My wife called me tonight, quiet on the phone, for a while, until it all came rushing out. "I'm not worth anything", she said softly, and I knew tears were streaming down her face, her hands surely clutching the phone as she sobbed. I listened from 300 miles away in my apartment in New York City, a fan whirling above me in the late August heat, not knowing what to say. All her friends and professional colleagues knew her as a poised, successful, competent, and vibrant woman, but on this day, it all became too much.
My professional goals led me to take a job in Los Angeles in 2003, and since then, I have been on the road most of the time, flying home several times a month to spend time together. Even living in New York, a one-hour flight from Portland, Maine, I might as well have been halfway across the world for the amount of physical comfort I could provide to her. Through her sobs, she said she was a failure, couldn't make her business succeed like she wanted, couldn't make enough money to fix the house, couldn't get through to that freshman girl trying to run three miles in a body that was changing before her eyes, and that she must be stupid not to be able to manage everything on her plate. That, no matter how hard she prepared, no matter how much she gave, she just wasn't making any headway. This from a woman who has run her own successful language school in a small seaside town on the coast of Maine for 15 years, managing 12 language instructors, serving as the receptionist, teacher, sales team, marketing manager, chief operating officer, and president; this from a woman who spends 30 hours a week coaching an elite high school girls cross country and track team year round for less than $10,000 a year; this from a woman who teaches French every semester at Bowdoin college; and this from a woman who still manages to run 40-50 miles a week to stay in shape.
She vented for a while, and I so wanted to tell her just stop running her business, focus on her love of teaching and coaching, and lessen the load on her time so she could breath a little. But one of the things I have learned over the years is the importance of listening. As she spoke to me across the miles, I had open, in front of me, More.com's website, and I spoke to her of the shared bond amongst the readers, the pressures of life, multi-tasking, and the importance of accepting, and embracing, a spirit of "reinvention".
She called me later, her voice weary with sleep, to wish me good night. I told her I loved her, that she would have good dreams, and wake up refreshed. She was asleep before we hung up, I'm sure, hoping to have a good rest before going for a ten mile run the next morning at 6 am.
The city that never sleeps is now fairly quiet, and I sit alone, wondering what a husband says to a woman like this, like all women, who feel like they don't have the time to reinvent themselves; they don't have the time to reevaluate their priorities; they don't always feel appreciated, or perhaps they honestly don't know how to change things and there simply is no time.
I understand that, and so I guess the best I can do is to tell her I believe in her, she has the power, the talent, and the unbelievable work ethic to do anything she wants. What is she willing to let go? What steps is she willing to take to do something she fears? What does she love about what she does, and what would she like to drop? As her constant, though distant, companion over the years, I know I can't answer those questions, but I can do something. I can remind her of the unbelievably substantial, potent, and breathtaking impact she has had on the world around her.
As a female business owner, you have survived far longer than most small businesses, compensating for a small market and no staff by working your heart out, burning the midnight oil, learning new skills, confronting real and imagined fears which would have made most abandon any thoughts of success and retreat to a more stable corporate environment. And what have you accomplished? You have become the fabric of a community, as much a part of the social network and the neighborhood as the general store, the multiple coffee shops, the high end and the corner restaurant, the waves that crash against the shore, the mailman who has been delivering packages and registrations to you for 15 years. You have brought the widowed retiree back to French classes, where she recounts her visits to France long ago to those who have never been; you fill the gap for local high school students too advanced for their high school language departments, or perhaps requiring extra attention; you build bridges between young and old, professional and vocational through your Friday morning breakfasts over coffee and croissants, not only sharing a common love of language but supporting a local bakery; your contribution to the city's monthly art walk infuses an international flavor to the heart of a vibrant art scene and supports artists in their ongoing struggle for exposure. In short, your commitment to your business has created a broader family, drawn to you through the force of your efforts and vitality, and sustained by your vision.
As a visiting professor of French to an elite academic institution, you demonstrate that one can be both an academic and a successful businesswoman; you don't have to choose. As a woman who sets and abides by her own high standards, you may be one of the first strong female role models for your students, providing leadership and modeling successful achievement.
As the first female coach of the girls cross country and track team at a formerly all boys Jesuit preparatory school, your contributions are simply immeasurable. For every talented high achiever shooting for a state record or national prominence, there is another girl struggling to simply finish the race. You are there to provide a whisper, a yell, a push, a pull; you are there to inspire, cajole, to lead, to manage. For every 20 parents who endorses your loving but firm embrace of their daughter, there is always one parent for whom you can do nothing right. For every parent who gives the sun and the moon to their daughter, there is the rare parent who, for whatever reason, cannot or will not be there for their child. Between these two extremes sits you, to catch, to hold, to listen. You meet them in the mornings, setting a positive mood, you wait for them in the woods, cheering the leaders and exhorting the trailers. You run with a grace and strength that mirrors the way you live your life, and, except for the air of authority you carry with you, you could easily be mistaken for one of your own athletes, or a college runner coming back to train at your old high school. On Saturday mornings, despite having worked 80 hours a week, you meet your team at 8 am for a long run, staying back with the new runners on the rolling hills where necessary, then sprinting ahead to lead, and beat, the top runners in a race up the final hill. You respond to their worried text late at night, scared about a race or simply wanting to share a secret. You spend hours late at night at the office, writing up the most recent results, highlighting achievements while suggesting room for improvements, while piles of your "day job" paperwork and emails still await your review and attention. You encourage them to participate in a breast cancer awareness and fundraising event, knowing that it will teach them to look outside themselves and be of service to others; more importantly, it may save their lives someday. I wasn't able to go to that event, but I can only imagine the hope and pride in the eyes of the women who watched you lead those young ladies into that fundraising event, with their pink ribbons on and wearing their best clothes. No one else could have done that but you.
What is your reward for all this? The question doesn't need to be asked, I think. It is plain to see. It's clear in the way the girls look to you, its evident in the words they share with you and the notes they send to you throughout their high school career, and its obvious in the respect they show you when they return from college to see you. I've seen you fight for your athletes, getting in the face of a grumpy old male referee when your girls have been treated unfairly, laughing (discretely of course) with the parents because he probably didn't know who he was dealing with. The parents? I talk to them when I can, as you lead them in warming up for a race. They are huge fans of you, amazed at your energy, your commitment, your caring approach to their children. They know you may be hard on their babies, you may seem to ask too much, they may even complain from time to time. But, at the end of each season, and on the final day of graduation, they know their daughters learned about integrity, commitment, leadership, hard work, service to others, and teamwork from you, their coach. I've seen parents with tears in their eyes as they struggle to explain the impact you have had on their lives; I've seen you cry when saying goodbye to the young woman, beautiful in her strength and confidence and excited to move to the next new challenge, comfortable that she now has what it takes to succeed.
So, as you turn 42 years old this year, you have outlasted most businesses in staying power, you can still put the hurt on some of the top high school runners in New England half your age, you are a mentor, a leader, and a confidant to the next generation of woman, and you've built a durable community around your vision. I know I couldn't do that and I don't how you can.
And finally, isn't it about the impact you make on the world around you? You are not completely what you do or make, you are what you contribute to your world, and your contributions have inspired young women to fight through adversity and dream big, provided comfort to mothers and fathers that their daughters are in good hands as they enter womanhood, taught retirees to re-engage in a lifelong passion through language and travel, and demonstrated the richness possible when a woman fully commits to life.

At its core, the discipline of Christian ethics is about discerning and pursuing the "good" in our personal, social and political lives. How we go about discerning and pursuing the good is the practice of ethical reflection. This course has two central goals: to equip students to engage in ethical reflection for themselves and to prepare students to facilitate ethical reflection within the congregations and other communities in which they find themselves. To do this, the course is divided into three major components: an investigation of basic ethical frameworks and methods, a series of case studies of contemporary ethical problems, and strategies for facilitating ethical reflection in corporate life.

Jan. 13, 2013
STANFORD, Calif. (AP) - Washington head coach Lorenzo Romar has a good feeling when C.J. Wilcox appears to be on top of his game. He must have been overwhelmingly happy Saturday night.
Wilcox scored 27 points and made a pair of crucial 3-pointers as the Huskies held off Stanford 65-60.
"We knew we had to keep getting him touches," Romar said. "He's a pretty prolific shooter. We kept trying to find ways to spring him loose."
Aziz N'Diaye added 14 points as the Huskies (11-5, 3-0 Pac-12) opened conference play with three straight wins on the road for the first time since 1912. Desmond Simmons added 13 rebounds.
Dwight Powell scored 19 points to lead the Cardinal (10-7, 1-3), which has lost three of four.
"We have been competitive in every single game," Stanford head coach Johnny Dawkins said. "It's a matter of us getting over the hump. We're a good team and we have to continue to work like one."
The Cardinal shot .267 from the field (8 of 30) in the second half after finding the basket .517 of the time (15 of 29) in the first half.
"It's very disappointing," Powell said. "We have high expectations of ourselves. We'll bounce back."
The lead changed hands 15 times and was tied on nine occasions before the Huskies gained a foothold early in the second half.
Wilcox, who finished a point shy of matching his career high, hit a 3-pointer to give Washington a 52-44 advantage, the largest lead of the night, with 9:56 remaining.
"They were guarding him pretty good, trailing him everywhere, being physical with him," Romar said. "He did an amazing job against that defense."
Wilcox added a career high nine rebounds and scored 13 of Washington's final 15 points.
The Huskies went scoreless for the next four minutes. The Cardinal had several chances to tie it, but managed only to cut the lead to 52-50 before another Wilcox 3-pointer broke the drought.
Chasson Randle hit a jumper to tie it again at 58 with 3:26 left, but Washington hit its next four free throws to regain the advantage.
Randle, who did not start due to an infraction of team rules, was 6 of 7 from the floor during the first half as Stanford took a 36-35 lead into intermission.
Halftime activities included the honoring of Stanford's Rose Bowl champions. Offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton made a half-court shot, the only successful attempt among players and coaches.

NOTES: Stanford now leads the all-time series 70-68 ... Tonight marked Washington's first visit to Maples Pavilion since Jan. 13, 2011, when Stanford notched a 58-56 upset when the Huskies were ranked No. 17/18 ... Dwight Powell has scored in double figures four straight games while Chasson Randle has reached the same mark in three consecutive games ... The Cardinal shot 51.7 percent in the first half but only 26.7 percent in the second ... Washington dished out six assists but committed 12 turnovers. Stanford handed out seven assists but was victimized by 10 turnovers ... Rosco Allen chipped in with eight points, making 6-7 from the line. Allen has totaled almost as many free throw attempts (42) as field goal attempts (49) this year ... Andy Brown added eight points and three assists.

Stanford Head Coach Johnny Dawkins
"I thought they made plays at the end of the game that needed to be made. I thought their guys stepped up, made big shots, made some free throws and I thought we had some opportunities and we didn't complete the plays. Unfortunately, guys are having to learn how to do that because we have some guys in new roles. I think they're figuring it out, but it's going to be a little bit of a process for them, and they're going to get it. I like Dwight's move at the end. I thought he had the opportunity to maybe spin back and get a little better layup in the lane, and unfortunately you're not in those positions that often, so we're learning to do those things.
"I thought our looks were good, to be quite frank. Guys were pretty much wide open. Unfortunately they didn't go down tonight, and we've been shooting the three pretty well the last three or four games in a row. I thought in the first half, our execution was really good, ball movement, we did that really well. The second half I didn't think we moved the ball as well but we still got pretty good looks from three."
"We need to work on our kids understanding that they're a good team, and understanding that we've been very competitive in every single game we've played. Ours is a matter of getting over the hump. And getting over that hump is something you have to learn to do for any team, especially a team that hadn't had guys in that position that often. So that's where we are, and we have to continue to work on them understanding their psyche is, `We're a good team.' We have to go out there, get better this week, and show those improvements next week when we play again."
Stanford Senior Dwight Powell
"We just need to play tougher. They played tougher for 40 minutes. We need to get those 50-50 balls and rebound, both on the defensive and offensive end. So, we've got to get tougher."
"It's very disappointing, obviously. We have high hopes and high expectations for ourselves, but we're going to bounce back. We're not going to let this get us down. We've got another game coming up this week, so we'll try to take the lessons that we have from this game and move forward."
Stanford Guard Chasson Randle
"It's just the little things down the stretch that we didn't do, whether it was getting open on a lane, screening for one another, blocking out or getting that loose ball. We didn't do it tonight and overall that resulted in a loss. They were closing out a little bit more, but that just opened out other things that we could have done, like attacking the basket."
Washington Head Coach Lorenzo Romar
"We have a pretty good feel for when C.J. (Wilcox) is on. We knew that we had to keep getting him touches -- he's a pretty prolific shooter. We kept trying to find ways to spring him loose. They were guarding him pretty good, trailing him everywhere and being physical with him. He did an amazing job against that defense."
"We were surprised that (Chasson) Randle wasn't starting. But we don't coach their team -- there's a reason for it. Bad move or not a bad move, I just know we were surprised."
"It's great. I've never been part of anything like this. We've had plenty of successes over the years but never gone on the road and won our first three."
Washington Senior C.J. Wilcox
"I had Abdul (Gaddy) and Andrew (Andrews) looking for me, so that definitely helps, but yeah, they know to look for me when I'm hot. Coach told us to be aggressive and look for me off screens. I was feeling it."
"Clearly, Scott (Suggs) wasn't getting it going, so Coach Romar told me to get more aggressive and take my shots. In previous games, we were able to key on certain players, but Stanford has so many options that you can't focus on one guy. In the second half, we sort of broke them down a little. In the first half, we sort of felt them out, but in the second half we buckled down, and the biggest thing was getting rebounds."

What is Instant Messaging?
Instant message, or IM, programs let you exchange messages (text, audio, or video) with another person over the Internet in real time.
What are the advantages of IM?
In a word, multi-tasking. You can chat with several people at once, you can browse the Internet, and do other work on your computer at the same time. Text messaging also lets you to "talk" quietly and privately, useful if you're in a public place.
Do I need special software or equipment?
PC users need Internet access, a web browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Netscape, etc.) and either an AOL account or AIM screen name. You can use your browser, or install additional software to send and receive instant messages.
Mac users need Internet access, a web browser (Safari, Firefox, etc.), and either a .Mac ID, an AOL account or AIM screen name. You can use your browser, or install software from your screen name provider to send and receive instant messages. (There is no web-based service for .Mac users; you will need a free account with one of the other compatible networks to use a web-based service.)
You might already have an IM account and user name
If you have an AOL email address, your AOL screen name (the first part of your email address) is your AIM user name. Sign into AIM Express
If you have a .Mac (mac.com) email address, your email address is your iChat user name. (There is no web-based service for .Mac users; you will need a free account with one of the other compatible networks to use a web-based service.)
I don't have a screen name. Which Instant Message service should I use?
Menasha Public Library does not endorse any particular IM service. But since you can only exchange instant messages with others on the same network, you might want to choose the one that your friends, family or co-workers use.
How do I get a free account?
The whole process takes about five minutes. You will need to access the service provider's website, choose a name, then verify your new account by email. You can also choose to download and install the provider's free IM software on your computer. Once you have verified your new account, you will be able to send and receive instant messages by following the simple instructions for the service of your choice. (If you have signed in but can't send us a message, try adding Menasha Public Library's screen name to your Buddy List (AIM); follow the instructions for the service of your choice to complete this step.)

An entire month MIA...oops
Friday, June 28, 2013
Can't believe I dropped out again, but I've been a busy girl getting in fitness and spending time with the kids for the summer.
This month my real life challenge group has been doing an Abs challenge as well as streaking. I've gotten both done to this point. The abs challenge has been a HUGE challenge, but extremely rewarding as I've seen HUGE improvements over the course of the challenge.
Today was a great, fun day!
My mother, sister and I got up nice and early to head for the mountains to reacquaint ourselves with our favorite hiking trail, Ernie Maxwell Scenic Trail. This is a GORGEOUS mountain hike that is 5 miles round trip. We like to start at the bottom and go up first so that we can thoroughly enjoy the down on the way back. Still, we hadn't realized how long it had been since we'd been up there. I had an awesome case of jelly-legs by the time we were done. It was a great morning for a hike.
I did manage to take a minor spill while up there, just enough to get myself a little dirty. Walking in a narrow area I stepped a bit too close to an edge and the ground gave way making me slide a bit. Luckily this section was pretty flat and my foot only slid a few inches, just enough for me to have to catch myself and jam my wrist a tiny bit and roll in the dirt a little. We joked about setting boundaries our relationship with the earth. No need to give hugs to show that love :).
This hike is HIGH in the mountains and the air is obviously thinner up there. I blame the lack of oxygen for one particularly hilarious exchange.
I am the heaviest sweater of the group, don't know why, but my sister can barely break a sweat while I'm dripping, just how it is. After a break where I swept away some of my glisten I mentioned the saying "sweat is just fat cells crying" and said that my fat cells were crying away. My sister made a joke about them dying...along the lines of "please don't kill...." fading away as the fat cell dies. I came back with "My name is Fato Cello, you killed my father, prepare to die." Yeah, I went there.
It was one of those things that just got funnier the more we thought about it. It kept us chuckling for a bit on the way up and again on the way down.
It was a great morning. Got home while it was still pretty early and took a TINY little nap (about half an hour) and just long enough to let me stiffen up before the kids dragged me to the pool. That was a refreshing break.
While the kids and I swam hubs ran an "errand". Tomorrow is my birthday (44) and hubs went to get the present. I got to see it a day early because it was too big to wrap. I got a new BIKE!! I'm so excited. My sister in law took my old one, borrowed it about two years ago and I haven't seen it since. So hubs went and got me a new one. Nothing too fancy. It's a Mongoose mountain bike. It is white with a powder finish and purple accents. I LOVE it. We after showers and a rest we all went back to the store to find a helmet. Hubs wisely didn't just pick one out for me. He wanted it to fit right and helmets can be so different from brand to brand and even model to model. I found one I loved and we went ahead and picked up new helmets for two of the three kids (the third already got a new helmet with her new bike for her birthday a few weeks ago). So now we are all outfitted with bikes and helmets and ready to take some family bike rides. I didn't get to try my new bike today, hubs had to go to work and I wasn't ready to take everyone out quite yet, but I'll grab a quick ride tomorrow morning after my run and test out the new wheels.
Right now, that is the only time I'll want to go out. We are SWELTERING out here in Southern California and after about noon nobody wants to head out...just too hot. 103 F today and will be even hotter tomorrow, predicting about 111 F. Yuck. I'm good up to about 100, after that I just can't take it and become a sloth. :) Workouts happen early, VERY early.
Hope everyone has a great weekend and, again, I'll try to do better :).

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that makes my kids (and me) wear helmets. In our town, no one wears helmets and I just don't understand the logic...such a simple step to prevent a potentially serious and life altering injury.
Glad to see life is good for you! Keep up the great work!

i only got the codex today. and my first conclusion is that exarch powers are a complete dogs dinner. just plain awful.
for example. why would asurman give up a load of attacks to gain 1 pip of invulnerable?
Still, there are some very good ones. Crushing blow and stalker are awesome on scorpions, dragon, spider and reaper exarchs can get some good mileage out of fast shot, marksman's eye opens some possibilities for the hawk exarch, and hit and run is viable on most aspects who can get it - spears, obviously, but spiders with their insane move distance can also be used as a surprise lockdown unit for an exposed unit of, say, havocs (pity about the power blade nerf). Overall, I'd say at least half of the exarch powers can be useful at least some of the time.
You may have a FMC in a Challenge, but if he kills you or wins combat, your entire army will get rolled. Holding him there all game will do way more good than the 1W you'd do back to him with the extra attacks.

Couple of quick questions:
1. Infiltrating Wave Serpents via scorpions: Worth it, situational or so bad that you should just deploy them normally?
2. Guardian Defender squads in a Wave Serpent: What Heavy Weapon platform would you give them? I'm tossing up between Starcannon and Brightlance (I do have quite a bit of Shuriken Cannons and Scatter Lasers already, I do have some fire dragons, Crimson Hunter and a falcon in the list as well)
3. Warlocks/ Farseer on bikes: Anyone have a good conversion guide/ example that they could share? I'm a bit daunted by the idea of trying to sculpt a great deal, and I know full well that if I put any robes near the Jet intakes a certain regular opponent of mine will start going on the 'no capes' rant from the Incredibles. Whilst not a bad thing, it will get annoying after the 5th time.
4. List building: Because of the number of options in the new dex and (current) lack of 'must haves', how are people going about making their lists?
2. I run mine with bright lances. This makes mounted guardians in a SL serpent a threat to anything and everything. AT, AA, and Anti Infantry. There's nothing this squad can't handle. All for 255 points. Bargain.
3. I've seen the new farseer model converted to go on a bike. He'd be a good place to start. Other than that, try picking a warlock model that looks easy. Cut at the waist and glue onto jetbikers legs. Green stuff to make it look better/add some more robes over the legs.
4. I like to experiment. I have a few models that I include in most/all of my lists. Then I looks towards a theme. Mechdar/gunline/elfzilla
searching for a silver lining does not male the exarch powers any more of an afterthought.
yes, fast shot and disarm are indeed good.
however, if you are basing a strategy on a t3a4 model passing 3+ all game you are onto a loser. my point being, stuff that is so situational is a waste of points.
while i am at it - remnants of eldar glory. does anyone have any use for these? and i do mean real use, not one in 25 games use. eg. 48 inch move feather. why didnt you just give the model a jetbike? which is cheaper, makes you tougher and wil move you most of that distance in a turn anyway?
i dont want to be all negative. there is plenty of god stuff in there. just not this stuff.
The other obvious one is an Autarch with laser lance, jetbike and Mantle of the Lauging God. You have a guy who is faster than almost anything else in the game, has a 2+ rerollable cover save and gets 5 S6 AP3 attacks on the charge. This guy can munch on your opponent's support units all day long. And if your opponent actually tries to shoot at him they only have a 1/36 chance of getting through his save. That is a lot of firepower not going at the rest of your army.
Beer for the beer god!
Cider for the porcelain throne!
I always take an Exarch with my Swooping Hawks. BS5 is a big difference when you drop the templates down.
In my last game, I killed a record-breaking 27 Tau Firewarriors/Pathfinders and a flier in a single movement phase.
It's the highest number of models I've ever killed in my movement phase.
You start with the warlock with singing spear and chop him in half at the waist. Remove the arm with shuriken pistol. Then use the legs and arm from a normal jetbike rider to complete. It was hard work hacking the white-metal but would probably be easier now you can do it in resin.,
Beer for the beer god!
Cider for the porcelain throne!
This should go in the Tactica Thread, but I'll bite.
1. Bad -- no assault ramp. Useful for Outflanking though, as Karhedron stated.
2. I think you're wasting the range of most weapons by sticking them in a Serpent; you don't see Marine players putting lascannon-carriers inside Razorbacks, after all. I'd go for shuriken cannons, where the relatively short range of the gun isn't an issue because you'll be dumping off close to use the catapults anyway, or scatter lasers, simply because their rate of fire is so awesome. Now that they don't cost an arm and a leg, starcannons are once again pretty good (though I long for the days of Heavy 3), but I think they're better off employed en masse via war walkers or Vypers.
3. I'd recommend using the new plastic Farseer as a base, since it's a lot easier to work with then the old white metal models. Chapter House used to make a conversion kit, but I don't know if it's still available, what with all the litigation going on between them and GW.
4. It's really all about how you want your army to operate. I've seen lists that look like good builds on paper that all-foot, all-mech, all-Wraith, or a mix of two. Just like any other balanced codex, it's really about to just ensuring that you've got all of the basics covered (mobility, durability, and firepower).

look left.
take warlock holding sword vertical to ground with right arm.
take one jetbike
take some green stuff.
chop of both warlock arms
chop warlock in half use a razorsaw for both jobs
stick normal legs on jetbike.
cut off warlock hand
cut of jetbike handlebars and turn round.
cut off jetbike hand.
stick warlock on jetbike at a slight angle.
stick left arm back on. stick hand on arm and hand on handlebar and handlebar on jetbike at same time.
stick right arm on.
make cloak out of green stuff.
et viola!
I think 11 guardians with a scatter laser is pretty decent for a wave serpent, or 10 guardians, a platform, and a warlock with a singing spear. Makes it a bit more expensive, but slightly more survivable (and hilarious, depending on the power you roll).
Actually, wouldn't 20 guardians with 2 platforms and a warlock with conceal be more survivable as long as you park them in cover? Ok, some guardians will die, but you may still keep 2 platforms and a fair few extra bodies by the time the first shooting round clears. Somewhere around 250 points will give you 20 guardians, 2 scatter laser/brightlance/starcannon platform and a warlock. That seems pretty decent imo, especially with some Ld-booster around.
1) Conceal/Reveal - Disembark them, shoot 12", fall back into cover. Laugh as your opponent can neither effectively shoot nor assault your guardians. I'd swap Enhance, the Fearless, or quicken power for this one.
2) If you get the strength-boosting power, congratulations. You hit like a space marine at a higher initiative.
3) Destructor is pretty ideal for this, for obvious reasons.
I don't even remember what the last RoB poiwer is off-hand, but even if it's bad you can just swap it for Conceal. I feel like you'll probably get more out of your points, this way. I'd run it more often, but I don't like mechanized armies.
Hello folks, you seem to know what you're talking about. I need help with equipping my sons DA exarch. What does it mean by power weapon. So which ones can he use out of the 7th ed codex? It looks simular to the executioner. Also if he takes the shimmering shield can he still use a pistol as it's holstered on his leg? What do you recommend as the exarchs best equipment? Thanks in advance.
Many of the folks you're talking to are now probably part of the infinite circuit.
A power weapon grants vp3 in melee.
He cannot choose pistol and shimmershield.
The best set-up depends by what you need to do with him,power weapon and shimmershield is good for 10 men units.
Eldar Craftworld and Harlequins: http://www.warseer.com/forums/showth...68#post7584168
High Elves: Soon...
When the codex states power weapon, you may use any of the options (Sword, Axe, Lance, Maul). I have mine equipped with a Power Lance, mainly because if combat lasts more than one round, they're probably going to die anyway. (That, and it's how I modeled him).
The shimmershield/power weapon option is the only one I would consider, and it's not for the power weapon. The shimmershield is great, and a farseer with fortune can find a good bunker in such a unit.
To confirm, the exarch would lose his pistol should you pick any option that doesn't include it. Funnily enough, this also includes his standard loadout (just the avenger catapult), although it's on the model, he doesn't have it.

Evan Wiedeman took sixth in the 100-yard backstroke with a time of 53.09.
March 2, 2014
Tim McCaughan
ATHENS, Ga. – The Southern Illinois men's swimming team wrapped up competition of the two day Bulldog Invitational hosted by the University of Georgia Sunday. The meet serves as a "last chance" to improve qualifying times before conference championships.
The Salukis had just six swimmers in the field over the two day event. Freshman Josh LeClair led the way for Southern, finishing his 200-yard breaststroke in 2:12.56 during the preliminaries. Andrew Spencer followed closely behind, finishing the event in 2:15.13.
In Saturday's competition, Eddy Lynk (1:42.94) finished the 200-yard freestyle seventh while Evan Wiedeman took sixth in the 100-yard backstroke with a time of 53.09.
The Saluki men have wrapped up their regular season and are set to travel to Buffalo, N.Y. for the MAC Championships. The three-day event will take place Mar. 6-8.

As CNN reported on Mar. 4, 2014, "fugitive National Security Agency whistleblower Edward Snowden has joined the speaker's roster" for Austin's South by Southwest Interactive Festival, better known as SXSW Interactive, via teleconference" on Monday, Mar. 10, 2014. This is more than breaking news; it is dumbfounding to think that anyone would give a premiere audience to this man "accused of divulging details of top-secret surveillance conducted by the National Security Agency."
How the story is being pitched, spun, slanted and swirled, per SXSW, from today's news release from SXSW Interactive, is:
On Mon., March 10 at 11 a.m., join us for a conversation between Edward Snowden and Christopher Soghoian, the principal technologist of the American Civil Liberties Union. The conversation will be focused on the impact of the NSA's spying efforts on the technology community, and the ways in which technology can help to protect us from mass surveillance. Hear directly from Snowden about his beliefs on what the tech community can and must do to secure the private data of the billions of people who rely on the toors and services that we build.
The SXSW Interactive is setting up in Ballroom D of the Austin Convention Center as well as Ballroom BC, and "Gold or Platinum badges are required to attend the session." For those who are badge-less, the Texas Tribune nonprofit media distributor will be livestreaming the session for free. All people who think Snowden is worth listening to can also find a free replay on the ACLU website.
Is it really free-thinking, openminded, and a hallmark of freedom in this country, nay the state of Texas, and the capitol city of the state, to give central focus of a festival that was founded to celebrate live music with up and coming artists as well as established stars, over to an individual who is currently a fugitive from the United States charged with "espionage and theft of government property"? What was once a destination Spring Break event now has refocused all attention on a singular side-show carnival.
In the mind of the former CIA and NSA contractor, he could very well be thinking he's a prize tiger on display. Roar, Snowden, roar. Come one, come all to the "sideshow of sell-out." In reality Ed's a clown, because he actually fancies himself a pop culture icon, with a big fan base to hear what he thinks and high-five him for doing what he has been charged with doing. Problem is, no one can high-five him in person, because he is not allowed in the United States at this time, pesky laws being what they are and all that detail stuff.
But there's at least two clowns in next week's circus. You can also hear WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, too. Bet you anything that Assange is more than cranky at being in second-best billing behind traitor Snowden. Can't you imagine the cybersnarking as to who is the most important, nay better, traitor (oh yeah, harbinger of freedom, that's how they see themselves) of the two?
Everyone who likely defends freedom of speech and freedom of information clings to those fundamental principles in highlighting and heralding the right of anyone who wants to hear Snowden's propaganda and Assange's blathering, and they're entitled to it according to the U.S. Bill of Rights. But it's freedom of speech at what cost? What is the cost to national security, to the lives of those engaged in protecting the United States and the families who may lose them as a result of security compromises? It's a crying shame that Texas has to be the site for this act of open-minded stupidity. Austin, Texas, calls itself "the live music capital of the world." Texas music festivals should be about entertainment, and the expansive digital interactive world could do just fine without the presence of Snowden or Assange.
Andy Warhol said, "Everyone is famous for 15 minutes," and apparently no one told SXSW that Snowden's 15 minutes was up a long time ago. Everything is bigger in Texas, we used to say proudly. Today, it's just a bigger case of "stupid."
Free speech is (still) free, so feel free to comment and disagree.

What you are describing is a two-factor experiment. The factors, as I understand you, are treatment (with/without) and knockdown (with/without). If that is the case, then you should read up on using edgeR or DEseq on analyzing two-factor experiments. These methods naturally correct for both conditions and allow you to look for differences in gene expression due to treatment, knockdown, or (most likely what you are trying to find) both.

Laptops usually run on a single main battery or from an external AC/DC adapter which can charge the battery while you are using it. Typical battery life for most notebooks is two to five hours with light use, but may drop to as little as one hour with lots of use. And that means you can expect battery life at best touching the five hour mark.
To discharge a battery, simply run your device under the laptop battery's power until it shuts down or until you get a low battery warning. Most laptop users run their machines on AC power most of the time, figuring that it's better for the battery. If used on main power, the battery inside a laptop will only last for 12-18 months.
Consider removing the battery from a laptop when running on fixed power. run your laptop using battery power until it switches off) then fully charge your battery once again. Those chips use battery power quickly but also tend to get too hot for the laptop's tiny case. The length of time the battery can power the laptop is, obviously, important.
To get maximum performance from your laptop battery, fully optimize the laptop's power management features prior to use. Keeping your laptop clean Disconnect the AC power and remove the battery pack before cleaning. Playing a DVD movie uses more battery power than usual, but any laptop should be able to play a movie through to the end. – Let the computer run under battery power until the laptop turns off. turn all battery power settings to Never and set the power scheme to Portable/Laptop. Plug your laptop or battery charger in at my house and you're using solar power. Actually, many factors affect the amount of time that a laptop battery can deliver power before it must be recharged.
Injection molded plastic battery cases add strength, guarantee proper fit and are colored and textured to match the laptop or notebook. Some notebook battery vendors advertise "refurbished" cheap laptop batteries at steeply discounted prices. Don't get caught with a drained battery and be prepared with a notebook battery from Laptop Travel. Consider replacing the laptop or notebook battery when you notice substantial decrease in its run time.
Some notebook battery vendors advertise "refurbished" cheap laptop batteries at steeply discounted prices. Shop for and buy the best laptop batteries, notebook battery chargers, hi capacity li-ion battery at your source for the best computer. Volt external laptop battery pack for longest run time, always use the 12v notebook battery.
But to be able to run your laptop longer without a recharge, it is important to be proactive in managing your battery life. When you buy a replacement laptop battery, you're just getting a new set of cells to run down. If the laptop does not need the battery it should be run to about 40% charge and stored in a cool place. So if your laptop runs hot – let the battery run down to about 40% and take it out. Most laptops also run at a higher voltage and clock speed when plugged in, and at lower settings when using the battery. Although this can improve performance, these laptops typically run much hotter and have a significantly reduced battery life.
You searched for information on battery and laptop computer. Your new laptop battery comes in a discharged condition and must be charged before use (refer to your computer manual for charging instructions). Of course, once you decide on the laptop computer battery you need, you will want to receive it right away. Plug battery pack into DC input of your laptop computer which is located in backside of laptop usually.
It is normal for a laptop battery to become warm during charging and discharging. A charged battery will eventually lose its charge if unused. This laptop had a dead battery on arrival and it would not charge. To do this, simply insert the battery into your laptop and allow it to charge fully. Charge your laptop's battery the night before you leave on a trip. Since typical li-ion laptop batteries have 375 charge cycles, having a fully charged battery inserted will put unnecessary charge cycles. Charge your laptop battery or get a spare one.
If you're buying the laptops on a one-time grant, you absolutely, positively should buy (at least) a second battery on that grant. When those laptops are new, it's a simple matter to buy a spare battery.

Notebook Battery Tips
Charging notebook computer batteries used to be effortless within the great old days of Nickel Cadmium technique and lead acid cell batteries. All you had to do was build a circuit that would adjust the voltage in such a way that the charging current did not exceed 50% on the notebook battery's milliAmp hour (mAh) potential. A couple of hours later you had a charged laptop personal computer battery power. A very few milliAmps above or below the maximum capability were effortlessly tolerated, with only a slight degradation inside the overall life of notebook laptop or computer batteries.
Today's notebook batteries are lithium-ion types, known commonly as li-on. Lithium Ion notebook laptop or computer batteries are essentially the most superior technologies in terms of power generated per pound. The important thing about batteries is Ah, which is amp per hour.
Ah shows the capacity of amp movement in an hour. Level of this unit determines use time of notebook with battery. Certainly electric power requirements of your notebook affect your life with the battery. This really is although some notebooks (heavy configured multimedia laptops) have 2-3 hrs of existence during some other laptops (especially ones with small screen or SSD) can have battery power usage time up to 8 hours even though they all use the same electric battery. Also most on the notebook brands offer an additional accessory alternative named Double battery power that offers twice amps per hour when compared to normal types.
Normally lithium ion batteries will perform a 600 to 800 charge/discharge cycle. This means a your life between 1,5 and Three years. As described above, if you use your notebook electric battery, re-filling source (AC adapter) will remain unnecessarily pinned.
The second most crucial point is, each filling-emptying cycle (or use) of electric battery will lower performance. Of course this is not surprising. However, according to the time once you compare for the initial use, it will surprise you.
Lithium Ion notebook laptop or computer batteries are one of the most advanced technologies in terms of energy generated per pound
Below here are some advices for proper notebook battery usage:
1 – New notebook batteries are normally offered empty. The initial filling has to be as lengthy as feasible (minimum 4 hours) and usually do not use the battery power just before completely charged.
2 – Don't wait for battery for being entirely empty to charge again, that method was for old type batteries.
Three – Should you didn't use your battery power for a when, don't try to fully charge it, use it at least its occupancy rate is 10%.
4 – Will not leave your electric battery in your car inside summer. Hot batteries discharge incredibly quickly, and cold types can't create as much strength.
5 – Make sure to plug your notebook charger adapter into a UPS and not directly into a energy outlet or surge protector.
6 – Should you have a nickel-metal hydride electric battery, wholly drain and recharge the electric battery once a month to maximize its capability to hold a cost.
7 – Completely cost new battery packs before use. New pack needs to be fully charged and discharged (cycled) a very few times prior to it can condition to full potential.
8 – For notebook that work as Desktop Replacement, the electric battery must be re-installed each 3-4 weeks and allowed to fully discharge.
9 – Leaving a electric battery in the notebook although applying an electrical outlet for extended periods of time will keep the battery power in a constant state of charging up and that will reduce the living cycle of the electric battery.
10 – Tweak your Electric power Choices. Set your screen and hard drive to go off after a couple of minutes, and additionally be sure your technique is set to go into standby and/or hibernate. In case you don't mind a potential performance hit, setting your notebook to run in "max battery" mode will operate your notebooks processors at its minimum operating frequency giving you a nice enhance in operate time.
11 – Use hibernate over standby, standby still puts drain on your laptop's electric battery where hibernate puts your laptop or computer into an off state.
12 – Remember that when you have removed the battery power from a notebook whilst making use of with an electrical outlet – the automatic battery backup is no longer functional. Be sure to plug your notebook into an uninterrupted electric power source (UPS) not directly into an outlet or surge protector.

Tips Laptop Battery Life
Laptop battery life is to make sure that your laptop doesn't overheat. Don't put use your laptop on a cushion or pillow as this will stop the airflow that keeps your laptop cool. Instead, use a wooden or glass table, which cools part of the air completely. For extra insurance, you can put a book underneath your laptop to make sure that the fan will work and that the air can effectively cool down the area. Putting your HP laptop into hibernate mode may be a slower boot than simply putting it on standby, but this will also save your battery.
Putting your computer on hibernate mode saves your desktop on the last time you use it, but it also shuts down your computer so your battery won't take up much power. Extending your HP laptop battery life requires that you take good care of your batteries so it won't get worn off quickly. Make sure that you drain your batteries once a month, and use it at least once a week until it drains.
If you have another laptop battery, keep it charged but store it for only one or two days before using it as the other one charges. Don't keep your laptop plugged and charging when the Toshiba laptop battery is already full. Doing all these will not only be extending your laptop battery life, but will also make sure that you won't be spending us much trying to get your computer fixed, or buying new laptop batteries.
Toshiba Laptop battery life is an important consideration if you are likely to be away from a power source for a period of time. Laptops use a rechargeable battery, which can give up to 5 hours of continuous use (models vary) before they need to be recharged. Watching a movie will use up more of your computers battery life than running basic office applications.
Laptop battery life is to lower the brightness of the screen display? its been known that lowering one level of screen brightness will yield up to 10 more minutes of battery life. You can easily do this by going to start > settings > control panel > display and clicking the settings tab. You can also disable those cool effects like cleartype fonts and fade effects to reduce the cpu's power consumption.
As you may know, many modern HP laptops have a wi-fi built in. Unknown to many people, that wi-fi connection is a power guzzler. Make sure you turn off the wi-fi connection using the external wi-fi on-off switch. If your HP laptop does not offer such a switch, you should go to the control panel > system > hardware > device manager and disable the infrared transceiver, ethernet adapter and bluetooth radio.

With the world going increasingly mobile and relying more than ever on battery life to get work done on the road, it's imperative this problem get solved soon.
I generally don't like the word "regulation," but there are times when it's the only solution.
Without rules and enforcement of those rules, we've seen what can happen when a profits-at-all-costs mentality sets in without oversight. I realize we're not talking national security here, but I'm sure I'm not the only one bothered by this discrepancy.TOSHIBA PA3383U-1BRS Battery TOSHIBA PA3384U-1BRS Battery TOSHIBA PA3465U-1BRS Battery Toshiba PA2487UR battery
Looking for batteries for laptops is simple for those who check around a little and also fully understand what precisely you are looking for are sure to find a bargain. Check these laptop battery buying tips first.
The initial step to finding cheap batteries for laptop computers will be to know the precise make and model of your laptop PC, as you will need this data to be certain you buy the right model. There could be a range of variations of battery packs for your PC with each one supplying assorted levels of battery life, as I describe below.
There's 2 predominant types of battery for laptop computers that are generally for sale for all leading models of notebook computers. The two predominant kinds are…
Ni-MH – Otherwise know as Nickel Metal Hydride these are the battery types used for computers built a couple of years ago. You can still find these kinds of battery utilized widely today and the only real downside of most of these types are that they need a regular complete discharge and recharge. This will make sure they continue to function more effectively. Because of this, if they are not properly cared for, battery power lifetime might diminish rapidly.
Lion- Lithium Ion batteries are now the most popular of the modern day laptop computers. They are much less heavy in comparison to the other designs of battery pack and more importantly they will keep going much longer and don't suffer the recharging problems connected with Nickel battery packs.
Bear in mind that a few of the very old Laptop models make use of Ni-Cad batteries, but these are not in reality available to purchase anymore due to the rather hefty weight and lousy performance. If someone recommends these It is best to ignore them and not to buy these products, particularly if they are second hand.Toshiba A100 Battery Toshiba Satellite A105 battery Toshiba A70 battery PA3062U-1BAT battery
Next you need to realize the batteries for laptop computers come with a varying quantity of battery cell counts. Generally having extra power cells in the battery will usually imply you'll receive an extended battery life. For instance, a new 9 power cell battery pack will have about fifty percent more power usage capacity over a like-for-like six cell batteryToshiba Satellite P30 battery Toshiba PA3084U-1BRS battery Toshiba PA3098U battery
They will tell you that, yes, of course you can get 10 hours; all you need to do is switch of Bluetooth (check!), limit or turn off wi-fi (check, but this one kind of hurts!), dim the screen or better yet turn it off (check, sort of!), and try not to do much with the laptop that might strain the processor like watch a video (okay, solitaire here I come!). Thinkpad x41 battery SONY VGP-BPS2 Battery
Even better: switch it off, it'll last even longer.
So, what's the point of battery ratings if they don't represent reality?
What's needed is an accurate standard that consumer's can trust when comparing battery life across various manufacturers. For all I know such a standard does exist. But if it does, and I can't find any evidence of such a regulation, then it's poorly implemented and certainly not enforced.
Imagine you buy a Prius expecting over 40mpg, but end up getting only 25mpg?

First Drive: Ford C-Max Energi
Where does Ford need to go from here in order to achieve plug-in electric car dominance? There are two major metrics where Ford needs to invest:
1. Bring models to market with larger battery capacities. If the battery is at least 16 kW, it becomes eligible for the maximum federal tax credit, $7,500. This is therefore the sweet spot in the market. Then place that bigger battery either in the center tunnel, or in the floor as with so many other electric cars such as the Tesla Model S, Nissan LEAF or the upcoming BMW i3.
2. Bring larger cars to market. The biggest complaint I hear from prospective electric car buyers is that they fit too few (or too small) people and too little luggage. Ford needs to bring to market three-row minivans and SUVs, and they need to have a lot more luggage space to boot.
Electric car buyers are not as concerned with price as they are with other key metrics. They want the all-electric range to be at least 35-40 miles. They want the car to offer as much utility as a minivan (Toyota Sienna, Honda Odyssey, Chrysler/Dodge Town & Country/Caravan) or SUV (Chevy Suburban).
Tesla is making an all-electric stab at this market with the Model X due by early 2014, but there is an opening for Ford, Toyota, GM and others well, if they just realize what the true consumer preferences in this market are.
Tesla has shown that the demand for $80,000 to $110,000 all-electric cars is strong. GM has shown that the demand for $40,000 Chevrolet Volts is strong, selling thousands every month globally.
Now the opportunity is there for Ford, GM, Toyota and others to fill that $40,000 to $80,000 space with large minivans and SUVs that have a 16 kW battery, large electric motor, and a 2 liter 4-cylinder range extender.
The Ford C-Max Energi is a praiseworthy but very small step in this direction. Much more is needed.

I've already tried to get .py files to open with IDLE by default, but no luck. I've used every trick you may want to suggest. I really just want to open up IDLE and from there open a .py file from a dialogue box. All I get when I try is a blank IDLE screen that won't close no matter what I do. I open it via the terminal so all I have to do is force the terminal to close and it goes away.
I just want to be able to hit ctrl+o and navigate to my file and have it open in an edit mode so I can hit f5 to run it. Anyone have a solution for that?

We Sold a $5,000 Winner!
Not so. This store could be plastered top to bottom with billion-dollar winner signs, could be the source for every winning lottery ticket in the world to date, and still, buying a ticket here would not increase your chances of winning because MATH, that's why. The lottery is random every time, and no string of illusory luck will change that. Someone winning in the past is an event statistically independent from you winning in the future, meaning one thing has absolutely nothing to do with the other. Signs that might have similar relation to winning include: "We did not sell a $5,000 winner!" or "We sold antacids!" or "That's not your real father!" All possibly true, but very much non-causal.
Winning the lottery is really, really unlikely. Signs like this one are misleading because they pretend to be more relevant than they are.
