Acoda knew what she'd gotten herself into, yet her temper still frayed as she attempted to hack her opponent to pieces. At every cumbersome swing he weaved this way and that, slid between her too-wide stance and she struck nothing but air.
Just once strike, she thought as she swung with an enraged roar; the murderer side stepped, and with a roll reached for a leaky flask of ale lying on the deck, one blow and I WILL break your carcass in half, drunkard!
He emptied the flask in one powerful drag, then stumbled on the blood-slicked flooring. There, he was unbalanced--and Acoda raised the sword for the killing blow.
By the time Acoda's crashing strike met the wooden railing and blew it to splinters, the brigand had leapt aside and jumped back to the deck below. With a frown, Acoda jumped over the shattered railing and landed below.
Two leaping strides and she was upon him with a sweeping lateral slash. The gust of her strike alone tore the captain's hat from his head; the rest of him ducked to safety--and with a roll palmed a full bottle of rum; he sprung to his feet and weaved past Acoda.
She saw him fly past, mouth plastered to the bottle, even tried to move an arm to catch him--but watched with fury as the combat harness that kept the pirate from just running her through with a sword also staid her wrath.
Infurating! Acoda thought as she bit her lip so hard as to draw blood; she managed to turn and see him make a bee line for the lower decks, giggling like a drunken child as he went. Drunk before he even raised a sword to me!
A flick of the wrist worked the sword into an improvised heavy spear, and with a steady stance she aimed dead center at his back. When she had him dead to rights, Acoda launched it with all her augmented strength.
"Make a fool out of me, will you!?"
The instrument flew, almost tear clean through the drunkard--blade, hilt and all.

We consistently watch queue times for all areas of the game to try to identify problem areas where we can step in and make an improvement. Battleground queue times specifically tend to be a direct result of how many people are entering the queue at any given time from both the Horde and the Alliance within an entire region. While a number of factors can lead to longer queue times, faction interest in queuing for PvP tends to be the primary one. For that reason, for a limited time and only for select realms, we'll be allowing Horde characters to changed their faction to the Alliance for free.
These faction changes will be provided on a limited basis to players on realms where we see the greatest potential for making an impact. Guild leaders who want to faction-change their guild for free will first need to pay for the initial transaction, but will be granted a refund* if they change to the eligible faction within the free-faction-change time frame.
Free faction changes will be made available to Horde players on Bloodscalp, Firetree, and Frostmane. Eligible characters will be able to transfer from Horde to Alliance for approximately** two weeks beginning on June 24. If you're looking to transfer—and especially if you're a guild leader looking to initiate a guild faction change—we highly recommend taking advantage of this offer as soon as possible to avoid leaving anyone behind. For more information on faction change eligibility and limitations, please visit the support site here.
Players who wish to take advantage of the faction change will need to log in to the game to initiate the change.
We'll be providing updates on availability—as well as if this offer is extended to additional realms—here on the front page, so keep checking back. We look forward to your feedback, and we'll continue to work to help ensure you spend less time in a queue and more time slaughtering your enemies in glorious team combat.
* Eligible Guild Faction Change refunds will be automatically processed within 72 hours.
**Faction Change availability may either be shortened or extended depending on ongoing evaluation during the transfer period.
Battlegrounds and Arenas
Way to go Blizzard, taking efforts to make the Alliance playerbase even larger than horde than it was before. So many changes they've been making lately in their not so subtle goal of crushing the Horde by destroying its player base :/
I wish there was a way for DK's to do what DoubleAgent achieved. I thought it was bad ass having the locals fear you when you walked into the capital to chat with Garrosh or whoever on the Alliance. Throwing crap at you and stuff. I would have like to have kept that.
That takes a level of patience that will never have. Grats dude.

Location: National Soil Erosion Research2012 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416):
Objective 1. Advance the knowledge and improve mathematical representation of physical and biogeochemical processes affecting sediment, nutrient, and pesticide losses in runoff. Subobjective 1.1. Quantify surface and subsurface hydrologic effects on runoff chemical transport and ephemeral gully erosion. Subobjective 1.2. To identify practices that will optimize the benefits of no-tillage, while minimizing the risk of P losses via runoff, without sacrificing crop productivity. Subobjective 1.3. Identify practices to optimize drainage while maximizing nutrient removal efficiency. Objective 2. Protect off-site water quality by developing methods to reduce pollutant losses from agricultural fields and watersheds. Subobjective 2.1. Develop a BMP (Best Management Practice) to reduce nutrient and pesticide delivery from landscapes to drainage systems and water bodies and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Subobjective 2.2. Test the impact of established and new conservation practices at the field and watershed scale. Subobjective 2.3. Determination of optimal BMPs for control of runoff, sediment, and chemical losses from agricultural fields and watersheds, under existing and future climates. Objective 3. Improve soil erosion and water quality models for better assessment and management of cropland, forestland, and other managed lands. Subobjective 3.1. Improve our ability to predict soil erosion and water quality. Subobjective 3.2. Develop techniques that enhance field-to-watershed model parameterization for improved hydrologic model predictions. Subobjective 3.3. Develop methods to optimize chemical monitoring parameters to minimize costs and uncertainties associated with characterizing selected endocrine disrupting chemicals in artificially drained landscapes.
1b. Approach (from AD-416):
Laboratory studies will be used to gain process-level understanding on the effects of topographic driven surface water convergence and soil hydraulic gradient driven subsurface flow on sediment and chemical loadings. Landscape attributes affecting convergence of surface and subsurface flows will be used to validate the lab findings on conditions for channel initiation and chemical transport. To identify practices that optimize the benefits of no-till while minimizing risk of P losses, laboratory experiments will be used to test a large array of fertilizers and production practices. Plot scale experiments will be used to evaluate practices over a 5 to 10 yr period as they relate to soil and water quality. To identify practices that optimize drainage while maximizing nutrient removal, lab and streamside fluvaria will be utilized. Treatments of various materials including gravel and woodchips below stream sediment will be tested, as will use of various heights of sediment dams, to reduce nutrient losses in stream water. Controlled drainage on tile drained fields to optimize soil moisture status to reduce excess loss of nutrients, in combination with a soil amendment of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum will be evaluated. This project will continue to monitor runoff and water quality in subwatersheds of the St. Joseph River (SJR) in northeastern Indiana, and also conduct ecological studies through an SCA with Indiana-Purdue University Ft. Wayne and a cooperative project with ARS-Columbus. Detailed flow and pollutant data in the SJR subwatersheds are available from 2003-present, allowing for both uncalibrated, calibration, and validation studies with a number of watershed hydrology, sediment, and water quality models. The models can also be applied in a forecasting mode, to examine impacts of widespread or targeted placement and implementation of various land management practices (e.g. conservation tillage, different crop rotations, buffer strips, etc.) on predicted runoff and pollutant losses. Use of information from Global Environment Models will be downscaled to develop modified climate inputs to the Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) model. In-house and cooperative erosion model development, testing, and validation efforts will be conducted. Work will include maintenance of WEPP, including model scientific code, user interfaces, model databases, and user support. Cooperative efforts on development of a combined wind and water erosion model will be continued. A new WEPP-Water Quality model will be developed which will also allow examination of the impacts of projected future climate change on runoff, sediment, and chemical losses and how management practices to reduce these losses may change. Geostatistical scaling techniques will be applied and evaluated to allow linkage of various soil parameters (i.e., hydraulic conductivity, porosity) across scales ranging from a few hectares to subbasins of 10,000+ ha. Loading of endocrine disruptors and selected metabolites to the SJR will be examined for significant relationships between analytes. Through statistical correlation analysis, potential surrogate analytes will be identified.
3. Progress Report:
Substantial progress has been made on laboratory and field studies on this new project. A lab study on the effects of surface topography under a drainage condition was completed. A new laboratory recirculating flume using plastic tubing was constructed and has been undergoing testing for chemical movement (bromide tracer) from a saturated sand bed into overflowing water. In the National Soil Erosion Research Laboratory fluvarium, sediments with high hydraulic conductivity were tested to examine their impacts on chemical desorption and adsorption. Data collection was accomplished in Indiana and Kansas at field sites being used to study gully characteristics and development. Plots were established at the Throckmorton Purdue Agricultural Center to study how minimize soluble phosphorus losses from no-till farming. Soils from these plots have also been collected for use in a companion laboratory study. Field plots were established at the Purdue Davis Agricultural Center to study the effects of controlled drainage and gypsum soil amendment on crop production and water quality. Water flow and samples for nutrient and herbicide analyses were collected from field, ditch, and stream sites in the Upper Cedar Creek Watershed (UCCW) in northeastern Indiana. Weather in 2012 has been extremely hot and dry, thus number of water samples for analysis have been much less than in previous years. Three additional soil moisture and meteorological stations have been installed within the UCCW. Measured field to watershed scale soil moisture data has been obtained and processed for the 2011 European Space Agency SMOS remotely sensed soil moisture project that covers the UCCW. Validation of SMOS algorithms is in progress. Significant progress toward calibration/validation of Agricultural Policy Environmental EXtender (APEX) and application of the model to assess the impacts of conservation practices at the field scale has been made. Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is currently implementing and using a version of Wind erosion Prediction System (WEPS) containing the WEPP hydrology/erosion code. Cooperative projects are underway with the Forest Service, Washington State University, Iowa State University, and the University of Iowa on new WEPP interfaces. The St. Joseph River Watershed Conservation Effects Assessment Program Watershed Assessment Study (CEAP WAS) has been selected as one of two benchmark watersheds to be used for a multi-Agency effort to assess the impacts of conservation practices on environmental quality at the watershed scale. This will be an intensive 1-yr effort, compiling monitored water quality and quantity data, ecological assessment data, cropping system attribute data, as well as field and watershed scale modeling efforts to provide the other agencies with information on the effectiveness of current conservation practices, and how those agencies may better target conservation practices in the future.
4. Accomplishments
1. Development of a new conservation practice standard with Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). In the young glacial till landscape of the upper Midwestern U.S., closed depressions – known locally as potholes, are widely pervasive. Surface drainage water from potholes will collect at the lowest spot in the pothole, and will keep the area too wet for farming, even when using standard subsurface tile draining the field. Therefore, most potholes that are farmed are drained with subsurface tile, but also have supplemental drainage from a tile riser that extends vertically to the soil surface and above the soil surface. A tile riser is a pipe with ½" – ¾" holes drilled in the sides. ARS researchers at West Lafayette, Indiana identified the extent of potholes within a watershed as being directly related to the concentrations or loads of nutrients lost from the watershed. An alternate practice, called a blind inlet, was researched to provide greater filtration of surface water from potholes. Loads of P can be decreased by about 78% when drained with a blind inlet compared to a tile riser, and N loads can be decreased by greater than 50% when drained with the blind inlet. Decreased nutrient (N and P) losses to runoff water translate to savings to farmers as well as improved water quality. In 2012, ARS scientists from the National Soil Erosion Research Laboratory have worked with NRCS to develop a conservation practice standard, and NRCS in Indiana is now offering blind inlets as a cost-sharable practice through the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP). State NRCS offices in Ohio, Wisconsin and Iowa have also shown interest in the practice.
2. St. Joseph River Watershed selected as the first pilot in the USDA Agency Priority Goal Project. The St. Joseph River Watershed Conservation Effects Assessment Program Watershed Assessment Study (CEAP WAS) has been selected as one of two benchmark watersheds to be used for a multi-Agency effort to assess the impacts of conservation practices on environmental quality at the watershed scale. The Agency Priority Goals (APG) project is a collaboration between Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Farm Service Agency, U.S. Forest Service and ARS to provide a cost/benefit analysis to conservation practices at the 12-digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) level. Based on the scale, resolution, and quality of the data collected in the St. Joseph River Watershed CEAP WAS, ARS researchers at the West Lafayette, Indiana were contacted by NRCS headquarters as the first watershed requested to participate in the APG project. This will be an intensive 1-yr effort, compiling monitored water quality and quantity data, ecological assessment data, cropping system attribute data, as well as field and watershed scale modeling efforts to provide the other agencies with information on the effectiveness of current conservation practices, and how those agencies may better target conservation practices in the future.
3. Wind-driven rainfall consideration improves erosion prediction. The Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) model is a widely available and used method to predict soil erosion by water. Although the model is process based, it does not explicitly model the effect of wind driven rain (WDR) on erosion. ARS researchers at West Lafayette, Indiana collaborated with researchers from Turkey and Belgium and conducted experiments to collect data sets to evaluate the magnitude of this effect under various wind speeds and two directions to the wind, either slope facing into the wind or down wind. The interrill erosion process in WEPP could be modified to better describe an effective rainfall intensity using three simple terms. These included the angle of rain incidence, the effective energy of the rain hitting the surface both falling vertically and the effective angle on the slope. The direction of the slope did not improve predictions because it was effectively accounted for by the angle of rain incidence. The research benefits the erosion modelling community because now there is a mechanistic description of wind-driven rain to account for the wind effects on interill erosion.
4. Application of observation operators for field soil moisture assessment. Scale differences between ground-based and remotely sensed soil moisture observations has been an issue for validation of remote sensing data, soil moisture data assimilation and calibration of hydrologic models. ARS researchers at West Lafayette, Indiana, Beltsville, Maryland, and Purdue University researchers demonstrated the linkage between two different scales of soil moisture estimates by upscaling single point measurements to field averages for representing field-scale agricultural areas (~ 2 ha) located within the Upper Cedar Creek Watershed in northeastern Indiana. By analyzing the statistical distribution of the field meaured soil moisture data, measurements made at a single point can be interpreted or up-scaled to the field scale. These results impact scientists and other users attempting to assess soil moisture using remotely-sensed information and compare it to field-scale point measurements.

By FRANCO PANIZO
It was not a dream debut by any stretch, but it was one that Zak Whitbread is unlikely to forget any time soon.
A day after being loaned out to Derby County from Leicester City, Whitbread started and went the distance in a wild game in which he scored for the Rams. The injury-prone centerback scored in the 12th minute to help pull Derby out of the early 2-0 hole they fell into before the Rams conceded twice more before the end of the first half. Fortunately for Whitbread and Derby, three unanswered goals in the second half saw the club avoid defeat with an unlikely 4-4 draw.
Things were worse for Sacha Kljestan and RSC Anderlecht in the UEFA Champions. Anderlecht suffered a 3-0 defeat at home to Olympiakos on Thursday that leaves the Belgian club in last place of Group C with no points from two games. Kljestan started and went the distance in the lopsided defeat.
Several players saw the field for Club Tijuana on Tuesday, but they, too, were ousted. Tijuana lost on the road to Club America, 2-0, in a match that saw four Americans receive playing time. Edgar Castillo started and went the distance for Xolos, Herculez Gomez started and lasted 72 minutes, Joe Corona came off the bench and played the entire second half and Paul Arriola contributed with 28 minutes off the bench.
Here is how the Americans Abroad fared during the midweek action:
UEFA Champions League
- Jermaine Jones did not dress in Schalke 04's 1-0 win vs. FC Basel in the Champions League on Tuesday.
- Sacha Kljestan started and played 90 minutes in RSC Anderlecht's 3-0 loss vs. Olympiakos in the Champions League on Thursday.
UEFA Europa League
- Brad Friedel dressed but did not play in Tottenham Hotspur's 2-0 win vs. Anzhi Makhachkala on Thursday.
- Terrence Boyd started, played 90 minutes, and received a yellow card in Rapid Vienna's 2-2 draw vs. Dynamo Kiev on Thursday.
- Aron Johannsson started and played 90 minutes before coming off in stoppage time in AZ Alkmaar's 1-1 draw vs. PAOK Salonika on Thursday.
- Jonathan Spector started and played 90 minutes in Birmingham City's 4-0 win vs. Millwall on Tuesday.
- Will Packwood did not dress for Birmingham City. He is recovering from a leg injury.
- Tim Ream started and played 90 minutes in Bolton Wanderers' 0-0 draw vs. Blackpool on Tuesday.
- Stuart Holden did not dress for Bolton Wanderers. He is recovering from a knee injury.
- Zak Whitbread started, played 90 minutes and scored a GOAL in Leicester City's 4-4 draw vs. Ipswich Town on Tuesday.
- Eric Lichaj started and played 90 minutes in Nottingham Forest's 1-1 draw vs. Charlton Athletic on Tuesday.
- Danny Williams did not dress in Reading's 1-1 draw vs. Barnsley on Tuesday. He is recovering from a toe injury.
- Edgar Castillo started and played 90 minutes in Club Tijuana's 2-0 loss vs. America on Tuesday.
- Herculez Gomez started and played 72 minutes for Club Tijuana.
- Joe Corona came off the bench and played 45 minutes for Club Tijuana.
- Paul Arriola came off the bench and played 28 minutes for Club Tijuana.
- Greg Garza dressed but did not play for Club Tijuana.
- Jose Torres started, played 120 minutes and missed his penalty kick in Tigres UANL's 4-2 penalty shootout loss after a 2-2 draw vs. Monterrey in the Copa MX semifinals on Wednesday.
- Jonathan Bornstein dressed but did not play for Tigres UANL.
- Joaquin Alonso Hernandez did not dress in Monterrey's 4-2 penalty shootout win after a 2-2 draw vs. Tigres UANL in the Copa MX semifinals on Wednesday.
- Freddy Adu did not dress in Bahia's 2-0 loss vs. Corinthians on Wednesday.
What do you think of these performances? Impressed with Whitbread's Derby County debut?
Share your thoughts below.
Free Freddy!
Kingsly Alexander - Man Rey - Plotinus - Sankt Pauli!
I think we'll ever only see the real Freddy in his late 20s once he's been humbled enough to just be satisfied with playing soccer professionally, period.
Thought that was a picture of Alexi Lalas
I noticed that Johannsson has some pretty nice through balls. I wonder if he can play on the wing.
Kingsly Alexander - Man Rey - Plotinus - Sankt Pauli!
It wouldn't hurt his chances of solidifying a starting stop on our team if he could. That would be a question to ask ppl on the fan club message boards at AGF and Fjolnir
I think the best position for Johannsson is that underneath the striker in the role Dempsey has been playing. I'd like to see a player that can create some chances for other players more then Dempsey really does. Dempsey can spread the ball out wide and make a good run into the box but he really doesn't set others up at all. If not Johannsson then I'd like to see Donovan there. I can see Dempsey being moved to the left wing on the national team as well as at Seattle.
Gary Page
Dempsey was third last year in assists for Spurs and usually had 5 or 6 per year for Fulham. I guess you don't watch him much.
He could play any of the 3 support positions in our 4-2-3-1.
Clyde Frog
Whitbread has played something like 20 Premiership matches. I wonder if that's a record for an un-capped American.
Kingsly Alexander - Man Rey - Plotinus - Sankt Pauli!
Not if you consider Hangeland
He's been capped just not by the USMNT
Gary Page
Interesting point. Can't think of anyone else. When he wasn't injured and did play for Norwich (I saw him maybe a half dozen times) he looked good.
Clyde Frog
And why isn't Spector ever a part of the US right back discussions? He's not old. And isn't he playinv right back for his club now? And wasn't he the right back for the US in its most successful int'l tournament, the 2009 Confederations Cup?
he had injury issues for awhile and is finally back and playing regularly again. given his experience with the team, and with the questions at RB, i'd say call him in. if not now, in november.
Nate Dollars
he had a string of bad games post-confed cup, was being played at his club as a d-mid for a while, and hasn't gotten a look since then.
and i agree: if beasley can make a comeback, why the hell couldn't spector?
I haven't seen Spector play in ages, so I can't comment on his form, but as far as a comparison to Beasleys comeback, first he found a club, league and spot to give himself a chance to succeed, and he took advantage of it..
Second, and more important, you can't coach speed
I agree with Bac, Spector is a solid steady player but really has no upside. Hes a jack of all trades (hes played cm, rb,even forward) but a master of none. Hes a poor man Geoff Cameron.
i kind of disagree. Spector showed in 2009 Confeds Cup he can play at a high level when he gets into form. I know that was a long time ago, but at 27, he has plenty left in the tank. i just think it would be silly to ignore him completely given the games we have coming up over the next two months. perfect time to assess him.
Scott e Dio93
No Kevin Hoyos? I won't mind Klinsmann calls Kevin Hoyos some friendlies, I know Honduran league isn't that strong but Honduran done well developing some players, and I have feeling Kevin Hoyos going feel for a better league, very soon.
Steve Jungul
Call up Freddy Adu !!!
This has probably been said before, but can we just remove Stu Holden from these lists? It's just so sad to see his name there for about 3 years now.

I think that despite their education and service to their country, the veterans still are marginalized by society. Like many blacks in America, they are shunned and feel like outsiders in their own country.

text: I am leaving because as an enthusiastic student of business, I want to pursue Board positions and advisory roles for luxury brands and other high-end companies, where much of my marketing and financial skills have been honed over a 30-year period.I am enormously proud of what we have been able to accomplish, as I believe you know. Our current financial position is a tremendous feat in the recent economic environment. I believe it stands as a tribute to the ability, discipline and commitment to which all of you contribute each and every day. The team we have built is strong, and the Company is stable and poised for further growth. This is a good time to transition to new leadership that will guide Birks & Mayors through its next chapter in history. The opportunities that lie ahead for Birks & Mayors are indeed great as we look to the further development of the Birks brand and product assortment as well as our expansion plans abroad. When I look back on these last 15 years, I think of the impact we had - together - on this great Company. How together we turned around Birks, re-merchandised our product assortment and re-designed and rebuilt our stores. We repositioned our brand with fresh advertising, marketing and merchandising initiatives. We built state-of-the-art information technology systems, enabling world class financial reporting. This also helped us develop internal controls and corporate governance that we believe are best practices for a public company like ours. We acquired Mayors in 2002 and Brinkhaus in 2007, and we successfully integrated these companies with Birks. We turned Mayors around in two short years; and then hit a brick wall during the 2008 and 2009 recession. It was challenging, but we all pulled together and got through it. Now we believe we are well positioned to grow and achieve new heights.

Sarah Varney's report on Friday's Morning Edition is just the latest example of NPR's one-sided coverage of the health care issue in general, and ObamaCare specifically. Varney spotlighted how California's government gave a local chapter of the SEIU – a major supporter of President Obama during his two presidential campaigns – $1 million to enroll people in the state's insurance exchange.
The journalist also turned to UCLA's Gerry Kominski, who downplayed the "bumpy roll-out", as she put it, of ObamaCare enrollment since it began on October 1, 2013. Varney didn't mention, however, that the professor trumpeted the Supreme Court's decision upholding ObamaCare in a June 2012 YouTube.com video:
This a great day, and this is a great victory – not only for the [Obama] administration, but for millions of Americans who are now going to have access to affordable health care for the first time....The federal subsidies that are going to be available in the exchanges...are going to make health insurance affordable to millions of Americans...So, this is a great victory for the administration, but it really is a great victory for America, because we are now going to move forward with what is the most significant piece of health legislation since the enactment of Medicare and Medicaid in 1965.
The correspondent, who works for Kaiser Health News (a division of the left-leaning Kaiser Family Foundation, which has a joint partnership with NPR), led her report with how Covered California – the Golden State's ObamaCare marketplace – gave the $1 million in taxpayer money to the SEIU chapter. Varney noted that "the union...is using some of the money to call people in their homes at night and on the weekend, as part of a massive education effort."
The NPR journalist continued that "it's been a rocky hand-off to counselors who can sign them up for coverage. Many counselors are still attending training, or awaiting background checks and state-issued licenses." But she let the top official at Covered California put the best spin on the situation:
SARAH VARNEY: The month of October was always supposed to be about drumming up interest, says Peter Lee, Covered California's executive director. The state never intended, he says, to have all counselors certified this early.
PETER LEE, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, COVER CALIFORNIA: We have 20,000 county workers – the vast majority of whom have been certified – and people can go into county offices. Licensed insurance agents – you know, we've got about, I think, three to four thousand of 15,000 completed training. A lot of training is happening every day and every – every week.
Later in the segment, Varney spotlighted how Edward Avalos, an employee of a health clinic in San Jose, has had problems with the online sign-up process. Avalos pointed out that "there's been a lot of times when you get through all the process; you're on the last page; and unfortunately, you run into a stumbling block – the page freezes or something." But she then played her look-at-the-silver-lining soundbite from Professor Kominski:
VARNEY: It's easy to get apoplectic about the bumpy roll-out, says Gerry Kominski, director of the Center for Health Policy Research at the University of California, Los Angeles. But he says tracking enrollment, with the fervor of a stock market watcher, obscures the fact that the state is well on its way to meeting its goal of signing up 600,000 people by March.
GERRY KOMINSKI, CENTER FOR HEALTH POLICY RESEARCH, UCLA: A hundred thousand a month is roughly thirty-three hundred people a day. In the first week, they enrolled almost 30,000 people in five days. That's much more than 3,300 people a day.
VARNEY: Kominski says to keep its frontrunner status, California needs to keep up the pace.

Predated Rabbit
Observed: 6th April 2012 By: ex-royal
Added: 6th April 2012
Not sure what might have done this.
Other observations of European Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus)
6 April 2012 - 10:30pm Refugee
The pin in the map looks like it is pointing into a tree. This location is also on street view and shows a tree that has grass right up to the trunk. It looks wrong to me.
6 April 2012 - 11:33pm ex-royal
In my inexperience with the "use map" feature I hadn't realised I could be more precise in indicating the location by using the "satellite" button but I have found it now and re-entered location of this observation, which is about 40m from the tree you mention. I still don't know how to get to street view with this feature but will keep on trying.
The remains of the rabbit were between a hedge planted about 3 years ago and a neighbouring fence. The whole space involved was covered with bark chippings which remain in place.
The pin
7 April 2012 - 2:59am Refugee
It now looks like the pin is in the middle of a field of cereal crop with no hedge for a good few yards. Has the field now got housing on it?
You should be able to move the little gold man from the left side of the map to the street you want to look at.
What is left of the rabbit looks like someone has tried to chop its head off and taken the shoulder and a few ribs with it. The head looks too un-damaged for it to have predated by something like a dog as there it no sign of chewing.
The pin
7 April 2012 - 8:52am ex-royal
I don't know why the pin had moved to somewhere near Hexham!
Thanks for the tip re the little gold man - excellent. You should now be able to see the hedge behind which I found the rabbit.
Wrong location again
7 April 2012 - 8:55am ex-royal
This time the pin has moved to an adjacent property - I'm not having much luck. If you look left 7 o'clock of where the pin is now you will see a long thinnish green area of hawthorn and privet with a decking area just north of it. The rabbit was immediately south of (and over the fence to) the decking.

Let's start with the fact that games of medieval battles in store Google Play a little, and the more qualitative.
Developers offer us plunge into the atmosphere about the second half of the 11th century and participate in these knightly combat.
The goal is simple, you need to speeding up to a certain speed on a horse to hit the opponent.
Manage done perfectly, to speed you need to click on the screen as the green band, after reaching the required speed you need to hit the wooden spear your opponent. With all this, the weaknesses of the enemy is always changing, so you have to make decisions quickly.

Also, each object can be improved, it is available for all in-game currency or real money.
In addition to single-player mode, multiplayer is available, where you can play with the players from all over the world or your friends. Gameloft Studio holds weekly tournaments in which you can earn additional bonuses and rewards.
Graphics and animation performed adequately, it does not interfere with the game and the weight of which is 100 megabytes.
Audio support is also at altitude, the tramp of horses, the sound of wind and iron armor - you hear it all over the match.
It is time to sum up, the game Rival Knights or invincible knight for Russian users, the best project from the studio donatny Gameloft recently. Excellent graphics, beautiful animation, easy touch control - all this undoubted advantages of the project.
Well, what you're willing to hold out in the saddle? Then rather go to the store Google Play to install the game, it extends the benefit of totally free.

With tuition and text books already high-priced, university can be extremely expensive.
Add in the high cost of living in Vancouver, and UBC students have it tough.
UBC Food Bank Coordinator Jay Singh says it makes sense that they've seen food bank usage triple since November 2014.
"Just because it is a really nice university doesn't mean really wealthy people are coming here. It just means very academically inclined students are coming to this university, and a lot of them don't have the funds to be able to pay their way through school."
However, donors have been able to keep up with that demand.
"It's really nice for me to see that, especially as a student at UBC too, how everybody is pooling in together to help a cause. We've been really grateful for all the support we are getting for the food bank."
Singh says they will be building hampers for food bank users as the holiday season approaches, and is asking for donations.

text: REDWOOD CITY, Calif., July 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Cardica, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRDC) today announced that Andreas Kuthe, M.D., Chief of General Surgery at the Red Cross Hospital Clementinenhaus, Hannover, Germany, successfully completed a total of five laparoscopic procedures using Cardica's' proprietary Microcutter XPRESS™ 30 multi-fire surgical cutting and stapling device. These included several sigmoidectomies, an appendectomy and a small intestinal anastomosis as part of a gastric bypass procedure. Several additional laparoscopic procedures using the XPRESS 30 device are scheduled in Europe. "I am honored to be the first surgeon to use the XPRESS 30 in a laparoscopic procedure," said Dr. Kuthe. "This device is very easy to use and works more efficiently than traditional staplers. Importantly, the size allowed me to use a smaller trocar for the patient, further minimizing the invasiveness of this procedure." "We are pleased to announce this significant milestone in the development of our microcutter product line," said Bernard A. Hausen, M.D., Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of Cardica. "As part of our commercialization strategy, we plan to introduce the XPRESS 30 device to selected centers in Europe and to incorporate their feedback into successive iterations of this product and future versions of our Microcutter product line." About Cardica's Microcutter Product Line Cardica's Microcutter surgical cutting and stapling product line is designed to provide true multi-fire endoscopic stapling in a variety of procedures, including colorectal, thoracic and general surgery. The Microcutter product line is designed to cut and staple continuously, allowing a surgeon to complete successive deployments without removing the device for a cartridge reload. The first device that Cardica intends to commercialize in its Microcutter product line, the Microcutter XPRESS™ 30, has a shaft that is 8 mm in diameter, compared to commercialized stapling products with shafts that are at least 12 mm in diameter. The smaller diameter of the anticipated Microcutter line allows access through smaller, less-invasive ports and, importantly, through trocars used for the other surgical tools required for laparoscopic procedures. The Cardica Microcutter product line requires a 510(k) review and is not yet commercially available in the U.S.

Home › Forums › Gear Forums › Make Your Own Gear › Question about down
Mar 13, 2011 at 2:18 pm #1270472
Kevin TjadenMember
@ktjadenLocale: West
I have an older bag that needs some refreshing and lightening up. Currently it has 12 oz. 650 fill down and I have 4oz. of 800 fill down. I was wondering if some of the 650 down could be reclaimed and 'sorted' so as to take the best of the 650 down and combine it with the 40z of 800 fill down to restuff the bag. I would like to fill the bag with 10 oz. of high quality down ultimately.
Is 650 down a combination of high quality down and low quality down with an average fill power of 650ci? Or is it simply a lower quality down? Will there be some percentage of high quality 800+ fill down in there? How much down could I expect to recover.
If there is, any ideas on how to separate the best down from the lower quality down?Mar 22, 2011 at 7:16 am #1712573
paul buzzardMember
I have sorted down before, from some coats that died. You end up with lighter down, no feathers, which, I think should be higher quality down. No easy way around it, I just would take a lump of down, the right size, put it on rimmed baking sheet, start pulling the pile apart, remove the feathers. A needle nose pliers makes pulling and throwing the feathers away easier. Move pile until sorted, put sorted pile into paper bag, continue until done. Use paper bag, not plastic, the down won't stick to paper bag, and you can carefully close the bag.Mar 22, 2011 at 7:43 am #1712584

@leaftyeLocale: SoCal
Don't pull too much apart. Supposedly the bigger the clump, the higher the grade of down. I would pull out feathers and stop there.Mar 22, 2011 at 4:54 pm #1712952

@wehtamLocale: Midwest
I'd strongly suggest wearing a cheap paper mask (think dentist/surgeon) over your face while doing this for two reasons. One, to keep from inhaling down fluff, in the mouth is annoying, in the nose will lead to some pretty epic sneezing fits. Two, just to shield your breath from the pile of down, these little feathers take flight at the slightest air current, blocking your breath helps immensely.Mar 23, 2011 at 5:53 am #1713268
paul buzzardMember
In the down I sorted, the clumps always had a feather in the center, just had to get it out, clump remained in the new pile. Think the clump started as a feather, then the down got tangled in it. Was worthwhile project, but time consuming to do it right. Also, do not do near heat/ac vents, when the unit kicks on, you could have a mess, as it truly takes nothing to get the down flying. Don't move too fast away from the tray either. Have vacuum handy.

Last year ZEN Studios released Marvel Pinball to the world. Now, 12 months later, they have unleashed Marvel Pinball: Vengeance and Virtue. The pack contains Thor, Moon Knight, Ghost Rider and X-Men tables and is definitely a "super" pack.
The first table of the pack, Thor, pits you against some of Thor's greatest foes as you shoot, flip and bump your way to victory. Immediately noticeable is Jormungand, the Midgard Serpent, spewing fire and Loki standing at the end of the table right near the Golden Castle of Asgard. As you hit a trigger three times and spell out uru (the Asgardian metal that Mjolnir, Thor's hammer, is made of) it opens a path along the rainbow bridge to Asgard. The rainbow bridge is your access to the missions on the table. The mechanics of the table work very well and the missions are all very enjoyable. The voices are all done fairly well which is rare for Thor. The design really makes you feel like you are right there with Thor battling for good. The table isn't too hard and can be enjoyed by novices and pros alike.
Next up is Moon Knight's table and it is an interesting one. For those of you who aren't familiar with Moon Knight, he is a mercenary-turned-hero and has multiple personalities. This makes for a very different experience on this table from what you have seen before. You, of course, face off against some of Moon Knight's greatest enemies on the table and some of the confrontations lead to some pretty funny moments. One of my favorite things on this table is just watching Bushman creep up behind him and smack him in the back; I don't know why but I find it absolutely hilarious. The table also has a lot of touches added to it to make you feel like you are within a comic book, even adding a "smack" every now and again. You also see Moon Knight basically argue with himself at times. The missions are fun on the table and, as you would expect from ZEN Studios, everything works extremely well. Overall, the table is one of the more basic looking tables in the pack but it is a blast. Everything about the table just looks very unique and the only true negative is that there is a lot of silver everywhere.
The third table in the pack is Ghost Rider. I will be honest, going in I had very low expectations for a table for one of my least favorite heroes but I was very pleasantly surprised. The table itself has a very hellish design, with things that would maim a normal man littering it. The area behind the table looks like you are playing in Lucifer's house on this table of fire and brimstone. At the center of this nightmarish table is Lucifer standing tall. He torments you as you try to help Ghost Rider and also is how you start missions. He also can let you try to "catch the flaming ball" for massive amounts of points that change depending on whether or not you chose to have Ball Save on. There is also a shotgun at the bottom of the table that you can use to launch you pinball out of. I honestly cannot think of any way they could make this table better and still have it suit Ghost Rider as perfectly as it does. My only complaint about the table is that it seems very crowded.
Last but not least is the X-Men table. This table, while very unique and cool, is probably the least enjoyable of the four. The table itself is within Cerebro and is as X-Men as it could get, with you protecting Prof. X against the evil Magneto. Everything about the table visually is completely gorgeous from the Ice chutes from Ice Man to the launcher that is Cyclops' optic beam. The classic X-Men blue and yellow/gold is shown off all over the place but isn't overwhelming. Each mission changes the look of the pinball; for instance, when you are doing a mission with Phoenix and Cylcops one ball is on fire and the other has a bright red glow. Its fun, don't get me wrong, but when compared to the other tables it is the weak link. The voices aren't too bad expect for Prof. X, who sounds like a 21 year old trying to sound like an old man and completely failing at it. That and the more boring design (when compared to other tables in the pack)are the table's two biggest downfalls.
Marvel Pinball: Vengeance & Virtue is one of my favorite packs to date. The tables are all like nothing seen before and give tons of enjoyment with pretty damn good voice acting for the most part. The mechanics all work very well and the missions are fun. The pack is available now at the very fair price of 800 ($10) and is well worth purchasing for pinball and comic books fans alike.
- Unique tables
- Tables fit the heroes very well
- Some of the voice acting is not the greatest
Score: 5/5

There are more than 4,000 items of litter on every kilometreof Northern Ireland's beaches and shores, a new survey has revealed.
A report by Tidy Northern Ireland for the Department of the Environment has found that 14 beaches and shorelines were strewn with rubbish included sheep carcasses and the chassis of an abandoned truck.
Nearly three-quarters of the litter was plastic, including cigarette lighters and bottles (290 for each km) while there were also crisp packets and pieces of rope and string (462 pieces a km).
Overall, there were 4,033 pieces of litter ranging from black agricultural sheeting to live distress flares left on each kilometre of coastline.
Of 262 metal items found for each km, 148 were drinks cans and there were 276 sanitary items such as cotton buds, wet wipes and nappies, which Northern Ireland Water stresses should not be flushed down the toilet.
The survey forms part of the D of E marine division's response to the marine strategy framework directive, which requires Northern Ireland to achieve "good environmental status" by 2020.
It uses an internationally recognised method to record the amount and type of litter on 14 reference beaches every three months from Limavady via Rathlin Island to Warrenpoint. Northern Ireland has pledged to achieve an overall reduction in the number of visible litter items within specific categories on coastlines.
The survey which analysed the beach litter between September 2012 and April 2013 concluded that the good weather in early summer had also led to an increase in rubbish being scattered on local beaches.
Mark Durkan, Northern Ireland's new environment minister in the devolved government at Stormont, said raising public awareness was the only guaranteed way of reducing marine litter.
"A combination of education, provision of adequate waste reception facilities and enforcement of legislation is needed to tackle beach litter.
"Beach cleans are an excellent public participation exercise, focusing the public's attention on the issue of marine litter and creating a sense of environmental responsibility," he said.

Xbox One owners are complaining that a new TV advert showcasing the console's voice activation features by using the phrase "Xbox On" has been switching on their consoles without their permission.
Users on Twitter and Reddit have reported that the advert – which features Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul – uses the phrase, triggering the Kinect's voice sensor and turning on the console.
"That #XboxOne commercial with @aaronpaul_8, aka Jesse Pinkman, just turned on my damn Xbox when he said "xbox on," said one user on Twitter.
Another advert showing Paul using voice commands to play the sci-fi shooter Titanfall has reportedly had similar effects. "Aaron Paul just launched Titanfall on my #XboxOne not cool bro," writes Stephen Lucey.
This is not the first time that users have fallen afoul of Xbox One's voice activation, with some players joining online matches with names such as 'Xbox Turn Off' or 'Xbox Sign Out' in order to purposefully aggravate other players until they mention them by name – with expected consequences.
Xbox One owners who want to avoid issuing or receiving these sorts of accidental commands can disable the Kinect sensor.
Microsoft announced this week at the E3 games conference that they would start selling the console without the Kinect for the first time - a move that allows the company to match the price of Sony's rival PS4 console.
Although the American company has said that the motion and voice sensors of the Kinect are integral to the console's appeal, many fans have complained that they didn't want them. The new price for the console without the Kinect is $399 in the US and £350 in the UK.Reuse content

Cabinet minister Justine Greening told today how she was "gutted" at missing the Commons vote which saw the Government humiliated as MPs rejected military action in Syria.
The International Development Secretary personally phoned David Cameron to apologise "profusely" for the mistake which led both her and Foreign Office minister Mark Simmonds to not back the Government in the vote.
"I was absoluted gutted," she told Sky News today.
"I was there ready to vote and indeed wanted to vote."
Ms Greening, who would have backed the Government, was in a sound-proofed ministerial briefing room near the Chamber discussing Rwanda with Mr Simmonds.
A television, which would show a division being called, was turned off.
The two ministers' failure to vote was still causing amazement among some MPs in Parliament, given that the Syrian crisis was being discussed.
But Ms Greening rejected suggestions that she would be sacked as a result of the blunder.
"I don't think that question arises ultimately," she said.
Mr Cameron has accepted the Cabinet minister's apology and that it was a genuine mistake.
The Government lost the vote by 13 on allowing British military action "in principle" in response to the suspected chemical weapons attack by Syrian president Bashar Assad's forces which is believed to have killed hundreds of people, including many children.
Downing Street has said there are "no plans" for a second vote for Parliament to reconsider its view.

Islamic metaphysics[edit]
Hello, you mentioned the article Islamic metaphysics in this discussion. I see it redirects to Metaphysics. Do you have any more information on whether there used to be a unique article on Islamic metaphysics? Thanks -Aquib (talk) 14:01, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- I guess they deleted that article outright. I have only been following the discussion upthread on the talk page for medieval Islamic science, they identfied the five pages that were blanked. By the person who blanked all five pages on Islamic science, philosophy, etc. under a ruling of some sort. Yclept:Berr (talk) 20:26, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
Invitation to comment on RFC regarding the stubbing (deletion) of the Mathematics in medieval Islam article[edit]
You are invited to comment on the content dispute regarding the stubbing of the Mathematics in medieval Islam article Thank You -Aquib (talk) 04:03, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
Requesting assistance on a new RFC/U for Mathematics in medieval Islam[edit]
Thank you for your participation in the RFC regarding the stubbing of the Mathematics in medieval Islam article, and speaking out against this outrageous behavior. The issues surrounding this RFC are complex. I believe it is important they be dealt with in a way that provides support for further actions in the near future. This problem goes beyond the Mathematics in medieval Islam article, but it needs to be dealt with one step at a time in order to avoid confusion and build a comprehensive foundation for further action.
I need your help in order to move forward. The next step I hope hope to take is opening a separate RFC/U (user) to deal with inappropriate behavior in the original incident involving Pjoef, Ruud Koot and WMC (William M Connelley). The proposed RFC would deal with the sequence of events that led up to the intial stubbing, as well as the repeated re-stubbing of the article when I have attempted to revert it.
The subject matter must be narrowly limited to that appropriate for an RFC/U (user behavior) action. It covers the provocation of Pjoef by RK, the insults and attempted intimidation of Pjoef by RK and others, the lack of discussion on the talk page before the stubbing occurred, the lack of proof of problems with the article, the agreement of RK and WMC between themselves to stub the article, the way the article was initially moved rather than being stubbed (causing the temporary loss of article history), and their refusal to subsequently revert the article.
- Remedies should include reverting the article to its pre-stubbed state, and I also believe Pjoef deserves an apology.
- In addition, I also suggest these two users should withdraw from the editing of Islamic articles and JAG-related issues.
In order to proceed, I need at least one other user to agree to certify the RFC/U (the more the better). This is done by placing specific language on talk pages at the right time, after the RFC/U has been prepared and we agree on its contents. I cannot proceed to RFC/U by myself. I also need suggestions on how the RFC/U should be worded and what should be included. I can write the RFC/U and drive the process, but I need you support.
Please reply on my talk page to let me know if you are interested in helping me recover this article and correct this injustice. If you know anyone else who would like to participate, please invite them to reply to my talk page as well.
Thank you very much,
Aquib (talk) 03:58, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
- Aquib, I appreciate your message. I am an infrequent editor and so, while I've familiarized myself with all sorts of wiki procedures over the years, I've never participated in an RFC. My inclination would be to take action that is global with respect to all the pages involved and addresses the abuse by overzealous editing without respect to individuals (as was the case with the apparently flawed Jagged process). That doesn't mean these people aren't individually abusing a blind spot in the system though. I am simply too new to the discussion and too unfamiliar with the "cleanup" crew's edits to make claims against them personally. However I will happily participate in an RFC/U as an unbiased observer of the discussion that has transpired recently.
- I would more happily participate in a global process that allows us to suggest remedies that apply to all pages in question, since at the very least folks cannot accuse me of having an "axe to grind". An AfC listing the pages that were deleted or stubbed in response to the Jag cleanup would be a great place to start. On the two talk pages for math and science, I listed the ones mentioned upthread on the talk page for Talk:Science in medieval Islam. Does anyone have a complete list?
- Regarding the RFC/U, I suggest you confer with Pjoef on how best to proceed, since he seems to be the most affected party, being the person who has taken it on to review and clean up the article and the persons who deleted it wouldn't let him. I only know enough about the subject to criticize the process, and the persons involved seem to be using that loophole (what I like to call WP:BLINDSPOT) to keep articles where there is a lack of expertise (compare WP:BATHWATER) stubbed by placing the burden of proof on anyone attempting to add anything even when citations are properly sourced and not overstated.
- Also note that the existence of a {{Verification failed}} / {{Not specifically in source}} template, [not in citation given] used to tag individual claims in an article, makes the entire Jagged 85 verdict to completely stub all pages on the subject obsolete and unnecessary.
- Like I said, I'll happily participate, but I can only speak to what I've seen and read in the recent discussion, not to past shenanigans by these editors. And I'll actively second any request for a new AfC (?? I'm not familiar with the correct forum) addressing all the "Jagged" pages. Part of the problem is that the guy who actually went and outright deleted / stubbed some of the pages was a hit-and-run and I can't tell what his motives were.

Re: Music venue page[edit]
Oh, this is great news! I am a huge fan of The Clash (the only band that matters), but I like all music from the Renaissance to the Mars Volta (great band). If you need a helping hand for that article as well as for others, do not hesitate to ask me. I will take a look at that "headache" tomorrow morning, I'm too tired now.

HTML element page[edit]
Not sure of the word, maybe ironic, but the use of the font tag is depreciated as it says on the HTML page, so use the span tag. In the article in the font section, it says "Sizes are from 1 to 7. The standard size is 3". On Wikipedia, the standard size is 2. I changed the font sizes in the example to percentages based upon Wikipedia standards, so you might want to change the percentage to what it needs to be. Bgwhite (talk) 08:43, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

text: Ch. 2, Sec. 2 The First Carolinians: Native American Groups of North Carolina Identify and describe American Indians who inhabited the regions that became Carolina and assess their impact on the colony. The First North Carolinians People have lived in North Carolina for several thousand years. The first of these native peoples lived as nomadic hunters and gatherers. Many artifacts or relics and objects of their existence have been left behind for archaeologists to study and examine. By 1492, there were an estimated 35,000 Native Americans living in the state and well over 34 different groups are known to have existed. These Native Americans depended on whatever nature or the land offered in order to survive. The five major groups of North Carolina • Hatteras • Chowan • Tuscarora • Catawba • Cherokee The Hatteras Indians • Once occupied the sandbanks in the vicinity of Cape Lookout. • The survivors of the Lost Colony may have been incorporated into this tribe. • The Hatteras/Roanoke Indians were the first to come into contact with the Europeans and the first to decline in numbers. • By 1700, only 16 fighting men were to be counted with a total population of 80. Chowan Indians • The Chowan were once a large and powerful tribe in the Albemarle region in the 1600's, but by 1707, they had only one town left with 15 warriors. This loss of life and identity was because of interaction with the European colonists, disease, and war. • In 1733, with only a handful of original members left, they were assimilated into the Tuscarora. The Tuscarora The Tuscarora were a part of the Iroquoian Nation and were fierce and aggressive, unlike the weaker coastal tribes. Around 1700, there were approximately 1200 warriors and over 5000 in the tribe. They lived in the piedmont and inner coastal-plain. The Tuscarora War of 1711 broke their power and control in North Carolina. Many of the survivors of the tribe fled northward into New York where they joined their cousins, the Iroquois. Later on during the Revolutionary War, many Tuscarora fought against the British. Chief Pelers of the Tuscarora Tribe The Catawba Indians • • • • • • At one time, the Catawba were the largest and most important tribe in the entire piedmont region of the state. They lived along the banks of the Catawba River and were largely farmers. The Catawba were friendly to the white settlers and were the arch enemies of the Cherokee nation. During the American Revolution, several Catawba Warriors served with distinction in the American army in pivotal battles such as Guilford Courthouse in 1781. In the late 1700's and early 1800's, the tribe suffered significant decline from diseases and warfare. By 1944, only 280 full-blooded Catawba Indians were living. As of 2006, less than 3,000 Catawbas remain, the majority of which live in South Carolina. The Catawba were once well-known throughout North Carolina for their pottery and hand-made baskets. The Cherokee The Cherokee Sequoyah (above) invented the Cherokee writing system. He never learned to read, speak, or write the English language. • Cherokee civilization may be as old or older than the Greek and Roman civilizations. • Part of the Iroquois, the Cherokee have always inhabited the mountain regions of the southeast. • At one time, the Cherokee numbered over 25,000. Today, there is an estimated 270,000 federally enrolled members. • The Cherokee battled fiercely against white settlers and sided with the British during the Revolutionary War. • Little by little, the Cherokee lost their ancient territory as the years progressed. •The word "Cherokee" means, "Those who live in the mountains." •One of the most shameful episodes in American History occurred when the Cherokee Indians were rounded up by the United States government in the 1830's and forced to relocate west of the Mississippi River in what is today Oklahoma. •This movement became known as, "The Trail of Tears." This was due largely to gold being found on their ancestral lands and also because of the expanding white population. •Thousands of men, women, and children died on the journey. •During the War Between the States, several thousand Cherokee served gallantly in the Confederate Army with an outstanding battle record. •Today, the Cherokee Nation continues to expand and grow. Famous Cherokee The owner of the Tennessee Titans Will Rogers Jimi Hendrix Johnny Depp Burt Reynolds Wes Studi Elvis The Impact of the Invasion of Europeans on North Carolina's Native Americans • Severe depopulation through disease and warfare. • Migration from ancestral lands and removal to reservations. • Radical alterations of Native American culture and customs. • Complete assimilation into white European culture. 1. ______________ are relics and objects left from the past. 2.

Hutchinson said he needs a rest after 15 years in a very demanding job.
But his departure will inevitably weaken the position of coach Claudio Ranieri, whom he was instrumental in taking to Stamford Bridge.
Since joining from Wimbledon, Hutchinson has been a key figure in the dramatic changes which have taken place at Chelsea.
A major part of his job has been to conduct the often complicated negotiations to sign foreign players.
He told Standard Sport today: "I've had 15 good years at Chelsea but it has been very demanding on me and my family. For the last six or seven years now I've not had a proper summer holiday and I've spent more time on the phone during the times when we have managed to get away.
"There have also been occasions when I've left my family on holiday and dashed off to sign players. Since the Premiership started I think I have only missed two first team games and no more than six games, including cup-ties.
"The decision was taken a few weeks ago and Ken has known for some time. We understand each other because we've been together for 15 years. Obviously I've given the matter a lot of thought and I know I am going to miss it.
"But I will still be around for the rest of this season and I just want to focus on that now.
"I want to do other things but at the moment I have got nothing in mind. I still want to remain in football but what shape or form that will take, I do not know. I certainly haven't had any contact with any other club and I haven't really given my future plans a lot of thought."
Hutchinson may not have to wait long for job offers. He has a formidable network of European contacts and is an authority on football's increasingly complex system of transfer regulations.

PLEASANTVILLE, N.J., May 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Comcast is welcoming back New Jersey shore customers, many of whom were impacted by Superstorm Sandy in October 2012. The company, which upgraded 144 miles of infrastructure supporting the hardest hit Jersey Shore communities, is also announcing newly-renovated service centers with increased staffing and weekend hours; additional service technicians and other benefits to help customers starting May 25. More than 170 additional technicians have been committed to maintain and improve the network in shore areas, perform installations and proactively service outside cable lines that may have been affected by storm waters and other conditions. "We know that Hurricane Sandy complicated life for millions of people, and many of our employees and facilities were affected by the storm," said LeAnn Talbot, senior vice president of Comcast's Freedom Region. "We were here for the Jersey Shore during and immediately after Sandy, we have been here to support since then and will remain as a partner tomorrow and beyond as people and communities work to rebuild." In time for the summer season, new and returning Comcast customers will be among the first in the state with access to a lineup of new services, including:

commercial property for rent or lease, Industrial Space For Lease.
Sunnyvale (TX) commercial property for lease, rent, and leased investments.
Find Sunnyvale industrial buildings for lease, retail rentals, & shops. Locate a Sunnyvale warehouse lease and any real estate for lease / investment, including industrial properties to rent and sale.
Some Sunnyvale commercial businesses may be more productive and efficient if they have adequate office area. In some areas the monthly lease on such Sunnyvale areas can very often make up a substantial amount of a small company's budget. Sometimes it's feasible to share facilities like conference rooms with other Sunnyvale tenants, to reduce costs. Consider different options before taking out a long-term lease on a large workplace when the possibility may exist that your Sunnyvale business could outgrow the areas quickly. Consider short-term rentals for companies that are growing and in transition.
Search Sunnyvale real estate and space for sale, lease and rent
If your company lacks the means to obtain financial loans for purchasing Sunnyvale commercial property, there's no need to put strategies, business plans, and lucrative ideas on hold. Leasing commercial real estate has been an advantageous opportunity for Sunnyvale business owners and new entrepreneurs alike. While it may be an easier avenue compared to purchasing Sunnyvale property, there are still terms and conditions that can need to be haggled, settled, negotiated, and in some cases, debated. With an experienced Sunnyvale broker on your side, you can leave the stress of negotiation to a more experienced hand. Besides a broker, a lawyer can help navigate the lease to ensure your Sunnyvale company�s best interests are protected and the terms are fair.
Your long term Sunnyvale business plan and real estate commitment should be aligned as most real estate leases and investments are long in duration. Business leaders need to anticipate future growth and requirements of the Sunnyvale business to be positioned for the best and worst scenarios. Define the spaces you need and make sure the area can be designed to incorporate all requirements. Will the layout satisfy Sunnyvale employee expectations and will any possible employee relocation, or commute, to a new venue be achieved to everyone's satisfaction. Consider proximity to Sunnyvale facilities and amenities such as shopping, health care, childcare, etc.

Patna, Oct. 13 (ANI): Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Tuesday said the fear of imminent defeat in Bihar has forced Prime Minister Narendra Modi to muster courage and talk of corruption as he had chosen to remain silent on the Lalit Gate and Vyapam scam.
"Rattled by imminent defeat in Bihar Modiji forced to muster courage & talk of corruption that wasn't in his discourse since LalitGate & Vyapam," Nitish tweeted.
"He's preaching about corruption and probity in public life, but as on all other counts here too his actions don't match his words," he said.
Nitish further said, "We have all seen what he has done on Lalitgate &Vyapam. But when was the last time Modiji practiced what he preached?"
Prime Minister Modi has time and again blamed Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav and Nitish of destroying Bihar in their 25-year reign in the state.
Meanwhile, the Chief Minister also thanked the people of Bihar for coming out in large numbers to vote for the grand alliance.
"I thank people for coming out in large numbers and especially the participation of women in the first phase of the polls," he said.
Fifty seven percent polling was recorded in the first phase of the Bihar Assembly elections yesterday.
The first phase is important for the JD (U), as out of the 49 seats, it had won 29 in the 2010 elections, while its then alliance partner the BJP had won 13 and the RJD had got four seats.
The second phase of the assembly polls is on October 16. (ANI)
