Getting over the old betrayals
Q: My wife and I are approaching our 20th anniversary. We have a beautiful 5-year old daughter. It hasn't been a smooth 20 years. There has been a lot of admitted deceit by my wife, and most of it over finances. Since I took control, we are back into a good financial position and on the surface, we are moving ahead as one.
Three years ago, I found out about a non-physical emotional infidelity she had. She swears up and down it was just a friendship. It would have become physical, I believe, over time, but I do believe it didn't get there. We got past it, but it was rough. I felt very betrayed.
I recently found out about another relationship that started probably eight years ago and lasted for about two. I am less confident that this one was purely emotional, but so far, that is all she is telling me. She admits to wandering, wanting out, as we were not in a good place at the time. I can understand the want to get out. I can't fathom following through with it, but I do at least understand.
I am really torn on how to move ahead. On the surface, it's old news and doesn't affect where we are today. But, I can't get this out of my mind. I pointedly asked her if she could guarantee this will never happen again. She said she cannot. She doesn't want it to. She isn't trying to. But, she can't guarantee it.
Maybe I'm a fool, but I still want to stay with her. I'm at a total loss on how to proceed.
– Trying, New Hampshire
A: I don't have any easy solutions for you, T. And I empathize; it's incredibly confusing to find out about a cheat that happened years ago. Your wife has already processed it. You're dealing with it like it's a fresh betrayal.
I'm going to suggest therapy (the "duh" answer) so you can talk this out over time, but I'm also going to advise you to focus on enjoying each other. After a betrayal, it's tempting to obsess over the possibility that something could go wrong again. Instead of thinking about all the negative what-ifs, I want you to find out whether the two of you are still capable of making good memories. Do you enjoy each other's company? Do you laugh? Can you be romantic? Because if you can -- if she's still with you because she's chosen you – you should be able to make new, good memories that minimize some of the bad ones.
I want you to figure out whether you're moving ahead as one because you can pull it off or because you really want to. And again, you do that by wallowing in the positive, not the negative. It'll give you better context.
Readers? Can he move on from the cheats? Should he? Did he tell us enough about why she wants to stay with him? How do you get over something that happened years ago? Will he even be capable of making new, positive memories? Discuss.

Drawn from the best known pieces from the classical canon, Broadway, uplifting sacred music and pop songs, Jackie's astoundingly beautiful young voice soars again at the magnificent Longwood Gardens Open Air Theatre. Longwood Gardens is over 1,000 acres of gardens, woodlands and meadows in Pennsylvania's Brandywine Creek Valley, Jackie's home state. This is the first time Longwood Gardens has ever permitted a television special to be taped on site and, in addition to her on-stage performance, Jackie will be performing at various stunning locations throughout the Gardens such as the Chimes Tower and the spectacular Main Fountain. Jackie will be joined by Cheyenne Jackson who will both host and perform with Jackie.

America's Generations with Chuck UnderwoodThe Boomers: Forever Young | Sunday, 9 p.m.
They came of age during a golden age for kids and molded generational Core Values of idealism, optimism, patriotism, empowerment, engagement, and uncommon work ethic. The older or "First-Wave" Boomers launched 7 major cultural revolutions. Slaughtered the institution of marriage with their skyrocketing divorce rate; ushered in an era of Permissive Parenting, which had consequences for their GenX kids; but if they struggled with marriage and parenthood, they became and remain The Golden Generation In The American Workplace. To the astonishment of most, their leadership of America has only just begun; Chuck will explain. Their future: they will dramatically rewrite what it is like to live life in one's 70s, 90s, and yes, 110s. Just as they have famously insisted upon controlling their own lives, so too will they insisted upon controlling their own deaths, and they will force America to provide the painless, nonviolent pill or cocktail that will one day permit them to end their own lives when they wish.

Rob Calhoun - Radio Production Supervisor
When Did You Start at WEIU? September 2004 (part-time); October 2006 (full-time)
What Does WEIU Mean to You? WEIU is unique because it offers a variety of things that are different from other stations. We have great local programming that features people in our community. I think community involvement is very important. Our commitment to the local programming is vital to our continued success.
Favorite Show on WEIU-TV: EIU Panther sports broadcasts. Is it wrong to say that since I am on the EIU women's basketball broadcasts? I also enjoy News Watch.
What have you learned while working at WEIU? That we have some of the greatest and hardest working students around. Their dedication to the station astounds me every day I come to work. They are very passionate about what they do and it shows in their work.
Why should someone become a member of WEIU? It is very important to support your local station. With state and federal funding being cut, it becomes more difficult to provide programming. With the help of our members, we can continue to grow and give them great, family-friendly choices.

We love to hear from you!
I support WEIU because I know that at any time, day or night we can tune in and we can count on good, quality entertainment and good wholesome programming made available to us.

text: A doctor tests blood samples at a hospital laboratory in Lusaka, Zambia. OUR GOAL: to significantly reduce the incidence of HIV infection and extend the lives of people living with HIV. The Challenge In This Page The Challenge The Opportunity Our Strategy Areas of Focus At A Glance up More than 33 million people are currently living with HIV, and more than 30 million have died from HIV-related complications. New HIV infections have fallen by more than 20 percent in the past decade, but each year the newly infected outnumber those who gain access to treatment by two to one. Only about half of those who need treatment for HIV are currently receiving it. The foundation is working to make lasting reductions in HIV infections and extend the lives of people living with HIV by supporting research and development into vaccines and anti-retroviral–based prevention products, promoting broader-scale use of proven prevention methods, expanding service delivery, and improving diagnostic tools and treatments. Our HIV strategy, updated in 2011, is led by Trevor Mundel, interim director, and is part of the foundation's Global Health Division. down More than 33 million people around the world are currently living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and more than 30 million people have died from HIV-related complications since the earliest cases were detected in the 1980s. While huge progress has been made in increasing access to HIV treatment in the past decade and new HIV infections have substantially declined in some regions, the pandemic continues to outpace efforts to control it. The number of newly infected people each year outnumbers those who gain access to treatment by two to one. Defeating HIV will require a comprehensive response, and effective programs must be scaled up to treat people already infected and prevent new infections. New tools are also needed to defeat the pandemic, and investment in research and development for new products remains essential. The Opportunity Share Share up Section down In the past decade, efforts led by developing countries; the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (Global Fund); the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR); civil society organizations; and communities affected by HIV have made significant progress in the fight against HIV. The global incidence of HIV has declined by 20 percent since its peak in the mid-1990s, and nearly half of those who could benefit from anti-retroviral therapy, which suppresses the virus, are receiving treatment. Global partners can continue to accelerate progress by sustaining their investments to expand access to HIV treatment and prevention, enhancing the impact of every dollar invested in HIV by improving the efficiency and effectiveness of HIV programs, and supporting research into new and better prevention and treatment methods. Our Strategy Share Share up Section down HIV is one of the leading priorities of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The goal of our program is to support efforts to reduce the global incidence of HIV significantly and sustainably, and to help people infected with HIV lead long, healthy, and productive lives. We focus our efforts in the poorest hyper-endemic countries of Sub-Saharan Africa, where we believe our resources can have the greatest impact. To date, the foundation has committed more than US$2.5 billion in HIV grants to organizations around the world. We have also committed more than US$1.4 billion to the Global Fund. Beyond our direct investments in HIV, we advocate for sustained and increased funding for HIV service delivery. A medical field worker explaining a clinical trial for microbicides to residents outside Durban, South Africa. While the foundation's resources are sizable, they represent only a small portion of worldwide funding for HIV, most of which comes from donor governments and from developing countries themselves. To ensure that our investments complement other funding streams, we concentrate our resources in areas where existing funds are scarce, our support can have potentially catalytic impact, and we are better positioned than others to assume risks. Our strategy reflects where we believe the foundation is best positioned—among a broad spectrum of actors—to help turn the tide on HIV. Areas of Focus Share Share up Section down We invest in six areas to advance the development and delivery of new HIV prevention methods while improving the efficiency and effectiveness of existing prevention and treatment efforts. We work with an array of partners, including government agencies in donor countries and developing countries, multilateral organizations, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), academic institutions, community organizations, and private industry. Go To>> Vaccine Research and Development Anti-Retroviral Prevention Methods Efficient and Effective Service Delivery Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision Improved Diagnostic Methods Demonstrating the Scalability of HIV Programs Vaccine Research and Development Our largest investment is in efforts to discover and develop an HIV vaccine. Exciting new discoveries and a robust pipeline of promising vaccine concepts have created optimism that a safe and effective vaccine will emerge that can dramatically reduce global HIV incidence. We support the global HIV vaccine pipeline at multiple levels. At the early discovery phase, we invest in an array of vaccine concepts through the foundation's Grand Challenges Explorations competition. We also provide funding to move novel product concepts toward human clinical trials, including replicating vectors, vaccines to induce mucosal immunity, passive immunization, and the development of immunogens to elicit protective antibodies. And we invest in late-stage clinical trials, such as the Pox-Protein Public Private Partnership (P5), to advance promising candidates toward licensure. To strengthen and accelerate the HIV vaccine field broadly, we invest in research consortia as well as product development and manufacturing platforms. Anti-Retroviral Prevention Methods The development of new prevention methods is essential to reducing HIV transmission. We support efforts to develop, evaluate, and introduce innovative approaches to protecting populations who are at risk of HIV infection. HIV-related information is displayed in a waiting area outside a rural clinic in Kivumu, Rwanda. These approaches include systemic and topical anti-retroviral compounds and long-acting products such as injections and vaginal rings, which are less dependent on daily user adherence. We are also interested in dual protection methods that combine microbicides with effective contraception. We also invest in efforts to evaluate the best approaches to enhancing the secondary prevention potential of HIV treatment (i.e., treatment as prevention). Our goal is to help national governments and global partners understand the most efficient and effective approaches to integrating treatment as prevention into broader prevention programs that combine primary preventive interventions such as condoms, male circumcision, and targeted behavioral interventions. Efficient and Effective Service Delivery The growth in international funding for HIV has slowed in recent years, but the demand for HIV services has not. About half of all people in need of treatment for HIV do not receive it, and more than 2 million people are newly infected each year. To continue expanding quality treatment and prevention, we must ensure that every investment yields maximum results. To that end, we invest in five interrelated areas to help increase access to HIV services: Reducing the cost of essential anti-retroviral treatments by developing better approaches to process chemistry, dose optimization, and manufacturing Rigorously evaluating combinations of preventive interventions to determine the most effective combined strategies Collaborating with major HIV financing partners to build their capacity to invest in the most effective and cost-effective programs Conducting modeling studies to help countries allocate their HIV resources more effectively Assessing HIV program management strategies to improve prevention and treatment programs Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision Research indicates that widespread male circumcision could play a major role in limiting the spread of HIV in the parts of Sub-Saharan Africa where HIV is highly prevalent. However, insufficient supply and weak demand for male circumcision has limited the preventive impact of this intervention. The foundation invests in male circumcision efforts at two levels: It supports planning and coordination to spur circumcision efforts in 14 target African countries, and it supports the development and introduction of devices that can facilitate nonsurgical, low-cost, and low-tech circumcision. Improved Diagnostic Methods The development of rapid, accurate, and low-cost diagnostic tools that can be used at points of care in low-resource settings can greatly enhance the impact of HIV treatment and prevention programs. Devices that deliver rapid HIV diagnosis can help HIV-positive people seek more timely care and treatment. Rapid and accurate tests for CD4 and viral load can help improve patient care. We also support programs to improve the measurement of HIV incidence. Demonstrating the Scalability of HIV Programs The foundation has supported national efforts to design and deliver HIV services to high-risk populations in India, China, Myanmar, and Botswana, with the goal of demonstrating the feasibility of delivering effective services on a broad scale. For the past decade, we have worked with national AIDS coordinating organizations, local governments, and community-based NGOs in those four countries to scale up approaches to delivering essential HIV services. India's Avahan program has demonstrated notable success, with independent evaluations estimating that it has helped prevent more than 100,000 new HIV infections in India. We are working to help transition these programs so they can be administered by national governments and local partners in a sustainable fashion.

Game 45: Nats at Giants
May 20, 2013, 10:50 PM EDT
Associated Press
Beautiful AT&T Park hosts the Nationals for the next three days.
What's the best cure for a struggling lineup? How about the return of its best hitter from injury? Bryce Harper is back tonight for the Nationals, having missed the last two games in San Diego over the weekend with a bruised knee (from his collision with the wall in L.A. one week ago). His presence in the No. 3 spot really does make that starting lineup look a lot more formidable, especially with Ryan Zimmerman and Adam LaRoche each on a tear at the plate right now.
The Nationals might need an offensive explosion tonight, because they're sending to the mound someone who wasn't in their original Opening Day rotation for the first time this season. With Ross Detwiler hampered by a slight oblique strain, Zach Duke gets the nod for his first MLB start since 2011. The veteran lefty has been erratic out of the bullpen so far, but his background is as a starter, so perhaps he'll be more comfortable taking the ball for the first inning tonight.
Duke will be working with Jhonatan Solano, getting a rare start behind the plate. Struggling Ryan Vogelsong is on the mound for the defending World Series champion Giants, who are struggling themselves at the moment and desperately need to get themselves back on track.
As you know, I'm not on this West Coast trip, but I'll be staying up late and watching along with the rest of you. Enjoy the game and the conversation…

Seriously…has there ever been another team in MLB history that has a mop up guy who throws 100 MPH???
- Scott Margenau - May 21, 2013 at 4:43 AM
do1teach1 said…It feels like we are 1,000 runs behind in this game, with two outs and Espi up and an 0-2 count, facing Sandy Koufax.May 21, 2013 12:28 AMFunniest thing I've read in a long time! U just gotta drink at this point.
- Teresa - May 21, 2013 at 4:44 AM
I don't care what anyone says about it being early, this team is a mere shadow of last year's team. They have no fight, no heart, no mojo and apparently no big hitters. I saw them lose in April 9-0 and was worried then but what I saw. They were just going through the motions. Something has drastically changed in the clubhouse and I think a huge piece of the puzzle is the loss of Mike Morse. Not only was he our biggest bat, but he was a great teammate and clubhouse presence. Rizzo's moves to get Span and resign ALR left Mike with no home. Thanks, Rizzo, for trading away our biggest power hitter for virtually nothing. This team could sorely use his big bat and his big heart right about now.
- Manassas Nats' Fan - May 21, 2013 at 4:44 AM
Sawed off a bat and knocks in 2 runs.When will the Nats decide to start hitting like this?
- do1teach1 - May 21, 2013 at 4:45 AM
FP was saying earlier maybe the Giants have lost intensity, after winning the WS two of the last three years.Tell me now which of these teams has no intensity?
- Gonat - May 21, 2013 at 4:46 AM
MNF, good things happen when you make contact.
- Manassas Nats' Fan - May 21, 2013 at 4:46 AM
Teresa hit the problem, showing no heart, once behind they do nothing to change the direction of the game.If they score first they are fine.
- Gonat - May 21, 2013 at 4:47 AM
Henry's ERA jumps to 3.95 Just when some were writing that he had some of the best stats in the bullpen.First of all, that's ridiculous because he gets the low stress relief appearances.The guy should be DFA'd with Duke.
- Depot Master - May 21, 2013 at 4:49 AM
Teresa, I really understand what you are talking about. However as much as I miss Mike Morse I also think the absence of Jayson Werth is having a similar impact.I think the team is exhibiting good effort in the field, but when it comes to mindset, they're on auto-pilot. Almost like zombies. Davey doesn't seem to be putting a whole lot of thought or ingenuity into his choices, and the result is they are a lot less fun to watch because it looks like they aren't having a lot of fun themselves.Time to inject this team with some life in the clubhouse. You may not even need to shake up the roster very much. Just find someone out there who has a spark plug and replace a goon or two!

FP just said what Stras is thinking in the dugout about tomorrow: "Go ahead boys (speaking to the Giants), go ahead and get all the hits you want tonight, because I'll be out there tomorrow."What Stras is really thinking: "I will lose a one-hitter tomorrow night, 1-0, on a Zimmerman throwing error."

Everyone's missing Mikey Mo. In the post-game show, Davey was asked who he'd like to see back in a Nats uniform this year.His reply: "Riggleman."
- David Proctor - May 21, 2013 at 5:26 AM
"Ryan Mattheus has a broken right hand. Fernando Abad and Yunesky Maya getting called up. Eury Perez heading out."The news just keeps getting better.
- Teresa - May 21, 2013 at 5:42 AM
do1teach1 – Remember it was Davey who was literally begging ALR to re-sign with the Nats, knowing full well that it would mean the loss of Mike Morse. My God, Davey humiliated himself with his comments to ALR during the off-season. So, I have absolutely ZERO sympathy for Davey right now. He as much as threw Mike Morse under the bus with the comments he made. Now, we're all having to live with the consequences of the Nats foolish off-season decisions that led to Morse's trade for which we got virtually NOTHING of real value in return. Absolutely mind-boggling.
- EmDash - May 21, 2013 at 6:12 AM
Ryan Mattheus broke his hand hitting his locker after Sunday's game….ffs.Maya is presumably temporary because of the strain on Duke and Stammen as long men, I'd guess, and will maybe be replaced once Detwiler returns to the rotation (oh please let that go well) with another outfielder. Maybe Eury again, if Werth isn't ready by the time Det is.The overuse of Henry the last few days lead me to suspect they're looking to create a reason to DL him – he's thrown 68 pitches in 2 days, which is crazy. They may bring someone up like Eric Davis after that if so.As for Morse: the Nats got a good value for him. They went for pitching and defense, but anticipated everyone would hit roughly to their career average (better for Harper, perhaps) and they'd end up with at least a league-average offense, which would be fine with great pitching. That hasn't happened, but that doesn't mean the moves were necessarily the worst idea. Every decision is a gamble, even the decision to keep things the same.
- Teresa - May 21, 2013 at 6:16 AM
It's not just the loss of his power and bat that are key, I think. He was a huge part of last year's overall team chemistry. You cannot put a price tag on that. This year's team seems to lack heart, fight and mojo. They seem to have zero confidence in coming from behind. Not saying that Morse would cure everything that ails this team, but his loss is much, much more than just the loss of our best power hitter.
- EmDash - May 21, 2013 at 6:19 AM
Chemistry is pretty largely about winning, I think. If they were winning as much as last year, we'd be hearing all about their heart and mojo.
- EmDash - May 21, 2013 at 6:21 AM
What's amazing about that game is that a Giants player got hit by a pitch and Henry *didn't* throw it.
- Secret wasian man - May 21, 2013 at 7:30 AM
3 hits? And 8 runs given up. I guess it's all Danny's fault. This season is over folks. There is no fix for what ails this team. Mick were are you?
- mick - May 21, 2013 at 10:55 AM
You ask where I was Wasian man… I watched the whole game and after the Nats QUIT 3-0, I took a deep breath, followed Coach SJM's advice and said to myself, "I'm going to go take a nap, when I wake up, if the money is on the table, I know I have a partner, if not, I know I don't" oops, no I said I will not post until tomorrow.So, its Tuesday….out scored 21-4 in back to back games. Of which one of the teams, sucks (Padres). It is not the fact Nats lost to Giants, its the fact that they showed NO HEART or GUTS in trying to score even 1 freakin run!! Duke SUCKS, and the fact he is on this roster makes me question Devey's sanity. I hate to post this, but folks, last season, the NATS never lost 2 back to back games by these kinda scores. This season is over, i will enjoy watching young talent, which I hope may be the few pieces the team needs in 2014. I think this club will lose 85 games this seasonshame on every player last night for NO EFFORT

voracious?patches he's been viciously working on
Phoronix: PRIME DRI2 Offloading Pulled Into X.Org Server
The X.Org Server 1.13 release for this September just got a lot more exciting now that David Airlie's patch-set for providing initial PRIME DRI2 off-loading and other modern GPU functionality was merged this weekend...
voracious?patches he's been viciously working on
KUDOS! We all love you
I'm not completely sure of the immediate implications : I know that this means one GPU can render, while the other displays. I know this works wih displaylink multiseat devices. (as seen in the video). Does this also mean that dualGPU laptops (non-muxed) will work with X server 1.13? Maybe someone could sum it up, I got a bit lost among all the articles.
So will this ongoing GPU work eventually help Nvidia Optimus users?
Gaming News - www.gamingonlinux.com
In this case, you'd be using a dedicated Nvidia/AMD/etc GPU to render, and then that GPU would forward the resulting buffer to the built-in Intel/whatever IGP for ?composition? and display. As long as the drivers for both video devices support sharing buffers in the correct manner, this can happen (I'm assuming that this probably requires GEM/TTM to work). I'm guessing that there's still user-configuration required to determine which cards to use when... A demo video from a while back hinted at environment variable changes to determine which card does the rendering work, but eventually this could probably be automated in some manner.
Unforunately, or fortunately, I don't have any hardware of my own to test this on, although maybe it's possible to get this working using the HD4200 IGP in my 785G motherboard for display along with my Radeon 6850 acting as the renderer/offload target.
This is fantastic news!I believe that the answer to this question is: Yes, dual-GPU laptops without a MUX should be usable with X server 1.13... probably with a bit of config work
As I understand it, this framework is very generic... This means that the offloading can be done in any way you want, no? (meaning IGP renders, 6850 displays; or the other way around).Unforunately, or fortunately, I don't have any hardware of my own to test this on, although maybe it's possible to get this working using the HD4200 IGP in my 785G motherboard for display along with my Radeon 6850 acting as the renderer/offload target.
This is what I love about linux/opensource : it usually takes longer, but when something is implemented, it feels as though no corners were cut (meaning it works in a very generic way, leaving a lot of options)
Now I guess we need to wait for DEs to implement the new RandR protocol to make it user-friendly...
Another dumb question: I have seen SLI/Crossfire mentioned along with this work, I don't really see how it could help there.
What about GPU switching, GPU offloading, multi-GPU, etc for Wayland?

Myth War 2 Online
Myth War 2 Online Overview
Myth War 2 Online is the updated version of Myth War Online. The two games are essentially the same except for a graphic update and a remake of the beginning area. I've heard some complaints that Myth War 2 is even more cash shop dependent than the original, with things like global chat now require cash shop purchases. Myth War 2 has four races that also act as classes. The only character customization available is gender selection, luckily each gender of a race has a different special skill. The four races are:
Mage - Mages have low HP but possess powerful spells that deal heavy damage. The most important stat for a mage is Intelligence. Male Mages have the 'fire' spell while female Mages use 'ice.'
Human - Humans have the highest HP total and have PvP focused skills. Male Humans can use 'frailty' which lowers their targets mana. Female Humans posses the 'poison' skill that lowers target's max hp.
Borg - Borg have the highest strength but the lowest speed. Male Borg can use 'drain' which lowers opponent's mana and HP. Female Borg posses 'resistance upgrade' which buffs their physical and magic resistance.
Centaur - Centaurs are the healers of Myth War 2 and have the highest agility. The male Centaur's special skill is 'multishot' while the female's is 'shadow.'

Myth War 2 Feature Online Video
Myth War 2 Online Full Review
By Erhan Altay
Myth War 2 is technically a new game but is so similar to the original that I look at more as an expansion or a content upgrade. The same four races are available, the combat , skills, stats, and pet systems are identical. The graphics have been upgraded but still won't win the game any awards. The one significant improvement, at least in my book, has been the simplifying of the tutorial process. In the original game, getting started meant talking to many more NPCs and even taking a multiple choice quiz! One area that has not been improved is the game's horrible translations so players should be ready to decipher Engrish.
Race or Class?
Myth War 2 Online is published by IGG, the company behind other 2D MMORPGs including Angels Online, Tales of Pirates, Wonderland and the upcoming GodsWar Online. These sorts of games usually have poor character customization but Myth War 2 disappoints with absolutely no appearance customization whatsoever. Each of the four races have a gender option for a total of 8 different avatars. I'm not sure if something was lost in translation but it seems the developers were confused when coming up with their races; Human, Mage, Borg, and Centaur. The only original race out of those four is the Borg. Centaurs look like fair haired humans (elves?) but are certainly not half horse. I'm not quite sure how Mage even made it as a race but let's not dwell too much on cosmetics. The only thing that saves character creation from being a complete let down is that gender actually makes a difference in game. Each gender has a special skill not available to the opposite. For example, a male Mage has the fire spell while female Mages have ice. I know it's not much but it makes a difference in a game that's this thin on content.
From the Top
Those of you familiar with the original Myth War Online will notice a large change right from the start. The whole flying castle of a tutorial area has been removed in favor of a simpler village near the shore. Message prompts inform the player which NPCs to talk to, all of which are located nearby. Coordinate locations are given to make finding things even easier and the game map (opened by hitting tab) is neat and organized. After completing the first few talk quests, you'll receive skill points which you can use to increase your starting skills. Each skill takes an increasing number of points to raise based on its level. My suggestion for beginners is to use all available points to pump a single offensive skill. There are only 4 stats in Myth War 2; Stamina, Intelligence, Strength and Agility. Each level, players receive 4 points to distribute among these stats. What each stat does should be obvious to most RPG veterans; Stamina increases max hp, intelligence increases magic damage and max mana, strength increases physical damage and agility increases speed. Following the tutorial quests further will introduce players to one of Myth War's most important features – pets. There are numerous pets available and they level up, gain stats and skills just like your main character. Movement is standard point and click and it isn't until you get into battles that things get exciting.
Wait Your Turn!
Combat in Myth War 2 Online is turn based but the game won't wait for you to make your move! A small yellow bar which fills at a rate determined by your agility indicates your character is ready to make a move. Players can perform melee attacks, use skills, items, block or chose to flee the battle on their turn. In addition to your character, you pet also participates in battles and makes a great partner. Which pets you use and how you grow them will depend on your class and play style. A mage will want a pet with high defense and pumped up stamina while a Human or Borg may need a more damage oriented pet. The monsters you'll be fighting during the early levels won't pose much of a challenge and even dieing isn't punished heavily. Upon death, players are taken to the nearest town with full health. Myth War 2 starts things out with a bang and gives players a triple experience buff which lasts for about an hour. If you put this time to good use, you should have no trouble flying through the initial levels.
It's a Small World After All
Myth War's main attractions has always been its unique combat and pet system. When I first played Myth War several years ago it was the only free to play game of its kind available (at least in the USA.) Fast forward to 2009 and the turn based MMORPG market isn't so small anymore. Huge 3D games like Atlantica Online look and play like main stream RPGS. At least half a dozen other 2D pet based MMORPGs have been released recently including Stonage 2, Elf Online and Fairyland Online to name a few. With a total of 3 towns, 4 bosses and a list of quests that looks short by comparison, Myth War 2 Online just doesn't have the content to compete with its rivals.
Final Verdict: Fair
Myth War has an interesting combat system but even with the recent upgrade to Myth War 2, the game looks and feels too old to compete in today's market. With only 4 races, Myth War is too short on content and character customization to earn a higher rating.

Sign up to receive future issues of the Reviewers' Update
The Feedback Programme monitors Elsevier's performance from the perspective of reviewers on Elsevier journals. We'll ask you about various aspects of Elsevier Editorial System and other aspects of reviewing via an online survey. Areas of interaction and support are measured and reported regularly. Elsevier's performance is bench-marked against that of other publishers.
Using reviewers' feedback
Elsevier takes reviewers' opinions seriously and the results and comments from this program are feed back into the company to help improve the reviewing process in terms of technology, sharing of information with reviewers, pre-screening of papers to make sure they are appropriate and of at least a minimum standard of English and minimizing the administrative work reviewers are faced with so they can focus on the task of reviewing.
Example: 90% of reviewers said they would like to be able to see the final decision and other reviewers' comments on a paper, so we added this functionality to Elsevier Editorial System. Editors are now able to switch on this functionality should they choose to do so.
Reviewer workshops
Reviewer Workshops are held during a conference and presented in part by an Elsevier representative, and in part by a journal editor. They generally take two hours.
Topics covered:
- The importance of the reviewer in the publishing process
- Fundamentals of reviewing
- EES & the reviewer
- Reviewing a scientific paper.
Online workshops are also covered by our Publishing Connect webcasts. Check out the 'How to review a manuscript' series
Reviewer recognition
Reviewer recognition
Elsevier would like to thank reviewers for their contribution, without which it would be impossible to maintain the high standards of peer-reviewed journals.

Why review?
Reviewers play an essential part in science and in scholarly publishing. For more than 300 years, scientists and scholars have relied upon peer review to validate research, engage other specialists in the support of submitted work, and increase networking possibilities within specific specialist communities.
Although in recent years the peer review process has attracted some criticism, it remains the only widely accepted method for research validation and a cornerstone of the scientific publishing process.
Elsevier, like most scientific publishing companies, relies on effective peer review processes to uphold not only the quality and validity of individual articles, but also the overall integrity of the journals we publish.
By assessing the quality and validity of another author's work, within the same area of expertise, reviewers:
- Uphold the integrity of the journal by identifying invalid research, as well as helping to maintain the quality standards of the journal
- Fulfill a sense of duty to the scientific community and their own area of concentration
- Establish relationships with reputable journals and may also increase their opportunities to be invited to join an Editorial Board
Reciprocate the same courtesy shown to them when other reviewers review their own authored works
- Establish their expertise in and knowledge of the field
- Increase their reputation and exposure in the field
- Stay up to date and "in the loop" with respect to their discipline's literature
- Have access to the very latest research and discoveries in the field prior to colleagues
- Learn about their discipline as well as exercise the critical thinking skills essential to the practice of science.

How to become a reviewer?
It's not really a question of becoming a reviewer. Most people are invited by the Editor of a journal to conduct a review. An Editor may approach you because you are a specialist in a certain field or research topic.
Still, to be a good reviewer requires a certain skillset. Watch our "How to Review a Manuscript" webcast series to see what it takes. If you think you would be a good reviewer for a specific journal you can always contact the journal's Editor.
Locate the journal you need to review for
You are notified by e-mail when an Editor or Editorial Office invites you to review a submission for a journal. Once you have agreed to review, an email with further instructions will be sent to you. These emails contain the journal title as well as a weblink to the journal's Elsevier Editorial System (EES) site. Click the weblink to access the EES login page.
If you have deleted or do not have access to the review invitation email, click here for details on how to locate the journal's EES site.

Written: May 02, 2010
Last Edited: Sept. 24, 2011, for one has responsibilities to maintain the guides they write to help others. Garen has changed much over 1 year.
This guides is to help clarify Garen's abilities as well as to give advice how to use and set up the hero performance.
First, understand a hero's' role is defined by his/her abilities. Garen is hybrid tank/dps, but neither excels fully in either role. Garen's lacks crowd controls necessary to pressure enemies and save allies on the level of true tanks. Garen's damage cannot compete as true damage carries. His role is somewhere in between tank and damage. After I explain his abilities and set up, I will go more into a build that reflects his.
-This is a mostly serious guide about issues with Garen's spell mechanics, game play advice, with some attempt of humor added.
-Some information is intentionally useless.
Spells: http://www.leagueoflegends.com/champions/view/86/garen_the_might_of_demacia
This link is Garen's official web page. It contains basic information about his spells.
Perseverance - The tool top reads: "Garen will regenerate .5% of his maximum health per second after not receiving damage for 7 seconds."
Maybe you did not know:
a. This ability only activates if:
-Garen did not harm an enemy target in the last 7 seconds (this is not mentioned in the tool tip) AND
-Garen was not hurt in the last 7 seconds
-Garen is below 100% hp
b. This ability is ONLY deactivated if Garen is damaged.
c. Garen damaging to other enemies will NOT remove this effect.
d. Perseverance is spelled with the letter P.
Game Play Tips
-This passive allows Garen to bypass the need of early game regeneration items
-Hide outside enemy damage range until your health is back up if you are hurt
-This ability will not cure cancer
Decisive Strike - The tool tip reads:
"Garen gains a 15/20/25/30/35% speed boost for 2 seconds. His next attack deals 30/45/60/75/90 bonus damage and silences his target for 2.5 seconds."
Maybe you did not know:
a. 30/45/60/75/90 bonus damage AFFECTS towers.
b. 30/45/60/75/90 bonus damage CANNOT critically hit.
c. Only MOVESPEED is increased, not attack speed.
e. The movespeed buff is NOT consumed after Decisive Strike's damage/silence is used.
d. Activating this spell RESETS Garen's auto attack timer, but there is a .5 second delay before the next swing hits.
f. The on hit effect is "stored" as a buff charge for 10 seconds if you do not attack an enemy.
g. The cooldown ONLY begins after the on hit strike effect is used or wears off.
h. You cannot activate this spell while spinning.
I. Decisive Strike is effective with a heavy club as well.
-To maximize damage, activate this spell right after a auto attack swing.
-Silence heroes intelligently during team fights. Shut spell caster up, not the tank
-The speed bonus is useful for chasing and fleeing enemy heroes.
-Have at least 1 point in this spell for 2.5 second silence and the sprint.
-This ability does not work on talkative females.
Courage - The tool top reads:
Passive: Garen's armor and magic resist are permanently increased by 0.5 every time he kills an enemy unit. This bonus is maxed at 5/10/15/20/25.
Active: Garen places a defensive shield on himself for the next 3 seconds, decreasing all damage taken by 20/24/28/32/36%.
Maybe you did not know:
a. The active 35% damage reduction is subjected to diminishing returns when combined with other % damage reduction effects, such as armor and resistance.
Example: Garen has 100 armor. Garen reduces attack damage taken by 50%. Garen activates Courage. Garen reduces attack damage taken by a total of 67.5%, not 85%.
Formula: (1- Current damage reduction %) x New damage reduction % = Actual increase in damage reduction %
Math: (1 - .5) x .35 = .175
.5 is the 50% current damage reduction from armor
.35 is the new damage reduction from Courage
.175 is the actual increase in damage reduction not .35
b. Garen is not afraid of anything when this ability active.
-It is easy this ability too early or too late when under pressured. The right time is when hurt is about to start, push this.
-Have at least 1 point in this spell at level 4.
-This ability can be activate during a spin.
-This ability is not as effective as Red Bull and does not give you wings.
Judgement - The tool tip reads:
"Garen performs a dance of death with his sword, dealing damage around him for 3 seconds, and reducing the duration of slows by 50%. Garen removes any slow effects on him at the start of the dance.
Garen rapidly spins his sword around his body for 3 seconds, reducing the duration of slows by 50% and dealing 60/100/140/180/220 (+) physical damage to nearby enemies every second. Garen removes any slow effects on him when casting Judgment."
Maybe you did not know:
a. Garen has a very small collision body, you generally will not get stuck
b. The base damage CANNOT critically hit. Only the bonus attack damage portion (from items) can.
c. Attack damage/critical strike %/critical strike damage bonus stats directly improve this spell's damage, but it ONLY affects 33% attack damage portion, not the bonus damage.
d. Each "tick" damage critical hits are calculated INDEPENDENTLY for each target hit.
e. This spell's damage is REDUCED by enemy armor.
f. ACTIVATING this ability REMOVES slows (Nunu's snowball), but NOT immobilization (Ammu's ultimate)
g. Do not use while intoxicated.
Note - in regards to "c", a sword animation appears over a target when Garen critically hits with Judgement.
-This spell's slow immunity is useful for escaping slow effects, such Mundo's cleavers and Nunu's ult
-Focus on attack damage and critical strike to improve your Judgement's damage. Attack speed is not as helpful.
-Combine this spell with Decisive strike's moves speed bonus for extra fast spinning Garen
-Infinity Edge is the best item to improve this spell's damage, number wise.
-Courage can be activated during this spell.
-Chuck Norris taught Garen this move.
Demacian Justicee - The tool tip reads:
"Garen calls upon the might of Demacia to attempt to execute an enemy champion, dealing 175/350/525 magic damage plus 1 damage for every 3.5/3/2.5 health they are missing."
Maybe you did not know:
a. This use to say the ultimate does magic damage before it was clarified. Thank you Riot.
-Do not worry about being accused of kill steals, do not give enemies a chance. Kill him, it is your job.
-The magic sword animation is not as cool as Frostmourne or Cloud's Buster sword. Where do these huge swords keep coming from...
Spell Leveling Priority
1st - Demacian Justice
2nd - Judgement
3rd - Courage, only upgrade this when armor and resistance passive is max out for that particular rank
4th - Decisive strike
-Basically this means, level the ultimate whenever its available, level Judgement as your main non ultimate ability, and alternate between Courage and Decisive strike.
-Remember to have at least 1 point in Courage, usually when Garen is level 3 or 4.
Utility: 9/0/21
-Pick up summoner ability enhancement that you use, health regeneration to compliment passive, movespeed and all CD reduction effects
-Pick up exhaust if you use it, 2% critical strike for your spin, CD reduction, and 15% spell penetration for your ultimate
Red: Armor Penetration
Yellow: Health Regeneration per Level
Blue: Magic Defense per level reduction
Quintessence: Movement speed
-Math wise, Armor Penetration improves Garen's damage more than any other rune can, it affect all his not ultimate damage abilties.
-Extra health regeneration combos well with Garen's regeneration passive
-Garen tends to attract enemy spells, MD runes will give you much milage
-Move speed is ESSENTIAL. A slow Garen is useless when he spins outside enemy range.
Extra - This is a good guide on armor penetration:
Summoner Abilities
These two gets you the most kills:
Ignite - Compliments Garen's role to finish heroes and get kills. Highly recommended
Ghost - Combos well Garen's abilities. Highly recommended.
These perform decently, but I consider them situational replacements for the top.
Flash - Flash is good, but the mobility from Ghost is far superior in most situations. Ignite tends to land more kills, but flash does allows Garen to escape easier.
Exhaust - Keeps enemies in range, but sometimes redundant if they cannot escape anyways. The disable makes this situationally better against certain enemy compositions, like heavy physical teams.
Cleanse - Very crowd control heavy enemy teams can make this ability useful.
Omnislash - Summons Strife to unleash his limit break on to enemies.
Generally all heroes follow this loose template.
1. Starter Item
2. Boots of Choice
3. Core Item
4. Core Item
5. Core Item
6. Situational Item
Starter Items is something cheap and meant for early game, such as potions, Doran gear, and Heart of Gold.
Core Items usually are expensive items that greatly enhance your character's role, such as Warmog for a tank or Death Cap for a caster.
Situational Items are item dependent on the flow of game, such as Banshee Veil against caster heavy team.
Garen's items must allow him to survive in the front lines as well as do moderate damage. Pure tank Garen add little to team fights, pure damage Garen die quickly when focused. Garen is both.
Recommended Items
Starter Item (2 best choice)
Start with Boots and 3 health potion is the best aggressive opening. Opponents without boots cannot escape silence and spin and 600 hp of potion are the best assets for aggressive Garen play. Once you learn Garen's limits, this build is the best in exploiting enemy weaknesses and getting early kills.
Doran's shield is the best defensive opening and necessary for lanes which opponents control. Don't expect too many early game kills, especially if your opponent bought boots first, your spin will never keep up.
Boots (3 best choices)
Aggressive - 15% CD reduction (more spins, silence and shields during team fights) or +3 speed (great for chasing, recommended if you do not have a grasp feel of Garen's abilities)
Defensive - 35% time reduction of enemy disables (you know you need this when you are rooted over and over)
1. Sunfire Cape
2. Frozen Mallet
3. Force of Nature
This core emphasis on enhancing Garen's utility.
Sunfire Cape allows Garen to open with damage, health, and armor, all at once. It fits with Garen's role to been in the midst of team fights and allows Garen to push and farm lanes better than any other item choice in the game.
Frozen Mallet following the cape gives a very large spike in Garen's hp, but the consistent 40% movespeed slow allows you to put pressure in team fights. It will allow you to soft peel enemies off friends and slow down focused targets. The +20 damage is an extra.
Force of Nature grants a very large spike in Garen's health regeneration, speed and magic defense, which rounds off Garen's defense and utility.
Situational (you have 2 item choices left and if you reach this far in the game, you know what you need)
Note: The second item of each category is much more expensive than the first.
Against Everything
Guardian Angel - Auto self revive and bonus armor and magic defense.
Warmog - You have so many HP bars that it is more of a HP line.
Against Physical
Thorn Mail - Punishes physical carries who shoot you and highest armor bonus in the game. May serious harm a carry.
Raduin's Omen - Smart carries do not shoot you till your whole team is dead. The active effect reduces their damage and movespeed regardless of who they attack. May disable a whole team.
Against Magic
Sash - Controllable defense against disable with magic damage reduction. May bail you out of jail.
Banshee Veil - Uncontrollable defense against spells, with slight hp and magic defense boost. Generally blocks trivial spells.
Screw That I Need Damage
Atma's Impaler - Much cheaper than the below, gives armor, but less damage
Infinity Edge - Most damage increase to Garen.
Last edit: Removed unnecessary and updated details due to patch changes and revised item build.
Totally agree, very nice guide man. You really made me think about that armor pen, and the critical strike.
Senior Member
I'm curious about some of you "facts" and where you obtained this information.
-Armor Pen does not improve Judgment, you say. I don't believe this. Other abilities that deal physical damage (Parrrley, Mystic Shot, etc) are affected by Armor and thus Armor Pen. A good way to test this is against neutral creeps in a practice game, particularly the lizard due to its high HP. Buy a Pickaxe, calculate the damage the skill should do, use it on the Lizard, mark the damage actually dealt. Sell the Pickaxe for a Brutalizer (same damage, only with added Armor Pen) and do it again, see if the damage changes (make sure to account for any leveling of your damage or skill rank here)
-Demacian Justice is not affected by Armor/MR? Again, I'm not sure what to think about this. The description does not specify whether it is magic or physical damage, but when in doubt abilities are Magical unless they involve attack damage somehow. If it was meant to ignore defenses, it'd specify True damage.
-Reductions "diminishing". Not so much a disagreement but just a clarification. All damage reduction stacks multiplicatively, so nothing new here.
-Regarding Judgment, do you know the formula by which Crit Chance and Damage improve the ability's damage? Is every attacked increased by a percentage based on your crit chance? Or does each individual hit have a chance to critically hit for extra damage? (Is this why there are sometimes swords displayed over targets' heads?)
Junior Member
I'm curious as to the items. Usually I stack a little more survivability earlier, and end up going Inf. Edge etc.. later on. Your damage on Garen is exceptional regardless of items lower level, but higher up, the items are very much required. Something such as follows:
Damage Dealer
1. Ninja Tabi/Mercury Treads
2. Phage
3. Ghostblade
4. Infinity Edge
5. [Upgrade Phage]--> Frozen Mallet
6. Phantom Dancer
It will probably die out when the heat on Garen goes away, but your constantly focused down. I have over 75 games with Garen, very much mostly wins, and I've tried just about everthing. :]
I am so tired of everyone rushing Ghostblade in all my games.
Yes it is a nice item for carries. No it is not the new IE for carries.
I used to rush the ghostblade but now I have went back to getting IE befoer the ghostblade and have been doing much better.
Personally i don't find anything beats Spirit visage > Merc treads > Randuins Omen > Frozen mallet > Atma's Impaler > Insert last item you find useful but will never attain in any normal game here

ECM New Series 2124
Order CD
Thomas Zehetmairs manually overwhelming and thought-provoking ECM recording of the complete sonatas for unaccompanied violin by Eugène Ysaÿe released in 2004 to great critical acclaim offered ample proof that alleged virtuoso pyrotechnics can be surprinsingly multi-faceted and complex when approached by a musician with a rare awareness of stylistic layers and expressive traditions. His (long deleted) Teldec version of the Capricci dating from the early nineties quickly won the status of a new benchmark recording. In 2007 he went to the Austrian monastery of St. Gerold to record a second even more ambitious interpretation. In an interview with English journalist Ivan Hewett Zehetmair recently explained his ever-growing interest in this particular repertoire: "Every violinist grows up with these pieces, because they are such fantastic technical studies. Paganini sometimes had these showman's tricks, like playing on only one or two strings. But you know, all the great musicians who heard him, like Schumann, took him totally seriously. These Caprices aren't just studies, or showpieces. They're improvised character pieces, so full of poetry and fantasy."

I've been in the greater boston area since fall of 1996. I've never lived in Boston. Closest I have ever lived to the city was 16 miles. The Boston area is a large metro population, with it's spoke and hub, the suburbs spread far and wide. However when ever in a distant city, I always orient people to where I'm from as it's location relative to Boston. I'll always be a boston sports fan, even though I'm mostly a homer and a fair weather fan. While it has it's issues, too numerous to name, it also has it's reasons to be Proud. I like it inspire of it's flaws. I claim it as my own.
My fondest memories of the city, are of the 2004 red sox victory parade. You can see from these photos, how crazy the city was. The streets are filled with people on a cold rainy late fall day. The spirit of the fans was electric having won the world series after such a drought.
This photo was taken during the parade, on Boylston St. street just feet away from where both of the bombs went off this past Monday.
I can't help but think, with both Tasha and I (sometimes) aspiring runners, that some day in the future it could be one of us standing near the finish waiting for a loved one. As a matter of fact Tasha is signed up for her first 26.2 this fall in DC, at the http://www.marinemarathon.com/
This just hits a little too close to home.
I will try not to hold april 15 2013 in my mind as how I think of Boston, and the boston marathon (other than how amazing the first responders were in saving lives.) I prefer remember October 30th 2004 as how I see the city.
I think I need to go watch watch We still believe.


text: Texans Defensive Starters Category Football Houston Texans Photo Galleries Sports Texans Defense (credit: Bob Levey/Getty Images) Considering all the changes and additions to the Texans on the defensive side, this is how we project the starting defense would look if they started playing now. DE Antonio Smith (credit: Bob Levey/Getty Images) Smith will lineup on the left side of the three-man front. NT Shaun Cody (credit: Bob Levey/Getty Images) Right now, it looks like Cody will play the nose position of the three-man front. DE J.J. Watt (credit: Chris Trotman/Getty Images) The rookie, a first-round draft pick out of Wisconsin, is expected to start right away and will line up on the left side, opposite of Antonio Smith. OLB Mario Williams (credit: Bob Levey/Getty Images) Defensive coordinator Wade Phillips is moving Mario from defensive end to outside linebacker. He'll line up on the right side. LB DeMeco Ryans (credit: Andy Lyons/Getty Images) Ryans will return to captain the Texans defense and will play on the inside. LB Brian Cushing (credit: Bob Levey/Getty Images) Cushing will play in the middle, to the right of DeMeco Ryans. OLB Connor Barwin (credit: Bob Levey/Getty Images) We think Barwin will play opposite of Mario Williams as an outside linebacker. CB Kareem Jackson (credit: Chris Graythen/Getty Images) Jackson, whose rookie struggles were painful to watch, is still considered a starting cornerback. CB Jason Allen (credit: Justin Edmonds/Getty Images) The veteran cornerback will be a starter until one of the younger cornerbacks emerges to take his position. S Troy Nolan (credit: Bob Levey/Getty Images) Nolan will start at safety. S Glover Quin (credit: Bob Levey/Getty Images) Wade Phillips is moving Quin from cornerback to safety, where he will start. CB Brandon Harris (credit: Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images) The rookie, a second-round pick out of Miami, will play when the defense is in nickel formation.
