Psychology of learning
|This article needs attention from an expert in Psychology. (November 2008)
The psychology of learning is a theoretical science.
Learning is a process that depends on experience and leads to long-term changes in behavior potential. Behavior potential designates the possible behavior of an individual, not actual behavior. The main assumption behind all learning psychology is that the effects of the environment, conditioning, reinforcement, etc. provide psychologists with the best information from which they can understand human behavior.
As opposed to short term changes in behavior potential (caused e.g. by fatigue) learning implies long term changes. As opposed to long term changes caused by aging and development, learning implies changes related directly to experience.
Learning theories try to better understand how the learning process works. Major research traditions are behaviorism, cognitivism and self-regulated learning. Media psychology is a newer addition among the learning theories because there is so much technology now included in the various types of learning experiences. Neurosciences have provided important insights into learning, too, even when using much simpler organisms than humans (Aplysia). Distance learning, eLearning, online learning, blended learning, and media psychology are emerging dimensions of the field.
Socrates (469-399 B.C.) introduced a method of learning that is now referred to as piloting. Piloting refers to arriving at answers through one's own power of reasoning. This was used when Socrates was teaching geometry to a young slave boy who knew math but nothing of geometry. He would ask this boy to solve a problem like finding the area of a square. When the boy would get the answer incorrect he would repeatedly question his reasoning by contradicting his logic. The notion that knowledge comes from within was inspired by Socrates and his experiments.[1][2]
In 1885, Hermann Ebbinghaus (1850—1909) continued the study of learning. Specifically he studied memory in its "pure" form. "Pure" meaning free from meaningful associations. With himself as his own experimental subject he exercised this form of memory with the use of meaningless syllables and repetition. Ebbinghaus laid the way to another form of learning; becoming increasingly able to recall something as a result of practice and repetition.[1] He was known for the discovery of the learning curve and the forgetting curve.
Edward Thorndike[edit]
In 1898, Edward Thorndike (1874–1949), through his various real experiments and thought experiments developed his theory of the "Law of Effect". The Law of Effect is a notion that not only humans, but all animals will continue to attempt to find a solution to a problem, and once found will continuously use the same solution in order to solve the same problem. The action that is done, causes a positive effect (solving the problem).[3]
Pavlov and Watson[edit]
Ivan Petrovich Pavlov (1849–1936) was a Russian physiologist in the early 1900s who also contributed to research on learning. Knowing that a dog salivates when food is present, he constructed a series of experiments that proved his thesis that he could make a dog salivate by just the presentation of the sound of a bell. The process he used is now called classical conditioning.
John Broadus Watson (1878–1958) also used this method of learning to cause a young child, not previously afraid of furry animals, to become frightened of them. Although the number of different stimuli is limitless, the reactions that can be caused are limited to the natural reflexes we possess.[1]
Burrhus F. Skinner (1904-1990) was the founder of operant conditioning which uses punishment and reinforcement as learning tools. This learning method is not as limited as the previous learning form. Operant conditioning is only limited by what can be used as reinforcement or punishment.[1]

Does tetanus affect any certain organs?
1,074,547questions onAdd New Page
I don't know but any specific organs but I know that it will constrict your organs and all other bodily functions until your main organs (most of the ones in your torso for example) pop, your muscles rip and your bones snap.
Long-story short: any pain you feel during the tetanus vaccination is nothing compared to what would probably happen if you opted not to take the vaccination.

Effects of reducing television, videotape, and video game use on children's health and behavior
The Foundation's Generalist Physician Faculty Scholars Program was designed to strengthen the presence of generalist physician faculty in the nation's medical schools through career development awards to outstanding junior faculty in medical school departments/divisions of family medicine, general internal medicine, and general pediatrics. Two pilot studies have been completed that demonstrate the feasibility of significantly reducing children's television, videotape, and video game use and the effects of reducing media use on body fatness. This grant will use data collected during the second pilot study, a controlled, school-based trial of reducing television, videotape, and video game use in third and fourth grade students. The hypothesis is that compared to controls, third and fourth grade children exposed to a school-based intervention to reduce time spent watching television and videotapes and playing video games will significantly: (1) decrease their levels of aggressive behavior, as measured by peer, parent, and observational measures of aggression; (2) decrease their perceptions of the world as mean and scary; and (3) increase their performance on standardized academic achievement tests of reading, math, language, and listening.

Tray-apps work and are part of the interface on NT4, but are normally used for interactive programs, not services. Services are normally managed by separate applications (which themselves of course could use the tray for notifications). And in particular in NT5 services will be managed via a new container (the management console). So a tray app interface built now may not be relevent in NT5. //pcs

When Hal Cope began flying shortly after World War II, he had an inkling that he might be setting the tone for future generations.
On Tuesday, his son Eric, who is retiring from Hawaiian Airlines at age 62, captained a Boeing 767-300ER aircraft on his final flight from Sacramento to Honolulu. Eric's son, first officer Levi, 38, was to his right as the co-pilot. And one of the 210 passengers aboard was the elder Cope, now 88, who briefly worked as a consultant for Hawaiian on a couple of occasions after having flown for several Canadian airlines during his career.
It was something you don't see every day — three generations of pilots on one flight.
"I got started in the airline business in 1948 and I passed the bug to Eric and he passed it on to (Levi)," Hal said. "There's no known antidote."
Eric was overwhelmed Tuesday by all the attention as he posed for pictures in the cockpit, answered questions from the media and spoke to well-wishers. It was a family affair with 10 members of his family on the flight.
"It was crazy special to fly my last flight with my son on a 76 (Boeing 767) and to have my whole family on board was very cool," said Eric, who began at Hawaiian on Dec. 3, 1985.

My Journey from the Netherlands to Singapore
''A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step'' – Laozi
Since deciding to study Trade Management Asia at Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences in 2011, it has been my dream to live and work in Asia. When I graduated in 2015 I set out to turn this dream into a reality. Luckily, my journey of a thousand miles, or in this case 6,519.41 miles from Amsterdam to Singapore, started at LeaseWeb.
In September 2015, I was hired by LeaseWeb Netherlands as an Inside Sales Representative (ISR). I hadn't until that point thought about working in the hosting industry, but sometime fate has a funny way of putting us in exactly the right place. The hosting industry is booming, interesting, and full of opportunities. As an ISR, my main task was to call existing customers and potential new businesses to create new and expand existing relationships. This experience provided me with the basis, or the infrastructure, for a deep understanding of the industry. Working in inside sales teaches you a considerable amount about the industry, customers, and, of course, the products and company itself. It also helps you to become persistent, and to quickly learn from and keep growing after failures.

Health Benefits
The American Heart Association found that the TM technique is the only meditation technique that lowers blood pressure. TM has been shown to reduce anxiety and depression, and lower the risk of heart attack and stroke.
Improved Relationships
The TM technique contributes to more successful and fulfilling relationships. TM reduces stress and tension, a major barrier to good communication. It has been found to develop broader awareness, greater happiness, and refined feelings and emotions.
What Did They Say About TM?
Jerry Seinfeld, American Actor, Author and Comedian, who has been practising the TM technique for 40 years and Bob Roth, a certified TM teacher and Director of the David Lynch Foundation, discuss the value and benefits of practising the TM technique with George Stephanopoulos, Host of Good Morning America, who also practises the Transcendental Meditation technique.
Inner Peace & Wellness
The TM® technique helps us cultivate a peaceful state of inner calm. The peace and calm experienced during the practice of TM flows into daily life. With TM, one can experience quieter levels of the mind.
Stress & Anxiety
A Stanford University study found the TM technique to be twice as effective as other techniques for reducing stress and anxiety. The TM technique reduces the mental and physical effects of stress
Transcendental Meditation Reduces Stress Naturally
Everyone is aware of the negative effects of stress. It decreases performance, harms relationships, and creates physical wear and tear. In short, it curtails enjoyment of life. Furthermore it tends to build up in the system over the course of a lifetime. Even a good night's sleep or an extended holiday does not enable us to recover fully. Nowadays, stress is a fact of life - but it need not be.Learn more.
How Transcendental Meditation Relieves Stress
"People who come to me for relief from stress and stress-related disorders need an effective meditation that's quickly mastered and produces consistent results.
Though TM is a mental technique, due to the mind-body relationship the practice has extensive physiological effects. TM allows the mind to settle very deeply inward—in a natural way. TM teachers call this effortless transcending. It's what sets TM apart and why the technique is so beneficial for mind and body, right from the start." - Gary Kaplan, M.D. Neurologist, NYU Medical School
Ellen DeGeneres
"There is something about TM. It is the only time I have that stillness. I open my eyes and I'm sad that it's 20 minutes later. It gives me this peaceful feeling—I just love it so much."
Norman Rosenthal Psychiatrist, Author and Researcher
"Before our research was over, three of our clinicians had gotten Transcendental Meditation training. That's how impressed they were with what they saw.
No other stress management technique' has anywhere close to this amount of hard data in support of its claims to reduce stress."

"There are no known harmful effects from ingestion of water that has had fluoride added to it at or about 0.7-1.2 milligrams/liter. No systematic reviews of the literature have shown any negative health effects from ingestion of water fluoridated in or near this therapeutic range."Connett says, This assertion is dangerously misleading because it: a) Confuses the difference between concentration and dose. Harm has been found at doses that are commonly experienced in populations drinking artificially fluoridated water. For example, a child drinking 2 liters of water at 1 ppm (the average level used in fluoridation) will get a higher dose than a child drinking one liter of water at 1.9 ppm, the threshold for lowering of IQ in one published study. b) Ignores that most basic health studies have not been conducted in countries practicing fluoridation. The absence of study is not the same as absence of harm.
NEW YORK, Jan. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- In an article in the January issue of the Journal of the American Dental Association (JADA) authors Armfield and Melbye indicate that "Studies of dentists' attitudes about water fluoridation suggest that a lack of knowledge and preparedness are barriers to discussing the topic ... more than one-half of the respondents believed they needed more information and training on the issue," reports the Fluoride Action Network (FAN). Fluoridation, touted as a decay-preventive, is the addition of fluoride compounds (mainly hydrofluosilicic acid derived from the phosphate fertilizer industry) to public water supplies. Despite dentists' lack of knowledge, these authors urge them to promote fluoridation, anyway. According to Paul Connett, PhD, FAN director and lead author of the book The Case Against Fluoride ( Chelsea Green, 2010), "It is reckless to urge dentists to tell the public that fluoridation is safe when they are not on top of the literature. Their qualifications pertain to teeth. They are not qualified to assess what damage ingesting fluoride may cause to the rest of the body." Armfield and Melbye encourage dentists to promote the safety of fluoridation based upon this misleading assurance:

Clearly, our thinking must not exclude the possibility of animals attaining to extremely rapid rates of evolution ... (Johnston & Selander 1964)
A wave of recent studies has shown that many organisms can undergo adaptive phenotypic evolution over just a few generations. Across a wide range of taxa, this contemporary evolution has been observed in many biological contexts, on fine spatial scales, and in the presence of gene flow (e.g. Hendry & Kinnison 1999; Schluter 2000; Kinnison & Hendry 2001; Palumbi 2001; Gilchrist et al. 2004; Hargeby, Johansson & Ahnesjo 2004; Garant et al. 2005; Strauss, Lau & Carroll 2006; Hendry et al. 2006; Phillips et al. 2006). Moreover, strong selection on observable time frames has caused substantial differentiation among populations within species, in some cases enough to represent the early stages of speciation (Hendry et al. 2000; Filchak, Roethele & Feder 2000; Schwarz et al. 2005; Hendry, Nosil & Rieseberg 2007). Evolution may also occur quickly enough to alter the outcomes of ecological interactions and ecosystem-level processes (Thompson 1998; Agrawal, Lau & Hambäck 2006; Fussmann, Loreau & Abrams 2007), including those that generate selection in the first place (Yoshida et al. 2003; Hairston et al. 2005). Given all of these effects, ignoring contemporary evolution will likely limit success in many biological disciplines.
Recognizing the potentially broad influences of contemporary evolution leads to many new questions. Are the high frequencies and rates of evolution observed in modern times unusual, perhaps the result our own increasing impact on the selective environments of other taxa? Or, has evolution always occurred on ecological time-scales, but been largely overlooked until recently? How do rates of evolution measured in ecological time relate to those assessed by macroevolutionary and palaeontological studies? What are the genetic, developmental, behavioural and demographic factors that influence rates of contemporary evolution? And, what are the implications of contemporary evolution for general principles and problems in evolutionary biology, ecology, conservation biology, medicine and agriculture? Empirically, the reality of contemporary evolution means that many evolutionary processes thought approachable only by inferential study, such as speciation, can now be studied directly.
This special feature of Functional Ecology starts from the premise that contemporary evolution is a common phenomenon. This recognition allows us to move forward beyond simply documenting the process to examining the factors that influence it and that are influenced by it. We specifically emphasize evolution on ecological time-scales; that is, ecologically significant evolution occurring on a time frame over which ecological studies typically consider populations to be evolutionarily static. Our goal is to synthesize and broadcast what is known about the biology of contemporary evolution, to highlight the opportunities it presents, and to identify current gaps in our understanding.
In this introductory essay, we review the history of thought on the pace of evolution and its importance in ecological pattern and process. This introduction is followed by seven papers – each a general review of conceptual ideas and empirical support for them – examining emerging topics in this field. Four of these papers treat factors that influence evolution on ecological time-scales – phenotypic plasticity, maternal effects, sexual selection, and gene flow. The remaining papers examine the ecological consequences of contemporary evolution for population persistence, speciation, and community/ecosystem dynamics.

Do You Have These Friends? Must Friends, Trust Friends, Rust Friends & Just Friends
Ancient philosophers and contemporary scientists agree that a key—perhaps the key—to happiness is strong relationships with other people. We need to have intimate, enduring bonds; we need to be able to confide; we need to feel that we belong; we need to be able to get support, and just as important for happiness, to give support.
We need many kinds of relationships; for one thing, we need friends.
Now, the term "friend" is a little loose. People mock the "friending" on social media and say, "Gosh, no one could have 300 friends!" Well, there are all kinds of friends. Those kinds of "friends" and work friends and childhood friends and dear friends and neighborhood friends and we-walk-our-dogs-at-the-same-time friends, etc.
Obviously, such relationships are very different, although they're all "friends."
In Geoffrey Greif's book Buddy System: Understanding Male Friendships, he identifies four categories of friendships:
Must friend: a best friend, a member of your inner circle, a person you count on when something big happens in your life
Trust friend: a friend who shows integrity, someone you feel comfortable with, that you're always glad to see, but not in your inmost circle; perhaps someone you'd like to be closer to, if you had the time or opportunity
Rust friend: a person you've known for a long, long time; you're probably not going to get any closer to that person, unless something changes, but a part of your life
Just friends: a person you see—at a weekly poker game, at your child's school—who is enjoyable company, but you have no desire to socialize outside a specific context or to get to know that person better
I think it's helpful to think about the different types of friends. Even if you wouldn't invite some people to your wedding, they can still add a sense of warmth and richness to your life.
A friend of mine did an interesting friend-related exercise. She took a big piece of paper and made a chart of her friendships, based on clusters. As she did it, she highlighted the names of the people or institutions that had introduced her to a particular cluster. What she found—and this struck me as so interesting—was that a few people had served as very important connectors. Until she made that chart, she hadn't realized that these few individuals had made such a difference in her social life.
I keep meaning to do this exercise myself.
What do you think of the four categories: must, trust, rust, and just friends? Are there any kinds of friends that aren't captured in those four terms?
For tips for making new friends
For tips for maintaining friendships
I also write about friendship in The Happiness Project chapter on friendship.
Gretchen Rubin is the author of the #1 New York Times Bestseller The Happiness Project—an account of the year she spent test-driving the wisdom of the ages, current scientific studies, and lessons from popular culture about how to be happier—and the recently released Happier at Home. On her popular blog, The Happiness Project, she reports on her daily adventures in the pursuit of happiness. For more doses of happiness and other happenings, follow Gretchen on Facebook and Twitter.

Have a friend who has your back instead of being cunning behind your back. Personally I have no friends and I am happy with that!
Positively Positive
I agree, Gretchen! All of these categories are important – we do need different kinds of friends.
I've struggled with friendship for various reasons, and it is interesting that my family has shamed me for not having "normal" friendships, (I admit I don't have many healthy friendships), and yet it was growing up with those people that distorted my life so cruelly. I am almost 50 and am finally becoming a friend to myself. That is making all the difference, and soon I have no doubt that I will feel better about my other friendships and they will improve.
A healthier way to live. God Bless
I use to want more close friends or to be closer to the friends I already had. About a month or two ago I realized how fortunate I was to have ONE best friend who would do anything for me. I reprioritized my thoughts and have been happier ever since. I am thankful for my best friend and the other friends I have… I am more content and happy today.
I have been stabbed in the back and lost trust in people who pretended to be TRUE FRIENDS.
But as i gained more life experience i can fully state i currently have have 3 TRUE FRIENDS. The ones that proved themselves when even I gave up on myself….and said no, just go away, i am tired of being positive. but they did not go anywhere and they still believed in me.

|Barbour partners with Back to the Bible to launch goTandem imprint
|Written by Jeremy Burns
|Thursday, 06 February 2014 03:44 PM EST
Barbour Publishing announced an exclusive partnership with Back to the Bible on Feb. 6. Under the new agreement, negotiated by Greg Johnson of WordServe Literary Group, Barbour will work with Back to the Bible to launch the goTandem book imprint to provide quality nonfiction resources especially for churches.
The first release is scheduled for November, with another 12 titles to follow in 2015. The goTandem imprint aims to provide churches with a solid and relevant selection of books that address the unique needs of congregations large and small.
"We're thrilled to be aligned with one of the most trusted ministries serving the church today," said Barbour CEO Timothy Martins. "This unique opportunity to develop practical and life-changing resources with such a passionate and talented team is a privilege."
Back to the Bible's mission statement is to meet people where they are and help them connect with God through daily Bible engagement. It is this strategy that drives the launch of the new imprint, according to Arnie Cole, CEO of Back to the Bible.
"There are few publishers who can combine value with meeting high felt needs of readers, few who can distribute to a broad array of outlets with a sharp eye toward editorial and packaging," said Cole. "Barbour's history of creating Bible-oriented books makes them the perfect partner to work with churches to meet the ever-changing needs of local congregations."
These resources will complement the already-successful goTandem mobile app, which provides daily biblical encouragement, catered to the individual needs of users. The goTandem titles will be distributed by Barbour to churches and bookstores.

A source says, "The song sends out the message that if you have manb**bs, you're still a dude! Vir has composed as well as sung the comedy rock track."
Says Vir, "This song is an ode to the overweight guys who are very conscious of dancing."

Most folks have a finite amount of time that they can dedicate to hunting and want to maximize their opportunities when out in the woods. While deer and elk habitats have a fair amount of overlap, I prefer to focus on just one species, as putting yourself in deer and elk country is often a bit of a compromise. However, combination hunts make sense to many folks who can only dedicate an extended weekend or are coming from out of state and can only budget one big trip in a year. The prospect of going home empty handed is tough, so the concept of having tags for two species is very appealing. But you have to be careful about the areas you select if you want a legitimate shot at both species.
Here in Colorado, you can combine elk and deer hunts in archery, muzzleloader, 2nd season, 3rd season and 4th season, and a special early rifle season in a couple of units. There is no first rifle season for deer nor late season opportunities outside of the plains. Colorado has unlimited over the counter bull elk tags available in about 2/3 of the western units (the ones with huntable elk populations) during archery, 2nd and 3rd rifle seasons. All deer licenses are by draw only, but some licenses go to leftovers. I'll get into some potential leftover options later. The drawing deadline is April 5th, 2011 this year, so if you're still mulling some ideas, it's time to get cracking.
One of the reasons that I consider doing a combo hunt to be a compromise, is that you have to decide where and when you are going to hunt. Deer begin migrating out of the high country by the end of October, but it takes much longer to force elk out of the mountains without serious hunting pressure. Elk also tend to be grazers, preferring grasses, sedges and forbs, while deer are primarily browsers, focusing on shrubs. In most of Colorado, the mountain shrub communities tend to be at lower elevations than the typical big timber and meadow country that the elk inhabit. The aspen zones, which tend to stretch from the mid 8,000 foot range to the 10,000ish foot range are a fair compromise area, as they are rarely dense enough to shade out an understory.
I'm not trying to give a botany lesson here, just trying to point out why it is difficult to hunt both elk and deer at the same time in the same area, at the same elevations. If thinking about trees and shrubs makes your head hurt, then just think foothills for deer and mountains for elk during the rifle seasons.
But not all of western Colorado is classic, high mountain country. Much of it is mesa, plateau and canyon type country of the Colorado Plateau as opposed to the Rocky Mountains. Elevations are generally not nearly as high, so you have a better opportunity to get both elk and deer during the rifle seasons. If you prefer archery or muzzleloader, then I believe these areas are a little tougher to hunt in September. While elk should be bugling, the scrub oaks, mountain mahogany and serviceberry will still have their leaves, making spotting deer difficult. Instead, I'd focus on getting above timberline (11,500-11,700 feet in most of Colorado) to glass for elk feeding in the high basins and deer feeding or bedding in the krummholz (little stunted trees at timberline, it means twisted wood in German).
There are just a few unique opportunities that will allow you to hunt deer and elk in September in the high country. One is in unit 45, where there is an early rifle deer hunt in the Holy Cross Wilderness. While there are several other places offering early rifle deer hunts, this is one of just three units where the there is also an early rifle cow elk season. The other two units are units 25 and 26 in the Flat Tops Wilderness.
I would not recommend doing a deer/elk combination hunt in any of the severe mountainous regions of the state during 2nd season. While 2nd season is nice because the deer tags are easy to draw, there are OTC bull elk tags, and in the limited elk areas, the tags come pretty easily too, it's really difficult to get at the bucks while they are heading down out of the high country through the timber. Instead, check out some of the plateau units in the Western Slope. Now, many of those are trophy units for either elk or deer, you can draw several of those units with just one preference point for deer.
3rd season tends to be a much better time to do a combo hunt in the more rugged country, as the bucks are coming down from the mountains and there's usually some severe weather to help hasten their descent. The bucks are also started to check the does for estrus, therefore tending to be a little more active, and a little less secretive. The elk may also be moving down below the heavy timber at this point. Also, most of the grasses will be dessicated, forcing them to find shrubs or irrigated crops to feed on. But now is when things can get tricky with landownership patterns. If the unit you are looking at does not have sufficient public land to hunt below 9,000 feet, you could get yourself in a bit of a bind when trying to find deer. I particularly like areas with low elevation BLM lands that back right up to irrigated private lands. It can be tricky getting around them, and may require some serious hiking, but those can be deer and elk hotspots. Elk can be much harder to pinpoint this time of year, as they could be anywhere from all the way down in the valleys to way up in the mountains, depending on snow levels. A decent compromise when trying to get into both is to focus on where scrub oaks begin to give way to aspens, somewhere in the 8-9,000 foot elevation range. One other problem with 3rd season, is that the deer tags can be a little harder to draw than in 2nd season.
4th rifle season can be very difficult to draw for deer, the elk tags are limited too, but are very easy to draw. If you have a few deer points, but no elk points, this is a great option. The elk and deer will often be at the same elevations, the bucks will be extremely active and visible and success rates are very good for both species. But, you've got to draw both tags now. Other than muzzleloader season, this is probably the most difficult time to try to plan on acquiring both an elk and a deer tag.
So, how about a few picks?
If you wanted to do an archery and OTC elk hunt in a unit that requires no preference points in a backcountry wilderness setting, take a look at unit 36. The Eagle's Nest Wilderness Area makes up much of the unit, OTC archery pressure by Front Range hunters really dies off this far away from Denver, and there is a stellar deer population. No, it's not the best area for either elk or deer, but a good compromise if you want to get up high and glass.
I already mentioned units 444 and 33 in earlier articles, and both of those are great options for deer and elk combinations during 2nd or 3rd rifle season. Unit 33 buck tags tend to go to leftovers during 2nd rifle season, unit 444 will have leftover doe deer tags, and both units are OTC bull elk and will have leftover cow tags. But if you wanted another suggestion, for another productive area, outside of the usual places, take a good look at Grand Mesa. The north end tends to have excellent deer hunting, the south end tends to have a little better elk hunting. So, you've got another compromise to make here, but the nice thing is that the bull tags are OTC, allowing you to hunt any unit you want in 2nd or 3rd season. You will have to apply for either units 41, 42, and 421 for deer on the north side of the Mesa, or 52, 411 and 521 on the south side.
Your options are severely limited in 4th season if you are without preference points. I'm going to give you a real oddball unit that is very hard to hunt and is often overlooked. Unit 34. Yes, the deer population is way down, but by 4th season the deer are very accessible, with success rates averaging in the 40% range over the past 5 years, almost twice as high as 3rd season, while either sex elk success is a solid 24%. Just as importantly, unit 34 has enough low to mid elevation public land that you can actually hunt those animals. Unless you like gnarly canyons, and sheep country (which can be pretty exciting, but they kick your butt) stay out of this unit the rest of the year.
With application season coming to a close here, keep these pointers in mind if you're trying to plan a combo hunt. Also, it's not too late to email the DOW and alter your application in case something I wrote just gave you an idea.

text: Hi, just a simple question? I played till lvl 40 on RU classic, did not have any chance to test Resist shock buff. But from what I have seen on pvp movies I see that stun land 90% of the time even if we have the buff. I saw on myself that stun land really easy on ppl, land rate much bigger than in previous chronicles. Stun from same lvl person did land on me like 100% time. So the thing is that we should really worry about how much CON we have? Or if we got resist stun buff? Because I see that it lands anyway? I assume that classes with high CON like crafters, human fighters etc. got better resist stun that DE mage but on pvp movies I didn't really see that MUCH difference. WL, Glad and OL/WC stun lands most of the time. Question is: Does EE buff helps at all? Or its worthless like Mental Shield?

Twin Six CRC Water Bottle
Candy Rainbow Crew' Colloquial Research Camp' Can't Really Climb' No. Try Cars R Coffins. In a certain light, it's hard to argue, so if you're inclined to agree, pick up a Twin Six CRC Water Bottle. The 22 ounce bottle itself is called the Purist, and it's USA made using a low density polymer that makes it freezer friendly and enhances grip. The interior of the bottle, after being molded, gets a 5 nanometer thick application of silicon dioxide, an inert compound that not only prevents plastic from slowly leeching into the bottle over time, even after washes, but also eliminates that funky water bottle taste we all dread. It's like a pure glass cup in the form of a rough and tumble water bottle that happens to look great, too.

We don't prohibit anyone from commenting on long-dormant threads ("necroposting"), although in the back room we may kid about the "Lazarus Award" for resurrecting really ancient threads. I think the record was a thread that was dormant for 6 years getting a new comment last year.
None of what you're suggesting or asking about is specifically against the rules. In general, if you think you are posting useful information and not just repeating some tired old dogma, then post away. Lots of members post links to useful and worthwhile products and services; we only get a little prickly about those posts when they appear to be blatant advertising.
Please acquaint yourself with our rules - look for "Forum Rules" at the bottom of the blue banner at the top of the page. Those may answer a lot of your questons.

I'd say, use your discretion. If the info or questions has value today in a current discussion, then I wouldn't worry too much about the moderators feeling it's any less proper than posting to a brand new thread.

Interesting. Funny then how I was banned for life with absolutely no reason given. All I ever attempted to do on this website was visit postings pertaining to a particular topic, where members were seeking advice on that topic and so I thought, looking for solutions to the subject at hand. Upon responding to 4-6 posting that were similar in nature to the subject matter, I was apparently deemed unsuited to belong to this forum. I used no inappropriate language, or any other wording that could be considered inflammatory and did nothing that violated the terms that I read and agreed to prior to joining. By a stretch, I can only assume that the powers to be would attempt to argue on their behalf that I was attempting some sort of spam attack. I myself do not appreciate spam, and when looking at the definition of spam one learns that it is "irrelevant or inappropriate messages sent on the Internet to a large number of recipients." My responses were never intended to be spam, nor can they be defined as spammed. In order to say that they were, then any response within any forum pertaining to any subject would be considered as such. Furthermore, I "sent" nothing to anyone. I merely posted information for anyone, now or in the future, to have in their arsenal of information, just like every other person that commented in the thread prior to myself. Had I posted in every active thread the information that I did...then that would have been spam. I merely searched for people who had discussed the particular topic that I was interested in, and responded accordingly. I had originally come to this website in hopes of establishing a relationship both personally and professionally with the fellow members, but before I invest any money for advertising or time and emotional effort into posting I like to stick my toe in the water. Unfortunately this water was frozen over. I would have been refreshing to see a little more "innocent until proven guilty" on a forum that represents the same constitution and principals that I would think the members of this website would find important.

I'll make it short and sweet; when all your posts are promoting your business, you indeed are a spammer. If you want to become a sponsor to advertise on the forum, that's great, we can help you with that. However, sponsor or not, you still must follow the forum rules. Given the fact that you joined in order to promote your business, got caught and shown the door, then had the audacity to rejoin the forum again (also a rules violation) under false pretenses in order to ask a red herring question leads me to believe you and your business probably are not a good match for DC.com.

Glass Eyes (Based on a Dream #1)
The place is sick. Colors everywhere. Giant toys, dolls, columns reaching to the ceiling wrapped in stripes. Colors, bright, gleeful, happy, gay. Adults, in and out, glass eyes, smiling. The walls crumbling. But solid.
A little girl runs up to me. "Have you seen my mommy?"
My stomach turns. Her mom is gone. Where is her dad?
"Your daddy will be here for you." This place is dangerous. She needs to get out.
"I don't know where he is," she squeaks.
I tell her a story. I tell her he will be here on her birthday. He will take her out of this place, on her tenth birthday.
She smiles. I hug her, wanting so badly to help her escape. Children die here.
A man with a gray mustache approaches us. He says the girls name, "It's me, I am your daddy."
He takes her into a room. Inside, a giant teddy bear and colorful playthings. On the other side of the massive room is a door, sunlight streaming in. I have hope for a second. She's going to get out of here. But his eyes, blue glass. I try to take the girl. But she's with her fake dad. She's going to be crushed. Literally. What is this place? She's going to die.
I look away. I don't hear the screams. I don't listen.
All around, children. Unhappy in this cheerfully decorated place. Running, playing, but unhappy. Am I the only one who knows?
A woman comes to me. Tall, skinny, gray hair. Glass eyes. I hate her. I fear her. She runs the place. Men grab me, tie me, put me into a stream leading from a fountain. The stream goes into another room. The rooms are where people die. The water pushes me toward the room. The stream drops off. The room is dark, unlike the rest of the place. I don't know what's inside. I beg to the woman, to let me out. I feel like I'm suffocating. She laughs and tells me, "Sing, and I'll let you live."

UPCOMING EVENT: Drinking Water Quality Testing – November 1, 2016 (5:30 pm) at the VA Cooperative Extension Office, 215 W. Main St., Stanley.
Does your water come from a well, spring or cistern? Do you want to learn more about the quality of your water?
Cost: $20.00 for the first 60 Page County residents (thanks to funding from the Page Co. Water Quality Advisory Committee).
How it Works:
- At a brief info meeting, pick up a sample kit and get instructions to collect your household water sample.
- Collect a sample from your tap at home and complete a short questionnaire.
- Drop off sample at the designated time and location.
- About 4 weeks later, come back to get your confidential test results.
Pre-registration is required and payment should be mailed to VA Cooperative Extension.
For more information, call VA Cooperative Extension at (540) 778-5794
DRUG TAKE BACK OPPORTUNITY: Everyone can help address a vital public safety and public health issue.
WHY: Each day, approximately, 2,500 teens use prescription drugs to get high for the first time according to the Partnership for a Drug Free America. Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including the home medicine cabinet.
Drugs that are flushed down the toilet or disposed in the landfill cause long term water pollution that can not be removed by conventional wastewater treatment.
WHERE: The Page County Sheriff's Dept. has an easy, secure and private way for anyone to safely dispose of out of date or unwanted drugs. In the lobby of the Criminal Investigations Division Building downhill from the Courthouse parking lot at: 315 West Page Street (This is a secured building – call 743-7810 for entry),
WHEN: Ongoing, Monday – Friday, 8am-4pm.
HOW: Remove or black out the prescription number and name of patient, but leave drugs in a closed container (no loose or liquid drugs & no needles/sharps). Open the drop slot on the secure container inside the building door and deposit drugs.
The Virginia State Police arranges for these drugs to be safely incinerated so they will not cause water pollution.
This is an excellent opportunity to anonymously, properly and easily dispose of expired or unneeded pharmaceuticals.
THANK YOU in advance for properly disposing of these materials instead of flushing them down your toilet.
Water is fundamental to the overall health and quality of life in Page County, a foundation for our community, economy and environment. A clean, abundant supply of water is a basic right for all of our residents and an essential resource for our children and their future.
We are a group of citizens, farmers, local officials, planning commission members, and state and local organizations. We promote water pollution prevention, prioritize and address water quality issues and enhance environmental education in schools and communities in Page County.
Resource Challenge
Page County is located in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Karst topography poses unique water quality challenges with the close interaction between surface water and ground water. Local land use practices directly affect water quality. Several streams are currently not meeting the state requirements and have been identified for Total Maximum Daily Load studies. The Water Quality Advisory Committee supports farmers in implementing best management practices. Other likely sources of pollution include failing septic systems and other human sources.
Key Partners
The Committee is comprised of members of the community chosen to represent various stakeholders and perspectives, including representatives from: the farming community, health department, cooperative extension, town governments, soil & water conservation district, concerned citizens, schools, recreational water sports and tourism industries. Other groups have offered assistance to the Committee including the Department of Conservation & Recreation, the National Park Service – Rivers and Trails Department, the UVA – Institute for Environmental Negotiation, the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality, the Canaan Valley Institute, the Shenandoah Basin Project, and others.
The Page County Water Quality Advisory Committee meets monthly. Page County residents are encouraged to attend and get involved in understanding and taking care of one of our county's most vital natural resources, our water.
The Nature Conservancy has created a new website particularly for 'anyone whose life or livelihood is enriched by rivers can learn how we can all work together to protect these waterways'. THE GREAT RIVERS PARTNERSHIP brings together diverse stakeholders and best science to work toward sustainable management and development of the world's most critical river systems.
