VT-86 'SabreHawks' or Training Squadron 86 is an aircraft training squadron of the United States Navy.
Training Squadron 86 is known by several names: TRARON EIGHT SIX, VT-86, or the Sabrehawks, a name derived from its history of flying the T-39D/G/N Sabreliner and the TA-4J Skyhawk II. The squadron was commissioned on the 5th of June 1972, under the operational control of Commander, Training Air Wing EIGHT (TRAWING 8) at Naval Air Station Glynco, Georgia. The mission of the new squadron was to conduct advanced Naval Flight Officer (NFO) training, which had previously been overseen by Naval Air Technical Training Center (NATTC) Glynco. The training was in four areas: Radar Intercept Officer, Basic Jet Navigation, Airborne Electronic Warfare and Airborne Tactical Data Systems. Training was conducted in aircraft previously assigned to and supported by NATTC Glynco until February 1973, when the squadron accepted 24 T-39 Sabreliner, 20 A-4C Skyhawk, 2 EC-121K Warning Star, and 12 TS-2A Tracker aircraft and approximately 350 enlisted maintenance and support personnel from NATTC and NAS Glynco. After receiving the aircraft and personnel, the squadron's mission was expanded to include flight support for Air Intercept Control and Ground Controlled Approach training functions.
Following a decision to close NAS Glynco and deactivate TRAWING 8, a Sabrehawk detachment was established at Naval Air Station Pensacola, Florida in March 1974. On 1 June 1974, the squadron commenced flight operations at Naval Air Station Pensacola under operational command of Commander, Training Air Wing SIX (TRAWING 6), training Naval Flight Officers for nearly all carrier-based aircraft.
Since its establishment, Training Squadron EIGHT SIX has received numerous awards to include multiple Meritorious Unit Commendations, the Training Effectiveness Award from the Chief of Naval Air Training (CNATRA), the CNATRA Retention Award, the Chief of Naval Operations Safety Award and 26 CNATRA Safety awards for accident-free operations. The squadron later amassed over 310,000 mishap-free flight hours and received the Admiral John H. Towers Safety Award and the Chief of Naval Education and Training (CNET) Shore/Technical Training Excellence Award.
In 1994, Training Squadron EIGHT SIX's role was expanded to include the training of U.S. Air Force Navigators/Combat Systems Officers (CSO) slated for eventual assignment as Weapon Systems Officers (WSO) in fighter and bomber aircraft. To date, the command has trained over 7,200 Naval Flight Officers for the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps and over 1,400 Navigators/Combat Systems Officers for the U.S. Air Force. The command has also historically provided training to international students. In 1996, VT-86's responsibilities also entailed training international officer students from Saudi Arabia, Italy, Singapore, and Germany; nearly 200 International Military Trainees have earned their wings through VT-86.
Today, VT-86 trains Naval Flight Officers in the U.S. Navy's T-39 Sabreliner and T-45C Goshawk. Retirement of the T-2C Buckeye, which preceded the T-45, was completed in September 2008.
Today, VT-86's mission is to provide advanced flight instruction to Student Naval Flight Officers (NFO) destined for strike fighter, bomber and electronic warfare aircraft. The squadron syllabus builds on that training previously received in the primary and intermediate NFO training squadrons, with additional emphasis on systems, instrument and radar navigation, radar intercept and attack, high-speed low-level flight, advanced aerial combat maneuvering and advanced communications.
Upon completion of VT-86's program, newly winged NFOs undergo further training at the respective Fleet Replacement Squadrons (FRS) for their new aircraft before reporting to their first operational Fleet squadron.
VT-86 has trained NFOs for many well-known retired aircraft such as the F-14 Tomcat, F-4 Phantom II, A-6 Intruder, RA-5C Vigilante, RRF-4B Phantom II, S-3 Viking, ES-3 Shadow, and the A-3 Skywarrior (whose variants included the KA-3, EKA-3, ERA-3, EA-3 and TA-3). In addition, VT-86 has provided training for the still serving E-2 Hawkeye until that mission was assumed by the E-2 Fleet Replacement Squadrons in the mid-1970s when NAS Glynco closed.
Today, new Naval Flight Officers graduating from VT-86 fly either the Navy F/A-18F Super Hornet, Marine Corps F/A-18D Hornet, Navy EA-18G Growler or the Marine Corps EA-6B Prowler.
German Air Force (Luftwaffe) and German Navy (Deutsche Marine) Navigators/WSOs fly either the Panavia Tornado Interdictor/Strike (IDS) or Electronic Combat/Reconnaissance (ECR) variants, while some German Air Force WSOs will also fly the F-4 Phantom II.
Italian Air Force Navigators/WSOs fly the Panavia Tornado IDS and ECR variants.
Royal Saudi Air Force WSOs fly the F-15S Strike Eagle and the Panavia Tornado IDS and Air Defence (ADV) variants.
Republic of Singapore Air Force WSOs fly the F-16D Fighting Falcon, but in addition, will also soon fly the F-15SG Strike Eagle.
Training squadron EIGHTY-SIX is staffed by approximately 80 U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps officers. Additional instructor pilots, instructor NFOs and instructor WSOs augment VT-86 and are sourced from the TRAWING 6 staff, Naval Aviation Schools Command staff, and part-time Navy Reserve pilots and Navy Reserve NFOs embedded in TRAWING 6's and VT-86's respective Reserve Component units. German and Italian Navigator/WSO instructors also support VT-86 training operations, although they are administratively assigned to colocated German Air Force (German Air Force) and Italian Air Force training squadrons at NAS Pensacola. With the ever-changing strategy of national defense for the United States and that of its NATO and Allied partners, VT-86 will continue to train Navy, Marine Corps and international officers in preparation for flying the world's most advanced and complex tactical combat aircraft.
VT-86 celebrated its 25th anniversary of mishap-free flying on April 8, 2002. Since its inception in June 1972, VT-86 has logged more than 332,000 mishap-free flight hours and has the distinction of maintaining the longest documented accident-free period of any active flying squadron in Naval Aviation history. This flight-hour total and cumulative time without mishaps also represents the longest mishap-free safety record in Naval Air Training Command history. Over the years, VT-86 has also earned twenty-seven Chief of Naval Air Training safety awards for accident-free operations and it also won the Admiral John H. Towers Safety Award in 1995.
The 25 years of mishap-free flying 332,000 hours breaks down to more than 1,100 hours per month.
On November 4, 2013, a T-45C assigned to VT-86 crashed at NAS Pensacola. The student and instructor were taken to a local hospital, but both survived.[1]
General information[edit]
Upon graduation from Basic Student NFO Training at Training Squadron TEN (VT-10) at NAS Pensacola, Navy and certain international students selected to fly large land-based aircraft such as the P-3C Orion, EP-3E Aries or the E-6B Mercury TACAMO aircraft will report to Specialized Undergraduate Navigator Training. After graduation from Intermediate NFO Training at VT-10, those Navy students and international selected to fly the E-2C/D Hawkeye will report to Airborne Early Warning Squadron ONE TWENTY (VAW-120) at Naval Station Norfolk/Chambers Field, Virginia. All other students report to VT-86.
- The squadron's radio callsign is ROKT (Rocket).

All Quiet Since Walker Recall Election, Says Huebsch
Did the recall election for governor last June put an end to the fighting in Madison?
Mike Huebsch thinks so. The state secretary of administration believes the heated battles of the last two years cooled down quickly, once Scott Walker won that special recall race.
Speaking on WIZM's La Crosse Talk, Huebsch said the next state budget should not have many surprises in it. Governor Walker is putting together that budget now, to be brought to the legislature in February. Huebsch expects training for new jobs to be a high priority for state government.

The C/AL Application Test Toolset for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 SP1 is now available on PartnerSource. This toolset helps NAV developers to quickly develop and run C/AL-based tests in their primary development environment.
The toolset includes sample tests to help you get started with C/AL test development, tools for test case management and execution, and useful test library functions, such as assert and database state restore.
These tools build on top of the Test Features released with Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 SP1.
Download from PartnerSource
Will you post this somewhere other than PartnerSource? By only putting it there you exclude all Navision developers that work for private companies or who do contract work. I would think it's in everyone's best interest to get better testing tools to all Navision developers, regardless of where they are employed :)
Regardless I am thrilled to see a focus on unit testing in Navision!
Everyone who works on NAV can get access to PartnerSource – they just have to register. Most commonly, people sign the Partner Registration Agreement (found on MS download) and check the "Consultant" category.
Hello, I have downloaded the objects, imported them into my DB, but I cannot see them in Object Designer. When I try to import them again, on the import worksheet all objects are as "Create", but when I try to import them, I end with error that objects already exists. ???
:oops: ,sorry, my fault... and don't ask me what happend... just simple stupid luser error...
But ... wonder why Version List, Date and Time are mising on the objects.
Thank you sgrubov, I was under the impression that only solution centers gained access to PartnerSource. Thanks for the link, and for clearing up that misconception :)
Hmm, I'm looking into the paperwork to get access to PartnerSource and from what I can tell is requires you to supply your "Microsoft Partnership Program" number. Doesn't this basically exclude individual Navision developers out there who are not working at solution centers? I have to say the "Microsoft Partnership Program" website is horribly uninformative with lots of PR speak and an unhelpful interface :(
I am sorry, PartnerSource is currently the place we put these kinds of tools.
Well access to Partnersource is tricky even for people who work in solution centers...not all of us have it... could the objects for the C/AL Test toolset be perhaps put on a public forum such as mibuso ?
Yes, please put them in a public repo (maybe codeplex or github or whatever) and give us a chance to contribute.
Hi Steffen, Can you give more info on what you would like to contribute? Tools, Test, Framework! – What are your thoughts?
Hi Søren,
we could contribute in nearly every possible way.
We have a own UnitTest-Framework, which is compatible with the "official" version but works even with NAV 5.01. We use it in automated build scenarios with git and TeamCity.
Another important thing is to provide UnitTests for the core NAV application. These tests should be shared.
we are still interested in participating in the test tool. Please make this tool open source and put it into a free No. Range. There are lot's of failing tests in our German test database and we would like to fix them.
Hi Steffen,
Are you referring to the new release?
Would you suggest using the range 50000 - 100000 or would it conflict with other purposes for that range?

Olympians sport belts from SD company
UPDATE: Curling team members actually wore their belts in competition.
About 40 fashion-forward Team USA athletes are wearing innovative belts designed by a new San Diego firm while they're in Sochi this month.
Kore Essentials partner Karl Kozak said it never occurred to him to style out Olympians with his Trakline belt, which is a $69 dress item, not a piece of athletic gear.
But Canada's curling team discovered Kore Essentials and its belts with patent-pending 16-gauge stainless steel buckles online and emailed to ask if the company would do just that.
"We said we should maybe ask the Americans first," Kozak said.
Kore Essentials
Established: May 2013
Founders: Karl Kozak, 46; Jason Lane, 44; Mauro Bove, 53
Products: Four "ultra-adjustable" men's belts with a hidden track system.
Cost: $69
What's next: Eight more designs, a women's line and a younger men's "YOLO" line
Where you can buy: Online at www.koreessential... or at La Moda on Kearny Villa Road
It wasn't hard to find the teams online, so he fired off an email and within days Kore Essentials had shipped belts to the U.S. men's bobsled, skeleton and curling teams. That was almost the remainder of their inventory until a new shipment arrives.
"We got flooded with requests," Kozak said.
In retrospect, he said, it makes sense for athletes to be interested in a belt like his. Its specially designed hidden track system with 40 sizing positions in quarter-inch increments makes it eight times more adjustable than traditional hole-and-post belts. That's great news for athletes, whose size and weight can fluctuate dramatically throughout the day. The track system also protects the full-grain leather from stretching.
The belts would have retailed for $3,000, Kozak said, but were free for the athletes. In exchange, Kore Essentials gets potential social media buzz around Olympians wearing a belt that has only been on the market since the company raised $316,000 on Kickstarter in May.
That was about 21 times its pledge goal of $15,000, making it one of the most successful fashion campaigns in Kickstarter's history and landing Kore Essentials on Entrepreneur's first-ever list of top 100 Crowdfunded Companies.
Ambush marketing
Although the Olympic giveaway might seem a bit unconventional, it is probably a smart investment, said Miro Copic, a marketing professor at San Diego State University. If nothing else, it will likely spark a conversation about how unusual the belt is, and how strange that athletes are the ones modeling it. But companies often look for ways to get celebrity endorsements, he said, or at least product placement in those celebrities' lives. It could also get Kore Essentials noticed in other markets.
Copic compared the so-called ambush marketing move to four cases of Frito-Lay Baken-ets pork rinds he sent to former President George H. W. Bush when he worked at the company in the late 80s. Bizarre and humorous though it might have seemed, the shipment got the division an endorsement and a big climb in sales.
"This is kind of a time-honored tradition for companies trying to elevate their presence when they have small budgets," he said. "We had way fewer tools than, say, Dorito's, so something as high-profile as that adds punch."

Maine School Kids Release Classroom-Raised Trout Into the Wild
Poland Spring Education Coordinator
Students begin by learning to raise baby trout in incubator tanks in their classroom. This hands-on activity is integrated into lessons about water quality, ecosystems, habitat protection and data collection. The project culminates when students release the fish that they have raised into a local stream.
Trout in the Classroom was originally developed by the Portland Water District, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Trout Unlimited and the Atlantic Salmon Federation. McBean became interested in the idea following a conversation with

When we go on excursions and trips, we have lists of places to go, things to do and activities to enjoy. So, it should come as no surprise what when my friends and I escaped with my kids to Cape Cod for a weekend last year, we planned everything -- right down to the snacks.

Pune: The next time if you are caught talking on mobile phone while riding or driving, be prepared to get your driving licence suspended for a month.
The Pune city traffic police have decided to tighten the screws on two-wheeler riders and motorists who talk on cellphones while driving and put the lives of other commuters at risk.
Deputy commissioner of police (traffic) Vishwas Pandhare said that the driving licences of those caught talking on mobile phones while driving will be suspended for 30 days.
The traffic police have cited this negligent attitude of drivers as one of the major reasons for the increasing number of road accidents in the city. They said that speaking on mobile phones does not only distract the drivers' attention but also create nuisance and pose danger to others driving on the road.
Pandhare said that people do not realise that talking on mobile phones while driving could be dangerous to themselves as well as others. He said that anyone talking on mobile phones while driving face strict action in other countries.
"During the special drive, we will take strict action against traffic violators so that people will be forced to think twice before breaking traffic rules," he added.
Figure this
* At least 1,000 people have been penalised in the past three months
* More than 2,900 were caught taking on mobile phones in 2013
* Most of the offenders fall in the age group of 20 and 35 years
For violators
* The licence of the offender will be seized on the spot and s/he will have to appear in the court
* The offender will have to pay the fine at the Pune RTO after which his/her licence will be suspended

A 67-year-old man has been indicted by the Scioto County grand jury on multiple charges involving two women. Mansour Masoud Alhweity, of Saudi Arabia, was indicted on the charges of kidnapping, abduction, gross sexual imposition, sexual imposition, and aggravated burglary.
In the case filed in Scioto County Common Pleas Court on Jan. 29, one charge states: "The jurors of the grand jury of the state of Ohio, within and for the body of the county aforesaid, on their oaths, in the name and by the authority of the state of Ohio, do find and present that on or about the 18th day of January, 2014, at Scioto County, Ohio, Mansour Masoud Alhweity did have sexual contact with another (alleged female victim number 1) who was not his spouse, when the offender purposely compelled the other person to submit by force or threat of force." The charge goes on to say Alhweity - "did by force, threat, or deception, purposely remove (alleged female victim number 1) from the place where she is found or restrain the liberty of the other person to facilitate the commission of any felony or flight thereafter."
The first charge was that of gross sexual imposition, while the second narrative was in reference to the charge of kidnapping. In that case, Alhweity faces charges of aggravated burglary, gross sexual imposition and kidnapping.
Another narrative said on the Jan. 16, 2014, Alhweity - "did have sexual contact with another (alleged female victim number 2) not the spouse of the offender, when the offender knew that the sexual contact was offensive to the other person or was reckless in that regard." That narrative was for a sexual imposition charge.
A narrative also said Alhweity - "did without privilege to do so, and with a sexual motivation knowingly by force or threat, restrain the liberty of another person (alleged female victim number 2) under circumstances that create a risk of physical harm to the victim or place the other person in fear." That narrative was for the charge of abduction. In that case the charges included sexual imposition and abduction.
At least one of those incidents, according to a report from the Shawnee State University Security Department (Police Department), occurred at Campus View Residence Hall at Shawnee State University. According to the report, Alhweity was arrested at around 4:40 p.m. on Jan. 18, 2014, after a female student told Shawnee State University Police Sergeant Jon Peters that the suspect was already in the entry area of the Campus View Residence Hall when she arrived. She said when she entered her room the suspect followed. She told police she was afraid and didn't know what to do. The victim said the two ended up speaking and the suspect started kissing, hugging and touching the victim in an unwanted matter. She told Peters she was able to compel the suspect to leave, but he returned about an hour later and was arrested at that time.
The other incident, which occurred first, but was reported last, also allegedly occurred in the vicinity of SSU.
Portsmouth Municipal Court Judge Steven Mowery set Alhweity's bond at $75,000 due to the nature of the allegations and because the court had been unable to locate his passport. It turned out that passport was in possession of law enforcement. The court received Alhweity's passport at his court appearance. A bail-bond company in Dayton posted the bond, but according to Scioto County Prosecutor Mark Kuhn, Alhweity has been returned to jail after being arrested on the indictment. Kuhn said Alweity was arrested on Jan. 30.
His hearing, scheduled for Wednesday was postponed because his legal representatives were unable to appear because of the weather, Kuhn said. Alwheity is represented by Candace Christine Crouse and Martin Stanley Pinales, while assistant prosecutor Matthew Aaron Wisecup is representing the state.

Gianfranco Zola insists he will have final say on all transfers at West Ham United.
The Italian succeeds Alan Curbishley who resigned last week after claiming the Hammers board were selling players over his head.
But when asked who buys and sells the players, Zola said: "Me! First I'll see the team, see who they are, the make a consideration if something is to be done."
Zola, 42, also insisted he will have no problems working with director of football and compatriot Gianluca Nani.
The former Chelsea star said: "We are a team, GN and the board are part of the team. Once I see how the team is we make plans, whether to buy or sell.
"I have no problem working with a technical director. My job is working on the pitch.
"I'll develop the players, then I'll report to the technical director. He's working with me, not against me. We'll do what's good for the club."

A Closer Look at Russia's "Hybrid War"
Author: Michael Kofman, Matthew Rojansky
Publisher: Kennan Institute
This paper questions the belief that hybrid warfare, as exemplified by Russia's annexation of Crimea and its subsequent destabilization of Eastern Ukraine, represents a new model for conflict in Europe's borderlands. More on «A Closer Look at Russia's "Hybrid War"»

Re: rammed:by the customs & border patrol
I've never been boarded by the Coasties, but when lobstering in the Florida Keys we have been regularly "inspected" by the "Grouper Troopers" (Florida Fish and Game). They have always been polite and professional. They have an enormous responsibility and deal with people all day who are lots less than professional or even polite (and some are drunk too). The stories I hear from folks about getting around the bag limits and the things they do to our natural resources always makes me offer the officers a cold water and my warm regards. As long as there is a percentage of the population who will abuse our shared natural resources to the point that they will destroy it, we as a community have to police them. But we cannot police them without allowing the police to watch us as well.

The finding of SPARC protein in pancreatic cancer patients, also described by other investigators, was the basis for this phase I clinical trial that Von Hoff presented at AACR.
Chemotherapy often means combining more than one drug, and we do not want to just take the next thing off the shelf. We want to know as much about a tumor as possible going in, Von Hoff said.
Researchers reported on the first 20 patients of what will eventually be a 42-patient trial.
This was a phase I trial, and phase I trials are usually designed to test safety, hoping it will also determine efficacy. The fact that we saw this kind of activity in a phase I trial is dramatic, Von Hoff said.
The rationale behind the combination of Gemcitabine plus Abraxane was based on careful science and was designed and executed by some of the leading experts in pancreas cancer in the world. While the data is preliminary and longer follow-up will be important, the biochemical and radiographic responses look very encouraging, says Dr. Laheru of Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center.

PORTLAND -- The KGW Great Food Drive is in full swing and today it got a big boost.
Kettle Brand donated 60,000 pounds of potatoes to the Oregon Food Bank.
They're highly nutritious and can be made in a number of ways so it's just a fabulous donation, said Laura Golino de Lovato of the Oregon Food Bank.
The KGW Great Food Drive set a goal of 600,000 pounds of food collected by the end of the month. Much of the food will end up at places like Snowcap Community Charities in Southeast Portland.
Volunteer Todd Williams has been at Snowcap for four years.
It's a good feeling when you see someone go out the door and they've got a bag of groceries, Williams said.
If you'd like to help the KGW Great Food Drive, all you have to do is buy Tillamook Cheese, or donate cash at any US Bank branch.
If you donate ten cans of food at area Toyota dealership you'll get ten dollars off parts or service.

"Ancient Greece is an excellent text. The authors' shared opinion that ancient Greece is 'one of the most improbable success stories in all of world history' unfolds in a happy combination of the traditional detail of familiar names and events along with a tale of the nameless many--even slaves, women, children, and non-Greeks." --Carol Thomas, Professor of History, University of Washington and President of the Association of Ancient Historians
"My students and I have been waiting for such a clear and fluid reconstruction of Greek history--an unusually smooth blend of political, social, and cultural history.

The Hyberabad Police here have registered an FIR against YSR Congress chief YS Jaganmohan Reddy for allegedly disrespecting the national anthem.
Based on a private complaint lodged by one advocate Janardhan Goud, a local court had earlier issued directions to the Saroornagar Police to investigate the matter.
After the investigation, a case was recently registered against Jaganmohan under relevant sections of the Prevention of Insults to National Honour Act, a police officer said on Friday.
The complainant had earlier accused Jaganmohan of insulting the national anthem by not properly singing it at one of the Samaikyandhra (United Andhra Pradesh) meetings held recently.

Titan Alliance has disbanded.
- Back To:

And Stormbluff Isle guilds are mass transferring to Jade Quarry.
Everyone jump on the bandwagon while you still can.
From: CJayC | Posted: 6/3/2003
GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site.
Who are they that I should care?
"And at what point did you decide to stay on the forums? I don't get that mentality but some people don't have better things to do." - Nofoundation.
EDIT: as in, "Why did they disband?"
Why is everyone keen on being a Spy / Sniper?
Because their handles are either xXxKwIkSkOpExXx or xXxD4rkS4Suk3xXx -- UrCa1988
They claim they disbanded due to the queue times coinciding with CND leaving. CND claims to have left GW2 because they were "bored".
Outsider observations from several sources, including a few of my own:
1. CND left because they, by reputation, are "early leavers". They rush in an MMO, get to max level and powergame quickly, then bail soon after release. They have also been labelled a "PvE guild", which may or may not be true. CND originally organized Titan Alliance. Even though the alliance should be fine without them, this is one piece.
Note: their "boredom" rationale is semi-believable. Over the past few weeks I have seen fewer and fewer CND in WvW across the board. Due to this observation, I give credence to the "CND is a PvE guild that powergamed GW2 early, and leaves" line of thought.
2. JQ and ET are the two servers that are most dedicated to taking down HOD. HOD's most difficult fight was back when JQ and ET were matched against them. Since that time, JQ has become much, much more capable, both in timezone coverage and organization. JQ alone, in the last matchup, kept a solid pace with HOD while fighting SBI around the clock. Note: SBI has a trend to "fight for second place", which is perfectly legitimate, but it secures HOD's winning position.
This week's matchup will likely be HOD v JQ v ET. It is more likely than ever that HOD will lose this matchup. It will be the most difficult matchup they have faced since, unlike SBI, ET and JQ are both willing to gun for HOD.
I completely expect HOD to hold 0 objectives in one or more borderlands during active JQ/ET timezones, and have a very difficult time holding Stonemist.
So. TA's gettin' while the gettin's good. They came into GW2 with a very impressive degree of pre-planning and organization, and dominated the first few days, and first few weeks of WvW. And so they call it quits before they lose.
3. It is perfectly legitimate to disband the alliance and/or transfer due to queues and ANet's refusal to this date of removing free server transfers. However, their timing is hilarious. Really, it is. Basically:
a) For queue reasons, I completely expected them to transfer earlier.
b) For competitive reasons, I expect them to transfer/disband later.
At this point, it's basically a ***** move with them taking the "Titan Alliance" name too seriously and using queues as an excuse.
Who are they and why should I care?
Same reaction here... "So what?"
Nobody gives a crap about your guild.
- My vision is augmented
Some people care about the goings-on of WvW ;-).
So the reason to transfer worlds is because of drama queens?
I understand why it disbanded.
The Titan Alliance can be up to it's name if it was in a competitive-concept rpg. In gw2, everyone is regarded as equal regardless or level or gear. It's the most balance and fair mmo out of all. No class are better than the other. It means, no single guild or alliance can be dominated twice in a row. That's why they can't shine in gw2. No matter how much they work hard in-game, it's pure luck and skills that matters in gw2 pvp because everyone is "too equal regardless of hardwork and hardcoreness".

Pay-for-performance is a concept nearly everyone understands, but a group of Bingham County educators say they will never qualify.
They are those who teach and guide students at Independence Alternative High School, which serves all five districts in the county.
"People in the community are under the impression that good teachers will be rewarded" under the state's pay-for-performance or merit pay law," said Dan Grimes, who teaches government at IAHS. "But that's not true."
The five siblings from Blackfoot's Kesler family were all smiles and their camaraderie and enthusiasm was evident over the airwaves as they took on the Iantello family from Woodstock, Ga., on the popular game show Family Feud Monday afternoon on KPVI (Channel 6).
BLACKFOOT — The Bingham County Senior Center "Meals on Wheels" program is looking for volunteer drivers to deliver meals to homebound senior citizens in the area on Mondays and Tuesdays from approximately 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
Pam Beus, executive director of the senior center, said she believes that one of the best offerings of the senior center is the meals that are provided at the center and through "Meals on Wheels."
"Volunteer drivers are provided with a vehicle and gas," Beus noted. "All that is donated is time."

Big K.R.I.T.
"Just Touched Down"
Jay-Z made it a hot line on 2002's The Blueprint 2—"All Around The World," to be specific—and now Mississippi's Big K.R.I.T. makes it a hawt song, buoyed by an especially sumptuous Bobby Womack sample, post-UGK gumption, and a desire to prove himself. Dude just kills it.
"Toothnest (for Chris Habib)"
If this song were a movie scene, it would be that part near the end of The Abyss where the mysterious alien intelligence reveals itself, sorta, welcoming should-be-goner Ed Harris into a breathable atmosphere at the ocean's bottom. Seriously, it's just that beautiful.
Imagine Boredoms trying and failing over and over again to reinterpret the Jackass theme, and you're pretty much there. There, as it turns out, isn't a bad place to be.
Liz Phair
Liz, Liz, Liz. Is this what it's come to? A castoff album of pomo doodles and zeitgeist-y abominations (Funstyle) where you're at your best when you're at your most indifferently conventional, re-writing Oasis's "Don't Look Back In Anger" as a weak grass-is-greener-on-the-other-side dialogue?
Vintage first-wave indie-rock bubble gum with hair, asphalt, and dirt ground in—which is why chewing gum you found on the soles of the Chucks Uncle Pete wore to Lollapalooza in 1995 isn't exactly a capital idea.

While a number of high-profile games are slated to hit the PlayStation 3, a fair number of them come from known franchises, such as Gran Turismo, Tekken, Killzone, and Devil May Cry. However, a dark horse emerged at the Game Developers Conference earlier this year when an original game came from nowhere and plopped its happy burlap self high on the list of anticipated PS3 games. LittleBigPlanet from UK developer Media Molecule is a unique game for the PlayStation 3 that's equal parts developer tool and sandbox, wrapped in a fuzzy package that can't help but make you smile when you see it. At Sony's recent press event, we had the chance to get our hands on a demo version of the game and bounce around in the same level that was shown at GDC. While nothing new was shown, the playable demo was effective at showing off the game's infectious charm.
The demo opened up just as it did during Sony's GDC keynote address. A lone burlap doll stood against a plain backdrop of fabric. The demo presenter ran us through the simple controls that you'll use to guide your virtual burlap dude through the level before we started the adventure. The left analog stick will obviously let you move your little guy anywhere you like. The X or L1 button will let you jump. The circle button lets you interact with certain items in the world, which on this occasion meant using the rocket packs. The R1 button will let you grab an object, allowing you to hold on to small items or hang on to larger ones. Depending on the size of the item, you can carry or pull it if needed. Larger items will require teamwork, such as several of your friends grabbing and pulling as well. Holding down R2 or L2 will let you use the left and right analog stick to control your mini-me's arms.
Once you start getting the hang of it, you can even choose to smack your friends around via Media Molecule's Rag Doll Kung Fu. If you have dramatic urges, you can use the D pad to cycle among four different facial expressions: happy, sad, angry, or mopey. Speaking of your face, you can use the Sixaxis controller's motions to move your character's head. Finally, the square button calls up the "pop it" menu which, as has been shown in the first trailer for the game, lets you hop into a menu where you can pull different items that you can sticker the world with or physically drop into your surroundings. Unfortunately, our demo presenter said that there would be no popping of anything in our demo because the feature wasn't quite ready for primetime.
Once the basics were sorted, we went further into the level with our demo presenter and picked up two other buddies. As before, our two companions spawned as soon as the PS3 controllers were picked up. The run through the level was through the same path shown in the GDC video, although collecting sponge--the material you use to power the pop-it feature--didn't really factor in as much despite the fact that it was strewn throughout the level. The action was fun and goofy, forcing teamwork or creative solutions to overcome the obstacles.
The visuals in the game were exactly like what's been seen before. They were a cool mix of funky design and photorealistic items. The levels were, as has been shown, laid out in a 2D plane that you can go in and out of to go up platforms or interact with other items, such as the aforementioned jet packs.
We have to say that we're quite taken with the look and promise of LittleBigPlanet. The game promises to be an enjoyable experience that will be shaped by your imagination. As we continue into this generation of consoles with next-generation experiences all too often amounting to conventional game experiences that look better than what we played on the last set of boxes, there's something to be said for a unique experience that can't be labeled. If LittleBigPlanet can really deliver that and provide a conduit for gamers to create and share content, it could be something truly special. Look for more on LittleBigPlanet in the months to come.

Apple apologized Wednesday after the online iPhone 4 ordering system collapsed under the stress of taking 600,000 pre-orders for the launch date next Thursday, a record one-day sale for the company and 10 times the number of orders it received last year for the iPhone 3GS. AT&T said it had temporarily suspended taking any new orders.

Yesterday's post identified some of the differences between the lists of securities in the California Corporate Securities Law and the federal Securities Act of 1933. One difference that I did not mention was California's explicit statement that all of the listed items "are securities whether or not evidenced by a written document".
This may seem to be an academic point, but the wont of a writing has saved at least one fortunate soul from the gaol. In Thomas v. State, 65 S.W.3d 38 (Tex. Crim. App. 2001), a Texas jury convicted a defendant of securities fraud in connection with the offer and sale of an "evidence of indebtedness". On appeal, the defendant argued that an "evidence of indebtedness" must be in writing and the appellate courts agreed.
The drafters of the 2002 revisions of the Uniform Securities Act were cognizant of this issue and amended the definition of "security" in Section 102(28) to include "both a certificated and an uncertificated security". According to the official comment, this change was intended "to indicate that the term is intended to apply whether or not a security is evidenced by a writing."
Hogamous, Higamous
Habemus, Habemas?
With the announcement of the election of a new pope yesterday, I noted several stories whose writers seemed to have forgotten their High School Latin. For example, the Christian Science Monitor, began this story with "Habemas papam". The British paper, The Independent, also made the same mistake in this story. The correct spelling is "habemus". In Latin, verbs are conjugated. The conjugations provide key information on person, number, tense, mood and voice. Habemus is in the first person, plural, present tense, indicative mood, active voice. "Habemas" is gibberish.

Weather Services International: Relatively Mild and Wet Period Expected in Western Europe
Climate models and ocean temperature patterns suggest a general lack of North Atlantic blocking during late Autumn and early Winter.
Andover, MA (PRWEB) September 24, 2012
WSI (Weather Services International) expects temperatures for the upcoming period (October-December) to average slightly higher than normal across most regions, with the exception of parts of far southeastern Europe.
"As we head further into autumn, trends in the climate models are for a generally mild and wet period across western Europe, with any below-normal temperatures confined to parts of southern and eastern Europe," said Dr. Todd Crawford, WSI Chief Meteorologist. "Further, climate models are suggesting a lack of significant North Atlantic blocking (negative phase of the North Atlantic Oscillation, or NAO) as we head deeper into autumn. While it is still a few weeks too early to issue a proper winter forecast, our preliminary analysis suggests that blocking (and associated cold weather) may be fairly rare, especially early in the winter."
In October, WSI forecasts:
Nordic Region* — Warmer than normal
UK* — Warmer than normal
Northern Mainland* — Warmer than normal
Southern Mainland* — Cooler than normal
In November, WSI forecasts:
Nordic Region — Warmer than normal
UK — Warmer than normal
Northern Mainland — Warmer than normal
Southern Mainland — Warmer than normal
In December, WSI forecasts:
Nordic Region — Warmer than normal
UK — Warmer than normal
Northern Mainland — Warmer than normal
Southern Mainland — Warmer than normal
WSI, providing customized weather information to energy traders, will issue its next seasonal outlook, including the late autumn and early winter forecast, on 22 October.
