Family and friends gathered Sunday afternoon at Rye Patch for a ceremonial unveiling of a special portrait.
A painting of one of Aiken's most esteemed residents, Dorothy Knox Goodyear Rogers, used to hang in the dining room of Rye Patch, a home that had been purchased by Knox Goodyear Rogers and her husband Edmund Rogers in 1939. They added a wing to the residence, the out buildings and the carriage house.
Dorothy Knox Goodyear Rogers died in 1980, and her children donated the home and 10 acres to the City of Aiken.
It was through the efforts of the Trustees of The Friends of Hopelands and Rye Patch Inc. that a portrait of Dorothy Knox Goodyear Rogers will once again hang in its rightful place.
Roland Windham, the late Aiken city manager, had a great passion for Rye Patch and Hopelands, and one of his career highlights was the acquisition and development of the properties, said Korhonen. The Windhams were present on Feb. 6, 1983, for the official ribbon-cutting ceremony when Rye Patch was officially opened to the public. Kitty Windham, a Friends of Hopelands and Rye Patch trustee board member, donated the three arrangements of Red Roses at Rye Patch for Sunday's ceremony.
The 10-acre estate continues to have an important presence as it serves as the site for weddings, receptions and meetings.
Mayor Fred Cavanaugh read and presented members of the Goodyear family with a proclamation.
A former president of The Friends of Hopelands and Rye Patch Inc., Beth Newburn, was the individual who spearheaded the project, and who thought there should be a portrait of the woman whose warmth and graciousness made Rye Patch a welcoming place.
"It always bothered me that they didn't have a visual remembrance here for her other than a plaque," said Newburn. "I said, 'Can we get a copy and have a giclee reproduction made?'"
Newburn was charged with the responsibility, and having been made point person on the project, contacted members of the Goodyear family, who had the original portrait hanging in Denver, Colo., which was then photographed by a professional photographer, with the photos being sent to Aiken resident, photographer and artist Shelly Marshall Schmidt, who then made a giclee reproduction of the oil painting.
Michael Smart of M Smart Custom Framing framed the portrait.
"The work that was done by Shelly Schmidt in the reproduction is fantastic," said Korhonen. "It will be hung in the dining room. It's what Rye Patch is all about."

iMore show 327: Guessing games
It's called sell-in (the channel) and sell-through (to the end customer)
Apple reports sell-ins and they report inventory...so you have an exact
number of how many units apple actually sold to end customers....
Apple is the only company providing these exact numbers quarter by quarter...
Someskunk and others...don't, they only tout smoke and mirrors...
and they never tell us how many units they sold.... Why is that?... nun...because so they can after launching a new model pull all the old unsold models back very quietly... but they'll still remain in all the stats as sold...cause they never do report inventory!!!.... that's WHY...there are NO official or real numbers from any Androdevises out there ... and there will NEVER be !!!...
So the research firms by the likes of Gartner, IDC and others...can put any fantasy numbers they want in to the wild....all depends on...who is paying for the research...because those numbers are impossible to prove... Those estimates are BS...
The analytic figures are a laugh however ... as they are infamous for reporting that Samsung shipped 2.5 million galaxy tabs in Q2 2012 but than a court document reveals that Samsung actually only sold 37,000 in the same time frame.
This Analytics firms have been constantly wrong with their numbers...Year after Year !!!
and still ... everyone reports on their numbers as if they were a fact.
I am very disappointed at this podcast. I am new to iMore and was hoping to some interesting talk. Jim Dalrymple just talks BS without even really knowing what the competition offers. This podcast is just a huge "Apple is great". For that I better watch the Apple Keynotes. Android central is much better in my opinion. They are not constantly defending Android against iOS. These guys seem to be on the defensive all the time. I deleted the podcast. BIG Disappointment!!!!
I have to agree, I'm afraid guys ... that your co-host, was a complete jerk. I'm an Apple fan and his apologetics and rudeness even rubbed off on Mr. Nice Rene. Seriously, I'll not comment any further than to say if this douche is on iMore ever again, that's a must-skip episode.
PS. why don't we all use apple products all the time? Not all of us are uber rich or reviewers whose job it is to buy EVERY NEW MODEL EVERY TIME ONE IS RELEASED TO ALWAYS HAVE THE NEWEST AND MOST COMPATIBLE HARDWARE so sometimes we need legacy connectors to plug in our old devices. I guess that makes us "apple disloyal"? This guy is the reason why I love my iPhone and hate Apple apologists.

NEW YORK — Todd Pletcher's approach to the Kentucky Derby is simple: keep his best 3-year-olds from facing each other, win a bunch of big races around the country and then let them meet up in the starting gate at Churchill Downs on the first Saturday in May,
Mission accomplished.
The nation's leading trainer is set to send out at least four of the 20 Derby starters on May 4 – that's 20 percent of the field – and likely will have the favorite in undefeated Verrazano, winner of the Wood Memorial at Aqueduct on March 30.
His other starters will be Louisiana Derby winner Revolutionary, Arkansas Derby winner Overanalyze and Blue Grass runner-up Palace Malice. Plus, there's an outside chance Charming Kitten can make the field if a few horses with more Derby qualifying points drop out.
And to think he could have had two other Derby starters if not for health issues with 2-year-old champion Shanghai Bobby and Violence.
Pletcher ended an 0-for-24 streak by winning his first Derby with Super Saver in 2010. A year ago, he had two chances, and back in 2007 he equaled the record for most starters in a single Derby with five.
So here we go again, and this time Pletcher's really loaded.
In the AP's latest Run to the Roses' Top 10 list of Derby contenders, Verrazano is first, Revolutionary third, Overanalyze fifth and Palace Malice eighth.
A pair of weekend preps, the Arkansas Derby and Blue Grass – put three new horses in the top 10 in Overanalyze, Blue Grass winner Java's War and runner-up Palace Malice.
Overanalyze came through with a big effort in the stretch and won at Oaklawn Park by 4¼ lengths over Frac Daddy. At Keeneland, Java's War went from last to first to edge Palace Malice by a neck.
"We were hoping for an improved performance in his second start off the layoff," Pletcher said of Overanalyze.
who ran fifth in the Gotham on March 2 after winning the Remsen last November. "We were hoping for a big effort, but he actually exceeded our expectations."
The weekend also was big for Kenny McPeek, who trains Java's War and Frac Daddy.
"The day was excellent. It makes all of the hard work you put in worth it," McPeek said of results that gives him two Derby starters.
Dropping out of the top 10 are Vyjack, Govenor Charlie and Oxbow, who finished fifth in Arkansas.
While Pletcher was adding to his strong lineup, three-time Derby winner Bob Baffert was going the other way. Currently, Sunland Derby winner Govenor Charlie will be Baffert's lone Derby horse. Among his others who won't make the cut are War Academy, Den's Legacy, Flashback and Super Ninety Nine.
"Only one can win it," Baffert noted.
Four-time Derby winner D. Wayne Lukas will have two chances to make it No. 5 with Rebel Stakes winner Will Take Charge and Oxbow.
The 20 starters for the Derby will be determined for the first time by a points system set up by Churchill Downs. Currently, Verrazano and Orb lead with 150 points apiece, with Falling Sky 20th with 20 points.
This week, the point values drop dramatically for the Lexington Stakes (20-8-4-2). The final race to earn points is the Derby Trial on April 27.
Here's our Top 10:
1. Verrazano (Todd Pletcher, trainer; John Velazquez, jockey): Taking the EZ Pass lane to Louisville and is expected to be the Derby favorite. ... Wood winner is unbeaten in all four starts. ... Next start: Kentucky Derby, Churchill Downs, May 4. ... Final Derby future wager odds: 7-1.
2. Orb (Shug McGaughey, Joel Rosario): Worked 5 furlongs in 1:00.81 Sunday at Payson Park. ... Rosario back on Orb after Johnny V declared for Verrazano. ... Won Fountain of Youth and Florida Derby to give trainer second Derby starter since 1989. ... Next start: Kentucky Derby. ... Odds: 13-1.
3. Revolutionary (Pletcher, Calvin Borel): Louisiana Derby winner owned by WinStar Farm LLC, owners of 2010 Derby winner Super Saver. ... 2-for-2 this year after winning one of four as a 2-year-old. ... Next start: Kentucky Derby. ... Odds: 12-1.
4. Goldencents (Doug O'Neill, Kevin Krigger): With Rick Pitino a co-owner, O'Neill's Derby barn will have lots of visitors. ... Won Santa Anita Derby with impressive effort to give trainer a shot at winning second straight Derby. ... Next start: Kentucky Derby. ... Odds: 49-1.
5. Overanalyze (Pletcher, Rafael Bejarano): Won Arkansas Derby by 4 1/4 lengths with huge stretch run. ... Owner Mike Repole has himself another legit Derby contender. ... Colt arrived Sunday at Churchill Downs. ... Next start: Kentucky Derby. ... Odds: 49-1.
6. Normandy Invasion (Chad Brown, Javier Castellano): Looks to be the 'now' horse following strong second-place finish in Wood. ... Castellano must like his chances since he gave up ride on Revolutionary. ... Next start: Kentucky Derby. ... Odds: 18-1.
7. Java's War (Kenny McPeek, Julien Leparoux): Slow start, fast finish to win Blue Grass on big day for McPeek. ... Trainer added a second Derby horse when Frac Daddy ran second in Arkansas Derby. ... Next start: Kentucky Derby. ... Odds: 31-1.
8. Palace Malice (Pletcher, Mike Smith): Second by a neck in Blue Grass, but good enough to move into Derby field. ... Has only a maiden win in six starts. ... Next start: Kentucky Derby. ... Odds: 42-1.
9. Itsmyluckyday (Eddie Plesa Jr., Elvis Trujillo): Worked 5 furlongs last week at Calder in 1:01.00. ... Won Gulfstream Park Derby and Holy Bull before running second in Florida Derby. ... Next start: Kentucky Derby. ... Odds: 10-1.
10. Will Take Charge (D. Wayne Lukas, Jon Court): Rebel winner will go into Derby off seven-week break. ... Next start: Kentucky Derby. ... Odds: 19-1.
Keep an eye on: Black Onyx, Frac Daddy, Govenor Charlie, Mylute, Vyjack.

Incredible Story – Dye Rotor Survives Car Fire, Still Works!
Thursday, June 27th, 2013
The title says it all. George Bel, a school teacher who picked the wrong day to leave his windows cracked in the faculty parking lot, was the victim of a horrible finals week retaliation by one of his students. However, rising from the flames was this incredible story of a Dye Rotor proving it's durability even in the most extreme environments.
by George Bel
"Working as a teacher has its perks. One of those perks is that you get to do lots of great things with the kids. For example, I was trying to start up a paintball club at our school. Out of eight potentially interested students, there were six Dye owners, and at one point we were trying to put together a proposal to hopefully get sponsored by you guys.
Being a teacher also has its downs, however… I've learned the hard way that I should never park my car in the staff teachers parking spots with my windows open, no matter how hot it gets. Some disgruntled student decided to torch a teachers car indiscriminately, and I was the lucky winner of that raffle.
I lost everything in there, including my izon sight, but my Rotor miraculously lived, and works just fine! Thank goodness I left my Dye Dam at home that day, I would have cried if I lost that guy."

Lincoln Reavis wants to go outside and run and play with his siblings like a normal 12-year-old boy.
This is currently not a possibility for him due to a serious heart condition that causes him to be winded climbing a flight of stairs or walking out to the mailbox.
"When Lincoln was 5 his big brother was already participating in Scouts," said Mitzi Reavis, Lincoln's mother. "Every year they have to have forms filled out for scouts and even though Lincoln wasn't old enough to join Scouts, yet I decided to go ahead and take him too to get him on the same rotation as the others. That's when they heard a super loud murmur that had never been heard before."
Lincoln was diagnosed with a sub aortic membrane that had to be surgically removed through open-heart surgery at the age of 6. Mitzi said they also made aware then that one of Lincoln's heart valves may need further surgery in the future.
So they waited. In November last year they received the news they were dreading. Without surgery Lincoln's heart would give out in one to two years.
"We're to the point now where the left ventricle has tightened, and so his internal blood pressure is 200," Mitzi said. "Lincoln looks great, but unfortunately he has a serious heart condition."
Once again they are faced with the intense stress of their child going under for another open-heart surgery and the financial and emotional burden it causes their family.
"We're going to Boston April 20," Mitzi said. "On Monday we go in for pre-op, on Tuesday he has cardiac catheterization diagnostics to make sure what they're seeing and the pressure, and on Wednesday he'll have surgery. He'll be in the hospital for a week after surgery recovering, and then they want us to wait a week for follow-up."
The family has four other children, Grant, 14; Anna, 8; Harrison, 5; and Kate, 1. Mitzi and her husband Jacob have to leave their other children for three weeks to be by their son's side.
"It can be all consuming," Mitzi said. "A lot goes into preparing traveling there and arranging to stay there for three weeks and making sure our kids are taken care of while we're gone."
Mitzi and Jacob's parents are coming into town to stay with their other children while they are gone. Their pastor and Jacob's brother will be traveling to Boston as a support system for the family.
The financial burden of the surgery is massive for the family. Mitzi said they already face a large pile of medical bills from Lincoln's regular check-up visits.
Their three-week trip for surgery will set the family back more than $600 for boarding at the patient family housing provided by the hospital, $1,600 in plane fare, approximately $300 in cab fare to travel once they arrive and approximately $1,500 for food. These costs do not include insurance deductibles and medical bills not covered by their insurance.
"There are expenses above that, because I'm out of work and I don't have vacation or sick time because I'm part time," Mitzi said. "My husband has some vacation time at his work, but if you're not home and you're not working you're not only not bringing income, you are (also) spending it."
Mitzi said that the family has applied for Medicaid, but their annual income puts them just above the qualifying line.
"We do qualify for NC Choice, but when you have that you have to drop your health insurance. And if we drop insurance on Lincoln and then we pull him back on for whatever reason then they can gouge you on the prices, because he was dropped and not laterally transferred," Mitzi said.
She said that each year the family has a $5,000 deductible, which they always meet. Their insurance covers their expenses with an 80/20 split.
There is the chance that Lincoln will have to face more surgery in the future due to the effect that puberty will have on his growing body and his heart.
"When they go through puberty the valves calcify. After he goes through puberty this may have to be addressed once more because of the metabolic demands of puberty," Mitzi said. "There is a possibility that he may need a pacemaker, but we hope it won't come to that."
Despite the challenges, the family has a very positive outlook on Lincoln's upcoming surgery, and they feel confident that this will be just what he needs to live the life he deserves.
Lincoln said that he's not afraid of surgery. However, he's just ready to be in recovery and back at home.
"I'm not nervous," Lincoln said. "I just want to be done with it. I want to come home and play my Pokemon video game. I just hope that this surgery makes me better, and that I'll be done with surgery for good."
Shady Grove Baptist Church has set up a fund to help the family with medical bills. Checks can be made to the church with a note to deposit in the Lincoln Reavis Fund. Checks can be mailed to the church at 3808 Center Rd., Boonville, NC 27011.
Those interested in helping may also go to any Wells Fargo and make a deposit into the Lincoln Reavis Donation Fund.
A fundraising group that calls itself Friends of Lincoln is also organizing a benefit at Boonville Elementary School multi-purpose room on April 13. There will be a rook tournament and bingo. The cost is $40 per team.
There will also be hot dogs, drinks and snacks for purchase. Food can be purchased starting at 6 p.m. and rook and bingo starts at 7 p.m. For more information about the event you can call David Casstevens at 468-2393.
Reach Lindsay Craven at 679-2341 or at firstname.lastname@example.com.

So you've probably noticed something about Google's new privacy policy. Which is kind of a misleading name, since it mostly means they're going to combine all the data they've collected on you through every Google service you've used, from Youtube viewing history to Google browsing history. The goal is to have one single profile for every Google user, quite similar to what Axciom Corporation does. (If you didn't know, Axciom is a company that maintains profiles of millions of Americans, which they sell to anyone willing to pay, from marketeers to politicians. (They actually play a pretty big role in US elections, now.)) So anyways, if you're anything like me, you fucking hate this. So here's some links to inform yourself and also kind of opt out of that (by basically deleting all of your Google search history):

The Board of Commissioners for Elkin City Schools recognized outstanding faculty members and an art student night at the monthly meeting Monday.
Dr. Randy Bledsoe and Chairman Norman Foley were absent due to a meeting of a national school board convention they were attending.
Adam Beshears, an art teacher at Elkin High, presented Mallie Hutchens' artwork to the board. She shook hands with the board members before her art was put on display in the ECS Central Office lobby.
Elkin Elementary Principal Tom Caton presented an award to Julie Reed as the Elkin Elementary Teacher of the Year. A Teacher Assistant of the Year award was also given by Caton to Kristy Simmons, also of the elementary school.
Principal Pam Colbert of the middle school honored Emily Morrison with the middle school's Teacher of the Year Award. Principal Joel Hoyle of the high school presented his award to Kali Teague.
Elkin High Assistant Principal Casey Morrison honored the Bus Driver of the Year, Robert Royall.
The board heard the budget amendments from Jan Zachary, the finance officer for Elkin City Schools.
While usually tasked with telling the board the grim prospects for the budget, Zachary was able to give good news to those present Monday. State revenue for exceptional children, technology, and teacher assistant and custodian salaries came in, although some were more than others.
Revision #26 to the budget involved state revenue of $5,116, teacher assistant salary/benefits of $5,000, and custodian salary/benefits of $116.
Revision #28 gave $6,001 of state revenue, $6,000 to mClass Reading 3D computer equipment, and a single dollar toward "technology."
Revision #29 gave the exceptional children's' program $11,916 of state revenue, $6,370 to teacher assistant salary/benefits, speech assistant salary/benefits got $2,690, and part-time services salary/benefits received $2,856.
The board also heard the first readings of several policy changes, which corrected the wording of several policies for clarity.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Johanna1030 Cailyn Smoking Slipper Love the shoes,it fits perfect on me.The color is so unique. January 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cunniha Fun & Funky This is such a fun and funky loafer. Well made and great color with a fun scarab embrodery. I am an 8 1/2, but bought an 8 (based on other reviews). I have not worn them yet. The 8 seems to fit (a little snug), but am wondering if I should have gone with my usual 8 1/2. If you wear hose may be ok with small er size. Im not sure yet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by ArkSarah beautiful these really surpised me, they are a suede material with the sheen coating. They run a little big. I'm normally a 9.5 or 10 in revas and the thora's so i ordered a 9.5. The 9.5 ran a little long, i could probably use a 9. So size 1/2 size down. October 9, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Gee21 Smoking slipper runs slightly lonh The shoes are absolutely beautiful, impeccably made and definitely my new favourite pair. However, I am usually a standard size 9/49 and these shoes were too long so my feet slipped out when I walk. Luckily, I wear insoles so with them inside the shoes fit but keep it in mind when choosing sizes. September 11, 2013

The Lilly Project
The Lilly Project for the Theological, Spiritual and Ethical Exploration of Vocation has been a university-wide program dedicated to helping students to engage the larger questions of meaning and purpose, and to discern their vocation -- their calling in life. Funded in part by a generous grant from Lilly Endowment, Inc., the Lilly Project has become embedded in the intellectual and residential life of the university.
Opportunities for members of the community:
- to consider issues of vocation
- to engage in and reflect on service
- to explore meaning-making life choices through a variety of academic and co-curricular programs
Our definition of "vocation"
Vocation, as we have used it in the context of the Lilly Project at Willamette, does not mean strictly religious vocations; neither does it refer to building a skilled workforce. Rather, it means the way in which we live out our passions in the world, the way in which our values, our commitments and our beliefs are embodied in our choices about work, about family, about our political and social lives.
Exploring vocation
Means talking about engaging the larger questions of meaning and purpose, questions that, we hope, inform students' decisions and shape their lives, both during their time here and after graduation. We are talking about vocation in the context of a liberal arts education, one that opens up choices and options, one that teaches students how to think critically, inquire freely, lead wisely, serve generously and live with integrity.
How we live out our passions in the world; the way in which our values, commitments and beliefs are embodied in our choices about work, family, community life and civic engagement.
The Lilly Project at Willamette has been funded in part by a grant from Lilly Endowment, Inc.
Lilly's new home
Programs for exploration of vocation including retreats, Big Life Plan, vocational discernment grants and vocational discernment counseling are now housed in the Career Center on the third floor of th University Center. For more information, contact Jeani Bragg, director of vocational discernment and leadership development.

Been thinking about this all morning. For me, Cata is an obvious choice for #4. I didn't even play it until recently because it didn't hook me.
Burning Crusade is my choice for #1 because I'd only been playing for a little over a year when it hit, so it added cool new stuff and filled me with a new sense of wonder. With a new land to explore, new races to play..........I just had fun back then.
2 and 3 are where I waffle a bit. On the one hand, Vanilla was great, huge, fun and new. But on the other hand, revisiting Northred was, for me, a completion of a long journey that began back in WC3. The feeling I got stepping off the boat in Northrend and finally being able to take the fight to Arthas was really cool.
Honestly, after Northrend, it's like sequelitis. All I wanted from WoW was to see WC3 finished. MoP looks cool and all, but I've seen the story end. Everything after Wrath just feels artificial to me.
I want a mmorpg where people have gone through misery, have gone through school stuff and actually have had sex even. -sagil
I think I was just into the story a lot more with Wrath, the whole lich king deal and just the awesomeness of him, I didn't feel that in cata, and the king makes illidan look like a turd.

I cannot believe he ranked BC as last! It was far and away the best MMO experience ive had. I played vanilla and WotLK, never made it to Cata and I certainly won't be back for MoP.

Confusius say: Man who go to bed with itchy bum wake up with stinky finger
From first to last for me it's:
#1 Original
#2 WotLK
#4 Cata
Like many here, I've played MMO's since the beginning. What has always drawn me into the genre was the virtual world aspect and Vanilla really did a wonderful job in that category. I fell in love with the world, the dungeon's and the Horde vs Alliance, the open world pvp, the comradery of the server only bg's and just that feeling of an awesome epic adventure.
I pick WotLK second again because of the virtual world aspect, I absolutley loved the zone designs and learned to live with a few things that really turned me off, that were introduced with BC. I loved the world design but hated the direction the game was continuing to follow.
When BC released I absolutley hated it. I hated them for bringing the whole E-sport thing into the game. I hated the idea of Shaman's for the Alliance and Pallies for the Horde. I hate the idea of two sworn enemies sharing a capital city, I could go on and on. I quit shortly after BC released and didnt return until WotLK.
When Cata was released, I bought into the hype. Revamped world etc. etc. I leveled my main to 85 in a week, tried all the dungeon's. Tried to level a new toon through the revamped content, got to about lvl 30 and was bored to tear's with the ease and the no challenge of the leveling game.
I wont be picking up MoP. I hope the expansion is enjoyable for those that do. WoW is not a game that cater's to what I want in an MMO and that's ok.

Vanilla will always be #1 for me because the whole game was fresh and unexplored. I've only played 1-2 months at the start of each expansion. I had alot of fun the first couple of months in Cataclysm with healing the challenging heroic 5-man dungeons, after that I quit though since I don't enjoy raiding.

Burning Crusade was absolutely the best, mainly because of Karazhan, arguably the best raid Blizzard has been able to generate. Beyond that, the raid content in comparison to vanilla, and in fact all other subsequent expansions, was extremely high quality. Many of us will never forget the intensely complicated fights such as Kael'Thas and "Hot Potato" Lady Vashj.
Cataclysm made for a great leveling experience, but raids, at least initially, were a bit too challenging for too long and caused many players to quit due to an inability to progress or guilds to fall apart because of the intense focus required to down the initially un-nerfed bosses.
Vanilla was extremely buggy and grindy for far too long.
I will never play WoW again.

My list is almost the opposite lol:
1) Burning Crusade
I absolutely loved this game. I saved up my gold before the launch just so I could go flying around. I spent hours just flying, doing absolutely nothing, but flying. The zones had fun pvp aspects to them. i can't count the hours I spent capturing and fighting horde in hellfire. Then there's The Black Temple. Next to Onyxia, it's the best dungeon I've ever played. Period.
2) Orignal WoW
This is a close second. If the original had flying mounts, it'd be number 1. There was so much to learn and do. I can remember my first time into deadmines. I was instantly hooked. the Onyxia and Ragnaros fights are both in my top 3 of all-time best boss fights.
3) Cataclysm
I have to admit, when Cataclysm came out, I wasn't playing WoW much. I would log in to talk to friends, and that was about it. I missed the initial raids and really didn't get back into WoW until MoP was announced (I'm a pandaren fanboi, go ahead and flame me). The reason I really liked this expansion was that it made leveling alts fun again. The old world was stale and I could tell you almost every quest word for word. Cataclysm changed almost all the quests, or made them a little different.
4) Wrath of the Lich King
This was by far the worst of the expansions. It suprises me to say that, because I love Norse and Norse-like Lore. Which, let's face it, Northrend is like the old Norse world. The biggest mistake was only including a one role class. I know that DK can dps very well, but I hate DPS...so that only left tanking for me. I suggested a million times that Blizzard should include a Necromancer class, that got multiple pets (they finally listened when they made demonology warlock get 5+ pets lol). It would've been simple to include, as the DK and Necromancer could've easily shared the same starting area, but oh well, it doesn't end there. The great pvp games from BC were missing. The zones and quests in Northrend barely ever had Horde and Alliance crossing swords (or whatever weapon you use). There were really only two good things I liked about WotLK. First was the Death Knight starting area. I liked the storyline, and it was fun to be "evil" for once, and the climatic end battle was simply fun. The second was fighting Arthas. Now I think it was just too simple to kill probably the worst baddy since archimonde (in WC3). I did like the fight though, and it was fun.

WOTLK was best expansion for me and worst was vanilla wow. I don't even know how somebody can say that vanilla wow was best part of the game, classes was not very good balanced and i can remember how weak was feral druid compared for example with pala. With Cata we got finaly class balance and today every class can be competitive. Also i think that after WOTLK CATA have best story, i enjoyed so much to play with ''Indiana Jones'' :)

4. Cataclysm, this is the only time I had a real long break from wow, was away for 9 months of it. Been back since december, the launch of cata was hideous.
3. Wotlk, only got into it when they launched the cross server dungeons that so many folks bitch about these days.
2. TBC, thoroughly enjoyed this for the cool raid bosses, very fond memories of running Karazhan every friday night, awesome.
1. Vanilla, got my cheap battleground titles, raided a little prior to that. 40 man raiding although painful was a blast once you was into them. Days when epic was really epic <3
Edit: As a foot note, the social side has evaporated with time, very few people are around that were there from the start, and the community is significantly worse than at launch. I'm not having high hopes for MoP.

Best to worst:
1) BC -> no easy mode raids e no lobby wait... lots of pvps in the world (meeting stones);
2) WoTLK -> nice story and zones... also loved the new raids, but BC was better;
3) Cataclysm -> terrible expansion... terrible end game raid (DS)... too easy mode and lobby wait... the world seemed empty. No epic fight...
I didn't play the original WoW, so I put it out of my list.
But I can say that MoP isn't going to be all that good. I tried the Beta for some weeks before GW2 was released and I think the game became too easy with the raid finder, JP farm in dailies, and the new talent sistem, that made the homogenization worst. The classes are very similar in CDs, etc. And pokemon game isn't my thing.
Think I am just tired of WoW and can't go back to the gear grind after playing GW2.
Suzie I think you been ganked to many times. Pls recover and try your list again. And Im sorry have to ask a fair question how long have you been playing WoW? This is how it should of read:
4: WotLK Why? They introduced us to a faild so called "Hero" class I mean look at the DK now so freakin nerfed it not even a decent class anymore. The only thing good that came out of this x-pac was Wintergrasp. One of the best BG to date. As far as endgame ICC was it and after the 20th time it got old.
3: CATA Why? Blizz tried to bring back CC but failed. They mixed souronding zones up which is not a bad thing but to totaly mess with South shore and give it all to the horde that is the stupidest move Blizz made with CATA only reason they did it was because all the hordies cried that allly was camping Tarren Mill. Acualy that is the main reason why Blizz nerfs anything is because of all the crying about OP classes etc they give into the masses. TB was the next BG but it failed. They should fo done something to spiff up Wintergrasp to make it a lvl 85 BG. They made it madatory to all go and idle at SW or Org and its like IF and TB are now barren to a select few and talk about a waste with Dala. So now you can fly anywere with your monts but why? Cata did give us nice lvl zones my fav is Vashj'ir one of the most beautiful zones created to date.
2: BC because short and sweet Blizz done everything right with this x-pac from gettting Attuned and keyed to endgame with Kara and BT being one of the best raids todate. To using CC from world bosses to one of the best zone pvp quest that being Halaa let me tell you they did it right by giving the gaurds very high health it took team work and epic battles at times to control Halaa from the best into of new classes ya CATA gave us new classes also but BC was way better after all goblins and worgens only got starting zones. BE and Dranei got their own Starting cities. From the into to Aren pvp to very cool mounts. Not to mention the intro of dalies. Believe it or not but lvl 70 felt real for a cap not as fake as lvl 85 does at times.
1: Vanilla? I mean lol why did you even include it in the x-pac count down? its Vanilla for a reason.
Oh my creditals is the fact that I have been playing since Vanilla. When hunters used mana still.
I think WoW maintained a degree of challenge and Blizzard most of its integrity untill around 6 months after the liche King . It was the cross server group finders that killed off world pvp . . I would say I had most fun in the initial 3 years of WoW . It was a superb game . It wasn't too difficult nor was it too easy . .Even though there is a steady decline now and I think and not a shade on the game it once was it still does battleground and arena pvp very well . The rest of the content ( a little endgame content aside) is so easy even very young children couldn't fail . I wish Blizzard had taken different choices and maintained a degree of challenge . Its sad to see what its become now .

I don't Forum PVP. If you feel I've attacked you, it was probably by accident.
My list:
#1. BC - Expanded Vanilla without destroying it. My only complaint is the Draenei starting zones could have been better.
#2. Vanilla - Great fun, huge world, lots of dungeons, and slow grindy progression by today's standards.
#3. WOTLK - Huge world nicely crafted. But use of phasing broke quest grouping and a tad too much storyline questing for my liking.
#4. Cataclysm - Destroyed much of what I liked from Vanilla. Azeroth content became gimmicky and far too dense plus way too much storyline questing for my tastes. Phasing almost everywhere. Questing became a nearly pure SP activity. Not that all that many players even bother with questing any longer.

Back to top.
It's that time of year. The leaves turn majestic hues of red and gold. The air becomes fresh and crisp. We can finally put an extra blanket on the bed and cuddle up with a cup of hot tea. Yes, it's fall. We just spent 8 months killing ourselves to get into that bathing suit, but now we've replaced it with a worn pair of jeans and a much more relaxed attitude towards food. After all, it's the holiday season, and no one'll notice a few extra pounds under layers of clothes. A little extra weight just gives us a New Year's resolution to focus on, right?
Wrong. According to a recent study by researchers at Sweden's Linköping University, those 4 weeks of celebrating can actually lead to long-term weight gain.
Essentially, the researchers took a group of healthy young people, increased their caloric intake by 70 percent, and lowered their exercise levels. They also had a control group whose diets weren't altered. At 4 weeks, the participants in the test group had gained an average of 14 pounds. After 6 months, and no longer on an increased-calorie diet, only a third of these participants had returned to their original weight. After 1 year, the test group members were each still an average of 3.3 pounds heavier. After 2.5 years, the "gluttonous" group continued to gain, while the control group still maintained a stable weight.
Now, most of us don't increase our calories that drastically for 30 days straight. Sure, there's Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving leftovers, Hanukkah, the work Christmas party, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year's Eve, and New Year's Day, not to mention the extra sweets, cocktails, and (ahem) fruitcake. But according to the New England Journal of Medicine, the actual average weight gain over the holidays is only 1 pound. (They obviously didn't poll my family or friends.) So what's the big deal? The problem is, a year later, the vast majority of people have not removed that pound. Continue this pattern over 30 or 40 holiday seasons and the problem becomes—quite literally—huge.
So how are we supposed to get through the holidays without causing weight gain? Here are eight effective ways to get yourself ready to beat the holiday bulge.

Questions about your workout program, diet, the latest newsletter, or anything wellness related? Chat with the overseer of Beachbody's fitness and diet development, who also serves as your Fitness Advisor on the Message Boards, Steve Edwards, on Tuesday, November 30th, at 3:00 PM ET, 12:00 PM PT. Go to the Beachbody Chat Room.
While personal health and fitness are typically the reasons people come to Beachbody, we're not blind to the fact that certain outside motivators are sometimes necessary to kick-start you into shape. Often times, the quest for love or companionship—or just plain old lust—is on your mind, and a P90X-shaped ego boost is needed to get you out the door and back into the dating scene. So now that you're physically and mentally ready to meet someone new, let's look at some activities that'll help you continue your newfound lifestyle while also putting you in a position to find a different kind of "exercise" partner.
The gym seems like a great place to meet active singles, but in truth, it's really not. First off, everyone's wearing headphones, and just think how annoyed you get when someone tries to talk to you while you have yours on. Not hot. Second, the cute guy or gal you have your eye on is either too focused on their workout, or it's left them too exhausted to carry on an interesting conversation. There are those rare moments when it's possible to make a connection, but your best bet is to look beyond the treadmill for that special someone.
Why not consider these ideas?
The most important thing to remember when trying to find a date through a shared interest is to always be yourself. Don't go to an activity you don't like just to meet someone, because if you do, then you're stuck! If you're not happy or comfortable with salsa dancing, your discomfort will come through loud and clear, and that's a huge turn-off for someone who finds that type of dancing muy caliente. It's OK if you've never danced or cooked or hiked or swum before, just be enthusiastic and willing to try new things. Keep at it, and that eagerness just might earn you a new friend . . . or more!

Dr. Colleen Boylston started her North Charleston pediatric practice 10 years ago with five patients and her mom working the front office. Since then, Sweetgrass Pediatrics has expanded to Summerville and Moncks Corner, while the number of pediatricians will grow to 16 this summer.
We are keeping up with the growth and needs of the community, says Dr. Boylston.
Her practice reserves time for same-day sick visits, provides Spanish language services and accepts all insurance carriers, private and Medicaid. Plus, our physicians are trained to care for high-risk infants, provide breastfeeding support and handle developmental delays, ADHD and adolescent care. We even have a board certified pediatric sports medicine doctor. Together this allows us to provide superior medical care and guidance from birth to college.
People know we care about their children, and they tell others who come to see us, too. Colleen Boylston, MD Medical School Creighton University Residency Medical University of South Carolina

Did anybody read heart shaped box ?
...yep...and found it quite tasty....
Indeed, I have read it. He is his own writer, but a lot of his dad rubbed off onto him. Great read!
Check this link:
To answer your question, yes, I have read Heart-Shaped Box. I have also read Horns and 20th Century Ghosts. I'm eagerly awaiting his next, NOS4A2. I've also read about a quarter of his graphic novel series, Locke & Key. While he does write in the same broad genre as his dad, Joe's writing style is quite different.
Read it for the second time a couple of weeks ago. Good book, really enjoyed it. Horns and 20th Century Ghosts by JH are also good reads.
Heart-Shaped Box is awesome. Horns is awesome. 20th Century Ghosts is awesome. Locke & Key is awesome. Good lord, the dude's Twitter feed is even awesome!
Basically, what I'm saying is that Joe Hill's work is well worth your time.
Was not a big fan and I went in with an open mind (referring to the novels).
Seemed like a lot of the same things kept happening in slightly different locations and situations with the same predictable people.
Some of his shorts were great, however, and that One in particular...spectacular. Not going to point the great one out. Most of you can't do your own work...and I'm gonna be the one to do it? Nope.
Have not read his graphic stuff. No interest in the genre unless if propagates to watchable film...(I'm think WD right now) but good for him.
I'm reading it now. It happened to be in a box of books my daughter gave me.
I prefer Horns to Heart Shaped Box. Thought it more believeable and real. His style is less wordy a little more raw. Locke and Key is amazing. Really, what do you expect? Both of his parents are brilliant and he has raw talent.

Panton Chair
Dark furniture grounds a bright Panton chair and painted floors.
"Yellow and turquoise together are quite the flashy combo, but here it all gets very sophisticated against a clean-lined velvet sofa in dark plum and beige panelled walls," says Arren Williams, stylist and founder of the design blog, Arren Williams Design Lab. "Take out those two key bright colours, and replace them with neutrals, and you'd have quite the safe, chic space – though if you ask me, it's the neon colours that make the room really work."
