28th president of the United States (1913–21), an American scholar and statesman best remembered for his legislative accomplishments and his high-minded idealism. Wilson led his country into World War I and became the creator and leading advocate of the League of Nations, for which he was awarded the 1919 Nobel Prize for Peace. During his second term the Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, giving women the right to vote, was passed and ratified. He suffered a paralytic stroke while seeking American public support for the Treaty of Versailles (October 1919), and his incapacity, which lasted for the rest of his term of office, caused the worst crisis of presidential disability in American history. (For a discussion of the history and nature of the presidency, see presidency of the United States of America.) Early life, education, and governorship Wilson's father, Joseph Ruggles Wilson, was a Presbyterian minister who had moved to Virginia from Ohio and was the son of...

A personal injury lawyer works with clients who have suffered a physical or emotional injury, usually by accident or mistake. They cover cases such as car accidents, botched surgery, and harassment. Personal injury attorneys know how the insurance claim process works, they know what evidence to gather, and they know how to calculate and present a claim for damages. Many personal injury attorneys take cases on a contingency basis, which means they receive an agreed-upon percentage of the payment you receive, also called the personal injury settlement. If you don't recover any money, they don't get paid their fee. Personal injury lawyers also know how to defend you if someone thinks an injury is your fault.

Puerto Rico's big 1st inning keeps Team USA at bay, onto semifinals
If I asked "are you watching the World Baseball Classic"?
Chacin took the loss for Venezuela.
In 2016, he surprised the Brewers with a 2.81 ERA, 3.2 BB/9 and 7.4 SO/9 over 121 2/3 innings, emerging as one of the steadier arms on their pitching staff and making a compelling case for an encore performance in 2017.
In 2013, the teams played three times. But the WBC technical committee determined the tiebreaker - runs allowed per defensive inning - meant Italy (1.05) and Venezuela (1.11) advanced and not Mexico (1.12).
Chacin reached his pitch count two batters later after walking Jose Reyes, leaving after allowing one run and three hits, striking out three and walking three.
The U.S. had a very lackluster performance offensively. He allowed three straight singles to Lucroy, Alex Bregman and Ian Kinsler with one out in the third before Jones grounded into a double play. Well, everybody on this team is a star, so you've got your stars sitting on the bench. After a third inning sacrifice fly by Ender Inciarte, Venezuela did not score until a ball hit by Rougned Odor in the seventh snuck over the right-center fence. So when you know you're participating in this event, you know what you have to bring. Then came the first inning, and the hit parade. That is a great third baseman. He would not return to the game.
Puerto Rico will play the Netherlands in the first semifinal game Monday at Dodger Stadium, and its victory over the USA rendered the final game of pool play Saturday afternoon meaningless because of the way the other games have played out. The NFL suspended New York Jets tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins without pay for the first two games of the season for violating the league's substance abuse policy. After a Nolan Arenado fly out, Christian Yelich hit a single up the middle.

But Pulis reckons the Frenchman is determined to stay beyond the summer. It is just about making sure you stay with them and stay in the game .
Now, Team USA must beat the Dominican Republic on Saturday to avoid elimination on its home soil. Next up to the plate was Eric Hosmer.
The emotional part is the biggest difference because even playing these games, the emotions are a little bit different than a normal spring training. "After that swing from Jonesy, it just seemed like the energy in the dugout just kind of shifted to our side and really got things sparked up for our club".
Gonzalez said he spoke with Kim Ng, Major League Baseball's senior vice president for baseball operations, and was told the WBC technical committee was not responsible for the information disseminated on Twitter by the WBC and MLB. What had been a quiet night in San Diego quickly became a stadium engulfed in celebration.
On Tuesday, they could have covered the upper deck of Petco Park with a tarp and still had plenty of seats left over.
But then Stroman settled down Team USA fought back.
Stroman, by the way, has Puerto Rican ancestry but said he wanted to play for the US because he is an American. "We kept checking him in every inning to make sure that he's not getting exhausted during the game, and he did OK". So, it doesn't get any easier.

Data Quality: Perception v. Reality
October 2009
Graham Rhind
A survey, commissioned from MCC International Ltd by Capscan and conducted in August 2008, provides a mixed picture of data quality management in the organisations surveyed.
A full copy of the survey report can be downloaded from www.grcdi.nl/whitepapers.htm or www.capscan.com/white_papers.aspx
Reality still lags considerably behind the rhetoric.
Today, many organisations still face huge challenges in terms of managing data. Practical operational problems like keeping data up-to-date and accurate, making sure it is secure, well managed, and compliant remain the primary concerns for these businesses. For these organisations, successful handling of such problematic data issues would bring the desired benefits of improved operational efficiency and revenue opportunities, reduced costs, and the resulting greater customer satisfaction.

CLASSICAL VIEW; 'Black Rider' Gives Old Songs a Bitter Twist
By Edward Rothstein
Published: December 5, 1993
"It's so nice to hear all the old songs, isn't it?" says the devil at the close of "The Black Rider," the brilliant and disturbing theatrical collaboration among Tom Waits, Robert Wilson and William S. Burroughs that ended its short run at the Brooklyn Academy of Music last week. The audience laughs, because Mr. Waits's score includes many deft imitations of innocent old songs. But they are far from old and very far from innocent.
Mr. Waits has made a pop career combining an ominous, despairing sneer with a bemused sentimentality; here all genres become subversive. Gospel turns demonic; vaudeville turns acidic; 1930's ballads turn morbid. Some of the best songs sound familiar, as if known for a long while; on closer examination they seem to be walking around in drag. Styles associated with comfort and sentimentality are inverted, the way David Lynch twisted the warm innocence of the pop standard "Blue Velvet" into an expression of sexual perversion in his film of that name.
The entire theater piece, in fact, offers old things in different dress -- cliches with a twist -- though not always in the ways intended. It takes its inspiration from the familiar German folk story that inspired Weber's "Freischutz": the tale of a man who, to succeed as a marksman and win his bride, casts magic bullets with the help of the devil.
Weber wrote a potboiler that was meant to make a case for popular German opera. The mannerisms of Romantic melodrama are heard in the score: the sunny music of the rustic peasants and lovers is in major keys, contrasting with minor harmonies for the devil. Though we know that the last of the magic bullets belongs to the devil, that it will kill not the target animal but the bride, Weber declines the gambit; he lets the lovers live happily ever after, as if the entire opera were simply an innocent entertainment.
"The Black Rider" overturns that approach; its main ambition is to restore the tale's horror. The costumes vaguely recall the 1820's period of Weber's opera, but little else remains. There is no distinction between natural and supernatural. The devil is a leering, sexually ambiguous figure. But so are many of the other characters, who look as if they had just escaped from Bedlam. The premise -- that a man must become a marksman to marry -- is taken literally. The bridal chamber is filled with carcasses of bloody animals. Weber turns nightmarish.
Unwittingly, though, this transformation gives "The Black Rider" yet another set of cliches: not innocent but polemical. The real ancestor of this work may be not Weber's opera but John Gay's "Beggar's Opera," which in 1728 played an iconoclastic role in London. It passed over the typical escapades of royalty in favor of the actions of the city's criminal underworld. It deliberately undercut the dominant operatic style; an excerpt from Handel's "Rinaldo" was satirically sung by a chorus of thieves.
The work was designed to undermine. Its polemical charms were updated in "The Threepenny Opera," in which Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht entertained the bourgeois audience of Weimar Germany with a related tale. Weill captured the spirit of the German cabaret; the catchy, mordant songs satirized the very audience that gave them acclaim.
"The Black Rider," which had its premiere in 1990 in Hamburg, Germany, is in the same genre. It doesn't deal with the sordid aspects of society's underworld like its predecessors. It doesn't have to. It finds enough horror in the petit bourgeois citizens of Weber's universe. Its innocent music, which invokes folk and cabaret antecedents, carries knives. Mr. Burroughs, in his libretto, strikes standard avant-garde attitudes without irony, even interjecting an extraneous monologue in which a Hollywood mogul buys exclusive rights to "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" from Hemingway. ("This is a classic, Ernie.") Commercial deals are, apparently, as much a devil's bargain as the one the marksman is making in his attempts to come up with fresh carrion.
THIS SHOW, IN FACT, IS STEEPED in cliches that scorn bourgeois life and commerce and find in them the stench of blood. But "The Black Rider," to its credit, gives the cliches yet another turn. Mr. Wilson's staging and Mr. Waits's unsettling music keep the polemic floating in a space in which everything becomes open to question. This is a comic work: there are silent-movie sound effects, recurrent sneezes (during which the devil can enter the human soul) and a campy descent of the devil from the ceiling. There is a silliness in the midst of the show's horror and muted anger that, combined with Mr. Wilson's lovely stage images and the ritualistically gesturing characters, adds irony to these familiar avant-garde sentiments. The result is a post-modern nihilistic carnival, heard in fake calliope music and seen in vaudevillian sideshows.
But a powerful human sympathy emerges in the midst of the carnival. The fate of these odd beings becomes strangely moving. What makes this show so original is not its dark inversion of the pleasing familiarities of "Der Freischutz," but the twists it gives the standard avant-garde cliches. It is balanced on a razor's edge of attitude. That makes it one of the most persistently insinuating and affecting musical works of recent seasons.

5 Ways to Expand Your Music Horizons
5 Ways to Expand Your Music Horizons from Overstock.com. Our guides provide customers with 5 ways to expand their music horizons.
Love me some Steel Panther! Came a few days earlier in the mail than expected. Great band and music for lovers of the 80s. Def check them out....
ITEM#: 12255797Personnel: Allison Robertson (vocals, guitar); Michael Starr , Joe Lester (vocals, background vocals); Corey Taylor, Matt Nelson , Justin Hawkins, Michael Lord, Scott Ian, M. Shadows (vocals); Satchel (guitar, background vocals); Stix Zadinia (drums, background vocals); Lexxi Foxxx (background vocals). Audio Mixer: Jay Ruston. Recording information: Clear Lake Audio; Paramount Recording; Sage & Sound Studio, Hollywood, CA; The Recording Studio West; TRS West. Photographer: Neil Zlozower. Like Spinal Tap and several other acts before it, Steel Panther found success mocking the excesses of '80s hair metal while accurately re-creating the genre's musical style. The Los Angeles-based, wig n' spandex-clad quartet delivered a particularly low-brow take on the mock-metal genre with its debut album FEEL THE STEEL. With groan-inducing, intentionally politically incorrect song titles such as "Asian Hooker," "Fat Girl," and "Eatin' Ain't Cheatin'," the disc may not be the most clever entry into the comedy rock sweepstakes but it is one of the most authentic-sounding, perfectly re-creating the whammy bar squeals, David Lee Roth-esque yelps, and pounding double bass drum licks of its source material.

Residents of Akinyele Local Government Area of Oyo State have decried the neglect by the tate government in area of provision of social amenities in the council.
The people complained about the neglect at a Town Hall meeting organised by Justice, Development and Peace Commission (JDPC), Catholic Archdiocese of Ibadan, at the Day Care's Centre, Local Government Secretariat, Moniya, Ibadan, recently.
According to them, "there is no potable water, our roads are bad, there is no conducive teaching and learning environment in our public schools and recalcitrant behaviour of the students, among other things."
Speaking at the meeting, Chairman, House Committee on Local Government and Chieftaincy Matters in the Oyo State House of Assembly, Honourable Bolaji Badmos, said it is constitutional and obligatory for Nigerians voted into office to render account of stewardship to constituents regularly.
Honourable Badmus, representing Akinyele II State Constituency, stressed that such gathering affords political office holders the opportunity to brief constituents properly on their mandate and also feel pulse on government policies and programmes.
The lawmaker highlighted his various landmark contributions in the assembly which includes, the Community Service Bill, the Administration of Criminal Justice Bill; a bill to establish the Oyo State residents' registration agency and connected purposes, among others.
He further disclosed that as Chairman, House Committee on Local Government and Chieftaincy Matters, he had overseen the amendment of the Local Government Laws of the state to give room for the creation of 35 newly created Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) in order to enhance development across the state.
Speaking at the event, the Chairman of the council, Mr Ope Salami, solicited the understanding and support of the people for the government.
According to him, "To come out of recession, there is need to improve on internally generated revenue; which can only be achieved by carrying out our constitutional duties through regular payment of taxes and cooperation with the government to serve us better."
Speaking earlier, the JDPC Programme Officer in charge of Democracy and Governance, Mr Jide Bamgbose, emphasised that lawmakers could perform effectively only if they have been able to animate their constituents and represent them effectively.
He further disclosed that the platform was organised to bridge communication gap between the people and their leaders and to provide platform for the people to articulate their positions on government's policies and programmes.

Gold River is located on the West Coast of Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada. This small village is the gateway to Nootka Sound and Tahsis. Gold River has a population of approximately 1400 people and is a popular destination for fishing, camping, hiking, kayaking, sightseeing and more.
Located at the entrance to Gold River on Hwy 28, the Gold River Visitor Centre is housed in a beautiful heritage building. This is a great place to stop and stretch your legs after the long trip across the island. Washroom facilities, pay phone, sani-station and potable water. The Visitor Centre has lots of free information and maps for Gold River, Tahsis and Nootka Sound. You can learn about all the things to do in town and tourist locations nearby.
If still available, a pamphlet you should pickup is called "Tahsis - The Road to Adventure" which contains a wide-range of information between Gold River and Tahsis, everything from hiking the Nootka Trail, exploring the Upana Caves, Windsurfing, Kayaking and more!
We also recommend getting the "Gold River, Jewel of the Isle" if available. Its a small paper book produced by the Village of Gold River and contains lots of information about local businesses, history of Gold River and directions to popular tourism locations.

Oil on canvas painting of a strong and fierce female Roman warrior. I have used lots of metallic paints throughout this painting. The painting is done by using a palette knife and lots of thick oil paint, so there's lots of texture which can't be seen very well in the photos.The painting is signed both on the front and the back.

Nearly always pop in here 4 a coffee or bite 2 eat on route 2 and from holidays. On Bank Hol Mon we only had coffees and a milkshake, good coffee if a little 2 strong 4 my liking. Good service and dog friendly which is a bonus.
The staff were helpful, unobtrusive and welcoming.
We contacted the tea rooms to ask if we could use them as a mini-office to hold a team meeting mid-way between all of our offices. They made sure we had a table to work on, provided tea and coffee during the morning and afternoon, and laid a nearby table for our lunch...
A surprise awaits those who may travel through Llandovery and call at this tea shop. We only had time for coffee and cake but it was excellent. Menu looks good value and food we saw being served to others looked scummy. Look forward to return with a little more time.
Popped on a sunny day on the off chance and sat outside. Had lovely tasty food and great coffee. Sevice was with a smile, highly recommmend. Will definitely return.
My partner and I were passing through Llandovery around lunchtime so decided to find a place to eat. Penygawse caught our eye.
We like to eat gluten free and so we were both really thrilled to see several really tasty gluten free options.
Nothing was too much trouble and the staff were incredibly efficient and friendly.
The cakes, also some...
Great breakfast in here. Very helpful and friendly staff. I would definitely eat here again. Lots of these little cafes to choose from but this is one of the best.
A wonderful homemade fry up with fresh barista coffee all made very quickly and to a high quality. What more could you ask for?
The best coffe I have had in this country outside of Venice. They use Nairobi Coffee Company beans here.
Why ? Because the owners are fully trained passionate barristas. They could follow the rest of the sheep by serving the usual poor commercial coffee.... But they choose to offer and serve the very best.
If you are a true coffee...
What a lovely place to take some time out...lovingly restored tearoom/ cafe serving great food and cakes. We chose toasted teacake, bara brith and coffees...absolutely superb in lovely comfortable surroundings, and with superb, friendly service. We were there at wrong time of day for breakfasts but would certainly want to give them a try next time we're there. A lovely...
Was just ok. Feel it's half hearted now to how it used to be. Waitress was a bit off maybe tired as it was end of the day. Cheese and bacon roll but not much bacon. Prob won't go back as there is other places in town

You will need Adobe Reader (the latest version is recommended) installed on your computer in order to open and print the labels. You can get Adobe Reader here (a new window will open so you can download it without leaving this page).
If you want to open the file in your browser window and print straight away, just click on the link. However, if you want to download the file to view and print later, then right-click on the link and choose "Save Target As" or "Save File As." Then select where you want to save the file on your hard drive.When you are ready to print, open the downloaded file, and select the "Print" option from the Adobe Reader menu. I designed these labels using a template from Avery. They are aligned to print on Avery Label Sheet 5360 or equivalently sized product. Alternatively, you can print them on a solid sheet of adhesive paper and then use a straight edge and a cutter to cut them out. To print all of the labels you'll need two sheets. The third page of the file is a translation of the names from French to English which you may want to print out on a regular piece of paper. If you should need further assistance in printing your labels, please do not hesitate to contact me and I'll do my best to help you.

The food is heavy, buts tastes great. I can literally feel my body getting heavier as I eat... possibly enjoy the taste too much.
We love WIMPY foods and their coffee. We travel a lot and very often go to WIMPY. But the one at Reds Mall is pathetic.

I love Wimpy and we eat breakfast @ their chain all over SA but this was the worst experience ever not worth the money.

We miss our Wimpy breakfast! Value for money for the family. We enjoyed lovely times catching up with friends. This is definitely a place designed to be kid-friendly.
Although it is a busy restaurant you can always expect to get a smile from the waiters and staff. The food is good and the service great! Just know it is a busy, busy place with lots of buzzing around.
The food is prepared very quickly and tastes really good. The service is also very good, at any Wimpy around the country.

This summer I've been noting how long and lanky Grace had been getting. Extremely so. So much so, that I finally realized her shorts were actually way too small, not that she'd grown quite so much.
Miss Particular wanted khaki elastic waist shorts that looked like they zipped up. I slightly altered an Ottobre pattern to give her something close to her favorite too-small shorts. I thought it was fun to add the piping, and the back pockets are cute (huge, but cute) with the elastic gathering the top hem.
I don't think she was keen on all the neat details, though, since she didn't start wearing them until I sneakily retired her old shorts.
And since I try to make everything in multiples, a denim pair was in order, this time with rainbow colored rick rack.
I added a button to make the faux fly look a little less faux.
These are great shorts. The pattern has these as bermuda length with additional trims at the hems, but I like the shortened length here.
And, yay, I was able to use up some less than half yard lengths of otherwise useless bottomweights.
Beach Boulevard Bermudas: Ottobre 3-2011-29.
Denim and khaki leftover from previous projects.

I came to Gigi's for my sons birthday party with some his teenage friends.
We ordered chocolate chip cookie dough cupcakes. The chocolate cupcakes were also delicious! The icing was perfectly sweet...just right for a Saturday birthday party!!!

This is an amazing bake shop. They have great selection of muffins and breads, a favorite of mine is their red velvet version. I am very pleased with their store decorations as well. The staff are all pleasant and friendly too.

Did you find this review helpful?
Their cupcakes have just the right amount of sweetness. Their icing is also the same. I prefer it to be icing rather than buttercream and their topping is exactly that. I love Gigi's for this fun and good pastries that they offer.

2015 Research
Economics of Net Promoter, 2015
Net Promoter Score (NPS) is a popular metric that companies use to analyze their customer experience efforts, but how does it actually relate to loyalty? We asked thousands of consumers to give an NPS to 293 companies across 20 industries, and then we examined the connection between NPS and four key areas of loyalty. We found that compared to detractors, promoters are more than five times as likely to repurchase from a company, more than five times as likely to forgive a company if it makes a mistake, more than seven times as likely to try a new offering shortly after its introduction, and that they recommend the company to about four times as many people. This analysis examines the loyalty behaviors of promoters, passives, and detractors across 20 industries: airlines, appliance makers, auto dealers, banks, rental car agencies, computer and tablet makers, credit card issuers, fast food chains, health plans, hotel chains, insurance carriers, Internet service providers, investment firms, parcel delivery services, retailers, software firms, supermarkets, TV service providers, utilities, and wireless carriers. The percentage of promoters who are likely to repurchase ranges from 96% for retailers, fast food chains, and supermarkets down to 77% for airlines, while the percentage of those who are likely to forgive ranges from 72% for computers & tablets, utilities, and supermarkets down to 51% for airlines. Meanwhile, the percentage of those who are likely to try new offerings ranges from 70% for major appliances and software firms down to 52% for banks. Ultimately, if a company wants to benefit from using NPS as a key metric, it must focus on improving customer experience, not obsessing over the metric itself.

Christy's Topping Top Hat, pounds 200 in black, pounds 150 in grey. Available from Simpson, Piccadilly, London W1, tel: 0171 734 2002 ext 3310. Christy hats are also available nationwide, call 0161 480 8731 for your nearest stockist.Reuse content
With just over five weeks to go until Ascot, why not buy the most spiffing of hats, the top hat? Christy, founded in 1773 by Miller Christy, is the only manufacturer in the world that still produces the traditional top hat. Top hats became fashionable in the early 19th century; one of the first was the kite-high dandy, which was a rather impractical seven and a half inches. Today's versions are a more modest five inches. I think they're splendid - very Darcy. You need to get a move on if you want one for Ascot, though - Christy top hats need to be adjusted individually for a perfect fit. AB

The Ultimate Language Arts Cheat Sheets
Do you struggle with remembering all of the different parts of speech, let alone the difference between a metaphor and a simile? Look no further! Make learning easier with The Ultimate Language Arts Cheat Sheets!
Use these language arts printables as a quick "cheat sheet!" Each sheet is designed as a compressed resource so you can quickly find the information you need, when you need it. Plus, each sheet is brightly colored and eye-catching, without being too cluttered.
For durability, you can laminate the sheets, or compile them in a a binder with plastic protectors.
When I was first learning the parts of speech, I remember my textbook going too quickly for me to keep up. Getting tired of flipping through my book trying to find the definition of "preposition," I made myself a sheet that had everything I needed to know on just a few pages!
Table of Contents:
- Parts of Speech: Part 1
- Parts of Speech: Part 2
- Punctuation
- The Four Types of Sentences
- Parts of Sentences: Part 1 (Basic)
- Parts of Sentences: Part 2 (Advanced)
- How to Diagram Sentences: Part 1
- How to Diagram Sentences: Part 2
- Figurative Language
- Common Homophones
- Which word should I use?condo
- Transitional Words
- Words to use instead of "very"
- Words to use instead of "said"
- Writing an Essay
What others are saying:
I love the way the pages are laid out with nice bright colors and clean lines. They are eye-catching without being cluttered, distracting, or cutesy. This is a great reference for upper elementary and middle school students that will grow with them thanks to the variety of templates. -Rebecca, Edventures at Home
I wish I had this cheat sheet when I was in school! Not only does Samantha clearly explain and define each part of speech, but she gives easy to follow examples. These truly are the Ultimate Language Arts Cheat Sheets! -Meeghan, Sight and Sound Reading
This is exactly what I have been looking for! I have been wanting a language arts resource that my kids can easily refer to when working on their grammar and writing, and Samantha's cheat sheets totally fit the bill. I especially love the pages about diagramming sentences – a great visual. Now, I just hope Samantha will put together a resource with math cheat sheets! -Sarah, My Joy-Filled Life
I have printed them off, laminated them and am holding them together with a ring at the moment. My boys are loving having them when completing their Language Arts curriculum. -Stacey, A Moment in our World

In today's era, every broad-minded person searches for a mate or a partner to be in relationship with. It may be a person with whom there is a relationship or just a crush, each one of them have their merits and demerits. But yes, I can say one thing that being in a relationship is far better than having just a crush.
As you rather don't need to be extra conscious during a bond than having a crush. Check the list of all those things that you can relate with your relationship status.

It's a special, unique and one-of-a-kind fragrance that we made especially for Zoe and that we will never sell to anyone else, and since we know how much she loved Christmas, the brief to our New York perfumer was, "create a fragrance that Mrs Claus might wear on date night..."

Beast-Possessed Soul
|General Info
|Central Pthumeru Chalice
|Tempering Blood Gemstone (2) or Adept Blood Gemstone (2)
|Bottom of the Healing Workshop Tower
|Beast Rune
Beast-Possessed Soul is a Boss in Bloodborne.
Beast Possessed Soul Information
- It is similar in appearance to the Loran Cleric found in Aling Loran Chalice.
- Primarily utilizes pyromancy and melee attacks, can grow frenzied if grappled.
- It may also appear as a regular enemy that respawns in higher difficulty dungeons.
- Central Pthumeru Chalice (Layer 1)
- Ailing Loran Chalice (Layer 1)
- Bottom of the Healing Workshop Tower
- Blood Echoes (2853)
- Radial Blood Gemstone (2)
- Beast Rune (Healing Workshop Tower)
Combat Information
- Weak to Serrated but unlike the regular variant, not weak to Fire.
- The Beast-possessed Soul utilizes a few fire-based attacks. Most commonly, it will channel and throw 2 fireballs at the hunter (low or no AoE).
- Pungent Blood Cocktail distracts the beast-possessed soul briefly. Might require being in shorter range than Blood-starved Beast (might just be because of erratic movement).
- The Beast-possessed Soul usually does a succession of 5 or 6 swipes in a row, which can be easily parried. It would continue the assault even if the hunter backs off and it whiffs.
- Not only Blacksky Eye can cancel out its fireball projectile, whenever it get it repositions itself, one may exploit this and stagger it over and over again.
- Do not let the grapple or bite be connected, or else the Beast-possessed Soul will grow frenzied by having a taste of blood.
- It also has a lengthy parry window during its right hand leaping attack. Simply shoot in the middle of his leap.
- If encountered in a room with pillars the fireballs can destroy some pillar if you try hiding behind them
|Attack Name
|Attack Description & Counter
|Claw Combo
|Back away and get a free hit at the end, or wait til second to last hit, dodge around, charge hit. Tough to get full charge. Riposte possible. try backing away and shooting when clawing. It has fast horizontal swipe and slow vertical slash variant.
|Charged grapple, if connected, it will bite you and go frenzied.
|A sudden bite, if connected, it will go frenzied.
|Fire Spray
|90 degree cone. Comes from left to right (your pov).
|Fire Balls
|Hurls one or two fireballs toward you, it can be cancelled out with Blacksky Eye.
|Fire Punch
|Charges a slow but heavy punch with small fire explosion at the end. It does high damage but is very easy to dodge. When this enemy is encountered in thight corridors of high level dungeons this attack is much more dangerous than in open boss arenas.

Attack missing from list?05 Jul 2016 08:54
I don't know if someone already said this, but this boss also has a grab attack. He bites you and blissfully drinks your blood before becoming charged up and red (similar to foetid enemies)
same creature05 Jul 2016 08:54
Location needs to be updated. He's not only found in dungeons. You can find a similar creature at bottom of the healing church workshop. He is not a boss, he is more like a "mini-boss" like the hostile hunters (normal but though enemy that dosent respawn)
1st layer ailing loran05 Jul 2016 08:54
found him on he first layer ailing loran chalice as a boss, and a glitch occurred during the fight. He tried to use the dual fireball throw spell while on a destroyed pillar, the second one hit the top of the pillar, and after casting he was stuck there. my first visceral attack wasn't even able to knock him free, and he couldn't turn around to attack me.
Easy strategy in Chalice Dungeon05 Jul 2016 08:54
Assuming you fight it in a room with pillars, here's an easy way to beat it.
Step 1: Counter and V.Atk.
Step 2: Run away and hide behind a pillar, out of sight
Step 3: It'll try to find you, seemingly get bored, and then walk back to its starting position
Step 4: Walk up and V.Atk. it again.
Step 5: Repeat 2-4 until dead.ReplyReplies (2)

How to MLG this boss05 Jul 2016 08:54
This is by far, the most easy-to-parry boss in the game. All you have to do is just fire at him when he is attacking.ReplyReplies (2)
Attack Patterns05 Jul 2016 08:54
If both hands light up it willfling 2 fireballs, one hand seems to be a flame swath, and if it pulls a fist back and holds it with NO flames... Dodge. He has a flame attack he will pull occasionally where he charges up an explosive punch. With 1000 hp and decent defences it did around 950 or so, so is probably meant to finish off or one-hit.

Other than the flame moves he can do a 4 swipe combo with good tracking on the 4th hit. He has a few swipe combos other than that, but strafing works fine.

Boss has spawned on multiple occasions in a room with oil on the floors, so be careful of your footing.ReplyReplies (9)

One of my more memorable fights05 Jul 2016 08:54
I fought him in Ailing Loran and surprisingly I found him to be one of my favourite fights. It was somehow tense and I remember coming close to dying, particularly after his bite attack. The way he swallowed my hunter's blood and seemed almost possessed by it was terrifying. The music only added to the fight perfectly. The only other fight that comes close is the second to last boss in the game fought upon a field of white flowers. (I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't beaten the game yet.)

Ludwig +10 and Fire Paper + Molotovs05 Jul 2016 08:54
I'm pretty leveled up, I used my 10+ Ludwig, Fire Paper and Oil and Molotov combos and this was still a pretty intense fight, he was very aggressive and I had to watch my stamina alot. I feel like bolt could have been more effective, for some reason it seemed like fire wasn't that great, considering he's using pyromancy, he might be resistant to fire, even though he's a beast...ReplyReplies (1)
Oh my god05 Jul 2016 08:54
He's using our one advantage fire well I'm scared
Cooparator05 Jul 2016 08:54
I used him in the chalices to killed or distract other enemies he seems to be different than other enemies and will attack anyone or anything so long they are within agro range very useful against the witches and their summons as he can kill them in one hit
Easy Cheesy05 Jul 2016 08:54
For those having trouble with the Beast-possesed Soul in the Ailing Loran Chalice, just cheese it. Grab your best physical attack weapon (surprisingly, fire does less), throw on the Oedon Writhe and Blood Rapture runes, then just visceral attack over and over. His attacks are more often than not very easy to parry, and even if you miss you stagger him. And with the runes, you gain HP and QS bullets with every visceral, so you shouldn't have any problem running low on bullets or health.

Model Michael Girgenti Files Paternity Lawsuit Against Kourtney Kardashian, Wants Custody Of Mason Disick
Girgenti suggested the star's son Mason, now three, was born nine months after their fling, and he demanded a DNA test in a bid to find out whether he is the boy's father.
The lawsuit claims that Girgenti and Kardashian had a one-night stand in March, 2009, nine months before her son Mason was born.
Girgenti better watch out, because if I know Kris Jenner, she's most likely already put out a hit on him. NO ONE comes between Kris and the Kardashian money!
"After [Mason] was born, and I saw photos of him, I began to wonder," Girgenti told In Touch magazine. "I would definitely want to acknowledge Mason if he's my kid – he deserves to know his real father."
He is now requesting joint custody and also wants the judge to order DNA tests for Kourtney, Scott, Mason and him.
This guy has some balls. What this all really comes down to is the welfare of Mason. I mean, the likelihood of Michael Girgenti being the father is minimal, but if he is, this is going to rock little Mason and the entire Kardashian world and franchise.
Your move Kourtney!

Untreated Obesity & Diabetes increase the chances of early death:
Severe obesity is associated with a large number of health problems in addition to Type 2 diabetes. A review of more than 1.4 million participants in prospective studies largely from North America, Europe and Australia show a consistent progressive rise in the mortality hazard ratios with increasing BMI. (Berrington de et al. Body mass index and mortality among 1.46 million white adults. N Engl J Med 2010; 363:2211–2219)
A similar analysis by the Prospective Studies Collaboration found the risk of diabetes-related death was quadrupled for morbidly obese individuals (Whitlock G et al. Body mass index and cause-specific mortality in 900 000 adults: collaborative analyses of 57 prospective studies. Lancet 2009;373: 1083–1096)
Obesity & Diabetes Surgery prolong overall survival:
Follow-up of participants in the Swedish Obese Subjects Study after an average of 11 years found that bariatric surgery was associated with a 29% reduction in all-cause mortality after accounting for sex, age and risk factors in this severely obese group. (Sjostrom L et al. Effects of bariatric surgery on mortality in Swedish obese subjects.N Engl J Med2007;357: 741–752)
Another study also has confirmed this mortality advantage when compared with community matched control subjects. (Adams TD et al. Long-term mortality after gastric bypass surgery. N Engl J Med2007;357: 753–761)
Specific mortality reductions in the operated group were 56% for coronary artery disease, 92% for diabetes and 60% for cancer when compared with matched controls. Bariatric surgery also led to a specific reduction in cancer incidence in women. (Sjostrom L et al. Effects of bariatric surgery on cancer incidence in obese patients in Sweden. Swedish Obese Subjects Study. Prospective, controlled intervention trial. Lancet Oncol 2009; 10:653–662)
Surgery improves overall quality of life:
Many studies have demonstrated major improvements in health-related quality of life following surgery using both generic and obesity-specific quality-of-life instruments. (Kolotkin RL. Two-year changes in health-related quality of life in gastric bypass patients compared with severely obese controls. Surg Obes Relat Dis2009;5: 250–256)

The wind blows by and whisper his words
His non-existence in this world
makes them hard to hear
The memory of him is stil so clear
Those empty eyes
Those eyes of death
I can hear his laugh in the sunshine
I can see his stern face in the rain
I can smell his aftershave
feel his smooth face from kissing him on the cheek
I remember him most in the stars
Their simplicity explains his
Their extraordinary mystery echoes his
He is everywhere
and in everything

roads to follow

I'm stuck
don't know which way to break loose
No one can help
I have to stay in this vortex of solitude

- FARMERS INSURANCE GROUP16.Sep 2016
- Employee
What I like about the company
Not very much.
Not very much.
Loyalty means nothing to the top management.
There used to be but they have continued to eat away at it. Forcing people to move etc.
It is great as long as you agree with them.
Unfortunately promotions now are slanted the other way. In other words some women have been given leadership positions with zero knowledge of the job requirements. If they are properly prepared for the position then by all means promote them.
Senior management does not value the "worker" they have tried to move people out of positions when they have been there a long time.
Behavior based performance is used. VERY subjective and allows them to rate you lower.
People within your team are great!
Supervisors try to share what they know. However, there are many times they withhold known issues or upcoming layoffs.
