Three men face murder trial in April
MIDDLEBURG — A Beavertown man will go to trial for murder after a judge rejected a bid to have the charges against him dropped. Snyder County Senior Judge Louise Knight denied the request by 38-year-old Christopher Aucker.
He will now be tried along with 37-year-old Robert Reich of Beavertown and 36-year-old Ryan Sprenkel of Middleburg. The three men are accused in the beating death of 22-year-old Donald Seebold III of New Berlin in July of 1997. Trial is scheduled for late April. The men were charged last year following a state grand jury investigation. (Ali Stevens)

I'm finally in New York City! I came with a bag of cameras, some walking shoes, a little nostalga and virtually no plan. I couldn't be happier about that last part. All I wanted to do was wander the city and see what treasures are to be found. Painting really took my summer over and I didn't do nearly as much shooting as I would have liked so I've been looking forward to this long weekend for months. I love New York, and who doesn't? It lives & breathes more than any other city.
I'll be back with more photos from the trip next week but in the meantime, these are some of my favorite finds from this week….
A short history of manipulated photos aka life before Photoshop.
Drugged self-portraits by artist Bryan Lewis Saunders. An experiment in art gone slightly wrong but resulting in some pretty spectacular self-portraits.
The New York Public Library has an amazing digital gallery with thousands of historical digitized images. An old-fashioned Pinterest, but more interesting.
A short interview with one of my favorite photographers, Todd Selby, about his new book with beautiful photos of food.

Claude VonStroke: "My Dream Has Always Been to Make Tracks With Rappers"
Claude VonStroke, the Claudefather of Dirtybird records, the big guy behind the ghetto-booty-tech madness that defies genre limitations, is enjoying some highly-deserved time in the spotlight. He's built his empire from the ground up for years, and 2013 has seen him reap serious benefits.
But it wasn't always that way. Just a few years ago, most people had never heard of Dirtybird or VonStroke. Put him on a big stage among big names, and he all but fell into the cracks of the sidewalk. With much dedication, perseverance, and oodles of talent, he's turned his luck around and taught American masses to stray from the shallow end. But now, he wants to make moves again - into the rap game?
We submit to you part two of our recent Claudeversation.
See also: Claude VonStroke on Internet-Era Music: "There's Only Beatport or iTunes Albums"
Crossfade: It seems like you've been coming to Miami a lot recently. Where is this coming from?
VonStroke: I don't know, because I used to never go to Miami.
I think you've been here at least 3 or 4 times already if not more.
Well, we had our DB party at the winter music conference in march
And New Years.
Oh yeah, we had New Years there, you're right. Two before March is even over, and then I played at Story, and then maybe somewhere else or no? Then Story two times, I think?
Story twice.
And then I'm playing Grand Central for the album tour. So yeah, that's way more than I could ever imagine being in Miami. But this is important, because I'm actually trying to become more of a USA-based DJ. In the beginning of my career, I sent everything to Germany and England, and I wanted to be big in Europe. That actually worked out really well because that's where all the scene was, and I got reimported back into America, kind of in a reverse way. But I live in America, so at the end of the day, I actually would rather play in America. It makes a lot more sense to try to make it in America, because that's where I'm from.
I've heard a lot of act, not just dance music, will catch a break in Europe first because maybe it's an easier market to break into.
I don't know if it's easier. It's just they're more accepting of underground dance music. That's what it is, and I knew that so I sent all the music there, you know what I'm saying? It's easier market for independent music, so I guess it is easier.
The first time I saw you play was at EDC Orlando which was almost like three years ago, and it was a small crowd for you and right after that was Calvin Harris who had like a bajillion people, and it's funny now because you're playing clubs like Story more times than you can even remember, almost the same crowd Calvin would be getting, not the same people coming to your show...
I don't think it's the same crowd. I think the crowd that recognizes our sound has gotten bigger. They're willing, which is crazy. I can't believe it.

Yields: 8 cakes
Oven Temp: 325
U.S. | Metric | Conversion chart |
- 1 cup(s) cake flour
- 1.00 tablespoon(s) cake flour
- 1.50 cup(s) sugar
- 12.00 large egg whites, room temperature
- 1.00 tablespoon(s) warm water
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) coarse salt
- 1.00 teaspoon(s) cream of tartar
- 1.00 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
- 6 cup(s) confectioners' sugar
- 3/4 cup(s) lemon juice
- Spun Sugar
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F, with rack positioned in lower third of oven. Sift flour and 3/4 cup sugar into a medium bowl. Repeat sifting four times.
- Beat egg whites and the warm water with a mixer on low speed until foamy. Add salt, cream of tartar, and vanilla. Increase speed to medium; beat until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. With mixer running, add remaining 3/4 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well after each. Increase speed to high; beat until stiff, glossy peaks form (egg-white mixture should not be dry), about 2 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Sift flour mixture over egg-white mixture in 6 additions, folding gently after each.
- Pour batter into a pastry bag. Cut off tip, and pipe batter into 1-cup mini angel food cake pans, filling each 3/4 full. Gently run the tip of a knife or skewer through batter to remove air bubbles that may have formed when piping. Bake until cakes are golden brown and spring back when touched, 25 to 30 minutes. Place cake pans upside down on a wire rack, and let cakes cool for 1 hour. Carefully run a paring knife around sides of cakes to loosen, then flip over to remove from tins. Cakes will keep, covered, for 1 day.
- Meanwhile, make glaze: Whisk together confectioners' sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth. If not using immediately, cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly on the surface, and let stand at room temperature; whisk until glaze is smooth before using.
- To assemble: Spoon some glaze over each cake. Top with spun sugar, and serve immediately.

by Tim Barela
Torch Magazine
12/1/2011 -
SAN ANTONIO, Texas
-- He lost his mom and dad to a drunk driver at age 4. Now at age 7, Nathaniel Britt has lost one of his legal guardians ... his grandfather, Ronald Lee.
Lee, a 57-year-old retired master sergeant, died Sept. 24, six weeks after suffering a stroke. Nathaniel appeared on the cover of the March/April 2011 issue of Torch, in a feature that detailed the deaths of his parents, Tech. Sgts. Maurice and Audra Britt, who were both stationed at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas. They had been killed by a drunk driver who smashed his truck into their motorcycle April 5, 2009. The drunk driver, who had been driving 65 mph the wrong way into on-coming traffic in Austin, Texas, was arrested and ultimately sent to prison to serve a 20-year sentence for intoxication manslaughter and another five years for fleeing the scene.
"This has been a very traumatic experience for all of us because no one saw this coming, just like when my sister and brother-in-law died," said Staff Sgt. Aron Lee, Ronald's son and Nathaniel's uncle who got a humanitarian assignment to Lackland to help his parents raise Nathaniel after he was orphaned. "It was a bad case of déjà vu."
Aron counts his dad as another victim of the drunk driver.
"The death of my sister definitely played a role in my father's demise -- I'd bet money on it," Aron said. "It's no secret that Dad never got over Audra's death. He always carried a piece of it with him. It weighed heavy on his heart and mind."
Ronald would have celebrated his 58th birthday Nov. 2, as well as 40 years of marriage to his wife, Carol, Dec. 31.
Aron said his nephew took his grandpa's death pretty hard.
"Nathaniel was extremely sad when we broke the news to him. He immediately started praying. ... He tearfully asked God not to let any more of his family go," said Aron, who, in a case of bad timing, also will soon have to leave his nephew in San Antonio as he reports to his new assignment at Ramstein Air Base, Germany, Dec. 6.
"Nathaniel is holding up OK," the staff sergeant added. "He's a very strong young man. But we watch him closely; because with something this traumatic, you never know what the short- and long-term effects will be for someone so young."

It was OK. The overall story is interesting and the characters are quite conniving. It looked beautiful (hello, King Pimp Daddy clothes!), but there was that element of a little too "serious" with longing glance and pained expressions.
Oh, and they're all whores.
Ooh! Gosford Park. Love that one. That's one that Emily hasn't seen, but I'm pretty sure I still own, and she needs to. We'll have to put that on the list.

Meh, it was OK. Pineapple Express last week was better. There were some funny bits, but it really could have stood some tightening up. Robert Downey Jr. was awesome (as always). Surprisingly, so was Matthew McConaughey. Everyone else was decent, but I felt the weak link was Ben Stiller.

Welcome the mind-melter
PUBLISHED: 30 Sep 2011 00:07:00 | UPDATED: 10 Feb 2012 16:53:56PUBLISHED: 30 Sep 2011 PRINT EDITION: 30 Sep 2011One MILLION features ... The Pen E-P3 is a device so diabolical it would do Dr Evil proud.
john davidson
Has Olympus built the ultimate mind-melting machine into its new Pen E-P3 camera? A Dr Evil device so ingenious that, in the wrong hands, it could addle the brains of entire populations just by emailing out the special photo it creates?
Maybe it has, maybe it hasn't. We can't say for sure because we're too scared to test the feature here in the Digital Life Labs for fear it will make our heads explode or, at the least, permanently cross our eyes.
Also, we don't have the equipment necessary to test it.
But not to worry. The mind-melter, which Olympus innocuously refers to as the camera's "3D" feature (death, dismay and discombobulation, perhaps?) is just one of a million features in this excellent new device, and whether it's lethal or not, the E-P3 is still a great little camera – the best so far in a line we are huge fans of. So what if it can't kill people via the internet?
Like the E-P1 and the E-P2 that preceded it, the E-P3 is a compact interchangeable lens camera with a fairly large image sensor that leaves small-sensor compact cameras for dead (just another way this thing kills).
I've prattled on many times previously about how and why large-sensor cameras are better than small-sensor cameras, so I won't go into it again except to remind you that cameras with large-image sensors can take photos with much more appealing depth of field, much prettier bokeh, and much less image noise than equivalent small-sensor cameras.
The image sensor on the E-P3, known as a Micro Four Thirds sensor, is not as large as we would consider to be ideal (36mm x 24mm), nor even as large as the APS-C-sized sensor found in a Sony NEX camera, but at 17mm x 13mm it's large enough to give you a taste of the nice features of larger-sensor cameras without the bulk normally associated with large-sensor digital single lens reflex (SLR) cameras.
The E-P3 is much smaller than a dSLR – it weighs just 380 grams, plus another 100g or 200g depending on the lens you attach – but has the vast array of shooting modes, features and external controls you might expect from a much larger camera.
The E-P3 really is very nice to shoot with. Unlike previous models, it comes with a dual-core image processor (it's the first camera of any class we've reviewed with a dual-core processor, we believe), making it much snappier than ever.
Its auto focus is very fast, the image processing is fast, and saving to memory card is fast. Everything is just fast on this camera.
It's also got a great screen on the back, one of those organic LED screens from Samsung that's brighter and sharper than ever (even if a little too punchy to always give accurate colour previews).
The screen happens to be touch-sensitive, meaning you can use it to control many of the features, but the usual buttons and dials on the E-P3 are so easy to use, so well laid out and so brilliantly customisable, you'll hardly bother with it.
It does have one feature that quickly focuses on and then photographs any part of the preview image you touch, which will come in handy, especially if you're using a tripod. That feature, too, is just lightning fast, especially in bright daylight.
Just like the PC industry is now all dual-core (or quad or octo-core), you're bound to see a lot more dual-core cameras appearing on the market in coming months. It's a terrific improvement.
While on the subject of the buttons and dials, I should point out that, although they're more customisable than any other camera in its class, not one of the buttons or dials on the E-P3 can be turned into an ISO button.
It's a very odd thing for Olympus to have overlooked and something we hope it will fix in an update. For the moment, you'll have to make do with the settings menu on the camera, which thankfully is now simplified, and very good for adjusting the basic settings.
And while on the subject of odd oversights, a minor quibble we had with the E-P3: the image sensor is one of the few things that hasn't been upgraded. It appears to have more or less the same 12 megapixel sensor as older models, meaning it's not as high-resolution as image sensors such as the 24 megapixel sensor on the soon-to-be-released Sony NEX-7, with which the E-P3 will have to compete.
Still, megapixels aren't everything. Indeed, beyond a certain point, more megapixels are fairly meaningless and most of the time the 12 megapixels on the E-P3 will be more than enough.
And before I make an oversight of my own, I should tell you about the camera's Dr Evil feature. As I mentioned, the E-P3 now comes with the ability to shoot in 3D. That's odd, because it only has one lens and you need two lenses to shoot in 3D, right? To overcome this, Olympus has done a neat trick of allowing you to take one photo, representing the left eye, then move the camera to the right to take a second photo for the right eye.
Mostly, the camera seems to do a good job to ensure you don't move it too far between shots, and that you move it the right direction. But we managed to take a number of 3D images where the interocular distance – the distance between the "two" lenses – appeared to be much greater than would ever be comfortable for humans to view.
Will those photos dislocate someone's eyeball? We don't know. We're too scared to look at them.

Super Bowl Host Curse: Is There Good News To Losing Out on Big Game Hosting Duties?
Categories: Sports
Dallas plays host to next year's Super Bowl in their shiny, new $1.3 billion dollar stadium. Cowboy fans are already crowing about the idea of being the first team to win the big game on their home turf.
Yes they had a decent season last year, yes they're returning all but two of their starters, and yes Tony Romo hasn't porked Jessica Simpson in years, but NFL history tells them not to hold their breath.
Only five teams have made it even into the playoffs in seasons their city was hosting the Bowl. Four of those five were Miami squads (not surprising when you consider Miami has hosted 10 out of 44 Super Bowls).
The '70, '94 and '98 Fins made it to the divisional rounds, while the the '78 team crapped out in the wild card round. The '00 Bucs were the only other host team to make it to the play offs, and they too got picked off in the first round.
So conspiracy or curse, the fact that Miami won't be hosting the Super Bowl every five years or so is good cosmic news for our hopes of one day actually appearing in the game again. We're also crossing our fingers hoping that the curse effects the Jets in the worst way in the '13 season.
Yeah, it's a bummer that Roger Goodell has indicated

#11V2_Time Off_LED On.zip
What could have been exactly what most of us want has turned out to be totally useless!!! The firmware outputs the video file in MOV format - GOOD The firmware removes the timestamp - GOOD The firmware blinks the LED while recording - GOOD The firmware writes 4GB files (or maybe 70 min. files) - GOOD BUT - if you let the camera continue (with a 32GB card, for example), it will DELETE the file it has just written and start overwriting it. The firmware will never start another file, so for my 32GB card 28GB will remain unused no matter how long the camera runs. This is the MOST INSANE FUNCTIONALITY I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!!! So I guess I'll have to keep on waiting until the developer gives us a firmware that most people want . What a disappointment |

Given a 32GB card, this is what the firmware does: It records a 4GB, or 70 min. file (not quite sure which), then it starts overwriting the SAME FILE!! So, after many hours my 32GB will only have 1 tiny 4GB file. The remaining 28GB of empty space is still empty!!!! The firmware will never, ever start a new file. It just keeps on overwriting the same 70 min. file. So, if I record 71 minutes (assuming the clips are 70 mins. long), I will have ONE MINUTE of video!!! - on a 32GB card!!!!!!!!! This is certainly not common functionality for car dvr - at least I hope it isn't! |

Yes, that's clearer! Could be a problem in a car if an incident begins at say 69min, the camera would continue and erase it unless stopped before the 70min cutoff.
Not a problem for me, I never record flights over 20min. I assume a 32gb card would then be useful, each flight would be saved separately. |

Power switch happens at Midwest

By DIANE GASPER-O'BRIEN
Earnie Lehman knew he would have to look far and wide to find someone to take Bob Helm's place, and he was right.
Midwest Energy Inc. in Hays brought in its new manager of corporate communications from overseas.
Mike Morley, who began work at Midwest Energy in June, is a native Kansan who spent the past three years in Singapore, working as a senior public affairs manager for 12 southeast Asian countries for the U.S. Navy. And he worked in Spain for three years prior to that.
Morley's first day alone on the job in Hays was Tuesday after spending the last four weeks learning the ropes from Helm, who is retiring after nearly 27 years in the position. Helm's last day on the job was Monday.
"Bob has been an incredibly valuable asset to Midwest Energy and the community for the last 27 years," said Lehman, president and general manager of Midwest Energy. "And we certainly will miss him.
"I must say, though, we were very pleased -- and surprised -- with Mike's caliber and quality."
Helm brought with him a wealth of experience in December 1985 when tough economic times forced the company for which he worked, RDF Associates, to downsize.
RDF, a small advertising agency in Hays, had two employees, and Helm was No. 2.
So eliminating a position meant Helm was looking for work.
"I was within two weeks of being out of a job (back in late 1985)," said Helm, who also had radio experience in both broadcasting and sales.
He heard about the opening at Midwest Energy and the rest, as they say, is history.
From his start in a basement office on 11th Street to the new, sprawling two-story building at 1330 Canterbury, Helm has seen many changes during the four decades working at Midwest Energy, including technology upgrades in every line of his work.
"Our offices weren't all in the same building, and we had to go outside to go make a photocopy or to go to a meeting," said Helm, who was responsible for all aspects of media relations for Midwest Energy, ranging from advertisements and commercials to annual reports, from writing speeches and newsletters to photography.
"A lot of things have changed," he added, "been a lot of evolution over the years."
Through it all, Helm was able to enjoy job security.
"That's one thing about being a utility," he said. "This industry is relatively insulated from the economy. Sure, you can lose customers, but overall, folks need energy. And because it's an electric cooperative, all the members are also owners."
Morley a good fit
Morley was set to retire from the military following a 23-year stint with the Navy when he and his wife, Rena, started looking for opportunities "around the I-35 corridor, from Dallas to Minneapolis (Minn.)"
"But, truly," Morley said, "we wanted to be in Kansas."
The Midwest Energy job popped up on a job board as a Wichita job because it had been advertised in the Wichita Eagle.
Morley grew up in Topeka, and the job in Hays intrigued him.
He said he had been to Hays only once before, when he flew from Spain in 2008 for a meeting with professors when he was working on a master's degree online from Fort Hays State University.
Morley didn't get to see much of Hays on that trip but liked what he saw when he flew here to interview this past spring.
The feeling was mutual. Midwest Energy also liked what they saw in Morley, who has extensive experience in writing, crisis communications, social media and community relations, ranging from a Navy television reporter and anchor in Japan to managing media and community relations programs in Europe and West Africa.
"Besides being well-qualified, (Morley) is engaging and open and reaches out to people," Lehman said. "He is very genuine -- which is one of Bob's great qualities."
Morley said he has been made to feel welcome in Hays and he hopes for the same for his family, which arrived Monday.
"Bob has taken me around to meet people, and he knows hundreds and hundreds of people," Morley said. "Everyone seems so welcoming, so accommodating. One thing I've learned is that Bob is universally liked. I saw how involved he was (in the community). It's quite impressive."
Morley said the time spent with Helm has been invaluable.
"He's crafted a very successful communications program here and has a tremendous credibility program in place," Morley said. "That can be both a blessing and a curse. It's a big legacy to follow, one that's going to be hard to live up to. But I'm looking forward to getting into a good routine with the requirements for the position."
Impressed with Hays
Morley and his wife -- a veterinarian technician -- have three children, ages 9 to 14, and when he was in town to interview at Midwest Energy, he drove by Hays High School and decided to go in and check it out.
"I was impressed with the principal (Mike Hester) and impressed with the way the kids treat the school building," said Morley, whose oldest son, Ben, will be a freshman in high school this fall. "And they have a very good offering of academic classes."
Morley had a job offer in Wichita as well.
"Between Hays and Wichita," Morley said, "the Hays schools sold me."
Helm had three children graduate from Hays High. Now grown with families of their own, the Helm siblings can look forward to spending more time with their parents. Helm's wife, Marilyn, retired in January from her position as pharmacy technician at Dillon Stores.
"We have grandkids in Denver and grandkids in Olathe, so we're right in the middle (in Hays)," he said. "We'll be spending a lot of time traveling to and from their places."
But the Helms still plan to call Hays home.
"We're going to keep in touch with Bob," Lehman said. "It's nice knowing that he will be sticking around and still will be serving the community."

Here is another of Nokia's in depth videos looking at the Nokia Lumia 800 and some of its features. In this YouTube clips you can see Nokia Drive in action. It looks identical to the version found in Nokia N9 and N950, which is not a bad thing. Sure, it's not perfect and it seems that Nokia Drive is missing direct access to favourites like the MeeGo version. At least the Windows Phone version will get improvements.

Federal Reserve chair Ben Bernanke announced a major change of course for the third round of quantitative easing. In order to boost the recovery, the Fed is buying $85 billion in bonds per month, including $40 billion in mortgage-backed securities, through December. And beyond: The Fed is now committed to that buys strategy beyond December if the economy has not seen significant gains by then.
Further, the Fed will maintain an interest-rate range of 0 to 0.25 percent through mid-2015, and the Federal Open Market Committee intends to make it stick. It will continue along an "accommodative" track for six months after the economy has recovered.
Slate's Matthew Yglesias greeted the news this way: "Build that apartment building right now."
But do builders think that's right? Please answer our poll—is the Fed moving the economy in the right direction?

The farmers market in the Orscheln parking lot was buzzing with activity shortly after 8 Saturday morning.
Four tables behind vehicles displayed a variety of homemade jelly, salsa, breads and vegetables that were available for purchase.
Each of those working a table mentioned how the hot weather took a toll.
For one of those, the weather was not the only challenge.
Larry Nichols, Alton, said he got a late start on planting this year because his wife, Pat, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer Feb. 19.
Nichols said for the next six weeks, he and his wife traveled to the University of Kansas Medical Center, Salina and back to Hays for treatment. He said his wife is doing better and added the delay in planting might have been a blessing.
Nichols said he normally seeds 1,000 to 1,200 plants in late February or March.
He said he was questioned on how late he planted, which was spread throughout mid-May to mid-June.
"I said, 'It has a better chance if it's in the ground than it does in the bag," he said.
The cooler weather might have made the difference.
"We picked our first beans last week, and we have a heck of a bean crop coming on -- and they are just loaded," Nichols said. "Other people's beans were trying to produce in that hot weather, and they got nothing. So this was kind of a blessing in disguise."
Nichols said he has lived through some hot summers in Kansas.
"I am a typical Kansas farmer. We have had rough years before," he said. "We will have rough years again, but in the mean time we are always optimistic there's next year," Nichols said.
For Karen and Pete Klaus, Victoria, and Cindy Dinkel, Hays, the heat and water restrictions in Victoria took a toll.
The trio sells an assortment of jelly, salsa and breads, but said the weather and only being allowed to water twice each week affected their garden, especially tomatoes. Pete said the cucumbers and the orchards were fairing well.
For Iva Maiers, Natoma, the cool September weather marked a turning point.
"Well, finally, after the severe conditions, we have some things to bring," Maier said. "Mostly what we have now is peppers."
Juliet Lallement, Ellis, said she stops after working out to see what she can find. She also said she is making an effort to eat healthy.
"I like the vegetables; they are larger than what you get at the store, and they are fresh," Lallement said.
Donna McKenzie, Hays, said she and her husband, Bryan, have been going to farmers markets for approximately four to five years.
Donna said she comes to the market to support local growers and to look for certain goods.
"It's nice to come out and see what everyone brought into town and visit with people," she said.
The farmers market season will wind down in mid-October, but Nichols said they were selling goods until almost Halloween last year.
The markets are in the Orscheln parking lot and in the Ashley Furniture parking lot from 8 to 11 a.m. each Saturday and from 5 to 8 p.m. Wednesday.

Darius Tôp Only
Junior Member
Salut, En Draft ma team n'en peut plus d'essayée de les mettre plus OP avec dans les 3 place au début on ban : darius,jax,diana vous allez me dire bas il a bannie les pires.. bas non, y a Morgana,Shen,blizcrank,kassadin deux de mes counter pick pas bannie vue que je joue cassopeia :/ avez-vous des idées de counter-pick non-OP ?:/
Senior Member
If I understood correctly, you want counter picks for Darius? I'll quote myself from another thread:
"Le counter pick de darius ?" I thought that some meme addicted guy made this thread until I saw that this was french
Vlad and kayle just own darius so hard lop still prefer Vladimir cuz of his amazing lategame and teamfight capabillity
Kayle, Vladimir et Kennen parce qu'ils ont range. Desole, mon francais est tres mauvais :P
Specific Hard counter-picks = Myth. Soft counter-picks are real but don't focus on that, sure we have for example Yorick who can shut down Jax early game but that makes him a soft counter-pick since it's not indefinite. Don't focus on trying to find hard counter-picks because people will tell you something like "Oh, just pick Riven, she pwns Darius in all ways" but it's not true, they tell you this because they may be experienced with Riven and that's the real reason they won. Tl;dr: Good Experience + Random Champion = Hard Counter-pick to any champion.
Warwick-disable ult and OMG healing/sustain= no passive effect
I just had a game, other team picked darius i chose jax, got shut down early by a mistake and I couldn't do anything, ended up 0-4-0 because they had ali jungle so they just towerdived me. I kept farming and just carried my team to victory late game, going from 0-4-0 to 16-5-12 and I had a quadra, ( SHOULD HAVE BEEN PENTA but the bad guy nunu with 100 wins ftw came did ONE AA and stole penta.......... ) I played bad early game but yet ruled late while darius fell off pretty hard late game.

Is How Well You Drive An Indicator Of How Good You Are In Bed?
Jaopnik – Gentlemen, the way you drive is apparently a giveaway to women on how you'll, er, behave between the sheets. Thus spake Hoda Kotb, co-host of the Today show's 73rd hour, who will never look at cab drivers the same way again. Are your driving moves all jerky; are you constantly thrusting in and out of traffic? Are you the clumsy type — all thumbs and apologies? Or are you a smooth operator behind the wheel, deftly caressing the road until it yields to your soft but firm touch, then skilfully building to a screaming climax? Yeah, Hoda. Thanks for adding another layer of performance anxiety to our lives.
So that Neanderthal Hoda thinks driving style determines how good you are in bed huh? I think she might be on to something. But it really all depends on the state I'm in when I'm driving. Here's the ironic conclusion I drew about sex and driving:
Sober sex is like drunk driving, and drunk sex is like sober driving. Try to keep up with this one.
Think about it. Drunk sex and sober driving happen all the time. You're used to both of them. In both scenarios you're calm and relaxed. You're not really worried about anything going wrong. You get in to the car or your bed, you go for a 20 minute ride, get from Point A to Point B, and that's that. No accidents. No disasters. You're laid back, one hand on the wheel, radio blasting, cool as a cucumber. You're rolling stop signs, right on red's. You're as comfortable as can be. Just like you are when you're having drunk sex. She's tipsy, you're tipsy, you're pushing the envelope. A finger here, a tongue there. Whatever. Nobody can really feel anything lets just have a good time and go for a joy ride, right?
Sober sex, though, is like drunk driving. You rarely ever do it. You're paranoid and a little bit nervous. You know you gotta bring your best performance, right? Head on a swivel when you're drunk driving. 10 and 2. Seat belt fastened. No radio. Full stops. Well that's all like sober sex for the first time with a chick. You're nervous, rigid, awkward and you're basically bracing for a car wreck. And what inevitably ends up happening during both sober sex and drunk driving? You go really fast, realize you're getting ahead of yourself, and then you hit the brakes. You look down at the speedometer, realize you're going wayyy above the speed limit, and pump the brakes. Well when I'm having sober sex I get all into the moment – I'm like "Hell yea I can actually feel my dick! I'm gonna fuck this chick so hard like I see in the pornos!" Start going real fast and hard and about 12 pumps in I realize the Grand Finale is already on its way. So you hit the brakes and stop. Some times you pull out all together. I like to pretend I'm teasing and trying to be sexy, you know like playing hard to get. When in reality its more like "If my penis was inside you for one millisecond longer I'm 100% sure I would have came." And I'm pretty sure any girl I've ever done this with has known what's going on. Just like the police officer when he sees your brake lights every two seconds. You're not fooling anyone.
So in conclusion. Don't drink and drive kids. And if you're having sober sex its not like you see in the pornos. Those guys can last like hundreds of thrusts. You can't.

Listening to the car radio, Triple M played Stg. Pepper/A Day in the Life and it brought back memories of the first time I heard it. While it was not officially released until June 1, 1967, I heard the album (or at least part of it) a bit earlier than that. I was living in a UW dorm (LaFollette House, Adams Hall) and a student run low powered radio station, WLHA, was transmitted through the power lines. The southeast area dorms had a similar station.
Well, one of the student DJs had just come back from England and somehow got a copy of the album and played it. My fellow dormmates and I were blow away by A Day in the Life.
Rehearing certain other songs also evokes strong memories of the first time I heard them.
Anyone one else with a story? As an old fart, I could tell more. Maybe later.

Net savings after system install costs
1. Hot Water Usage Per Day.
Input the value that you got from the water usage calculator or estimate it yourself.
2. Kerosene or LPG or Natural Gas.
The reason there are three calculators is because LPG gives off less heat than Kerosene per litre and Natural gas is charged per kWh.
3. Boiler efficiency.
If you don't know just click on Boiler efficiency options and use the dropdown arrow as a guideline.
If you have an old Gas Oil boiler the efficiency ranges from 55-70% depending on its age and service history
If you have an Kerosene boiler the efficiency ranges from 60-70% depending on its age and service history.
If you have an gas fired LPG or Natural Gas boiler the efficiency ranges from 65-75% depending on its age and service history.
If you are not sure and bought into the house then choose the lowest value.
As an example, I bought into a house with a Waterford Stanley Super 80 cooker in the kitchen which has an efficiency rating of 54.9%
a litre of heating oil (kerosene 28 sec) burnt at 100% efficiency will release approximately 10.18KW of heat
a litre of heating (LPG) burnt at 100% efficiency will release approximately 7.15KW of heat
a litre of heating Gas OIL burnt at 100% efficiency will release approximately 10.55KW of heat
The calculations are based on raising your hot water temperature from your input starting temperature to 60˚C.
The calculator is not taking into account latent heat in your hot water tank, in other words
it is raising the temperature from your input starting temperature to 60˚C
If you are using Gas Oil use the kerosene button above as the heat values are within 0.4KW
4. Starting Temperature.
This will vary depending on your water source, water mains, well, ground temperature, header tank, etc.
So just stick a thermometer under the kitchen cold tap after running it for a few minutes or if you have clear access to your
cold water storage tank(header tank) measure the temperature there.
It will vary from winter to summer.
As an example, I am on a well and have a constant 9˚C, if you are on water mains just add a few degrees.
5. How many days per year do you use the burner v.s. immersion ?
The immersion is used usually in the summer say 6 months and the boiler over the winter say 6 months.
The times will vary depending on whether you live in Donegal or Wexford.
Note if you are using Natural Gas you probably don't use the immersion to heat your water
so just put zero in the immersion days and 365 in the boiler days. You can change this assumption if you wish.
6. Cost per litre or kWh.
Check your last bill and input the cost per litre or kWh.
In Feb. 2011 it was 82 cent (inc.Vat) per litre for kerosene so input 0.82.
Cost of Natural Gas is measured in kWh and was 5.5 cent (inc.Vat) per kWh so input 0.055
Don't forget to add vat. at 13.5% to your unit charge if you are checking your bill.
8. Quote for solar system less grant
When inputting your solar system installation quote subtract the grant amount if applicable.
If you are borrowing the money for the installation add the cost of the loan to your quote amount.
Try this online loan calculator
to work out your cost of credit.
7. Fuel inflation estimate pa.
This is very difficult to predict especially in these turbulent times.
Since 1947 to 2009 the price of a barrel of oil has risen on average by 8.28% pa.
So as a starting point put in 10% inflation. You can change this value.
But over the last 10 years it has risen at 38% pa.
The cost of 1000 litres of Kerosene was 430 euro in March 2009 and is 820 euro Feb. 2011 almost a 200% increase in two years.
So to work out your ROI the biggest variable will be fuel cost.
9. Solar efficiency or return.
This can vary for many reasons, panel orientation, shading, weather, etc. If you have to place panels facing east or west
or two panels one east and one west this will affect the efficiency. By efficiency in this case is the percentage of your
water that will be heated by the solar installation.
I have suggested between 50% to 70% but you can change this if you wish.

The Scope of Woolf's Feminism in A Room of One's Own
In this unique oral history book, author and historic document specialist Stuart Lutz records the stories told to him personally by people who witnessed many of history's most famous events. Among many others, Lutz interviewed:
-the final three Civil War widows (one Union and two Confederate)
-the final pitcher to surrender a home run to Babe Ruth
-the last suffragette
-the last living person to fly with Amelia Earhart
-the final American World War I soldier
-the last surviving employees of Thomas Edison, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Harry Houdini.
The wide-ranging stories involve humor (the 1920 Olympic medalist who stole the original Olympic flag), tragedy (the last survivor of the 1915 Lusitania sinking), heroism (the final Medal of Honor recipient for actions on Pearl Harbor Day), and eyewitnesses to great events (one of the last scientists at the first nuclear chain reaction, and the final Iwo Jima flag raiser).
In more than three-dozen chapters, Lutz blends background information in a lively narrative with the words of the interviewees, so that readers not familiar with the historical episodes described can understand what occurred and the long-term significance of the events.
A book that truly makes the past come alive, The Last Leaf will fascinate not only history buffs but anyone who likes a good story.

The Indigenous Literacy Foundation is proud to have the support of 17 ambassadors. Our team of dedicated volunteer ambassadors participate in events and media interviews throughout the year and on Indigenous Literacy Day to raise support and awareness for ILF. Where the opportunity arises, our ambassadors also travel to remote Indigenous communities to give workshops and participate in activities organised by ILF.
Debra Dank: Cultural Ambassador
Debra Dank is a Gudanji woman, from the Barkly Tablelands, NT. She has been an integral part of ILF, first working with The Indigenous Literacy Project when it was in partnership with The Fred Hollows Foundation and then as Program Manager from 2011-2012. Debra has been involved in education for more than 20 years and is now the Indigenous Education Teacher at Kormilda College, NT. Debra's focus has always been on literacy and Indigenous education; working in school based roles providing academic support to Indigenous students.
Geraldine Brooks: Ambassador
"When I was growing up, books were everything: the passport to a much wider world than the simple and limited suburban landscape of my childhood. It is wonderful that the Australian Book Industry has embraced the Indigenous Literacy Foundation so warmly. As more books are placed in avid young hands, who knows what journeys will begin."
Geraldine Brooks is author of the Pulitzer Prize winning and internationally bestselling novel March. Her first novel, Year of Wonders published in 2001, is also an international bestseller. Geraldine's latest book Caleb's Crossing was published in 2011.
"Most of us take reading (and writing) so much for granted that it's almost impossible to imagine life without that form of communication. Literacy opens so many doors that otherwise stay closed: doors into education and jobs, but also into the minds and imaginations and hearts of other humans all over the planet. Verbal literacy isn't the only door, by any means - but having access to it is a choice that no one should miss out on." Kate Grenville was born in Sydney. Her novels includ Lilian's Story, The Idea of Perfection, The Secret River, The Lieutenant and most recently Sarah Thornhill. Several of these books attempt to explore some of the history that Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians share.
"Imagine a world in which everybody has clean air, fresh water, healthy food, someone to love and someone who loves them, a roof over their head, and, most important of all, a good book to read and the ability to read it ... sure, you might say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one ..."
Andy Griffiths is one of Australia's funniest and most successful writers. His books have sold over 5 million copies worldwide, have featured on the New York Times bestseller lists, and have won over 50 Australian children?s choice awards. Andy's books include the Just! series, the Bum trilogy and he is the editor of a collection of writing by children from remote Indigenous communities called, The Naked Boy and the Crocodile.
"Literacy is essential to Aboriginal people's self-determination. If we cannot read we cannot make the decisions that inevitably impact on our lives. Self-determination requires each of us to have the literacy to have the power to make our own decisions and control our own futures. Only when we are self-determined as individuals will we be self-determined as a nation of peoples." Dr Anita Heiss is a member of the Wiradjuri nation, and is an author, poet, satirist and social commentator. Anita's published works include Manhattan Dreaming, the historical novel Who Am I? The Diary of Mary Talence, Sydney 1937, kids novel Yirra and Her Deadly Dog, Demon, poetry collection I'm not racist, but and non-fiction text Dhuuluu-Yala (To Talk Straight). In 2011 Paris Dreaming won the Deadly Award for Most Outstanding Achievement in Literature, repeating Dr. Heiss's previous successes in 2007 and 2008. Dr Heiss is an Adjunct Professor with Jumbunna Indigenous House of Learning, UTS.
"Growing up I was pretty lucky to be part of a family that encouraged reading. Two of the most important skills associated with being a singer/songwriter/entertainer are the ability to read and a command of the English language. Without these skills I could not write my songs. It is my belief that through reading children not only learn to read and write, they also learn to use their imagination. They can imagine their future and dream about the possibilities. Maybe I can be a doctor or a nurse or a singer or an author? Please give your support to the Indigenous Literacy Foundation so that the first children of this nation can dare to dream and achieve. Dreams do come true."
Adam James is a young Indigenous singer-songwriter who won Best New Talent in 2008 at the Deadly Awards and a solid nomination for the 2008 Australian Male Independent Country Music Rising Star Award.
"There was a time, not so long ago, when people who could not read or write learned all they needed to know of the world by show and tell; by looking hard, asking questions of their elders, and then listening hard to the answers. But that time is past. Today we learn how the world works, and how we work in it, through reading as well as through watching and listening. A lot of the information we need is in books, or in newspapers or magazines, or on the Internet. Even to send an SMS on a mobile phone we need to be able to read. Reading brings the world to us. But reading can also open up a new world of people and events we have never imagined but which we can enter and become part of. This kind of reading takes us out of ourselves into other times and places, into other skins. Reading is a form of magic. It gives us access to a world that has no limits and where everyone is welcome and can be at home". David Malouf is an acclaimed poet and novelist. David's books include Johnno, Remembering Babylon, which won the first International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award and was shortlisted for the Booker Prize, and Every Move You Make which won both The Age Book of the Year Award for Fiction and the Queensland Premier's Literary Short Story Collection Award.
"When I was young my family never had any money, so my Mum couldn't afford to buy us books. She did, however, haunt secondhand shops and whenever she came across anything she thought was interesting she would buy it and bring it home. This meant the books in our house were mainly volumes of fairy stories or books about the natural world. I learnt a lot about insects, snakes and dinosaurs. I love reading, it is a wonderful way to learn new things and to travel to other worlds where exciting things happens. It also helps you to think about the stories you would like to tell yourself." Sally Morgan belongs to the Palkyu people, from the Pilbara in the north west of Western Australia. She is a writer and an artist, but is best known for her book My Place, which documents her family's journey back to their country and their people. Sally is employed in the School of Indigenous Studies at the University of Western Australia.
Katie Noonan: Ambassador
"I am very honoured and excited to be involved with such a wonderful organisation. I am also feeling so lucky to have the privilege of visiting remote communities and reading books and playing music with the children - myself and my band 'the Captains' are really looking forward to it! I am also particularly excited about learning more about Indigenous language and having the children teach me that in return! This really is a wonderful organisation and I am honoured to be a small part of it." Katie Noonan's technical mastery and pure voice make her one of Australia's most versatile and beloved vocalists. A mother, singer, producer, songwriter, pianist and business woman, this multi award winning and five time platinum selling songstress first received widespread praise as the angel-voiced songstress of indie-pop band george and she has since taken audiences on sublime excursions through jazz, pop and classical music.
"As humans we understand ourselves, and our potential, through story; the stories we live (personal experience) and the stories we hear, read, and see around us during our lives. The only way Indigenous people can experience the most exciting part of reading, the part that most Australians take for granted, the joy of finding your culture, your experiences and your thoughts in the literature you read, is if the books they read have Indigenous heroes and are steeped in modern day Indigenous culture." Leonie Norrington was born in Darwin, the third of nine children, and grew up at Barunga Aboriginal community, south of Katherine. Leonie's published books include Woman's Talk, Under the Mango Tree, The Barrumbi Kids, Croc Bait and You and Me: Our Place.
May O'Brien, BEM: Ambassador
May O'Brien was born in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia, and at the age of five, was taken to Mount Margaret Mission where she spent the next twelve years. She taught in Western Australian rural and metropolitan primary schools for twenty-five years. May served in a number of other positions before being appointed Superintendent of Aboriginal Education, a position she held until her early retirement in 1988.
Her total service with the Western Australian Ministry of Education was thirty-four years. May is currently National Indigenous English Literacy and Numeracy Strategy Ambassador for the Department of Education, Science and Training, and Patron of The Australian Principals Associations Professional Development Council's Dare to Lead: Taking it On Project.
Michael O'Loughlin belongs to the Narrunga people and he says: I'm mainly Aboriginal, but with a strong element of Hebrew and just a dash of Irish.
When Michael O'Loughlin was drafted by the Sydney Swans at just 17 years of age, he was the no. 40 selection and the last player picked. Back then he could not have imagined the extraordinary future that awaited him: the numerous awards and accolades, the respect and admiration of fellow players, a huge number of personal supporters, and a record-breaking 303 games in the red and white. By 2009, Michael had broken the Swans' games record. He had kicked more goals for the club than anyone except the legendary Bob Pratt. He played more finals for the Swans than any other, and became one of just three Indigenous players in the history of the sport to reach 300 games. Michael is now the a high performance AFL coach with The Australian Institute of Sport and also runs the GO Foundation with good friend and former teammate Adam Goodes.
Josh Pyke: Ambassador
"Having the ability to choose is a powerful thing, and to me, the work ILF do in raising literacy levels in Indigenous communities, is about introducing choice to people. Kids and adults who can read, can choose to pursue further education, pursue better job opportunities, stay more up to date with the world around them, or simply enjoy the brilliant escape that reading can offer at the end of a stressful day. Words, books and the language of music have been incredibly important to me, and I love that ILP might bring those gifts and those choices to others." Josh Pyke is an ARIA award-winning singer and songwriter. In 2009 Josh launched his 'Buskin for Change' to mobilise support for The Indigenous Literacy Foundation. He won his fourth ARIA for 'Best Contemporary Album for his second full length album Chimneys Afire in 2011.
"Storytelling has always been an integral part of my life. I grew up in a family where music and books where considered among the greatest treasures, and have since dedicated my time to writing songs. I understand the need for books and reading not just in developing musical ideas but for understanding my world and ultimately being able to communicate with my audience. The Indigenous Literacy Foundation is making a difference by providing access to books and programs for reading. It reaches some of the most disadvantaged and remote areas, where literacy - and the life spark that learning how to read generates - is most needed." Felix Reibl is a founding member of the internationally renowned band 'The Cat Empire'. Felix has written songs for the band, composed music outside the band, and had a remarkable journey traveling with music. Felix released his first solo album, Into the Rain, in 2011.
"When I was a kid, I learnt of a man who couldn't read or write. He was sent to jail for a crime he didn't commit, yet the police forced him to sign a statement that incriminated him. He did several years in jail until the real culprit was found. How could he have been convicted, when he couldn't even write, let alone read his own apparent confession? When I see Indigenous writers in front of an audience and the punters are hanging off their every word, I think of that man and similar correlations of today's society and how literacy can save an individual's life. That's why I write, and that's why it's important for my children to be able to grasp the written word and to understand what reading and comprehension can do for them - no one should ever have to pay for the crime of being illiterate." Samuel Wagan-Watson is an award-winning poet and professional raconteur. Samuel began his writing career in Grade 7, when a teacher entered one of short stories in a Queensland-schools competition. The judges remarked that it was the worst writing they'd ever encountered! Samuel's 4th collection of poetry, Smoke Encrypted Whispers won the 2005 NSW Premier's Award for the Book of the Year and the national Kenneth Slessor poetry prize. He has performed his poetry throughout the world and was recently commissioned by the Japanese Aeronautical Exploration Agency to write haiku for the pleasure of the astronauts on the International Space Platform. He was also the poet-in-residence on the ABC's Sunday Arts show before his current position as the principle writer for Brisbane's 98.9FM
Tara June Winch: Ambassador
"The Indigenous Literacy Foundation has helped give voice to a world, given a language an opportunity to reach out to other readers. It has helped make a path to the merging of two worlds, two languages, two people. ILF is not only an act of charity; it is an act of reconciliation. It is a healing path, which you all have paved." If you're going to be a writer you have to come from some place and if you're going to be a writer you have to be a reader first. What these literacy programs create are readers first. In the hope, I hope, of writers next. And these writers will come from some place. Stories from an Aboriginal place, a place that needs more and more voice and more and more ears." Tara June Winch is an Indigenous Australian writer. Her first novel Swallow the Air won the David Unaipon Award for Inidigenous Writers, the Victorian Premiers Literary Award for Indigenous Literature, the NSW Premiers Literary Award for New Writing and the Dobbie Award for Womens first writing. Tara sits of the Australia Council Board for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Arts, works as a freelance writer and lives with her darling daughter, Lila on the beach.
"Shared children's stories and rhymes are the foundation of culture. The Indigenous Literacy Foundation not only provides much needed resources to remote communities and promotes the joy of reading in the broader population ... it provides a new generation of Indigenous children with the passion and pride in their stories that I hope will flow to the general community in the form of beautifully written and illustrated books. This project is a real opportunity for all Australians to get involved in a simple, effective and meaningful community activity. I encourage you, your school, your bookclub or your organisation to be involved."

This is how I did it:
- Placed 120g flour (half wholemeal spelt and half white) into a bowl.
- Added 10g cocoa, 1/2 tsp of mustard powder, a pinch of sea salt and a good grinding of black pepper.
- Rubbed in 50g unsalted butter until a breadcrumb like consistency was achieved.
- Added 50g grated Cheddar cheese and mixed in.
- Added about 2 tbsp water bit by bit until the mixture was ready to be bought together in a ball but not wet - always quite difficult to judge in my experience.
- Rolled the dough out to about 6mm thick and cut 8 cm rounds out with a cutter reforming the offcuts into a ball and rolling again. I got 19 biscuits.
- Placed on a baking tray and baked for 12 minutes at 180C.
- Removed from the tray and left to cool on a wire rack.
Luckily, Ros of The More Than Occasional Baker has picked B for this month's Alpha Bakes so I am going to submit these as B for Biscuits. This challenge is co-hosted alternately by Caroline Makes.
