#1582393 [Guide] Holy Paladin / Disc Priest / Warrior - The Dual Healer!
Posted Flexuzz on 08 December 2009 - 04:17 PM
Before you read what I have to say:
- This guide is for people that actually care and wish to take apart of what I have to offer.
Hence I do not wish to people that do not accept the concept of this setup to require tactics to message me - informing me of this.
The setup of :paladin::priest::warrior:, the dual healer!
This content got extremly outdated so I'm going to update it to the current state of the game, since I just started playing the comp again.
I've tried this setup out with various of participating members and when it comes to the gear and speccs my recoomendationds would be as following:
- In my old guide I had a speech if it was better to run with a protection paladin or a holy paladin, this should be extremly clear now days, a holy paladin is the given choice for this setup.
The Paladin is the mainhealer of the setup and should be useing some PvE parts; landing his resilliance some where around 1000 in my opinion, a few seasons back you could afford to leave out a few extra hourned resillance to gain those extra stats, but in today's arena that isn't posible and not really needed either. A few parts is okey but the days where you ran like a complete pve-champion is over
The setup is however still dependent on the Paladin's mana conversation, you shouldn't use full PvP gear, you SHOULD use a few PvE parts – since there are alot of different teams that will target the Paladin as the "easy-target" and since they might use CD's right in the start to force that bubble it's essentional you actually got some survivabilty!
Reccomendation of specc: http://eu.wowarmory....00000000000000
As a Priest in this setup you get to dispel ALOT which is why i reccomend talents such as Absolution and Mental Agility. But since it's your damage that usually is needed to score the kill it can also be wise to specc into Divine Fury and Searing Light.
My point of view and palystyle, gear-choice and such has changed drastically. First of all you do need to be on your a-game when it comes to dispelling targets but a new role has emerged quite clear for the disc priest – the damage aspect. In the game atm you can, as a disc priest, make very nice off-damage and a wicked sick burst of approx 20k damage in a few globals!
You got a Shadowfiend – that is your biggest damage tool, use it wisely. The managain from the Shadowfiend shouldn't force the fiend out, your preassure upon a target should force the shadowfiend out. It's also essentional that you use this shadowfiend on a good target when it's time to burst – lets say you are calling out a big switch on a druid or whatever – start your first global with Devouring Plague and when this one hits your Warrior should have swapped - 2nd global would be your Shadow Word: Pain, followed by Power:infusion – Shadowfiend – Holy fire – smitespam.
If you do like this and do not get interrupted your damage will be insane and without proper positioning from their side or extremly good peeling the target is most likely dead.
Gearwise I recommend different gear for different setups – myself I've gotten full offsets for both haste and mp5 and using a variation of it in my 3on3 team and swap a few pieces around when we are faceing different teams.
As a Priest today you can get some insane stats and the most important one is the Haste one. In my opinion you should go full out haste – I got some PvE parts and my haste lands uopn 885 atm. Which is insane, almost global cap's your burns with power infusion up and your assist damage is great. I would reccomend to use the spellpower you get from your gear and not specifically put in those +23 spellpower gems – i find them quite useless.
For the mana issue – since this IS a dual healer and however you twist it around unlimited manapool is a great advantage, try your best to get Solace! (I got 4 priests atm and the priest I use for dblhealer warrior ain't got no Solace and it works anyway) Solace will carry your stats, you can go full out on haste and still have great mana thanks to Solace.
And when we are speaking about Solace it's extremly important that you actually keep your stacks of it up, otherwise it's not any good! Blizzard changed the trinket so it would procc on every magical spellcast – but they didn't. For some reason they didn't feel the urge to let Priest's gain mana from offensive dispelling makeing the change rather useless on our side. Instead we are forced to Levitate abuse.
You should make a macro to simply cast levitate on yourself. It cost somewhere around 100mana and it will keep those stacks up when you are pillarhumping or getting those dispels out.
Reccomendation of specc: http://eu.wowarmory....00000000000000 This is the only specc I use atm.
Seing the Warrior is the only real Damage Dealer it's very important he optimizes his gear to the max. If your Warrior got troubles with damage - you will have a hard time.
It's very crutical that the Warrior will go for either one of the arp trinkets and hit the softcap for arp. (Seeing there will come another PvE-ArP trinket from the new instance this would be the best gear setup I belive?) otherwise the best damage output is to stack ARP like there is no tomorrow and try getting DBW and/or Death's Choice.
My Warrior still aims for softcap and sockets Str like there wasen't anything else to do!
A few PvE pieces is aim for, will help you guys out alot, though you should still be able to have around 1000resil with full PvP-gear in your bags if you feel that you are only faceing teams that goes for the Warrior, since right now in the game I feel that those extra PvE-parts aren't that essentional and even with full resil on the Warrior a clean kill is posible!
Reccomendation of specc: XXXXXXX
AddOns and Macros:
We do not really use many addOns; But in general I'd reccomend "Spell Alerter", "Gladius", "Party Ability Bars", "Interrupt bar/Afflicted" and "Power Auras"
When it comes to macros, Don't be afraid of having short but effective macros. I am myself having dispel macros bound to my mouse which allows me to dispel my party members without loosing my current target. There is probally a better way, but I'm using
I know my Paladin is having the same, I'm also abusing Fear Ward macros. A macro bound to a key to give my paladin Fear Ward
when you see the priest running towards him / The warlock casting on a critical moment - It can be a Holy Light for your entire HP pool they are trying to interrupt!
I'm also using very many normal standard macros for a Priest. Which involves the normal fearward on shadowfiend, Shadow Word: Death on focus and so on.
The General Guidelines of a dualhealer setup:
When people hear about a dualhealer setup they instantly think in their heads: "Mana burn and win on mana" "Dispel PvE Warrior and he kills stuff"; but I would disagree
to be able to go high with a dualhealer setup you are required to coordinate stuff in the team. The games are NOT suposed to be like "I'm drinking - you healing". Even if that strategy would seen very effective against certain setups you can most likely score a kill earlier by coordinating bursts.
The Warrior is essentional:
Without the Warrior other teams can put out riddiculus damage on your healers, so it is in fact VERY important to keep the Warrior clean at all costs; Sometimes it might feel like "I need to spamheal otherwise I'll die" but if you instead toss that dispel off, the damage will be neglected by your Warrior sticking onto a target. And the entire idea of the setup is that your Warrior will have a stupid up-time upon his target, which will be devestating.
To setup kills is also critical; You got quite alot of CC in this setup, and if you score a fear followed by a HoJ on a healer while your Warrior is dispelled cooldowns will be used for example! You can also coordinate a fear on one target and HoJ on another one to prevent a dispel and force of trinkets.
And if you keep getting those Cooldowns used you WILL score the kill if your Priest assists on damage.
Another very important thing would be positioning. Do not stand in the middle "hehe lol I can heal you npnp"; you need to abuse those pillars - You need to neglect the other teams damage before it's to late.
a tip to the Warrior: Don't be afraid of using focus Charge/Incercept to avoid getting into a CC; combined with always LoS when you are at a corner (People tend to try to
drag the Warrior behind pillars and CC him, Priest tip, Use Mass-Dispel to dispel the Warrior when he is LoS rather then having your Warrior change target)
You are also weak against HEX. I'm not gonna type this everytime you are up against a Shaman, but keep that in mind!
Setups and tactics:
What 90% of you are looking for: :mage::rogue::priest:
The start is what will either give you an advantage or disadvantage. RMP differs VERY much and what they personally find the best; Some different scenarios and how they are
1. The Priest gets sapped - The Warrior gets into a Frost Nova and they open HARD on the Paladin with dispells and high damage and manages to score a kill unless you use trinkets.
This is what happends when your Paladin is using very Low Resilliance, and this opener is ALL about the Warrior.
Your Warrior needs to be avoiding the Frost Nova / Sheeps from the Mage while being within Charge Range; when they open on the Paladin damage neglection is NEEDED by the Warrior otherwise it's good game right from the start.
Survive the sap without using to many Cool Downs and score a Fear Ward on the fear from the priest/fast dispel and you should survive the opener
2. The Paladin gets sapped - They open on the priest and try to get your Warrior in a frost nova. Easier then then 1. because this time your Paladin can use freedom in the sap!
In the Cheap shop - Before the Kidney lands the Warrior should charge the rogue and at this time the Chapshot should have ended, and a Freedom should be on the Priest; this gives
the Priest enough of time to get around a corner - LoS from the Mage and should be safe until the sap is expired on the Paladin.
3. The Paladin gets sapped - They open on the priest and Power Infusion Mana Burn the priest with absolutly everything they have got.
This time Warrior needs to Charge the rogue
and disarm him fast and interrupt the priest from mana burning. If these burns are not interrupted and they get to spamburn for the entire sap duration you have lost the game.
Basic strategy:
You got two dispellers, use them! Play gay (It's a gay comp!), ALWAYS stick to a pillar, and don't EVER run out in the open. Target the mage and by doing this you should neglect
all of the mage's damage really.
Get the Mage clean from his buffs and keep your Warrior cleaned from EVERY debuff, most RMP's goes for the Priest and when he's stunned the Warrior need to be on the Mage, and if he then got 4 stacks on Winter's Chill up and gets a Frostbite/Frostnova - then the Paladin need to RNG quite a bit to get him clean!
Try forcing an Iceblock with some CC on the Priest and an Recklessness + Intercept usually does the tricks; and at next chance you just dump your Bladestorm. A piece of advice,
when trying to avoid those casts from the mage, your healers will most likely be on the same spot all the time; avoid this at all causes when the Priest of the RMP got his fear up!
and if it can not be dodged - use fear ward!
If the mage overkites all over the place, you can make a Switch to the Priest; Because a lonely Priest without the Priest is VERY killable.
Another popular setup ! :deathknight::paladin::warrior:
Yet again the opener is quite dependent on the rest of the game, an opener you should avoid:
The gate just opened and you are standing there, as a Priest, on your mount. You lookd over and can see that their team is completly rushing to you and you decide to dismount
and get some shield up. (RP lol)
NOO! If you do this, there is NOTHING you can do to get on the Paladin in a good way. They will peel you away from him and your Warrior is NOT able to score a kill on his own!
-This setup usually loves the Priest; They find him like a little toy animal they can just stomp to death. Don't let them! The Paladin in this Cleave team is most likely VERY confident he will not die to your team hence he's a very good target to attack.
Start with your Priest on a Mount - taunting either Charge/Intercept/Death Grip, When they use their first ability toss and instant Hand of Freedom on your Priest and set your focus to run to your Warrior and help him with the Paladin.
The Cleave will most likely tunnelvision you and hopefully use more of their gapclosers - Try getting a good position so they can't get on your that fast and help your Warrior with the Paladin. DoT him up fully and keep Sacred shield of - at this point the DPS is usually up on the Priest. Keep Sacred Shield off their Paladin and Fake a Brainfreeze when the Paladin is at approx 50% at this point you need to fake-cast the Brain Freeze to be able to score that Holy Fire --> Shadow Word: Death off on the Paladin to force him into a bubble.
(If the Warrior changes stance you can see this by a Dwarf-face animation above his head, fake pummel!). When the bubble is off (Usually resists on MD's anyway) Set it up yet again, this time you dump it all a HoJ on a healing cast - a fear for interrupt - a Shadowfiend - full DoTs; and exorcism if there is time over!
If The Paladin you are facing got a brain, He'll togather with his teammates, peel your Warrior off the Paladin with all they got. If this happends you are forced on the DPS and make this fight even harder; now It's about dragging the DPS out of the Line of sight of the opposing Paladin, and to score a kill this way. Harder! But it works; If you manage to score a few mana burns while their DPS is going defensive you could also take it to a manawar.
The next matchup will be :priest::paladin::rogue: (Retribution)
This matchup is very intresting! It's all about if you got the cohones or not. This time will DESTROY something in the sap. Avoid this at all costs! Don't be afraid of using CD's
to survive the very first minute of the game; because from there on it gets much easier. They will most likely train your Warrior all the game and do retarded damage on him.
You need to outheal this damage and get some damage up rather then having your Warrior stick his shield up the first global. Get to the Priest with all that you got and use
the extra rage for your benefit. Use EVERY CC you got on the DPS from the other teams, fear them off all the time (Since you are attacking their Priest, he will most likely also get affected by this and cant dispel instantly), use a hammer, Warrior fear. Use everything to get them off!
Everytime you get that fear off your Warrior needs to be topped off and you should pound some Dispells off on the other Priest and assist with DoTs!
The Priest should eventionally drop.
:deathknight::hunter::paladin: (Holy Paladin)
Another setup that most likely target one person and stick to that target the entire fight. In especially these kinds of fights it's depends quite a bit if you Warrior got the ability to do damage or not; the most easy target to drop versus this setup would be the Holy Paladin.
With freedom and dispels on your Warrior you should all togather be able to put enough preassure out on the Paladin to force his Bubble and afterwards force a fast kill.
If this doesn't work for your team for some reason, then you should try making it to a mana war. Keep those dispels up on the Sacred Shield and toss switches off around the entire oponent team - with some dispels on Divine Plea on the Paladin and a few timed Mana Burn you should be able to score a kill by running him oom aswell!
One of the easiest matchups you can get.
:druid::warlock::warrior: - Hots n Dots n Bladestorm
I belive this is the easiest thing you can encounter at somewhat high ratings; just keep the CC dispelled from the Warrior and score fast kills on the pets; do not be afraid of intercepting a
Cyclone casttime and make a strong switch on the druid with a hammer ready; otherwise just train the pets down and score kills on them.
You shouldn't have any problems scoring those kills and no problems with outhealing the damage from the Warrior and the Warlock upon your healers.
Avoid a strong switch on someone with healers in crowdcontrol; etc; they fear your Paladin totally LoS from your Priest and Switch on him. Only if these things would happen
they can win - avoid it at all costs!
:mage::shaman::warlock: - Shaman Healer and loads of damage
A castercleave with a big success atleast in the former season, and it still goes strong. This is another setup I think can cause various of troubles for a dualhealer and therefor I'll take it in more details with different things that may happen.
The general idea of this fight is to take targets depending on what they give to you; you are not allowed to stick on top of one target all the time - you need to score some switch
and you also need to abuse LoS otherwise the game will be rather easy for the Wizardcleave to obtain.
What usually happens is that they will go for your Warrior and make a good timed fear/seduce on one of your healers and a polymorph upon the other; while your Warrior is stuck in the
open. If this happens you really need to use your CD's otherwise the game will not be long; and you should NEVER let this happen because this is exactly where they want you.
Instead keep those dispels fast and clean up on eachother and abuse that LoS until you got a good opertunity to score a kill. And it's also critical that neither of your teammates
get caught in a bad spot - because it feels like that can turn on anything and just rape it in matters of globals if the Shaman scores a lucky purge.
Example: Your Paladin gets feared into the open and the Priest does not dispel it fast enough. The Paladin is caught in a bad spot - they switch instantly and he's forced to use
CD's in oder to stay alive.
We found out that different tactics works good against specific teams more then the setup in itself. A tactic that USUALLY works is to simply be on top of things and go for the mage.
Keep those dispels rolling as fast as you can and keep the damage up on the mage, the moment the mage is safe they will attempt to turn around at someone and this is important you need to avoid in some way.
When they get preassure up - make sure to get higher preassure and dump a bladestorm to force a block from the mage (a somewhat clean mage without Ice Barrier should die without using his block). After the first block they usually try to switch the game around (Mass-Dispel is not reliable hence I'll explain as if the block was full duaration, not saying you shouldn't try!).
They will most likely pop Bloodlust/Heroism seeing as the Mage is topped off and the Warlock is most likely rather free to do his stuff. LoS as much as you can or you shall suffer from it; Keep in mind that the Shaman will loose mana during all of this time. It will mana intense for the Shaman seing as he's just healed the mage totally up, used Bloodlust and most likely tossed some purges.
If you notice the Shaman's mana dropping low a switch upon a pet to force addiotional burst healing would be a good idea; otherwise get back on the mage when the coast is clear.
Keep your Warrior on the mage even if his dmg is not overwhelming from the start; Don't be afraid to use a Pain Suppression on the Warrior BEFORE the damage is landing,
because this will grant you the power of the game - you drop the mage faster then they drop something else.
Keep the game under controll and keep those dispels coming and you should soon have a good tactic against this comp. (every now and then they will blow you completely up!)
If you come across the same team more then once the tactic will start to fall apars as the mage will go into a kiting mode and you can't really follow that; try chaning the tactic up a bit when this happends.
We managed to RoV the Shaman a few games (Kill the Shaman with all you got the first minute on Ring of Valor), and also to kill the pets and train the Warlock. (NEVERNEVERNEVER do this on Blade Edge's Arena)
I don't think I got anything else to add to this matchup, it's very hectic.
:shaman::mage::paladin: - Elemental Shaman, pewpew Lava Burst
Another caster team that should be able to cause some teams out there quite some troubles; though this matchup is quite a bit easier then the previous.
In this team you are most likely forced upon the mage with the different that you got more space to move in! It's not AS dangorous to change your positions in this comp considering you don't have a Warlock there to Crowd Control your ass off if you get close, not saying an elemental's damage is lower.
In this matchup, don't be that afraid to run a bit forward and follow that Mage a bit, the Priest can most likelydestroy the Tremor and get good fears off on the Shaman - neglecting pretty much all their damage until you got a new good position.
The Paladin will be stationary seing as the Mage will run around with a Warrior bashing on him, if you keep your Warrior clean in this matchup the Mage WILL have to Kite - forcing
his Paladin to move a bit and potentionally fall behind on healing or bunch everyone up a little - opening good opertunitys to score good fears on both the Shaman and the Paladin.
Depending on how the game goes damagewise you should either toss all your CC on the Paladin or the Elemental Shaman, you need todecide that from what damage they can get out.
And ALWAYS remember to stand on a good spot so your Warrior can escape that Mage with an Intervene instantly, because IF they can get their burst up - it's gonna be stupid damage.
I would still recommend to abuse LoS during their Bloodlust duration becuase obviously they will use some cooldown there; they wouldn't use Bloodlust if they didn't think
they can turn the game by doing it.
Survive the burst; try bunch them up for fears - fast dispels on Flame shock is very important. And you should win this comp RATHER easy!
:hunter::paladin::druid: - High dmg ! (Retribution Paladin)
This is a messy matchup that I haven't really figured out a viable solid tactic against, though we always tend to win it in the end but the game is far to close.
The team has to much damage so you can't outheal their sustained damage upon someone - forcing you to LoS the hunter at all times. We tried alot of things, but they all feel "hard" but you can always manage to score a kill.
You don't want to use cooldowns to stay alive against ordinary damage - atleast not as a dualhealer - but in this comp you have to do that if you want to score a kill. You need to very flexible and play very smart.
You all three need to be very coordinated when it comes to the damage output of your team - try getting the druid somewhat clean and all of you switch on him with a Charge - HoJ and a fear on the retribution paladin.
Maybe this doesn't force the druids trinket, but it will most likely force the Paladins trinket after a while - making him REALLY weak against fears. If you keep on doing switches
like this with the purpose of killing the druid you will most likely force all their Cool Downs, and if you really feel that you can't kill the Druid then you should keep on doing this
because the Paladin will eventionally use his bubble to break a fear to toss a Hand of Protection on the druid.
Now you got a choice depending on how the game is. If you drop the druid somewhat low - then you should all focus him really bad with your Cooldowns to stay alive - if you don't druid the druid you should all switch on the retpally with everything that you have got. Preferably switch to the ret when he's got freedom on cooldown.
Because this opens the window of getting a full HoJ on the ret at the same time as the Priest can fear the Druid away for a full duration (Dispelling hots and running for the druid that is most likely rather close because the game should be played around a pillar, usually scores the fear in the end). If you get this moment you should be able to drop the ret with the damage from all three of you combined.
I do not have anything else to say about this matchup, because I simply do not know a good tacc that works better.
:shaman::hunter::paladin: - The one and only beastcleave! (Enha Shaman, Holy Paladin)
You got an advantage here; there's a Paladin that can not get help from any of his teammates pretty much. You can avoid everything they can put out, They got a Freedom - so do you.
Only thing is that Hexx that you need to avoid.
We never experienced any troubles with this setup, simply get everything up on the Paladin and force him to bubble - Dispel - repeat.
A thing to think about is that 90% of the Enchancement I've ever faced are using his Wolves as his first global, and the global after he's using Bloodlust (why?). If you just take it
chill in the start, and have your Warrior just peeling everything off, and simply LoSing the Hunter during the Bloodlust duration - then you should not have any problems to kill
the paladin afterwards when the Damaged chilled out.
:rogue::shaman::warlock: - The RLS
Another setup that is very popular now days; it consist of players determend to rape you rather fast.
One common opener you need to avoid:
Your Warrior runs in - confident to his bones that nothing can kill him with his two healer when suddently a sap lands on the Priest - The Warlock starts charging Immolate
on the Warrior and at this point the Warrior is well long away from your healers. When this happens the Rogue opens on your Paladin and just CC him for a bit with a Cheapshot
and a Gaouge/Kidney shot - and after that he runs fast over to the Warrior with the dismantle and Vanish Cheapshot - Warrior dead.
If this doesn't happen the game should be somewhat easy; be in your agame with those dispels and don't allow both of your Healers to get stuck in a CC. If you coordinate a few fast CC's on the Shaman you should have little to no trouble to score fast kills on the pet and afterwards being able to kill the Warlock rather easy.
I have also experienced teams where the Shaman simply goes oom by trying to heal the pet up - but the best way is to toss some CC on the Shaman all the time and score those Pet kills and simply force the Warlock defensive and score a kill after a while. If you manage to survive their crazy burst this setup tend to be easy.
Just realised that I already typed a line or two about this setup, I'll just paste them here.
A setup with insane damage if they play properly and you are required to be able to switch from offensive to defensive quite fast.
Yet again, be very keen on where you stand on the map, ALWAYS have an Intervene path open when the other team can get a burst off. Target pets! The most simple way of winning this setup is to kill the pets.
Their setup will give you some cluth moments where they try to burst and can't really succed - in these moments you need to land a good CC and score a fast kill on a Pet.
Usually what happends is that when you kill the pets your Warrior will be dropping low and needs to escape FAST. Do the same and look for the window to kill the secound pet without taking any risks; once you scored that kill there is not much more to it then to finish off the Warlock.
Keep the dispelling fast and avoid the Hex's from the Shaman and I do not think this setup will be to any greater troubles.
:priest: - The Moonbaboon Cleave
There is nothing you can do against this setup.
I'm going to round this guide up here, simply because it got way to boring to explain everything even closer in. I will most likely catch up on this guide and make additions to
it at requests and everyone are free to type to me on Arenajunkies and I'll put in what you are looking for, even if I do not respond to you - I'm reading everything.
This guide is also for the people that are curios about some setups, if this helped someone to win a single game - then Im glad. You should not QQ about something to be in
PM nor should you make some kind of flame post, if you do not like this - make it better. I'm also bilingual and I got no form of spelling programs installed; If you do not like my English - do not read it!
This guide is heavily outdated, I'll be tossing in some updates whenever I have the time and will to do such. Next time I'll do a 3s session I will take notes on every team and update the matchup content a bit aswell

Transfer credit is granted only for academically-valid courses in which the student earns a grade of C- or higher. Transfer credit is granted in the form of a comparable course, distribution credit, or elective credit. Credit is normally only awarded for courses taken at a similarly accredited institution. Students who take courses at schools without a similar regional accreditation must provide syllabi for all courses for individual evaluation by the registrar's office and departmental review. If the course is too focused or outside our curriculum delivery, no credit will be granted.
Current students wishing to transfer credit back to Juniata must obtain pre-approval by completing a "Request for Clearance of Transfer Credit" form available in the Registrar's Office. On this form, the appropriate department chair will note the comparable Juniata course(s) (consulting as needed with the most recent instructor of the comparable course), and the student's advisers will indicate approval. For courses not deemed comparable with a Juniata offering, decisions will be made by the Registrar with advice from the appropriate department and the Student Academic Development Committee as appropriate. It is the student's responsibility to obtain information about the course and present this information to advisers and the department chair(s).
Students who enter Juniata with fewer than 24 credit hours may apply no more than 15 transfer credits toward a Juniata degree after their initial entry. No more than six of these 15 credits can be included in the POE. Students who enter Juniata with 24 or more credit hours may transfer credit according to the following chart.
|#of credits
awarded upon entry
|total # transfer credits
allowed after entry
|# transfer credits allowed
in POE after entry
|0 - 23.99
|24 - 53.99
|54 - 86.99
|87 or more
Exceptions may be made for students participating in cooperative programs, study abroad programs, and other Juniata-approved programs. Students who have earned an associate degree elsewhere are awarded credit as indicated in the Admission section of this catalog.
Students taking a leave of absence to study at another institution whether abroad or domestic, that is not a Juniata-approved program, must obtain pre-approval by completing a "Request for Clearance of Transfer Credit" form available in the Registrar's Office. These requests are subject to the guidelines listed above.
Students who have earned an associate degree elsewhere are awarded credit as indicated in the Admission section of this catalog. Students transferring to Juniata from an accredited institution without a degree (including those that previously attended Juniata) are awarded credit as indicated in the Admissions section of this catalog.
Prospective International Students: Have you completed university classes? There two ways in which international credit transfer can be processed:
1) If courses are being transferred from a partner university http://www.juniata.edu/departments/international/ea/db/ the original academic records should be submitted to the Dean of the Center for International for evaluation.
2) If the courses are being transferred from a university which has not been previously 'recognized' by Juniata,, the student should contact two recommended credential evaluation companies. Please follow the instructions on their website :
- International Education Research Foundation http://www.ierf.org
- World Education Services http://www.wes.org
- Educational Credential Evaluators, Inc. http://www.ece.org
In either case, students who wish to transfer credits should initiate the process prior to arrival so that the information can be readily available as they choose their courses for the first two semesters. Please note once you have matriculated there is a policy of how much credit you may transfer. Look to the Academic Planning for Transfer credit policy.
For more information regarding the transfer clearance process, contact Jodi Prough in the Registrar's Office at 814 641-3170 or email@example.com.

Why Your Second Career May End in a Layoff
What's the biggest mistake people make when it comes to starting a second career?
BUD HEBELER: There are a number of common mistakes. One is being inadequately prepared technically or physically or even prepared for a different lifestyle, perhaps from a lot less or a lot more business travel. Another is entering a completely new network or living area that is unknown or requires special social skills. Still another is underestimating the competitiveness in a new industry either from fellow employees or other businesses.
But often the most challenging is not recognizing the fragility of the new career from the standpoint of having continuous employment. This may be particularly true with employers who have great respect for seniority when downsizing. If a merger is in the future, newer people with less experience are likely to be the first to go.

Reprinted from The One-Way Relationship Workbook: Step-by-Step Help for Coping With Narcissists, Egotistical Lovers, Toxic Coworkers, and Others Who Are Incredibly Self-Absorbed
By Neil Lavender, Ph.D. and Alan Cavaiola, Ph.D.
Not all narcissists are the same. Millon and Davis (1996) describe the following subtypes of people with NPD: the unprincipled narcissist, the amorous narcissist, the compensatory narcissist, and the elitist narcissist. As you read about these subtypes, see if any seem similar to the person you have concerns about. Note that both men and women can fall into any of these categories, and the narcissist in your life may exhibit traits of more than one subtype.
The Unprincipled Narcissist
What characterizes this group of narcissists is that they seem to be devoid of a conscience, or sense of right and wrong. They are often unconcerned with the welfare of others and are amoral, unscrupulous, and deceptive in their dealings with others. They exude an arrogant sense of self-worth and grandiosity. They are driven by a need to outwit others, which proves that they are smarter than those they prey on. It's not unusual to find this type of narcissist in jails, prisons, and drug rehabilitation centers although many unprincipled narcissists go through life without running afoul of the law.
The Amorous Narcissist
Amorous narcissists have an erotic or seductive orientation. They construct and measure their self-worth around sexual conquests. They often run through a string of pathological relationships, casting aside the person they have just seduced only to look for their next conquest. Amorous narcissists are often known for being heartbreakers, as well as committing some rather outrageous acts, such as conning their sexual partners out of huge sums of money, pathological lying, and other types of fraudulent behavior. The amorous narcissist is truly the Don Juan character who compensates for deeper feelings of inadequacy by seducing others and taking them for all they're worth. Each sexual conquest reinforces the amorous narcissist's sense of self-worth and over-inflated self-image.
The Compensatory Narcissist
This type of narcissist is driven by a need to compensate for past hurts or childhood emotional wounds by creating an illusion of superiority. Compensatory narcissists live in a fantasy world of their own creation in which they "pursue the leading role in a false and imaginary theater" (Millon and Davis 1996, 411) rather than living their own lives. They are driven to enhance their self-esteem through what are often imagined achievements. In order to achieve this goal for prestige, compensatory narcissists need an audience of others who will buy into their deception. In fact, compensatory narcissists are often hypervigilant or highly sensitive to how others react or perceive them, often watching or carefully listening for any signs of criticism or disdain.
The Elitist Narcissist
In some ways similar to the compensatory narcissist, elitist narcissists are often obsessed with their own inflated self-image. They often create a false sense of self that bears little resemblance to their actual selves, yet they manage to convince themselves (and often those around them) of their unique talents and abilities. They feel empowered and entitled to special treatment because of whatever status or pseudo-achievements they may have attained. Elitist narcissists often turn relationships into competitions or contests, whether they are work relationships, friendships, or even love relationships. Here the goal is winning, no matter what the means or cost, in order to prove to others (and themselves) their incomparable superiority. Elitist narcissists are often social climbers and they think nothing of stepping on or over anyone in their quest for fame and status. They are very adept at marketing themselves and will not shrink from any opportunity to do so. Because elitist narcissists hold themselves in such high regard, they see little need to listen to others or follow directions.

Hypertension/High Blood Pressure Health Center
DASH Diet and High Blood Pressure
In this article
One of the steps your doctor may recommend to lower your high blood pressure is to start using the DASH diet.
DASH stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. The diet is simple:
- Eat more fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy foods
- Cut back on foods that are high in saturated fat, cholesterol, and trans fats
- Eat more whole-grain foods, fish, poultry, and nuts
- Limit sodium, sweets, sugary drinks, and red meats
In research studies, people who were on the DASH diet lowered their blood pressure within 2 weeks.
Another diet -- DASH-Sodium -- calls for cutting back sodium to 1,500 milligrams a day (about 2/3 teaspoon). Studies of people on the DASH-Sodium plan lowered their blood pressure as well.
Starting the DASH Diet
The DASH diet calls for a certain number of servings daily from various food groups. The number of servings you require may vary, depending on how many calories you need per day.
You can make gradual changes. For instance, start by limiting yourself to 2,400 milligrams of sodium per day (about 1 teaspoon). Then, once your body has adjusted to the diet, cut back to 1,500 milligrams of sodium per day (about 2/3 teaspoon). These amounts include all sodium eaten, including sodium in food products as well as in what you cook with or add at the table.
Dash Diet Tips
- Add a serving of vegetables at lunch and at dinner.
- Add a serving of fruit to your meals or as a snack. Canned and dried fruits are easy to use, but check that they don't have added sugar.
- Use only half your typical serving of butter, margarine, or salad dressing, and use low-fat or fat-free condiments.
- Drink low-fat or skim dairy products any time you would normally use full-fat or cream.
- Limit meat to 6 ounces a day. Make some meals vegetarian.
- Add more vegetables and dry beans to your diet.
- Instead of snacking on chips or sweets, eat unsalted pretzels or nuts, raisins, low-fat and fat-free yogurt, frozen yogurt, unsalted plain popcorn with no butter, and raw vegetables.
- Read food labels to choose products that are lower in sodium.

To brag. Gloating usually involves bringing up someone else's failures, not just the gloater's successes.

Can you define these popular missing words?
Euphamistically kicking a man when he is down. Especially when you just beat him in some competition. Rubbing it in. Boasting in order to make the loser feel bad.
Jimmy beat Joe into second place and then proceeded to gloat about it.
por DeadMan 20 de Janeiro de 2004
An extremely wide, teethy smile. Often childish, and pretty much obnoxious and rude.
"That retard kept gloating everytime he laid eyes on me. I shoulda told him 'you're about two seconds away from wearing that smile around your ass'. But no, I'm a nice guy. Being a nice guy is actually a VERY difficult life, perhaps much harder than being a mean guy. Although it pays off, you have to be VERY patient too."

To brag about one's achievement's. Either it is his/her or their team.Even better when other peoples teams have failed and maybe even cheated miserably.

A major challenge for nearly every electronics firm today is how to handle the sharing of product information between cross-functional teams across organizational boundaries and even among partners and suppliers."
Here's something to chew on for ya bro...
While watching practice, qualifying, or races away from home, I have logged in on my brother's, my mother's, my buddy Paul's, my girlfriend's, my girlfriend's son's, and my nephew's computers. They have also used mine from time to time while at my house. So would that make their I'D's mine, and mine theirs? Jus' sayin'....tracikng IP addresses would reveal a inconsistency if not traced from that viewpoint.
In the past I have logged in with my Chase teams also...Dummy Hamlimbs (Gomer's Pile), Ben Dover (Faster 'n Faster), and Beatin' (Offconstantly)...would these be considered "fake" I'D's? I'm sure what you and your computer buddy are doing will reveal some pranksters, but you should realize it's just in fun in most cases. I have often wondered about some of the more hardened comments, seems there are a few screen-names that know a little more about me personally than I like. But hey, as long as it's all in the name of fun, who really cares? When I have something to say to someone, I use this ID, that just seems fair to me.

Bring it Mojo! It's not a secret people create two or three ID's so they can have multiple teams. So why wouldn't they come here under different names. What's the harm in the name of fun, like Si's alternate. Now if you want to prove who the Jackwads are and expose them then do it.
As for me, only one, good bad or ugly what you see is what you ask for.

Healthy Gagne is bad news for rest of League
In the Stanley Cup Playoffs, it could even multiply by two.
That's one reason why general manager Steve Yzerman traded for the veteran left wing in the offseason, dealing defenseman Matt Walker and a 2011 fourth-round draft pick for Gagne's services.
Gagne played a key role last season in helping lead the Philadelphia Flyers to their first Stanley Cup Final appearance in 12 seasons -- producing 9 goals, including 2 game-winners, and 12 points in 19 contests.
"He's certainly going to be an important guy for us," Boucher told NHL.com. "I know he's a big money player in the playoffs. He's our X factor heading into the playoffs and, no matter who we play, his experience will certainly be a big help.
"He's been to the World Championships, the Olympics and, just last year, he scored a number of important goals for his team to help them to the Stanley Cup Final."
In fact, Gagne returned from an 18-game absence from injury and scored the game-clinching goal in a 4-3 overtime victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Nov. 30. He recently saw a six-game scoring streak come to an end. In that streak he had 4 goals, 10 points and a plus-6 rating.
To those fans in Philadelphia, watching Gagne rebound from injury to play a significant role in the outcome of a big game is nothing new. Gagne had right-foot surgery last April 23, before returning to the lineup in the playoffs and scoring 7 goals in his first eight games back.
Since returning from his neck injury with the Lightning, Gagne has connected for 16 goals and 22 assists in 55 games.
"You can't look at his numbers at the start of the year," Boucher said. "He played injured because he didn't want to be out to start the season. He got injured in training camp. Over the last two years, he was basically known to be injured a lot, so he didn't want that to happen again and was hiding a neck injury that was really giving him major problems. He wasn't himself and everybody was wondering what was happening."
Gagne, 31, opened the season with no points and a minus-8 rating in six games.
"When he returned from the injury, he was a different player," Boucher said.
"It took a little bit of time for me to get going once I returned from my injury," said Gagne, who scored only 4 goals in his first 21 games upon being reinserted back into the lineup. "I have to make sure I finish strong in the playoffs now."
Gagne is finding some good chemistry with center Steven Stamkos these days. That has enabled captain Vincent Lecavalier to once again join forces with old buddy, Martin St. Louis, along with Nate Thompson.
"(Stamkos) isn't even near his prime yet and he'll only get better with time," Gagne said. "He's going to get stronger and it'll be fun to watch him for a long time."
So far, breaking up St. Louis and Stamkos has worked wonders for Boucher.
"It makes it tough for the opponent to match because you can't just concern yourself with St. Louis-Stamkos all the time," he said. "Now, you have to match St. Louis and Lecavalier on one line and Stamkos and Gagne on the other. It gives us more depth for the playoffs.
"Not to mention we are getting healthier at the right time."
Gagne is looking forward to all the excitement that comes with the Stanley Cup Playoffs -- this will mark his third straight postseason appearance and eighth overall.
"Once we're in the playoffs, we have a chance to win like everyone else and that's all we want," Gagne said. "I like what the team is doing."

"What A Pleasure it is to Degrade Women" – Robin Thicke
I liked this song when I first listened to it. It was upbeat and funky, new and interesting. And then one day I was listening to the song in my car and I heard a lyric that had me shocked. Did he really say what I thought he did?! When I got home, I Googled the lyrics just to make sure and I was disgusted. That song was "Blurred Lines" by Robin Thicke.
The message in the song nagged at me; I was so stunned that it was allowed to play on the air. I decided to Google if there was anything else out there about his lyrics. I was happy to find that I wasn't alone in my opinion that this song was completely degrading towards women!
I found an article from The Huffington Post. As I read it, it got even worse: the director of the song is a woman, who defended the song as fun, and even went as far to say that Robin didn't know what he was saying when he said:
"We tried to do everything that was taboo. Bestiality, drug injections, and everything that is completely derogatory towards women. Because all three of us are happily married with children, we were like, "We're the perfect guys to make fun of this. People say, "Hey, do you think this is degrading to women?" I'm like, "Of course it is. What a pleasure it is to degrade a woman. I've never gotten to do that before. I've always respected women." So we just wanted to turn it over on its head and make people go, "Women and their bodies are beautiful. Men are always gonna want to follow them around."
First, Robin Thicke admits that the song was meant to degrade women. HOW CAN THAT BE OK?!!! He says that he got approval from his wife before he did the song, saying that they wanted to have more fun in their lives. They could have written a song with the same beat and rhythm but with different lyrics don't you think?
It doesn't matter if he says he respects women, the song says differently and that is what the public hears. The lyrics- the message is blatant and clear as day. The lyric "I know you want it" says it all. The lines ARE blurred when No means Yes in the minds of men, young and old.
Furthering my research, I viewed the "clean" version of the video (because the original had the women naked and it was banned from YouTube) and I watched the women in the video perform. I wondered if they had any thoughts about the content and implications of the song beyond being seen in a music video. I wondered if any of them had daughters or nieces who would see that it is OK to be treated like an animal for profit. I wondered if they had any sons or nephews who would learn that it is OK to treat women as objects to own and control.
It isn't just a song. It is a statement with a huge and impacting message that women are objects to play with, to control, and to disrespect.
And Robin, it's your actions that speak your loudest truth, not what you say. Your video speaks volumes. To me, you are a misogynist and I pray that your three year old son learns differently.

The Namesake
by Jhumpa Lahiri
The Namesake Chapter 1 Summary
- It is August 1968. Ashima and Ashoke are in their apartment in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
- Ashima tries to make her favorite Indian snack, while Ashoke studies for his electrical engineering degree in the bedroom. Pretty standard domestic fare, right?
- Cue craziness: Ashima starts to go into labor. Yikes.
- The couple heads to the hospital, and after checking Ashima in, Ashoke heads to work. What? He's not staying for the birth?
- While talking with a nurse, Ashima uses an Indian English idiom, but the nurse thinks she has made an error, which reminds Ashima of how she met her husband. Here's the scoop:
- Some years ago, back in Calcutta, Ashima was a nineteen-year-old college student working as an English tutor.
- When Ashima's mother invited a bunch of potential suitors for Ashima over to the house, one of them turned out to be Ashoke, who came to the house with his parents in tow.
- In a moment that reminds us of Cinderella with a twist, Ashima saw Ashoke's shoes in the hallway, and couldn't resist trying them on before she met him.
- It's a memorable scene, that's for sure, and we guess the shoe fit, because here they are married. Ashima thinks back on that moment every Sunday, when Ashoke polishes his shoes. And apparently she's thinking of it now, while she's in labor with their first kid.
- Meanwhile, Ashoke has returned to the hospital at 4:30 a.m., where he paces the waiting room.
- His slight limp on his right foot reminds him of his accident. Fire up the flux capacitor, awesome readers, it's time for another trip back into the past:
- Back in India, he was on his way to visit his beloved grandfather, who had introduced him to the great works of Russian literature. His grandfather had recently gone blind, though, so he was going to give all his books to an eager Ashoke, who was on his way to pick them up. Instant library? Yes please.
- So, on October 20, 1961, Ashoke was on a train from Calcutta to Jamshedpur, and one of his compartment-mates was a middle-aged Bengali businessman named Ghosh, who encouraged Ashoke to travel the world.
- As Ashoke was reading Nikolai Gogol's "The Overcoat" in the early morning hours, the train crashed. Half buried under the rubble, Ashoke was nearly missed by the rescuers until a page from Gogol's short story caught their attention. Gogol to the rescue.
- After a year of recovery, Ashoke returned to college and graduated. We wonder if he ever got his hands on his grandfather's books. If not, can we have them, please?
- Having taken Ghosh's advice, Ashoke applied for graduate school at MIT. Time for some world travel. He only told his parents his intentions when he was awarded a fellowship, and it was too late for them to convince him not to go.
- In the midst of all these memories, a nurse walks in to the waiting room. Is he a proud papa, yet?

After flood, still a lot of work left in Green Mountain Falls
Nearly two weeks after a flood rushed through Green Mountain Falls, the town still has a lot of work to do. The damage put a damper on the Labor Day holiday.
On Monday, Gazebo Lake Park wasn't looking its best. The water in the lake was muddy and the playground was blocked off. There were fewer people than usual too.
"There doesn't seem to be as many people for a Labor Day weekend," park goer Stanley Gurule said.
The damage also affected nearby business The Pantry. Its owner had to close the back patio two weeks early, costing him about $35,000 in lost revenue. Now, he's cleaning up so he can reopen it next year. He has a lot of work ahead of him, but his customers are standing by him.
"They do bring their appetites and that's perfect," owner Ben Stephens said.
Stephens plans to open The Pantry for dinner indoors starting in November to help make up for his loss.

Faculty Notes
Brian Schaffner (political science), an analyst for Pollster.com, said in a Fox News post-election piece that most polling organizations were quite accurate in how they tracked the presidential election this year. "For a pollster, it comes down to bragging rights. If you were close you did good. There's a significant difference between a 5 to 6-point win and a 10-point win." He also was quoted in the Wall Street Journal, noting that national political polls that didn't dial cell phones were actually a bit more accurate than those that did.
BigDialog.org, a cross-partisan partnership of academics, bloggers, and e-communities, is run by the eCitizen Foundation in partnership with MIT's eCitizen Architecture Program, techPresident.com, Pajamas Media, blip.tv, change.org, voterwatch, UsefulArts.us, civics.com, and the National Center for Technology and Dispute Resolution, headed by Ethan Katsh (legal studies). BigDialogue.com is accepting video and text questions for President-Elect Obama as well as votes on current entries through early December, and they hope to see replies from the President-Elect in December. The questioners behind the top three questions wil be flown to MIT in mid-December, receive a tour of the MIT Media Lab, and engage in a networked event with the Obama transition team, subject to the terms and conditions found on the eCitizen Foundation's website.
The Department of Anthropology was well represented at the American Anthropological Association's annual meeting in San Francisco. Heidi Bauer-Clapp, was chair of and participant in "Using the Past to Understand the Future: Bioarchaeology and Forensics"; Siobhan Hart, was co-organizer of and participant in "Lost in Transition: Decolonizing Indigenous Histories"; Bob Paynter presented "The Four Fields of Anthropology through the Lens of Anthropological Archaeology," part of the Presidential Panel "Beyond Toleration and Lip-Service: Toward a Mutually Engaged Anthropology," and participated in the discussion of "Radical Archaeology as Critical Anthropology: Papers Honoring Thomas C. Patterson"; Martin Wobst was an invited discussant in "The NAGPRA: Triumphs, Trials and Tribulations"; Julie Woods and Elizabeth Chilton, co-authors of "Continuities and Changes in Native Ceramic Technologies in the Middle Connecticut River Valley, Massachusetts," presented an overview of their work.
The Chancellor's Budget Planning Task Force includes 14 faculty members appointed by the Faculty Senate. Among them are three from the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences: Mari Castañeda (communication), Robert Pollin, (economics), and Ralph Whitehead (journalism). Says Chancellor Holub, "While this committee is important, I want us to keep the lines of communication to the entire campus open, and I encourage you to share thoughts, reactions, ideas and suggestions going forward via the special budget website....We''ll be sharing these ideas with the committee and with others. It is critical that we all contribute to our institution's success. I know these are difficult times, but I do believe that together we can emerge as a stronger community and an even better university, and I'm encouraged by the passion and support that UMass Amherst has in its faculty, staff and students."
Students from UMass Amherst conversed with more than 100 Kurdish students over a video link from Iraq on Nov. 3, thanks to a project run by the Civic Initiative at the UMass Donahue Institute. Director and Visiting Scholar Michael T. Hannahan (political science) hosted the event in Iraq, where he was traveling from 10/26 through 11/9 to lecture at several univerisites, sponsored by the U.S. Department of State. Visiting Scholar Lonce Sandy-Bailey '06 PhD (political science) was on hand at UMass Amherst to direct the discussions. In addition to talking about the U.S. presidential election, there were comments and questions about the how long U.S. armed forces should stay in Iraq and whether Kurdistan should become its own country.

Reuters, 11/28/08. M.V. Lee Badgett (economics), director of the Center for Public Policy and Administration, says Massachusetts and Connecticut, which have legalized gay marriage, will receive an economic benefit from California's rejection of a gay marriage as the two states develop a niche market for same-sex marriages. Badgett estimates Massachusetts will see 32,200 same-sex marriages in the next three years, generating about $111 million in new economic activity.
Aljazeera.net, 11/23/08. Gerald Friedman (economics) comments in a story about the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Peru where U.S. President George W. Bush defended his reliance on free-market ideology. Friedman says the Chicago School of Economics, which is the ideological underpinning for Bush's economic views, has lost favor on Wall Street and that deregulation has been largely discredited. Aljazeera.net, 11/4/08. Friedman comments in a story about the decline in influence of the University of Chicago's economic ideology that has been a powerful force in U.S. government and business circles for the past several decades.
Dollars & Sense, 11/18/08. A column by David Kotz (economics) discusses how the current financial crisis will have an effect on ordinary people and how they conduct their lives. He says it is an opportunity to readjust the economy to a more realistic and productive model.
Alternet.org, 11/11/08. Gerald Epstein (economics) comments in a story about the "financialization" of the U.S. economy, where financial markets, institutions and motives are becoming an ever-larger and more important part of how we conduct business and trade.
PBS, 11/7/08. Emeritus Professor Sam Bowles (economics) is interviewed for the PBS program "The Business Desk" on what good can come from the current international financial crisis.

Wall Street Journal, 11/7/08. Pollin comments in a story about whether Barack Obama's campaign pledge to create many new jobs in the U.S. economy by spending large sums on green energy stands up to scrutiny. Pollin is working on a new study of the issue but argues that green industries create many more jobs than they displace.
New York Times, 11/06/08. In the article "Tolerance Over Race Can Spread, Studies Find,"about the election of Barack Obama, Linda Tropp (psychology), director of the Psychology of Peace and Violence Concentratio, says, "It's important to remember that implicit biases are out there, absolutely; but I think that that's only half the story. With broader changes in the society at large, people can also become more willing to reach across racial boundaries, and that goes for both minorities and whites." Tropp also says the willingness to be more tolerant has to be weighed against biases that remain in our society.
Boston Herald, Boston Globe, Christian Science Monitor, 11/6/08. Ray La Raja and Tatishe Nteta (political science) comment on Barack Obama's election as president. La Raja says Obama has learned from his friend Gov. Deval Patrick the value of getting his new administration organized as early as possible. Nteta says Obama's election will help eliminate racism in American society, but that change will still take time. What Obama's election does clearly signal, Nteta says, is that the old-style politics of racial identity as practiced by Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson no longer will work.
Poynter.org, 11/3/08. Steve Fox (journalism) is noted as one of the people organizing an electronic feed on the Twitter service to report on any voting irregularities around the country during voting in the national election.

Assuming Rooney actually declined to comment for the article because he knew he won the honor is fairly classy and typical of him and his great leadership. Then you see the other side of the spectrum with "said Jones, owner of the Cowboys" after every other quote. Does that guy shut up!
the only thing that Rooney should have said is that he's proud of his team, the city and to be mentioned among the other owners.
Yeah, he couldn't sent a shout out to his players but its okay. Rather him just continue to lurk in the background. After all, he props his players up, then you have a-holes like nutsack basically equating his comments to supporting woman beating of Harrison, etc...
No comment is good enough...ha.

My vote smartest defensive player would go to Ed Reed, he's almost always in the right place & reads plays well. That isn't meant to diss Troy, I just see Troy as a instigator of action, where Reed sets people up - two different styles, both with great results.

He goes beyond accepted sportsmanship & then tries to act all choir-boy afterwards (I'm just misunderstood!). I swear, if he makes it the HOF - when Donnie Shell can't get in - I'll never go there again, because that kind of behavior shouldn't be rewarded.

Their management is just as bad. ie: Dispatching loads late, never getting drivers home anywhere near on time. The average for me was 3 days to 10 days late.
Kevin Snead, my dispatcher at the time wanted me to spend the night with a haz mat load at the shipper so I could get the load delivered when HE wanted it. That load was 40, 000lbs +, the shipper wanted to shut thier gates as soon as I was loaded, had the placards on and called to check in the haz mat load. Then got mad at me because I went to the truck stop to scale and get my next year's permits faxed to me.I was in South Bend, Indianana. The shipper was on a 2 lane road in town.
That load should have been, according to the shipper, picked up the day before I got there.
Par for the course for SRT. The worst part was the dispatcher supervisor backs the dispatchers when they try & push drivers to do illegal things like that.

More children show up in American emergency rooms because of ATV injuries than bicycle mishaps, and a new study presented to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) attributes most of the injuries to lack of helmets, too many riders on one unit or riding the wrong size unit.
Children account for about one-third of the 130,000 to 150,000 ATV-related emergency department visits in the United States each year and one-quarter of the more than 800 deaths.
Two research abstracts presented today at the AAP National Conference and Exhibition in Boston, provide insights into the potential causes of ATV crashes and suggest safety precautions.
In the first study, "All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) Related Injuries: Mechanisms and Contributing Factors," researchers reviewed ATV injury data at the University of Iowa from 2002 to 2009. Of the 345 injury cases, 80 percent involved males, and 30 percent were age 16 or younger. Less than 20 percent of riders wore helmets (although drivers more likely than passengers to wear helmets, and children were more likely to wear them than adults).
Rollovers were the most common cause of injury, accounting for 42 percent of injury accidents. For patients older than 15 who were tested, 35 percent were positive for alcohol and 25 percent for drugs. Head injuries were the leading cause of ATV-related deaths.
All children treated for ATV injuries had been driving adult sized-ATVs, said Charles A. Jennissen, MD, FAAP, lead author of the study.
"The epidemic of ATV-related injuries can be attributed, at least in part, to the vehicles' increasing popularity," Jennissen said. "In 2008, the number of ATVs in the U.S. was estimated to be 10.2 million, greater than triple the number a decade earlier. A major factor in the burgeoning sales has been the production of bigger and faster machines. Some ATV models now weigh over 800 pounds and are capable of speeds over 80 miles per hour."
In addition, while most ATVs are designed for adults, children are often allowed to drive them, typically with unsafe behaviors such as no helmet or riding with passengers.
In a separate study, "Optimizing Seat Length Design to Minimize Extra Passengers on All-Terrain Vehicles," Jennissen looked at the potential outcome of shortening ATV seats, which while meant for just one person, are typically long enough to accommodate an additional passenger, particularly a child.
"We suggest that a shorter seat, starting further from the handle bar attachment is the preferred ATV seat design," said Jennissen. "This should discourage multiple passenger ATV use by reducing the space available for additional riders, and help decrease the number of ATV injuries."
The AAP does not recommend ATV use by children under age 16.

Me: 'Well… I would love to sit and listen to your fas-cin-ating theories about girls and boys and nature and God but I have a life and truthfully I can't bear to listen to another minute of witless half examined b.s. from another entitled national figure. G'night.'
That's not nice, but neither is being denied your legal equality by a person who has never given it any thought. The other line in her interview this week that really caught my attention was her insistence that gay marriage isn't a big deal. 'It's not a fundamental issue for me in the way that abortion is…' she said.
It's not an issue for you? For YOU? Well that's nice, and - gosh - that's an interesting way to identify and parcel out your religious and moral objections. Abortion bad; gays whatever?
Translated from the original Creighton, she is saying that gays are a problem or we wouldn't be having this conversation, but she is not herself gay so she doesn't care what happens to them quite in the way that she cares about something that could actually happen to herself, TO HER. Get it?
