- "Hodor."
- ―Hodor
Hodor is a recurring character in the first and second seasons. He is played by guest star Kristian Nairn and debuts in the series premiere, though he does not speak until "Cripples, Bastards and Broken Things." Hodor is a simpleminded servant of House Stark at Winterfell working in the stables. He aids Bran Stark's mobility after he sustains a paralyzing injury when falling from a tower by carrying him from place to place, in his arms, in a basket on his back, and in a wheel barrel. After Winterfell is captured by Theon Greyjoy, Hodor escapes with Osha, Bran, and Rickon leaving a trail, then back tracking to hide in the Stark crypts. When emerging to find Winterfell burned, He leaves with the Osha to take Bran and Rickon north to the Wall to Jon Snow.
Hodor is simpleminded (i.e. mentally handicapped) and he is only capable of saying one word, "hodor" (which is a nonsense word), though he can apparently understand complex instructions other people give. Nonetheless, the Starks set him to work at a productive occupation within his capacities, as stableboy serving at Winterfell. Hodor is incredibly large and strong. While he is slow of wits, he is gentle and loyal to the Starks.[1] He is actually Old Nan's great-grandson and only living relative.
Season 1
Hodor greets the arrival of King Robert Baratheon with the rest of the Winterfell household.[2] Theon Greyjoy directs Hodor to carry the crippled Bran Stark to the great hall to meet Tyrion Lannister. He holds Bran whilst Tyrion offers to give him the plans for a new kind of saddle that he can ride even in his crippled state.[3] Some weeks later, Hodor bursts into Bran's room with the saddle made from Tyrion's diagram.[4]
Hodor bathes naked in the hot pool in the godswood while Bran prays. Hodor is seen by Osha, who tells Bran that she thinks he must have giants' blood in him. Bran reminds Hodor to get dressed.[5]
Season 2
Bran dreams that he is Summer, seeing the world through the direwolf's eyes as he stalks through the Godswood and looks up at the Red Comet. He goes to the pool next to the Heart Tree and looks down at his reflection. The next day Bran has Hodor carry him out to the Godswood; Osha accompanies them and finds a plant that can be used to make a pain relieving tea. She asks Bran if he has had more strange dreams and he claims that he does not dream at all. He changes the subject to the comet, saying that he has heard men say it is an omen favouring Robb in the War. Osha says that she has heard people say the comet is Lannister red and favours their enemies and that she heard a stable boy say the comet was blood red and marked the death of Eddard. Hodor kneels by the pool and Osha helps Bran to the ground by its edge, affectionately stroking his hair. She tells him that stars do not fall for men and that a red comet signifies dragons. Bran stares at his reflection in the water and asserts that dragons are extinct.[6]
Bran continues to have wolf dreams. During one, he follows Hodor and again sees the world from Summer's point of view. Hodor comes to wake Bran up and Summer accompanies him jumping up on the bed to look down at Bran's face. Bran wakes to find himself looking into Summer's eyes with Hodor looking on.[7] Bran discusses his dreams with Osha as Hodor prepares his horse. Bran says that he dreamt that the sea came to Winterfell, flooding the castle and killing his people and killing Ser Rodrik Cassel. Ser Rodrik leads the garrison to relieve the siege of Torrhen's Square by an unknown enemy.[8] The attack was a feint orchestrated by Theon Greyjoy who uses the opportunity to seize Winterfell. Later, Osha kills a guard, then leads Hodor, Bran, and Rickon out the gate freeing them from the clutches of the Ironborn.[9] They travel to a shepherd's farm on the outskirts of the Stark lands. Theon hunts for them with hounds, tracking them to the farm and then losing the scent. He returns to Winterfell with the charred corpses of two boys, claiming that they are Bran and Rickon. He makes no mention of Hodor and Osha.[10] When Maester Luwin sees Osha taking bread down into the crypts. He realizes looking at the bodies that they are not Bran and Rickon. Later in the crypts, Osha tells him that after they escaped, they doubled back through a stream to mislead the hounds, and have been hiding in the crypts beneath Winterfell ever since. Realizing the bodies were orphans working at the farm and that Theon killed them so no one would know that Bran and Rickon had escaped him, they determine not to tell Bran as he would blame himself. However, Bran sitting next to a sleeping Hodor and Rickon has heard them.[11] When the escapees finally emerge from the crypts, Winterfell has been burned and Maester Luwin is badly wounded in the Godswood. He tells them that the children must be taken to the wall to Jon Snow who will protect them from the invading ironmen and get word to Catelyn and Robb. When last seen, Hodor is pushing Bran in a wheelbarrow. while Osha carries Rickon away from Winterfell.

Behind the scenes
Hodor is not described in the books has having a large scar on his right temple, that was added by the makeup department of the TV series to hide a tattoo possessed by actor Kristain Nairn
In the books
In the Song of Ice and Fire novels Hodor has brown hair and a brown beard and is the great-grandson of Old Nan, the oldest woman in the castle. When Bran tells Nan that the only thing Hodor is sure of is his own name, Nan laughs as Hodor's real name is Walder: no one knows where the word "Hodor" came from, but it is only word he seems capable of speaking, and has become his name. The meaning of the word (if any) is unknown.
There are many instances showing Hodor's great strength. Pushing up a roof beam and pushing open the crypt door, even after part of the tower has fallen against it. However, he is very docile never showing aggression, even when being taunted or bullied by others much weaker than he is.
In the books, there are numerous instances in which the mentally handicapped are forced into demeaning positions as court fools, etc., and not simply among the smallfolk. Even handicapped persons born into noble Houses are often reduced to being court fools and aren't treated as blood relatives. For example, the second son of Stevron Frey, Aegon, himself the first son of Walder Frey, was born mentally handicapped and is put in a degrading position as the court fool at The Twins and nicknamed "Jinglebell". This demeaning treatment given to the mentally handicapped is similar to the discrimination that Tyrion Lannister faces due to his dwarfism: as he points out, had he been born a commoner, they'd have simply left him out in the woods to die as a baby. Hodor offers a contrast between how House Stark and most other noble Houses treat the mentally disabled and the weak in general. Instead of making him a court fool or social outcast, the Starks have treated Hodor with respect as a person, giving him an actual vocation within his ability so he can live as a fairly functional member of society. The Starks and Maester Luwin have occasion to tell others, such as the two Walder Frey fosterlings, to not abuse or make fun of him.
According to the TV series official pronunciation guide developed for the cast and crew, "Hodor" is pronounced "HO-dor".

Morton's neuroma involves a thickening of the tissue around one of the nerves leading to your toes. This can cause a sharp, burning pain in the ball of your foot. Your toes also may sting, burn or feel numb.
High-heeled shoes have been linked to the development of Morton's neuroma. Many people experience relief by switching to lower heeled shoes with wider toe boxes. Sometimes corticosteroid injections or surgery may be necessary.

Great shorts but order one size smaller.
This is my third pair of the Lux II shorts. I buy them when I find them on sale. Great running and workout shorts. Very durable after many washings. They breathe well and dry fast. 7" is a perfect length if you don't like the high cut 5" that most running shorts come in. Size small fits me, although I wear a sized medium with most other brands. 5"9" tall, 165 lbs, 32" waist.

While heading to Mahogany Town, Ash and co. are lost in a fog (literally) and are met by a beautiful girl named Lokoko and her Ninetales who invites them to a mansion that belongs to Ninetales' previous owner. After hearing that Lokoko has been living alone for some time, Brock asks her to marry him, which (to Ash and Misty's surprise) she says yes. Why would a girl willingly marry Brock, and what is the secret behind the mansion?
- Brock says he once owned a Ninetales, but this is wrong on two counts. First, Brock himself stated that the Vulpix he got from Suzie was never really his and second, it never evolved into a Ninetales anyway.
- Ash looks up Ninetales in the Pokédex, despite having encountered several before.
- In the dub, this episode aired between For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll! and Extreme Pokémon!. This was corrected when the episode re-aired after Dues and Don'ts.

I hope this finds you well! It's been a year since Blood Bank of Hawaii (BBH) had the great pleasure of participating in Honolulu Twestival 2011 as its lead beneficiary. Thank you again for providing us the wonderful opportunity to partner with Twestival to heighten awareness about the importance of blood donation, stimulate interest among the next generation of donors and increase first-time donor participation.
Over the past year, Twestival funds have enabled BBH to make important strides in its educational and marketing efforts. We are pleased to update you on our progress.
Reaching the next generation
In fall 2011, we contacted a group of young people to help BBH reach the next generation of donors. Twestival funds enabled a professional photo session that produced great images and "talk story" video clips of these donors for our photo library. A well-received cover story in the February 2012 issue of our company newsletter, Circulate, features two of these photos (please see here). Our young donor models will also grace posters for the new Young Street Donor Center, opening April 10, and other collateral materials.
Website Upgrade
A timely follow up to our successful partnerships with these young donors is our website upgrade project. When complete, the website will improve visitor navigation, provide real-time online booking capabilities for whole blood and apheresis donors, and include a digital media library and useful educational tools that viewers may access. The video clips and collateral materials will be among these tools, designed to reach and better educate all ages of donors.
We greatly appreciate Honolulu Twestival's support in helping BBH maximize its investment in donor education to Hawaii's community in 2011. We are confident the generous gift made possible by Twestival will increase awareness about blood donation and positively impact how young people choose to make a difference in the lives of Hawaii's patients.
We extend another big mahalo to you for your and Twestival's support. We will be sure to keep you apprised of our continued successes throughout the year!

Maria Hallas, special to wtop.com
WASHINGTON – Crowds cheered, dancers swirled and bagpipes blared at the 31st Annual St. Patrick's Day Parade this Saturday in Alexandria.
Donna Gray, who rode a float at the parade, says she thought it was a good idea to hold the parade almost two weeks before the official holiday.
"It keeps more of a family atmosphere. If it was actually on St. Patrick's Day, it would be hard to bring the children around," Gray says.
Steve Cochran is a bagpipe major with the Northern Virginia Figherfighters Emerald Society Pipe Band. He showed WTOP the famous musical instrument that characterizes St. Patrick's Day.
"In Ireland they're called the war pipes, and in Scotland they're called the highland pipes," Cochran says. "But essentially they're the same instrument."
WTOP caught up with a man costumed as founding father George Washington who looked remarkably similar to the first president. Washington didn't think it at all odd he was a revolutionary war character and marched in the parade for St. Patrick's Day.
"We honor people of all ethnic persuasions," Washington says. "I have an English heritage and we have an Irish group here and a Scottish group here."
Over 300 people participated in the parade and thousands of adults, children and pets lined King Street to watch.
Along with traditional Irish Bands, some notable participants included local high school bands, military commanders, the Irish Ambassador, and the marines.
Check out this gallery for more from the parade.

It's too early to know whether Hurricane Sandy will be the "Love Canal" of climate change [2], catalyzing a strong national response. But with Sandy's costs [3] still mounting, President Obama has an opportunity and an obligation to press the case for stronger climate action.
In his victory speech, the president called for an America "that isn't threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet." We hope he keeps driving that message home -- to be clear with the American people about the urgency of cutting carbon emissions and strengthening our critical infrastructure against the rising risks of climate change.
Even before Hurricane Sandy, scientists were seeing strong connections between climate change and the increase in extreme weather [4]. The media [5], the public (recent polling [6]), and some elected officials [7] are making the connection, too.
Sandy is just the latest and most dramatic event in a year of record, heat, drought, and wildfires that demonstrated our vulnerability to climate change.
What climate and energy policies can we expect from a second Obama term?
On the regulatory front, we expect the Environmental Protection Agency to finalize its proposed greenhouse gas standards for new power plants and address the bigger issue of cutting emissions from existing power plants. In setting these standards, EPA should give states flexibility to use different approaches to meet them, including market-based mechanisms. That would allow integration of the federal approach with the trading systems nine Northeast states [8] already have in place and California [9] is launching later this month.
On the legislative front, the president and Congress have an opportunity to price carbon in a way that could help solve the nation's other pressing challenges.
Many of the fiscal challenges confronting Washington -- tax reform, entitlement reform, deficit reduction, avoiding deep defense and domestic cuts -- could be eased by additional revenue. A carbon tax is one potential source – and if used, for instance, to offset payroll or other taxes, could be revenue-neutral.
Putting a price on carbon as part of a broader fiscal or tax reform package would spur the development and deployment of clean technologies and put us on the path toward the steep emission reductions needed to avoid the worst projected impacts of climate change.
No one is better placed than the president to help Americans understand both the risks of a warming climate and the opportunities of a clean-energy transition. With the election now behind him and Sandy's lessons still fresh, now is the time.

A former high school teacher has been arrested after police say she pocketed money from students who wanted to attend the president's inauguration.
Kinston police arrested Amanda Grady on Monday, charging her with obtaining property by false pretense.
The 32-year-old Grady was a teacher at Kinston High School, and school officials say she resigned after they found out about the field trip to Washington, D.C. that was never approved.
Each student paid $300 in advance for the trip, but the school system says some of that money was not returned. Police say the former teacher converted $1,450 in the student's money for her own use.
The school system says Grady was a social studies teacher at Kinston for just over a year.
The Kinston woman was jailed on a $10,000 bond.

"The thing is: no organization other than Americans for the Arts does what they do," my neighbor, Ira Silverman, former NEA employee, said to me over a centerpiece of Will Cotton-inspired candy and a steak dinner. "Who else will lobby for the arts—the government?"
We were discussing exactly what these events do, being so seemingly disparate in theme—which is not to say they aren't exciting. In fact, the odd texture of this one may have lent to the lightheartedness of the evening. The roster for AFTA's annual National Arts Awards Benefit dinner and ceremony felt a little random at best: B.B. King, Dakota Fanning, Joel Shapiro, art collectors of Des Moines Mary and John Pappajohn, and a Miami school superintendent Alberto Carvalho. I understood that everyone here was loosely related to one artistic practice or another, but the grouping left a few strings untethered.
"They're here to sell tables," answered Silverman. "And that's what needs to happen." He's right. Most of our orgs in support of creative programming, arts education and arts awareness are funded by the U.S. government, and we all know what a struggle it is to make a case for filtering in more money from that particular group. The event—a candy-colored cocktail and dinner held at Cipriani on 42nd Street—was a success: it raised over $800,000 in support of the arts and arts education.
After a few heartfelt speeches, each award recipient got to accept a Jeff Koons-designed balloon rabbit statuette after a video montage of praise from friends and admirers. That's when the similarities between guests began to gel. Tom Cruise and Kurt Russell appeared on screen to talk about the precocious child star Dakota Fanning, winner of the Bell Family Foundation Young Artist Award, and Buddy Guy—in the flesh—presented B.B. King with the Isabella and Theodor Dalenson Lifetime Achievement Award after a touching introduction: "I don't know if you know this, but I call myself a guitar player. But when I heard [King] doing that the way he do that I said, 'Buddy you've got a lot to learn.'"
Of course the visual artists and their collectors were there to have a chance in the spotlight, too. But perhaps the most telling exercise of the night was finding a connection between a co-chair and a nominee. For example, Carolyn Powers, in a video preceding his speech, said, "B.B. King just happened to grow up on the plantation next to my grandfather's plantation." It felt the most transparent of many loaded statements. Next to speak was Guy, who started his dedication with "I didn't know what running water was until I was 17."
The truth is, many people can't help but start out with money, and many artists have none. Therefore, benefits as delightfully all-encompassing as this need to happen, and they have to take place in New York City, where, as Dakota Fanning mentioned before dinner, is the place where "you can just be one of the crowd," (even if you're extremely famous, extremely rich, or none of the above).
Ms. Fanning seemed less concerned about her award's title than she was about showing up. "Is the award concerning your work at school?" I asked her. "No, not really. I think this is more for my work in films, but I am going to NYU and I have created my own concentration." Either guess seemed valid, since other recipients were awarded for their work in managing art collections and in avoiding cut-backs in one school district's arts education program after the recession. Besides that, before any explanations, I was told that the 19-year-old actress was getting recognized for her approach to gender studies. As she told me, her major is "about the portrayal of women in culture and film."
She must have a lot of personal experience to inform that work, right? "I'm really just taking different classes at Gallatin, where I go, and taking things from those classes. I'm far away from graduating and having to do all that final stuff. I'm just enjoying learning."
Which is, after all, what the night was about. Everyone, even those destined to excel in areas other than the arts, should be allowed to explore that work, and vice versa. In her acceptance speech, Fanning said that so much attention is paid to the downfalls of being raised on camera, but that "there are so many benefits, which no one ever talks about." Traveling, exploring emotions, and meeting interesting people is as much a part of "the arts," as is recognizing the importance of imagination in all fields (poignantly pointed out by Superintendent Alberto Carvalho in his speech). It's about taking from the rich and giving to the underpaid, but it's also about diversifying the role and the criteria of the artist. Inviting such a strange medly to AFTA's function sold seats, but it in the end also spoke, endearingly, for how big the so-called art world really is in America.

Helpful Definition for: Gynecologists & Obstetricians
Gynecologists & obstetricians, in Canandaigua, are the two surgical–medical specialists who deal with the problems concerning female reproductive systems in their non-pregnant and pregnant state, respectively. While a gynecologist treats a patient for fertility & conception-related problems, obstetricians are consulted regarding the problems faced during pregnancy & child-birth. In most cases the professions merge i.e. same specialist is found to perform both the roles.
Gynecologists & obstetricians in Canandaigua need to be specially trained in the following categories:
1. Maternal-fetal medicine or perinatology — an obstetrician specializes in the medical and surgical management of high-risk pregnancies and surgery on the fetus to reduce its morbidity and mortality.
2. Reproductive endocrinology and infertility — a gynecologist focuses on the biological causes and interventional treatment of infertility.
2. Gynecological oncology — a gynecologist is trained to perform the medical and surgical treatment of women with cancers of the reproductive organs.
4. Urogynecology and pelvic reconstructive surgery — a gynecologist also specializes in diagnosis and surgical treatment of women with urinary incontinence and prolapse of the pelvic organs.
5. Family planning — a gynecologist receives training in contraception and artificial pregnancy termination (abortion).
6. Advanced laparoscopic surgery.
7. Paediatric and Adolescent Gynecology.
8. Menopausal and geriatric gynecology.
The Accredited Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG) have recognized only the first four specializations of those mentioned above, while the rest are considered to be informal concentrations of practice. Gynecologists or obstetricians in Canandaigua must complete an ACGME-accredited fellowship and receive Certificate of Added Qualifications (CAQ) to receive recognition as a board-certified specialist.

The 1972 internal conflict in Burundi drove hundreds of thousands of people out of the tiny east African nation. The majority of them, mostly Hutus fled into Tanzania.
According to the UN High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR-Tanzania office), about 162,152 Newly Naturalized Tanzanians (NNTs) or former Burundi refugees plus pending 16,000 newborns continue living in three designated settlements in the northwestern part of the country, known as the "Old Settlements", Ulyankulu settlement in Tabora region, Katumba and Mishamo settlements in the new region of Katavi.
The government of Tanzania expressed a desire to seek a permanent solution for the 1972 Burundian refugees situation and close the three old settlements. Following, a census, individual registration and socio-economic study were carried out, forming the base of the Tanzania Comprehensive Solution Strategy (TANCOSS).
The strategy combined three different approaches, to find permanent solutions for the 218,000 individuals in the settlement; these included voluntary repatriation, legal naturalization, and local integration.
Its adoption was recommended during the Tripartite Commission in December 2007 by the government of Tanzania and Burundi together with UNHCR.
As a result, some 53,626 Burundians voluntarily returned to their homeland between 2008 and 2010. The second approach commenced in March 2008 which involved applications for naturalization, with 162,152 individuals naturalized to date.
In June 2010, the government went further and launched the last approach of local integration with the announcement of the National Strategy for Community Integration Programme (NaSCIP), spelling out the modalities for the relocation and integration of the new citizens to 16 selected receiving regions and 52 districts across the country.
The exercise has been led by the Prime Minister's Office Regional Administration and Local Government Authority with support from UNHCR and other UN agencies.
To speed up the third approach, UNHCR divided 16 selected receiving regions into four zones and established logistical centres to smoothen the integration exercise. However, the centres were shut down in 2011 after the government pending further review of implementation modalities suspended these integration plans.
As the host region, Katavi, where the two settlements of Katumba and Mishamo are located, they host about 115,138 NNTs, excluding pending cases (newborns).
The regional commissioner, Dr. Rajab Rutengwe, has categorically rejected any suggestion that will allow the NNTs to be granted living as the citizens within the two old settlements citing security concern.
"It's not proper and safe for our nation, according to their status (NNTs), they won't be good to stay there, I don't want to see a new Burundi in my region," cautioned Dr. Rutengwe
Shaibu Adam, a villager at Isenga, one of the two streets where Tanzanians nationals live within Mishamo settlement, says, "I don't want these NNTs to be granted citizenship, because they won't be good for us."
They are hard workers, they have contributed a lot in terms of food security, they are good farmers, both in cash crops and food stuff, but they should move from here to settle else where in the country, says another Tanzanian in the village, Jumanne Kiseko, a Tobacco grower.
The NNTs at Mishamo settlement are major producers of Tobacco and through their Association of Mishamo Tobacco Growers Company Limited (AMTG-Limited) they are expected to produce more than 8 million kilograms of tobacco in the year 2011/2012.
According to the Chairman AMTG-Limited, Oscar Jacob Ndimubansi, in 2010/2011, they produced 1.1 million kilograms of Tobacco making more than USD 1.6 million.
"From this income, we have contributed 5 per cent to the district council's revenue through tax," says Ndimubansi.
Mishamo settlement, which was established in 1978, is about 2,050 square kilometers with a total number of 16 villages, 17 primary schools, one secondary school, one dispensary and several health centres. This, is the largest of all three settlements and is bigger than Dar es Salaam city which covers the area of about 1,350 square kilomitres. So Mishamo it self could be a region due to the speeding birth rate among the NNTs.
Each family has an average of between 5 to 12 children, according to the Chairman of Rugufu village in Mishamo settlement, Manase Jacob popularly known as Ngai. He fled Burundi and entered into Tanzania in 1972 at the age of 19.
One of the major concern of the NNTs, is the delay in the issuing of citizenship certificates. "We are not free like our fellow Tanzanians, we would like to participate fully in social and economic issues like our fellow Tanzanians," says Ngai
The charming former Burundi refugee, Ngai says, getting citizenship would allow him to vote and to vie for political posts. He is sure to win if he vies for any political post.

Fifteen of the team's 23 members attended Saturday's party which went on after the school district withdrew its support for the gathering and fired the coach for refusing to move the celebration to another location.
Coach Randy Burbach thought Hooters was appropriate and refused to back down.
The Oregonian reports ( http://bit.ly/1budLv6) most of the players kept their heads down and their hands in their lettermen jackets as their arrival was recorded on video cameras.
Hooters paid for the party and made a donation to the Corbett Middle School sports program.
The official awards party is Monday, with pizza.

Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey is Colorado's highest-paid elected official, but he wants more money and is asking City Council to give him cost-of-living raises over the next four years to reach an annual salary of $232,980 by 2016.
"Mitch is an excellent district attorney; I have no problem with his performance," said Councilwoman Jeanne Faatz, chairwoman of the Government Finance Committee. "But that does not necessarily translate to an extremely high salary. Everything has to be weighed when the public is paying someone's salary."
Morrissey earns more than any other district attorney in Colorado and more than the state's two U.S. senators, seven congressmen, Supreme Court justices, county-court judges, district- court judges and governor.
"I'm supportive," said Councilman Chris Nevitt, co-chairman of the committee. "The salaries of elected officials throughout Colorado are ridiculously low. A cost-of-living increase for the district attorney seems more than reasonable."
Morrissey is, however, not the highest-paid Denver city employee. That is Kim Day, manager of aviation, who earns an annual salary of $240,996.
"Technically, I am not asking for an increase in salary, just recognizing cost-of-living increase over the next four years," Morrissey said. "We looked in the city, and we looked at what elected officials are getting, which is about 3.3 percent. We looked at what our people have gotten and what we are giving our attorneys. What I tried to do is come up with an average that was consistent."
Morrissey is asking for an annual 3 percent cost-of-living adjustment for 2013 through 2016 "to keep up with expected inflation increases," according to language of the bill that will be discussed next week in a council committee meeting.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, metro Denver had an annualized inflation rate of 1.8 percent during the first half of 2012.
Denver police and fire unions have agreed to receive no increase for 2013 and a 1 percent increase in 2014. City employees are to receive an average of 2.4 percent merit increases for 2013.
"This is one of the most unpleasant things I have to do," Morrissey said. "This is uncomfortable for me and for the people who have to make this decision."
He said he is developing a salary comparison that looks at other district attorneys across the western part of the United States.
The increase, according to the proposed legislation, would allow the district attorney to "not unfairly fall behind increases in compensation for other public servants who enjoy annual compensation reviews; not fall unfairly behind the compensation of other elected officials who similarly must have and have had their compensation structure set prior to their assuming office in a new term."
Morrissey in 2008 asked for and received a pay increase from the $145,000 salary that he had received from 2004 to 2008. He got a $32,000 increase in 2009 and an additional raises each year for the following three years. He now makes $207,000 — the top salary among the state's elected officials.
The state pays for 80 percent of the mandatory $130,000 base salary for district attorneys, or $104,000. The counties pick up the rest.
Denver's 2013 proposed budget for Morrissey's office calls for an increase of $450,000 in personnel services because of changes in compensation for attorneys in his office. He said that represents cost-of-living increases for his staff.
The ordinance that will be considered is his salary alone.
Morrissey is asking for his increase from a City Council that last year gave raises to all other elected officials in Denver, including City Council members. The overall 6.6 percent raise that Denver elected officials will receive was delayed two years, with the first half of the increase due in July when Denver City Council members will see their $78,173 annual salary rise to $80,752.
The second part of that raise will take effect in July 2014, when their salary will increase to $83,332. Council members also receive about $30,000 in other benefits. And the council president receives an additional $10,000 a year.
The mayor's salary also will increase 6.6 percent over the next two years to $155,211 by July 2014 from its current $145,601.

In short... yes. We've had better weeks. There were two problems, one which is our fault and one which is not.
First the part that's not our fault (always my favorite part). Remember in June when Folrart and Crest went down for a day? Well, that was the main game server blowing up. Instead of making a new game server like you might expect, they kind of jury-rigged the main responsibilities of that server into the other servers. We've been setting up our main game server assuming that the Japanese Game01 was the main game server... which it is not. Actually Game02 is closest to the main game server. Woopsie. And we're too far along to start over on Game02, so we're retrofitting Game01 to match the structure of Game02, and finding missing files and bits of code along the way. Which is hugely fun.
The other part is that we discovered yesterday that someone who was out of the loop upgraded some of our software beyond the range that Alteil is comparable with about three weeks ago. I THOUGHT we were getting a lot of bugs... On the plus side, while really slow to fix, we're about 90% done... and the newer software makes things faster and more secure. On the minus side, because no one has ever gotten Alteil to work with these versions of the software before, there's no guarantee that fixing the last 10% is even possible. So we've divided our efforts on two fronts. One team is pushing through brute force on debugging Alteil with the new software. The other team is starting over with a new server running the JP approved versions and we're hoping that with the experience gained from setting up the game on the other server, it will go a lot faster this time.

Gun Ban Could Actually Be a Boon for Weapons Manufacturers

Customer Rating:
I installed these in my Home GYM, very easy and I like that you can use either the Grey or Black side of these mats. They seem durable yet soft enough for Yoga, P90X and any of my fitness activities. I installed them on new laminate wood flooring, so I put down some anti-slip rug grippers to keep the mats in place since I have them in the middle of the room. So far they have remained secure and I love the mats. Great easy installation, Great product, Great FREE shipping, GreatMats! Photos have been emailed, website would not take them..

Our basement is very big but the concrete floor didn't make it a fun place to be. We wanted to create a media room and play area there but getting a floor put in was too expensive for our budget. I found 3 companies online that offered foam floor tiles to meet our budget and received samples from them. I gave the samples to my kids and told them to do their worst. This sample was the only survivor. Installation was so easy we thought we missed something in the instructions. The floor is fantastic! Much better than I'd hoped. Everyone loves it and now the basement is the most fun place in the house.

We chose this product for our combination home office / home gym. They arrived quickly and the product looked as promised. My girlfriend installed the mats as soon as they arrived before I could even get home to help. (She said it was easy to do with just a pair of very sturdy home scissors). The finished project looks good! The mats are comfortable and provide some cushion over the hard wood floors. Given the room design and dimensions, the mats do not move while we workout on them. I can see where over time they may deteriorate faster than we would like; but, given the price point and the material chosen, these mats are doing exactly as advertised and promised. A good choice for the price!

Our daughter has epilepsy and started falling during seizures. We decided to turn her bedroom into a ''soft'' room by removing all of the heavy furniture, mounting her t.v. on the wall, changing her bed, and replacing the carpet with the 7/8 inch foam flooring. I have to say that this floor has saved my daughter from serious injury on numerous occasions. When she falls, her head makes contact with the floor first. This floor has been a saving grace, allowing her to play in her room without constant supervision and without wearing a helmet. She loved it the moment we put it down. The non-slip pattern on it helps with traction, but can be slightly abrasive to the knees of crawling kiddos and makes cleaning and drying a little difficult. But the pros totally outweigh the cons and I have recommended this flooring to others. [The attached pictures show the floor in place at two angles. Not great shots, but you can see the flooring looks like a brown rug. The bed was temporary until her new bed came in and the legs were terrible for the mat causing deep indentations]

Customer Rating:
These mats are awesome. We installed them only just yesterday so I cannot attest to their life span just yet but I got them for two reasons: for my kids to play on and for my wife and I to do our cardio workouts (Insanity & P90X). I did my first Insanity workout on them this morning (barefoot assuming it would help keep the longevity of the mats) and I was surprised at how well they worked out.
The rep I spoke to both online and over the phone was extremely nice and helpful. He actually recommended a slightly different product because I was installing the mats on top of carpet which they do not reccomend (mats will slide on carpet and may separate at the seams if carpet is too plush). But I did it anyway. I have an older carpet that is more or less of a commercial grade (hard, not plush) and the mat underneath the carpet is too old to worn to provide any spring to it. I did have to add a cheap no-slip carpet mesh under the mats to keep them from moving but it works like a charm. Will return to increase or lower my rating from 4 stars after I see how they hold up over the next few months. Overall, great buy.

So far, we are very happy with the mats. With more time, I might be increasing my rating to five stars! The color is great, the smooth (cleanable) but soft texture of the surface is welcoming, easy to walk and work on. Installation was pretty simple once we realized the edges called for one of two versions. Other people in the community are asking for Greatmats information to order their own mats.

I use the mats for my workout room. Replaced some cheap mats. Product quality is excellent. Pieces fit together perfectly. Rather slippery compared to my old mats but I'm thinking that will go away with use. One warning... I use a folding chair for some exercises and the chair feet leave permanent divots in the mat whereas my old cheap mats bounced back. Not something I care too much about but thought I'd share. Overall I'm happy with these mats.

GreatMats is the best. This is my second order with them. As always they were excellent at answering my questions and offering solid advise based on their expertise and experience. Their prices are great and my mats arrived very quickly, were exactly as ordered, and were easy to install. Our exercise room looks fantastic. Now we have a floor that not only looks great, but is awesome for Zumba, P90X, yoga and whatever else.

Awesome product. The quality is top notch and
So easy to install. We love the look and our grandkids
will love the checkered pattern we did with the reversible
tiles. Very happy with this purchase.
