We concur with the recommendations of the Astronomy Survey
Committee for two moderate programs that are pertinent to spaceborne
studies of cosmic rays (see G. B. Field, chairman, Astronomy and Astro-
physics for the 1980's, Volume 1, National Academy Press, Washing-
ton, D.C., 19821. First, they recommended "an immediate and substan-
tial augmentation to the NASA Explorer satellite program,', and they
went on to note that "among the scientific areas that at present appear
to offer special promise for additional Explorer-class missions are the
following, . . . A study of the isotopic and elemental composition of
low-energy Galactic cosmic rays and solar energetic particles in the inter-
planetary medium." A1SO7 that report said, "The Astronomy Survey
Committee recommends a series of cosmic-ray experiments in space, to
promote the study of solar and stellar activity, the interstellar medium,
the origin of the elements, and violent solar and cosmic processes."
The report of the Cosmic-Ray Program Working Group (National
Aeronautics and Space Administration, 1982) and the supplement to
that report (National Aeronautics and Space Administration, 1985)
outline a program that will achieve these objectives of the Astronomy
Survey Committee and will take advantage of the opportunities de-
scribed in Chapter 17 in the section on Spaceborne Experiments. We
recommend implementation of this program as summarized below.
OCR for page 157
This recommended program includes two major new programs: (1)
development of a Superconducting Magnetic Spectrometer Facility for
the Space Station, which will permit "a series of cosmic-ray experi-
ments" as suggested by the second Astronomy Survey Committee
recommendation above, and (2) a Cosmic-Ray Composition Explorer
that is essentially the Explorer described in the first Astronomy Survey
Committee recommendation above. This program also includes other
recommendations that are important for the vitality of cosmic-ray
We note that there are a few active research groups in other
countries carrying on balloonborne and spaceflight cosmic-ray exper-
iments. In the past there has been international cooperation, with
complementary experiments from different countries on the same
spacecraft or cooperative international development of a single exper-
iment. We would expect this cooperation to continue in the future,
particularly with the development of the Superconducting Magnetic
Spectrometer Facility.
Major New Programs
As our highest priority, we recommend the development of a
Superconducting Magnetic Spectrometer Facility for the Space Station
capable of conducting a wide variety of measurements on the energetic
galactic particles above 1 GeV. The heart of the facility would be a
superconducting magnet and trajectory-defining detectors that would
have a maximum detectable rigidity of several thousand GV. Above
and below the magnet would be a variety of Cerenkov counters and
energy-loss detectors, with the individual ancillary detectors being
changed from time to time in order to optimize the detector configu-
ration for various scientific objectives.
This magnet facility would permit a series of significant cosmic-ray
observations. A search for antinuclei heavier than antiprotons would
be possible with the unprecedented sensitivity of 10-~; the detection of
even a small flux of heavy antinuclei would have a profound influence
on cosmology. The spectrum of antiprotons would be measured up to
about 1000 GeV, giving important information about cosmic-ray con-
finement in the Galaxy and conceivably displaying the signature of
exotic processes such as the annihilation of photinos. A significant
contribution of this facility would be measurement of isotopic compo-
sition with excellent statistics and mass resolution over an energy
range previously inaccessible to isotope resolution; these measure-
ments would provide important signatures of the nucleosynthesis of
OCR for page 157
cosmic rays and other matter and would give us radioactive clocks at
high Lorentz factor for probing time scales of cosmic-ray acceleration
and galactic confinement. The facility would permit measurements of
electron and positron spectra to about 1000 GeV, providing unique
clues concerning the distribution in the galaxy of sites of cosmic-ray
acceleration. The excellent momentum resolution of the magnet facility
would make possible the measurement of energy spectra of cosmic-ray
nuclei over a very wide energy region, from a few GeV/amu to several
hundred GeV/amu with unprecedented resolution, making possible a
sensitive search for spectral or temporal changes that could carry the
signature of individual sources of cosmic rays.
Also as a high priority we recommend an Explorer-class mission on
a spacecraft outside the magnetosphere to carry high-resolution exper-
iments to resolve the individual isotopes and elements of galactic
cosmic rays, solar energetic particles, and anomalous cosmic rays in
the energy region below 1 GeV/amu. Using established techniques,
these experiments would have sufficient mass resolution and collecting
power to determine the detailed isotopic composition and the energy
spectra of all elements up through atomic number 30, with exploratory
measurements of heavier nuclei.
This Explorer mission would provide a detailed comparison of the
elemental and isotopic structure of solar matter (from solar energetic
particles), local interstellar matter (which is believed to be the source
of the anomalous cosmic rays), and more distant galactic matter (which
is the source of the galactic cosmic rays), thereby adding new dimen-
sions to studies of the nucleosynthesis and subsequent evolution of both
galactic and solar-system matter. In addition it would allow particle
injection and acceleration processes to be studied on scales ranging from
in situ observations of interplanetary shock acceleration, to flare
acceleration on the Sun, to cosmic-ray acceleration in the galaxy.
Continuing Programs
An essential prerequisite for the major new programs described
above is the availability of frequent, relatively low-cost opportunities
for exposing new instruments to space. High-altitude balloons have
provided these opportunities for many years and are likely to continue
to be the best way to test new detector concepts, make modest
scientific advances, and educate graduate students. Similarly, if low-
cost, relatively fast turn-around opportunities can be developed for
attached instruments on the Space Shuttle, those will also prove
OCR for page 157
Continued tracking of the Pioneer and Voyager spacecraft and
near-earth IMP-8 will provide otherwise unattainable information
about the modulation of cosmic rays in the heliosphere. The cosmic-
ray experiment on Ulysses (formerly called the international Solar
Polar Mission) and the cosmic-ray experiment that has been selected
for the WIND spacecraft in the International Solar Terrestrial Program
will be valuable additions to this network and will make valuable
advances in our knowledge of cosmic-ray isotopes.
The Cosmic Ray Nuclei Experiment, which was successfully flown
on Spacelab-2 in August 1985, made important measurements of
cosmic-ray composition to a few TeV. Its upper energy is principally
limited by the low statistics imposed by its short (less than a week)
exposure. We endorse the NASA decision to fly this experiment again
on another Spacelab flight, and we strongly recommend placing this
instrument on the Space Station for at least a year. With such an
extended exposure it will be able to measure directly the cosmic-ray
composition at energies where ground-based observations suggest a
change of composition. Such a change is expected from some models
of cosmic-ray acceleration, and measurement of the composition at
these energies is important for testing these models.
We endorse the NASA decision to develop the Heavy Nuclei
Collector, a very-large-area plastic-track detector to be launched in
1987 on the Long Duration Exposure Facility. This experiment will be
capable of measuring actinide nuclei in the cosmic rays with high
enough resolution and statistics to use these radioactive elements to
measure the time scale since nucleosynthesis of the heavy cosmic
Interpretation of measurements of cosmic-ray composition depends
critically on knowledge of partial cross sections for spallation of heavy
nuclei in collision with the interstellar gas. A continued program of
measurement of such cross sections using the Bevalac heavy-ion
accelerator is essential.
We recommend continued support of theoretical investigations re-
lated to-particle astrophysics, including studies of shock acceleration
and of the interrelated problems of injection-acceleration-confinement

Or cosmic rays.
Studies for the Future
A number of important measurements have been proposed in
addition to those for which we have given high-priority recommenda-
tions above. Several of those deserve further study for possible im-
OCR for page 157
plementation during the last few years of this century and the beginning
of the next.
The Space Station will make possible assembly in space of very large
instruments. We can identify three such devices whose feasibility
should be studied: a high-energy array capable of measuring cosmic
rays to 10'6 eV, a large electronic detector capable of detecting
hundreds of the rarest actinide nuclei and determining their energy
spectra, and a spaceborne down-looking detector capable of observing
the atmospheric scintillation from air showers of the highest-energy
cosmic rays.
A study should be made of sending a new advanced set of instru-
mentation out of the heliosphere to measure a wide variety of interstel-
lar parameters at distances of at least 100 AU.
Polar-orbiting platforms are part of the plans for the Space Station.
Planning for these polar platforms should take into account the value of
high-inclination orbits for studies of cosmic rays at moderate energy.
Ground-based experiments are supported by the the National Sci-
ence Foundation (NSF) and the Department of Energy (DOE) and
consequently have not received attention by NASA panels and work-
ing groups. Major NSF programs such as the Fly's Eye have been
reviewed by the National Science Board as well as the normal referee
procedures and the NSF physics advisory committee. The DOE-
supported programs have been administered through the Division of
High Energy Physics. In 1982-1983 the DOE convened an ad hoc
advisory panel to advise it on experiments related to elementary-
particle physics not using high-energy particle accelerators. All the
DOE-supported programs have been reviewed by the Experimental
Technical Assessment Panel (ETAP). The recommendations articu-
lated here concur with the conclusions of ETAP and of the NSF
advisory structure in every instance where the questions have been
addressed. In response to increased activity in the field, DOE set up in
late 1985 a standing High Energy Physics Advisory Panel (HEPAP)
Subpanel on Non-Accelerator Particle Physics.
Most of the ground-based cosmic-ray experiments involve a group of
physicists, an equipment inventory, and a budget on the scale of a
typical experiment in particle physics in the external beam of a particle
accelerator; and many are carried out by high-energy physicists. The
total U.S. effort in the ground-based cosmic-ray experiments is much
less than 1 percent of the particle-physics budget.
OCR for page 157
This contrasts with programs directed toward similar physics ques-
tions abroad. The Soviet Union and Japan spend relatively a much
larger fraction of their effort here; and nations without high-energy
particle accelerators, such as India, Australia, and Brazil, also have a
relative commitment much greater than that of the United States. In
spite of their modest scale, the U.S. programs remain internationally
preeminent. It is appropriate that we continue to choose carefully the
experimental efforts in this area and to support them vigorously. It may
be noted that Japan, China, the Soviet Union, and South America have
quite extensive programs involving emulsion chambers and calorime-
ters at mountain observatories. In particular, the Soviet Union is
building a very ambitious mountain-top experiment in Armenia the
ANI. We do not recommend similar programs for the United States at
this time.
Gamma-Ray Astronomy
The observation of gamma rays of energies above 10~' eV through
ground-based observation of the Cerenkov light from air showers and
direct detection of electrons from larger air showers provides the
strongest evidence of discrete astronomical sources of acceleration
processes extending beyond 10'5 eV. Careful measurement of the
direction and time structure of such showers has revealed several such
sources, and the promise of further significant discoveries is very high.
In order to exploit this recently developed field an expanded effort in
utilizing existing detectors and in building new detectors is occurring.
· We recommend programs in gamma-ray astronomy as our highest
priority ground-based cosmic-ray observation.
Highest-Energy Cosmic Rays and Extensive Air Showers
The Fly's Eye Program is unique among experiments around the
world for studying cascades of 10~8 eV and higher energies, and it
serves as a focus for cosmic-ray research at the highest energies in the
United States.
· We recommend also as a very high priority continued support of
Fly's Eye and its improvements.
· We endorse studies of possible complementary surface detectors
such as muon counters and scintillation-counter air-shower detectors.
OCR for page 157
These could expand the value of the Fly's Eye observations and could
lead to new approaches to this energy region in the future.
High-Energy Neutrino Astronomy
As with gamma rays, neutrinos can provide in principle a line-of-
sight signal from energetic astronomical sources of cosmic rays,
penetrating regions that might be opaque to all electromagnetic radia-
tion. Unfortunately, this very penetration is also related to the signif-
icant difficulty and cost in detecting such neutrinos. Neutrino detectors
discussed, planned, and proposed include the MACRO detector in
Italy and DUMAND of Hawaii. The full-scale DUMAND detector
would be more expensive than any single ground-based experiment
discussed here, and there are serious enough questions concerning that
proposal to reserve judgment concerning its construction pending
results from the prototype. At the same time, the discoveries that
would result from a serious look at neutrinos of 10~2 eV and above from
astronomical sources would be exciting.
· We recommend that funding should be sought for neutrino astron-
omy detectors if their feasibility and cost-effectiveness can be clearly
Magnetic Monopoles
The search for these theoretically predicted, elusive, but fundamen-
tally significant particles should be continued and extended.
~ We suppport the construction of scintillation- or proportional-
counter detectors capable of at least reaching the Parker bound,
corresponding to at least a 1000-m' area.
· Larger flux-loop detectors of areas of the order of 100 m' should
be built, and searches for monopoles trapped in meteorites or magne-
tite should be extended.
Large Underground Detectors
The upgrading and expanded exploitation of these detectors should
be encouraged and supported. Justified and built to search for proton
decay, these detectors are also valuable for cosmic-ray studies. These
include the following:
OCR for page 157
· The study of neutrinos from the interaction of cosmic rays in the
atmosphere and the search for neutrino oscillations as evidence for
finite neutrino masses.
· The search for neutrino bursts from gravitational collapse of
supernovae and other astronomical sources of neutrinos below 1 TeV.
· The study of muons underground, especially when coupled with
surface air-shower arrays, in order to better understand primary
composition in the 10'3-10'6 eV energy region.
Solar Neutrinos
This problem, addressed by astronomers and particle physicists as
well, merits continued serious effort. We support the following:
· Construction of detectors for neutrinos of lower energy through
inverse beta decay, such as the proposed gallium experiment.
· Exploration of the feasibility of electronic detection of v-e scat-
tering in large underground detectors or other devices.
The theoretical calculation and modeling of various processes are
vitally important to continued progress in understanding cosmic-ray
physics. The major theoretical activities concern the following:
· Stellar and explosive processes leading to generation of cosmic-
ray nuclei and related photons and neutrinos.
· Acceleration mechanisms and propagation.
· Interactions and cascading of cosmic rays in the atmosphere and
in the interstellar medium.
New concepts and the synthesis of ideas can lead to breakthroughs
In our understanding quite out of proportion to the investment.

Im using a Samsung/Google Nexus S with the latest version of Android (2.3.4) applied.
Generally works very well, and Im very happy with it, but recently, seems to be small bugs which causes the application launcher to freeze. This means I cant swipe across the home screens to open up apps, and when I press the home key to get to the scroll of app icons this is either blank or takes a while to load. Is there a way to improve the performance and to avoid the system from freezing? All the apps still seems to work fine, so its not a major problem, just a bit annoying as I have to restart the handset regularly which is a bit annoying

Calling the Oklahoma River the premiere drag boat racing venue in the country, the National Drag Boat Association announced Tuesday that Oklahoma City will be its new home.
National Drag Boat Association will call Oklahoma City home
"The Oklahoma River, America's best liquid speedway, is just one reason that NDBA now calls Oklahoma City home," said Mike McAuliffe, president and chief executive officer of the NDBA and OKC Motorsports, which hosts events in several major cities.
The recessed Oklahoma River provides a natural wind screen for safer racing, as well as great viewing for race fans from start to finish, McAuliffe said.
"It's the perfect site for drag boat racing," McAuliffe said.
The low water dam system controls river levels and water flow, so there is little or no current to challenge the racers. The Chesapeake Tower is designed to handle all race operations, including television production, and there are plans to erect a windscreen the length of the racecourse on the south shoreline.
Stadium style lighting is currently being installed along the river and will offer the only lighted racecourse in the country for drag boat racing.
"The race teams also like Oklahoma City's central location, easy highway access, affordable hotels near the race site and the fact the site is in walking distance to the Bricktown Entertainment District," McAuliffe said.

I like the customer services,I have a problem to connected for WiFi they're sent some one right away.
Everything was great for me and my boyfriend stay thanks! :-)
I thought the layout of the room was nice.
I felt the walls were too thin. I can literally hear everything from people next door to above. I was able to hear my husband on a phone call outside walking towards our room.
comfortable and affordable, within short drive of Stanford University
people was kind.
only location was good, nothing except that.
Rooms were not clean, staff was helping and accommodating. We reached an hour earlier than our checking in time and staff was trying to fleece more money from us if we wanted to checkin early. They were unwilling for us to stay at the reception also.
Very convenient for where we needed to be.
Even though in the description it said continental breakfast there was only one type of cereal offered. The room was completely run down. We were expecting a tidy, simply furnished room. It was depressing to pay the $ amount for what we received.
There was no tissue to use. The designated spot for the tissue was empty and the front desk informed me that they were out. There was no blanket nor was the a regular blanket. The front desk informed me that there wasn't any comforters available but they had a scratchy old blanket that I could come get myself. The TV Was too low making it hard to watch tv in bed. Finally, the bed was horrible to sleep on.
Nice and clean rooms, front desk staff was very friendly, the dessert I ordered for in-room dining was superb.
This was by far the loudest hotel i have ever stayed at, there was no noise insulation! The staff was loud while cleaning the rooms, I could hear a party/loud music from the 2nd floor (I was on floor 6), the guests passing in the hallway were loud and obnoxious, all I heard most of the night was people yelling, hollering and screaming. Never again!
No breakfast included and elevators had water all over the floor from people drudging in from the pool area.
Nice happy hour and breakfast. Helpful and friendly staff
Area isnt the best Hotel a little dated.
Staff was very friendly, positive, and helpful. The rooms were spacious and clean. Internet was free as was their evening happy hour.
The lighting in the room was not conducive to working - it was too dim and too sparse.
This hotel is modern and clean.
Rooms are newly remodeled, clean, and staff are very accommodating despite the fact that they are still in the process of construction.
Staff and the rooms are very roomy.
Was put into a smoking room
This was our 4th time staying to attend a game at Levi Stadium we were very happy with the shuttle service.
We stayed in room 719 & there was an unusual amount of condensation which caused our clothes to smell moldly, we didn't smell it until we got home & unpacked, which makes us think that the rooms air quality is unhealthy. I'm still suffering from allergy problems a week later.
Everything. Full kitchen, would be nice if they had an oven like they do at the residence Inn.
Parking gets full

Barbara Park succumbed to cancer after a lengthy battle with the disease.
BARBARA Park, the American author of the bestselling Junie B. Jones series for children, has died at age 66 after a long battle against ovarian cancer, her publisher said on Monday.
Park's series about a funny kindergartener sold 55 million copies in North America alone and spent 180 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list.
"She died on Friday. She was at home in Scottsdale, Arizona," said Nicole Banholzer, an associate publicist for Random House children's books. "She was most famous for the Junie books. She did write a couple of picture books and middle-grade (books)," Banholzer added.
The Junie B. Jones stories, although big sellers, also drew criticism from parents for Junie's struggles with grammar and troublemaking. The series was one of the most banned and challenged books in the last decade.
Park, who was born in Mount Holly, New Jersey, had intended to teach history and political science to secondary school students but instead decided to try writing.
Her first book Operation Dump The Chump was published in 1982 after three rejections. She published more than 50 books, including the picture book Ma! There's Nothing To Do Here! to middle-grade novels such as Skinnybones, The Kid In The Red Jacket, and The Graduation Of Jake Moon. Park won numerous awards, including several Children's Choice Awards.
The author once said some people measure the value of a children's book in terms of moral lessons it tries to impose or role models it depicts, but she did not agree. "Personally, I happen to think that a book is of extraordinary value if it gives the reader nothing more than a smile or two. In fact, I happen to think that's huge," she said.
In addition to her books, Park, who battled cancer for more than seven years, founded the non-profit group, Sisters in Survival (SIS), with her husband Richard. SIS offers financial aid to women suffering from ovarian cancer and works with doctors and medical centres to provide medication and treatment.
Park was also a "wish" for dying children who wanted to meet her through the Make a Wish Foundation.
She is survived by her husband, two sons and two grandsons. – Reuters

Beginning from a height of 13,500 feet, thrill-seekers feel the ever-quickening pull of gravity for 60 seconds before a harnessed instructor deploys the parachute. Afterward, the tandem duo floats safely back to the ground while enjoying birds' eye views of the Philadelphia and Atlantic City skylines. This is a typical experience at Freefall Adventures, an organization that's been providing tandem jumps and skydiving lessons for more than 25 years. The team also works with professional videographers who can be hired to document the entire experience, including a pre-jump interview on the ground, the entire free fall, and the post-landing nap.
Skydive Maryland's team of experienced sky surfers has been escorting adrenaline seekers on 2-mile jumps since 1974. After a brief training session and couture-jump-suit fitting, adventurers fly to roughly 11,000 feet, where they barrel roll from the plane while strapped to a seasoned instructor. Exhilarating, 120-miles-per-hour free falls last for roughly one minute before the guides activate the parachute and jumpers coast through the atmosphere for 8–15 minutes, soaking in views of the Chesapeake Bay, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Baltimore skyline. Cloud cutters will receive before and after photos of their adventure to have proof of their extreme bravery and to earn respect from egotistical eagles. Skydives are available Saturdays and Sundays during the winter season, weather permitting.
It's not everyday you leap from an airplane two miles above the ground and soar through the air at speeds up to 120 miles per hour. Unless, of course, you're one of the seasoned skydiving instructors at Skydive OC.
Here, the team of fearless free-fallers introduce others to the thrill of the jump. Tandem skydives start with a brief training lesson to familiarize newbies with the free-fall position and teach them a few basic words in bird. From there, skydivers are strapped to an experienced instructor and spend several minutes watching other divers jump before boarding their plane. Once the proper altitude is reached, the only thing left to do is jump while the instructor takes care of the rest. After several minutes of adrenaline-boosting free fall, the parachute opens and slows both diver and instructor, allowing them to coast back to solid ground while taking in stunning views of the surrounding landscape.
Skydive trips allows both beginner and seasoned divers a comprehensive and safe way to engage in free falls. Tandem dives allow first-timers to experience the thrill of a jump without special training or prior knowledge of species of stomach butterflies, and training programs ready aficionados for solo falls. A staff with decades of combined experience ensures a safe diving experience with bona fide instruction and equipment. The facilities include both indoor and outdoor observation areas for friends and family, as well as a picnic area jumpers often put to use after they've completed their adventure.
Sportations connects amateur adrenaline jockeys to certified professional adventurers, drawing from a nationwide network of aeronauts and speed demons to introduce habitual pedestrians to the wonders of skydiving, ballooning, hang gliding, and stock-car racing. Thrill seekers can zipline across a forest canopy, hollering like Tarzan or taunting nearby birds until they agree to race. Helicopter tours ferry patrons skyward over landmarks and cityscapes, whereas paragliding adventures get up close and personal with blue skies and clouds. For most sports, Sportations accommodates groups of any size, from physics classes empirically proving gravity's existence to solo ballooning supervillains declaring dominion over all they see.
The airplanes of Skydive Philadelphia only offer one-way trips, and those journeys end at roughly about 14,000 feet. Strapped to their skydiving sherpas, participants exit the aircraft through the open door, free-falling to reach speeds up to 120 miles per hour. These tandem jumps are suited for beginner skydivers, and don't really require much in the way of training. More experienced skydivers can take advantage of the facilities, which include an indoor parachute packing area, observation zone, and discounted lift tickets that prove far cheaper than buying a lifetime supply of Fizzy Lifting Drink.

Pistol-wielding ad carry, base range 550
Basic Backstory: Edward is hired by criminals everywhere to come to the scene of any given crime and erase any and all potential incriminating evidence. He leaves a card upon each scene he "erases," and his acts may be linked to the person caitlyn is trying to track down. He always has his left hand in his pocket.
Trump Card is Edwards ultimate and will buff Edward's basic abilities when active, the trump card notes at the end of each spell indicate the buff that each spell recieves
Passive- Identify weakness
Every 3 seconds that an enemy stays within 2000 units of and in sight of Edward they receive a stacking "Weakness identified" debuff (cap 10 stacks) which lasts for 8 seconds. Edward deals 1/2/3 (level 1/8/15) additional damage per stack (cap 10/20/30) with his basic attacks to enemies afflicted with the Weakness identified debuff. Additionally, Edward gains 10% armor penetration against enemies with 10 stacks of Weakness Identified.
Q- Blood Empowered Bullet
After a brief windup, fires a bullet that deals 60/95/130/165/200 (+.7 bonus ad) damage to each target struck, dealing 15% increased damage for each unit it passes through. (caps at 45%)
Trump Card- This Ability can be cast a second time within 3 seconds, and Edward can now move during the wind-up
Range- 1100
Cooldown- 8 seconds.
W- Point blank
Edward strikes his target at a pressure point, stunning the target for 1/1.25/1.5/1.75/2 seconds and applying 2 stacks of Weakness Identified. Afterwards the enemy remains disoriented, being slowed for 60% that dissipates over the same duration.
Trump Card- Applies 4 stacks of Weakness Identified instead, and the target is now stunned 75% of the total cc duration and slowed for 25% of the remaining duration.
Active cast range- 125
Cooldown- 20/17/14/11/8 seconds
E- Taking Aim!
Edward rapidly repositions himself to line up a good shot. He dashes a short distance and roots himself for 2 seconds or until he attacks. His next basic attack deals 40/45/50/55/60% bonus damage and applies two stacks of Weakness Identified on-hit.
Taking Aim! can be cast again while rooted to cancel the aimed shot, but will have a longer cooldown.
Trump Card- Edward will fire two bullets instead of one, dealing multiplicative damage between the ultimate buff and the Taking Aim! Buff, and applying double the Weakness Identified stacks indicated.
Dash range- 400
Cooldown- 7/6.5/6/5.5/5 seconds, 12/11/10/9/8 If canceled.
R-Trump Card
Edward Pulls out a second gun and uses it in his left hand. For the next 9/10/11 seconds, his abilities will have an additional effect, and his auto-attacks will be split into two attacks, each dealing 55/60/65% damage and applying their own on-hit effects. Additionally, he gains access to Perfect Execution.
R-Perfect Execution.
Edward leaps onto the shoulders of a target champion, immobilizing and silencing them for 1 second, and then shoots them at point blank, dealing 100/200/300 (+.75 ad) physical damage + 15/17.5/20% of the target's missing health. this damage is increased by 10% for each stack of weakness Identified on the opponent, up to 100%. Edward leaps towards the location of the cursor after shooting, and if he lands on another enemy champion (think hop mechanics, he casts this spell again.
Cooldown- 80 seconds.
On Champion Select: "I will lie to you."
"So where are we going?"
"Anti-Detective Edward is on the case."
"As long as no one finds out."
"She ain't got nothin' on me." (May be referring to Caitlyn)
"They won't know what hit 'em"
"Is that the truth you want to believe?"
"Time to move."
"Okay." (These two statements are references to Naoto Shirogane's dialogue from Persona 4 Arena, who this champion is inspired by."
"Hit em where it hurts."
"It's all just misdirection."
"Let's talk."
"There's no escape."
"Time to pick up the pieces."
"Playing cleanup again?"
"Watch carefully."
On casting "Taking Aim!"
"Takin' aim!"
"Closing in."
"There we go."
On Casting Trump Card:
"Did ya see this one coming?"
"Surprise! I'm left handed."
"Time for the grand finale."
On Casting Perfect Exection:
"Fare thee well."
"Say hello to my family for me."
If Edward lands on 5 targets using Perfect Execution:
"This is the last one."
"Wait for it..."
"It's the end of the hour."
Taunt (Edward casually points his gun forward, and then fires after a 1.25 second pause)
"Don't blink. Ya might not open your eyes."
"You don't know a thing. And now you never will."
"I'm not lying this time. I'm gonna kill you."
Note: this bullet will actually be a skill shot that has 800 range and will deal 1 true damage to the first target hit. Will not cancel recalls.
Taunting Twisted Fate.
"Fate? Oh please."
Taunting Caitlyn.
"I bet you could make a deck with all the cards I've given you."
"What's my name, Cait? Hah, thought so."
Taunting Vi.
"Fat hands seem pretty easy to slip through."
Joke (Edward pulls out his second gun and starts juggling them, he drops one and it goes off, causing him to jump back and drop the other, making him "dance")
"... took me years to perfect thi- Augh!... juuust kidding."
"... Get ready to danc- Augh!... never mind."

Comments about Jeff Banks JB024 Brown:
I love the frames 100%. As for the lenses, I have been wearing them for a week (high index 1.67) and I thus far have no complaints. My eyes adjusted easily and they seem to be clear and perfect to the prescription. A little time will tell to see if the lenses are as good as I believe, but in regards to the frames... I definitely love those. Very comfortable and stylish!

Several months ago, I was binge-watching videos on YouTube when I came across a vlog by Lily Pebbles. She vlogged her experience on creating her bespoke perfume at a perfume atelier in London and I thought to myself, "I wonder if there are any perfumaries in Melbourne that feature bespoke perfumes?" After a quick search on Google, I discovered Fleurage Perfume Atelier. It was located at South Melbourne which is really near the Melbourne CBD. I had a feeling the experience is best shared with a girlfriend and I asked LeGeeque if she wanted to come along as well. LeGeeque adores perfume and very quickly (and enthusiastically too, I might add!) said yes.
Our appointment was made and we waited in anticipation for the day to come. Now, I had no idea what it would be like at Fleurage since I've never heard of the place before. However, the reviews online were good and the photos were even better so I figured we'll be all right.
It was more than all right. It was a bloody amazing experience.

Lil' Lucha Virulento
The unbeatable fearless lucha libre wrestler Dr. Virus refused to step down to the threats of the Goono mob boss Salamandriss, who ordered him to give away his title to his puny sniveling son Moocho or else. Dr. Virus was never one to walk away from a challenge, let alone give it to some loser mob boss' son in a fixed match. Immediately after Dr. Virus defeated Moocho, he was abducted and thrown into the radioactive pits of Olar Valley. This wasn't the end of Dr. Virus, soon after Salamandriss' goons left Dr. Virus' "death site" he emerged, although not as his humanly self, but as VIRULENTO!
The Lil' Lucha Virulentos will be on sale May 31st at 2:00 pm (EST) in my store for $20 a piece plus s&h. gorillamouth.bigcartel.com/

Damac's Paramount project ready for construction
Dubai developer awards AED1 billion contract to Turkish firm
September 8, 2013 4:44 by Muhammad Aldalou
Luxury developer Damac Properties has granted a AED1 billion construction contract for its newly launched Paramount towers – a Hollywood-themed luxury hotel and serviced residences.
The 33-month long contract was awarded to the Dubai branch of Turkish firm TAV Tepe Afken Investment construction and operations, and it is the largest single contract the Dubai-based developer has awarded.
Enabling work has been completed onsite and it is ready for the main contractor to start the construction work, according to a statement by Damac.
The 'Damac Towers by Paramount' project consists of four Hollywood-themed towers built around the Burj Khalifa, which are expected to be completed by 2015.
The four towers are brought together with a multi-level plaza, offering a wide selection of food and beverage concepts, meeting and events facilities, a screening room, wellness and fitness centres, swimming pools, kids clubs, retail, and merchandise.
Each tower will stretch 250 metres into the air, and one tower will comprise the Paramount Hotel and Residences with the remaining three towers housing the Damac Maison – Paramount co-branded serviced hotel residences.
The project was announced back in March, with the first phase sold out on its opening day. Within seven weeks, the developer announced sales of more than AED1 billion, selling more than 40 per cent of the project in less than two months.
Speaking to Niall McLoughlin, senior VP at Damac at the time of the announcement, he said that the market is too segmented, and using one statement to label Dubai's real estate sector is wrong.
"The really important thing to remember here is that over the past year, there has been a 20 per cent hike in value of luxury products in luxury locations and that projects associated with luxury brands create 60 per cent more value than non-branded ones in the same area," McLoughlin says.
Damac Properties has completed 8,887 units to date and has a further 21,175 units at various stages of progress across the Middle East.

Highway system | ||||
Interstate 194 (I-194) is a three-mile (5 km) long, north–south freeway between downtown Battle Creek and I-94 in the southern portion of the city. The highway has been locally designated the Sojourner Truth Downtown Parkway after the abolitionist Sojourner Truth, who was active in the Battle Creek area. Locals refer to the freeway by its semi-official nickname,"The Penetrator". I-194 is the only three-digit spur or loop route off I-94 in the state of Michigan and coincides throughout its length with M-66, which continues both north and south from the termini of I-194. The freeway was built in 1961 and completed in its current form in 1966. The highway was named in 1976 for Truth in honor of her local connections to the area.
Route description[edit]
Part of the much longer highway, I-194 starts when M-66 widens out to a full freeway just south of I-94 near Beckley Road. The start of I-194 is marked by the full cloverleaf interchange. It is numbered as exit 98 along I-94 and exit 1 using I-194's mileage along the I-194/M-66 freeway. The roadway crosses Minges Creek north of the I-94 interchange. To the west of the freeway are residential subdivisions; the eastern side is marked by gently-rolling, wooded terrain.[4] This section of I-194 carries 26,300 vehicles on an average day according to annual average daily traffic surveys done by the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) in 2007.[5] Of these vehicles, 1,200 trucks were included in the totals.[6]
After crossing Golden Avenue, I-194 curves to the northwest to meet the M-96 (Columbia Avenue) interchange. The freeway runs underneath the Columbia Avenue overpass before running parallel to the west bank of the Kalamazoo River. The freeway crosses the river at the southern end of Lower Mill Pond. Curving back around to the northeast, I-194 meets Business Loop I-94 (BL I-94, Dickman Road).[4] Here the AADT counts average 24,400 vehicles a day.[5] The freeway ends at an at-grade intersection with Hamblin Avenue, and continuing north of the intersection, the highway becomes just M-66. BL I-94 runs east of the freeway end on Hamblin Avenue to connect to Michigan Avenue.[4] All of I-194 is listed on the National Highway System, a system of strategically important highways,[7] and it is concurrent with M-66 for the length of the freeway.[8]
From its inception in 1961[1][2] until 1964,[9] I-194 also carried the BL I-94 and M-78 designations. BL I-94 was rerouted in Battle Creek to Martin Luther King Drive and M-78 in 1964, and M-78 was replaced by M-66 in 1965.[10] The last change to the I-194 routing was the extension of the northern end of the freeway from Columbia Avenue to Michigan Avenue in 1966.[11] At the time, MDOT's predecessor, the Michigan State Highway Department, called all auxiliary Interstate Highways "Penetrator" when planning the freeway network in the state;[12] a name which stuck to I-194.[13]
Born Isabella Baumfree in 1797, Sojourner Truth settled in the Battle Creek area in the 1840s. She travelled through the Midwest and New England speaking against slavery and for women's rights. She lived in the area until her death in 1883. Her connection to the state of Michigan was honored by the state American Revolution Bicentennial Commission in 1976 which urged the Michigan Legislature to name a highway in her honor.[14] Public Act 93 of 1976 named all of M-66 in Calhoun County as the Sojourner Truth Memorial Highway. The highway was dedicated to her on May 21, 1976.[14]
The Cereal City Development Corporation (CCDC) asked the Legislature to amend the memorial designation in 1993. They felt the highway was better known to locals as The Penetrator, and they wished to restore emphasis to Truth, they asked for the "Sojourner Truth Downtown Parkway" name to be applied to "M-66 between Interstate 94 and Hamblin".[14] The Legislature passed Public Act 208 of 1993 to affect the change, restoring "the link between Sojourner Truth and the City of Battle Creek, which was once the center of abolitionist sentiment in the state."[14]
Exit list[edit]
