BBE LED High Mast Light-HM6V in Longhua, Shenzhen, China
As one of major supplier in Shenzhen city, BBELED competed with several other strengthened suppliers and finally defeated others with superior performance and warranty up to 5 years. And we installed hundreds and thousands of LED street lights and high mast lamps in Longhua district. Here I would love to share you some pictures below:
BBELED released three model high mast light, one is 130Watts HM3, another is 250W HM6V/HM6H, the third one is 500Watts HM12, to meet different requirements of situation, different pole height and different lumens. In Longhua high mast projects, mostly we used 250W HM6V.
With a pole height of 15 meters, we put 3pcs of 250W HM6V LED street light on each pole based on careful calculation. After installation, our lighting design team did on-site test and data showed the lighting effect was satisfactory with luminaire efficiency over 0.90 and evenness over 0.6.
BBELED estimates that the new LED high mast light will decrease about 60% energy, which will help offset future increases in energy costs. New lighting also offers a much more welcoming environment for the anticipated influx. To know more about high mast light, welcome to contact us.

Disclaimer: I do not own anything Diablo or Diablo II related.
Author's Note / Introduction: This is something that I have wanted to write for a long time. Basically, this story shall travel through the Diablo II and DII: LOD storyline as seen by two characters. It will focus mainly on that relationship as well as the social impact upon the people of Diablo II in Sanctuary. This is just a prologue. Chapters will cover single chapters within the acts. (IE, Chapter 1 will be 'The Den of Evil' 2 will be "Sister's Bruial Ground" etc.) For now, read, enjoy, and leave a review if you are so inclined!My Opposite; My Exact
She had stopped counting the days about a couple of weeks prior to her sitting up late, again, staring at the bonfire in the center of the Rogue's makeshift encampment. The scent of smoke and embers were accompanied again by the faint smell of blood and death that the eastern winds bore to the camp. It was nothing that frightened her, but as the weeks had gone by, she had noticed this smell growing stronger and the number of Rogue scouts returning to camp became less and less. Unfortunately, to return to her home north, she first had to pass through the lands of the Monastery, which were as she was told unfit to travel to. She could take care of herself, she assured them, but they assured her right back that they could take care of whatever was ravaging their lands. The Rogue are idiots she sighed in her head as the caravan leader, Warriv, began to nod off, back propped up against a wagon's wheel. They didn't know who or what she was, and though part of her wanted to retain her anonymity, most was rearing to head out into the bramble wilderness and fix the problem herself. The only thing holding her back was the news she had eavesdropped on earlier in her stay. It was not hard to miss Kashya, and in one of the first very heated arguments with Akara, the fate of Tristram was told. Tristram, where the final battle was supposed to have ended. Tristram, where the demons were finally put to rest along with one of the greatest evils of all.
It seems they were all wrong.
Stuck in the God-forsaken camp certainly was not helping much, however. She yawned widely, hidden by a hand with graceful fingers. She leaned back against her chest of belongings and pulled some of her fur blankets about her closer. It certainly was getting colder as of late. Home seemed a thousand miles away, but on the same token, she was not sure that home was the best idea either. Someone stepping in front of her tent broke her from her concentration. Her eyes narrowed in the amber light being thrown from the fire, she studied the newcomer. He was male, young at that, and a little too tall for his weight. It was as if he had been stretched through the torso, the look of boys as they trek through the awkward phases toward becoming men. He was not a boy, however, just awkward. She guessed that he must have stood at least six or seven inches above her, but from her vantage she could have been exaggerating. His face was fair, at least the half that she could see. He had a strong jaw and a fine nose, though it looked like it may have been broken at one time or another. He wore a scowl but his eyes reflected concern, great worry, and the flames of the fire. He was covered in furs from head to foot, though as she looked closer she assumed they were all blessed by how they were carefully adorned with painted symbols, beads, and bones. An over-large raven was perched upon his left shoulder, visibly ruffled, and it called a warning as its eyes met hers. The young man's vision snapped to hers, as she lay half-concealed in the darkness of her tent. His eyes, green eyes, looked at her with contemplation, and he frowned as he looked upon the pelt that she had wrapped about her from. Definitely a druid. She thought bitterly as he looked at her with accusatory eyes. He pulled the hood from his head to reveal dark auburn hair, and quite a length of it, that was tied back at the nape of his neck. She shifted as he still looked down upon her; her fingers itched toward the dagger, safe in its sheath strapped around her thigh.
"Do you have something to say, or are you simply going to stare at me? I would like to get some sleep at some point tonight, and I cannot vary well do it with eyes upon me." She spat. The look on his face simply changed to that of marginal amusement before turning his back on her and moving toward the left side of Warriv's wagon. Though he was almost out of her view, she saw and heard a tent being put up before he settled his tall, lanky form within. The raven perched itself on one of the stakes and went to sleep. She assumed that its master had also, but as she shut her eyes, rest did not come easy. She felt him still awake and observing her somehow, and to an assassin, being watched is something that does not occur often. She finally drifted off into an uneasy sleep, knowing that a set of green eyes fifteen feet away were still reflecting the flames of the bonfire, and perhaps the silhouette of her tent.
The next morning she awoke with a start as she heard yelling coming from the entrance to the encampment. She tossed the pelts aside with ease, and though groggy, she leaped up with her dagger at the ready, unsure of what she may meet. There was no immediate threat to the encampment, but two Rogues were hurrying into camp with a third held between them. She was bleeding profusely from a couple of head wounds and several superficial cuts and grazes to the rest of her body. The folk of the camp gathered curiously around Akara's tent as she began to tend to the poor girls wounds. Kashya was visibly irritated.
"Report!" She barked at the two untouched scouts.
"The demons, they are upon us!" One replied nervously.
"What?" Kashya asked in disbelief.
"They have burrowed out a stronghold underground, seemingly overnight! They are nary more than a mile outside of camp, and slowly they have been spreading closer." One of the scouts clarified.
"What kind of beasts are we speaking of here? Like the others?"
"No, not as terrible yet." One replied.
"But still! Spike fiends, zombies, fallens! All roaming the land right outside of here! Who knows what else is below in that burrow!" The other rogue cried angrily.
"Silence!" Akara's sudden words brought a hush to the murmur that was rippling to what was left of her people, "Obviously, something must be done. For now, I will tend to this one. Kashya, I want you to strengthen the defense outside of our encampment. There are travelers and those with great strength among us as I speak. I want any of those who feel that they are strong enough to vanquish this evil to find me tonight, here. Surely, someone here can undertake the horrors outside of our stronghold. Now be gone, and Heaven help us, someone will be strong enough to aid us." The tired folk slowly wandered away from Akara, allowing her words to sink in to their minds.
"Dierdre." An arm clasped around her hand. She jumped and turned to her side to see Warriv looking at her dagger nervously.
"Do not do that!" She snapped, annoyed, "Do you understand what I can do with this little thing?"
"I am sorry, forgive me," the older man looked amused, "I merely wished to speak with you." Dierdre sighed and put her dagger back into its sheath. She felt eyes upon her once more, and raised her gaze to meet that of the stranger's from the night before. An unpleasant shiver shot down her back.
"Surely," she tore her gaze from the young man and back to Warriv, "let us speak by the fire." They retreated into the heart of the camp, she knowing that the young druid was following as well. He sat on the seat of one of his wagons while she patted one of the oxen on the top of its head, the beast penned safely. She leaned her hip against the fence and looked up at Warriv, aware that the newcomer was settling back down in front of his tent, the raven looking at her with a cocked head.
"This certainly changes things." Warriv began, sounding grim.
"Were you not expecting it?"
"Well, yes, I was, but I now am beginning to share your fear that the Rogue are not enough to battle this."
"So, what are you saying?"
"Are you going to visit Akara tonight?"
"Do you mean am I going to offer myself up to the Rogue tonight?"
"Favors may not be in your nature, Dierdre, but you've been growing quite restless in this camp," he chuckled, "and do not think that I am overstepping my bounds, mi'lady, because although you have only been here a short time, your nature is quite obvious to any who would take two seconds to speak with you. Gheed is downright frightened of you, in fact."
"As he should be, weasel." She smirked as Warriv began to laugh. The green-eyed stranger was eavesdropping, and she was tempted to shout something foul in his direction, but for some reason unbeknownst to herself, she decided to let him listen.
"But Dierdre, will you? Will you fight for the Rouge? As you have told me on more than one occasion, you are prepared to."
"Truth be told, Warriv, I am quite tempted," she sighed, looking over at the gentle beasts penned next to her, "I'm ready to move on from here anyway."
"Then blessed be you," he sighed, looking tired, "something needs to go well for a change, and perhaps you will be able to go home finally."
"Something tells me that if I get involved, I may never see home again." Her smile was something that concerned Warriv.
"Dierdre…" his voice trailed off in a fatherly tone.
"Remember what any preacher would say," she smiled at him, "'Death is only the beginning', and if God has a path set out for everyone, I will be fulfilling it. Besides, we all just try to delay the inevitable, though some tend to hasten it." She grinned in a coy way and he laughed knowingly. Warriv had been one in camp that truly tried to make Dierdre feel welcome from the day she stepped into it. She felt no harm in telling him who, and what, she was. He, in turn, regarded her with much respect.
"Then God shall be proud of His children this day."
"So, you'll be helping?"
"I think I may, perhaps after I talk Charsi into mending my armor and blades."
"You know she will, such a kind girl she is."
"Will you go East again, Warriv, if this all passes?"
"There would be no need for me to stay, and the wagons are laden for trade," He smiled, "Besides, the Rogue will need resources from the East in order to rebuild here, if we do not get wiped off the face of this world first."
"I doubt we will, Warriv, now, off to Charsi." Dierdre smiled at her friend before returning to her small tent. She opened her chest and removed some studded leather, a belt, heavy boots, and a helm, all nicked and rather worse for wear. She pulled a bundle from the bottom and carefully unwrapped it to reveal two wrist blades, shining and sharp, but also nicked and tarnished. She had not used any of her gear since the day she arrived in the Rogue Encampment. She pulled a bag of gold from the bottom as well and hefted her gear over her shoulder, ready to approach the blacksmith. She looked back for a moment and saw the green-eyed stranger whose gaze was riveted to the wrist blades that she held so lovingly in her right hand. For a moment she thought fear was upon his eyes, but at the same time there was a great disgust. She swallowed her angry comment and turned on her heel, marching deliberately to Charsi's forge.
Charsi worked fast with brilliant skill. Although she lacked her magical smithing hammer, Dierdre's equipment had never looked so good. As she donned the armor and tied her wrist blades at her side, there was not a set of eyes in the encampment that could mistake what she was. It was probably more than a little unsettling to realize that an assassin had been living in the encampment undetected for so long. Her pale skin showed beneath the dark sepia tone of the leather. A metal hairpin, one of the sole remembrances from home, held her long black brown hair securely and out of harm's way. She turned her honey-brown eyes to Akara's tent, noticing the setting sun. It was now or never, that she knew, and with purpose she strode to the Healer's tent.
As she approached, she was surprised to see the lanky druid sitting quietly, eyes closed, in front of Akara's tent. She blinked quickly before frowning and standing nearby. He opened his eyes slowly and eyed her. Before any words could be exchanged, Akara emerged from her tent. Her face drooped slightly at the turnout of two, but she sighed hopefully and looked at them both.
"I am glad to see that the kindness of strangers falls upon the Sisterhood, but I am also sad to see that there are so few." She nodded as if steeling herself, "Your name?" She asked as she looked at the young man. He stood swiftly, the raven beating its wings for balance.
"Kellen Adair, mi'lady." His voice proved his age, deep yet airy. He seemed confident, "I am a Druid of the Northwestern realms."
"That much is obvious, friend." Akara smiled, "Do you have any experience?"
"In the fight, do you have experience in the fight?"
"Well, no, none of yet, but I am trained and prepared." He answered honestly. Dierdre held back a snort. He was nothing but a pup, as druids go.
"Training is fine, but experience is what keeps one alive," Akara seemed to have read her mind, "and what of you?" She turned her attention on Dierdre.
"Dierdre Cam, Assassin of the Northeastern Guild."
"You have been in our camp for quite some time, I am guessing you cannot reach your homeland?"
"No, the way is through the Monastery."
"Are you experienced?"
"Yes, mi'lady."
"What have you done?"
"Too much, mi'lady." She answered truthfully. Akara sized her up.
"You are young, I am sure young enough to have not learned everything."
"Not by a long shot, but I know how to fight, and I have."
"Then perhaps you can train this one." She said, referring to Kellen. The prospect annoyed her before even truly sinking in. Playing nanny to an inexperienced Druid with a superiority complex? How fun.
"I will learn quickly." He spoke up suddenly, looking at Dierdre with a quiet thirst for knowledge. It took her back, so much so that all she could do in response was nod.
"Tomorrow I wish for you to set out into the Blood Moor and vanquish the evil that is approaching our encampment. Our services, as usual, will be at your disposal. Some of the land has changed, so our maps may not be as reliable, I suggest you change them as you go. For now, go and sleep knowing that the Rogue is ever grateful for your help."
So she slept, but yet again, sleep was restless. She awoke some time after midnight and sat up, pulling the pelts off of her and stepping out of her tent, adjusting the tunic she wore. Unabashed of her bare legs, she lifted a water skin from the side of her tent and took a long drink. The ruffling of feathers woke her up further. She looked over to Kellen's tent to see him rip his eyes away from her. The raven simply smoothed its feathers and fell back to sleep. The druid was getting on her nerves, but she would have to put up with him.
"Why aren't you sleeping?" She asked, "Tomorrow is going to be hard, downright dangerous for you."
"And why aren't you?" He asked, looking into the fire.
"I think it is because of some green-eyed druid who keeps staring at my tent while I try to." The young man gained slight color for a moment, but did not move his eyes from the flames.
"I am nervous to be around you."
"Finally, some honest answers," she smirked, "I don't blame you."
"Aren't you insulted?" He looked up at her.
"Why should I be?" She took another large drink, "It is not like my people should be trusted, anyway."
"You are… honest."
"Of course I am. Were you expecting someone completely devoid of morals?"
"To my people, Assassins are."
"Well, perhaps you should not listen to everything they tell you."
"'Tis all I know."
"Then you have obviously not stepped out of your lands before, have you?" Her eyes narrowed slightly.
"No." His reply came softly after a moment.
"Well, then you're just going to have to trust me. I wont let you die."
"How can I be sure of that?"
"Who else is going to protect you?" She snapped. He looked at his hands before bravely back at her.
"I will protect myself."
"Eventually. For now, you need to sleep." He looked at her skeptically, "Okay fine, tell me this pup, what reason would I have for killing you? Your blessed firs? Your loud-mouthed crow? Your tent which is not in much better shape than my own? I do not kill for nothing, Druid. Give me more credit than what your elders have planted in your head."
"Do…" he took a breath of courage, "do not be angry with me, please."
"I am not, but you have to understand what your words say to me."
"I will watch my tongue."
"I'm sure you will, but I could care less if you treat me like dirt," she sighed, "right now, you and I both need sleep. As soon as you do, maybe I can finally get some rest." She sighed and turned her back on him sharply and re-entered her small tent. She was rewarded a moment later by hearing him shuffle into his own and settle down. For the first time since he came to camp, Dierdre finally got a good night's sleep.
They awoke the next day before dawn broke. Warriv rose with them, and while they dressed and geared up, he made them breakfast which they ate gratefully. Dierdre pulled her hair back and fastened it, the shorter locks falling arrantly in her face. Her armor restored and her wrist blades gleaming, she finally felt the thrill of the hunt flow through her again. Her charge, however, looked to be a little less confident. Kellen, although lean, was quite a bit stronger than she. Charsi outfitted him in ring mail and gave him a large shield and a scimitar to wield. He looked a little lost as he stared at his feet. She smacked him on the arm with the blunt of her blade and nodded ahead; the Rogues were awaiting them in order to send them off.
Akara gave them the most recent maps that she could offer, and Kashya did her best to brief them on the weaknesses of the possible creatures they would be facing. And finally, before reality could truly sink in, they were crossing the bridge into the Blood Moor, wondering what truly awaited them on the other side, with distinctly different attitudes toward their fate.

Stella would have been six years old today, April 18th 2015.
There are some "days" in this journey of grief that are harder than others. Her birthday is a doozy. Because it is a "date". Something we can use to measure how long it's been since she lived and died. It's a time that we remember the excitement of awaiting our first born child. The moment I got to call Aimee at work and tell her I was in labour. The moment that Stella was born with a group of 10 enthusiastic adults in the room all there to witness the incredible moment that Aimee shouted, "It's a girl!" and the room erupted with cheers and tears of JOY. Stella Joy.
It's also a day to reflect on how different life turned out from what we expected that first day of her life. We pictured the first day of kindergarten, soccer matches, high school graduation, laughter and a lifetime of getting to know our little red-headed miracle.
But life had something else in store for us.
Sometimes when I think about what we were robbed of, I get so angry. Incredibly angry. Because the world not only took our daughter away, it took away our blissful ignorance of the terrible things that can happen. It took away our dreams of the future. It took away our plans and hopes. It robbed us of beautiful friendships that didn't survive after our daughter died. It robbed us of the life we planned for ourselves. It's very easy to get sucked in to a vortex of anger and bitterness. It's very easy to fee as though life is unfair and you have been so deeply wronged that you have the right to be angry all the time.
The anger comes easily to me. And when I feel it bubbling up, I work hard to remember all the gifts and beauty that Stella's life and death gave me.
I have to consciously remind myself of the new friendships that have grown from her cancer and death. I have to remind myself that Aimee and I have become better parents, better daughters, better people because of the lessons she taught us. I have to look at Sam and Hugo and allow their laughter and love of life to wash over me and cleanse the anger from my soul. I have to look in the mirror and think about how brave Aimee and I are. How proud I am of what we have accomplished and the people we have become. I have to say out loud, "Stella would be proud of you".
Some days I can cope better than others. I find myself trying to push memories aside as a coping mechanism. I don't flip through photo albums of Stella. I don't keep her little shoes where I can see them, but bury them deep inside my closet. I never read the old entries from the blog. I try to live in the present all the time. To enjoy where I am and what I'm doing and who I'm with. I try not to think of the "what if's" and get envious of Stella's thriving friends who are doing all the things that she should have had the chance to do. I try not to stare at little girls in the mall and feel jealous.
Lately though, I've been finding that even when I try to push things aside, the memories find me. If I go up to the attic to put away the boys winter clothes, I see all the bins that hold Stella's things. Her clothing, her favourite dolls, art and then the guest books from her funeral. Yesterday I needed to thin out the children's books that drip off of our shelves and I kept finding books I remembered reading to Stella. I couldn't bring myself to give them away, so I just shoved them to the back of the shelf. We still keep Stella's baby bottles on the top shelf of our kitchen cupboards. We need the space they occupy for other things, but neither Aimee nor I can bring ourselves to throw them out. And even almost three years after Stella has died, Aimee and I sleep with a space between us. The space that was occupied by Stella throughout her illness. The exact space that she took her last breath. We never talk about it, but neither of us touches that gap between us. Her "Pink Kitty" stuffed animal sits there day and night. Almost like a placeholder, waiting for her to come back and snuggle in. A hole in the bed, mirroring the holes in our hearts. A physical space that acts as a constant reminder of the little girl we loved and lost.
Stella fast asleep on Pink Kitty, at age 1:
In some ways, Aimee and I live in a world now where Stella isn't on the hearts and minds of many of the people we see. Aimee's work has seen many staffing changes with old staff leaving and new staff coming in. Staff that know nothing of Stella or her journey. I've begun a new career and there is no one at my place of work that met Stella or read the blog, or has any idea about the long days and nights we spent caring for her. Old friends have drifted off, new friends have come in. Of course you tell people about her, but it isn't the same as those people who were with us from the beginning. Those that cared and watched and waited and grieved right along with us. It's hard to go into work on "those" days (for example, I'll be working on Stella's birthday), and act as if everything is normal when you're heart feels like it's been ripped right out of your chest. I don't have the right words to explain to people who weren't here what it is like to wake up on your dead child's birthday and not have her there to hug and sing Happy Birthday to, and tell funny stories about the day she was born.
For Stella's birthday this year, I will be running a funeral. A funeral for a baby that didn't get a chance to live past its parents imagination and hearts. I will push aside my own grief and stand with them as they mourn the future that they were robbed of because of "bad luck" or "circumstances". I won't tell them anything about Stella. They will have no idea that my heart is also broken. They won't know that when I look into their eyes and tell them, "I'm so sorry for your loss," that I'm not just saying the words, I'm actually sorry because I can feel the same sharp pangs in my chest that they can. People at work will wish me a Happy Birthday, and I will smile and say thank-you. They won't think to wish Stella a happy birthday too, because even though they may know we shared the same birthday, it won't occur to them to say anything. After I run the funeral and help another family bury their baby, I will head to Chuck E Cheese with my family. In a place of chaos, noise and screaming children we will both celebrate and mourn the little girl who couldn't be at her own birthday party. There will be a balloon on the table with her name and age. There will be family. There will be cold pizza and warm pop. There will be cake. But Stella will be missing.
Everyday Stella is missing.
I worked a funeral two weeks ago for another young girl who cancer stole away from the world. Her mother ended the Eulogy by recalling a conversation between a child and it's mother:
"Mama…why did she have to die? Why her? She was the most beautiful, the most perfect, the most incredible person".
"Yes, she was. Le me ask you… when you choose a flower from the garden, which one do you choose? Isn't it always the most beautiful, the most perfect, the most incredible?"
She sure was.
Happy Birthday baby girl.
Stella JOY (age 2):
The boys eat ice cream "just because" in honour of their sister:
Gracie, Sam and Hugo hunt for Easter eggs:
Happy Birthday Stella!

Eva Longoria wants to feel in control
Eva Longoria wants to "control her destiny".
The 'Desperate Housewives' star is desperate to do more directing and producing so she can see her "stories reflected" on people's screens.
She told USA TODAY's Hispanic Living magazine: "My goal has always been to direct and produce. I want to see my stories reflected on the big and small screens. I want more control over my destiny in this industry.
"Economic mobility is one way to empower Latinas. Latinas are the CEOs of the household finances and health decisions. I want to give women the tools to make sure they become engines for good."
Meanwhile, the 41-year-old actress previously revealed she'd love to be the "female George Clooney".
She said: "I want to be the female George Clooney. He directs, produces and stars. I want to be in charge of the final product.
"Everyone goes, 'Oh, she's an actor-turned-director,' and I'm like, 'No, I was always a director and a producer who happened to become an actor.'"
And Eva admits she sees acting as a "means to an end".
She added: "I've always been business-minded. I worked in corporate America before becoming an actress and knew that acting wasn't the end but a means to an end.
"It gave me the platform and the exposure I needed to do my philanthropic work. It also gave me the financial security to focus on my other businesses, start new businesses, and even help other people start businesses."

As a teacher,
I wouldn't want a gun. It is a false sense of security, and the possibility of a horrible tragedy are infinite.
As has been pointed out, there were armed guards at Columbine. They tried but weren't able to stop it. In addition, some of the shooters are wearing body armor. Good luck with that head shot.
Unless you are really going to arm somebody, a person bent on causing destruction armed with what a lot of the shooters have carried, you will be outgunned.
I wish I had a good answer. There are armed guards in schools, but they are there for helping deal with a lot of situations that don't involve shooting everything in sight. They would be hard pressed to handle a homicidal maniac armed with a Bushmaster.
The teachers who are getting training are getting a one time lesson. They might react better and faster with a gun. They also might freeze or shoot anything that moves. You have now increased the possibility of people getting shot by a lot.

1. No one knows how they would react in a life threatening situation.
No one knows what they would do if a gun was pointed at them until it happens.
If one carries a gun, they have to be able to process the thought of taking another life even when their own is being threatened.
I would think packing a gun would also make you a target in a situation. If the shooter knows the teacher has a gun, they will shoot them first.

2. I went to a local gun shop
with a friend who believes he has to carry a gun for "self-defense". (more on that later)
but while he was busy with one clerk/owner, I talked to another and the conversation was actually refreshing.
I asked about "self-defense" importance and he said that our area Wisconsin isn't exactly a high risk area and the need to arm yourself every time you leave the house isn't truly necessary. He asked me if I noticed that neither he nor any of the other employees were armed in the store...they weren't...he said that if somebody came in to rob the place, the first thing they would do would be to "take out" the threats...anybody carrying a gun...hence they didn't want to make themselves targets.
I'm thinking that on school property, any maniac with a desire to commit mayhem would look for the armed persons first.....but on the other hand...the people doing these shootings at schools are not RATIONAL people anyway. We have two school resource officers on duty in our schools: one at the high school and one at the Jr. High...would they be out-gunned in an emergency? Would they be able to stop a massacre? I don't know but I would rather see school resource officers carrying a gun than the teachers.

6. Here is a article that has a
Different perspective.
Utah Teachers Flock to Gun Training
The perception of schools as sanctuaries from violence has been "blown up" by recent events and some believe it's time for educators to literally take the situation into their own hands and carry guns.
"We've had this unwritten code, even among criminals, that schools are off limits. Those are our kids. You don't mess with that," Utah Shooting Sports Council (USSC) Chairman Clark Aposhian told ABCNews.com today.
"That perception has been blown away now," he said. "It's been shattered and if there's one thing that parents across the country are united on, it's that they are committed to and serious about protecting their kids."
Aposhian spoke shortly before opening a weapons training class for teachers and school employees that drew more than 200 Utah educators organized by the USSC, a leading gun lobby group that believes that teachers should be able to fight back when faced with an armed intruder.

12. Did you read what I wrote in the OP?
Unless those teachers really know what they are doing, it could turn into a hot mess.
A maniac with true homicidal intent is a different breed. It isn't easy to shoot someone, much less shoot them effectively. A shot sounds. Here come the teachers. Some may meet the person head on and some may barricade their classes and use it as a last resort.
They are all scared shitless and have never been near this type of trouble. They don't train or shoot at gun ranges like police officers. If the shooter has a Bushmaster or something similar, they are outgunned.
Having a lot of guns around with people who are nervous about it isn't a good scenario. Then there are the little darlings. Some of those students will push about the guns and others will try to figure out where they are and steal them.
Arming teachers is not any type of guarantee of really stopping anything. It will give them a sense of security that isn't real.

9. The answer to a lone nut with a gun is not more people with guns.
Like you I don't know the answer. I do however realize that more people with guns entangled in a gun fight is not it.
If the answer was a gun fight, every hostage situation would begin with teams storming the building with guns a blazin'. That's not how it's done though, things are always started with negotiations. The hostile shootout is always the LAST resort.

10. Why arming teachers is insane
OK, so we arm teachers. Lets put a guard at each school. These people mental but they know what they're doing. So instead of the school itself they board one or two of the buses dropping off the kids. So then what ? Arm the school bus drivers ? Then the mall security guards ? Good luck with that, or the theaters ? Pretty soon every where you go there's someone armed who is on high alert in case something happens. Armed presence at schools is not the answer.
I'm not sure what I'm about to say is true, but back in the 1950's and 1960's when I was disciplined for what I did wrong at home and school, I learned right from wrong quickly. And I don't remember this stuff happening back then except in Vietnam when some guy freaked out. Now they have time out for kids ?
I take the train to NY every few months. At the last stop I wonder, who's going to stop someone from boarding and blowing us all away ? So where does it end ?
Perhaps if we just tried, or took a look at other countries and what they did to stop or lower their crime and mass killings, maybe we'd learn something ? No, not us, we're the USA, we know everything and we're better at knowing it.

For everyone who's all het up about increasing armed security in public places like schools: Remember the shooter at the Empire State Building a few months back? The police showed up to protect the public and ended in a shoot-out with a guy. Nine bystanders were wounded -- all at the hands of the police. And these cops weren't a bunch of Barney Fifes, either. They were highly-trained NYC police officers. Now replace those officers, who are highly-trained, well-practiced, and mentally prepared, with a bunch of armed civilians. What could *possibly* go wrong ? o.O

22. Two were killed and 8 wounded
Therein lies the problem with armed citizens.
A state police academy did a study with college students, many who were already trained in firearms. After training they were out in a real life scenario in a classroom. Each failed to shoot the gunman entering the class and they were sot themselves. then they threw in a twist, had another student who was in on it with the intruder sitting among them start firing. Total chaos.
Imagine the carnage in a crowed theater if multiple gunmen came from front and rear ?
There's too many dimensions to this problem. Too many guns, not enough evaluation for registry and a mental illness, societal problem.

I have tried to explain to people (who have no idea what I do) that in a classroom, I am the only person. My district had lockdown drills per state law. We just had one on Nov. 27th. It went well. I could not imagine leaving my students to "protect" them or better yet, shooting someone in front of an 8 year old. They know I would give my life to protect them and I would, yet getting my gun to kill someone is a different story. I really am not paid enough to be everything for students and a security guard too. I never complain about my salary.

The Columbine shooters were outside the school shooting at students as they exited the building. In retrospect, they would have been much safer inside.
We protect airplanes with ARMED air marshalls.
We protect banks with ARMED guards.
We protect armored cars with ARMED guards.
We protect the President with ARMED secret service agents.

19. Bad comparison. When was the last time you saw an armed guard at a bank?
There haven't been any for many years, as it was found that guns lead to shooting and then people die. Armed guards greatly increase the chances of accidents, unintended deaths, and generally increase the level of violence. Much like the brutal police response to drug smuggling on the US border led to something of an arms race there, and gradually raised the level of violence to a fever pitch - both against the police and between the smuggling operations themselves.
I'd agree to some extent - there aren't really any good comparisons. I know what used to be necessary for the security services in banks, however, which was regular gun training, safety certification and regular practice on the firing range. Still there was more accidents and problems as there was any good done. I know a lot of teachers here...and you really can't ask them to act as armed security guards on top of their existing job, which is demanding enough, and expect any good result.

25. I have never seen an armed air marshall on a plane.
I haven't seen an armed guard at a bank since I was a kid in the 70s.
The President of the United States receives death threats every single day; no one begrudges him armed guards. But WE are not the president. Do I get my own armed guard every time I leave the house? No I don't. I don't need one, because I'm not that important.
The solution to gun violence is not "more guns." Never was, never will be. Other countries do just fine with fewer guns.

23. The advocates for arming teachers miss several key realities.
First, effective use of a gun under the situation that a teacher would have to use a gun under in a school takes hours upon hours of both stationary and moving target shooting practice. A teacher would need spend all of his or her working time at shooting ranges to become even remotely competent to take down a moving target under an intensely stressful situation, with may be many panicked kids running around.
Second, the advocates confuse a common criminal with a psychopath. A teacher may be able to stop a common criminal, may be if that teacher is highly proficient in the use of a gun under the conditions that I listed in the first instance above. An armed teacher will not stop a psychopath. The shooters at Columbine, Aurora, Minnesota, Sandy Hook were very smart, but highly deranged individuals - they had prepared and dressed for combat with body armor and would have been able to take out many armed teachers and even cops before finishing their evil work and killing themselves. If psychopaths know teachers or cops are packing in a school, they will change their tactics, with the result being even more people getting killed - instead of going in with body armor and guns, they will use explosives and gaseous poisons that can be easily produced from common household chemicals.
Third, if a deranged killer is even allowed to get within bombing distance of a school, many kids and teachers are going to die before the episode ends. The solution is to harden schools against forced entry into school buildings and against bomb damage - this can be done without making schools look like fortresses and in many cases, will make the school buildings and grounds look more elegant.
The NRA is just interested in protecting it's self dedicated image a a protector of a Second Amendment that it completely mis-interprets, the organization is not interested in the decisions and sustained effort that will be needed to make schools and other public places safer.

put an armed guard in each school bus? What about friday night football games, we will have to have guards at the stadium and guards in all the busses on overtime? Our schools have tax levees voted down year after year as it is, they are cutting teachers, screw them out of their pensions. How the hell we going to get the money to pay to give teachers weopons training or pay for armed guards? We have school districts locally that have filed bankrupcy and still can't get a tax levy passed.

30. Armed guards and/or teachers is a distraction.
It is a "shiny object" to occupy people so real dialog will not take place. IMO.

31. If every school was an impregnable fortress ...
... the deranged killer could wait for a school bus driver to open his door for the last kids on his run, shoot the driver, then kill all the children trapped on the bus.
What we need is a society that produces fewer deranged killers and makes it harder for them to obtain guns.

32. How many school massacres are there, anyway?
Yes they get much media, but this is a very rare event. There are many thousands of schools, and very few homicidal maniacs.
Arming teachers for something that will never happen is dumb.
And in those rare instances, there's no guarantee the teacher will prevail. And those teachers who are not Dirty Harry will nevertheless be regarded as primary targets.
As a teacher, I have taught students that made things appear in places they could not have been. I wouldn't want to guard a gun against them. I have also had students with violent criminal records.
By the way, I own a gun. I think bringing it in to a classroom is crazy.

33. I barely trust myself with the stapler.
Having a loaded weapon in the schoolroom in the US?? It would totally dominate the tone of the learning environment. School attacks are terrifying, but we should be addressing the root of the problem, which is that our social system is insane and makes people snap.
More guns, especially in schools, are not the answer. It tears my guts out that we are even having this conversation as serious discourse in the US, when anyone who brings up socialism as a way to bring more social harmony is treated like a fucking leper.
I'm a teacher and I will never have a gun in my classroom.

Quality in online education, in particular MOOCs might be defined differently from those quality in classroom education, with a face-to-face teaching environment. What is quality of MOOC from the perspective of educators, learners, and employers?
Ivon Prefontaine, PhD's curator insight, May 28, 2013 6:56 PM
Quality might look different but quality still has to meet a high standard. What are we doing to ensure that?

What causes aching, burning, and numbness from the balls of the feet into the toes? I have been having this 24/7 and it is a very, very severe pain. Thanks for any advice.READ MORE
Pain and numbness in the ball of foot?
Particularly check out something called 'metatarsalgia' and 'Morton's Neuroma'; both cause forefront pain. Metatarsalgia occurs when the bones of the toes press together inflaming the nerve between them.
Notice as well the advice regarding shoes; if you look up and down the foot problems section you'll see alot of advice about wearing wide, comfortable shoes. Women, in particular, often have foot problems because they wear shoes that are poorly designed ergonomically to say the least.
There are a few possibilities. You really need to see a doctor to find out for sure what is causing your foot pain. You might start with your family doctor or try a podiatrist or orthopaedic specialist.
Until you can get in to see a doctor, here are a couple of suggestions that might help you narrow down the possibilities:
• In the article Introduction to Foot Pain, there is a chart that describes different types of foot problems. Look under both "Toe Pain" and "Front-of-the-Foot Pain."
• Try using our Symptom Checker. It does a pretty good job of covering foot problems.

Garlicky (Or Not) Chard and White Beans With Caramelized Onions
Recipe by Laurie150
Caramelized onions are rich and flavourful, then stirred with white beans, letting the flavours meld. Garlic is sauteed with chard, then it is all tossed together. If you are making a few dishes, this is a great one to add because as it sits at room temperature, the flavours come together more and more, and it tastes great warm, hot, or cold.
Top Review by PioneerValleyGirl
Tasty vegetable dish. I had spinach on hand, so I substituted that for the chard, and kept the garlic fairly low to let the sweetness of the onions come through (though I'm a garlic lover, so I may bump it up in future versions). I used dried Great Northern beans, and was happy with them. I also had the leftovers with a bit of olive oil and Parmesan on pasta, which I think I liked even better than the first time.
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 3 large yellow onions, sliced
- 2 (15 ounce) cans white beans, drained and rinsed (I like canellini beans and butter beans, but have also used navy beans and chickpeas)
- 2 bunches swiss chard, rinsed well and chopped (stalks in 1/2-inch pieces and leaves in ribbons)
- 4 -6 garlic cloves
- salt
- fresh ground pepper
Directions See How It's Made
- 1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large saucepan, and cook onions on medium-high heat, until caramelized. This can take a couple hours if you have the time. You can sprinkle a bit of sugar or brown sugar on the onions to speed up the process. Here is a great resource for how to do the onions: http://allrecipes.com/HowTo/Caramelizing-Onions-Step-by-Step/Detail.aspx.
- 2. Once onions are caramelized, or to your liking, stir in the white beans. Let cook on low for about 5 minutes, stirring to coat beans with onions. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- 3. In a large saucepan, heat remaining oil over medium heat. Add garlic (as much as you like) and stir for about 30 to 45 seconds, until fragrant. Add chard, and cook until wilted and stalks are soft, about 5 minutes.
- 4. Add beans into chard mixture and stir to combine all ingredients together. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately if you choose, but I like to let it rest about 10 minutes, or cover it for a bit if I am still preparing other dishes.

Investment choices are fundamental to your goals. The choices you make determine where your hard earned money has to be invested. The results are reaped after a period of time; when the investment has procured the desired returns. When you hear the term investment choices you are bound to think Mutual Funds, Debt investments, Gold Property, Fixed income instruments are the various choices you have. You are correct in thinking these are the choices you have. However, it maybe erroneous to think that these are the only choices you have. The fundamental choice you are making when you are picking an investment instrument is assessing your investing needs and matching the same with your investment appetite. An investor who wishes to be personally involved in the process of investing will be in tune with his investing needs and the extent to which he is willing to take risks to reach the investing goals. To understand the investment choices we first need to understand the investment appetites. In this article we will broadly cover the choices but shall focus on Choices that you can make in Mutual Funds investments.
When you are ordering pizza online you are presented with an array of choices between vegetarian and non vegetarian main course, the side dish, the beverages you want and finally the total amount is presented. You change any one of the components in your selection the ultimate amount is affected. Creating a portfolio based on your investment appetite is a similar process. As an investor you have to understand the extent of risk you are willing to take and an assessment of how will you deal with bad losses, if there is any. A realistic assessment of returns your portfolio could possibly generate and whether it is in sync with your expectations. At last liquidity, where you decide for how long you are willing to lock away your money and whether it will be a beneficial move for your ultimate goals. An eclectic mix of these three elements constitutes your investment appetite. The decisions you make on the basis of these aspects ultimately determine your portfolio returns. Even if you change one aspect of any of these investments the ultimate return is altered. Is it not like ordering pizza online?
Risk predominantly has a negative connotation. Investors have a tendency to avoid products which have the tag of being risky. Risk is associated with loss. Hence, a risky product is the one where you stand to lose much more than you gain. These are the usual views of risk, one of loss and avoidance. So after such a negative picture has been painted the question is how much risk should an investor take?
Risk could also be viewed in a different light where risk is inseparable from performance. In some cases taking a risk is necessary to gain the returns. The extent of risk as an investor you are willing to take depends on your financial status and psychological comfort with the prospect of uncertainty and incurring short term losses for long term gains. The risk is often measured in relative terms through benchmarks. The riskier an investment scheme is supposed to be, it is also expected to surpass the category benchmark substantially. The historical returns of a risky scheme are where the investor draws comfort from while investing in present. Through the investing world one aspect is always emphasized on calculated risk in the present always pays off in the future. However, to be able to take such risks one has to overlook minor short term losses or volatility in the market. Risk could be as less as zero like the fixed income instruments such as fixed deposits and Public Provident Funds where there is guaranteed returns at negligible risk. However, the downfall occurs in terms of inflation adjusted returns. The returns are not enough to outdo the inflation or the rate of return is equal to that of the rate of rising inflation. Equity investing is associated with a moderate to very high degree risk. However, they provide inflation adjusted returns. There could be short term losses but certain equity classes have generated long term returns which are far superior to other asset classes like, Gold, Property, Fixed income products etc. Let us see how equity Mutual funds in different categories have often generated returns beating the inflation.
As an investor while you are making various investment choices your personal risk appetite plays an important role in ascertaining the asset classes you invest in. The choice is not just about specific funds but also are you exposing your funds to enough risk to generate the returns because the higher the risk, the tendency to generate returns is higher as the investors also have to be compensated for being able to take a certain amount of risk.
Returns and risk is intertwined. It is often see the higher the risk an investor takes, they reap better returns. The question you need to ask while investing is, how much return is enough and depending on that you expose your portfolio to risk. Returns are also determined by time factor. The period of investment determines the compounding effect on a certain investment. So an investment of
र 2000 per month for the next forty years invested through Systematic Investment Planning (SIP) is going to fetch you higher returns than र 30,000 per month invested for only five years. Returns are often not determined by the amount you invest. Rather, the time period for which you invest and instrument in which it is invested.
The returns that you expect your portfolio to generate should ideally be aligned to your financial goals and the time period of their fulfillment. The risk and returns and the time period all have to align for the fulfillment of a goal. For example, if you are aged 35 presently, you have a period of 25 years to invest for retirement. Since you have a long time period by your side you can take high risk as short term losses may turn into long term gains. However, if you are in need of a corpus in the next three to five years then you need to invest in an instrument which has historic records of generating substantiate returns within a time period of three to five years. Equity Linked Savings Scheme are a good example where a lock in period of three years exist and usually generates inflation adjusted returns within a period of three to five years.
Liquidity is simply ascertaining how easily you wish to access your money without losing much of it in exit loads and payment of taxes. Certain investment instruments have strict norms about liquidity where the invested amount cannot be accessed for a fixed period of time. Usually fixed income instruments come with a fixed time period of investment. Public Provident Fund has a fixed investment period of fifteen years; National Pension Scheme has a fixed investment period till the investor turns 60 years. So while the fixed income instruments keep providing steady returns they are not liquid in nature. Hence, as investor you are sure you are setting aside investments for a certain purpose then fixed income instruments could be ideal. However, if you require quick returns and liquidity, liquid funds could be a good option where investors can invest for as less as even one month and keep generating returns instead of the money lying stagnant in bank accounts. Hence, investors also have to make the crucial choice of liquidity.
It is evident from what has already been said that risk, return and liquidity are perhaps more crucial choices to make than deciding the individual funds for investment. Investing choices are not just driven by a keen understanding of your needs and the risks you are willing to take in order to ensure their fulfillment. Before you start investing and make different choices do consult your financial advisors and check you risk taking appetite, decide your investment horizon and figure out the financial goals for which you are planning to invest.

Windows 7 Phone HTC Mazaa Photos Leaked
According to XDA Developers, an anonymous tipster has sent them photos of the new Windows 7 Smartphone, HTC Mazaa. The tipster claims the smartphone would be in Sprint's stores within the next few months.
The device is similar to the HTC 7 Trophy which was said to be on Verizon Wireless but rumors suggest the HTC Mazaa would be on Sprint.
The HTC Mazaa WP7 has a 3.7 inch WVGA screen with the typical three Microsoft buttons, a camera in the back with LED flash and a speaker. The phone might even have GSM capabilities since there seems to be an IMEI number on the device.
There was no mention on whether the phone includes gyroscope capabilities but you could be looking at the first Windows Phone 7 world phone, so its likely to have it.
Let us know what you think, comment below.
Here is a video of the HTC 7 Trophy.

"My father's care at UHNS"
About: Royal Stoke University Hospital / Cardiology Royal Stoke University Hospital Cardiology ST4 7LN
Posted by Daughter observing practice (as ),
My father was admitted as an emergency to A and E with severe back pains. He was assessed and found to have an aortic aneurysm. He suffers with Parkinson's disease and the combination of pain and morphine left him highly distressed and confused.
He was admitted to CCU on an open ward where he was managed well particularly by the surgeons who explained things fully to us and reassured us there were interventions which could help and also the staff nurse (Caroline).
The staff allowed us to visits as often as possible to orientate my father and this helped his recovery. He was then moved to ward 220 where although pleasant there were constant staff changes and it was difficult for staff to get to know my father and for them to understand that his periods of confusion link to his drug regime and his inability to express himself fully.
I feel that all ward staff need an awareness course on Parkinson's disease as every ward he was on admitted being unsure of the drugs and their effects.
I also feel that all ward staff need awareness of mental health issues as when he was confused there was a variety of responses- some staff telling him off even though it was clear he was agitated for a reason.
He was transferred to ward 221 where he received excellent care and we really felt that he was treated as a human being not just a patient. Here there seemed a better ratio of staff, more mature staff and a general ethos of treating patients with dignity.
Following surgery he was moved to critical care where there was excellent ratio and pleasant staff, then quickly moved onto ward 106 where there are hardly any staff around, no one explaining things to family and even observations of support staff sharing how bored they were on one occasion. My father arrived in hospital fully continent but today during visiting time was left to wait 50 minutes when he said he needed the toilet for his bowels. This again left him undignified and distressed.
A general comment would be to sort out the garments- he has been in hospital for 4 weeks and has either been in a gown which is open at the back or pyjamas which are way too small and barely cover him. He reports feeling very uncomfortable. I think the staffing levels on ward 106 need reviewing and also a reminder of the charter asking for all NHS staff to have the conversation regarding professionalism.
I would be happy to be interviewed for a patient story as my father has experienced both fantastic care and substandard care within the same hospital. Surely the poor care should learn from the good examples. The surgeons are world class and we are eternally grateful that my father is still alive and preparing for life back in the community but as with the recent Stafford enquiry it is often the little things which make the biggest difference- the smiling staff on ward 221, the cleaner who chased after us down the corridor to ask how he was, the staff nurse from CCU who popped into another ward to see how he was progressing, the doctor on ward 221 who said it had made her day to see my dad smiling. We still have so much to share and learn.

Burton Lyric Review And Buying Advice
Burton Lyric 2014 Review by The Good Ride
The Burton Lyric is an all mountain to all mountain freestyle kind of ride that is a soft all mountain cruiser but it's not really an all mountain bomber.
On Snow Feel: Same mostly stable flat top feel that is catch free and pretty stable between the feet. It's great for those that want a forgiving easy to turn ride and an easy float in powder.
Powder: The board has a 1/2 inch set back for easier directional riding in powder and combined with the flat to rocker it makes for a very good powder board.
Turn Initiation and Carving: I't easy edge to edge but not really a rewarding board for turning. It's the kind of board that makes for consequence free turns but there is nothing satisfying about them unless you are just happy not to catch an edge learning how to turn better.
Speed: Stable at moderate speeds but not really a bomber board. Its still mainly a beginner to intermediate board so it's not really factoring in higher speeds in the construction.
Uneven Terrain: Burton's always really good at handling bumpy terrain and this is no exception.
Edge Hold: Burton's Flat Top boards have a little more grip than their V-Rocker and some Flying V-Rocker boards but they still aren't completely there when it comes to solid grip. We'd love to see a little more of a waivy side cut in some way or another that would compensate for the tip/tail being up.
Flex: Very soft and buttery and easy to play around with.
Switch: Almost perfect either way due to the twin flex and twin shape if you center up the stance.
Jibbing: Pretty easy flex combined with the flat top camber profile makes for an easy jib park board which is un-common for a board marketed as an all mountain ride. Usually to ride the mountain well the flex has to be stiffer. Burton made this flex softer and that makes it a better jib board.
Pipe: Not enough grip or drive wall to wall for a fun pipe board. It's ok if you hit it when it's soft.
Jumps: Mediocre spring for ollies and a nice stable approach to kickers makes this a good jump board for learning to enjoy how to get more air.

The British technology company is getting some financial help from the government so that Dyson can work on an electric car.
If you thought there was a long way from vacuum cleaners or hand dryers to green cars, there is apparently not quite such a big leap, as all these "appliances" are using some sort of electric motors. At least, the UK-based company Dyson believes the distance is short. According to the recently published National Infrastructure Delivery Plan, the government is funding Dyson to develop a new battery electric vehicle at their headquarters in Malmesbury, Wiltshire, the Guardian reported. "This will secure 174-million-pound investment (254-milllion-dollar) in the area, creating over 500 jobs, mostly in engineering," said the document. The plan also reveals the company will get 16 million pounds (23.3 million dollars) to support its project.
Dyson has already denied several times that it is working on an electric car, but it bought the solid-state battery company Sakti3 last year, which founder James Dyson said it "developed a breakthrough in battery technology," for recently to announce it planned to invest 1 billion pounds in battery technology over the next five years.
The company has grown quite a lot in recent years and it is now worth several billion pounds, as it came up with many interesting devices which use small, light and efficient electric motors. Therefore, it has the know-how in this area, but there still is a long way to a mass-market green vehicle.
