmot and potential climate change threats to its habitat, 90 percent of which is within the boundaries of Olympic National Park. The "citizen scientists" then set out for 4 to 7 day trips with binoculars, GPS units, maps, and data sheets looking for marmots and marmot burrows, and recording their findings. Volunteers continued this research during the summers of 2011 and 2012, thanks to generous donors to Washington's National Park Fund.
Study results have enhanced the knowledge base of the connection between marmot ecology and climate change, and helped inform natural resource management decisions in the park.
"We ventured to places we wouldn't have been motivated to explore on our own," said volunteer Wendy Holcomb of Tacoma. "Our children enjoyed it and the terrain was spectacular! It was a great introduction to volunteering."
Park staff is pleased with the monitoring program's initial results, which prove consistent with earlier findings of population decline, and indicate that volunteers provided good data to work with.
See results from 2010 here: Marmot Monitoring 2010 Results. See resultes from 2011 here: Marmot Monitoring 2011 Results.See results from 2012 here: Marmot Monitoring 2012 Results.
Recruitment for the summer of 2013 will begin in the Spring of 2013. You can volunteer via Olympic National Park's website here.

Not an End, But a Beautiful Continuation - Wanderlust California!
I hope travels have been safe, and that along with your luggage, you are carrying with you the community and collective thought that IS Wanderlust. Its funny, and normal to leave such a beautiful gathering of like-minded people, and find yourself getting a little lost, and sucked into what is 'the stream'. The stream of energy held in our upper chest, thoughts jumbled up in our minds, and a drishti that is ultimately created through excessive thought in an exhausted mind. So while this Wanderlust experience is still fresh in our souls: let's create our own continuation of positive thought, beautiful energy, honest communication, and genuine love to all.
Having been planted in Minneapolis in my travels back to Maine, I noticed how the knowledge I've acquired was subject to this hectic Earth. This realization was similar to when you suddenly remember at 17 when your friend telling you that they had a Helicopter in their basement: light bulb goes off and you say, "Wait a minute...in a ranch house, that helicopter would have been a tight squeeze". Today, as I missed flights and started to get flighty myself, I said to myself, "Wait a minute...I am supposed to be experiencing this," breath and acknowledgement kicked in. And obviously I want to be home, and airports are a pain in the ass sometimes, but acknowledging it and moving forth is experiencing it positively. Easier to digest.
Thank you to all who taught, performed, volunteered, attended, prepared food, shared their art, shared them, laughed, and loved. This world is small, which is a blessed thing. You are all in my heart, and I feel so nourished from this experience. Follow your spirit, paint with all the colors of the wind, eat, pray, and love. I will leave you with one of my favorite philosphers in your transition to home-life: Winnie the Pooh: ""If the person you are talking to doesn't appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be that he has a small piece of fluff in his ear.â€

It's only poisonous if you eat it, and I think most people wash their hands if exposed to the sap, to be sure not to accidentally spread it to mouth or nose. A lot of house plants are poisonous. |

Quilt Exhibit: "Do You See What I See"
Featuring quilts by members of Rocky Mountain Wa Shonaji Quilt Guild
The exhibit showcases RMWSQG Members
The Rocky Mountain Wa Shonaji Quilt Guild was formed in February 1994 by Helen Kearney Thobhani. The five African American women who came together were interested in perpetuating the heritage of quilting and promoting fellowship among those in quilting. The Guild is committed to supporting and educating the community. To this end, the Guild offers exhibits, quilting classes, lectures and quilt documentation through its various programs during the year. The name Wa Shonaji comes from the Swahili language and means literally – "people who sew". The Guild's name reflects both our region of the United States and our cultural heritage. The members of RMWSQG, though predominantly of African-American ancestry, celebrate ethnic diversity in membership as well as in the many different patterns displayed in our quilts.

But with Alter Bridge and their new album, One Day Remains, three of the guys from Creed are defying the odds. On the yearning ''Open Your Eyes,'' Mark Tremonti steps out of his shell with some tasty guitar pyrotechnics. The group has a harder edge than Creed, and frontman Myles Kennedy's versatile wail takes even the disc's handful of plodding tracks, um, higher.

ELP's Carl Palmer: "Black Sabbath wanted me to replace Bill Ward"
Emerson, Lake and Palmer's Carl Palmer<.strong> has revealed that he turned the chance to become Black Sabbath's drummer when they reformed in 2011.
Palmer, who is also a member of Asia, said he was approached by guitarist Tony Iommi to join the band when they got back together two years ago after original drummer Bill Ward refused to come on board.
He told WENN: "Tony and I did talk when they were looking for drummers to make the album and he put me forward. I couldn't do it because I was off with Asia, we were touring and then something else came up. I couldn't have done it but I would have loved to. It just wasn't on the cards."
Palmer added: "I was classically trained but basically I'm a rock drummer and I've never been in a true out-and-out guitar band like Black Sabbath, where it's just big riffs - very simple but very dynamic. It would be extremely invigorating. The older I get the more I appreciate that music. I was late to come to heavy metal. Asia had a bit of that but we were a little bit more corporate rock and melodic."

Gotta Give The Peeps What They Need Deemed Too Controversial By Execs, Who Request Lyrics Be Deleted - MTV has censored the video to Public Enemy's new single, 'Gotta Give The Peeps What They Need,' refusing to play it until the band agrees to delete certain lyrics that the music network deems objectionable. According to an MTV executive, the lyrics in question are not foul language or misogynistic, but are actually a very brief political statement. As a result, MTV has asked the rap group to omit the word 'free' from the phrase 'free Mumia.' The lyrics refer to Mumia Abu-Jamal, an award-winning journalist and former Black Panther who is currently in prison after being convicted of killing a Philadelphia police officer. Abu-Jamal supporters, including Amnesty International, the California AFL-CIO, and the city council of Paris, France (who named him an honorary citizen) claim that he may in fact be innocent, as well as the victim of an unfair trial. Public Enemy stands by their lyrics, as well as their political position, and have declined to make the changes. 'I do art and songs to provoke and not to be a joke,' says founding member Chuck D. 'Gotta Give The Peeps What They Need' is the first single off of Public Enemy's new album, Revolverlution, and is currently a Top 10 hit at specialty radio. Known for their politically-charged lyrics, the group has always been singled out by the media, who say Revolverlution 'tackles topics old and new without missing a beat' (Los Angeles Times), and '...with the Middle East at war, the economy in turmoil and another Bush in the driver's seat, America once again needs its Public Enemy.' (Rolling Stone magazine). The video can be seen in its entirety at http://www.rapstation.com/rapstation_tv

Quoted from C_Sharp A number of Os do fermented vegies.
Quoted from yaeli The word 'ferment' doesn't appear in my SWAMI. May I consider fermented veggies neutral? Or are they recommended only for nonnies?
Quoted from tolondontoparis fermented veggies dont really taste the best to be honest, and aren't that accesible to a college student :/
Quoted from C_Sharp Both secretors and nonsecretors benefit from eating cultured vegetable products.
Quoted from Jane I take Dr. D's Polyflora for probiotics.Jane
Quoted from Conor Raw sauerkraut, compliant 'raw' aged cheese, red wine (moderate), umeboshi (the acidity of the pickled plum has a paradoxical alkalinizing effect on the body), eat salad herbs directly from my own garden that are only briefly water rinsed (to help include natural soil organisms in my diet), as well as eat chicory root and Jerusalem artichoke for the inherent inulin in both (inulin is a prebiotic, in that it helps nourish probiotic bacteria in one's body) ... and I don't really concern myself with it, otherwise, because our type seems to thrive without mega-doses of probiotics as long as we're eating foods that don't generate inflammation and such.
Quoted from tolondontoparis I wish kefir didn't have hormones and was compliant for Os, cause it's so delicious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But cooconut milk kefir is bad, and so is normal kefir.
Quoted from ruthiegirl Red wine for an 18yo isn't so accessable in NY where the drinking age is 21.tolondontoparis- are you living in a dorm room and eating cafeteria food, or do you have your own kitchen facilities?If you're eating cafeteria foods and living in a place without cooking space, then just do the best you can. You can't be fully compliant in that situation, so make the best choices you can and don't sweat the small stuff. If you can't find any compliant fermetned foods easily, you have two choices. You can choose to skip probiotic foods or eat fermented foods that are not 100% compliant, depending on how badly you react to the specific avoids and how much you feel the need for probiotics. OTOH, if you do have space to prepare foods, then you should learn how to ferment vegetables. There's a bit of a learning curve, but it's fairly easy to do once you get the hang of it. If you can't figure it out from online instructions, perhaps we can find a way to get together in person this summer, since I'm about a 40 minute drive from Stonybrook.
Quoted from ruthiegirl Red wine for an 18yo isn't so accessable in NY where the drinking age is 21.
Quoted from passionprincess I LOVED fermented celery (similar crunch to pickles) ...
Quoted from Victoria I think cultured vegetables is really a better description than fermented, because you aren't aiming for alcohol as the end-result.
