Challenging Gender-based Violence Worldwide: CARE's Program Evidence
Stategies, Results and Impacts of Evaluations 2011 - 2013
CARE has worked in Papua New Guinea (PNG) since 1989, implementing long-term development projects and responding to emergencies including the El Nino drought and frost in 1997, the Aitape tsunami in 1998, the Manam Island volcanic eruption in 2004 and floods in the Oro province in 2007.
CARE continues to assist during emergencies, most recently supporting remote communities in Wonenara Sub-district of the Eastern Highlands Province with emergency water, sanitation and hygiene training and provisions after a severe outbreak of dysentery in the area.
We are also supporting remote and disadvantaged areas with improved governance, agricultural practices, water, sanitation and hygiene, education and HIV prevention and care. We are providing assistance to disaster risk management, working to address gender-based violence and support women with increased opportunities to generate an income.
We seek a world of hope, tolerance and social justice, where poverty has been overcome and people live in dignity and security.
Stategies, Results and Impacts of Evaluations 2011 - 2013
This report is an analytical review of CARE's programs and projects undertaken with partners and allies in 16 countries over the period 2005–2010. It explores CARE's principal strategies for achieving positive impact by drawing on a broad range of evaluations and other assessments produced over the period.
In Bougainville, Papua New Guinea, young adults are experiencing an HIV and AIDS epidemic that is placing their generation in even more danger after years of conflict.
Gender-based violence is one of the most widespread – but least recognized – human rights abuses in the world. Globally, one out of three women will be beaten, coerced into sex or otherwise abused in her lifetime. This violence is happening to our sisters, mothers, grandmothers, aunts and daughters around the world.
This violence leaves survivors with long-term psychological and physical trauma; tears away at the social fabric of communities; and is used with terrifying effect in conflict settings, with women as the main target.

UK just six hours from running out of gas in March
A report from the Crown Estate claims Britain was just six hours from running out of gas
Britain was just six hours away from running out of stored gas in March, according to a report by the Crown Estate.
The claims will fuel fears over the UK's reliance on imported energy after the study claimed high demand during another freezing month combined with a pipeline fault to drive stores of gas "dangerously low".
National Grid, which pipes gas around the UK, insisted the UK has "substantial resilience" and diverse supply sources including imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG).
At the time reports said Britain was two days from running out of stored gas, but the Crown Estate, which manages the Queen's property portfolio including vast underground gas caverns, said it came even closer to supply interruptions.
The supply squeeze will raise concern over Britain's increasing reliance on energy imports as domestic production falls, and add to fears over rising energy bills.
Rob Hastings, energy and infrastructure director at the Crown Estate, was reported by the Financial Times as saying: "We really only had six hours' worth of gas left in storage as a buffer. If it had run any lower it would have meant... interruptions to supply.
"The bottom line is that in the UK we are in a place where the gas supply is dangerously low."
The Crown Estate owns the rights to gas storage caverns under the UK seabed, including Rough off the coast of East Yorkshire, which Energy firms use to build up supplies of natural gas during warmer months.
Centrica recently said that the extended cold weather saw volumes at Rough, which it leases from the Crown Estate, reach a record low level in April.
While Britain's storage capacity has increased in recent years, energy watchdog Ofgem says it still lags behind other major European economies on gas storage because of its historic role as a producer.
The March supply squeeze was caused by problems at a processing plant in Norway that supplies gas to Britain through the Langeled pipeline, plus disrupted supplies between Belgium and the UK. Gas storage levels were already low after an exceptionally cold winter.
However, the FT reported Nick Winser, executive director of National Grid, as saying: "It is true that there wasn't a huge amount of storage left, but there never is at the end of winter.
"The UK has low storage levels by international standards, but there is a large diversity of (supply) sources. Our gas supply resilience is quite substantial."
He added the UK attracts shipments of LNG when stored natural gas supplies are low, ensuring it is not reliant on gas storage.
Energy giant SSE this week warned higher wholesale power prices will push up household bills as it reported a 5.6 per cent rise in underlying annual profits to £1.4bn.
It said: "Unless there is a sustained reduction in prices in wholesale gas and electricity markets, it is highly likely that these additional costs will eventually have to be reflected in higher prices for household customers."
Total energy imports reached a record high of 173.7 million tonnes of oil equivalent in 2012, according to the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC).
The UK's net import dependency rose to 43 per cent, its highest level since 1976, DECC added, but high gas prices pushed gas demand 5.5 per cent lower than a year earlier and gas imports were 6.5 per cent lower.
Gas was used to generate 27.5 per cent of the UK's electricity in 2012, compared with almost 40 per cent from coal.

Republicans "Testing" for Voter Fraud Were Arrested
Two Republicans in two separate states who were allegedly trying to test how easy it would be to commit voter fraud were taken into police custody for attempting to commit voter fraud themselves.
Roxanne Rubin, 56, was arrested on November 2 in Nevada after she allegedly tried to vote twice. Rubin allegedly voted at one polling location in Henderson, Nev. on October 29, and then went to another voting location in Las Vegas to try to vote again. Poll workers in Las Vegas told her that records indicated that she had already voted, but Rubin reportedly told them that she had not. A poll worker also reportedly over heard Rubin tell a man that she had "signed my name differently, and they did not ask for ID." Rubin was arrested at the Riviera Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas and was chraged with a category "D" felony.
Meanwhile, on Tuesday in New Mexico, a Republican poll watcher was arrested after trying to test the system. The man reportedly voted and then obtained a second provisional ballot and announced that he was "testing the system to see if people could get away with voting twice." This man's name is not yet being released because an investigation is on-going. Santa Clara, N.M. police chief Lonnie Sandoval said that:
"From what we understand, he was trained by the Republican Party."

Flomax capsules are indicated for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia such as poor urine flow and frequent visits to the bathroom.
Flomax Dosage and treatment
Flomax capsule 0.4 mg once daily is recommended as the dose for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of BPH. It should be administered once daily following a meal. For those patients who fail to respond to the Flomax 0.4 mg dose after two to four weeks of dosing, the dose of Flomax capsules can be increased to 0.8 mg once daily. If Flomax capsules administration is discontinued or interrupted for several days at either the 0.4 mg or 0.8 mg dose, therapy should be started again with the 0.4 mg once daily dose.
Flomax side
Flomax can cause dizziness, especially when you first stand up. Be careful about driving, operating machinery, and performing any other hazardous task until you know how you react to the drug. Common side effects may include abnormal ejaculation, back pain, chest pain, cough, diarrhea, dizziness, headache, infection, nausea, runny nose, sinus problems, sleepiness, sore throat, weakness. Less common flomax side effects may include:decreased sex drive, dental problems, insomnia, vision problems. Rare Flomax side effects may include: constipation, fainting, low blood pressure upon standing, painful persistent erection, palpitations, vertigo, vomiting.
BMJ. 2013 Nov 5. Severe hypotension associated with α blocker tamsulosin.
How is Flomax
Flomax capsules 0.4 mg are supplied in high density polyethylene bottles containing 100 or 1000 hard gelatin capsules with olive green opaque cap and orange opaque body. The capsules are imprinted on one side with "Flomax 0.4 mg" and on the other side with "BI 58."
Q. Is saw palmetto as effective as Flomax for BPH symptoms?
A. Flomax is much more powerful than saw palmetto. However, it is possible to alternate every other day the use of Flomax with prostate herbs such as saw palmetto or a combination such as Prostate Power Rx. This way the side effects from Flomax would be less and the effectiveness should still be good.
Q. I'd like to
know, what are the real differences between Avodart and Flomax? I'm currently
taking Flomax and I believe that both medicines reduce semen. Is there something
that I can take, while continuing to use either medication, that would be able
to improve this situation without diminishing to effects of either medication?
A. Avodart is a medication that blocks the 5alpha-reductase inhibitor enzymes thus blocking the formation of the hormone DHT. Flomax, tamsulosin hydrochloride, is an antagonist of alpha1A adrenoceptors in the prostate and does not effect testosterone or DHT levels. See sperm for suggestions on how to improve semen and sperm quality and quantity.
I have just
been diagnosed with BPH, had several test and and a cystoscopy because of
several urinary tract infections, was put on antibiotics for the infection and
Flomax 4Mg for the prostate enlargement about 2 weeks later I was put on 8 Mg of
Flomax because I still have some burning weak urine flow. Is there something
natural I can use and get off perscription drugs. You can't talk to your doctor
about natural products, they look at you like you crazy. Please Help and advise
what I can use in place of Flomax. I do have confidence in you and your advise.
I have used your products over the years and found them to exceptional. Your
advise will be very much appreciated. I am a 70 year old male and I am taking
blood pressure medication which is under control with Exforge and a
Perhaps the page on prostate health will help you.
Can I take an
herbal natural prostate health formula with the 8 mg of Flomax which I would
like to discontinue.
This is a decision you are your doctor would need to make. It is possible the the use of a natural prostate pill can lower the required dosage of the medication, but it is not possible to make accurate predictions.

We are heading to the resort the last week in September-- 4 full days. I would have selected HoJo, but it's booked. Second choice would be DLH or Paradise Pier. But both are showing 325 a night-- about 125 to 150 more than I would spend for this splurge. Now, my brain is numb looking for that perfect hotel for our needs. Here's what we're looking for:
- walking distance if possible. we'll be heading back to the hotel daily for naps (4 kids [8 yrs to 20 months], 4 adults and 2 seniors in the group.)
- a place that is a tad more than just for crashing. Feel like at that time of year and for those many days, we can afford some time to rest. If it could be Hampton Inn quality, we'd be thrilled.
- a decent pool if possible.
At this point, we're juggling the following:
- Ramada Maingate- 135
- Best Western Anaheim Inn- 107
- Anaheim Fairfield Inn- 139
- Anabella....maybe- 95
- still haven't ruled out the Hilton properties in Garden Grove...down harbour....but they charge for the shuttle.
Any advice on these or others we should consider? I've done searches here for the above hotels. Just wondering how they stack up based on this criteria. Not going to have a car, so parking doesn't matter.
Also, anybody know if the Disney properties charge the same "resort fees" and taxes as those across the street? I guess I'm holding out hope that the DLR hotels will suddenly look more viable, but not counting on it!

As we move into another season, our cooking styles will change. We'll turn to soups, stews, chilies and oven-baked meats. To add heartier flavor to fall dishes, try this flavor-boosting secret: Roast your spices.
Spices such as cumin, coriander, cinnamon – even ground ginger – can be heated on the stovetop to release essential oils and create deeper, more aromatic flavors.
Spices burn easily, however, and the speed with which they cook varies depending on heat, pan and individual spice. For those looking to skip the time and temperature guesswork, a new group of roasted spices from the McCormick Gourmet Collection delivers the rich, fuller taste and mouthwatering aromas of roasting – without the extra effort.
- Add depth: Explore earthy flavors – and save a step in dishes calling for roasting and grinding cumin seed – by adding roasted ground cumin to Indian, Moroccan and Southwestern meals. Try it in favorite recipes for grilled steak, chili, tacos and salsas.
- Play with sweetness: Roasting cinnamon brings out a delightfully strong and sweet flavor similar to red-hot candies. It is a playful addition to mole recipes, spice rubs and sweet dishes such as yogurt, cookies and fresh fruit salad.
- Turn up the heat: With its sharper notes balanced to create a warmer, rounder flavor, roasted ground ginger is surprisingly versatile and brings a mellow sweet heat to barbecue sauces, marinades and chutneys.

For at least another week in Dubai, delegates from 193 nations are at a landmark conference to talk about regulating the telecommunications industry. Some fear that could lead a few countries, particularly Russia and China, moving to more tightly regulate local use of the Internet too. If the final treaty includes text they can use to justify potential acts of censorship, that could well happen.
How to avoid that? According to the head of the U.S. delegation, conference members shouldn't talk about the Internet at all.
The heart of the current debate is over scope and definition: whether the treaty should apply to "operating agencies" or "recognized operating agencies." The latter refers to established telecom services providers like AT&T and MCI, and the ITU even has a list of them here.
But take out the word "recognized" and it can refer to a whole lot more.
"Any individual, company, corporation or governmental agency which operates a telecommunication installation intended for an international telecommunication service or capable of causing harmful interference with such a service." – Official ITU definition of 'operating agency.'
That could apply to the large and small internet companies – everyone from Google and Facebook to your local online startup, to "amateur radio operators," according to dot-nxt.com.
Yet several countries at the conference are pushing for the new treaty to go this broadly, including Brazil, India, Iran and several countries in Africa and the Middle East. Those who don't want it to include online activity: the U.S., Canada and Japan.
"The focus should be on the telecom sector, not the internet sector," said Ambassador Terry Kramer, head of the conference's U.S. delegation. He hopes to narrow the scope of the conference to just telcos, so that the Internet doesn't even become part of the debate on regulation, leading to a treaty that allows fuzzy justification of online content censorship by certain countries.
The World Conference on International Telecommunications, has been convened by the International Telecommunications Agency, an agency of the United Nations — in fact one of the oldest members — whose role includes allocating satellite orbits and radio spectrums.
As part of the event, international diplomatic representatives have come together to help update the agency's International Telecommunications Regulations. This is a treaty that was last agreed at the World Administrative Telegraph and Telephone Conference in Melbourne in 1988. Things have moved along quite a it since then, like the Internet going mainstream, yet there have been no updates to the treaty's provisions since then. (Click here for more on the treaty.)
The issue of operating agencies is "to be determined," Kramer said on a conference call with journalists on Thursday. "We've been sending quite a bit of time working with countries on bilateral discussion to focus on recognized operating agencies."
The United States is very much against any attempt by delegates of the ITU creating proposals for regulating the internet at the conference. On Wednesday, the U.S. House of Representatives voted unanimously for a resolution to "keep the Internet free from government control," and Google has launched its own anti-regulation campaign.
"What we are saying is the Internet by itself, which gets into content and applications, is an area that should not be the focus. The core network that proves all the services, broadband, is absolutely the right vision for the conference… Anything that gets into the content or internet… should be part of this treaty. Seemingly harmless proposals can open the door to censorship."
One upside, he added, was that delegates had agreed to a definition of "telecommunications," and had not confused the term with information communications technology or ICT. However, the UN agency's definition of ICT itself is still being worked on, he added. "People are talking about VoIP operations and Skype providing 'telecommunications services,' but we don't feel those are appropriate."
Kramer's strategy is to avoid being drawn into discussions about the Internet at all, and he is pushing to bring the debate back to the jurisdiction of the treaty, and recognized operating agencies. "It's a situation we won't negotiate on because of scope creep," he said.
Kramer added that there was a "pretty big gap in points of view of a variety of nations" when it came to including Internet activity in the treaty. "It's not easy issue to work through because it's a philosophical one."

Color Ignited: TMA commemorates half century of studio glassWritten by Sarah Ottney | Editor in Chief | firstname.lastname@example.com
Toledo is now known as the birthplace of the studio glass movement, but participants at a glass workshop 50 years ago had trouble even forming a bubble.
"Nobody knew anything. Literally no one knew how to make a bubble. There was no one there to ask," recalled 89-year-old Toledo artist Edith Franklin, one of the fewer than 10 people who attended the first of two 1962 glass workshops at Toledo Museum of Art."The turning point for me, for all of us, was close to the last day of the class, this old man came dressed in a suit and tie and someone started to talk to him. He had worked as a glassblower for Libbey. They said, 'Would you like to try?' He took off his coat and his vest, sat down, put his thumb over the hole at the top and there came the bubble. Magic! Here we had been huffing and puffing for a week and then there it was. Simple. With the touch of a thumb."
The man was Harvey Leafgreen, a glassblower who had worked for the Libbey Glass division at Owens-Illinois for years. Afterward, he worked one-on-one with the workshop participants.
'Color Ignited'
"Color Ignited: Glass 1962–2012," a new exhibition at the Toledo Museum of Art (TMA), will commemorate the 50th anniversary of the historic workshops led by Harvey Littleton. The free show, which focuses on the evolution of the use of color in glass, will debut June 14 during the Glass Art Society Conference and run through Sept. 9.
On display will be more than 80 objects from private collections, galleries and other museums as well as TMA's collection, including work by Littleton, Dominick Labino, Marvin Lipofsky, Dale Chihuly, Dan Dailey, Laura de Santillana, Heinz Mack, Klaus Moje, Yoichi Ohira, Ginny Ruffner and Judith Schaechter.
The exhibit will be the first in the new $3 million Frederic and Mary Wolfe Gallery of Contemporary Art. The space was home to TMA's glass collection before the Glass Pavilion opened in 2006.
Jutta-Annette Page, TMA's curator of glass and decorative arts and vice president of the Glass Art Society, called the exhibition "visually enthralling" and said she hopes visitors leave with a better appreciation of Toledo's role in the evolution of studio glass.
"I very much hope this exhibition will make it clear this very important movement started here in Toledo and also help people realize this is an international movement that is here to stay," Page said.
Visitors can also view the exhibit from the gallery's mezzanine level.
"It allows people to look at the works on the ground floor from a different vantage point, which some of the artists are intending on in their works," Page said.
Several of Franklin's pieces from the original studio glass workshop will be on display.
"I had them at home for years and nobody looked at them and now they've become famous," Franklin said.
Such early pieces are rare, Page said.
"It's a very, very small group of surviving objects and the reason for that is they had not really figured out the technological issues that came with this experimentation," Page said. "Most of the pieces broke."
The first workshop used glass from melted-down fiberglass marbles made at the Johns Manville plant in Waterville. Learning to add color was part of the experimentation process.
"If you look at these very earliest pieces they were all greenish, transparent glass because the color was entirely determined by the glass batch," Page said. "Very early on the palette was limited to the prefabricated glass the artists were using, but they very quickly experimented with color."
Right place, right time
Franklin, a lifelong Toledo resident, was taking a ceramics class at TMA when she heard about the 1962 glass workshop. She was told it was open to university ceramics professors only, but a week before the workshop, she was invited to attend.
"They couldn't fill the class. There were not enough people signed up from across the country to fill the class," Franklin said. "I'm a firm believer in luck. Right place, right time and you're lucky you were the one that happened to be there."
Franklin never worked with glass again, but has fond memories of that first workshop.
"It wasn't for me. I did it because I was curious, but I'm too little to lift that heavy pipe with the gather on the end. My God, I couldn't lift the damn thing. But it was a wonderful experience," Franklin said. "It's been exciting these past couple of years. It's nice it's getting the recognition it should. Too bad some of the people aren't alive who would have been enjoying this."
Admission to the museum, located at 2445 Monroe St., is free. Hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and noon to 6 p.m. Sunday. The museum is closed Mondays and major holidays.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- A major Dell shareholder is urging the slumping personal computer maker's board to scrap a $24.4 billion deal to sell the company to a group including CEO Michael Dell and pursue two competing bids instead.
The request made in in a Tuesday letter from Southeastern Asset Management isn't a surprise. The Memphis, Tenn., investment firm stated its opposition to Dell Inc.'s plan to sell itself to Michael Dell and Silver Lake Partners shortly after the terms were announced two months ago.This is the first time that Southeastern has communicated with Dell's board since buyout specialist Blackstone Group and billionaire investor Carl Icahn submitted alternative proposals in late March.Southeastern says both of those bids are better than the current deal. The firm owns an 8.4 percent stake in Dell.

Ever wonder what dogs would say if they could talk? They would probably ask you to stop dressing them up in silly outfits or to quit throwing things across the yard and making them bring it back. Unfortunately our minds aren't sophisticated enough to interpret the meaning of "woof-woof" and "bow-wow." Maybe one day we'll finally understand what dogs are really saying, but until then we can only assume what's going through those furry little heads of theirs. And that's exactly what we did with these funny dog cards. Whether you're celebrating a birthday or you just want to send someone a thank you card, make friends and loved ones laugh with a playful card from a pooch's perspective.

Product description
Terrorism laws and legal practices have been politically and socially controversial to a degree beyond almost any other legal issue during the past decade, and this analytical text contains extensive analysis of these controversies. Written by a leading commentator, Terrorism and the Law offers a thoughtful and up-to-date discussion of all the key materials on terrorism law. It provides comprehensive coverage of all major domestic, European, and international laws, and their impact on the UK. It also contains an extensive examination of implementation and practical problems, as well as comparison with closely comparable jurisdictions ranging from Australia, Canada, and the Republic of Ireland, to the United States. The book contains five Parts. Part I focuses on meanings of 'terrorism' in law and political science. It provides the reader with an understanding of the political phenomenon and the legal concept, including its statutory definitions, which is essential to the book's assessment of the strategies and tactics adopted in the codes of laws as well as policy statements. It also addresses normative constraints, such as human rights, and considers mechanisms of accountability. Parts II-IV focus on the United Kingdom law and practice. It provides extensive coverage of the major UK terrorism legislation, namely: the Terrorism Act 2000; the Anti-Terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001; the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005; the Terrorism Act 2006; the Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Act 2007; the Counter-Terrorism Act 2008; and the Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Act 2010. The themes comprise: investigatory and policing powers and interventions; the disclosure of Information, special criminal laws, special criminal processes, post-trial restraints and the penology of terrorism, executive regulation through control orders and immigration measures, terrorist funding and property, and protective security laws, structures, and regulations. The study encompasses wherever relevant the impact of European, international and transnational laws and practices, covering international transnational cooperation and extradition; key European Union law measures against terrorism; other international law measures against terrorist activities; and international human rights and terrorism. Part V considers regional variations in Northern Ireland, with some reflections on the application of Scottish law, especially in the Lockerbie cases.

Review quote
Clive Walker presents a systematic review of counterterrorism within the United Kingdom until 2010. Unlike other books on counterterrorist law, Walker's book goes beyond the principal anti-terrorism legislation by considering other relevant aspects of domestic legislation, and by making some comparison with international laws. The author also refers to accounts of practical implementation of the law through consideration of interviews and visits undertaken during fieldwork. These three elements combine to provide a comprehensive, yet clear, account of counterterrorism law within the UK until 2010, that should be of interest to academics, lawyers and policy makers. The clear writing style, easy-to-follow structure and encyclopaedic knowledge means that this book, should be considered an invaluable reference work for anyone interested in terrorism, counterterrorism and the law, within the United Kingdom. John Lamb, The Howard Journal This volume deserves wide reading; it makes an important contribution to existing literature on the subject of terrorism and the law. It is well written, thoroughly researched, clearly presented and filled with readily accessible invaluable information. Readers - whether subject matter experts, students or the interested public - owe Prof Walker a debt of gratitude. Congratulations are also due to Oxford University Press; the books format is remarkably user friendly. Amos N. Guiora, Perspectives on Terrorism Professor Walker's description of and commentary upon the law, well-structured for use by practitioners, is set against a succinct but profound analysis of the broader picture, informed by his intimate knowledge of academic and comparative materials. This book is an essential tool for all those concerned with the law and policy of counter-terrorism. David Anderson QC, Government Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation The book is an extremely impressive and comprehensive work which will appeal to many working exclusively in the field, as well as to those, like myself, who have particular concerns arising from specific issues or cases. Alex Bailin QC, Public Law 2012, Publication Review iTerrorism and the Lawr is a welcome addition to the literature in this complex and controversial area of law and is made all the more readable by the author's forthright manner; there is no other academic in the UK today that can rival Walker's encyclopedic knowledge of this most important of subjects. James Roebuck, Legal Studies This important volume contains extensive, up-to-date analysis of key materials on anti-terrorism law and legal practice. Joshua Sinai, Perspectives on Terrorism

WoW.com's prestige in the community has afforded us the opportunity to speak to major Azerothian leadership figures on any subject, and we're letting you, the reader, Ask A Faction Leader!
We recently spoke to Cairne Bloodhoof, High Chieftain of the tauren, and he shed light on several key issues, including cruelty to hawkstriders, data-mining farseers, two-handed totem trainers, and Earthmother itches. In this installment of Ask A Faction Leader, we'll be sitting with Highlord Tirion Fordring of the Argent Crusade.
Our first reader question:
Tirion replies:
Ah! A perceptive son of the Hand, I see. Your training has paid off! The answer is actually quite simple.
I realized that my armor was a bit outdated for my role as new leader of the amalgamated Silver Hand and Argent Dawn; however, I could not make the trip to Outland due to my busy schedule. Instead, I enlisted the help of two of my most favored paladins. Each of them made the trek to the Black Temple, defeated Illidan and his lieutenants, and were each successful in salvaging a full, radiant set of Lightbringer armor. Their duties fulfilled, they returned to me, adorned in their hard-earned regalia.
Then I made them fight to death and took the loser's armor. By the Light!
Tirion replies:
Your interest in the Ashbringer is understandable -- it is undoubtedly one of the finest blades ever forged, and the most powerful weapon against the Lich King and his minions. The issue with the Ashbringer is that it's just really bad luck to have around. You wouldn't think so, being a blade of pure Light and all that, but seriously! It's bad news warbears for anybody but me.
Highlord Mograine? He got shanked by his own boy with it. Darion Mograine? Had to impale himself with it to redeem his father. Even the kid I lent it to for like five minutes got killed. Do you really want to be an entry-level raid boss or a dying questgiver in a starting zone? If you really want to die, the best way to do it is in glorious battle fighting an unrestrained monster for no reason in my Coliseum. Think about it.
Tirion replies:
Ah, this is rather embarrassing. See, I was trying to organize my chat channels, and I accidentally... I mean, that is to say... Gah. All right! You got me! I accidentally disabled Say and General and Whisper. Do you know, like, a macro or something? I don't even know if my DKP tells are getting through and we have that Icecrown thing coming up so DKP is gonna reset. I gotta take everything I can get.
Your question is "Where are we getting dead horses?" Have you even been in the five-man?
Tirion replies:
Well, we've had tauren in the Argent Dawn and Crusade for a while. They're great warriors, admittedly, and their desire to take up the trade isn't surprising. The reason we're accepting them as Light-wielding brothers-in-arms, though, is because as a class, we're severely lacking in races with huge shoulders. All we've really got is draenei! We're in danger of falling even further behind warriors in terms of average epaulet size. This was really the only way. Now, if we could get orcs to bother with anything Light-related, we'd be ahead of the game, but they can barely focus on light fixtures, much less the real thing. I guess there's not enough red paint or spikes on our tier sets for them. And no, we don't want your elves, thank you very much.
Dear Tirion,
Well, sure, we'd help, but a cataclysm? I'm not sure any threat to Azeroth is greater than the Lich King, and I especially can't think of one that could cause destruction that great. Are we talking, like, earthquakes, cave-ins, that kind of thing? Because I'm really good at predicting cave-ins, and I got nothin'.
Dear Tirion Fordring:
Tirion replies:
Looks like somebody's lost sight of the big picture! Sometimes you gotta crack a few omelets, lady! I know it might be hard to understand, but there's definitely a formula for success here. Look:
1. Set up Crusader's Coliseum
3. Be killed
4. ?????
5. Arthas dies
Besides, we'll never run out of Crusaders no matter how many of them can't learn to use their strafe keys on Icehowl. People will always want mounts and non-combat pets. I could offer a repeatable quest to slap a handful of kittens and people would do it if I gave them a little pet for it. And they'd drop the kittens off a cliff for a mount.
Undead mage
Tirion replies:
Look, Sandeface, I don't mean to be, you know, that guy, but the waiver you signed clearly states that we aren't responsible for adverse reactions to Holy magic. Or immolation by snobolds. Or waxy dark energy buildup. Or swarm scarab bites. Or death. Really try to keep that last one in mind.
That's all for our audience with Tirion Fordring! Next week, we'll be speaking with Highlord Darion Mograine of the Ebon Blade! If you have questions for Darion, whether you need advice or have questions about ghouls or diseases or anything in between, send them via email to firstname.lastname@example.com with the subject line "AAFL".

BETHLEHEM, Pa. – The designated away team came away victorious in both games of the Patriot League Tournament opening day as the No. 3 seeded Holy Cross baseball team split with the No. 2 seed Lehigh by scores of 2-1 and 4-1 at Goodman Campus. With the day's decisions, Holy Cross tallies a 24-24 overall record while Lehigh marks a record of 23-26 overall. The Crusaders and Mountain Hawks will now compete in the rubber match of the series tomorrow, May 16 at Goodman Campus beginning at 12:00 p.m. with a berth to the Patriot League Championship round on the line. Sophomore starter Nate Koneski (North Dighton, Mass.) pitched a gem in game one, allowing one run to score in a nine-inning, complete game outing
Game One.
After a scoreless first and second innings, Holy Cross went up 1-0 in the top of third as junior Jack Laurendeau (Sudbury, Mass.) drew a two out walk, advanced to third base on a single by senior John Sills (Milton, Mass.) and then scored on a fielding error by Lehigh's first baseman. Koneski continued his hard efforts from the mound, as the Mountain Hawks scattered three hits over the first four innings of work.
Lehigh collected two extra base hits in the bottom of the fifth inning, including a run-scoring double to knot the score at 1-1. Freshman Stephen Wadsworth (Wayland, Mass.) scored on a sacrifice fly by junior Nick Ciardiello (Edison. N.J.) in the top of the sixth inning, collecting his 57th RBI of the season and giving the Crusaders a 2-1 lead. Koneski would pitch his way out of a jam in the bottom of the sixth inning and then retire six straight batters to protect his team's one run lead heading into the ninth inning. After Holy Cross went three-up, three-down in the top of the inning, Koneski picked up two quick outs with a strikeout and groundout to the shortstop before Lehigh's number nine batter hit a hard hit ball to right field and was then thrown out at second on a throw from Laurendeau, preserving the Crusaders' final 2-1 victory in game one.
Koneski pitched his first nine-inning complete game of the season, notching his fifth complete game overall. He also earned his sixth win, improving to 6-2 on the season after allowing one run on seven hits and striking out three. Lehigh's Andrew Berger would pitch the complete nine innings as well, but tallied the loss to fall to 5-2 on the season. He allowed two runs, one earned, on six hits and five strikeouts.
Game Two
Lehigh scored first as the designated away team in the second game, collecting an RBI single to go up 1-0 in the top of the first inning. Junior Brendan McCrea (Hicksville, N.Y.) tied the score at 1-1 in the top of the second inning, hitting a double off the left center wall, his 10th of the season, and scoring Ciardiello. The Mountain Hawks answered with one run to regain a 2-1 lead, scoring on a wild pitch in the bottom of the second.
Lehigh picked up one run on four hits in the top of the sixth inning, chasing senior starter Matt Shapiro (Raynham, Mass.) from the game. With the bases loaded, senior Bobby Holmes (Dedham, Mass.) retired two of the three batters he faced to keep the Mountain Hawks from scoring again, marking the score at 3-1. The Crusaders would load the bases on three consecutive singles by Wadsworth, junior Eric Oxford (Danvers, Mass.) and sophomore Steve Tkowski (Bourne, Mass.) in the bottom of the sixth inning, but could not put a runner across home plate.
A sacrifice fly increased Lehigh's lead to 4-1 in the top of the eighth inning. Holy Cross remained scoreless from the second inning on, as they dropped the second game by the 4-1 final.
Shapiro takes home the loss, falling to 4-3 on the season after pitching 5.1 innings, giving up three runs on six hits. Lehigh's Ken Longernecker earned the winning decision, improving to 7-2 on the season. He pitched seven strong innings, giving up just one run on seven hits. Reliever Cory Kent picked up the save after shutting Holy Cross down for two innings, collecting his ninth save of the season.
On the day, Holy Cross scored three runs on 13 hits while leaving 15 base runners stranded. The Mountain Hawks scored five runs on 15 hits, leaving 16 runners on base. Wadsworth led the Holy Cross on the day, going 3-for-5 at the plate with two walks.
The Crusaders will next play at 12:00 p.m. on Sunday, May 16 in the final game of the best-of-three series with Lehigh. The contest will be played at Lehigh Baseball Field on Goodman Campus in Bethlehem, Pa.

iTunes art won't save/stick? Album name "unknown"? Maybe it's
...a "compilation" setting problem.
As I always do, I imported a CD, selected all the tracks, Got Info, found an image of the art on the web, copied, pasted into the small art window in iTunes (and the art was visible in the little art win, closed the window dow)...
...and no art in the left column.
Did it again, from a different source picture. Nothing. And then copied from the browser into Word, PAste special to be sure I was getting an image. Copied that. Still nothing. If I open the Get Info pane of each song, the art is there. If I select all, it is blank.
Just did the same for a different album-no problem at all.
Hey...why is album name "unknown"? They all have the same name!
Uh-"compilations" is YES. Change to NO.
Problem solved.
--> I guess iTunes freaks out if you have a compilation where the artists are all the same?
This album was "Wicked: Original Broadway Cast" and I had changed all the artist names to just "Wicked" instead of Kristin Chenoweth etc. Apparently that freaked things out...though now I can change compilations YES or NO and it's fine.
Ah, software. Can't live without it, can't commit mass murder to the careless lazy developers...
Hope this helps someone.

Spill Response Resource Links
The April 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill is the largest spill on record to date. This catastrophe skyrocketed the topic of spill response to the forefront of the public eye. Nationwide media coverage has drawn attention to this issue. However, there have always been spills of varying sizes, ranging from a small workplace spill to a larger spill on a highway or railroad. It is important to be aware of the requirements for response, coordination and cleanup.
Laws enforced by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) are essential to help secure the safety of our most valuable environmental resources as well as ensuring the safety of those whose job it is to respond and clean up in the event of a spill. It is important to know where information can be found when a spill of any size happens—even the smallest spill can have significant impact.
Below are some resource links to help with spill response.

The XTAR MP1S charger is designed to charge the 14650/17640/18650/18700, and also the 10440/14500/15270/16340/18350 3.7 volt Li-ion batteries when using included charging spacers. It is designed with algorithm (TC.CC.CV)
charging method which can monitor the battery's status in real time and controls
charging safely automatically. It also has reverse-polarity protection , and over/under
voltage disconnecting technology.
When the input voltage (AC adapter or car adapter) is removed the charger will be in a low current status automatically, and will lower the battery's discharging current to below 4uA.
When charging is complete the charger will monitor the battery continuously - it will restart charging is the battery voltage drops below 4.0 volts to insure the battery is fully charged.
Also, the charging management chip can monitor the IC temp; so if the temperature is too high the charging current will lower automatically to insure continual charging.
Notice: The above-mentioned parameters tested in Lab are approximate and may
vary between flashlight/charger, batteries and environments.

There's a legal way to avoid paying any federal tax on income from stock dividends and capital gains. The catch is, you can't have a great deal of income.
It's one of those federal tax provisions that may seem more symbolic than practical, because people with moderate to low incomes are less likely to own stocks, receive dividends or declare capital gains from the sale of real estate or securities. Most people who do have stocks and mutual funds in taxable (nonretirement) accounts pay a 15 percent federal tax on dividends and capital gains - a bargain compared to the income and payroll taxes on wage income.
However, more than one out of 11 federal tax returns recently included tax-free dividends and capital gains, and that represents a lot of people. About a third of them were single, while most were married couples filing joint returns.
The important thing about the federal tax rules is to realize what they mean in terms of saving money and deciding when to sell stocks or mutual funds.
In a broad sense, the tax code rewards people who make long-term investments in stocks, while penalizing savers. Interest earned on savings and money market accounts is taxable, while for many people, income from stock dividends is tax-free.
Short-term capital gains, such as from selling a stock held for less than a year at a profit, are taxed at regular income tax rates, while long-term gains can be tax-free.
A key point to keep in mind is that qualified dividends and capital gains are only tax-free if your total taxable income falls within the 10 percent or 15 percent tax brackets - and that income includes the dividends and capital gains.
For this year (for the tax return you'll file in 2015), the top of the 15 percent tax bracket is $73,800 for a married couple filing together, and $36,900 for a single person with no dependent children.
So, if a married couple had taxable income of $70,000, and up to $3,800 in long-term capital gains, they would pay no federal tax on the gains.
A few examples of how this can play a role in tax planning:
For people who have income that varies year to year, the zero-percent rate on qualified dividends and long-term capital gains might apply some years, but not others. Declaring capital gains (the difference between the purchase and sale prices) in a year when a person's income was lower than usual could mean keeping all the gains, rather than just 85 cents on the dollar.
For people who have moderate incomes and potentially large capital gains - say, from company stock options - spreading those gains out across several years could yield tax savings.
For people who bought some stock or mutual funds when their incomes were rising, they might want to consider capturing tax-free gains by selling before their incomes rise high enough that those gains would be taxable. Of course, they could always buy the same stock or mutual fund again.
Tax-free dividends are worth more than taxable interest earnings, so a stock paying a dividend of 2.55 percent is like a certificate of deposit paying 3 percent. Of course, companies can raise or lower dividends, and the underlying stock can rise or fall in value.
The advantageous tax treatment of dividends and gains that is available to the majority of taxpayers is not reason by itself to invest in stocks, but knowing the rules is how we all can make smarter decisions about our finances.

Passionate is the word that springs to mind when thinking of Brisbane-based designer Alexander Lotersztain. His passion for the environment, for the role of design in life, for unique products, for educating kids on the power of design, for making design accessible to everyone. This passion drives his design and is palpable in the products he turns out, the ever-popular events with his creative talent behind them and the design partnerships he seeks out.
A popular and deserving winner of the inaugural Smart State Design Fellowship as part of the Queensland Premier's Design Awards, Alexander is not one to rest on his laurels. Since being awarded the fellowship, Alexander has taken on an international design commission with corporate giant Nestle, been recognized by Wallpaper magazine in its pick of Australian design, and has been commissioned to design a signature residential project. The fellowship funded travel to the United States last year for Alexander to research business possibilities in that market and allowed participation a number of design fairs. Alexander also used the fellowship funding to undertake a number of lectures on design throughout Queensland.
Perhaps one of the most rewarding milestones for the designer thus far however is yet to come in March this year. In recognition of his design work, Alexander has been invited by the Gallery of Australian Design to hold a solo exhibition. The ten-year retrospective will feature a range of Alexander's work from his early pieces to limited editions of his current products. The first Queensland designer to hold a solo exhibition at the Canberra gallery, Alexander seems both humbled and energized by the upcoming show.
The busy designer recently took a few moments to reflect on Queensland design and his Fellowship:
What does the title Smart State Design Fellow mean to you?
It feels like recognition that I have managed to contribute to the design and cultural fabric of the state, something I am proud of and look forward to continuing to do.
Can you provide a glimpse into your work as a designer since winning this award?
It has been a year of great involvement with the Queensland Government in the area of design. Through my role on the Smart State Design Council I have been able to participate in some exciting planning and ideas for the future of design in Queensland. A real highlight for me has been taking part in school visits both here and interstate and talking to kids as well as teachers about the power of creativity and design thinking.
In terms of studio work it has been business as usual, with very steady growth as we see Australia going through a bit of a design revolution. It's very encouraging and not surprising to see Queensland leading the way in Australian design.
Has winning this award impacted on your practice as a designer?
It has encouraged me to keep doing what I am doing, to stay passionate and to have fun with my work.
What do you think the current state of design in Queensland is?
The state of design in Queensland is for me a Smart State, a state that incorporates design thinking and action comprehensively throughout all areas: managerially, culturally, economically and socially.
I believe design is the single most important tool that we have today for positive action, and I am glad to see that the Queensland Government is taking design seriously.
What are the positives of being a designer based in Queensland?
The energy, the fairness and the positive attitude!
Your greatest influence/inspiration?
Your next project?
A few new ranges of products for derlot editions manufactured in Queensland, a collaborative project in partnership with Nestle Headquarters in Switzerland and Husque based here in Brisbane, and the art direction for a signature multi-residential project in New South Wales.
