Zaha Hadid speeds ahead with Naples station proposal
Zaha Hadid Architects has unveiled the first images of its proposals for the new Napoli-Afragola High Speed Train Station.
The project's brief - drawn up by the city council - demands that the new station should provide a 'well-organised interchange, a focal point for a new business park and a new gateway to the city of Naples'.
Hadid's designs aim to enlarge the overhead concourse - already necessary for access to the platforms - to such an extent that it can become 'the main passenger station itself '.
The enlarged concourse will allow the areas beside the tracks to be landscaped into communal parkland.

What do you do on your binge day? Just eat what you like? I'm a snacker and we eat out alot. x
Pretty much eat what I like yeah. I've been super bad on some binges! I still add the calories up. Hit 4000 calories before but ill be honest, Having a one off binge hasn't stopped my loses. I'm not saying everyone should do it but the way I see it, if I have 18 binges a year. It's only an extra (at a guess) 2/3 weeks added on to my target date. I've been fat for years. An extra 2/3 weeks won't hurt me. I think as long as you can write a day off a start again. You'll reach target one day. X
Currently 14st 12lbs
Yeah, I've been big since age 15. Smallest I've been is 13st and i just went back up from then, then down to 14 and back up to near 16 (now)... Slow and steady works for me and i just want to feel well again. heh
I have always allowed myself Binge days - or treat days. on every diet Ive been on, i think its important to give yourself a break every now and again.
Sometimes ive eaten some thing i usually love and gone urgghh - why did i eat that. its not even that nice lol x
Thats true! I used to love dorito crisps and now I don't really care for them, it could be they're ideal to eat out of boredom (like chip after chip after chip goes into the mouth).
I woke pretty depressed today, but did something constructive by listing things on eBay so feel somewhat better, had a panic attack or two as well... :/ got about 700cals for dinner. I haven't left the flat since Tuesday night, Wednesday night we went brum to take my guinea pig to the specialist but it's not the same thing as going for a walk or going to town... Plus I haven't seen my boyfriend since Wednesday evening also as he's been busy and is out tonight and I have like withdrawal symptoms lol.
Have you ever thought off audio Books on a mp3 player, ive listened to all 3 series of the hunger games, The twilight saga and harry potter 1+2. i just pop in my head phones put on my trainers and get myself out for a walk. You seem to forget anyone else is around, how long you've been walking, and just get lost in the story. (haven't done it of late, weathers been to bad) but before i know it im home and feel refreshed and happy from my walk. xx Hope You feeling better tomorrow xx
I have audiobooks yeah, never thought of doing that though. I listened to the firsst Hunger Games, then read the other 2, I've got a couple of different ones atm, I'll look into doing that after the weekend I just cleared out my wardrobe and listed them on Ebay... could do with doing some ironing before bed and perhaps 10-20 minute on the exercise bike... I'll syringe feed Cally first. x
There awesome arnt they - huge fan of the hunger games, Loved the film too,catching fires out this year to so really looking forward to that,l i would give the walking thing a try anyway , You never know you might really enjoy it. - Im Just relaxing for the rest of the night now got a dvd to watch Then of to bed,
Enjoy the rest of your night xx
Welcome to the forum, I commented on your post on my diary, about the fasting. I think its great that finally people are waking up to the fact that we dont need food constantly, as hunters we would eat once every few days and still survived. The whole starvation mode thing is a myth I think. As long as you take it easy when going back to normal food you'll be fine, as long as you dont get carried away and keep it calorie controlled then I cant see why you'd even have a gain to be honest. Its not as horrific as people think. My doctor told me to go on a 1000 cal a day diet, and I got lots of abuse for it at the time, but it worked & maintained for a good while. I felt great eating that many cals, i never ate a breakfast.
Good luck, cant wait to hear how you get on
So my 3 shifts are over, I'm going to try that walking with a audiobook tomorrow
Aww thats fantastic PandaNate - Let me know how you get on With it - And i think Weather permitting - Im going to do exactly the same as you lol,
Go for a nice long walk xxxxxxxx
I forgot about the weather, 3c here with according to my weather system on tablet, rain and 50km winds lol

Dead and wounded
The Youngstown Police Department has released this list of the dead and injured from Sunday's shootings in a house on Indiana Avenue near the campus of Youngstown State University.

Jamail Johnson, 25, 55 Indiana Ave., Youngstown, died from gunshot wound.
Durrell Richardson, 31, 410 Elruth Court, Girard, shot in left thigh.
Shavai Owens, 17, Youngstown, shot in right ear, critical condition late Sunday afternoon.

Sean Griffin, 20, Youngstown, shot in the foot.
Ebony Michel, 20, Youngstown, shot in the foot.
Jordon Wagner, 20, Youngstown, shot in the shoulder and foot.
Tejohn Lawrence, 19, Youngstown, shot in the foot.
Jamie Ruffin, 20, Youngstown, shot in the pelvis.
D'Anthony Brown, 17, Youngstown, shot in the foot.
Lisetle Encarnacion, 19, Youngstown, shot in the buttocks.
Selina Howard, 17, Youngstown, abrasion wound to the wrist.
By Ed Runyan | firstname.lastname@example.com
Police say they only know that a "disagreement" caused two Youngstown men in their early 20s to return a second time to a fraternity member's house near Youngstown State University and open fire on about 50 people early Sunday.
The shots from two guns killed one man, Jamail Johnson, 25, critically injured a 17-year-old girl and caused lesser injuries to 10 others. The shootings occurred at about 3:40 a.m.
The Violent Crimes Task Force arrested Braylon L. Rogers, 19, of 174 East Lucius Avenue at the corner of Hudson and Parkcliffe avenues on the Southside at 4 p.m.
They arrested Columbus E. Jones Jr., 22, of 529 Cambridge Avenue at 4:50 p.m., police said.
Mahoning County Common Pleas Court records say Jones was convicted in February 2008 of burglary and sentenced to three years in prison. He was released from prison on judicial release in April 2009.
Half of the shooting victims are YSU students. Johnson was a senior at YSU. Neither of the shooters are YSU students, police said.
At a press conference Sunday afternoon, Youngstown 1st Ward Councilwoman Annie Gillam said it's hard to make sense of the tragedy, which occurred in her ward of the city.
"It's a sad day. We need to find a way to make our young people value life — their own and other people's lives and how to deal with conflict," she said.
Johnson, 25, of Youngstown, the man killed, apparently tried to make one of the suspects leave the house where some Omega Psi Phi members lived, police said.
Police Chief Jimmy Hughes said Johnson had escorted one of them out of the house himself. The second man left on his own.
But the two men returned a short time later and "shot through the open doorway" into the house on Indiana Avenue, police said.
The house is couple blocks north of the university.
Shavai Owens, 17, of Youngstown, was shot in the head and remained in critical condition at St. Elizabeth Health Center Sunday night, police said at a press conference. She was shot in the ear.
Many of the other victims were hit in their feet and other limbs were much less seriously hurt. Most of them had been released from the hospital by Sunday night.
One of the victims is from Girard. The 11 others are from Youngstown.
The two suspects are in the Mahoning Count jail, charged with aggravated murder, firing into a habitation and 11 counts of felonious assault.
One of the men turned himself in at the Youngstown Police Department Sunday afternoon and the other was picked up at his home on Youngstown's South Side at just before 5 p.m.
Police said the shooters came to an "after hours" party at the fraternity. Those in attendance only showed up there at around 2 a.m., some of them coming from other parties. It's possible that a dispute may have arisen at another party earlier in the night and spilled over to the fraternity, police said.
Hughes and Capt. Rod Foley said it is still not known whether gunfire that occurred at the Love Lounge on West Federal Street at about 1:30 a.m. Sunday or a fight at the Choices Lounge at the MetroPlex in Liberty are related to the fraternity shooting. No injuries resulted from the gunfire at the Love Lounge.
Hughes said some of the people at the fraternity house at the time of the shooting had been to parties at "three to four locations" in the area Sunday.
Foley said the party at the house seems to have developed through text-messaging and using Facebook to learn that a gathering was taking place after the bars had closed.
The house doesn't have a history of trouble or loud parties, Hughes said.
YSU President Cynthia E. Anderson asked for the community's support and prayers at an early-afternoon press conference Sunday.
"This is one of the days that university presidents across the country dread," she said at Tod Hall.
Anderson stressed that the shooting didn't occur on campus and there was no threat to the campus.
Counselors and clergy were to be available to students Sunday and in the coming days.
Ron Cole, a YSU spokesman, said the Indiana Avenue house where the shootings occurred is home to members of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity although it's not a fraternity house.
The YSU chapter is called the Zeta Gamma Chapter.
"It was founded at YSU in the early to mid-1960s," Cole said. "It was unaffiliated at some point and reformed two or three years ago."
The YSU-sanctioned fraternity was in good standing with the university, Cole said.
"Gov. [John] Kasich called my office a little bit ago to express his condolences, his support and assistance to YSU and to the Mahoning Valley community," Anderson said.
Students, faculty and staff were notified of the shooting using YSU Alert, an emergency notification system.
Cole said that immediately following the shootings, campus police were stationed outside of student residence halls, monitoring students' comings and goings.
Because of the time that the shooting occurred, "most, if not all, of the students were in their halls at the time," he said.
Classes are to resume as scheduled today, Cole said.
Blood trails in the snow in front of the house and a YSU police car out front were the only outward indications of a problem that remained Sunday afternoon. There was one empty beer can in a side yard, but little else to suggest a party had taken place.
Beer bottles and cups overflowed trash bags at a sorority house next door, however. No one answered the door at the sorority house.
A block west of the brick two-story house, Rosa Figueroa of Park Avenue said she has never thought that the fraternity house was especially noisy.
"I've been here 20 years, and they're very quiet. They don't bother. If they were rowdy, we'd be complaining. They're very laid back," she said.
A neighbor a couple houses closer who didn't want to give her name said the house where the shootings took place has been the location of parties about two times the last couple months.
Youngstown Mayor Jay Williams said at a Sunday afternoon press conference that there is no way to "put a positive picture" on the incident but said the campus has been rated as among the safest in the state.
"It overshadows the progress we've made," Williams said of trying to reduce violence in the city as a whole.
What records show that conviction? Its not shown at Mahoning County Public access.
Rest in peace Jamail. Put your guns down Boys. Enjoy your life, while you have it.
Just more of the same criminal gun and drug activities in the urban jungle of Youngstown only this time it involved YSU students! Mayor Jay has been a total failure in stopping this kind of activity from happening in the city.
why is it that bars are always connected to crime ? especially bars on a college campus which should be outlawed ! in Kent Ohio not only do they drink there ,but smoke their pot there too ! and this is old , old , and old news. it's be going on since the Vietnam military action ! and still isn't fixed . just our political science majors or politician have other concerns and it's not education or safety !!!
Complete speculation, but according to the news there was a fraternity event at the Metroplex earlier that evening. I know traditionally fraternities hire security or police when they have parties. My thought is this wasn't a planned event, but more of an "after party" from the earlier event.
Either way, it's a horrible tragedy and our heart and prayers go out to those involved.
P.S. to Loaf...not sure if you are expecting Dr. Anderson to periodically check in at frat parties during the middle of the night for minors who should be in the care of their parents or not....
UnionForever.....this unnecessary act of violence has nothing to do with the Mayor stopping it from happening. Crime rates in Youngstown are way down from the 90s when Ungaro was in office. Why is it all of a sudden now the Mayor's responsibility to stop violence? He can't babysit the whole city.
This is what happens when animals breed animals. Situations like this will never change so long as the family structure continues to be destroyed.
Jones -- sent to prison for 3 years in Feb. of 2008---gets a judicial release in April of 2009. There you have it. The justice system at work. Was he a model prisoner? I doubt it. Now Jones and the other scum-bag will most likely be on death row. We should all pray for the families of those affected by this tragedy.
Sorry, mrblue, we don't have a JUSTICE system; we have a LEGAL system. All we have to do is read about all the plea bargaining and the creeps being released early. The lawyers don't care and obviously, some of the judges don't care either. Sad commentary here!
The Jambar has done a great job reporting this story from the beginning...
WTF are people thinking? Like you can go and shoot at innocent people and you won't get caught? What a bunch of F"N morons...I hope they rot.
Such a horrible event--so sorry for all of those grieving and suffering. I have so many questions--what were these thugs even doing at a fraternity party? Frightening to realize that a 17 year old college student could be partying at that hour. And what in the world made these men think that they could do such a thing and suffer no consequences? I know it is an old fashioned idea, but there is true evil existing in Youngstown.
There is no point blaming the justice system--our prisons are so overcrowded that prosecutors and judges have to take that into consideration--sad but true. And we taxpayers do not want to pay any more money to expand the prison system--and prisoners can sue if conditions are too bad.
The freedom of expression has many forms . The shooters were simply expressing their contempt for being evicted from the party . In the hood this is called being cool . You can be shure that they have no remorse for their actions .
Will they may have been "simply expressing their contempt for being evicted," I hope they are equalling willing to accept full responsibility and consequences for their self-expression. All choices have consequences.
"Why is it all of a sudden now the Mayor's responsibility to stop violence? He can't babysit the whole city."
No, he can't babysit the whole city, but he can get tough with the animals and get back the streets to the INNOCENT victims of this nonsense. He is to be held accountable for the actions of the city. He needs to have 0 (zero) tolerance for this. That is why he is the mayor. Zero tolerance, bottom line.
"Hey ''Vindy''---was it necessary to show the blood in the street? Lets have some compassion for the suffering families."
Why not show the blood. Why try to sugar coat the violence these animals bring on. This isn't a memorial or compassion article. This is the cold heart facts of real life. If one animal has compassion to see blood of a INNOCENT person, and maybe next time think twice about shooting or killing someone, then it's worth it. This is REAL life, REAL blood, the REAL world, why try to hide it?
It's nothing but pure animals intent on killing INNOCENT people.
What amazes me is that the shooters were identified considering the old "no snitch" mentality. Maybe some newbees didn't get the memo!
These comments really disgusted me. Open your eyes everyone, crime happens all over the world not just in Youngstown. Youngstown has come a long way from what it has been 10 years ago and I am very proud to see that. All of your negative thoughts on the city are overshadowing what truly happened. There is a man dead and 11 that were shot. I had the honor of knowing Jamail personally, and to say he was a good person is an understatement. Bad things always happen to good people. So Youngstown, how about this time we come together as a city and pray for those injured and their families and friends instead of bashing our city to the ground like always. IF YOU DONT LIKE YOUNGSTOWN THEN GET OUT AND PLEASE STOP BASHING THOSE WHO ARE TRYING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND THE CITY A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE.
Just saw your terrific city on Fox News. Glad we left when we did. A once beatiful neighborhood taken over by thugs, A university which needs good publicity to draw students from outside this ghetto city gets this kind of publicity. Good luck to anyone who sticks around for this.
Certainly the life threatening shot to the 17 year old is tragic, but what in the world is a 17 year old Boardman student doing there? Where was the guardian if the student was really living in Boardman that has a curfew for young people?
The 17-yr-old does not live in Boardman (she is listed as a Youngstown resident) but she attends Boardman High School. Apparently Boardman is open-enrollment.
Regardless, what in the **** kind of parent doesn't know where your 17-yr-old daughter is at 3:30 am??? Seriously, the problem with this society and culture is the lack of family support and values. Parents who can't take the responsibility to care for their teen can't be expected to raise a responsible adult. The vicious cycle continues.... Sad.
"Just saw your terrific city on Fox News."
And your neck of the woods is just paradise, huh? No problems where you reside, huh? Picture perfect world, huh? Dream on, bub.
Bubba, it's everywhere, not just a little grain of sand in this world called Youngstown.
Boardman does not have open enrollment as far as I know but loves to have good athletes. If the person did not live in Boardman but went to school there someone should have looked in to it.
I grew up in Youngstown and I liked it a lot better when YSU was known for it's championship football teams. What scares me is that shootings at colleges seem to be annual events now. Last year in Huntsville there was a professor that shot one of her colleagues at a meeting.
One more thing. What were 17-year-olds doing at a frat party?
From the Jambar
Shavai Owens, who was listed in critical condition after the Sunday shootings in Youngstown, was reported to be conscious Monday morning.
"The good news is [that her guardian] said Shavai is doing well. She is in the critical unit at Northside [Hospital], but she was doing well and was conscious," said Boardman High School principal Timothy Saxton.
The 17-year-old Boardman High School senior was shot in her right ear at an off-campus party early Sunday morning.
Saxton said Owens' guardian told him that her condition is progressing.
"I'm going to send an e-mail out to the staff just to give them a heads up to prepare for any student that needs to be sent down to guidance," he said.
Owens was one of 12 shot in the incident, which claimed the life of Youngstown State University senior Jamail Johnson.
"She is someone you could talk to for five minutes and know she'd have your back if you ever needed her," said Boardman High School junior Lisa Navarro.
I hope they take a zero tolerance stand on this issue (and all similar issues).
Prayers to the victims and their families.

Nice rooms, friendly staff great roof bar and lovely food!
Loved the rooftop restaurant and the easy access to the gym/spa next door
We spent four nights at the Varsity to relax, workout, and visit Cambridge.
The people and the service were consistently great. Everyone was willing to help make our stay as welcoming and comfortable as possible. The rooms were nicely furnished, the beds were very comfortable, the bathrooms were well appointed (modern fixtures, great water pressure, etc.). The spa was next door with unlimited in out privelages included in the room rate. The excercise classes were free to guests, and all three I participated in were excellent. The proximity to the colleges, restaurants, and the sights was perfect.

I thought the room was overpriced, for that amount I would have expected a river view.
The bathroom was lovely though as was the roof terrace. My main issue was the noise. The hotel had kindly agreed to give us a later checkout but it was a bit pointless as we were woken up by various delivery drivers, bin men and the construction site opposite. I would stay again but in a different room if the cost were slightly less.

Good but not fantastic
The room was ok, the view was of the side alleyway where the bins were stored, ADD 20 per night onto the cost of the room for car parking....
As there isn't any, valet parking only!!. Roof terrace great but very expensive £18 for 3 cokes and a cider. Staff friendy but all congregated in a small reception which was a bit intimidating at first.

Great location, great hotel
My teenage daughter and I stayed here to visit the university.
The staff were charming and efficient, the room was great with a very comfortable bed, top quality bed linen (I am quite picky about that!), all the expected facilities of a luxury hotel and a great rooftop view. We used their valet car parking service which at £20 was very convenient, just drive up to the front door and give them your keys. The hotel is smack in the middle of Cambridge so once there one does not need a car.
We ate in the hotel restaurant, which was buzzy and served great steaks.

Getting ready for my move and I'll be hauling my wife's car out to CO while she flies ahead. I'm familiar with Pace American, but there's a couple of dealers around here with "Haulmax" and/or "American Hauler" trailers. I've never heard of these brands, but on paper, the specs look pretty close to the Pace trailers.
Since we seem to have a diverse collection of experience here, I figured I'd toss it out and see if anyone knows. Thanks!

Oil and gas health-study bill receives House approval

Wealth Transfers: You Shouldn't Take the Emotion Out of Your Decisions
The bill goes to the Senate, where it will be assigned to a committee.
House Bill 1297, sponsored by Rep. Joann Ginal, D-Fort Collins, and Sen. Irene Aguilar, D-Denver, would examine data from Larimer, Weld, Boulder, Broomfield, Arapahoe and Adams counties. A similar measure last year was defeated. The study will cost almost $690,000, according to the bill's fiscal note.
"I have heard from people across Colorado who are concerned about the potential effects that increased exploration and associated impacts may have on their families' health," Ginal said in a statement. "This analysis will help our state be better informed and make educated decisions as we move forward."
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment would conduct the study, which would consist of mailed and online health surveys of people living in areas where oil is produced as well as a review of other health studies related to oil and gas.
The study will include a "scientific advisory committee" of nine voting members, together with the chief medical officer for the state health department, who will appoint the other members. The members cannot be lawmakers, and they should be from counties where the study will take place.
The committee will include 10 other nonvoting members, including representatives from the oil and gas industry and environmental community, statistician, economist and two doctors. Other members who must have expertise and a master's or doctoral degree in public and environmental health, epidemiology, toxicology, behavioral and social science. The oil and gas industry representatives cannot work for an oil and gas operator.
The committee's meetings will be open to the public. Due Jan. 1, 2017, the final report would be submitted for publication in a scientific journal.

For the past seven years, there's been a darkness on the edge of Azeroth. The Burning Crusade brought a host of demonic forces. Wrath of the Lich King saw an invasion of the dead. Cataclysm destroyed the very world itself, a manifestation of evil that cracked earth and boiled seas with a flick of its maleficent wings.
What next? What hideous mindrending monstrosity, dredged up from the abyss of the human psyche, could follow a villain as truly malevolent as Deathwing? Now we know. Pandas.
WoW's next expansion centres around these small and furry creatures. Animals so evolutionarily backwards that they use their ursine teeth to rend and tear only bamboo. So dopey that they have to be shown panda porn to be coaxed into having sex to ensure the survival of their race.
A creature so fragile that a group of them, after an earthquake in their central China habitat, had to literally be cuddled back to psychiatric health. Yet, this is genius. Deathwing rent World of Warcraft in two, demolishing subscriber numbers along the way; Mists of Pandaria could save it.
This year saw two defining events in World of Warcraft's history. For the first time in the game's seven-year lifespan, Blizzard saw a decline in WoW subscriptions. But as interest finally started to wane in the west, the game expanded into the vast Chinese market.
Try to ignore the mental image of frolicking pandas for a second – it's time for some cynicism. The new expansion is heavily influenced by Chinese culture. Pandaria itself is a green land, spotted with pagoda temples and rice paddies, and the new playable race who dominate the world are walking, talking versions of the country's cutest export. Was the choice to add the new continent of Pandaria and its fluffy inhabitants a deliberate paean to the MMO's new frontier? A love letter to China?
"We had a poll not too long ago. We asked: 'What is the number one feature you'd like to see in World of Warcraft?' The top response was 'Pandarens'. The poll wasn't even 'what race', it was 'what anything do you want to see?'" Greg Street is Mists of Pandaria's lead systems designer, and he sees the confluence of the new expansion's setting and WoW's new colonisation as a happy accident. He argues that, with Pandarens established in the game's fiction already, it made sense to dress their homeland up like their natural habitat.
The result is Pandaria. Obscured by mists from the the rest of Azeroth for generations, the Pandarens have been left to grow fat and fluffy as the Horde and Alliance endlessly smacked each other around. They discovered the continent as a matter of chance, after being shipwrecked on the mysterious coastline after a naval battle. Pandaria is a peaceful place, with its native pandas preferring to use their kung fu to focus their minds rather than beating the frayed cloth armour out of their neighbours.
That is, until you turn up. Blizzard consider Mists of Pandaria as an escalation in the conflict between Alliance and Horde, an unplundered place full of resources and new space to be squabbled and scrapped over. "When players get to Pandaria, there won't be very strong Horde or Alliance influence in the continent. They'll see a few Night Elves, Tauren, and of course a lot of Pandarens, but the former won't have big established bases. But over time – say, with our first major content patch – both sides will have established a bulwark. And then maybe in the second patch, we'll have a big open battleground where the Pandarens are caught in the middle between Horde and Alliance."
Pandarens are neutral by nature, preferring to spend their time brewing beer and fronting international wildlife conservation campaigns. Reflecting that, players who roll a new Pandaren character start off as a third faction. They'll find themselves at a fluffy crossroads at level 10, where they must choose between throwing their chips in the bamboo basket of either Horde or Alliance.
That makes the Pandarens World of Warcraft's first playable neutral race. There was talk pre-Cataclysm of goblins taking that title, before they became Horde-only. I asked Greg if they'd switch them to the same set-up, and why the Pandarens were able to stay out of the top level fight for ten levels. "It's an interesting idea, but probably not; we've established the goblins in the Horde."
"If we made the Pandaren Horde only, in keeping with the history of Warcraft 3, boy would the Alliance players be unhappy! They're such a core part of the game we felt that the right answer would be to give them to everyone." For the first ten levels, all those who do pretend to be a panda will start out in the same area.
Pandaria is split into five zones, given names out of earnest martial arts films. You'll be galumphing through the Jade Forest, the Kun-Lai Summit, and the Valley of the Four Winds during your time in Pandaria. That Blizzard didn't take the opportunity to include a 'fur winds' pun hints at a pervasive reverence for their too-cute subject matter.
The expansion's Pandarens aren't imbued with the knockabout silliness you'd expect from a kung fu panda. Instead, they're a measured, insightful race, and Blizzard avoids playing the furballs for laughs so as not to piss off the very country they're trying to court: China has rigid guidelines on how their fluffy treasures can be represented. It creates a slightly jarring effect that leaves Pandaria feeling more sober than you might expect. Even if a gigantic brewery acts as one of the continent's major dungeons.
But what Pandaria loses in potential laughs, it gains in majesty. That the developers have managed to coax the expansion's mixture of rich autumn colours and grand, impressionist landscapes from a seven-year-old engine is mightily impressive.
The continent uses space effectively: Horde and Alliance characters who pop over on either boats or zeppelins will find themselves dropped at opposite ends of the same sector. Being able to see your mortal enemies on the other side of a treeline will, Blizzard hope, spark the kind of animosity that future patches will escalate. But the most creative new landmass isn't in Pandaria itself – it's the new Pandaren starting zone.
Read part two of our Mists of Pandaria preview for Kung Fu fighting and the difficulty curve.
I started my huggable journey on the back of a giant turtle. The Wandering Isle is a set of villages, hills, and lakes situated on the back of a gently floating reptile. It's home to all fresh Pandarens, curious enough about the outside world to hitch a lift on the panda version of public transport. I'd chosen to make my man-panda a monk. Monks are Mists of Pandaria's new class choice – the only one in the expansion – and they chime well with the race's eastern aesthetics.
Monks balance three resources. Chi acts as mana, and lets me deliver my panda's punchy powers. Complete certain moves, and I was awarded with pips of light and dark energy, the fuel for different types of attacks. It leads to a nice rhythmic combat style: I'd jab an enemy a few times, exhausting my chi but filling my boots with light energy, then let fly with a tougher, energy-using thwack. That rhythm is compounded by the lack of an auto-attack: every time you dive your panda into a dust-up, you'll need to be tapping the keys lest your opponent turn your black eyes blacker.
Blizzard namechecked Street Fighter as an influence in the monk's fighting style, but where the difference between a Zangief and a Chun-Li is obvious in that game, it's harder to see where the Monk slots into the pantheon of WoW classes. BlizzCon gives the title's most obsessive fans licence to ask detailed questions of the game's developers, and a good percentage of those directed at this year's panel were attempts to clarify exactly what the Monk does.
Blizzard suggested that the Monk was a melee scrapper, but could be press-ganged into bot-absorbing damage (tanking) and fixing fluffy boo-boos (healing) while still laying down the hurt. But the class's stats (not more bloody spellpower leather) were of particular concern to fans – with certain core attributes becoming useless in the proposed character sheet – leading the devs to state that the class was still at an early stage and was subject to alteration. Auto-attack, in particular, seemed a fractious issue internally. Don't be surprised if the next time you see these pandas, they'll be punching without provocation.
The introduction of a brand new slab of earth is Blizzard's tried-and-tested approach to WoW expansion packs. Both the Burning Crusade and the Wrath of the Lich King made Azeroth a bigger place. But Cataclysm deliberately avoided piling new regions on top of an already-huge world, choosing to remould and reshape existing bits instead. Is falling back on pure expansion an admission of Cataclysm's mistakes?
Greg's answer is measured. "By splitting Cataclysm up as we did, we were able to get really diverse environments. But at the same time, it felt less like a massively multiplayer world and more like an instanced game." In Greg's eyes, the slide towards a more compartmentalised world that players could hop across in moments had a negative influence.
"Travel and adventure is part of the whole RPG experience. We shouldn't just have players teleporting around. We want to keep the ability to queue and put players together but we want to get players out in the world, to get more of a sense of travel." With that in mind, Mists of Pandaria will remove player access to flying mounts before the new level cap maximum of 90.
Pandaria will emerge with a raft of other refinements. Key among these is the modulation of difficulty. Players of both factions argued that Cataclysm pushed the difficulty level a step beyond acceptable, forcing players to know and execute their role perfectly on the battlefield, or face ostracism by their peers.
"In Wrath of the Lich King we heard from our players that the PvE content was too easy. Clearly we needed to make it harder, which we did for Cataclysm. Then players told us it was too hard! We realised we have a really diverse audience and the right answer is to offer various difficulty levels," says Greg. Players who bundle toward the hardest stuff will get the best rewards, but it's Greg's aim that less committed public groups can swoosh through a dungeon post-Pandaria without facing such an onslaught.
Is making an MMO easier simply a case of snipping away at enemy healthbars? "It often helps. If the numbers are low enough, it allows players to ignore complex mechanics. But we have other ways. On a harder boss, we might say 'if you stand in the fire you will die'. On easier levels we might make it so you can stand in there for a while, and with enough healing you can ignore it completely."
It's a policy that aims to include everyone, with a specific eye to retaining players. "We don't like this idea that you go in, the dungeon's too hard and then you log off. It's not a great way to keep players playing the game."
The expansion's major changes lean towards retention and viability, making more choices acceptable in an online society that's figured out the 'right' way of doing skills. The game's talent system will receive an overhaul alongside Pandaria's opening, allowing greater variation in talent choices.
Blizzard want players to be free to flit around the talent tree, letting their Holy Paladin feel and play differently to their friend's. In the WoW we know now, player talents are prescribed by internet elites – anyone who doesn't choose properly risks being picked last for raid class.
But outside these changes, the new expansion doesn't have the firefighting feel of previous examples. Playing in Pandaria feels like a deep breath for WoW, a decision to patch the holes in the boat before setting forth for strange shores. Greg talks about Cataclysm cagily, picking out mis-steps in the remoulding of the world.
"I don't know where we're going to go after Mists of Pandaria but I'd say that we're more likely to do a new continent again than we are to spread apart zones like in Cataclysm." The new world, he seems to suggest, holds more promise than the old.

NEW RICHMOND, Ohio -- Cold weather has once again caused major problems for residents in the Tri-State area.
The Village of New Richmond in Clermont County shut down their water system in the core area of the village at 9 a.m. to repair a damaged water main.
The area without water is located between US 52 and the Ohio River. When repairs are completed, a boil advisory will be issued for residents. Anyone with questions is asked to call (513) 553-4146.
According to the Owen County Kentucky Facebook page, residents in town have been without water for more than 24 hours after a major water main break.
The page was updated at 11:15 a.m.:
"Kentucky American Water crews have been working around the clock to address the water service outages in Owen County due to a water main break complicated by the extreme cold. We are refilling water tanks and lines to restore service as quickly as possible today but this process takes several hours. Customers may experience temporary restoration of water service as the system re-pressurizes and stabilizes. This condition may continue intermittently until water service is fully restored.
Once water service returns to your location, please be advised that the precautionary boil water advisory remains in place. In a boil water advisory, customers should boil for 3 minutes any tap water they will use for consumption, such as for drinking or cooking. You should continue doing so for 24 hours unless notified otherwise by Kentucky American Water.
We appreciate your patience during this emergency situation complicated by the extremely cold temperatures in the region. We will provide another update to this situation at 2:00 pm today."
Owen County Schools are closed again today while crews work to repair the water main.

Why Dieting is the Worst Way to Lose Weight

No to fat, yes to muscle!
"Dieting is the worst way to lose weight," says weight-loss guru Tom Venuto. "Most people would say I'm crazy for making such an outrageous claim. However, by the time you finish reading this short article, I think you'll agree with me: Not only that, my hope is that you'll agree so much that you'll join me on my mission against 'dieting' – at least the way the multi-billion dollar weight loss industry has been pushing it on everyone for years."

The three award-winning documentaries "Journey in the History of Water", "Journey in the Future of Water" and "The Nile Quest", present a unique, broad and comprehensive story of how humans' battles with water have shaped our past and will shape our future. The series are based on the idea that water is the only truly universal resource, and that interactions with it have impacted societies and human lives at all times and at all places, but always in different ways. They present a fascinating narrative of these complex relationships and contain beautiful images and tell detailed stories from 50 countries on five continents.
All three documentaries ( 8,5 hours of film altogether) are written and presented by Dr. Terje Tvedt, professor in global history, political science, development studies and presently professor at the Department of Geography, University of Bergen. He is the author of more than two dozen books, co-founded of the International Water History Association and is the Series Editor of the pioneering nine-volume book series "A History of Water". He has lectured at universities in almost 30 countries.

While this post was written for CHSM athletes, it would be terrible to not share this great insight with everyone. I hope you enjoy this incredible challenge to "Level Up".
CJ Pomeroy
Level Up
If someone asked you what it means to "level up", what would you say? Some, if not most, would probably talk in video game terms and say that to level up means that you have earned enough points or credits to take on new missions or possess new and better attributes. It means that you have "paid your dues" - you have fought well - and now you are ready to take on tougher challenges. Think about that for a minute.
Now let's switch gears for a second. All year the leadership at CHSM has been talking about how we should "strive for excellence". To strive, quite literally means, to fight…and not just fight, but to fight hard. The Greek word for strive is "agonizomai" – "to engage in intense warfare or battle". Wow…look at that word again, "agonizomai". It sounds a lot like "agonize", doesn't it? And look at its meaning again, "to engage in intense warfare or battle". So what if we change the phrase up from "strive for excellence" to "agonize for excellence"? Or how about we say it this way, "To engage in intense battle for excellence"? YIKES! That is far more meaningful, don't you think?
Let's go back to video games now and start putting these thoughts together. There is nothing more frustrating than spending hours upon hours in order to "level up", only to find out that you've been fighting the wrong battles all along. Have you been there this year? Maybe it's worse than that, maybe you KNEW what battles you should have been fighting, but were avoiding it because you were trying to find a short cut. Now, you are frustrated and have to make the decision - do you quit or do you engage in the right fight? Do you throw the game away and say, "It's a stupid game anyways"? Or do you dust yourself off, gear up, and head straight into the battle that you were intended to fight all along?
Some of us think that we have "strove for excellence" very well this year, but consider this – if the fight wasn't intense, was it really striving at all? Maybe you think that because you are one of the top players on your team that you "strove for excellence" this year because you worked hard at home all season long. Well, maybe your "battle for excellence" had nothing to do with your skill development at home but it did have to do with your team development at games and practice. Leadership and character - not basketball - was the battle that God intended for you to fight this year but did you fight it? For some of you it was basketball related. Maybe you were told to get tougher, practice your free throws, play lower, box out, etc. Did you fight that battle? Or were you comfortable in the skills you already had and didn't think it was necessary to "agonize for excellence" in a way that your coaches said would help you to "level up"?
Now you might think that it's silly to invoke God into video games or basketball games, but let me tell you this – life is a game, and it's a very serious game. You get to live it once - and only once. Don't you think that God takes the game of life seriously? He does, and that is why he says in Ecclesiastes 9:10, "Whatsoever your hand finds to do, do it with your might…" You should go back and read the rest of this sobering verse, but I can tell you that God takes life seriously. He shows it is serious when He gives you a challenge in order for you to grow spiritually. And He doesn't take a straw poll to see if we think it is necessary or not. He just gives it, without your input or recommendations, and He expects you to take it seriously. By the way, He won't give you a "new mission" or "new and better attributes" until you do.
We are less than 6 weeks from State, and 8 weeks from Nationals and I know that we have a lot of players who are disappointed with how their year has gone so far. Teams have under-performed - maybe some of your teammates have. Maybe you think the coaches keep making the wrong decisions (we are human, too, you know). You keep losing games that you should have won. Or maybe you are playing against teams that you have no chance against in the first place. But let's put that behind us now, and instead let's ask ourselves this – "Have I been missing, or avoiding the battle that God intended for me to fight this season, all along?"
We all have a choice to make now. For some of us, it's mental, for some, it's physical, but in the end it's all a spiritual. Philippians 3:14 says, "I press (strive) towards the mark (goal) for the prize OF THE HIGH CALLING OF GOD in Christ Jesus". God's calling is always a call to battle, both spiritual and physical – and that is the choice that lies before us now. Will you continue avoiding the battle God has called you too this season? Or are you willing, for the next 6 to 8 weeks, to "agonize for excellence" in order for you to "level up"? It doesn't matter if you lose every game from here till the end of Nationals but it does matter if you fight the battles that God has called you to, starting today. If we do this, I think we will all be able to say at the end of the year that we had a winning season!
