Disc golf is a disc game in which individual players throw a flying disc into a basket or at a target. According to the Professional Disc Golf Association, "The object of the game is to traverse a course from beginning to end in the fewest number of throws of the disc." Of the more than 3,000 established disc golf courses as of 2010, approximately 87% are free. The game is played in the United States and more than 20 other countries around the world

People still play this, mostly stoners.
I agree with you, barroom hero….it doesn't take much skill to play this stupid "game". And yes, if you can afford to smoke pot, you can afford to play this game.

Only mystics know love. Other than mystics there is no category of human beings who have ever experienced love. Love is absolutely the monopoly of the mystic. If you want to know love you will have to enter into the world of the mystic.
Jesus says, "God is love." He has been part of a mystery school of the Essenes, an ancient school of mystics. But perhaps he did not graduate from the mystery school, because what he is saying is just not right. God is not love; love is God. And the difference is tremendous; it is not just a change of words.
The moment you say God is love you are simply saying that love is only an attribute of God. He is also wisdom, he is also compassion, he is also forgiveness. He can be millions of things besides love. Love is only one of the attributes of God. And, in fact, even to make it a small attribute of God is very irrational and illogical - because if God is love then he cannot be just; if God is love then he cannot be cruel enough to throw sinners into eternal hell, if God is love then God cannot be the law.
One great Sufi mystic, Omar Khayyam, shows more understanding than Jesus when he says, "I will go on just being myself. I am not going to take any notice of the priests and the preachers because I trust that God's love is great enough. I cannot commit a sin that can be greater than his love. So why be worried? Our hands are small and our sins are small. Our reach is small - how can we commit sins that God's love cannot forgive? If God is love then he cannot be present on the last judgment day to sort out the saints and throw the remaining millions and millions of people into hell for eternity."
The teachings of the Essenes were just the opposite. Jesus quotes them wrongly. Perhaps he was not very deeply rooted in their teachings. Their teaching was "Love is God." That is such a tremendous difference. Now God becomes only an attribute of love; now God becomes only a quality of the tremendous experience of love. Now God is no longer a person but only an experience of those who have known love. Now God becomes secondary to love. And I say unto you, the Essenes were right.
Love is the ultimate value, the final flowering. There is nothing beyond it; hence, you cannot perfect it. In fact, before you attain to it you will have to disappear. When love will be there you will not be there.
A great Eastern mystic, Kabir, has a very significant statement - a statement that can be made only by one who has experienced, who has realized, who has entered into the inner sanctum of ultimate reality. The statement is: "I had been searching for truth, but it is strange to say that as long as the searcher was there, truth was not found. And when the truth was found, I looked all around.I was absent. When the truth was found, the seeker was no more; and when the seeker was, truth was nowhere."

Senior Member
No, I've been dead for the past few months and got bored of it, so I decided to come back to life. Lots more fun.
I'm back!
High fives for people coming back! ...wait, who are you again?
Ghostvoider Rick
Jaykoboy... Now where have I heard of you... Please tell me... you wouldn't happen to know a certain bard, would you?
((Still working on it, and not sure if I will even still do it, but here's a small entry for RP'ing as Cho'Gath. Let me know what you all think, and I am going for a pre-Gentleman Cho'Gath kinda thing. And no, I have not made an account for him yet. Needless to say, Cho's kind of a difficult champion to get a feel for, or at least he is to me. But he is one of my favorites, and he is available.)) Sitting. Waiting. Planning. Plotting. ... preparing. These seemed to be the general and extend of his activities as of late. Those who called themselves summoners had imprisoned him, both in the sand dunes of the Shurima Desert and the confines of the Institution of War, and now they used him to decide their meaningless conflicts. It was all... demeaning to the Voidborn. As he sat in his confines, back within the Institution of War, he thought about the creatures, the summoners who imprisoned him... and of how he hated them! They were hideous, stupid, disgusting, and selfish creatures! He barely considered them good enough for food, and they barely meant the requirements of consious creatures! To have been captured and forced into their services was an insult and humiliating! And then he heard steps of an approaching summoners. This day had been going so well too, and just the sight of one of the creatures was enough to ruin it all! As he watched the door outside of his confines open, heard the door opening to allow the summoner entry, and waited to find out what this one wanted this time. The sooner it left, the sooner he could salvage what remained of the day and hopefully return to Shurima. Anywhere was better than the confines of this abomination. ------ Upon entering the room, the summoner activated a small lightstone in his hand. It was a small gem, one of many he had received from Taric not to long ago, that he had enchanted with a spell. In this case it would work like an oil lantern; allowing him to turn up light's intensity up and down. An so, slowly, the light's intesity increased until, at last, he could see see the Terror of the Void itself: Cho'Gath, who waited at the other side of the room. The summoner was not intimedated by the dangerous, mostly unknown creature before him, but instead smiled causually. "Greetings Champion." He said. In response, Cho'Gath growled in warning. The summoner's smile turned into a frown. He had been hoping things would go better than this, but he continued as planned and reached into the pocket of his summoner robe. After a moment of searching, he retrieved a small piece of paper and read aloud from it. "Champion Cho'Gath, also known as the Terror of the Void. You are invited to join the Ask a Champion program. If you decide to join the program, we of the Institution of War are prepared to offer you..." The summoner said, and then stopped and sighed as he heard the Voidborn continuing to growl threateningly at him. The summoner looked up at the champion, his eyes meeting the Voidborn's, and the two stared into one another's eyes for a time. After about a minute or two of this, neither knowing the real time as they went through their stand off, the summoner smiled. In a flash of flame, he ignited the letter in his hand, it flying away from him a few inches and turning to ash. He never took his eyes off of the Voidborn champion as he did this. "Any questions?" He asked simply. The Terror of the Void ceased his growling, and then adjusted himself on his legs. "You did not finish reading it. Why?" He asked. The summoner's smile did not fade. "I'm pretty sure you don't care about the program, and you know that the benefits for you are limited, if worth anything." He said. Cho'Gath leaned towarrd the summoner, rising a little as he did, and seemed to peer into the summoner's very mind and soul. "What are these benefits?" He asked. By the sound of his voice, it was clear the champion was within striking distance of the summoner. Although, it was clear enough in the dim light alone. Still, the summoner did not budge, but his smile only faded into a straight and plaid expression. "You will be given a house, not a prison, to stay in, as well as whatever furinishing you wish to be put in it or whatever you are given from the Cult of the Void. In adition, you may have visitors in this house, so long as they leave as they entered; physically and mentally." The summoner explained. Cho'Gath began to growl once more, moving away from the strangely calm summoner, as he thought about the offer. The Voidborn appeared to truly think over this offer, though it was unknown what he thought about it. After a few minutes of silence, the summoner spoke again. "You will still be under guard, both for your own protection and that of others from you, but at least you'll have some choice while you are here." He said. Cho'Gath turned his head back to the summoner, his eyes narrowing and bringing his face close to the summoners. As he spoke, the summoner felt something... else in his voice, but he could not place what it was. "What makes you think I need protection?" He asked in a warning tone. The summoner raised his free hand up to the side of his head, near his ears, and found them to be bleeding. Without a word, he retrieved cotton balls, two actually, and placed them into both of his ears. When he finished, he took a few steps back, away from Cho'Gath, before speaking, unphased by the bleeding of his ears. "You may not consider us of this world a threat to you, but we try to avoid conflicts, such as those with the Cult of the Void and the Preservers." He explained. Cho'Gath straightened himself, furthering the distance between the two of them. "And what choices will I have?" He asked. The summoner's free hand glowed with a healing, green aura as he moved it over his head, stopping the bleeding that emerged from his nose other places on his head. "Basically, you will be able to chose what goes into the house, how it is painted and how it looks, who you want in your house, and, really, whatever you want. You will still have to fight on the Fields of Justice and will not be allowed to roam the world freely, but at least it will be better than a stone room in an underground bunker or a desert you can be pulled from at any moment." He explained. The Voidborn appeared to seriously think this over. As he did, the summoner noticed him turning his head, almost as though he were looking at the walls and imaging them away. After nearly five minutes of quiet thought, Cho'Gath finally turned back to the summoner, and leaned toward him. Once more, the two stared into one another's eyes, the champion seeming to test the human, until he finally leaned away from the summoner. "If I allow no one to visit, and only keep the house, what will your program do then?" He asked, his voice emating with a strange, forgien power. The summoner put his head into his free hand and wided his eyes, finding both tears and blood, cleaning them up with his still active healing spell. He then cast another spell, Cleanse, as he took a deep breath before looking back toward the Voidborn summoner. He blinked a few times, and then spoke. "The program allows visitors and letters to be delivered. If you will not have visitors, then you will have to reply to letters. Failure to do so, or just refusal to do so, will result in any promises we made becoming voided." He said. "This includes the house you will be given and are currently offered." He added. Cho'Gath response was only a grow, but then he stopped. "I will need to decide if these... benefits will be worth the trouble of this program." He said. The summoner blinked his eyes once more and held his head in his hands once more, this time the healing spell gone from his hand. Instead, he used cotton from his robe's pocket to remove the tears and blood from his face. He even had to retrieve an empty bottle and spit blood from his mouth into the bottle. When he finished, he nodded his head. "You... you can have a trial, yes, but it- it's your choice whether or not to, um, to join the program." He said, his speech beginning to fail him. "When do you want to start?" He managed, now breathing heavily. Cho'Gath appeared to chuckle, or at least it sounded different from him growling. "Take me to this house, and I will judge it." He said. The summoner shook his head. "Alright... alrght. I- I'll let them know." He said, turning around and starting to the exit, lightstone still in hand. "You are not showing me to this house?" Cho'Gath's voice, angry by the tone, asked. The summoner raised his free hand and waved it. "All I was told to do was inform you of, um, of the, ah... the program. And... and have your answer." He said. When reached the door, he placed his hand against the frame and spoke to someone from beyond the threshold. A minute later, a pair of summoners, neither of them the one he spoke to, and showed him to a large mansion outside but near the Institution of War.

Texas de Brazil blends the steak-centric cuisine of Texas with the traditional churrasco method of slow-roasting meat over an open flame grill to form a luscious meaty mélange. The full dinner ($39.99) marches out a cavalcade of choice cuts, allowing diners to welcome continuous windfalls of flavorful proteins. Brandish your table's provided card, green on one side, red on the other, and it will function as a meat traffic light that summons servers to either send stacks of seasoned beef, pork, or lamb skewers or halt plate traffic like a decorated culinary crossing guard. Or feel free to substitute greens for the grill by stepping into the sprawling salad-bar conga line ($24.99), two-stepping through toothsome goodies such as imported cheeses, steamed asparagus, and dozens of other hors d'oeuvres.
Since 1948, grills have kissed aged steaks from Chicago and Kansas City with open flames to take center stage on Gene's Steak House's menu bolstered with select classics dishes and fine wines. Cuts of beef range from 6-ounce petite filet mignons to 28-ounce porterhouse-steak behemoths, each carved from corn-fed, immaculately aged meat. Diners can relive fishing trips or nightmares about aquariums with plates of char-grilled stuffed grouper, lobster tails, and salmon. A list of over 200 fine wines from around the world lends bouquets to balance every smoky flavor, highlighting steaks with French red bordeaux and complementing seafood with German white varietals.
There are no easy decisions once you slide into a booth at Ormond Steakhouse. What should I get as an appetizer? What should I get as an entree? What nickname should I choose for the server? All of these things rush through a diner's mind as they open the menu and scan over its assortment of wood-fired steaks, chicken, and seafood.
Meals kick off with the likes of fall-off-the-bone rib tips and homemade kettle chips topped in melted blue cheese. Then, servers bring plates of market fresh fish, center-cut pork chops, and USDA choice steaks such as a Texas top sirloin in peppercorn sauce. Most of the entree selections do have a couple of things in common: chefs grill them over wood-powered flames, and they go perfectly with sides such as cinnamon apples. Beer, wine, and specialty cocktails?such as a pomegranate margarita?put the final note to this culinary symphony.
• For $10, you get $20 worth of steakhouse fare for lunch. • For $15, you get $30 worth of steakhouse fare for dinner. The chefs at Durango Steakhouse man an oak fire grill to seal the aromatic flavors of the Old West into their collection of meats, which include USDA Choice grain-fed beef. With menus for both lunch and dinner, diners can snag the delectable Southwestern pork chops for midday meat munching ($7.50–$12.95), or schedule a blind dinner-date with the 8-ounce sirloin steak seasoned with a blend of secret spices ($10.95–$13.95). Durango's sandwiches such as the margarita mahi-mahi with lettuce, tomato, and chipotle ranch ($8.50–$13.50) quell aggressive belly bellows; a selection of fajitas, quesadillas, and burritos encourage taste buds to straddle borderlines. Children ages 12 and under can delve into the kids' menu to polish off a plate of sirloin steak ($6.49), wreck a rack of ribs ($6.95), or name each noodle of the mac n' cheese after their favorite Supreme Court justices ($3.95).
It's no wonder Vines gives equal weight to "Grille" and "Wine Bar" in its name. The Restaurant Row anchor is hugely popular for its top-quality meats and fresh-caught seafood; a meal could begin with grilled octopus or oysters Rockefeller before transitioning to a cut of Prime filet. But the wine list is at least as impressive, a catalogue of 600-plus bottles from around the world that's been recognized with a Wine Spectator Best Award of Excellence. After dinner on any given night, guests can linger over a fine cigar or a gentlemanly mouthful of chewing gold as they listen to live jazz music from the likes of Tonya Phillips Staples and Barbara Walker.
The chefs at each Copper Canyon Grill, a mid-Atlantic favorite, craft their regional American dishes from scratch every day. Their kitchens fill with flames and savory aromas as they roast meats and vegetables over hardwood fires, making customers happy, but leaving behind bare earth at local basketball arenas.
The kitchen yields hearty servings of grilled prime rib and filet mignon, ahi tuna and Atlantic salmon, and Delmarva-style crab dip and Eastern Shore jumbo lump crab cakes. It also tempts with a signature rotisserie chicken and jalapeño- and serrano-pepper cornbread baked in an iron skillet.

Hi SRSDS,
You need to check that you're not trying to freeze the current layer; you'll get the eInvalidLayer error if you are.

Compelling new work from recent Royal College of Art graduate Tereza Zelenkova (who we previously featured after graduating from Westminster here), questioning the medium through a series of enigmatic images, drawing reference from art and literature. The work is presented as an incredibly well thought out installation, complete with objects from her personal collection. From her project statement:
"This work can be understood as a metaphor for the night as a time associated with both inspiration and imagination, but also melancholia, solitude and isolation. The darkness of the night, like the darkness inside a camera, is a space where images are conjured. Here I am not really interested in the images brought to us by dreams but rather by that point of insomniac vigilance when one can no longer recognize what's a dream and what's reality; when familiar objects start to take on shapes of something else, undergoing a sort of metamorphoses. In the world of hyper real digital imagery, I chose to look at the world with my eyes squinting in order to filter out the insignificant detail, allowing imagination to complete the image."
We interviewed Tereza about her previous body of work Supreme Vice, you can read the interview here.

Ten Tips to Build Customer Loyalty

Keep Them Coming Back
One of the keys to maintaining a thriving business is a steady customer base. A successful company typically sees 80 percent of its business come from 20 percent of its customers. Add to this the fact that the cost of attracting new customers is significantly more than that of maintaining a relationship with existing ones, and you have a powerful incentive to keep that core group of customers happy. Yet too many businesses neglect this loyal customer base in pursuit of new customers.
If your business's goal is to live long and prosper, then any efforts toward building customer loyalty will certainly pay off. Following are 10 tips to increase and maintain greater customer loyalty.

This is an exclusively for buyers office - and our agents are Exclusive Buyer Agents!
First time buyers must deal with a lot of uncertainty. Finding the right agent can help reduce the anxiety. Using an exclusive buyer agent will ensure that your agent will continue as YOUR agent.
New Jersey has provided a Consumer Information Statement that agents are supposed to give to you to review when they explain 'agency' to you.
Any agent can claim to be a 'buyer's agent ', but few can maintain that relationship throughout your home search. If the company "your" agent works for lists property for sale they may ask you to let them be a "dual agent" if they get the chance, instead of really being a buyer's agent. Just say no - that is not buyer representation.
I'll GUARANTEE- in writing - that I will ONLY work for you as YOUR agent in your home purchase - never as a 'dual agent' or seller's agent. That goes for every agent at NJHomeBuyer.com Realty.
The National Association of Exclusive Buyers' Agents
Real estate laws vary from state to state. Not only that, processing procedures can vary widely even within a state. It is important that you understand the steps in the process for the area in which you are searching.
If you have to sell a current home in order to finance a new purchase you face additional hurdles. A contingent buyer is generally in a weaker bargaining position when negotiating a new purchase. The further along the sale of your current home is the better.
If you haven't listed your home yet you are in a weak negotiating position. Listed but not yet under contract is better. Under contract is better still and under contract with completed inspections with a buyer that has a financing commitment is nearly as strong as a non contingent buyer - everything else being equal.

Alright, so our consultation for the PERC lengthening surgery was a week ago from today. Time to get down into the nitty gritty and spill the beans. Logan is not a candidate for PERC at this time. The doctor said that Yogi is indeed tight, but not tight enough. Doc also mentioned that the very first time a kiddo has this surgery, it's the most beneficial and highly effective when the patient is spastic to the extremes (wow, that's tight!). Thankfully, Logan isn't there yet. This is good and it gets better. This means he doesn't have to endure nor experience any pain from another surgery. Plus, he isn't tight enough that he is contracted. In other words, he can stand up straight when supported. All good news from that perspective. On the flip side, it stinks. Logan still has to struggle in his battle against spasticity every day. Seeing him unable to do the things he desires to do because his body won't let him continues to bash me into pulp. I could go in a million directions here, and I'm fighting to stick to the course… PERCS will be something to drag out of the closet and look at again in a couple to few years. In the meantime, it's time to shut that door and open another. It's time for Euro-Peds, an intensive physical therapy clinic for children with cerebral palsy. Our dates are set. We begin this two week journey on September 21 and run with it until October 2. We are hoping this $6,000 treatment will help boost Logan's mobility and help manage his spasticity. Who knows what else this can bring. We are game. |

Families who qualify for free lunches at Ticonderoga Central School will not be charged for the five-week program.
Families who qualify for reduced lunches at school will be charged $12.50 per child per week to attend the summer program.
Families who do not qualify for the free or reduced lunch program will be charged $25 per child per week to attend.
Complicating the budget was the loss of $75,000 in mortgage tax, the result of fewer home sales in the town in 2009.
Dedrick said all town departments made cuts for 2010 as officials worked to keep taxes down.
"People have to understand that we have a lot of fine services in Ti," Dedrick said. "In making this budget we (town trustees) tried to balance the needs of taxpayers with our quality of life. I think we did a good job."
Dedrick credited Amy Quesnel, his clerk, with her work in the budget process.

RV Wholesale
Southwest Luxury Coach
Phoenix Arizona is headquarters to Southwest Luxury Coach Sales and home to owner/founder Scott Buchanan. An avid RV lover with over 20 years of experience in the RV industry Scott has firsthand knowledge of the daily operations of a dealership and recognizes the demand for pre-owned inventory. He visualized a means of providing retail dealerships with used RVs that are available on demand without tying up funds on valuable inventory.
Mr. Buchanan made his vision a reality and founded Southwest Luxury Coach Sales LLC, started off locally and expanded to neighboring states. As Southwest Luxury Coach Sales began to develop its territory, a partnership was formed. Mr. Buchanan handpicked his team, fellow Arizonan Turner Reaney and native Californian Matt Hasson, based on their extensive experience, professionalism and knowledge of the RV industry. Once the partnership was established, Matt Hasson was appointed the Nationwide Representative for Southwest Luxury Coach Sales.
As a result of Mr. Buchanan's vision, the combined 60 years experience among the partners and their joint efforts, the team progressively extended Southwest Luxury Coach Sales reach across the United States and British Columbia.
Southwest Luxury Coach Sales LLC as a wholesale outlet has dedicated itself to catering to dealerships and their used inventory needs. Now Southwest Luxury Coach Sales is offering RV wholesale direct to the public.

Whenever I get on Facebook I feel depressed. I seem to spend most of my time untagging myself in pictures so my third grade boyfriend doesn't see me looking like I have four chins and a lazy eye. To make matters worse, it seems everybody else is beautiful, photogenic and having The Best Time Ever. Given that I'm generally having a decent time and am at least moderately attractive, I believe the problem is the pictures.
Upon closer examination, most photogenic people (by that I mean anyone under 25) have a sort of signature look, the pose they do in every picture—whether it's on The Great Wall or at their grandmother's house—that they know makes them look fabulous.
I have no look. I have tried to create one, but I just end up looking pained. I figure it's time to go the experts… Keep reading »

Psychosexual disorder in which an individual achieves erotic release by being subjected to pain or humiliation. The term is derived from the name of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, a 19th-century Austrian novelist who wrote extensively about the sexual enjoyment he derived from verbal and physical abuse. The amount of pain involved can vary; it is usually sought out and to some degree controlled by the masochist. Masochistic and sadistic traits often occur in the same individual.

Then, capture the Shipright and get Builders to build Wall Hubs where the Cave Trolls lair is found (kill it first). Build a wall. Now build units and an upgrade structure. Get your units upgraded as much as possible. Put some by the wall to defend it. Send the rest to the Shipright. Build the number of transports needed. Put the units by the Shipright onto the transports. Send the transports to the enemy camp. Optionally, split your units up and surround the camp. Destroy all the structures except for the fortress. Finally, destroy the fortress. |
Ring HeroesEvery map in skirmish or multi-player mode has Gollum cloaked on it. After finding Gollum, kill him and you will get the ring. Take it back to your fortress and have the troop that is carrying the ring enter the fortress in order to recruit a Ring Hero for 9,000 resources. Your Ring Hero uses no command points. Men, Elves, and Dwarves can recruit Galadriel. Mordor, Isengard, and Goblins can recruit Sauron. The easiest way to get the ring is to let an enemy find Gollum then kill them after they acquire the ring. The only way to stop them before they reach their base is to chase them down with a mounted unit, have a created hero teleport into their path, or to summon allies into their path using a power. |
Defeating groups of enemies-Have plenty of defensive structures in your base and teleport the opponents to your base. The towers will kill the enemies before they can do much damage. The Convert spell will also work, because they are free men. |
Invincible Troll glitchKill a Troll while it is barely coming out of the Troll Cage. It will be invincible, freeze where it is, and you will still be able to shoot at it. You can still gain power points from shooting it. Eventually, it will unfreeze and attack any enemies. |
General strategies-Avoid rushing your opponent's territory. Either send in a camo capable unit or a very cheap, weak unit such as Orc Warriers. Scope out your opponent's base before attacking with stronger units |
Hero power transferUse the following trick to give a hero any power(s) desired, but it requires plenty of time and quite a few patience. First, make a hero with no powers then a second hero with the power desired (for example, an elf hero with Healing). Then, stack them together on the playfield. Click on the hero with the single power. Go to the "Powers" menu. When you click "Customize", quickly press the quick switch key to your hero with no powers. When you enter the powers menu, the "hero" using the powers from the power menu will be the hero with no powers. After that, click on the blank unit portrait (the picture of power will not be there) where the desired power is located and re-select it. You can now make other heroes with the desired powers you want and put them on your new glitched hero. Note: You cannot "pull" multiple powers from the valid hero unit; you will still need to add them one by one to the glitched unit. |
Easy experienceTo level your race up in Skirmish mode quickly, create a hero that can learn the Recruit Battlions power. Set up a game against an easy AI with a handicap of -95%. As soon as the game starts, create your hero and rush into the enemy's. Use the power to summon a battalion and the skirmish will be over in two minutes. |
Postern GatesWhen building a wall around your base in Skirmish mode, never put in gates. Always put in Postern Gates. A Postern Gate is a small door in a wall that lets allies pass through, but not enemies. It is invisible to the enemy, making passing through a wall virtually undetectable, and allies can pass through a Postern Gates as fast as they would pass through a regular gate. |
Unlockable HeroesUnlock the following heroes by performing the corresponding tasks: |
The ShireOn the third level of the Evil campaign is a mission where you must capture the Shire. This mission is very easy up to a point. Play the mission until you must build a base in the Eastfarthing, then build a base with two of each building (including Fortresses). Also, build at least ten Sentry Towers. Upgrade your Fortress to the maximum and build all your Fortress expansions as Mountain Giants. Stay in your base and repel all Dunedain attacks until you have killed all them all. You will be notified when all Dunedain have perished. When you reach the part where you must destroy the three remaining Seats of Power, only send one Goblin horde to destroy them, as there is literally no resistance with the Dunedain defeated. Do not destroy the Seat of Power in the bottom-left corner of the mini-map. At this point, build a large army with at least 750 command points available. Purchase all available upgrades for your Goblins. Send all your units to the large, grassy field at the bottom-left corner of the mini-map, just south of the last remaining Seat of Power. Destroy the final remaining Seat of Power with as little units as possible, then retreat a short distance to the north. You must do this because a volley of arrows will kill many goblins if you remain in that grassy field. After a couple seconds, immediately return to the grassy field and a large army from Isengard will emerge, led by Grima Wormtoungue. Fight this army until only two Goblin hordes remain in your forces. Send these troops to your base, and build as many Goblin hordes as quickly as possible. In a very short time the army will attack your base. Do not try to defend any other buildings besides one Goblin cave and your Fortress. Uruk-Hai will lay waste to your forces in a short time, but your fully upgraded fortress should hold them back while you construct more Goblin hordes. After some relentless Uruk-Hai attacks, the flow of enemies should stop. At this time, re-build your base and construct a large army. Lead this army into the Isengard base and kill Grima. This part of the level is very difficult, as the Ballista will quickly destroy your units. Destroying the Ballista first is recommended. |
Unlimited health for elvesMake an elf hero with self-heal. You can get no recharge time on it. When you want to click on it, do so but quickly move to another location. It will not recharge. You can do this as many times as desired. |
Reveal entire map permanently on Dol GuldurFirst, you must have played the map in Skirmish mode to get the hang of it. Play it at least three times and memorize the locations. When you start the level in the Good campaign, you must have the Tom Bombadil power and Elrond's Farsight power. Use Elrond's power and eyeball the Dark Shroud to find the center section of Dol Guldur (the part with the fortress in it). Note: You can see the texture of the terrain as you move the the Farsight power's pointer. Once you have successfully revealed the fortress area, summon Tom Bombadil just in front of the fortress. Once he is in, the shroud should disappear permanently with no fog of war. You can see exactly what the enemy is doing at the moment. You can use Bombard, Flood, Earthquake, or Sunlight, to attack enemy units and buildings, and when they are weakened, launch the assault with your army. |

"Hi all,
Does anyone have the recipe for the mini cinnabun fixins that are dipped in wax and then "drizzled" with additional wax that smell so yummy? I seemed to have misplaced my recipe. As I recall, they are fashioned from a dough like clay, then baked, cooled and then dipped in fragrant wax. I made these last year as gifts for friends and coworkers and they were a big hit. Thank you in advance--" I found this on th C&D forum. I would love to learn how to make these also. If anybody could help that would be great. I think they are similar to these. These are made of muslin? TIA |

The results of the California STAR test are expected to be delayed about two weeks after it was discovered that several school sites may have breached standardized testing protocol. Over 400 images related to the test were found online, including images of actual test questions. This breach may have significant impacts on the schools were the security breaches occurred, including a school not receiving Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) and/or Academic Performance Index (API) results which may in turn affect funding. It is important that all school site test administrators/proctors as well as students take the testing procedures seriously. Failure to do so could result in serious penalties that affect the school as a whole. For more coverage on this, see the Los Angeles Times article here.

As a girl who is obsessed with my collection of over 200 lip balms, I have to say that this was a disappointment to me.
Hardly any smell to this.
The texture was very hard (yes I know it's beeswax and will be hard, but not hard enough to say nothing happened while swiping on my lips). No product would come off on my lips! And when I heated it up a little to make it usable, it felt horrible on my lips and made them dry and cracked which I hated.
Was very disappointed with this product!

I think this balm works wonders for people who have normal lips and want an extra moisture, like me. It leaves them feeling super soft all day long, looking really healthy and pouty due to the peppermint and with a really fresh feeling, but I don't think they will give the needed moisture for dry or chapped lips. Anyway, I personaly can't live without it, it has lasted me so long and it's cheap. Will rebuy for ever!

I love Burt's. I love Burt's with a passion. But I loath the original beeswax balm with every fiber of my being!
The smell is ok, but it creates a lot of lip-drag. This stuff is like attempting to moisten your lips with a smooth rock. Once applied, it feels waxy and SOMEHOW makes my lips feel drier. Like popcorn-with-too-much-salt shriveled, and dry.
I adore Burt's non-mentholated balms. Like the Replenishing Pomegranate. Pomegranate and I are homies, but keep that awful original formula AWAY from me.

Stumbled upon this at Target and bought it on a whim this past winter since I need a lip balm to hydrate my lips. I couldn't find Chapstick or Lypsyl and the medicated Blistex with spf was drying my lips out. I thought Burst Bees lip balm with peppermint oil and vitamin E would be cheap in quality; however, I was pleasantly surprised when this lip balm worked wonders for my lips. They are no longer dry or chapped and the peppermint scent reminds me of the original Bonne Bell peppermint lip smacker lol although this one is slightly stronger. The peppermint plumps my lips while moisturizing and overall my lips have a pink glow to them. Love this product & will r/p. Wears well under lipstick and lip gloss too. If I skip a day w/ out using this balm , my lips still stay moisturized; with other lip balms my lips would be so accustomed that if I missed applying it , my lips would be very dry and chapped. I love the peppermint scent too!

This is my daytime lip balm!! It's super protecting and tingly from the peppermint. I love it during the day, but it's not good for people who have really dry, chapped lips it's more like a "keeping the moisture in" product. I still love it though, I use a more moisturizing lip balm @ night that I keep next to my bed >.< and the next morning I just use this and it's so great and cheap I love this stuff =)

Stolen bases. Not recorded for any league between 1876 and 1885. On the catcher's fielding charts, not available prior to 1978.

Stolen base opportunities: SB + CS + Pickoffs.
The number of team stolen bases accumulated by runners on first base.
The number of team stolen bases accumulated by runners on second base.
The number of team stolen bases accumulated by runners on third base.
Sacrifice flies. The statistical category of "sacrifice flies" did not exist prior to 1954; the concept had been around, on and off, since 1908, but had been always been part of the "SH" category. See SH.
Simple Fielding Runs -- The runs above average contributed by a defender. SFR is a defensive metric currently in a "beta" form based on Retrosheet-style play by play data. SFR for infielders is calculated differently than that for outfielders and for outfielders the metric is park-adjusted.
Sacrifice hits. Not recorded prior to 1894. From 1894-1907, they were essentially the same as the modern rule - a bunt which advanced a baserunner. From 1908-25, they included what we would now call a sacrifice fly (sacrifices increase 25% between 1907 and 1908 as a result). From 1926-30, they included any fly ball on which a runner advanced, not just ones where the runner scored (another 25% increase in 1926). From 1931-38, sacrifice flies were eliminated completely (causing a 45% drop in sacrifices, and a 4-point decline in batting averages); that brought us back to the modern definition of sacrifice hit. In 1939 they re-introduced the run-scoring sac fly (returning to the 1908-25 rules), but eliminated it again in 1940. When sacrifice flies appeared again in 1954, they had their own category, so the rule for what we would call a sacrifice hit has not changed since 1940.
Sacrifice Hit Rate -- Sacrifices per plate appearance
Skill-Interactive Earned Run Average estimates ERA through walk rate, strikeout rate and ground ball rate, eliminating the effects of park, defense and luck.
SIERA accounts for how run prevention improves as ground ball rate increases and declines as more whiffs are accrued, while grounders are of more materiality for those who allow a surplus of runners. The formula for SIERA is:
where the +/- term is a negative sign when (GB-FB-PU)/PA is positive and vice versa.
This was explained in more detail in the following series: part one, part two, part three, part four, and part five.

Similarity Index is a composite of the similarity scores of all of a player's comparables. Similarity index is a gauge of the player's historical uniqueness; a player with a score of 50 or higher has a very common typology, while a player with a score of 20 or lower is historically unusual. For players with a very low similarity index, PECOTA expands its tolerance for dissimilar comparables until a meaningful sample size is established (see Comparable Players).
Similarity Score is a relative measure of a player's comparability. Its scale is very different from the Bill James similarity scores; a score of 100 is assigned to a perfect comparable, while a score of 0 represents a player who is meaningfully similar. Players can and frequently do receive negative similarity scores, and they are dropped from the analysis. A score above 50 indicates that a player is substantially comparable, and scores in excess of 70 are very unusual. The comparable player observations are weighted based on their similarity score in constructing a forecast.
Speed Score (SPD) is one of five primary production metrics used by PECOTA in identifying a hitter's comparables. It is based in principle on the Bill James speed score and includes five components: Stolen base percentage, stolen base attempts as a percentage of opportunities, triples, double plays grounded into as a percentage of opportunities, and runs scored as a percentage of times on base.
The "standard league" is a mythical construction, in which all statistics have been adjusted for easy comparison. Its primary features are that runs scored is 4.5 runs per game; equivalent average is .260; and the pythagorean exponent is exactly 2.00.
The Stars & Scrubs Chart represents the probability that a player will demonstrate a given level of performance over the course of his next five seasons.
In PECOTA, stolen base attempts as a percentage of times on first base.
Strikeouts per plate appearance.
Number of strikes seen (batter) or thrown (pitcher)
A rough indicator of the pitcher's overall dominance, based on normalized strikeout rates, walk rates, home run rates, runs allowed, and innings per game. "10" is league average, while "0" is roughly replacement level. The formula is as follows: Stuff = EqK9 * 6 - 1.333 * (EqERA + PERA) - 3 * EqBB9 - 5 * EqHR9 -3 * MAX{6-IP/G),0}
As listed on a player's PECOTA card, SuperVORP is VORP with additional adjustments for the following: 1) League difficulty. Players in a more difficult league (e.g. the American League) receive a boost in their SuperVORP to reflect their work against tougher competition. 2) Defensive support (for pitchers). A pitcher's BABIP, and therefore his VORP, are affected by his defense. SuperVORP adjusts the pitcher's VORP by assuming he has a league average defense behind him. 3) Fielding runs above average (FRAA) (for position players). The number of runs a player saves or subtracts with his glove, relative to league average, is added to his SuperVORP score. SuperVORP can be thought of as analogous to WARP, but with a higher threshold for replacement level.
