For once, on this tour, England appears desperate. Not withstanding a sound start at Rajkot, England's batting in the last two matches came a cropper. With India looking to seal the five-match series, with a hat-trick of triumphs, England faces a must-win situation on Wednesday.
From India's perspective, the team is on the threshold ending the run of losses at home this season. After two easy victories, by setting and chasing targets, the Indian team is obviously high on confidence. In fact, winning three out of the four ODIs in the past fortnight has injected the Indian team with the much needed self-belief.
At present, the opposite is true for this England side. On a high after a narrow victory in a high-scoring opener of the one-day series, England hit a low with two thumping defeats following two scores under 160. After all, when a team scores in excess of 300 in one match and then aggregates less than half of that twice in succession, the top-order has to take responsibility for the results. So England expects Alistair Cook, Ian Bell, Kevin Pietersen, Eoin Morgan and Craig Kieswetter – the men who set the tone at Rajkot – to come good and the bowlers to come hard at the Indians in the cooler environs of this city.
Of the lot, Pietersen is due a big game-changing knock. He tossed away good starts at Rajkot and Kochi before being erroneously given out at Ranchi. If Pietersen decides to stay longer instead of rushing with
his stroke-play as seen so far in the series, it could well be England's day.
Much was also expected from Kieswetter since England has invested time on this wicketkeeper-batsman. Chances of Jos Buttler coming in for Kieswetter cannot be ruled out on Thursday. Similarly, England can consider replacing Jade Dernbach with Stuart Meaker.
Given the inconsistency of the Indian bowlers, the England batting can hope to come good again but the visiting team's bowling quality looks grossly below par.
The decision to rest James Anderson for the ODI series and snowfall keeping Stuart Broad at home has not helped England's cause. One wonders how the Indians batsmen would have coped with Graeme Swann and Monty Panesar in the ODIs, especially after the impressions these spinners left on the Test series last year. The Indian team, which played to expectations at Mahendra Singh Dhoni's hometown last week, would like to continue the form in Yuvraj Singh's first home-game since his return to the National squad.
Dhoni would like to go in with an unchanged squad. It will also be interesting to see how Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Shami Ahmed bowl in friendly conditions.
The pitch, re-laid after the 2011 World Cup semifinals between India and Pakistan, is the same what hosted two decisive Ranji Trophy matches this season. The hardness of the pitch, with a touch of grass, has traditionally assisted the pace bowlers. With good 'carry' in seam friendly conditions, this venue should make the English fast bowlers feel more at home.
With the English camp increasingly unsure of the fifth match taking place at Dharamshala in the present conditions – with fresh snowfall holding up the road traffic and the chartered plane carrying the teams
being too small to accommodate all concerned – the visiting team can be expected to give it all.
The teams:
India: Mahendra Singh Dhoni (Captain), Gautam Gambhir, Ajinkya Rahane, Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina, Ravindra Jadeja, R. Ashwin, Bhuveshwar Kumar, Ishant Sharma, Shami Ahmed, Rohit Sharma, Cheteshwar Pujara, Amit Mishra and Ashok Dinda.
England: Alastair Cook (Captain), Jonny Bairstow, Ian Bell, Tim Bresnan, Danny Briggs, Jade Dernbach, Steven Finn, Craig Kieswetter, Stuart Meaker, Eoin Morgan, Samit Patel, Kevin Pietersen, James Tredwell, Chris Woakes and Jos Buttler.

Antagonistic effects of Pseudomonas fluorescens, P. aeruginosa and P. putida were studied against 12 strains of Aeromonas hydrophila (Ah1–Ah12). Four different fractions of cellular component (i.e. whole cell product, heat killed whole cell product, intra cellular product and extra cellular product) of all Pseudomonas species were equally effective in reducing growth of A. hydrophila strains, as measured by the zone of inhibition in an in vitro sensitivity test and have potential action against A. hydrophila infection in fishes.

DHHS Div. of Licensing and Regulatory Services
Agency Rules Reports by DHHS Dept. of Licensing and Regulation Services
Maine has allowed prescribing, and limited possession, of medical marijuana since 1999 but the law lacked any distribution mechanism and questions arose of noncompliance with federal law and of how patients could legally obtain the prescribed marijuana. In October 2009 the Obama adminstration announced that it would halt prosecution of medical marijuana users and caregivers if they were in compliance with their state's law [read more]. On November 3, 2009 Maine voters approved Question 5, which enacted the citizen-initiated bill, "An act to establish the Maine Medical Marijuana Act" (LD 975, IB 2). The committee file for LD 975 contains additional information, such as the activity schedule, testimony sign-in sheet, testimony submitted at the public hearing, working papers and memoranda of the Joint Standing Committee on Health and Human Services, and the committee vote tally sheet. (The contents of the file are not word searchable.) Maine was the fifth state to provide for dispensaries of medical grade marijuana for persons with debilitating and chronic medical conditions. These not-for-profit dispensaries will be licensed and regulated by the Maine Department of Health and Human Services.
Following the November 2009 election, results were verified by the Secretary of State [see tabulations]. Governor Baldacci's press release of November 6, 2009 detailed an executive order which set up a task force chaired by Brenda Harvey, Commissioner of DHHS. On November 17, 2009, the Governor announced the names of the members of the task force. The Task Force issued its report to the Governor on January 27, 2010. The subsequent 2010 enactment of LD 1811, the Governor's bill, paved the way for promulgation of agency rules under the Administrative Procedures Act. Emergency rules were adopted on May 5, 2010 . Only eight dispensaries (one for each of the eight districts) were approved for the first year. Instructions and applications, as well as the text of the rules, are available on DHHS' Division of Licensing and Regulatory Services webpage.
Local governments also prepared for implementation of the law. Initially one community enacted a moratorium on the dispensaries. Brewer's city council voted unanimously to ban dispensaries for six months until the state rules and procedures for operating the dispensaries were in place. Since then Auburn, Ellsworth and South Portland have enacted or plan to enact similar moratoriums. For more recent developments see news article links in the tan column on the right.

FRIDAY, March 14, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Looking for new ways to motivate your kids to be active? Gardening can provide a good workout for children, according to a new study.
Researchers assessed 17 South Korean children, about age 12, as they did a number of gardening chores such as digging, raking, hoeing, weeding, mixing growing medium, planting seeds and young plants, watering and mulching.
The children visited two gardens twice, and did five different tasks during each visit.
The youngsters had five minutes to complete each task and were allowed a five-minute rest between each one. Researchers Sin-Ae Park and colleagues monitored the children's heart rate, energy output and oxygen uptake.
The gardening activities provided the children with moderate to high physical activity. Digging and raking were high intensity, while the other activities were moderate intensity, according to the study published recently in the journal HortTechnology.
The findings could be used to develop garden-based exercise programs for children, the researchers said in a journal news release.
More information
The U.S. National Library of Medicine has more about children and exercise.

Strand & Pier, a three-story hotel with a rooftop pool and 111 rooms could open be at the northwest corner of The Strand and Pier Plaza in Hermosa Beach as early as 2018. Photo Courtesy of Bolour Associates, Inc.
A modern, coastal design for the proposed Strand & Pier hotel in downtown Hermosa Beach was unveiled for Hermosa Beach residents and civic leaders Monday evening. The hotel on the current Mermaid restaurant site could be completed as early as 2018, its developers said.
HKS architect Tom Sprinkle said his design was inspired in part by Hermosa chalk graffiti, one of which read, "Fun is good." Photos by Kevin Cody
Real estate developer Bolour Associates of Los Angeles, Provenance Hotels of Portland and Hill Glazier Studio (HKS) of San Francisco presented the renderings at a community meeting, held at the Beach House Hotel, adjacent to the proposed hotel.
HKS architect Tom Sprinkle said the design was inspired by Hermosa's fun, beach lifestyle and the city's jazz history.
The proposed hotel, as viewed from the volleyball courts just nort of the pier.
"The building is trying to be almost like frozen music, I guess you could say," Sprinkle said, referencing Goethe's famous observation that "architecture is frozen music."
While residents were not opposed to the aesthetics of the hotel, some expressed concern that it was too big for a town that is less than two square miles.
Retail and restaurants would occupy the first floor along Pier Plaza.
The 111-room hotel, with a 15,000 sq. ft. restaurant and a rooftop pool and umbrellas (which the city counts in its height limit calculations) would be 45 feet tall. Hermosa's current height limit is 30 feet. Increasing the height limit to 45 feet would require voter approval.
"You have decided to bring an urban hotel to a small town," said Hermosa Beach resident Raymond Dussault. "I think you need to start thinking about bringing a small hotel to a small town."
Former Hermosa Beach councilman Jim Rosenberger asks how the proposed hotel would be marketed. Provenance's Bashar Wali responded, "If you visit our web site, even once, we will track you down on Facebook and other social media sites until you book a room."
Other residents expressed support for the hotel, saying it would allow more people to enjoy Hermosa Beach.
"In my world, we always want people to come to Hermosa Beach because we love it here," Chris Miller, who grew up in Hermosa Beach, said.
Provenance chief financial officer Bashar Wali said his hotel will generate over $1 million for the city in bed taxes.
The hotel would generate over $1 million annually in TOT (Transient Occupancy Tax) revenue for the city and approximately 120 jobs, Bashar Wali, Provenance's chief financial officer said.
The developers' schematic of the hotel shows a 15-foot first floor, two 10-foot floors and a pool, umbrellas and rooftop equipment adding another 10 feet.
Strand & Pier project manager Adam Eisenberg said his team will submit a development application to the city in early August. Work on an environmental impact report for the hotel will begin at the end of August or in early September, Eisenberg said.

Uh oh.. UPDATE: The official tissue...
PREVIOUS: Kendrick Lamar x VEVO Lift (Video)
Posted in News | Tags: dr. dre, kendrick lamar
glad kendricks in front on this.
dre riding his coattails to stay relevant.
I'll buy this one for the future.
The fuck is up with Dre? I swear every time I see him he looks more and more creepy. Dude needs to chill with that mean mug and tight ass shirt.
just wondering. do any of these magazines go up in value ?
^Don't think so. You never know though. If something happens to Kendrick in the near feature (not wishing anything on him) then they might.
Dre did 1 song with him so far, waaaayyy after he already had a monstrous buzz. And apparently he is bringing Kendrick to us? WTF?!
Butt Buddy's for L i f e .
what is it with yall sayin ppl using kendrick to stay relevant? few ppl outside of la or blog regulars know who he is, 98% of ppl in real life know dre. retards. and dead @ dre lookin like iron man in the background
and kendrick will never be a star outside of anybodys itunes. he has no mass appeal
^what do you mean, only "bloggers" know who kendrick is? every hip hop fan i know goes on hip hop blogs, it's not like only nerds use the internet anymore, everyone does. I live in Toronto and almost everyone I know who listens to rap even a little bit knows who Kendrick is and almost everyone fucks with him.
let the dick sucking begin
Everyone who listens to rap. Anyone who listens to music has heard of Dr. Dre
Dre is like jay z in the west. imagine that cover with j. cole and jay z standing behind him. pretty much the same to me.
Kendrick is the GOAT hands down no argument and Im not even gonna come back here to check your responses so dont even try. Its a proven fact.
Almost everyone knows K Dot. People who only used to listen to the radio are on livemixtapes and shit now.
Say what you want about Dre but the guy knows talent and knows how to bring it to the next level.
this looks kinda homo thug erotic. cant have this nigga dre standing behind ya while you crouched over like that. uhggggg...
2nd rapper that was a freshman 10 to be on the cover by himself. keep up the hardwork k.dot. cant wait til october 2nd
^^ you mean 2011
How is Dr. Dre "bringing us" Kendrick Lamar? Pretty sure Kendrick did all the legwork to create his buzz.
Not a big fan of Dre these days.
This cover is dope. Kendrick is best young rapper doing it. Dre has wholeheartedly endorsed him, which increases my already high-level of respect for him. Hip-Hop is alive and well. None of the negative nonsense matters.
Hmm might cop but think I'll pass my $5 probably deserves to stay in my wallet anywys and "Almost everyone knows K Dot. People who only used to listen to the radio are on livemixtapes and shit now." << datpiff
Wow did my phone really put that wtf haha well to sum it up livemixtapes > datpiff they tag up even when u delete em on iTunes they still pop up smh
it looks like this niggah dre fuckn kendrick in the ass!?!? metaphorically.
Anybody saying some dumb shit as if Dr Dre is trying to ride off Kendricks buzz is just ridiculous. Do you have any idea who Dr Dre is and was before Krendrick even showed up? Just stop it cause Dre is not a new artist thats just now trying to get in the game, he been here so its really Kendrick who is gaining buzz by standing next to Dre. Anyway being that Dre is there, he need to just give Kendrick a hit record cause no offense to TDE's own production squad but I think Kendrick needs a stronger sound for at least one single. If they not even gonna put out the video for The Recipe just make a whole new song. Now I know some people mite say Dre aint got no dope records for Kendrick but chances are he does have that type of record in the stash that he can just give to Kendrick.
Dre is supporting and working with Kendrick to make his work better. I'm not saying Kendrick needs it, but two genius hip hop minds is better then one. I'm definitely feeling the cover.
I can't wait for October 2nd.
here my 2 cents: Dre, if you wanna me Detox a legenday, classic album, you need to feature legendary classic artists (nas, jayz, eminem, snoop, warren G, alicia keys, kanye, etc...) leave these kids alone. I respect that you trying to flourish artists careers, but now is not the time. this is could be your last album. dont fuck it up!
Dre workin that botox ain't he.
imo dre has not shown any sign that he's "still got it". everything i've heard from him the past few years has been shit. i'm a huge fan of his older/classic music but let's be real, the dude can't make beats for shit anymore. *waits for dr. dre to prove otherwise*
@2, I Need A Doctor was nominated for a grammy, the Relapse album got alot of positive reviews based on the production aside from just the lyrics from Em and Crack A Bottle also won a grammy. Kush wasn't all that but it knocked and 3 kings and New Day by 50 cent also goes. Whether Dre made the beat or was just part of the song in anyway, it's impossible to front on Dre because even though he only drops a few songs here and there, they always make some kinda impact. Even if you think some of his songs in the last few years suck, its still dont matter because Dre is gonna be heard on anything his name is associated with. Kendrick without Dre vs Kendrick with Dre is two different levels of potential dopeness imo.
Also T.i - Popped Off and Obie Trice - Bottoms Up Intro
@ A$tro he's the 2nd one since xxl been doing the freshman list. lupe was the first one
@Marty Wait for the chronic. (if you feel like waiting that long) Then we'll hear Kendrick on some classic shit. I feel Dre is doing with Kendrick like he did with Em. Remember the Chronic 2001? LEGENDARY
^^^ Dre is probably just listening to Kendricks work and then saying ok, go back in and change this and change that and then getting on the boards and bending the music more tight around Kendricks lyrics. That in itself makes the music sound better. Whether he produces the beat or not he still has experience on just how the music should come across.

What the Code 10 Error Is
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
In order to understand Code 10 errors, it's important to first understand the origin of Code 10 errors: drivers. Drivers are small pieces of software that provide a hardware device with the instructions for communicating with other hardware devices and the operating system. Drivers bridge the gap between hardware and software compatibility, creating a platform upon which hardware devices can operate and cooperate with other components of a computer. Drivers are just as essential to the functionality of a hardware device as the physical device itself. The driver completes the hardware device by providing it with the instructions necessary to function and operate normally.
Driver updates are improvements or enhancements to the original driver design of a hardware device. Developers attempt to improve the existing hardware by implementing these driver updates. The initial release of any given hardware device is accompanied by a driver that provides functionality for the device, but is not optimized to operate in the most efficient mannar, nor perform at optimal speeds. Sometimes, the only real way to test something is to introduce it to the world. After bugs and shortcomings with the driver are discovered, the developers go back to the drawing board. The driver is in continued development long after the initial release of the device. The driver developers attempt to enhance or accelerate the performance of the existing hardware by making changes or updates to the driver.
Common Causes of Code 10 Errors
Code 10 error messages are produced by hardware devices that "cannot start". This failure to start is in direct relation to a bad or faulty device driver. Code 10 errors are reported by the Windows Device Manager and are a clear indicator that the driver for the malfunctioning hardware device is either corrupted or generating errors of it's own. In either case, the hardware device driver has gone bad during its operation and should be replaced.
Common causes of Code 10 errors...
The driver is out-of-date.
The driver is missing.
The driver is corrupt.
A previous attempt to update the driver failed.
The device is not configured as the default device.
The device is not plugged in correctly or all the way.
The device is damaged.
The first and best step to take when troubleshooting code 10 errors is to uninstall the present driver for the offending device, and then find, download and install the most current and up-to-date driver available. We've explained how to do that in our guide to manually fixing code 10 errors. However, a much easier, automated solution is discussed below. Hardware device drivers are hosted on the device manufacturers website and can be downloaded freely. You will first need to identify several specific details about the device you are attempting to repair. Because each device relies on it's own special driver to provide functionality, not just any driver can be downloaded and installed.
How to Easily FIX Code 10 Errors
Code 10 errors are nearly always caused by driver problems. Whether it is a misconfigured driver, a missing driver, or a corrupt driver, it is rather safe to assume that the problem is driver-related. Unfortunately, it is difficult to determine exactly which driver may be causing the issue. That is where the use of automated tools like DriverUpdate come into play.
DriverUpdate is able to scan your computer for out of date or missing device drivers, and recommend the best possible driver for your system configuration. It takes the guesswork out of fixing code 10 error messages. Additionally, it ensures that you only get the correct drivers, which is a big deal since installing an incorrect driver can result in a crash. DriverUpdate is made by SlimWare Utilities Inc.

5 Disturbingly AmazingDandieslegend | 23/06/2009 | See all Dandieslegend's reviews (3)This book is by far the best book regarding Mafia/underworld crime I have ever read. It seems to put you straight into the mind of Kuklinski. This book was hardly put down and i finished this within 2 days of reading it. This is a book that I will keep and read again and again. If you are a fan of true crime books this is the one to buy.
5 excellent readgirlgamer1989 | 02/04/2009 | See all girlgamer1989's reviews (164)Top 100 Games Reviewer Top 100 Clothing Reviewer this is a brilliant book about about a contract killer; it begins by describing his childhood, and how he became obviously psychotic, and how he got in to the 'business' of murdering for money. the book talks about his marriages (mainly the second one) and children; and how he can be both a decent man who provides for his family, spends time with his daughter when she was ill in hospital, and buys his wife anything she desires; as well as a violent psychopath who tortures people to death for both money and enjoyment, who beats his wife, and has such a violent temper he has murdered people over arguments when playing pool. It gradually goes on to explain how the police finally caught up with him after many years and why he had been able to get away with so much for so long.overall I thought this was an excellent book, and some parts can really make you cringe, when the author describes in gruesome detail how he tortured some of his victims.
5 The Ice ManErictheking66 | 27/08/2008 | See all Erictheking66's reviews (1)Completely Fantastic, definitly not for the squeamish but a must for any mafia fan, bought the book for holidays and started to read it a week before i went, after a day i had to look for another book for holiday, couldn't put it down.
5 Outstanding book, amazing insight into this worldrobbookboy | 25/08/2008 | See all robbookboy's reviews (1)this is the best book i have ever read, with regards to mafia contract killing etc. This book gives an amazing insight into the life and times of Richard Kuklinski, probably the most prollific and best contract killer in history. the book not only covers his contracts, but also his early life,his unusual mentality and amazing ability to emotionally deal with difficult situations. BUY THIS BOOK, i woulod happily have paid £20 for this book, its unlike anything else around, and you will not be disappointed
5 Superb readbeatznbass | 06/12/2011 | See all beatznbass's reviews (25)Excellent read. Almost impossible to believe what this guy actually did during his lifetime.One messed up little bunny.If you like any gangsta or true crime books get this.And on the plus side barely any swear words!!GET IT

Cerv's offering up a sweet treat

By MATTHEW KENWRIGHT
The Cerv's Conoco at 27th and Vine in Hays is offering a new option for dessert fans.
Swirln-Dippity frozen yogurt now is available. For 49 cents per ounce, customers can customize the cold treat with 13 flavors and approximately 40 toppings.
Russ Pfannenstiel, the convenience store's owner, said he had the idea for several years. Remodeling the store freed up the space to add the yogurt and topping buffet.
"It's something that we felt was missing within this town," Pfannenstiel said.
Carissa Kotschwar, a Cerv's employee, said the dessert has been well-received since it debuted Thursday.
"It's been astronomical," she said. "It's gone over very well."
The sea salt caramel pretzel flavor has been the most popular yogurt. Topping options include M&Ms, mini Junior Mints, Oreo cookies, Nerds candy, cookie dough and frosted animal crackers.
Jessie Havice, a graduate student at Fort Hays State University, visited Saturday and mixed cheesecake and mango yogurt together with nuts and strawberries. Havice said she expects Swirln-Dippity to make Cerv's even more popular.
The Swirln-Dippity stands are open 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Masteries Offense Archmage's Savvy - 0.60AP per level Cripple - Buffs Exhaust Sorcery - 3% CD reduction Archaic Knowledge - penetrates 15% of targets magic resisitance Defense Utility Perseverance - 4% total health and mana regain Good Hands - 10% reduced death time Expanded Mind - 5% maximum mana Meditation - Increases Mana regain by 1.00 Awareness - increased exp gain by 3.75 Intelligence - 6% CD reduction Mystical Vision - Increases duration of clairvoyance and reduces cooldown Presence Of The Master - 15% off summoner ability cooldowns Skills to increase when you can Starfall Infuse Astral Blessing Starfall Starfall Wish Starfall Starfall Infuse x4 Astral Blessing x4 The reason I get starfall first is so you can kill all creeps in two hits fast and you can actually level and get money though the whole game. I have done many version of Soraka before and all my games ended with me being at level 14-16 simply because I could not kill anything. So if you get starcall you will have enough money to fund the items and you will level faster then most of the other champions. Items Innervating Locket Boots of Swiftness Frozen Heart Aegis Of The Legion ___________________ My games normally end there if not before I even get the Aegis but if a game happens to last longer I will get Stark's Fervor (if no one else has) other then that I really don't know what else I would get. Runes Mana per level cooldown reduction Blue .9 cd/18 .65 cd/static 25.56x7= 178.92 Yellow 21.06/189.54/18 Red 21.06/189.54/18 Quintessence 2.34/18 2.34/18 75.06/18 If you get the CD mastery and a CD item in-game (the one I get) you are at 40% cd with one item. You may go higher with runes but I find it a waste and I personally like the mana,armor, and cd the item gives me. This is what I go for on her because once you get her to 40% cd reduction you can use her ult every 36secs. This becomes a life saver later and on top of that it helps your team push and stay alive in smaller fights because you wont have to worry that you won't have it later in another fight. *List of all my guides http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board...ad.php?t=18804 Disclaimer This is not the only viable way to play Soraka and is only how I do it and I am not forcing others to play this way. If you do not agree with a certain part of my guide/playstyle please post it in a mature manner and write exactly what you dislike. Also I am not looking for others to post their playstyle/guide in my guide if you wish to do so please make your own thread.
bump..guess this guide came out at the wrong time...when everyone started to play her.
Senior Member
i think its pretty sweet, innervating locket and frozen heart are definitely a must. do you think that you wouldn't need some AP at one point? just curious, it scales really well with wish and can add at tidbit to your heals/starfall damage
I have never came to a point where I thought "damn I would have saved them if I had more AP" usually either they live because of wish or they die and nothing could save them. Not to say if I went 100% AP it wouldn't save some of those lost causes but I find that those situations are not that common. I also find the boots to be a must as Soraka is damn slow without them but to answer your question I never notice or feel held-back because of my lack of AP. Starks can do just as well with giving everyone life steal and such as that little AP would give me...saying little as I would'nt have much room after all the items I want let alone the money problem. Or if you meant from runes..I am not sure I still tend to have mana problems end-game even with all my items and runes to give me mana. Not to say I run out of mana fast but once I am low on mana its hard to get it going back up..though if I happen to be out of all battles and back in a lane solo then well it will be fine. I find with my build you are a self-sustaining champion that is hard to kill..last game I played it took three of them to kill me along with Ashe slowing me down every shot. If the fourth person didn't show up to kill me I still would have died but my team would of had time to get to me and help.
You have mana problems because you stack Blessing early, which eats mana like nothing else, + you tend to run Infuse last. And maybe also because you don't grab Tear/Arch/RoA... but the ones who do tends to grab Infuse (for killing power) so that's kind of overkill I guess. No need for both Infuse AND mana items. Although, Locket is more than enough to facilitate your spamming if you levelled Blessing and Infuse evenly. And hmmm 36 second ult? far out, that's awesome.
I have actually changed my style some and am about to edit that in the first post By that I mean order of skills I now get infuse as I have come to notice the hot for astral is nothing to brag about and the armor stays the same at all levels and if anything that is the main thing doing its work.
^ Darn, so I should probably hold back on my own Soraka guide huh =\
If you play a lot differently then me then go for it...will even add it to my list
Dammit.. Soraka is starting to become popular. I guess it's about time I start looking for a greener pasture. I hate it when people pick my main hero. (I have yet to see another Soraka in my game, but she's really becoming a lot more popular). I prefer stacking Infuse over Starcall though. My first 2 levels are usually Starcall, then Infuse--if the opposing hero is a melee, then he's facing hell. As soon as he runs up to last hit, I can Starcall + Infuse him for hefty damage (about 100+ dmg) plus another auto attack. That is usually enough to send them packing. As for my boot choice, I usually go Ninja Tabi for extra survivability early game, or lately I have been using Boot of Mobility more. I notice that I'm usually either the first to die, or the first to run (when you're a healer, what else can you do?) which gives me enough time to charge up the boot for unrivaled speed.
I prefer having 1 level of Blessing, as I find that it scales well enough with AP, and I usually get quite a bit of AP. I also like having my Wishes heal people a lot, I find that it helps.

'I'm going to be happy'
- Gold Fields.
I stare at the tiny world within my hands. So small, so perfect, so complete. A sense of tranquillity and calm seems to resonate from within it. The ground is covered in a thick layer of pure white snow. So white that it practically glows. There is a miniscule house towards the back of the globe, dusted with a fresh coating of snow. A house that I imagine to be warm, cosy and welcoming. A house that is a home. Sometimes, when my troubles threaten to overwhelm me, I wish I could escape to that house. I wish that I could enter the perfect untainted world encapsulated flawlessly from within the snow globe. For it is a place that cannot be reached by everyday troubles. A haven free from despair and stress and that knows only beauty and seclusion. It is completely safe and isolated from danger, protected by the glass sphere that surrounds it.
What attracts me to this globe the most however, is the snowman at its very centre. His black eyes shine brightly, his orange nose points proudly, and the black buttons down his front are positioned faultlessly. His mouth has been moulded into a perfect smile, one that radiates happiness and contentment. His neck is wrapped in a striped blue and white scarf, his head protected by a warm black top hat. His body is constructed from the same unadulterated snow that surrounds him. He is perfect, just like the perfect world he lives in.
For me, the snow globe and its snowman are a symbol of resilience. Of strength. For no matter how hard I shake the snow globe, no matter how long I insist on rattling the world within, no matter how much I try to disrupt its serenity, when the snow settles it looks just as perfect as ever. Nothing changes. Everything is as it was. No matter how violently I shake his world, the snowman continues to smile. He never breaks his composure, never alters his happy disposition. No amount of force will change him. He is determined to smile. And that is what keeps me going. Whenever I am struggling through a situation and feel like giving up or breaking down, I think back to the snowman. And what he would do in my situation. And a smile overwhelms my face.
'Smile like you mean it'
- The Killers.
The sadistic giant before me shakes my world with all his might, a gleeful smile plastered all over his face. Every shake of his hand a thunderous attack. The snow wildly thrashing and flying around me. The transition from complete tranquillity to utter devastation instantaneous and unstoppable. I am immobilised, terrified, my feet stuck to the ground below me. My hat and scarf attached to me like a magnet. Holding me together.
There is nothing that I can do but to withstand the storm and wait for this torture to end. My mouth is permanently and unwillingly contorted into a smile, a smile that I long to turn into a grimace. A mere shake of his hand completely turns my world upside down. Literally. And I am forced to continue smiling, to his sheer delight and entertainment. I don't want to be stuck here forever in misery, fear and captivity. I long to escape this prison, to break free from the confines of my very creation, but I am destined forevermore to be stuck within this hell. I am destined forevermore to outwardly smile, forevermore to inwardly weep. To struggle alone. Forevermore.

Licenses for immigrants
Our opinion: As public and political momentum build for immigration reform, it's time for a legislative solution on driver's licenses for undocumented immigrants. Perhaps it was too soon after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, when people were extraordinarily sensitive about homeland security, to talk about driver's licenses for undocumented immigrants. Clearly, the heavy-handedness of a self-declared […]
