I am sure the fan-kids of this generation enjoys Wrestlemania and wrestling pretty much the same way we did when we were kids. It's just us getting older and more cynical. I also believed in Santa Claus, put playing cards on my bikes wheels to persuade myself i was riding a motorcycle, and I thought Weird Al was the funniest person alive. Oh well...
or "facing" them. And kids are being exposed to this, liking it, then suddenly told, "It's all a work, you know it, we know it, the world knows it" right there from the same source.
CM Punk's promo in 2011 really made us happy and blew our funky minds, but probably really warped the kids' fragile little minds. He had a lot of truth in it.
This might be the best post I've ever seen on here.
(And don't even get me started on "superstars.")
I used to get mad at the product because i felt that it refused to grow up with me. I started watching in the days of the ultimate warrior and knew i was a life long fan when i was introduced to the heart break kid. The attitude era mirrored my adolesence in middle school but after that it started seeming more and more to me like i was out growing it and that bothered me because i really love pro wrestling, especially the wwe. And this disgruntlement followed me until this years elimination chamber. While it was an ok ppv and my highlight being swaggers victory, i couldnt help but watch my 6 year old daughters reactions to the show more so than the show itself. She was hanging on every word in every promo. Every move came off devistating to her. Thats when it all sprt of clicked for me. I got it. Yes im out growing the product but thats my fault, not theirs. I got hung up on who is getting pushed amd who isnt, backstage politics amd general bs that she didnt know about. So my daughter actually taught me something and ive been viewing the product differently since. Yes, i still keep up with all the backstage bs but i just decided not to give a shit about it anymore and just watch the program and enjoy it fpr what it is. Essentially, watching it as a kid again. And i havent been this happy with what im seeing in a long time.
WrestleMania 25 was "this generation". I enjoyed it.
WrestleMania 26 was "this generation". I enjoyed it.
WrestleMania 27 was "this generation". I enjoyed it.
WrestleMania 28 was "this generation". I enjoyed it.
I've looked forward to and enjoyed every WrestleMania of the PG Era so far...
Except this one.
This one looks like it's going to suck.


text: The StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm wiki last edited by Blanes on 07/27/14 08:26AM View full history OverviewThe Zerg SwarmStarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm is the second chapter in the StarCraft II trilogy. Heart of the Swarm focuses on the bestial, vicious Zerg collective, known as the Swarm. Swarm chronologically comes after StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, the Terran chapter, and before StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void, the Protoss chapter.The StarCraft II "trilogy" was announced at Blizzcon 2008 and was met with a mostly positive response, but negative reactions on appeared on Internet forums. Some fans accused Blizzard of splitting up the three campaigns into different product releases so they could charge more money for each than for a single amalgamated product. Blizzard responded by clarifying the decision to split the campaign into three separate products was to ensure a more complete and epic story, with each of the campaigns being roughly equal in length to the total length of the three campaigns in the original StarCraft. Whether this is true or not remains to be seen. With Heart of the Swarm being the second installment in the trilogy, it is believed development was not started until the completion of Wings of Liberty.As players level up Kerrigan through missions, new skills can be unlocked and old skills augmented.The Heart of the Swarm campaign centers around Sarah Kerrigan, the self-styled "Queen of Blades". Kerrigan is a former Terran Ghost, mutated and infested into a powerful Zerg/Human hybrid, who is fighting to maintain and expand her control over the recently divided Zerg Swarm after being stripped of her powers at the end of Wings of Liberty, when she was purified through the use of a Xel'Naga artifact. Although Kerrigan is still a Zerg/Human hybrid, she has lost much of her former powers including the ability to control all Zerg everywhere with a thought. Nevertheless Kerrigan will have to regain her powers to live up to the Overmind's prophecy that only she, as leader of the Swarm, can stop the "Dark Voice" character from wiping out the Terrans, the Protoss, and the Zerg. The campaign has you progressing through missions to return Kerrigan to a semblance of her original strength using mutations and 'Kerrigan upgrades', as she fights to regain control of the Swarm.Heart of the Swarm was released on March 12, 2013. Wings of Liberty, the Terran chapter, is the "core" StarCraft II, and that Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void will be equivalent to expansion packs, rather than standalone releases. It is not possible to play the Zerg or Protoss campaigns without having already purchased the base Terran campaign.MultiplayerA player receiving experience points and rewards after a match.Blizzard have expanded on the successful Wings of Liberty multiplayer with new features and changes. Primarily, new units (listed below), adjustments to existing units, and multiplayer maps, alongside an XP system which rewards players for successful online play with new user portraits, unit and structure skins and unit animations (/dance).The learning curve for new players and general matchmaking system was also changed with a better training mode and an additional 'unranked' multiplayer option. Heart of the Swarm introduced a seperate online ladder for online play, which exists seperately and alongside the Wings of Liberty ladder.New Multiplayer UnitsTerranHellbat – Built at the factory, the Hellbat is an upgraded version of the Hellion. Once unlocked, Hellions may freely transform into Hellbats and Hellbats into Hellions. Visually this transformation turns the normally wheeled Helllion into a mech style unit with large shields and a single flame nozzle. The transformation sacrifices the great speed of the Hellion for greatly increased durability and a much wider (but shorter) attack. It was introduced to help Terran players counter massed melee units such as the Zergling or Zealot.Widow Mine – The Widow Mine is an evolution of the Spider Mine from the original StarCraft. It can be controlled like other units in the game instead of being permanently rooted in the ground like the Spider Mine. It has some other differences in comparison to the old Spider Mine such as being produced to the factory instead of laid by a Vulture. It also has a manual detonation mode similar to Banelings.ProtossMothership Core – The Mothership Core is, as its name implies, the "core" of a Mothership. It is produced in the early game and fills a support/defensive role that the Protoss army was in dire need of. The Mothership Core can then be upgraded into the full Mothership once a player has advanced far enough up the Protoss tech tree.Tempest – The Tempest is a long-range aerial siege unit meant to counter threats such as the Siege Tank and Brood Lord. Its attack is very slow but has incredible range and damage. A single Tempest is very vulnerable but if a critical mass can be achieved it becomes a very powerful unit.Oracle – The Oracle is an aerial support spell-caster that is built from the Stargate. It specializes in harassing workers using the "Pulsar Beam" ability which requires energy. It has the "Envision" ability which allows it to detect cloaked units for 60 seconds, allowing Protoss players to open Stargate tech without the fear of losing to Banshee and Dark Templar rushes. It also has the "Revelation" ability which forces enemy units and buildings to provide vision.ZergViper – The Viper is an aerial support spell-caster that specializes in neutralizing enemy ranged units. It has two main abilities. The first is Blinding Cloud, which is very similar to Dark Swarm which was an ability that the Defiler had in the original StarCraft. The second is the ability to "abduct" units and pull them towards the Viper. Abduct is very useful for picking off powerful enemy units such as the Protoss Immortal.Swarm Host – The Swarm Host is a ground unit that has similarities to Brood Lords and Carriers. It does not attack directly, it instead burrows underground and releases waves of Locusts which are similar to Broodlings. The Swarm Host will continually produce Locusts while it is burrowed.Battle.net ChangesThe updated main screen in Heart of the Swarm, featuring a newly human Kerrigan. Along with the new campaign and multiplayer units, Blizzard has added many new features to the Battle.net platform. The most obvious change made to Battle.net is the updated user interface in both Heart of the Swarm and Wings of Liberty. In the previous iteration of the interface, players needed to navigate through 2-3 different screens to access the game mode they wished to play. Blizzard has streamlined the UI so that all major game modes can be accessed with a single click.Clans and GroupsIn Heart of the Swarm, the chat channels have been removed in lieu of the new Clans and Groups system. Clans allow for the player to have a tag next to their name, as well as a private chat channel for members. Groups also feature a chat channel, and those can be set to private or public. Clans have a 50 player limit, while Groups have a near unlimited max - you can also join as many groups as you choose.

Appalling photos reveal lemur carnage in Madagascar [warning: graphic images]
Rhett A. Butler, wildmadagascar.org
August 20, 2009
As governance collapses and aid disappears, commercial poaching emerges
Update 13:00 PDT
In the aftermath of a March coup that saw Madagascar's president replaced at gunpoint by the capital city's mayor, Madagascar's reserves — especially in the northern part of the country — were ravaged by illegal loggers. Armed bands, financed by foreign timber traders, went into Marojejy and Masoala national parks, harvesting valuable hardwoods including rosewood and ebonies. Without support from the central government — or international agencies that pulled aid following the coup — there was no one to stop the carnage. But now it emerges that timber wasn't the only target.
"Withdrawal of international support has weakened environmental governance in the country and has created the perfect conditions for criminals to profit from the situation," said Conservation International in a statement. "Since March 2009, there have been a set of environmental catastrophes in one of the world's most important countries for biodiversity conservation ranging from the illegal felling of trees in national parks for export to Asia, collection of animals for the pet trade, and now the hunting of lemurs for bushmeat, the first evidence we have had of this since the coup."
Russ Mittermeier, CI President and one of the world's leading experts on lemurs, said the illegal activities are directly jeopardizing the long-term well-being of people living around the protected areas.
"What is happening to the biodiversity of Madagascar is truly appalling, and the slaughter for these delightful, gentle, and unique animals is simply unacceptable. And it is not for subsistence, but rather to serve what is certainly a "luxury" market in restaurants of larger towns in the region. More than anything else, these poachers are killing the goose that laid the golden egg, wiping out the very animals that people most want to see, and undercutting the country and especially local communities by robbing them of future ecotourism revenue."
Mittermeier said that aid needs to resume as soon as possible.
"In the last week Madagascar has taken important steps towards resolving its political crisis and move towards the restoration of democracy," he said, noting an accord signed last week between the former president and the acting president. "It is counterproductive of the international donor community to continue denying conservation and development funding because this only encourages poor governance of the country's natural resources. The world community must act now to support the dedicated local wildlife authorities who are battling to prevent this globally important resource from being destroyed."
"This is what happens when the global community attempts to punish a nation's leaders by cutting virtually all aid. We need to rethink the global response to political upheavals in the future, and not to place the greatest burden on those most in need."
International: Ask your Congressman or government representative to push for resumption of aid to conservation agencies working in affected areas of Madagascar. Directly support the local NGOs like Fanamby.
Within Madagascar: Write letters to local newspapers and make calls to radio shows demanding the government take action. Support local NGOs like Fanamby
For reference, below is a 2005 article about lemur hunting in Madagascar
Lemur hunting persists in Madagascar, rare primates fall victim to hunger
Rhett Butler
July 17, 2005
Armand stares down at the trap made from sticks and ropes in the rainforest of Masoala. "For carnivores," he says.
In these forests you'll find about 50% of Madagascar's species, despite their making up less than 2% of its land mass. Given the incredible biological richness the Indian Ocean island, finding these traps is particularly sobering. It reminds us that no matter how much land is protected in Madagascar the only way to preserve its rare and unusual species is to ensure that conservation provides immediate and ongoing benefits for local people.
Madagascar, a land of staggering biodiversity
A little larger than California, Madagascar is the world's fourth largest island. Madagascar has been isolated from mainland Africa for about 160 million years and around 80% of its native flora and fauna are unique to the island. While Madagascar is best known for its lemurs it also is home to a number of other evolutionary peculiarities from the streaked tenrec, a spiny yellow and black insectivore that resembles a miniature hedgehog and makes grinding-chirping noises when threatened, to the fossa, a carnivorous mammal that looks like a cross between a puma and a dog but is closely related to the mongoose. Madagascar also has more than half the world's chameleon species, neon green day geckos, three times as many kinds of palm trees as mainland Africa, and an entire ecosystem consisting only of endemic spiny plants. Needless to say, Madagascar's flora and fauna make it one of the most biologically important places on Earth.
Lemurs are a key component in Madagascar's biodiversity. Lemurs belong to a group of primates known as prosimians that were once distributed worldwide but today have been largely replaced by monkeys. It is only because of Madagascar's isolation that lemurs have managed to survive and flourish. Currently more than 100 kinds of lemurs are recognized by scientists, a number that has grown in recent years with the discovery of several new species including two this year. Despite these findings, Madagascar's lemur diversity is considerably poorer than when humans first set foot on the island about 2000 years ago. Since then, the island's largest lemurs species have been hunted to extinction and suffered from habitat loss induced by climate change and human activities (especially land-clearing with fire).
Species under threat
According to Masoala - The Eye of the Forest, a book published by the Zurich Zoo, in the rainforest of Masoala locals hunt with shotguns or use traps known as laly, described as "a cleared strip of forest 5m wide by 50m or more in length with snares set on one or two branches that are left for the lemurs to cross."
In the region around Isalo National Park, a sandstone massif in southeastern Madagascar, a commonly seen lemur called Verreaux's sifaka is known as sifaka-bilany or "sifaka of the cooking pot" reflecting the culinary interests in this species among some Malagasy tribes and immigrants to the area. Even in areas were lemurs are protected by tradition, they may be poached by recent migrants from other parts of the island, who do not hold the same beliefs and taboos.
Dylan Lossie, a traveler from the Netherlands, and his guide Theo were recently shocked to discover a number of lemur traps in Ankarana Special Reserve, a protected area is known for its limestone karst pinnacles called tsingy along with its extensive cave system and network of underground rivers. Ankarana may have the highest density of primates of any forest in the world according to Bradt's Madagascar Wildlife.
"We found many lemur traps hidden in the forest," reports Lossie. "These were built with long trunks forming a half circle and baited with food to capture lemurs. We also came across marking points placed under the lepilemur burrows so that they could be captured."
Dylan and Theo destroyed all the traps they encountered.
"It's apparent that ANGAP [Madagascar's park service] is doing a poor job in Ankarana," says Dylan. "For us to find several traps in such accessible parts of the park really reflects badly on the agency especially given their significant increase in park fees since my visit last year."
The international pet trade plays a role
Other species too are subject to exploitation. Tenrecs and carnivores are also widely hunted as a source of protein, while reptiles and amphibians are enthusiastically collected for the international pet trade. Chameleons, geckos, snakes, and tortoises are the most targeted.
Local Malagasy simply putting food on the table
ANGAP, the organization that manages Madagascar's protected areas system, is generally in charge of patrolling parks, but this can be extraordinarily difficult given its budget constraints and basic needs of local people. While its staff is better trained that those in other parts of Africa, ANGAP alone can not rectify the competing interests of local people and conservationists.
ANGAP*: working to bring conservation benefits to locals
One of ANGAP's principal goals is to enable local communities to benefit directly from conservation. Thus 50% of park entrance fees collected by ANGAP go to local communities and visitors cannot enter a park without a hiring a local guide. ANGAP has extensive training programs to ensure local guides are knowledgeable about the flora, fauna, and other details of the protected area. ANGAP also works closely with domestic and foreign scientists to study biodiversity and the impact of visitors on parks and reserves.
Despite some recent criticism, ANGAP, with the help of organizations like the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) and Conservation International (CI) have worked to reduce poaching and improve conservation enforcement, especially on the Masoala Peninsula where they use aerial patrols to detect illegal land clearing and laly in and around the national park.
"With park boundaries extending over 526 km as the crow flies, dense forest, rugged terrain and few footpaths, it is almost impossible for park staff on foot to see tavy plots or the lemur traps known as laly unless they stumbled upon them by chance," according to Masoala - The Eye of the Forest. "Aerial patrols, begun in 1998, have dramatically increased detection rates and also serve as an important deterrent for villagers who might otherwise be tempted to settle inside the park."
ANGAP and WCS have also tried to provide communities with alternative sources of protein through fish-farming to help reduce the need to hunt wildlife.
Wildlife preservation is key to Madagascar's economic growth
Through ecotourism, Madagascar's wildlife may well provide the best hope for the country to emerge from its economic status as one of the world's poorest countries where most earn less than a dollar a day and nearly half of the children under five years of age malnourished. Ensuring that wildlife preservation does not come at an unreasonable cost to local people is critical both to the success of conservation efforts and the growth of Madagascar's economy.
* ANGAP is now known by the acronym SAPM for the System of Protected Areas of Madagascar

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. The Minnesota Vikings understood the low expectations from outside the organization. During training camp, linebacker Chad Greenway asked the obvious: Why would the pundits predict good things for Minnesota, a team coming off a franchise-tying 13 losses, with a star running back trying to return from major knee surgery, an unproven second-year quarterback and a defense that was historically bad against the pass last season? But Greenway witnessed a transformation during those training camp days that manifested itself in September. He sensed a "buy-in" from everyone on the team, a change in mentality to reverse the downward slide the Vikings had been on for two years. "There's a confidence we have, and everybody is just playing for each other," Greenway said. "Playing for the guy next to you makes a big difference, and last year the circumstances were so much different." Greenway added: "I think we're all in. I don't think you can see anybody in this locker r...

Padres' losing streak hits double digits
They've tried a players-only meeting and meetings with coaches. They've tried blasting upbeat, old-school Michael Jackson music in the clubhouse and across the public-address system.
Stealing from the movie "Major League," before Sunday's game against Colorado, Heath Bell asked a clubhouse attendant to bring in a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken to be sacrificed.
None of it has worked. The Padres' losing streak reached 10 games Sunday after they dropped a 4-2 decision to the Rockies in front of 23,250 at Petco Park.
And team leader Adrian Gonzalez admitted what has become obvious: The team is pressing.
"I see a lot of guys pressing," Gonzalez said. "It comes with the territory once you get to the pennant race. We just have to realize that the game is the same game it was in April. We've just got to play it the same way."
Gonzalez would not name teammates he sees pressing. Asked for examples of how they're pressing, he said: "A lot of ways. Just not making the plays or having the same at-bats we used to. (Not) making the (same) pitches. You can see it. You don't need me to name (the players) for you."
Eight days ago the Padres were one of only two teams, along with the Yankees, whose longest losing streak measured three games. Now their 10-game losing skid is tied for the second longest in the major leagues this season.
The Pittsburgh Pirates, owners of the worst record in baseball, lost 12 in a row.
Meanwhile, the Padres' postgame clubhouse mood is turning so quiet you could hear a game drop in the standings. With the Giants' 3-0 win against the Dodgers, what had been a 6 ½-game lead 11 games ago has been sliced to one.
And the Rockies have vaulted from 11 games back on Aug. 22 to 4 ½ out.
Asked if he feels things are slipping away, manager Bud Black paused noticeably, then said: "I feel we're not playing well enough to win right now. We have to do that. There's still a lot of baseball left (26 games). We're still in the hunt. This will be a test. It's out there in front of us."
Sunday's loss was a microcosm of the team's struggles during the losing streak. For example:
•Bad hitting — The Padres went 1-for-6 with runners in scoring position. That one hit was Miguel Tejada's 297th career homer, which came in his 2,000th game. The club has scored 23 runs in the losing streak.
•Bad defense — Charging a ground-ball single in an attempt to prevent Ryan Spilborghs from going from first to third, center fielder Chris Denorfia overran the ball. Spilborghs took third, then scored when third baseman Chase Headley couldn't turn Troy Tulowitzki's ground-ball shot into an inning-ending double play.
•Bad luck — With the Padres having tied the score 2-2 on Tejada's sixth-inning homer, Black brought in Mike Adams with runners on first and second and one out in the seventh. After the Rockies executed a double steal, Adams gave up a two-run single to Melvin Mora, the ball barely eluding David Eckstein's leap. The Rockies' current roster was 1-for-26 against Adams coming into the at-bat.

The below post was authored by John Heimerl, PL2, University of Minnesota Pediatrics Residency.
Greetings again from Zambia.
I succeeded in finding a better way to access the internet. There is an internet cafe a short walk from the TTF clinic and the speed is fast enough to upload pictures and not take all day to do it. This is a good thing, as TTF has been without internet all week.
Earlier this week while Dr. Tim was south at a conference, we had a traditional Zambian meal together at the farm.
Our meal consisted of nshima, Chinese cabbage stew and
Nshima is the traditional food here, and likely everyone in the country can make it. It is made from ground corn and is the staple of the local diet. Nmisha typically is served with beans or rice, and sometimes fish or chicken is served as a side. I can't say there is much taste to it, but I kind of like it at the same time. I will try to bring some back with me so I can make some for my wife.
Preparing Nshima and the meal
Clinic has been busy this week. We have seen and enrolled numerous children and adults. One of the children was 13 month old with stage IV HIV, due to severe wasting. He will be starting ARV therapy and has been enrolled in the TTF nutrition program.
One of my roles has been to help make it easier to track progress while children are getting nutrition support.
This mother and child were both new to the clinic. The boy is 4 years old and, as you can see, has a rather large umbilical hernia.
While Dr. TIm was away I did some shopping. I was able to find a nice selection of tomatoes just outside of the clinic for a good price
Till next time,

Federal Stimulus Dollars Support Weatherization Efforts
OH's HomeWise Program Exceeds ARRA Goals Early
Unlike a procrastinating student with finals week on the horizon, OH's HomeWise Weatherization Program didn't need an extension to meet the original deadline of June 30 for spending American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) dollars. Although the deadline is now extended through Dec. 31, HomeWise has hit — and exceeded — its ARRA target of 1,582 units, with a total of 1,637 ARRA-funded units completed.
In 2009, Seattle was awarded $4.8 million in ARRA funds for weatherization, to be spent over three years. This money has been funneled through the HomeWise program, which has been offering free energy efficiency upgrades to low-income homeowners and renters since the 1980s. Back in 2009, the ARRA target appeared almost unattainable, but strong partnerships between the Office of Housing and Seattle's affordable housing community, HomeWise contractors, utility partners, and funders helped HomeWise deliver on the sky-high goal.
The 1,637 ARRA-funded units completed to date comprise 1,289 apartments and 348 single-family homes. Looking ahead, HomeWise currently has ARRA funds committed to an additional 571 units, with more to come.

ARRA Funding in Action
Q: Which project put HomeWise over the top on ARRA goals?
A: Legacy House, a 75-unit senior building in the International District owned and operated by the Seattle Chinatown International District Public Development Agency (SCIDPDA).
Using ARRA and other fund sources, HomeWise installed replacement lighting that will not only cut energy consumption by about 40,500 kWh per year, but also provide more and better lighting to Legacy House's tenants. The project also funded air sealing to further improve energy efficiency and tenant comfort. But that's not all: as the project proceeded, a new opportunity emerged — HomeWise project management staff discovered excessive ventilation levels, with roof fans pulling large volumes of heated air right out of the building. A new follow-up project, also funded by HomeWise with Puget Sound Energy participation, will retool Legacy House fans so that they will continue to deliver proper ventilation without running up the gas bill.

THE Kisarawe District Defence and Security Committee under the leadership of the District Commissioner, Fatma Kimario, has reaffirmed its recognition of the original boundaries of Kazimzumbwi National Forest Reserve in Coast region, established in 1954.
Speaking at the end of a guided tour led by the Chief Executive of the Tanzania Forest Services (TFS) Agency, Juma Mgoo, DC Kimario said the areas according to the Government Notice (GN) Number 306 and as further acknowledged on a map prepared in 1954 Coded JB. 196 with supporting beacons should be respected as lawful borders.
The leader was in full support of a statement recently issued by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism warning the public against invasion of Kazimzumbwi Forest Reserve or other human activities.
The controversy on infringement of the established borders took a new twist when Ilala District Land Survey Department contracted a surveyor to map 200 plots within the reserve but the contractor surveyed 303 plots instead.
According to an official letter to Ilala Municipal Land Surveyor with Reference Number 186/III/14/207 dated September 8, 2010, the office of the national Director of Land Survey and Photogrammetric Mapping nullified legality of all the plots.
The letter, signed by Samwel Katambi on behalf of the Director further warned the Ilala District Land Survey Office against negligence when issuing survey instructions, without conducting serious data search. "The director has revoked the unlawful survey of 303 plots at Kimwani - Chanika which are located inside the boundaries of Kazimzumbwi Reserve Forest.
"With this letter you are ordered to remove all beacons and report to the director about implementation of the order," reads part of the letter. The Forest Reserve Manager, Matthew Mwanuo, said although the leadership of neighbouring Nzasa village proved to be cooperative under community participatory initiative, there are few individuals still holding grudges against him for the intensified security with the support of game rangers.
Showing the original map to the DC and other members of the district defence and security committee, Elias Ntibansubire from TFS head office said persuasion by some of the officials from the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Human Settlement Development on change of reserve borders was unacceptable.
"There has been a persistent push to have the borders extended by 800 metres westward in compensation of the same size of the area wrongly mapped in the eastern part of the reserve. It is deplorable as the attempt would leave out some of the natural features," said Elias.

- What are some of the benefits of using direct sensing before and in conjunction with traditional sampling?
Most state regulators do not accept direct sensing data directly, or alone, as a basis for making site action decisions because direct sensing of any type (MIP, LIF/UVOST®, HPT) are technologies which have been designed a qualitative screening methods opposed to quantitative measurement tools. That said, in our experience direct sensing data is almost always a section or our Client's reports to state regulators for two primary reasons:
- Traditional sampling data from the site tends to correlated quite well with direct sensing data.
- Our high resolution 2D/3D visualizations of the horizontal and vertical extent of the contamination plume provides a clear picture of the site.
COLUMBIA almost always recommends an immediate sampling effort after completion of the direct sensing survey. Some of the benefits for conducting direct sensing before and in conjunction with traditional sampling methods include:
- The ability to quickly delineate the source area and the horizontal and vertical extent of the contamination plume, permitting precise location and depth of sampling events and monitoring wells within the plume area. This avoids the time consuming, costly and often non-productive approach of "sampling everywhere" to obtain only the few pieces of sampling data that are meaningful.
- Direct sensing provides a mechanism to quickly locate the source so that appropriate monitoring wells can be placed in the correct location.
- Direct sensing will show the horizontal extent of the plume (that is, the edge of the technology's detection limits) revealing areas outside the horizontal limit where traditional sampling must be employed for lower detection limits.
- COLUMBIA's high resolution data services and visualization platform, SmartData Solutions®, can incorporate sampling data along with the direct sensing data. This can also provide pinpoint locations and depths for appropriate remedial action, whether chemical injection, "dig and haul" or other methods.
It is our opinion that in most cases neither direct sensing nor sampling should be used without the other. They complement and confirm each other and together provide a more complete assessment of the site.

Gwinnett Senior Leadership names class of 2011LAWRENCEVILLE — Gwinnett Senior Leadership will welcome the 2010-11 class of new members to the organization this afternoon with a reception at Garden Plaza in Lawrenceville. Gwinnett Senior Leadership is made up of a diverse group of Gwinnett's mature residents who have an interest in contributing their experience and adding value to the Gwinnett community. Monthly programs for the class will focus on justice, education, power, growth, government, the region, health and human services. The program, which is hosted by Gwinnett Technical College, is unique to Gwinnett and the state of Georgia. It is led by the Board of Trustees, steering committee members and program day chairs. On behalf of the Board of Trustees, Gwinnett Senior Leadership chairman Elliott Brack will welcome the new class, which includes Janice Bullock, Frances Davis, Libby Fannin, Sonny Gilreath, Nita Halford, Norman Harrison, Kathy Hedrick, Jean Holley, Cathy Karlsen, Ross Kaul, Wally Kelleman, Maureen Kelly, James "Jim" Kwater, Jack Mason, Glenn McFall, Ernest Melton, Linda Newton, Keith Roche, Nancy Segars, Rudolph Smith, Kent Swanson, Betty Warbington, Diane Witmer and Jerome Wright. "We're very excited about the eleventh year of Senior Leadership Gwinnett," Brack said. "It is the largest class we've had and the program is gaining popularity with seniors in Gwinnett." BJ's foundation donates $17K to nonprofits NORCROSS — BJ's Charitable Foundation, as part of its quarterly giving schedule, donated $17,500 in grants to the following Norcross local nonprofits: Jewish Family & Career Services, Auditory-Verbal Center and Tiny Stitches. The recipients support the Foundation's focus of providing basic need services in the areas of hunger prevention, self-sufficiency, health care or education and primarily benefit needy children and families residing in the communities BJ's Wholesale Club serves. Jewish Family & Career Services in Atlanta received $7,500 to purchase dental materials and supplies for the Ben Massell Dental Clinic, which provides free dental care to more than 8,000 low- and no-income Atlanta-area residents annually. Auditoriay-Verbal Center of Atlanta received $5,000 to purchase supplies and equipment for the Auditory-Verbal Therapy Program that teaches children with mild to profound hearing impairments to listen and speak without the use of sign language or lip reading. Tiny Stitches in Suwanee received $5,000 to purchase yarn, fabric and supplies for the Blankets for Newborns program that helps indigent newborns in North Georgia get a healthy start in life by providing them with hand-sewn clothing, blankets and other items. BJ's Charitable Foundation donated a total of $579,032 to 86 nonprofits throughout its footprint. Bank collects 3 tons of PB&J for food banks ATLANTA — Bank of North Georgia collected more than 3,800 jars of peanut butter and jelly during its third annual "Back to School Peanut Butter and Jelly Food Drive," which benefited 27 food banks near its 43 offices in metro Atlanta. The bank collected 5,787 pounds — or nearly three tons — of peanut butter and jelly. That is enough to make about 46,300 sandwiches for children in metro Atlanta. Food banks in Gwinnett that received donations included the Breaking Down Walls Ministry in Lilburn, the Norcross Cooperative Ministry and the North Gwinnett Co-op in Buford. Bank of North Georgia held the three-week food drive in July. St. Pius X student receives athletic accolade NORCROSS — St. Pius X Catholic High School senior William Brazell of Norcross won the bronze medal in shooting at the National Junior Olympics in July. Tied for sixth place with three other shooters, Brazell posted a perfect score to advance to the finals in a shoot-off. Once in the finals, he tied for second but came home with the bronze following an additional shoot-off. Brazell also won the 2010 Georgia State Tournament earlier this summer. Belk hosts 'Engagement Party' for couples BUFORD — Brides and grooms-to-be are invited to Belk at the Mall of Georgia on Thursday for the store's signature Engagement Party event that offers couples a fun-filled evening with food, beverages, entertainment and prizes.

Call Mall of Georgia Belk at 678-714-9914 for more information. Snellville resident honored with Hero Award SNELLVILLE — Snellville resident Cathalene Teahan, a registered nurse and consultant who lobbies with the Georgia state legislature on public health issues, was one of three winners of the first annual School Health Hero Awards, presented by the Georgia Association of School Nurses. The Georgia Association founded the awards program this year to honor people who actively supported the key role school nurses play to improve health outcomes for students and school staff statewide. As Georgia school nurse programs faced a complete loss of state funding last spring, Teahan got the word out to Georgia residents and elected officials about the key role school nurses play in their children's health, wellness and academic achievement. She also assisted discussions to engage state legislators to recognize school health as a core and essential program in the schools. Those efforts led to state funding being preserved in a year when Georgia faced serious budget challenges. Gwinnett Gab appears in the Thursday and Sunday editions of the Gwinnett Daily Post.

Valley City State head football coach Dennis McCulloch announced
on Tuesday the addition of four more student-athletes.
Quarterback Kiefer Langan from St. John, N.D., linebacker Isaac Yturralde from El Paso, Texas, linebacker Chanzce Jones from Houston, Texas and projected wide receiver Antoine Griffin from Patrick AFB, Fla. have signed Letters of Intent to attend VCSU and play football for the Vikings this fall.

Valley City State sophomore right fielder Brady Anderson is the NAIA Baseball National Player of the Week, the NAIA announced Tuesday.
Hi-Liner softball debuted with 7-3 and 18-15 wins in 59-degree weather at Bismarck on Saturday before Monday's blizzard froze the schedule for at least the next week.
"Both teams looked better at the plate as both also started their No. 2 pitchers, so the hitters had a little better luck although the defenses looked like it might have been their first games as errors were easy to come by," said Hi-Liner head coach Jason Lindgren of the later game that featured eight errors from either side.
Valley City State sophomore right fielder Brady Anderson is your back-to-back North Star Athletic Association Baseball Player of the Week.
Anderson, the 5-foot-10-inch Jamestown, N.D. native, enjoyed a .593 batting average and a 1.148 slugging percentage as the Vikings posted a 3-3 record between March 24 and March 31. He hit for the cycle in March 29's 23-8 win at Dickinson State in which he powered for a two-run homer, an RBI triple, a three-run double and a total of eight RBIs.
Valley City State University Athletic Director Jack Denholm announced on Friday the hiring of Adam Longmore as the 11th head volleyball coach in school history.
Longmore replaces Susan Kolbow, who resigned in January following four seasons as head coach, and takes over the program in mid-April.
Read this story in Tuesday's Times-Record.
Hi-Liner softball's Tuesday doubleheader vs. Grand Forks Red River was rescheduled to Saturday, but has since been postponed. Friday's doubleheader at West Fargo has also been postponed.
Softball (2-0 overall)'s next game is currently scheduled for 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 8 at Fargo South.
Baseball's Tuesday 5 p.m.-and-7 p.m. doubleheader opener against Grand Forks Central has been cancelled, and their 5 p.m.-and-7 p.m. home doubleheader against Devils Lake has been postponed to May 8.
Valley City State junior right-handed pitcher Chris Holden and sophomore right-hander Corey Pudas allowed just nine combined hits and a run as the Vikings swept Dickinson State in Sunday's doubleheader to take the weekend series 3-1.
Sunday's pair of wins improved on Saturday's 6-4 loss and 23-8 win.
Valley City State's 3-1 weekend improved their season record to 12-19 overall and 3-1 in Frontier/North Star play. Next for the Vikings are Saturday's 1 p.m.-and-3 p.m. doubleheader and Sunday's noon-and-2 p.m. back-to-back at Jamestown.

Megan Fox is probably most well-known for her Marilyn Monroe tatt, her beef with Michael Bay and her bending real, real far over a motorcycle in the Transformers movies. Megan also played a child-hating hottie in her recent comedy Friends With Kids, but maybe it's time we expanded our minds a little and began thinking of her as a person capable of bringing life into the world. No, we did not type the word "MILF." Your brain just read it that way! According to RadarOnline, the This Is 40 actress and her husband of a year and a half Brian Austin Green are allegedly expecting their first child together. "They just found out and are incredibly excited," their source claims. He or she also alleges that the "pregnancy was unexpected," a detail that makes us raise one thin, sultry, Angelina Jolie-esque eyebrow at the validity of this rumor entirely. Still, Fox would look super-cute with a baby belly, so we're going to hope for the time being that it's true. No one can stop us from believing! Well, okay, Megan Fox could, but she hasn't yet!
Megan is currently stepmom to Brian's son Kassius, whom he had with ex Vanessa Marcil. "It's still early, so they are only telling close friends and family members," the source claims. "Megan has become a great stepmom, and Brian knows she'll be wonderful with the baby." More importantly, can we discuss how ridiculously attractive this child is going to be? The only infant in the nursery with razor-sharp cheekbones. Seriously.

When you have a specific health concern, maintaining a healthy lifestyle isn't always easy. Everyone seems to have a suggestion — your sister, your neighbor, the doctor on TV. There's no shortage of information out there. But how can you remember all the details or know what or who is really right?
Our research and development team set out to tackle this issue head-on, with the goal of making wellness-related decisions easier for you. And after months of hard work, we were proud to recently announce a new line of advanced, all-in-one formulations designed to provide natural solutions for common health concerns — Vitacost Targeted Wellness.
Having several friends and family members who deal with cholesterol issues, I find one of these supplements to be of particular interest.
Vitacost Targeted Wellness Cholesterol Support was designed to maintain healthy cholesterol and triglyceride levels already within normal range.* This expertly combined formula features all the nutrients you've heard and read about in one supplement.
Each 2-capsule serving provides the following clinically studied ingredients:
- 100 mcg of chromium GTF as ChromeMate ®, a superior, highly bioavailable form of chromium-an essential trace mineral required for normal protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism.*
- 600 mg of red yeast rice, a natural substance that may help support cardiovascular health, as well as lipid cholesterol levels already within the normal range.*
- 150 mg of Sytrinol ®, a patented and proprietary formula consisting of delta, gamma and alpha tocotrienols derived from natural citrus and palm fruit extracts.
- 150 mg of pantethine as Pantesin ®, a pure and highly absorbable form of pantethine (vitamin B5).
- 100 mg of L-arginine, an essential amino acid.
The entire Targeted Wellness line provides a benefit I feel compelled to call to your attention-convenience. Taking multiple products can be both confusing and expensive, which is why our team carefully formulated each supplement to contain everything you need for less than $1 a day.
Each unique blend delivers up to eight high-quality, clinically studied vitamins, minerals, standardized herbal extracts and other nutrients with demonstrated benefits for your particular health concern. These supplements really are the best of the best.

Alan Pardew has finally admitted Newcastle are in the hunt for Champions League qualification after seeing Hatem Ben Arfa light up their bid.
The Frenchman scored a goal of jaw-dropping quality to set the Magpies on their way to a hard-fought 2-0 victory over Bolton, their fifth successive win in the Barclays Premier League. It left them level on points with fourth-placed Tottenham, who lost 2-1 at home to promoted Norwich, with five games of a wholly unexpected campaign to go.
Asked about the possibility of a top-four finish, Pardew said: "I have never actually ruled it out. You guys kept saying to me, 'Are you going to make the Champions League?', and I said we were just looking to win the next game. This week could be important for us because if the [FA Cup] semi-final results go our way, we could be in Europe, I think, by next weekend."

Dan Di Sciullo, NHL Editor
Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) -
There was a time when Philadelphia Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren would have given John Stevens a chance to coach his way out of a losing streak, but two months into the 2009-10 season, that time had passed.
The Flyers have performed below expectations all season long, and the bubble finally burst Friday afternoon when the club announced Stevens had been relieved of his head coaching duties. At the time of the dismissal, his team was outside of the playoff picture and had just suffered its seventh loss in eight games. A first-time NHL bench boss when he was hired to replace Ken Hitchcock less than a month into the 2006-07 campaign, Stevens has now joined the ranks of ex-coaches, a reality that not even the finest of leaders can escape.
At times Philadelphia achieved great things under Stevens, none more impressive then when the club made it all the way to the Eastern Conference finals one year after finishing dead last in the NHL in his first season on the job.

Real Housewives of New York
Single Sonja Morgan Wears a Wedding Gown-Style Dress: Hot or Not? (PHOTO)
We saw Sonja Morgan struggle through her divorce settlement on The Real Housewives of New York Season 5, but that's not stopping this independent lady from channeling her inner bride.
The blond Housewife was seen at the Angel Ball 2012 in NYC last night (October 22), rocking the red carpet in a fitted, one-shoulder white gown and elegant pearl earrings.
And while her dress might remind us of wedding bells, we don't think that's what's on Sonja's radar. The reality TV star recently posted in her Bravo blog, "I am not going to depend on a man to take care of me."
What do you think of her glamorous look? Let us know in the buttons below.

Over 100 minutes of rare Ray Charles Concert footage from the legendary 1961 Antibes Jazz Festival in France will be released on DVD on October 25th, 2011. The newly discovered footage, featuring an hour and 45 minutes of performances, show Ray Charles in his prime period with the original Raeletts and his most legendary band (including David "Fathead" Newman and Hank Crawford.) These concerts were Ray's first-ever performances in Europe and helped to cement his place one of America's most beloved international stars.
"Seeing and hearing Ray perform so brilliantly 50 years ago in France, is an inspiration and reminds us just how gifted this man was and what an amazing and special talent he had." says Jamie Foxx, who received the Best Actor Academy Award for his portrayal of Ray Charles in the 2004 feature film Ray. "This film is a fantastic way for us to continue to celebrate Ray Charles and his beautiful legacy."
Ray Charles — Live In France 1961 features 25 songs including the timeless classics "What'd I Say," "Georgia On My Mind," "Hallelujah, I Love Her So" and "I Believe To My Soul." Also included are "Doodlin'," "One Mint Julep" & "Hornful Soul" showcasing Ray's jazz era, as well as the country-tinged Nat King Cole composition, "With You On My Mind," a song Ray never recorded. Also included is a 25-minute bonus section that features six additional performances from the festival.
Produced by Eagle Rock Entertainment and Reelin' In The Years Productions with the full cooperation of The Ray Charles Foundation, the project is the first to develop from a partnership between Reelin' In The Years Productions, the world's largest library of music footage and France's Institut National de l'Audiovisuel (Ina), one of Europe's most important footage archives.
"We've been archiving music performances (and producing films with archival materials), for many years, and this is some of the most important music footage ever to be uncovered," said producers David Peck, Tom Gulotta, Phil Galloway, and Steve Scoville in the Producer's Notes. "To find true long-form concert footage from 1961 is rare enough, but when it's Ray Charles at his peak, with his legendary band, performing for over 100 minutes, it's a truly historic event."
Ray Charles — Live In France 1961 will make its Hollywood (and world-wide) premiere at a special screening presented by the American Cinematheque at the Egyptian Theater in Los Angeles on October 20th. Tickets are available to the public for this special event, which will be followed by a moderated panel discussion that will include director David Peck, one of the film's producers Tom Gulotta, Ray Charles catalog authority James Austin and Rob Bowman, Associate Professor of Ethnomusicology at Toronto's York University, whose incisive liner notes are part of the Ray Charles — Live In France 1961 package. For more information on the screening please visit http://www.americancinemathequecalendar.com/content/ray-charles-live-in-france-1961-0.

Today's hot ticket for big power from a small-block Chevy is the 383. Simply taking any 350 small-block and installing a longer-stroke, 3.75-inch crank and a set of new pistons can get you lots of neck-snapping torque. 383 buildups are commonplace because they are straightforward, offering big improvements in performance and low- to mid-rpm torque, and, depending on the particular performance level, many 383 engines can be assembled on a budget.
With the huge popularity of the 383, the performance market is loaded with a wide range of excellent pistons designed for countless applications. Choosing the right pistons for your particular combo can be challenging, but, armed with the right info, your selection can be easier. So you can check out what's currently available on the market for 383 pistons, we've compiled a detailed guide of the more common choices from various manufacturers, but keep in mind that each company offers several 383 piston variations, far too many to cover in the pages of this story. Depending on each engine's configuration, bore, compression height, rod length, performance level, and the use of power adders, you may face additional requirements. With a 383 installed under your hood, your performance car's acceleration will drastically improve. All you'll need now is better traction.
Arias 1020040
Arias' high-tensile forged 383 pistons are CNC-manufactured from billet material to withstand the added pressures experienced with turbos, nitrous, and blowers. Each piston features smoothly shaped crowns designed to promote good flame travel and combustion inside a variety of chamber shapes and sizes. Arias pistons feature standard or optional forced pin oiling, a pressure seal groove between the ring lands to increase ring sealing, and radiused valve reliefs. The wrist pins are made from high-carbon, case-hardened material. The wrist-pin locks are manufactured from carbon-steel spiral wound or tru arcs.

½ head red cabbage, finely sliced
15g/1oz coarse sea salt
100ml/3½fl oz sesame oil
50g/2oz icing sugar
50ml/2fl oz dry sherry
50ml/2fl oz white wine vinegar
10g/½oz fresh root ginger, finely grated
1 red chilli, finely chopped
2 confit duck legs, meat shredded
40g/2oz duck fat
18 green peppercorns, crushed
pinch salt
4 large spring roll wrappers (available in Asian grocers)
50g/2oz plain flour
50ml/2fl oz water
vegetable oil, for deep frying
25g/1oz butter
1 shallot, peeled, finely sliced
100g/3½oz button mushrooms, sliced
200ml/7fl oz mead
400ml/14fl oz chicken stock
25g/1oz butter
200ml/7fl oz mead
For the spicy red cabbage, place the red cabbage in a large bowl and sprinkle with the sea salt. Mix well to coat in the salt, then set aside for 4 hours. Rinse under cold water to wash the salt off, then set aside until needed.
Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/gas 7.
For the duckling breast, heat an ovenproof frying pan until hot and add the duck fat. When the fat has melted, add the duckling breasts skin-side down and fry for 4-5 minutes, or until the skin is crisp and golden-brown. Drain off the fat, turn the duckling breast over and roast in the oven for 7-8 minutes, or until golden-brown all over but still slightly pink in the middle. Set aside to rest.
For the duck 'straws', mix together the confit duck meat, duck fat, green peppercorns and salt in a bowl.
Lay the spring roll wrappers on a chopping board and cut each in half lengthways. Mix the flour in a bowl with the water to make a thick paste. Brush down the long side of one end of the sheet with the flour paste.
Spoon the duck mixture along the length of the wrapper and roll up, crimping the ends together to seal. Repeat with the remaining spring roll wrappers and duck mixture.
Half-fill a deep, heavy-based pan with vegetable oil and heat until a cube of bread dropped in sizzles and turns golden-brown in 30 seconds (CAUTION: hot oil can be dangerous. Do not leave unattended). Deep fry the duck 'straws' for 1-2 minutes, or until golden-brown and crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper. Set aside.
For the spicy red cabbage, heat the sesame oil in a large frying pan and add the drained shredded cabbage. Fry for 2 minutes, or until softened slightly but not coloured.
Push the cabbage to one side of the pan and add the icing sugar to the other side. Once the sugar has melted and begins to caramelise, add the sherry, white wine vinegar, ginger and chilli and mix in the cabbage. Fry for a further 2-3 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender. Set aside.
For the baby turnips, place all of the baby turnip ingredients into a pan and bring to the boil. Cook for 5-6 minutes, or until the turnips are tender but slightly crunchy. Drain and set aside.
For the duck sauce, melt the butter in a pan until foaming, then add the shallots and mushrooms and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until softened. Add the mead and cook until the volume of the liquid has reduced by two-thirds, then add the chicken stock and cook until the volume of the liquid has reduced by half.
Strain the sauce through a fine sieve, place back into the pan and whisk in the butter over a medium heat. Keep warm.
For the mead syrup, place the mead into a small saucepan and simmer gently over a medium heat until the liquid has reduced to about 50ml/2fl oz and is thick and syrupy.
To serve, divide the spicy red cabbage among 4 serving plates. Carve the duckling breasts in half lengthways and arrange a piece on top of each portion of cabbage. Lay two duck 'straws' against the duck and cabbage, spoon the baby turnips alongside and drizzle the duck sauce over the duck and around the plate. Finish by drizzling the mead syrup over the duck.
Type the ingredients you want to use, then click Go. For better results you can use quotation marks around phrases (e.g. "chicken breast"). Alternatively you can search by chef, programme, cuisine, diet, or dish (e.g. Lasagne).

Joker (Hammer Strike) Review
Joker (Hammer Strike)
Batman - New Animated (Mattel)
Many people have mixed feelings about the character designs on the animated show "The Batman" and indeed the show itself, but it does have its charms. This version of the Joker has a pretty cool look, with dramatic green hair that sorta looks like dreadlocks, large yellow teeth, squinted red eyes, bare feet and straitjacket.
This design worked in the context of the show, and is translated pretty well into action figure form here. The defining features of the design pop out, and the paint work is good featuring the bright colours from the show's Joker. The green of the hair and the pale white of the skin in particular are important aspects of the character. The straitjacket is also an interesting addition to the Joker's look, instead of his traditional purple suit. There is a half-way decent amount of articulation for a kid-aimed toy.
However, it appears that there is articulation at the wrist, and when I tried to turn the hand, it popped right out and after that didn't really stay in. The bulk of the hair is a separate piece from the head and can also come loose easily. It almost seemed like the figure had decayed in the packaging; I bought the figure sealed but perhaps time took its toll anyway.
The figure comes with one accessory, an oversized hammer. The action feature is cool - slamming the hammer onto the ground fires a projectile. It makes sense and the accessory makes sense for the Joker character; he may have even used a similar hammer in the show but I'm not sure. However, it's impossible for the Joker to stand up straight holding the hammer, when he has no problems standing without holding the hammer - and actually looks better with empty hands, as if about to strike. Related to the earlier point, the hammer often pulls the hand out of its socket.
If you're a fan of this particular show and love the look of the Joker in it, grab a hold of this if you can find it at a good price. It certainly has its flaws, but is a decent example of a 2D look translated to action figure form.

Christmas lights and decoration illuminations are seen in front of the Belvedere Palace in Vienna.
VIENNA: Austria's capital offers its residents the best quality of life of any city in the world and Baghdad the worst, according to the latest global survey from consultant group Mercer.
The Austrian capital with 1.7 million residents came top of the survey for the fourth year in a row, boasting of a vibrant cultural scene alongside comprehensive health care and moderate but rising housing costs. Its opulent architecture from the time of the Habsburg empire makes it a tourist magnet.
The reliable public transport system costs just 1 euro ($1.30) a day for an annual pass in a city governed by left-leaning Social Democrats and environmentalist Greens.
"The city is so international ... I have been waiting for buses and heard over 10 languages being spoken at one stop," said American Dawn Gartlehner, 42, a law firm manager who has lived in Vienna for more than 15 years.
"The city caters to all kinds of people, all ages and all walks of life. You can have a wonderful day here spending all the money in your bank account but have an equally great time spending nothing at all."
Mercer conducts its annual survey to help companies and organizations set compensation for staff on international assignments. It uses 39 factors such as political stability, health care, education, crime, recreation and transport.
Anna Staribacher, a 24-year-old student, praised her hometown's safe streets and abundance of parks and woodlands. "Austria is a wealthy country, we have low unemployment and free university access. Living is affordable and prices are still moderate by international standards. But I wonder why people are still so grumpy all the time?"
Despite its sovereign debt crisis, Europe has 15 of the world's top 25 cities in the 2012 survey. Germany and Switzerland each have three in the top 10. The lowest-ranking city in western Europe was Athens, gripped by deep economic woes.
"Overall, European cities continue to have high quality of living as a result of a combination of increased stability, rising living standards and advanced city infrastructures," said Slagin Parakatil, senior researcher at Mercer.
"But economic turmoil, political tension and high unemployment in some European countries and high levels of unemployment have continued to be problematic in the region."
Canadian cities dominated rankings in the Americas region, with Vancouver at No. 5 retaining the top spot and Honolulu at 28 the most pleasant U.S. urban center. New Zealand's Auckland at No. 3 is still atop the Asia Pacific region's charts, while Dubai at 73 gets best marks in the Middle East and Africa region.
But that region also has 15 cities in the bottom 20, including Lagos, Nigeria; Bamako, Mali; Khartoum, Sudan; and N'Djamena, Chad.
Iraq's capital Baghdad was ranked lowest in the world.
"The ongoing turmoil in many countries across North Africa and the Middle East has led to serious security issues for locals and expatriates," Parakatil said. "Many countries continue to experience violence through political demonstrations that have sometimes developed into massive uprisings and led to serious instability within the region."
This is a far cry from Vienna, which has held the top spot in the Mercer rankings since 2009.
Yet the city is not without complaints. Jennifer Stepper, an American designer who has lived in Vienna for 18 years, noted that visiting friends often comment about how unfriendly waiters and shopkeepers are. But it no longer bothers her.
"Now I realize it is just the way of the Viennese. Like the rest of us, they have their quirks."
