That actually sounds like the Eve I played against yesterday. Spent the entire game harassing me in all chat because I bought Oracle's, and then every time I killed them they called me bad lol. He'd consistently go head first into team fights while I had Oracle's and die pretty much. They lost. | |
I agree, these types of players are annoying. Probably also yelling that the team isn't helping even though they are running into losing situations. | |
They also left me alone to lane against an Annie and Mundo as Udyr from like level 4, then they complained when I got Tibberstunned and eaten by Mundo. --- username: CARTOTBOTOM I seriously doubt she's an actress. She had hairy legs. ~SBHS Brooklyn 2K3 | |
It always seems like the worst players are the ones who talk the most trash, blaming their team for doing poorly. The OP FotM often attracts these players, though Jax seems to be the worst in recent memory. I had a game last night with a Jax who routinely tried to 5v1 the enemy team. We were constantly fighting 4v5 team fights, because Jax would either be off farming, or would be dead from jumping in while no one was there. As the game dragged on, he started mocking my friend, who was playing AP Amumu (note that Jax and our Udyr were both built like tanks, so we certainly didn't need another tank). Soraka joined in on the mocking, insulting AP Amumu's build with statements like "tank fail". They both tried to pin the loss on AP Amumu, despite having the aforementioned Jax, and an Udyr who was like, 1-8-3. Of course, neither of them offered anything beyond insults, even when my friend asked for specifics and tried to explain AP Amumu's potential. Udyr was silent the entire time. --- The sole purpose of this space is to make my post look longer. | |
What i dont like about the game. | |
i hate people who constantly yell my team is noob and only blame his team for the loss when at end game his stats are 0-8-2 | |

It's weird that RTS type gamers seem to have a higher percentage of people who flame their own teammates repeatedly during a game, when compared to FPS gamers (and I see LoL type games as an offshoot of the RTS genre). My initial assumption was that the RTS gameplay type would be less immersive and thus your emotions would be less heated as a result. FPS gamers seem very relaxed and friendly towards their teammates, win or lose, despite the fact that the game is so much more in your face with its violence. My theory is that RTS type gamers are more obessive, nerdy, and/or hardcore than FPS gamers, since FPS gaming is much more mainstream. So winning or losing is much important to RTS type gamers. |

About the Pages
Technique: Summertime Spread
Designer: Shauna Berglund-Immel
Shauna says: I love the vintage look for summertime pages. And this spread shows that you can use softer colors and vintage embellishments like silk flowers and ribbon with masculine photos. Distressing techniques like inking and sanding are a great way to emphasize the vintage feel and give a more roughed-up effect to complement the masculine photos.

- OR - Select an option belowWe-Ko-Pa's Cholla course is not for your twice-a-year golfer — it's a beast. In other words, if you're not in the fairway, you're screwed — and that's what makes it awesome. By the end of your round, you'll either swear off golf forever or think you're ready for the PGA Tour. The course has become the standard for desert golf and, in 2001, was named by Sports Illustrated as one of the 10 best new public courses in the world. The challenges of playing at one of the most difficult desert courses in the country aside, the place is gorgeous. Snaking its way through a mountainous desert landscape, Cholla provides views of the Valley that are worth the 110 strokes (and roughly 10 golf balls claimed by the desert) it will take your average golfer to complete the 7,225-yard course.
We-Ko-Pa Golf Club is a daily fee golf facility that consists of the original 18 holes, the Cholla Course designed by Scott Miller, and a second 18 holes, the Saguaro Course, designed by Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw which opened for play in 2006.

The author of The New York Timesbestseller The Stuff of Thoughtoffers a controversial history of violence. Faced with the ceaseless stream of news about war, crime, and terrorism, one could easily think we live in the most violent age ever seen. Yet as New York Times bestselling author Steven Pinker shows in this startling and engaging new work, just the opposite is true: violence has been diminishing for millennia and we may be living in the most peaceful time in our species's existence. For most of history, war, slavery, infanticide, child abuse, assassinations, pogroms, gruesome punishments, deadly quarrels, and genocide were ordinary features of life. But today, Pinker shows (with the help of more than a hundred graphs and maps) all these forms of violence have dwindled and are widely condemned. How has this happened? This groundbreaking book continues Pinker's exploration of the essence of human nature, mixing psychology and history to provide a remarkable picture of an increasingly nonviolent world. The key, he explains, is to understand our intrinsic motives- the inner demons that incline us toward violence and the better angels that steer us away-and how changing circumstances have allowed our better angels to prevail. Exploding fatalist myths about humankind's inherent violence and the curse of modernity, this ambitious and provocative book is sure to be hotly debated in living rooms and the Pentagon alike, and will challenge and change the way we think about our society.
Author Biography
Steven Pinker is one of the world's leading authorities on language and the mind. His popular and highly praised books include Words and Rules, How the Mind Works, and The Language Instinct. The recipient of several major awards for his teaching and scientific research, Pinker is Peter de Florez professor of psychology in the department of brain and cognitive sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Honoring Our AIDS History -- Without Punishing Younger Gay Men
November 23, 2013
Lesley was my closest friend to become sick in the 1980s, and he fought bravely until his death from AIDS. Today, World AIDS Day is an opportunity to remember Lesley and honor his struggle -- although I call up memories of Lesley, my first friend lost to the epidemic, nearly every day.
But there's something I will not do. I will not dig up Lesley's body and beat young gay men with his corpse. Lesley didn't perish so I could use him as a scare tactic. He wasn't a cautionary tale. He wasn't a martyr. He was a man with the same passions and faults as anyone else, and I won't use his death as a blunt instrument.
Plenty of us are more than happy to rob graves, however, in an attempt to frighten gay men into acceptable behaviors. This kind of horror-by-proxy happens all the time. Concerned but misguided gay men of a certain age hear whatever the latest HIV infection rates are, and they pull the AIDS Crisis Card.
"If their friends all died like mine did, maybe they would think twice before having sex without a condom," goes a typical remark, drenched in self pity and tenuous logic.
This statement misrepresents our lost friends and oversimplifies the state of HIV today. It projects our grief in the direction of those who bear no responsibility or resemblance to what we experienced. It subtly blames our departed friends for their mistakes, and then tries to equate them with a new generation of gay men who are much too smart to buy into it.
So frozen in time is our victimhood, it hardly allows for the facts of the here and now. Young gay men are more aware of HIV than my generation ever was. They simply relate to it differently, having come of age since the advent of successful treatments. Asking them to fear something they have literally grown to accept is as realistic as asking them to perform "duck and cover" drills in case Russia drops the bomb.
To view these young men and say, in effect, "if only you saw all the death that I saw ..." is a wishful fantasy that disturbs me on all sorts of levels, and it says far more about us than it does about them.
I understand these attitudes come from a place of complicated emotions, ranging from grief, primarily, to our own shame or guilt over dodging a bullet -- and it may come from a sincere need to share our experience with others. The punishing tone that often accompanies it, though, isn't going to win the respect or investment of younger men. It makes us as relevant as old men on the front lawn waving a rake at youngsters.
I take our community history very seriously. I've written a book about the dawn of AIDS in Hollywood, have read And the Band Played On more than once, cheered on the activists in the documentary How to Survive a Plague, and can't wait for the release of Sean Strub's upcoming AIDS memoir, Body Counts. There is enormous value in preserving our history -- and in recognizing that many of us still carry trauma born of that time.
Community advocates have stepped up work to help us process what we went through a generation ago. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a very real phenomenon for longtime survivors, and excellent community forums have been mounted to explore these areas by the Medius Working Group in New York City and the "Let's Kick (ASS) AIDS Survivor Syndrome" project in San Francisco. Hopefully, other cities and LGBT organizations will follow suit.
That important work is quite different, however, from allowing our past to blind us to the present. When we raise our finger and say in a voice filled with foreboding, "people think you only have to take a few pills and that's it," we are denying the actual experience of a lot of people with HIV. For many like me, taking a few pills a day is, in fact, the only impact HIV has on my life. Research suggests I will live a normal lifespan and am more likely to die from cigarettes than HIV. And I'm not going to deny all that in order to advance a fright-show storyline that isn't my experience.
There are young voices telling new stories, thankfully. Gay writers living with HIV such as Patrick Ingram, Josh Robbins, Tyler Curry, Aaron Laxton, Robert Breining and the irascible Josh Kruger are peering across the generational divide (I have HIV antibodies older than they are) and they seem bemused. Their blogs suggest a post-AIDS life of full engagement and purpose. I consider this progress. If their lives (and writings) don't include burying friends or serious health concerns, wasn't that our goal all along?
Nowhere has our AIDS tragedy mindset done more damage than in the rollout of the unfairly maligned pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), the prevention breakthrough that allows HIV-negative people to take anti-HIV medication to avoid infection. It is largely viewed as an alternative to condoms, which has quickly labeled HIV negative men taking PrEP as "barebacking sluts" by people coming unhinged at the very idea of unprotected sex. (Note: I remember when gay sex never involved condoms. It was glorious. I always thought getting back to a place where we had a real choice in the matter was kind of the point.)
There is something about the simplicity of PrEP (a pill a day! no condom negotiation! no guilt or judgment!) that is driving older gay men up the wall, considering their resistance to it and spurious claims of inefficacy, cost, and side effects. Tellingly, younger gay men have voiced fewer objections.
The facts are these: PrEP is at least as effective as condoms when used properly. The drug currently used for PrEP, Truvada, is well tolerated with few side effects. And despite fears and misinformation, it is being covered by insurance providers (do you know of even one claimant that has been denied?). For those without insurance, Gilead, the maker of Truvada, has a generous patient assistance program that allows you to earn a sizable income and still get the medication.
Perhaps, in the end, we are simply victims of our own success as advocates. We successfully entrenched the immediate, mortal danger of HIV, the shameless inaction of our government, and the profit-driven, opportunistic role of the pharmaceutical industry. Anything that veers from that narrative, especially for those of us who lived it, feels like betrayal. Yet here we sit, in an age that confounds so much of what we once knew to be true.
The 1980s are history. They are not a prevention strategy. The war as we once knew it to be, the one Lesley and so many others fought so valiantly, is over.
May they rest in peace.
Read Mark's blog, My Fabulous Disease.
Reader Comments:
As effective as condoms? MAYBE against HIV, but certainly NOT against antibiotic-resistant strains of Syphilis and Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, HPV, Hep A, B & C.
Are you on Gilead's payroll Mr. King? Barebacking w/o a condom is irresponsible behavior, it is now with HAART and was before we had meds, but knew if was sexually transmitted.
What you are being very good at is furthering the idea of the adult gay male as Peter Pan, don't grow up, don't take any responsibility.
BTW, least you forget, there are still people in this county who are not just simply POZ, but have AIDS. T-cells under 100, and are on 15-20 pills a day, who may find some of your comments, flip, if not completely offensive. And many of those would LOVE to have the chance to go back in time, and put on that condom.
You've written great things in the past Mark, but I just can't relate to this piece.
It just seems like you needed something to write about, came up with a premise, then build an article around it. Classic man bites dog.
Sorry, but in the world I've encountered, none of this berating of young gay men occurs.
But to use a cliche for those who live in the 24/7 AIDS world, , to a hammer, everything's a nail...
Mark King often has some very good points but why does every single post of his sound like a promotion poster for himself? He can't resist telling us what he's written, or done or been to. It's all a bit too much like self glorification and sometimes spoils the good things he has to say. Take it down a notch Mark. We know how active you are and have been during the history of HIV but sometimes you rub our noses in it.
I'll keep that in mind, Geraldine. I never want to distract from whatever point I'm trying to make.
In this case, I thought that mentioning I wrote a book about early AIDS might thwart criticism from those who might misconstrue from this essay that I don't respect our history or think we should preserve it. Mentioning the book appears to have had an unintended effect for you. Rats.
Thanks for your feedback.

LTC Orientation - What is normal?
0 Hi,
New grad here, applying for positions in LTC, getting interviews and wondering what a typical orientation looks like? How can I tell if an agency is providing a typical or adequate orientation? One place does everything but trach's and vents, the other I am not sure, as the interview is tomorrow and there isn't much info online.
Must Read Topics
0Mar 28, '11 by MouseMichelleI say give them orientation for a month if they are not experience in LTC, most people need a month, some less time. Talk to them about their comfort level, talk to the nurses who are orientating to see if they feel they are okay.

Review by
Vassago from Texas
This unit provides clean power and definitive notes in your music. It cranks out crisp sound. The downside is the constant "whir" of the built in fans. Even mounted in the trunk, under the deck lid the "whir" can be detected between tracks or low levels. Not a deal breaker just a notable caution for those that might consider mounting this unit in the passenger compartment- I wouldn't do that!! Other than this little annoyance this is a solidly built unit, limited adjust-ability. The fans will likely add to the lifespan and keep this unit operable for years. In use time, 1 month.

Nice Amp, but I almost liked the KAC 6404 Better (at this point) Hard to get the Filters etc correct. At this point, it does not have the Depth the 6404 had, and does not sound much louder

Review by
Scott from Mesa, AZ
I bought this amp to add a little bass to my basic setup. for this price level, it's hard to find a more powerful amp with a cooling fan especially important in Phoenix!
The sound is clean and there are ample controls on the unit for High pass/Low pass, volume level, crossover frequency etc. I was disappointed that it did not come with a bass knob but the head unit I purchased has easy access to sub level so it wasn't an issue. I guess most people don't run these in three channel mode as I do. Provides plenty of power for my Saturn and old ears. I recommend.

The New Division of Labor: |
ADDITIONAL REVIEWS: "Frank Levy and Richard J. Murnane have written a very readable introduction to some key issues facing US workers in an increasingly informational economy. . . . [R]eaders exploring these ideas for the first time will find this an engaging and provocative introduction to an important set of political-economic processes that continue to bring information technology and human labor together, for better or for worse."--Greg Downey, International Review of Social History ADDITIONAL ENDORSEMENTS: "A timely contribution. The New Division of Labor adds an important level of understanding to the changes we are witnessing in our labor markets. There is a message regarding the skills that are required by our economy and implications for educational reform and a message as to the political tensions that accompany this transition. The phenomenon described is of global relevance."---John Reed, Interim Chairman of the New York Stock Exchange "Levy and Murnane go beyond conventional accounts of the effect of automation on the workforce to take a comprehensive and thoughtful look at how increased use of technology is affecting the occupational distribution in the U.S., and precisely what skills are likely to be valued in tomorrow's labor markets. This should be read by all who care about the future of work in America."--Lawrence H. Summers, President, Harvard University "A fascinating, important book. Levy and Murnane tackle one of the most important questions in contemporary economics, how computers change the way work is organized and how labor markets reward skill. The answer they offer is simple and powerful."--James B. Rebitzer, Case Western Reserve University "This book, through a wealth of examples, gives the reader a concrete sense of how computers have changed the nature of the workplace."--John Bound, University of Michigan File created: 2/4/2015 | |

Bioengineers at Pratt School of Engineering in Duke University have developed a one-by-three inch chip which can make custom-made segments of DNA in two days. Production of DNA segments is currently done in two weeks, using large equipment and significant manpower. According to Jingdong Tian and colleagues, this breakthrough could have vital contributions in the production and screening of new drugs, and in gene cloning.
"Using current technology, it takes between about fifty cents to a dollar to create each base pair – using the new chip reduces costs to less than half of one cent per base pair," said Tian. "In addition, current methods create many 'mistakes' that must be accounted for," Tian continued. "The chip-based method is self-correcting, in that whenever an error in copying is detected, it is automatically fixed…The chip basically combines the three steps into one, which can be completed in less than two days, and without all the labor currently needed."

GRACE gets extension and noticed
The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission is included in a recent article on the Environment 360 Web site as one of the crucial ways scientists are keeping track of changes in the Earth's climate from space.
GRACE is a twin-satellite array that measures changes in gravity around the world. Scores of scientists have used data collected by the satellites to track changes ranging from Greenland's and Antarctica's ice sheets to the amount of water in California's aquifers.
Engineering Professor Byron Tapley of The University of Texas at Austin is the principal investigator on the GRACE project.
The E360 article described how GRACE operates:
"The way it works is ingenious: GRACE is actually two identical satellites, orbiting in formation 220 kilometers (137 miles) apart. When they approach an area of excess mass — a mountain range, for example — the extra gravity tugs on the lead satellite, making it speed up a little and increasing the distance between the two. When the satellites approach a mass deficit, such as a crater, the leading satellite slows. By measuring the distance between the two orbiters constantly and precisely, scientists can calculate the Earth's surprisingly lumpy gravity field with exquisite accuracy."
The article also talks about other Earth-observing satellites: ICESat (which stopped working in October), Ocean Circulation Explorer and CryoSat-2.
In the other GRACE news, its mission has been extended through the end of its orbit life, which is expected in 2015. NASA and its German counterpart agency, the German Aerospace Center (DLR), signed an extension agreement in June.
GRACE has been in orbit for more than eight years.
NASA and DLR developed the Grace mission. NASA provided the instruments and selected satellite components, plus data validation and archiving. DLR provided the primary satellite components, launch services and operations.

Region 'Vintage Port' - Year 1998
Rating | Drinkability | Style |
keep | Some excellent single quinta Ports for drinking in the medium term |
Weather Conditions
A cool, wet spring and early summer slashed yields and induced mildew and oidium in many vineyards. After a period of unrelenting heat in high summer, a minute but potentially outstanding vintage appeared to be on the cards. Picking began in the Douro Superior on 14th September and by 24th September the harvest was underway. Unfortunately, the heavens opened at the same time, diluting sugar levels and turning a potentially great vintage into a curate's egg: merely good in parts.
Best Appellations
See best producers
Best Producers
No major declaration but some good, concentrated wines were produced by quintas in the Douro Superior which picked before the rain. It is too early to assess the 1998 Ports as (at the time of writing) most are not yet in bottle. Possibly... Quinta Senhora da Ribeira (Dow) Quinta do Vesuvio

In a few weeks, man will face off in an epic battle against machine — in a game of ping pong.
At the beginning of March, robot manufacturing company KUKA Robotics will open its first plant in Shanghai, China. To celebrate, KUKA has recruited ping pong pro Timo Boll to challenge the company's fastest robot to a table tennis battle royale, which will ultimately determine whether humans or robots will win the race for world domination. Just kidding. It'll probably just show that KUKA's "Agilus" is a really freaking fast-moving and powerful robot.
The showdown will take place during KUKA's Shanghai Grand Opening festivities on March 11.
"There will be an introduction to the highly skilled KUKA Team, an overview of KUKA products produced in the new plant, and the opportunity to meet table tennis legend Timo Boll," the event's official site says. "The capstone will be the thrilling duel between Mr. Boll and KUKA's lightning-fast Agilus robot. Who will win? Stay tuned to find out!"
To further highlight the significance of the event, the company put together this extremely intense YouTube video, which looks kind of like a trailer for some dystopian version of Balls of Fury wherein Christopher Walken's character has been transformed into a crazy robot.

Title: | Exploring universe polymorphism in Omega |
Author: | Brown, Jonathon Daniel |
Abstract: | Ωmega extends Haskell with novel features for practical functional programming: GADT's, extensible kinds, and type functions. With both extensible types and extensible kinds in place, there is a tendency for redundant datatype definitions; likewise for functions that operate over these structures. Universe polymorphism is a way to abstract over levels in the typing hierarchy, unifying these redundant constructs. In this paper, we use Ωmega's novel features to encode simplified models of Ωmega as an object language, and then use these models to begin exploring the design space for universe polymorphism in Ωmega. |

Previously: Teddy was outed. Emily outfoxed Annie. Naomi flipped out over her feelings for a nerd. And Navid kicked AAdrianna's ass out the door... but not before she found out he was cheating on her and set a plan for vengeance.
West Bev. Naomi and dweeby-sexy Max peer into microscopes in the science lab. Within seconds, Max calls Naomi an "amazing specimen," and you know it must be a dream. Naomi leans coyly, and they slowly drift toward one another. Max takes off his glasses and sets them on the counter behind him as they start furiously making out. Naomi is so hungry for it, that she ends up pushing him back onto the counter and crushing his glasses. That crunch signals to her that something is wrong. "Nothing's wrong," Max says as he puts on the broken specs. "In fact, it's as right as a 90-degree angle." Even as he speaks, his face takes on an off-putting affect not unlike OG sexy nerd, Lewis Skolnick. Props to Josh Zuckerman for the physicality. And while I'm handing out kudos, let's have one for the music supervisors, who underscored this scene with the throbbing beats of "E.T." by Katy Perry, which simultaneously brings the sexy and features a nerd component. At any rate, Naomi wakes up from her nightmare and lets out a moan of both horror and titillation.
Now on to the real West Bev, where Dixon and Liam are playing pool and casting their biopics. Dixon criticizes Liam's pick to be played by James Dean on the grounds that James Dean is dead. Liam thinks 56-year-old Denzel Washington isn't any better a choice for Dixon to have made. Once Liam insults Dixon's pool skills, they get into it physically. Navid breaks up the tussle by telling them about an upcoming girls' volleyball championship he has to cover for one of the Blaze writers who has fallen ill. As they yuk it up about all the bobbing boobs they'll be ogling that weekend, Teddy comes in and asks what's up. The guys clam up because, clearly, now that Teddy's a big ol' gay, he'd never want to go to some icky event that's all girls. Sheesh. As the bell rings, Teddy notices the weirdness. He heads off and is sad when they don't even say goodbye.
Meanwhile, Naomi meets up with the school guidance counselor, a.k.a. Not Kelly Taylor. Naomi apologizes for being late, saying she couldn't sleep and praises Jeebus for hemorrhoid cream. When Not Kelly returns a baffled expression, Naomi explains that the cream reduces the puffiness. She can't believe that Not Kelly wouldn't know this trick since it is her job to guide students. Seems Naomi has a different idea of what guidance entails. In any case, Not Kelly called the meeting to talk about college. Naomi says she can't wait to be rid of the nerds in high school. Not Kelly tells her that being smart and well-read is actually an admirable, appealing trait for collegians. This puzzles Naomi. Not Kelly gets to the real point of the meeting: Naomi was wait-listed at CU. She thinks that this is good news since Naomi wasn't flat-out rejected, but Naomi is disheartened that her improved SAT scores and involvement in the Blaze filming segments with headlines like "Is Fat Contagious?" wasn't enough to get her accepted. Not Kelly gives her a sympathetic cock of the head and gives Naomi the wait list letter.
Out in the hall, Emily spots Liam walking down the hall absent-mindedly as he checks his smartphone. She devises to bump into him "accidentally." He is friendly and dopey as ever, so she takes the occasion to lay it on thick about how hard life has been now that Annie hates her and calls her a bitch all the time. She says it's been sad because she idolized Annie a kid. She lays down the death blow by suggesting that Annie would be livid just to see Liam talking to Emily. Being a guy, Liam does not understand these catty dynamics. He tries to defend Annie, but the seed has been planted in his mind.
In the cafeteria, Dixon asks Ivy whether it would be an adventure or a horrible mistake to choose the mystery sushi on offer. She says it's probably made from fugu, the Japanese blowfish that is fatally poisonous if it's not prepared correctly. Having grown up in Kansas, Dixon says he's never eaten fugu. She says she knows a restaurant that serves it downtown and invites him to join her for dinner. He asks if they'll go as friends. She admits she was hoping for more. He gently tells her he's not ready to take that step yet because he's still upset over what happened with Ausscar. Ivy makes a quick excuse and leaves with her tail between her legs.
Beach club. Silver meets AAdrianna just as the reality show producer calls to give the update on AAdrianna's show. It's not good news, mainly because Navid refused to sign a release to be in the show. The producer doesn't think there's enough drama and has shelved the project for now. With that, AAdrianna's career looks irredeemable. Instead of realizing she's a boring brat, AAdrianna blames it all on Navid. Silver asks if there's anything she can do. "You know what, there is something you can do," AAdrianna says as she pulls out the earring she found in Navid's bedroom. "You can help me find the cheating whore who has ruined my life." Silver = gulp. Credits.
West Bev. Annie gets nostalgic as she and Liam walk through the schools hallways and talk about graduating in a few months. Liam tells her that he applied to Drexel University in Philadelphia so he could be close to Pittsburgh, home of Carnegie Mellon where Annie hopes to attend. Annie says she's worried about her chances of getting in now that she didn't get the role in the play. Liam preemptively tells her it's time to move on and goes to bat for Emily, saying she didn't steal the part purposefully. Annie bugs out and insists Emily had every intention of screwing her over. Liam says Annie shouldn't punish Emily and lets it slip that Emily told him Annie's been giving her the silent treatment. As predicted, Annie is livid that Liam is consorting with her sworn enemy. Liam thinks it's silly that Annie cares this much. Annie says she doesn't trust Emily and orders Liam to stay away from her. Liam tells her to chill out and walks away... and right into Emily's web.
Blaze room. Silver and Navid make a big show of being business-like as she walks in. After he closes the door, though, he lunges in for a smooch. She pushes him away gently and says they need to talk. She explains that the producer put the kibosh AAdrianna's reality show, leaving her with nothing to do and a heart full of vengeance. Navid thinks they need to find something to distract AAdrianna and proposes they pawn her off on Dixon now that he's single. Silver -- a.k.a. Dixon's ex-girlfriend (not to mention a person with some decency left in her) -- thinks that's a bad idea. She begs Navid to sign the release. Then the show can go on, and AAdrianna can return to focusing on her career. Navid doesn't want to air his laundry in public, but Silver flips the chick switch and begs him to do it.
Science lab. After her make-out dream, Naomi squirms as Max nerds out about the universe, the narrowness of human understanding, and all things "you can't see with the naked eye." Naomi: "Please don't say naked." She pretends to be frustrated that she can't find a file on her computer, so he offers to take a look. When his hand brushes against hers, she yelps out. He jumps back, and she quickly lies that she's on edge after finding out that she's on CU's wait list. He tells her, "Victor numquam cedit." She wonders if this Victor is cute, but he explains that it's Latin for "Winners never quit." As he fixes her computer, he assures Naomi that she is many things but not a quitter. He tells her colleges give preference to well-rounded students and suggests she beef up her extracurriculars. She's not too keen on the idea of marching band or chess club, but she thinks there's something to this idea. And with that, she has a new mantra: "Victor numbnuts quidditch!"
School ends, and Annie catches up with the other girls in the parking lot. She immediately starts moaning about how crazy Emily is driving her. Since Emily twisted Annie's words on the yoga retreat and made the other girls think Annie ca

The 96th Annual Conference was again a great success as it provided local leaders with new ideas and information to help them do a better job of governing their communities. Our conference continues to be the largest in the nation, with the most educational sessions, exhibits, and networking opportunities for municipal attendees. Some 18,000 local officials received a full update on key issues they will face in the coming year.
During the business meeting on Thursday, November 17, I was honored to be elected President of this great organization. The League membership also elected Mayor Janice Mironov to the office of 1st vice president; Mayor Suzanne Walters to 2nd Vice President; and Mayor Gerald Tarantolo to 3rd Vice President. You can view a full list of the Executive Board on the League web site. I will rely on these new board members, and those re-elected to the board, for insight and assistance throughout the coming year. There will be full information on the new board members in upcoming issues of New Jersey Municipalities magazine.
In addition, at the business meeting, the membership passed several resolutions, which will guide League policy over the next year. See a full list of resolutions on the League web site and in the January issue of New Jersey Municipalities.
Many conference delegates wonder how the League is able to conduct the country's largest municipal conference with a full time staff of just 18. The answer is you! In the back of the conference program, you will see a listing of mayors who served on various committees. Although the list is extensive, it cannot possibly include all the mayors who work to make our conference successful every year. Mayors play an integral role by helping to produce sessions, moderating, working on committees, and auditing important sessions. Your dedicated service enables nearly 18,000 attendees to come together for one week of invaluable learning and networking each year. Thank you for making the 96th Annual Conference a great success.

Kitts Hill is getting a new water storage tank. The existing tank located on Homeless Road was constructed in 1971 during the first construction phase of the Hecla Water system. The painted steel tank with a storage capacity of 50,000 gallons was designed to serve about 100 homes in the Kitts Hill area, Dogfork, and parts of Homeless Road and Oak Ridge Road. |read more|
In an effort to make the Hecla Water system better and stronger with fewer chances of water
outages in the future, construction projects are under way using funds from savings. Some of the
projects include; installing a booster pumping station at Hecla Water garage, drilling test wells on
the new property in Hamilton Township, and erecting a new water storage tank at Kitts Hill.
Hecla Water's constant goal is to provide consumers with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. Continuous efforts are made to improve the water treatment process and protect Hecla's water resources. Trained water professionals are on duty 24 hours a day, every day of the year.
The Ohio Utilities Protection Service requires contractors and private citizens to call or click on their website 48 hours before digging. All utilities are notified of the digging location. Disregard of this state law causes water outages in some areas. It may also cause damages to be paid by the responsible party.

The Greenwich Roundtable today released a white paper that documents what can go wrong when investing in alternative investments, and what actions investors can take to avoid mistakes that result in large losses. With increased emphasis on risk management arising from the financial crisis, this white paper serves as a timely resource for investors in alternative assets.
"We were inspired to write this paper because nothing like this exists in the alternative investments industry," said Steve McMenamin, executive director of The Greenwich Roundtable. "We wanted to define the mistakes and crystallize the lessons that investors can learn from."
The research paper investigates how investors can avoid being victims of a fund that self-destructs. Although the press heavily focuses on sensational blow-ups, such as the Madoff case, there are many other cases to learn from. The goal of the Greenwich Roundtable paper is to help investors avoid funds that drag down the overall returns they seek from their alternative investment allocations.
"We have been watching, observing and analyzing adverse events in the industry for many years. In aviation, medicine and mountaineering, we've seen how objective analysis of mistakes helps people to recognize the warning signs and significantly reduce future accidents," said Mark Silverstein, chairman of the Greenwich Roundtable Education Committee and Chief Investment Officer of Endurance Specialty Holdings Ltd. "We believe this paper provides investors with an excellent tool to defend against investment mistakes."
The Greenwich Roundtable is a leading not-for-profit research and educational organization comprised largely of institutional investors who invest in alternatives. The purpose of the Greenwich Roundtable is to discuss and provide current and cutting-edge information on non-traditional investing.
"After reviewing over 200 cases, we chose the 22 most illustrative examples that provide the most powerful lessons," said Rusty Olson, former director of pension investments for Eastman Kodak Company and editor of this year's research paper. "We want investors to plainly see how they can avoid investment mistakes by understanding some of the warning signs."
The paper is broken down into two sections. The first section is a compilation of case studies that takes a deep dive into hedge funds that have failed. Each case study details the background of each fund, what went wrong and the warning signs. The second section discusses the importance of understanding cycles in private markets, knowing when to invest and how initial due diligence and continued manager monitoring can help avoid common pitfalls.
This is the seventh in a series of white papers on Best Practices in Alternative Investing published by The Greenwich Roundtable. This new research paper reflects the thinking of a highly diverse group of contributors who have extensive investment experience. The education committee responsible for the research paper is an interdisciplinary group of limited partners.
The research paper is written for all investors, which includes individuals, endowments, foundations, pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, funds of funds, insurance companies and family office investors.

Regular Aluminium Foil & Highlights
Q: Could I use regular aluminum foil to foil highlight someone's hair?
A: Sure. In fact, the local beauty supply chain in my community carries the standard sandwich size foil wrapping sheets in the pop-up box the same as you find in your local supermarket. And one of the salons I know purchase their foil from a bulk food service distributor and buy HUGE rolls of aluminum foil and an industrial cutter/dispenser. The key is to cut the foil into strips/sheets of manageable size for the purpose to which you intend to put them. This is generally four to five inches (10-13 cm) wide and eight to twelve inches (20-30 cm) long.
As a matter of fact, you dont even have to use foil. You can use waxed paper, or cellophane sheets, and Ive even seen a salon that used vellum and parchment. The key is that the substance has to be sturdy enough to withstand the exposure to the color/bleaching agent, and still be malleable enough to effectively segregate the segments of hair being highlighted/lowlighted. Foil has been the primary choice of most salons and stylists because it is A) cost effective and B) the most flexible and easy to manipulate.
You can also find foil in sheets or rolls that are tinted on one side for decorative purpose, many salons co-opted these variants for use in doing multi-color foil services. Now, there are companies who manufacture tinted foil sheets specifically for the purpose but you can often find more economical products that you can apply to this purpose (especially around holidays).
A word of caution: AVOID using the newer coated foils and wrappers in performing haircolor services. The coatings on these products can be transfered to the hair and leave a residue that is both unpleasant and can undermine the color processing.

I am full professor of Applied Mathematics, Statistical & Actuarial Sciences, and Business at Western University Canada, where I hold the Canada Research Chair in Quantitative Finance. Prior to working at Western I was a front office trading floor quant at Deutsche Bank (1997-1999) and a postdoctoral researcher in theoretical physiology at the University of Bern (1995-1999). I received my PhD in Applied Mathematics from Western in 1995.In 1991 I graduated with my B.A.Sc. in Engineering Science at the University of Toronto, where I specialized in Engineering Geophysics. I graduated from Westdale Secondary School in Hamilton in 1987. My research interests include energy finance, quantitative risk management, and applied operations research. At the bottom of this web page is a list of my recent papers in each of these areas. In energy finance I work on the optimal control of energy assets, pricing options on carbon markets, and the economic analysis of green energy sources. My background in engineering and my expertise in operational research, together with my research in modern quantitative finance all come in handy in this area. In quantitative risk management my main interests are in pricing and hedging options, particularly on a large number of underlying assets. I am also working on final revisions of my financial math textbook which will appear later in 2013. In applied operations research/industrial mathematics, I have helped organizations in industry, government, and health care solve problems ranging from cancer treatment optimization to the detection of naval mines. I am very happy with my strong team of current graduate students in the department of Applied Mathematics at Western and in the Department of Statistical and Actuarial Sciences. I am also very proud of my many past students who go from professional success to professional success. I am married to Christine, a speech therapist at the Thames Valley District School board and am the proud dad of two boys, Liam (11 years old) and Shawn (9 years old). My personal interests include the outdoors, swimming and boating, literature, and history.

The latest NAR Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers showed a growing trend among recent buyers.
The latest figures show that 89 percent of buyers purchased their home with the help of a real estate agent or broker. This is a sharp increase from a decade ago in 2001, when only 69 percent of buyers enlisted the help of an agent or broker.
Why do today's buyers buyers choose to work with an agent? Let's look at just a few of the many reasons an agent can be your biggest ally.
First, agents are licensed professionals, which means they had to complete coursework and pass an exam in order to become and agent. They have the education and experience to help you navigate what will be one of the biggest purchases of your life.
They also have access to a wide range of properties and can guide you to those that are the best fit for you, which can save you time and energy. If you are unsure what type of property you're interest in, an agent can help explain the pros and cons of things such as condo life versus single-family detached living.
Where are the up and coming neighborhoods? Which areas are more walkable or have access to better schools? These are all issues an agent deals with daily.
They can also ease the burden of buying by simplifying the process. They set up showings, drive you to appointments if needed, and help you handle the intricacies of negotiations.
Today's market also presents challenges that simply weren't present or didn't dominate the market a decade ago. Buyers are faced with some great deals, but through some complicated channels, such as short sale or foreclosure. How does one handle these sort of contracts? Your agent or broker will know.
According to the NAR, "More than ever home buyers are relying on real estate agents and brokers to help them with their home purchase regardless of whether the home they are buying is a foreclosure, short sale, or even a FSBO sale because they need a real estate agent to help them through the process."
Finally, buyers are unsure if now is really a good time to buy. They need to rely on someone with local market knowledge. Is this a good neighbor to invest in? Are prices still dropping in this community? How long do homes take to sell? What is the median selling price? Buyers want the best deal out there.
The 2011 Profile found that more buyers are opting against dual agency, where the agent represents both the buyer and seller. This could signal that today's buyers are very cautious about getting into the market. While a dual agent isn't supposed to harbor any bias, buyers now want to be extra sure they are getting the best deal possible. In fact, "60 percent of recent buyers had an oral or written arrangement with the real estate agent or broker so that the buyer's agent only represented the buyer and not the seller."
