Hey guys, we have a new thread for the next class of Summoner's Academy! Follow Aviraaaa's link above to check it out!
In-game name: TheScarredBow Level: 30 Role in Summoner's Academy: Mentor/Co-founder. About me: I have been playing League of Legends since Karma came out, and learnt alot from a place called LoL University. Unfortunately the LoL University has become less of a learning ground for new players, but just a general chatroom. One of the things I miss about the old LoL University is the Proving Grounds, which was a bi-weekly event where some new players would play with more experienced players in hopes that the experienced players would teach the newer ones. This event has stopped, but we are starting it up again. I was taught League of Legends by level 30's and it was a great experience. I just wanna give back to the League of Legends community.

In-game name: DunRingill Level: 30 Role in Summoner's Academy: Mentor/Co-founder. About me: I have been playing League of Legends for close to a year. Early on, I joined LoL University. I enjoyed meeting the people and learning from their Proving Grounds Events. In the time I was there, I was taught League of Legends by experienced level 30's. I found it to be an enjoyable learning experience. I don't consider myself a top player by any means but I do feel I know enough to help contribute to the LoL community.
Imagine Peace
Supporting bump for Avira! If I still played I'd coach y'all to the 1700s. ;3
I'd say move this to gen discussion forums when the date gets closer =X but bump!!! support this awesomeness
Summoner Name: DanyaHerald lvl: 9atm Champ: Ahri About Me: I'm a very new player who would like to learn how to play competently. I enjoy the game and I'm hoping to be able to help my friends do well when they play with me. I've played some COT, and original DOTA, but not much.
Atleast someone cares about People in League ^.^
In-game name: Wonton55 Level: 30 Role in Summoner's Academy: Mentor About me: I have been playing League of Legends since March 2010. The newest champion when I started playing was Ezreal. I had no DotA or HoN experience before that, so I know about the pain of trying to learn League of Legends from scratch. As of now, I have over 1500 games under my belt and was as high as 1612 Elo in ranked solo queue in season 1. I play a lot of junglers - mainly Lee Sin and Amumu now, but I've played just about every traditional jungler (and many non-traditional ones) at some point. My other roles are AP, top lane, and support. I'll play AD if I have to, but I find just about every other type of champion more fun (yes, even supports :P). I look forward to teaching some people about LoL in upcoming games!

The Face Book quarterly results are very bad-but not surprising as FB has declining advertising revenues and their business is predicted to fail.
The IPO made a lot of money for insiders but the regular investor was fooled and deceived about the state of FB future earning.
FB was a fad that is going out of fashion.

Metabolic adaptations to chronic glucose infusion in rats

- … show all 3 hide
Several studies have employed the chronic glucose infusion protocol to quantify the metabolic adaptations associated with a prolonged glucose challenge. However, the limited number of indices and time points reported by these studies has generated an incomplete picture of this process. In this study we aimed to generate an integrative and dynamic picture of the physiological adaptations that occur during chronic glucose infusion.
Sprague–Dawley rats were infused with either 50% dextrose or saline (2 ml/h) for a period of between 0 and 6 days. Glucose, insulin and NEFA dynamics were determined from daily blood samples. Subsets of animals were killed daily for histological determination of beta cell mass, size and replication rates. The mathematical model of coupled beta cell mass, insulin and glucose (the βIG model) was used to estimate insulin sensitivity, beta cell function and net neogenesis from this data.
Glucose-infused rats displayed transient hyperglycaemia, persistent hyperinsulinaemia and unchanged NEFA levels. Insulin sensitivity decreased by approximately 80% during the first day of glucose infusion, but had returned to pre-infusion levels by Day 3. Beta cell function was four to six times higher than in control rats throughout the experiment. Beta cell mass doubled over the 6 days of glucose infusion due to three phases of adaptation: (i) neogenesis; (ii) hypertrophy and hyperplasia; and (iii) continued hyperplasia coupled to a second wave of neogenesis.
Contrary to the results reported for perfused pancreas and in vitro experiments, we found that chronic glucose infusion elevated beta cell function. The prediction of a second wave of beta cell neogenesis, coupled with our previous report of "focal areas" on Day 3, suggests the existence of delayed acinar-to-islet transdifferentiation.

Best Way to Level Up Xin?
I've been looking at quite a few xin guides, and for the most part, each guide's skill level-up sequence tends to differ. I'm pretty sure it's usually best to get at least one point in all abilities early on due to the synergy of the entire kit, but I'm always wondering which ability to further level up on.
Here are the stats that you get beyond the first level of each ability. Leveling up Three Talon Strike gives: +45 (total) extra physical damage, -1 second to cooldowns Leveling up Battle Cry gives: +10% attack speed on activation, +6 heal passive, and -1 second to cooldowns Leveling up Audacious Charge gives: +40 extra magic damage, +5% slow, and -1 second to cooldowns So how do you recommend skilling up Xin? |
Audacious charge. 3 Talon will let you chain Audacious in a single skirmish if you level e.
I recommend the Charge as the first thing to max. Charge adds the most damage in a reliable-bursty manner, and the -1 cooldowns is pretty important.
When you charge someone, as stated your slow only lasts for 2 sec, enough to get in your 3 Qs and thus a knockup. After that, they are free to escape. It takes about 2 seconds to beat on them and knock them up (and u have a 2 sec slow). If you have a 12 sec charge (with say 10% CDR to 10.8), then after 3 Qs and 2 sec you still have a CD of 5.8 seconds. They gonna escape. But with an 8 sec CD (7.2 with 10% CDR), you have a 2.2 sec CD after the charge. This gives you a much much better chance of re-charging them to re-engage and re-slow. The improved quality of the slow is also a minor but noteworthy factor. From there, either Q or W can be leveled. W gives you the lifegain and you may wind up taking it over Charge or Q if you needed more sustain. During jungling, 1 rank of W is plenty for quite a while. But 10% AS is pretty weaksauce and the -1 CD is mostly irrelevant since you will likely only use it once per engagement even on a re-charge. 10% AS at .672 base speed is 0.0672, or about 1 extra attack every 15 seconds of continuous attacking. Meh. Maxing Q is a bit deceptive because its cooldown DOES NOT START until all 3 hits have happened!!! That means you Charge, autoattack,Ult maybe, Q...Q....Qknockup. NOW the Q CD starts... 2 sec later you re-charge the bad guy but even a maxed Q still has another 3 sec CD. |
I max Q, as it is your main damage. Then E and W
Top Lane should max Q for the reduced cooldown and bonus damage.
Jungle should max E for the slow. |
Top lane: Q > W > E.
Jungle: E at level 4 but max it first. |
Charge = 40 magical damage, always works instantly. Q = 15 damage PER HIT and even if you can get all 3 hits in (unlikely), its only 45 vs 40 dmg per rank. Most of the time Charge will do more damage per rank than ranking Q will. Lessened cooldown on Q doesn't matter AT ALL during laning.. you will never ever ever get in two sets of Qs until your Charge is maxed since the CD doesnt even START until the knockup. |
All times are GMT -8. The time now is 11:31 PM. |

I'm a total workaholic but I'm also always down to go out and have a good time, especially if it involves seeing live music. I travel as much as possible and I love to be outdoors. If I could live at the beach I would! I love to try new things and like to view every day as a new chance to have amazing experiences. I'm looking for someone who can make me laugh out loud, who wakes up smiling and who always finds the silver lining.

I have two tables related: DataEntered and Model
DataEntered -currentModel
One DataEntered can have only ONE Model, but a Model can stay into many DataEntered.
The relationship is from DataEntered to Model (No To Many-relathionship) and no inverse relation.
XCode generates the setters for DataEnteredModel:
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSSet * current_model;
- (void)addCurrent_modelObject:(CarModel *)value;
- (void)addCurrent_model:(NSSet *)value;
I have a Table and when I select a model, I want to store it to DataEntered:
Model *model = [fetchedResultsController objectAtIndexPath:indexPath];
NSLog(@"Model %@",model.name); // ==> gives me the correct model name
[dataEntered addCurrent_modelObject:model]; // ==> always nil
[dataEntered setCurrent_model:[fetchedResultsController objectAtIndexPath:indexPath]]; // the same, always nil
what I'm doing wrong ?????
You're right, first I had a to-many relationship, and XCode generated the entity code, that's why after changed the relathionship it still was set as a SET.
Now I've re-generated the entity, and now I have the property like this:
@property (nonatomic, retain) CarModel * current_car_model;
But I'm still getting the same problem.
Now, I've added the inverse relathionship and re-generated the entities. Both entities hav a TO-One relationship. Still having the same problem.
Ok, another try: The relathionship from model to DataEntered is now To-Many. The entites are regenerated again, and now the model is assigned with:
Model *model = [fetchedResultsController objectAtIndexPath:indexPath];
[dataEntered addCurrent_modelObject:model];
And the very last, both relathions are to-many. The same problem exists.
But what I don't understand is why I have to have an inverse relation in this case.
To resume: how I have to define my relations in this case ?
DataEntered can have only ONE Model.
Each Model can be related into many DataEntered.
In an SQL database definition, a field with the id of the model stored in a simple longint field in the DataEntered would be enough. When the relathion is to-many I can't see the field in the .sqlite database, now that I've changed again into To-One, I can see the current_model field as integer. But again, I have in the Model table a field with the related DataEntered, and I think this is wrong, as I'm not going to store Nothing here.
Any light would be appreciated ...
thanks .....

For sure, mead is an excecise in patience. There are a couple things you could be tasting. Fusel alcohols taste hot and burny. Yeast bite tastes gaggy.
I always bulk age my meads/melomels at least a year, often longer. I NEVER bottle anything cloudy, it should be crystal clear IMHO. Regards, GF.
The only time I dumped a mead was when it grew moldy, and I know exactly what went so horribly wrong, and I should have know it would do that. I still cringe at that mistake. I had started two 4 liter jugs of mead with about 3.5 pounds of honey each, let those go for a few weeks (probably too long, and the yeasties died off most likely). I then added several pounds (I was lax in my record keeping back then) of frozen mango and strawberries to a 3 gallon carboy and racked the mead from both jugs over the fruit. Then, noting there was a GREAT deal of headspace, instead of doing what a normal person should do and add glass beads, I tried topping it off with water. No extra honey. A few weeks went by and fermentation hadn't started again. Then I forgot about it. And it grew mold.
Dunno if it adds to the discussion, but I made a batch using basswood honey last year. The honey has an interesting minty flavor which I thought would be neat, but after fermentation was complete the mead just tasted grassy. After sitting for nearly a year, the vegetal flavor has faded considerably - it almost tastes good now.
It dings when there's stuff.
If it tastes like wet cardboard, it's oxidized. I once had to dump 9 gallons of oxidized mead, that was a sad, sad day for me. The whole back lot reeked of booze for a week! I avoid that now by using a campden tablet when I rack 1/6 gallons. If you're getting "paint thinner" or "rubber stopper" type flavours, it's likely fusel alcohols, these will eventually age out. If it just tastes "hot" it's likely just young & should mellow with age. The higher the ABV, the longer it'll need to age. Patience & time are your friends when it comes to mead. Regards, GF.

It's not the thought of what lies in his future that stops Mahe Drysdale from sleeping comfortably.
Instead, Drysdale said that he's still unable to sleep on his right-hand side due to the shoulder injury that nearly derailed his Olympic gold medal-winning campaign.
But the 33-year-old said with the rest of his body holding up well, his instincts tell him that "four more years" may not just be a George Gregan phrase.
While Drysdale isn't rushing a decision on whether to continue in the sport following the memorable gold in London, he is working through the issues - and the signs look hopeful for a tilt at Rio 2016.
"You're thinking about that all the time - each day you wake up and decide how you feel," Drysdale said.
"I'm not going to make a snap decision. I want to think about how I feel about the prospect of rowing for the next four years, how do I feel about the prospect of retiring?
"It's a four-year commitment to Rio - you don't want to find after two or three months that you don't want to be back.
"But I still feel like I've got more that I can do in rowing - I guess my gut's saying there's more to come."
Drysdale said he was enjoying the spoils of victory, his longest break since the 2008 Beijing Olympics and not having any immediate plans to get back into a boat.
"I might just have a year out and do different things. If that is the case I've got to make sure I stay fit and stay active, because then you keep your options open."
He was, however, working through some internal debates.
"Is my body capable of doing it again? I've had a tough four years. I've got to be confident that my body's going to stand up to another four years of training. Then it comes down to a mental thing - have you got the passion, have you got the desire?"
Drysdale said his troublesome back "was as good as it's ever been", meaning most of his decision came down to desire.
"I feel like I've achieved everything I wanted to in the sport, so if I want to go for another four years it's got to be that that gold medal is just as much of a desire as this one was."
Drysdale said the rest should also help his shoulder heal, given he had little time to rest it after being knocked off his bike while on a training ride in Munich in mid-June.
The champion single sculler said the crash came as a complete surprise and when he realised what happened, fears that he may be in doubt for the Olympics flooded his thoughts.
"Lying on the ground, immediately I could feel my ribs - they were pretty sore and I was struggling to breathe. I could feel my shoulder was pretty sore.
"My legs were pretty good and didn't feel like anything was broken, but I was concerned about my ribs and my shoulder.
"There was just relief when you know nothing's broken, 'cos that's going to take 6-8 weeks and I only had six weeks to the Olympics.
"By that night they'd cleared me of any major injury - I had an AC joint as the major problem, perhaps some cracked ribs. I knew then at least I was going to be at the Olympics."
When he got back in the boat after three weeks' break, coach Dick Tonks put Drysdale through a virtual race scenario.
"Dick made me do a 2k piece flat out and that gave me the confidence that I could still row, and even though it hurt it wasn't going to affect the way I raced. From then on I was pretty confident going back into the Olympics I could be where I needed to be.
"I knew from the experience I have got that I could pull it together in a couple of days because it was a technical rather than physical thing."
However, Drysdale then had to overcome a severe case of nerves on the morning of his final that took him completely by surprise.
"Semis usually make me a bit nervous. Once I got through that semifinal I thought 'thank goodness that's over, now I can relax and just enjoy the Olympics' but it was a very different situation and I've never suffered from nerves that bad."
Drysdale felt it probably came from the awareness of how big the occasion was after "letting one slip in Beijing".
"It took me half an hour to eat a bowl of cereal. I went and had a wee sleep and then when I woke up I started throwing up."
His day had a happy ending though, allowing him to do things on his return to New Zealand "I haven't had the chance to do anything like in 12 years".
That included skiing last weekend, and a planned trip to watch the All Blacks play in Argentina at the end of September.

Jon cob. Have a trough of perpetual spinach which has gone through the winter, never got around to composting it and thought I read somewhere it starts to grow again in Spring. It's still green leaved but the leaves look as tough as old boots
Darlo John. Found paper pots excellent but now use toilet rolls for pea's and beans. The cleaning lady at work saves them in exchange for a selection of flower seedlings in the Spring. Envious of your carrots, can't get them to grow longer than a couple of inches, for love nor money.
I'm beginning to get sowing fingers so have begun to plan this years veg plots...what to grow...where and when... so went through last years garden diary. Looks like the only veg which survived an early sowing were pea's early onward and brussels...sown at the end of February.
March was a far more successful month with toms, chillies, peppers, mangetout, sugar snap and purple podded pea's, sown in the first week of March and going on, with the exception of peppers, to produce bumper early crops after the fab warm Easter we had.
All the pea's went out into the GH on 17th March hard to believe now.
What did other posters sow, that was successful...
I'm in the 1237 review club too
Keep mowing... I had loads of dandilions in my lawn... and they grew back even after a re-turf... tried ever chemical known to man to get rid of them but it's been regular mowing which cured the lawn, along with a weed and feed in Autumn and Spring.
I've also decided on a new strawberry patch. Bought four new varieties at the weekend and have one already in the garden whch grows runners, along with two apline varieties. You can never have enough strawberries
I'm also thinking of more pots of flowers and I might even dig up more of the lawn to make another flower bed, haven't yet decided.
Wet and windy here.
Another fence panel looking like it won't last the night. On Saturday I contacted the owners family of next door to discuss replacing all the panels, offering to pay half of the cost for replacement and do the work, he sounded very plesant but wanted to think it over and contact his daughter who owns the property, said he'd get back Sunday...when there was no call, I'm thinking here we go...a dispute over the fence...
Had a call back this evening...said neighbour had visited the property over Christmas whilst I was away and was making arrangements to replace it and cover the cost, as we are both responsible for the fence I'll cover half the cost but how nice is that, she hasn't lived there for over 2yrs.
Dull, grey skies and cold here, not shed cleaning weather, so it was a trip to the GC in search of some Red Duke of York spuds, mission aaccomplished and they were cheaper than Wilkinsons. Also looked round the sale section and bought 6 plants for 50p each.
The fruit cage sounds a good plan.
Very nice David. I haven't as many but they are about the same...makes a mental note about watering...
My eye sight mustn't be as good as it was, it possibly did go a pale pink at the end of the summer but the change went unnoticed, I checked the picture which came with the plant from greenline and it looks white, must have been taken at the beginning of the summer and not the end
My Lavatera, Barnsley has white flowers with red centre's, it's a semi evergreen shrub. Flowers June to September not had a problem yet with it self seeding.

It seems like everytime I view the Fas website more and more real jobs are dissapearing from it and being replaced with free labour internships. When I search for specific sectors now all I seem to find are internships. This scheme is absolutely sickening me as it has potentially destroyed several thousand entry level jobs. I can't believe that Joan Burton and the labour party have completely ruined the youth labour market with a scheme which is:

The astonishing tapes show senior manager John Bowe, who had been involved in negotiations with the Central Bank, laughing and joking as he tells another senior manager, Peter Fitzgerald, how Anglo was luring the State into giving it billions of euro. Mr Fitzgerald had not been involved in the negotiations with the Central Bank and has confirmed he was unaware of any strategy or intention to mislead the authorities. Mr Bowe, in a statement last night, categorically denied that he had misled the Central Bank.

This year's G8 promises to be different for a number of reasons. G8s and G8 protests have, by now, become something of a ritual. One where each side already knows the rules of the game. The great and good come together to discuss how they might set the world to right, and the protestors outside condemn them for not doing it quickly enough or not really intending to do it at all. Charity is promised to Africa, and folks like Sir Bob Geldof will proclaim that a successful G8 has been had. Other folks will throw bricks and bottles at the police, and feel that they have stuck a blow for the cause. What cause exactly is not always clear. The media have a field day a morning glimpse of presidents and prime ministers, and then spend the rest of the day with the unwashed outside; hoping that they will start a riot or, at least, do something that looks good on camera and will fill thirty seconds on primetime news. And the general public have a little bit of entertainment to lighten the daily drudge of work, or more and more commonly, unemployment. So why should the G8 Summit on the 17th and 18th of June 2013 be any different?

A previous plan for a private school on the site had been rejected for similar reasons in 2005. After the 2014 local elections the plan came back in a lightly tweaked form, with the developer's sister among a number of newly elected councillors supporting the project. A proposal to amend the development plan to include this project is due to be voted on this Tuesday evening, February 10th. Meanwhile some interesting shenanigans have developed.

Feb 15 0 comments We Americans (conditioned in the Hebrew tradition) have learned to see enemies in Biblical terms as one-sidedly evil as Satan. It takes a mass media of some very sophisticated accomplishment to continually portray people like Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, Muammar Gaddafi, several Middle Eastern leaders as Satan. One needs to be somewhat steeped in the Biblical Literature to create such black and white conclusions. This is one legacy the Bible has bequeathed to modern politicsthe absolutism of naming enemy in terms of good versus absolute evil. Israel plays a master game of such portrayal of their supposed enemies. The current leader of Syria, Bashar al-Assad is the new version of Zionist Satan, but even this casting of totally evil Muslim figure is not good enoughwe have a new entity that does the most obviously sensational sinsbehead journalists and engage in egregious forms of violationthe ISIS/ ISIL phenomenon that America magically armed and some claim even trained (see in alternative media) and magically uses to create even more authoritarian war powers to an already criminal torture state that Barack Obama has no power to quell. more >>MA in activism at Maynooth Mar 03 MA Community Education, Equality and Social Activism 0 comments Call-out for students for this autumn's MA in Community Education, Equality and Social Activism at Maynooth - please circulate!
