(Updates with scope of yield jump from first paragraph.)
Oct. 13 (Bloomberg) -- Hungary cut its offer of 12-month Treasury bills at a second consecutive auction as financing costs jumped to the highest in two years.
The state today sold 30 billion forint ($141 million) of bills, 10 billion forint less than planned, at an average yield of 6.22 percent, the highest for that maturity since Oct. 29, 2009, according to data from the Debt Management Agency on Bloomberg.
Total bids amounted to 50.2 billion forint, compared with 30.2 billion forint two weeks ago, which was the lowest in more than six years and led the agency to reduce its offer at that sale by 34 percent.
Hungary's currency depreciated 0.7 percent to 292.26 per euro as of 12:19 p.m. in Budapest.

A group that has been trying for years to convert an old shooting range into an artificial-turf soccer stadium at Anchorage's Kincaid Park has reached a deal with federal environmental regulators on lead contaminated soil and plans to conduct tests and cleanup next year.
The group, called the Kincaid Project Group, expects the field to be ready for matches sometime during summer 2011.
Mayor Dan Sullivan said potential quarrels over paying for the cleanup -- which he anticipated costing at least several hundred thousand dollars -- would likely be sorted out by attorneys.
The Kincaid Project Group's plans for the $3 million stadium stalled in 2008 after the group's excavators mishandled soil contaminated by bullet shards from the old biathlon shooting range, according to federal environmental regulators.
Excavators removed, stockpiled and regraded some of the contaminated dirt without regulatory approval. In 2008, regulators stepped in and work stopped. Soil testing showed that lead in some spots on the range far exceed state limits.
Lead exposure can cause brain, blood and kidney damage and is especially dangerous for children, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.
As part of the settlement announced Thursday by the EPA, a fine of more than $63,000 will be split by the Kincaid Project Group, the Municipality of Anchorage, Land Design North and Roger Hickel Contracting Inc. The four parties must also submit a cleanup plan to the EPA within 90 days and begin assessing the site as soon as possible.
Soil sampling would begin next spring, said Peter Van Tuyn, an attorney for the Kincaid Project Group.
"We just ran out of construction season (this year), because you can't do this work if the ground's frozen," Van Tuyn said. "You want to be as quick as you can with it, but you also want to be as thorough as you can."
The total cost and timeline depend on how much -- if any -- additional lead is found at the site, Van Tuyn said. Completing construction on a safe soccer field is the ultimate goal, he said.
Sullivan was hesitant to put a precise price tag on any potential cleanup, but he said he expects it to cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, at a minimum.
"At some point, if it's going to cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, at some point it has to be figured out who pays for what, and why. And we're just not to that point yet," Sullivan said.
If the city pays cleanup costs, it could use money from an emergency reserve fund and charge whomever is found to be legally responsible.
In any case, the stadium will be done in 2011, Van Tuyn said.
Starting next year, it should take four or five weeks to assess the site, Van Tuyn said. The length of any cleanup would be determined by that assessment, he said.
The settlement announced Thursday is for violations of federal hazardous waste management rules in the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the EPA said.
Although the Kincaid Project Group does not admit fault in its agreement with the EPA, Van Tuyn said it agreed to a settlement to keep the project moving forward.
"We would pay a proportionate amount of that, which is twelve-and-a-half thousand dollars, a little bit more," Van Tuyn said. "And we thought, fighting the EPA over this would cost a lot more than that, we're not admitting to anything by signing the consent decree, so let's just get on with looking forward and getting this work done."
According to the EPA, the work at the old biathlon range generated about 30 tons of lead-contaminated hazardous waste soil and debris. Some was properly disposed of, the EPA said, but more cleanup must occur to make the site safe.
That initial cleanup cost the city and Kincaid Project Group about $75,000. Not counting expenses related to lead cleanup, the project has cost about $2 million of its $3 million budget, Van Tuyn said.
The soccer stadium site remains fenced off.

Lea Michele at Target's Feed Collaboration Party
Lea Michele Gets In on the FEED Fun in Brooklyn
Lea Michele donned a hint of red to act as cohost of Target's FEED collaboration party held at Brooklyn Bridge Park yesterday in NYC, where she was joined by FEED's founder and cohost, Lauren Bush Lauren, as well as Sophia Bush, Karlie Kloss, and Mamie Gummer. The Summer soiree in celebration of Target's partnership with the FEED Foundation, which aims to end world hunger, also included a live performance from American Idol's Phillip Phillips. Lea showed her support for the cause on her social media account, writing, "Arrived in Brooklyn for the Target + FEED launch! Honored to be here to host w/ the lovely Lauren Bush to aid hunger relief."
Although Lea was out celebrating a good cause in NYC, the night took an unfortunate turn when she learned the news of James Gandolfini's death.

CMJ Report: Friday [Amy Phillips]
By Amy Phillips and William Kirk on November 12, 2006 at 1:09 p.m. EST
All photos by William Kirk .
The day began within the sterile confines of the Apple Store in SoHo, where the Decemberists made an afternoon appearance. The band was in "stripped-down acoustic storytelling" mode according to a jovial Colin Meloy, which meant Nate Query on upright bass, Jenny Conlee on accordion, John Moen on a single snare drum (played with brushes), new touring member Lisa Molinaro (of fellow Portland band Talkdemonic) on violin, and, of course, both Meloy and Chris Funk on acoustic guitar (Funk picked up a mandolin for a couple songs.)
The six-song set-- comprised of "July, July", "We Both Go Down Together", "The Perfect Crime #2", "Myla Goldberg", "Yankee Bayonet", and "O Valencia!"-- was lovely and subdued, with the Apple Store's excellent sound system coaxing out the nuances of the Decemberists' folksier side.
The Decemberists [Apple Store SoHo; 1 p.m.]
Then it was off to the Lower East Side bar/restaurant Pianos, for an evening showcase of bands from Norway, sponsored by the unlikely tag team of Vice Records and the Norwegian government. The divinely silly Don Juan Dracula kicked off the proceedings with an overload of lo-fi flashiness, doing an OK Go-like synchronized "boy band" dance and ending their set shooting flames out of their guitars. Don Juan's new romantic synth-glam is fun enough on its own, but when augmented by matching white suits, a keytar, and the aforementioned shenanigans, it achieved levels of Darkness-like glory.
Don Juan Dracula [Pianos; 5 p.m.]
Psych-garage dronemeisters the Low Frequency in Stereo were at a distinct disadvantage following Don Juan Dracula's theatrics, as they played lengthy, mostly instrumental soundscapes that grooved along serviceably on heavy reverb and krautrock bass bounce. But, alas, there was no choreography, costumes, or fire.
The Low Frequency in Stereo [Pianos; 6 p.m.]
CMJ show sluts 120 Days closed out the Norwegian festivities with an obscene amount of equipment for such a small space, but they put it to good use, riding their electro-motorik highway into space despite the fact that half of the small crowd was distracted by the free hors d'oeuvres. The band members are far more animated than I anticipated; from the sound of their ultra-cool record, I expected these guys to be wearing sunglasses and leather jackets and to not move from one fixed spot. Instead, they wore schoolboy sweaters and engaged in unabashed headbanging, frantic swaying, and running in place.
120 Days [Pianos; 7 p.m.]
Over at Irving Plaza, the Blow's Khaela Maricich was on a stage 10 times bigger than the basement in which I last saw her perform. Despite the absence of bandmate Jona Bechtolt, Maricich conquered both the stage and the even more enormous room, winning over the crowd with her lo-fi approximations of flashy hip-hop production. During the "Laffy Taffy" rip "True Affection", which closed her set, Maricich lead the audience in a synchronized Miss America/Queen of England wave. Quite a sight to behold.
The Blow [Irving Plaza; 10 p.m.]
I'm a fan of the raw pop-punk of the Grates' debut album Gravity Won't Get You High , and I'd heard about their infamously high-energy live show, but nothing could have prepared me for the performance singer Patience Hodgson gave last night at the Bowery Ballroom. The club had emptied out after Mew's set, leaving a scattered gathering of about 100 fans and curious onlookers. But Hodgson didn't take the diminished crowd as any sort of slight; in fact, she used it to her advantage, turning the Bowery metaphorically into her bedroom, letting us all watch as she bounced on her bed and sang with a hairbrush into the mirror.
As perpetually smiling drummer Alana Skyring and nondescript guitarist John Patterson bashed out their three-chord bursts, Hodgson whirled, jumped, and tore around the stage, long hair flying and tulle skirt fluttering in the self-created breeze. When it came time to play the ballad "Rock Boys", Hodgson leaped down onto the floor, bringing her mic stand and one of those long fluttery ribbon stick toy things out into the middle of the floor of the venue. Surrounded by a circle of happy fans, she sang the song while twirling the ribbon around her head. From my vantage point in the balcony, it looked like the punk rockest maypole dance ever. The most startling aspect of Hodgson's performance was that despite all of her gymnastic moves, her voice remained as strong as on the record.
Hodgson is compared to Karen O quite a bit (for good reason), and though I'm a fan of both and think each woman brings her own unique spin on the crazy-frontperson game, for one night, Hodgson was clearly the better rock star.

The Edith Massey rock the finish line of the Zombie Pub Crawl with the Vistas.
Feb 19
Wednesday, February 19th Dempsey's Public House (Aquarium night) FREE 10 pm 21+ Our February edition of Aquarium night at Dempsey's (where bands play for no cover once a month on Wednesdays downstairs) features Pontiak, a neo-psychedelic rock band of three brothers from the Blue Ridge Mountain area of Virginia. Around for almost a decade, the band will release their 8th LP "Innocence" on January 28th at Thrill Jockey Records. If you like raw, loud acts like the Stooges, MC5, Queens of the Stone Age etc, you will love Pontiak and best of all you get to see them for free, which means more money for drinks. Pre-game with $1 tacos from 4 to 9 pm before the show. Get loud and weird with Pontiak on February 19. "Incandescence in the Age of Fluorescence." Under the Radar "For all of their affinity for murky, sludgy sounds, Pontiak roars away with remarkable precision, pulling off that men-as-machine ethos quite convincingly. Maybe it's a sibling thing?" – San Francisco Bay Guardian LINKS: http://www.facebook.com/BrothersPontiak

Re: Cards you've laid out to pasture (September 2012 edition)
I will be the oddball for the thread, I am cancelling my AMEX Gold Premier Rewards before the AF hits (2/13). I just don't use it enough to justify the $175.00 AF. I am thinking about cancelling it now, and taking the prorated AF to use towards the upgrade fee for the AMEX Hilton Honors Surpass. I have the regular HH card and use it frequently. Not really concerned about losing one AMEX, as I will still have HH and BCP. I am planning on apping for the Starwood card, probably in February.

I will rejoice in the quiet, and luxuriate on the smoothness of the road.
I will rejoice all the way to the REAL most dangerous intersection in Madison, which is the Borders/Copps/Walgreens bermuda triangle of traffic, where noone signals, people suddenly emerge in your path without looking, and then all the bikes ignore the stopsign at the back of the lot.

Source: Demi Moore & Ryan Rottman's Night Out Didn't Cross the Line
With news that Demi Moore is seeking treatment for exhaustion and to improve her overall health, many reports have come out detailing the days leading up to her hospitalization Monday.
People reports how Demi was partying at Beecher's Madhouse at the Roosevelt Hotel on Jan. 11 with daughter Rumer Willis, 23, and a few of Rumer's friends including 90210 actor Ryan Rottman.
"She found ways to touch him all night, and at one point when he was in front of her, she was grinding on his butt," the magazine reports.
Here is what a source also at the table tells Celebuzz:
"Demi was out and having a good time, but she wasn't out of control or anything," our insider says. "She was dancing with Ryan, but it didn't cross the line and get inappropriate--everyone was just having fun. Ryan is one of Rumer's best friends, that's it."
In fact, a second source tells Celebuzz that Ryan and girlfriend Victoria Justice are "happy as ever" together. Check out Ryan and Victoria out together below.

Clearwater, FL July 25, 2006: On the heels of his IBA World Title bout, power-punching Cruiserweight Bobby Gunn received much deserved worldwide recognition by the WBO. Much like the heavy-fisted Gunn cracks his opponents in the ring, he has now cracked the World Boxing Organizations July 2006 rankings at number 15 in the world in what the WBO calls the Jr. Heavyweights.. In addition to this WBO ranking, Bobby Gunn is currently ranked #1 by the Canadian Boxing Federation, #1 by the Boxing Union of Ireland, #13 by the NABA, #14 by the NABF, and #32 by the WBC. Of course, Team Gunn is thrilled by this latest development. Bobby Gunns promoter, Joe Mack McEwen of Rock Solid Boxing commented, We appreciate and respect the WBO and applaud their recognition of Bobby Gunn. We are totally focused on the upcoming IBA World Title fight against Shannon Landberg, but it is always nice to take a moment and realize all of Team Gunns efforts and hard work are finally coming to fruition. Just like the Gatti-Baldomir WBC/IBA Welterweight unification fight this past Saturday night, we are very interested in making this September 16th IBA World Title bout a unification fight as well by adding a Regional Title from the WBO to this event. I have contacted the WBO in an attempt to make that happen. While being recognized worldwide is always positive and exciting, Bobby Gunn is keeping his eye on the prize. Bobby Gunns father, the Senior Gunn who goes by the monikor Yogi had this to say, Bobby is very thankful and grateful for the top 15 ranking by the WBO. We have roots and a following in Europe and we look forward to future fights across the pond. However, Bobby is really only focused on September 16, Shannon Landberg and the IBA World Championship. This opportunity that Rock Solid Boxing has presented to my boy is by far the biggest fight of his career. He is looking great in the gym and Joe Grier is training Bobby like a madman! I have never seen Bobby so sharp. He is ready and could fight tomorrow. With all of the recent action in the Cruiserweight division, it appears that the Jr. Heavyweights are on the verge of making some Heavyweight noise.

text: Hey guys, just wanted to throw it out there that I'm planning to buy 2 front 5100s from DSM clicked up to 1.5". I'm hoping by doing that, I can achieve that level look with a stock rear. I have NOT done TSB either. I'm also going to replace the stock 265/70/16s with 265/75/16s to give about another .5" so in theory my ultimate goal is to get about 2" of lift from the stock height. I don't wheel, but I do have to use 4x4 in the mud every now and then. I don't really want to go much higher than 2" so I"m thinking i can just leave the rear alone and not order anything for it. Whatcha think? I can't wait to give it a whirl! I'm planing to get the GOODYEAR WRANGLER TDs btw. Thomas PICS ARE HERE....ended up with the DURATRACS in 265/75/16 with front setting at .85" I'll try to take more if I can ever get home from work when it's light out

hedge your bets and go 50/50 south and west. Maybe 50% southwest, 25% west, 25% south and setup a water wheel and perhaps an agrarian society.
A course in financial math would be helpful as well. the reasoning holds only if the grid overpays electricity according to source (gee, who would have thunk it?), otherwise the best thing would be to maximize production (i.e. set panels facing local south) and "time shift" to use as much of the self produced electricity as possible: producing hot water, setting up the laundry machine to start the cycle at 12.30

Mini guide to Porto and the Douro, Portugal
Named after one of the founders of Vila Nova de Gaia's most famous port lodges, Taylor's, The Yeatman was the first top-end hotel in town. Tucked into the Gaia hillside, it has magnificent views, as well as a Michelin-starred restaurant (the-yeatman-hotel.com; Rua do Choupelo; from £170).
When to go
Spring and early summer are great times to visit – the weather is routinely warm, but the river breeze means that it never reaches the baking temperatures of high summer. Porto's biggest festival is the Festa de São João, held on 23 and 24 June – expect music, medieval folk plays and fireworks all night (visitportugal.com).
How to go
Francisco de Sá Carneiro, just outside of Porto, is the main international airport. Flights from Gatwick are available with easyJet (from £95; easyjet.com) and TAP (from £125; flytap.com), while Ryanair flies there from Stansted (from £140; ryanair.com).

College of Law › About the College of Law › News, Events, and Multimedia › News › "Breathtaking" Scenery and Grassroots Outrage: Tar Creek "Toxic Tour" and Fishing Tournament
Tuesday, April 13, 1999
Published on 4/13/99
It started as a plan to hold a fishing tournament in a "fishless," polluted creek. It grew into a grassroots environmental movement and a national conference with a profound message: "Don't play here; its deadly."
Oklahoma's Ottawa County is one of the most environmentally ravaged communities in the nation. Beneath the surface of farms in Picher, Cardin and Commerce, more than 26 billion gallons of acidic water fill up the empty lead, zinc and cadmium mines abandoned by hundreds of mining companies decades after the industry's heyday.
Insidious seepage runs into Tar Creek and flows orange as a basketball. Just beyond the backyard fences of homes and schools, millions of cubic yards of mining waste, or "chat piles," loom.
A 10-K run and bike race will be staged Saturday, April 17, in the shadows of the butte-sized toxic piles. Riders must wear hospital masks to protect themselves from the dangerous dust, giving a whole new meaning to the concept of "breathtaking" scenery.
"The levels of environmental damage and evil in Ottawa County are astounding," says Jason Aamodt, research fellow with TU's National Energy-Environment Law Policy Institute (NELPI). "This could be one of the most polluted places on earth."
But you don't hear much about that. After all, Ottawa County is tucked away in the far northeastern corner of the state, nowhere in sight of an interstate, and most of the land is owned by members of tribal communities that have historically lacked the political muscle to effect change. Though landowners and citizens have been trying desperately to rectify the situation and hold some entity accountable, 20 years after being named a Superfund site and millions of dollars in remediation later, cleanup has been declared a failure.
"It's an appalling situation," says Earl Hatley, Environmental Program Director of the Quapaw Nation, who complained that the EPA waited until the mid-1990s to review the work it finished in 1986. "They left for an entire decade and nothing happened."
Rebecca Jim, a counselor at Miami High School, and Hatley are members of a local concerned citizens group called the Cherokee Volunteers. They came up with the idea for the "Toxic Tour." By creating a running, biking and fishing event around the blighted landscape of Ottawa County's abandoned mines, acid marshes and chat piles, they hoped to attract attention beyond their rural community.
The full-scale human tragedy of living one's entire life with lead contamination has yet to be realized, but what is known is the toll its taking on the community's children. High lead levels have been found in 70 percent of the children in the area, leading to kidney damage, hypertension and lost IQ. "We don't know how much damage has been done," says Jim. "There are a lot of insidious consequences later in life. My first priority is to educate the kids and their parents regarding the danger." Education programs include children's handwashing, explaining to parents why they must wash toys children bring in the house, and what to do to keep the dog from tracking contaminated dirt indoors. To Jim, every IQ point matters.
Though four years of Toxic Tours have not brought great attention to the community, residents' perseverance and dedication to the well-being of the children and land has. And with the help of NELPI, they have launched their first national conference on the subject.
Titled, "Abandoned Mine Reclamation: A Case Study of Tar Creek," the conference will be held April 15-16 in Miami, Okla., and feature speakers including Scott Thompson, Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality; Jerry Clifford, Environmental Protection Agency; Dave Askman with the Department of the Interior; Lloyd Landreth from the Tulsa law firm Gardere & Wynne, L.L.P.; and professors from The University of Tulsa, the University of Oklahoma and Harvard University. The Toxic Tour gets underway at 9 a.m. on Saturday, April 17, in Miami.
During the past few months, NELPI has worked with the Quapaw Nation to develop a comprehensive understanding of the legal framework within which past Tar Creek legal actions were taken, and to ascertain new avenues for remedial solutions. Bringing attention to the situation is the first step.
Additional Points of Interest: • The Quapaw Nation, comprised of 2,500 members, own 12,000 acres within the waste site. They are headquartered in Quapaw, Okla., near Miami. • Tar Creek is on the EPA's "Top 10" environmental problems list and from 1981-83 was declared the most polluted site in America. • Tar Creek is just as polluted now as it was 20 years ago. • The Quapaws have the authority to assert their sovereign governmental rights and NELPI is representing the tribe in its efforts to do this through an upcoming Natural Resources Damage Assessment (NRDA) action. • Love Canal is the nation's most famous Superfund site. The Exxon Valdez is a prime example of a NRDA action.
Editors Notes: • Find quick-load or high-resolution Tar Creek images and articles on the web at www.nelpi.org/tarcreek • Reporters are welcome to contact Aamodt, Jim or Hatley directly for quotes or more information about the week's activities at the following numbers: Jason Aamodt – (918) 631-3049 work, (918) 664-2880 home; Rebecca Jim – (918) 542-4421 work, (918) 256-5269; or Earl Hatley – (918) 542-1853 work, (918) 256-5269 home.

Eye on Business: Kidstructive Fun
Every once in a while a great white shark gets loose in the Champlain Center Mall in Plattsburgh and gracefully swims through the air, delighting unsuspecting observers. There is no danger present; the creature is merely a rare species of floating shark, an inhabitant of a toy store called Kidstructive Fun. Clearly, this isn't your average toy store. There are no blinking lights, no buzzing noises and no video games to greet visitors.

The Council
A hero like Soraka has alot of freedom when choosing Masteries, Runes and items. I have tried many different builds with her, with a varying degree of success. #1: Masteries and summoner spells. Utility seems like her best tree, but you can choose between the other 2 for the rest of your points. Offense is great for the reduced cooldowns Sorcery confers, but the defensive improvements of the Defence tree can make her a real tank. I usually take Offense up until the MGR piercing talent, and Utility up until Presence of the Master. Regarding spells, almost all the spells are have a use. Teleport and Fortify are great for saving towers, teleport is also handy for many other things. Smite and Heal help your earlygame a lot, but Heal is less useful on her then on others IMO. Promote and Rally are great, since they add more power to towerpushing and teamfights, 2 things Soraka should be trying to do all game. Clairvoyance can be useful for her. I don't use Revive, Ghost or Exhaust on her, they don't seem to synergize. #2: Runes Cooldown reduction! It's the number 1 stat you need from your runes, as Soraka really loves this stat. I enjoy having the rest as AP and random defensive stats. Spell penetration can be useful, but it's not necessary. It's not you who benefit the most from your MGR reduction anyway, it's your allies. You can build her 100% defensivly with runes, but IMO it's better to refresh Wish as often as possible. #3: Items! Now here is where the real challenge starts. Let's split it up: Starting items: I find that I almost always buy Mana Manipulator first. Helps you and your ally lane (don't solo), and builds into the very handy Soul Shroud (aura of cooldown reduction and +health). You can also turn it into an Innervating Locket if you want to. I also tried getting a Tear of the Godess ASAP, getting Fairy Charm early. It works for her, but IMO Soul Shroud is a more important "first" item. Boots: I usually get Mercury Treads. You will be running in and out of enemy range alot in order to position for starfall and cast your spells on allies, so getting out of stuns etc. quickly is invaluable. Boots of Swiftness work as well, as does Ninja Tabi, if you are facing a lot of ranged physical damage, or great chasers such as Yi. Mid game: After Soul Shroud/Tear of Godess/Locket, you either finish your Archangel staff, or buy something big thats useful. I find that sneaking a Fiendish Codex into my build helps, as Cooldown reduction is great, and you can't go wrong with the AP. Glacial Shroud is a great midgame item, especially since Frozen Heart is so good. IF you are building for the Heart, you don't need other Cooldown reduction items, so it's good if you took Tear of the Godess early. If you are going on the offense in teamfights, Abyssal Scepter is a great item as well. The MGR reduction stacks with Starfalls reduction, opening your enemies up to your allied Nukers. AP and MGR are also core stats. I plan to try Cloak of Flames on her, but it would likely only work if you already have Abyssal Scepter. Lategame: If it got this far, it's not that good for Soraka. Anything that gives a good chunk of AP or appropriate defense is good, as enemies will usually be dealing a lot of damage by this point, but Wish should be usable very often, with its monster AP scaling. So that's my current experience. Will update as I continue to play.

spells: heal: i take heal cause i feel soraka needs some instant heals in tight situations, her ulti has a much lower cooldown but doesn't outdo heal til later in the game and early game i often need the heal to save/boost team mates. Rally: Im a bit at a loss as what to pick as my 2nd, ive picked rally for even more heal, but the damage bonus also helps alot in team fights(i just need to remember to use it more) uh and i won a soraka vs soraka showdown because of it, where i was a couple of levels lower :-P Runes: i mix/match my runes to hit 9% cd reduction at lvl 18, then go for 4.5ms in quints, mr in the seals and little bit of as at the end(for no good reason really). Masteries: i go 0/7/23 the most important bits are as follows: Intelligence: 6% cd reduction to hit 15% with runes Strength of sprirt: 0,3%hp regen of max mana. this is really nice and, when coupled with bless, allow soraka to completly ignore hp regen items Expanded mind: 5% max mana this helps soraka with both hp regen and more staying power before she goes oom in long/rapid team fight where she has to use infuse on team mates/opponents Quickness: along with the rune setup, this allows soraka to use speed 1 boots as speed 2 boots. items: #1tear of the goddess its a really nice item which only gets better as the game progresses i find having a large(and full) manapool allows me to use infuse more offensively. #2boots with the 4.5% ms from the quints this is as good as having speed 2 boots, so i dont upgrade them straight away. I wait and see what problems im facing the most and what team setup the opposition have. #3 Rylais scepter the first big item i get is the scepter the hp really helps survival, spamming starfall in team fight(even a low level starfall) helps slowdown the opponents so my team mates can better take them down(it even results in the occasional ks, which only helps sorakas economy) and when chasing down fleeing opponents infuse is handy for that 40% ms reduction, infuse also has the longest ranged, this couples with the 4.5 ms from quints helps soraka chase down and slow opponents so the rest of the team can get at them, it also allows her to run besides multiple fleeing opponents while spamming starfall and not falling behind. #4 Fiendish codex At this point my spells often start lacking potency so the boost in ap helps out and the cd reduction helps soraka in her spell spamming and the the mana regen helps keep your mana up allow you to use Infuse on other team mates and/or enemies #5 Stinger the attack speed helps farming and adds a little more punch to soraka in fight where she does use her regular attack. Its by far not the main reason for the choice of item, more and added bonus. mana regen is the same as above for the codex, entering a fight with full mana allows for really agressive starfall spamming and silencing. The most important benefit is the cd reduction, we are now closing in on th 40% cap by reaching 35%(at lvl 18). Item notes: once you've gotten the core items you can start upgrading : #1 tear of the goddess => Archangel staff more mana, more mana regen and the most important thing: a good shunk of much needed ap, i always upgrade this right after boots #2 Boots => what ever if i feel i can get away with it i often upgrade the boots into boots of mobility to make up for my lack of teleport, it has surved me well so far. never ever go boots of swiftness with this setup, with 4.5% ms from quints the deminishing returns on speed will make any speed 2 boots more viable as they all come with an added bonus. #5 Stinger => Nashor's tooth this adds a nice ap bonus and at this point in the game the more ap you can get the better. You finally hit the 40%cd recution cap. the extra attack speed is a small bonus. #6 ? you may have noticed i have no 6th item, i feel the above build is very viable and good and is achivable in a normal game and allows for decent upgrades if the game drags out. i have experimented with philosopher's stone and heart of gold for the extra gold income. i have the best results with the heart of gold as the survivability it adds is a great boon early game aswell as late game. Its not in my main build as i feel it delays her to much in her game plan as it takes 33 minutes for the heart of gold to pay itself back, so you are basically delaying all items be 33 minutes where after you start to feel the extra gold. The philosopher's stone is nice but ultimatly not needed its very expensive and even early game soraka doesn't need the extra hp/mp regen and this just delays other items even further. you could god for the lucky pick, being a cheap money items which add a litle extra ap, but i have personally not had much succes with that, if i have to go for a money item i say go for the heart. or you can buy a blasting wand and see how much cash you can get and build a big ap item Zhonya's ring for example, but getting enough gold for this aswell as the rest is unrealistic. Enjoy the wall'o'text :-) Erk edit: changing wish to infuse, somehow i got the names mixed up, sorry if it confused some people :-/
I've recently experimented with Guinsoo's Rageblade and some AP items. Works decently, I have to say AP was better for her then I expected. Will continue testing.
Best build for Soraka is to pick a different champ LOLS
You guys are insane if you think she is worthless lategame. Ever seen a Wish bring an entire team from near death to near full? How about every 35th second?
36 secs actually and yes I have
Starcall gets a noticable contribution from it, it's around 0.25, but since you cast it so much its ok. Astral Blessing gets 1/12th of your AP every one of its 12 seconds. It can actually heal quite alot if you have the AP for it. Wish heals for double your AP. I dunno man, I think its ok. Try playing her seriously next time.

The Internet has gone wild since Michael Jackson, the "King of Pop," was reported dead on June 25. Symantec Security Response has already blogged about how we observed spammers trying to capitalize on this event in many ways, both with messages including malware, and scams tied to this talented celebrity's death. We expect that spam and malware will keep coming in, given Michael Jackson's popularity and following. Recipients should be extra cautious about messages that appear to be related to Jackson's death, especially any email that comes from an unknown or unexpected source.
The following are some examples of what we have seen circulating:
Sample 1.1
Spammers hide behind a spoofed message, which appears as a rip-off of a familiar social network notification, in an attempt to try to trick recipients to open a malicious URL.
Sample 1.2
Spammers are disguised as a press organization and attempt to lead recipients to a malicious URL (jackson.com is detected as W32.HLLP.Sality.O).

Happy 4th of July Weekend everyone!
I'll check in later.
I'll check in later.
General Diet Plans and Questions - *Slimfasters - July*View Full Version : *Slimfasters - July* southerndeb 07-02-2006, 12:50 PM Happy 4th of July Weekend everyone! I'll check in later. southerndeb 07-03-2006, 01:44 PM I'm up one lb but I know why! :p I will do better. The good news is I went shopping yesterday and am down one size in clothes! That is a big thrill for me! I no longer have to shop in the "womens" section and can go straight to "misses". Why the two departments are named that way I will never understand. I would like to lose 10 by July 24th. We will be going on vacation and I will be in a bathing suit every day. How is everyone else doing? Anyone else up to a challenge? Exercise? Water? Lbs lost? Let me know! Idrial 07-05-2006, 12:31 PM Congratulations on losing a size! I haven't weighed the last few days but I feel kind of puffy today. I had popcorn the other night and I think it's caught up with me :( I have trouble having a shake for lunch. I seem to always be really hungry at noon so I'm going to switch my shake to dinner. My doctor has lost around 60 pounds and did it with slimfast. He's a big proponent of the sf program. I was kind of surprised to hear a dr. actually use it and suggest it for patients. I was impressed! 2muchbackend 07-06-2006, 12:37 AM Idrial do you do the meal plan on slimfast.com? Because it will have you eat more than just a shake for lunch like on mine I have a shake and a sandwich and it's pretty cool you can customize it and it's all free. I'm back with the slimfast I was trying the Michael Thurmond 6 week body makeover but I cannot do it it's crazy. I was starved!! So I'm back to slimfast. Well talk to you all later. Idrial 07-06-2006, 11:04 AM No, I don't do that plan but that's a great idea. I haven't visited their site in quite a while. I will go check it out. I feel good today. I think switching the meals around will help simply because I'm hungrier in the middle of the day and the late afternoon is my binge-danger time zone. If I eat a bigger lunch, I seem to do better. I've not heard of the Michael Thurmond makeover. I think of all the programs out there though, slimfast is the least complicated, the least stressful. I need that! southerndeb 07-07-2006, 09:56 AM Hello Idrial and 2much I use the slimfast web site too. So many great tools at no cost, yea! It really helps me to have a meal plan worked out for me. You have to do what works and feels right for your body. I will be out of town all of next week on vacation. I will check back in next Sun. :wave: Until then - continued success to us all!! Deb KimmyKat63 07-16-2006, 05:38 PM Hi everyone, I am starting the SF diet tomorrow (got some ice cream to get rid of first *lol*). I need to remove 50-65 lbs and I'd like to get it done by my birthday in December. My name is Kim, I'm 42 and I live near Salt Lake City Utah and I have 2 teenage boys (14 and 16), a DH, and two kitties. I currently work in manufacturing on the swing shift but in two weeks I will have a new job at a Life Time Fitness center which will pay less but is closer to home and day shift. I need to work days so I can see that these boys get their high school diplomas someday soon! I am 5'9" and weighed in this morning at 220.4 lbs. I have been as high as 250 and as low as 147. 165 is a good weight for me, my Dr. says between 160 and 200 is fine. I have type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure that I take meds for and I am a member of Curves where I exercise 3 times a week. I will get a free membership at Life Time for working there so that will add some variety. I also live 2 miles away so I plan to get a bicycle soon and ride to work. I also have several pair of Victoria's Secret jeans in size 10 waiting for me to wear again ;) Anyway, it's nice to "meet" you and I'm excited to get on board. southerndeb 07-17-2006, 10:05 AM Hi all, Welcome Kim! I stayed the same after my week away. I was visiting family and their house is full of junk food. I went way off my program and am very surprised that I stayed the same!! I leave for vacation next Monday so I have one week to lose a few. Hope everyone has a great day. Deb Idrial 07-17-2006, 11:07 AM Kim, we have some things in common! I am trying to lose the same weight range for my birthday in December (31st) and I have a 16 year old son. I also have an autoimmune disease like you, but mines rheumatoid arthritis. I saw a rheumatologist last week and I'm on some medicines now but that shouldn't affect my weight (I hope ;)). Anyway, the PA I saw said I need to be getting some of this weight off and my general doctor has said the same. I'm 5'4" and weigh around 180. I do really well on slimfast, but I've been doing some junk food eating lately and it sure is making me bloated and pudgy! I just finished my morning slimfast and I'm determined to stay on course this time. It's too darned hot to be this heavy. I notice I can't handle the heat nearly as well as I did when I was thinner. Deb, GREAT JOB on staying the same! It's tough when you're away from home. I think that is my biggest challenge. I'm renting a house about 75 miles away and I'll be away from the internet from the first part of August until the end of August. My son has some daily classes and work up there and it's way too expensive to drive back and forth. We're thinking of getting a notebook so maybe I can get wifi at some of the cyber cafes. Don't know if I'll have it by then or not. southerndeb 07-20-2006, 08:47 PM Hi all, Kim and Idrial how are you doing? Kim, best of luck with your new job, what a wonderful atmosphere to work in to help you reach your goals. Idrial, have you stayed on course?? Hope everyone is doing well. I'm getting ready for Hawaii, we leave on Monday. I won't have any shakes but I am going to eat well and walk and swim and enjoy myself. I'll check in tomorrow. Jalene5 07-24-2006, 02:19 PM Hi girls! I am starting SF today. I have 26 yo, one child (18 months). I want to lose 30 lbs. I am currently weighing it at an all time high of 163. My problem is that I eat too much convenience food. I am always on the go!! So I am going to do a SlimFast shake for breakfast and dinner (I always eat a good lunch). I am addicted to food. I use for to make me happy, feel better, hide real emotions, etc. In the end though, I am not happy, I don't feel better, and the real emotions are still there. I am sick of falling of the "wagon". Do any of you have any suggestions that would help me stick to this goal? Thanks and good luck to all of you! Jalene vBulletin® v3.6.7, Copyright ©2000-2015, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

Gear Question
im about 5'9 5'10 180 should i cop the 155...
im about 5'9 5'10 180 should i cop the 155 or the 151 I ride park and just like to jib stuff im used to a smaller board but im not sure if the 151 would be too small
Kris McGregor
I ride a Rome Machine 154W and im pretty maxed out on the weight side and im only 6' 165lbs. All I really ride is park and the 154 suites me just perfect. With rocker boards you are able to ride something up to 5cm shorter than your average deck or 'deck that you should be using'. But I would go for the 155 just to be safe. You could ride the 151 seeing as it has 'chilli dog', but I dunno if the deck will hold your weight, spesh on pressed and landing off of kickers. Hope this helps bro
Wooden Robots
The 155 is the right board for you. It will be big enough for powder and small enough for the park no problem. This board is legit and has a great predictable flex. You'll love it.

Jack Dougherty, Associate Professor of Educational Studies at Trinity College
and Harber Fellow in Education and Entrepreneurship, Wesleyan Univ., Spr 2015
personal website, email, phone 860-655-0982, appointment calendar
Description: In this seminar, we will investigate an increasingly popular reform movement — choice — to better understand what happens when educators act more like entrepreneurs in competing for students, how families navigate both schooling and housing markets, and the outcomes of recent policy innovations. Drawing from the disciplines of history, sociology, and government, we will compare and contrast choice models that have been promoted by charter schools, magnet schools, and move-to-opportunity housing experiments. Teams of student researchers will conduct quantitative analyses of choice data and qualitative interviews with parents and stakeholders in Hartford. Enrollment limited to 19.
Additional requirements: Students are expected to arrange a one-time field visit to Hartford to conduct interviews or site visits related to our research project. The instructor will assist students with scheduling and coordinating transportation.
For each class session, students must bring a laptop (Mac, Windows, or Chromebook) to in-class writing, peer review, and data analysis. Let me know if you need to borrow one.
Assignments: Weekly response papers/online reading quizzes, two short essays, one final project essay
Full syllabus will be posted here by January 28th. See Trinity syllabi from prior years.
UPDATE: 19 students have received permission to enroll, and no seats are currently open. To request a spot on my informal wait list: Explain your academic interests, related coursework, and/or relevant experiences via email to firstname.lastname@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com

(Trenton, NJ) -- New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has a lawsuit on his hands. The Public Employees' Retirement System that oversees the state's largest public employee pension fund has voted six to nothing to sue the Republican leader over his plans to cut more than two-billion-dollars from the state pension system over two years.

After the Bangalore Metropolitan Task Force (BMTF) registered two FIRs (first information reports) against him, its gloves off for Siddaiah, Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) Commissioner.
In a letter to Chief Secretary S.V. Ranganath on Monday, Mr. Siddaiah has alleged that BMTF chief R.P. Sharma was conspiring against him and thus registered the FIRs against him without conducting any enquiry into the complaints.
"He conspired against me because of the decision I took in cancelling his site allotment when I was the Commissioner of Bangalore Development Authority," he said. Mr. Siddaiah said that Mr. Sharma was allotted a site in Visvesvaraya Layout. However, on enquiry, the BDA found that he had filed a false affidavit since his wife Nagalambika Devi was allotted a site by the Metropolitan Cooperative Housing Society in H.S.R. Layout. After the site allotment was cancelled, the deposit was forfeited.
He has urged Mr. Ranganath to initiate action against Mr. Sharma for submitting a false affidavit to the BDA.

Hi I was just at the Asheville (NC) Habitat For Humanity retail store, and they've got these trees out front. They're asking 2 for $5.00 but will be willing to bargain. The trees are in about 2 gallon pots and are about 5 feet tall, about 1 inch caliper. They just gave me an oak because I bought a table inside. Hope someone can give the rest a good home! Quercus michauxii Platanus occidentalis Fraxinus pennsylvanica Here's their website |

Aside from the ash, which is doomed from EAB at some point or another...why not? Do they look decent or are they on their last leg? Q. michauxii - one of my FAVORITE oaks. I have several seedings I sprouted this spring...one of them is apparently a mutant as it is nearly 3' tall and still growing, the others are all around 12" or so. |

2 gallon pot for a one inch trunk.. isnt much root mass for that sized tree ... but at that price.. who cares .. skip the ash ... ken |

No ash. You will have a tree which needs a bath in poison every year to even stand a chance. |
Great deal on that oak- 2 gallon pot for one inch trunk, Ken may say isn't much root mass for 1 inch trunk, but , my experience of big box store oaks is usually one gallon root mass for 5 ft and above tree. So I figure that tree Sw Ch Oak I hope does great with lots of irrigation. |

Publisher's Description
This application was originally made for those Camino users that want to stay on the bleeding edge of development and have to backup and restore there bookmarks, preferences and cookie preferences manually every time they download a nightly build. And I know it takes a lot of mouse clicks to do that. But of course anybody with the desire to backup can use it.
This little script automates the whole backup process for you. It will backup your files to a folder (whose name is the date on which the backup was done). And it will enable you to restore your files from this folder. How easy could it be?
What's new in this version:
This latest version of Camino Backup & Restore has been updated for the latest official release of Camino 0.7.

The importer, Bugaboo Americas, announced the recall after receiving 58 reports that the carrying handle detaching unexpectedly. No injuries were reported to the company.
A button in the handle could break loose posing a choking hazard and the handle could detach unexpectedly causing the child to fall. Replacing the carrying handle is expected to prevent potential choking hazards and fall dangers. Bugaboo International B.V., located in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, is the manufacturer of the Bugaboo strollers.
The strollers were sold at Buy Buy Baby, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Toys R Us, and other specialty baby retail store locations nationwide. The strollers were also sold online at Bugaboo.com and at other online retailers. The recalled Bugaboo Cameleon strollers were sold between September 2009 and June 2012 at around $980. The recalled Bugaboo Donkey strollers were sold between January 2011 and December 2012 at a price range of $1,200 to $1,600.

Learn to Spin Yarn / Drop Spindle Angora Kit |
No reviews yet. Be the first. |
Included in each spinning kit is a drop spindle, directions and enough fiber to learn to spin your own yarn.
This listing is for 1 new Drop Spindle Spinning Kit with Incredibly Soft Angora Rabbit Fiber from my bunnies. Choose from white, grey, chestnut agouti or fawn angora.
Included in this kit is 1 new handmade wooden top drop spindle with a 2 1/2 inch whorl and 12 inch stick. The weight of the spindle is approximately 2.1 ounces. Also included is 1 full ounce of carded incredibly soft angora rabbit fiber.
Angora is one of the softest and warmest fibers in the world. Angora yarn will develop a natural halo when spun into yarn and worn, which is what angora is prized for. Directions I wrote for using a top drop spindle are also included. Everything including a small photo of the rabbit that the fiber came from comes in a gallon size zip lock bag. I also attached a leader yarn to your spindle so that you are ready to begin spinning immediately. I run a small smoke free fiber ranch at the foot of the Big Horn Mountains of Wyoming. All of my animals are part of the family and treated with respect and care.
