A Domain name is everything comes after the "www." part in a web address. It consists of two parts: the part you make up (usually its your company name) and the regulated suffixes that follow. There are .coms, .nets, .orgs, .tv, .biz and a whole slew of others that all correspond to what kind of company you are. For example something ending in .org is usually a non-profit organization and something ending in .gov is a government institution. That's why most companies try to go with .com though it really doesn't matter which one you go with in terms of functionality.
The actual process of registering a domain name is very simple and straightforward – it can be purchased by you or your web designer. The cost is about $10 per year, and you must buy in yearly increments. I highly recommend buying it for 3-4 years simply for reassurance that it will not expire soon after you buy it. Some companies offer a year free when you sign up for their web hosting service and are usually quite a bargain. The bottom line is that no matter who you buy your domain name from your ownership rights are the same: YOU own your domain for the time you pay for it and you can take your domain and switch it from one hosting company to the next as often as you like.
Keep track of the expiration date of your domain because most hosting companies do a poor job making you aware of when its time for renewal. You do not want your domain to expire and THEN try to renew it. Believe me when I say you will have a better experience giving yourself a root canal. Renew it months in advance and purchase it for more years than you think you will need it.

Tyra Banks said in the rerun of ANTM Cycle 4, "I would love to be the one to change the fashion modeling industry now. But I can't. You are thin but the industry is strict." Or something like that. She meant to make it in the fashion world, you still have to be thinner than normal people's thin.
The 1st model who died from anorexia was Luisel Ramos, reported to have adopted a diet of lettuce leaves and Diet Coke for the three months before her death.
The Age – Survival of the thinnest
Daily Mail – This is the model who sparked size zero debate
Daily Mail – The scandal of our starving models
Then, another thin model died – Ana Carolina Reston, a Brazilian model who was more famous than Luisa, weighted at 40 kilograms (88 lbs.), measured 1.72 m (5 feet 7 inches) and had been hospitalized since October 25 for kidney malfunction due to anorexia nervosa and bulimia, which included a diet consisting only of apples and tomatoes.
The Observer – 'Everyone knew she was ill. The other girls, the model agencies … don't believe it when they say they didn't'
New AIDS Review – Mind over matter – unto death?
Models Blog – Brazilian fashion model dies of anorexia!!!
Soon, major fashion houses in Madrid and Brazil suggested and implemented rules and guidelines for models on catwalk. Some fashion critics dismissed the hoo haa, claiming, "Where? Madrid?" as Madrid isn't known as the big 5 cities in fashion- London, New York, Paris, Milan and Tokyo. However, almost everyone who read about this would blog about it, including yours truly.
Fashion models & celebrities have always been blamed by the society – parents, teachers, media, politicians, even other fashion models themselves – for encouraging anorexia and bulimia. Looking good sells. Clothes do look better on slim models than fat models, unless the model has hour-glass figure. But it really depends on the cutting and personality.
Let's face it – fashion magazines edit 'flaws' from their photos to the effect that most pictures appeared to be air-brushed. And some figures are slimmed down, like Kate Winslet in a GQ cover back in 2003. Heh, even GQ's editor admitted they edited pictures of her, as well as other personalities who appeared in GQ.
BBC – Magazine admits airbrushing Winslet
Media Awareness Network – Real Beauty in Magazines
CBS News – Extremely Perfect – Stars Reveal They Are Far From Perfect
Greg's Digital Archive – View touchups (rollover your mouse)
There are studies which showed that males prefer females with 0.7 waist/hip ratio because it looks more attractive (and sexy?). So really, a lot of women have issues with their belly. It doesn't matter if you have small boobs, if you have a small waist, you'll still look great.
Anorexia nervosa and Bulimia nervosa are different. Both are eating disorder. More females are affected than males but males are catching up as males place more importance on looking good than before. Even Karl Lagerfeld trimmed his body and designed slim-cut suits than regular cut suits.
Anorexia is the inability or refusal to maintain one's body weight through starvation, pills, purging and/or increased activity (like going to the gym everyday for more hours than needed). Very few food in, lots of food out.
Bulimia includes binge eating and then purging (vomit or shit) to remove the just eaten food. Usually done in private. Lots of food in, lots of food out too.
American Psychological Association – Is anorexia nervosa genetic?
Gisele Bunchen, the Supermodel from Brazil defended the fashion industry:
"I never suffered from this problem (anorexia) because I had a very strong family base. Parents are responsible, not the fashion industry," she said in the Friday edition of O Globo newspaper.
"In fashion I felt accepted," she said. "I never felt lonely because I always relied on my family."
Last October, famed Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld denied that anorexia is a problem among models.
"We don't see anorexic (girls)," he told Reuters. "The girls are skinny. They have skinny bones."
US Magazine – Gisele Blames Families, Wrong Genes for Anorexia
What she said was true too. If you have really strong base in your ability, confidence and health, you wouldn't make yourself sick to get jobs and be popular.
What Karl said was funny. I have small bones, extremely small for my arms and when I'm thin, my arms look thinner, like under developed adult.
Tyra, one of the most famous black models was toned and slim during her heyday. Yet, if you see her last catwalk for Victoria's Secret, you'll notice that she's among the biggest model there.
Nicky Santoro – 10th Victoria's Secret Fashion Show (part II)
Izabel Goulart, Naomi Campbell, Karolina Kurkova, Tyra Banks, Heidi Klum, Gisele Bundchen, Adriana Lima, Selita Ebanks and Alessandra Ambrosio
It's not because she's fat but other younger models are thinner and less voluptous. She gained weight in a recent holiday and her pictures were splattered all over gossip celebrities magazines – giving a new topic in her The Tyra Banks Show.
Sky Showbiz – Tyra's weight gain
People – COVER STORY: Tyra Banks Speaks Out About Her Weight
Who likes to be called fat? It's degrading. And who likes to be called a waif like Kate Moss, who started the waif wave? There are people who want to gain weight and meat but just couldn't no matter how much they eat.
Do you have a healthy body image? How tough is your self-love and confidence?

Sound: While the 550x sports the traditional SWR sound, it also brings a whole range of new sounds to the table. As I mentioned before, the aural enhancer plays a crucial part in the sound of all SWR amps. It brings the modern sounds of crisp highs and punchy bass, while on the other end of the spectrum giving off the classic sounds that so many of my colleagues still value. However even with the aural enhancer defeated, the EQ alone offers a huge range of tonal possibilities. From the deep, rich, boomy bass offered by low frequency adjustment, to the bright clear ringing treble, this amp is equally suited for every genre, from metal to jazz. // 8
Reliability & Durability: While this amp holds it's own in many situations, be they studio or Live, metal or jazz, one thing that it lacks is durability. Within one week of owning the amp, the power Switch developed some sort of short, which caused the amp to play at only a fraction of the power that it was capable of outputting. In addition, during the same short span of time, both the gain and master volume knob had considerable crackling occurring while moving. This should not be happening. This amp was treated with the utmost care and respect. Especially considering the short amount of time that it had been in my possession at the time that the problems occurred. // 6
Overall Impression: While there seemed to be some rather serious problems in the control parts of the amp, these were compensated for by the overall presentation of the unit. Once again SWR aims to please with their advance tone shaping technology and the all tube preamplifier. Elements of the modern, the classic, and the funky come together to really make this amp bark, at any volume, in any situation. // 7

Children and Windows ~ a dangerous combination
1 Apr
A while back I received an email from a retired insurance adjuster. She mentioned that there were several claims she handled in the past where children fell from open windows that were only secured by a screen. Unfortunately each time the child was either seriously injured or died. She went on to explain how more recently she visited two households where she considered the parents to have above average intelligence and capable of common sense only to find common sense that was dormant. In one case the parents had a large ottoman under a second story window and the second case a toy box was under a very high first story window. When she brought the dangers of this to the parents, the safety problem was met with a ho-hum reaction. She concluded that the parents probably didn't think much of it simply because they don't hear about it more frequently.
In my opinion the problem of parents not caring about safety problems like this is caused by several things. First of all I agree that a small part of the problem is that some people have to hear things over and over in the news before they begin to believe it. Or they have to experience first hand, which by then is usually too late. The second problem in my opinion is that some parents just lack common sense about safety. Sorry if this sounds harsh, but it's my opinion. I personally have always thought about this potential safety problem with both of my daughters. I go a step further and I worry about them leaning against closed windows. You never know when a window may break or come out of its frame which could lead to a potentially serious injury. So I never let my girls lean on or sit against an open or closed window.
So for any parents who come across this blog…Think about the windows in your home. They're a serious potential safety problem. Don't put items in front of them that your children can crawl up on. Don't trust a child near an open window; it's like a magnet to them. And most of all don't think for a minute that a screen is going to keep your child from falling out.
Take some time to think ahead with placing furniture and securing your windows. Consider putting up a window guard like the one pictured. Or a stopper to keep the window from opening.
With a little planning on safety you could save your child's life.
Do you know of a good article on this subject? Submit a comment with the link or any other information you think parents for would helpful.
Thanks to Lynne from California for the information, email and link to the following site:

Rated 5 out of 5�by Plum04 Great jacket! My son never wants to take this jacket off! It keeps him warm, has lots of zippered pockets, and it also has a cozy hood. I would purchase again! March 2, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Matt good quality Son loves this more then his heavy coat . Only wish that they came with a optional Hood or reversible to different color February 16, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by HappyMomandSon Big Hit for my 10 yr old son Great coat for my 10 yr old who REFUSES to wear his "bulky" winter jacket. This has been a good compromise. It is a perfect mid weight jacket which fulfills my requirement that he wear more than a sweatshirt to school and his that it is "not puffy". Very soft and sizing seems right on. And the icing on the cake...got it on sale/ free shipping and delivered quicker than expected! Very happy! February 12, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Jennifer My son loves it but... My son loves this jacket. This is our second purchase of this jacket because unfortunately his jacket was lost at school the third time he wore it. And we think some kid may have walked off with it. So we purchase the jacket again to replace. He loves this jacket and is warm and cozy. However the zipper is sewn on the inside. I will need to take it to a seamstress and have the zipper removed and put back on correctly. February 2, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Wendy My son loves it ! Bought in black XL for my 11 year son and he loves it . Is not to heavy but warm. And goes with everything! We went to the store and bought a blue one for my youngest son too. Highly recommend January 28, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by SAMiam my son loves this jacket! Finally one he will wear to school! Great fit, lightweight and warm. Love it! January 21, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Suthngal Love Bought this for my 10 year old who refuses to wear a coat. This was a good compromise. Mid weight coat. Great for layering on colder days. He says it keeps him warm. It is 22 out today and he was fine with shirt, pullover, jacket, gloves and hat. Bought the same coat for my 13 year old. Both are very happy. January 19, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Morgie Great boys coat This was for my son who dislikes wearing a coat & would prefer a sweatshirt all winter long.. It's light weight but warm & he loves the soft interior lining & hood. Easy to wash & dry. I got black version on sale for $70. Definitely recommend! January 19, 2016

Anyone fishing today?
I plan on leaving work around 12, going to swing by the house and get my gear. I plan on being in the park between 1 and 2 this afternoon. Anyone want to join me, or better yeat anyone mind showing this tailwater guy a thing or two about park fishing? I know alittle but not alot.
Shot me a text if you want someone to fish with today, 865- 680-7982
Rod, I thought about heading up to the mountains as well. Send me a text when you get close to leaving to see if I can get free if you want...
I am likely driving up from GA tomorrow to test my luck on the Little River. Never really done that well there, but usually I couldn't pick my time because I was playing tourist with the fam.
Figuring I can leave early morning from here, get to Townsend to pick up a few things at the shop, then head into the park. Hopefully my guess is that fishing will be better in the afternoon due to temperatures.
Going to try it Friday as well, though the weather looks very questionable then.
I don't know how it could be much worse than fishing this past weekend during a snow hatch... :biggrin:
Still brought in 14 and all on dries... it could not have been more than 40 degrees out with off and on snow flurries but man were they looking up. I lost just as many and more 8-12 inch rainbows than you could imagine. The fish are REALLY looking good so far! One run I had 5 in a row on almost consecutive casts. Definitely a surprise day considering the conditions...:cool:
Tight Lines,
I talked to two customers after closing time. They both had a fairly good day. One fellow from Hong Kong said he fished Abrams and caught 12 to 15. He obviously knew what he was doing. Another fellow said he fished the Middle Prong for a short while and caught a few on a Parachute Adams. I did not spend much time downstairs so there may have been others. I think the fishing is going to be excellent for a while thanks to the warmer water.
So I posted that from work this morning, I have been working my tail off here lately. With a lot on my mind this week, I needed some time to clear my head. The Clinch is blown out. I haven't fished much at all in the park. Just a trip or two a year max. When I got to work this morning, I asked my boss what all was on the table. We talked for a few before I mentioned I wouldn't mind taking half a day to clear my mind, he told me he understood to go ahead. I managed to make it until 11:30.
I had to run back home to grab my gear and let the dog out, I rolled into LRO shortly after 12:30, I talked to Daniel and got the skinny on what was going on. I proceeded to pay my dues by buying a dozen flys and some leaders. I spoke to Shawn and his brother, and off to the river I went. I got to where I wanted to fish, got rigged up and off I went. Having not been in the water not 10 minutes, I noticed these big flys coming off. What could it be? Quillgordons of course! I caught a 7 inche brown right off the bat. I worked my way on up the river, to run into a rain shower of quillgordons. The trout were going nuts over these things, I managed to catch a few average fish "8-10 inches". I kept seeing a really nice one rise ever some often. I softly said to my self " I'm going to catch his a$$ before I move". After four or five drifts over him I watch my quillgordon come to a stop and swiftly move up stream and go under. ( I forgot to add I was fishing a quillgordon wet fly behind my dry), anyhow I set the hook seen the flash and said oh boy it's on! After a short fight and a couple of runs, I landed a nice 16 inche brown. Which I think is my biggest fish to date in the park.
I ended the day with a couple more misses, a hook up which ended in a LDR. All and all one of my best days in the park! Fishing report has been spot on, and I only see it getting better!
What a great day to clear my mind, and do some soul searching! Get out there while it's on fire!
Tight lines y'all this tail water boy might just turn in to a rock hopper after all
Oh forgot to add I will post pics later tonight or tomorrow
It sure is fun isn't it... :biggrin:
Now post a pic of that brown...
Tight Lines,
Sorry to miss your calls. I had my phone in the backpack. I guess I am kind of like Byron in that my cellphone is somewhere and I could go without it...
We did well with parachute adams that I had tied up. I tied up some larger dries and the small fry would hit them on every drift and not get them under. It was kind of funny to watch.
We did lose several flies in the trees as we are not accustomed to high sticking.:cool:
It was a beautiful day to be outside and to be in God's Grace!
I just have my iPad until my kid gets home with the laptop. Then to remember how to us photo bucket

Wild animals such as wild boar, deer, porcupine, hares and owls may be seen and/or heard, with luck and a little patience, at dawn or dusk on the road and track to the chalet or, occasionally, around the chalet itself at night.
The are is great for walking, relaxing and getting away from it all. Plums, cherries,walnuts, hazelnuts, chestnuts and mushrooms are all at hand, according to the season. There are many tracks suitable for mountain biking, but fitness is required if cycling back up to the chalet from the valleys below.

Margot Robbie: Get the golden glow
Margot Robbie looked beautiful at the Golden Globes on Sunday evening and it wasn't just her Gucci dress that had us fawning, her glowing skin set off her nude gown was simply flawless.
Make-up artist Jennifer Streicher created the look and inspiration was 'Bronzed Babe', something that was definitely carried out.
If you want to get the golden glow, follow these tips:
First, we did an all-over application of the St. Tropez Self Tan Bronzing Mousse the day before. This provided a gorgeous and natural sun-kissed base. I mixed Instant Tan Wash Off Body Lotion in Medium/Dark with the Skin Illuminator and applied liberally. After a few minutes I went back over a few key spots with just the Skin Illuminator (tops of shoulders, chest and collarbone). This was a very tricky process while she was wearing a white dress, so I lined the dress with tissue while I applied. I thought this look turned out gorgeous – she looked glowing.

Arizona Midday
Today on Arizona Midday, the topic was how to achieve Southwest style. Southwest-chic is everywhere and easy to pick up with just a few pieces. Note: it is important to just focus on one piece. A look loaded up with a pattern sweater, turquoise jewelry and fringe accessories is fun to see in editorials but rarely translates into a successful look in real life. Start by adding a bold piece of silver and turquoise, a chambray shirt or pattern sweater. If you missed the segment, you can watch it here!
If you watched the segment and saw a piece that must be yours (and I hope you did!), please email me at email@example.com and I will send you the buying information ASAP!

NEW UPDATE: The file is no longer available from Laurie's blog. You can do a google image search to find the file, or you can try downloading from any of these locations HERE, or an alternate but similar version HERE. THANKS!
EDIT: I've received a lot of inquiries on how to print the file. I cannot really tell you how to line it up or size it, as I just adjusted it & played around with it. I used Microsoft Powerpoint to do this, you could also use MS Word or any other word processing software. I hope that helps!
I am SO excited to share this one with you!
I was cruising one of my favorite sites (www.splitcoaststampers.com) the other day (of course!) and we were all sharing some craft fair ideas. Someone was kind enough to link to Laurie Furnell's Blog – where she shared the cutest snowman candy bar wrappers. These are digital art files that you can print out right from the computer – and the best part is that Laurie is offering them for FREE! How generous!
I knew I had to try these when I saw them. I saw some really cute ideas & was determined to figure out how to make those little fleece hats. So here is my attempt:
I grabbed the fleece from my local Joann Fabric store. TIP: check the "remnants bin" – where they have small remnants from larger bolts of fabric. You won't need a ton of fabric to make these, so using remnants is a great way to make this project super cheap. I was lucky to get all of that red fleece from the remnants pile 🙂
Here is another view – I just have a regular ol' Hershey Bar in there. I plan on selling these at my Craft Fair – I hope they are a crowd pleaser!
On to the video where I hope I explain how to make these fleece hats pretty easily. Click HERE to watch it on YouTube. Thanks!

When my friend Holly served this to us in Little Rock over 15 years ago, we were blown away by the wonderful marriage of flavors. This is one of our favorites!
2 cans whole green beans (can use 1/2 pound fresh green beans)
8 slices bacon (uncooked)
3/4 stick butter
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 t. garlic powder
1/8 t. pepper
Cut bacon slices in half. Wrap around 4-5 beans and place seam side down in a 9X13″ casserole dish.
In a small sauce pan over medium heat, combine butter, brown sugar, garlic powder and pepper. Heat until bubbly and sugar is dissolved. Pour over beans. Bake covered at 375 degrees for 45 minutes. Uncover for the last 5 minutes. Serves 6.

Okay, so I have a player who plans to play a Ranger, but plans to take levels of Arcane Archer later on. Due to the racial bonuses of his race (+2 Dex and Cha, -2 Wis), wouldn't it technically be better if he took a level of Sorcerer instead of a level of Wizard to qualify for the Prestige Class?
Thanks in advance. Also, I think he plans to take the Arcane bloodline if he goes Sorcerer instead of Wizard, optimization be damned.
...you're missing the point, blackblood. We both agreed he'll play a Catfolk. If you want to say you hate the race (which is the vibe I am getting from your posts), go ahead and say it. It's not contributing to this topic in any way. (And he actually plans to play it looking more like a human with cat ears and tail than an anthro, if that's what you were worrying about)
Now, anyone with actual optimizing in mind got a say about the options of Wizard or Sorcerer?
|The Bluffing Buff
|The Bluffing Buff
I kinda figured that he'd rather keep the character with the Arcane bloodline so we don't have to go with the whole "your grandpa ****ed an *Insert magical being here*" crap. Then again, now I'm starting to think that he should just pray he rolls really damned good stats so none of the caster stats will be problematic. Still not sure whether he should be a Wizard or a Sorcerer.

Still not sure whether he should be a Wizard or a Sorcerer.
Arcane and Destined are both easily justified without that. As are Dreamspun, Accursed, Maestro, Starsoul and Verdant. And that's just going flat-out by their descriptions without even the slightest reflavoring.
Out of curiosity, why does he want to go arcane Archer? Straight Ranger's probably better, and even for a magic-using archer Eldritch Knight's debatably better. Or archer Paladin.
...I guess that can be arranged.
But if hypothetically speaking he had all stats around 15 ( as in, 14-16 ), how would you go about building the levels, up until he gains one level of Arcane Archer?
Honestly? I'd go Ranger 5/Sorcerer 2. Maybe even in that order, from a mechanics perspective. Thematically, he might want to take some Sorcerer earlier than that, in which case I'd go Ranger, Ranger, Sorcerer, Sorcerer, then Ranger again until he's qualified.
|Paladin of Baha-who?
Quit punching the damn furries. If someone wants to play an anthro race, they can play an anthro race. Why is it acceptable to want to be an green-haired gnome who turns into a leopard, but not acceptable to play a snow leopard?

It is most likely the result of a few easily offended, and very vocal members of the group. Those select few are advent trolls.
|The Drunken Dragon
Might also help the fact that sorcerers have more spells per day, and arcane archers aren't really built for, as far as I know, for using a broad variety if spells rather than a few select spells VERY often. A blast-sorcerer or battle sorcerer combined with spell-less ranger might be a good idea. As for the furry thing...that strip should really not be used as defense, it really doesn't help their case as effectively considering the punchline...bah, whatever
|Gary Teter Senior Software Developer
As I stated earlier, though turned down, an alternate tiefling can resemble a catfolk in all ways, and with a added bonus, can have catfolk parents, and may not even know they are something else. Sorry I repeated this.
They'd probably need to be Rakshasa blooded to do this believably...and Rakshasa blooded Tieflings get +2 Dex, -2 Wis, +2 Cha. So why are you reccomending this again? I'm a bit confused.
Why are you guys running in circles over what the character's race is instead of the stats?
You haven't told us stats. :)
Also, it's basically just blackbloodtroll, I just thought someone should respond to him diretly after his, what, 4th post saying the exact same thing you probably don't care about or intend to do. So his posts on that subject can stop cluttering up the thread (his posts on other subjects being perfectly reasonable).
I would suggest sorcerer also (for the reasons listed above). Regarding Wisdom stats I do not personally feel that a -2wisdom is a game breaker for a poor spellcasting class (ranger). Depending on the build (how many Arcane Archer levels he takes etc) the most he will likely get to is 3rd level ranger spells.
To be honest, if the player isnt majorly attached to Ranger then I would suggest a Fighter-Sorcerer-AA instead. Gravity bow is in the sorcerer list too so he wouldnt need to have ranger to take it.
I would also look for frontloaded (as much as there are any) Sorcerer abilities since there wont be alot of advancement there. (Reminder, AA spell level gains do not increase sorcerer nonspell abilities.) One of the elemental bloodlines would allow the PC to change spells type for free. (Example, fireball becomes iceball). It really depends on what your player wants to do with his character.
Ultimately, the sorcerer type is more flavor for a character that wont stay sorcerer long.
Hope this helps - Gauss
I would hit up sorcerer for the arcane portion. I would suggest taking eldritch knight rather than Arcane Archer (or only grab the first few levels of arcane archer).
It would be helpful to know what the players goal(s) with the character are. There are some really neat eldritch knight builds that add in a few levels of arcane archer. But if your player wants to use the bow with spells as a secondary thing it might change suggestions.
Just my 2 cents.
If the catfolk's -2 wisdom penalty is being problematic for the character build, you could do what I did and simply throw in a racial for catfolk that makes their wisdom count as two points higher for purposes of ranger spells and abilities. I always thought it made sense for catfolk to have a racial like that since they're supposed to be hunter/gatherers, and it doesn't greatly unbalance the race, at least no more than the tiefling's fiendish blood does for tiefling.
Ranger (Guide - Trapper) 1/Wizard 5/Eldritch Knight 10/Arcane Archer 4
Is a solid build. You don't need more than 14 Int to start with to be effective at what you want to do (be a damage hose with good buffs and out of combat casting). You'll also have trapfinding and perception as a class skill.
One downside to starting with Ranger, though, is that you miss a bonus feat. This might be hard, especially missing out on the Human bonus feat as well. It'll take the archery aspect of the build longer to get up and running, as you really need 3-4 feats to truly get going with archery. (One houserule way around this is to allow the character to play a martially focused wizard, and let him sub out Scribe Scroll for a bonus combat feat. It was a legal option in 3.5, but hasn't made its way to Pathfinder as they tend to discourage multi-classing and "dipping" classes thus far).
You could go Sorcerer, but if this is a long term campaign that may get to high levels, Sorcerer falls behind because it misses out on 9th level spells at the very end...AND it puts you another level behind in terms of casting progression. That really hurts in a hybrid build that is already two levels behind for most of the build (and 3 at the end).
I'd go Dex > Str and Int > Wis and Con > Charisma (dump it)
If you're rolling for ability scores, the penalties and bonuses will probably matter even less (if you are rolling 6 and then assigning to the scores you want, at least). They mean more in point buy, in my experience.
Hope that gives you an idea to build off of.

2011 Assessment Scores Report – Error Code 6 for PSAE Records
Error Code 6 = The grade of the test taken is different than the assessment correction detail report grade.
Due to the New ISBE Rule that became effective in January 2011, all PSAE score records in the 2011 Assessment Scores Report will be identified as grade 11 when scores are posted and will contribute to Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) participation and performance calculations, as appropriate.
Any student record in the 2011 Assessment Correction Report identified as being grade 12 will cause an error code of "6" to appear in the Assessment Scores Report. Districts are not required to adjust the grade level for these records in the Assessment Correction Report to grade 11 in order to eliminate the presence of this error code. Again, ISBE will not require districts to change this grade level. If districts edit the student record grade from 12 to 11 in the Assessment Correction Report, this will remove the error code 6, but again this is not required. If a student was truly in grade 12 at the time of testing and should not have tested, districts should contact ISBE to have the scores invalidated.
Any questions about PSAE data corrections should be directed to Megan Forness in the Division of Student Assessment by calling 217-782-4823 or sending an email inquiry to firstname.lastname@example.com.

I know I've said this before, but . . . .
The first two days of the British Open are my two favorite sporting days of the year.
I'm one of those weirdos who not only likes playing golf, but likes watching it . . . particularly at the highest level, and it gets no higher than the men's four major championships.
The British is my favorite due to the International Date Line . . . at least I think that's what gets the credit. That five-hour time difference, combined with UK summertime days that last, well, ALL FREAKIN' DAY, means the first tee is busy from about 2 a.m. (our time) to 4 p.m. Thanks to ESPN (never thought anyone would start a sentence that way, did you?), we can watch it from roughly 4 a.m. to 4 p.m., and today, I damn near did.
I set the alarm for 5 a.m. for Round 1, and I MISSED THE FIRST HOUR OF COVERAGE. Gotta love an event like that. Anyway, I might try it again for Round 2, but will likely hit the snooze a couple times, which gets me to thinking . . .
Shouldn't we add "snooze alarm" to my previous list of most underrated advancements of the 20th century?
So far, my list looks like this:
1. Relaxed-fit jeans.
2. Automatic garage-door openers
3. Light beer (yeah, I know, but think of the mental good it does for those of us who need relaxed-fit jeans)
4. Snooze alarm.
Wait, where were we? Oh, the British Open.
As I write this, it's still smack-dab in the middle of prime time on the East Coast of the U.S. of A. And the first Open Championship Round 2 tee time is just four hours away.

Former treasurer Troy Buswell could still be charged with drink-driving over the crash that ended his ministerial career.
As Colin Barnett accused the Opposition of "distasteful" questions in State Parliament over the affair, Labor called for an independent inquiry "so the public can have confidence criminality is not being covered up".
Opposition Leader Mark McGowan said he found it "inconceivable" the Premier's chief of staff Brian Pontifex and senior adviser Narelle Cant did not ask Mr Buswell's chief of staff Rachael Turnseck what preceded his breakdown when they met for 45 minutes on February 25.
"If she was at the wedding and she advised Mr Barnett's most senior advisers of that, what did they ask her about those events," Mr McGowan said.
"I find it inconceivable that they would not have asked what happened on that night."
On Monday in the immediate wake of the revelations of Mr Buswell's accident on February 23, Police Commissioner Karl O'Callaghan said it would be hard to prove a drink-driving charge without a breath test.
Yesterday, a spokeswoman for Mr O'Callaghan said while he stood by that statement, it was based on detail available at that time. "Further information has come to light and the matter is under investigation by major crash specialists," she said.
Those officers would assess the evidence and decide whether there should be a charge.
In Parliament, Mr McGowan asked the Premier why he told reporters last Saturday he was confident Mr Buswell would soon return to work.
"I knew he was out of hospital," Mr Barnett said. "I knew he was improving. My guesstimate, In my view, at that stage, he would be back in two weeks.
"What do you expect me to do? Ring his mother? Ring his sister? Ring his doctor? For goodness sake. The guy's had a breakdown, he's in a serious situation and I respected that. And I do today."
After more questions and interjections, the Premier said: "I have never experienced such distasteful inquiries about a member of this House."

The new Ligue 1 season is almost upon us. Champions Paris Saint-Germain will travel to Stade Auguste Delaune to face Stade de Reims on Friday, August 8 to kick off the new campaign. As has become customary, it has once again been a summer of change in Le Championnat.
Not only has there been the now traditional exodus in talent from the French top flight, there has also been a heavy number of coaching changes. No fewer than seven sides will be boasting new bosses when the new term gets underway, and among those with new tacticians are powerhouses AS Monaco, Olympique de Marseille and Olympique Lyonnais.
Paris Saint-Germain will start the season as favourites to successfully defend their title and claim a third consecutive Ligue 1 crown, but they should face sterner resistance from a number of the chasing pack. The new faces are the popular RC Lens—finally granted their top-flight status after a legal wrangle—FC Metz and SM Caen.
Here is our team-by-team guide to the 2014/15 Ligue 1 season.
*All transfers accurate and up-to-date as of August 4, thanks to Ligue1.com's transfer tracker. All statistics from last season are also via Ligue1.com.

Age of Obama
We Have Met the Enemy, and He is Us.
Well, yet another example of the military choosing to envisage terrorism coming from a home grown source, this time from people who have the temerity to believe the Second Amendment says what it says:
The ONG 52nd Civil Support Team training scenario involved a plot from local school district employees to use biological weapons in order to advance their beliefs about "protecting Gun Rights and Second Amendment rights."
Portsmouth Chief of Police Bill Raisin told NBC 3 WSAZ-TV in Huntington, West Virginia that the drill accurately represented "the reality of the world we live in," adding that such training "helps us all be prepared."
Internal ONG documents provided to Media Trackers after repeated delays provide further context to what WSAZ-TV reported last winter.
In the disaster-preparedness scenario, two Portsmouth Junior High School employees poisoned school lunches with mustard gas, acting on orders from white-nationalist leader William Pierce.
The ONG team discovered biological weapons being produced in the school, requiring activation of containment and decontamination procedures.
Participants in the disaster drill located documents expressing the school employees' "anti-government" sentiments, as well as a note identifying Pierce as the fictional right-wing terrorists' leader.
ONG's 52nd Civil Support Unit participated in a similar drill involving left-wing terrorists with Athens County first responders last year; public officials apologized for that training the next day in response to complaints from local environmentalist groups.
No apology to Ohioans who supported limited government and the Second Amendment appears to be forthcoming. Continue reading
Meanwhile, Back at the States
It is an odd thing about the United States that the activities of the Federal government tends to dominate news coverage, while the activities of the States get short shrift. I say this is odd, because State government still tends to impact the lives of most Americans far more than the Federal government. This can give us a rather distorted view of what is going on in the country. Conn Carroll in an editorial in the Washington Examiner, reports on a largely unknown story as far as most of the national media is concerned:
The United States faces a crisis in our political system," the Washington Post's E.J. Dionne wrote last December, "because the Republican Party is no longer a normal, governing party."
Dionne is half-right. The United States does face a crisis in our political system. Last week, Pew released a new study showing that trust in the federal government remains near all-time lows. Worse, for the first time ever, Pew found that a majority of Americans believe the federal government threatens their personal rights and freedoms.
And it is not just Republicans who now see the federal government as a threat. A full 55 percent of independents agree with them, up from just 50 percent only two years ago.
But the story is completely different at the state and local level. According to a September 2012 Gallup poll, a full 65 percent of Americans trust their state government — a 14-point jump in confidence from 2009.
Why is Americans' confidence in state and local government surging while their frustration and fear of the federal government are growing? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that Republicans govern at the state level.
Republicans currently occupy the governor's mansions in 30 states, representing 58 percent of the U.S. population. They control both the governorship and legislature in 25 states, representing 52 percent of all Americans. Democrats enjoy such control of only 14 states, representing just 33 percent of the country.

Live Not By Lies
Live Not by Lies is the last thing Alexander Solzhenitsyn wrote before his exile to the West in 1974. Solzhenitsyn was one of the giants of the last century. Thrown into the Gulag while he was an artillery officer in the Red Army during World War II, he tirelessly, at the constant risk of his life, fought a lonely battle for freedom for three decades in the Soviet Union. His courage and literary skill inspired people around the globe, including me as a teen-ager and a young man. I never thought what he wrote would be applicable to the United States, the land of the free and the home of the brave. Alas, in the Age of Obama Solzhenitsyn's writings have an increasingly unpleasant contemporary ring to them.
So in our timidity, let each of us make a choice: Whether consciously, to remain a servant of falsehood–of course, it is not out of inclination, but to feed one's family, that one raises his children in the spirit of lies–or to shrug off the lies and become an honest man worthy of respect both by one's children and contemporaries.
And from that day onward he:
- Will not henceforth write, sign, or print in any way a single phrase which in his opinion distorts the truth.
- Will utter such a phrase neither in private conversation not in the presence of many people, neither on his own behalf not at the prompting of someone else, either in the role of agitator, teacher, educator, not in a theatrical role.
- Will not depict, foster or broadcast a single idea which he can only see is false or a distortion of the truth whether it be in painting, sculpture, photography, technical science, or music.
- Will not cite out of context, either orally or written, a single quotation so as to please someone, to feather his own nest, to achieve success in his work, if he does not share completely the idea which is quoted, or if it does not accurately reflect the matter at issue.
- Will not allow himself to be compelled to attend demonstrations or meetings if they are contrary to his desire or will, will neither take into hand not raise into the air a poster or slogan which he does not completely accept.
- Will not raise his hand to vote for a proposal with which he does not sincerely sympathize, will vote neither openly nor secretly for a person whom he considers unworthy or of doubtful abilities.
- Will not allow himself to be dragged to a meeting where there can be expected a forced or distorted discussion of a question.
- Will immediately walk out of a meeting, session, lecture, performance or film showing if he hears a speaker tell lies, or purvey ideological nonsense or shameless propaganda.
- Will not subscribe to or buy a newspaper or magazine in which information is distorted and primary facts are concealed.
Of course we have not listed all of the possible and necessary deviations from falsehood. But a person who purifies himself will easily distinguish other instances with his purified outlook.
No, it will not be the same for everybody at first. Some, at first, will lose their jobs. For young people who want to live with truth, this will, in the beginning, complicate their young lives very much, because the required recitations are stuffed with lies, and it is necessary to make a choice.
But there are no loopholes for anybody who wants to be honest. On any given day any one of us will be confronted with at least one of the above-mentioned choices even in the most secure of the technical sciences. Either truth or falsehood: Toward spiritual independence or toward spiritual servitude.
And he who is not sufficiently courageous even to defend his soul- don't let him be proud of his "progressive" views, and don't let him boast that he is an academician or a people's artist, a merited figure, or a general–let him say to himself: I am in the herd, and a coward. It's all the same to me as long as I'm fed and warm.
Even this path, which is the most modest of all paths of resistance, will not be easy for us. But it is much easier than self-immolation or a hunger strike: The flames will not envelope your body, your eyeballs, will not burst from the heat, and brown bread and clean water will always be available to your family.

Kipling's Commentary on the Age of Obama
The seventeenth in my ongoing series examining the poetry of Rudyard Kipling. The other posts in the series may be read here, here , here , here, here , here, here, here, here, here, here, here , here, here, here and here. Throughout his life Kipling was ever the foe of cant, especially when the cant was dressed up as the latest new thing. In 1919 he aimed his poetic skills at various latest new things in the modern world that Kipling realized were very old bad ideas dressed up with jargon and sold to the gullible. His poem The Gods of the Copybook Headings reads like a current commentary on our predicament, and more is the pity.
AS I PASS through my incarnations in every age and race,
I make my proper prostrations to the Gods of the Market Place.
Peering through reverent fingers I watch them flourish and fall,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings, I notice, outlast them all.
We were living in trees when they met us. They showed us each in turn
That Water would certainly wet us, as Fire would certainly burn:
But we found them lacking in Uplift, Vision and Breadth of Mind,
So we left them to teach the Gorillas while we followed the March of Mankind.
We moved as the Spirit listed. They never altered their pace,
Being neither cloud nor wind-borne like the Gods of the Market Place,
But they always caught up with our progress, and presently word would come
That a tribe had been wiped off its icefield, or the lights had gone out in Rome.
With the Hopes that our World is built on they were utterly out of touch,
They denied that the Moon was Stilton; they denied she was even Dutch;
They denied that Wishes were Horses; they denied that a Pig had Wings;
So we worshipped the Gods of the Market Who promised these beautiful things.
When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.
They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "Stick to the Devil you know."
On the first Feminian Sandstones we were promised the Fuller Life
(Which started by loving our neighbour and ended by loving his wife)
Till our women had no more children and the men lost reason and faith,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "The Wages of Sin is Death."
In the Carboniferous Epoch we were promised abundance for all,
By robbing selected Peter to pay for collective Paul;
But, though we had plenty of money, there was nothing our money could buy,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "If you don't work you die."
Then the Gods of the Market tumbled, and their smooth-tongued wizards withdrew
And the hearts of the meanest were humbled and began to believe it was true
That All is not Gold that Glitters, and Two and Two make Four
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings limped up to explain it once more.
As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man
There are only four things certain since Social Progress began.
That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire,
And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;
And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return! Continue reading

Coffee to a Tea's artists this month are brothers Rich and Sonny Timms. Their collection is inspired by growing up with a father in the service. They caught the travel bug and now spend their time searching the globe. Their showing is comprised of stunning pictures from every crevice of the world.
The artists will be available during the art walk (complete with wine and cupcakes!). 30% of the profits made while hanging at Coffee to a Tea will benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

6) Kam-Who?
Kamut—a grain you may have never heard of—is a branded version of the grain known as khorasan. It contains more protein than standard wheat (Kamut flour contains 40% more protein than white flour), as well as 65% more amino acids.
7) Protect Your Back
Do back extensions on leg days. Squat and deadlift variations take a lot out of your lower back—an area that, when injured, can derail your training entirely. So it makes sense to concentrate your direct lower-back work on lower-body days, not during upper-body sessions when it could be recovering.
8) Stay Hydrated
Start the day with at least 16 ounces of water. It's filling, and getting more will improve your recovery after workouts. Aim for one gallon per day.
9) Have Your Cake and Eat It, Too
Foods served on a crust will never be healthy per se, but pumpkin pie is one of the best "bad" foods you can eat, according to Elizabeth M. Ward, R.D. "Each slice is rich in vitamin A and antioxidants that help keep cells healthy," she says. Plus, recent research suggests that foods containing large amounts of spices may help to counteract the effects of a high-fat meal. Pumpkin pie is loaded with four of the most potent: nutmeg, clove, cinnamon, and ginger.
10) Staple Your Elbows to Your Sides
We mean this figuratively, and we mean it on curls. Allowing your elbows to drift behind your body as you lower the weight means you won't fully extend your arms, and incomplete reps rob you of muscle growth.

Coronet Instructional Films
From the mid 40s to the mid 50s Coronet Instructional Films were always ready to provide social guidance for teenagers on subjects as diverse as dating, popularity, preparing for being drafted, and shyness, as well as to children on following the law, the value of quietness in school, and appreciating our parents. They also provided education on topics such as the connection between attitudes and health, what kind of people live in America, how to keep a job, supervising women workers, the nature of capitalism, and the plantation System in Southern life. Inside is an annotated collection of all 86 of the complete Coronet films in the Prelinger Archives as well as a few more. Its not like you had work to do or anything right? [more inside]

Conscientious Objector Policy Act attempts to further mutilates our basic rights

Objecting to war
The first conscientious objector of the war? Marine Lance Cpl. Stephen Funk said he had had a lapse in judgment when he signed up as a 19-year-old, swayed by his recruiter's pitch of new skills, camaraderie and a naive belief that it would be "like the Boy Scouts."
