Well, just logged in to see 350 rp. I did not buy these points, so I was wondering if it might've gotten there by mistake? Some sort of free promo or something? I'm in dire need of assistance!
The anouncements forum is your friend :P http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board...d.php?t=660558

shoot i didnt get any
If you had logged into the game in the last month, you will eventually get it. They just need time to get it to everyone.
There are sites like gaminglagoon or rewards1 or prize rebel all you do is fill out ads with fake info and get online points which you can then trade for a league of legends gaming card. My strategy to doing these quickly is following these simple steps. Though before you start it would be great if you helped me out by signing up as one of my referrals. That way each time you get paid a quarter I also get paid a dime. http://www.prizeXXXrebel.com/index.php?r=3403073 (without XXX) 1. Use firefox 3.6 2. Get the addon Fizix's pointgainer at http://brenhein.org/labs/rebel 3.Download Roboform 4.Get "Just Say No script for greasemonkey. http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/103930 5.Sign up using your real email so you can get prizes...but fill out roboform with fake emails from 10minutemail.com so you dont get spammed to death. After that your only job left is to pretty much click next and the forms fill themselves out So thats my secret right there. No jokes. No Scams. REAL league of legends cards. It took me 2 hours the first time I did it to get a LoL card. Note:Banner ad offers are fastest Note:When doing download offers use VirtualBox so you dont get adware
Ebay Account
I didn't get mine yet
I didn't get any either. But I suspect the reason for it is that the link in the second post on this thread was posted a few months ago, so most of us new to the game missed that downtime and RP compensation. No big deal. I'd rather have uptime and good server performance.
Obviously the heavily downvoted message is spam. Please ignore it unless you are really into getting viruses on your computer.
it worked for me and it didnt mess up my computer
Emissary of the League
That you know of. IMO, there's no reason to trust sites like this.

Philae Lander as it will look as it departs Rosetta for the landing. Picture: European Space Agency |
You can watch the separation coverage from the ESA mission control room here:
If you would like to follow the technical details more closely, there is a very good forum on NASA Spaceflight.
Rosetta was launched in March 2004, and journeyed for 10 years to rendezvous with Comet 67P in August this year. It then proceeded to photograph and map the comet in the search for a good landing site.
There's much more your can read about the mission on ESA's Rosetta website.
As I am about to post this, the Philae lander should have separated from Rosetta. We have to wait about 28 minutes before we will receive the corresponding transmission.

I'd like to do them in soil rather than in glasses, so I can plant them outside the following summer. Ideally, clay pots, because that is what I have.
Would an attached garage be too cold to keep them in for the cold storage period? Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Very cool dark conditions for at least eight weeks. Maximum 45F. Plant in moist compost but not soggy. Check weekly and keep just moist. If it's above freezing the mix could stay damp for weeks. You can plant them singly in 3.5" pots for the chill time then pot on when they put their noses up. You could group them closely - 3-4 in a six inch pot or give them more generous growing room. Up to you. They do produce generous roots and it doesn't take long to fill a pot. Either add one of those leaf holder rings or pop in a stake at this time so you can stop the flop. Bring them out into more light but not full sun while the leaves green up. Move into full sun for flowering - otherwise the stems start to stretch and lean. No heat until the total flower bud is clear of the neck of the bulb but you can feed them with houseplant food until the buds are at the point of flowering. Stop then and wait until the flowers have finished before adding any more. Cut off the flower stalk and let the bulbs finish naturally. Don't know whether this is a 'best' way. I usually put about three bulbs to a 9" pot when I'm using fresh-bought bulbs because they hurl themselves into flourishes of leaves and big heads of flowers. Once that's happened they go out into the garden and flower more sedately the following year. |
Thanks! That doesn't sound too hard. And my garage is dark, with no windows. I can start them near the big door to be colder, then move them closer to the house door to be a little warmer after it gets really cold outside here. What is a leaf holder ring? I have garden stem holders I use for my lilies but the shortest is 20", like a metal stake with a spiral on the end. What does a leaf holder look like? I might be able to make one. Is there any strategy I can use to get a succession of bloom? Like 3 pots worth? One starting when the first is finishing? |
Down here, when forced bulbs are sold there is a plastic attachment that slips up over the pot, is held by the rim of the plastic pot, and has another ring that rises about four inches above the rim. If someone at your house has access to a vice and some pliers or grips, plus some soft galvanised wire, they could make you a hoop with a spike to go into the pot. Succession. Hmm. In the garden the various Hyacinths come out in sequence, for sure. You could try staggering the planting but I suspect the parentage would have the greater influence. Not sure, though. Worth an experiment perhaps? |
As it happens the hyacinths I bought are all the same, Lady Darcy. It was the only color left. If there had been multiple colors I would have bought 3 and planted one of each color in each pot. Maybe if I vary the dates I bring them in from the cold that will work. I looked up this variety when I got home and found it is an heirloom and considered one of the best for forcing! How's that for luck! I have both tools and wire. I will make something, now that I know what the supports are supposed to look like. Sounds like a simple loop on a straight piece will work. Thanks so much for all your help. |

The '90s boy band, now a little older, aims to tap the chain's key demographic.
From left, Nick Carter, Brian Littrell, A.J. McClean and Howie Dorough of the Backstreet Boys performed last summer in Minneapolis.
Gap Inc.'s Old Navy, the retailer's biggest brand, has used 1990s stars from "Beverly Hills 90210" and New Kids on the Block in revamped marketing this year. Its latest addition is the Backstreet Boys.
The pop group will play at a free runway show Friday in New York's Bryant Park, Old Navy's first event during Fashion Week, and will feature them in commercials starting Sept. 19, said Michelle DeMartini, its head of adult merchandising and brand licensing. The unit's sales are up in 2012, after sliding 4 percent to $5.67 billion in the year ended Jan. 28.
"Our target customer grew up in the '90s, and that time period conjures an emotional connection," DeMartini said in an e-mail. "In recent campaigns, we've worked with a number of actors and musicians who remind her of that nostalgic decade, such as Mr. T and Jordan Knight, and we've gotten really positive feedback."
Old Navy's use of nostalgia to connect with its core customer of 25- to 35-year-old women is a part of its new marketing platform implemented in November, and has included ads with Jennie Garth of "Beverly Hills 90210," and Knight of New Kids on the Block. The brand, which accounts for about 39 percent of Gap's revenue, changed course after confusing customers last year with original songs and music videos in its "Old Navy Records" campaign.
The event Friday will showcase shoppers modeling Old Navy's Rockstar jeans to highlight their universal fit and the brand's inclusiveness, while commercials for the jeans will feature the hit single "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)" by the Backstreet Boys, DeMartini said.
"The Backstreet Boys are an iconic band beloved by our customers, and there's a certain magic to how their reunion tour coincided with our campaign for the Rockstar jeans," DeMartini said.
Gap, based in San Francisco, has surged 92 percent this year through Wednesday as sales in the U.S. have advanced, including a 4 percent increase for Old Navy, its most affordable, family-friendly division.

No matter whether you are a amateur or specialist traveler, there are a lot of considerations any traveler have to make. Luckily, you will uncover that it is much easier to go on a trip and travel if you know what to anticipate and you have an concept of where to get started. This report is filled with beneficial tips on touring and planning.
Preparing forward is essential for any excursion, but specially important if you are traveling by air. Major airports can be difficult to get to due to the fact of lengthy visitors delays. Be packed and all set the evening just before. Total and execute all of your ideas properly in progress of your flight. With excellent planning, you are sure to make your flight and not have to fear about missing it.
Consider to acquire tickets to amusement parks in advance so that you could print them out. The extended traces and wait around times you can steer clear of make a support payment for this method nicely really worth the money. Also, examine to see if the attraction offers timed entry, as these can allow you to skip strains inside the park as properly.
When preparing a flight and looking for the lowest rates, make sure you verify the official web site for every single airline that has flights to your location. Despite the fact that some web sites offer low charges, there might not in fact be a flight to that precise spot.
The cost for every unit for these conveniently sized products is disproportionate when compared to the amount of area that you help save. Fold your clothes with a much more effective technique when you are packing them. This will help you in your quest to get some more space in your bags.
Planning a journey can be challenging for many people. By using all the sources you have offered, journey planning can be considerably less complicated. If you follow the tips from this report, you will be ready to make straightforward and stress-free of charge travel ideas.

In 1999, agriculture in the Mekong Delta accounted for 30 percent of Vietnam's GDP and more than 80 percent of its rice exports. However, without appropriate infrastructure, the delta's many canals and irrigation networks were vulnerable to salt water intrusion from the South China Sea during the dry season, threatening land arability, and to flooding during the rainy season, putting harvests in danger. Poor drinking water supplies and inadequate rural transport also held down production levels and rural incomes.
The IDA supported Mekong Delta Water Resources Project sought to develop water control infrastructure to prevent salinity intrusion and promote irrigation, drainage, flood protection and improved rural drinking water supplies. Five subproject areas covering more than 500,000 hectares were targeted to boost agricultural productivity and rural incomes.
Freshwater supplies for irrigation were substantially improved along with the ability to control salinity and floods in the delta.Highlights:- About 1 million people were expected to benefit from project expansion of clean water supplies and improvements in sanitation facilities, with the connection rate to potable water sources increasing from 30–40 percent of the population living in the delta in 1999 to 75 percent at the end of 2007.- Farmers' incomes doubled on average between 1999 and 2007, from VND 300,000 (less than US$500) to VND 625,000 (about US$1,000).- Crop productivity has risen, with the average yield for double rice cropping increasing from 4.7 tons/hectare in 1999 to 5.3 tons/hectare in 2007.- Sluice gates have helped contain seasonal floods to allow farmers to complete their harvest. Forty-one main sluice gates and 125 secondary sluice gates have been built. Over 1,000 kilometers of primary and secondary canals were also dredged and enlarged.- To protect towns from floods, 234 kilometers of dikes were constructed.- The delta is now better prepared to withstand rising sea levels and catastrophic weather.- The doubling of water fee collections envisaged by the project did not occur: a government decree has exempted all farmers and individuals from paying water fees since January 2008.
- An IDA credit of US$102 million financed a bit more than two-thirds of the total project cost of US$148 million.- Regular supervision and meetings with local authorities helped accelerate the process of land acquisition for, and the resettlement of households affected by, construction of new infrastructure.
During project implementation AusAid provided a technical assistance grant of about $US300, 000 for a study of delta-wide water resource management. Recommendations from this research on new institutional reforms to improve agricultural water use are being considered by the government.
- The project's impact will be sustained, provided proper attention is paid to operation and maintenance of infrastructure. Because of the decision to exempt farmers from water service fees, heavy subsidies will be needed to maintain the newly created infrastructure. On the other hand, farmers whose livelihoods depend on irrigation and drainage are likely to continue to use the new facilities effectively.- Further investments in sea dikes and sluices could help the delta cope with the effects of climate change (droughts, floods and rising sea levels).- Investment in agricultural processing, marketing and information technology could help maximize the impact of irrigation infrastructure.

Bow Brand Gut for POG OS
Hi! I noticed that "Bow Brand Championship Natural Gut" strings are shorter - 37.5 (not 40 as usually). So, I am wondering is it enought for POG OS racquet? Does somebody has experience?
The POG OS takes 18' for the mains and 18' for the crosses, so you should have plenty of string.

I go to a Doctors office every morning to pick up some papers to deliver, every day I am told by a particular African American male whom seems like he's under the influence of drugs to, "Meet me out in the parking lot.." I simply shrug my shoulders at him and respond, "That will be the last mistake you'll ever make..". Gladly this individual has not forced me, because I do currently have I CWP and carry a .45 that I normally keep in the glove compartment. The establishment doesn't implicate anywhere that firearms are not allowed inside and I would like to be better protected from this thug scum.
I guess my question is, if I was ever approached in a hostile demeanor by this individual what would be the steps I should take in dealing with the situation without putting a hole in his kneecap?

Group: SKF
Cylindrical roller bearing
SKF Magnetic Bearings
Rolling element:
cylindrical roller
SKF has come up with an innovative range of cylindrical roller bearings that come in variety of sizes, designs, and specifications. Most of these cylindrical roller bearings are in mono-ow and equipped with a cage.
There are options of single row and double row that completely attunes the bearings that are without cage. These bearings complement the SKF standard meant for generic engineering tasks. Those bearings that have a cage can successfully make room for heavy radial loads with ability to work at rapid speed. There are fully complemented bearings also that are suggested for heavyweight radial loads operational at medium speeds.
One of the key and critical components of SKF cylindrical roller bearings are their roller bearings. The stress distributions takes place in a optimum way because of their logarithmic profile.
The formation of lubricant sheen is maximum due to its excellent surface finish and the motion of rolling is also at its best. This brings reliability, precision and zero tolerance to misalignment.

For the outdoor sportsman, there are few better places to be in North America than right here in Utah. Thanks to careful state management, Utah is filled with healthy, thriving populations of wildlife-from big game, to game birds, to fresh water fish. Here, there's always a trophy (and a great story) just waiting for you.
Species hunted in Utah are mule deer, elk, antelope, pheasant, ducks, geese, sage grouse, forest grouse, chukar partridge, mourning dove, and wild turkey. A limited number of black bear, bison and mountain lion hunting permits are also issued.
Hunting is allowed on most public lands in the state, except in national parks and monuments and state parks (with exceptions). Check with the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources for regulations and seasons.
Licenses are available through Utah Wildlife Resources offices, most sporting goods stores in the state, and on-line at www.wildlife.utah.gov.

US heading into major urban assault in Iraq
More than 10,000 US forces are poised to attack and occupy the rebel operations base.
Dust-coated US forces are encircling the Iraqi rebel stronghold of Fallujah, awaiting final assault orders, as insurgents dramatically escalated their own attacks elsewhere in the Sunni triangle over the weekend, leaving more than 50 dead.
American aircraft and artillery bombarded targets in Fallujah as US commanders prepared for a major urban conflict that they compare in scope to the costly but victorious 1968 Vietnam battle for Hue City.
"This town is held by mugs, thugs, murderers, and terrorists," Lt. Gen. John Sattler, commander of the 1st Marine Expeditionary Unit, shouted to marines at a staging ground Sunday. "You know what your mission is. Go out there and get it done."
To deal with the stiffening rebellion - and an expected surge of attacks if US troops storm Fallujah - Iraq's Interim Prime Minister Iyad Allawi Sunday declared martial law for 60 days across much of the country.
More than 10,000 US troops are poised for the Fallujah fight. US intelligence estimates that up to 3,000 insurgents - with a core of several hundred well-trained foreign fighters waging an anti-American jihad, and led by Al Qaeda affiliate Abu Musab al- Zarqawi - have prepared layers of booby-trapped defenses that make heavy use of suicide car bombs and even entire buildings rigged to explode.
Six battalions of US Marines, backed up by Army tanks and armor and newly trained Iraqi troops, sealed off Fallujah at midday Sunday. Leaflets dropped in the city warned residents to leave by then, if they were to avoid the fight.
"This is the Hue City of our generation," says Lt. Col. Michael Ramos, commander of the 1st Battalion, 3rd Marines, which is expected to play a key role in Fallujah. In Hue in 1968, heavily outnumbered marines reversed one of the North Vietnamese gains, reclaiming the city block by block, in four weeks of combat that left more than 142 marines dead.
"My marines, once they are unleashed, will bring a decisive victory and closure to [the Fallujah] operation," says Colonel Ramos, from Dallas, Texas. "We will be deliberate in our violence against the terrorists and insurgents, and we will be deliberate in our mercy to Iraqi civilians and the innocent."

We've all known for a couple of days or more than NW OK was going to have some wintery precipitation late this week.. For other areas it has been more of a watch-and-see-what-develops type situation. Well for NE OK, it looks like ice may develop. If you live in that area, I hope you are prepared. About 90 minutes ago, NWS-Tulsa issued an Ice Storm Warning that includes a significant number of counties in northeastern OK. This replaces the earlier Winter Storm Watch. I've linked the text of it below. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Text of Ice Storm Warning from NWS-Tulsa

We're already frozen in Payne Co. Just need some type of precipitation. Ugh |
- Posted by soonergrandmom Z6 Grove (My Page) on Fri, Dec 20, 13 at 21:42
We have had very light rain for about an hour and a half, and our temp is somewhere between 29 and 32 depending on which convenience store...oh no....which station you watch. |
Most of y'all stand a better chance of getting something frozen than we do, but even we have an Ice Storm Warning as far south as we are. I was expecting it. From the moment they first said we'd stay above freezing (this morning our forecast low for tonight still was showing 37 degrees) and would have only rain, I said "Uh oh. We're gonna freeze and get freezing rain and sleet." Lately it seems like we get the opposite of what the models show for us, so I was prepared for ice. : ) After our temperature dropped to 34 or 35 degrees, they then lowered our forecast low to 35. Currently we are sitting here at 31 degrees (and I haven't even looked to see if they lowered the forecast low again to keep up with the plunging actual air temps) and a light rain/fog/mist that is not yet freezing. It is possible we have a warm layer of air aloft a few thousand feet that is preventing our moisture from falling frozen. I'm not complaining if that is the case. I've been following the radar, storm chaser reports and Live Wire reports and all I can say is that I hope none of y'all have to travel over the river and through the woods to grandmother's house the next couple of days because it is likely to be icy or snowy or both. If December's weather is an indication of what winter will bring, then I think January and February are likely to be horrible. Carol, Even my thermometers cannot agree with one another and they all are mounted outdoors in the shade (were the sun shining) at the same height. Two show 32 degrees and three show 31 degrees. They are located at different locations on our property though. Burneyville has remained about 1 degree colder than us most of the day, but they are further north. Tim is in Dallas but not planning to stay there tonight unless our weather here deteriorates quickly. Dawn |

Tangelo Times Bulletin 2/4/14; Part-time Modship
Well, almost everything.
We need an active site. We need adventures to be updated regularly. The current updating situation has forced our hand. We are opening part time modship (commonly referred to as the "Marcus Plan") to the masses.
That said...
The Creed to Lead
So, you want to be an RPG moderator? Good for you! But be warned, there are some requirements. And maybe a rule or two... or seven. But they're not that hard to follow, if you're actually applying because you want the job.
Still there? Good. Now let's get started.
- We look for a bare minimum of thirty updates a week and an hour of updating activity a day from each staff member, barring holidays, family emergencies, Armageddon, and the like. This equates to at least five a day (with a day off!). If you can't manage that, don't bother reading further.
- Applying for staff means you're making a commitment. If you're going to apply, be sure you're going to be able to do this job.
- Even if you can't update much, being able to update at all is a step up from our current situation. If you doubt your Pokémon knowledge, you can ask fellow staff members in chat for assistance. Whether it's for a week or a year, your contributions will be valued and appreciated.
- We only want honest Joes on our staff team, not jerks. If you're caught abusing your newfound superpowers (exclusively updating certain people, beefing up your/other profiles, rigging battles, etc.), be prepared to take the heat. All 10000ºC of it.
- If you're thinking about applying because staff members get pretty colored names and neat badges next to their posts, stop thinking about it. You'll be off the staff team before you can say 'eep?'.
- We don't want to hear your promises of 400 updates a week and how you'll update the plaza all the time and how whatever higher power you believe in helped create the perfect moderator. If you're hired, we're going to want you to show us that you can not only meet (and hopefully exceed) the requirements, but you can work with other moderators as a team.
To apply, please send a message to any administrator. Thank you, and let's get this site back on track.1. Tell us a bit about yourself! We're a closely knit community, and we like to know our staff. Their interests, their personalities - what makes you, well, you?
2. What time zone are you in?
3. Why do you feel we should hire you?
4. Are you taking a lot of difficult classes this year? Are you involved in any other demanding activities, like sports, music, or a job that you see impacting your ability to update frequently and consistently? If not, will you be in the near/distant future? Be honest and realistic.
5. Do you have any prior experience with updating/moderating? If so, do you feel that any of those experiences make you a good choice for the ModforceTM? Why?
6. If there were one thing you could add to, remove from, or change in the TRPG, what would it be? Why?
7. Which Pokémon games have you played? How well do you know the moves? The abilities? The Pokémon themselves? How familiar are you with the unique moves, abilities, items, and Pokémon of Orange Islands?

Event Name
- OR - Select an option belowLucky Joe's, in Ft. Collins, could be seen as an Irish pub wearing a western shirt. Part pub, part saloon, Lucky Joe's straddles the line quite well. It's one of the more jumping spots in Old Town Square, and can get crowded and rowdy, especially when school is in session. Singer-songwriters and rock acts play there four nights a week, and there's an acoustic open-mic night on Sundays. The joint offers a wide-ranging selection of beers and a menu that includes Irish and American fare.
We like to think of Lucky Joe's as a friendly Irish Pub in an Old Western Saloon. Relax and be our guests for a fun and casual dining experience. Starting with the finest, fresh ingredients that we can find, we home-cook them with pride and care for a wonderful lunch, dinner or snack. We feature an extensive list of beers from very near and very far, a thoughtful wine selection and cocktails for kids of all ages. Combined with our Old Town atmosphere and Old-Fashioned hospitality, you can't help but have a Good Ole Time at Lucky Joe's.

We'll skip over the "why doesn't the woman ever have a gun question."
What I want to know is is who, right in the middle of having their door kicked in, is going to answer the phone? Oh Hi Marge...how are you? Could you call back later? I'm being murdered right now. I'll talk to you later...OK? Thanks now.. Bye.

The Smitten Kitchen Cookbook
December 5, 2012 7:30 PM
It's hard to find a food blog with more accolades than Deb Perelman's Smitten Kitchen blog, which counts the New York Times, Martha Stewart, NPR, and Rachael Ray among its many admirers. Perelman's philosophy is that there are no bad cooks, just bad recipes. In her new cookbook, she collects quality recipes that any cook can create at home without using complicated methods or expensive, difficult-to-find ingredients. The Smitten Kitchen Cookbook is packed with more than 100 new recipes, accompanied by the detailed instructions, engaging writing, and high-quality photography that have earned her blog so many avid followers. In conversation with Maureen Fitzgerald, food editor, the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Across-the-board federal budget cuts are already unsettling the lives of Minnesotans, and more painful measures are coming this summer and fall.
In Hennepin County, the Head Start program will be forced to cut as many as 14 teachers and eliminate 90 classroom slots.
WASHINGTON – Dustin Hawkins has been socking away money and putting off home repairs for months. An electrician with the Minneapolis-St. Paul Air Reserve Station, Hawkins knows that starting next month he's looking at a 20 percent cut in pay, courtesy of federal reductions known as the sequester.
Starting July 1, Hawkins will be among more than 2,400 federal Department of Defense employees in Minnesota forced to work a reduced, four-day week for several months. Those furloughs will be spread across 63 sites statewide, but Duluth's 148th Fighter Wing, Camp Ripley in Little Falls and St. Paul's 133rd Airlift Wing — the units with the highest concentration of federal employees — face the brunt of the cutbacks.
In Brooklyn Park, Lois Mueller, 81, has started counting her pennies in case Meals on Wheels, which relies on federal funding, starts charging for the food that volunteers bring to her home twice a week.
A single mother of five living in north Minneapolis, Yvonne White frets about whether Head Start will be there for her youngest son come September. She and Matrese, 4, often ride the bus together to the neighborhood program, where Matrese busily preps for school while White picks up parenting and nutrition tips.
Across Minnesota, those who depend on federal services are bracing for fallout from the sequester. Other states will be hit harder, but as Minnesotans are starting to realize, even small shifts in federal spending can jumble their lives.
"There's a lot of people who think the government will stop this before it happens," said Hawkins, of Chanhassen. "This is going to hit hard. I have absolutely no faith in our elected officials … to come up with a sensible solution."
Six months after Mueller suffered a stroke last year, volunteers from Metro Meals on Wheels began delivering meals to her home, helping her stretch her strict budget.
"It's a godsend," Mueller said of the meals.
But facing higher demand and an anticipated loss of $30,000 in federal funds, the organization plans to redouble its efforts to get clients like Mueller to contribute $1 to $5 per meal, said Executive Director Patrick Rowan.
At that price, Mueller said she'd probably rely on the occasional meals her adult children bring. "Hopefully, it wouldn't make that much difference," she said.
In the months since the across-the-board federal cuts took effect, the unemployment rate in Minnesota has held steady, the labor force has grown and the economy has weathered the loss of 200 federal jobs.
"Minnesota's just not hugely dependent upon federal assistance," said State Economist Tom Stinson.
That's no comfort to those affected.
Federal courts are feeling the pinch, with defendants waiting longer for trials.
Katherian Roe, chief federal public defender in Minnesota, said she has yanked attorneys off high-profile trials to prevent a backlog of lower-level cases. To keep her attorneys paid, she has cut back on paid expert witnesses and let vacant positions go unfilled. Even so, the caseloads for Roe's lawyers are growing. Attorneys from Roe's office represent more than 80 percent of federal defendants.
"Their representation is going to be compromised," said U.S. District Judge Michael Davis, Minnesota's chief federal judge.
The ax is poised

If you're sick and tired of getting "robocalls" at home, there's some hope in sight for you thanks to a new federal regulation.
Under new FCC rules, marketers will have to get your explicit permission before they can bombard you with pre-recorded automated calls on your home phone. This holds true even if you're not on the federal Do Not Call list, according to USA Today.
However, political groups and non-profits are exempt from the new rules.
Meanwhile, ABC News reports one robocall outfit stole $13 million from people by pretending they would get interest rate reductions and balances reduced on credit card debt. Person by person, people were conned into paying $995 for these supposed services. In reality, the outfit just took the money and ran.

Recently, Florida State Offensive Coordinator (and Head Coach in Waiting and ACC Offensive Coordinator of the Year) Jimbo Fisher discussed his preference for using an extra tight end instead of a fullback. He'll get his wish this year because Florida State doesn't have a fullback on its roster, due to a pair of off-season departures as a result of laziness and unrealistic expectations. Instead of a fullback, Fisher prefers to use multiple tight ends. The second tight end used in the way Fisher prefers, is commonly referred to as an H-Back. It's come to our attention that many here do not understand what an H-Back does, where he aligns, or why he is called an H-Back. Here's an explanation.
First, I want to clear up a misconception.
- An H-Back is just a big running back. FALSE. An H-Back does not run with the ball (except in the rarest of instances).
Now that we have that out of the way, we can stop saying that Debrale Smiley is coming to FSU to play H-Back. He is a big running back, not an H-Back. But if an H-Back isn't just a big running back, what is it?
Typically, the H-back is used on teams which employ a one-back, two tight end offense, and will be largely indistinguishable to the casual fan from the tight end. This is consistent with what Fisher's philosophy.
The tight end will line up in the traditional spots a tight end does, along the line of scrimmage. The h-back does not line up along the line, but further from the line, often in the backfield. The h-back can provide interior blocking much like a traditional fullback would, but will be sent in motion more often, and sent into pass routes more often than a fullback would.
Here's some background on the position:
The modern two-tight end set was developed by Joe Gibbs and his Redskins staff in the early 1980s. It was created as a countermeasure against 3-4 defenses in general and Lawrence Taylor in particular. Gibbs discovered that an extra tight end on the line of scrimmage was in better position than a fullback to stop Taylor and other elite blitzers. It also forced Taylor to align wider, thus lengthening the distance between him and the quarterback. Gibbs soon learned to use the second tight end as an all-purpose blocker: that extra tight end (usually Don Warren, back in the day) might go in motion before the snap to unbalance the offensive line, or he might slip into the backfield as a fullback or sneak into pass patterns. The modern H-back was born. Portions from: Tanier.
Here's more from the impressive Denver Bronco's Blog, the Mile High Report
The term H-back basically means, "motion TE." The Skins would typically use 1 RB, 1 TE, 2 WR, and this H-back as their base offensive personnel grouping. The in-line TE would be a bigger, more blocking-focused player. The H-back would be a somewhat more maneuverable type, but still a blocking-focused guy. He would usually line up 1 step behind the line of scrimmage, either outside the in-line TE (double wing,) or outside the weakside Tackle (balanced,) depending on the particular play. He'd frequently go in motion, either taking the offense from the double wing look to a balanced look, or from a balanced look to a double wing look. The famous Redskins Counter Trey usually began from a balanced Ace set, and featured the H-back motioning to the strong side, and sealing the backside edge along with the in-line TE, with the backside Guard & Tackle pulling to the playside to lead the running play.
Offenses need the versatility that the tight ends provide, and multi-tight end sets allow them to mass as many as four eligible receivers near the line of scrimmage. Those extra tight ends give coaches plenty of options in the passing game. But as we'll see, two-tight end sets can also be very efficient when running the ball.
Two-tight end sets place seven blockers on the line of scrimmage. Most defenses operate on a base 4-3 scheme. A seven-on-four battle in the trenches puts the defense at a severe disadvantage. The two-tight end set not only allows teams to mass blockers at the line of scrimmage, but it allows them to disguise the direction of a play. When possible, defensive coordinators move one or more linebackers down to the line of scrimmage to create a 50 front when facing a multi-tight end formation. The seven-on-five matchup gives the defense a fighting chance against the run but it also pigeonholes them into a set look and sometimes makes it difficult to defense the pass. On that note, expect FSU to actually throw the ball to their tight ends (err, sorry, tight end and H-Back).
Let's look at that problem from another angle. Here is the typical offensive line with one tight end.
The "|'s" are the gaps the defense must defend. There are 7 gaps for the defense to defend against the typical I formation.
But in an alignment with a TE and an H-Back (no fullback)...
| H-Back | LT | LG | C | RG | RT | TE |
We see there is an extra gap to defend. This presents problems for defenses because they have to show their hand much earlier, as discussed above.
There are hundreds of ways to exploit the presence of an extra tight end. They can give the offense a numbers advantage at the line of scrimmage, force a defense to guess the direction of the play, go in motion to mass blockers at the point of attack, extend the offensive line to allow play-side tackles to pull, or loop inside to block inside on delays or draws.
To learn more about how the H-Back is used in the pass game, check out this link. I want to highlight a few things Tanier shows that I have seen FSU do and can see FSU using this year.
FSU actually used this formation a good bit last year, typically using one of its fullbacks at the 2nd tight end position. Mike said (edited by me):
These "tight" receivers are in great position to attack the weaknesses in two-deep coverage schemes. One receiver's route options are shown in the diagram. A cornerback aligned head-up on the receiver is vulnerable to a corner route, while a cornerback with a wider split (one who may have zone responsibilities) is vulnerable to a hitch. The tight formation gives the receiver extra room to run after he makes his break on the corner route or other sideline routes. The Patriots, Chargers, Bucs (under Gruden), and Colts all do a great job of using multiple tight end formations.
Defenses frequently use two-deep coverage schemes to combat two-tight end formations. The threat of a deep seam route forces defensive coordinators to play it safe against tight ends who can run. The threat of the seamer opens up other options for the multi-tight end offense.
Mike doesn't mention this, because it's not an FSU article, but FSU destroyed two-deep defenses last year with the run game (except a few which just ragdolled the youngest offensive line in the country). Any alignment that allows FSU to face a two-deep defense while using Non-Spread personnel is a good thing.
I strongly encourage you to visit the link and read about the play titled "Cowboys Double Cross." You will see something like that this year from the 'Noles.
Finally, I want to highlight one other thing from Tanier's piece:
This is something that FSU fans could see this year. This is a formation with 2 WR, 2 TE (1 TE & 1 H-Back), and one running back. Teams will want to defend this with standard 4-3 personnel. The wideouts on the left represent an excellent opportunity to run the smash concept. This personnel is quite balanced and the defense doesn't know whether to expect run or pass. Watch what happens, however, when FSU shifts a running back with great hands (Jermaine Thomas or Chris Thompson) out wide (see squiggly lines in diagram above). The defense is now in quite the bind. They really wish that they were in Nickel Personnel (extra defensive back). Add the running dimension of Ponder, and most college defenses are not set up to defend this. Of course, being able to put 4 and 5 guys out into the pass pattern is predicated on being able to pass protect without help from tight ends or running backs. College football fans will remember USC abusing Virginia Tech with this play at 4:21 of this clip:
Who are some well known H-Backs?
Chris Cooley, of the Washington Redskins is a very good example, as is Dallas Clark of the Indianapolis Colts, and whoever the Patriots are using at the moment.
Who Will Be FSU's H-Back?

Rent My Womb Surrogate Mother Talks
Q. Is this your first pregnancy?
A: As a surrogate, yes this is my first time, but I already have a son with my husband. Only women who have children of their own can volunteer to be surrogate mothers.
Q. How is the surrogacy experience different from your previous pregnancy?
A: Strange. My elder sister is childless and I'm doing it for her. She is diabetic and has complications getting pregnant.
Q. Has she considered adoption?
A: When it comes to adoption, the child will not be her bloodline. Plus adoption involves a difficult process.
Q. Since you are carrying the baby how is the child not yours or your blood?
A: No, the child belongs to them, their blood and I cannot make claims on the child. The baby will not be mine.
Q. How did you come to know about surrogacy? What was your family's reaction?
A: My brother-in-law's (intended parent) friend recommended and my relatives also accepted it, since I was doing it for my sister.
Q. You are doing it for your sister, what if someone outside the family requested you? Would you offer to be a surrogate mother?
A: Why wouldn't I! If I can do it for my sister, I would do it for any childless couple.
Q: Since you are pregnant for your sister, you will be meeting the child, probably during family occasions. Won't you be drawn to the child?
A: No, we do not meet at all. I will have no connection with the child. They live in altogether a different place.
Q. Are you getting paid or are you doing it for free?
A. The payment was negotiated with my husband and he will get the money. I don't know how much was charged. He deals with the payment procedure.
Q. How different is the medical treatment from your first pregnancy? Where are you staying? Does your husband get to visit you?
A: I stay in an apartment with my second sister here in Chennai, I come from another State. My husband visits me and he even stayed with me twice. But I'm away from my family during the pregnancy phase.
Q. Is your pregnancy going to normal or cesarean?
A: My first delivery was a cesarean, so the second will also be a cesarean.
Q. Were you counseled? Was surrogacy explained to you? What if there are going to be any complications? What then?
A: My family spoke to me; the doctor counseled and even the intended parents met with me. Only if something comes up. But I am well taken care of.
Q. Do you want to have more children?
A: Yes. I already have a son and we would like to have one more. Once the financial condition is stable we will have one more child.
Q. Are you really happy being a surrogate mother? Wouldn't you get emotional when you have to give the child away?
A: No. I am very happy to be pregnant for my sister and I would gladly and wholeheartedly do it for other childless couples too.
The interview with the surrogate mother was an intriguing experience. Throughout the interview the surrogate mother was cheerful, co-operative and threw light on renting-a-womb from a surrogate's point of view. Medindia wished her well.

By Andrew Hammond
DUBAI Aug 1 (Reuters) - Arabs reacted strongly on Monday to the deaths of
dozens of Syrians in Hama at the hands of the Syrian army but most Arab
governments kept silent, apparently fearing the power of protest movements
that have spread throughout the region this year.
"It's no longer possible to understand the silence of Arab and Islamic
states and organisations before the massacres against Syrians," wrote
Saudi columnist Hussein Shobokshi in the Saudi pan-Arab daily Asharq
Rights activists said 80 civilians were killed in Sunday's tank-backed
assault on the central Syrian city where President Bashar al-Assad's
father crushed an armed Muslim Brotherhood revolt 29 years ago, killing
many thousands of people.
U.S. President Barack Obama led Western condemnation of the attack, but
there is almost no desire to intervene as Western powers have in Libya,
where NATO bombing in support of rebels has failed to dislodge Muammar
Gaddafi from his Tripoli base.
Arab countries have said little about Syria, although in a rare comment,
Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohamed Kamel Amr said his country was "very
disturbed at the increase in the level of violence and the number of
victims", the state news agency MENA reported.
Tunisian ruler Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali fled to Saudi Arabia in January
during a popular uprising over poverty, corruption and repression, and
three weeks later Egyptians had forced the exit from power of the U.S. and
Saudi-backed Hosni Mubarak.
Since then, protesters have been crushed in Bahrain, blocked in Yemen
where President Ali Abdullah Saleh is clinging to power, and neutralised
with promises of change by leaders of countries such as Morocco, Jordan
and Oman.
Syria has taken centre stage as the government's response to democracy
protests has become increasingly brutal.
Assad's Arab peers have watched nervously. Qatar, which stood out from the
pack by backing NATO in Libya, closed its embassy in Damascus two weeks
ago over fears it might be attacked because of the coverage of its TV
station Al Jazeera.
"As Qataris, we want to see all governments stepping in. Why doesn't the
Emir of Qatar support Syria and not only the Libyan people?" said a Qatari
who gave his name as H. Yousef. "Our hearts are bleeding for them. They're
one of our nations."
Arab League chief Nabil Elaraby urged Arab states on Monday to respond to
the "legitimate demands of their people" and "abide by human rights" in a
statement on MENA that did not mention Syria by name.
"The world is watching the slaughterhouse in Syria. Shame on us," Egyptian
presidential candidate Mohamed ElBaradei said in a well-received message
on social media site Twitter on Sunday. "The peace of God be upon Syria's
martyrs. Shame on every Arab and every human being," he also wrote in
Though there was an outpouring of anger on social media among activists,
immediate reaction was muted on the streets on the first day of the
fasting month of Ramadan.
"What happened yesterday in Syria is terrifying. If the international
community is silent then many of the Arab rulers could commit similar
massacres," said Jalal Shujja, a Yemeni activist at Change Square where
activists have been demanding an end to President Ali Abdullah Saleh's
rule since January.
Hamdeen Sabahi, an Egyptian opposition politician who also intends to run
for president, was visibly upset when he was informed of the Hama deaths
during a Reuters interview.
"There is no power or might but in God," he muttered, then sat for several
minutes in awkward silence.
Though activists have been inspired by protests in other Arab countries,
they have been locked in their own battles.
Around 200 people staged a demonstration outside the Syrian embassy in
Cairo on Sunday night, but Egyptian activists called for a major show of
protest for Monday night.
"I am certain that Assad will not have an easy exit and could end up
killing half of his people before he agrees to give up powers but he will
lose eventually as the people always win," said Gamal Eid, head of the
Cairo-based Arabic Network for Human Rights Information.
In the Gulf Arab region, where Saudi Arabia has led what analysts have
called a "counter-revolution" to bolster allies against protests, media
reflected popular revulsion of Assad's attempt to crush opposition but
seemed to contrast that with the paternalistic rule of the Gulf ruling
In Saudi newspapers, headlines about Syria ran next to picture of King
Abdullah and his Ramadan speech calling for Muslims to build "sympathetic,
tolerant societies" in which "the wronged forgive those who have wronged
Saudi Arabia has had bad relations with Assad because of his close ties to
Iran and the Lebanese Shi'ite group Hezbollah, but analysts say the Saudi
royal family, which managed to deter mass protests at home, is conflicted
over the possibility of seeing another Arab ruler fall.
Kuwaiti authorities have suspended several clerics who criticised Assad in
Friday prayer sermons, while Kuwaiti Islamists said this week they will
mobilise in media and mosques during Ramadan against Assad's government.
In the United Arab Emirates daily al-Ittihad, the Hama story came below
headlines announcing a round of massive housing loans. Having put five
people on trial for attempting to mobilise for democratic reforms, the UAE
has not allowed a repeat of protests at the Syrian consulate in Dubai in
"Arab leaders are just not willing to stand up to the Assad regime and
potentially damage the relationship. They don't know if he'll stay in
power and there's a chance he will," said Shadi Hamid of the Doha
Brookings Center.
He added: "We may possibly see the worst massacre of the Arab Spring right
now -- I think we're on the verge of that."
In Morocco, newspapers played down the number of Syrian deaths. King
Mohammed has so far outmanoeuvred democracy protesters with a successful
referendum on a new constitution that stops far short of making him a
figurehead in a constitutional monarchy, maintaining his sweeping powers.
"Arab governments are not reacting because they are concerned that the
unrest will spread to other Arab states," said Hilal Khashan, a politics
professor in Beirut. "I don't think that continued violence (during
Ramadan) will have any official reaction from the rest of the Arab World,"
he said. (Editing by Alistair Lyon)

Batting is an essential skill that baseball and softball players alike hone at On Deck Batting Cages. The 17,000-square-foot training facility?s coaches, however, aren?t interested in players who can only showcase one skill. So beyond aiming for the rafters in one of 14 cages, pupils also refine their knuckleballs on a 72-foot pitching lane whose portable mound accommodates pitches from any distance. During private lessons, meanwhile, baseball and softball instructors focus on everything from throwing to fielding, the art of catching a fly ball while simultaneously mowing the outfield. Once players are ready for the diamond, On Deck's resident uniform guru, Laura Simon of J&L Designs, can outfit them with her comfortable, eye-catching uniforms and apparel.
As one of the founding members of the Big West Conference, Long Beach State boasts a storied history of athletic accomplishments, thrilling 49ers fans with 18 sports teams.

Some dare call it |
Secrets revealed! |
The revealers |
—Everything you need to know about Globalresearch in a nutshell[1] |
Globalresearch.ca (also under the domain name globalresearch.org) is the website of the Montreal-based non-profit The Centre for Research on Globalisation (CRG) founded by Michel Chossudovsky.
While many of Globalresearch's articles discuss legitimate humanitarian or environmental concerns, the site has a strong undercurrent of reality warping throughout its pages, especially in relation to taking its news from sources such as Russia Today. Its view of science, the economy and geopolitics seems to be broadly conspiracist.
Whenever someone makes a remarkable claim and cites Globalresearch, they are almost certainly wrong.

[edit] What it thinks it is
The website describes itself as an "independent research and media organization." Globalresearch considers itself to be a reliable "alternative news" source serving as a major repository of a broad range of "news articles, in-depth reports and analysis on issues which are barely covered by the mainstream media" (such as the New World Order). Its politico-economic stance is strongly anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, anti-militarist, "internationalist but anti-globalization."
[edit] What it really is
Despite presenting itself as a source of scholarly analysis, Globalresearch mostly consists of polemics many of which accept (and use) conspiracy theories, pseudoscience and propaganda. The prevalent conspiracist strand relates to global power-elites (primarily governments and corporations) and their New World Order.[2] Specific featured conspiracy theories include those addressing 9/11,[3] vaccines,[4] genetic modification,[5] Zionism,[6][7] HAARP,[8] global warming,[9][10] Bosnian genocide denialism[11] chemtrails,[12] and David Kelly.[13]
Globalresearch contributors are happy to source information from anyone who seems vaguely aligned with their ideology; during the 2011 Libyan civil war the site was an apologist for Muammar al-Gaddafi,[14] reproducing his propaganda and painting him as a paragon of a modern leader. In the 2014 Ukrainian crisis the site is taking the standard "anti-globalisation" stance against the Western side and falling into the ranks of imperial Russian propaganda instead.
Globalresearch also has published numerous articles written by contributors to New Eastern Outlook, a Moscow-based Russian Government propaganda site. It has published the same articles on the same day as Oriental Review, a Moscow-based site that is also almost certainly a Russian Government site.
It's no surprise then that the site has long become a magnet for radicals, fringe figures and whacko elements from the left in general.
