Yeah. Hi. New games. Fun times.
I swear, my games are literally annual at this point.
1. There are none.
While this isn't a rule, there is something I'd like to mention:
If you have any advice for me on how to improve my writing, please let me know. I'm always striving to improve my writing, so constructive criticism is appreciated.
Special Twist Thing
All of the tributes are guilty (or not) of some sort of crime, ranging from just being a generally useless and unproductive person to intentionally killing fifty people for no reason.
There won't be any chariot rides or training, because all these people are "failures" and deserve treatment as such.
Instead of a bloodbath, everyone will be herded into a large room and given a bag full of supplies and a random weapon, Battle Royale style. Then they'll all shuffle out of the room in a nice orderly fashion or something pleasant like that.
The age range is increased to 12-30.
Name, Gender, Age, District, Skills, Weaknesses, Personality, Appearance, Crime (and whether they're guilty or not)
History (I'd really prefer if you included this), Preferred Weapon(s), Token, Strategy (I highly recommend you include this) anything else that you want to include.
No spots left. YOU MISSED YOUR CHANCE.

Slashed out= Dead
This time around, the arena is IN SPAAAAACE.
Just kidding.
This time around, the arena is a small town full of half-built skyscrapers. A small area around the town full of caves and the like is also part of the arena, and a giant (rather out of place) clock tower stands in the very middle of the town.
All of the mutts created for the Failure Games were personally named by President Newton.
Justice: A mysterious creature that emerges from the clock tower from 12-1 AM and 3-4 AM. Not much is known about it at this point.
Virtue: Flying spider/wasp mutants that are about the size of a tribute. If that isn't a horrifying image, I don't know what is.
Vengeance: A large hagfish-like creature that burrows into the bodies of dead (or, possibly, living) tributes and takes control of their body. The undead tribute will attack anything within it's sight range, and will only stop once the Vengeance within is destroyed. SYMBOLISM!
Only 3 Vengeances exist. So far, one of them has been destroyed by Ophyra Grate.
"Hello, respectable members of the Panem community. I'm sure that many of you out there will appreciate the special rules we have in store for this year's Quarter Quell. We will not be holding Reapings this year. Instead, we are plucking several of the...less adequate members of society to participate in the games. Yes, this year, anyone who is sentenced guilty of a crime has a chance of being entered into the games as punishment. This year, redemption shall substitute tragedy. This year, the failures of society will compete for who deserves to resume living a respectable lifestyle. This year, justice will be served."
-The new president, President Newton
After the tributes are brought to the Capitol, they are instantly transported to the Arena. President Newton had this to say:
"These criminal scum do not deserve such luxuries as training and relaxation."
After all the tributes arrive at the Arena, they are shuffled into a large building on the south side of the half-built town. Before them stands a large man with a large, bright smile on his face. His brown hair is neat and slicked back, and his teeth are a perfect white. He wears a rather standard grey business suit with a red tie. Near him lay about 26 or so green duffel bags. After all the tributes get settled, the man suddenly speaks up.
"Greetings, tributes participating in this year's Hunger Games! I, as I'm sure you all know, am President James Newton. I've come to personally welcome you to this year's Games, and to wish you all good luck at achieving redemption!" His smile suddenly disappears, being instantly replaced by a much more aggressive expression. "Of course, none of you deserve redemption...you're all criminal scum, undeserving of such an honor..." Most of the tributes grit their teeth at this, but manage to hold themselves back thanks to the particularly discouraging armed guards in the room. "...but I'm willing to grant reprieve to the most skilled of you. Moving on to the rules..."
President Newton pulls a clicker out of his pocket and presses a button, activating a projector that's set up on the far wall. A large, blank white background is projected onto the wall behind the president. He presses the button again, projecting a picture of the green duffel bags set down nearby onto the wall. "Each of you will grab a duffel bag and leave when, and only when, your name is called. Whichever duffel bag you choose is up to you."
Another click of the clicker projects a picture of the building they're in. "You may not engage in combat with another tribute until you're off the premises of this building. If you choose to ignore this rule, you will be instantly executed."
Click. This time, a large clock tower appears on the screen. "The clock tower is off limits most of the day. The only exceptions are between 12 AM and 1 AM, and 3 AM to 4 AM. If you choose to ignore this rule, you will be instantly executed."
Click. A picture of a mangled dummy appears on the screen. The president coughs. "That is, uh...that is supposed to be a dead tribute. Use your imaginations." He coughs again, this time clearing his throat. "If you successfully eliminate one of your competitors, you are allowed to do whatever you wish with their body, as long as you leave their face intact enough that we are able to recognize them."
He tosses the clicker aside. "Those are the rules. Be sure to follow them, if people like you are even capable of such a thing...and one last piece of advice from me." He looks around the room with a suddenly cold gaze. "Trust no one. If you think you know someone, you don't. Not anymore." With that last statement, he walks out of the building. Someone among the tributes remarks "What a dick.".
A few minutes after the president's departure, the guards begin calling out the names of the tributes one by one. They start with the District 1 male and end with the District 12 female. The whole process goes by surprisingly quickly, despite how each of the 26 tributes is called up one at a time and are given ample time to leave the premises before the next tribute is called.
The Games
Day 1
So much for the Careers.
Anders Longtail paces back and forth, remembering how the guards forced him away before he could regroup with the other members. He tried to leave a trail of rubble (there was plenty just lying around), but no one seems to have picked up on it. At least he managed to find a pretty nice place to hang out in. It seems to be one of the more fully built buildings in the town, with most of the first and second floor being completely fleshed out.
He sighs and sits down in a nearby chair after pacing a bit more, idly looking around the waiting room that he's resting in. His eyes suddenly focus on the green duffel bag he's been carrying around. Why didn't I check this earlier?, he wonders to himself. *coughcough* Because I had to give exposition *coughcough*. After simply gazing at it a bit longer, he picks it up and unzips the zipper, peering at the contents inside. Within the bag are a simple sleeping bag, some canned food (with a can opener, luckily), a few bottles of water, and...a spoon.
...You've got to be kidding me, he thinks. My weapon is a spoon!?
As he ponders over the possible death sentence that he's been handed, he hears the sound of rubble cracking against the ground. Shit, an enemy?, he scowls, grabbing the spoon tightly in one hand and rising stealthily out of his chair. The noises seem to be coming gradually closer, so he hides behind a wall near the only entrance to the room with his "weapon" raised. He stands there for a while, listening to the sounds grow closer before stopping right before the door that leads to the waiting room. Anders feels his breath catch in his throat as he prepares to strike.
Suddenly, the door opens. Anders holds his spoon high in preparation for the coming moment. In strolls Peaches Vamp, seemingly totally unaware that a maniac wielding a spoon is about to beat her. Anders stares at her for a moment before recognition fills his mind and he lowers his "weapon". Peaches looks around for a moment before noticing him standing there, holding a spoon.
"Hey, Anders! So you were the one who laid the trail, huh?" She grins at him, inwardly barely holding herself back from killing the bastard on the spot. Anders nods, letting out a sigh of both relief and disappointment. "Yeah, that was me. I'm glad one of you idiots finally noticed." He peers behind her to see if anyone is following her. "Did you bring anyone else with you?" Peaches shakes her head, looking a bit pouty. "Those guards kicked me out before I could wait for anyone else..." "Seems we're in the same situation, then." Anders nods and shuts the door before sitting down, shortly joined by Peaches. "Say..." Anders speaks up, looking at Peaches's duffle bag. "What weapon did you get?"
Peaches shrugs and unzips it, foraging around in it for a moment before pulling out a large, orange chainsaw. She's barely able to keep an evil grin from settling on her face. Anders's envy is obvious. "How the hell is that fair!?" Peaches shrugs innocently and revs it up before experimentally slicing a nearby chair neatly in half. "Aaaaah...that's the stuff." Peaches grins widely, unable to hold it back anymore. She looks over at Anders and flashes him a smile. "Let's go find the others...partner~"
Alex Haines can hardly believe her luck.
Her eyes examine every crevice of her sniper rifle, making sure that there aren't any traps to discourage her from using such a powerful weapon. It seems she has limited ammo (she's only got about 5 or 6 bullets), but if she's careful, those bullets will get her 6 kills.
Still, the gun will take a bit of getting used to. It's best not to waste her ammo practicing her shooting. She folds the rifle up and places it back in her duffle bag before standing up and taking a look around. Where would be a good place to set up an observation post? Her eyes slowly wander over the tall, half-built skyscrapers around her before settling on a particularly fully-built building.
That'll do.
Why'd I have to get stuck with this guy?
Guy Shotgun laments over his current position, stuck with quite possibly his least favorite other member of the Careers. Even though they're from the same District, Korrey Arlington simply rubs him the wrong way. Hell, the only reason he's even putting up with him is because going on his own would be inviting death upon himself.
"Oi, cocky brat..." Guy speaks up with a confrontational tone. "You found any trace of other tributes yet?" Korrey waves off his attempt at taunting him. "Not yet, man. Maybe instead of standing around and pouting like a little kid, you should look around yourself?" Korrey responds with a sneer.
Guy scowls and storms up to him, grabbing him by the collar. "Goddamn it, I don't have to put up with you! I could kill you right now and get rid of your smug ass!" Korrey smacks his hand away and fixes his collar. "I wouldn't be so hasty, Guy. You really think you could take care of some of these people on your own?" Guy seems to falter a bit at his question. "Well...probably..." Korrey simply laughs at his failed attempt to stand strong. "Look. While we work together, we both have a higher chance of surviving. I don't like you, and you don't like me, but that doesn't mean we can't kick some ass together." Guy frowns and looks away, tightly gripping the handle of his pistol. "Alright, fine. But the first chance I get, I'm offing you."
Korrey shakes his head and sighs. "You're hopeless."
Perspective switch: 1st Person
Selected target: Ophyra Grate
I think I'm lost.
Wait, scratch that. I am lost.
Let's see...I was following a trail of pebbles, one that was probably left by one of the other Careers (we had discussed this idea before the Games began in case we were split up), but it suddenly stopped in the middle of the street. I tried to find any traces of where the path went, but I couldn't find anything, so I ended up getting horribly lost just searching for the rest of the trail.
Well, retracing my steps didn't help much. Wonder what I should do now. Trying to find the trail again doesn't sound particularly enticing, so I'll just...wait. I think I see somebody up ahead. I can't quite recognize who it is from here, but it could be one of the other Careers...or it could be easy pickings.
Time to put my stealth skills to use.
Perspective switch: 3rd Person
Returning to default position...
Ophyra immediately crouches and sneaks over to a large piece of rubble, hiding herself behind it as she tries to identify who the tribute is. Whoever it is, they seem to have some sort of cancerous growth on their back. What it is, exactly, is hard to determine thanks to the arena uniform covering most of the person's body. Ophyra crouches there, waiting and observing as the tribute begins twitching unnaturally.
Suddenly, the tribute in question turns around, giving Ophyra a good view of his front. Isn't that...Thesil Jacobs?, Ophyra wonders, remembering how he approached the Careers before the Games began and requested to join them. Something's up with him...but what?
As Ophyra muses over the cause of Thesil's strange behaviour, she fails to notice him slowly edging closer. He looks as though he's continually stumbling as he walks, his eyes rolled back in their sockets and his mouth hanging slightly open. Ophyra notices that he's approaching her and quickly pulls the weapon she recieved out of her duffel bag before standing and stepping out from behind the large piece of rubble.
"Thesil...that's your name, right?" Ophyra asks, her hand tightening on her weapon as Thesil gradually heads towards her position. No response from Thesil. "Is this because we didn't let you join?" Still no response. Ophyra sighs and shrugs. "Well, if that's how you're going to be..." She pulls her weapon out from behind her back and points her glove covered hand at him, the claws fitted to the top of the glove glistening in the morning sun. "I'll just have to end you."
Thesil's head shakes about jerkily for a moment before he suddenly charges straight at Ophyra, rapidly swinging his arms around in some horrible imitation of boxing. Ophyra easily dodges his wild punches and slides behind him, wasting no time in slicing the back of his right leg and severing his hamstring. Thesil falls over, unable to support his weight without the crucial muscle, but quickly bounces back by pushing himself off the ground with enough force that he's sent airborne.
He soars towards Ophyra, resuming his crazy swinging motions in midair. Ophyra manages to dodge again, but she seems to have much more trouble this time. Thesil lands on the ground fist-first, creating a small crater around the impact zone. I knew he was strong, but not this strong...no human should be this strong!, Ophyra feels her breath catch in her throat in disbelief, and for the first time in a very long time, she hesitates. Her hesitation lasts but a moment, however, and she quickly speeds over to Thesil. Using her momentum to account for her lack of strength, she aims the blades of her glove straight for Thesil's neck.
Her sharp blades slice cleanly through his spine and the rest of the muscles in his neck, the force of the blow sending his head flying off a short distance away. Ophyra laughs and flicks the blood off of her clawed glove. "If only you'd calmed down, you wouldn't have lost your head."
As Ophyra begins to check the vicinity for Thesil's duffle bag (he must've dropped it somewhere nearby), his headless body slowly pulls itself up and begins walking towards her once again. Ophyra freezes mid-motion as she hears the rubble behind her shift and she quickly turns around, brandishing her claws once again. A short distance away, a headless Thesil stands, blood still spurting from the stump on his neck. Ophyra feels herself hesitate again, though it's a much more powerful reaction this time around.
She begins backing away slowly, stopping as she feels rough stone against her back as she finds herself backed against a wall. Thesil resumes slowly approaching her, his arms twitching with every movement. Ophyra holds her claw protectively in front of herself, taking deep breaths in an attempt to regain her composure. It takes but a few more steps for Thesil to begin charging at her like a raging bull once more, arms flailing in an attempt to strike her. As he does so, a worm-like head emerges from his neck, slithering out to gain sight of it's surroundings once more.
Ophyra has a moment of realization as she spots the worm emerge from Thesil's neck, and instantly regains her confidence as a plan forms. She dodges to the side of his wild charge and slices at his neck again. This time, however, he seems to be prepared. He quickly blocks her blow, the claws of her weapon embedding in his well-muscled forearm. She gasps and pulls her hand out of the glove, quickly backing away to avoid being hit. As she backs up, she suddenly trips over something lying on the ground, though she quickly regains her balance and examines what it is.
It seems to be Thesil's duffel bag.
She speedily begins rummaging through the bag, searching for the weapon Thesil recieved as fast as her arms can move and tossing supplies aside as she does. Ophyra feels her fingers touch something metal and quickly pulls it out before examining what exactly she's holding. She gives the weapon a rudimentary examination before turning around...almost twirling right into Thesil, who was standing right behind her. She looks up at the worm head and grins as Thesil pulls his arm back to punch her. She quickly pulls a small firecracker launcher out from behind her back and fires it right into the worm's mouth, causing the worm to gag as it soars past it's mouth and into it's throat.
The force of the shot causes the firecracker to go down the worm's esophagus, making it hack and claw at it's throat. It looks down at her with rage for a moment (despite not having any eyes) before it's head and part of Thesil's upper body explodes in a shower of brightly colored sparks, blasting Ophyra a short distance away.
She lands arm-first against a piece of rubble, crying out as an audible crack sounds from her left arm, and sinks to the ground. After lying there and regaining her strength for a moment, she stands and, softly clutching her arm, walks over to Thesil's body before kicking it to make sure he's dead. After kicking him a few more times and getting no response, she retrieves her claw from his arm and sticks it back on before walking over to where she was first spying on him and sitting down with her back against the large piece of rubble. A small smile appears on her face as she revels in her victory. Far away, the sound of a cannon shot can be heard.
Thesil Jacobs: Eliminated
Elsewhere, a small group of tributes sits around a makeshift campfire, the light from the flames illuminating the walls of the cave around them. They rest and catch their breath in total silence, the entire group rather tired after hiking across the entire city to reach one of the numerous caves surrounding it. The cave that they are currently in has a very spacious interior and only one entrance, so it's the perfect base camp for anyone, really. The only downside is the constant darkness without human intervention.
"This place seems nice enough." Jacob Antio speaks up after a while, casually examining his surroundings. "Yeah, we got lucky." Twix Juniper lies back on the reasonably cold floor, resting his head on the sleeping bag that was in his duffel bag. "This was a good plan. Great job, Catie!" Angelina Stotch smiles at Catie Oplit, understandably pleased with her. Catie nods and smiles back for a moment before returning her attention to her duffel bag as she forages through it.
Ruby Burn also sits among the group, though she remains quiet and focused as she stares at the marshmallow she's holding over the fire. She keeps a keen watch over it to make sure it doesn't burn, just as she's done with the previous few marshmallows. I'm glad we had the supplies we need to make s'mores, Ruby thinks happily to herself as she squishes the now well-cooked marshmallow between two graham crackers and a piece of chocolate and sets it down on a piece of cloth with the other few she's prepared. Counting them up to make sure there's enough for everyone, she nods and puts her s'mores supplies away before speaking up.
"The food is ready, everyone!" Ruby announces happily as she stands and begins handing them out, each tribute in the group gladly accepting their share and thanking her before digging into their snack. The tributes begin talking with each other as they eat, their conversations allowing them to get to know each other a little better. As the meal progresses, the group doesn't notice a tall, menacing shadow stretching across the cave floor as someone watches them from the entrance...
A few hours pass with no particularly interesting events occuring...
Samuel Sinser's gaze sweeps over his surroundings as he walks through the ruined town, searching for the figure he saw but a few moments ago. Whoever it was, something seemed to be wrong with their arm. Easy pickings.
After a few minutes of searching, Samuel finds something: a trail of blood, leading down an alleyway. At the very end of the alleyway, a female tribute rests. She's obviously exhausted, and she's clutching her left arm close to her body. Samuel grins as he backs up and pulls his (rather large) weapon out of his duffel bag.
It's not exactly something he's used to, but it shouldn't be that hard to use. The tribute looks up as he approaches, dragging a huge, double-bladed battle-axe close behind. Once he reaches her body, he takes the handle in both hands. The girl looks up at him as he stops in front of her and raises his weapon, feebly holding out her claw-gloved hand and forming a confident smile as her body trembles from the pain of her injuries. He grins at her useless show of bravado and raises his axe overhead before bringing it downwards onto her form.
The axe cleaves her cleanly in two and strikes with enough force to bite into the wall behind her. Both of her halves fall to the ground as Samuel pulls his axe from the indention it made in the ground below, a cannon booming in the distance to signify her death.
Samuel looks down at his latest victim's remains and laughs a single, brief laugh before propping the axe on his shoulders and returning to his stroll through the city.
Ophyra Grate: Bisected

Nov. 16, 2008
Poughkeepsie, N.Y. - The sixth-ranked Loyola men's soccer team suffered its first defeat of the season in a 1-nil setback against Fairfield on Sunday in the MAAC Championship at Leonidoff Field.
Fairfield's Jack Burridge scored the game's only goal in the 26th minute on a header from six-yards out.
The loss snaps Loyola's national-best 27-game unbeaten streak, and prevents the Greyhounds (18-1-1 overall, 9-0 MAAC season) from becoming the first team in the 26-year history of the MAAC to go undefeated in the entire regular season and then win the conference tournament.
The third-seeded Stags (11-7 overall, 6-3 MAAC season) scored the match's only goal at the 25:03 mark of the first period on Burridge's game-winner. Fairfield's Todd Rutledge dribbled to the right-side of the box, and then played a short cross into Burridge at the six-yard mark, who headed the attempt past goalkeeper Milos Kocic. Kocic got a hand on the shot but couldn't prevent the ball from going in.
The top-seeded Greyhounds had numerous chances to get the equalizer, none better than in the 61st minute. Midfielder Daniel Ankrah slid a pass across the box to forward Phil Bannister at the six-yard mark. Bannister put his shot on frame, but Stags' keeper Justin Burse made a nice sliding block of the attempt.
Loyola's Eddie Dines, playing in his first match in over a three weeks, had another good opportunity at the 71st minute to put his team on the board. He had a ball played into him in a crowded Fairfield box. He found enough space though to make a nice turnaround shot, but the attempt was blocked by Burse.
At the 78th minute, Loyola earned a corner kick. Charlie Hutton's service was played into the box, which resulted in a mad scramble. The ball found an open Tennant McVea, whose shot sailed over the crossbar.
McVea had another shot with three minutes remaining off a cross into a very congested box, but his attempt was pushed wide left.
Fairfield Matthew Uy nearly doubled his team's lead with two minutes remaining on a breakaway chance, but the shot sailed high and left.
Loyola's final gasp came with twenty seconds remaining. Hutton played a ball into the box, but Burse grabbed the service and ran out the clock, earning the Stags the MAAC Championship and a berth in the NCAA Tournament.
The Greyhounds outshot Fairfield, 11-8, for the match. Kocic had three saves.
Named to the All-Tournament team from Loyola was McVea, Bannister and sophomore midfielder Mike Deasel.
Loyola will now wait until Monday night to find out its draw in the NCAA Tournament. The Greyhounds, coaches, students and administrators will be hosting an NCAA College Cup viewing party. In the mold of an NCAA March Madness party, the event will take place tomorrow at 5 o'clock p.m. at McGuire Hall on Loyola's campus. The selection show is broadcast on ESPNews at 6 p.m.

The roots of verbs and most nouns in the Semitic languages are characterized as a sequence of consonants or "radicals" (hence also the term consonantal root). Such abstract consonantal roots are used in the derivation of actual words by adding the vowels and non-root consonants (or "transfixes") which go with a particular morphological category around the root consonants, in an appropriate way, generally following specific patterns. It is a peculiarity of Semitic linguistics that a large majority of these consonantal roots are triliterals (although there are number of quadriliterals, and in some languages also biliterals).
Triconsonantal roots
A triliteral or triconsonantal root (Arabic: جذر ثلاثي, ǧaḏr ṯalāṯī) is a root containing a sequence of three consonants.
The following are some of the forms which can be derived from the triconsonantal root k-t-b (general overall meaning "to write") in Hebrew and Arabic:
|Semitological abbreviation
|Hebrew name
|Arabic name
|Morphological category
|Hebrew Form
|Arabic form
|Approximate translation
|G verb stem
(Stem I)
|3rd. masc. sing perfect
|katabh כתב
|kataba كتب
|"he wrote"
|1st. plur. perfect
|katabhnu כתבנו
|katabnā كتبنا
|"we wrote"
|3rd. masc. sing. imperfect
|yikhtobh יכתוב
|yaktubu يكتب
|"he writes, will write"
|1st. plur. imperfect
|nikhtobh נכתוב
|naktubu نكتب
|"we write, will write"
|masc. sing. active participle
|kotebh כותב
|kātib كاتب
|Š verb stem
(Stem IV)
|3rd. masc. sing perfect
|hikhtibh הכתיב
|'aktaba أكتب
|"he dictated"
|3rd. masc. sing. imperfect
|yakhtibh יכתיב
|yuktibu يكتب
|"he dictates, will dictate"
|Št(D) verb stem
(Stem X)
|3rd. masc. sing perfect
|hitkattebh התכתב
|istaktaba استكتب
|"he corresponded" (Hebrew), "he asked (someone) to write (something), had a copy made" (Arabic)
|3rd. masc. sing. imperfect
|yitkattebh יתכתב
|yastaktibu يستكتب
|(imperfect of above)
|Noun with m- prefix and original short vowels:
|mikhtabh מכתב
|maktab مكتب
|"letter" (Hebrew), "office" (Arabic)
- Note: The Hebrew fricatives transcribed as "kh" and "bh" above are single phonetic sounds, which can also be transcribed in a number of other ways, such as "ch" and "v" (Eastern-European influenced) or [x] and [v] (IPA). They are transcribed "kh" and "bh" on this page to retain the connection with the pure consonantal root k-t-b.
In Hebrew grammatical terminology, the word binyan (Hebrew בנין, plural בינינים binyanim) is used to refer to a verb stem or overall verb derivation pattern, while the word Mishqal (or Mishkal) is used to refer to a noun derivation pattern, and these words have gained some use in English-language linguistic terminology. The Arabic terms, called وزن wazn, (plural أوزان, 'awzān) for the pattern and جذر ǧaḏr (plural جذور, ǧuḏūr) for the root have not gained the same currency as the Hebrew equivalents, and Western grammarians continue to use "stem"/"form"/"pattern" for the former and "root" for the latter (though "form" and "pattern" are literal translations of wazn, and "root" is a literal translation of ǧaḏr).
Biliteral origin of (some) triliteral roots
Ghil'ad Zuckermann says, "Note that although most roots in Hebrew seem to be tri-radical, many of them were originally bi-radical, cf. the relation between גזז √ g-z-z 'shear', גזמ √ g-z-m 'prune' and גזר√ g-z-r 'cut', as well as between פרז√ p-r-z 'divide a city', פרט √ p-r-ţ 'give change' and פרע √ p-r-' 'pay a debt'."[1] Zuckermann analyses the Hebrew root שקפ √ sh-q-p "look out/through" as deriving from קפ√ q-p "bend, arch, lean towards" (cf. קפח√ q-p-ħ, קפה√ q-p-h, קפא √ q-p-' and קפי √ q-p-y "arch, bend"), fitted into the shaé verb-pattern. "This verb-pattern is usually causative, cf. שטפ√ sh-ţ-p 'wash, rinse, make wet', from טפ √ ţ-p 'wet', as well as שלכ √ sh-l-k 'cast off, throw down, cause to go', from לכ √ l-k 'go'".[1]
Quadriliteral roots
A quadriliteral is a consonantal root containing a sequence of four consonants (instead of three consonants, as is more often the case). A quadriliteral form is a word derived from such a four-consonant root. For example, the abstract quadriliteral root t-r-g-m / t-r-j-m gives rise to the verb forms תרגם tirgem in Hebrew and ترجم tarjama in Arabic, meaning "he translated". In some cases, a quadriliteral root is actually a reduplication of a two-consonant sequence. So in Hebrew דגדג digdeg means "he tickled", and in Arabic زلزال zilzāl means "earthquake".
Generally, only a subset of the verb derivations formed from triliteral roots are allowed with quadriliteral roots. For example, in Hebrew the Pi``el, Pu``al, and Hitpa``el, and in Arabic forms similar to the stem II and stem V forms of triliteral roots.
Traditionally in the Semitic languages, forms with more than four basic consonants (i.e. consonants not introduced by morphological inflection or derivation) were occasionally found in nouns — mainly loanwords from other languages — but never in verbs. However, in modern Israeli Hebrew, syllables are allowed to begin with a sequence of two consonants (a relaxation of the situation in early Semitic, where only one consonant was allowed), and this has opened the door to apparent five root-consonant forms, such as טלגרף tilgref "he telegraphed". But, -lgr- always appears as an indivisible cluster in the derivation of this verb, so that these five root-consonant forms do not display any fundamentally different morphological patterns from four root-consonant forms (and the hypothetical term "quinqueliteral" would be misleading if it implied otherwise).
- apophony vs. transfixation (root-and-pattern)
- Arabic grammar
- broken plural
- nonconcatenative morphology
- Phono-semantic matching
- Proto-Indo-European root
- transfix

Alloway Hall (Venue 4), to Saturday
Australian comedian Trent Baumann has one slick act.
Clad in a tight Charlie Chaplin suit jacket, and armed with a bag of dodgy vaudevillian tricks, impeccable timing and a deadpan Steven Wright wit ("In a past life I was an amoeba. I've come a long way"), Baumann had a charmed audience eating out of his hand at his jet-lagged Canadian debut.
Along with standup comedy and storytelling, his 45-minute performance includes less than stupendous escape artistry, unskilled knife-throwing and a blatantly transparent magic trick. The crowd lapped it up, but Baumann's real talent is in his ability to wring laughs and applause out of periods when he's doing absolutely nothing. Sheer genius.

HOUSTON/WASHINGTON – Donald Trump takes center stage at a debate in Houston on Thursday as the favorite to win the Republican presidential nomination, with time running out on his remaining rivals to change a race rapidly tilting away from them.
Trump, 69, has won three of the first four contests in the nomination fight for the Nov. 8 election to succeed Democratic President Barack Obama. After easily defeating his rivals in Nevada on Tuesday, the New York billionaire businessman is in position for more victories on March 1, when Republican party contests will be held in 11 states on what is dubbed "Super Tuesday."
At a CNN-hosted debate at the University of Houston, Trump's rivals will have one of their last best chances to try to derail the blunt-spoken political outsider before Super Tuesday.
Whether they can pull it off is an open question. On stage with Trump will be U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, Ohio Gov. John Kasich and retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson. None has been able to slow Trump's momentum in previous debates.
"Trump is on cruise control," said Eric Fehrnstrom, a former senior adviser to 2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney. He said Trump should ignore his opponents and focus on the key planks in his platform — a border wall to keep out illegal immigrants, a stronger military, defeating Islamic State and fair trade.
"It's getting late in the game for everyone else," Fehrnstrom said. "People who are expecting a sudden shift in the direction of the race are deluding themselves. Trump is Goliath, and we've seen enough of the other candidates to know there are no Davids in this field."
Even so, while Trump has scored early victories and is well ahead in national opinion polls, he has some ways to go to clinch the party's nomination, which is decided by the number of delegates sent to the July party convention following the state-by-state nominating contests.
So far Trump leads the race with 81 delegates, with Cruz and Rubio well behind at 17 apiece. To secure the nomination, a candidate needs 1,237 delegates.
Super Tuesday will be critical because there are nearly 600 delegates at stake in Republican races that day.
Rubio, 44, has an added incentive to change the makeup of the race. He is scrambling to attract the financial donors who supported one-time establishment favorite Jeb Bush, the former Florida governor and Rubio's one-time mentor, who dropped out of the race after his disappointing finish in South Carolina on Saturday.
Bush, the son and brother of former presidents, held a conference call with his top donors on Wednesday. A donor on the call said Bush offered effusive thanks for their support but provided no direction on whom they should now help.
On Thursday, Tennessee Gov.r Bill Haslam endorsed Rubio. Predicting that Hillary Clinton, 68, would win the Democratic nomination, Haslam said Rubio would present a youthful face to the American people in the general election campaign.
"With Marco standing next to Hillary Clinton on a debate stage, the choice between the future and the past will be clear to every American," Haslam, a popular second-term Republican governor, said in a statement.
Cruz, 45, enters the debate under pressure. He must do well in his home state of Texas on Super Tuesday. Recently, he has been accused by his rivals of using negative tactics, including one that led to the resignation of his spokesman, Rick Tyler.
Cruz suffered another setback on Thursday when two Texas newspapers, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and the San Antonio Express-News, endorsed Rubio.
"While Rubio's message is generally optimistic and policy-driven, Trump and Cruz are often boorish, angry and divisive. Trump is not a conservative, just a manipulator of anger and disenfranchisement," said the Express-News, which had previously backed Bush.
Cruz had already been passed over for an endorsement by the state's two biggest newspapers, the Dallas Morning News and the Houston Chronicle.
Romney, who has not endorsed anyone yet, offered a pathway for attacking Trump, telling Fox News on Wednesday that Trump's tax records were bound to contain material that could be explosive.
"The reason I think there is a bombshell in there is because every time he is asked about his taxes, he dodges and delays and says: 'Well we're working on it,'" Romney said.
Trump, whose trademark on the campaign trail has been rapid and aggressive criticism of rivals and critics, tweeted in response: "Mitt Romney, who totally blew an election that should have been won and whose tax returns made him look like a fool, is now playing tough guy."
In the Democratic race, Clinton has faced a stiff challenge from the left by U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont. Sanders won overwhelmingly in the New Hampshire primary, one of the early nominating contests, and in Iowa finished just barely behind Clinton. The next Democratic contest is on Saturday in South Carolina, where polls predict Clinton will win.
Can any of Trump's rivals find the magic words to stop his triumphal march toward the Republican presidential nomination?
The Grand Old Party's White House contenders face that question as never before as they gather in Houston Thursday for their last debate before "Super Tuesday," the delegate-rich, single-day run of a dozen state primaries on March 1.
The five-way debate, which begins at 7:30 p.m. local time (0130 GMT Friday) and will be carried live by CNN, promises to be stormy.
By turns boastful, mocking or menacing, Trump has hit on a style that has seduced a growing and increasingly diverse share of Republican voters — to the dismay of his rivals, who have struggled to find an effective angle of attack against the 69-year-old billionaire.
Sens. Rubio and Cruz, the only two candidates given any chance of beating Trump, know that the stakes on this Texas evening could not be higher.
Retired neurosurgeon Carson is still in the race but hardly anyone seems to be paying him attention.
Kasich, who has a more moderate and less gloomy message about the state of America than his rivals, knows he will be under mounting pressure to withdraw from the race so that the "anti-Trump" forces can coalesce around Rubio.
Trump seems unfazed by that possibility.
"It's going to be an amazing two months," he boasted in a victory speech in Nevada Tuesday, confidently predicting sweeping wins that will clinch the nomination long before the Republican convention in Cleveland in July.
"We might not even need the two months, to be honest."
After three consecutive victories — in New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada — and with his fron-trunner status confirmed by the polls, some wonder whether Trump will tone down his incendiary rhetoric, and adopt a more "presidential" pose.
Will he attack Rubio with the same ferocity, now that longtime whipping post Jeb Bush has stepped out the ring?
"Marco Rubio's a nice young man. I can't hit him, he hasn't hit me," Trump said this week.
But, "when he hits me, oh, is he going to be hit."
Several hours before the debate, a Quinnipiac University poll sounded what could be a death knell for the hopes of party elders intent on blocking Trump's advance: it showed Trump handily winning in Florida, Rubio's home state.
It found that 44 percent of Republicans in the state would vote for Trump, and only 28 percent for Rubio. Cruz would place third with 12 percent, according to the Feb. 21-24 survey of likely Republican primary voters.
"If Rubio can't win in his home state, it is difficult to see how he can win elsewhere," said Peter Brown, the poll's assistant director.
The Florida primary, which will be held March 15, is the juiciest prize of the Republican nomination race because the winning candidate scoops up all its 99 delegates.
Within the Republican party, some still expect a long fight and cling to a scenario in which three candidates — Trump, Rubio and Cruz — stay in the race until the convention, with none gaining an absolute majority of delegates — 1,237 out of a total 2,472.
In this case, after a first round, delegates would be released from their initial commitment and could vote for the candidate of their choice in a second round, thereby reshuffling the electoral deck.

GLOBAL IMPACT OF ASIA's POLLUTION
GLOBAL IMPACT OF ASIA's POLLUTION
2007-03-06 at 10:26:00 am #17720
Global impact of Asia's pollution
pollution coming from Asia is having a wider effect on global weather
and climate than previously realised, research suggests.The "Asian
haze" of soot is boosting storms in the Pacific, scientists find.It is
also enhancing the growth of large clouds, which play a key role in
regulating climate globally.Writing in the journal Proceedings of the
National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), the researchers say impacts may be
felt as far away as the Arctic."It's a complex picture," observed study
leader Renyi Zhang from Texas A&M University in College Station,
US."But the bottom line is that the aerosols actually enhance
convection and increase precipitation over a large domain," he told the
BBC News website
Hot water
clean air legislation has reduced production of industrial aerosols -
fine particles of dust, soot and sulphur – in Europe and North America,
the opposite trend is seen in Asia.Here, rapid industrialisation has
led to the formation of a pollution haze which is especially marked in
winter as coal burning increases.Sulphur emissions have increased by
more than one-third over the last decade.These aerosols drive cloud
formation, as water droplets coalesce around the tiny particles.When
aerosols are abundant, the droplets stay too small to form rain. Under
these conditions, clouds may grow bigger and last for longer.When the
clouds are of the type known as deep convective clouds, this means they
also transmit more heat from the Earth's surface into the higher
atmosphere.Deep convective clouds play a key role in regulating the
global climate; and the role of aerosols in cloud development remains
the major uncertainty in forecasting climate change.
Clouding up
the latest research, Professor Zhang and his colleagues used satellite
records to show that the amount of deep convective clouds over the
north Pacific has increased.Coverage for the period 1994-2005 was
between 20% and 50% higher than in the preceding decade.With increased
clouds and increased convection came a growth in storminess – the
"storm track" – over the ocean.Computer models suggest that the trends
are being driven by Asian aerosol production, rather than by other
factors such as changes in ocean temperature."The storm track regulates
the jet stream," commented Professor Zhang. "And if more heat is being
transported from lower to higher latitudes, that is going to have a
large effect on the global circulation."But the link between clouds and
aerosols works in the opposite direction too. Clouds transport the tiny
particles, and more abundant and persistent clouds will transport them
further – even to polar regions, Professor Zhang suggests.Some studies
have suggested that accumulation of these particles is changing the
properties of Arctic ice, making it absorb more of the Sun's
energy.This would mean the ice is more prone to melting, as well as
reducing the Earth's capacity to reflect solar energy back into space.

I think we've got a really good hot-rod when it comes to drafting.
TREVOR BAYNE – No. 21 Good Sam Ford Fusion (Qualified 11th)
HAS IT BEEN DIFFERENT AS FAR AS LOOKING FOR DRAFTING PARTNERS THIS WEEKEND? "It's been a little different. Now we've got people asking us if they can be on our radio channel, so it's totally different. We've got a good race car. I was kind of worried about our best car being in the Daytona museum, but this one seems to be pretty fast, too. We didn't do any single-car runs yesterday, so we didn't know what we would have in qualifying, but I think we've got a really good hot-rod when it comes to drafting. Talking to David Ragan and Carl Edwards and Marcos Ambrose, hopefully we can find one of them and go to the front again. If David and I qualify beside each other, that would be really good for us, so we'll see what happens."
CARL EDWARDS – No. 99 Aflac Ford Fusion (Qualified 20th)
"Our Aflac Fusion was OK. It looks like our teammates are pretty fast, but this is really gonna boil down to a two-car draft and how you work in the race, and being there at mile 480 when you've really got to go for those final 20 miles. Is this still the Aaron's 499? I was thinking about that the other day because when I was in the fence that one time, I think I won the Aaron's 499. So I've won the Aaron's 499, but I've not won the 500-miler yet. We've got to make that extra half-mile or so to the finish line and hopefully we can do that."
DAVID RAGAN – No. 6 UPS Ford Fusion (Qualified 7th)
"It's kind of an easy day here. Our UPS team did a nice job yesterday. We made some drafting runs and really didn't do any mock qualifying runs, so we didn't know what to expect, but that's a great lap for our UPS team. This is the same car we ran well with at Daytona, so it's always fun to come back to Talladega. A lot of friends and family come over for the race and I can't wait for Sunday."
YOU WON A NATIONWIDE RACE HERE. WILL THE SAME STRATEGY FOR THAT WIN COME INTO PLAY ON SUNDAY? "We were in a position to win the race and it worked out the last lap to win it, so that's our strategy for Sunday. We've just got to take care of our Ford all day and if we can put ourselves in a position to win, anything can happen if you're in those top five or six cars. That's what we'll be looking forward to on Sunday."
MARCOS AMBROSE – No. 9 DeWalt Ford Fusion (Qualified 24th)
"We were a little disappointed in qualifying trim and we thought we could have been a little better, but it doesn't make a whole lot of difference around this place. It's a quiet day for the drivers. There's not much you can do out there to make any difference, so I'm looking forward to Sunday's race. I've had good runs here in the past and some pretty bad ones too, so we'll just see what it gives us and not get greedy."
GREG BIFFLE – No. 16 3M Ford Fusion (Qualified 17th)
"You just hold it to the floor for two laps. Our team had a lot more encouragement coming here than what it looks like so far, so it's kind of disappointing a little bit, but when you're drafting and in the race it's a lot different. On pure speed it looks like we're off maybe a little bit."
DAVID GILLILAND – No. 34 Taco Bell Ford Fusion (Qualified 39th)
"It was alright. We just worked on all race stuff yesterday and two-car draft stuff, so I feel really good about our Taco Bell Ford Fusion heading into tomorrow. I think it pushed really well and I had really good speed, and it was very comfortable to drive, so those are three things you're gonna need for a good finish tomorrow."
DID YOU DO ANY QUALIFYING STUFF IN PRACTICE YESTERDAY? "Zero. We didn't do one lap of qualifying because it really doesn't matter where you start here. It all comes down to being there at the end when it's time to go."
AJ ALLMENDINGER – No. 43 Best Buy Ford Fusion (Qualified 16th)
You're kind of just out there hanging out, so we'll see where we start.
"It was smooth. That was as fast as I could make the car go. You're kind of just out there hanging out, so we'll see where we start. The Best Buy Ford will be good and now we just have to go and start texting some people in the driver bus lot and get some friends."
HOW MUCH STEERING INPUT DO YOU USE TO STAY SMOOTH HERE? "As little as you can. You're just trying to take everything away that will scrub speed off. There's not a lot of stuff the driver can do to help it, but there's a lot of stuff he can do to hurt it, so it is what it is."
ANDY LALLY – No. 71 Interstate Moving Services Ford Fusion (Qualified 37th)
"I've been really happy with the communication and everything that we've been getting from the Roush side. We've got a new crew chief this weekend who is obviously a really experienced guy. Doug has been great and coming to Talladega with a new car, new crew chief, new everything is tough, but we're thrilled to be in this race. We've got some work to do. Anytime you're racing any track in Cup you know you're going up against some of the best guys in the world and it's always a challenge, so making the race here this weekend is a huge shot in the arm for us.
TRAVIS KVAPIL – No. 38 Long John Silver's Ford Fusion (Qualified 28th)
DID YOU LOSE SOME TIME IN TURN THREE? "I don't know. It's hard to tell. Yesterday was crazy. We were out doing our runs and there was a 400 rpm difference from the frontstretch to the backstretch. You watch the rpm's and you don't really know. It felt like we were hitting the wind over there for some reason, but I'm proud of my guys. Our Front Row Motorsports, Long John Silver's Ford has pretty good speed in it after a disappointing week at Texas. It's good to rebound back. I'm just excited to be in the race tomorrow and my teammate, David, proved in Daytona that anything can happen. So if we can keep our nose clean and we're in the middle of it tomorrow, we've got a chance."

*** Fixed battery drain and crashes issues ***
Magic Gate will automatically open the gate for you when you approach the gate. It is intended for roads/garage gate systems which are opened using phone dial. The application runs in the background and probes your location using cellular network. When getting close to the gate (1 KM) it'll switch to use GPS to get your fine location. When getting to the configured distance, it'll call the gate number for you.
This is convenient for car drivers who needs to dial the gate while driving in order to open it. Note that the application will work only when you're approaching the gate from far-enough distance (~2 KM) since it is not constantly uses the GPS receiver (for longer battery life). You can configure multiple gates and see the distance from each gate at any time. When configuring the gate, you can either be at the gate's location to get your exact fix, or use the map to place the gate on it.
The application is free, No commercials.

Ok after watching episode 520 and seeing how famous brook has gotten and ahem *cough* how many females were crying and fainting for him it makes me think brook is up there with luffy as to "having groupies" so fellow bloggers i have come to five conclusions for these 2 answers: Luffy,Zoro,Sanji,Franky, and Usopp.
Q: Which member do you think could actually get a girl without being a total dumbass
My A: I think zoro because he's just cool although he probably wouldnt be too interested in them since he likes fighting more
Q.: Which member do you think could actually score with nami and robin
My A: Zoro and nami would make a good pair other than sanji their always arguing so why not opposite attract and it would just be funny to see how sanji reacts: *falls on knees and coughs up blood* " after all these years of traveling together i get beat by. . . . . . A MARIMO!!!!!" ---> http://youtu.be/8HxRMHLrAlY?t=2s

Please feel free to call at (+1) 772-646-0597 or request an estimate. We are happy to answer any questions you may have about turbidity curtains.
Silt Conditions & Factors to Consider
Any time you are looking to use one of our silt control curtains, we typically urge customers to take the following factors into consideration prior to choosing their silt curtain style:
- Water Conditions:
- Water Velocity: How fast is the water moving?
- Waves: Are there waves? How high/often do they occur?
- Tides: Are there tides?
- Water Velocity: How fast is the water moving?
- Site Conditions:
- Particles: What type of silt, turbidity or sediment are you trying to contain? Is it contaminated?
- Project: What type of project is this barrier for? How long will the project last?
- Wind: Is there wind? What is the speed and/or direction?
- Particles: What type of silt, turbidity or sediment are you trying to contain? Is it contaminated?
Please feel free to call us at any time at (+1) 772-646-0597 or request an estimate for a floating silt curtian.
Choosing the Right Turbidity Curtain
Regardless of model, the most common floating silt curtain design involves the use of a top flotation, impermeable skirt and bottom ballast chain. When the barrier needs to accommodate waves or currents, a tension cable will be added to the top section of the curtain. This is used to control the spread of materials and is most commonly found on the Type 2 and Type 3 models.
Choosing the right model for your location is dependant on several different factors including project type and duration. In general, turbidity curtains are typically classified in either Contractor or Project/HD models.
Contractor Curtains
Contractor/DOT Curtains are most commonly used for construction, DOT and short term projects. Models include:
- Type 1 Contractor
- Type 1 Economy
- Type 1 DOT
- Type 2 Contractor
- Type 2 DOT
- Type 3 DOT
Project Curtains

To the Editor:
I.B.M.'s new Blue Gene project (''I.B.M. Plans Supercomputer That Works at the Speed of Life,'' Business Day, Dec. 6) highlights the degree to which molecular biology, driven by the genome project, has become an information science in need of a large amount of information processing. It also underscores how many of the major computational applications and challenges in science are increasingly coming from the life sciences rather than from the more traditional quantitative disciplines in the physical sciences.

June 18-Sept. 2
Kohl Children's Museum, 2100 Patriot Blvd., Glenview
(847) 832-6600
Forget finger-painting. When it comes to art, Kohl Children's
Museum is thinking big-as in Marc Chagall big.
The museum's exhibit, Chagall for Children, returns home this
summer, and it brings with it a unique type of art education.
"It's an exhibit that really brings the work of Chagall to a
level that the children can directly interact with," says Sheridan
Turner, president and CEO of the museum. "The paintings are so
easily interpreted for our age group. All of his pictures are very
visually engaging."
The exhibit, created by Kohl in 1996, includes 14 different
exhibit components, each attached to a particular Chagall work.
For instance, for Chagall's "America Windows," kids can help
create their own stained glass window, moving pieces on a backlit
surface. The painting "The Circus" inspires role play: kids don
capes and pretend to be part of a circus, and the image is shown on
a TV screen. And in conjunction with "The Blue House," kids build a
structure with Lincoln Logs.
Plus there are opportunities to arrange flowers, create a
tapestry, animate a painting, and explore symmetry.
While kids might think they're just doing creative projects,
Turner points out that each component incorporates other areas of
learning, including math and science.
"There's a lot of STEM learning going on in this exhibit,
although you might not think it," she says. "It shows a beautiful
marriage of STEM and art and why the arts are so important in STEM
Turner says the exhibit comes at the perfect time, since outdoor
activities, including chalk drawing, are planned. On June 19, Lambs
Farm will bring by some sheep, temporarily colored with Kool-Aid,
an image frequently seen in Chagall's work.
Chagall for Children has traveled to museums throughout North
America, but Turner says children and parents are always eager to
see it return.
"The overall goal," Turner says, "is to get children exposed and
to develop an appreciation for the arts."

Awesome Doctor
After Dr Pittmen diagnosed that I have Type 2 Diabetes he called every morning & every night for 2wks to see what my glucose levels were. I've never had a doctor call me at home ever. He is kind and caring He explains everything. His office staff up front know me by my name & they are professional & friendly. Sometimes the wait in the reception is long but I think it's because he has a very busy practice.

I have been going to Dr. Pittman for years. He is the only doctor I know that knows who I am, knows my mother-in-law and also has her as a patient and a asked about my children whom he use to treat as children. He always explains things to me completely and is very friendly. I have and continue to recommend him to family and friends.

Great Doc!!
I am a firm believer in Dr. Pittman! He is a great doc and and enjoyable person. He does have a busy practice but that is to be expected for a 20+ year practice. He still finds time to listen and diagnose each problem I present. I have been his patient for over 3 years and will remain a patient as long as he continues to practice medicine.

My Doctor
Dr Pittman is very kind and caring doctor. He is very friendly and takes my health very serious. He takes time to talk to me as long as needed. The only negative thing about my whole experience with him, is that he is so attentive that when seeing him, I can expect at least 2 hrs with him.

Significant Problems in Practice
I have seen Dr. Pittman for some time. I believe him to be a very intelligent person and in many respects an excellent doctor. However, he is too busy and there are real problems with his staff, for which he must take responsibility. However, he does not appear willing to do so. In attempting to get a refill for a routine prescription I have taken for years, I had the refill request denied. When I talked with the refill nurse I was told I could not get a refill on my prescription if I was "not coming in for my appointments." I have seen Dr. Pittman regularly every few months, had seen him only two months previously and had lab work relative to the very presciption I was requesting a refill on! I was repeatedly told that I had "no showed" for an appointment that I had in fact cancelled while waiting for the results of some other medical testing I had had done, in line with Dr. Pittman's own request. I myself had called Dr. Pittman's office the day before to see if he wanted me to have some additional bloodwork done. I explained this repeatedly . Yet, I was as much as told that I am a liar, don't know what I am talking about, and am non-compliant. The record clearly shows that that is not the case. A consultation with Dr. Pittman or his nurse would also have resolved the issue. However, this did not happen. I am not willing to go through a fight, be called a liar, and take three days when I need prescription refills. I do have other options. When I spoke with Dr. Pittman directly about this, he acknowledged mistakes had been made and apologized, which I did appreciate. However, in the end he made excuses for the staff and said nothing could be done to correct the situation. He blamed the system and seemed to feel that he is as much a victim of it as anyone. He is the one who is, or should be, in charge of his practice and it is up to him to ensure that his patients are not treated inappropriately and that they are able to get their needed medications. Communication between his staff and Dr. Pittman appears to be a real problem. If his staff do not have the time or training to adequately respond to patients' needs in a courteous and thoughtful manner, something is wrong with the way his practice is structured, and he does have control of that. Perhaps he needs to limit the number of patients he sees, give his staff better training, and instruct them to consult with him. Since this is not going to happen, I regrettably have had to find a new physician, where I do not anticipate such problems.

A Great Doctor
I see Dr. Pittman as a great doctor. I dont have a negative thing to say about him. He has been my doctor for years. He is nice and kind. Its great to have a Doctor who cares. If there is someone who says diffrent they are wrong.

I have been a patient of Dr. Pittman's for over 20 years. I can say without reservation that he is one of the most caring and committed physicians that I have ever had the opportunity of meeting. Dr. Pittman is a good Christian man and serves the community is various ways such as helping at the free clinic, food bank and soup kitchens. He also uses his two week vacation to travel to Uganda to care for the impoverished. Anyone that thinks that he is in business to simply "make money" is sadly mistaken. Again, I give this amazing doctor 4 stars!

"3 Skin, 8 Line. The Lords insist on the Clause (B):
"Because they conceive this Clause not to be of a different Nature from the rest of the Bill; which being designed to provide a more equal Way for the Subject to make his Defence, would not give their Lordships an equal Benefit with the Commons without this Clause, since the Peers have not the Advantage of Challenges, which the Commons now enjoy."
