SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Gold futures settled lower Tuesday, for a second session in a row, pressured by a debt deal on Greece, a stronger dollar and generally upbeat U.S. economic data.
Gold for December delivery US:GCZ2 fell $7.30, or 0.4%, to settle at $1,742.30 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. Prices slipped by a modest 0.1% on Monday.
December silver futures US:SIZ2 also shed 16 cents, or 0.5%, to end at $33.98 an ounce.
A meeting to discuss Greece's finances wrapped up early Tuesday with Greece's institutional lenders reaching a deal to pave the way for Athens to receive almost 44 billion euros (almost $57 billion) of financial aid, while bringing its debt down to a sustainable level. The deal is expected to trigger another aid payment for the debt-struck country.
Fiscal cliff talks stuck in low gear
Leaders tackling the fiscal cliff return to Washington Monday with the eyes of the world on them and seemingly only one point settled: that they've all pledged to try for an agreement.
The dollar has strengthened, "with the euro coming off a bit since the Greek debt deal was announced," said Ben Traynor, chief economist at BullionVault.
The ICE dollar index DXY, -0.03% climbed to 80.411 from 80.227 late Monday in North American trading. Strength in the greenback weighs on prices for dollar-denominated commodities such as gold.
There are "a lot of ifs and maybes in the statement put out by the eurogroup," Traynor said. And "in the end, we got a bit of everything, though much of it is on a conditional basis." See: Euro zone, IMF agree on Greece debt deal.
So, "the market seems unconvinced by the Greek deal," said Traynor.
Currency pull
For now, HSBC analysts said that gold's path is likely to show sensitivity to moves for the euro against the U.S. dollar, and they had expected the euro to advance modestly if lenders agreed over financial-aid disbursement to Greece.
The euro EURUSD, +0.2553% rose to as high as $1.3007 against the greenback on Tuesday. It traded at $1.2961 ahead of the announcement of the initial deal on Greek aid, but was last at $1.2928, down from $1.2961 Monday.
Barring sharp currency moves or unexpected economic developments, the HSBC analysts expected this week's contract expirations would exert the greatest near-term influence on gold. The front-month November gold contract US:GCX2 expires at the close on Wednesday, though much of the trading volume had moved to the December contract long ago.
"With much trading activity gravitating around the $1,750 an ounce level, we anticipate the expiration will be modestly price-positive for gold. Beyond that, we believe gold and silver prices will tend toward consolidation, as investors await further developments on the U.S. fiscal-cliff negotiations," the analysts said.
The fiscal cliff refers to more than $600 billion of automatic U.S. tax hikes and spending cuts due to occur in January unless circumvented beforehand.

That's Memphis
I could go ahead and take a aMm in a Ziploc bag and bury it in the backyard to protect the king-in-waiting?
How can that be Memphis when the place was full of Hog fans.
When I think of wet games, that 2001 Tennessee game isn't far behind the Bama game the year before.Band couldn't even stay out, so they piped the fight song through the speakers for the running through the A. I remember the entire crowd that was brave enough to stand out in the rain singing along loudly enough to the point that it sounded like we had just all sang on our own in unison. Really fricking cool.That was also the first night of the south endzone. Security was overwhelmed and everyone and their daughter/uncle/grandpa were in the concourse of the indoor/outdoor club areas to stay dry and warm. It was shoulder to shoulder on both levels. Multiple lightning delays... one that I was convinced was really just because you could barely stand up straight it was raining so heavily. Clusterfuck of a night, but one people always remember.
Remember it well. I almost added it to the list, but most of the rain had already happened all day prior to the game. By the time the game came, it was still raining somewhat, but it was the lightning and the delays. One of those "weird" nights and a sparse crowd for ESPN game vs Tennessee. Great game (and cover!) although it was like 13-3 or something.And since we seem to have another theme of games where there were only like 6 people at the end, the 2003 Florida game was up there despite the great weather. Yes, this was the "Bua game". We were down something like 31-3 at half and the place just gutted. Then, we staged a huge comeback and damn near came all the way back. It was like a carnival experience for those of us still around. At one point, I turned around and there was literally no one for 25 rows behind us. Strange.
I was at both of those games, and at a lot of the games mentioned in this thread. I'll never forget going to the aMm game in Fayetteville toward the end of the '97 season. It was in the afternoon on a pretty nice day, and there were maybe 30,000 people there at the start of the game, and that's probably being generous.We won the game, but I just mostly remember it for how empty the stadium was.
Fuck it, little rock should be happy with what ever scraps are thrown our way.

Great game (and cover!) although it was like 13-3 or something.
I was there for that one, too. That was my senior year. It was a gorgeous day and we were a 11 pt. dog (why I remember this aMm, I'll never know) and won straight up. Student section was "ok", but like you said, the rest of the stadium was sparse at best. And that was when we had "half" of the stadium we have now.
Well, since this thread is already derailed, I'll just mention the 2002 Troy State game in Little Rock: cold, windy, raining pretty much the entire game, and we played like ass. The final was 23-0 or something like that, but it took a couple of defensive/special teams TDs to get there.I don't know what that has to do with RRS and Fayetteville, though.
That was a pretty miserable weather day. I was at that game, too. Both DeMarcus Ware and Osi Umenyiora were on Troy's D-line in that game.
This is exactly where we are at, dead on: To everyone that is hushing the Gruden talk, stop it, there IS a deal in place...
I was a junior that year. If I remember right, it was like opening weekend of deer season and we were playing our way through the end of a really bad year. I think it was like the next-to-last game of the year. It was a really, really nice day, though. I remember them selling student tickets for $1 per game that year just to try to get some students out there. There was a LOT of apathy at that time in the fanbase, for good reason.
I was telling a guy I work with(he is from Kentucky) about this today at work. He couldn't believe it. He has beento a coupl of games during the earlier Hootie years and that's about it. He was convinced I was lieing.I remember they were selling them not just to students, but tO anyone with a state ID, and a friend of mine bought $20 worth. We couldn't even get 20 people to go with us
baylor 1991 - final swc game in nam. not much shelter from storms back then at razorback stadium - very cold and inches of snow. jason allen went down that game and so did th razorbacks.
Resonance...metal folding chairs or hard tile floors cannot be beaten when it comes to firing off a loud fart.
holy aMmtwitters saying that WMSC is discussing hosting a bowl game.
I am not claiming I am right, I am saying I don't get it.
You've never seen rain unless you were at the 1993 Tulsa game. It rained so hard you could not see the other side of the stadium.
Animal Bowl?John Daly Drunken Golf Bowl?
All kidding aside it has to be the Wal Mart Bowl, right?

Athlete of the Week
Ingrid Freeman
Freeman hit four three-pointers and scored 16 points to lead the Titans past Pilgrim in the non-league season opener on Thursday. The Titans went all of last year without a win.
"I'm speechless," Freeman said. "We work so hard in practices. Coach has said we're really focused this year, and we want wins. We're tired of losing. It's nice to come together as a team and have that opportunity."

Christian Children's Fund of Canada (CCFC) is a child-focused international development organization based in Markham, Ontario. CCFC is a member of ChildFund Alliance, a worldwide group of 12 child-centred development organizations working in 58 countries to implement lasting and meaningful change for children and families.
Our Mission
Christian Children's Fund of Canada creates a future of hope for children, families and communities by helping them develop the skills and resources to overcome poverty and pursue justice. For more than 50 years, we have followed the example of Christ by serving the poor regardless of their faith, cultural, and ethnic background.
Our Vision
We dream of a world where every child has a voice and the ability to achieve their full potential.
CCFC at a Glance:
Our History: From One Man's Vision to a Global Partnership
CCFC's roots date back to the late 1930s, when American Presbyterian missionary, Dr. J. Calvitt Clarke, along with Dr. Verent Mills, began working with Chinese war orphans. Moved by their suffering, Dr. Clarke created the China Children's Fund (CCF) in 1938. Less than a decade later, Mills joined as regional director in Shanghai. Born in Birmingham, England, and raised in Winnipeg, Canada, Mills had been a missionary in South China since the early 1930s.
In the 1950s, the organization expanded its work from Asia into the Middle East in the aftermath of the Second World War and renamed itself Christian Children's Fund. By the 1960s, CCF had a global reach, and growing Canadian support led to the creation of Christian Children's Fund of Canada.
While CCFC is a member of the ChildFund Alliance, we are a fully independent organization, with our own Board of Directors and programs.
We Help Children and More
Christian Children's Fund of Canada is focused on the needs of children for basic necessities such as access to food, water, education, and health care. CCFC meets these needs through an innovative program of child sponsorship that has an impact not only on the lives of sponsored children, but also on their families and their communities. With five forward-looking program sectors — Education, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene, Health and Nutrition, Sustainable Livelihood Development, and Strengthening Community Organizations, we support communities to become self-reliant. However, in the case of emergencies, CCFC assists with emergency relief.
A Future of Hope Through Self-Sufficiency
CCFC's aim is to create a future of hope. That means eventual self-sufficiency for children and their families.
Many CCFC programs are designed to enable, encourage, and train people to use their own skills and abilities to meet their needs. An important aspect of this approach is small-scale economic development, which assists in the creation of worthwhile small businesses in communities where sponsored children live. We call this Sustainable Livelihoods.
On The Ground: The Strength of Partners
One of CCFC's greatest strengths is its reliance on established local organizations on the ground. Our partners are local organizations in our countries of operation. They are experts in local customs and know the communities better than anyone else; they have the aptitude to deliver solutions. To ensure our program funds are well spent, CCFC staff visit each project site regularly, monitoring progress and results.

Just like Pilgrim, the Vets baseball team had a lot of work to do last week and got it done in impressive fashion.

Then on Thursday, the 'Canes beat defending state champion Cranston West for the second time this season and clinched a playoff berth in the process. Kevin Hickey (pictured) struck out seven in the complete-game victory. Vets is in the playoffs for the first time since 2009.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA) - A WUSA9 top ten list of General Service Administration earnings shows some workers earning paychecks larger than the vice president and an electrician supervisor earning more than the highest paid members of Congress.
"They absolutely should be explaining," said U.S. Rep. Jeff Denham (R-Ca.), who chairs the House subcommittee responsible for GSA oversight. "We are so frustrated with the overall abuse and fraud, that I've actually asked the question, do we need the GSA at all."
Click here to see the original WUSA9 investigation that uncovered $30M in unreported GSA bonuses.
Follow Twitter.com/russptacek or Facebook.com/russptacek for our continuing GSA investigation.
GSA does not respond to interview request
GSA has not responded to multiple WUSA9 requests for an interview, but did reissue a statement saying "all agency operations" are under review.
"The agency is evaluating its current structure and the overall compensation process," said GSA spokesman Dan Cruz in a statement. "(GSA Acting Administrator Dan) Tangherlini cut bonuses for senior executives and instituted a hiring freeze."
Some GSA salaries higher than Vice President and Chief Justice
According to fiscal year 2011 data analyzed by WUSA9, every GSA worker on the agency's payroll top ten makes more than $200,000 a year in pay that is heavily weighed by bonuses and/or unused leave pay, or like an electrician supervisor falling at number seven on the top ten list, $100,000 in overtime alone.
All of the GSA top ten earners make more than Congressman Denham's $174,000 Congressional salary and six of the top ten GSA earners cashed paychecks bigger than the Vice President's $230,700, and more than the $223,500 earned by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
GSA Top 10 Total 2011 Earnings
GSA Top 10 weighed by bonuses, leave pay, and overtime
The GSA workers shared in the millions in GSA bonuses, unused leave pay, and overtime exposed by a WUSA9 Freedom of Information Act request.
Congressman Denham plans an Congressional inquiry based upon the findings of the WUSA9 analysis.
Denham wants explanations for GSA's top ten highest earners, the top ten largest overtime recipients, the top ten recipients of leave pay identified by our 9 Wants to Know investigation, and the top ten largest bonus recipients.
GSA Top Ten Award/Bonus Recipients
1) Bonus: $79,000.00 DEPUTY COMMISSIONER
2) Bonus: $54,640.00 REGIONAL COMMISSIONER
3) Bonus: $51,820.00 REGIONAL COMMISSIONER
4) Bonus: $51,700.00 ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER
5) Bonus: $23,716.00 DEPUTY INSPECTOR GENERERAL
6) Bonus: $20,300.00 REGIONAL COMMISSIONER
7) Bonus: $20,000.00 ASSISTANT ADMINISTRATOR
8) Bonus: $19,800.00 COUNSEL TO THE IG
9) Bonus: $19,320.00 ASST IG FOR AUDITING
10) Bonus: $18,400.00 ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER
In its statement, the GSA said it is reviewing all bonuses and the entire performance award system.
"We've got to put a stop to it," Denham said after reviewing the WUSA9 analysis. "The question we're asking is what are all these different categories of overtime. What are all the different categories of bonuses?"
WUSA9 analysis includes more than 13,000 GSA payroll records
To create the top ten lists in four GSA categories, 9 Wants to Know analyzed over 13,000 fiscal year 2011 payroll records.
For accounting purposes, the U.S. government fiscal year begins on October 1 the previous year and ends on September 30 of the year recorded in the fiscal year.
A Washington electrician made the top ten for overtime in 2011 with more than half of his $214,929 paycheck coming from overtime alone.
Our investigation identified GSA paying out $8 million in overtime listed under two different GSA categories.
GSA Top 10 Overtime Earners
1) ELECTRICIAN SUPERVISOR Overtime: $115,876.33
2) AIR CONDITIONING EQPMT Overtime: $111,724.08
3) UTILITY SYS REPAIR Overtime: $97,479.09
4) AIR CONDITIONING EQUIP Overtime: $89,754.36
5) ELECTRICIAN SUPERVISOR Overtime: $87,118.31
6) UTILITY SYSTEMS REPAIR Overtime: $85,825.70
7) UTILITY SYSTEMS REPAIR Overtime: $82,678.11
8) LEAD GENERAL SUPPLY Overtime: $76,716.59
9) UTILITY SYS REPAIRER Overtime: $76,533.82
10) UTILITY SYSTEMS REPAIR Overtime: $76,205.78

In a statement GSA said overtime is guided by applicable laws.
"Additionally, in 2011 the majority of GSA employees did not work overtime," GSA spokesman Dan Cruz said. "Those who did earn overtime were eligible employees who worked over 8 hours in a day, worked over 40 hours in a week, or worked on a Sunday or a holiday or an overnight shift."
Denham, who began his inquiry when the agency's $823,000 Las Vegas convention scandal unfolded,
said the data obtained by 9 Wants to Know uncovered details even unknown by Congressional investigators.
"It's extremely important," Denham said. "I've had committee members. There's eyes that light up."
Nine of the top ten GSA overtime earners we identified worked in Washington offices making $75,000 in annual overtime or more.
One Washington air conditioning mechanic earned $111,722 in overtime, that's in addition to $15,000 in bonuses and pay differentials, totaling $200,897 in annual pay.
Several of the highest workers made their spot on the top ten list because of GSA payouts of more than $7 million in unused leave pay identified by our investigation.
GSA Top 10 Unused Leave Pay & Unused Restored Leave Pay
1) Leave pay: $73,529.40 Add'l leave: $7,835.10 ASSISTANT ADMINISTRATOR
2) Leave pay: $66,777.76 REGIONAL COMMISSIONER
3) Leave pay: $65,260.80 Add'l leave: $1,188.00 DEP ASSOC ADMIN TRANSP
4) Leave pay: $65,005.50 DEPUTY ASSOCIATED ADMIN
5) Leave pay: $64,609.44 Add'l leave: $7,911.36 SENIOR ADVISOR
6) Leave pay: $63,298.32 ASST IG FOR INVESTIGATIONS
7) Leave pay: $54,541.32 CLIENT SOLUTIONS PROGR
8) Leave pay: $51,176.61 REGIONAL COMMISSIONER
9) Leave pay: $38,954.59 DIRECTOR OF HUMAN CAP
10) Leave pay: $37,881.36 REGIONAL COUNSEL
"Annual Leave is earned vacation time based upon an employee's years of service. By law, employees must be compensated for unused annual leave when leaving the agency," Cruz said in a statement.
Gail Lovelace, GSA's former human resources chief, earned lots of that money. Although GSA reported her as earning zero dollars in base and zero dollars award pay in fiscal year 2011 in an OPM database, our FOIA uncovered $257,007 in actual earnings, including $81,364 in leave pay, and $20,000 in bonuses.
In its statement the GSA said Lovelace was paid for the leave, in accordance with government policy, upon her departure from four decades of service with the agency.
"Gail Lovelace was a federal employee for nearly 40 years," GSA's Cruz said in a statement. GSA "paid for her unused leave time when she retired."
Like that electrician, she was among the GSA's ten highest paid employees in our analysis taking home SOME OF biggest government checks in America.

The following in an unedited response from GSA:
Three months ago, Acting Administrator Dan Tangherlini began a comprehensive, top to bottom review of all agency operations, which includes a review of all bon
uses and the entire performance award system. In the meantime, Tangherlini cut bonuses for senior executives and instituted a hiring freeze while the agency is evaluating its current structure and the overall compensation process.
GSA RESPONSE ON OVERTIME, LEAVE and LOCALITY
GSA pays overtime, leave, and locality pay in accordance with all applicable laws. Additionally, in 2011 the majority of GSA employees did not work overtime. Those who did earn overtime were eligible employees who worked over 8 hours in a day, worked over 40 hours in a week, or worked on a Sunday or a holiday or an overnight shift.
We can't speak to the data that was previously provided to WUSA by OPM. We report our entire payroll to OPM. As soon as WUSA requested information from GSA about our entire salary and bonus information for 2011, we provided it to them. On top of that, at the end of April we provided the Senate a list of all GSA bonuses going back to 2007. This information has and will continue to be available to the public. We will continue to be transparent and provide all information requests to Congress, the OIG and the public.
GSA EXPLANATION: What is overtime pay?
Compensation for overtime is mandated by law for eligible employees, and overtime work is compensated by overtime pay or in some cases by compensatory time. Overtime pay is generally paid to eligible employees for work over 8 hours in a day or over 40 hours in a week. Except for GSA's senior executives and managers, nearly all GSA employees are entitled to overtime compensation when it is ordered and approved; however, in 2011 most employees did not work overtime. Additionally, other types of premium pay exist for working holidays, Sundays, and overnight shifts.
GSA EXPLANATION: What is locality pay?
In addition to a base salary, federal employees' salaries may include a Locality Pay adjustment, which varies depending on the geographic location of the job and is required by law. Locality Pay takes into account the cost of living for a particular location.
GSA EXPLANATION: What is leave pay?
Annual Leave is earned vacation time based upon an employee's years of service. By law, employees must be compensated for unused annual leave when leaving the agency.

MASSENA - Peace was the buzzword at Nightengale Elementary School as students came together to celebrate the International Day of Peace.
Officially, the International Day of Peace is today, but Nightengale Elementary School students moved activities up to coincide with their school day.
The celebration culminated on Friday afternoon when the entire student body gathered side-by-side on the playground field and lined up in the form of a human peace sign.
Sixth-grade teacher Carolyn Frazier said the human peace sign and the other activities were coordinated solely by the sixth-grade students.
They did all the planning themselves. I kind of helped facilitate things, she said. It was just the sixth graders planning it, but the plan was for the while school. The whole idea was to come up with the idea that children can change the world if they think about what they can do.
The students broke down into committees and planned a number of activities, according to Ms. Frazier. They had one week to plan everything and carry out their plans, she said. Their available school time included a portion of their science and social studies class - about 15 minutes a day.
Among the activities was a coloring contest for students in pre-kindergarten through grade three. It showed two students holding a peace symbol.
One of the girls drew a picture for them to color, she said.
The sixth graders also coordinated a hippie contest, inviting Nightengales students to dress up with some sort of peace sign as part of their wardrobe.
In addition, they went around taking pictures of other students who were celebrating the International Day of Peace.
They learned to be the photographer, Ms. Frazier said.
A contest to design a shirt for Peace Day was also part of the activities, and those designs are due Monday.
The students also worked with the Nightengale Neighbors parent group to provide Tootsie Pops to all the students, wishing them a sweet Peace Day, she said, and they are planning a soccer tournament.
The work done by the students fits with their science and social studies curriculum because they need to use their research skills, Ms. Frazier said. It also fits in the schools Nightengale Elementary Behavior System, she noted.
They invited every student at the school to join them at 2:30 p.m. on the playground to stand side-by-side in the shape of a human peace symbol.
The International Day of Peace gives individuals, organizations and nations an opportunity to create practical acts of peace on a shared date. It was established by a United Nations resolution in 1981 to coincide with the opening of the General Assembly.
The first Peace Day was celebrated in September 1982. In 2002, the General Assembly officially declared Sept. 21 as the permanent date for the International Day of Peace.
Since its inception, Peace Day has grown to include millions of people in all parts of the world, according to the events website. Events are organized each year to commemorate and celebrate the day. They range in scale from private gatherings to public concerts and forums where hundreds of thousands of people participate.

(NEWS CENTER) -- A new poll released Tuesday shows a very tight race for Maine Governor.
The Pan Atlantic SMS Group Omnibus Poll shows more than 37 percent of eligible Maine voters would vote for, or are leaning toward voting for, Democratic candidate Mike Michaud, if the November 2014 election was held today.
Republican incumbent Governor Paul LePage stands at 36 percent while Independent challenger Eliot Cutler gets just over 18 percent.
Pan Atlantic's last poll of the race for governor was conducted in the Spring of 2013, prior to Michaud's announcement. Since he launched his campaign, Michaud's polling numbers have increased by 14.5 percentage points.
The poll also shows Mike Michaud is doing well among independent voters -- 34.7% to LePage's 26.4%. Eliot Cutler has 23.6% of independent voters.
The poll consisted of responses from a statewide telephone sample of 400 Maine residents. Twenty percent of the sample was cell phone users. The poll was conducted between November 25-30, 2013.

Belfast International put out its own red carpet for the arrival home of Northern Ireland's hottest movie property, Oscar winners Terry George, and his daughter, Oorlagh.
Clutching their coveted Oscars for the Best Live Action Short Film, the ecstatic father and daughter touched down on the scheduled United flight from Newark shortly before 9am.
Once through the usual checks, Terry and Oonagh entered the Arrivals Hall to a warm welcome from waiting well-wishers and media.
The airport laid out its own red carpet for the famous creators of 'The Shore' which featured Ciarán Hinds, Maggie Cronin and Conleth Hill.
'The Shore' was written and directed by Terry and produced by Oorlagh and was filmed mostly on location in Killough in County Down.
Belfast International Airport Business Development Director, Uel Hoey, was on hand to escort the couple through the Arrivals Gate.
Said Mr Hoey: "Oorlagh and Terry have given all of us involved in tourism a really big lift. Not only do we have the best golfers in the world, but we now proudly boast two of the most renowned and internationally acclaimed movie makers.
"'The Shore' shows the world what we are capable of achieving in Northern Ireland, and I'm delighted to be one of the first to congratulate Oorlagh and Terry on their triumphant return home.
"They have done us proud. Terry and the cast and crew filmed at the airport as part of a homecoming scene in the movie and we were delighted to have facilitated them. We look forward to Terry's next movie and he knows that if he wants to use this facility, he has only to lift the 'phone'."
Pictured left to right are Oorlagh George, Carál Ní Chuilín, Minister for Culture, Arts and Leisure, Terry George and Uel Hoey, Business Development Director at Belfast International Airport.

|Great American Products was co-founded in 1971 by Roger Tuttle, the current President & CEO. Initially the company was a entrepreneurial mail order firm selling into to the motorcycle market, and then emerged as a manufacturer specializing in the production and sale of hand crafted pewter buckles, which were sold to specialty shops throughout the country.
At the peak of the buckle market, in the late 1980s, GAP had a customer list of over 5,000 active customers. At that time the company expanded its product line to include miniatures, figurines, paperweights, key chains and lapel pins. GAP was emerging as a leader in the pewter casting industry.
In the early 1990s, GAP made two major changes which have helped to define the company it is today. The first was the attachment of premium metal emblems to drink ware. This gave GAP a full line of products positioned as a premium offering option to the industry standard screen printed products.
2006 marked the 35th Anniversary of Great American Products; the company realized annual sales in excess of $17 million, and has emerged as a leader in the Licensed Sports industry. New products are constantly being developed and new channels of distribution are opening up to provide further growth.

You can now enter up to 4-5 queues at the same time. Meaning you can queue for a 5 Man, Battleground, and Raids at the same time. The timer for each continues to go up even if you are participating in one of the other.
So, you can finish a 15 minute PvP match, leave and be at the front of the line for a 5 man. Just don't forget to queue for PvP again before entering the 5 man.
I use this method and usually don't have to wait over 1-2 minutes between queues.
The RP aspect of ED is pretty dead tho, except for a few outcasts erping in goldshire xD
No, they aren't. That's worldwide playerbase.

Pretty good trailer. I'm a really big fan of Orcs and I know all of the lore. It'll be good to go back and see those things. Right now, I'm playing Alliance but I may go back to Horde just to experience the Orc lore from that side on my main (Human Warrior). The trailer didn't give me goosebumps like when I saw TBC or WOTLK for the first time, but it's pretty damn good. I just wish they had made it a little longer, showing Garrosh first meeting his father Grommash, eventually leading up to the start of the cinematic where Grom was going to drink the blood of Mannoroth.
The anniversary event is going to be awesome.
The only problem is that it's dropping 2 weeks after the release of Warlords and is going to be level 100 content.
Ive already bought it so it doesn't effect me but it does seem like an evil tactic to sell more expansions on release. lol
It's Level 100 Molten Core Raid and Southshore vs Tauren Mill Battleground for those interested. Limited Time Only!

Premium Music Videos Return To YouTube
We work hard to make YouTube a place where existing fans and new audiences can discover their favourite content, whatever it might be. For the past few months, while discussions were ongoing with collection society PRS for Music, YouTube users in the UK have been restricted from viewing premium music videos on the site.
Today we are pleased to announce that an agreement for a licence has been reached and both PRS for Music and YouTube are happy that the negotiations resulted in a mutually acceptable deal. As a result of the new agreement, premium music videos in the UK are coming back to YouTube – this is good for songwriters and composers, music fans and YouTube.
In the coming days, premium music videos will begin to come back to YouTube in the UK and we intend to celebrate with a series of guest editorships from some of the foremost artists and magazine shows on the site. We'll have to wait for the appropriate content to go live before we can share more, so stay tuned.
Enough talk -- here's to the return of great music videos!

My 2 year old daughter was stuck to the screen from start to finish whilst watching Tangled. It contains lots of adult humour and enough laughs for the kids too. It is the first film I have heard my 2 year old scream with laughter at. There are a lot of funny moments, it is slapstick at its best. You won't regret buying this DVD, this is why I've rated it 5 stars.

One of the things that makes any away game hard is the travel. For most Wasatch Front schools travel to a league opponents field of play is a short drive of less than a few miles.
But when a school competes in the Utah 1A high school ranks it can be a trip that takes an eternity. That is the way the games that East Carbon plays with schools such as Dugway and Wendover seem. But another school they play is even in a category beyond that; West Desert.
Located in Trout Creek, teams must take a ride through Delta and then up a very long dirt road. It is a trip which makes many teams anxious. Besides that, the Hawks often have a good team to contend with, which was the case last week when the Vikings went to the western Utah town to play a league game. The Hawks used that strong home court advantage to beat up on East Carbon 52-36.
"People don't realize what the travel to these schools does to these kids," stated head coach Steve Gutierrez on Wednesday morning. "They are tired before they get there."
West Desert jumped out to a big lead in the first quarter, largely with their defense holding the Vikings to four points. The Hawks scored 14 in the quarter.
In the second period the Vikings were able to shake off West Deserts speed a little and performed better throwing in nine, but the Hawk offense still produced 13 points making the halftime score 27-13.
After the half East Carbon came out much stronger, but just couldn't keep up with the Hawks scoring as they fell behind by another eight points.
In the fourth period the Vikings finally were able to out do the kids from Trout Creek to the tune of 14-8, but it was too little too late.
"I was very disappointed in this game," said Gutierrez. "We couldn't hit a shot."
Tony McFarland led the Vikings with 10 points while Pat Hansen had nine in the game.
Two nights later the team went west again; this time to Eureka to play Tintic High. In this game the Vikings played well but some other factors affected the game with the Miners taking a 47-41 win.
"We played this one tough," said Gutierrez. "We were out rebounding them and playing well, but some things happened and we let it get out of control and they took over."
The game began slow as both teams struggled from the field. Tintic was able to out score the Vikings 9-5 in the first period.
The second period brought more scoring for both teams as the Miners put through 17 and the Vikes battled in 15 points.
After the half both teams struggled in the third period as the Vikings edged the Miners 12-11 in the quarter. It was a good trend for the East Carbon kids though and they went into the fourth period behind, but confident they could catch up.
The momentum they gained from the third period however did not carry through to the fourth as the Miners were able to hold on for the victory.
"We only had three people score in this game," stated Gutierrez. "We need some of the younger players to step up and score if we are going to win."
These were East Carbons first league games which made them 0-2 in Region 18. The teams next game will be against Dugway on Friday night at the Mustang's gym. Next week the Vikings are at home on Wednesday night against Meridian from Provo.

Dr. Abi-Hanna is an amazing doctor and person. He cares so much for his patients and spends good amount of time with my daughter (19-crohns disease) which may occasionally mean a wait. I dont mind becuase I know when I am waiting, we will have the same undivided attention. He remembers everything and has even called the day after an appt because he thought of something else that may help.... I mean, what doctor does that? Goes home and spends time worrying about a patient and thinking of alternatives? He is a rare breed, a man among men, a wonderful doctor and a fantastic human being. Your kid is safe in his hands, I guarantee it.

Bret Cammans, a Price City fire fighter, sprays water on a blaze in Carbonville on Friday afternoon.
A fire that appeared to have started about 1:30 p.m. brought the Price Fire Department to the scene to extinguish it before microburst winds could have made it worse on Friday afternoon.
The fire started near the Pilling Trailer Park in Carbonville and was reported by a resident who was working on his car near the back of the park. He said he heard something crackling and then saw the blaze just behind the fence of his home.
The fire fighters had to cut a lock on a gate to get to the area where the fire was raging, but as soon as they did they were able to cut it down to size. A brush truck was the first on the scene followed a few minutes later by a full size engine.
The cause of the fire was unknown, but some who were in the area reported seeing lightening strikes from some thunder bumpers in the area. However, it could have been caused by humans too.
The blaze did no discernible damage to structures and caused no injuries, but did threaten as it approached the fence because of the winds that were accompanying thunderstorms in the area.
Much of what was burning was green and so smoke filled the area, stretching across Carbonville Road where some cars stopped to look at the flames.

This is Karla. She is a student at a low income elementary school in Texas and a member of the after-school technology club, Tech-Click.
In 2009, Groundspeak was able to provide three GPS devices to Karla's club through DonorsChoose.org. DonorsChoose.org is an online charity that connects teachers with donors to fulfill classroom needs.
These three GPS devices allowed Karla and others in her club to learn about latitude, longitude, spatial concepts and more. Karla sent us this letter to thank us for the donation:
Now, you can help others like Karla learn about GPS technology simply by telling people about geocaching. From June 1- 30, 2011, for each new member that you refer to Geocaching.com, we'll donate $1 to DonorsChoose.org.
How it works:
The more people you refer, the more money we can donate to classrooms in need, up to a total of $10,000 USD!
Teach your friends about geocaching and help provide students like Karla with the tools they need to have engaging learning experiences.
We will be providing regular updates on the number of referrals here on Latitude 47 and on Facebook. Thank you for helping!
We also wish our brother was as nice as you.

I am doing a talk at our local library in June. I will be sure to participate.
How about introducing about 18 new people ?
I took my Beaver Scouts out geocaching 2 weeks ago, 15 kids and 5 parents that stayed, plus 3 other leaders – none of which were familiar with it before hand.
They had a great time – all groups found all 4 caches I'd set out for them.
hey found first cach! geocaching is the funest things ever. found out of the ball park put in dice took basketball pingpong ball.
Please can Groundspeak state if donations are requested from outside the US and if the beneficiaries are limited to the US and its territories. For the richest country in the world to seek charitable contributions from overseas would seem a clumsy parochial gaffe, to say the least. Please explain. Thanks.
We will be introducing over 150 kids to geocaching this summer at a cub scout day camp.
THIS is awesome a youthgroup is getting ready to go out and hopefully they will all desice join:)
It is July 1 and it doesn't seem as if the goal was met. Maybe Groundspeak could still donate the full $10k?? I'd love to see a follow-up to this story!
Do you collect geocoins and/or personal trade items?

Video: Billion to Buffalo Plan Stalled by Sandy
BUFFALO, NY - It's been almost one year since NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo made his highly heralded "Billion to Buffalo" pledge, announcing his commitment of one billion dollars in state incentives toward economic development efforts in Western New York.
Shortly thereafter, Cuomo appointed a Regional Economic Development Council to formulate a working plan to best utilize the incentives the state is poised to offer.
That council, working through Lt. Governor Bob Duffy, had hoped the governor himself would be reviewing the fruits of its labor by now.
However Duffy, during a visit to Buffalo on Monday, said the Governor has been too occupied with the aftermath of super storm Sandy and its devastating impact on the state to turn his full attention to the work of the council, so their unveiling of the first phase of what they have now dubbed "Buffalo Investment Development Plan."
"A lot of great work has been done on that...but in all honesty one of the biggest holdups for the state right now is all the tragedy in New York City and New Jersey with the storm. I think that has really pushed a lot back in terms of how we've done business," Duffy told WGRZ-TV.
"In a crisis like that everything else has to take a back seat," concurred Empire State Development Regional President Sam Hoyt, whose agency has also been working with the Regional Economic development Council on its plan.
While Hoyt insists, the effects of Sandy have not stopped the members of the council from continuing their work on formulating their plan to present to the governor; he declined to offer very many specifics as to what they have come up with.
"The plan is, I think, at the stage where it will be presented to him in the next few days... (but) let's let the governor take a look at it before I start revealing it to you," Hoyt told WGRZ's Dave McKinley.
Here's what we do know:
Through consultation with the Brookings Institute, the council has identified industry sectors with the highest potential growth in our region.
These would include, among others, health care and health sciences such as those involved at the Buffalo Niagara Medical campus.
Tourism is another sector in focus by the council, and the plan, according to sources , focuses on taking advantage of our Buffalo's border status for potential investment by Canadian firms.
Beyond that Hoyt and Duffy say, we'll just have to wait for specifics.
"The Governor will not unnecessarily delay things," said Duffy. He's back on track with the regional councils, he is visiting with one in Rochester tomorrow, and I believe Buffalo and Western New York will be next week, but the process is moving along very well and when things are ready it will be announced.
Duffy says the state faces tight fiscal times, but doesn't think Cuomo will have to back out of any commitments made to Western New York.
"He's made a commitment to the economic development efforts here through the regional councils, they will be maintained," Duffy said.

MASSENA - Village police charged Brandon R. Graves, 21, and Danielle S. Jensen, who turned 17 this week, both of 224 Harper Road, Lisbon, each with two counts of second-degree criminal possession of a weapon and one count of seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance Thursday night. Mr. Graves was additionally ticketed for operation of a vehicle with no plate lamp.
They were arraigned Friday morning by acting Massena Village Justice James M. Crandall and, after consultation with the St. Lawrence County District Attorneys office, were sent to the county jail, Canton, on $20,000 cash or $40,000 bond for Mr. Graves and $5,000 cash or $10,000 bond for Ms. Jensen.
Police said during the 11:26 p.m. Thursday traffic stop two loaded revolvers - a silver barrel, wooded handle Smith and Wesson .38 special and a black RG Industries .22 caliber - were found in the 2012 Ford Fusion being operated by Mr. Graves, with the serial number being obliterated on one of the weapons.
They said he was in possession of a small amount of Suboxone in his wallet, and Ms. Jensen possessed a cotton filter in her purse that tested positive for heroin. She was additionally charged with criminal possession of a hypodermic needle.
In a statement she signed for police, Ms. Jensen said she and Graves, her boyfriend, had come to Massena to meet with Gerry Dissotelle Jr. and other people inside an apartment near the Rusty Wheel on Willow Street.
Gerry asked Brandon for the keys to the car and when we went to leave. Brandon gave Gerry the keys to our car and Gerry placed his air mattress and some shirts in the trunk of the car. I asked Gerry what it was and Gerry would not tell me, she said.
Ms. Jensen said that, after they were pulled over on Woodlawn Avenue for no plate lamp, Mr. Graves consented to a search of the vehicle and police found a marijuana water pipe and guns, along with bullets in her purse.
When I was placed in the back of the police car, I
removed a needle from my pants and placed it down in the floor, she wrote in her statement.
Mr. Graves had been picked up on a warrant for second-degree burglary last month following a traffic stop in the village. They also charged him with possession of a hypodermic needle. The felony burglary count alleges that he entered Jacob J. Mitchells residence, 41 Belmont St., on Sept. 4, 2012, and got into a fight with him and tried to steal Mr. Mitchells personal property.
In a statement he signed for police, Mr. Mitchell said Mr. Graves walked through his front door and while in his house asked him if wanted to buy some drugs from him. Mr. Mitchell said he told him no numerous times, Mr. Graves got angry, and a fight ensued.
On his way out, Mr. Mitchell told police, Mr. Graves attempted to steal an XBox video game system and a cell phone.

Friday, July 10, 2009Former Lipscomb pitching standout Rex Brothers was on the road to Pasco, Wash., Friday where he will take the first steps of his professional career as a member of the Tri-City Dust Devils.
The Dust Devils, a Class A affiliate of the Colorado Rockies, play in the Northwest League. The team is owned by George Brett, a Hall of Fame baseball player with the Kansas City Royals.
Brothers, selected 34th overall in the June Major League First Year Player Draft, signed with the Rockies earlier this week. He received a $969,000 signing bonus. His deal also includes provisions to pay for the remainder of his school expenses. Brothers, a resident of Chapel Hill, Tenn., left Lipscomb after his junior year.
Tuesday he flew to Denver where he underwent a battery of physical examinations, including an MRI on his left shoulder on Wednesday.
He watched the Rockies play the Washington Nationals Wednesday night. He was also in the stands Thursday night when the Rockies played the Atlanta Braves.

The Fight Club
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Mon, 12/18/06, 03:27pm:
Watching the fallout from the Denver-Knicks melee Saturday night at MSG, you can't help but wonder how the Clippers would've reacted if it were Corey Maggette who was clotheslined by Mardy Collins? After Maggette rose to confront Collins with a few words and Nate Robinson began to bite at Corey's ankles, would Elton Brand have entered the scrum to back Corey up? Who'd come off the bench to deal with Jared Jeffries?
There's nothing admirable about senseless bravado, in trying to front as a Bad Boys squad, particularly when you can't defend the paint with an Armet Gurkha. Carmelo Anthony is, incontrovertibly, a colossal fuckwit - as if we needed confirmation, given his last couple of ejections on the Clippers' home floor. What kind of superstar endangers his contending team's season for a sucker punch on...on...Mardy Collins? Hell, Anthony's shot was the first Collins has blocked all year. Robinson is a miniature poodle on an endless IV of Desoxyn and MD20/20. And Isiah is a flailing, desperate hack whose only legacy is folly.
But the incident had me thinking in a general sense --- how much fight do these Clippers have in them? For all the talk about not wanting to disrupt the Clippers' chemistry, how cohesive is this team? Would the 2006-2007 Clippers stand in the line of fire for one another? Are they furious enough to assert themselves when provoked by a challenge?
Take pride that the Clippers have more sense than to engage in wrongheaded fights like Saturday night's fracas in New York. But take solace in the fact that they don't have the passion to fight the good ones.

Diagnose and Treat Your Cat's HalitosisFriday, May 1st, 2009
Halitosis coming from your cat's mouth can be unpleasant for multiple reasons. Not only is the smell unwelcoming, but it can also signify various diseases. Cat owners can buy many different products, like cat toothbrushes, toothpastes, treats and drops that help with cat breath, tartar, and other cat dental issues.
There are many underlying diseases that could be causing the smelly odor from your cat's mouth:
- Gingivitis, inflammation of the gums
- Abscessed tooth/teeth
- Bone/hairball stuck in mouth
- Oral ulceration
- Foreign bodies in mouth, (i.e. grass awns, plant material)
- Tumors in mouth (oral neoplasia)
- Lung diseases (i.e. cancer)
- Kidney disease
- Periodontal disease, inflammation of the tissue that surrounds the teeth
Warning signs to Look Out For:
- Oral pain/discharge (especially if there is blood)
- Drooling
- Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia)
- Difficulty eating
- Depression
Treating Your Cat:
If you feel your cat has any of these problems, the best bet is to take it to a vet for a professional opinion. Veterinary care may involve various diagnostic tests to reveal the cause of the bad breath, which include:
- Thorough medical history and physical examination
- Complete oral exam (may require brief anesthetic)
- Full-mouth X-rays with dental machine
- Periodontal probing to identify possible periodontal diseases
Home Treatment:
Home treatments are dependent on what specific problem the cat has. Here are some prevention mechanisms you can take to help your cat's foul-smelling breath:
- Daily cat teeth brushing (look for special brushes/pastes available from a vet)
- Spraying .12% chlorhexidine (prescribed from a vet) into your cat's mouth once daily for one to two weeks.
- Follow special dietary considerations. Get input from your vet on what works the best for your cat.
- Diagnosis by a vet if the halitosis persists.

POTSDAM Soon music lovers will be able to enjoy concerts at SUNY Potsdams Crane School of Music without leaving the comfort of their homes.
The school recently finished installing the equipment it needs to stream live video of concerts online.
Michael R. Sitton, dean of the Music Department at Crane, said the streaming serves several purposes. It will let distant family and friends watch students perform, allow alumni to keep up with concerts at their alma mater and show potential students what they are in for if they choose Crane.
We havent even begun to discover all of the potential, Mr. Sitton said.
Gail H. Stradling, who graduated from SUNY Potsdam in 1964, and Richard F. Stradling Jr., a graduate of St. Lawrence University, Canton, donated the money needed to purchase the equipment.
The Stradlings live in Cincinnati, Ohio. During a visit to Potsdam in December, school officials told the couple of their desire to stream concerts live and online.
It was fun to see the donors get more and more excited about the impact that their donation is going to have, said Jason N. Ladouceur, director of planned giving at the college.
The school would not disclose the size of the donation, although Mr. Ladouceur confirmed it is over six figures.
In addition to the up-front costs needed to set everything up, the donation will be used to create an endowment to keep the equipment up to date, replacing it as often as every five years.
We know that anything technological that you buy, there will be new generations of equipment, Mr. Sitton said.
Four cameras each have been installed in Hosmer Concert Hall and Snell Theater. Each set of cameras can be manned by one person, stationed at a backstage control panel. The video and audio will be streamed online instantly, as well as recorded.
Crane has long broadcast audio-only concerts online, but this is the first time the school has been capable of streaming video.
In addition to the recording and streaming equipment, the school bought monitors that have been installed in the lobbies of the theaters, which also will broadcast performances.
Almost all major student and faculty concerts will be available live and for free at the Crane School of Music website. Visiting performers will be able to choose whether they will allow their concerts to be streamed.
The equipment was purchased from Audio Video Corp., Syracuse.
Students will be taught to man the cameras and streaming equipment, learning hands-on production skills, said Joshua P. Emanuel, visiting instructor and music technology coordinator.
It also is hoped that the streaming technology can be used to create off-campus educational opportunities.
There is a lot of educational potential being able to broadcast a master class, for example, Mr. Emanuel said.
The school has yet to announce which of this semesters concerts will be the first available to watch online. Once the system is up and running, the video feeds will be accessible at www.potsdam.edu/academics/crane.
