Ashton Kutcher: 'My Wife Is A Genetic Freak'
Ashton Kutcher has no concerns about conceiving a child with his 47-year-old wife Demi Moore - because she's a "genetic freak."
The couple is still unsure about bringing up a baby - but Kutcher admits the timing is perfect because Moore's three daughters are all independent and he would have time to be a doting dad.
And he insists the fact Moore would be a mature mum is not something that would make the pair think twice about having a kid together.
In a new TV interview, which will air on news show Nightline on Thursday, the actor says, "I think my wife is a genetic freak... I'm not worried."
Kutcher also admits he likes suddenly having more time to himself now he no longer has to drive his stepdaughters to school.
He adds, "There is something attractive about our third girl gaining some independence. I get to walk the dogs in the morning because she can drive herself to school now. There is a level of independence that we've never had since our relationship started, and an ability to spend time together doing things that we might want to take advantage of. Because in our relationship we've always had kids.
"We get to do a lot of things now... There is something very attractive about what we can do in the world and for the world, given that responsibility in a different place."

Frank Muller's performance is outstanding in this audiobook of Dickens's holiday classic. Muller seizes every opportunity to extract emotion, meaning, nuance, and subtlety from each word and each situation. Each character has a different voice, each moment has its own intensity, and there is no better "Bah! Humbug!" anywhere in audio. Muller's intelligent interpretation takes the well-known story and breathes new life into each scene. He makes listening to each description, whether of an unforgettable person such as Tiny Tim, a recognizable place such as the Cratchit house, or a familiar moment such as Christmas morning, as fresh as if one is hearing it for the first time.
Charles Dickens' Christmas classic-written in time for the 1843 holiday season-sold out its initial printing of 6,000 copies in one day. It remains Dickens' most widely read and best-loved work, guaranteed to warm and uplift with the simplicity of its message and the depth of its honest truths. Bah! Humbug! It's Christmas Eve and miserly Ebenezer Scrooge is in a foul temper-good cheer and joyful spending turn his very insides to vinegar. But before Scrooge sees the dawn break on yet another miserable Christmas morning, he will have come face-to-face with a parade of startling apparitions, and most disconcerting of all-himself. Dickens fills his entertaining Christmas ghost story with unforgettable characters and richly drawn settings. Veteran narrator Frank Muller provides the perfect voice for the mean-spirited Scrooge and his frightful visitors.

There are no listener reviews for this title yet.
"The Best"
A Christmas Carol is my absolute favorite Christmas story. The reader is perfect. A joy!
"Who am I to review a literary masterpiece"
Yes, I love the story. I have print copies, kindle copies, a CD audiobook, and my audible audiobook, all unabridged versions. I also have a large collection of movies based on the book. How could you not like a skillfully written redemption from beyond all hope story?
I love the narrative about Scrooge's readiness to meet the second spirit.
The way he gives voice to each character is wonderful. I especially like that when he reads the part about the blind man's dog he doesn't pant like the guy on my CD audiobook.
It's a timeless classic so I don't think it needs a tag line.
I HATE the Jim Carey versions of my two favorite Christmas Classics. Somebody please, please stop him before he tries a remake of "It's A Wonderful Life" or "Miracle On 34th Street"

I think the cake is absolutely beautiful! Your fondant is so perfect and your edges are so sharp! I don't see a problem w/ the monogram it looks great to me!
FromScratch on
I love the color. I have that in my collection and haven't used it nearly enough. Such a nice blue. The only thing I see with your monogram is that it looks flat on the front. Did you trace it backwards and then invert it? I'd just trace it the right way and not invert it so you get that dimension. I really love the lace look to your fondant ribbons too. Is that a cutter? Bravo again!

No the monogram is not backwards...it's just poorly done. I was trying to overflow, but it would go overboard and just spill over. This was my last attempt at left it half full. I was never taught how to do this and hadn't practiced beforehand...Girls, do your homework and don't do something crappy like my monogram :wink:

City Councilmembers Want Rules for Ghost Bikes and Roadside Memorials
(Note: An earlier version of this story mis-identified the Council Member who introduced the motion as Mitch O'Farrell. It was introduced by Mitch Englander. Streetsblog deeply regrets this error.)
Sometimes, a crash is so terrible that a permanent memorial is created. Other times, family and friends will erect a temporary memorial with flowers, pictures and religious symbols. When a bicyclist is slain in a crash, advocates such as Danny Gamboa, Aktive, the Eastside Riders, and Los Ryderz, the city's bicycle co-ops or any number of people or groups may chain up a haunting white "ghost bike" at the crash site.
How a city should respond to roadside memorials for pedestrians, car passengers and cyclists killed in crashes has been a difficult question. How long is too long? At what point does a memorial become a nuisance? When should a city step in and clean it up?
While my personal answer to such a question is "never," unless it poses a safety hazard of some sort, the lack of firm rules often leads to police, or sanitation officials, or just a local resident or business taking down a memorial without notice. This leaves the family of the victims feeling angry and violated again.
Sometimes a memorial goes back up. Sometimes it doesn't.
Councilmembers Mitch Englander and Joe Buscaino have written a motion calling on the city to create rules regarding the maintenance and removal of memorials. Current law orders the Bureau of Sanitation to remove "all items blocking the public right-of-way." In New York City, a 2010 law allowing the removal of "derelict" bicycles was amended to all "ghost bikes" to stay up, so there is precedent for major cities to enact memorial friendly legislation.
A common time frame for removal is "90 days" in other cities. Tempe, Arizona has such an ordinance, but the memorials often last much longer. But when San Diego removed the ghost bike dedicated to a popular activist nearly half-a-year after the memorial was created, the community reacted with outrage. Read more…

"Illogic here to spread a heart's work of artwork/ Along with Blockhead, who lays the undertow where the sharks lurk."
Those are among the many (many!) head-turning lyrics on "Preparing for Capture," the EP Columbus hip-hop veteran Illogic is releasing with New York producer Blockhead at Friday's Buggin' Out party. They reveal Illogic getting serious again after leaning against his brooding, self-reflective tendencies on 2009's freewheeling "Diabolical Fun."
"I was back into writing personal songs and pieces, not necessarily as much about myself but about the state of the world, the state of my race of people, black people," Illogic said. "'Diabolical Fun' was about hip-hop and the state of hip-hop, and just rapping, being a dope rapper … Where my strength is, I think, is writing more stories."
True that. He spins yarns with insight and ingenuity, spouting rhymes that merit close study from a legion of lesser local MCs. He drills thrills out of weighty subject matter.
"As people that are supposed to have rights and are supposed to know our rights and be able to fight for our rights like our predecessors did before us, it seems like as a whole and as a people either we don't care enough to fight or we don't know how to fight," Illogic said. "And even as a Christian man, it's been the last days for a long time, but Revelation is really starting to come to life around me."
Blockhead, known for his work with Aesop Rock, offers a fine foil with production that's warm, weird and funky. This is vital music from men who clearly aren't content to settle in as relics on a rap timeline.
"Preparing for Capture" is the first in a series of EPs leading up to a full-length album called "Capture the Sun." Note to moneyed music lovers looking to release great rap music: They're still seeking label support.

|Frank Hearn
|Tuesday, 29 July 2008 19:57
The arrival of Frank Hearn in Sydney in March 1956 was big sports news in a rapidly developing sporting city. The 'larrikin' from Crystal Palace had decided to leave the colder climes of England in search of an adventure in the land down under. Like so many others who came before and after him Frank decided to emigrate and was signed by the equally ambitious Gladesville-Ryde soccer club in Sydney. Gladesville-Ryde in Sydney's north-west were a district club which needed an injection of experience and with a top line footballing pedigree from England he was the ideal choice.
Frank was born in Camden in England and by his late teens he was on the playing roster at Torquay United. A transfer to Northampton Town followed before he finally made his first team debut with Crystal Palace in 1954. The following season he was transfer listed and with the blessing of his club he decided to immigrate to Australia. Only three players in Sydney soccer at the time had any professional experience in England. There was Joe Marston at A.P.I.A.Leichhardt, Billy Walsh the former Sunderland and Darlington centre half at Hakoah and his teammate Billy Murphy an inside forward at Exeter City. When Frank arrived, it made four high-profile English players and Sydney soccer was set to benefit.
I caught up with Frank at his home in Sydney's eastern suburbs and started by asking him how it all started in coming to Australia.
FH : "I was on the transfer list and I thought I would come down here. There was only Billy Walsh and he came from Sunderland and Billy Murphy from Exeter City. I had an offer to go to Los Angeles and play football in America but I thought I'd give Australia a try and haven't looked back since. Johnny Thompson was the guy who bought me out here because Johnny was playing for Gladesville then. There were players at Gladesville like Rex Foster, Tommy Rowles, Bede Greenfield, and Maxy Walker. I was only there for six months before the federation started and I went to Hakoah."
GS : When you transferred there you were one of the highest priced players at that point in Australian soccer. What was it like?
GS : Where did you go from there?
GS : What were the major differences with training in England and Australia?
GS : And in Europe?
GS : Plenty of highly talented European players followed your footsteps into the early 1960's. Players like Alick Jeffrey.
GS : And of course the high-profile Len Quested. What were your thoughts on him?
GS : And you coached his son Gary at Auburn.
GS : You played for Australia against Hearts with Len in 1959.
Frank Hearn retired from playing in 1964 after stints with Gladesville-Ryde, Wilhelmina, Hakoah and Pan Hellenic. He went on to start a lengthy coaching career with Pan Hellenic, Auburn, Prague and Hakoah where his ability to relate to his players often saw him as a popular figure in the soccer scene of the 1960s.
These days Frank has settled in the eastern suburbs of Sydney where he has retired from all things soccer. That is apart from a regular kick around on a Sunday morning in the Rose Bay area. Formeroos like Roy Blitz and Archie Blue are regulars as are soccer identities Harry Michaels, Charlie Perkins and David Hill.Frank in his own words 'captains both sides' but its more of a reflection of Franks love for the game that now into his 60s he still feels the need to don the boots and to have a run with some of the lads that made this game famous many moons ago.

Kaya Henderson Faces Parents
Barrington M. Salmon | 9/7/2011, 12:39 p.m.
Parents and Teachers Voice Support for PRCs
For Mildred Lockridge, it's always been about the children. For the past 55 years, she has served as an instructor, principal, assistant principal, math resource teacher and demonstration teacher, all in the interest of children, primarily those in Ward 8.
Last Thursday, September 1, she counted among a group of more than 50 parents, teachers, mentors and others who grilled District of Columbia Public Schools Chancellor Kaya Henderson for about 90 minutes at M.C. Terrell Elementary School in Southeast. The gathering, precipitated by the closing of three Parent Resource Centers (PRCs) in August, remained a sticking point between parents and school officials.
"The best way to move forward is to correct the problem that has been made," said Absalom Jordan, chairman of the PRC Steering Committee.
"Until you tell us how you want us to relate to you, it will be difficult for us to do so. The people at PRC live in (Wards 7 and 8) and grew up in (Wards 7 and 8) - that was unique. We want the center opened, staff rehired, and the Parent Resource Center (to operate) the way outlined in the agreement."
Parents had demanded the meeting in an effort to force Henderson to re-open the centers and rehire the dozen PRC employees she'd fired.
"I didn't gain anything from the meeting," said Lockridge. "It doesn't begin to resolve anything. We have been denied everything for our kids in Ward 8. It's very disturbing to hear about numbers. If you reached five people, it's more than you reached before."
Lockridge, 81, began the Parent Partnership, a Saturday learning program about three years ago. For three hours each weekend, dozens of children in the neighborhood would meet at Terrell.
"It was open to anyone, including children from other schools," she said. "We taught children phonics and whatever they needed. We gave them a pre-test and then they told us what they needed help with."
The Parent Resource Center inside Terrell was where the children met each weekend, said Lockridge. And since the centers were shuttered, the Saturday program has ceased.
"When I get to school at 9 a.m., kids run up to me asking when the program is going to start again. They made a mistake. These parents have so much to offer and they were opening up, asking for help."
A meeting between Kelly Young, interim director of the Office of Family and Public Engagement, and about 70 parents last month was billed as a community conversation about family and community engagement.
Instead, the forum became increasingly acrimonious as parents unloaded on Young for the school system's decision to close the centers and place almost a dozen family engagement coordinators on administrative leave. On August 15, District school administrators informed PRC employees that they were being place on administrative leave. While Henderson apologized several times to the affected employees and parents, she reiterated her intention to farm out operation of the centers to community groups.
"... Shutting down the Parent Resource Centers is the furthest thing from the truth," Henderson told the group. "I know for sure that D.C. Public Schools can't be successful without the PRC and the support of families, the community, parents and businesses."

It was October vacation time. The Lady of the House and I were staying in Tombstone, Arizona.
"Let's go to Bisbee," I said to The Lady of the House. This is the mile-high town where I once lived, about 20 miles from Tombstone.
Often when I tell tales of when I lived there folks around here wonder if I was in an open-air asylum: It's a town full of characters, alternative thinkers, artists and tourists.
We hit the road and in a short bit we were driving through a tunnel that opened up to Bisbee, county seat of Cochise County, Arizona.
We motored through the downtown section of the burg known as Tombstone Canyon, full of shops, art galleries, tourists, folks asking for handouts, hippies and young people in dreadlocks.
"I once thought about having dreadlocks," I said as we drove past the town's open pit mine. "I don't think I have enough hair. And they're a lot of work."
The Lady of the House chuckled as she looked out the window.
We continued on through the various sections of the old town, once the most populous in all of the Arizona Territory because of the copper mining.
I took a turn down an old road and headed south.
"Where are we going now?" asked The Lady of the House as we passed a Border Patrol SUV parked by the side of the road.
"The border," I said. "See those mountains? That's Mexico."
"I don't need to see the border," said The Lady of the House.
"But you can see Mexico."
"I see Mexico," she said pointing at the mountains in the distance.
I did a u-turn and headed back to Bisbee.
"A town of characters and small businesses," she said.
"They say if you want to make a small fortune in Bisbee, come with a large one." I said.
"It's a tourist town with hippies and kids with dreadlocks," said The Lady of the House. "I like it."

I don't think this implementation is quite right, we need to make sure that when the bio does finally succeed/fail the bio->end_io function sees the _altered_ version of the bio. The only way I can see of doing that is by recording the altered values, and resetting them after the targets endio function if the target doesn't want another shot. This is an annoying overhead to have for every bio, so I suggest we change the semantics of target->endio and say that it may only trigger an io retry if there was an error. Agree ? - Joe

The 2013 NBA draft class has been short on surprises.
Anthony Bennett was a giant gamble as the first pick. Victor Oladipo has been incredibly easy to cheer for and even more enjoyable to watch. Michael Carter-Williams' star has easily shined the brightest, but he always had an intriguing mix of talent and opportunity with the rebuilding Philadelphia 76ers.
The season hasn't taught us a lot that we didn't already know, which is unfortunate considering just how poorly regarded this crop of first-timers was viewed before its debut.
However, that narrative is starting to change.
Slowly but surely, this class is beginning to show some signs of life. The star power isn't great, but this wide-eyed batch just might have more NBA talent than we first realized.
Between the lengthened schedule, heightened competition and increased tempo, the Association can be brutally unkind to green youngsters. Nearly three months into the season, though, these six rookies appear to be finding their rhythm.
Unless otherwise noted, statistics used courtesy of Basketball-Reference.com and NBA.com.

Bonacic invites nominations for Veterans Hall of Fame
February 26, 2014 —
ALBANY, NY — Sen. John Bonacic is inviting nominations for induction into the New York State Senate Veterans' Hall of Fame from the 42nd Senate District. The online Hall of Fame represents extraordinary New Yorkers whose heroism in the United States Armed Forces is complimented by their service to the people in their community.
"This program provides an opportunity to acknowledge and honor the efforts of men and women who demonstrated tremendous courage during their time in the military," said Sen. Bonacic. "The Veterans' Hall of Fame recognizes their sacrifice and commitment to help secure the freedoms we enjoy today."
The selected veteran from our area will participate in a ceremony followed by a luncheon held on May 20 in Albany. The photograph and biography of each honoree across the state will become part of a special online exhibit that tells the stories of the many contributions veterans make during and after their time in military service.
To nominate a veteran, send an email to Bonacic's office at email@example.com explaining the reason your nominee should be inducted. Nominations must include a brief biography of approximately 250 words, along with the veteran's rank and file at time of discharge or end of military service.

Some quick points.
You only roll initiative once at the beginning of battle - not every round.
Criticals you roll the dice again as needed. You only multiply the damage bonus. And the special damage (dragon bane) is not doubled. As in: 2d10 + 20 + 2d6
Sometimes the players get lucky. You did pretty much wipe them out before the dragon. Kudos for finding a way to save them so they didn't lose their characters on the first adventure.

I used to DM 4e LFR games. It was easy to feel like there was a significant age difference between LFR and PFS. I almost felt embarrassed running LFR games, as if I was a man in his 40's playing a kid's game.
I think most of it was due to how the adventures were laid out and the overriding uniformity of everything.
However, I also got spoiled with LFR adventures. Even the format of the adventures was uniform, simple, and a breeze to use at the table. Every sub-tier for every encounter was on a separate page. You just pulled out that page and you had everything you needed to run the encounter - well okay, the map (with indicators of where each creature started) immediately followed the stat blocks. A combat encounter was always formatted as 1-2 pages of intro text describing the area, any boxed text, adjustments for the number of players, treasure and developments. Then all the stat blocks, then the map.
It meant there were almost double the pages a regular PFS adventure took up, but everything was there, laid out to make things as easy as possible. I got spoiled.
My one consolation with the PFS layout is that is feels old school. Hard. Less slick, less modern. PFS modules feel a lot closer to AD&D (what I cut my teeth on) than LFR did.
I sign the petition.
It would be nice to have stat blocks for each encounter on separate pages.
It would be nice to have every non-standard creature stat'ed out. I am fine with creatures taken straight from the Bestiaries left as a simple page reference with hp. Even those that just list a few modifications are fine - though these have caused a significant bit of confusion to a lot of GMs if the changes are extensive enough that the entry looks like a complete stat block - only to find when it is time to run the creature that you are missing half of it's information.
It was a pleasure to run the Bonekeep adventures. Not because as a GM I got to decimate the party, but because all the creatures were fully stat'ed. Bravo Mr. Buhlman!

The answer is maybe, or it depends.
Is this a private (ie. home) game that you are running? Then yes you have control over who is invited. You might not be able to use the local public announcement board/site to advertise your game. Just check with the person hosting the site.
Are you the event organizer for a public game? If you are in charge of the event, and you believe the person is keeping others from playing or driving players away or dangerous in some way, then Mike has said you have the right to ban that person from your events.
If you are just a GM "working" for the event organizer of a public event, then as has been said above, you may refuse to GM a table that the person is sitting at, but you can not tell that player they have to find another table to play at. You might be able to get the event organizer to do this, but your ultimate recourse is to not GM. Of course, if you do this, you will most likely not be invited back to GM there.
As others have said, taking the person aside and talking to them, can sometimes solve the problem. If you don't feel safe doing this, you should not feel pressured to do it though.

Also, for those Tier 1-7 adventures (sub-tiers 1-2, 3-4, 6-7), you can not play more than 1 sub-tier away from your character level.
If you are level 1 or level 2 you can not play in sub-tier 6-7.
If you are level 5, 6 or 7, you can not play in sub-tier 1-2.

I'm one of the GMs who won't "turn back the clock", "correct the oversight", etc. Once a player has finished their turn and I've called the next participant, that's it.
The only exception I'll make is if the correction clearly would have saved a PC from death.
Trying to go back and fix things really interrupts the flow of combat.
It works both ways. I'll often realize I forgot to use a feature like Power Attack, just after the bad guys turn.
This also applies if we discover we've been using a rule wrong. I think it works a certain way, or a player does and I don't catch it. Then someone actually looks it up after a few turns have gone by. Going forward, we use the proper rule, but I don't go back and try to change what's already occurred.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion.
And scientifically, more paper does equal more work. It takes extra energy to lift that extra paper.
Though, I personally feel that the ITS is an improvement to the game. At the very least it allows for shopping between games now.

Andrew, I suggest that you bring this incongruity between Scenarios and Modules/APs to the attention of the VOs and PFS leadership.
I'm certain that the intent is to have the rules for Scenarios, Modules, and APs work the same as much as possible.
In the last revision (v5.0) the phrase "newly created" was removed, but apparently only from Chapter 6. I believe the intention was that it should have been removed from page 6 as well.
The issue of whether you can use a pregen and then apply the Chronicle to one of your lower level PCs that would have been able to play the adventure was meant to work the same for Scenarios, Modules, and APs. You are not supposed to use a pregen for an adventure if you have a character that could play instead. This is so people must use their PC and risk death rather than a pregen, whose death could be switched over to a new PC number.
There is an easy way around this rule which you quote above. Just leave your level appropriate PC at home. You don't have a PC you could use with you, so here is a pre-gen.
Personally, I think the player is only shorting themselves if they opt to use a pregen (to protect their PC) instead of actually playing their PC. It is just one more game in which they used a pregen instead of getting to actually play their PC.
The rule should be made the same for all adventures, but I'm guessing it will be the Module version that is used. Though, how it could actually be enforced is beyond me.
Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber
It is not a hypothetical situation. The original poster stated that this situation came up this week.
The rules do not say a player must wait on item access or boons. When converted to a level 1 Chronicle sheet by reducing the gold, the PC gets everything immediately.
If you don't like the rules, they can be changed. But this is how it currently works.

Unless you go back to the GM or your local Venture Officer and get them to overturn the ruling made at the table during play, your PC is fine. It is not cheating. A ruling was made (albeit mistakenly) and play moved on. The game is over. What happened, happened. An honest mistake that turned out to be in your favor is not cheating.
However, now that you know the correct rule, if you were to let it happen again, that would be cheating.

I think the perspective of the OP is off. In PFS you are not an employee of the Pathfinder Society. You are a member. You joined because you believe in furthering the goals of said Society. Sometimes that means self-funding certain aspects of an adventure - because you believe it is the right thing to do.
If you can not accept that "buy-in" then maybe Pathfinder Society play is not for you.
Characters risk their lives - a much higher price to pay. Not to mention diseases, curses, etc. These all cost gold that comes out of the character's pocket. Sometimes the risk is a little gold paid as a bribe.
Speaking to real life allegories:
John Compton mentioned Venture Officers above. I was a Venture-Captain for 2 years and had very little personal cash available for promoting PFS. So I did everything as cheaply as possible. Free websites. Limited trips to conventions outside Boston (about 6 per year including GenCon). Not a lot of GM rewards out of my pocket (Pathfinder bottle openers to those who went above and beyond. A compass for earning 2 stars. A PFS shot glass for earning 3.)
Still, I think I managed to spend about $600 each year solely for the purpose of supporting PFS in my region (mostly travel expenses). I'm positive most officers spend twice that much if not more.
If you were to factor in the time spent just on performing official duties ... well ... what I'm saying is that we are members - not employees. We are here because we believe in PFS. Not to get a paycheck.

Based on what you've said, if I were the GM, the CN Fighter would have been warned that if he CdG'd the prisoner his character would be seen as irredeemably Evil and removed from the campaign. It would be his choice to not be Evil or lose his character. Then I would also rule that the action broke the Don't be a Jerk rule and return the prisoner to life.
A lot of it is GM interpretation of the rules and how they choose to run the table. If it happened to me as a player I would make a point not to play with that player again and not to play under that GM again (at least with a character I cared about).
But that is based entirely on one side of the story. The GM and other player may have information to add that would change my opinion.
Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber
Generally, it is the responsibility of the person reporting the event to provide you (as a GM for the event) with a tracking sheet. They then collect the sheet after the game and report the table on Paizo.com
If you are the person responsible for reporting the event, you can download a tracking sheet from your My Pathfinder Society section on Paizo.com. Under the GM/Event Coordinator tab where you create the event there is a link to "Download session sheets". This will give you a PDF with 3 tracking "sheets" on one page.

It's not hostility. It is frustration.
And just because you can play both characters at their respective levels, a level 2 Sorcerer that made it to level 2 as a 1st level Sorcerer, earned it. A player who purposely ran the character as a 20 Con Barbarian at level one in order to make it to level 2 and retrain the character into a level 2 Sorcerer is being cheesy.
Where is your pride in using your game mastery to play an unmodified character?
Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Sometimes you need to get found.
Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber
Sure, counter my general statement with a specific example that really is not an issue for anyone. Completely ignore the 20 CON Barbarian example above.
Completely miss my subtle point that discussing how to best take advantage of the level 1 retrain for maximum survivability at level one is probably not the best thing to do in order to keep the level 1 retrain rule in the campaign.
Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber
The level 1 retraining rule was added to allow players who realized they "made a mistake" with their build to fix it OR to allow players to "test drive" a class before committing to it without "losing" the Chronicles they already earned.
It was not added to allow min/maxers additional opportunities for their character build before level 2. That is just an unfortunate side-effect.
So while intentionally playing a different build at level one, purely for the game mechanic advantage it provides is not in the spirit of the rules, it is not disallowed.
That said, the campaign leadership is continually reviewing the effect certain rules have on the game and may decide that the intended benefit of a rule is not worth the power creep it adds to the game.
Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber
The proper term is GM as DM is a D&D trademark.
There is already a built-in reward to GMs for running adventures more than once.
They only have to buy the adventure once, so every time after the first that they run an adventure, they are spreading that initial cash outlay over more hours of gameplay. Also, as you mention, it gets easier to run the adventure and there is less prep time the more you run it, so you can "have fun" with the adventure more than you did the first time.
Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber
We should not be encouraging GMs to run PFS adventures cold. Players deserve better than that. And GMs should be given the time to properly prepare adventures.
Also, we should not give lazy GMs an excuse not to provide the players with any handouts from the adventure.

Need a Partner? Well look no further, you won't find anyone like this guy on any of the dating sites, only here at Critter Cavalry Rescue, where true love and match making is made. Partner probably got away following his nose, a true Sporting Group dog. He looks like a German Shorthaired Pointer in a smaller version, at his size of just 36 lbs. We put him at about 3 years of age, but he is still very mischievous and loves to steal your socks or a shoe now and again if you don't put the away. Partner is housetrained and takes himself outside through the dog door when he needs to. Sometimes at night you have to get him back inside, because he hears the coyotes howling and feels the need to answer to keep them at bay. Partner love to go on walks and especially likes to see where a scent will take him. He will pull in the direction of the scent instead of staying on the trail, but it's his walk too right? Partner settled right into his foster home and gets along with the other dogs, big and small, male and female. He is not dominant, rather a bit shy and loves attention and being petted. Don't you need a Partner like this in your life? PLEASE NOTE: Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.

Far Cry 3 narrative director Jason VandenBerghe has good news for those who found the Far Cry 3 E3 demo from the Ubisoft press conference to seem a little too scripted and constricting: enivornments will be "dense," but the actual scale of the game is going above and beyond the previous entries.
In an interview with British gaming magazine Edge, VandenBerghe says, "If you look at the vistas and the scale of Far Cry 1 and 2, take that and multiply it by ten." And if you remember how absolutely huge Far Cry 2 was, that's pretty dang big. Want to know just how that's going to work? Read more and find out!
"We're focusing on taking that scale and making it dense, so that around every corner there's something to find or see," VandenBerghe continued. "That's a key in open-world experiences. We ask ourselves: if there wasn't anyone to shoot in the game, could it still be fun?"
Judging by the gorgeous visuals and tech behind the game, I'm going to have to say yes. But I'm still grateful for my guns, thank you very much. VandenBerghe clarified that the moral choices in Far Cry 3 won't be a simple good vs. evil scenario.
"I don't think that's interesting," VandenBergh said. "I want to present the player with intense situations, and then I don't even want to watch what you do."
Well good, because I'm afraid I might not even care much to shoot the baddies in this title, Mr. VandenBergh. Judging by those gorgeous visuals and a promise of immense scale, I might just run around and smell the salts of the earth. But what about you? This message help assuage any fears or concerns you had about Far Cry 3?

Technology company Google has announced a tablet, the Nexus Seven.
The device will retail for $199, and features a seven-inch diagonal screen, significantly smaller than the iPad's 10-incher. It's actually exactly the same size as a Kindle Fire, probably the most well-known low-end tablet.
The device weighs 0.75 pound, compared with the Kindle Fire's 0.9 pound and the iPad's 1.44 pounds. So, almost half the weight of an iPad... and less than half the price as well: An iPad retails for $499.
The Nexus Seven runs a version of the Android operating system called "Jellybean," and is designed to work with Google Play, the company's game, movie, books and apps marketplace. Google also announced it will be selling, as opposed to only renting, movies from Google Play.
Google also unveiled a a new "social streaming device" called the Nexus Q that sends content from your PC to your TV and stereo. It can be controlled from Android phones and tablets.
The Nexus Q will available in July in the U.S. initially and sell for $299.

A bit of a maze, this venue has a really urban grime vibe to it, in a good way! The many rooms and endless stair cases all have a different feel and atmosphere to them. I've mostly been to Antichrist here, but the venue itself is one of my favourites. The staff are always amazing, friendly and quick on the bar.more
Came here the other night for Rumpus. Someone asked if I'd been to the venue before, and Electrowerkz sounded awfully familiar but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Then a mention of Slimelight. Oh yes, I used to come here nearly twenty years ago! Blimey. And the place is just as scummy as it used to be. In a good way, of course. A bit of scum never did anyone any harm.

If you're looking for a high end classy club, then maybe Electrowerkz isn't the place for you.

The House of Representatives Committee on Environment on Friday warned quarry operators in Ogun State not to allow their activities to constitute health hazards to their host communities.
The House committee also charged the quarry operators in the state to make their Corporate Social Responsibilities to their host communities a matter of priority.
The members of the committee, who visited Ogun State to assess the level of compliance with the appropriate laws, stated that the quarry operators must comply with the relevant laws regulating their activities.
The lawmakers at a meeting with all the quarry operators in Abeokuta, the state capital, discussed issues of environmental impact of their activities on the host communities, their level of compliance with the relevant environmental laws, future impact assessments, Corporate Social Responsibility, pollution and environmental degradations.
The leader of the delegation, Lanre Odubote, told newsmen that the visit was to enable both the operators and the National Assembly committee to exchange ideas on how to protect the health of the host communities.
Odubote stated that the National Assembly had wanted an area of synergy between the quarry operators and government in such a way that their activities would not constitute pollution and health hazards to the citizens.
Also speaking with newsmen after the meeting, another member of the committee, Debo Ologunagba, explained that the committee's visit as well as the tour of all the quarry sites was to enable the National Assembly to get first hand information about the level of interface as well as the acceptability of those quarry sites in their host communities.
Ologunagba stated that the committee had mixed feelings about their findings after their visit to all the quarries in the state.
He explained that the preliminary investigation of the committee revealed that the quarry operators needed to do more on their Corporate Social Responsibilities to the communities where they operate.
He lamented that the quarry companies have not fully complied with the requirements of the National Environmental Standards and Regulation Enforcement Agency, adding that schools, provision of potable water as well good roads provided by the quarry companies were absent.

Myself and KTE judge Ali Barrett went in Race Director Mark Wards car and by gosh he can drive fast! We completed the trip in under 24 hours and that includes a 2 hour ferry ride!
Arriving in Sylt the weather was scorching! Sunny and still. Not great news about the wind :/ All the competitors registered and we carried out n opening ceremony. Myself, Hannah Whiteley and George Dufty flew the British Flag
Unfortunately for the 3 days of competition there was just not enough wind to run the freestyle event. So sorry I do not have much to update you on! All of the racing was completed and those guys had a blast. Congrats to the winners.
Thank you to all the sponsors that made the event possible. We hope to come back next time and get some more wind.
Now I am off to Rhodes, Greece to deliver a Girls Camp.
Have fun on the water where ever you are.
Peace and Love.

He has done more than enough for them and surfing. if he wants to surf selected contests then we as fans and the other pros should thankful he is doing so – especially since he won last year and could have retired.

A: There's a group of scenes coming up in the next couple weeks with Elizabeth that really defines his feelings for her
Q: Good evening Tyler. Will Sam and Nikolas be sharing scenes anytime soon? #GH
A: nothing in scripts that I have so far.
Q: what would you like to see in the future for your character?
A: I'd like to see him get back to the Cassadine roots, engage in a power struggle with some of the other characters

|Thanks for sharing. I'm liking Niz this time around so I'm looking forward to seeing them and what happens to Quiz. I'm glad TC is back.
|May 5 2013, 10:15 PM Post #3
|Wow! Thanks for posting! So glad to see that TC is a #Cassel fan! I can't wait to see the upcoming scenes!!!
|May 5 2013, 11:31 PM Post #4
|Very Good Interview! Thanks so much for posting, Daytime.
|May 9 2013, 09:21 AM Post #5
Thanks for posting!
ITA with a lot of this---Tyler is right about the completely different energy of Niz this time around. I can tell both with this interview and his presence onscreen that he is very happy to be back at GH.
Can't wait to see Spencer back! Hope we see his great-grandma Lesley interact with Monica. I loved how Luke mentioned their rivalry this week. Ron definitely watched GH in the '80's.
|May 9 2013, 12:39 PM Post #6
|I like the energy between Nik and Liz this time around too. When Lucky was in the picture, the whole situation was way too Jerry Springer for me, but now I like it a lot. Especially since AJ slept with Carly and is keeping it from Liz, after she was honest with him about her kiss with Nik.

La Crosse's Washburn neighborhood now has a new green space to enjoy.
Members at Our Savior's Lutheran Church in La Crosse have been planning for a community garden behind the church's parking lot for the last year.
They raised roughly $9,000 to transform the space into a peace garden with a sitting area and three rain gardens
Organizers said the La Crosse community has seen an increase in drug use and violence in the past few years, including the shooting death of 20-year old Sara Hougom, who was shot and killed about a block away from the church.
They said they wanted to do something good for the community.
"We just needed some place that was peaceful," said Lois Losby of Our Savior's Lutheran Church. "With Sara's murder being so close to us and our church, we just felt like this was the perfect thing to do."
The community garden's transformation isn't complete yet. Organizers also hope to create a meditation labyrinth for the garden within the next year.

STEPHENVILLE, Texas — Senior forward John Davis scored 32 points and grabbed 15 rebounds and Tarleton State rallied from a 15-point deficit to edge Eastern New Mexico University 77-72 in a Lone Star Conference South Division men's game Saturday night.
In front of a crowd of nearly 3,000, Davis scored 24 of his points in the second half as the Texans (12-5, 1-1 South) improved to 12-0 at home this season and extended their homecourt winning streak at Wisdom Gym to 33 games, the third-longest active streak in NCAA Division II.
Junior guard Justin Redman-Trotter had a season-best 20 points for the Greyhounds (9-9, 3-1), who had a four-game winning streak snapped but maintained their division lead by one-half game over Midwestern State (13-5, 2-1), a 90-81 winner over West Texas A&M on Saturday.
The Hounds return home for a 7 p.m. game on Monday against the Buffaloes (10-8, 2-2).
ENMU coach Shawn Scanlan was disappointed to see the game get away late.
"We were the aggressors in the first half, but I really didn't think we played with the same aggressiveness in the second half," Scanlan said. "I knew they'd be ready to play us. In the first half, we showed indications that we were up to the task."
ENMU broke away from a 13-13 tie by outscoring the Texans 22-7 over a span of 8 1/2 minutes and led 35-20 after a basket by Ira Cross with 3:25 left in the half.
The margin stayed in double figures for most of the first 12 minutes of the half. The Texans never got closer than eight until back-to-back 3-pointers by Jeremy Gilbert made it 59-55 with under five minutes left.
Two free throws by Redman-Trotter kept the Hounds in front 61-57 with 4:07 to go, but Tarleton went on a 10-0 run — all by Davis, including a 3-pointer — for a 67-61 advantage with 2:15 left.
Tristan Largent added 14 points and Ira Cross came off the bench to add 10 for ENMU. Also in double figures for the Texans were Gilbert with 13 points and guard Mike Daniels with 12.
