I cam going to be so glad when it's 2013. After the last eleven years of watching people be stupid over trying to get married or have babies or release movies on the number-same number- same number calendar dates, I'm warn the eff/eff/eff out. I don't think that releasing IMMORTALS on 11/11/11 is going to help its box office draw or even increase interest in the film. Hell, I was offered a chance to see it for free at an advanced screening and didn't bother going because I didn't want to waste the gas money. But hey, it's got a chick in it that we can talk about instead.
Isabel Lucas
Remember when Shia LaBeouf got into that car accident and fled the scene and every media outlet starting talking trash because Lucas was in the car with him and the consensus was that the two were having some fling whilst filming TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN and Isabel was supposed to be Adrian Grenier's girlfriend at the time? Yeah, I might be the only one. But I also recall that when Michael Bay cast her to be the evil sexy in that movie, no one batted an eye or paid her much attention, especially not to the lengths that the RHW scandal went to.
I don't have much experience with Lucas as an actress other than the TRANS2 movie and DAYBREAKERS, which oddly enough I did find her to be above satisfactory in. I've had friends who say that she's good in the little indie movies she makes (i.e. THE WEDDING PARTY) but haven't yet checked that out for myself. Plus, I will definitely check her out in RED DAWN if they ever. f*cking. release. that. movie. (*Hulk level frustration*)
Here's the thing about Isabel Lucas that drives me crazy. She's supposed to be considered beautiful because she has an exotic look. Hey! Check out the chick who didn't thin down her eyebrows!! But I'm tiring of the opinion that being exotic looking is some automatic pass into hotness. When they doll her up, she can look great. But most of the candid shots of her remind me of the way a dog who's been abused cowers and folds in on itself when approached. Because she doesn't exude any level of personal confidence in her carriage, I find it hard to check mark her on the hot column.
What do you think of Isabel Lucas?

No. 25 Commodores Post 6-1 Win Over Georgia
April 27, 2014
NASHVILLE-----Georgia dropped its eighth straight on the road Sunday as 25th-ranked Vanderbilt defeated the Bulldogs 6-1 in front of a crowd of 3,353.
Georgia (21-22-1, 7-12-1 SEC) took a 1-0 lead in the second. With two outs, first baseman Heath Holder reached on an error by first baseman Zander Wiehl. Freshman Mike Bell stepped up and smashed an RBI-double off the "Green Monster" in left, a 35-foot-wall at Hawkins Field.
Both teams missed scoring opportunities in the first as the respective pitchers registered key strikeouts. The Bulldogs had runners and second and third with one out and Tyler Ferguson retired Nelson Ward and Hunter Cole. Vanderbilt second baseman Dansby Swanson had a leadoff double. Freshman Stephen Wrenn made a superb diving catch on a sinking liner by Xavier Turner for the first out. Then, sophomore David Sosebee struck out Bryan Reynolds and Wiehl to end the first. Vanderbilt threatened again in the fourth after a pair of two-out walks. Stolen bases moved both in to scoring position and Sosebee struck out catcher Jason Delay to maintain a 1-0 edge.
The Commodores (33-12, 11-10 SEC) grabbed a 2-1 lead in the fifth. Sosebee issued a leadoff walk and then hit a batter. Xavier Turner popped up a bunt for the first out. Georgia went to the bullpen and turned to Jared Cheek. He walked his first batter to load the bases for Wiehl who then smacked a two-run single to right. Cheek recovered to retire the next two hitters to keep it a one-run contest. Sosebee was making his first career SEC start and just his second overall this season after contributing solid relief this year. On Sunday, he got the loss to fall to 0-3, pitching 4.1 innings and surrendering two runs on three hits with four walks and four strikeouts.
Ferguson notched the win to move his mark to 6-3 after providing five innings and allowing one unearned run on three hits with one walk and five strikeouts. The Commodores turned to Adam Ravenelle who pitched the next three innings and Brian Miller took care of the ninth frame. Georgia made three errors in the sixth that accounted for two runs as Vanderbilt extended its lead to 4-1. Wiehl hit his fifth home run of the year in the seventh plus the Commodores pushed across a run in the eighth for the final.
"It's been a long road trip, we've faced some good teams, and we have to play better baseball all around the field," Georgia coach Scott Stricklin said. "The last two weekends, we've played a couple of teams on the road that will be hosting regionals. Now we go home and get a chance to take a breath and work on some things. We play two of our final three SEC series at home, and we have an opportunity to get it going."
Georgia returns to action Friday at Foley Field when it starts an SEC series against 11th-ranked South Carolina (34-11, 12-9 SEC).

Planning Suffers From Malaise, Stagnation
Fulton writes:
"This year, I'm struck not by how much the conference has changed – it really hasn't, not all that much – but by the passing of time. Maybe it's just me, but there's a kind of a wistfulness this year, a sense of loss. Only a couple of years ago the planning profession in California still seemed robust and energetic, with planners excited about new challenges such as climate change. This year, it feels like there's tentativeness to the entire profession, as planners are continually laid off, planning departments are shut down, and young planners can't find jobs."

Odersky Explains Why Scala Fuses Imperative & Functional Programming
At Scala Days 2013 Martin Odersky, creator of Scala, explains the reasons why Scala fuses together imperative and functional programming. In his keynote, he makes the case for Scala as a hybrid language that bridges the gap between the imperative / Object Oriented and functional paradigms. Odersky then goes on to talk about how to write Scala with Style, while embracing both types of programming paradigms.

Book of MadnessMature
Let us delve into the criminal mind of the insane. Let us explore the very naked essence of Superheroes and Supervillains. Let us see.
As the fall of Kings in the Tragedy's of old, the fall of the greatest cities is inevitable, and should a hero rise up to challenge the downfall, then they shall become this generation's Hercules. Having struggled against the very Gods, cursed to madness and death.
Indeed, every city at the heights of fashion, of politic, of the arts and of the military are doomed to fail. An escalating series of events that has only one course. All to soon, any small crime is acted upon with severity, to maintain a flawless perception to the outer world, and those of other countries pray upon this paranoia, for they have already won.
With such severity, the criminal underclass will meet them directly, crimes will become bigger, often with people willingly taking the fall to make their points and others follow by example.
The enforcers are then, themselves, forced to improve their weapons, vehicles and tactics as crime becomes more organised. Even to the point of... pre-emptive action.
But it is too late to save themselves. Those who wish to succeed as the super-power of the world have already seen that this city has shot itself in the leg and is only limping on now. Soon this city shall be put down.
With the threat of being taken from your very house, riots and strikes ensue and the criminals are pushed into desperation. They need leaders, crime lords of outstanding intelligence and creativity. Enforcer numbers increase ten-fold, weapons are wildly used, prisons quickly becoming full and snitches revealed. But with outstanding wit and creativity comes insanity. And this... oh this is when the city will truly burn. Rage with infernos that smoulder into ash and embers leaving non alive. What the city truly needs then, is a hero. As the tragic heroes of old, born to heights but born from flaw... to rise and fall and purge the city in death. To become a martyr. That is what the city needs to live on.
I am blind, yet I see more than anyone, the true plight of Heliopolis.
Edward Gabriel

Take your medication correctly. Don't adjust your dosage before talking to your doctor. If you feel your medication should be changed, discuss it with your doctor. Get enough sleep. Lack of sleep can trigger seizures. Be sure to get adequate rest every night. Wear a medical alert bracelet. This will help emergency personnel know how to treat you correctly. Exercise. Exercising may help keep you physically healthy and reduce depression. Make sure to drink enough water and rest if you get tired during exercise. In addition, make healthy life choices, such as managing stress, limiting alcoholic beverages and avoiding cigarettes.

Our group really enjoyed staying at McKenzie's Lodge. 8 people were very comfortable here. We cooked meals each night and found the kitchen to be very well stocked. Proximity to the Crystal Mountain village was great... they provided bus passes but we found it almost quicker to walk, even with our gear. Was so much fun watching movies (great DVD selection) and using the wood stove!

We decided to have our mini family reunion at Crystal, and we loved it. So much to do! Our group of 10 had a wonderful time at McKenzies Lodge. The property was as advertised - very comfortable, well stocked, and very clean. Absolutely perfect location within the resort - a very easy 5 minute walk to the village, and far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet of the outside decks and many pine trees. We would definitely come back and stay again at this home.
McKenzie's Lodge was great! Great location - very short walk to the Village, pool, and restaurants. We loved the outdoor fire pit. There were plenty of seats for our group of 10, and it came with lots of firewood. We grilled a lot, and appreciated having both a gas and charcoal grille. Our young kids had so much to do at Crystal - rode bikes, went to the pool, did the Alpine slide, paintball course. Overall a great home at a great resort for a relaxing vacation!
Took our annual ski trip to Crystal Mountain, and we loved it! Our extended family (grandparents down to younds kids) had a GREAT time staying here. We enjoy cooking large family meals, so it was really important to have a fully stocked kitchen, and McKenzie's Lodge had absolutely everything we needed. It even had a high chair for our young son! The laundry room and wash tub came in very handy, since we had a lot of wet, snowy ski gear that needed to be dried often. This home is very family and kid friendly, with a ton of video games, board games, and a nice DVD library. We even downloaded movies from Netflix on the internet TV. Highly recommend this home!
We had a blast at this home! There was plenty of space for our group (two families of 4), it had all the amenities we needed, and we LOVED the big deck! The kids enjoyed the lower game room, and we were able to keep all our stuff (bikes, toys, coolers) in the garage. We walked to the resort and village area every day - don't think we drove at all during our stay. We've stayed at other private homes on vacations, and this one was one of the cleanest, well kept by far!
We stayed at Mckenzie's lodge for a relaxing ski weekend and we had a blast! The description was spot on - super clean, comfortable and enough room for our group of 8 to spread out. The kids enjoyed watching movies and playing video games in the basement, and loved the foosball table. It was so relaxing to come home from skiing and make a fire in the wood stove. We were able to leave our equipment in the garage, and grab it the next morning on our way out, which was very convenient. Having shuttle passes was great. We called the front desk and the bus was at the driveway in front of the house in 5 minutes. It was SO much easier than driving, parking, and dragging our gear to the slopes. The best part was that we saved a ton of $$$ compared to renting a similar size property through the resort, and the location was even better than some of the resort's properties. No doubt we will be back at mckenzies lodge!

Like the answers? Chat privately for 24 hours with the doctor of your choice
Hi there...slow digestion is usually related to lack of digestive enzymes, which in turn can cause constipation, gastric problems. Try having multiple short meals, 4-5, instead 3 big meals. Your schedule should also be regular. Do not starve for too long. Having plenty of water and foods rich in fibres like green leafy vegetables. Avoid foods with complex carbohydrates like sweets, oily foods and junk food. Start excercises regularly, because even sedentary lifestyle can cause indigestion. Also consult a general to rule out metabolic disorders or inflammatory diseases like crohns, irritable bowel syndrome.

Assess Your Assessments matrix by Grant Wiggins
Questions about the matrix
does 'support your answer' always fall into 'far transfer'?
what does near and far transfer mean?
what mode of assessment works best for middle school students?
can a selected response go beyond recall and inference?
what do you fill into the empty boxes? just a check mark or a score?
how does a teacher include a variety of each format? throughout the year?
i wonder if gold standard pbl checks all of the boxes.
i wonder what an ill-structured problem looks like.
can assessments overlap in categories?
mini and informal assessments are under-utilized
i see the need for a variety of assessments
making a product leads to 'far transfer'
we cannot teach apart from context
i think i can combine several types of responses into one test
i think teachers need great intuition, awareness, and training to select appropriate assessments for different tasks

We took our low-res prototypes and turned them into something more high-res and impactful for one another. We also learned how to use several of the technologies in the studio.

What's the worst thing you can do when playing into the wind? Hit a high left-to-right shot (a fade). For a lefty, it would be a right-to-left ball flight. A headwind exaggerates any spin your ball carries, so a fade gets pushed far off line and flies a very short distance. The ball appears to balloon up and sideways as the wind kills its progress. A right-to-left shot, or draw, is less affected because it flies with less backspin and tends to penetrate the wind. If you're capable of hitting a draw, use it whenever possible in windy conditions. If a draw's not in your arsenal, you can still survive windy days playing your fade – the great Lee Trevino made a career of it. The first trick is to keep the ball low, which can be difficult since the fade is hit with an open clubface. The second key is to make sure the ball starts left of your target.
To play a fade into the wind:
- With the driver, tee the ball slightly lower than normal, with only a small portion of the ball above the club's top line.
- With every club, play the ball back in your stance. A couple of inches inside the left (lead) heel for the driver, mid-stance for irons.
- Aim the clubface a little left of your intended target, with the feet and body aligned with the club or just slightly left. You're looking for a minimal fade.
- On the takeaway, be sure to swing the club back along the line of your body while keeping the clubhead low to the ground.
- Swinging through, fire your right side through the shot. This will prevent the ball from squirting right while starting it on target and delivering the solid contact necessary to minimize the wind's effect.
Follow the same steps for shots with irons or woods from the fairway, playing the ball slightly back in your stance.

Aldrear: Fervent Hope
As he usually did in these situations, Aldrear immediately regretted the lack of a co-pilot. The cockpit of a D-5 Mantis could be manned by a single person, but it was still a few steps larger than your average one-manned starfighter. Aldrear launched into the familiar flurry of action that accompanied such predicaments, first launching the ship into a series of programmed evasive manouvers. Following that he angled his deflector shields against the streams of red and green that had begun to pour from the enemy craft. Then he was warming up his own weapons in preparation to punch through the makeshift blockade. And after that he was at his ship's computer, keying in a few commands that launched an analysis scan on the mysterious attackers. And finally he was taking back control of the ship, and making his way for the surface of the planet. His only hope was that the defenders of Tython, most likely Jedi Pilots from the Enclave, didn't mistake him fo-
His ship rocked as several new flashes of light began to assault his ship from the front. He followed the laser fire back to a cluster of ships approaching from the planet.
Jedi Starfighters.
"Wonderful" Aldrear commented, before putting the ship through a tuck and roll, narrowly avoiding a collision with another ship and a stream of turbolaser fire. A frigate crossed into his path of descent and the ensuing blare told Aldrear it was preparing to fire on him. He blinked, as the class and make of the frigate scrolled across one of the monitors. He knew this type of ship, knew a lesser known move that could be used to exploit an unusual quirk in the design. It was lesser known in that Aldrear was the only one who had been crazy enough to consider it as an option.
"It'll work" he assured himself.
Diverting most of the ship's power to the forward shields, Aldrear accelerated and began locking in his own target. Ignoring a hit that caused the cabin lights to flicker, Aldrear stared straight ahead, completely focused on the task ahead.
Five hundred meters.
Four hundred meters.
Two hundred and fifty meters.
Fifty meters.
Aldrear entered the frigate's right-side docking bay and immediately opened fire with everything he had at the wall directly in front of him. The thin wall that, incidentally, was the only thing separating him from the ship's second docking bay. The hole he'd made was a tad small, and Aldrear braced himself as his ship crashed through, and exited the left-side docking bay.
Aldrear came to the conclusion that something was wrong a split-second before the alarm came on.
He was missing a booster engine. And a stabilizer.
Resuming his frantic pace, Aldrear began keying away at every control panel he see, trying to find a helpful option. The ship shuddered as it passed through the gravitational field and Aldrear concluded that his time was just about up. The best thing he could do was curl up and hold on.
Oh, and hope he didn't die.

Indianapolis woman reveals battle with depression
One in ten adults experiences depression, but women are more prone than men. A central Indiana woman talked to Eyewitness News about her battle with depression and what worked for her.
Nakaisha Tolbert Banks felt "off" for weeks before she revealed to her husband that mentally she was in a dark place.
"There are days when you leave and go to work and I am here with the child and I cry all day and I just knew that something wasn't right. So he said schedule another appointment and go in," she recalled.
It was after the birth of her firstborn child, London.
"You are supposed to be so happy and overjoyed and loving this new little blessing that has arrived and all of a sudden you realize, I am not feeling that," Nakaisha explained.
"Bottom line is it needs to be dealt with and treated," said Julie Schneiders, LNP, St. Vincent Health.
Depression - post-partum or otherwise - is something Schneiders says is a higher risk for women. But stigmas make them reluctant to reveal their concerns.
"Don't be afraid," said Schneiders. "If you are coming in for your annual exam...if you are not sleeping, crying all the time; if you have had this major thing happen, talk to us about it. Hopefully you are comfortable enough with your clinician that you can get that out. But there is no stigma here. You would come to us if you were a diabetic. If your blood sugar was off, we can fix that. We can fix this."
There are anti-depressant medications like Zoloft and Prozac. There is also the option of therapy. Plus, you can set goals for yourself like Nakaisha did. She was intentional about ending her isolation.
"I made myself make the phone calls to friends and schedule, even if it just an hour of time to go out and just sit with my girlfriends," she said.
Suggested Links
Now London is almost three years old, and with her doctors' help, Nakaisha says she is exercising, eating and sleeping better. She's no longer worried about being a super mom. She's just glad she's a happy mom.
"So much better. I love being a mom and my husband can definitely tell the difference. We can talk about the days when things weren't so happy and bright. I'm just happy to be in a better place. I can stand up and say I feel different. I'm better; I'm happier and I'm just glad to have made it through that," she said.
Do you think you're depressed? First, talk to your doctor. You can also consult Mental Health America of Indianapolis' resources.

Your husband has had a depressive episode 14 years back. You need to know that persons having one depressive episode in the past are more likely to have further episodes in later life. From your brief description it seems that your husband has a recurrence of depressive episode. In such a scenario it is advisable for your husband and you to seek psychiatric consultation at the earliest. A psychiatrist should be able to assess and correctly diagnose his condition. Treatment will follow an accurate diagnosis and assessment. Hope this helps you and your husband..

Some of us, not me, I'm well behaved, have been thrown out of a club before now. Some of you will know about that conversation afterwards with the bouncer, where you try to sweet talk him into letting you back in but never works. But how many of you REALLY tried to get back in?
This irish lad put in a right effort.
18-year-old Hugh McMahon had been on a working holiday in Australia for 12 months and had been partying in SinCity Nightclub in Surfers Paradise, until he got thrown out for falling asleep on a sofa. Then bouncers saw him back inside for a second time, having a boogie on the dancefloor, so threw him back out. They refused him entry a third time, so he tried to find another way in.
His best (or worst) idea was getting in via the roof.
He broke into the roof space of the club, and made his way through the air vent, as you do. Except it didn't go quite like John McClane in Die Hard, and he got stuck. He ended up getting stuck between pipes, and wrapped up in electrical wiring. Eventually emergency crews had to come to the club to help the plonker out.
Hugh pleaded guilty to trespassing, willful damage and two counts of being refused entry into a licensed premises, and was find £1410 in fines and damages. Damn.
During the sentencing, the magistrate said:
Drunk or sober, it was an absolutely remarkably stupid thing to have done.
You only have yourself to blame.

Guild Wars 2: The Shiny and the Not So Shiny
Continue Reading…
I always have to start any thoughts that deal with a fantasy setting with a caveat. High fantasy is not my preferred setting. I have nothing at all against it. I enjoy fantasy books, games, and shows/movies, but I'm much more into urban fantasy, modern settings, cyberpunk, space drama, technophilia, etc. So, I tend to be much pickier when it comes to anything high fantasy related because I lose interest quickly if there's nothing to anchor me there. End caveat.
I played Guild Wars and enjoyed it very much. My main character was a necromancer/hunter named Tara Xan (her name was supposed to be Xantara, but GW1 had that first name/last name rule then), and I had good times with her. When Guild Wars 2 was announced, it was almost a given that I'd be purchasing and playing the game. I'd been keeping up with the updates, and while I didn't participate in the beta, I would look at the information other players posted as well as reading official news from the site. I was pretty excited for it.
And I was completely enamored at first, distracted by all the shiny, but after two months, I'm really starting to pay attention to what I do and don't like about the game.
PvE is handled well. I like that in PvE, during events, you're working with your fellow players rather than against them. You don't have to be on a team to benefit from group events, and you don't have to feel like you need to do more than the next person to get a payoff from an event. In fact, the whole PvE method of playing seems to foster more camaraderie than rivalry, which makes it one of the better PvE environments I've played in. Players often help each other when they see someone in need. Players are also not shy about asking for help when they find themselves in a tough situation, and everyone is rewarded equally.
This game is dynamic enough that you're required to play your profession in (mostly) a smart manner. Having the best gear and specs doesn't mean that you're going to burn through everything in the game. You're still faced with enough of a challenge that if you're not really prepared for what's going on around you, you could find yourself respawning at the nearest waypoint before you know it. I'm sure people have probably found ways to make any given profession seem near godly, but for the most part, the game tries and (mostly) succeeds in trying to put everyone on equal footing.
You're always scaled to the relative level of the zone you're in if you're leveled much higher than the zone. If you're in a zone that is level 1-15 and you're L30, you're scaled to the appropriate level. Even in the same zone, you make go through multiple level scales as you move to different areas that are higher or lower levels. This is not true of a low-level player going to a PvE zone that is much higher than they are, though. You're just suicidal if you're a L20 trying to fight in an L60 zone. I know some people hate this aspect of the game, but I do enjoy it. It keeps me challenged in all zones.
Experiencing the vast world of Tyria through other races is a big plus as well, especially since in the last game we could only play as humans. And I think it's particularly interesting that the charr were included as a playable race in this game. I do understand the disappointment surrounded around not being able to really acknowledge your Guild Wars character(s) contributions to this new era or connect them in some tangible way to a new human character, though, but a little creativity goes a long way in creating a shared history for your old character and your new one. I only have one real complaint here. Sometimes, I still feel there is a heavy human slant on the story as characters move away from their "home" areas and start to branch out since so many human characters like Queen Jennah play such an important role in the story right now. I haven't completed any of the personal storylines to the end yet, so this opinion may change in the future.
Crafting is fun in this game… once you figure it out. I'm not the type of person who hates crafting, but in some games, it can be tedious, but often necessary. While the crafting is pretty straightforward, there was a brief moment when I had no idea what I was doing until I slowed down and paid attention. I enjoy seeing what new combinations I'll come up with by combining various materials together. It also helps that the experience gained from it can be nice.
I can't speak on sPvP or WvWvW because I haven't really experienced those two areas, and I don't know when I will. But overall, I'm a casual MMO player, and this allows you to be as casual or as hardcore as you want to be. I know I probably haven't covered everything I liked, but let's go on to the not-so-shiny parts.
|All the utilities on my L61
I'm an alt-o-holic. I love making new characters, so what I'm about write pains me. I've gotten to a point in this game where I ask myself, "Why would I want to make another character in this game? What would be the point?" No matter what type of character I make in this game, I will always have the same weapon skills and the same utilities. There will be no variety, except for the little variety I add myself in how I decide to play my character. I'll give you an example. I could make two engineers and play one as a demolitionist, which I am doing now, and I could play one as a turrets expert. However, it's actually possible to do that with just one character since I discovered, with my L61 Guardian, that you can technically get just about every utility with one character.
Add that to the fact that there is little variance in the personal story. You have some control over your story and choices, but not that many or even choices that impact the story in profound ways. You're always going to come to the same conclusion no matter what you do, and there's nothing wrong with that per se since that can be said of just about all games. However, when you add lack of skill/utility change with lack of story change, your answer equals monotonous. If I had the chance to get excited about possible weapon skill choices as I leveled and utilities that I cared about, I wouldn't care that the personal story is only so-so. Likewise, if the story was phenomenal but the skills/powers were handled as they are now, I would still be eager to see the rest of the story.
|Have to take 5 powers to get more crap
Utilities aren't that great in this game, and you don't know how much it grates my nerves that I have to take so many utilities I don't want and/or are too crappy just to get to my next set of utilities just to find out I have even more crap that I don't want. Yay! There are way too many repeat utilities with just one more condition or one more boon, and some of them are way too ineffective with ridiculously long cool downs to be of any real use. And some of them leave me scratching my head wondering when such a power would ever be useful except in very specific circumstances where they still might not be that useful.
The weapons are the biggest disappointment for me, though. I liked that they restricted what you can use based on class, but weapon skills are so ridiculously limited. You only get five attacks no matter what, and they will always be the same based on what weapon you use no matter what. You don't get to select what you want with your weapons. No, the game essentially tells you, "This is what you're going to get with your weapons. And that's that. Love it or leave it." You also can pretty much level all your weapons up the minute you get past the "tutorial" part, which means that you'll know what you prefer before level 10, but you'll also be playing those same weapon skills with no change for the next 70 or so levels.
And while I appreciate that this is done partly to make characters self-sufficient in or out of a group and not try to fit themselves into a mold of being a tank, healer, or whatever, it's still dull. It seems like there would be more weapon skills to make gameplay interesting without the worry that someone may try to fit into a "defined role." Everyone has the same skills. Everyone tends to use their skills in similar ways. There's no real incentive to make another character of the same class because very little would change. You may find a few creative ways to use your skills, but not many.
|All the skills my L61 has (and will ever have)
The personal stories in this game are okay. Some parts are more amusing or touching than others. I feel like there should've been more depth to, at least, the parts of the storyline that are personal to characters, but I guess giving it any substantial depth might've made it hard to make it unique to the players' characters. But if they added more depth to other parts of the creation of the story or more substantial decisions/actions/responses in regards to the personal story, I think they could've come up with something more worthwhile. Not saying the whole thing should've been dictated to the point that there's no leeway for players to craft their own tale, but so far, I haven't been truly impressed with any personal story in any race.
You can only do your personal story up to a point, and then, you're bound to get to a place where your next quest will be much higher than you can handle alone or even with a group. There's nothing wrong with that, but then, you're left to grind in the meantime by exploring and filling hearts (completing tasks in different areas for NPCs). I like that this encourages exploring, but why are there no real side quests rather than just area tasks, gathering, and vista hunting?
Why aren't there short side mission stories? Why can't I do a short mission where I might personally help an NPC find out what happened to a friend/family member that joined the separatists and are now missing? That would break of the monotony of filling hearts where you fundamentally do much of the same things, anyway. And if you have a character of every class like I do, then, you're pretty much doing the same things repeatedly in the same zones to level up.

Why aren't there short side mission stories? Why can't I do a short mission where I might personally help an NPC find out what happened to a friend/family member that joined the separatists and are now missing? That would break of the monotony of filling hearts where you fundamentally do much of the same things, anyway. And if you have a character of every class like I do, then, you're pretty much doing the same things repeatedly in the same zones to level up.
Events do help break that up a little, but you do the same events with some variation at times in the same area so many times that it becomes part of the grind. Why should I keep helping Curtis defend his farm from bandits every 10 minutes? Curtis, it is time for you to consider a career change and a possible relocation from the area you reside. What do you expect to happen when there is a bandit camp 50 yards away, Curtis? Did you think they would bring you cookies because you're neighbors? Did you not invite them to your slumber party and now they're pissed?
|Curtis, please...
And that brings me to another thing that irks me about the story. Relations between so many races are tense, especially charr and humans, and there's this big deal about uniting the races and the different guilds to fight the dragons. However, when I'm doing hearts in charr dominated areas as a human, there's no chance for a human to express grievances if they're doing things that a human might not think is good taste (ex. pillaging human graves with the charr) or even express dissatisfaction if a charr says something that a human might find generally offensive when conversing with them. Why would the human that I'm playing, who is just now learning to work with and trust the other races in my canon for her, not speak up in the dungeon when Rytlock is baiting the human ghosts? And this works the other way around, as well, and with other races besides the humans and charr.
I have some other things that annoy me (like the bots keeping areas bone dry when I need to fill a heart), but I think I've written enough for right now. Working my way through storylines that I'm vaguely interested in and exploring/doing quests with my friends are the main reasons that I'm still playing, but I'm starting to break away a little to play other things like Borderlands.

Question: My boyfriend lives in a flat in Shoreditch and pays a large amount of money every six months to some managing agents for his service charge. He says he never gets any information about what the service charge is spent on. The block is certainly not kept very well considering the amount he pays. Service charges are confusing what should he know about this charge?
Answer: Landlords can levy such a charge in return for services they provide. There are various ways in which your boyfriend can find out details about his particular service charge. His lease should set out the services that his landlord covenants to provide, such as general maintenance and repairs to the building in which your boyfriend's flat is situated, insurance of the building, lighting and cleaning of common areas etc.
The lease should also set out how and when the service charge is to be paid, whether the landlord may appoint and charge for managing agents to manage the building, and it may also provide for the service charge to include a payment towards a reserve or sinking fund.
The lease will provide for the preparation of annual service charge accounts within a certain period after the end of the service charge year. Your boyfriend can also request information about his service charge from his landlord, such as summaries of the service charge account and insurance, and he is entitled to inspect relevant accounts receipts and other documents. Indeed the service charge demand should contain certain key information for example, where to serve notices. If it doesn't, your boyfriend could argue that the service charge is not payable.
What's your problem?

Ppsio2.sys is a Windows driver. A driver is a small software program that allows your computer to communicate with hardware or connected devices. This means that a driver has direct access to the internals of the operating system, hardware etc. The free file information forum can help you determine if ppsio2.sys is a Windows system file or if it belongs to an application that you can trust.
Run a free scan to check for ppsio2 drivers in need of updating
The process known as Flatbed DevDriver/NT4 (version v3.25 Build 315, v3.23 Build 312) belongs to software Flatbed DevDriver/NT4 by unknown.
Description: Ppsio2.sys is not essential for the Windows OS and causes relatively few problems. The ppsio2.sys file is located in the C:\Windows\System32\drivers folder.
Known file sizes on Windows 10/8/7/XP are 22,400 bytes (75% of all occurrences) or 23,200 bytes.
The driver can be started or stopped from Services in the Control Panel or by other programs. The file is a file with no information about its developer. The program is not visible. The service has no detailed description. It is not a Windows system file. Therefore the technical security rating is 41% dangerous, however you should also read the user reviews.
Recommended: Identify ppsio2.sys related errors
Important: Some malware disguises itself as ppsio2.sys, particularly when not located in the C:\Windows\System32\drivers folder. Therefore, you should check the ppsio2.sys process on your PC to see if it is a threat. We recommend Security Task Manager for verifying your computer's security. This was one of the Top Download Picks of The Washington Post and PC World.
Summary: Average user rating of ppsio2.sys: based on 2 votes with 2 user comments. One user thinks ppsio2.sys is essential for Windows or an installed application. One user thinks it's probably harmless.
A clean and tidy computer is the key requirement for avoiding problems with ppsio2. This means running a scan for malware, cleaning your hard drive using cleanmgr and sfc /scannow, uninstalling programs that you no longer need, checking for Autostart programs (using msconfig) and enabling Windows' Automatic Update. Always remember to perform periodic backups, or at least to set restore points.
Should you experience an actual problem, try to recall the last thing you did, or the last thing you installed before the problem appeared for the first time. Use the resmon command to identify the processes that are causing your problem. Even for serious problems, rather than reinstalling Windows, you are better off repairing of your installation or, for Windows 8 and later versions, executing the DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth command. This allows you to repair the operating system without losing data.
To help you analyze the ppsio2.sys process on your computer, the following programs have proven to be helpful: Security Task Manager displays all running Windows tasks, including embedded hidden processes, such as keyboard and browser monitoring or Autostart entries. A unique security risk rating indicates the likelihood of the process being potential spyware, malware or a Trojan. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware detects and removes sleeping spyware, adware, Trojans, keyloggers, malware and trackers from your hard drive.

The Other Side of the Room...
I yank the heavy door open, and am blinded by the sun reaching across the room to push my eyelids shut. I stop and am bumped from behind by the people following, anxious to get in to class on time as well.
Despite the lightning bright sun, I feel that the room is chilled and impersonal. My eyes adjust to the brightness, and I veer left to step sideways to my chosen seat. Today it is not taken. Yay!
I don't know why I am so happy about MY chair not being taken. It is a hospital gray plastic monstrosity waiting to ice my butt. I breathe a sigh of relief as Alanna is not here yet, and I have time to fight with my backpack to get out all the Accoutrements of the class before she starts teaching and I have to be quiet.
I checked my cell phone to make sure it was off, and while hearing the beep beep beep of the cellphone lowering I hear other people scrambling to turn theirs off as well. I click my computer plug into the white extension cord that is hanging above the bright orange cord extending across the room for the people in the middle seats to plug-in their computers, and I shimmy back into MY chair. I start up my computer and hear the other computers in the room echoing the loud start up sound that won't be quiet even with the headphones already attached to the silver monster. Why would anyone make such an annoyance. People are trying so hard to be quiet in Alanna's class, and each and every computer has that blaring sing-song quality to announce to anyone within a one block radius that it is turned on. Ah well, take a deep breath and put your hands over your nose to warm up, I told myself.
The quiet chatter in the background stifles immediately as Alanna breezes into the room with a cheerful smile and a knowing gaze as she scans the room to see who is already here. We wait patiently as she sets up her white computer and searches for the speaker attachment, the projector-on button, and the proper selector for computer, DVD, or DVD computer, whichever it will be today. I wince when I hear that as she plugs in the speakers to her computer, they are already turned on, and I am chilled even more by the sound that emits from them.
Another class is about to start.
13 weeks of training are almost over today, and now the real test has begun. 23 recommended and required chapters, a mid-term, a stack of note cards handed back, a learning contract, various in-class and online assignments and at least 4 group activities later I am still mystified as to what we are learning here!
I know I've learned how to be quiet, and how to put my mittens under my butt to keep warm, and how to train myself in the art of organizing accessories for quick retrieval and quiet mode, and how not to laugh when I spot the bunny going by one way and then the other in incessant hops through the bush outside our classroom window just as Alanna reaches an epiphany of discussion within the class.
must ready myself for the final test. I hope that the heating unit in the building will be prepared so that I am not distracted by my breath fogging up my glasses and the sniffling of students stressed bodies fighting the illness that comes from lack of sleep and bad nutrition as they consistently head out the door every morning of the finals without breakfast in a mad frenzy to get to class on time.
I have my loonies and quarters ready for the vending machine coffee that purports to warm me up, and my extra packs of Kleenex and cough drops for those snivelers, and a pair of ear plugs to keep my senses focused. I think I'm ready.
I look around the room, and see that Alex is day dreaming again; Joey is quietly laughing at a joke he told himself; Emma is chatting with her friend, and Jen is cocking her ear the same as me to hear what Alanna is saying; although I am doing that because of the sounds in my head that are distracting me. I hear myself saying things like, "What is Lucas staring at?" or "Why does Arlee have her hands in her pockets?" Then I thought, "Oh, maybe she's cold too", and I turn my attention back to Alanna. Darn, she's stopped talking and is waiting for an answer to a question I missed with all my chattering. Then I thought that it's a good thing I'm a woman and I can multitask. I scanned through my memory and found her question just as she raised her eyebrows at me. So, I answered, "Phenomenology, p-h-e-n-o-m-e-n-o-l-o-g-y?" She looked at me with exasperation, so I screwed my face up and shrugged my shoulders saying, "Sorry, I wasn't listening".
The whole class laughed. Then I woke up in the JLL Lounge. Darn, I was going to be late for class...

(Photo: Business Wire)Clarity Matrix Touch combines DViT™ (Digital Vision Touch) technology from SMART Technologies with Planar's ultra-thin LCD video wall system and proprietary ERO™ (Extended Ruggedness and Optics™) optically-bonded glass touch surface. The new integrated touch solution is ideal for adding interactivity to busy retail locations, corporate environments, collaborative meeting rooms, and military or utility mapping rooms. "Touch is changing the world of video displays," said Steve Seminario, senior director of product marketing for Planar Systems. "Clarity Matrix Touch enables new levels of user interaction, collaboration and annotation previously unachievable with a turnkey video wall solution. Planar makes it easier than ever to specify, install, and maintain a world-class interactive media wall." Until now, implementing touch on LCD video walls has required integration of third-party components or ground-up custom design from system integrators, requiring significant time and effort. In addition to customized installation and configuration, integrators have had to install large panels of glass in front of the video wall to create a touch-enabled surface and in doing so endure issues associated with complexity of installation and service, increased costs, increased thermal load and compromised visual performance and safety. "Over the past few years, we've witnessed an increasing demand for products that feature our DViT technology as a growing number of customers around the world continue to seek high quality touch and annotation capabilities for larger displays," said Linda Thomas, vice president, products, for SMART Technologies, a leading provider of collaboration solutions. "The Clarity Matrix Touch solution will enable customers to deploy larger touch-enabled surfaces quickly and easily to enhance collaboration for all users."

Bathroom Golf
By Kickntrue on 12/4/07
The holidays are coming so I thought I'd give a couple of golf gift ideas. How about a golf toilet seat? If that doesn't do it for you, try shower curtain or toilet golf.
If none of that works- check THIS out! It's not golf related but it is certainly AWESOME!

According to the International Constitution, the President is elected by the world citizens with a 60% majority vote, for a 9-year term. In the event the President leaves office, the Vice-President finishes the term.
The President is the ceremonial head of state of the Federation.
