There goes my plan [GW2]
Another weekend, another beta event. Guild Wars 2 continues its path towards that still indefinite launch day, and from the current experience it just might launch smooth as butter. Let me give you a run down of what I experienced during these three days.
From the copious amount of articles, posts, and videos of every class I savored before I had any chance to play the game, I had picked the probable first three classes I will play for release. In order: Charr Elementalist, Norn Ranger and Human Mesmer. Playing the Elementalist until around level 20 last beta I confirmed my love for the class, and assumed everything would remain on this order. Now… I'm not as sure anymore.
The Ranger was actually the first profession I created last event, but only this time I gave a more detailed look into it, specially testing all weapons available to it. Just like with the Elementalist, all weapons feel very versatile and with very different functions. All but one: the greatsword. That weapon is amazing.
If you didn't play with the greatsword, you haven't seen the Ranger
Never I felt so agile as I did while playing with this weapon. The Swoop skill, a high-speed, high-damage and low-cooldown charge attack keeps you moving quickly between packs of mobs, and the first multi-skill Slash/Slice/Power Stab clears large groups with wide slashes, making this one of the best melee weapons/profession combinations on the game. Trust me: if you didn't play with the greatsword, you haven't seen the Ranger. I'm really considering changing it to be my main character once the game comes out.
But even if I have a new-found love for the ranger, the profession I played the most is surely the Elementalist. The flexibility of this class is unparalleled, so while I may not play it as my first class, it's still one of my absolute favorites. I just might switch between both. Argh, choices!
Additionally, I also played until level 12 with the Guardian, and I quite enjoyed the class. I'm really into the heavier weapons on Guild Wars 2, and here it's no exception: the hammer is a joy to wield, and have very satisfying animations that fully convey the weight and power of the weapon. It's a resilient profession with enough DPS for very high survivability, and a great number of support skills to make him a powerful addition to any group.
Considering I also played with the Necromancer and the Mesmer last beta, I am now only missing the Warrior, Engineer and the Thief. Well, I should remove the thief from this list. I created it before my guardian, and… well, hated it. The initiative mechanic goes against the removal of energy from all other professions, and simply doesn't feel right on a game where everyone else is just managing cooldowns.
Ascalonian Catacombs
This being the only "proper" dungeon available during this beta, the final boss King Adelbern was very high on my hit list. After leveling with the Elementalist as fast as I could on the first two days, I managed to find a group of random but friendly strangers so I could have my first run on Ascalonian Catacombs. Boy, I was not ready for that.
Right after opening the first door, the first group of mobs can be brutal when you come from the leveling experience and jump head-first to every enemy you see. It took us a few attempts until finding the right balance, but we kept pushing through. Wipes? Yes, we wiped. A lot. But just like everything else about the game, wiping was designed on Guild Wars 2 to be part of the experience, not a terrible punishment for failure. Rallying after kills, reviving other players, even the presence of waypoints inside the dungeon make failure a learning process, which I really enjoyed.
I also appreciated the (I think) new addition for this beta: an anvil at the entrance you can use to repair your equipment, making it so you never need to feel too frustrated for dying in a single hit for some of the strongest enemies.
World versus World Jump Puzzle
Not an instanced dungeon, but I think the denomination still stands. Can I just say one thing? I love jump puzzles done right, and I'm pleased with how Guild Wars 2 implements them. They are hard, frustrating, and sometimes not rewarding at the end, but it really is one of those cases of "the journey is more important than the destination".
This dungeon has an interesting concept, where the traps present are (mostly) not triggered by your presence, but by other players. These can be used as a tool to stop your progress, which makes perfect sense considering this dungeon is inside the PvP environment. These traps are not really that hard, but getting hit just as you are about to make a hard jump will make you slightly slower, so it's still an interesting tool to harass your opponents.
If you have any interest on giving this a try, I really recommend getting in there and trying to discover by yourself how to do it. But if you really like to spoil the pleasure of discovery, or just isn't interested on going there at all but still want to know what the fuss is all about, I recommend this video by NomaD that shows a very well done, even if not flawless run through the entire thing in less than 15 minutes. It took me around one hour for my full run; some of the puzzles are really hard to discover for the first time, and even then can be tricky to execute.
Crafting / Gathering
I gave another chance to the crafting system as well, and it's really growing on me. Once I started making my first items, the concept clicked and I noticed how the supposedly "random" system is not really random at all. A lot of experimentation will indeed be required, but the materials used for crafting make a lot of sense, so with practice you'll be able to identify what type of result you can get out of the stuff you have in hands.
It all adds up nicely: crafting produces some pretty spiffy items you actually want to use; gathering is non-competitive and plentiful, and almost a necessity for everyone, even those that are not going to craft anything because it's something to sell for gold, and gathering drops upgrades for your weapons and armor you can't find anywhere else; gathered mats also take little bag space since you can right-click them and send to the bank from anywhere in the world. It's a great combination that motivates me to delve deeper into this aspect of the game.
Closing Event
ArenaNet really ramped up things this time around. With some really epic bosses, the presence of important NPCs such as Rytlock and Eir, and cool new mechanics, the final event was many steps ahead of the previous BWE. Check it out.
There were some comments on chat about sights of The Shatterer, the dragon lieutenant of Kralkatorrik, but I didn't get to see it. I also didn't captured a lot of the cursed players, but you can see some at the end of the video. It's a very cool mechanic and made the event much more special because of it.
More than anything, I was impressed with the game's performance: I did lower my graphics one notch since I was recording the video above and I wanted better framerate, but with graphic settings above medium I still had solid 30 frames per second most of the time, even during the major combats with dozens of players and more particle effects than my semi-lousy GeForce GTS 250 should be able to handle. We threw everything we could at the game, and it handled like a champ.

Campbell was only a few feet away from Barthelmass when he was hit in the left hand by the bullet. Campbell later told a detective that Barthelmass yelled at Poindexter: "Look what you made me do, you made me shoot this officer."
Things had gotten serious, and now asses needed to be covered.
In the police report, Hall wrote that Adams was "immediately accosted" by Poindexter when she arrived at the mall, that he "followed her without her permission" and that she asked a Lane Bryant employee "to call Galleria security because she was afraid of suspect Poindexter." Hall said, "I asked Victim Adams if she would prosecute Poindexter on the charge of Stalking to which she agreed." After Adams agreed to prosecute, Hall wrote, he decided to arrest Poindexter. But Adams, told by the Riverfront Times of the officer's claims, says forcefully, "They are lying. That's a lie. I did not say that."
The report justified Barthelmass' unholstered gun by stating that Poindexter "kept his hands in front of him as though he were trying to retrieve something from the waistband of his pants or pockets" -- even though no gun was ever found and no one testified that he actually saw a gun in Poindexter's hand. The officers scoured the field where Poindexter was arrested, but they didn't find anything. They interviewed Adonica Drake, Poindexter's girlfriend and a clerk at the Galleria's Avon kiosk. Poindexter had taken her to work that morning, so the officers asked to search Drake's car for "contraband." Again, they came up empty-handed.
Why did Poindexter run? He didn't return our requests for comment, but the police later told employees from Lane Bryant and Beauty Outlet that Poindexter had outstanding warrants, something that wasn't discovered until after Campbell was shot and Poindexter carted off to jail.
Richmond Heights asked the St. Louis County prosecuting attorney's office to issue a case against Poindexter for misdemeanor stalking and resisting arrest on Dec. 30, 1999. The prosecutor agreed and asked a judge to enter an order prohibiting Poindexter from contacting Adams. Adams tells the Riverfront Times she didn't know that stalking charges were being brought against him and said she was never contacted to be a witness and never requested the order prohibiting contact. However, the indictment lists Adams as a witness. Poindexter entered a guilty plea to stalking and resisting arrest and received a suspended imposition of sentence.
The Galleria fired Barthelmass -- the shooting was bad for the mall's carefully crafted image. Overland reprimanded Barthelmass and forced him to attend training in "use of force," as well as "shoot, not shoot" situations. Barthelmass, who is still working as an Overland cop, refused to comment for this story.
Calls to Galleria security chief Larry Beerman were returned by Koch, the spokeswoman. She says all of the Galleria's information on the incident "was put into that police report." Asked whether she had any comment about Adams' claims that Poindexter wasn't stalking her, Koch says that all of the information would be in the police report. She says she doesn't know how many times an officer might draw his gun on a weekly basis at the Galleria but stresses that the "public-safety officers [security guards] do not carry weapons." As for the number of police officers working secondary jobs at the mall, Koch declines to provide the numbers on the grounds that "specific information about our public-safety policies and procedures would compromise what we are trying to do here in keeping our shoppers safe."
After several surgeries, Campbell was able to return to work. The St. Louis County Board of Police Commissioners gave him a commendation three weeks after the shooting. Campbell sued Hycel Partners, the owner of the Galleria, claiming the company was negligent in failing to properly train and supervise its security personnel, including Barthelmass.
Campbell declined requests for an interview, but his attorney, James Dowd, says the case is troubling. Whenever Dowd goes to the mall, he says, he thinks about the day his client was shot: "I think about that police-chase scene, and maybe I feel a little less secure knowing that, at least in that incident, they really didn't know what the hell they were doing. And that is kind of troubling -- guys with guns who don't know what they are doing and don't know why they are doing it."

This weekly course covers the most common questions videographers encounter when shooting and editing with DSLR cameras, from choosing a frame size and frame rate to understanding moiré. Authors Rich Harrington and Robbie Carman will also help you understand the impacts of compression and the difference between cropped (or micro 4/3rds) and full-sized sensors in cameras, and much more. This continual FAQ guide is a handy way to find the answers to the questions that plague you the most.
Richard Harrington: We have a lot of different stuff here and I think before we start getting into expensive rigs that are very, very dedicated or high specialty-- Robbie Carman: Let's go low-tech. Richard Harrington: Yeah, let's go low-tech, some of the basics. So, I've got a camera here, I got a strap. Robbie Carman: Yup. Richard Harrington: Strap can go around my neck and just extend it out. Robbie Carman: Hey, stabilization. Richard Harrington: Yeah. I'm transferring this here, so now there is less shake, because I have resistance and I could still even do focusing and turn. Just make sure this is a firm connection because if you're really cranking on this and it goes pop. Robbie Carman: The other thing about this, I've done this technique before, because this is a nice light weight kit, obviously straps are easy to walk around with.
If you do it all day, next thing you know, you definitely have a little bit of a pain in the neck. So there is another way of actually doing this that that you showed me that I think is really nice. It's kind of putting it under the arm and pulling on this. Now you're not pulling on your neck, you're more pulling on sort of the back part of your shoulder here and it gives you not the same, but again, a nice little bit of stabilization there. Richard Harrington: Yeah, you are just cranking that in or you could tighten it down, you can go under the elbow. Now some people will trap that there with the elbow and just get a little bit tighter. Yeah, you could shorten this, but it's just putting tension on it to really tighten that up. And another type of thing like this is the R- Strap, is another one that goes across the chest, camera slings to the side, you could pull that up for some good support.
You are just using the strap and that works well. Another device that we talked about before is using a loop or a viewfinder, and this can add another point of contact. Robbie Carman: So this is just a loop or a viewfinder, but before we talk about the points of contact, generally speaking when you're using a Live View mode, you only have really two points of contact, left hand, right hand, right? But if we go ahead and add that viewfinder here, just by snapping it on the back here, now I have a third point of contact, right? So my two hands, and then the actual loop on the back of the camera attached to mine, and this nice and even if you don't have a loop on it for a third point contact, you can easily create a third point of contact.
What I mean by that is using things that are around you. So for example, if you're shooting and there was a wall in front of you, like a brick wall or fence, you can place the camera on that. For example, I just place it on the table here and now I have another point of contact for stabilization. So you don't necessarily have to spend a lot of money to get some cheap stabilization. Richard Harrington: Well, one of the favorite terms I heard that a photographer introduced me to, "oh that's my trash pod," using the trashcan as a point to set the camera on so it's stable. You'll see trashcans out there, you'll see railings, park benches, anything that's flat and sturdier than you is a great place to set the camera. Don't set it and walk away.
It will get stolen or blow over, but just set on that ledge and use it, and that really cuts down on the shake. Robbie Carman: But you said, you mentioned the word pod, trash pod, but let's talk about some other types of pods, right? One of the most common ways that photographers use to stabilize their shot, even if they are not doing studio shots, they are out there in the field, is with a guy like this, like a monopod, right? Mono meaning one, so this is just a single leg monopod that I can extend out, twist these guys out, and put this you know on the ground or wherever I'm shooting, and I have a little extra stabilization. This is particular great when you have a heavier camera or heavier lens attached to the camera and it's little hard to handhold.
Richard Harrington: And I got a trick with this too. One of the things I like about this, if I extend it all the way, I can actually do things like, I'm not going to hit the ceiling here, but this gets pretty tall, going up at a concert to get over the crowd, doing basically a boom type move where you lift the camera up to reveal something, following the action around a corner. I have actually hung cameras and got low angle shots underneath vehicles. This opens up all sorts of things, and it let's you use your body. Robbie Carman: Just make sure that plate is tight up there.
Richard Harrington: Yeah correct; safety, cables, chains. Yeah, so yeah, this is normally designed so you're holding it in that, but this is a great way to just really extend your reach and get a lot of shots. Robbie Carman: And so besides the monopod of course, we have the tried and true tripod. Now this is a more of a photo type tripod base with the legs here, but the nice thing is we have a fluid head on this tripod and that's actually something I think is pretty important when people go to tripods for stabilization. If you're coming from a photography background, you might be used to sort of the ball head on the tripod, and it can work okay for locked down shots when we are shooting video, but if you're getting more equipment on the tripod, bigger lenses, various things on there, it's probably going to sag a little bit and not work too well. That's why we always suggest when you use a tripod and you're shooting the DSLR video, get a fluid head on here, and this can obviously range in price, but they're definitely worth it.
Richard Harrington: And what's nice is they actually have locks, but they generally lets you adjust the tension, so you can have it so you could freely position it and then when you let go, there is enough tension that it holds, as opposed to a photo tripod, where you have to keep unscrewing things, angle it, okay is it level, okay, tighten it all back down. They're fine, but you know, you brought up the point; this was a photo tripod that I adapted to a video tripod by just swapping out the head. Still lightweight, carbon fiber legs. I switched the feet to being rubber feet. They are a little more robust, make it a little more stable, but there's lots of ways a video tripod can be an adapted photo tripod, or you can get a dedicated video tripod if you have the dollars.
Robbie Carman: Yeah and of course, video tripods are--they're going to run the gamut from relatively inexpensive, aluminum and steel models, up to very expensive carbon fiber models that can handle huge big rigs. Richard Harrington: Now there are other types of approaches. Robbie Carman: There are. So, the next step after you've sort of gone and you've used the monopod or the tripod, one of the things that people find particularly challenging is stabilizing the shot when they're mobile, right? It's difficult to do that and sort of the first line of way or sort of the first method of doing that is with sort of shoulder mount or handheld rigs like this.
This particular one is made by a company called Redrock Micro. That one that you have there is made by a company called Zacuto, but there are ton of manufactures out there. And the real point with these is that they offer multiple points of contact. So on this one, for example, I have two handgrips here, a shoulder grip, and if I had a camera mounted I can even have a little loop on the back, where I can have a fourth point of contact. Richard Harrington: Yeah, let me have that for a second. Robbie Carman: Yeah sure, you snap that on the back there. Richard Harrington: And this just makes it nice and secure, so in this case, I could adjust the angles of these pieces here, so I'm just going to tilt this down a little bit to hit my shoulder blade.
It goes in, the eye is placed, it's going against my shoulder blade. I have two hands here, so I can walk, I could pan, I can rotate and if I had to I could let go with one arm and adjust the lens depending on the type of connection we had. Now this particular one is a prime, so there is really no zoom to adjust, but you could refine the focus, and this is just very comfortable for lots of shooting situations, so if you have to shoot for a long period. Now I will let you know that taking one of these devices through an airport security is pretty much a guarantee that they going to say, and what do you do for a living? But these do break down nice and small. I usually pack mine into my bag, so I don't have to deal with the hassle, but you could break these down into just the tubes and the kits, and all of these come apart pretty simply.
And then if you are doing lots of shooting or real hard-core stuff. Robbie Carman: This is more sophisticated rig that we don't have a camera on there right now, but you can see it's a little bit more complicated. We have sort of dual style pistol grips here, over the shoulder, which is really nice. And you can see on the back there, there's a weight, so we can actually counterweight this depending on what we have going on, on the front end of the rig here. Richard Harrington: Yeah, you adjust where that weight is positioned and so you if had a matte box and a follow focus and audio equipment and a monitor, this will get really front heavy. So having all that weight in the back, means that you're not holding the camera up, rather it just balances perfectly on your shoulder and you're just keeping it there safe.
Robbie Carman: And this one is also really nice, because it has this handle, so we can actually do some low angle work, holding the rig, we could have multiple handles. Now I actually think that's a really good point with all of these rigs, because that they're pretty modular in the way that you can adapt them. You can put on different bars and different attachments. Now there is one thing Rich that we don't have here that we should talk about, that is sort of the upper end of stabilization, would be sort of systems like the Steadicam system or Gimbal Systems, where we're going to have the camera sort of floating in a supported space, in the case of a Steadicam, with a vest on us and sort of a balance rig like that.
Richard Harrington: I got a couple things to say about that though, buying a Steadicam does not make you a Steadicam operator. If you're going to get one of these rigs, there tends to be classes, and training, and lots of practice. It takes years to get great at it. But you can absolutely do that with a DSLR. There are affordable ones from companies like Glidecam that are designed for lightweight cameras. Another way though to get smooth movement in, this a popular thing with DSLR, is the use of a slider, which is essentially a platform on wheels and you mount the camera and you've got the ability to go ahead and slide that back-and-forth, and that let's you get fluid motion for tracking shots, pans, et cetera.
Robbie Carman: These have become really popular. A lot of people use them for time lapses. I particularly love them for interviews, where we having not so much, you know, a very drastic move, but a nice sort of slow sort of move left and right, and that adds some sort of dimensionality to the shot, makes it seem a little bit more dynamic. Now the cool thing about these, this one you have right here is just sort of a push model, but they can have motors attached to them. So if you're doing this, for example, action photography or sophisticated time lapse photography, you can have it move in specific increments and things of that nature.
But this is great--come in different lengths depending on how much you want the camera to move. Richard Harrington: Right. And if after all of these things you still have camera shake, there's always postproduction. When we come back, we'll talk about strategies for eliminating camera movement during the editing stage.

You can have squash on your table in 20 minutes. It's possible! Are you leaping for joy yet?
These cute little half moons are great for kids. They're a nutritious alternative to fries or tater tots, and provide color that's irresistible. My toddler loves butternut squash with homemade chicken strips. Mashed, it's great baby food. (Shh- I'm a grown up. Don't tell anyone I'll eat it this way with a sprinkling of salt and olive oil.)
This is a great, fast base for soups, ravioli fillings, etc.
For ingredients, you'll need:
-a medium size butternut squash
-some olive oil or butter
Too simple, right? It's deceivingly good.
For tools:
-an oven-safe pan or dutch oven, with a lid
-a knife
-a vegetable peeler
-an ice cream scoop
-a cutting board
Step 1: Prep the Squash
1. Cut your squash in two, and use the ice cream scoop to clean out the center.
2. Flip the halves over, and slice off the hard portions at either end.
3. Peel the squash halves using the vegetable peeler.
4 .Slice each half into 1/2 inch slices, like half moons.
Step 2: Brown and Roast the Squash
1. Add the half-moons. Stir until coated thoroughly, and let them saute until golden-brown, about 10 minutes total. Stir throughout.
2. Add the lid. Then, pop them in the oven. Set your timer for 10 minutes, then check. If they pierce easily with a fork, but retain their shape, they're ready to serve.
3. For fillings or soups, add another 5 to 10 minutes. Or, leave the lid on and let the steam do the job.
Let them cool and have at them!

Bulls fans definitely understand the importance of having a quality head coach.
Don't try telling Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau that Monday's preseason opener against Washington isn't important.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is an asset to the Congress, former union home minister Buta Singh said here on Thursday.
The Congress leader even went to the extent of calling Manmohan a 'heera' (diamond).
When asked about Rahul Gandhi being projected as next PM, Buta Singh told reporters, "Rahul will definitely step on to the top rung of the ladder, but when he will do so will be decided by the Congress high command and the nation."
Denying reports of any difference between Congress president Sonia Gandhi and Manmohan, Buta Singh asserted that both were on the same page of policy matters.
About the BJP's remark that the UPA was "the hero of failures and zero in achievements", Buta Singh said the saffron party was confined to big cities, while the Congress was the only real national party with presence even in remote villages.

Malaysia Airlines (MAS) says its missing Boeing 777-200 aircraft last underwent maintenance less than two weeks ago, and that no issues were identified during the routine check.
A spokeswoman for the carrier tells Flightglobal that the aircraft, registered 9M-MRO, last had an A-check on 23 February performed at a hangar at Kuala Lumpur International Airport. No issues were identified during the maintenance, she adds.
The MAS 777 has so far clocked over 53,400 hours and 7,525 flight cycles, she says.
The aircraft, which was performing flight MH370 from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, lost contact with the Subang Air Traffic Control at around 02:40 local time on 8 March. Its last reported position was over an area of sea between Malaysia and Vietnam.
Malaysia has since said that the aircraft could have performed an air turn back and has expanded the area of search. It is also looking closely at four names on the passenger manifest and working with terrorism units from various countries.

Eighties pop icon George Michael appeared in magistrates court yesterday and admitted crashing his car into a branch of Snappy Snaps in London while under the influence of cannabis.
The former Wham! star, whose real name is Georgios Panayiotou, also admitted possessing cannabis at the time of the accident, which occurred in Hampstead, north London, in the early hours of 4th July.
The police found Michael slumped at the wheel of his Range Rover, with the engine still running. He had smashed a window and damaged wood panelling at the shop. When the police tried to rouse him, he attempted to put the car back into gear.
Police say Michael appeared "spaced out". They also noted he was "sweating profusely" and had "dilated pupils". A blood sample taken later confirmed the presence of cannabis in his body.
The 47-year-old pleaded guilty to two charges: possession of a class B drug and driving while unfit through drugs.
Admonishing Michael, district court judge Robin McPhee said: "I make it clear the options in respect of sentence remain open, including the power to imprison.
"It is a serious matter. Your driving was extremely poor and there was an accident. There is also a conviction from three years ago."
He handed Michael an interim six-month driving ban and told him to reappear on 14th September for final sentencing.

Fed up with poor offensive line play through the first four games of the season, the Ravens made a decisive move on Tuesday to change that by acquiring Eugene Monroe, the Jaguars' starting left tackle.
On the surface, this means Bryant McKinnie is probably pushed to the bench and makes him the apparent scapegoat for the line's woes to this point. But let's face it: McKinnie has been far from the only problem.
Across the board, the Ravens offensive line has played well below its capability this season. The Ravens running game ranks among the worst in the league -- 28th in rushing offense (64 ypg) and 30th in yards per carry (2.6).
According to stats website Pro Football Focus, the Ravens have run to the left side -- McKinnie's side -- 21 times. They've run up the middle 35 times and run to the right side 37 times. (This doesn't count four rushes by Joe Flacco, three of which were kneeldowns.)
So it's clear that the Ravens run blocking problems go well beyond McKinnie. Kelechi Osemele, playing next to McKinnie, has not progressed this season after moving to left guard for the playoffs. Center Gino Gradkowski isn't driving people off the ball. Right tackle Michael Oher has the lowest run blocking grade of the group, according to Pro Football Focus. Even Pro Bowl guard Marshal Yanda has struggled at times.
The offensive line has been called for nine penalties, with every starter flagged at least once.
And quarterback Joe Flacco has been harassed plenty this season when he drops back to pass. He's been sacked 12 times, and he was hit 12 times by the Bills on Sunday.
"We've got to be more physical with the inside part of our pass protection," coach John Harbaugh said on Monday, "and give Joe more depth to the pocket and keep Joe more clean. Joe does not need to be under the pressure he's under."
Acquiring Monroe is definitely an upgrade. He makes the Ravens better and younger, which was one of their themes throughout the offseason. At 26, Monroe is eight years younger than McKinnie, who you might recall celebrated his 34th birthday on a party bus recently.
To be sure, McKinnie has never helped himself with a questionable work ethic, and he has never been too far from Harbaugh's doghouse. So now he looks to be headed to the bench.
But there are four other starters up front that need to start pulling their weight, too.

I was born in West Siberia, Russia. I'm part Native, so that's why I can pass as an Asian for movies.
I moved to Florida when I was 7 years old. When I was a kid, I was super good. As soon as I turned 14, I was just a terrible teen; so bad that my mom sent me back to Russia to live my relatives. I moved to Russia for 8 months at 15. I turned 16 in Spain and lived there for a few months, then moved to Australia for 8 months. I came back to Florida at 17. After those hurricanes hit, I came back to help my mom rebuild her Florida home and then got my GED and started college…and then porn came in.
I started college in Florida at 17, I came into porn at 18, and I left after 5 months. I got my license and worked in loans in West Palm Beach for a few months and totally hated it, so I came to visit a friend in L.A. I decided to stay, and fell back into porn again. I'm graduating with my associates degree in Liberal Arts from an L.A. community college this June.
I left the (porn) business in November 2008. I changed my email, my phone number, and moved to the valley from downtown L.A. I just got so tired of being who I was. I partied way to much and I wanted to understand who I was. I wanted to go back to college and have a family. I did all that.
I have a beautiful 2 year old daughter. She makes me believe in miracles. She is my co-pilot.
I actually love being a single mom. I'm very simple.
MayasAngels.org is very special to me. I want to make a difference for animals. I love my animals and call them my kids all the time. This is an organization to 100% to help cats and dogs with food, shelter and medication needs. I believe only in rescue and adoption, I don't believe in buying or selling animals for hundreds of dollar. This creates a supply and demand; and puppy mills and breeders try to make money off of them. This saddens me so much because certain people buy a dog for $800…then the dog grows up, the person gets bored and doesn't want it anymore, and gives it up. This dog ends up in a shelter, hoping and waiting for a home.
I have 7 dogs, 3 cats and 2 birds. All are rescued, and 2 of my dogs are deaf. I adore my animals and I create, and make, time for them. I wake up earlier to clean and play with them before school and work. I moved into a house with a larger yard and all hard-wood flooring, and I stay in the area so I can pop in during the day every few hours so they can go outside and see me. It's a lot of hard work, but it's so rewarding to have them all in my life. What I'm planning on doing is buying land in the valley and building my home, and putting up a manufactured home for the rescues that will be up for adoption. This is for the future. MayasAngels.org funds will then be used for the animals in my home that are up for adoption for proper loving homes. I also want to have a cow, horse and a couple dozens of chickens. Yeah, I know I'm crazy but I'm aware of it. (laughs)
We all have our regrets, but one thing is: I chose the worst man to have a baby with. I have the most amazing daughter in the world. I try my best to play both roles.
When I got pregnant–and during the pregnancy–I grew more and more. I was the type who never drank caffeine, and never tanned or dyed my hair. I avoided all stress when I was pregnant because I wanted so badly for a healthy child. On December 19, 2009 I gave birth and more changed. I became a mother and my life changed. I breast-fed her the first year–only breast milk–that's why I had my breasts done in August. I finally understood myself at 21, but at 22, when I gave birth, I felt like I was found and could never get lost again.
My number #1 job is to be the best mom. #2: Save lives and make a difference. #3: My on camera performance.
Maya Hills is an image, but I care about pleasing my fans and directors.
Men come and go. Never alter yourself to please a man.
Wherever my daughter is, that is home for me. No matter what happens, my daughter and my animals will always be with me–and that is where home is.
I love cooking, cleaning, hanging out with my kid. She loves all her animals, she calls all of them "baby" or "bebe." She's learning English, Spanish and Russian so she mixes all the words together. Sometimes, I have no idea what she's saying.
I really enjoyed my time off, I needed those 3 years to learn about being a mom, breast-feeding and being there for her 24-7.
I came back into the industry November 2011.
Save your money–but remember you can't take every booking, so it's OK to say no.
I'm always playing hip-hop and rap in my car.
I'm working on my book now. As for (my) clothing line, it will be for children and dogs.
I love humor, and real people, and men who are actually smart and know how to carry on a conversation.
(A real man should never) take or use a female's money. Get a fucking job.
I actually looked at (the porn industry) in a positive way, I could make a lot of money, save it, and use my fame to make a difference for animals. Plus I missed the sex on camera.

How giving became coolDecember 28,2012It was 15 years ago that Ted Turner needed something interesting to say in a speech — and decided, in a rush, to give away $1 billion.
"I was on my way to New York to make the speech," Turner recalled to me. "I just thought, what am I going to say?"
So, in front of a stunned dinner audience, he announced a $1 billion gift to U.N. causes such as fighting global poverty.
In nominal terms, before adjusting for inflation, that semiaccidental donation was, at the time, believed to be the biggest single gift ever made, and it has helped transform philanthropy.
Tycoons used to compete for their place on the Forbes and Fortune lists of wealthiest people. If they did give back, it was often late in life and involved museums or the arts. They spent far more philanthropic dollars on oil paintings of women than on improving the lives of real women.
Turner's gift helped change that culture, reviving the tradition of great philanthropists like Rockefeller and Carnegie. Turner publicly began needling other billionaires — including Bill Gates and Warren Buffett — to be more generous. That was a breach of etiquette, but it worked.
"It's a starting point for me of this modern era of high-profile big public giving," reflected Matthew Bishop, co-author of "Philanthrocapitalism," a terrific book about how the business world is reshaping philanthropy. "He called on others to step up, which did have a crystallizing effect on others. It allowed journalists and others who were talking to Bill Gates to say: 'Why aren't you giving more?'" Then they tormented Buffett with the same question.
Ultimately, Gates and Buffett made huge contributions that are transforming the struggle against global disease and poverty. My hunch is that Gates will be remembered less for his work on personal computers than for his accomplishments against malaria, AIDS and poverty itself.
Gates and Buffett are both now recruiters for the Giving Pledge, which commits zillionaires to give away at least half their wealth. The giving pledge adds to the expectation that those who have won the global jackpot should give something back.
Turner channeled his money through the United Nations Foundation, where it was leveraged to get other contributions so as to bring $2 billion to finance causes from malaria to polio, from climate change to family planning.
The gift brought new respect to the United Nations and made it increasingly fashionable for billionaires to worry about global poverty. These tycoons bring not just their checkbooks to the table but also a business sensibility that introduces greater rigor and evaluation to the world of bleeding hearts.
All this has helped shine a greater spotlight on neglected issues — which, in turn, has led to extraordinary results. A study this month reported that infant mortality around the world dropped by more than half from 1990 to 2010. That's millions of lives saved each year.
Of course, not everybody has gotten the memo. Take Donald Trump, who has contributed his name to a foundation but little more. An investigation by The Smoking Gun website described him as possibly "the least charitable billionaire in the United States," for he apparently gave the foundation just $3.7 million — over 20 years. Trump, who has said he is worth $7 billion, is not even the largest contributor to his own foundation.
(A spokesman for Trump suggested that it would be "totally incorrect" to characterize him as uncharitable, saying that he has also donated land in upstate New York for public parks and "millions of dollars" to other causes.)
Turner isn't shy about encouraging others to jump on board. When I asked if he had any advice for my readers, he grew particularly animated: "You don't have to have any money to make a difference; you can pick up trash walking down the street, and I do that all the time," he said. "You can volunteer your time. You can be a big brother or a big sister."
Look, it makes me a little squeamish to extol a billionaire, for our society already has too much worship of the wealthy — and, in any case, the working poor in America are often more generous in percentage terms (and in volunteering) than those far better off.
That said, it warms my heart that a mogul donated $1 billion to enliven a speech, didn't even put his name on the foundation and then let the money quietly save lives around the world.
If you're still reading, Donald Trump, it's your move.

Cliff May on the non-scandal about CIA "brainstorming" ideas to bump off high level al Qaeda operatives: "In a sane world, the scandal would be that for eight years our multibillion-dollar intelligence community only 'brainstormed' about dispatching agents to eliminate al-Qaeda operative wherever they could be found.If this mindset had prevailed in an earlier generation, U.S. troops would have landed in Normandy about 1959."
The latest bad news for Governor Jon Corzine: "Republican challenger Christopher Christie is pulling away from Democratic incumbent Gov. Jon Corzine and now holds a 53 – 41 percent lead among likely voters in the New Jersey Governor's race, according to a Quinnipiac University poll…. By a 39 – 20 percent margin, New Jersey likely voters have a favorable opinion of Christie, while 40 percent say they don't know enough about him to form an opinion. Corzine gets a negative 34 – 58 percent favorability." We'll see just how much time Obama spends trying to help him.
This might be part of Corzine's problem: "For the week ending on June 27th, New Jersey had the largest increase [for any state] in initial claims adding an addition 7,876 in just one week."
Well, at least the president now is being honest: he says he doesn't know "how high unemployement will go."
And his economic advisor Christina Romer has given up on trying to make up a number for jobs "saved or created": "It's very hard to say exactly because you don't know what the baseline is, right, because you don't know what the economy would have done without it."
Bob McDonnell has $5M (double what his opponent has) in cash on hand.
Marco Rubio doesn't like the "wise Latina" message.
Can health care be jammed through on a 51-vote majority through the reconciliation process in the Senate? Maybe, but it gets very complicated. A good explanation is here.
The better question: would Democrats have the nerve to pass nationalized health care and a massive tax hikes with only 51 votes? Tom Daschle and Bob Dole both warn against a straight partisan vote. "'I hope it doesn't come to that,' Dole said. 'If there's not a Senate Republican vote for the package, then the American people are going to be very skeptical.'" The Democrats have 60 votes in the Senate to 40 for the Republicans, and have a 255-178 advantage in the House, with two vacancies. Daschle said he "couldn't agree more" with Dole's warning about the political fallout from a partisan vote. Moreover, he expressed doubt that Democrats alone could prevail, because that scenario "assumes unanimity" he said, and that isn't the case.
A helpful breakdown on the cost, the taxes, and just how dishonest the accounting is, here.
Will Obama really veto the F-22 funding bill? "Several senior Democrats may defy party leaders on an important defense vote — and the behind-the-scenes arm-twisting is dividing the party's Senate majority. President Obama personally vowed to veto any defense bill containing additional funds for the F-22 fighter jet program." After all they could "save or create" 95,000 jobs.

I cant by the love of all things good, understand why I get the error: NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object MonsterSpawner.OnTriggerEnter (UnityEngine.Collider other) (at Assets/Scripts/MonsterSpawner.cs:25)
this is the part of the script that seems to be wrong? The particular line it is coplaining about is: if (!objectHit.getIsMonster())
The wierd thing is that everything is working as it is supposed to do? And the if sentence works as intended as well? Its just annoying getting the error, and I would like to get rid of it.
asked Sep 19, 2010 at 03:08 PM
It must be the case that the object which was collided with did not have a "DamageManagement" component at all (and therefore 'objectHit' would be null).
Since you're not checking whether it's null, you'll get this error.
To correct it, try this modification, which includes an explicit check for a null reference:
hope this solves the problem!
answered Sep 19, 2010 at 03:59 PM
duck ♦♦
Yes, this was indeed the problem :) Thanks The reason why this happend, was becouse each character had a weapon that collided first, and they did not have a damageManagement attached. So everything worked, just not when the weapons collided(Which they always did) I had been looking for "other.name" thanks for that also :)
Sep 19, 2010 at 04:33 PM Tabu
To those interrested, this is what the working code now looks like. Again, thanks Duck :) You made my sunday evening so much greater! :D

Have you tried importing your video at true full resolution? Also, are you recording interlaced or progressive? I'm assuming you're recording at 1920x1080i and not one of the progressive modes on the camera. I'd import and edit at 1080i full resolution, and then output to the lower resolution. Right now, you're going through 2x size conversions (once to go from max rez to the 960x540 (which is what I think the actual numbers are, a simple /2 of the 1920x1080, but I don't have imovie in front of me to confirm) - it'd be much better if you could just do 1x size conversion.
I'd also see if you could stay either interlaced or progressive all the way through. If it's interlaced all the way through, you will see jaggies and combs on your LCD screen, but shouldn't on DVD playback.
You don't need full FCP to do beautiful HD work. My first HD project on a Mac was done using FCE ($199) and it turned out very sharp. Even so, you should be able to get a better picture then what you are describing from imovie.

The Vampire Diaries
The Vampire Diaries' Nathaniel Buzolic Talks Pirates, Tattoos, and Finding His "Naughty Side"
Enigmatic original vampire Kol remains something of a mystery on The Vampire Diaries, but actor Nathaniel Buzolic is anything but. The charming Australian, who we're stoked to see back in Mystic Falls, was candid in an interview with Honest Reviews Corner, talking about everything from his TVD prep to his love for pirates. Yes, really.
So, how exactly does one prepare to play a thousand-year-old vampire with an attitude problem (besides mastering his English accent, of course)? "Essentially, I had to discover my naughty side," Nathaniel said with a laugh. "Kol does not worry about accountability for his actions."
And those actions are pretty heinous. Kol may love human batting practice, indiscriminate bloodsucking, and boozing with Klaus (Joseph Morgan), but Nathaniel's real interests are slightly safer, and definitely less murder-y. Chief among them, it seems, are snowboarding, photography, and pirates.
On snowboarding: "When I'm heading down a mountain, I can forget about the world for a short while. "
On photography: "I do love to capture beauty in this world. And photos can last the test of time."
On pirates, and if he ever had a pirate-themed birthday party: "I think my fascination came much later in life with pirates. I'd have a themed party this year if I could… PIRATES IT IS!"
Soooo…our invitation is in the mail, right Nathaniel?

Other female firsts in space remember Sally Ride
Sally Ride, who died way too young on Monday, became the first American woman to fly into space in 1983. She blazed a trail in which other women followed, and made great gains themselves. Here are comments on Ride by a couple of them. Eileen Collins, first female commander of the space shuttle: I am […] [Read More]

ABC's earth2100
Tuesday, June 2, 2009
Keywords: Politics, Economics
So I watched ABC's earth2100 tonight. I did not have very high hopes for this show (I often avoid TV in general), but I was pleasantly surprised, though I think their projections were still too optimistic.
First, I think that everyone must read Garrett Hardin's The Tragedy of the Commons, in which he famously declared that "[the] freedom to breed is intolerable." I should add that the amount of moral value that we accord human life is dependent on the quality of life. Historically, even as recently as the early 20th century, we have treated human life with relatively little value; in a country where the euthanasia of one person in a vegetative state could cause an uproar, it is hard to imagine that this same country had embarked on a civilian construction project, the Panama Canal, in which tens of thousands of Americans died. Historically, the amount of value that we accord to life has not been a function of religious awareness or moral advancement, but rather to the quality of life and the amount of capital and resources available per capita. It is no coincidence that the Black Death also marked the start of Western advancement and political reform. Of course, most people are oblivious to history and are thus not aware of this relationship. Perhaps this ignorance of history is why the Catholic Church smugly declares birth control as evil even though such a claim depends on a level of life value that cannot be sustained without population control.
Second, I like that ABC brought up the fall of Rome because most people have the faulty notion that Rome fell because of external invasion. And while external invasion may have been the proximate cause, the Rome's fall was really the result of a breakdown in the economy and trade and the collapse of various regions into autarky. By the time the city of Rome fell, Rome had already long collapsed from within. The result were the Dark Ages in which much of civilization and accumulated knowledge was lost for centuries. Civilization is very fragile, and the sort of collapse imagined by ABC is actually quite possible and had already happened to the civilization that most resembles our own.
Third, I liked the analogy that our problem is that we are drawing from our bank account and that we will soon realize that the account is empty. By consuming at unsustainable levels, we are effectively borrowing from the future, but because that borrowing is covering up for the current shortfall, many people will not recognize that there is a shortfall until the futures starts to collect on those debts.
Finally, our society loves to look for a technical solution to problems, because technical solutions are non-disruptive. But there are limits to what we can achieve with science and technology, and technical solutions can only serve as a catalyst. For example, over the past two or three decades, engine efficiency has steadily increased by 30%, but instead of converting that increase in engine efficiency into energy savings, we have squandered it on larger, heavier vehicles. Across the board, cars today are heavier than comparable models of the same class three decades ago, and compounded with more people driving cars of a larger class (e.g., SUVs), our average aggregate fuel efficiency has actually decreased despite our technical advancements. In another example, instead of ensuring food security, the world has squandered advanced in agriculture by growing in population. As Hardin noted in The Tragedy of the Commons, there is no technical solution. And as such, I think that earth2100 is far too optimistic, because it glosses over the need for a fundamental rethinking of the problem of externalities.

There seems to be a bit of mystery around an LES. Since it's a financial statement that utilizes lots of abbreviations and acronyms, it's easy to see how people may think it's complicated. But really, even though it IS a lot of pay information formatted to fit on one page, it's not difficult to locate the key information that matters each month. And it's important to do so because it's about your money. Here are some of the items you will want to "pay" attention to.
An LES is quite simply a monthly statement listing your military pay. It also includes the allowances you receive, as well as the leave, or vacation days, you have earned. That is why it is called a "leave" and "earnings" statement. Your LES may be accessed electronically at myPay. Coast Guard personnel may access their pay statements at the Coast Guard Pay & Personnel Center. Military personnel will need a login and password unless they access the site from their DoD computer using a Common Access Card (CAC). The latter is the safest way to view your financial record since the DoD network encrypts the information.
Your LES will establish how much money you will receive over a month. There are many changes to your LES, some which you initiate and others which may occur as a result of training or deployment, a change in laws or even a negligent debt. For sound financial health, it's important to stay on top of your monthly LES statement by paying attention to these items:
To understand each and every box on your LES, you can refer to the branch-specific Understanding your LES page on the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) site. However, here are the key boxes you will want to review:
The most important action to take if something looks amiss is to visit your finance office or administrative unit for help. You may learn that it was not a mistake at all, or your concern may be validated. In either case, it's a good idea to have an expert review it. If you are unsure of where to go, access the support page of myPay for help.

I'm another former user of L'Oreal ColorSpa who has finally tried Healthy Look. (I had bought 16 boxes when I realized it was being discontinued, but finally ran out.) I was disappointed that the range of colors was so much more limited and I couldn't get a light copper similar to what I used before. So, I bought 7B (Dark Blonde) preferring to give up the red rather than to go dark. What a surprise to find that I have lost the red *and* gone dark. Dark Blonde is a solid brown. It's not a bad color, but I didn't want dark hair that is very different from the box. This is much darker than my natural hair.
If you try Healthy Look, GET A MUCH LIGHTER SHADE THAN YOU THINK YOU WANT!
I also miss the sweet smelling conditioner of ColorSpa. This one isn't terrible, but it's not particularly nice, either. I don't know why L'Oreal changed from a very nice product (rated 4.1 on MakeupAlley) to a poorer one (rated 3.1 on MakeupAlley).

honestly, I love this stuff.
naturally, as an ammonia free hair dye, it is going to be harder to find a colour for you that you'll like, I usually buy just the colour I want, it's going to be a tad darker but it's AMMONIA FREE, it fades and doesn't damage nearly as much! for me anyways
this left my hair silky, glossy, shiny and with a radiant brown shade for about 1-2 months. I loved it. used it many times with good results,
then I started to switch around and mix perm and not perm and my hair was a mess.. I needed to go to a salon to really fix my hair up.
next time I dye it, I'll be using this. just because I know it hasn't done anything wrong. :)

So I bought Extension and the blonde in the extension did not match the golden blonde in my hair. So I went and boight this at the drug store, Light Golden Blonde" to put on my extensions. I wanted a semi-perm so that if a changed my hair color, the dye on the extensions would eventually wash off. Holly F***ing pissed, it turned them a brassy light brown color and dried them out considerably. Not happy at all. I certainly hope that a little head& shoulders will remove most of the color. I had dye other extensions with a perm color and they looked way healthier after, compared to this. Do not buy this and definetly do not use this product to dye extensions.

RUN...do not walk away from this LOreal product. They need to remove it from the shelf. I am a former hairdresser, that in a weak moment tried Healthy Look (haha) last month. It has ruined my hair. Dark Blonde is now a smokey, drab ,dark, reddish medium brown with no body or shine. I used the product EXACTLY as directed in the package . I called to complain and warn them of a faulty produce ...Guess what ? they asked what kind of shampoo I was using to wash it out !!! I told them this wasn't about shampoo, it was about BAD hair color !! She hung up on me...I pursued it again and they told me to use a harsh, cheap shampoo to help get it out of my hair. Well after 5 weeks...it is still an awful color and dried out with no body. I have used the best conditioner, it did very little to help bring any life back to my hair. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT !

I bought this in Medium Brown a month ago, and went back and forth about trying it based on the negative reviews. I have medium/light golden brown hair with more greys than I would like and blond highlighted ends that I wanted to even out to a medium brown. My biggest worry was that my hair would end up super dark and it would never come out. Anyway, the consistency of the color in my hair was sort of strange, it made my hair sort of waxy and matted feeling and I had some momentary panic that my hair was going to stay in huge clumps and the color wouldn't rinse out. I left it on no more than the 10 mins recommended to try to avoid super dark results, and had no problem rinsing it out. The end result is a little redder then on the box, but my natural color ALWAYS pulls red, no matter if I dye it on my own or have it professionally done. It did a good job at covering up the greys and blonde ends, and is only just a bit darker then my starting color. I actually think I was thinking it would be darker. I am not sure if I will repurchase. That will depend on how well the color holds up to washing. If I have my greys back in a week I will be definitely looking for something else.

Clearly the people rating this didn't do a patch test - I did! I went from blond to brown, which was the plan and it turned out the exact colour on the box within 10 min... no problems at all. I am glad this is a demi in case I don't adjust to being brown it supposedly washes out after 28 washes. Smells fine, hair feels good - would purchase again.

This hair dye was HORRIBLE.... I dyed it two days ago with the color black, and the color looks very fake and unnatural, it looks like my hair is a wig. The color is nothing like it looks on the box(the box makes it seem more warm toned) it is much much cooler toned, and I I have spent two days in the shower using various remedies trying to wash it out, and the color is very stubborn....

I purchased Healthy Look in White Chocolate 8 1/2 to lighten my dark roots without causing damage. I have naturally dark blond hair with highlights. The product was easy to use and there was no unpleasant smell. I only applied the color to the roots and left the product on for approximately 20 minutes instead of the recommended 10. I am very pleased with the results so far. The color blended my darker roots with the rest of my hair and left my hair in excellent condition. My only regret is that it will be gone in 4 weeks and I will have to recolor. However, to avoid the damage it is worth it.

Perry Says Arizona Law Not Right For Texas
By KRWG News
Texas – Governor Rick Perry says Arizona's tough new illegal immigration law wouldn't be right for Texas.
A new law in Arizona requires local and state law enforcement to question people about their immigration status if there's reason to suspect they're in the country illegally. The law also makes it a state crime to be in the U.S. illegally.
Perry said Thursday that such a law would turn law enforcement officers into immigration officials by requiring them to determine immigration status.
He says the extra duty would take law officers "away from their existing law enforcement duties, which are critical to keeping citizens safe."

St. Charles Bikers Free to Ride: Proposed Ban Struck Down
Categories: Follow That Story
|image via
The County Council voted unanimously, 6-0, against the ban. (One Council member was absent from the meeting.) Even Councilman Joe Brazil, who has been a fervent advocate for the bill (though supporting his arguments with questionable statistics and logic) and indeed sponsored the bill, voted against it last night.
Brazil told the P-D that though he and a majority of his constituents still thought there should be a ban, after hearing advocates both for an against the ban at last night's meeting, he thought an alternative measure pertaining to permits and equipment may also be adequate.
Not that any of that means he had to vote against his own bill, but, uh, ok.
The council may vote on these alternative measures--which would include a color coding system for the roads, and signs declaring visibility risks--on October 12.
But Brazil, surely you can't be content with trusting experienced bikers with their own safety, as the signs would do!
"If you want to ride on them and take chances, that's unfortunate, but you can't fix stupid," Brazil said.
Ah, that's more like it.

By Jim GaramoneAmerican Forces Press Service
WIESBADEN, Germany, June 7, 2004 "The first casualties after the extension were the hardest to bear," a 1st Armored Division spouse said. "But we all pulled together."
The spouse had attended a talk with Joint Chiefs Chairman Air Force Gen. Richard B. Myers at Baumholder a large U.S. post located near here. The post is the home base for the 1st Armored Division's 2nd Brigade and Division Artillery. The troops are part of the coalition force in Iraq. In April, DoD officials extended their deployment in Iraq by 90 days.
Myers, accompanied by his wife Mary Jo, thanked the spouses for their sacrifices and explained why it was so important for the division to remain in Iraq beyond their one-year "boots-on-the-ground" deployment. He asked them to remember what was happening in Iraq at the time of the extension decision. There were attacks in Fallujah, and renegade cleric Muqtada al-Sadr fomented unrest in Shia areas with his illegal militia.
U.S. Central Command chief Army Gen. John Abizaid determined he needed more troops. The 1st Armored Division and the 2nd Armored Cavalry Regiment were extended.
"Thank God for the 1st Armored Division, Myers told spouses here. "They've calmed things down quite a bit."
The division has been involved in calming the areas around Najaf and Karbala. The 90-day extension has allowed coalition commanders in Iraq to maintain a strategic reserve able to go where needed quickly, Myers said. The division also helped cover some of the shortfall when Spanish troops pulled out of the coalition in Iraq in May.
Myers said he realizes the sacrifices being made by the service members. But he and his wife also recognize the sacrifices being made by families. "We're here to tell you how much we care about your service and we thank you for what you are doing," said Mary Jo Myers to spouses here. "We know you have been through some really challenging times."
In Baumholder, Mrs. Myers told the spouses, "I have no panaceas, just keep putting one foot ahead of the other." She said she was proud to be one of them, and praised them for the support networks they have developed during the deployment.
The chairman took questions from the spouses. Most wanted to know whether the division would be extended in Iraq again. He said it would take extraordinary events in Iraq before he would bring that recommendation to Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld. He told the spouses that the decision to extend the division was a tough one, but given the events in the country, it was unavoidable.
Myers said the future deployments to Iraq also depend on events in the country. He said the U.N. Security Council may pass a new Iraq resolution as early as June 8. The resolution may mean more countries will participate in peacekeeping activities in the country.
The new Iraqi government is also up and working, and will assume sovereignty June 30. Leaders in the government have said they need coalition forces for the foreseeable future. But the coalition is training and equipping Iraqi security forces that will ultimately assume responsibility for security in the country.
But for the immediate future, the United States will maintain 135,000 service members in Iraq. He told the spouses that the Army is seeking a break of at least as long as the deployment itself.
"We have to be careful about deployments," he told the spouses in Baumholder. If troops and families deploy once, "you can gut it out," he said. But if the troops and families deploy again and again "it will start to wear on everyone."
Myers said no one wants a "hollow force" two or three years in the future.
At a press conference following the visits, he said the families impressed him with their strength. "When troops are deployed, when they are being wounded, when they are being killed, it's tough," he said. "The families that are left behind are an important part of the network that supports one another. What impressed me was their resolve. They understand, like the military members, how important this deployment is."

ELIZABETHTON — The Carter County Sheriff's Department responded to a stabbing on Monday night and found a man with a 9.5-inch kitchen knife sticking out of his upper left arm, but a day later investigators are still trying to determine if the wound was self-inflicted or caused by the man's girlfriend.
Deputy Larry Vaughn said he arrived at 606 Rock Hill Road, Watauga, about 6 p.m. Monday, where he found Gregory Lee Calderon, 29, had been stabbed in the shoulder.
In questioning the victim, Vaughn said Calderon admitted he had been arguing with his girlfriend, Amanda LeShae Wilson, 20, at their residence at 145 Wade Bulla Road, Watauga. He said she stabbed him with the knife. Calderon was then transported to Johnson City Medical Center.
Vaughn went to the scene of the stabbing. He knocked on the door and yelled for Wilson to come out. He said Wilson approached him from the woods near the house, but could give no explanation on why she had been in the woods.
When he asked her why a knife was sticking out of Calderon's arm, Wilson said they had been arguing and Calderon grabbed the knife from the kitchen drawer and told her that if she left he would stick the knife in his own arm and tell the deputies that she had stabbed him, causing her to be arrested and sent to jail.
Wilson said she told Calderon that she was going to leave. She said Calderon then stabbed himself with the knife.
Wilson's brother, Jeffrey Williams told Vaughn he did not see what happened but he saw Calderon leave the house and walk down the driveway. Vaughn said the phone call to 911 to report the incident came from a caller who was on Wade Bulla Road and saw Calderon walking down the road with the knife sticking from his arm.
Wilson was arrested on an outstanding warrant charging her with a second offense of violation of probation. She was taken into custody and transported to the Carter County Jail. Investigators had two interviews with Wilson on Tuesday but no other charges have been placed on her.
