1911 Model T Ford will grace Cruise Nite
By: Andrew DiLuccia, Journal motoring editor
Running great at the century mark
Weimar resident Dick Johnson plans to celebrate Collector Car Appreciation Day Friday as he takes his 1911 Ford Model T to the third installment of the Auburn Cruise Nite car show on Lincoln Way in Downtown Auburn. "It's been over 50 years ago since we restored it, and it still has the same paint," said Johnson of his 100-year-old Model T. "It's nowhere near as reliable as the Model A or a Mustang … but if you take the Model T out of town some place, people are glad to see you." The 84-year-old's Model T will be one of some 300 pre-1972 classic cars and trucks that will dot Lincoln Way from 5 to 9 p.m., and as always the show is free to the public and car owners. An added bonus to the evening is that Friday, July 8 has been designated Collector Car Appreciation Day by the United States Senate. The resolution was presented on April 14, "recognizing that the collection and restoration of historic and classic cars is an important part of preserving the technological achievements and cultural heritage of the United States." Auburn Cruise Nite Committee co-chairman Dick Kiger said that next month Auburn Cruise Nite will pay tribute to one of the founders of the show, Tom Potts, who passed away due to illness last week.

News 12 at 11 /Monday, July 7, 2014
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- During the summer it's not unusual to see big group teens out at night, but how young is too young?
News 12 is On Your Side with what the law says and doesn't say about mom and dad's responsibility.
When school lets out for the summer kids have a lot more time to find trouble.
"Throwing eggs from the top of the roof, water fights, messing up the house while the parents where away. So, we got into a good bit of trouble while our parents were away," said Tanisia Davenport as she recalled her summer vacation.
Davenport is now a mother of three. She admits it's easier keeping her 5-year-old busy during the summer than teenagers
"As they got older and they were able to venture out on their own. They basically just like to go to the movies or mall," she told News 12.
It's not illegal in either Georgia or South Carolina for parents to leave their teens unsupervised even in public places, like the shopping center where a 14-year-old was shot over the weekend by another teenager. Deputies and lawyers we talked to say the parents of the 17-year-old alleged shooter can't be charged criminally for his actions, but could foot the bill for damages to any businesses or even some medical treatments.
The suspect is 17. The one shot is 14. Both old enough to be left unsupervised. So, when is a kid too young to be left alone?
"I would guess at least 12 or 13," Davenport told News 12, but that's not exactly right.
Georgia and South Carolina only suggest a child 8 or younger not be left alone. Yes, that's only a suggestion. Not the law. However, a parent could be charged with child neglect or cruelty depending on the case.
"That's ridiculous to me because I can't imagine a 5-year-old being left at home alone knowing exactly what to do and what not to do," Davenport said.
If you need low cost child care during the summer or after school hours, call the following:
Boys and Girls Clubs of CSRA 706-504-4071 or YMCA at 706-738-6680.

Denver has raised nearly $1 million a year in 16 increased or new fees, a fact Councilwoman Debbie Ortega says runs counter to the administration's argument against her proposed bag fee.
Ortega proposed a 5-cent grocery bag fee as a way to change customers' behavior and reduce the number of plastic bags in the city. She had a slim majority of votes on the council to pass the bill.
But Denver Mayor Michael Hancock threatened to veto the bill, saying the bag fee would disproportionately impact poor and elderly people.
The fee "may seem minuscule to some, it is a burden for everyone who goes through the grocery lines," Hancock said in a mayor-council meeting. "We keep nickel- and-diming the consumers, and it puts Denver at a disadvantage."
Ortega last month pulled the bill from a final council vote in hopes of working out a compromise. She also asked the Budget Office for a list of how many fees have been increased or added since Hancock has been in office.
Twenty-four new fees or increases have been or will be implemented since 2011, collecting an estimated $7.5 million per year.
At least eight of those fees were not imposed by Hancock's administration or by agencies under his watch, said Budget Director Brendan Hanlon. They were new fees put in by independent agencies, such as the District Attorney's Office or county court.
At least two of those eight are because of state legislation — an annual license fee for recreational marijuana expected to raise $1.3 million and an annual license renewal for medical marijuana expected to raise $1.5 million.
Of the 16 imposed under Hancock or by his agencies, they include increases in parks fees, towing fees, fees for personal training sessions, a new year-round dog and cat license and fines for not picking up a pet from the animal shelter. Those total about $900,000 in revenue every year.
"Looking at a nickel fee is far less than any other fee than we have asked the taxpayer to bear," Ortega said.
Revenue from her bill would have been split between the stores and city, with the city getting 3 cents and the store 2 cents. The city expected to generate $1.7 million the first year, money that would be directed at outreach, environmental cleanup and buying reusable bags to give away.
"2014 was a low year for fee changes," Hanlon in a Sept. 30 e-mail to Ortega. "We are initiating a new process to review increases and new fees that will be employed before setting any fee changes."
Here are some of the fees that have been imposed or increased since 2012:
• In 2012, the parks department increased fees for permits for athletic fields, picnic sites and festivals, raising $43,800 in revenue.
• In 2013, the city took over elevator inspections from the state and is expected to raise $1.2 million a year, a fee that Hanlon says is because of a change in state policy.
• In 2011, the parks department put in a new fee structure for rec centers, generating an estimated $897,000 yearly in new revenue.
• Tow fees were raised $10 due to fuel increases,which is expected to raise about $90,000 a year.
Twenty-seven percent of the city's 2011 general fund revenue came from fees and fines, including parking fees, traffic citations, building permits and business license fees and recreation center fees.
A structural financial task force recommended that the city "thoughtfully review fee and fine schedules on a regular basis to determine whether price adjustments should be implemented."
Amber Miller, Hancock's press secretary, said the new fees implemented over a three-year span "apply to a narrow scope of the population for specialized licenses and permits or direct services. Each underwent a thoughtful process, including council approval, in order for the city to implement new programs and continue to provide quality services."
Miller said the administration is working to address fees on a comprehensive scale, starting with fees that impact the general public.
"Thus far, we've eliminated rec fees for all kids ages 5 to 18 (90,000 children) and we're working to waive all credit card convenience fees," she said.
Ortega said the bag proposal isn't dead and that she is meeting with city officials next week to figure out alternatives that would be acceptable to Hancock.

Solidarity group sends letter to EU leaders signed by former Knesset Speaker Avraham Burg,
Nobel Laureate Professor Daniel Kahneman and more, saying 'peace process has reached its end'
More than a dozen Israeli intellectuals and public figures have signed a letter urging European leaders to officially recognize a Palestinian State, as "the peace process has reached its end."
The letter, which will be sent to the leaders on Friday, was initiated by the leftist Sheikh Jarrah Solidarity Movement, the group which also organizes the weekly demonstrations in the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah.
"Peace has fallen hostage to the peace process," the letter said. "As Israeli citizens, we announce that if and when the Palestinian people declare independence of a sovereign state that will exist next to Israel in peace and security, we will support such the announcement of the Palestinian State with borders based on the 1967 lines, with needed land swaps on a 1:1 basis."
"We urge the countries of the world to declare their willingness to recognize a sovereign Palestinian State according to these principles," the letter added.
In a statement on the Solidarity website, the group wrote that "the Palestinian appeal to the United Nations to recognize a Palestinian State does not harm the Israeli interest and is not at odds with the peace process."
"Netanyahu's speech in Washington and the sweeping support he received from the U.S. Congress shows that the peace process has reached its end," the statement added, stressing that Israel now has a choice between recognizing a Palestinian State or a renewed wave of violence.
The letter was signed by former Knesset Speaker Avraham Burg, former Foreign Ministry Director General Alon Liel, and former Ambassador to South Africa Ilan Baruch.
Among the intellectual signatories are Nobel laureate Professor Daniel Kahneman, and Israel Prize Winner Professor Avishai Margalit.

Sago Palm: Popular plant could kill pets in hours
(WTLV/NBC) - A certain type of palm tree that's plentiful all across Florida can be deadly to your pet, particularly dogs.
Dory, a seven month old Boston terrier, is back to running around and getting into everything she can find.
Just days ago though, she was in the emergency room after she swallowed part of a sago palm.
The symptoms in most dogs are vomiting and diarrhea. In just hours, the dog can have liver issues, even liver failure.
Dr. Matthew Wilson, a veterinarian at Monument Road Animal Hospital in Jacksonville, Fla., says about 30 percent of dogs who swallow any part of the sago palm will die.
Wilson said just because dogs don't show symptoms after eating the plant, it doesn't mean they will survive.
Treatment and lab work can continue for days, even weeks, just like in Dory's case.
If you live in an area with sago palms, Wilson suggests removing them from your property completely, or fencing them off from your dog.

Your nephew is going to love this! Fabulous manly necklace.
Great design, Linda!
Haven't delved into masculine pieces yet. Your nephew should be very happy with this!
This is great Linda, but your nephew gets more sales when everyone sees this on him. Love the hematite arrow. Favorite – my first man piece into the faves.
Bet he goes nuts over this…awesome!
Very cool necklace, your nephew will really like this! I make these for my son and nephews and they wear them all the time!
Thanks for the encouragement everyone! This is my first Men's design. It took my a while to come up with a removable bail to fit these beads, but in the end it all came together and I'm pleased with the necklace. I just hope Jeff likes it!

People got to take the records of guys from the 70s and 80s with a grain of salt. It is to all intents a different game for bowlers today. Having a 3.** E/R when you played up until 85 doesn't equate to you being a brilliant bowler.
Bracken is a def inclusion given his record: E/R < 4, average of 22, playing in the age of 20/20, boundary ropes, 20 overs of powerplays, and rocket bats. Plus he predominantly bowls when the field is in at the start or at the death. Have him second only to McGrath among Aussie ODI pacemen.

Off the top of my head, in no particular order, my ten would be something like:

Ambrose and Holding are probably the two stiffest calls. On one hand I think "there's no way they're NOT top ten", and on the other I think "who comes out of the ten I nominated".
Here's a hint, I said "no particular order" but Bracken wasn't the tenth person on that list.

…well I don't know what, but after watching the David Bullard videos via YouTube on Groogle, (UPDATE: or watch on David Bullard's recently launched blog) I've got this gut feeling that it's not just about David Bullard launching a blog….
it's not just about a reaction from the blogosphere…
it's not even the Sunday Times launching a 2.0 strategy…(although maybe that's what it's all really about)
But i've got this feeling that the entire David Bullard / groogle / Sunday Times events of the last 24 hours have been carefully planned.
All publicity is good publicity!
Traffic is Traffic is Traffic!
I've got a feeling that all will be revealed shortly.
What I'm not sure about yet is whether Mail & Guardian net Guru's Matt Buckland and Vincent Maher are working with David Bullard / Groogle / Sunday Times on this one…
…but nothing would surprise me.
Ah, there you are Mr Stopforth *grin*

BALTIMORE (WUSA9) - Maryland Attorney General Douglas F. Gansler says a caregiver is charged with abusing a vulnerable adult.
According to Gansler, 53-year-old Ronald Gordon Barnes of Lochearn was indicted by the Baltimore County Grand Jury with one misdemeanor count of abuse of a vulnerable adult and one misdemeanor count of assault.
The charges stem from an incident on December 6, 2012. Gansler says the assault charge carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and/or a maximum fine of $2,500. The abuse charge carries a penalty of up to 5 years' incarceration and/or a $5,000 fine, says Gansler.
An arraignment date for Barnes is pending.

|CT-4749 "Scrapper"
Preferred Weapon: Z-6 rotary blaster cannon
Battalion: 107th Star Corps
General: Plio Sasoon/ Commander: Nimbe Klis
Rank: Heavy weapons expert
Catchphrase: "Clankers! Come on; I'll scrap all of you!"
Honorable appearances: First Battle of Felucia, Battle of Christophosis, Battle of Geonosis
This clone puts it all on the line. Eager for battle and unable to function without the adrenaline pumping through his veins in the heat of battle, Scrapper can be relied upon to be on the front lines at all times, unafraid to stand his ground despite the risks. Earning his name from his preceding reputation that involves a wake of scrapped mechanical droids in his presence on a battlefield, Scrapper is a trooper that truly takes after his template, Jango Fett.
Having a strong camaraderie with his general, commander and fellow comrades, Scrapper has made teamwork a valuable asset in his set of principles and refuses to execute an order without the complete acknowledgment of his comrades. His weapon of choice defines his nitty gritty personality of wreckless valor and courage but hides his momentous intellect which has allowed him to memorize over a dozen different languages which have aided him throughout his battles. Despite his staggering capabilities, Scrapper enjoys indulging himself with classical music and his favorite pastime includes shining his valuable Z-6 which he claims is an extension of his being; Scrapper's face may be one of a million but he strives to prove that he is much more than CT-4749, that, instead of a simple number in an inventory, he is a unique soul among a mass of identical faces.
His individuality makes him unafraid to voice his opinion, which has often put him at odds with his battalion's captain, Ross. However, this trait has allowed him to earn a strong sense of recognition from his general, Plio Sasoon and commander, Nimbe Klis whom he has come to respect deepy.
Adjoining to this, Scrapper is among one of the few clones who have come to question their part in the Clone Wars and he has often been plagued by the inability to determine the future of himself and his fellow brethren at the conclusion of the Clone Wars in the Republic. Like Captain Rex, Scrapper is aware of his ability to make his own decisions and has often defended himself against blank accusations that compare him and his brothers to the Separatist droids.
Scrapper, like Fives, has become aware of the corruption in the Republic and is known to pledge his allegiance more to his Jedi general than to the Chancellor and swears that if there were ever a day in which he would be forced to turn his barrel of his rotary blaster against Plio or Nimbe, he would gladly point it in the opposing direction and stand his ground beside them.

Days ::
The Backroad Festival at Penngrove Park will be in full swing when you finish your ride. Enjoy a delicous BBQ chicken meal prepared by the Penngrove Social Firemen, live music, exhibits, and an extensive beer garden featuring several local craft breweries.
The course routes for the May 22, 2016 ride have now been finalized by the course committee. The committee considered road safety, accessibility to rest stations, and continuity in the ride in finalizing these routes. As such, it was decided that the routes will run counter-clockwise as they did at our first Backroad Challenge in 2011. This configuration will be safe, make rest stations much more accessible, and will be more rider friendly when considering climbs, wind, and other factors. We are sure you will find improvement in the routes over the clockwise configuration used in 2012 and 2013. We provide more specific information for each route on the Routes page.

Sunday Alamba, Associated Press
NIAMEY, Niger — Moammar Gadhafi's playboy son, known for his love of fast cars, soccer and excessive partying, slipped into Niger over the weekend and began making his way to the capital, a Niger government official said.
In Washington, State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland confirmed Monday that al-Saadi Gadhafi has crossed into Niger, where authorities "are either in the process or have already brought him to the capital of Niamey and intend to detain him."
The 38-year-old al-Saadi Gadhafi is one of the highest-profile former regime figures to flee to this landlocked African nation whose immense northern desert has been a haven for drug smugglers, al-Qaida terrorists and now fleeing Libyan loyalists. The discovery is bound to raise pressure on Niger which has promised to turn over anyone wanted by the International Criminal Court which includes Gadhafi and a different son.
The country, however, has not said whether they will turn over other regime figures, like al-Saadi, who are wanted by Libya's new interim government but are not the subject of a warrant by the world court.
Nuland said that although al-Saadi wasn't on a U.N. sanctions list, the government of Niger has made it clear to Libya's de facto government that it will cooperate on cases of fleeing regime loyalists.
"We are encouraging dialogue between them," Nuland said, adding that Libya's opposition leaders would make their own decision about the appropriate course of action.
By late Monday, the ex-ruler's son had made it only as far as Agadez, a town 370 miles (600 kilometers) south of the Libyan border which is still over 500 miles (900 kilometers) from the capital. He was being housed in the governor's mansion, said an official with the Agadez City Council who asked not to be named because he's not authorized to speak to the press.
Agadez is where earlier convoys carrying Gadhafi's senior officers including several generals had stopped. Three of the generals had been summoned to the capital and were en route to the city Monday, said one of Gadhafi's commandos Agaly Alambo, an ethnic Tuareg from Niger who crossed into Libya to fight for Gadhafi.
"They need to talk and finish business with the authorities here, so that everyone is on the same page," Alambo told The Associated Press by telephone. "They are seeking refuge." A four-car convoy of Toyota Land Cruisers was seen speeding into town after night had fallen, lights blinking late Monday, but it was not immediately possible to confirm if the cars filled with turbaned men was carrying the Libyans.
Niger appears to have become the only exit for members of Gadhafi's inner circle. After the ruler's wife and several of his other children crossed into Algeria, that border was sealed. It's unlikely they would flee east to Egypt because they would need to go through rebel-held territory. And the Chadian frontier has proved difficult to cross.
Niger's border with Libya is vast and impossible for the country's ill-equipped and cash-strapped army to monitor. Since last week, waves of convoys carrying regime officials have drifted across the invisible line set on undulating dunes. They include other top regime figures like Gadhafi's chief of security and the general in charge of the country's southern command.
The arrival of al-Saadi takes it to a new level of intimacy, indicating that even the ruler's family is choosing Niger as their best option.
"Nobody called us to tell us that these people were coming," government spokesman Morou Amadou told The Associated Press by telephone on Monday. "We intercept them as they are making their way south and they run into our patrols. We are allowing them to enter on humanitarian grounds since we cannot send them back to a war zone."
The arrival of the son also raised speculation that Gadhafi may eventually be headed to Niger. "There are strong suggestions that he is going to be convoyed here," said an immigration official who asked not to be named because he was not authorized to speak to the press.

Textual Echoes: Fan Fiction and Sexualities
We invite paper proposals for the symposium Textual Echoes: Fan Fiction and Sexualities, to be held at the University of Umeå, Sweden, 11-13 February 2010.
Keynote speakers: Kristina Busse, University of South Alabama, USA, and Elizabeth Woledge, The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, UK.
The focus is on fan fiction published on the internet rather than in fanzines or in other printed forms. In an attempt to move away from the contemporary ethnographic stress on studies of fandoms, focus of papers should be on close reading analyses; how the texts can be approached as literary artefacts and what theoretical models can be applied. The symposium's subtitle: "fan fiction and sexualities" further represents possible approaches, but is to be seen as non-excluding. Suggestions for additional topics are welcome!
Suggested panels:
Proposal deadline: May 30, 2009.
Please send your abstract (no more than 200 words) to the project group Cyber Echoes at: firstname.lastname@example.com. Further information about Cyber Echoes and about the symposium can be found at our website: http://www.mos.umu.se/forskning/cyberekon (please note that information there will be continuously updated).

Height: 6'0" Weight: 237 pounds
From: Los Angeles, California
Rob Van Dam made his surprise debut in 2010 in IMPACT WRESTLING by defeating "The Icon" Sting in his first match. By far one of the most popular and accomplished superstars of the last decade in professional wrestling, Van Dam is a multi-time champion who claimed the World Heavyweight Title by defeating AJ Styles on IMPACT WRESTLING. RVD's in-ring style combines a lethal mix of high-flying acrobatics and martial arts skills that keeps his opponents guessing what he will do next. Never afraid to shy away from a little self-promotion, RVD's opponents will tire out way before his own thumbs do.

CFL, TSN And RDS Reach New Multi-Year Broadcast Agreement
Mark Cohon and Phil King praise great game, strong partnership, bright future - To tweet this release: http://bit.ly/10n40LBTORONTO, March 21, 2013 /CNW/ - The Canadian Football League (CFL) and Bell Media's TSN and RDS are proud to announce a broad new multi-platform broadcast agreement that extends their long-term partnership through to 2018. As part of the extension, TSN and RDS secure exclusive media rights to all CFL pre-season and regular season games, playoffs, and the Canadian icon that is the Grey Cup, as well as to the CFL Draft and CFL Combine. The CFL regular season broadcast schedule expands to 81 games next year in 2014 when the new Ottawa franchise joins the league. The CFL will also see additional games broadcast in French with more games being broadcast on RDS2. In addition to broadcast and digital rights, the deal includes exclusive radio rights to the Grey Cup for TSN and TEAM Radio stations. "This new agreement is a testament to the strength of today's CFL, our tremendous partnership with TSN and RDS, and their important position in the marketplace as Canada's sports leaders," said Mark Cohon, the Commissioner of the CFL. "It's a transformative deal, both for the growth of our league and its presentation. It's an important component of our league's bright future, along with great performances on the field, fan support in the stands, and new stadiums across the country." "The CFL is one of Canada's leading sports properties and has been one of the main audience drivers on the TSN and RDS schedules. We are extremely proud and honoured to have been a key partner in helping to make the CFL such an important part of the Canadian landscape," said Phil King, President of CTV Programming and Sports. "TSN and RDS are committed to delivering the biggest events in sports to our subscribers and telling the country's most compelling sports stories. The CFL delivers superbly on both fronts. All of us are looking forward to adding even more games in 2014 with the Ottawa franchise joining the league." TSN has been broadcasting CFL games since 1986 and RDS has been a CFL broadcaster since 1989. In 2008, TSN and RDS became the exclusive broadcasters of the CFL and the Grey Cup. Since that time the networks have established new audience records for CFL broadcasts. Last year's 100 th Grey Cup game on TSN was the most watched ever on English-language television, averaging 5.4 million viewers through the historic telecast. Last year, TSN, RDS, and Bell Media also embarked on a critically-acclaimed original documentary series, Engraved on a Nation, focusing on how the Grey Cup has become such an intrinsic part of Canadian heritage.

..facial expressions on a laborious labor day..
simple. simple. that is all i want for fall, but i can't shake my need over-the-top.
i'll start here.
Fun face pics. I always wonder where and how these pics are taken. My guess is always your office. Do you set up a tripod? I suppose the unknown keeps a certain mystery about it. Love you!

All boats, whether powered or non-powered, should carry an anchor. Anchors are useful for everyday recreational use, and they can be a lifesaver in an emergency.
Let's look at the most common anchor types used on recreational boats. Pick the anchor type that best meets your needs.
Lands sideways and digs in when pulled, like a plow. Best for rocky bottoms, weeds, and grassy waters.
Pivoting flukes bury the anchor. Best for soft mud and grassy waters.
Typically for canoes and inflatables. Best for flat-bottomed waters.
Other than the anchor itself, you also need to have a line and/or chain attached to the anchor. This line and chain is called the (called "rodethe anchor line."). And together, the rode and anchor are called the "tackle".
You'll use the rode to set and retrieve your anchor. But how much rode should you carry? A general rule of thumb is that your rode should be 7 to 10 times the depth of water in which you plan to anchor—and you'll need more rode in bad or rough weather.
Anchors are important in emergency situations, especially if your engine fails in rough waters or strong currents.
To make sure you're prepared for any emergency, ensure that your anchor is accessible and your rode free from tangles and snares.

Korasi's sword

|The sword of a Void Knight.
Korasi's sword is a weapon obtained from the quest The Void Stares Back. Although it was officially released with the quest on 6 October 2010, it is also used in the earlier quest Quiet Before the Swarm, but only while in Korasi's mind. As the name suggests, the sword is the personal weapon of Commander Korasi, and is used to defeat the Pest Queen at the conclusion of The Void Stares Back. The sword itself requires 78 Attack and Strength to wield, and The Void Stares Back requires other skill requirements, which effectively act as additional minimum requirements to wield the sword. In terms of stats, the sword's offensive bonuses are a bit higher than the Dragon Longsword's, while the longsword's defensive and Strength bonuses are higher, making the longsword a cheap alternative. Korasi's sword is better used for Strength training than the dragon scimitar, although it has higher skill requirements to wield (78 Attack and Strength versus 60 Attack for the scimitar) and it requires completion of a much harder quest than the quest for the dragon scimitar.
If lost during The Void Stares Back, it can be re-obtained by speaking to either Korasi or Jessika, depending on the NPC saved during the quest. After the quest it can be re-purchased from Commodore Tyr for 250,000 coins. When lost upon death, the sword turns into 245,000 coins(Wilderness).
It is often compared to the Dragon Claws due to such a great KO (knockout) rate and high consistency. They are often regarded as the best Player-Killing weapons in RuneScape due to their unbelievably high damage yielded from the special attack. Some players believe the Dragon Claws to be better due to them only taking up 50% of the special attack bar, allowing for back to back specials that can hit very high. Many players were also aware of the ability to use Energy Transfer on a user in the Wilderness. Players would team up to vastly increase the chances of getting a kill. Some friends or hired players would cast energy transfer to the one wielding Korasi's sword, thus providing the opportunity to use the special attack repeatedly (almost always killing the victim). This has now been changed to only work in multi-combat areas of the wilderness, because it was a problem with other weapons as well, such as dragon claws. Korasi's sword is also noted to be extremely good for anti-rushing (the act of killing rushers). In this a vengeance-combo + ring of recoil is used to kill the rusher. Using the ring of vigour reduces the special attack to 54% drain, therefore using the specials back to back is not possible. Although there is a timing trick that you can use which is timing the amount of time it will take for your special attack bar to regenerate again, and you may then use it twice.
To execute two specials with the Korasi's sword the player must have logged in within the last 30 seconds, if the player attacks 28 seconds after logging in with the ring of vigour equipped your special bar will regenerate so you will be able to perform another special attack.
Keep in mind that Korasi's sword special attack hits extremely low in multi combat situations so it is not recommended to be used in places such as Pest Control where it's multi combat.

Template:CombatStyles Longsword
Special attack
Note: You CANNOT block the Disrupt special attack, unless you have Disuption shield activated.
Korasi's sword has a special attack, Disrupt, which drains 60% of the special attack bar. The attack is Magic-based and not only automatically hits but, in a single-combat area, will deal anywhere between 50% and 150% of the wielder's maximum melee hit in damage. This makes it an extremely popular weapon in PvP combat. In a multi-combat area, however, the 50% damage minimum is dropped and Disrupt will damage up to three targets in a chain reaction; the second hit deals half the damage of the first hit, and the third hit deals one quarter the damage of the first. In this instance, the special attack tends to indiscriminately target the nearest enemies, but will fail against targets that cannot be attacked (such as another player in the Wilderness that is outside the allowed combat level range). As the attack is Magic-based, it gives Magic experience. It should be noted if the special attack kills the opponent, the second hit would be half of what it would have hit, and so forth.
During the battle with the Pest Queen, Korasi's sword has a different special attack, one which drains only 15% of the special attack bar and is used to counter the Pest Queen's 500+ damage special attack.
With the special attack of the Korasi's sword based on melee hits, with a maximum strength bonus of +50 without armour (using PvP gear) and the +70 strength bonus of the Korasi's Sword with a Dragonfire shield (+7 Strength bonus) The max strength bonus with Korasi's sword is +127 making the max melee hit (using turmoil with +32% strength, extreme strength and aggressive attack styles) 534 and a maximum special attack of 801 (150% of 534) and a maximum multi-combat special attack hit of 534-260-130. Also if fighting Ice Strykewyrms also with a slayer helmet and previous gear, a max hit of 878 is possible using the Korasi's sword special attack.
Because of the magic-melee special attack and its fairly high stab bonus, Korasi's sword is rather adequate for killing dragons/metal dragons.
With a ring of vigour and good timing, some players are able to perform two special attacks back-to-back without the use of Leech Special Attack or Recover Special potions by waiting to attack until just before the bar naturally restores - their second attack comes just after the 10% is restored. This is done by logging in with at least 98% of the special bar.The player logs out, logs back in, and waits around 28 seconds, then uses one special and then another. This works because your special normally restores 10% every 30 seconds. So by waiting 28 seconds with 98% special or higher, and then using one korasi special, which will reduce 98% to 44%, your special then will naturally restore 10%, which will bring it to 54%, which will then allow you to do a second special. This is devastating in PvP situations, because many players use the protect from melee prayer to defend against rushers, but Korasi's sword deals magical damage, which will hit through their prayer, dealing incredibly high hits.
- Korasi's sword used to be able to be wielded without completing The Void Stares Back. You could keep the sword when you were fighting with it in Quiet Before the Swarm. Since it was a useful weapon, all swords that were glitched out of the quest area were removed.
- The special attack seems to have a similar effect as the Shield of Arrav appeared to have in Defender of Varrock, when Dimintheis defeated the zombies.
- Champions in the Conquest activity seem to hold a sword similar to Korasi's sword, only bigger, broader and perhaps more powerful.
- Wielding this together with an active aura will cause a graphical glitch in the Equipment Stats.
- Although the second and third hit in multicombat zone with the special attack is usually rounded down, at less than 1 it is rounded up, so it is possible to hit 1, 1, 1.
- Furthermore, when you use the special attack on some monsters immune to magic, it can still hit two more monsters, although when the first hit is 0, the next hit will always be 1, so it is even possible to hit 0, 1, 1 (for example when fighting TokTz-Ket-Dill and Lava monsters in the Elder Kiln quest).
- Every hit used to be considered a max hit and the numbers would glow when a player did the special attack, but an update has changed this.
- Many players who use this are people trying to rush or anti-rush in the Wilderness. This allows a player to deal high amounts of damage in little time, rendering the opponent defenceless.
- There is a glitch when using an aura while wielding Korasi's sword which causes the aura outline to not match the sword (this happens with more weapons).
- The special attack of the sword can be used in the Duel Arena even if magic is turned off.

Jonathan Moser
Recently, Kirk Arnold, COO of Avid Technology, spoke with
about their new Media Composer 5 and the future of the company.
POST: What does Media Composer 5.0 represent to Avid as a company?
KIRK ARNOLD: Over the past few years, Avid has been very focused on listening to our customers, improving the value, quality and performance of our solutions and making those solutions more open and flexible. Media Composer 5 is a great example of how we've delivered on all of these promises. We're revolutionizing workflows by offering customers native support for popular industry formats like Red, QuickTime and Canon XF, and basically removing a number of time-intensive processes that have long been associated with file-based projects. And, with support for low-cost third-party hardware (the Matrox MX02 Mini), Media Composer is now more open than ever. This is just the beginning of what is to come. We are committed to making greater enhancements and further opening up our solutions to make it easier for our customers to work the way they want to work — whether they are independent editors or producers or editors or directors of Hollywood blockbusters. And the future enhancements we're working continue to be the result of the ongoing dialogue we're having through our Customer Advisory Boards, our Editors Advisory Committee (comprised of ACE editors,) beta groups and visits to customer sites.
POST: How do you see Media Composer 5 positioned in terms of the future of Avid?
ARNOLD: Media Composer 5 is the result of Avid's focus on 1) listening to customers, 2) becoming more open, 3) implementing innovation and 4) delivering fluid and dependable workflows.
These are key pillars for us – all of which are critically important to helping our customers be more productive and creative. This isn't restricted to Media Composer. This is something we are focused on at every level of our customer base. Feedback from our customers has been consistent across the board. Whether we're talking to consumers, independent artists or executives who lead large-scale enterprise businesses, a few key themes continue to come across: they want technology that will allow them to remove content production boundaries, empower them to be more creative and allow them to work the way they want to work.
POST: What else needs to be done for Avid and Media Composer to recoup the hearts and minds of facilities and buyers in the marketplace you may have lost?
ARNOLD: I'd say we've made great inroads with a lot of influential editors and their enthusiasm and understanding of our solutions has helped us increase adoption and awareness among their peers.
For Avid, continuing to have a two-way dialogue with customers is critical. We need to understand their business problems and assure that our solutions help to address them. In addition to editors, we've started to talk more frequently to producers and directors to educate them on why Avid solutions are the best for their project. For instance, directors may want to know how AMA (Avid Media Access) allows them to work with the format of their choice and make better creative decisions on set. Producers want to understand how our products are going to give them the biggest return on their investment with no "surprises" along the way in the post production process. We're more involved with groups like the Producers Guild of America to better understand what goes into their decision making process and how we can become a part of it.
We've also done a lot of work with educational institutions to get our products into the hands of future editors, directors and producers. In addition to offering curriculum designed to help teach the students the art of editing, we've made it easier for institutions and students to purchase our solutions – with aggressive pricing. Now, students can get Media Composer for $295 with free upgrades for four years – and we need help from people like you, Jon, to help us spread the word! After all, these students are the next-generation of professionals and it's so important to us that they get a chance to work with great tools like Media Composer now – so that they are prepared for the professional world when they graduate.
We're also connecting with our customers in a variety of new ways. Avid has a very active online community and we continue to open the dialogue with these folks to create a tight nit community, share domain expertise and educate the masses. Whether it be places like the Avid.com forums or new mediums like Facebook and Twitter, we encourage customers and prospects to come to these places and share their stories, ask questions, create tutorials and participate in various discussions. This allows Avid to have a better understanding of our customers, escalate any common thread issues and better understand product needs and requests. Another benefit is that customers get a chance to meet and interact with their peers to share ideas, best practices and tutorials/tips and tricks that highlight new features and workflows. These things, coupled with a steady flow of written and video testimonials, provide customers with the rich content they need to make better informed creative and business decisions.
POST: What comes next after Media Composer? What is the next big thing?
ARNOLD: Cloud-based editing is certainly becoming more of a reality. We had demonstrations at NAB this year of how we envision it working as a model in the future. The presentations were packed with very interested customers and we had a lot of great questions. While I can't reveal too much about our product plans in this area yet, I can tell you that we are deeply engaged in a dialogue with customers about the potential this type of cloud-based capability has for the future of our industry.
We are also very focused on what we are calling the Integrated Media Enterprise, or IME. IME is a technology framework, based on SOA Web services, designed to help large enterprise media organizations deal with changing business models for content creation, management, and distribution. IME empowers customers to integrate various technologies and deliver a broad range of business applications that provide them with the flexibility and agility that they need to respond to new demands.
We hear three consistent requests from large media organizations – the need to be agile in responding to new opportunities, the ability to get a clearer picture of how to monetize their assets and the necessity to promote deeper collaboration across every aspect of their business and we believe IME addresses these needs. To date, customer response has been very positive.

San Diego guild show shines againcomments (0) June 8th, 2009 in blogs
The largest woodworking guild or club that I know of is the San Diego Fine Woodworkers Association, and it probably isn't surprising that they have the biggest show. Put a lot of military retirees in one spot, and that's what you get.
What is a little different is that their big yearly show happens at the huge San Diego County Fair. So folks gnawing on a giant turkey leg, their ears still buzzing from a concert by an American Idol star, will wander into the Fine Arts Exhibit Halls to have their minds calmed and expanded a bit, until they get bored and head back out to ride the Nauseator.
Every year, tireless volunteers from the SDFWA, led by Bob Stevenson, return to the exhibition buildings at the Del Mar Fairgrounds to refurbish and set up the pedestals, display cases, and exhibition workshops they provide each year for the Design in Wood show. As the current SDFWA president told me, "We all get paid the same, and we just finished it," referring to the once-yearly cold-cut lunch that the volunteers had just polished off.
For that past 10 years or so, Fine Woodworking has presented the Best in Show award (we earn that honor by ponying up the largest award: $1,000), and this is my third time doing the judging. It is not a total power-trip though; FWW can't choose just any piece. We have to pick from the first-place winners in the 20 or so categories, and those awards are made by state-appointed judges. It is a state fair after all.
In a tough economy, I expected a few less pieces this year, but I think the opposite happened. Must be the hunker-down effect that happens when people have less disposable income. What stood out this year for me this year were the non-furniture items: sculpture, turnings, bird carvings, huge models ships, etc. I can't tell you what won Best in Show yet, but now you have a hint.
Since the state judges tie my hands a bit, I always like to blog about the pieces that I think the Fine Woodworking readers would like best, and then throw in a few of my own favorites. These pieces really inspired me.

Disasters unite people … and we are so grateful for that
On Sunday afternoon while my husband and I were on the First Street bridge to see and photograph the flood for ourselves, a lady came up and asked if we had seen the damage of the fallen trees in the cemetery on Aberdeen Avenue. We left immediately to go to the cemetery. We drove right to the main drive where our daughter's grave is. We could not believe our eyes ... branches were strewn everywhere. We began hauling the branches and piling them all along the main boulevard next to the standing trees. It wasn't long before a young couple came and asked if they could help us. We carried and dragged everything in piles. These two young people were so gracious in what they did to help us in our distress. Tragedies bring out the best in all people. We will always remember these young people ... they stayed until everything was cleared and helped us. We were so grateful.
