This Labour Day I got to spend the entire day on the FFXIV Beta.
First, some back-story. I played FF11 for a good LONG time… long enough for me not to remember how long. I stopped playing 11 about 2 years ago. A major project was underway at work, one that I had been preparing for over the course of 2 or more years, and the time demands of said project were extreme. I was working 7 days a week, some nights I'd go home long enough to sleep and shower before coming back into work. This project went on at this rate for the better part of 4 months. In those months I stopped playing FF11 all together and by the time I started to have weekends again I couldn't handle the extra feelings of stress and responsibilities I had to various LS and group activities. I got through my cold turkey and the DT's of not playing 11 and by the time I could play again, I just didn't want to. The nail in the coffin came when I finally decided to cancel my account. I had previously left the account running just in case. However, when I attempted to access my account I couldn't. I had been hacked. I called support and got the account back. All my characters has been stripped, world shifted, and renamed. The vandalism was too great and I just didn't have it in me to try and have it fixed. I closed the account.
Since quitting FF11, I've played a lot of games trying to keep myself busy but the lure of a new MMO was always there. I tried WoW simply because I have a lot of friends who played it and I wanted that sense of community again. Sadly WoW didn't have what I wanted. The cartoon look always bothered me and I never felt that sense of togetherness that FF11 force-fed you through having to party to do… everything. Who would have thought that I'd miss forced grouping SO MUCH. I played WoW long enough to level a Prot-Pal to 80, join a raiding guild, and go so far as to do a couple NAX25 runs. I quit WoW soon after. All I could see in my WoW future was the same raid after raid like my last few days of 11.
It's been about a year or so that I've been MMO-less. I've been checking in on FF14 as often as possible. I applied to the Alpha and had no luck (I blame checking YES under the question "Do you work for the media"… damnit). I was however lucky enough to catch the second round of the Beta.
So what do I think of FF14? Well first off it looks AMAZING. The races are all too familiar to FF11 but everything has a brand new look. I remember back when Square-Enix released "The Last Remnant" saying to myself "God ****… I hope 14 looks as good as this". FF14 did not disappoint when it came to looks. The world is beautiful even when I have as many of the settings turned down so I can improve performance on my slightly less than adequate PC.
Game play is interesting. You can grind like in any MMO, I soloed to level 10 in the course of a day even in a highly populated starting area. There are also guild leves (quests) that you can take with customizable difficulty for solo or group play of various sizes. The quests are vary similar to most WoW quests; go here, kill 6 of these, get XP, gil, and sometimes a nifty piece of gear. Now if you are like me, a huge fan of the cutscene, be rest assured that all your quests are not just a page of text. All the story-arch quests are animated and voiced! So if you're doing guild leves and missing the classic SE cuts, don't worry, they're still out there with likely more to come as the months pass.
Combat has a very WoW feel. Unlike FF11, where you select attack from the menu and your character proceeds to swing away on their own as you watch and occasionally trigger a special attack or spell, 14 requires you to trigger every attack. As a direct comparison to 11… while I feel like I'm more involved in combat in 14, I kind of miss the laid back attack –> get sandwich –> weaponskill –> fold laundry simplicity of FF11 (okay it wasn't that bad). I foresee a future of the WoW classic 3,6,9 rotations and the MANY debates over which combination of attacks produce the highest DPS. So far I haven't had the chance to try out group play in 14 but I'm hoping that once September 22 rolls around, I will.
Here are some of the things I've learned from FF14 so far. Conjurer isn't a whitemage; it is a blackmage with Cure. DO NOT start crafting until you've killed a PILE of stuff and collected a lot of crystals shards. I absolutely do NOT recommend starting as a crafting job since it is next to impossible to get what you need to level. Gathering jobs are actually quite fun and really worth doing especially if you like to explore, you'll be doing a lot of walking to find all the resource points you need but you'll be rewarded with stuff to sell AND XP for every successful find. Limsa Lominsa (one of the starting cities) is a bigger, ugly Bastok that is way too hard to navigate. I also recommend that while each city at least has a satellite office for each craft, they do NOT have these guild outposts for the melee or magic jobs. You may want to pick the region that has the main office for your profession of choice.
Where does FF14 need to improve? First thing that needs to be fixed is an issue with guild leves. If you accept a quest and disconnect, it is an automatic failure. Second is the rate at which you can do leves. From what I've read, it can take up to 2 real days to be able to re-attempt a failed quest.
A new feature introduced in 14 that wasn't in 11, equipment wear, really needs to have a second look. Equipment wears out way too fast and it's a pain to get it fixed. Also, certain gear, like your underwear (no I'm totally serious), cannot be removed so you can fix it. Only an NPC can repair your undergarments and only up to 50%. Either SE needs to let me go commando or remove gear wear from irremovable equipment.
Finally, and this may just be me, but 90% of my time playing was with a yellow connection status. I've never has issue with my ISP connection speeds playing FF11 over my LAN network (wired is the only way to game) nor have I had issues playing any other game via Steam or Battle.net. I'm hoping that when the game goes live, server performance will improve and less lead to less quest failing disconnects…
All in all, I'm really enjoying FF14. There is lots of room for both solo and group play with the rewards to match. I just hope that the sense of community I had playing FF11 returns in FF14.

In the United States, Super Tuesday, in general, refers to the Tuesday in February or March of a presidential election year when the greatest number of states holdprimary elections to select delegates to national conventions at which each party's presidential candidates are officially nominated. The phrase "Super Tuesday"[1]has been used to refer to presidential primary elections since at least 1976.[2] More delegates can be won on Super Tuesday than on any other single day of the primary calendar; accordingly, candidates seeking the presidency traditionally must do well on this day to secure their party's nomination. In 2008, Super Tuesday was February 5; 24 states held primaries or caucuses on this date, with 52% of all pledged Democratic Party delegates and 49% of the total Republican Partydelegates at stake.[3] The 2016 Super Tuesday will be held on March 1.
Since Super Tuesday primaries are typically held in a large number of states from geographically and socially diverse regions of the country, Super Tuesday typically represents a presidential candidate's first test of national electability. Convincing wins in Super Tuesday primaries have usually propelled candidates to their party's nomination. The particular states holding primaries on Super Tuesday have varied from year to year.
The 1984 primary season had three "Super Tuesdays".[4] Decided on "Super Tuesday III" were delegates from five states: South Dakota, New Mexico, West Virginia,California and New Jersey.[5] The proportional nature of delegate selection meant that Walter Mondale was likely to obtain enough delegates on that day to secure the support of a majority of delegates and hence the nomination, no matter who actually "won" the states contested. However, Gary Hart maintained that unpledgedsuperdelegates that had previously claimed support for Mondale would shift to his side if he swept the Super Tuesday III primary.[6] Once again, Hart committed afaux pas, insulting New Jersey shortly before the primary day. Campaigning in California, he remarked that while the "bad news" was that he and his wife Lee had to campaign separately, "[t]he good news for her is that she campaigns in California while I campaign in New Jersey." Compounding the problem, when his wife interjected that she "got to hold a koala bear", Hart replied that "I won't tell you what I got to hold: samples from a toxic waste dump."[6] While Hart won California, he lost New Jersey after leading in polls by as much as 15 points. Mondale secured the majority of delegates from the primaries, leading the way for him to take the Democratic nomination.[4] (The 1984 Republican Party primaries were uncontested as incumbent President Ronald Reagan was the assured nominee).[citation needed]
The phrase "Super Tuesday" was next used to describe the primary elections that took place on March 8, 1988, in the Southern states of Texas, Florida, Tennessee,Louisiana, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Kentucky, Alabama, and Georgia leading up to the 1988 November election. In the 1988 Democratic Party primaries, Southern Democrats came up with the idea of a regional primary in an effort to nominate a moderate candidate who would more closely represent their interests. (Their plan ultimately did not succeed as Dick Gephardt, Jesse Jackson, Al Gore, and Michael Dukakis split the Super Tuesday primaries, and Dukakis was subsequently nominated.) Meanwhile, George H.W. Bush secured most of the delegates in the 1988 Republican Party primaries. From 1996 to 2004, most of these Southern primaries were held the week after Super Tuesday, dubbed "Southern Tuesday" by news commentators.[citation needed]
In 1992, Super Tuesday was on March 10. After losing earlier primaries, Democrat Bill Clinton emerged as a candidate "back from the dead" when he convincingly won a number of Southern primaries on Super Tuesday. Clinton ultimately went on to win the Democratic nomination and the presidency, defeating incumbent H.W. Bush, who was largely uncontested in the Republican primaries.[citation needed]
In 1996, Super Tuesday was on March 12. Bob Dole's Super Tuesday sweep sealed his bid for the Republican nomination. Clinton, as the incumbent president, was unopposed in the Democratic primaries.[citation needed]
In 2000, Super Tuesday was on March 7. Sixteen states held primaries on Super Tuesday, the largest presidential primary election day in U.S. history up to that point. In 2000, approximately 81% of Democratic delegates and 18% of Republican delegates needed to secure nomination were up for grabs on Super Tuesday. That year, Democrat Al Gore and Republican George W. Bush cemented their nomination bids with Super Tuesday victories, and both went on to win their parties' nominations.[citation needed]
In 2004, several states moved their presidential contests up to February 3, 2004 in order to increase the relative importance of their election results. Ultimately, five states held primaries and two held caucuses on this date, a date eventually christened Mini-Tuesday or, alternatively, Super Tuesday I by pundits, with the traditional March Super Tuesday date, March 2, christened Super Tuesday II, or just simply "Super Tuesday."
To increase importance of their votes, many states moved up their primaries to February 5, 2008. This new, earlier cohort of primaries and caucuses has thus come to be referred to as "Super Tuesday." (By way of denoting its political magnitude, some pundits have variously dubbed it "Giga Tuesday," "Mega Giga Tuesday," "Tsunami Tuesday" or even "Super Duper Tuesday."[7] "Super Tuesday" is, however, the nominal term and the one most widely used.)
In the spring of 2007, 24 states with over half the delegates to the national conventions moved to change their primary dates to February 5, 2008, creating the largest "Super Tuesday" to date. Newswriters and political pundits noted that it would dwarf the Super Tuesday primaries in previous cycles.[7] With only four states holding elections on the year's other Super Tuesday of March 4, 2008, one pundit said "this year, however, Super Tuesday isn't so super."[8]

Super Tuesday in 2012 took place on March 6, 2012, totaling 419 delegates (18.3% of the total) in 10 states on the Republican side.[9] (The Democratic primarieswere uncontested as incumbent President Obama was the assured nominee.) While the impact of this week in 2012 was dwarfed by preceding Super Tuesday contests, frontrunner Mitt Romney was able to pad his lead significantly, with wins in six states and over half the delegates at stake going into his column. However, Santorum's three wins (and a near-win in Ohio) allowed him to carry on for at least another month.

Super Tuesday in the 2016 election cycle is scheduled to be held on March 1, 2016. This date has been dubbed the "SEC Primary", since many of the participating states are represented in the U.S. collegiate Southeastern Conference.[10][11]
The participating states include: Alabama, Alaska Republican caucuses, Arkansas, Colorado caucuses, Georgia, Massachusetts, Minnesota caucuses, Oklahoma,Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, and Wyoming Republican caucuses.[11]
President Obama named federal appeals judge Merrick Garland on Wednesday as his pick to succeed Antonin Scalia on the U.S. Supreme Court – setting up a showdown with Republicans who have vowed to block the choice.
Obama, who said he went through a rigorous and comprehensive screening process, said Garland would bring "integrity, modesty and an even-handedness" to the Supreme Court.
"I said I would take this process seriously, and I did," Obama said at the Rose Garden ceremony.
Yet within minutes, Republicans doubled down on their opposition to confirming any nominee in an election year, insisting that the vacant seat not be filled until a new president is sworn in.
"It is a president's constitutional right to nominate a Supreme Court justice and it is the Senate's constitutional right to act as a check on a president and withhold its consent," Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said on the Senate floor.
Obama, anticipating the swift resistance, urged Republicans to reconsider, adding it would be unprecedented for Garland not to at least get a hearing.
"I hope they're fair. That's all," Obama said. "To give him a fair hearing and up or down vote."
Obama said earlier Wednesday that it was both his "constitutional duty to nominate a justice and one of the most important decisions that I – or any president – will make."
He added, "I'm doing my job. I hope that our senators will do their jobs, and move quickly to consider my nominee."
A Senate confirmation is required for any nominee to join the bench.
Before the announcement, Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, also told Fox News that neither he nor his GOP colleagues on the Senate Judiciary Committee would back down and declared once more he would stop the nomination from going forward.
"We've been clear," Lee said of his plan to reject Garland's nomination.
Garland has served under both Republicans and Democrats. He clerked for the court's liberal icon, Justice William J. Brennan Jr. In 1997, 32 Republicans voted in favor of his nomination, including seven who are still members of the Senate.
Garland was mentioned as a possible nominee when Justice Paul Stevens retired in 2010.
The vacancy ultimately went to Justice Elena Kagan.
Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York, the No. 3 Democratic leader, called Garland's section, "a bipartisan choice," adding: "If the Republicans can't support him, who can they support?"
Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, who spoke to Obama Wednesday morning, said in brief remarks on the Senate floor that Republicans must act on the president's choice. "He's doing his job this morning, they should do theirs," said the Nevada Democrat.
JUPITER, Fla. -- The media advisory read, "Donald J. Trump for President Press Conference." On GOP frontrunner Donald Trump's campaign website, under "Schedule," it said, "Press Conference in Palm Beach, FL" with the location listed at Mar-a-Lago, Trump's private Palm Beach club.
And Trump took the stage in front of supporters, with reporters exiled to the back primed to yell questions, just as the campaign has set up at three previous election night events. Everything seemed normal - normal for a Trump election night, anyway.
One problem: Trump took the stage, spoke for about twenty minutes, and then left without taking questions, which is typically the point of a press conference.
There was no infomercial-like touting of the Trump brand like last week. There were no "Trump Steaks" off to the side. It was just another odd election night with Trump.
NEW YORK – In what could have been the final Democratic presidential debate of the 2016 election, Bernie Sanders, the 74-year-old socialist insurgent, positioned himself as the future of the Democratic Party, while Hillary Clinton steamrolled her rival with a steady stream of facts and pragmatism.
Thursday's debate at Brooklyn's Navy Yard, the ninth this cycle, was the most contentious yet, and it came just days before the make-or-break New York primary on April 19.
"History has outpaced Secretary Clinton," Sanders said, a day after 27,000 (mostly) young people filled Washington Square Park in Manhattan to see him.
Sanders made that point discussing criminal justice reform, an issue that underscores more than any other how far the Democratic Party has come during Clinton's career in public life. Her introduction to the political stage came in 1992, when her husband, then-Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton, made a show of taking time off the presidential campaign trail to oversee the execution of a black man in Arkansas.
Hillary Clinton has evolved with her party and adroitly found the pulse of the broad Democratic coalition. Where she's out of step with the base, it's by choice, such as her defense Thursday night of a $12 federal minimum wage instead of the $15 floor favored by Sanders and most labor unions.
Sanders calls 'super predator' a racist term
The debate reminded voters that Clinton has been in the center of politics for a long time and has had to abandon a lot of former positions to get here.
Her invocation of "super predators" once in the 1990s has haunted her and her husband on the campaign trail this year. "It was a racist term, and everybody knew it was a racist term," Sanders said Thursday.
Sanders has been in politics a long time as well but always on the outskirts. The progressive base, though so far not the wide party coalition, has caught up with where Sanders has been along.
"I think the future of the Democratic Party is not simply raising money from wealthy campaign contributors," he said on his signature issue about campaign finance.
The dynamic produced a fiery and illuminating debate. Here are five takeaways.
A debate conducted in all caps
All signs suggested this would be the most feisty debate yet between the Democratic nominees, and it did not disappoint. The tone was loud – the debate was conducted at a near yell for the entire two hours – and at times even sarcastic.
"Secretary Clinton called them out?" Sanders said of his rival's tough talk on Wall Street. "Oh, my goodness, they must have been really scared by this. Was that before or after you received huge sums of money from them?"
The rowdy crowd, stacked with supporters of both sides, cheered on their candidates and booed the other. Each campaign was given 400 tickets to hand out to loyal fans.
Clinton: Sanders also attacking Obama over Super PACs
The candidates repeatedly spoke over each other, leading moderator Wolf Blitzer of CNN to scold them like children. "You're both screaming at each other. The voters won't be able to hear either of you," he said.
When not talking past each other, they glared and rolled their eyes.
Clinton on offense
Clinton has typically alternated between ignoring and attacking Sanders, but tonight, she delivered some of her fiercest pummeling yet.
She came swinging immediately out of the gate, saying Sanders was out of his depth on foreign policy and unable to talk about it "without having some paper in front of him."
In one sentence, she summed up her argument: "It's easy to diagnose the problem; it's harder to do something about the problem."
Clinton landed blows once again on guns. "He kept his word to the NRA," she said of Sanders. And she delivered one of the loudest applause lines of the entire night by noting that throughout so many debates, "We've not had one question about a woman's right to make her own decisions about abortion."
Jewish voters make up nearly 1 of every 7 New York Democratic primary voters, according to a new NBC News poll, and Israel emerged as a key issue between Clinton and Sanders.
The candidates played against type on the Israeli-Palestinian debate, with Sanders, who is Jewish, speaking up for the rights of Palestinians, while the more hawkish Clinton advocated for Israel's conservative government. The argument at times was a toxic well of lefty political debates, with each adopting positions that would be familiar to any college dorm room debater.
Sander criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's rigidity. And he knocked Clinton for devoting so little time to the plight of Palestinians in her recent speech to AIPAC, the Jewish lobby group that Sanders snubbed last month by declining to speak to them.
Clinton defended Netanyahu – his job is "very difficult," she said – and said the U.S. should engage in the region only "without ever undermining Israel's security."
New York state of mind
Both candidates claim New York connections, but Clinton, the state's former senator, worked harder to highlight them. "I love being in Brooklyn. This is great," Clinton said at one point. In her opening remarks, she made sure to praise "New York values" – the term Sen. Ted Cruz used to smear Donald Trump as an East Coast liberal.
Sanders predicts nomination win
Sanders, with his outer-borough accent, declares his origin with every word he speaks. But he reserved direct appeals for his closing argument. "I grew up in Brooklyn the son of an immigrant," he said, telling his family's story.
Meanwhile, Sanders continued to downplay Clinton's large wins with Southern black voters. He got "murdered" in the Deep South, he acknowledged, but "we are out of the Deep South now." It's a risky proposition for a candidate who needs to perform better with people of color and who owes many of his own wins to red states like Utah and Nebraska.
Failure to disclose
Clinton still doesn't have a good answer on why she hasn't released transcripts of the paid speeches she gave to Goldman Sachs and other private groups for hundreds of thousands of dollars each.
This time, rather than trying to answer the question. Clinton pivoted to attacking Sanders on other issues. First, she moved to a financial reform vote Sanders took and, when that didn't satisfy the moderators, hit him for not releasing his tax returns.
That led to Sanders revealing that he still doesn't have a great answer on that subject. "Jane does our taxes. We've been a little bit busy, you'll excuse us," Sanders said of his wife. He did, however, announce that he will release his 2014 tax returns Friday.
2016 General Election Match-Ups
Looking ahead to some possible November election match-ups between the remaining presidential candidates, registered voters give Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton a 10-point lead over Donald Trump, the same as last month.
But Clinton does not fare as well against the other two Republican candidates actively seeking their party's nomination -- Ted Cruz and John Kasich. Clinton holds just a three-point lead over Cruz, and she trails Kasich by six points in head-to-head match-ups.
Clinton's Democratic rival, Bernie Sanders, fares better. Bernie Sanders beats all three Republican candidates among registered voters: he holds a 17-point lead over Trump, a 12-point lead over Cruz, and a five-point lead over John Kasich.
2016 General Election Match-Ups: The Demographics
Women and younger voters favor the Democratic candidate - whether Clinton or Sanders - in all of these scenarios, with Trump faring the worst among these two groups. Bernie Sanders is the stronger candidate among younger voters, and he outpaces Hillary Clinton among men. While men choose all three of the Republican candidates over Clinton by double-digit margins, Sanders runs evenly with Trump and Cruz among men (though he loses to Kasich).
Independents vote Democratic against both Donald Trump and Ted Cruz no matter which candidate runs against them. Trump does particularly poorly with independents, losing them by 18 points against Clinton and 26 points against Sanders.
John Kasich - the only Republican who beats Hillary Clinton in these match-ups - wins against Clinton among independents by nine points, but loses independents against Sanders by six points. Kasich gets strong support against both Clinton and Sanders from voters over 65.
Nearly six in 10 registered voters are now paying a lot of attention to the presidential campaign, and interest is about the same among both Democrats and Republicans. Among this group of voters, John Kasich has a slight lead over Bernie Sanders. Trump does slightly better among this group as well, though he still trails both Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.
Views of the Candidates
The two party's frontrunners are both the best known and the most disliked candidates among registered voters overall. Sixty-three percent of registered voters view Donald Trump unfavorably, a six-point increase from just last month. Trump's unfavorable rating has risen 10 points among independent voters.
On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton fares better, but over half (54 percent) of registered voters still view Clinton unfavorably, similar to a month ago. Ted Cruz is also viewed negatively - more than twice as many voters view him unfavorably (48 percent) than favorably (22 percent).
Bernie Sanders and John Kasich are both viewed more favorably than unfavorably, though just over half still don't have an opinion of Kasich.
All of the candidates have net favorable ratings among the members of their respective parties, but Democrats are more favorable towards their two potential nominees. About six in 10 Democrats view both Clinton and Sanders favorably, though more view Clinton unfavorably (20 percent) than Sanders (12 percent).
In contrast, just about half of Republicans view Donald Trump favorably, while less than half have favorable opinions of Ted Cruz or John Kasich. Negative views are also higher among Republicans for their candidates, particularly for Trump and Cruz -- about a third of Republicans have unfavorable opinions of each of them. It's noteworthy that just under half of Republicans don't have an opinion of Kasich.
Most independents view Trump, Clinton, and Cruz unfavorably, though they have a net favorable opinion of both John Kasich and Bernie Sanders.
Views of Trump
For voters who view Trump favorably, his outspokenness is most often volunteered as what they like best about him (27 percent), followed by what they see as his honesty and integrity (15 percent). Further down on the list are that they think he's not beholden to special interests (9 percent), that he's a political outsider (8 percent
Ohio Gov. John Kasich will suspend his presidential campaign on Wednesday, senior campaign advisers tell NBC News.
Kasich cancelled a press conference in Virginia earlier in the day and announced he would make a statement in Columbus, Ohio, Thursday afternoon.
The decision comes one day after Kasich finished a distant third in the Indiana primary. Top campaign aides had vowed that the governor would stay in the race, even after Ted Cruz, who formed an informal alliance with Kasich, suspended his campaign.
RELATED: It's Donald Trump's GOP after Ted Cruz drops out
Kasich will end his run with just one primary victory, which came in his home state of Ohio. He remained in the race long after he was mathematically eliminated from clinching the GOP nomination, arguing that no candidate will earn a majoirity of the delegates ahead of the convention in Cleveland, Ohio, this summer.
But Donald Trump's commanding win in Indiana on Tuesday made stopping the front-runner nearly impossible. Party leaders like Republican National Committee Chair Reince Priebus called Trump the "presumptive nominee" even with Kasich still in the race.
Though Kasich suspends his campaign as one of the final two remaining GOP candidates, he currently sits fourth in total delegates earned, trailing Trump, Cruz and Marco Rubio – who suspended his campaign March 15.
Kasich campaigned on a message of positivity, largely trying to stay away from the personal attacks that have defined the tumultuous Republican primary. The former congressman earned a number of high-profile endorsements, and voters on the campaign trail frequently thanked him for delivering an optimistic message. In addition to his Ohio victory, he earned a surprisingly strong second-place finish in New Hampshire, where he soundly beat better known rivals like Jeb Bush and Chris Christie.
In the final weeks of their campaigns, Kasich and Cruz entered into an informal alliance. Each focused their campaigns' efforts on nominating contests where they had the best shot at defeating Trump. But the agreement proved ineffective in the Hoosier State, where Trump easily rolled to victory even though Kasich did not compete in the state. An NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll showed the pact was largely unpopular among GOP primary voters.
The governor justified his continuation in the race by arguing he is the best Republican to defeat the Democratic nominee in a general election. Out of the final three remaining candidates, Kasich was the only one who consistently beat Hillary Clinton in one-on-one polling.
"You win a primary, you lose the general, what's the point?" Kasich said last month at an MSNBC town hall. "What do you hang a certificate on your wall? …I'm the only one who consistently beats Hillary."
Elizabeth Warren on VP nod: 'I'm not thinking about another job'
Elizabeth Warren is declining to say whether she would consider running on the Democratic ticket with Hillary Clinton, insisting instead that she's focused on her current job and that Democrats still have to "get all of our nominations settled."
Asked during an interview with Mic whether or not she would consider serving as Hillary Clinton's vice president, Warren demurred, saying "I love my job. I'm here in the United States Senate doing exactly what the people of Massachusetts sent me here to do."
"This is something we've got to get all of our nominations settled on the Democratic side," she added. "For me, I'm going to keep doing my job every single day and I'm not thinking about another job."
Warren added that she has not spoken to Clinton recently.
The progressive Massachusetts senator is considered most ideologically aligned with Senate colleague Bernie Sanders, who shares her aggressive rhetoric on income inequality and Wall Street.
'But Warren has pointedly declined to endorse either candidate in the Democratic race, focusing instead on attacks aimed at presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump.
Donald J. Trump pushed back aggressively on Thursday against what he called "false smears" from women who claimed unwanted advances, seeking to stabilize his campaign as Michelle Obama declared "it doesn't matter what party you belong to, no woman deserves to be treated this way."
The New York Times reported on Wednesday night that Mr. Trump had touched two women inappropriately, groping them and kissing them forcefully in ways that echoed the boasts of being able to sexually assault women that he made in a 2005 video that was unearthed last week. Other news organizations, including The Palm Beach Post, BuzzFeed and People magazine, reported stories about women who had similar encounters with Mr. Trump, who has said that he never acted on his "locker-room talk" in the 2005 video.
In a series of messages posted on Twitter on Thursday morning, Mr. Trump said that the story in The Times was a "total fabrication" and denied the incident described by Natasha Stoynoff, the writer for People magazine, who said that Mr. Trump forced his tongue down her throat while she was working on an assignment about his first anniversary with his wife Melania.
At a rally in West Palm Beach, Fla., Mr. Trump lashed out at the media for buttressing Hillary Clinton's campaign, calling the reports about his inappropriate behavior "false smears."
"Anyone who challenges them is deemed a racist, a sexist, a xenophobe and morally deformed," he said of the media, repeatedly singling out The Times.
"They will seek to destroy everything about you, including your reputation," Mr. Trump said. "They will lie, lie lie and they will do worse than that."
Mr. Trump also threatened to take legal action in response to the new allegations and warned through his lawyer that he might sue The Times for libel if it did not retract the article and apologize.
"Your article is reckless, defamatory and constitutes libel per se," Marc E.Kasowitz, Mr. Trump's lawyer, wrote in a letter to The Times. "It is apparent from, among other things, the timing of the article, that it is nothing more than a politically motivated effort to defeat Mr. Trump's candidacy."
Eileen Murphy, a spokeswoman for The Times, said in a statement, "We stand by the story, which falls clearly into the realm of public service journalism."
The Clinton campaign said that the latest revelations were more evidence that Mr. Trump is unfit to be president and that they showed that he lied on the debate stage on Sunday night.
At a rally in New Hampshire, Mrs. Obama, the first lady, ripped into Mr. Trump and said that his treatment of women was a sign weakness. "We simply cannot endure this or expose our children to it any longer, not for another minute let alone another four years," Mrs. Obama said.
She added, "Now is the time to stand up and say enough is enough."
The Trump campaign has been thrown into turmoil by the allegations and the damage that the video has done to his standing with women and with the Republican leaders who have disavowed him or revoked their endorsements.
National and state polls show Mr. Trump's support has cratered in the last two weeks. In an effort to turn things around, he has stepped up his personal attacks on Mrs. Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton. Mr. Trump has also dispatched his daughter, Ivanka, to the Pennsylvania suburbs on Thursday in the hope that she can lift his standing in the crucial swing state.
Some of Mr. Trump's staunchest allies have been unusually critical of him during the most difficult stretch of his campaign.
Newt Gingrich, the former House speaker and presidential candidate in 2012 who wanted to be Mr. Trump's running mate, suggested on Thursday that there were two Donald Trumps.
"There's a big Trump and a little Trump," he said in an appearance on the Fox Business Network. "The little Trump is frankly pathetic."
However, not all of Mr. Trump's supporters are ready to ditch him.
Jerry Falwell Jr., a prominent evangelical Christian leader who is the president of Liberty University in Virginia, said that he did not believe the allegations made against Mr. Trump and defended his character.
"That videotape that was released last week, I think there's a different Donald Trump now," Mr. Falwell told CNN. "Unlike Hillary, I believe all people are redeemable, and I believe his life has changed."
At Mr. Trump's rally in West Palm Beach, the candidate's most ardent fans stood by him.
"I hope it's not true, but I can't look at that right now," said Karen Hainline, 54, of Wellington, Fla. "I have to look at who is going to run our country and make jobs. We're getting people beheaded in our own country. We need security."
The battleground map is shifting once again in Donald Trump's favor, according to the latest Fox News Electoral Scorecard, portending a potentially tight race Tuesday against Hillary Clinton, who continues to hold the electoral-vote advantage.
According to an update to the scorecard released Monday, Clinton can still get to the necessary 270 electoral votes by winning all the states rated "solid" or "leaning" Democratic.
But just barely. Doing so would get Clinton to 274.
Trump is looking at a narrow – but expanding – path to 270, and he could win by snatching up the toss-ups and flipping at least one state currently seen as leaning toward Clinton.
The following updates were made Monday morning to the Fox News Decision Team's ratings for key battlegrounds:
See the Fox News 2016 battleground prediction map and make your own election projections.See Predictions Map →
- Arizona changes from "toss up" to "lean Republican"
- Iowa changes from "toss up" to "lean Republican"
- Nevada changes from "toss up" to "lean Democrat"
- North Carolina changes from "lean Democrat" to "toss up"
- Utah changes from "toss up" to "lean Republican"
All but the rating change in Nevada reflect an improving picture for the Republican nominee, even as the latest polls show a mixed picture. A Fox News poll released Monday morning showed Clinton expanding her lead to 4 points nationally.
If Trump wins the "solid Republican" states along with those currently seen as leaning in his direction he'd come away with 215 electoral votes. Winning the toss-up states and their 49 electoral votes wouldn't be enough for Trump -- he'd have to steal a blue state.
Trump and Clinton are both keeping an aggressive campaign schedule on the eve of the election, trying to drive out supporters in the final swing.
Trump, speaking Monday in Saratoga, Fla., the first of five rallies, said if he wins, "corrupt politicians and their donors lose."
On the heels of the FBI once again closing its Clinton email investigation, he said: "Now it's time for the American people to deliver justice at the ballot box."
Before embarking on a final campaign swing through three battleground states, Clinton told reporters that she has "some work to do to bring the country together" and that she wants to be president for those who vote for her and those who don't.
In the latest ratings, North Carolina was shifted to "toss up" amid a heated race for the critical battleground.
Clinton long held a small lead in the polls there, but the race has tightened to the point where neither candidate has a clear advantage.
Utah has been a hard state to gauge, with independent candidate Evan McMullin surging in several October polls. McMullin could still potentially surprise Tuesday night, but Trump now seems to have the advantage.
Nevada, meanwhile, is shifting to "lean Democrat" as early voting in the state suggests a turnout surge among Hispanic voters coming out against Trump.

Today on the show I visit New York's PS244 – The Active Learning Elementary School — in Flushing, Queens to chat with science teacher and Director of the school's Wellness and Nutrition Program Christian Ledesma, as well as PS244′s Principal Bob Groff to find out how PS244 became the first public school in the United States to institute a vegetarian school lunch.
But what I pleasantly discovered went well beyond a simple cafeteria upgrade. PS244′s revolutionary school lunch program is just the latest manifestation of a school founded on principals of wellness. It's fair to say that the very fibre of PS244′s DNA is the promotion of holistic health for kids premised on the advancement of not just the mind, but that of the childrens' bodies & character.
And it shows. I saw food being grown in hanging gardens along the playground fences. Kindergartners making their own granola bars and tasting blackberries in after-school programs. Even a tower garden in the school library. And that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the day-to-day goings on at this special institute.
What PS244 has accomplished — seemingly impossible within the confines of a very large & bureaucratic urban school district — is beyond inspiring. And yet obviously doable when passion aligns with faith and hard work. The bar is set. And my hope is that this school's example will empower other teachers, administrators, principals, parents and students to take greater initiative in their own schools and districts and aspire for positive change.
Special thanks to Amie Hamlin, Executive Director of the New York Coalition for Healthy School Food. It was her and this organization, working tirelessly for several years in alliance with the New York Department of Education, that made the impossible real. My desire was to include Amie in this interview, but she was not in NYC on the day of my visit, so my plan is to interview her for a future podcast episode. Stay tuned!

Shell Shells Out More to Lobby Government
Oil company spends $800K in second quarter, up roughly 36 percent from a year ago.
WASHINGTON -- Shell Oil Co., the U.S. arm of Europe's Royal Dutch Shell, spent $800,000 to lobby the federal government in the second quarter of this year, according to a recent disclosure report cited by The Associated Press.
Shell's tally matched its spending for the first quarter, but was nearly 36 percent higher than what it spent a year ago. The company lobbied on the pending climate-change bill that's expected to significantly increase operating costs for oil producers and refiners, the AP report stated.
Shell also lobbied on regulatory issues related to drilling permits in Alaska, health care measures and the Alien Tort Statute as it pertains to the enforcement of foreign judgments in the U.S, according to the form filed July 20, with the House clerk's office.
Besides Congress, Shell lobbied the departments of Energy, Interior and Commerce in the period of April through June, as well as the Environmental Protection Agency and Coast Guard, among others, the AP reported.

India's automaker Mahindra is set to revolutionize its entire range by offering petrol engines with all of its models in 2018.
The switch to offering petrol options has been on the cards for a while now but it has been sped up by the recent ban on large diesel engines in the Delhi NCR region.
Pawan Goenka, executive director, M&M said, "Any product that we launch from a year after will come with a petrol engine. We are currently working on a 1.5-litre petrol engine. As a result, all our future vehicles will be equipped with either a 1.2-, 1.5- or 2.0-litre engine. After we launch the 1.5-litre engine, we would be as good as any other competitor with a petrol offering in India."
Goenka also revealed that Mahindra is already working on a petrol powered variant of the XUV500, with a petrol powered Scorpio set to follow in its footsteps soon after in the early part of 2017-18.
Another reason for the shift towards petrol engines was the response towards the petrol-powered KUV1OO, which was launched in January. Almost half of the customers opted for the petrol KUV1OO, 10 percent more than Mahindra's expectations.
Mahindra's move towards petrol engines is a very savvy move and comes at the right time as India's attitude towards diesel seems to be going from bad to worse with every passing day.

It's not the greatest day for spending money, but we'll enjoy it if we do!
The last Saturday before Christmas has us enjoying the weekend with fun-loving vibrations that bring in friends, laughter, silliness, stories, movies, way too much food (fire up the coffee pot), and overall merriment.......
We may have the feeling that there is more drama than usual today (5), but most often it is an illusion only. If you get the feeling that the day is getting carried away, take a few minutes to be still (2) and just enjoy the sights and sounds of the day.
If you're spending this season alone, you can still enjoy the sights and sounds the Earth as to offer. It doesn't have to include decorations. You can enjoy the trees, the sun (if it's shining), flowers (if they are blooming), or the messages on the wind (3). Can you hear them?
This weekend, take time to enjoy life exactly as it is - exactly as you are.

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Sept. 12, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Envivio (Nasdaq:ENVI), a leading provider of software-based video processing and delivery solutions, today announced that the latest version of its software-based Envivio Muse™ On-Demand transcoder, version 3.60, offers high quality and high speed transcoding that reduces costs for operators at various stages in the on-demand workflow. The Envivio on-demand solution, which includes the Muse On-Demand transcoder and Envivio 4Balancer™ load balancing software, enables cost savings in a variety of areas including:
- Storage: Used in conjunction with the dynamic (just-in-time) packaging capabilities of the Envivio Halo™ network media processor, Muse On-Demand allows operators to use 3-4 times less storage than scenarios where they would need to produce and store multiple final output formats.
- Power: The software-based design of Muse, running on industry-standard Intel appliances or blade servers, can use up to 50% less power than GPU-based encoders occupying the same rack space, with the same volume of assets, processed in the same amount of time.
- CDN: Operators can reduce CDN costs by up to 15% compared to GPU-based architectures, while achieving equivalent video quality.
- Operating expenses: Service providers using Envivio's integrated VidChecker quality control (QC) to automate asset inspection can save resources and time. Also, utilizing Muse On-Demand in a datacenter environment eliminates the need for maintenance of custom hardware.

Las Vegas newspaper copyright enforcement company Righthaven LLCs standing to file lawsuits is being challenged again, this time in Colorado.
Righthaven since March 2010 has filed 274 lawsuits alleging copyright infringement against website operators, bloggers and message board posters. It sues over Las Vegas Review-Journal and Denver Post material.
Its standing to sue is under attack in several cases and U.S. District Judge James Mahan in Las Vegas has said that under its lawsuit contract with the Review-Journal, Righthaven does not appear to have standing to sue. Mahan has rescheduled until next month a hearing on that issue.
Defense attorneys in some of the Review-Journal cases say the lawsuits are based on "sham copyright assignments and Righthaven is merely acting as the agent of Review-Journal owner Stephens Media LLC. But Righthaven insists it owns the copyrights at issue, giving it the right to sue.
The latest challenge to Righthavens right to sue was made this week in federal court in Denver by attorneys for defendant OSM Media LLC, which owns the website pajamasmedia.com
OSM was sued after a Denver Post TSA pat-down photo was displayed on its website along with commentary by conservative Pajamas Media blogger Bryan Preston that "this image is fast becoming the symbol of the new `Dont touch my junk movement.
In answering the lawsuit this week, OSM attorneys argued:
Righthavens claims are barred by the doctrine of fair use -- an argument judges agreed with in two Review-Journal cases
Righthavens claim is barred by the First Amendment
Righthaven lacks standing to assert infringement claims and "the Denver Post and not plaintiff is the real party in interest.
"Plaintiffs unclean hands bar it from seeking equitable relief and Righthavens failure to provide notice of the alleged infringement before suing "bars it...

Righthaven needs to go down
Man, I hope Righthaven gets smacked down. Then, maybe if we get a President who's not always golfing and a Congress that doesn't spend us into oblivion, they could take time to revise the copyright laws to bring them into the 21st century.
I hope the shysters at Righthaven didn't quit their day jobs.
Good, their scam operation needs to be shut down.
Jim once this is all said and done you should counter-sue these AssHats.
I hope their "clients" have enough money left to pay us all back. Our settlements (extortion fees), our legal fees and something for grief. If not, it'll be sad to watch them go under. Don't touch my junk, indeed!
Let's hope this case in Colorado goes good. It is nice to see this fiasco backfire on them.
From the linked article;
"Loosle complained Righthaven is engaging "in the common law sin of `champerty, which is the sale to someone with no interest in the alleged wrong being sued on of a right to sue for a percentage of the amount recovered in the suit."
Sounds right on to me!
Rotten bastards!
I hope so too!!! They should also have to compensate us for our "pain and suffering" over being sued!
Please, no! Every time they do that it gets worse!
May they go down in flames after compensating all the sites they sued. Please God.
It would be great (true justice) if they were ordered by the court to return all the money they 'stole' from previous defendants.

me and my ex are sort of still seeing each other we broke up a month ago. I sent him a letter acknowledging my faults and what not.
he is way-overworked at the moment 6 x 12 hour days
he doesn't seem happy he ignores his best friends. and seems frustrated even when hanging with me. I don't know what is wrong with him he seems so intense. I asked if he wanted to talk, he didn't seem up for it. so I said id give him a massage instead to relieve physical pain.
how can I make him happy he seems frustrated by everything atm cause of work, and I don't want to ruin are chances of getting back together, he seems to get frustrated when I ask him questions atm, and called me sorry mum. and then apologized for calling me mum. he seems so depressed and it upsets me, I don't want him to feel sad.
any ideas?
Guys, how can a girl make you happy and want to hang out more?

wow, I feel like I'm going through such a similar thing. I want to be back with him, and I know he loves me, but he is stressed out and depressed about a lot right now and wants space to work on himself. he said the only way he will feel good about the two of us is if he feels good as an individual. basically, all I feel I am able to do is respect his want for some time and space, but also let him know I support him and not give him a hard time. that is what I've been doing, and though we are not back together, I feel it is the best I can do at the moment. just don't be pushy. let him know you are there for him if he wants to talk. I think he will want to spend time with you when he starts 1) feeling better about himself and NOT leaning on you for happiness, and 2) after that happens, he will possibly think of you as a comfort since you were there for him while his crappy situations were happening.00|00|0
hey yeah I've been hard on him, pushy impatient and insecure. which were the reasons he broke up with me. it cuased too many fights.
i just can't be happy and jolly around him, becuase I'm upset about the break up and stressed about my uni work atm. and I'm insecure and worried he will go off with someone else int he meantime.
i keep pushing him further away. :(
- Show AllShow Less
thats a good point, I just keep meeting up with him every Friday becuase I don't want him to go home with anoyone else?
yeah girl, I sure know that feeling. its so hard to not do it when you WANT to see him, but I really think that if you want him to be able to think clearly about not having you at all, you should not be so available. I'm not even one to talk, because I've seen my ex pretty much any time he wants because he's been depressed and I want to be there for him, so he hasn't really gotten a feel for what its like to not have me around and I think guys need to feel that sometimes.

The practice of giving out pro cards to the top two in each class was presumably started to stock the pond with pro competitors back when they started the sport in the mid-90s, but now it seems like overkill with such a dearth of pro shows to compete in. If only the class winners in bodybuilding get pro cards, it should be same in Fitness and Figure.

Vocês não tem a opção de um ano para o "Prêmio Dois Anos Membership"
No, unfortunately. Payments using Bank transfer require manual handling so only payments over $100 apply. This is why you can get Premium bi-yearly and higher plans for yearly and bi-yearly.
You will however save more with bi-yearly plans than with yearly.
If you take 2 years of Premium Yearly you would pay $200, while bi-yearly is $139 - $61 USD saved :)

- Career Opportunities
- Comp & Benefits
- Senior Management
Compass Group USAPart of Compass Group
I worked at Compass Group USA full-time (More than 5 years)
they paid fairly well if the management liked you
your only as good as your management and its an old boys network or was back then - not a lot of growth
Advice to Management
listen to your employees and be nice
I worked at Compass Group USA full-time (More than a year)
- Felt like my bosses cared when I had an issue. Always quick to respond to any questions or problems
- Very big on diversity
- I think upper management really tried to make work enjoyable/fun but didn't know how to relate to lower-level employees- often spoke to them like they were in elementry school
- I believe this is a great company for those working at the corporate level. For those involved in operations, I don't thnk things are as nice.
- They told me they would promote me in 3 months and after 1 year it never happened
- Have to wait a year and a half to apply to another position!!
- Felt like directors and those not directly involved in the operation didn't care to hear our opinions and therefore didn't understand half of the things going on that they were criticizing
Advice to Management
Spend more time talking to lower level staff and finding out how to reach them
I worked at Compass Group USA full-time (More than a year)
Starting pay was $9 which wasn't bad at the time. Possible room for advancement, which really only meant more work, more stress and sometime not even better pay due to salary breakdown versus hours worked. Hourly employees actually had it better depending on the week.
Even that somewhat-blighted advancement was only likely if you fell in line with the right people, who happened to be the most corrupt people. The inmates caused trouble, but your colleagues and superiors often worked to cause YOU trouble if it served their purposes. Not a good environment - HUGE turnover rate for this and other reasons.
Advice to Management
Pay your employees what they're worth BUT hire better people for the job in the first place. Management was a joke - at least 4 out of the 6 or 7 managers we worker bees floated between used their positions to get away with whatever they wanted while working us like dogs. Half of my co-workers were way too "slow" to be working in the prison environment, mentally and physically. It put more work on my shoulders even though in one case the co-worker earned more than me. He needed more direction and training than the inmates and was actually a significant safety risk. Meanwhile, I worked hard and fast for less money, and did as much overtime as it took to get the job done every day for 18 months and in the end got the shaft so my manager could cover up her love affair with an inmate. But the root of the problem was my supervisor's supervisor, who was no help and corrupt himself. I don't know if we can use names here but it wouldn't matter because they both ended up fired for shady dealings shortly after I quit.

Overview (3)
|in Mainz, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany
|Birth Name
|Thorsten Ernst Kieselbach
|6' 1" (1.85 m)
Mini Bio (1)
Thorsten moved to the US in 1985 on a track (decathlon) scholarship to the United States International University in San Diego. Although Thorsten majored in physical education (and minored in drama), a serious motorcycle accident forced him to choose a different direction. He played soccer for a while, but ultimately changed his major to drama and received his Bachelor's Degree in fine arts. After a rugby tour through Europe, Kaye enrolled in graduate school at Wayne State University in Detroit, where he earned his master's degree in theater and theater history.
Although he fondly remembers his first professional role as that of the "Wicked Witch of the West" when he was 17 years old in England, Thorsten portrayed some of the most memorable characters in classical theater, from Macbeth to Mark Antony, while a member of the Hilberry Repertory Theatre Company in Detroit. Thorsten then moved to Los Angeles, where he garnered roles in various television projects, including the CBS mini-series: Sidney Sheldon's "Nothing Lasts Forever", before moving to New York to accept the role of Professer Patrick Thornhart on the ABC-TV daytime drama "One Life to Live."
After leaving "One life to Live," Thorsten starred in the 2000 film "Shark Attack 2." Later in 2000, Thorsten returned to daytime television as Dr. Ian Thornhart (Patrick's older brother) on the ABC-TV drama "Port Charles." In 2004, he accepted the role of the mysterious Zach Slater on ABC-TV's "All My Children."
Thorsten is the author of two books: "From Timber Ridge to Daymer Gardens: A Journey in Words," co-written with the late Dorothy Bridges, and "A Solid Wheel of Colored Ribbons," a book of children's poems with illustrations by Tami Evans Foster (to be published in the spring of 2009).
When not working, Thorsten enjoys music, literature, riding American motorcycles, hockey (following the Detroit Red Wings), and football (he is a Miami Dolphins fan).
