Accidental vapor cloud explosion hazards are of great concern to the refining and chemical processing industry, and a number of catastrophic explosion accidents have had significant consequences in terms of injury, property damage, business interruption, loss of goodwill, and environmental impact.
And every year, many serious explosions and fires occur in industrial plants as a result of dust. Many materials form dust clouds that can easily ignite and explode, injuring personnel and damaging plant. This is a well-known phenomenon in the coal mining, grain storage, and the woodworking and paper industries. Many miners have been killed and injured and massive production losses have resulted from coal dust explosions in underground coal mining operations. Of the 129 grain dust explosions that occurred nationwide between 1987 and 1997, about half involved corn. Eleven were caused by wheat dust and 10 by dust from soybeans. Billions of tiny, highly combustible particles of grain are generated by grain kernels rubbing together as they move along conveyer belts and shifted between bins. Inside the enclosed chambers, those particles rise in a cloud. When the dust gets in with the right mixture of oxygen and comes in contact with a spark or even an overheated bearing on a conveyer belt, it is extremely explosive.Almost all organic material in the form of a dust cloud will ignite at temperatures below 500 oC - approximately the same temperature as a newly extinguished match. Cotton, plastics and foodstuffs such as sugar, flour and cocoa can also, under the right conditions, act as explosives. In order for a dust explosion to take place, the dust particles must be of a certain size and the amount of finely granulated material per unit of volume must lie within certain critical values. There is generally a direct correlation between particle size and explosive hazard. The smaller the particle, the more reactive the dust. As the materials become smaller, they disperse and remain suspended more easily, increasing the potential for ignition and propagation of the reaction. Industrial explosion prevention measures include, where possible, providing nitrogen gas purging to ensure that the oxygen concentration is kept below that required for combustion. For vapor cloud explosion there is a minimum ratio of fuel vapor to air below which ignition will not occur. Alternately, there is also a maximum ratio of fuel vapor to air, at which ignition will not occur. These limits are termed the lower and upper explosive limits. For gasoline vapor, the explosive range is from 1.3 to 6.0% vapor to air, and for methane this range is 5 to 15%. Many parameters contribute to the potential damage from a vapor cloud explosion, including the mass and type of material released, the strength of ignition source, the nature of the release event (e.g., turbulent jet release), and turbulence induced in the cloud (e.g., from ambient obstructions). TNT generates well over 4,000 psi overpressure in close proximity to the source of the explosion, along with significant radiant heat effects from the explosion's fireball. Conventional high explosive munitions also produce fragments from the munition case, as well as fragments from material in the target area that is broken loose by the high blast overpressures.
There are dramatic differences between explosions involving vapor clouds and high explosives at close distances. For the same amount of energy, the high explosive blast overpressure is much higher and the blast impulse is much lower than that from a vapor cloud explosion. The shock wave from a TNT explosion is of relatively short duration, while the blast wave produced by an explosion of hydrocarbon material displays a relatively long duration. The duration of the positive phase of a shock wave is an important parameter in the response of structures to a blast.Although the detonation combustion mode produces the most severe damage, fast deflagrations of the cloud can result from flame acceleration under confined and congested conditions. Flame propagation speed has a significant influence on the blast parameters both inside and outside the source volume.
The blast effects from vapor cloud explosions are determined not only by the amount of fuel, but more importantly by the combustion mode of the cloud. Significant overpressures can be generated by both detonations and deflagrations. Most vapor cloud explosions are deflagrations, not detonations. Flame speed of a deflagration is subsonic, with flame speed increasing in restricted areas and decreasing in open areas. Significantly, a detonation is supersonic, and will proceed through almost all of the available flammable vapor at the detonation reaction rate. This creates far more severe peak over-pressures and much higher amounts of blast energy. The speed of the flame front movement is directly proportional to the amount of blast over-pressure. A wide spectrum of flame speeds may result from flame acceleration under various conditions. High flame front speeds and resulting high blast over pressures are seen in accidental vapor cloud explosions where there is a significant amount of confinement and congestion that limits flame front expansion and increases flame turbulence. These conditions are evidently more difficult to achieve in the unconfined environment in which military fuel-air explosives are intended to operate.Based on the known properties of flammable substances and explosives, it is possible to use conservative assumptions and calculate the maximum distance at which an overpressure or heat effect of concern can be detected. Distances for potential impacts could be derived using the following calculation method [described in Flammable Gases and Liquids and Their Hazards]:

When you and I think of kings and kingdoms, more often than not what comes to mind are things grand and majestic: palaces, thrones, crown jewels- things like that. In today's gospel, however, Jesus describes his Father's kingdom in much humbler term- a mustard seed, a lump of yeast. Humble images for a humble God.
Let's face it: God's humility is a concept we can sometimes find difficult to grasp. As Mother Teresa once wrote," We can understand the majesty of Go, (but) it is very difficult to understand the humility of God."
We expect God to be powerful- and he is! As we profess in the creed, "We believe in one God the Father almighty." But we don't always imagine God being humble, do we? However, it's very important that we do.
Think of it this way: If we only knew God as all-powerful, would we really be able to believe that he is all-loving? Probably not, because in our experience power dominates, power corrupts, and power creates distances and barriers between one person and another.
That's why God has to remind us of his humility. We might say that God reveals the depths of his humility, so we might know the depths of his love- a humble love revealed in a manger, at an altar, and upon a cross.

Take a sneak peek at the new NIST.gov and let us know what you think!
(Please note: some content may not be complete on the beta site.).
We develop self-referenced mode-locked femtosecond lasers that function as the "gears" of optical clocks. The femtosecond laser clockwork is capable of phase-coherently linking optical frequencies to other optical frequencies and to the microwave domain with demonstrated fidelity below 1 part in 1019.
The self-referenced optical frequency comb, which our NIST/University of Colorado collaboration first demonstrated in 1999, ushered in a revolution in optical frequency metrology. The frequency comb made it possible to directly count optical cycles with femtosecond resolution using a compact and robust system, and it provided the last missing piece to the realization of all-optical clocks. The basic function of the frequency comb in an optical clock is to provide a phase-coherent link between the optical reference frequency at ~500 THz and the more accessible microwave domain. Using a mechanical analogy, we can imagine the frequency comb to be a one-step reduction gear. However, beyond connecting just the optical and microwave domains, it can just as readily measure the ratio of optical frequencies separated by 100's of terahertz.
In reality, the frequency comb is not a set of gears but is the evenly-spaced array of optical modes present in the output of a mode-locked femtosecond laser. From this perspective, the frequency comb is simply the Fourier-domain representation of the repetitive train of femtosecond pulses. The key feature is that the frequency νn of each mode can be simply described as νn = Nfrep + fo, where N is a large integer (~105 or 106), frep is the repetition rate of the laser, and fo is the carrier-envelope offset frequency, which is related to the difference of group and phase velocities inside the laser. Because both fo and frep are typically microwave frequencies on the order of 0.1-1 GHz, this expression shows the pathway to connecting optical and microwave frequencies. In practice, frep can be measured by detecting the optical pulse train on a photodiode, while measurement of fo typically requires an octave-spanning spectrum and nonlinear self-referencing. To realize an optical clock, the frequency comb is stabilized to a laser that is referenced to an optical atomic transition (νatom), and the detection of frep provides the down-converted optical frequency frep=νatom/N.
Our research in this area includes: (1) Building and evaluating specialized femtosecond mode-locked lasers (Ti:sapphire, Er:fiber, Yb:fiber, etc.) that must accurately function as a clockwork at and below the 10-18 level; (2) Developing the nonlinear optical systems and frequency control techniques to connect the frequency comb to the atomic references and to actively stabilize the mode-locked laser; and (3) Working together with other members of our group and division to realize optical clocks, evaluate their performance, and distribute their output to make physical measurements.

I'm having fun continuing my experiments in Adobe Creative Suite. This is a look I'd like to make for my Undecillion SS'15 collection, if it's in the cards for this year. Life is what happens while we're busy making other plans. My love is moving away and I have to pick up my courage and my stuff and find a new abode. The challenge of finding an affordable home in NYC is no small task, especially when I need studio space to do what I do best. Luckily, I get to move in with my brilliant cousin, Dr. Shiloh Whitney in a cute little place on the northernmost tip of Manhattan. It's looking like until the Undecillion studio finds a new space, or until Glinda the Good Witch swoops down and grants me all my dreams (investor, factory, warehouse), Undecillion may have to go on hold for awhile. But it will never die! Just rest.
3 responses to "Undecillion SS'15 Tennis Dress"
Oh sorry to hear, that must be somewhat disheartening. At least your staying positive and not allowing the current situation to hinder your dreams🙂 Is it possible to hire an external studio outside of your home where you could do you work? Or would that be too much?
Hey there! Thanks for the comment and concern. I'm thinking about looking into external studio rental spaces. It might be a nice change not to work from home anyhow. This way home can be a solely relaxing place for the first time in years! The money is always the challenge, but where there's a will, there's a way. I'm such a stubborn goat (Capricorn) when it comes to getting my way! And if I can't figure out how to make this ship sail right now, there's nothing wrong with delaying the dream until it makes a little more sense.🙂
You're welcome. That is a really clever idea! By separating the two from one another it'll allow you to set a great pattern, time table for the future… set in motion a great path for success. Clouding the two can make things super crazy; having your bed on one side and your sewing machine right beside you! It's just a dream differed for now, thats cool, very inspiring🙂

After breaking up with Kate Hudson, the New York Yankees stud Alex Rodriguez has recently hooked up with Cameron Diaz, which has infuriated Kate who was in a relationship with Alex from May to December last year.
Kate thinks Cameron is dating Alex to get revenge on her for hooking up with Justin Timberlake, Cameron's former boyfriend. The two blond beauties are now locked in a bitter battle to win over Yankee slugger, it has emerged.
The new issue of Us Weekly reports that the feud between Kate and Cameron began after the Knight and Day actress was seen leaving Alex's Central Park West penthouse with overnight bags on May 2, fuelling rumors that she was dating him.
Diaz dating A. Rod out of revenge?
It is believed that Cameron, 37, is sleeping with Alex, 34, to pay back Kate, 31, who started romancing Timberlake in January 2007, just days after Cameron split with him.
"Kate thinks it's payback, pure and simple," the New York Post quoted a source as telling Us Weekly.
Kate thinks Cameron is dating Alex to get revenge on her for hooking up with Justin Timberlake, Cameron's former boyfriend. The two blond beauties are now locked in a bitter battle to win over Yankee slugger.
But, Cameron thinks it's hilarious that Kate is mad at her for hooking up with Alex.
"Cameron was actually in a serious long-term relationship with Justin. She thinks it's a joke Kate would be mad. Kate is only upset because she hates being single," one of the actress' pals told New York Post gossip column Page Six.
Hudson is fuming
The magazine claims rivalry between the actresses reached an all-time, as Kate reportedly exclaimed that Cameron is an aging star who is trying hard to keep her youthful looks, struggling to keep sexy.
"Kate hates Cameron," an insider tells the magazine. "She's pissed Cameron is dating A-Rod."
"Kate thinks Cameron is an aging old-lady actress struggling to remain sexy and relevant," the source said.
The "Nine" star Kate dated A-Rod last year and was in every New York Game and also went to some of Alex's practice. According to an insider, Kate was so desperate for Alex that she even got breast implants post split to hold on to him, but it didn't work.
A-Rod and Diaz want to keep a low profile
Unlike Kate, Alex wants to keep his relationship with Cameron casual. The baseball star reportedly has banned Cameron from coming to his games because he wants to keep a low profile relationship.
"He doesn't want what happened to him and Kate to happen between him and Cameron. Kate was at every New York game and then some and even went to Alex's game practice. Things got too clingy, too fast," TVNZ quoted an insider as saying.
The trio's past relationships
Previously, A-Rod had reportedly dated Madonna and was believed to be partly responsible for the singer's divorce from Guy Ritchie.
Kate Hudson was previously married to Black Crowes singer Chris Robinson. Together they have a son, Ryder, 6. After divorcing Robinson, she had a two-year on-off relationship with actor Owen Wilson and was also linked with Lance Armstrong.
Before dating singer Justin Timberlake, Cameron Diaz was in relationship with video director Carlos de la Torre from 1990 to 1995.
She then began dating actor Matt Dillon, with whom she co-starred in "There's Something About Mary" and broke up with in 1998. She also had a relationship with singer/actor Jared Leto from 1999 to 2003.

ALAMEDA -- An expanded menu. A new wine market. New services. And a new name. All of that in the same building at Central Avenue and Oak Street that had been known as Angela's Bistro.
On Monday, chef Saboor Zafari and his family, friends and partners threw a grand opening bash to celebrate the grand opening of Cellar Door Café. The festivities also benefitted the Alameda Food Bank and the Alameda County Community Food Bank.
The chef isn't going anywhere. He is still stirring up the culinary treats, but he and his partners have undertaken a new business model -- the first of its kind in the Bay Area, according to one of the managing partners, Roy Creekmore.
"We're putting lot things in place to make the business more attractive to people," he said. "It's a restaurant with a wine market attached. There will be Ipads available for people to look at the wine list, and to see photos and get all the information.
"We had a lot of requests from people who wanted to get their meals sooner so they could get to the movie in time. We have shortened the time and are showcasing a larger menu with more items."
Zafari is enthusiastic about the changes, which include serving lunch seven days a week.
"I'm really excited about this," he said. "I think people will really enjoy the new services and menu."
He said the menu will also continue to offer many dishes that have turned out to be customer favorites.
Among the new small-plates fare will be house-made rosemary bread wrapped in bacon and sprinkled with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, pizzas, lobster poppers and meatball sliders.
The Alameda Vintners Club has a cooperative tasting room in the back of the restaurant. Carica Wines, Ehrenberg Cellars, R&B Cellars and Urbano Cellars are offering 100 different wines.
Wine flights include a wine from each winery. Customers will also be able to create their own flights and buy wines by the bottle, six-pack or case. Thursday and Sunday are free corkage days.
Barbara Brown of R&B Cellars said: "The result is superb wine with an approachable price tag."
"The dining experience will be more integrated with more small plates paired up with choices of wine," she said. "Today, people are asking for good wines to enjoy with small plates. The idea of having a salad, a full entrée and dessert is becoming passé. People are looking for more variety."

Under the PRA of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13, codified at 44 United States Code (U.S.C.) 3501-3521), Federal agencies must obtain approval from OMB for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor. This request for comment is being made pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA. Interested persons are invited to send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including any of the following subjects: (1) The necessity and utility of the proposed information collection for the proper performance of the NTSB's function; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology to minimize the information collection burden.
The NTSB Online Customer Satisfaction Survey will seek the public's feedback regarding a variety of aspects of the current NTSB Web site. In particular, the survey will solicit feedback concerning the public's satisfaction with the content of information on the Web site, as well as the presentation and organization of information that is available on the NTSB Web site. The survey will also ask the public for opinions regarding the overall utility of certain categories of the existing Web site. The survey will also seek responses to questions concerning ways to improve the Web site, such as whether the public would find it helpful to include certain information. In addition, the survey will ask for general comments regarding ways the NTSB can improve its Web site. Finally, the survey will inquire into whether respondents are affiliated with a particular group, industry, or profession, and how often respondents visit the NTSB Web site. All responses to the survey will remain anonymous, and the introductory text of the survey will request that respondents refrain from including any identifying or personal information.
The NTSB intends to use the feedback it obtains from this survey to improve the navigation, search capabilities, and information content on the NTSB Web site. The NTSB recognizes that Congress has directed the NTSB to provide transportation safety and accident-related information to the public, in the interest of improving transportation safety for the public. See 49 U.S.C. 1101-1155. Accordingly, the NTSB is aware of the importance of maintaining a Web site that is helpful to the public, and provides relevant, up-to-date information. Feedback from the public regarding the NTSB Web site will assist the NTSB in achieving this goal.
Respondents' participation in the survey is voluntary. The survey will only be available on the NTSB Web site, and the NTSB has carefully reviewed the survey to ensure that it has used plain, coherent, and unambiguous terminology in its requests for information and feedback. The survey is not duplicative of other agencies' collections of information. The survey will consist of seven questions, and imposes minimal burden on respondents: The NTSB estimates that respondents will spend approximately 10 minutes in completing the survey. The NTSB estimates that approximately 100 respondents will participate in the survey.

We are on the "Costa de la muerte", this is the trade of the "Percebeiros". Wearing diving suits, with only a rope for their safety, these men dive in the last place you would like to be seeing the ocean prove his power. They catch the "Percebe" a prized shellfish that here in Galizia grows with a superior quality.

One question here, what entries have been added as wildcards - std .com and
or have they also added a fake MX record, if not then there shouldn't be a
problem just check the domain for a valid MX record - if it doesn't have one
then refuse the mail.

UPDATE: 60 percent of Boy Scout delegates approve resolution to accept openly gay youths into ranks
Updated at 5:11 p.m.:
The resolution to accept openly gay youths into the Boy Scouts' ranks passed today with 60 percent of delegates supporting it.
A separate ban on gay adult Scout leaders remains in place because that policy was not under review.
"Today, following this review, the most comprehensive listening exercise in Scouting's history the approximate 1,400 voting members of the Boy Scouts of America's National Council approved a resolution to remove the restriction denying membership to youth on the basis of sexual orientation alone," according to a statement from the Irving-based Boy Scouts of America. "The resolution also reinforces that Scouting is a youth program, and any sexual conduct, whether heterosexual or homosexual, by youth of Scouting age is contrary to the virtues of Scouting."
When word came that the resolution had passed, a group of people who supported it broke out in cheers at Grapevine's Gaylord Texan Resort, where the delegates met.
They hugged one another. Many who had been holding their breath exhaled. And a few cried.
"My ears are ringing," said Alex Derr, a 19-year-old Eagle Scout. "I've been waiting for 4 or 5 years for this to happen. Everyone here has."
Jennifer Tyrrell, an openly gay mom who said she was a den leader before being kicked out because of her sexuality, spoke through tears. She said she first formed a petition to include gays last April.
"I just can't explain to people what it's like to have to look at your child and have to tell them people think you're not good enough," she said. "If I can save one person from having to do that, then I'm good."
Though the resolution won't allow her to be an openly gay leader for her 8-year-old son's troop, she said it was a "small step in the right direction."
John Stemberger, an attorney and Eagle Scout who opposed the resolution, had vowed to leave Boy Scouts of America if the resolution passed.
"Sex and politics have no business in the Boy Scouts of America and this decision will basically inject both of those topics directly into the veins of scouting," he said. "It will devastate it."
Read the full statement from BSA below:
Bsa Statement (Change) Final – 05-23-13 by The Dallas Morning News
Original entry:
Delegates to the Boy Scouts of America national meeting in Grapevine have begun voting on a proposed resolution that would remove the ban on openly gay boys participation in scouting.
The proposal would maintain BSA's prohibition against openly gay adults acting as volunteer scoutmasters or as paid staffers of the organization.
An estimated 1,400 delegates from across the nation have faced intense lobbying campaigns from advocates on both sides of the issue. The resolution's critics say acceptance of gay youth will destroy the BSA's
> longstanding commitment to traditional morality. but gay advocates and their supporters said its time for the BSA to end discrimination based on sexual orientation.
BSA's national headquarters in Irving is expected to release the result of today's vote sometime after 5 p.m. Dallas time

March 13, 2011 by Tim Brennan
Tim Brennan, childhood friend of Galahad Clark, talks to us about the resurgence of barefoot running and reveals the origins of VIVOBAREFOOT. In a series of articles he explains how he came to the idea of "hacking up" his Nikes in search of a truly barefoot shoe.One of the major landmarks was the barefoot cover story on Nature magazine in January 2010.That was the point where journalists started to bang the drum about barefoot running.But why now?Are the benefits of running barefoot a recent scientific discovery?Well the answer to that is absolutely not – the science is nothing new. The reason is Web 2.0.The barefoot running community is starting to become a power to be reckoned with thanks to social media websites such as YouTube, Twitter, blogs, Facebook, and others. No matter where you live, you are only a few mouse clicks away from being part of a movement that stands for more than improved running times, or less injuries. It stands for a revolution against the social norms that say you can't take off your shoes. It stands for breaking away from religiously buying the next greatest cushioned sole that never lives up to all the hype. It stands for running for running sake — the way nature intended. It stands for freedom of choice as much as anything.Yet having said that, the biomechanic advantages are nothing short of massive - in my own personal case it was the difference between being able to run and not.
The best way for me to explain is by telling my own story.
My name is Tim Brennan and I live in London, UK. I am the inventor of the VIVOBAREFOOT shoe which was launched in March 2004. My "barefoot shoes", as I call them, were not just an attempt to make some money from a passing fad. Truth be told, they actually were never designed for anyone else but myself. So why did I invent the VIVOBAREFOOT shoe? At the age of 12, I took up tennis and shortly after was playing for several hours every single day. Literally every single day. Year in year out. On the rare occurrences that I wasn't able to play, I had withdrawal symptoms. When not on a tennis court I was daydreaming about tennis. When I was on court all I wanted to do was hit the ball like Andre Agassi and win. I really hated losing which is still a hard habit to kick . So all was going well until around the age of 15 when I started suffering repeated twisted ankles on court. Each injury would mean several weeks of not being able to play and it was miserable. It kept happening over and over — around a dozen or so times from 1992-2000. Solving this injury became an urgent mission, and my tennis life depended on it.
I remember one particular day very well. Rather making a shoe from scratch, I decided to replace the sole unit of a regular sports shoe with a thin flexible material so it would still look passable for playing tennis tournaments. And so the hacking up of old trainers began. It was with the greatest satisfaction, I took a sharp scalpel and cut off the cushioned sole of my old Nike Air Huaraches. Like a surgeon cutting out diseased tissue, I made neat incisions to leave the upper perfectly intact. Next I had to find a suitable substitute. Something thin. Something flexible. And then I found it, Bingo!
I took the soles that I had just cut off, placed them on a yellow vinyl tennis racket sleeve, and began dr

knitting with thin yarn
I bought some yarn that is almost as thin as thread to make a shawl with. I've tried to start a number of times, but it looks like a snarled mess each time. Is there some trick to using this type of yarn? I'm using size thirteen needles, too. I seem to have an easier time with smaller needles.
If you tell us the name of the yarn and give a link to the pattern (if you're using one) it helps when asking questions.
If you are not using a pattern you might want to try using smaller needles. That's awfully large even for lace. What stitch are you doing?
It is just knits and yarnovers. Cast on three stitches. Then knit, yarnover, knit, till you get 40 stitches. I am at work so I don't have the yarn label in front of me. I'll have to repost with that information.
Okay, it sounds like you're making a triangle shawl/scarf. If you're using fingering or lace weight yarn size 13 needles is probably a bit large and makes it more difficult. I knit a lacy scarf recently and use fingering weight and a size 8 needles.
Another thought is what material the needles are. If they are metal fine yarns are harder to knit at first. A lot of people find that using wood is easier for yarns like that, but it does depend on the fiber, too.
I don't like using metal needles, so I'm already using wood. I'll try the smaller needles. Everything looked so messy and the stitches didn't seem to be the same size. I wonder if I am up to this! I'm going to check the yarn label when I get home.
Your uneven stitches may be due to the needle size. When the stitches are loose they have more of a tendency to move around. You may be able to block it when you're done to even them out some, too.
Size 13 US or UK? A UK 13 is the equivalent of a US 1 so that should be okay. A US 13 though is just a bit too large, try a US 8 and that will make it lacey.
The yarn is Plymouth Fantasy Naturale 100% cotton.
I'm using US 13. It is so hard to knit that yarn. It doesn't look even no matter how tight or loose I try to knit.
Well the 13s aren't going to help much. Try a size 5 to 8 needle and see if that's better. You do want a loose knit for a shawl, not tight like you would for socks or even a sweater.
eta - Oh, if it's a worsted weight, then maybe go for an 11, a 13 can work for a lacier look though. Also, wash and lay out what you've got knitted, that will even out the sts.

From the very moment it launched last April, Super Adventure Box was an immediate hit. The 8-bit style graphics, quirky sound-effects, and retro platforming action provided players with some of the most engaging and memorable content to date. Now, after what seemed like an eternity, Super Adventure Box is back with even more content than before. Check out the press release below, then dig into the gallery by clicking on the banner above.
Super Adventure Box originated as an April Fools' Day joke earlier this year, but quickly became a fan favorite with its pixelated 3D graphics, retro music and nostalgic gameplay that stirred memories of video games from yesteryear. Designed in-game by Moto, a crafty asura, to be a virtual reality simulator to educate the younger generation, Super Adventure Box will take players back to school with new and more difficult challenges.
Players can get an early look at the update by joining a livestream with ArenaNet developers on Tuesday, Sept. 3, at noon (PDT) on the Guild Wars 2 Twitch channel: http://www.twitch.tv/guildwars2.
New Events
- Continued Education: Players can continue their studies by going deeper into World 2, traveling through the Rapids, Pain Cliffs and Storm Top, where they'll meet their lethal final exam in the form of the Storm Wizard. Unlocking new items and upgrades along the way will be the key to getting ahead.
- Tribulation Mode: Moto's newest challenge teaches resilience and non-linear thinking. Players will learn that life isn't easy in this new, ridiculously difficult mode for all zones in Worlds 1 and 2.
- Super Weapon Set: Players can acquire a stylish new look for their weapons by trading in Bauble Bubbles to earn the rest of the Super Weapon Skins.
- King Toad and Storm Wizard Weapons: Showing their prowess in Super Adventure Box, players will earn the materials necessary for King Toad and Storm Wizard weapons.

- Craft Ascended Weapons: New recipes and materials will be hidden around the world, and a new skill cap of 500 will be introduced for the Weaponsmith, Artificer and Huntsman crafting disciplines. Players crafting their way to 500 will become Grandmaster Crafters and can learn the secrets of crafting Ascended weapons.
- Legendary Weapon Updates: Legendary weapons are getting a stat boost and an Offensive Infusion slot to align with the new Ascended weapons! Legendaries are also receiving additional functionality: When out of combat, Legendary weapon bearers will be able to choose between different stat combinations for your weapon. And to top it all off, many Legendaries are getting some aesthetic upgrades!
- Account-Wide Magic Find: We're removing Magic Find as an equipment stat. Instead, your Magic Find will now be an account-wide bonus that applies to all of your characters. You can boost your account's Magic Find using Essences of Luck, which can be earned by salvaging Fine or Masterwork items.

As the Raiders look to establish an identity roughly similar to the New York Jets, the clock is running.
It is only Week 3, but Sunday's sold-out home opener at O.co Coliseum brings with it both an opportunity for success and a stark reality of a rough road ahead in the event of failure.
"That's our stadium, our fans, this is our city, and we need to protect it," Raiders coach Hue Jackson said. "It's time for the Raiders to rise up and play. The time is now."
While it's too early to suggest "now or never," the Jets (2-0) might present the most favorable matchup over the next three games. The Raiders (1-1) host New England next week with a road assignment in Houston to follow.
With quarterbacks Tom Brady and Matt Schaub, the Patriots and Texans are even better at attacking with the pass than Buffalo, a team that picked apart the Raiders and scored touchdowns on five straight possessions en route to a 38-35 Week 2 win.
The Jets' attack, as personified by coach Rex Ryan, is more to the Raiders' liking in that they seek to establish physical superiority on both sides of the ball. May the toughest team win.
"That's the way we like to play the game, so I feel like they're playing into our hands in terms of running the ball at us," defensive tackle Richard Seymour said.
"It will be a big-boy pad game," defensive tackle Tommy Kelly said.
The last time the Jets were in Oakland on Oct. 25, 2009, they rushed for 316 yards and beat the Raiders 38-0, the worst home loss in franchise history. Shonn Greene gained 144 yards, Thomas Jones 121 and the Jets kept the ball for nearly 36 minutes.
Five defensive starters and four others who didn't start but are prominent players on defense for the Raiders this season get a second crack at the Jets. Jones has been replaced by LaDainian Tomlinson and the Jets have just 146 yards rushing in their first two games, but they aren't likely to abandon their core philosophy after two wins.
The Raiders are convinced they're a much different team defensively, represented more accurately by the first six quarters of their season against Denver and the first half against Buffalo before the second-half meltdown at Ralph Wilson Stadium.
They like their chances of shutting down the run and putting the game in the hands of quarterback Mark Sanchez, making sure he's in no position to relax with a hot dog with the game in the bag in the fourth quarter, as he did in 2009.
The question is whether the Jets will look hard at the Raiders' difficulties stopping Buffalo and attempt to spread out their offense, looking to get Sanchez throwing quick passes to wide receivers Santonio Holmes and Plaxico Burress.
Asked if he thought the Jets would go that route based on what happened to the Raiders in Buffalo, defensive coordinator Chuck Bresnahan said, "Wouldn't you? We're expecting some of the same things, but I do know Rex's mentality is a physical, no-B.S. type of deal, and they're going to try and establish the run game on us as well."
In contrast to the 2009 game when the Raiders were anemic on offense behind quarterback JaMarcus Russell, they're much better equipped to deal with an elite Jets defense. New York will provide different looks from its 3-4 defense, blitz often and rely on the coverage skills of corners Darrelle Revis and Antonio Cromartie.
Quarterback Jason Campbell, who has given the Raiders some of their best play at quarterback in years over the last seven games, is emphasizing staying out of second-and-long and third-and-long plays.
"We've got to stay on schedule," Campbell said. "We've got to stay out of long down-and-distance plays. We've got to control the penalties. I think guys understand it's the Jets coming in here, we're coming off a loss and we want to get that sour taste out of our mouth.
"We've got a tough schedule the first quarter of the season, and we've just got to go out and play."

10 shows that brought North Texas to the small screen in a big way in 2013
The Voice: This year on NBC's popular singing competition we saw three different but quite talented performers join the show. Arlington's Brandon Chase brought some country and was part of Blake Shelton's team. University of North Texas student Tamara Chauniece added some soul and a powerful voice to Cee-Lo Green's team. But it was Dallas' Nic Hawk who stood tallest among them, remaining in the competition for a bit longer and making quite the impression for his flirting ways with coach Adam Levine.

Standardizing, streamlining and simplifying business
New ways of doing business mean simplified processes for providers. As a result of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), you will begin to see some business changes in how you access, submit and receive information from Wellmark.
Access to electronic registration forms
Available in the fourth quarter of 2013, an updated electronic funds transfers (EFT) enrollment form and a new electronic remittance advice (ERA) enrollment form will be accessible to providers on the secure provider page at Wellmark.com. These updated and new forms mean providers can quickly and easily access and submit requests to Wellmark electronically.
When available, the updated EFT and ERA online forms will help you easily request:
EFT and ERA reassociation
In addition to the new EFT and ERA forms, the ACA requires carriers to apply a trace or tracking number to the ERA and the associated EFT. Since the EFT and the ERA are sent to the provider separately, the trace or reassociation number will allow you to efficiently match the payment to the ERA and eliminate the need for costly manual reconciliation.
Standardized reporting on ERA
The ERA explains the payment a provider receives for a service claim. If a service is denied or the payment adjusted, the ERA contains the required explanations in the form of Claim Adjustment Group Codes (CAGC), Claim Adjustment Reason Codes (CARC), and Remittance Advice Remark Codes (RARC). The Committee on Operating Rules for Information Exchange (CORE) has established a minimum set of CORE defined claim adjustment/denial business scenarios and a maximum set of CORE required CARC/ RARC/CAGC combinations for each scenario. The necessary system changes to align with these CORE defined scenarios will be completed by Wellmark in November 2013.

SEBRING — The Nigerian Scam, the Grandfather Scam, Mystery Shopping Scams, foreign lotteries and sweepstakes...
The list of fraudsters looking to make a quick buck out of unsuspecting victims goes on, and no one knows that better than Nell Hays, Highlands County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman, who has been a crime prevention specialist for 14 years.
While some of the scams have become fixtures - aka The Nigerian Scam where someone overseas claims to be in distress, often through an email in very stilted, tell-tale English - there are some complaints reported in recent days, which may raise eyebrows for sheer chutzpah.
In the latest scam alert, the sheriff's office is warning residents about receiving complaints from people who have received a call from someone claiming to be a lieutenant with the Highlands County Sheriff's Office.
The caller tells folks they have missed jury duty and a warrant has been issued for their arrest, Hays explained.
"They continue to say that if you call 863-464-0669 (they have recorded the answering machine to say Highlands County Sheriff's Office) and authorize a charge of $350 to your credit card, we will not send a deputy to arrest you," the sheriff's office's Facebook alert warns.
Hays tells people who encounter situations like this to stop, consider and use some common sense: Those who miss jury duty will not be notified by phone, and if a warrant is issued for someone's arrest, they cannot pay on a credit card and get out of it.
While this might seem a wild scam born out of someone's active imagination, it turns out it's not new.
"We have seen this scam previously, however, this is the first time that the scammers have identified themselves as Highlands County Sheriff's Office members," the sheriff's office said. "So far they have used the names of Lt. Anthony Smith and Lt. Carl Jones, but this may also change."
Scams may be recycled now and then with variations, but they are all the same, Hays maintained.
"They might be a little different but they're still the same scam," she said. "It might be a Lexus instead of a Mercedes."
She has a three-point rule to identity scams:
If it is too good to be true, it is. "You don't win a lottery you didn't enter. If you have to pay ahead to receive a prize, it is a scam," she said.
There is a sense of urgency. You are told to do it today. The scammers talk fast; they get you upset, Hays said.
There is a sense of secrecy.
Her advice to folks is not to get upset or nervous when they encounter such situations and use basic common sense.
Lake Placid Police Chief James Fansler said the most recent complaints they have received is about someone claiming to be with Duke Energy, who has been calling restaurant owners and trying to get them to pay their power bill before they come and shut the power off.
"Some owners have been directed to obtain a Green Dot card to pay the balance," he said. "Duke Energy does not accept payment via Green Dot cards."
He reiterated what Hays said: "My advice to everyone is to take a second and think about what the caller is saying and what they are requesting."
If it is the Duke Energy scam, he asks residents to ask themselves these questions: Do they have Duke Energy as their provider and is their bill up-to-date? Hang up and call Duke Energy to verify the information, he advised.
"Be suspicious of all calls that indicate any need for payment or request for donations. Only donate to reputable organizations," he said. "Not every call asking for cancer research donations is legitimate. Be careful where you send your money. When in doubt, contact your local law enforcement agency."
While scammers target people of all age groups, the elderly seem to be especially vulnerable, Hays said.
Stephenson-Nelson Funeral Home Sebring director Mike Adams said he has heard of cases locally where folks have gotten calls from scammers looking through obituaries and obtaining information about family members of those recently deceased.
A recent widow or widower may be contacted by someone claiming their spouse bought a life insurance policy, which is behind a couple of payments. If they are paid up, they are told, they will be able to claim the insurance policy.
"It's tragic," Adams said.
It's a very vulnerable time for the grieving spouse, he said, and it's not greed that may make them prey but that "they are grieving and they are still trying to process information."
Not surprisingly, Florida has the highest rate of fraud and identity theft complaints per capita, according to the Consumer Sentinel Network, an online database of consumer complaints nationwide.
Hays asked those who have become a victim of identity theft or have lost money in a scam to file a report with a law enforcement agency.
But those who have been solicited by a scammer can file an online complaint at http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx
The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) is a partnership between the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the National White Collar Crime Center.
The IC3 accepts online Internet crime complaints from either the victim or from a third party to the complainant.
Hays said the local sheriff's office has worked with IC3 investigators on sting operations but could not elaborate.
On May 10, the center received its 3 millionth consumer Internet crime complaint.
The center builds the complaints it receives into referrals, and forwards them to local, state, federal and international law enforcement agencies for more investigation and, eventually, prosecution.
"In addition to helping law enforcement build cases for prosecution, the IC3 uses the complaint information to detect emerging trends and proactively increase public awareness of the Internet fraud," the center adds on its web site.

Most Ben and Jerry's ice creams contain traces of alcohol (check the ingredients list on the website).
Does this make them haraam? If you judge on intentions- people don't eat ice cream to get high.
Please correct me if I'm wrong; i've been told that all fruits start to ferment once they have dropped off the tree. This means fruits also contain traces of alcohol.
I'm not an ice cream fanatic and trying to find an excuse to eat Ben and Jerry's (I haven't since I found out) but rather want to increase my knowledge insh'Allah.

It's hard to gaze toward the sports pages this week and not have an opinion on the 'horror tackle' saga that has reared its ugly head at the wrong moment for both Gareth Bale and Charlie Adam. While some will side with the Scotsman, feeling that he has been unfairly persecuted, others will, in equal measure, side with the Welshman, who believe that the word 'friendly' has been ignored and that the challenge was agenda-driven. Regardless of who was right or wrong, if anyone, this story will not have been well received by either party. Bale is under pressure from many on these shores after pulling out of the Team GB squad through injury, only to then play a major part in Tottenham's pre-season matches. Meanwhile, Charlie Adam is in serious danger of slipping down the pecking order at Anfield. This coverage has condemned him even further, which subsequently decreases his popularity, which has been dwindling in any case given his distinctly average performances for Liverpool in his debut season. The question will have to be answered as to whether Adam can suitably perform at such a consistently high level and if his future lies at Liverpool.
Making his mark on the English game seemed to come easy to Adam. Having moved to Blackpool from Rangers in the summer of 2009, the Scotsman shined brighter than his new hometown's renowned pleasure beach. Appearing to be a class apart from the majority of the Seasiders, praise was heaped his way that indicated a big money move could be on the horizon. However, were we all deceived? With the greatest respect to Blackpool who impressed immensely in their short stint in the top flight, Adam may have been a big fish in a small pond. His influence on the club was notable but for a team as successful and demanding as Liverpool, his affect seems absent. Many of his most memorable moments in Tangerine were by-products of his set piece strength, often using his unquestionably good left foot to steer free kicks right into the stanchion, with penalty taking also providing similar success. However, despite the value of dead ball situations nowadays, Adam cannot be left to linger at Liverpool just in lieu of his set piece abilities. There are other players at Liverpool who have as much success with a dead ball as Adam, who are better overall players. The Scotsman lacks pace, a key attribute when asserting oneself in a Premier League midfield. His sense of positioning is also somewhat questionable, often being caught languishing way up the field and subsequently having to illegally stop a player with greater pace. Adam's success at Blackpool may be down to confidence. He was the talisman of the Tangerines; their star player. Moving to Liverpool where a number of high performing, justifiably egocentric players ply their trade, may have disenchanted the 26-year-old.
The future of Charlie Adam lies in the Brendan Rodgers bible of tactics that all football supporters would love to take a glimpse at. Should the new man at the helm decide that Anfield still has a place for Adam, that place is most likely to be the bench. The man who promised so much and delivered… not so much, may be better off reigniting his career at a club where he can shine and become the local hero. He may just have to wait until the 'horror tackle' demonising fades into the background, but once this becomes chip paper, he may seek out a new home that will welcome him with open arms. It probably won't be Spurs though…
Liverpool fans, have your say. Do you think Adam has a chance to excell next season? Is he good enough for your team? Let me know on twitter @mattpegg1
I said we didn't want him before he was bought. He has shown exactly his talentless football and thug-like tackling. That said I expect the wrong decision to be made and he be kept. LFC you have been, yet again , warned! Get rid of this waste of space.
agreed..get shut…not good enough…not athletic enough and never will be…
I agree with the chunk… Get rid of this waste of space and also spearing, while you're at it!!! Give big andy a chance and he'll come good
you said did ya
How many time do we want to dialogue on Adams..we dont want him anymore,offload him alongside wit downing,herderson,caroll,pacheco..thanks
i hope for liverpool sake he prove you all wrong…he did it at blackpool why not at liverpool, not giving up on any player that still wearing our shirt.
Tend to agree with Jamaican red. Adam is ok. He was Liverpool's best player (and worst!) at times last season and our results really went downhill when he was injured. All this 'get rid of him' talk about last years signings is tiring and incredibly
Charlie makes an OK squad player,rather him stay and try to fight for a place in the team than sell him off only to buy another mediocre player at an inflated price!!!rather the devil u know…..
play him left back, yeah, left back at Melwood that is…
Listen, Adam is a exceptional player with the best left foot in the EPL. And I bet this time next year he will be on his way to becoming a lfc legend! He needed a season to settle in. When I watched the Roma game he was running the game!
You didnt watch the roma game very closely did you?.??
Adams has been awful in the pre season games, giving balls away, missing tackles etc. etc. hes a reserve grader at best
Charlie will storm it this year!! Release the shackles of pressure and watch him tear up other teams!!!

Free throw from LaShawna Turner helps SHS get win
KENNETT -- After suffering a tough loss last Thursday to Poplar Bluff, Sikeston head coach Homer Jackson had full confidence that his team would respond and bounce back the next time the Lady Bulldogs took the court.
On Monday night, they had their opportunity to do just that as the quest to get back into the win column took them on the road to face the Kennett Lady Indians.
With 7.4 seconds left on the clock and the potential game to be decided at 51-48, Sikeston's LaShawna Turner admitted she had her doubts while stepping up to the free throw line.
"We told her that the best they could have done with a three was tie us," Jackson said. "If she could make one of the two free throws then it would make it a four point game and we would be in control."
Although nervous, the junior guard looked calm as could be with the chance to seal the victory as she hit the first of two free throws, consequently giving her team a two possession lead. This was all the Bulldogs needed as they held on to the 52-48 final.
"I really didn't think I was going to make the free throws," said Turner. "All of the loud noise had me shook up for a minute. But when I saw it go in I knew the game was over with and it was a relief."
While Sikeston managed to pull out their fourth win of the season, the Lady Bulldogs made things far from easy for themselves in the game.
After jumping out to a 15-point lead by halftime, 35-20, a slow third quarter found the Lady Indians right back in it as they battled their way to only an eight point deficit heading into the final quarter, 40-32.
"We told them in the locker room, 'girls expect them to make a run and then be able to withstand it,'" Jackson said. "We knew they were gonna score. The important thing was for us not to lose our composure and allow ourselves to be put in a position to counter.
"I think the girls responded well to that tonight and really did a good job."
Sikeston seemed to regain control of the game in the fourth quarter as they paced themselves to a 10 point lead with one minute remaining.
However, the Lady Indians were not quite ready to throw in the towel as an improbable comeback attempt was initiated after freshmen guard Jerica Wheeler took a rebound coast-to-coast for the home team. Cutting the lead back down to eight, the Kennett press then found a way to come up with a steal which ended up in the hands of 5-9 junior Hope Sparks who launched a deep 3-pointer to cut the lead to five with 32 seconds left remaining.
"Kennett is a good team, they weren't gonna lay down and roll over for us and I thought that showed great character," said Jackson. "Even though they were down, they made some tremendous shots there at the end."
Sparks wasn't finished though as another Bulldog turnover allowed the junior to get off another 3-pointer which once again found the bottom of the net, electrifying the home crowd as the clock continued to whine down at the 18 second mark.
"Hope got hot all of the sudden and it really sparked us," said Kennett head coach Casey Bunting. "She came in and hit those 3's back-to-back and brought us right back into the game."
Unfortunately for the Lady Indians, the exciting last minute rally would soon come to an end after the Turner put the game out of reach.
"We just had such a big hole to dig out of from when we started the game. Once we started working as a team, we really made some progress," Bunting said. "But sometimes it's hard to cut a deficit when you coming from so far back.
"I am really impressed with my girls' performance. They've been battling all season and they came out tonight, worked hard and I'm just really impressed with them tonight."
Kennett was lead by Jessie Greenway with 12 points and two 3-pointers while Sparks followed close with 11 and two 3-pointers of her own. Wheeler also chipped in 10.
Sikeston was lead by a slew of players in the winning effort. Monika Gray-El (18 points), Amber Minner (16), Krystal Henson (8) and Turner (8) all contributed well in what Jackson describe as a picture perfect first half.
"We started off just dominating which we haven't done yet so that was great," said Minner. "They got some 3's off towards the end but kept the lead so that's all that matters.
"I just think we played great as a team and we all did well tonight."
The Lady Bulldogs (4-10) will be back in action tonight when the host the Delta Lady Bobcats. Tip-off will be tossed at 6 p.m.

Advance 66, Scott Central 50
ADVANCE - Zach Hudson scored 20 points to lead the Advance Hornets to an 18-7 record and a 66-50 victory over the Scott County Central Braves Friday night.
Hudson scored eight of his points in the fourth period as the Hornets outscored Scott County 20-14 in the frame to put the game out of reach. With the score tied 12-12 after one frame, Hudson tallied seven in the second as Advance built a 27-24 lead at the intermission.
"I felt like we got off to a slow start, but our pressure defense created a lot of offense for us," Advance coach Jim Hall said. "We just pushed the ball at them pretty hard on offense and got the ball inside to Hudson quite a bit."
In the third, Jared Ritter put in six of his 18 points to help the Hornets go up 46-36 heading into the final eight minutes of play.
Tyler Bowman added 10 points in the victory.
Next up for the Hornets is a home game against Leopold this Friday at 6 p.m.
It is the last regular-season game for Advance, who is the top seed in next week's Class 2, District 2 Tournament to be held at Poplar Bluff's Black River Coliseum.
WOODLAND - The Woodland Cardinals defeated Richland 61-39 Friday night as Travis Benfield poured in 27 points and Cody McCraw added 10 in the victory.
Scott McGarity led the Rebels with 11 points on the night, while Blake Waters added nine in the loss. Woodland pulled out a 46-45 win in the junior varsity contest.
PERRYVILLE -- Notre Dame's boys basketball team won't have to worry about practicing free throws going into the district tournament next week after attempting 50 in a 84-58 win at Perryville Friday night.
The Bulldogs (18-7) went 38 of 50 from the free throw line in a game in which both teams were riddled with foul trouble.
Despite the lopsided score, Perryville (5-19) led 16-15 early in the second quarter. The Bulldogs, who were playing without Tyler Cuba, ran into early foul trouble. With several starters on the bench, Notre Dame was able to fight back and led 38-27 at halftime.
"I think the other guys did a good job stepping up," Notre Dame coach Darrin Scott said.
The Bulldogs blew the game open in the third quarter, pushing their lead to 25 midway through the period. Scott said the defense did a good job sticking to its game plan.
"We really tried to contain their penetration," he said. Bryce Willen led the Bulldogs with 19 points. Travis Siebert added 10.

CHAFFEE -- Oran hit nine 3-pointers during a romp on the road. Nathan Seyer led the Eagles (18-6) with 21 points. Ryne Wood added 11.

Scott City 78, Senath 55

The Rams (14-6) also got 14 points from Jeremy Schlosser and 11 from D.J. Walton.
DELTA -- Hot-shooting Leopold rolled to a 40-18 halftime lead and routed host Delta.
The Wildcats received 20 points from Kevin Holzum, 19 from Josh Van de Ven and 15 from Paul Hutchings.

College of Engineering Students Excel in Robotics Competition
A new undergraduate course in robotics is already "paying dividends," according to Computer and Information Science Professor Ramprasad Balasubramanian, who advised two student teams to second and fourth place showings at the 2008 IEEE International Conference on Technologies for Practical Robot Applications (TePRA) Robotic Competition.
Date: January 29, 2009
Department: College of Engineering
The contest, held in Woburn, was sponsored by iRobot. Competitors designed a target detection computer program to operate an iRobot Create. The object of the contest was to see how many beacon targets the autonomous robot could find without colliding with obstacles. Several teams vied in the double-elimination, head-to-head competition using an 8 by 16 foot space and five minute time limits.
Computer science majors Matthew Donoughe, a junior from Uxbridge and Kevin Cormier, a senior from Fairhaven, comprised the second-place team. Computer engineering majors Julian Plante of New Bedford and Nick Savery of Franklin finished fourth. Significantly, they bested teams from iRobot and Worcester Polytechnical Institute (WPI), which has a recognized robotics research laboratory.
"These results are a testament to how bright and well prepared our students are at UMass Dartmouth," said Balasubramanian. "It's a clear sign we are doing something right here."
The results were especially heartening because this was UMass Dartmouth's first attempt at this type of competition. Balasubramanian said that the experience served as a "stepping stone," for planned, future contests.

War and Peace
by Leo Tolstoy
War and Peace Volume 2, Part 3, Chapter 6 Summary
- As he gets into more and more of the busywork of daily life in Petersburg, Andrei starts to stress about the fact that everything he's doing there is meaningless and that he doesn't have to time to ponder deep thoughts.
- He's really into Speransky, though. Speransky also knows how to work Andrei, making him feel like they are the only two smart people in a sea of idiots. Andrei laps that stuff right up.
- Mostly Andrei goes along with everything Speransky says, but there are a couple things that bother him: 1) Speransky is contemptuous of most other people; and 2) he is so logical that he's almost like a robot defending his arguments. It's all reason, all the time, with no space for things that Andrei believes are above reason – the great unknowables, the mystical and the spiritual.
- But still, Speransky appoints Andrei to head part of the legislative commission, meaning that he gets to work on the new legal code of the country. That's huge. Andrei uses the Code Napoleon and the Justiniani to start figuring it all out.
- Wait, hang on, Shmoop – he uses what? OK, so back in ancient Rome, the very first collection of laws was put together by Emperor Justinian. This was a huge deal because for the very first time, you had all the laws all in one place, all systematized and easy to navigate. Much later, when Napoleon came to power, he created something similar for the laws of France. He made the laws work together, rather than just being a crazy mishmash with no rhyme or reason.

Richie McKnight runs the North Fork Outfitters guide service in southern Illinois and is a member of the Knight & Hale game calls pro staff. When it comes to calling ducks, he describes himself as an "experimenter." More and more, he's finding that less calling leads to more birds hovering over his spread.
"Today, with delayed migrations and more hunters and mechanical decoys, ducks have seen all the tricks by the time they get to my area, and they can be tough to work," McKnight says. "I'm finding that more days than not, I do better by calling less and trying to sound different from what the ducks have heard over and over back up the flyway."
Like Barnett, McKnight says hunters must watch how ducks respond to initial calling, and then adjust from there.
"If ducks are coming toward me, I'll let them get close, then I'll blow a five- to seven-note greeting call to try to lock them up. If they start sailing, I might not call anymore. I'll just let them come on their own," he explains.
"But if they don't respond to the greeting call, or they lock initially but then start veering away, I'll get a little louder and faster—more demanding. This is where the reading part comes in. You tailor your calling to how the ducks are reacting. This is an on-going process."
McKnight doesn't like to call working ducks that are upwind of his spread. "Instead, I prefer calling when their butts are toward me," he says. "When they're circling, I might give a real soft feeding call or do no calling whatever. And again, I prefer a soft calling style over a loud, demanding style."
McKnight says some days ducks respond better to a high-pitch call that makes "clean" notes. Other days they prefer a double-reed call that produces lower, deeper, and raspier sounds. Hunters should take both styles of calls to the blind and try each to see which yields the best results on a given hunting day. "The birds will tell you which sound they like," he says.
One more duck calling approach that McKnight uses is radical but also extremely effective: clucking on a goose call. He says, "Three or four hunters blowing goose calls and one hunter blowing a duck call can be deadly.
"I think this is because this is different and maybe more natural sounding to ducks. By the time ducks get to southern Illinois, they have heard standard duck calling all the way down from Canada, and they're skittish of it. But mixing goose and duck calling (and doing likewise with decoys) is different and natural, and in the past couple of seasons the mallards, especially, have responded very well to this. We've worked some big flights at some long distances using this technique."

By Kent Brickman, ACS DirectorMay 7, 2012
U.S. Army Garrison - Detroit Arsenal, Mich. -- The Detroit Arsenal recently recognized installation volunteers at a Volunteer Recognition Luncheon April 20 at Mulligan's on Selfridge Air National Guard Base.
Volunteers logged nearly $1 million in volunteer hours during the past year and it is extremely evident that there are an immense amount of amazing people who are willing to share of themselves. These people in their own right are heroes to society. These individuals are truly altruistic, only wishing to help others and often so shy that they would prefer to provide their time quietly and attempt to avoid others "making a big deal" about their selfless acts.
It is a kind and priceless gift that volunteers provide to society and humanity at large: The spouse who gives their time to those in need rather than to take part in any selfish act for themselves; there are so many retirees with a lifetime of knowledge and they opt to not allow their knowledge to be lost once they have left their paid-professional life; the veteran who decides to share their wisdom and counsel with the younger servicemembers and military family members. These volunteers, all of them, who share their time and their life with those who can benefit, are definitely amazing. They amaze others by not thinking about things like "what can you do for me" but instead "how can I help you," and this is very refreshing in these difficult economic times.
Of course, each person has their own tailored reason for being that amazing-volunteer. Jenny Downey, Army Community Service volunteer coordinator, said it best when she shared, with a smile, "If you ask a hundred volunteers why they volunteer you're going to get a hundred different reasons." That would mean that there are more than 700 reasons that people volunteer in-and-around the Detroit Arsenal and Selfridge Air National Guard Base.
The event was also used to recognize this year's top volunteers.
This year's youth volunteer of the year recipient was Matthew King. King had a tremendous impact on the Child and Youth Services program at DTA. He has been instrumental in the youth sports program by volunteering his time to coach, referee, and umpire sports programs ranging from football, baseball, basketball, soccer, and floor hockey. His commitment to these activities not only helped mentor youth in the programs but allowed the program to offer significantly more sports activities because of his dedication and involvement.
Additionally, he has been deeply committed to the Middle School and Teen program and as volunteered for the majority of projects this group takes on. They include: Capuchin Soup Kitchen, Detroit Children's Hospital, Shelby Township Senior Center, Vista Maria, Crossroads of Detroit, Boys and Girls Clubs of America, 4-H MSU-Extension Garden Project, Second Hand Rose, Boys and Girls Clubs of America, and Earthworks Community Garden.
This year's adult volunteer of the year was Tiffany Hall. Hall has logged more than 300 hours to the DTA chapel. She has answered the call of duty time and again, without waiver, and always enthusiastically. She assisted with the weekly Bible study classes, the Women's Ministry Meetings, the Chaplain's Mission Team, the Council of Christian Fellowship and a variety of programs sponsored by the chaplain's office to include the Annual Prayer Breakfast.
She coordinates and organizes other chapel volunteers and makes certain that they receive the credit they are due for their hard work. Her work is essential the success of the chaplain's mission and can be counted on when the chaplain is called away for travel or to attend to families. She has been dedicated to serving the DTA population and ensures the opportunity to practice freedom of religion throughout our installation.
If you would like to join the ranks of the amazing individuals described above and you have a caring-heart then feel free to contact us about how you can also help others with your knowledge/life-experience. Call the ACS Volunteer Coordinator, at 586-282-0483, to start or restart your journey as a volunteer. Also, just in case you did not know, you may also review Detroit Arsenal's ACS videos, which can be found on Youtube - channel "ACS2826960Outreach"

Officials inspect a burned out JJ's Restaurant at the Plaza shopping district of Kansas City, Mo., Wednesday, Feb. 20, 2013. Search crews at the site of the massive explosion that destroyed the restaurant, recovered one body Wednesday, and the city's mayor said there was no certainty the rubble wasn't concealing other victims. Mayor Sly James declined to say whether the body belonged to a man or a woman, though authorities have been looking for a woman who worked at JJ's restaurant and was seen there before the Tuesday evening blast and reported missing afterward. A natural gas leak turned into an explosion that leveled the building on Tuesday evening. (AP Photo/Orlin Wagner)
