In this particular case, a level 70 Warrior (posting on his level 42 Mage alt) claims that he forgot to loot the Vial of Eternity from his guild's recent Kael'thas kill. He filed a GM ticket, and they refused to grant it to him, stating he should just go kill Kael again for it. Embers, the alt, goes to the forums to ask for this vial instead. EU Game Master and Customer Service Rep Xaldavan joins the show pretty quickly, asking for some necessary information to help him (her?) investigate the situation, even offering to give him the quest item if his claims are accurate.
As you can guess, they weren't accurate at all. In fact, the Warrior left the raid an entire hour before Kael'thas was actually killed. In the middle of a trash pull, too! You would think people would know by now that trying to scam a GM is silly. As Xaldavan said, they can see everything. Some of these people are very, very lucky that Blizzard's GMs tend to be merciful about these sorts of things.

Die Hard eco star Jeremy Irons backs Glosain's campaign against Javelin Park incinerator plans
Posted: February 13, 2013|
ECO alternatives should be investigated instead of sending black bin bag rubbish to the controversial county incinerator, says Green councillor Martin Whiteside.
He says Stroud District Council should look at further recycling options and never send local waste to the planned mass burner at Javelin Park in Haresfield.
His suggestion came as Hollywood actor Jeremy Irons backed anti-incinerator activists in their campaign against the Gloucestershire County Council proposals.
Coun Whiteside (Thrupp), supported by Coun Paul Denney (Lab, Cam West) will submit a motion at next Thursday's full Stroud District Council meeting.
It will say that refuse left in bin bags, after the current recyclables are separated and collected, could be treated through one or more contracts with recycling providers.
"This is about researching the options," said Coun Whiteside.
"Much more could be recycled. One of the problems with the incinerator is it doesn't encourage that. We would like to look at the possibilities, anaerobic digestion for biological material, pyrolysis, we think we could do a better job."
The district council has already objected on planning grounds to the county council's energy from waste idea for Javelin Park.
Opponents from Gloucestershire Vale Against Incineration have enlisted Die Hard star Irons to their cause. The actor appears in the environmental documentary film Trashed.
Glosain, in a newly-released independent report it commissioned, alleges the county is breaching EU law with its plan.
But the county's incinerator project champion Coun Stan Waddington (Con, Minchinhampton) said the report was "fundamentally flawed".

Nabnut's house
From RWP Wiki
Nabnut's house is a location in Banjo-Kazooie. It is where Nabnut the squirrel lives.
The house can be found near the summit of the tree in all seasons of Click Clock Wood.
There is one main room, and two offset rooms.
Main Room
This contains a bed, a table, shelves, a wardrobe and an acorn-shaped lamp. During various seasons, the owner of the house, Nabnut, can be found here. In Spring, he will be eating a large pile of acorns. In Summer, he can be found on the floor; the Acorns are gone, and he has gained weight. In Autumn, he stands outside and complains about having eaten all his acorns, as he will have none left for the coming winter. He asks Banjo and Kazooie to collect more acorns for them; doing so will earn them a Jiggy. Afterwards, Nabnut will be celebrating inside his house in front of a sizable pile of acorns. Finally, in Winter, he can be found asleep in bed with Mrs. Nabnut next to him.
Offset Room (right)
There is a pool of water here, and a collectible Acorn at the bottom.
Offset Room (above)
There is a large pile of Acorns here, as well as a Grublin Hood and an Empty Honeycomb Piece.
Stop 'n' Swop
The Yellow Secret Egg appears in Nabnut's house during the winter. In the Nintendo 64 version of Banjo-Kazooie, it will only appear once the cheat "CHEAT NOW BANJO WILL BE ABLE TO SEE IT ON NABNUTS TABLE" is entered in Treasure Trove Cove's sandcastle. In the Xbox Live Arcade version, the Yellow Secret Egg will appear once a Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts save file is located on the hard drive.
- A remix of the music played in Nabnut's house appears on the Banjo-Kazooie Game Soundtrack as an unlisted "bonus" track.
- Another remix of the music played in Nabnut's house appears in Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, during the Banjoland "variation" challenge music.

Kept my hands warm on several near sub zero rabbit hunts, northern Michigan. The Larges is a bit tight on my fingers, didn't affect warmth.
Magnetic closure & thumb hold were handy.
Good for a hunt where I was moving.

I have owned a lot of gloves for hunting and fishing and this is one of the best gloves I've ever owned, ESPECIALLY for this price range. Comfortable, form fitted, and warm. My only gripe is the magnets need to be stronger as they don't hold the flaps real well, but they do the job for the most part. Also, the stitching on one of my 4-finger flaps already came halfway off after one duck hunting trip, but that honestly still wouldn't deter me from buying another pair of these gloves right now.

no the gay adgenda is a plan made to divide us even further than we all ready are. It has nothing to do with human rights or depopulation. If they want to depopulate us they have so many other ways to do it
Ill start a list everybody add to it
reply to post by whiteblack
Your a Christian and think homosexuality is ok?
What you mean is you are religious just like the ones Jesus condemned in his day as being whitewashed walls. There is no compromise. It doesn't mean you hate them, but in the same way you accept a thief but not his constant refusal to stop stealing, you do not accept homosexuality as normal because next step is legalizing sex with animals. Don't laugh, we did about homosexuality in 1970 !
I support gay marriage. I believe they have a right to be as miserable as the rest of us.
Here is my two cents. Take it for what it's worth.
I do not believe the government should be involved at all with marriages. Marriage is a rite, a religious ceremony. The fact the the government "licenses" it or controls it in any way is absurd.
Now, the government may want to establish certain benefits for couples and households. That's fine. Regulate away. License domestic partnerships, household contracts, whatever. Just don't call it marriage—that's not for government to define.

Sao Paulo stopper Rhodolfo is edging nearer to a Juventus switch, reports in Italy are suggesting.
The Old Lady are looking for a new centre-back and the Brazilian has emerged as a possible target.
Juventus director general Beppe Marotta is understood to have held further talks with Sao Paulo officials during the night.
The Turin giants are apparently willing to offer €8m for the defender who turned 25-years-old earlier this month.
Rhodolfo, whose full name is Luiz Rhodolfo Dini Gaioto, joined his present club from Atletico Paranaense earlier this year.
Juventus are also in discussions with Zenit about Portuguese defender Bruno Alves. He could also move to Turin in a swap deal with Leonardo Bonucci.

Samite, a Ugandan singer, songwriter, flautist, and master of the kalimba (thumb piano) performed a special concert on the campus of Missouri Southern State College at 7:30 p.m. Monday, March 9, 1998, in Webster Auditorium. The program was sponsored by the College's Institute of International Studies. The concert was a prelude to the Harry and Berniece Gockel International Symposium in April.
A Samite performance is an engaging musical dialogue between performers and audience. Samite coaxes his audience to sing along in Luganda, his native language, while explainingthe mechanics of his traditional instruments. Whether performing solo or with his small group, Samite extends a warm and confident presence to old and young alike, as even the most reserved audiences find themselves up, dancing to Samite's rhythms by concert's end.
Pete Seeger has called Samite "A superb musician!" Joseph Shabalala, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, says, "When you hear the music of Samite, the soul of Africa is revealed." Jon Pareles in the New York Times said Samite is a musician of almost transcendent quiet strength. . . ."the serenity seems almost miraculous."
Samite (pronounced SAH mee tay) was born and raised in Uganda, where his grandfather taught him to play the traditional flute. His primary schooling was within the King's Courtyard, where the royal musicians played for the king. That daily influence permanently instilled within the young boy the rhythms and patterns of the traditional music of his people, the Baganda. Recognizing his talents, a teacher at his high school in Kampala put a western flute in his hands and helped him to become one of the most highly acclaimed flutists in East Africa.
In 1982 he fled to Kenya as a political refugee, where he played with the Bacchus Club Jazz Band and the renowned African Heritage Band. Increasingly drawn to instruments and rhythms from the traditional Ugandan music scene, he began playing his own music at the Mount Kenya Safari Club in Nairobi. Delivering his mellifluous vocals in his mother tongue, Luganda, he mesmerized audiences with original compositions played on the kalimba, the marimba (wooden xylophone), litungu (seven-stringed Kenyan instrument), and various flutes (traditional and western).
Emigrating to the United States in 1987, Samite made his home in Ithaca, New York, where he recorded his first tour de force Shanachie release, "Abaana Bakesa" (Dance, My Children, Dance). A second release, "Pearl of Africa Reborn," was recorded at the Hit Factory in New York City. Both contain new compositions which retain the essence of African tradition. Songs are sung in two Ugandan languages and relate images conjured while dreaming, and folk tales and stories passed on to him by his grandfather.
Samite's third U.S. album, "Silina Musango," released by Xenophile, is a joyful collection of melodic transcultural songs featuring kalimba, flute, percussion, and other African and western instruments. Kalimba melodies are the heartbeat of Samite's music, with other instruments and his own tranquil voice giving texture and shape to the songs. "Silina Musango" reached No. 2 on the CMJ New World Music Charts in the summer of 1996.
For the past ten years, Samite has made his living as Uganda's unofficial musical ambassador to the U.S. One of his goals is to open people's minds and hearts to the common threads of human concerns, conveying optimism through stories and song.
"I am convinced that we are all moved by the same desires, needs, and emotions, regardless of the language in which those feelings are expressed," says Samite.
Samite has appeared in recent months in an amazing concert with the Cornell University choruses; as headliner at UNICEF's Day of the African Child in New York City; the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival; the Houston International Festival, and performed at the University of Iowa prior to his Joplin appearance.
For detailed information on Samite, his music, his instruments, and his history visit his web site here. See below for pictures and an article of the performance on MSSU campus.
By Aaron Deslatte
Associate Editor, The Chart
In the beginning of a dream, there is nothing. Darkness and unfamiliarity engulf the cognitive realm. Then the conscious and unconscious greet each other as one clocks out, the other in. Their conversation stokes the fire of recollection and the dreamscape begins to form.
To communicate the message of a dream, a common language must be established. A bridge between the unconscious and conscious must be built.
Samite, the "Ugandan dream weaver," chose long ago that music would be the embodiment of his unconscious thoughts and the vessel in which to share his dreams.
Much like a dream's origin, Monday's performance (March 9, 1998) began in darkness. The crowd of Missouri Southern State College students, staff, faculty, and others assembled in Webster Hall auditorium awaited the onset in curiosity and uncertainty, many of whom were unfamiliar with Samite's music or origin.
But, much as it must have sounded years ago in the Ugandan King's Courtyard, the concert's opening melodies come shrouded in the guise of nature's own song - the call of a bird, the rustle of the bushes.
Then, Samite's song emerged. The kalimba carried the melody. Congas leaped into percussive support. The flute lent harmony to the mix.
Samite was awake, alert, and dreaming.
A passive crowd looked on in dumbfounded stagnancy. They clapped when the overture was complete, but they weren't getting the message.
Samite continued to sing his life's story. Song after song, his thoughts and emotions poured out in harmony and lyric. Their message began to paint a portrait for the crowd of a land separated from their own by sea and thousands of miles. Separated by languages and diplomatic policies, and yet somehow similar, and in some respect yet undetected, both places were the same.
As the music continued, Samite's audience became more acutely aware of the mood, and more obtusely unaware of the surroundings. A slight transformation had begun. Feet begin to tap. Hands begin to clap.
The Ugandan begins to sing "Silina Musango."
"Homeless is not my name," Samite says. "My mother calls me baby."
And like a hand reaching out taking hold, a link between the entertainer and the entertained is established.
The native tongue of Luganda does nothing to impair the change. Communication has begun, transcending clumsy verbal expressions.
Mothers and children are dancing in the isles and in front of the stage. But the bulk of the audience lingers in hesitation. Children, the least inhibited by the possible social repercussions of spontaneous improvisational behavior, lead the wave of defecting Joplinites given their first taste of a new treat.
At Samite's urging in between pieces, the crowd unites in uniform, non-verbal communication. As if Samite's soliciting serves as some sort of socially applicable get-out-of-jail-free card, the audience suddenly becomes engulfed in the song. Samite, like a gardener planting wild flowers, smiles as his creation grows beyond his control. The crowd is awake, alert, and dreaming.
The message is a simple one. It is a message Samite learned while in a refugee camp in Kenya.
"I learned that despite class or education, we all share the same feelings," he says. "There are many differences and complexities, but in the end we all share our common humanity."
"It's a brilliant way to spring into another culture," said Dr. Karl Schmidt, assistant professor of history at Southern. "If you live in Joplin, you might never see this."
And almost as soon as it had begun, the performance is over.
The crowd that left Webster Hall might not have been any more capable of locating Uganda on a map, but they felt closer just the same. Despite social, economic, and physical barriers separating Uganda from America, both lands share the same horizon when viewed from the heart

Juneau police are recommending three Juneau teens be charged in connection with throwing rocks Sunday at vehicles in the Mendenhall Valley, injuring at least one person.
Police say they received several calls about rocks being thrown in the area of Stephen Richards Drive and Mendenhall Loop Road. When they investigated, police found two juvenile boys and an 18-year-old hiding in the bushes, and one had rocks in his hands. Police questioned the boys and released them to their parents.
Then they learned a 6-year-old boy had been cut by flying debris when a rock smashed through the rear window of the vehicle in which he was riding. His mother stopped the vehicle and called 911. The boy was taken to the hospital by ambulance, where he was treated for a severe laceration to his cheek.
Now police say the boys who were allegedly throwing the rocks may be charged with assault, criminal mischief, false information to law enforcement and minor consuming.

For these reasons, Democrats should recommit themselves and the nation to redresssing that balance.

Steve Jordan bass drum size?
1 Attachment(s)
so many bass drum threads..
Anyway, anyone know what size kick Jordan is using at this Crossroads concert with John Mayer Trio? It looks a lot smaller than his normal 24"... or is he that huge? haha
Re: Steve Jordan bass drum size?
I think it's a 20. When he plays his 24, he sometimes has an 18 to the left.
Sometimes he sets up two kits and goes back and forth between the two.
Re: Steve Jordan bass drum size?
Looks like a 12/14/20set up. Your standard all purpose drum sizes. Doc
Re: Steve Jordan bass drum size?
Yeah, looks like a 20" to me too. He also sets up a secondary kit on his left, with some bigger hats, a ride, snare and a sort of small diameter cannon-like bass drum. (a 16"x20" maybe?) I thought your thread was about that one!!! hehe.
Awesome player. Pure groove.
Steve Jordan + Pino Palladino = Probably the best possible rhythm section. Any guitarist's heaven.

Love it! Wish I would of purchased the larger one, but still love it. Love the outside pocket for cell phone.

I love this bag because it is simple, classy and timeless. I bought one for my mom as well. The leather is really soft. I really like the interior lining. I have been using it everyday. The size is great as well - not too big, not too small.
- Kristin - customer
- December 20, 2014
The purse is the best! The leather is lovely and it's comfortable to carry (I use the short strap only). It has two critical criteria for a purse: (1) has an outside pocket large enough for easy access to transit card, car keys, and phone; (2) has a non-black interior so you can actually find your stuff. I hope they never discontinue this style!

I love this bag! The leather is soft and pliable. It is the perfect medium sized bag. It holds everything and isn't bulky. I like that it has a hand strap and a shoulder/cross body strap as well.
- Debby S - customer
- from Rhode Island
- September 1, 2014
This is the perfect midsize bag. Small enough that it doesn't feel heavy when worn as a cross body, but big enough to fit all of the essentials and more. The front pocket is perfect for those need to grab quick items, like a phone or keys, AND it has a zipper. The leather is incredibly soft and top notch Kate Spade quality. I love this bag and eventually plan on purchasing in another color. Here's to hoping the fall collection has more of the Little Curtis!

The black J88i Headphones from JBL offer an over-ear, closed-back design with powerful 50mm drivers and extended bass response for high-quality music listening and DJing. They also have a 3-button remote and mic for phone calls and music control that is compatible with Apple iPhone and iPod devices.
In addition the J88i headphones feature a 180-degree DJ pivot mechanism that allows you to rotate the earcups while you're wearing them so you can keep one ear on your music and the other ear on external sounds. This is great for DJing or for simply hearing someone that is talking to you. You can also fold both earcups at once for compact storage and transport.
The headphones also have a detachable flat elastomer cable that is designed to help prevent tangling, as well as a rugged strain relief above the connector to protect the cable when it gets pulled.
- Included padded carry pouch keeps the headphones safe for storage and travel
- Soft leather ear cushions for comfort during extended listening sessions. They also provide an acoustic seal over the ear, improving noise reduction

Security at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE) has been reviewed following the theft of rare plants. The indications are that particular plants – including alpines, begonias and ferns have been targeted.
These recent incidents have occurred in the Glasshouses, where horticulturists have reported plants showing indications of damage caused by the removal of cuttings. It is believed these cuttings could have been taken by someone with horticultural knowledge, by the way the cuttings were taken and by recognising plant material that is not readily available commercially.
Such incidents are particularly sensitive in an organisation where the prime motivation is to grow plant material for research, conservation and education purposes: and which adheres to strict regulations regarding the non-commercial nature of elements of its priceless living collection.
However, substantial efforts are also made to engage with the public by creating attractive, natural looking landscapes to be enjoyed by all ages. While there is a desire to display as diverse a range of plants as possible and to highlight what plants the scientists in the Garden are working on, there are concerns that such on-going loss of plant material could restrict the range of species put on public display. This is an option RBGE will hope to avoid, in the interests of the majority of visitors and plant enthusiasts who come to the Garden to enjoy the spectacle of rare and unusual plants.
While the recent spate of thefts has necessitated increased cctv coverage of particularly vulnerable areas of the 72-acre Garden, staff are keen to speak to visitors and explain what sets RBGE – and other leading botanic gardens around the world - apart from typical visitor attractions.
We would ask visitors to approach staff if they believe they have witnessed suspicious behaviour.
Police Scotland are aware of the situation.

In 2009, I was called upon to help Greensboro College, a small, 174-year-old private liberal arts college in North Carolina, which was experiencing a whole range of problems typical of many institutions of higher education in recent years. In the booming economy of the early 2000s, the college had made some big real-estate purchases. It had started a football program, graduate programs and a marching band. But as the economy started to sour in 2008, its bankers got worried, and the college found itself placed in the Special Assets department. The bankers gave an ultimatum: Hire a chief restructuring officer and use much of the endowment to secure the college's debt, or face very stringent terms for renewing its credit facility.
In addition, the college's accreditation was under threat because of its financial problems.
The college's food services had been delivered the same way for 50 years and the facilities were outdated. It had graduated one French major, on average, every five years, yet the department maintained five full-time faculty members. Its fundraising practices were not working to produce the income the college needed. Sound familiar?
Many colleges are experiencing similar problems. They range from big public institutions such as the City College of San Francisco, California's largest college, which is facing possible closure, to the prestigious University of Virginia – my alma mater – to traditionally-black Morris Brown College in Atlanta, which recently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
As a turnaround professional, I've seen these problems from the inside, and although these institutions face some unique challenges, they suffer from a range of pathologies that are similar across all troubled businesses.
University leaders are rarely lacking in commitment – but that commitment doesn't help keep the books, maintain infrastructure, or communicate with important stakeholders. They still need to meet a payroll and make hard choices about how to allocate resources in tough economic times. And like other businesses, they often face internal challenges: generational tensions when old ways of doing business become obsolete; entrenched cultural norms; myopic management.
But in some ways, colleges and universities are not like other businesses. A for-profit business has many constituencies, but one rises above the rest: its shareholders. A college or university has many additional stakeholders: alumni, donors, its governing body, its faculty, its student body, its accrediting body and parents. Government agencies may also control research budgets.
In addition, large universities are answerable to the myriad professions with an interest in how students at its graduate and professional schools are educated. Without maintaining the goodwill of all these groups, it's hard for a college to fulfill its mission. Yet many of them have competing – and not always compatible – agendas.
For public universities such as UVa., the picture is complicated further by the addition of politicians, with their own competing and sometimes contradictory agendas, expecting that students should be educated at a reasonable price, while the college simultaneously cuts costs and manages to retain top faculty members and attract talented students. Scary.
In the case of UVa., Rector Helen Dragas, a real-estate developer, found that her corporate experience had not prepared her for academia. Dissatisfied with the speed at which President Teresa Sullivan was moving to cut costs, she forced Sullivan to resign. The university community – alumni, students, faculty – were outraged, and fought back with weapons that would have been irrelevant in a corporate coup. The opinions of the university's many constituencies did matter, after all. Eventually, and humiliatingly, Dragas had to back down. Sullivan was reinstated.
Given these competing constituencies, and adding into the mix the challenges of a recession and a looming student debt crisis, we may soon see more colleges succumbing to internal strife, external pressures, or both.
Clash of Cultures
Much of my work involves understanding these competing sets of concerns. But the problem goes beyond the simple self-interest of each group. In fact, there are competing cultures, with different values, different assumptions about a university's role in the world, and different ways of doing business.
A gentle reality check on the idealistic academics from a neutral party – backed up with data and a practical plan – can accomplish more than hectoring and threats from an impatient board member. And the reality check can go in the opposite direction, as well. A business-minded board member may want to ditch any academic exercise that's not producing tangible benefits for the institution. But maybe the inclusion of classics, say, in the curriculum, is what keeps two or three important donors engaged; or maybe it forms a part of the institution's longstanding identity.
Now add a recession. For a private college, the three main sources of income are tuition, donations and investment income. All three of those things suffer in a financial downturn. Many of these colleges also have public debt. If their debt is downgraded, it's just part of a cascade of problems that now includes increased scrutiny from their bank or frightening off prospective students or donors.
For public colleges, sources of funding dry up as taxpayers demand restraint and governments at all levels look for ways to cut costs. At Greensboro College (N.C.), I worked with the senior management team, including a new board chair, interim president and new VP of finance. In 2010, I helped bring in a new permanent president, Dr. Lawrence Czarda, and together we did a thorough analysis of its resources, its infrastructure and its finances. We found a range of issues, from an insecure IT system, to antiquated food services, to unsustainable academic majors.
Working with Dr. Czarda and his team, I was able to implement the needed changes quickly and with a minimum of trauma. Dr. Czarda reflected later that, as president, he alone could not have confronted obsolete practices, or pointed out too-cozy relationships between a board member and administration. I pointed the college to resources they would not have known about: fundraising consultants with experience in similar institutions; debt restructuring consultants who focus on higher education.
The college sold off non-critical real estate, restructured its capital campaign, upgraded and secured its IT systems, eliminated some under-enrolled majors, outsourced food services, found creative ways to boost enrollment and retention, and used part-time faculty, assistant professors and teaching assistants to teach some courses and sections. With these innovations at work, I negotiated with bankers to create some breathing room, allowing the college enough time to get its finances back on track.
My work with the college ended in early 2011 and I'm happy to report that they continue to make strong progress on returning to financial stability.
The Future
The worst of the recession may have passed, but many colleges are still vulnerable. The looming student loan bubble will complicate the landscape for years to come. More students will need financial aid, and colleges struggling with falling enrollment will feel pressure to lower admission standards to meet enrollment goals.
Colleges and universities at all levels will need to get very disciplined with their finances. They will have to make sure that what they're offering is what's in demand – from the constituencies that matter.
Like any struggling business, colleges facing tough times may benefit from the experience of a dispassionate outsider who can look at the entire picture and help with the hard choices – before a public crisis erupts.
Bottom line: As in other businesses, it sometimes takes an impartial outsider to sift through the data and the concerns of various constituencies, speak truths that insiders may know but fear expressing, track down important resources, challenge entrenched practices and get antagonistic groups talking to each other. It can make all the difference.

One of the things I have the pleasure of doing in my career is speaking. As I've advanced through my career in the past few years I've found myself teaching and lecturing about social media to professionals, students, and interested parties at conferences.
If you've wanted to learn social media, join me on Thursday July 17th, at Sandbox Suites in Santa Clara at 6:00 p.m. for Social Media 101 with the Ignition Foundation, a 501(3)(c) not-for-profit bringing technology related topics to the masses. Best of all, this is free and food is provided. Bring your laptop!
Those new to social media and also looking to learn more should join this event. Here are my top 4 reasons to come:
- Social media is a critical component of marketing now – and it's important to think like a social marketer. Knowing how to create conversation socially is one thing, but using social media for business is another.
- Social media as a career is a growing position – Do you want to be a part of that?
- Social media is not just social media. There's analytics, content management, content creation, and more involved. Love video? Measuring numbers? Writing? There's a spot for you in this industry. Come and see where you would fit in!

|MC311 Customer Service Center to Extend Hours of Operation; Call Center Logs One-Millionth Service Request
Starting in late summer, Montgomery County's MC311 Customer Service Center (CSC) will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday. Currently the CSC operates from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
An analysis conducted in April indicated a significant number of customers were attempting to reach 311 after 5 p.m. Between 135 and 175 calls hit the 311 switch between 5 and 7 p.m. This means that an additional 700 to 800 customers a week or more than 3,000 additional customers a month that could be served in the extra two hours.
"Since our MC311 call center began operations almost two years ago, County residents have been able to call one, three-digit number to access County services or to report a problem," said Office of Public Information Director Patrick Lacefield. "Expanding our hours will allow us to handle more calls and accommodate residents who need to call in the evening when they get home from work. And – also good news – we will be able to accommodate this expansion of hours within already existing resources."
During the development phase of MC311 in 2009, the County anticipated a 24/7 operation. Shortly before launch in June 2010, a decision was made to operate 10 hours-a-day, five days-a-week until there was a better understanding of call volume and staffing needs. The self-service website, www.MC311.com, is available 24 hours-a-day, seven days-a-week. Over the past two years, increased portal usage and significant improvements in the call center operations has created greater efficiencies in the CSC.
As the MC311 operation approaches its two-year anniversary in mid-June, a major milestone has been reached. The call center logged its one-millionth service request.
Since the CSC opened, call volume has averaged 40,000 calls per month. The 311 web portal, which allows residents to find answers and check on the status of service requests, has consistently averaged 25,000 views per month. With the extended hours taking effect in late summer, call numbers are expected to rise.
In coming months a date will be announced for when the extended hours will begin.
For more information about MC311, call the Office of Public Information at 240-777-6507. To reach the call center, dial 311, or 240-777-0311 or TTY 301-251-4850, or visit www.MC311.com.

This shop is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group™ and Project 7but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #chewforchange http://cmp.ly/3/8vNxcOThis is not the easiest post to write. I am one week into my "lifestyle change," and it's tough. Last week after having a particularly bad day, my husband and I sat down for a talk. Not so much a talk about our relationship, but about the way we have been living. We talked about the fact that we are both in need of some changes with our jobs…he needs to hit it hard this final quarter, and I need to get more organized and come up with a better schedule. We also talked about our weight, and the fact that we need to do better with the healthy eating. Ugh…this is the really tough part. Okay, so I am a blogger, and I absolutely love that I can do what I love every single day, and that I can help other moms make changes in their lives without breaking the bank. What I do not love at all is the weight I have gained. Blogging is a busy job…between creating projects, photographing them, editing them, writing the posts, and then blasting them on social media, there isn't much time for cooking meals during the day. So, I've been snacking instead of eating meals. The snacks I have been eating are usually pretty unhealthy. If only there were some way to eat well on a time crunch! Well, folks, I finally think I found something that will help me, and maybe it will help you too! I got the chance to try out Lean Cuisine Honestly Good meals, and was really pleasantly surprised!
Lean Cuisine has launched a new collection of Lean Cuisine Honestly Good meals featuring 6 different varieties full of 100% all natural, wholesome ingredients with a sauce you can add yourself. I went shopping at Target last week, and decided to try the plum ginger grain-crusted fish, honey citrus chicken, and pineapple black pepper beef. I'm going to be really honest with you…I was skeptical about the taste. I've tried other freezer meals in the past, and was not impressed. These are actually fabulous…no kidding!
I am trying to eat more fish, so I decided to start with the plum ginger grain-crusted fish. HOLY WOW! It was amazing! Within 5 minutes I had what felt like a gourmet meal to me! The plum ginger sauce made the dish absolutely amazing!
I didn't have to take the time to sit in front of the stove, so I was able to get some photo editing done while it was cooking in my microwave, and took some time to sit down and really enjoy the meal. It's amazing how refreshing it was to actually sit down and enjoy a healthy, delicious meal in the middle of the day!
I'll be enjoying lunch from now on, and eating healthy at the same time! Win – Win!!! I can't tell you how much better I feel at the end of the day. I'm less tired, I don't feel guilty because I'm eating well, and I'm just in a much better mood all together!
Some great news…The ingredients in the Honestly Good dishes are grown by select farmers, and together with some of the farmers, they are donating a portion of the vegetables grown for Honestly Good to local communities!
Now that's something I can stand behind!
So…are you struggling with weight loss? What would make it easier for you to make a lifestyle change?

I've always thought that was a myth--and besides, they do quite well on the road as well.
"Scrappy Doo".
OK, THAT'S funny.
"If MLB and NFL can find a way to share stadiums."
They can't.
The only place left that does is Miami, and that won't be the case after this season.
Pretty sure the stick to Rutkowski's face by Wudrick was well after he put the puck in the net. And that was just careless stick work by Wudrick. On the forums it was claimed it couldn't be a high stick because Rutkowski was so low. I don't know about that, but, unlike the Leipsic call, that had to be SOMETHING.
Yeah, I forgot to mention it, but the moment in the second period where Wrenn and Aronson went off with matching roughing/unsportsmanlike minors with Mackenzie Johnston and Tyler Goulbourne--who combined have 5 points in 71 games--won't go down in Great Moments in Winterhawks Discipline.
I guess I ordered mine after the first two games were set, so I got 1 and 2 at the Rose Garden, and then two sets of "C" to the end, one with my RG seats and one with my MC seats.
You're probably right. I did say I probably had him too low. A lot of it is a function of role.
It will be announced in mid-April, subject to both teams winning two playoff series. :-)
Yeah, it could be. From what I heard it was more of a soft goal, not really the fault of the power play.
A quick Google suggested six weeks for a broken collarbone (WE'RE NOT DOCTORS--I can't stress that enough). Which would be about two playoff rounds, wouldn't it? By the way, WE'RE NOT DOCTORS. Which should have been obvious last night when we were all talking about the head. We're just guessing until something substantive happens.
That was weird. Maybe we'll get an explanation tonight.
Oops, I think I had that wrong all night. Cold medicine must have affected me more than I realized. Thanks to both of you for correcting that.
Especially "cares".
Never a fan of the penalty+dive even-up, but if you're going to call it, it looked like a pretty good call to me.
Some gentlemen sitting behind me might take issue with Rutkowski.
I get the conventional wisdom about goalie pulls. I've never bought it though.
I was thinking about both goalies getting stars myself. I wonder if it's ever happened before--more likely a case where one goalie got injured partway through and the other replaced him.
If Johnston can make dressing 7 D and keeping 8 D on the roster work, he's a genius. He just might be.
I don't agree that Ross has struggled. He's almost a point a game. You take the good with the bad; of course in Ross's case there's more of a debate about how much there is of each. He suffers in comparison to Nino and Johansen, which isn't really his fault. His edge and Glennie's reported lack of edge might be too much of a shock to this team. You keep him and hope he finds the sweet spot between hard and effective and being out of control.
Eight d-men is an interesting thought. Trott's place on the roster has been odd all year, in how he sits so they can play seven d-men, and he only plays at the last, last possible resort. I'm not saying it's wrong, and he has the WHL on his resume and he gets at least a year of scholarship money.
You can do that in the NHL. I can't see how it would work here, where you a) have to worry about relationships with NHL teams for looking after their draft choices and b) have to worry about maintaining a reputation for not screwing young players who are potential draft picks. You could argue I guess that this is a special case.
I meant to hype the PK more--sometimes it gets lost in the format. Yes, I would agree that the PK won them the game.
If anything, I think Ross was lucky not to get a couple more calls on incidents with Schmidt. He got an extra (second) slash in the first time, and could very well have gotten something on the play where Schmidt overreacted--he did start the thing.

Summer, bunched carrots are my favourites – sweet and delicate, great for simply munching raw or grated into salads. The first of these to appear in spring come from Spain and have a particularly good flavour.
To cook summer carrots: There's absolutely no need to peel here – just rinse them under a cold-running tap and cut off the stalks only, just a fraction above the end. This leaves the inside of the carrot intact and, I feel, preserves the flavour. Place them in a steamer, sprinkle with a little salt and steam for about 7 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a skewer but still retaining some firmness and bite. Serve plain, or I like them tossed in butter mixed with some chopped fresh tarragon leaves.
To cook winter carrots: These are available from storage all year round. My favourite way to cook them plainly is to scrape off the skins and cut them into 2 inch (5 cm) chunks, then place them in a saucepan with salt and enough boiling water to barely cover them. Give them about 20 minutes, or until tender but with a little firm bite in the centre, then drain and place them in a food processor and, using the pulse movement, 'chop' the carrots quite small, but don't overdo it or you'll have a purée.
Quickly return them to the saucepan using a spatula to scrape them back in quickly, add a knob of butter and some freshly milled black pepper, then place them over a gentle heat and stir them around for a couple of minutes to get the heat back in.
1 lb (450 g) of carrots will serve 4.
Chestnut Soup with Bacon and Thyme Croutons
Ready-cooked chestnuts allow you to make this quck, easy, low-fat soup in no time at all and you'll be well rewarded: the chestnuts add richness and a sweet flavour for a perfect winter soup.
Winter Vegetable Pie with a Parmesan Crust
Filled with wintry root veg and a cheesy sauce, with a parmesan pastry, this pie is a real treat! Replace the lard with vegetable fat if making this for vegetarians.
Sauteed Spiced Vegetables with Lentils
A simple and cheap vegetarian recipe for one that's certainly full of flavour! Adapt it to suit other vegetables if you prefer and serve it with filling and nutritious brown rice.
Lentil and Vegetable Curry
Lentils and other pulses are invaluable if you need to eat cheaply - not only do they fill you up but they are also an important source of pure protein and less expensive than chicken or meat. This spicy veggie curry is a good example…
Carrot and Leek Soup
Using the best of winter's root vegetables, this hearty soup is packed with nutritional goodness and will make a good lunch or supper for one.
Chicken Pot Roast
Pot roasts used to be very fashionable and deserve a revival - wintry one-pot casseroles like this one make the most of seasonal root veg and help you to feed the family cheaply.
Thick Country Soup
Vegetarians and meat-eaters alike will love this really thick soup crammed with beans, rice and a host of wintry veg. All you need is some good bread and cheese to go with it…
Baby Summer Vegetables with Lemon Vinaigrette
Make the most of summer beans and other vegetables in this gorgeous vegetarian recipe which can be eaten on its own or as an accompaniment. And if the weather is less than kind, you can serve it warm instead of cold as a salad.
The London Particular
Split peas and bacon make this a hearty, appetising and filling soup for a winter's day. Incidentally it's so-named after the 'peasouper' fogs that embroiled London in earlier times.
Autumn Lamb Braised in Beaujolais
You could make this at any time of the year, but in Delia's view autumn lamb gives the most flavourful results. Serve it with plenty of mashed potato and root veg.
