But MoP will bring it back, there is an unifying theme there and a new class... plus a new race and many new play modes, so it seems everyone will get what they want soon

I think Cataclysm was the best expansion yet, because it renewed a lot of the stuff that had grown old and stale, and also managed to bring difficulty and fun back into the game. Unfortunately they completely ruined it, like WotLK, by nerfing the difficulty into oblivion. What's the point of a hard mode dungeon if you're guaranteed to win even if you get a full group of retards?
I was especially disappointed and quit because I felt conned by Blizzard. The main reason I bought the game was because of how Blizzard proudly proclaimed difficulty would be coming back, only to do a complete 180 on thieir word by having all the difficult dungeons nerfed to high Hell a few weeks after I dinged 85 on my Worgen.

I was preaching to the heavens at the start of cata. This is too hard! Was it too hard for me? No, but it was too hard. You have to tune things so captain derp can still fumble his way through an instance. No one, not even those of us who want a challenge, feels like running a heroic for 1.5 hours try to beat a boss. That's what raiding is for. It's why those of us looking for a challenge raid.
I still to this day see groups wiping on heroic GB. Especially the DPS check on the last boss. No Mr. Derp. You really can't do 2k on this boss and expect me to carry you. I have been recently gearing a hunter. It was my 20k to a 2k (how?!?) and a 4k. I just can't carry that. I'm not amazing!
The new HoT heroics were toned down. They seem about right. Just hard enough that Mr. Derp will wipe the group, but not so hard that Mr. Derp can't possible ride my coat tails to victory.
I said all along that those of us with our rose colored vanilla glasses were remembering it wrong. Sure, we have fond memories, but no one stops to think about how horrible it was to spam "LFG!" for 45 minutes, just to have Mr. Derp wipe you over and over because he didn't know how to kite on his shiny new hunter.
I will take Wrath style WoW over any style of WoW any day!
You can't make blizzard stop changing the game. I thought that the throngs of angry quiters would make them see the light or error of their ways. but they don't care they wont stop rebuilding the game each xpac. so when you finally wake up and see that pandas are going to be part of game world you sit back and go well cool then lets see how this goes.
What I want in WoW and what the devs want are very different. they get paid with player money to make the game the way they are told to make it. Right now I love transmog and LFR and have been soling old raid content with my pally. so i'm pretty happy. if they keep allowing me to have options then I will keep playing.

Most MMOs have better and worse Xpacs. If you look on the games with many like EQ you will see that 2/3 is pretty bad and that sounds about right for Wow as well.
It is not really a problem, the problem is that Blizzard make so few expansions compared to many other MMOs that a bad one have to last a longtime. In EQ you know there will be a new expansion 9 months later so you can live with a low level expansion.
Wow is kinda odd, 90% of the game is low level stuff that people play for a few weeks and making a low level expansion that have to last 2 years were a misstake. On the plus side is Blizzard good with patching in new content so it could be worse.
But anyways, I think Blizzard needs to pick up the pace with releasing expansions, it isn´t like they can´t afford to hire in some more people if that is what it takes. One every year is not really that hard.

I too am a casual and I left WOW after CATA (after 6 years of sub). To me the breaking point was the simplification of the Talent system. Not only are there fewer talants to tinker with but you are forced to go with the vision that Blizz had for the class and talent tree. I went to RIFT. After having the ability in that game to be almost whatever you want to be I just can't return to WOW no matter how much nostalgia pushes me. I have gone back to WOW from time to time and created low leve toons but as soon as I hit level 10 and that new talent system I quit. What makes me even sadder is that MOP is going to trim the talent tree even further!!! I really enjoyed WOW for 6 years but seeing where it is now and where it is headed - I am done with it.

Even if true, this isn't good justification to call it a success, since enough players left to cancel that out, and then some, and they are still leaving at a rate of ~1000 players per day. People bought it at launch so they could see what it was about, then promptly quit. Every other expac gained players at an alarming rate. You're essentially saying "Cata is a success because it took a nose dive." That is the fact that your claims support.

Regardless of what people think of the new race, Mists of Pandaria is still going to sell incredibly well and it does introduce some new things to do in the game that aren't related to their ever increasingly boring design philosophies. Not to mention they've got hot competition now -- if people really think that Blizzard has been sitting on their hands until something came along, I think they're bonkers. They've had almost 7 years of unquestioned rule (monetary and popularity) over this genre and they're most definitely not going to let go of it with a whimper.
I haven't even played Cataclysm and quit before WotLK ran it's natural course, but it's pretty easy to understand why players are leaving now, too, because the game is basically going to be stagnant until the new expansion; that doesn't mean they'll never return as some people seem to insinuate.
Not to mention, I think Cataclysm was kind of a slow burner. Sure, veteran players and people who were already at level cap didn't get much out of it, but it revitalized a ton of their old content for new players or simply old players starting over.

Three posts in a row not acknowledging that Vanilla, TBC, and WOTLK built the game to 10.5 million, and now Cata has torn the game below that mark and is still declining. Not only that, but the decline began only weeks after Cata came out. There is no way Cata can be called a success. Any game or expansion that ends up taking the IP lower than its starting point is a complete failure.

Different perspectives. Some call it failure, others do not.
The game is "running on fumes". It's old and out-dated and people hunger for something new. Many will take any reason to try a game that is not WoW simply because they want something that isn't WoW. Blizzard are squeezing out every ounce of their game, and they are still finding new ways to put some more gass in there.
Take these variables, look at the state of the game, and still call it a failure:
* The game has been out for 8 years.
* It's graphics are outdated.
* People have higher expectations then they had 8 years ago.
* People hunger for a new game.
State: Still the most successful mmo in the industry.
If a game is in a slow natural decay due to being outdated, but still manages to maintain millions of players, i do not see anything even remotley close to what can be called a failure. By some peoples definitons of failure, most games ever released is a failure because almost nobody plays them anymore. How often do you play Pacman these days? No? So it's a failure?
And no, i don't think Cataclysm is a failure. In fact, it's a success. The game has had it's peak, and what Blizzard can do at best is to make the decay as slow as possible. And that's exactly what Cataclysm has done. Some "veterans" may have finally given up, while new/long lost players emerge because these new features cater to them. There is only so much you can do to please a certian group of players, and i think they made the right move to maintain as many subscriptions as possible.
So the game is in a state of natural decay for various reasons, but is still the most successfull mmo in the world. Failure? Not in my book. It may however have failed to please you, which doesn't make the game or the expansion itself a failure.
The game has successfully done it's job, and will keep doing so for a while to come. When you pull something old out of your fridge which expired so you want to throw it out because it's old and smells - it didn't fail, you simply dont want it anymore. You want something new. Blizzard managed to make people eat that old smelly thing they pulled out of the fridge, and like it -> Success.

The fact is the content blizzard releases is so far apart once an expansion launches people know exactly what kind of content there is to play right off the bat. 6 months later a few things might chnage but its not groundbreaking. Cata was a huge failure in the eyes of players, maybe not in the eyes of profit because that will always be there, too many suckers like myself that caved and bought it right away. I just think people are fed up with the same thing over and over. I havn't played the new mists expansion but i can tell you one thing. Ive already played it for the past 5 or so years nothing amazing will come out of it. I actually think Vanguard releases more content updates than blizzard does and they have millions and millions to throw in a fire and burn. You just have to ask yourself this one question.
Where does all the money go that WOW produces? Beacause it sure doesnt go into developing things in a timely matter.
Maybe another decade from now when titan comes out we will finally relise thats where its all been going.

Pork, it's like beef but not quite.
Old and outdated? They still have the best Gfx engine and combat responsiveness of any MMO I've ever played. However the game started going south way before this expansion - my personal marker is when they added X server PvP and LFD - Cata was just the final nail in the coffin.

Rated 5 out of 5 by DT1995 A short stay at the Sheraton Although I was only at this hotel for less than two days, I had the best overall experience at a Starwood property in the past few years. Checking in and out was efficient and quick. There were extra towels and soap. The room was clean and conducive to both work and rest. The staff was extremely helpful. There definitely has been a substantial upgrade all round at this hotel since I last stayed in it three or so years ago. June 13, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Diana The hotel was comfortable Thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Had a family member who came to visit us and being on Club Level enhanced our stay. We were able to take her into the Club Lounge and spend time talking and enjoying the marvelous Manhattan backdrop! Thank you. Had an issue with a charge and the front desk immediately took care of it. June 12, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Annie Great visit All the employee personnel were very helpful. Especially the conciere. He not only had suggestons for places to see and eat but provided maps as well. We parked our care there and found that due to the parade that weekent the suggestions for alternate routes was invaluable. June 12, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jake Amazing staff and location! The staff at this place is amazing! Meredith was fantastic in helping with every question I had and Edwin knew what he was talking about! Also the concierge and lady on night audit were very helpful. Great Stay! June 11, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by SheratonNY Come On Join the 21st Century I DID like using this hotel for business!! How in this day of competition and hotels of lower quality than Sheraton NY would you not have the ability to allow guests to hook a personal computer to a printer and print?????? Yes, I can send an e-mail or carry a flash drive to a FedEx Business center but, NO WHERE in the hotel - according to Front Desk is there a place for one to hook and print! COME ON let's join the 21st century and offer services lesser ranked hotels offer for free!!!! June 10, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Mil1234 Unsatisfactory experience The bellman dropped off our luggage and never took the time to explain any features of the room. We had to call downstairs because our fridge was locked. Had to call a second time because the TV did not work. We could not get the lamp/light to work. We had to call a 3rd time because there were no shower curtains in our bathroom. This was a business trip and because of the problems was not able to go to sleep until 11:30pm! This hotel was not up to my standards and I will never return. June 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by TravelBuff123 Wonderful Hotel The Sheraton far exceeded our expectations! The hotel is lovely, rooms are comfy and clean, the staff was exceptional. We had a slight problem with our reservations at check in and they resolved it cheerfully and efficiently. I will definitely stay here again. June 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Stillerbar Good PLace to stay in the heart of the action We picked the hotel because of it's loctaion. Of course that didn't disappoint but neither did the room or staff. We definately would consider staying here again if we get back to NYC. June 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lynn50 Perfect Stay From the elegant and sophisticated entrance, to the friendly, knowledgable and helpful staff to the clean, polished and ultra-comfortable bed and room....it was a perfect stay. Excellent location in NYC. It was nice to come "home" at the end of the day. June 10, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by Joan13 Introducing Our 18 year old Grandson to NYC Being a Starwood member, we chose the Sheraton Times Square Hotel on W. 52nd and Seventh because we had stayed there many times and because it is centrally located. We requested an upgrade with a view (if possible). The Sheraton treated us like royalty giving us a corner suite with a connecting room on the 36th floor. Wonderful stay; beautifully renovated hotel; great staff. June 9, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by babak91 Location and hotel were great, but SPG recognition not good Location, cleanliness and feel of the hotel were very good. I have gold status and was given a far worse room than my travel partner who had no status. That was my only complaint. June 9, 2013

Rated 4 out of 5 by MaryAnn21 Excellent Location The hotel's excellent location is within walking distance of many great attractions within Times Square. The subway stop directly on the corner of the hotel is very convenient. It takes you to Battery Pary, 911 Memorial, Herald Square, Yankee Stadium (just to name a few). This is my second stay at the Sheraton and I would stay there again. June 7, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by mer2 Nice housekeepers The housekeeper was friendly and did well with service. She was helpful when the ice machine didn't work as well. June 6, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by KSNW Not as good as you'd expect The Sheraton has a world wide reputation for a luxury hotel. It was far from this. The hotel was crowded and did not give the impression of a luxury brand hotel. The hotel charged extra for everything - from leaving luggage for 3 hours on the day of checkout, to using the gym, to using wifi in the room. This was so disappointing and not the experience expected or received by other top end hotels around the world. June 6, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jiml44 Nice stay Nice rooms, Friendly Staff. Stayed one night to go to a Yankee Game. Subway to Yankee Stadium Right outside the entrance to the Hotel. 5 min. walk to Time Square. June 4, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Rick disappointed had a un-enjoyable stay. i am a SPG member and have been for some time. Stayed at this hotel a few times before. This time the room was dirty, amenities were not replaced after used, we were charged for things that we did not use or take, the fitness club was dirty. And most of all the front desk was un-friendly and not cooperative. I left my daughters name to pick up a key to the room on 6/1. I was told her name is in the computer and all she would need was to show ID and she can get the key. She met with a Lin at the front desk who was very rude and said no key and she could not get in the room. I had to call the hotel and give my credit card information and Lin continued to be rude and put us on hold. Never had this experience at a Starwood hotel before. June 4, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by fisherbeer This hotel is perfectly located! My wife and I visited NYC for my son's graduation from medical school. We also planned to do some shopping, take in some Broadway shows and enjoy great dining. The Sheraton NY Times Square Hotel was perfectly situated. Close to the graduation at Lincoln Center, close to great shopping and dining and close to Broadway. We have stayed here during several trips and as usual, the hotel met all or needs and expectations. June 3, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by bookexpoattendee Pleasant Stay Easy walking distance of theaters, museums, Time Square, Central Park. All staff was pleasant and helpful at all times. We never had the feeling that our requests should be addressed elsewhere. No matter who we approached they helped even if it meant walking us to the appropriate staff June 3, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by snowlyly The room cleaning was bad The room has garbage when we check in, and the bathtub has hair left on it. June 3, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Dee77 Find another hotel My experience at your hotel was very unpleasant and I will not be staying there again. I selected your hotel because of my great experiences with other Starwood resorts in the past. However, your hotel did not live up o the standards I have come to expect from Starwood hotels. When I made my reservation, I informed the agent I would be traveling with a dog and specifically asked if there were designated areas to curb my dog and was told yes. Upon check in, I asked the check in agent where to walk my dog and the response was a shoulder shrug and "guess out on the sidewalk, we don't have a specific area." This caused a significant problem for me because I had no place to walk my dog, it was impossible to walk the dog on the busy sidewalks next to the hotel. I frequently travel with my dog and I have never encountered a dog friendly hotel that didn't provide a dog area outside. You should inform people that you do not provide a curb area for dogs. Next, the room was extremely disappointing. The air conditioner did not work properly. I had it set at lowest setting the entire time I was there and it never stopped running. The room was warm and humid the entire time making it uncomfortable and causing me to have allergy attacks. The tub in the bathroom was also a problem because it did not drain properly. I stood in three inches of water every time I showered. On several occasions when I left the hotel, I was encountered by people by the front door begging for money. I understand that this is a large hotel in New York City with many people around; however, I can't comprehend how there was no employees to keep the front entrance clear. My experience was so bad that I actually changed my reservation and left a day early because I was so frustrated with this hotel. I have plans to return to New York several more times this year but I will not be staying at any Sheraton Hotels on my future trips. June 3, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by John104 Typical New York Hotel Commoditized experience. Long waits for checkin if you are not SPG, Long waits for lifts. June 3, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jimd Disapointed with check in I booked my reservation online with a special rate that was to include 2 cans of Coca Cola, a cooler and a $25 gift card. When I checked in e front desk did not mention the rate and when I questioned it, the woman replied "Yeah I saw that and did not know what to do with it", so she ignored it and checked me in. I asked her to figure it out and she could not, so she sent 2 cans of coke to the room and the bill was incorrect the next morning. I plan to call Sheraton and ask for an explanation, not happy. June 2, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by BLnKS Little Things Make A Difference Pillows are very uncomfortable. Said they were feather, but they were certainly foam. Also, the in-room safe was locked. Repeated calls to the front desk to have someone come to the room to unlock the safe were unsuccessful. June 2, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Raymond1958 Good location The Hotel is well located, but the room and faclity would need a little more tneder care. May 31, 2013

If the student government at Los Alamos High School has its way, or more accurately the entire student body, students at the school could see a massive revamp of the dress code.
Student Council President Soumyo Lahiri-Gupta, Vice President Jason Dunn and other officers of the council approached the Los Alamos Board of Education about making modifications a recent meeting.
According to Dunn, their survey questions to the student population revealed two main gripes: the required length a pair of shorts must meet and the way the dress code is enforced.
During the presentation, Board Secretary Matt Williams asked the students in attendance just how difficult it is to find shorts that go to four inches above the knee, the code's current requirement.
"It's very hard," said one student, while another added that Capri pants are another option, but "they aren't shorts." The students added that it gets very hot in the classrooms during the summer months, making it very uncomfortable.
At the meeting, they presented the school board with a report of their findings as well as a suggested replacement of the code.
"We believe that the adoption of this dress code will improve the overall morale at Los Alamos High School and increase student spirit," Dunn said.

The Delhi High Court on Monday asked civic agencies to expedite the process of handing over two sites, measuring about 200 acres, in the city to municipal bodies so that they can use the same for managing the garbage piling up.
A bench of Justice GS Sistani asked the North Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC) to take possession of about 110 acres of land in village Sultanpur Dabas at the earliest and also file a status report informing the court how they propose to utilise the land and a timeframe for the same.
The court also asked the authorities to hold a meeting expeditiously to work out the modalities regarding 100 acres of land in village Mandi, Jaunapur in South Delhi, so that the site can be handed over to the municipal corporation at the earliest.
It asked the municipal bodies and Delhi Development Authority (DDA) to file their respective affidavits regarding the progress in handing over of the two sites and listed the matter for further hearing on August 7.
The court passed the order, after it was informed by DDA that these two sites have been identified and the process is underway to hand over possession of the same to the concerned municipal bodies for waste management purposes.
DDA made the submission before the court in pursuance of the court's July 10 order directing that a meeting be held between the authorities regarding a piece of land in North Delhi, which, according to DDA, measured 100 acres while MCD claims it to be around 44 acres.
Meanwhile, East Delhi Municipal Corporation informed the court that it has identified about 75 acres of land near Sonia Vihar area here which can be utilised for waste management. The court has asked the authorities to discuss the availability of the site near Sonia Vihar in a meeting to be held between them and if it can be made available, then the same be done expeditiously.

Real or not, this picture of Rajon Rondo and a girl wearing a "LeBron is a ******** shirt is fantastic
Originally written on The Last Angry Fan | Last updated 11/18/14
It's real and it's spectacular. The fellas over at Lob Shots posted this pic earlier today of Celtics guard Rajon Rondo posing with a lovely young lady sporting a "LeBron is a ******** t-shirt, and they were questioning the veracity of the photo. While I don't profess to be an expert at recognizing a photoshopped pic when I see one, it would really take a lot to convince me that this isn't the real deal, what with the lighting and the misshapen letters conforming exactly to the way she's pulling on the shirt. And judging by the pens stationed in front of Rondo, this appears to be some sort of autograph signing, so why wouldn't a fan wear a shirt labeling LeBron a *****? I doubt there would have been many Heat fans there to meet and greet Rondo or any of the other Boston players. Great shirt and a great photo, but King James got the last laugh as Miami beat the Celtics 120-107 in the season opener. Doesn't prove he isn't a ***** though, right? [H/T to Lob Shots]

It is Thursday, almost the weekend, but not. Just what a Viral Video Load is for; bridging that gap between the boring mundane work week and an awesome drunken weekend of college hoops. These are some of the best, silliest and relevant videos you gotta see – before your parents watch them on Facebook – including runners, foreigners and babies, of course.
Jimmy Kimmel's Cousin Sal at the LA Marathon
For those uninitiated, Los Angeles is the city of
angels nightmare traffic. Add to that the LA Marathon – where once a year selfish runners close down half the city so that they can accomplish a "life goal" – and the city is in sheer gridlock. Not that I am up early on a Sunday morning, but if I was, a trip from my driveway to brunch on this particular day would take longer than Taylor Swift's boyfriend getting to second base. So when Jimmy Kimmel sends out his Cousin Sal – the resident prankster on the JKL staff – to taunt, annoy and bombard these runners mid race, I take nothing but pleasure in the shenanigans. Water bottles glued to a table, classic. Jello shots, hilarious. And a "Wheel of Giant Prizes" that never stops spinning, genius!
March Madness Pool
It's March Madness, that time of year where you hang with your bros, drink beer and watch insane amounts of college basketball. If you didn't know that, you are probably the guy featured in this video. Don't be this guy! Your friend's "pool" this time of year would involve them gambling, not your wet fantasy of them in board shorts …
Russians Don't Need Their Arms
We all know Russians are late to the ball on most everything; space travel and democracy, being a few obvious examples. So when they get ahead of the world in anything, it should be cause for alarm. In this video, it seems those crafty Bond villains have discovered what army cadets everywhere aspire to learn, and something that would make even David Blaine blush … No handed push ups!
… Nor Do Russians Need Their Legs
Sure, I know what you are thinking, "No arms, big whoop. That one armed rock climber James Franco played in 127 Hours does way sweeter things on a daily basis. It's not like Russians could do sweet moves without functioning legs" … Challenge accepted!
Skateboarding Baby
I am a big fan of babies, assuming they aren't mine of course. There is something about their naive nature, simplicity and enjoyment in basically all things ever. Enter the Venice boardwalk – part tourist trap, part degenerate hell hole – which would make most people cringe. An innocent baby Ava however, she doesn't care, she is just here to skate, yo!
2013 Dad of the Year
Remember "Tanning Mom"? That lady that put her 5 year old into a tanning bed. We may have found her OkCupid match. A Dad that puts the "beat" in deadbeat. In probably the weakest attempt at exploiting one's child in order to get their 15 minutes of fame, this father "playfully" beats his child, making even Michael Lohan question his parenting skills …
And there you go, that should have shaved at least 20 minutes off of your Thursday. Now you can go back to streaming college hoops while you pretend to work on a generic spreadsheet.

Christian Music Dove Awards
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Gospel Music Association's Dove Awards ceremony will return to Nashville, Tenn., this year but will be held six months later than usual.
The Christian music awards are normally handed out in April, but the GMA says this year's ceremony will be held on October 15 at Lipscomb University in Nashville, Tenn.
In a press release, the GMA says the autumn ceremony will highlight Christian artists "leading into the industry's most significant retail sales season."
The annual awards show was held the last two years in Atlanta after four decades in Nashville.

Connecticut Civil War Commemoration Commission, in collaboration with The Center
for the Arts & Humanities and the University of Saint Joseph Queenes Companye,
requests the pleasure of your company for a special event to remember the 150th
anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's assassination.
Join Dr. Matthew Warshauer, Professor of History at Central Connecticut State University and Co-Chair of the Connecticut Civil War Commemoration Commission, as he guides you through the end of the war. From the joyous celebration of Confederate General Robert E. Lee's surrender to the nation's heartbreak as news of the assassination quickly overshadowed Union victory.
This will be a riveting presentation complimented by actor readings from
original documents, newspapers, and reminiscences, as well as a truly amazing
array of historic images. Hear John Wilkes Booth's motivations, Secretary of War
Edwin Stanton's obsession with capturing those responsible, the voices of
Connecticut soldiers who heard the news at the front, and the public's reaction
to the most audacious act in American history.
Prepare yourself to be thrust back in time to April 14, 1865. This is an event you simply can't afford to miss.
Join us for an historic evening.
Guests attending "Assassination" are requested to dress appropriately for an event of this magnitude.

As we previously discussed in our blog post, the "continued employment doctrine," which is the majority view in Illinois, is that two years of continued employment after an employee enters a restrictive covenant is "substantial continued employment" that makes the agreement enforceable without any additional consideration (such as payment, promotion, or other benefits). Under this view, continued employment lasting less than two years does not necessarily defeat consideration, but presents a tougher battle for enforcement.
But Illinois state courts have previously only applied the continued employment doctrine to agreements entered into between employees and employers after the employment relationship begins. We are not aware of any Illinois state court decisions applying the continued employment doctrine to agreements between employers and employees that are entered into prior to or at the commencement of the employment relationship, that is until now.
The Illinois Appellate Court's recent opinion in Fifield v. Premier Dealer Services, Inc. presents a sea change: if employment is the sole consideration for a restrictive covenant agreement (including prior to or at the commencement of the employment relationship), the consideration will not be valid until the employee is employed for at least two years. Employers should be proactive in light of this decision. For more on the Fifield case and the steps employers should take in response to the case, see "A Sea Change—Illinois Appellate Court Issues Key Ruling on Restrictive Covenant Agreements."

"The mask is used to deliver oxygen to animals and was designed to be used by vets," Stebbins said. "There are three sizes and for different weight pets and are longer or deeper that normal equipment to fit the animals face."
The equipment isn't standard at all fire departments, though. The Skaneateles Fire Department received one set last year through a donation from Invisible Fence in Syracuse. This was the first time the device needed to be used and, according to Stebbins, it worked very well.
While SAVES is dispatched to all structure fires to act as support for the fire departments responding to the call and for the homeowners, the department now can proudly say they are able to offer support for animals along with the fire department.
Stebbins said departments that would like to begin carrying the canine resuscitation masks on their apparatus should contact Invisible Fence, where they can be obtained for free. Many departments are finding them useful to have on hand, he added.
"I am very happy that SAVES and the fire department participated in helping Lyla, and I am happy anytime that I can use my knowledge to help anyone or a family pet," Stebbins said.
Firefighters from Skaneateles, Mottville, Marcellus, Sennett and Owasco and SAVES responded to the blaze. Engines from Amber and Fairmount covered at Skaneateles station one in case of another emergency call while Skaneateles was responding to the call at Onondaga Street.
VanBeveren said the resuscitation effort was a "great collaboration" between SAVES and the fire department.

The existing doors are pretty sturdy, and yes they're lift off hinges, which is handy when you have a couple of people lounging in the cockpit, or when you're sailing in mild weather.
The problem is the way they're mounted you can't use the hatch boards at all. There was at least one occasion when I was running the inlet south of Long Beach Island that I would have liked to drop the hatch boards in. Thankfully the original hatch boards were on board when I bought the boat.
Another issue is that the doors are slightly taller than the hatch boards. That means you have to lift the hatch over the doors to unlock the boat. That's a big heavy hatch and an issue for my vertically challenged wife.
What I have in mind is a setup like the one on Cruising Dad's Dad's boat. I'll create a teak frame in place of the existing metal frame. I have new brass lift off hinges and the doors will hinge from that wood frame. This accomplishes a couple of things. The hatch boards can be dropped in quickly, whether the doors are on or not. It will create a wider "threshold", that I can angle at 15 degrees and seal with a rubber strip. That will keep rain from getting under the doors. I'll route a thin groove on the hinge side of each door for weather stripping. And as on Cruising Dad's Dad's boat I'll mount a teak strip on the companionway hatch, so you won't have to lift the hatch to open it.
Rather than make the doors with a standard rail/stile setup, I'll use a mortise and tennon design. This will make the doors stronger, and will allow me to bevel the bottom stile to let water run away from the base of the glass to prevent leaks. A thin strip of butyl tape (sp?) applied to the plexi-glass should provide a good seal. I'm thinking about a simple thumbwheel setup to hold the glass/screens in the doors. But I haven't been able to find a low profile thumbwheel that matches the picture in my head.
I like the idea of a door knob, but I'll probably go for the simplicity of a brass hasp. I'm going to have the local canvas guy make a five compartment case to mount on the vertical wall of the aft berth under the stairs that can hold the hatchboards and the doors.
For materials I'm looking at either teak or ribbon mahogany for the doors and frame. Brass hardware and aqua pearl acrylic to do dolphin inlays on the inside of the doors in the upper right corners. The wife loves the stained glass we saw in a set of doors on a Gozzard but I'm worried about durabililty.
Sorry for the long post, I hope it fills in the details for what I'm thinking.
Now what am I missing and how can I make the design better? I want to do this once.
Cannot wait to see those doors!!!

While on a motorcycle trip, We stayed for a night at the end of August, right before Norm and Linda's son Alex left for his first semester of college. With all of their preparations going on, the family made us feel at home, took time to share information and advice about the area, make sure we were comfortable and prepared a delicious breakfast. The historic Capt Swift Inn was beautifully decorated, spotless and a short walk from the waterfront. We are looking forward to returning next year. Gregg Spoering

The Captain Swift Inn was a nice find for our Maine getaway. I chose it for the reasonable price - hard to find in Camden. I was pleasantly surprised. We were met by the cheerful owner and shown to our room - which he had upgraded for us without our asking. The room was on the quiet side of the inn (The Bay Breeze room) and was larger than the one I had chosen. The bathroom was bright and spacious. My only complaint with it was the clawfoot tub - they are charming but don't really work all that well for showering! The breakfasts at the Inn are fabulous. Simple fare, but plenty of it and presented with flair. The owners are available and friendly. We enjoyed meeting them and talking with them each morning. Their son was helpful and even carried our bags upstairs for us! The location is quite convenient to the main drag, but not too close either. I would recommend it to anyone travelling to the area.

We enjoyed an entire week at the Captain Swift Inn with our teenaged daughter. The suites are ideal for this as the kids have their own space in the loft with TV/DVD, couches, a table and refrigerator. Rooms are quiet, beautifully decorated, spacious and impeccably clean. The breakfast was often our best meal of the day, with a different menu every day. There is a well-stocked library and DVD collection, a computer in the reading room, and free high speed WIFI. The location is ideal - only two or three blocks from the center of town and the harbor. But the best thing about Captain Swift Inn are the innkeepers Norm, Linda and Alex. They were like friends, asking us about our plans for the day, providing guidebooks and suggestions for things to do, and even offering to make arrangements or reservations. We could not have asked for a more relaxing and enjoyable vacation. We will definitely be back!
4,6 sur août 11, 2008
My father is disabled and has trouble going up stairs, so we specifically chose this inn because their "Hannah's room" was on the 1st floor (an unusual feature in a historic inn). It was really perfect for him, especially the handicapped-accessible ensuite bath. Linda and Norm were wonderful as well... very solicitous and accommodating. We couldn't have been happier! One note for late risers or light sleepers, though: the only down side of being on the 1st floor is that the room is next to the common areas, so you will hear other guests, particularly at breakfast-time. But overall, it was wonderful and we would definitely stay there again.

St Johnstone followed up their Europa League success in Norway with a pre-season 1-1 draw against Dundee. The Perth men made the short journey east to Dens Park for the summer warm-up clash just three days after stunning Rosenborg in their second qualifying round first-leg tie with Frazer Wright's first-half winner. There were further positive signs when striker Stevie May put the McDiarmid men ahead early in the first half, but Dundee claimed the draw with Carlo Monti's second-half strike. European hero Wright was given the day off for the meeting with John Brown's team, although Tam Scobbie, Dave Mackay, Paddy Cregg and David Wotherspoon were all in the starting line-up after seeing duty in Trondheim. Former Rangers, Dunfermline and Aberdeen midfielder Barry Nicholson, meanwhile, was one of two trialists named on the Saints bench by boss Tommy Wright. The visitors struck early as May put them ahead. The forward latched on to Liam Caddis' through ball and was clinical with his...

Consumer group presses state to sue Shell
"We are closing the refinery," said Cameron Smyth.
"As we have said in the past, the reason is the decline of the San Joaquin Valley heavy crude that feeds the refinery," he said.
The refinery was built in Bakersfield to be close to the highly viscous crude oil that it refines, Smyth said, resulting in a landlocked facility that cannot be fed from other crude supplies without constructing a large pipeline to connect it with the Port of Los Angeles.
"The assertion that Shell made this decision to either drive up prices or restrict supply is completely false," Smyth said.
"We will entertain any credible offers for the Bakersfield refinery, but, to date, we have not seen any, and anyone who wants to buy it will still have to solve the problem of the San Joaquin Valley heavy crude, the same issue we face," he said.
Smyth said the company expects to begin the process of dismantling the refinery immediately after it closes, but it could be a long process because permits and regulatory approvals will take time to get.

Ray Allen's patience is rewarded
|06.03.10 at 8:32 pm ET
LOS ANGELES — Ray Allen is a creature of habit. For him, the only thing worse that not doing his pregame routine, which isn't really an option anyway, is not being able to do his pregame routines because there are no games.
The extra rest may have been necessary to get his teammates healthy, but Allen has never liked having a long break in his rhythm. "It's seem like it's been forever, but it's here," Allen said. "You wait five, six, seven days, but it just happens just like that."
However, this time is a little bit different because this is the NBA finals.
"You get a chance to soak up the sun and enjoy the success that you've had," Allen said. "Once you get that you have to keep going and keep focus. There is definitely no comparison to the first few rounds. The conference finals are no comparison. As a team, as a player, it's the Super Bowl. It's just another level."

Soul-sucking 'dementor' wasps and 8 other crazy new species
Soul-Sucking Dementor Wasp
Latin name: Ampulex dementor
Topics: Darling Companion, Movies, Entertainment News
If you consider yourself a movie buff and have only a vague idea of who Lawrence Kasdan is, or none at all, then you're almost certainly on the dewy side of 35. Bursting onto the Hollywood scene in the early '80s as the writer-director of "Body Heat" and "The Big Chill," not to mention the principal screenwriter for "Raiders of the Lost Ark," "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi," Kasdan was one of the hottest guys in the business for at least a decade. Today, although he's younger than Steven Spielberg or Martin Scorsese (and only a few years older than the Coen brothers, for instance), Kasdan looks like a flailing, irrelevant has-been. His entire career, and his unfortunate and completely uninteresting new movie, "Darling Companion," which is about a bunch of rich white people looking for a lost dog, illustrates the dangers of attaching yourself firmly to a generational identity. In other words: Ask not for whom the mutt woofs, Lena Dunham. It woofs for thee.
"Darling Companion" is supposed to be the third film in an operatic trilogy of ensemble pieces about the baby-boom generation's progress through life, one that began with "The Big Chill" in 1983 and continued with "Grand Canyon" in 1992. If that sounds a little depressing, you haven't even seen the movie yet. Whatever the real or imagined crimes of the boomers may be, they don't deserve this pallid, embarrassing canine comedy that squanders a cast of terrific actors on playing 1 percenters trapped in a Colorado resort community. And I don't even want to talk about the sexy, sultry Gypsy fortune teller (played by Israeli actress Ayelet Zurer) who keeps having visions of where the dog might be, or what colorful local yokels he may have encountered. Doesn't the Roma community have some equivalent to GLAAD or the NAACP? Get on it, people! Zurer's character may or may not reflect actual bigotry, but New Age idiocy is almost as bad.
Kasdan was himself 34 when he released "The Big Chill," his second film as a writer-director after the sizzling neo-noir "Body Heat," and thereby became the self-appointed priest of boomer self-regard. I don't know whether I'd view it more generously today, but at the time "The Big Chill" struck me as a highly effective morass of manufactured emotion. Telling the interlocking stories of a group of former college pals coming to grips with adulthood after the early death of one of their number, it set the template for a sentimental, day-of-reckoning genre that's been popular ever since (but which Kasdan did not invent, to be sure), launched the white-people Motown revival craze of the early '80s, and propelled several of its cast members, including Glenn Close, William Hurt and Jeff Goldblum, onto star trajectories. It also marked the beginning of Kasdan's collaboration with Kevin Kline, who has played an apparent authorial surrogate in six of the writer-director's films. (One could argue that their careers are parallel in other ways: Both Kasdan and Kline have been productive and successful, but neither has quite fulfilled the hype of their early years.)
But here's the main thing about "The Big Chill," seen from this distance: It was clearly a personal film in a way that "Body Heat," and Kasdan's screenplays for George Lucas and Spielberg, had not been. It was such a huge success, and touched the lives of such a vast cohort of baby boomers who were then around 30, that it sent him in entirely the wrong direction. I get it, actually. It would have required superhuman willpower to say: Well, I told a story about my own life and got three Oscar nominations, and a whole generation of college-educated white folks bought into it as being their story too. But I should just go back to writing thrillers and adventure movies because that's what I'm actually good at!
Of course Kasdan saw the post-"Chill" period as a chance to indulge his grandest personal ambitions; anyone would have. He made a game effort to resuscitate the big-budget western around Kevin Costner, not once but twice ("Silverado" in 1985, which is pretty good, and the lumbering "Wyatt Earp" in 1994), adapted the most popular novel of fellow boomer avatar Anne Tyler ("The Accidental Tourist"), and even wrote a screenplay designed to turn doomed R&B superstar Whitney Houston into an actress ("The Bodyguard"). But all of that wraps around the release of "Grand Canyon," a multi-stranded tale of life in Los Angeles that prefigures Paul Haggis' Oscar-winning "Crash" and stands, for better or worse — and there's plenty of both — as the apogee of Kasdania.
"Grand Canyon" (co-written with Meg Kasdan, Lawrence's wife) came out at almost the exact moment when Bill Clinton became the leading candidate of the 1992 election, and the two phenomena are closely aligned (at least for me) as markers of the boom generation's political and cultural ascendancy. Mawkish, sincere, self-indulgent and daring (and in all those ways like Clinton himself), "Grand Canyon" has no shortage of ambition. It tries to break out of the prison of privileged whiteness Kasdan had captured in "Big Chill," depicting Kline's affluent lawyer character's awkward struggle to befriend a black tow-truck driver (Danny Glover) who has rescued him from muggers. (As in "Big Chill" and "Darling Companion," Kasdan apparently drew on incidents from life.) It compiles a veritable laundry list of early-'90s obsessions, from urban crime and child abuse to violence in the media and the black-white racial divide (one of several meanings of the title). "Grand Canyon" is simultaneously a much worse and much better film than "The Big Chill": It's more self-indulgent and less clearly organized, but its grasp is also much larger.
Kasdan has made only four films in the 21 years since "Grand Canyon," and none since "Dreamcatcher" in 2003. (Did you see it? Me neither.) All I really need to tell you about "Darling Companion" is this: Those who have seen "Grand Canyon" will recall that one of the film's numerous crises arises when Mary McDonnell, playing the wife of Kline's character, finds an abandoned baby when she's out jogging and tries to adopt it. In the new movie the same thing happens again. Except that it's Diane Keaton, being all zany and dotty in her inimitable style as the wife of Kline's ultra-rich spine surgeon. And she finds a dog, not a baby. Oh, and she's not jogging, she's driving. And it's beside the freeway in Denver, not in L.A. In other words, the drama has been dialed down from, like, 11 to 0.8 across the board, and it doesn't improve from there.
Now, just to be clear: Apparently Meg Kasdan really did rescue a lost dog from the freeway, and good for her. Then it apparently got lost again, and I'm sure that was painful. I do not begrudge these nice people their dog, either in the movies or in real life, and just about the only flash of self-awareness you will find in "Darling Companion" (again co-written with Meg) lies in the observation that pets take on an outsize importance in the lives of empty-nesters as they draw near to old age. (I have no problem, in a general way, with movies about dogs, although I'm not sure I will ever inflict "Sounder" upon my children.) Indeed, the 60-something empty-nester phenomenon is rife with dramatic and comic possibility, but this zero-wattage knockoff of "Midsummer Night's Dream," which features Kline, Keaton, Dianne Wiest, Richard Jenkins, Mark Duplass and the aforementioned offensive but smokin' Gypsy seeress stumbling through the Rocky Mountain forests after the missing pooch, captures none of it.
Kasdan never spoke for an entire generation when he was a huge success, and he doesn't now. It absolutely isn't fair to claim that his failed trilogy tells us anything about the failure of America's effusive, optimistic, would-be-world-transforming postwar generation. But it sure is tempting. Because the tragedy of "Darling Companion" isn't that it's a silly and inconsequential movie about some old people and a dog but that it's such a blind, closed and cosseted movie, depicting an isolated world of rootless characters who have sealed themselves off in a beautiful nowheresville far away from the social conflicts Kasdan once tried to wrestle with so vividly. The doggie in "Darling Companion" is a big, warm bundle of puppy love; his owners are lost forever in a big chill.
"Darling Companion" opens this week in New York and Los Angeles, with wider release to follow.

'Set up post-matric hostels in all taluk headquarters'
Establishing police stations in all municipal and town panchayat limits suggested
Raichur: Chairman of the Karnataka State Commission for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Nehru C. Olekar said that the commission has submitted a proposal to the State Government recommending it to issue smart cards to SC/ST families so that they can avail themselves of benefits under various development schemes.
Addressing presspersons here on Thursday, Mr. Olekar said that the Government had implemented several schemes for the welfare of people belonging to SC/ST communities. But the benefits of such schemes had not reached the targeted people, except for a few influential ones. Such anomalies could be eliminated by issuing smart cards.
Mr. Olekar said that the commission, in its interim report submitted to the Government in December last, urged the Government to reserve 27 per cent of the State budget to improve basic facilities for SC/ST families and extend financial assistance to the poor among these sections.
He said that the commission had urged the Government to take action to simplify the procedure while extending financial assistance from nationalised banks. It also requested that post-matric hostels be established in all taluk headquarters in the State to encourage SC/ST students to pursue studies after completing SSLC. It also suggested that the Government set up police stations in all municipal and town panchayat limits to check atrocities on people belonging to these sections.

- President Barack Obama took a few moments off his golf mini-vacation to sign a bill lifting the
federal debt limit. The Senate passed the bill late last week, following House
passage. It lets the Treasury borrow to pay the government's bills through March
15, 2015. The bill also restores benefits for military retirees that had been
reduced in the 2014 federal spending law. (Associated Press)
- First the National Security Agency wants your cell phone records. Now the
Homeland Security Department wants your license plate
number. Immigration and Customs Enforcement directorate is trying to give its
officers another tool. It's asking for commercial software that would give
officers access to the National License Plate Recognition Database. They would be
able to punch a plate number into a smart phone and see what comes up. The
solicitation in the Federal Register has already raised hackles of privacy and
civil liberties groups. (Federal News Radio)
- The acting head of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has resigned after six months on the
job. Fox News reports, John Sandweg is headed to the private sector. His
appointment was controversial because of his scant law enforcement background. The
chairman of the House Homeland Security Appropriations Subcommittee called the
appointment disrespectful to career officers. Earlier, Sandweg served as a top aid
to Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. He was criticized for allegedly
blocking freedom of information act requests for data on stimulus spending by DHS.
He was a criminal defense attorney before joining the administration. (Fox
- Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel has approved a wide-ranging review of the
military's nuclear enterprise. He is expanding the scope of a review
panel already underway. It's led by Madelyn Creedon, assistant defense
secretary for global strategic affairs, and Rear Adm. Peter Fanta, the Join
Staff's deputy director for resources and acquisition. They are supposed to finish
their work Apr. 30. Hagel wants the review to include personnel, training,
testing, command oversight, mission performance and investments. A second panel is
led by retired Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Larry Welch and retired Adm. John
Harvey. They'll look at personnel policies and management issues. They start March
3 and have 90 days to complete their review. (Defense Department)
- A lobbying group purporting to represent the elderly and retirees is pushing
the government to retain paper
checks. The Washington Post reports, the group is actually funded by the paper
industry. Consumers for Paper Options is a creature of the Envelope Manufacturers
Association. It's funded by that and other paper industry groups, as well as by
paper manufacturers. The group managed to get a provision into the 2014 spending
bill. It would require the Social Security Administration to return to paper for
annual benefits statements. (Washington Post)
- A group of professional diplomats wants to make sure that American ambassadors
have some qualifications before they head overseas. The American Foreign Service
Association says its pushing for new guidelines. The move comes as several Obama
administration diplomatic appointees flubbed their Senate hearings. They were all
identified as top campaign donors. Association President Robert Silverman says
Obama is not the first president to nominate unqualified people for
ambassadorships. (Associated Press)
- Energy Department investigators say they've found no radiation leaking to the
surface in New Mexico. They've been testing at a site where radiation was detected by underground monitors.
The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant is where the government stores low-grade nuclear
waste. A fire occurred there earlier this month. Energy officials say they don't
think that's what caused the underground radiation levels to rise. (Associated

How do y'all feel about your SO smoking weed? I feel like it's sort of inappropriate for parents to be smoking. Once in a while, sure. But I don't think it's right to be dependent on it. What do you all think?
I don't care as long as it's not around me or my son. I used to smoke a lot before I got pregnant. Quit when I found out, and smoked a handful of times after he was born. I haven't smoked in well over a year. Just not something I want to do anymore. My SO quit a few months ago as well. But I wouldn't see it as a problem if it was an after bedtime type of thing.
Emily- "Supermom"
love to A, mom to Boogie B
Bye Felicia.
My SO smokes a little right now with friends, but never when I am around, even before I was pregnant, not around me because i've had bad experiences with it and it's triggering. I would never allow him around the baby with it, and i'm hoping he'll slowly stop and be totally sober once the baby is born. I want to teach our child the importance of sobriety since my long battle with hard drugs and his/her dad doing drugs isn't really going to be the best influence.

Maybe you should do some research about marijuana's medical benefits.
Like what? that it hurts your lungs, more chance of depression and schitzophrinia, anxiety addiction? and the benefits it does have you can use simple over the counter medicines.
If my sons father ever purchased or used an illegal substance I would be pissed. Whether he did it around me or not wouldn't matter. If he's willing to risk getting in deep shit for fucking drugs I would tell him to go fly a kite.
I make good decisions, that's what I've been told, I will not be fearful, I'll be brave and bold.
