The purpose of this website in its simplest terms is to CHANGE THE WAY WE TREAT EACH OTHER. It is my belief that the only way to accomplish this is to create a world where MOST people are happy. We currently live in a society that rewards and glorifies deceptive and manipulative behavior. It is no secret that blood and loyalty is rewarded with the best jobs and by extension the best lives in this society. This creates an environment where everyone is looking out for number one. It is my belief that the only way to accomplish a world where MOST are happy is by taking the decision making power away from the men whom inherited it from a time of inequality and give it back to the people. The only fair way to do this is by collecting the ideas from the people then having the people vote on which ideas they like best.
The true purpose of this site begins and ends with these simple sentiments.
It is just a pleasant side effect that all of the issues effecting people today would be resolved if we are able to rise to the occasion. What this site aims to accomplish is far greater then changing the government to be a democracy and it's far greater then fixing the problems in the community. I know this process will accomplish this outcome. I believe that a true democracy, and the process of getting there, would result in a live and let live society where everyone's lifestyles and choices were accepted and supported. I foresee the bonds made through coming together and uniting against a system that cannot handle the responsibility of fixing the issues it creates will be the catalyst to organically ending judgment. If people have their issues fixed in their personal lives they will be generally happier and not feel the need to express such negative emotions. Couple that with the bonds that will be created between cultures, neighborhoods, and lifestyles by the process you took to get you there. This site is purposefully set up to give you what you want if you can put in the effort to understand and care for others. It is easy to get behind an idea that resolves your issue that you see others supporting, but can you get behind solutions that resolve other issues that you feel are not relevant to you? The site can be built, events can be thrown, a process can be outlined, but it all means nothing if you do not participate.
The function of this website is to collect ideas people have to any problem facing the world, our nation, our communities, and ourselves. Give everyone a stage. All issues any individual can think of that is affecting them, their friends, or their loved ones can be spoken to this community then all ideas to resolve those issues anyone can conceive of will be heard. We are more than capable of saying what our issues are ourselves, discussing ideas to resolve those issues, than deciding for ourselves what the solutions should be. There just has not been a forum where people can come together in order to accomplish this, until now. As long as this decision making power lies in the hands of a few men those men will be either appointed or corrupted. This concepts time is long overdue. With the technology we have available today and all the amazing things people are capable of doing with it, it makes absolutely no sense that a democratic society is not run this way.
Each of the four links below (Personal, Community, National, Global) unlocks a slue of issues that are in dire need of some answers. To get started just click on the category you are interested in and find the issue that is relevant to you. If you do not see it listed add it on! This websites potential is limitless. After you find the issue you care about, check out the ideas posted to resolve it. If you do not see an idea you believe in add your own! Completely for the people by the people.
Ideas For Solutions is yours to do with it what you will. This site can only be as effective as your participation makes it. YOU ARE THE ANSWER!
I believe this world was once a paradise, it can be again. This is more then a website. We are a community.
EQUALITY For Every Race, Sex, Culture, & Class
This is the list of issues currently under the national section of this website. Although when these issues are laid out like this they seem overwhelming, they are actually all easy fixes, if the priority lay with the best interest of people and not with something else. The intention is not to belittle them, but to express the displeasure felt with the fact that they remain unresolved. People obviously care about these problems. The resources, technology, and compassion exist to fix them, all of them. The problem is not every one cares about all of them. They pick and choose which are important or unimportant, relevant or not relevant based on their walk of life. They are allowed to remain unresolved because someone who has huge issues with the school system does not care about homelessness. Someone who is passionate about resolving homelessness is not passionate about ending war. Someone who desperately wants world peace does not care about the environment. People pick and choose which problems are important or unimportant, or which one is the most urgent. They are all urgent. They are all causing people pain.
So the question becomes what is the common ground? If you walked into a room full of people who care about these issues and could ask one question that everyone would raise their hand and say yes to what would it be? "Are you unhappy with the way things are?" Every hand would go up. So that's the perfect place to start. We all have things that are affecting us that could be easily resolved if we could determine the answer and get a number behind it. Yes they are all seperate issues that affect all of us in separate ways but the common ground is that people want to be happier. Everybody wants to know "how do we get to that better world, what's the first step?" It's finding common ground with others whom want a better world as well. Do you want something better? Do you think this can be better? Are you unhappy with the way things are? Raise your hand. Light a candle and put it outside your door (metaphorically.) If you think we're not being the best community we can be, if you think we're not being the best nation we can be, if you don't think your being the best version of you, you can be, raise your hand! Let's start from there and build on that.
We can no longer allow this method of divide and conquer to have success if we aim to ever resolve any of these issues. As long as we don't care about things that are not on our own doorstep we will continue to marginalize ourselves. When you marginalize you become extremely easy to ignore. What does it matter how we got here? What does it matter who is right and who is wrong? What does it matter what a person believes? What does it matter how you view them? As long as they are not causing you harm let them be happy. Support them. When you judge someone else it is not a reflection of them, it is a reflection of you. Focus on something better. Also, when you allow someone to throw you off your path to happiness that is also a reflection of you and not the person that you feel is affecting you. They are only exposing your own insecurities. Only you can overcome them. We are the only thing standing in the way of having whatever we want. Our own judgment. Fight for everyone. To love someone is to support them in what is important to them from their perspective. It is not reflecting upon them what you believe should be important to them or enforcing your own perspective and values. This is where relationships, families, friendships, communities, and nations tend to break down. Over a lack of respect of perspective. No one holds the one true perspective. If we can trust each other, respect culture and point of views, stop judging each other and reflecting our ideals on one another, find common ground with others who share our vision, we can have our utopia. We could have it all. We could have whatever we want. All of our needs meet. All of our issues resolved.
Despite our differences we are all just people, who have the same hopes and dreams. To enjoy life as we see fit, to be accepted, to live without persecution, to have equal opportunity, to be happy.
When I created this site and started on my mission, my motivation stemmed from seeing how much the people around me were suffering. How they were struggling with life. Struggling to make rent, struggling to have enough food to eat, struggling to find a job, struggling to keep a job, struggling with bosses, struggling with co-workers, struggling with family, struggling in relationships, struggling with persecution based on who they are and what makes them happy. I knew it was not random. Although it had been suggested to me time and again that it was just human nature and that these divides would always exist, I didn't believe it. I knew there was a source. So I spent several years of my life going into communities and absorbing their culture. What is important to people from their perspective, what makes them happy, what their hopes are, what their dreams are, how they communicate, what makes them unhappy, why they judge, how that judgment comes out. I ultimately identified judgment as the source of pain on this planet. Although the responsibility of ending judgment ultimately falls on us as a people, world leadership does not help the cause of ending it. The politicians, religious leaders, news broadcasters, television networks, heads of corporations all promote judgment as accepted human nature and encourage lifestyles that perpetuate judgment. They say that it is a part of us that can never change. They are lying. They know it has been conditioned over generations, they know how to use their resources to stop it yet they choose not to. Notice even the religious leaders refuse to put their differences aside and set an example by practicing what they preach and come together in front of our communities to talk about setting aside the need to be right and making the priority changing how people treat each other. They instead break their own codes and offer up judgment when they specifically preach that it is only for god to judge. This website is entirely geared towards ending judgment.
By appealing to what's important to people from their perspective and presenting you with a process where you can have whatever you want, all your issues resolved only if you are willing to participate in it, interact with others, and find a common ground, I know it will change the way people treat each other. If you participate in this process it is %100 percent inevitable.
You will end up breaking down walls even if that is not your intention. If you use this site or walk into the idea center thinking "I'm just going to get what I want out of this and I'm not going to change my mind about how I view people," you're wrong. By sharing a common space with other people who are fighting to have their issues resolved as well you will end up interacting with each other and sharing stories. Let's say you have a neighbor that you do not get along with, or let's say you disapprove of gay people, or you disapprove of Muslims but when you log onto the site or you come into the center it turns out that you both have a sick relative that cannot afford their treatment. All of a sudden you have this common ground and you share your stories as you work towards a solution to your common problem. Before you know it you care about this person. All that judgment just melts away. All of a sudden you understand each other. Why the Muslim religion is important to this person. How being gay is simply a sexual orientation. All of a sudden the stigma melts away and the stereotype you despised becomes a person with a face, with feelings, with goals, hopes, dreams, and a desire to be happy. All of a sudden you're not so different. Or let's say you have a close co-worker or a relative whom you see is using the site or the center and they are there for an issue that you never really understood or thought twice about. Now all of a sudden, because you care about that person you care about that issue. Or let's say you are coming to the center to enjoy many of our exciting features like our hobby link, or our monthly block party. If you end up playing chess together, or enjoying the same type of music, or even simply if your kids hit it off, you end up starting a dialogue. That's all I can really do, create scenarios to get people talking. Everyone always says they want a better world, they want their problems to be resolved but they don't know what to do. They don't know what that first step should be. Well mystery revealed! You start a dialogue with people who want a better world as well. Step two: you find common ground! Step three: develop a bond from that common ground! Step four: come up with a singular platform that encompasses multiple ideas to resolve all the issues! Step five: make that idea a reality! Remember that even if you do not care for yourself , there are always your loved ones. They will eventually be in a position where they want something (a job, an education, an opportunity), from someone who does not understand who they are.

gutter install - spike or hidden hangers???
I have recently received two estimates for gutter installation. I live in Florida, so no need to worry about snow/ice, but have plenty of rain. Company A uses hidden hangers with a 3 year craftsman/10 year product warranty. Company B uses spikes and has a 1 year craftsman/20 year product warranty. Both companies are using 6" seamless .027 gauge aluminum. According to Company B, they have found that over time, the spikes have a better hold (less sag) than the hidden hangers. They have been in business for 21 years. My initial impression was that they must be confident in using spikes as they provide a better warranty than Company A.
Thoughts on using hidden hangers vs. spikes and vice versa? Any experience with hidden hangers failing over time? Is the advantage of hidden hangers only aesthetics?
(I can sacrifice the look of spikes if it means a longer lasting product with no sagging).
Thank you in advance for your responses!
Thanks for responding. The craftsman warranty covers the installation. Good point - more things to go wrong with installation than with the product itself.
I wonder which warranty sagging would be covered under? Is sagging due to inferior hangers (product) or how they were installed (craftsman).
I understand that that gutters should be anchored no more than 2 feet apart. My fascia board is 1x6 lumber - is this a sufficient substrate? Or should the gutters be anchored where the rafter tails meet the backside of the fascia?
Thanks again for your responses.
I have over-sized, heavy-gauge, galvanized gutters that are held in place with hidden hangers; there is no sagging. The hidden hangers are easier to remove if you ever have to do any maintenance as they are typically screwed in, rather than being pounded in.
I lived in Fl also and found that I had to keep tapping the spikes back in all the time. When I replaced a gutter I asked for the hanger type but what I did not like is they cut notches in the drip edge that is on the edge of the roof and I thought that looked awful.The hangers are more secure but make sure they do not notch out the drip edge
These are also available at some of the big box stores.
Other colors also.

Truly you've brought to life the spirit of te Dinosaur Kingdom. Until I listened to this, I never realized how much the Doughnut Island theme sound like music fromMr. Rogers. Also never realized how much the Forrest of Illusions sound like Charlie Brown.
This piece is truly great. You have mastered the essence of Mario World. I only have one complaint. The theme from Bowser's Land doesn't translate to the piano all too well.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
not bad
could you also make the normal mario theme song?

Aulani Named Worlds Best Hotel For Families In The U.S.
Hotel & Resort
Airlines & Airports | U.S. Department of Transportation | Mimi Kmet | August 26, 2013
The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) has released a new guidance document for travel agencies that operate Internet flight-search tools that addresses how agencies should disclose the carriers they do not market in their search results, according to ASTA.
DOT Ruling Is Music To Their EarsAirlines & Airports
Delta Hit With DOT Code-Share ComplaintAirlines & Airports
ASTA Lauds DOT Consumer Protection RulesHost Agency & Consortia
DOT: Optional Airline Fees Should Be Disclosed UpfrontAirlines & Airports
The document states that the DOT will consider it an unfair practice for a travel agent to simply report that "no flight exists that matches" the consumer's criteria, when in reality the flight does exist, but the agency does not offer it. There might be carriers whose services were not searched by the agent's search engine but that might have flights that match the criteria, ASTA explained. While travel agents are not required to include flights from all airlines in search processes, consumers may be misled by the simple "no flights exist" message, when there such flights are available, according to the DOT.
Among the search results language that the DOT will consider unfair or deceptive if an airline is not being marketed by a travel agent but still offers a flight matching the consumer's search criteria are: "no flights are available," "no nonstop flights are available," "no flights match your search criteria," and "no results were found."
"A ticket agent could lawfully use such language only when no airline -- including those not covered by the online search -- offers a flight matching a consumer's criteria," the DOT said. DOT has provided a 90-day window, starting Aug. 19, for travel agencies with search engines to comply with the guidance, according to ASTA.

Tina Smith, Robyn Sprenger Join MGM Resorts Global Sales Team

LAS VEGAS—MGM Resorts International has added Tina Smith and Robyn Sprenger as directors of global sales for the company. Smith and Sprenger oversee sales efforts and account management for the Northeast region for all MGM Resorts destinations in Las Vegas, Biloxi and Tunica, MS, and Detroit.
MGM Resorts destinations include Bellagio, ARIA, Vdara, MGM Grand, The Signature at MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, The Mirage, Monte Carlo, New York-New York, Luxor and Excalibur in Las Vegas; Beau Rivage and Gold Strike in Mississippi; and MGM Grand Detroit.
Smith handles Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, West Virginia and Rhode Island while Sprenger is responsible for New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.
"Adding global sales resources to such a critical group market is important for MGM Resorts to ensure an even more personalized service experience for our customers," said Mike Dominguez, SVP of sales for MGM Resorts International.
Smith, based out of the MGM Resorts branch office in Paramus, NJ, brings more than 20 years of hotel and convention sales experience to her new role.

Technology used to be considered impersonal. You know, the idea of the "robotic mind," no human interaction. But, the reality is technology is actually very personal and becoming more so by the day. Devices are so in sync with their users, they've become the personal secretaries to the masses. This is even more true when talking connected wearables.

After selling the Derby in Los Feliz, nightlife impresario Tony Gower hoped to cash out of L.A. for good. He moved to Hawaii with visions of running a little tiki bar and relaxing on the beach.
That was before he learned that island bars are typically grandfathered to family members. Rather than own one, the Brit imbibed at multiple hangouts until the locals had had enough of him.
Midway through a 200-day bender in Waikiki, Gower earned himself the dubious nickname: "Go Home Tony."
"I realized I needed to come back to L.A. when I woke up one afternoon on the beach, and children were dancing around me making fun of me," he says. "I crawled into a bathroom and realized that half of my face and body was red and the other half white."
So he headed back to the mainland and got back in the saddle. His latest venture, Bordello, is a departure from the neo-swing vibe Gower created with his ex-wife, Tammi, at the Derby, known as the birthplace of Royal Crown Revue and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.
In a downtown space that according to legend was once a bordello, chandeliers glint from nearly every spot on the ceiling and dancers perform burlesque routines on an ornately detailed stage worthy of a Baz Luhrmann production. The place feels like a miniature red-light district, even if it's not breaking any laws.
"The club is stunning," says Greg MacAvoy, an Irish musician from the band Sally's Gap. "I knew Tony when he first came to L.A., and to see what he's accomplished blows me away."
Nanette Chavez was a regular at Little Pedro's, the neighborhood bar east of Little Tokyo that used to occupy the Bordello space. "When my daughter was sick, we held a benefit there. The people were so warm, like a family."
She said she was skeptical when she found out the place was changing hands. But now, like many former Little Pedro's customers, she's bowled over by Bordello, which opened late last year.
"When I first walked up to the entrance, I saw all the candles outside and thought, 'Hmm, that gives it a real sultry vibe,' " Chavez says. "When we walked through that door, our mouths were completely dropped. The entire club is a piece of art."
Not surprisingly, it's co-owned by three pros: Gower, whose legacy in Hollywood as a post-modern Rudolph Valentino is already cemented; Elizabeth Peterson, who owns an urban planning company that counts Andre Balazs, Sean MacPherson and Cedd Moses among its clients; and celebrity designer Dana Hollister of Odalisque, who works with such artists as Tim Burton and Madonna and who restored the Silver Lake estate, the Paramour, to its former glory.
It's Hollister's design that really has people wowed.
"All I could think when I saw the stage was Moulin Rouge," Chavez says.
Lounge cat Joey Altruda functions as Bordello's director of entertainment, morphing nearly every night into one incarnation or another. Sometimes, he's fronting a striptease jazz combo to prepare the crowd for a burlesque show. Other nights, he's hosting a set of Afro-Cuban beats or jamming with his deep dub band, Crucial Riddims. For the Friday night "Macabaret," he dresses up like a character out of the '60s ghoulish show "Dark Shadows."
"It's a haven for people who love actual A-plus music," says Altruda, who can also be found DJing there. "You're not gonna find this range at any other club in L.A. From punk, Latin, Afro, Brazilian, jazz, ska, American — all in a very sexy setting."
The vibe is meant to hark back to the turn of the century, when, Gower says, the building was a five-story bordello. "The first floor, where the club is, is where people use to meet, then they'd head upstairs to have trysts," Gower says.
Gower believes that history may be causing guests to lose their heads slightly.
"I've found a few folks in flagrante delicto tucked away in booth areas," he says. "Must be the ghosts encouraging them."
Chandeliers hang throughout the bar area and entrance; dozens more lighting up the dance floor and stage area. As Altruda plays stand-up bass and warms up the audience, one slinky dancer after another hits the stage to perform an old school burlesque routine. The acts are as innocent as a strip bar is dirty, and it's a perfect fit for the room, with its erotic-themed cues.
As different as Bordello is from Gower's last venture, there's little doubt that the new club pays homage to the Derby. Its opening night in December was celebrated with a performance by the one and only former Derby house band, the Royal Crown Revue.
"It felt good to be playing in that room," says Eddie Nichols, the Royal Crown Revue's frontman. "It captures the spirit of the Derby from its heyday but in an entirely fresh setting. The room sounds great, and I see a lot of the same faces from the Derby."
So Angelenos have reason to be thankful that "Go Home Tony" heeded the advice of the Hawaiian locals. He's still one of the club scene's legendary wild men — rather than hanging from his own chandeliers, he can be found swinging from a church bell gong across the street when the spirit moves him.
According to Gower, his team is just getting started. Next up is the Bridge Tavern downtown, set to open in mid-February.
Already up and running is Royal Claytons, an upscale restaurant on Industrial Street that's been well-received by the neighborhood.
"We really believe in downtown," Gower says. "I've been around long enough to have seen it thrive multiple times. We're just glad to be a part of its new renaissance."

MSI's Military Class II Components Debut
MSI's Military Class II Components Debut
Once Again Setting the Standard for Top Quality & Stability
This year MSI, the globally renowned mainboard and graphics card manufacturer, earned praise from both the media and consumers with the introduction of its Military Class Components, a symbol of extreme build quality, into its mainboard product line. After being crowned numerous awards, MSI continues to innovate and now provide consumers with the advanced second generation of Military Class Components. Military Class II Components will be available on the next-gen products, including those featuring the upcoming Intel 6 series chipset.
Hi-c CAP with Tantalum Core
In keeping with the first generation, Military Class II components still features the revolutionary Hi-c capacitor - often used in aerospace and military products - for the CPU PWM area to meet the highest power requirements. Utilizing the rare metal tantalum for its core, this capacitor can not only endure extremely high and low working temperatures, but its all-electric design also provide more than 8 times the lifespan of ordinary solid capacitors. Whether overclocking or in high load use, it offers the ultimate in stability and performance.
Super Ferrite Choke - Dynamic Switching for Max Efficiency
The newest critical component is the Super Ferrite Choke (SFC) for even greater power supply to your mainboard. Compared to traditional chokes, they offer tremendous advances in power and temperature resistance. In heavy load testing, they offer over 30% more capacity compared to ordinary chokes. In addition, it's worth noting that the advanced SFC high efficiency chokes are capable of automatically switching between high performance and high efficiency modes based on real-time load conditions, providing unmatched assistance in overclocking and overall system stability.
Solid CAP - Continued Reliability
Military Class II also returns the solid capacitors to round out the package. With their aluminum core design, these solid capacitors have been a staple in high end mainboard designs and provide lower Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) as well as 10 year lifespan. These capacitors have unmatched stability by providing more efficient use of power and a lower production of unwanted heat, while avoiding the potential risk of accidental fluid leaks associated with older electrolytic capacitors.

Looking for US Fleet: Mature, Helpful, Medium RP, Doesn't Allow Silly Player Names.
If anyone fits that bill, please let me know!
I'm a married, 30 year old east coaster with plenty of MMO experience who also ran my own hundred person guild back in SWG.
I like to help others out more than I like to be helped out really, and I do want the fleet to have some RP aspect to it, though not necessarily constant or intensive (though I wouldn't rule such a fleet out either as I do have an old school, Role Play Intensive MUD background).
The Rogue Specter Fleet is a newly formed RP group. Not all of our members are roleplayers, but we do encourage roleplaying, especially in /s and we do look for people who are mature and can write with decent grammar.

DEFENSE MINISTER Ehud Barak 370.
(photo credit:REUTERS)
At no stage did Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu say he was prepared to
withdraw from the Golan Heights, Defense Minister Ehud Barak said
Saturday in an interview with Channel Two's "Meet The Press" program. Barak's comments came in response to a Yediot Ahronot report a day earlier,
that stated that the prime minister had agreed in principle to withdraw
from the Golan as part of a peace agreement with Syria in negotiations
that took place in the fall of 2010. "Neither Netanyahu nor I
said we were prepared to do this," Barak asserted, explaining that no
concrete negotiations had been held. Barak said that the United States
had explored the possibility of whether Syria would cut ties with
Hezbollah and Iran: "If this would have been possible it would have been
worth considering many options." However, he emphasized, "we didn't get
to this stage at all," and added, "we don't give presents for free." Retorting to accusations made earlier by Vice Premier Moshe Ya'alon
that Barak put political interests ahead of national considerations,
the defense minister attributed Ya'alon's "pathetic" comments to
political "pandering" ahead of the Likud party's primaries.Barak
asserted that he strives for decisive action against the Iranian
nuclear threat in cooperation with the US, and will continue to do so.
He stressed that there was no difference between his and Netanyahu's
positions, except that he places a lot of importance on conducting
discussions on the issue "behind closed doors." He added that following
Netanyahu's speech at the United Nations General Assembly, the prime
minister had "returned" to holding discussions in closed forums. Turning
to elections, Barak confidently predicted that his party, Independence,
would pass the electoral threshold. "I'm not running for prime
minister, but I hope that we will have a significant presence in the
next Knesset," he said. He questioned the wisdom of former prime minister
Ehud Olmert running for Knesset, opining that "the norm of the rule of
law is under threat," in reference to corruption charges against
Olmert. "I don't want to say that he shouldn't run, but my stance is

7 Best Sports Bras
The bounce stops here: Get a better workout with the right bra for your body
Workout Bras that Fit and Flatter
1 / 9
A good sports bra is like an old friend—holds you close, offers comfort when you need it, and gives unconditional support. Which are the best? To find out, we gave 20 testers of different sizes—from a 32A to a 40DD and a 34FF—the newest styles to test-drive in their yoga workout, at boot camp, and while walking. Take their word for it, or try this dressing-room test: Jump up and down, swing your arms, and touch your toes. Pass on any that dig, pinch, or rub.

Well, since we're now 99.9% certain that we'll be in the new place in October, can I offer to host....SNIZtoberfest? Haul-in, haul-out on grains.
Hopefully we'll even sell our old place by then. And Rdwj will be giving out blow-jobs due to not just losing the Cubs / Sox rivalry, but because they also went into LAST F'N PLACE!!! WHICH I PREDICT!!!
Don't worry - Dude might be fluffing for you after the Cubs DOMINATE the Brew-Crew.
Don't count on the Cubs until after the All-Star break! And beware the Goat!
Cheese, you make it sound like such a great time...brewing...getting blown by another guy...wait. What?
Psss... it just sounds like a regular ol' weekend at Chez Cheese.
I'm in for the brewing - but will probably pass on the free bj's.
Don't get too high on your Cubbies yet - they're not even 500, have a garbage pen and are HISTORIC chokers. Besides, they're still 8 games out of first and have 5 teams in front of them in the WC.
...so, we'll BOTH be watching October ball without our team. But, I WILL be watching it while drinking plenty of HB after winning FBB and can always watch my 2005 World Series box set. How you doin in FBB?
I'd be up for an October brew! But I'll pass on any mano-a-mano BJs, thanks.
What makes a hot dog at Wrigley Field different from any other hot dog in the league? They never serve Wrigley dogs in October.
08 WOrld Champs, BEYOTCH!!! And don't you forget it!
I'm getting my '08 World Champs stickers ready to go.

support is a really boring position, whenever I play it I ward as good as I can while still trying to afford items and then get blamed when the other team gets baron even other I ward it and then they oracle it.
hello im mid/sup player
i hate fking bot lane premade its forces me to play mid if i wont get mid i dont like playing top jungle where ill go ? duo premade needs removed
Well... I enjoy support, I've been picking up more supports as often as I can afford them lol but yea its not my main but I do find it fun to feed the ADC and be a part of helping the team in that way. I actually started playing support to really avoid those pre game arguments lol I do like all other roles too, except jungle... I CAN but not prefer it lol
Nunu Support or AFK
Junior Member
I am sorry to hear that OP
I love support, I main Lux and people often tell me I am bad at team pick for choosing lux support (A snare, a slow and a bubble? how does that not scream support?) then I get into game and the only time I lose are when A) my ADC is hitting like a pillow or B) im facing a good Blitzcrank
IMO anyone who doesn't like to support isn't doin it right. I love seeing 20+ assists at the end of a game.
Solari Brigadier
As someone who despises the amount of anger in player games, I play pretty much exclusively bots (unless I'm duo'ing with my friend). Also, I usually immediately call "Support plz" and throw up my Iron Solari Leona.
I'm one! I'm almost always calling support in champ select. If someone already call first or they call later, I try to be a nice guy and pick another role. I love to make the team happy. However even to this day, I cannot jungle for the life of me.
Edit; I'll be playing Nami 24/7 when she comes out. WHY ISN'T SHE OUT ALREADY? ROIT PLS STAHP HUTTIN ME.

Help! Hardiplank installation problems
I recently hired a gold-certified Hardiplank installer to replace the siding on my house. They removed my old siding last week and began installing the new siding yesterday. There have been several problems already. What is the best way to get this stuff installed correctly?
A partial list of problems follows:
1) Siding is face nailed, not blind nailed as specified in contract
2) Nails are deeply overdriven throughout
3) Some pieces of siding and trim are cracked, chipped, or otherwise damaged
4) Gaps around pipes/cables are very large and poorly done
5) Guest bathroom window is no longer flush with wall
6) Too many nails throughout (on siding as well as trim)
7) Trim improperly installed along bottom of wall in one place (should not need trim here)
8) Many nails are not driven perpendicular; some are hammered flat sideways on the siding
9) Many areas of the house are still exposed to weather with no house wrap (since last week)
- Trim leaves holes along interface between siding and masonry. Also not flush with garage doors.
1. Stop work immediately.
2. Contact Hardie Customer Service to get their input: Is there really such a thing as a "gold-certified" installer (I didn't find any reference to this on their web site)? Does Hardie care that someone is doing a crappy job with their product? What standards should you expect?
3. Talk with the installer to determine what's going on, and be firm about what you expect and why you're dissatisfied. Then decide if you're willing to have the installer continue.
4. Talk with a lawyer...you may need one to get out of the contract and collect damages.
It's hard to tell what is going on here, but it sounds like you have some incompetent people on this job. Time to get tough....
Don't forget to start taking pictures to document everything you've mentioned above, and be sure to:
(1) get the name & phone # of everybody you speak to at your contractor & Hardie
(2) Take notes, write them up ASAP after each conversation, and mail a copy or fax to the party you've spoken to (the last only if you think that's appropriate). But definitely start a folder with written documention of every contact, verbal and written, in person or remote, regarding this matter.
Do NOT depend on your memory for dates, exact phrases, etc. You need documentation for the facts to back up your complaint, as necessary.
Have you thought about sitting down with the installer and reviewing the installation instructions? They are online, btw.
Following the installation manual is the best way to get it installed correctly.
There are other things that pro's just know.
For example:
Nails must be flush with siding panel.
Build out the bath/guest room window so it's not recessed.
Build out around garage door trim so it's not recessed.
Gap at masonry and siding will be caulked with an elastomeric caulk.
Your installer may need the "How To Video"
I am building a house and I was not there for the install. Big mistake. Nails over driven, cracked boards, trim not shimmed and the list goes on.
Here's the link. You need to read it. Also, read the warranty.
Here is a link that might be useful: James Hardiplank
I too just had Hardiplank installed on my house. I hired a craftsman and had him read the installation manual online. He has done a wonderful job. Everything is lined up perfectly. I had a JH VP visit me recently and he commented that the installation was really really good. I think that finding a craftsman is the way. JH does certify installers but that does not mean that they will measure 2 times before they cut or draw a line around the house so that everytime they turn a corner the plank level is absolutely matched. BTW I also read the installation manual so that I could make sure my installer was on track. My installer had missed the part about flashing the top of the windows and when I gently pointed him back to the website he added the flashing. Do not let them install trim along the bottom of anything. That trim is not designed for nor will it hold up to bottom mounting.
Make sure you have the contractors home address or a legitimate business address. If he is a 1-800 type contractor, you will never be able to serve him legal notice for small claims court or regular court depending on damages. If he uses a PO box, he is a shady character and has these problems often.

Police say a man shot a woman and four children at a home in the Southeast Texas city of Bay City before
apparently turning the gun on himself.
Police Lt. Andrew Lewis said the woman and children were taken to Matagorda Regional Hospital in Bay City, where the woman was in surgery Wednesday night.
The children were transferred to Houston hospitals.
Their conditions are unknown.
Lewis says police went to the house in an eastern Bay City neighborhood about 3:15 p.m. Wednesday to find the gunman dead and the woman and children wounded.
Lewis said the man had an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.
No identities have been released, and the relationships of the six to one another are unclear.
Bay City is 65 miles southwest of Houston.
