POPE Licenses To Be Abolished
Under proposed new legislation (the Environmental Planning Legislation Amendment Bill 2006), the requirement to obtain a Place of Public Entertainment Licence (POPE Licences) under the Local Government Act 1993 will be abolished. In its place, the Environmental Planning & Assessment Act 1979 (the Act) will regulate places of public entertainment. To this end, premises will need to obtain development consents under the Act to enable the premises to be used as places of public entertainment. The Act will also prescribe conditions of development consents that will apply to all places of public entertainment. Concurrent amendments will be made to the Liquor Act 1982 so as to only allow a night club licence to be granted if a development consent is in force under the Act for the use of the premises as a place of public entertainment.
The proposed legislation contains savings and transitional provisions relating to existing POPE Licences and applications for POPE Licences that have been made but not determined at the time of the commencement of the legislation. In summary, conditions of existing POPE Licences continue to apply for a period of two years as if they were contained as regulations under the Act and existing applications are to be determined under the existing unamended Act (as if the legislations had not been enacted). The legislation also proposes to amend the existing use rights provisions so as to make premises that have existing use rights (for the purpose of a POPE) subject to conditions that need to be complied with, so as to enable the use of a building as a place of public entertainment to be continued. Finally, any orders issued by councils seeking to regulate places of public entertainment that are issued prior to the legislation coming into force continue to apply as if the legislation had not been enacted.
Accordingly, if this legislation does commence, premises will be required to comply with the proposed prescribed conditions regulating the use of places of public entertainment that are to be contained within the Act and associated regulations and, depending on the final form of the legislation, may also need to apply for new development applications to expressly authorise the use. These conditions are likely to relate to the management and security procedures that are employed by premises.
Anti Smoking Laws And Applications For Outdoor Smoking Areas
Since January 2005, there has been a gradual phasing out of smoking in indoor areas of licensed venues in NSW. This process has been causing some problems for licensed premises where space is limited or where the only available outdoor space adjoins residential premises. The restrictions have led some premises to force smokers out onto footpaths and others to undergo expensive alterations and acoustic improvement measures in order to provide outdoor smoking areas.
As of 3 July 2006, smoking is only permitted in one room of a multi-room venue (if the combined total area of the rooms is greater than 100m2 the room must not exceed 25% of this area; if the combined total area is less than 100m2, the room must not exceed 50% of this area). In single-room venues, smoking is permitted in up to 25% of the area.
'Room' is defined to mean bar room, gaming machine room or recreation room only. Areas where food is served, toilets, lobbies, thoroughfares, dance floors, auditoriums and casino private gaming areas must be non-smoking and must be excluded from the calculation of combined total area of rooms. Smoking areas must be separated from non-smoking areas by the use of a partition or barrier or at least 1.5m.
From 2 July 2007, all enclosed areas of hotels, clubs and nightclubs that are open to the general public must be completely non-smoking. Smoking will only be permitted in outdoor areas.
To be eligible as an 'outdoor' area, at least 25% of the total notional ceiling and wall area must open directly to the outside. The total notional ceiling and wall area is the sum of:
- the total area of all wall surfaces: assuming the walls are continuous (all existing gaps are filled) and are of uniform height equal to the lowest wall; and
- the total floor area of the space between the walls if the walls were continuous.
This definition excludes any additional wall or ceiling space due to sloping ceilings. The government has refused to amend this definition, despite arguments from ClubsNSW and the Australian Hotels Association that this unfairly disadvantages smoking areas with pitched or angled roofs. Any openings provided in the additional surface area created by a sloping roof will therefore not count toward the 25% required by the regulations.
The 25% must comprise at least 10% gaps (being gaps directly to the outside, other than gaps caused by windows, doors or other moveable structures being open) and up to 15% locked-open doors and windows (being doors or windows that are permanently locked open whilst the premises are trading). Openings due to walls, doors or other moveable structures being open do not count for the purpose of this definition.
If an occupier intends to rely upon locked open doors or windows, the occupier will be guilty of an offence unless these doors and windows remain locked fully open for the entire hours of operation while smoking is permitted.
These numerical restrictions will inevitably act as a design constraint on any proposed development.
This new restriction, due to come into force in July 2007, is creating problems for venues which desire to continue to permit smoking. In anticipation of these pending restrictions, many clubs and pubs are already submitting development applications for outdoor smoking areas. For some premises, substantial internal alterations have been necessary in order to facilitate the use of these areas. ClubsNSW estimates that clubs will spend nearly $450 million on renovations in response to the new laws.
Outdoor smoking areas are also potentially problematic as they are a source of noise complaints from neighbouring residential premises. The Liquor Administration Board's after-midnight noise criteria requires that noise from licensed premises be inaudible in any habitable room of any residential premises between 12am and 7am. It is crucial for applicants to work closely with an acoustic expert to advise on how these outdoor areas can operate effectively next to these premises. Media reports suggest that some pub owners have resorted to purchasing adjoining residences in order to create an acoustic buffer.
Concern over potential health risks is shaping up to be a major issue with a number of councils that are faced with applications for outdoor smoking areas. North Sydney and Manly Councils have deferred consideration of all such applications pending legal advice regarding Council's potential liability for the drift of smoke from the outdoor smoking areas. Fairfield Council appears to harbour similar concerns. It has approved a number of applications subject to strict conditions banning non-smokers from the smoking area, requiring security guards to patrol the area to ensure that it is being used by smokers only and prohibiting bar service or the consumption of food in the area.
The total ban on indoor smoking poses several challenges for licensed premises. Operators who are considering lodging development applications for outdoor smoking areas need to be aware of the design constraints as well as acoustic and health issues associated with such a proposal and should consult with experts to have these matters addressed at an early stage in the process.
Applications For Extension Of Hours, Increase In Patron Numbers Or Provision Of Entertainment
Over the last 12 months, the Land and Environment Court has taken a more systematic approach in dealing with development applications concerning licensed premises. A series of standard questions (known as planning principles) will now be considered for applications involving increase in hours or patron numbers for licensed premises. This approach has placed a burden on operators to prove that they have managed the premises satisfactorily in the past and can do so if the application is approved. Previous management practices and police records relating to the premises are a major focus. Operators considering lodging an application should address management and security issues at a very early stage. It is a good idea to start tightening up management practices long before a development application is even lodged with council. Surveys that detail the behaviour of patrons in terms of transport and arrival and departure times may also need to be undertaken in advance.
Planning Principles
In Vinson v Randwick Council (2005) 141 LGERA 27, the Court set out a number of questions that will need to be addressed in assessing applications of this kind:
- What are the adverse impacts of the present trading hours, permitted number of patrons and permitted activities?
- What measures are in place to address those impacts and are those measures well documented?
- Have those measures been successful?
- What additional measures are proposed by the applicant or might otherwise be required?
Evidence of anti-social behaviour that is linked to the premises will be examined by the Court − this will usually come in the form of records such as the police COPS system, other police records and anecdotal evidence or diaries kept by local residents. Depending on the location and nature of the premises, these records will usually detail noise from people on or leaving the premises, its plant and equipment, noise from entertainment provided on the premises, incidents between patrons and security guards and incidents relating to the responsible service of alcohol.
The police local area command will also generally comment on a development application relating to a licensed premise.
The applicant may be able to respond to this type of evidence with well-kept incident books, or expert evidence from a town planning expert. If the application is appealed to the Land and Environment Court it is possible to test police evidence by subpoenaing police records relating to the premises and similar nearby premises. This information will help to place the history of the premises in context. It is important to note that many COPS incidents merely record business inspections by police or events only indirectly linked to the premises. Incidents occurring at the premises should be examined and categorised. In a recent matter where gadens lawyers represented the nightclub applicant, the Court commended the applicant for providing a table categorising the various incidents to the Court to aid its interpretation and understanding of the nature of the numerous incidents recorded against the club.
The measures that are currently in place to record and respond to complaints made by residents are relevant.
Also of relevance will be the responsibilities of security personnel and whether they have been successfully performing their duties, evidence that incident books are in order, evidence that a plan of management is in place and has been consistently adhered to, and evidence of other measures enforced by the licensee and management to control patrons and the responsible service of alcohol.
A plan of management for the premises should be included as part of any development application and should provide measures to deal with any anticipated impacts of the proposal. If increased hours or patron numbers are proposed, an Applicant should expect that Council may require additional security personnel. For applications for extended hours (particularly trading past 12am) or for use of the premises to provide entertainment, acoustic issues will be of fundamental importance. It will generally be necessary to implement measures to ameliorate acoustic impacts.
If the present management regime has been in operation for a relatively short period, or has been unsuccessful or not fully implemented, less reliance can be given to it by the Applicant than to a management regime which has succeeded in reducing antisocial behaviour.
Where the actual impact of the proposed use cannot be known until that use commences, trial periods are generally imposed in order to provide an Applicant with an opportunity to demonstrate that it is able to successfully operate in accordance with its consent and plan of management. In Khattar v Holroyd City Council, the Applicant sought to continue operating extended trial hours on a permanent basis. The previous plan of management had failed to successfully deal with acoustic and anti-social behaviour issues. A new plan of management had recently been implemented and a further trial period was imposed by the Court in order to assess whether this plan was effective during the peak summer months.
It is common for these types of applications to only be approved subject to conditions relating to security and acoustic issues.

Shakti Kapoor to play crazy professor
Actor Shakti Kapoor will be seen playing the role of a crazy professor on a quest to seek the meaning to life as well as death, in his upcoming film "Untouched Love".
Shakti Kapoor
According to a source, the 56-year-old will be seen as an insane person, who is experimenting with the cycle of life and tries to determine the birth and death of a person.
Apart from peeping into other's lives, the professor will even discover the day of his death. His whole plan turns into a fiasco after he becomes the focus of an intense media circus. At the same time, he tries to save the life of his son who is dying a painful death.
Shakti, who is known for his villainous and comical roles in films, is said to have liked the narration of "Untouched Love".
"He was very amused and had a hearty laugh. He found it to be different from the type of movies he has done in the past. The script prompted him to take up the project," the source said a statement.
Besides "Untouched Love", Shakti will also be seen in "Shimla Mirchi", "Kyaa Kool Hain Hum 3" and "Surkh Wala Love".

Library & Academy for Perfoming Arts Pupillensite
The city council of the Flemish city of Aalst has commissioned KAAN Architecten to design their new library, a largely new complex in the city centre which will also house the Academy for Performing Arts. The complex, situated on the corner of Oude Graanmarkt and Esplanadestraat, will be completed in 2018.
The preliminary design is a complex with lively, urban allure. Precisely because its plan is functionally driven, it achieves a sense of spatial freedom that enriches the experience of the building. The so-called Pupillenschool, with its grand presence and eventful history, is being used as a 'cornerstone' to anchor the new complex in the surrounding urban fabric and in the hearts of the people of Aalst.
The irregular street pattern of the historic centre of Aalst was a source of inspiration and forms the foundation for the new complex. At various points the streets converge erratically, leaving small open spaces – tiny public squares that dot the old city centre. By inserting a rectangular edifice loosely against the back and part of the side of the Pupillenschool, Aalst has gained two more of such small public squares: one serving as the entrance area for the complex and the other as terrace to the reading café.

In view of the current social and political situation that is happening in Catalonia, the entities that are part of PAX ROMANA Catalonia want to express:
1. Our concern and total rejection of the violent police actions of October 1, as well as the condemnation of the legal and criminal prosecution of persons and entities due to political ideology; in particular our condemnation to the imprisonment of social leaders, which have occurred in recent days, for these reasons.
2. Our firm commitment to the defense of human rights and basic freedoms such as ideological freedom, expression and political and secret political participation, which must be safeguarded by legality and the rule of law.
I am not a theologian nor a reproductive health expert. I am merely a lay woman, a member of the Catholic church in Sri Lanka, responding to recent articles published by members of my own religious community regarding the bill to expand safe abortion provisions. This article is written for the sake of balanced perspective and healthy, constructive debate within our community. We must take a step back and look at exactly whose lives we are protecting with our attitudes towards this bill.
Please find enclosed the Recommendation 2105 (2017) adopted by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe on 'Promoting integrity in governance to tackle political corruption'.
In its opinion on the draft law on anti-corruption courts in Ukraine adopted today, the European Commission for Democracy through Law (the "Venice Commission") said that many of the provisions of the draft law provide a good basis for the establishment of a high specialised anti-corruption court, but made several recommendations to reduce the risk that it could be considered unconstitutional. In order to dispel any doubts about the constitutionality of the legislative procedure, the Venice Commission invites the President of Ukraine to promptly submit his own draft law on anti-corruption courts – which should be based on the Venice Commission's recommendations. The current draft law (Draft Law No. 6011) thus needs to be withdrawn.
In an opinion adopted today, the European Commission for Democracy through Law (the "Venice Commission") assessed the extent to which Turkey's Emergency Decree Laws – passed in the wake of the failed 2016 coup attempt – include measures that go beyond what is permitted by international standards and the Turkish constitution.
As stated in previous opinions regarding these laws, the Venice Commission again acknowledges the need for certain extraordinary steps taken by Turkish authorities to face a dangerous armed conspiracy.
However, as highlighted in previous opinions – the Turkish authorities have interpreted these extraordinary powers too extensively.
Dear friends,
You will find attached below the text (in french only) of the conference which Mgr. Kratz made for the Conference of the Bishops of France with French committed to an international level.
After a brief introduction reminding the "miracle" of the creation of the European Union he asks several questions:
He ends finally by " some reflections on the COMECE " of which members reflect the essential diversity of the peoples and the cultures of Europe.
An effort to promote peace in Pakistan starts at Convent of Jesus and Mary –Lahore through the peace cranes which carry the message of peace, love, friendship, hope, light, laughter, kind deeds and a life time bond with human kind.
On, 21st September 2017, Matric Section commemorated International Day of Peace to create awareness on the importance of peace in this unrest and demanding world. Through this celebration children learnt to connect with themselves and discovered the power of peace. An angelic choir started off with the hymn "Make me an instrument of your peace" a prayer by St. Francis of Assisi – it is a part of daily routine to start our day. A projection of Peace Art Work and peace building activities were the anchor of this day. A candle was lit by Sr. Mari Puy RJM (Spain) Headmistress, Sr. Clara Hussain, Sr. Samina David along with the students, so the warmth instill in them and light always shine through these bright faces.
Latin America has an important history of cultural and ethnical diversity. Original people (or first Nations) were diverse before the European invasion and had developed important cultural alternatives in order to establish good relationships between different groups. That does not mean that everything was peace, but that they highly valorized differences and could learn ones from the others. For example, Andean people (nowadays from Peru, Bolivia, Equator, Colombia, Chile) build their civilization taking advantage of diversity instead of trying to standardize everything. In that way, they could develop agriculture in the very hard environmental conditions of the Andes.

On 10 October 2017, the Conference of INGOs, in collaboration with the International Federation of Action by Christians for the Abolition of Torture (FIACAT), one of its members, is organising a debate entitled: "Return of the death penalty in Europe: genuine threat or populist fiction?", aimed at strengthening and better coordinating the fight against the threat of a return of the death penalty in Europe.
The Conference of INGOs remains convinced that the death penalty is not the solution and that the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (ECHR) as well as its additional Protocols 6 and 13 should be defended in all circumstances.
Please register by 5 October 2017 using the online registration form. Participation is subject to the number of available places.
Following the publication of the legal opinion (n° NGO-POL/303/2017 [AIC]) of OSCE/ODIHR on the draft Act on the National Freedom Institute - Centre for the Development of Civil Society, the Conference of INGOs reiterates its concern in a letter to the Polish authorities

Letter from Ms Rurka to Ambassador Stanczyk following the publication of the legal opinion of OSCE/ODIHR (23 August 2017)
The Committee of Ministers today adopted guidelines aimed at promoting civil participation in political decision-making in the Council of Europe 47 member states.
The Committee of Ministers today adopted guidelines aimed at promoting civil participation in political decision-making in the Council of Europe 47 member states. At a time when democracy is challenged by diminishing trust of people towards politicians and elites in general, one of the prerequisites for guaranteeing democratic security is to ensure the participation of all individuals and societal groups in political processes and decision-making.
The new guidelines together with other existing texts such as Recommendation (2007)14 on the legal status of non-governmental organisations in Europe and the Code of Good Practice for Civil Participation in the Decision-Making Processnow form a solid basis for governments and civil society to work together to strengthen democracy.
The Council of Europe and civil society already interact through the Conference of INGOs which promotes participatory democracy and provides input to the decisions taken at inter-governmental level.
The preparation of this unique standard-setting instrument was recommended by Secretary General Jagland in his 2015 report on the State of Democracy, Human Rights and the Rule of Law in Europe.
The 30th World Day to Combat Extreme Poverty will take place on 17 October 2017.
The 30th World Day to Combat Extreme Poverty will take place on 17 October 2017. The Conference of INGOs will have the opportunity to exchange with the other Council of Europe institutions on the progress and challenges in policies aiming to eradicate extreme poverty in Europe. On this occasion, we will have the honour to welcome Ambassador Emil Ruffer, Chair of the Ministers' Deputies of the Council of Europe, Permanent Representative of the Czech Republic, Ms Gabriella Battaini-Dragoni, Deputy Secretary General of the Council of Europe and Guiseppe Palmisano, President of the European Committee of Social Rights. The information exchange will focus on the transversal actions undertaken by the Council of Europe institutions in the framework of the European Platform for Social Cohesion and in this perspective, invited speakers will discuss the access to social rights for adolescents and young people.
The Council of Europe 2016 Activity Report is now available. This year the Conference of INGOs, as an institution of the Council of Europe, has its own chapter which gives an overview of its main priorities and activities in 2016.
Chapter on the Conference of INGOs
The 2017 World Forum for Democracy will focus on the role of political parties and media in the context of rising populism. A growing disconnect between citizens and political elites and dramatic changes in the media ecosystem are a challenge for democracy as we know it. New political and media actors and practices are emerging, offering opportunities for direct, unmediated engagement of the public, unbound by ethical or institutional safeguards. How can pluralism, freedom of expression, and fair and evidence-based public debate be safeguarded in these new conditions? How to nourish political culture which embraces a long-term perspective and resists the excesses of populism?

(Re full text in attachment)
From Crux Staff July 23, 2017
On the heels of one controversial Vatican article alleging an "ecumenism of hate" between conservative Evangelicals and Catholics in America, another potential eyebrow-raiser emerged Saturday claiming that the "main obstacle" to implementing Pope Francis's vision is "closure, if not hostility" from "a good part of the clergy, at levels both high and low."
The term "high and low" suggests the author had in mind clergy ranging from senior bishops to ordinary parish priests. "The clergy is holding the people back, who should instead be accompanied in this extraordinary moment," said the article by Italian Father Giulio Cirignano, a native of Florence and a longtime Scripture scholar at the Theological Faculty of Central Italy.
Meeting from January 23rd to 27th, 2017 in Strasbourg, the Conference of INGOs of the Council of Europe brought together some 300 INGO delegates, experts, parliamentarians and permanent representatives of Council of Europe member states who discussed several major issues of concern today :
On November 251h and 261h of this year, 2016, the Joan Maragall Foundation - a Barcelona center dedicated to the dialogue between faith and culture - and Obra Social "La Caixa" organized the International Symposium "State and religion and their relationship in today's pluralistic democracies" at the Palau Macaya. This event completed the reflection that the Joan Maragall Board of Trustees has dedicated to a topic that has lately been the object of their concern.
With this symposium, the Joan Maragall Foundation and the Palau Macaya intend to encourage debate and reflection on today's challenges for religion and the emergence of religious pluralism in democratic societies today, especially in Europe.

Boris Alexeev, 17, of Athens recently was honored on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., and met with Sen. Saxby Chambliss, Rep. Max Burns and Sen. Zell Miller to discuss challenges gifted students face. Alexeev was one of only 16 students nationwide to be honored with a substantial Davidson Fellows award scholarship. He will receive a $25,000 scholarship for proving a theorem related to automata, the mathematical basis for the field of pattern matching, a theorem that appears in many computer science textbooks. By studying the minimization of automata, programs can be simplified, thereby allowing them to use less memory and operate faster. Alexeev's findings can be utilized in a range of fields, including DNA research and image recognition.

As I train for my first marathon, I've come to appreciate there is a LOT of potential gear to buy. In 2014, you don't just get a pair of shoes, lace them up and go for a run. You would be SO naïve to think it's that simple. During my first race waiting in my corral, I noticed people tricked out like you wouldn't believe. I wasn't sure if this was an early attempt at some odd Halloween costume or if runners have a secret Batman fetish! I honestly started to doubt myself and think – "Am I missing something? Do I need a camelback? Fuck, did I not hear they closed the aid stations already! Why do you need that many wristbands? Is it comfortable to wear that many water bottles on a belt? Those headphones seem very large. Are mine to small? Why is that person wearing sleeves? Do I need knee high socks?" Then you look over and see a 50 something in gear they wore in high school getting ready to run in shoes that look as if they do double time during gardening. SO CONFUSING!!!!!!! FUCK! Our corral is getting called, time to run!
I survived that 10 mile race and didn't need half the stuff I saw others wearing. I bet these same people NEVER follow airline carry on rules! It was then that I got an email asking if I'd like to demo some CEP Compression socks for the blog. I'd once worn calf sleeves from another compant – I thought they looked cool but I realized I looked like a douche and never wore them much after the first week or so and never felt any different.
I signed up for the CEP Compression challenge and sent in my calf size (Apparently and I've heard this oddly twice in the last week, I have big calves. This is a thing?) and color preference. My red socks arrived soon after and I was excited to try them on my next long run. Would they work for "real" or would my mind think they worked???
Putting the socks on the first time is a bit of a chore. You literally turn them inside out and slowly pull them over your foot and up your calf. They're very tight that first time and difficult to get on. The second go around is way easier and again you turn them inside out, best way to get them on actually. Once I had them on, I wasn't sure if I would be going for a run or ready to take a penalty kick in the World Cup!
The purpose of the socks is to promote blood flow in the calves and many other health benefits. You can check out their site for loads of technical, sports "sciencie", medical info. The socks are surprisingly cool and comfortable during any run, long or short, during hot summer days. The sock part, in the shoe, is actually really solid. I didn't get any blisters or have any added foot issues.
After the run, I literally pull them inside out, so they can air dry and be ready for the next run. After a couple runs and washes, they didn't loosen at all. The care for these are like any other sock even thought they're not normal socks.
But I had to honestly ask myself after a week, do these really work or am I mentally fooling myself in to the placebo affect to the tune of $60? I would say they do work and are helpful. Whether you wear them during your run or just for recovery, compression for me has worked. They fit and feel a lot better than the sleeves, which I think are more fashion choice. If you have circulation issues, you know these socks work, but for a normal guy going couch to marathon in 10 months these help. I'll be wearing them this Sunday for my first half marathon. I still won't over accessorize but a solid pair of compression running socks should help and hide my apparent "Fred Flintstone calves!"
Check out the wide range of CEP products and socks. They're not just for running – skiing, golf, cycling - they have socks or sleeves for everything in various performance levels. I had one friend say these worked great on long flights.

4T Gain-Cell with internal-feedback for ultra-low retention power at scaled CMOS nodes
Gain-Cell embedded DRAM (GC-eDRAM) has recently been recognized as a possible alternative to traditional SRAM. While GC-eDRAM inherently provides high-density, low-leakage, low-voltage, and 2-ported operation, its limited retention time requires periodic, power-hungry refresh cycles. This drawback is further enhanced at scaled technologies, where increased subthreshold leakage currents and decreased in-cell storage capacitances result in faster data deterioration. In this paper, we present a novel 4T GC-eDRAM bitcell that utilizes an internal feedback mechanism to significantly increase the data retention time in scaled CMOS technologies. A 2 kb memory macro was implemented in a low-power 65nm CMOS technology, displaying an over 3× improvement in retention time over the best previous publication at this node. The resulting array displays a nearly 5× reduction in retention power (despite the refresh power component) with a 40% reduction in bitcell area, as compared to a standard 6T SRAM.

Garen Build Guide by Flandre5carlet
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Garen Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Hello, my summoner name is Flandre5carlet and this is my Garen guide.
Garen is a very strong solo top AD bruiser that has the potential to easily crush opponents in the right hands. He is my main solo top and after playing him for quite some time, I decided to share my builds and playstyle with other players. Please bear with me, this is the first time I write a guide; I hope you have a good time reading it anyways, and please keep the comments for constructive criticism.
Summer 2012 update : Garen's early game is a bit less good than it used to be, but his late game is overall much much better. He is a much more viable pick now, if you're not against someone who can constantly harass you and break your passive.
Credits to jhoijhoi for the template, which you can find here and from which I used some parts.
02/09/12 : Modified some things according to the new Garen changes
12/05/12 : Replaced sunfire cape with frozen mallet in builds; explanations in Item section.
09/05/12 : Added Cho'Gath in the top match ups, added the fact that he falls off late game as a con.
04/05/12 : Added an alternative rune page and an items section; added Sion, Fiora, Wukong, Singed to top match ups.
03/05/12 : Guide added
Pros / Cons
+ Amazing base damage and scaling
+ Can be built AD, tank, or both
+ Huge burst especially in laning phase
+ Can be really tanky with his Courage
+ Amazing initiation with his Decisive Strike and his Judgment
+ Finishing off enemies with his Demacian Justice
+ Great sustain in lane with Perseverance
- Only CC is a silence
- Can be kited quite easily
- Can KS allies easily with Demacian Justice
- Falls off late game.
A standard 21/9/0 solo top with extra resistance at early game thanks to Veteran's Scars, and high offense with armor pen and damage.
This setup allows me to recall faster with the Improved recall, allowing me to go back to base at times where I could not if I didn't have this mastery; 6 points in defense for early game slightly higher resistance, and 22 in offense are self explanatory.
- Greater Quintessence of Attack Damage: Gives you the little early game boost you need.
- greater mark of desolation: Combined with the item build and masteries, this will allow you to have a huge armor penetration to wreck low armor enemies or deal high damage to high armor enemies.
- Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist: Adds to your late game magic tankiness.
- Greater Seal of Armor: Adds a lot to your early game resistance in solo top.
Other possible rune pages :
Greater Mark of Attack Damage
Greater Seal of Armor
Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist
Greater Quintessence of Attack Damage
- Greater Quintessence of Attack Damage: Gives you the little early game boost you need.
- Greater Mark of Attack Damage: This combined with the above makes your early game AD HUGE, giving you really easy kills at levels 1-6 on unsuspecting enemies.
- Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist: Adds to your late game magic tankiness.
- Greater Seal of Armor: Adds a lot to your early game resistance in solo top.
Summoner Spells
IGNITE: One of the most useful summoner spells for Garen as it allows you to add up more damage to your burst before using your ultimate; also allows you to secure kills,
FLASH: For escape, initiation, closing up with an enemy, etc... Flash is always good to have.
Not really...
Lol yes you need mana, totally.
Don't really need it, in my opinion. You'd be better off with and to escape or secure kills.
Can work instead of , but you've got your . Grab it if nobody on your team has it though and/or your team has no CC.
Not in the game anymore.
I don't really play Dominion.
A worthy substitute to , combined with his ; although, I would still prefer due to going over walls and gaping the distance instantly. My personal tastes though.
If you want. Don't forget the mastery that goes with it if you use it. And if you use it, I would run / OR / if you prefer this one; not / because you'd have no escape ability then.
Eh... It's just annoying for the enemy solo top.
Not in the game anymore.
Yeah, no.
You're not jungling.
If you want to recall and get back in lane instantly; coupled with flash.
Abilities Explanations
Passive: Perseverance
Garen regenerates 0.5% of his maximum health per second after not receiving damage for 9 seconds. The regenerative state will stop if Garen receives damage from any source other than lane minions.
A great passive that allows you to have a strong sustain during the laning phase, provided you don't get hit by minions. To use it to its fullest, standing at a safe distance behind your own minions will prevent the enemy minions from targeting you (unless you hit the enemy champion). You can also stay in the bush.
Try to keep it up when your health is not full so as to remain in lane as long as you can.
Note : minions don't trigger it, but champions spells such as an AoE slow that does no damage will stop it, even if the description only states "takes damage".
Q: Decisive Strike
Garen removes all slows on him and gains 35% movement speed for 1.5 / 2.25 / 3 / 3.75 / 4.5 seconds. His next melee attack within 4.5 seconds will deal 30 / 55 / 80 / 105 / 130 (+1.4 per attack damage) physical damage and silence his target for 2.5 seconds. This attack can critically strike.
Cooldown 8 seconds
The only CC that Garen has, but damn it does hit hard. Silencing right before your will prevent an enemy like or to dash away from you, forcing them to take full damage from your spin if they can't juke you.
Interesting fact: The speed boost remains even after you hit an enemy with the silence, so you will also have a speed boost during your if you silence the enemy before you start spinning.
+ will be your standard harass in lane. If you can land your on the enemy champion, immediately start your spin and try to stay near them for its entire duration, unless they are too close to the tower.
If you can't hit them with your , just use it on a minion. Better not get the bonus damage to waste.
Also do not forget to use it when you are slowed and need to escape as it removes all slows when casted. Due to that, it can get rid of an unwanted exhaust and allow you to escape to safety. Keep that in mind when being chased by someone who can slow you.
W: Courage
(Passive): Garen's armor and magic resistance are permanently increased by 20%.
(Active): Garen places a defensive shield on himself, decreasing all damage taken by 30% and reducing the duration of crowd control by 30% for 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 seconds.
Cooldown 24 / 23 / 22 / 21 / 20 seconds
Garen's tanky spell. Grabbing a point early in this allows you to farm the passive while you get last hits in lane, allowing you to get extra tanky without having to buy defensive items. The active is also great if you think you're gonna take a little too much damage at some point, or to tank a tower, etc...
The passive doesn't need to be maxed anymore since it's a permanent % bonus. Maxing this spell is less useful than maxing your Q or your E because the damage or duration of speed boost they give are more beneficial, in my opinion, than the longer protection on this spell. The passive doesn't increase with each rank.
E: Judgment
Garen rapidly spins his sword around his body for 3 seconds dealing 20 / 45 / 70 / 95 / 120 (+0.7 / 0.8 / 0.9 / 1.0/ 1.1 total Attack Damage) physical damage to nearby enemies every half second. Garen can deactivate Judgement early by activating the ability again after 0.5 seconds. Garen cannot use Decisive Strike or Demacian Justice while Judgement is in effect. Damage to minions and neutral monsters is reduced by 25%. Garen ignores unit collision while spinning, but takes a 20% movement speed penalty when passing through minions.
Cooldown 13/12/11/10/9 seconds
Range 330
The (in?)famous "Spin to win". A powerful attack if you can manage to keep the enemy in the spin for its entire duration. Each tick of the spin can also crit, hence why the 'troll' build described in the Item Builds section can actually work really well.
Also a great farming skill once it's levelled up, just stand in the middle of minions and spin, and watch as you earn gold and XP by killing the entire wave.
R: Demacian Justice
Garen calls upon the might of Demacia to attempt to execute an enemy champion, dealing 175 / 350 / 525 damage plus 1 damage for every 3.5 / 3 / 2.5 health they are missing.
Cooldown 160 / 120 / 80 seconds
Range 400
Garen's finishing move, Demacian Justice. The Flying Sword of GG that will strike an enemy down if their health bar looks at about 30%. Once you hit level 6, you can pretty much burst any not-too-tanky champion down with a →(+ )→.
It is an execution ult, so do not use it at the start of a fight; rather, save it for when the enemy is weakened. It also deals magic damage and not physical, so armor penetration won't help it.
It also takes a little bit of time to get used to the right timing at which your ult will kill someone. After playing a few games with Garen you'll get the hang of it : the best moment is when the life bar of the enemy looks like it is at about 30%.
Skill Sequence
The ult is maxed whenever possible for obvious reasons; the spin is your main source of damage so you will want to max it first. Evening out between your Q and W will allow you to get better bonuses from both skills at the same time. It's my personal preference though.
Firstly, boots.
I personally go for Boots of Swiftness because combined with your , they give you a huge speed boost to close gaps with the enemy. Those are my personal favourite boots on Garen, but you can have several alternatives :
Mercury's Treads : Gives you MR and CC reduction if you face off an AP or CC heavy team; also helpful if you just want to be tankier instead of faster.
Ninja Tabi : Useful in a team with several AD champions, like for example Ashe and Tryndamere.
Ionian Boots of Lucidity : I don't personally like these boots on Garen, but since he's really cooldown reliant, I can see them working.
Now about my build order.
Starting x3 is my personal preference to remain in lane more; if you go with the AD rune page instead of armor pen, you can start with a Doran's Blade to have even more early game damage.
I get an early Last Whisper because of reasons explained in the dedicated section.
After that, you don't need much damage due to ignoring a high part of the enemy's armor. I use this time to get a truckload of HP by getting Warmog's Armor and Frozen Mallet.
You can go for either or Sunfire Cape depending on your needs and your personal preference; allows you to chase forever due to the slow as well as synergising better with Atma's Impaler; icon=sunfire cape gives you more armor and a nice AoE damage that will add up with your spin.
That will make you reach a little above 4K HP, which will synergise really well with the Atma's Impaler you should get after those. Force of Nature comes after to top off the rest of your resistances and be an awesome tanky damage dealer.
The order in which you get the last items depends on the enemy team. If their AP is dealing too much damage, you can get before . If their AD is fed, you can replace with Thornmail.
The build I described above is my regular build against an average team comp with a solo top bruiser, an AP mid and an AD/support bot.
Crit chance on Garen? BUT WHY ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)
Why? Because it works.
To understand, you need to first get how works. The way the description says it isn't very clear.
Basically, the description tells you the damage this skill does every second; in game, the skill has a tick every half second. Now imagine the description says 210(+100), which equals 310 in 1 second, you will do 155 damage every half second.
The crit chance doesn't really increase the damage per se; basically, every one second damage has a chance to crit. So if a tick crits, the second tick will crit too. I hope I'm clear enough by explaining this.
So pretty much, if you have 30% crit chance, when you start , you have 30% chance every second to crit for 2 0.5 seconds ticks.
Last Whisper? So early? BUT WHY ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)
Why? Because, again, it works.
Most of the time, the enemy solo top will quickly start grabbing a or even a to counter your high damage; that's where your armor pen comes in. After a few calculations, I personally think that grabbing early, combined with armor pen red runes, will totally obliterate the enemy's armor. And a direct hit to the enemy's HP is better than a bigger hit against a huge armor.
Now let's say the enemy has 75 armor.
You immediately remove 21 to that due to the runes and masteries. We're now already down to 54. Now remove the 40% provided by . Congratulations, your enemy went from 75 to 32,4 armor.
Now, imagine the enemy got an early (and/or he's , or something) and he has 170 armor.
Again, immediately remove 21 to this and you fall down to 149. Okay, you may say that's still a high amount of armor. Now remove 40% and you fall down to 89.4 armor.
After these explanations, I hope you understand why I go for early armor pen. You can WRECK your opponents' tries to defend themselves and get tanky while they try to get tanky too; you'll still do a hell of a lot of damage while getting harder and harder to kill.
Top Match ups
Easily won :
Once she is silenced, all she can do is auto-attack you or run; unless she lands the stun on you right before you silence her, in which case she can dash away. Otherwise you can just harass her easily and deny her quite hard.
Even when she will hit level 6, she won't be able to burst you down. Harass her if she tries to last hit with autoattacks; she'll be forced to last hit with her Q which will make her lose a lot of gold.
Everytime you'll , he'll try to use his dodge to take it; avoid hitting him during that time, then if you can try to land the hit on him; if you silence him you'll be able to and he won't be able to jump to a minion.
You can out-harass her so much it's not even funny. When you rush to her with your she will usually stun you to leave safely. But she can't harass you and even if she does, you have your passive anyway. She can only last hit with her dash move (which is risky if you're here) or autoattacks (which is risky if you're here). So you can deny her easily.
You can deny him early game and prevent him from farming his Q. Will help a lot later in the game provided you don't let him free farm afterwards. If he slows you, will get rid of it.
leesin He can harass you with his Q, but if he TRIES to kick you you can just then while he can't shield away. Stand behind your minions so he can't land a Q, and your passive will sustain you.
His shield isn't worth much early game, your will get rid of it and your will chip down his HP. He won't have spell vamp unless he has runes early game, so you can harass him easily like that. He can't build up his shield while you burst him down because of your silence. Overall easy lane.
He is not much of a problem at top. The most he can do is fling you when you get too close for your , at which point you can just silence him and him. Just don't stay in his poison too much.
Average lane :
He can't burst you down, but his passive is quite annoying because even silenced he will still snare you. If he's not a bad player, you won't be able to get a combo on him. It's p
retty much a tie, and depends on jungler ganks.
He can harass or last hit with his Q, but he can't really get away from you if you silence him. He's not an easy win because if he crits on you he can still hurt you a lot early game, but he's not a loss either. It'll come down to individual skill.
His sustain can get quite annoying, and he'll use his blood pool to get away if you try to him. If you can surprise him you can burst him down. Once level 6 you can just and into an . Wait for him to use his bloodpool (he most likely will when your silence is done), then .
He has sustain and is tanky, but you have more sustain and can harass him quite a lot. Kind of a tie lane there, except if the Shen is bad. Easy win then.
Tie lane, his shield will annoy you and he can get away with his E + Q. Just farm, get last hits, harass him if you can, try to get successful ganks on him.
If you try to he'll try to cleaver you, but if he's silenced he'll be forced to take your full spin. His passive is the same as you but lower regen (and doesn't interrupt when hit). He'll be annoying when he reaches level 6 due to his ult, but before that he's not hard.
He can't true damage you if he's silenced. , then . If he didn't true damage you before being silenced, start spinning and then get back before it's over so he's not in range. If he did true damage you, get your whole spin on him.
His passive will prevent you from bursting him down unless you use your to reduce the heal. Just wait for his passive to be triggered then if you can burst him down.
Before he's level 6, his sustain is quite bad. You can use this time to deny him the farm he needs for his E. If he is going AP, watch out for his stun + shield combo that can deal a lot of damage. If he is going AD, he'll be a piece of cake.
Her Riposte skill is on a higher cooldown than your . Even if she parries it, you will be able to hit her with it before her Riposte is off cooldown. If she tries to face you, you will and she will have lost more HP than you. Harass her to deny her HP regen from her E. Care for her ult at level 6.
He will use his decoy to try and avoid your . He will try to use his dash move to harass you. The problem is he has mana and he will quickly be out of it. So if he uses his dash+decoy combo too much, you can get him easily when he is out of mana. An overally easy solo top match up.
He will most likely silence you right before your hits him so you won't be able to right after hitting him; no big deal though, you can harass him more than he can harass you. Dodge his ground spell thing, watch out for his passive spikes that can hit you when he hits minions, and that will delay your . Care for his ult at level 6 if you are low on health.
Annoying (but not necessarily lost) lane :
His sustain is quite annoying, and it's quite hard to burst him down. Play safe against him, because in an 1v1 situation he can out-sustain you and force you to run away. If you manage to burst him down, he can still kill you with his ult and it won't be worth it.
His sustain will annoy you, and his Q can hurt you a lot due to working with a % of your HP. You can burst him down at level 6, but before that it will be an annoying lane for you. Just last hit and play safe.
He can harass you a lot and get away if you try to to him. If you can't land your silence he'll just get away with his light bolt thing, so the best is to try to last hit and wait for eventual ganks. If you're level 6 you can try a and into an and an extended range .
Q Q Q FACEROLL FACEROLL FACEROLL. Ryze is annoying and he can harass so much, and build tanky he'll still do damage... Play safe, wait for ganks.
He can harass a lot with his Q (it does a lot of damage if he maxes it and/or goes AP), and his passive will almost absorb your full combo. Not much you can do to harass him and he can out harass you easily. Play safe.
His blind will piss you off because it makes your miss a lot. His poison is annoying and will delay your .
Really hard to win, most likely lost lane:
He'll shield when you try to burst him, stun you and damage you, if you try to he has his speed boost to get away, etc... He's just an overall really annoying lane.
His passive will absorb your (the silence will still work though), and then he'll stun you and use his fast attack thingy to chip down your HP. He can harass you with his spear, etc... You'll have to play really safe there.
Early Game
Early game is where you will truly shine and have easy opportunities to get a lot of kills. Once you got your 2
and your
, you can already start harassing by using and running toward your enemy; either it scares them away, or they take it like a man and it gives you the opportunity to .
Try not to recall until you have enough for at least (if you started with ) or (if you started with x3).
If you didn't manage to get a kill before level 6, you surely will once you get level 6. Grab your and get ready. If the enemy gets too close, , followed by and . You just got a kill. Don't forget to use your if you don't tihnk you'll deal enough damage for a kill.
Garen is an easy lane win because of how strong his sustain is as well as his damage. Don't forget to sight ward your bush, last hit as many minions as you can and deny your opponent.
Usually, a followed by running toward them will scare them away from the XP they get by your dying minions.
Mid Game
By now you should have taken down your lane's turret down, and possibly the other lanes. Now you might want to go roaming and gank any enemy champion you can; a
+ is an easy surprise gank on an unsuspecting champion : they'll be suddenly silenced and you'll be in their face for your full combo. Grab dragon when he's up, grab buff camps (and enemy buff camps if it's not too risky). Push other lanes that need help, protect your own lane from pushes... There's a lot to do during this part of the game.
By now you should already have your , and should be able to deal quite a lot of damage against even tanky champions. Also keep in mind... You're naturally tanky yourself, so once you got your on your way to warmog'sarmor, you can already start manning up and rushing in (provided you're not 1v5 and your team is backing you up) to initiate fights. If they focus you, still win because your carries are safe. If they don't focus you, you'll and deal a lot of damage anyway.
Late Game
By now you should have reached your
; you should have almost 200 armor and 100 magic resist, as well as almost 4000HP thanks to your 's passive,
. Manning up to initiate is not a problem as you can just then
onto their AP or AD carry to unleash all your mighty combo on him; your team should be backing you up too. Going for the AP is better due to your CC being a silence; it'll prevent them from doing anything for a good 2.5 seconds.
Grab baron if you're confident the enemy team will not be able to interrupt you (for example, you got an inhibitor down). Ward the bushes and behind the Baron's "arena" so their jungler can't try to steal. If they try to prevent you from getting it initiate the fight on them.
Late game Garen presumably falls off compared to his early/mid game, but with a good build you will still be really tanky while still dealing decent damage, especially thanks to your armor pen.
Team Fights
As Garen, you shouldn't fear to run face first into a teamfight. Being quite tanky, if they decide to focus you, it'll take them long enough to take you down that your own team will have killed 2-3 of them. Otherwise, you should be tanky enough so as to kill your main target : their AP or AD carry. Your goals are to take down the squishy champions, and optionally, deal damage to their whole team with your .
With the proper build, you can get your full combo on a squishy before being even close to dying. Don't forget to activate your , it helps a lot. Save your to secure kills or get enemies who would have escaped otherwise.
[DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE] Extended range on Demacian Justice? **** yeah!
There's a trick to get an extended range while using .
Basically, you have to cast the ult while in the middle of your , and not do ANY action afterwards. (No movement, no , etc...) The way the game works, the skill will be queued to be used right after your spin ends; if the enemy flashes away during that time, your ult will still hit them, even if you lost sight of them due to a bush or a wall (provided they are within your sight radius).
Thus, start your spin, click in the general direction your enemy is walking, cast the ult, wait. If your spin did enough damage, enjoy the free long range kill and possibly their wasted flash.
Final Comments
Well, this is the end of my Garen guide.

We believe the diverse strengths and abilities of our medical staff and our commitment to teamwork are instrumental to the effective treatment of patients with kidney disease. Having spent their careers studying, treating, and understanding the functioning of the kidney, as well as the network of subtle interactions between the kidney and the rest of the body, our physicians are able to precisely assess the evolving condition of the patient.
The diversity of our team enables us to satisfy every aspect of care for our patients. Our team includes eight transplant nephrologists, world-recognized surgeons, a donor nephrologist, transplant nurse coordinators, social workers, a pharmacist, and other medical professionals.
Highlighted below are key members of the team who work closely together on a daily basis to provide specialized care for our patients.
Leadership Team
Surgical Director
Stefan G. Tullius, MD, PhD, FACS, is the Chief of the Division of Transplant Surgery, Co-Director of the Schuster Transplant Center, and a Professor of Surgery at Harvard Medical School.

Dr. Sheridan serves as our donor nephrologist to evaluate potential living donors. Dr. Sheridan has clinical interests in acute and chronic kidney disease and fluid and electrolyte disorders. Research interests include cell-signaling pathways that underlie kidney injury.
Medical Specialists
BWH medical specialists provide the expertise vital to making transplantation a success. After transplantation and throughout long-term follow-up care, our specialists closely monitor the patient's progress and help determine an individualized medication program. Our specialists will make careful assessments of the body's reaction to the transplant and adjust the anti-rejection medications that truly make the transplant viable.
Steven Gabardi, PharmD, BCPS, FAST, FCCP, is a transplant pharmacist and an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. He also is the Director of the Organ Transplant Pharmacology Residency program. Board-certified as a pharmacotherapy specialist, Dr. Gabardi has published in several textbooks and peer-reviewed journals for medicine, surgery, and pharmacy. In his capacity as our medication expert, Dr. Gabardi plays a pivotal role in patient education and long-term medication management.
Physician Assistants
Nurse Coordinators and Social Workers
The specialized focus of our BWH surgical and medical staff is supplemented by the comprehensive expertise of our nurse coordinators and social workers. We believe that the deep personal bonds that develop between them and the patient are essential to their work and crucial to the overall success of the transplant program.
From the initial screening process to in-hospital preparation and education, and throughout long-term follow-up care, our nurse coordinators and social workers provide treatment, information, and, most importantly, close personal support. At any time, patients and their families can speak with someone who cares and someone who can immediately help, regardless of the issue or problem.

Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by Gonkutron3000, Jun 28, 2010.
Has anyone else noticed that shootme no longer works with unrooted evo?
UNREVOKED doesnt work on new update. so yes shootme doesnt work. Latest twitter from UNREVOKED is that by tonight a update maybe up.
ShootMe worked without unrEVOked. Now it actually needs root to work.
This really blows. Is there a workaround. Or am I going to be forced to root?
Not sure yet...hopefully shootme devs can figure something out.
you have to install atk which is a pain in the ass. not worth it..
From the dev's reply when I emailed him about it.
I'm not holding my breath on him fixing it for unrooted phones.
It's toast on mine as well...Must have root access!
I did not bother to check until I read this an indeed it does not work,I get a message saying that I need to be Root.This really suck.Other than that have not have any problems with any other apps or with my phones performance.
definitely not updating until unrevoked gets past this update, shootme is too awesome to lose
Its the Super User permissions. UNREVOKED has to update its app to allow this. Once that is done Shootme will work.
How about we compile a list of apps/tweaks/customizations that do not work after updating. This would help those that are thinking about updating and are unsure if they should or not. I haven't updated yet, so I'm hoping we can get a good list going here. So far I've heard the following not working:
Wallpaper removed
Wireless Tether
Shootme- must have root access now
How about what works too well, google talk refuses to die, like a zombie it just keeps coming back and eating my brains..I mean battery.
The android wallpapers are gone, but the one I was using is still on my screen.
just make gtalk not sign you in automatically
Swype is still working perfect for me
Swype works fine for me after the update.
Yeah thats the point, I've it set up like that for weeks, and those settings didnt change, but it keeps showing up in running apps...this keyboard kicks ass now though.
I had to go back in and uncheck this again after update.
swype works for me too.....
Swype doing fine. I uninstalled unrevoked figuring it may be updated. Have seen non impacts on the phone. (good or bad)
Did the keyboard change?
No just seems to have less lag...could be placebo at this point

LANVIEW (or similar) on Linux
I'm looking to buy one of these ASUS EEE PC 701 Intel Celeron Mobile CPU 512MB 4GB 7" WLAN Linux 24 months UK warranty(6 months warranty in Battery), collect and return within UK - Black - Ebuyer from ebuyer- 4GB hard drive with Linux pre-installed.
I basically want it to play about with on my home network. I have no room for another desktop, so I want to try controlling things from a laptop. We have this great program called LAN View 3 at work, which runs on a windows machine and can be used to remotly shut down, take control of a PC etc. I was wondering if there is a similar program for linux i could use- it would be to control linux and windows PC's.
While i'm asking about this laptop, i see they also do a 2gb version, so linux will squeeze into 2gb. Does Linux have as standard or can you get a program to reduce the size of the partitions so i could install windows 2000 and dual boot?
Thanks, Baxio

Virginia Dem: 'The Storm Will Throw Havoc Into the Race'
With Hurricane Sandy bearing down on the East Coast -- and early voters -- a Democratic senator in one affected state predicted this morning "the storm will throw havoc into the race."
Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), citing a new Washington Post poll showing a 51-47 edge for President Obama in Virginia, said on Fox News Sunday the storm may not affect his state as much because "we don't have as extensive early voting in Virginia as other states." Extended power outages could affect voting machines through Election Day, though.
Obama and Mitt Romney both canceled Virginia events because of the hurricane.
Obama called Sandy "a serious and big storm" in remarks at FEMA headquarters today, vowing to get states and municipalities whatever they need.
"We're going to cut through red tape. We're not going to get bogged down with a lot of rules," the president said. "We want to make sure that we are anticipating and leaning forward into making sure that we've got the best possible response to what is going to be a big and messy system."
The other swing-state senators on the show focused on what these critical voters will make of the candidates' policies heading into Nov. 6.
"As I drive around the victory centers, particularly yesterday, this issue of Benghazi is really bubbling up," said Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.). "People are demanding answers from this administration. I think it's going to have a big impact here in the state of Wisconsin."
Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.) noted an early voting rate of about 80 percent in his state.
"Governor Romney has three problems here in Colorado. We don't know whether it's moderate Mitt or 'me, too' Mitt or severely conservative Mitt that will serve as a president. He's been particularly unfriendly to Hispanics and Latinos," Udall charged. "And women in the state are pro-choice. They want to make their own health care decisions and the Republican Party has in effect said to women, we know what's best for you. We don't want you to make your own decisions. So, those are reasons that President Obama will carry Colorado."
Romney's celebrated debate practice partner referred to the policy pamphlet released last week by Obama, repacking what the president has been saying on the campaign trail.
"He has a glossy new brochure. I've actually looked at that brochure and as you know I played the role of Obama during the debate preps. And it's more of the same," Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) said. "I mean, you know, you can argue we need to do more of the same but it hasn't worked and hasn't worked by President Obama's own measurements."

The Australian Ducati rider, starting from pole, roared clear of the field to win the first race by more than three seconds from Japan's Noriyuki Haga on an Aprilia in second and third placed American Ben Bostrom, also on a Ducati.
In the second race, Bayliss fell behind to Haga and Bostrom early on but attacked shortly after the halfway point and, once he was ahead, there was no one capable of stopping him.
Meanwhile, Australia's defending Daytona 200 champion Mat Mladin was forced by injury to withdraw from yesterday's first American Superbike championship race of the year.
Mladin fell during Friday practice for the race and spent a day and a half in nearby Halifax Medical Centre after an operation to remove bone fragments and gravel from his deeply lacerated left elbow.
He returned to the Daytona International Speedway on Sunday morning and after completing one lap of the circuit, reluctantly withdrew from the race that he had won both last year and in 2000.
"My elbow wasn't that sore actually, but it was the fact that I didn't have enough strength to grip the bars that made me realise that it would be very difficult to take part in the race," Mladin said. "I guess all that it means now is that I'll be spending the next 15 rounds of the championship making up for the points that we've missed out on here today."
Mladin highsided from his Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R750 at the circuit's International Horseshoe chicane during Friday morning's final practice session. Before his accident, Mladin had set the sixth fastest time for the event.
His withdrawal from the race marked the first time that the three-time American AMA Superbike Champion had missed a race due to injury since he began racing there in 1996.
The next two championship rounds are at the new California Speedway, on April 6 and 7.

back to listingTooloom Falls
A great place to visit or go camping (Free) is Tooloom Falls which is a bushland picnic area and only a short drive Urbenville. If it is peace and quiet that you want then this is the place to go. This is a basic bush camping spot, with No facilities except for a composting toilet which is well maintained along with some basic BBQ facilities.But you must bring your own drinking water. Continue about 3kms SW from Urbenville and turn left onto Tooloom Creek Road and continue down the dirt access road. This is a very significant place for Githabul people. Swimming possible on the high side of the falls, although some go down on the low side of the falls to swim. The river can be muddy after rain. There are various fireplaces on site and the grounds are clean and tidy. Though this particular area is outside of the National park, it is still under the care of the National Parks and therefore Dogs are not allowed.
Tooloom Falls camping area
The beautiful Tooloom Falls (10 m high, 60 m wide) and usually have water flowing over them at most times of the year, are found next to Tooloom National Park, 6 km south of Urbenville via Urbenville–Koorelah Rd and Tooloom Falls Rd. Tooloom is thought to have evolved from an Aboriginal word meaning headlice – but don't let that put you off! The word Tooloom is corrupted from the Gidabal word Doolloomi, which means headlice, and it is said that these are found around the deep, potentially dangerous pool beneath the falls. In the gentle way that Aboriginals have with their children this was told to them to deter them from swimming there. It is also believed spirits live in the pool. Tooloom Falls is one of the most significant sites in Gidibal country and was declared an aboriginal place in 1977 under the National Park's and Wildlife Act.
Another nearby attraction: Bean Creek Falls
About 20 km from Urbenville, to the right, is a signposted side road, to Bean Creek Falls.1km down this road is a picnic area and a short walk will bring you to the scenic Bean Creek Falls. The falls give a spectacular view with the remnant rainforest creating a magnificent backdrop.
Urbenville Pioneer Cottage
In Urben St you will find the Pioneer Cottage and Historical Museum, situated in a building built of hoop pine for the Lamb family at Legume (39 km to the north-west by road) in 1892. It was relocated to its present site in 1977. The building has been restored. It has a high hipped roof, a bullnose verandah and timber battens. There are local historical displays relating to the town and district and the timber industry. The museum is open on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month or by appointment. Tel: (02) 6634 1254.

Whisky-ish Liquer Conquers Spokane
The Jagermeister no longer flows as freely as it once did. Across Spokane, fewer shot glasses of the stuff are being dropped into glasses of Red Bull and tossed in a single gulp down the gullets of hot-blooded twentysomethings. When the Jagerettes drive over from Seattle, as they still do from time to time, they find a city with less of an appetite for the product they sell, even if the market for undulating female hips continues unabated. Once a dominant liqueur in the area — and still dominant in much of the drinking world — local sales of Jagermeister are off 30 percent from last year, according to Young's Market, a liquor distributor. Bartenders, owners and distributors say the slowing of the river of Jager is not caused by temperance, nor by cost. The culprit, they say, is Fireball/Luke Baumgarten, Inlander. More here. (Young Kwak Inlander photo: A shot of Fireball lights up the bar top at NYNE)

Thales Awarded Collins Sonar Upgrade Design
The Minister for Defence Industry, the Hon Christopher Pyne MP, today announced that Thales Australia has been awarded a $100 million contract to design a major sonar system upgrade for Collins class submarines.
Minister Pyne said Thales Australia will engage other Australian-based companies including Sonartech Atlas and L3 Oceania, as well as suppliers from the United Kingdom (UK) and France to design the Collins sonar system upgrade.
"The sonar system upgrade will install improved sonar sensor arrays aboard each of the Collins submarines, as well as improved signal processing systems," Minister Pyne said.
"Under the contract Australian industry will play a key role in delivering leading edge sonar capability for Australian submarines."
"The Australian industry component of the contract to be led by Thales Australia is worth in the order of $50 million and will support around 50 Australian jobs in Sydney and Perth.
"This is a clear example of our commitment to building and harnessing the innovation potential of Australia's defence industry, as outlined in the 2016 Defence Industry Policy Statement," he said.
