General strike called by opposition affects DR Congo's main cities
A general strike called by the opposition to force Congolese President Joseph Kabila to share power has slowed business activities in the country's four biggest cities.
"We've followed the call ... because we are suffering greatly. Let him (Kabila) quit power, he has finished his mandate, we want no more of him," Mamie Biamba, a resident of the capital Kinshasa, told AFP on Monday.
The central square -- Place Victoria -- in the usually teeming city of more than 10 million people was almost empty in early morning, with police posted on key arteries.
The strike also hit the Democratic Republic of Congo's second city, Lubumbashi, as well as eastern Goma and the central cities of Mbuji-Mayi and Kananga. But it was business as usual in Kisangani in the northeast and Mbandaka in the northwest.
An umbrella alliance of parties, known as the Rassemblement (Rally), had urged people to stop work in protest at Kabila's failure to implement a power-sharing deal signed on December 31 and to appoint a prime minister from the opposition.
The president's constitutional mandate expired last year at the end of his second five-year term.
His unwillingness to enable elections and step down led to protests in September that left some 50 people dead.
At 8:00 am (0700 GMT), shops and service stations remained closed in Kinshasa and public transport was scarce, with people walking from their homes in eastern working-class districts to their workplaces in the city center.
The situation was similar in distant Lubumbashi, according to witnesses in the country's mining capital, about 1,570 kilometers southeast of Kinshasa.
"One shop in five is open," a resident told AFP, while a bank manager stated that work had slowed down and several of his staff had failed to show up.
"I was almost alone on the roads and I charged high fares," taxi driver Nyembo Muyumba said in Lubumbashi.
But some people voiced indifference to the strike call, which followed pressure on Kabila by the United Nations, the African Union and the European Union to abide by the December deal.
"We're not concerned by appeals from politicians. Our problem is to find something to feed our children, send them to school," said Albertine Bulanga, who sells maize in a Kingasani market.
"Life has become unbearable for the little people like us while they (the politicians) have cushy lives."

BOSTON Kyle Weiland, the Red Sox rookie right-hander who had just 19 major-league innings heading into game one of Mondays doubleheader against the lowly Orioles, was giventhe unenviable task of being asked to do what veteran starting pitchers have been unable to do: Stop the September bleeding.
But like most of the other Sox pitchers this month, Weiland was unable to put a stop to the September collapse the Sox are in. After falling, 6-5, to the Os who entered the game with the second-worst record in the American League and third-worst overall the Sox are now just 4-14 this month. In their last 15 games they have suffered six one-run losses.
Their once comfortable lead over the Rays for the wild card is down to just 1 games. The Sox entered September with an AL-best record of 83-52 and a 1 -game lead over the Yankees. They now trail New York, who beat the Twins Monday afternoon, by 5 games for the division lead.
In 18 games this month, starting pitchers have gone just 86 innings, averaging less than five innings a game. They have given up 68 runs (61 earned) on 100 hits and 43 walks with 75 strikeouts and 13 home runs. The starters have posted a combined 6.38 ERA while pitching just three quality starts.
Weiland, who was returning to the mound on short rest after throwing 61 pitches in Thursdays loss to the Rays, took the loss, dropping his record to 0-3 with a 7.99 ERA. He went 4 23 innings, giving up six runs (five earned) on five hits and two walks with five strikeouts. The three home runs he gave up were one shy of the Orioles single-game high this season. He left with the Sox trailing, 6-2.
Weiland went through the first seven batters in the Orioles lineup smoothly with four strikeouts, not allowing a runner on base. But when left fielder Darnell McDonald lost two consecutive fly balls in the sun, the game quickly unraveled for Weiland.
Kyle started out really keeping his pitches down, with movement, missing some bats, manager Terry Francona said. Then the second time through the order we didnt help him because we lost a ball, then Mac couldnt catch the second one. Then he got up with too many pitches, fastball, breaking ball. Couple of them left the park.
So its kind of a different once through the order than the second time through the order.
Weiland said the two balls lost in the sun, putting runners on second and third with one out, did not cause him to lose focus.
No,he said. Thats stuff that I kind of expect in the game of baseball. Some things are going to go your way, some things arent. You cant help that the sun is right behind home plate, and obviously both sides are having trouble with it. So you cant think about that stuff. Its my job to go back out there when stuff like that happens and pick up my teammates because nine times out of 10 theyre going to pick me up more than Im going to pick them up. So its definitely something that pitchers try to really step up when stuff like that happens topick up guys because theyre saving us all the time.
But the loss the Sox first to the Os at Fenway this season -- can hardly be blamed on Weiland
Darnell McDonald was in left field, a late addition because Carl Crawford was scratched shortly before game time with a stiff neck. He had the unfortunate luck of trying to field the two balls in the sun. The first, a Nolan Reimold drive was ruled a hit, despite falling out of McDonalds glove. The next batter, Josh Bell, was given a two-base error. Both runners eventually scored in the inning, giving the Os a 2-0 lead.
The first one was a tough sun, McDonald said. I lost it in the sun. I saw it off the bat and after that I didnt see it. The second one I got there and took my eye off it at the last minute and didn't make the play. Its a situation where I feel terrible putting my team in the hole like that. But you got to bounce back and play the game. It was a tough day for me. It was terrible out there today. Youre paid to play baseball. I was ready. It was just one of them days whereI didnt make the plays.
McDonald led off the bottom of the third with a home run, his sixth of the season, cutting the Sox deficit in half. But the bats could not get the job done today. The batters, despite 12 hits in the game, were just 2-for-8 with runners in scoring position. The Sox had an opportunity to add another run in their two-run fifth when David Ortizs drive down the right field line appeared to be fair but was ruled foul. When Ortiz eventually flied out to center, Dustin Pedroia was stranded on third base, his third triple of the season.
Very frustrating, Ortiz said. Nothing we can do but come back the second game and try to hit the ball fair. Its a mistake that happened. You got to deal with it.
I guess the reason why we have umpires down the line is so they can read the ball better because from distance sometimes it gives you some trouble and . . . that reviewing thing I think it was good for home runs and things like that. But I guess a situation like what happened today you should give it a shot because were trying to win a baseball game and its not the right call.
But there was plenty of blame to go around.
We need to pitch better, we need to hit better, we need to play better D, Pedroia said. We need to do everything better, so when youre losing you can point fingers at everybody. We just got to go out there and play hard and play winning baseball. We do that, theres not a team in the world that can beat us. So we got to play better.

Pantheon Build Guide by Hewhoisnamed
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.
Pantheon 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.
Quick synapsis of how to play
You will start out by getting your boots. start with the spear throw so u can do some early harrasement. Then try to lane with a nidallee and see how much you can harass together or just run with another ranged to keep your enemy sweating. then at level two youll want the jump stun to let your counterparts tear your opponent apart then chase with the spear throw. The rest is pretty much elementary.Remember to not waste your grand skyfall by missing. aim where the person might run so you can ensure a hit. i hope this guide guides you to victory. Enjoy:)
Why i picked the items i did
i start out with the boots because it will help you get to the begining place youd like to be at faster than the opposition. Then i picked the beserkers greaves for the attack speed as a means to get your shield up and protecting your scrawny hide. Then i went for the Ghostblade as a means to boost your attack (to make your spear and heartseeker better) and for the attack speed. (same reason as before) and the active isnt half bad either. Then after you have a little speed for ya you wanna get the last whisper because not only is the attack sweet the armor pen will get you passed that pesky armor rating that tries to keep your spear off its mark! then naturally youll want the black cleaver! attack speed and the constant reduction of armor will turn that tanky garen into a squishy worm! Then you wanna invest into some big guns. or big swords rather, the infinity edge is the icing on this bloody cake. The huge attack bonus plus the crit increase PLUS 50% extra crit damage! IT will ensure you that no one shall escape you (either high or low health) then just to top it all off an atmas impaler for damage, addionial crit chance and a little extra attack damage. i hope theese items guide you to victory!
The ability placement.
Alrite so we've covered items and as you've noticed ive gotten tons of Attack power. This helps boost my spear shot and heartseeker strike. the spear shot is buffed early on so you can nail those clowns that try to run away (looking at you shaco) The Aegis is chosen second and not buffed for a while because you'll only need it to stun. third comes the spear shot again... getting evermore powerful. then the heartseeker. heartseeker is relativly weak but the damage doubles against champions so it kinda evens out. then you bounce between grand skyfall, spear shot and heartseeker strike until your forced to level the aegis again. i hope theese abilities guide you to victory!
The offense tree is of course the primary choice for someone of pantheons stature! youll want all the attack speed and armor pen and crit chance and crit damage and extra damage that the tree has to offer. but dont waste your time with havoc... at max a 1.5% damage bonus? worthless... why? because if i did a grand skyfall that only does 1000 damage then the havoc will boost it up to a devastating 1010...... 10 damage is puny and pantheon isnt a puny champion save the puny for the yordles! you'll notice that that i have vampirism... only because i needed to put points into somthing right? lol.
the Defense tree is a solid secondary tree to select. on it i have chosen the armor and resist because pantheon wont have much armor thru the match. and the health regen to make him a little more independant and so you dont have to waste time recalling as often.(even though its not that big of a deal because of the grand skyfall... DYNAMIC ENTRY!!!) i hope theese masteries guide you to victory!
Summoner spells
Down to the summoner spells!
I choose ignite and surge for obvious reasons. if used correctly then you will almost always get the first kill! extra attack speed and AP mixed with a pretty powerful DOT will peg down any champion. But if you wanted to run with other spells such as....... nevermind just go surge and ignite:) i hope theese spells guide you to victory!
The runes ive chosen are to start him off the best possible way.
Armor pen for obvious reasons. strength for the early spear boost, cooldown reduction so you can get grand skyfall out faster, and addiontal strength.... i hope theese runes guide you to victory!

CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) - A judge has formally sentenced Dylann Roof to death for killing nine black worshippers in a racist massacre at a Charleston church.
U.S. Judge Richard Gergel handed down the sentence Wednesday at a hearing to affirm the jury's decision on the death penalty for the 22-year-old avowed white supremacist. Gergel couldn't change the jury's decision.
Roof showed no reaction as he has through almost all of the federal hate crimes trial. He also did not choose to speak Wednesday and kept a blank face as Gergel sentenced him.
More than 30 family members of the victims at Emanuel AME church spoke during the hearing. Some were angry, others forgiving. But they all said Roof failed at his goal to further divide blacks and whites.

When a rogue late season snow storm cuts off the town of Colby, Connecticut, the weather proves to be the least of problems for the stranded locals. Bodies are turning up in the snow, victims of ritual murder and something far worse. Joining forces with an enigmatic occult crime expert, police detective Jack Glazier finds himself in a race against time, for as the snow rises, so does the body count....and the bizarre goes off the charts. A cult has come to Colby, one with the keys needed to unleash an unspeakable horror upon the small town...and the world.
A fast paced horror/police procedural, populated with well rounded characters, an intriguing new spin on Lovecraftian style Mythos building, and enough chills to cut your air conditioning bills, SanGiovanni's latest delivers.
Highly recommended.
This was an eARC from Netgalley.
Expected publication: September 27th 2016 by Kensington Books/Lyrical Underground
This creature feature novel should come with an extra large bucket of popcorn....recalling the Saturday afternoon monster movies of my youth, with a healthy dash of "Die Hard" style mayhem thrown in. Pure, escapist fun.
When the legendary Jersey Devil returns to it's old stomping grounds, the Pine Barrens of New Jersey, all Hell breaks loose, as the once elusive creature is now hunting....and it may not be alone.
Only the Willet clan, all four generations of them, dare to challenge the Devil's reign of terror, to end a family curse. And the Willets are ready for war. Joined by a cryptozoologist, they head into the Pine Barrens armed to the teeth to face a legend.
And that may just be exactly where it wants them.
Hunter Shea brings his own spin to the Beast of the Barrens, expanding on the original legend with terrifying results, while peopling his novel with characters that are truly characters.
Non-stop, fast paced fun from the first page to the last.
Highly recommended.
Expected publication: August 30th 2016 by Pinnacle

Cast a Cold Eye is a perfect storm of a novel, bringing together atmosphere, location and mystery in one of the finest ghost stories it has been my pleasure to read.
An American author travels to a remote village in Ireland to gather background for a book on the Irish Famine, and discovers that the past is closer than he thinks.....and it does not lie quietly.
A beautifully constructed example of literary ghost story that doesn't burn slowly....it creeps up on you like the mists off the moors, slow and relentless, running chill fingers down the back of your neck. The suspense builds just as slowly, ratcheting up the reader's unease to the breaking point.
Kudos to Valancourt Books for bringing this masterwork by an underappreciated author back into print.
Highly recommended.
Greg Gifune takes his signature psychological horror into a place where dark urban fantasy meets science fiction in his latest book.....where a man whose job it is to track and terminate runners who dare to follow a dream that speaks of a Promised Land far from the City....a man who now must track down his wife before another bountyhunter reaches her first, across a landscape that is at turns hallucinatory and nightmarish, a no man's land of no-when and never-where....
This one reminded me of BLADE RUNNER, but if you cornered me, I couldn't tell you why beyond it does.
Highly recommended for Gifune fans looking for something completely different.
The debut novel of horror from the shared pen of Michelle Garza and Melissa Lason, known collectively as "The Sisters of Slaughter", is an exuberantly over the top gorefest that captures the no holds barred spirit of the early days of the horror boom.
An archeology professor, seeking the truth behind the end of the Mayan civilization, unleashes that truth when he unwittingly breaks open the seal on the doorway to Xibalba....the realm of the Mayan Lord of Death, hidden deep in the mountains of Georgia.
A fast paced read that captures the feel of a 70s horror movie, while offering up a myth system that is so colorfully different and complex, it grabs your attention.....and yanks it out your nose. The Sisters' shared imagination is a thing of wonder, and they let it run wild in these pages, creating imagery that will splatter blood across your nightmares for a long time to come. Yeah, this one gets nasty......but ain't that what we're here for?
While there are points where this novel is obviously a first effort, the Sisters' writing is near perfect, seamless as they work in concert, raising Mayan Blue above the pack of debut authors.
The Sisters of Slaughter are authors to watch.....and I know I will be. Grab a copy of Mayan Blue and tell me I'm wrong.
Highly recommended.
Let me begin by stating that I do not rate John Connolly against other thriller authors. It's simply not done. I rate John Connolly against John Connolly. His work stands alone in the field, and even a good John Connolly book is head and shoulders above anything else currently being written in the genre.
That being said, A Time of Torment is, in my humble opinion, the weakest in the Charlie Parker series. A man who stopped a pair of bizarre killers, only to have his life systematically taken apart, his reputation destroyed, falsely imprisoned for the lowest of crimes, and targeted by a brutal group intent on turning his incarceration into a living Hell.
Finally freed, he knows his days are numbered, and he turns to Charlie Parker to expose his tormentors, the deadly conspiracy that stems from an isolated community known as The Cut, and the dark secret it hides at it's heart.....the entity known as The Dead King.
An engaging enough plot, and a faster than usual read, with a strong start.....Parker forming an uneasy alliance with the Collector, one based on the threat of Louis, in order to use his nemesis against those Charlie hunts.....and a powerful finish, where Charlie's daughter, Sam, displays her growing talents to devastating effect, showcasing her cold, lethal intelligence.
But in between these points lies the problem.....the main characters of the series, Charlie, Louis and Angel, are mere shadows drifting in and out of the story, and the tale suffers the lack of heart, humor and depth they normally bring to the table.
Surely just a stumble in a series that raised the bar on thrillers.
As always, I look forward to the next book in the series with my enthusiasm undimmed.
This was an eARC from Netgalley.
When it comes to pedal to the metal, no brakes, balls to the wall survivalist horror, Brian Keene is the master of disaster.
Now, I'm not a big fan of survivalist horror, or splatterpunk in general, as I tend to stick to the "quiet" side of the genre, but I know who Me. Keene is and when my book buddy Chris K. offered me an eARC of The Complex in exchange for an honest review, I figured it was time to give Brian a try.
Unholy Hell, but the man can write!
The action takes off without warning, and reason goes out the window, as the residents of an apartment complex find themselves under siege by hordes of naked, rabid lunatics, and doesn't stop until you hit the back cover wreathed in the smoke of smouldering pages. While this tale may appear to tread familiar ground for fans of survival horror, Keene raises the bar with intelligent plotting, realistic characters, a fine grasp of the community dynamic that exists in society these days, the realization that the worst incidents of random violence have no rational explanations, and two of the most interesting individuals I've come across in a while......the serial killer/vigilante of the supernatural known as "The Exit" and the man mountain of berserk blubber referred to as "Tick Tock". I plan to read more about the former.....and hope to learn more about the latter. This guy makes Chaingang of Rex Miller's classic SLOB look normal.
I must admit, despite the distance that exists between my reading tastes and Mr. Keene's preferred sub-genre, I need to read more of his work. It's that damn good.
Highly recommended.
A boy with a gun waits for the man who killed his mother.
A troubled detective confronts her past in the aftermath of a brutal shooting.
After thirteen years in prison, a good cop walks free as deep in the forest, on the altar of an abandoned church, a body cools in pale linen…
These are the first pieces in the stunning mosaic that is John Hart's long awaited new novel Redemption Road ....
And that is an oversimplification, for each individual piece is part of it's own mosaic. A complex, rich and textured tale in and of itself. Fuel enough for several novels. But this is a John Hart thriller. Each mosaic is a mosaic piece of it's own, each a tale that fits into the whole in myriad ways, for what each portrays is not what it appears.....
Absorbing, complex and literary, this is a thinking reader's thriller....Hart's writing is pitch perfect and mesmerizing, the pacing is flawless and his characters are human to the core, possessing depths, secrets and denials that ring true.
Truly a masterwork by one of the best in the business.
Highest possible recommendation.
This was an eARC from Netgalley.
Science fiction meets the Occult in this pulptastic creature feature tale of space exploration, colonization, ghost ships, experimental drives....and Lovecraftian repercussions
Meikle is a master of spinning tales that combine old school with a contemporary voice, engaging imagination and a welcome sense of fun.
Highly recommended.
No one writes like John R. Little, and this collection is a monumental testament to his talent, his versatility and his sheer literary power.
What is unique about this collection, which gathers some of his finest short stories, is the emotions that moves them all.....
Rarely has a writer worked the dark side of fiction touched on this emotion in so many ways, and with such immense impact. John's writing will leave you an emotional wreck. He wrings out your soul, and breaks your heart.
He brought me to tears, and that just doesn't happen. Ever.
John R. Little is that damn good. Hell, scratch that....John is one of the best.
Each of these tales is a perfect gem, and each is worth the price of admission on there own.
But, wait......there's more.
For within this amazing collection is the novella MIRANDA, winner of the Bram Stoker Award for Long Fiction (2008)....the crown jewel of this literary treasure trove.....a stunningly powerful tale that will linger with readers for the rest of their lives.
Get your copy now, along with everything John's written or will write.
You can thank me later.

Mercedes M. Yardley is a breath of fresh air in the dark urban fantasy genre. Her first book in The Bone Angel trilogy may appear at first glance to follow a familiar path, but her tale breaks away from the pack, filled to the brim with humor, heart, an invigorating young heroine who raises casual sarcasm to an art form, and enough darkness to satisfy both dark fantasy and horror fans alike, while spinning a new mythology for both demons and angels that engages the imagination.
This was my first Yardley book, and it won't be my last.
Highest possible recommendation.
A trilogy of tales (Dr. Blessing's Curse, Dr. Blessing's Rapture, and A Christmas Blessing) that form a cohesive novel, The Cabinet of Dr. Blessing is one of the most chilling examples of Victorian historical horror I've read in quite some time.....one that deserves a place on the shelves with the classics that were written in that time period.
Jack Rollins sense of time, place and the attitudes of the era are pitch perfect, transporting the reader back to the London of the 1800s, immersing them in the sights, sounds and squalor of the time with a masterful skill. Offering up an alternative take on the tale of The Elephant Man, wherein the twisted "monster" was a decent, tortured soul, we bear witness to a monster that is far darker than expected, and the cold evil of the Victorian medical community....where scientific curiosity overrode common sense, human decency and public safety, how the search for knowledge led to amoral acts that would chill the blood of the most dedicated sadist.
Mr. Rollins is an author to watch. I look forward to reading more from him.
Highest possible recommendation.
Will Burgess is a kid used to the rough side of life. Raising his little sister with a mom who is mentally missing in action thanks to pharmaceutical fire, and an absentee father. Trying to survive his first year of high school, targeted by bullies....including one particularly vicious thug who happens to be dating the girl he can't get out of his head or his heart.
More than enough for any teenager.......but things are about to take a turn for the worst, with an escaped serial killer heading in his direction.......and something far worse lurking out in the woods.
Janz takes the coming of age story into horror territory with impressive results, melding his already well established ability to create characters that ring true, characters with heart and soul, that you can't help but feel empathy with, and his prodigious talent for monster mayhem.....and big props from this reviewer for his take on mythological creatures that have been personal favorites of mine since the first horror story I've ever read......the one that made me a fan of dark fiction for life.
This one reminded me of Dan Simmons' SUMMER OF NIGHT......but stripped down, built for speed....without giving up any of the horsepower. This one burns rubber, folks, and you'll want to take it for a spin.

Highest possible recommendation.
I received an eARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
A young woman's journey to reunite with the father she never knew has her crossing paths with a brutal serial killer.
This fast paced thriller is the definition of a page turner....it will leave your finger tips smoking as you are drawn into this incredibly engaging and brutal tale.
Sean Costello is a master craftsman, offering up solidly human characters, a maniac who is more horrifying for his reality (and the nasty hobby he uses to pick up spending cash), while weaving threads concerning addiction, broken families, love, forgiveness, recovery and redemption, adding a refreshing depth that is rarely found in the genre
Highly recommended. I will be eagerly awaiting Mr. Costello's next book, while hunting down his previous ones. He's that good.

Requirements for Enrollment
Social Security Number: We will need the child's social security number.
Immunization Requirements: Missouri State Law states "Students will not be allowed to attend school at all without the proper immunizations or exemptions." Immunizations are given free at the Jasper County Health Department. Call (toll-free) 1-417-358-3111 for an appointment.
Proof of Residency: Webb City R-7 School District provides educational service only to those students who are eligible as defined by law. Proof of residency of the parent or the court appointed legal guardian must be provided. Proof of residency is determined by the ability to provide a utility bill in the name of the parent or legal guardian or other documentation acceptable to the School District. All questionable residency issues will be referred to the Superintendent of Schools.
Attendance Policy
Regular attendance is extremely important. It has been proven many times that good attendance is associated with success in school. Each student is expected to attend school every day except when illness, injury, doctor's appointment, or some other condition beyond their control prevents his doing so. Parents are asked to call the Junior High office if their child is to be absent. In order to emphasize the importance of regular school attendance, the Board of Education has adopted a policy on absence.
•Excused Absence: Generally, an absence due to illness, death in the family, or some emergency making absence necessary. Notification from a parent or guardian on the day of the absence or a note, written and signed by a parent or guardian, stating the illness, emergency, or death of a family member, will be required for an absence to be considered excused. Absences in excess of 10 days per semester will not be excused without a doctor's note. Permits for doctor or dentist appointments must be signed at the physician's office and time leaving the office noted on the permit, before returning it to the Principal's Office.
•Out of Town Card: When it is necessary for a student to accompany his family on a trip, the absence may be excused if arrangements are made in advance. Any student going out of town is required to have on file in the office an "Out of Town Notification" card. All his teachers must sign the out of town card. Attendance will be taken into consideration in determining if such absences are to be excused. Forms are available at the Principal's office.
•Unexcused Absence: An absence for any reason other than those designated as excused, or an absence without a written and signed note by a parent or guardian before the absence or within 5 school days after returning to school, or a suspension or truancy
•Tardiness: A student will be considered tardy if he is not on time to class. Students missing 25 minutes or more of the class may be considered absent from the class. Tardy admits must be secured from the office before going to class. Excessive tardiness will result in disciplinary action.
•Truancy: Any absence other than those listed as excused or unexcused. A student will be considered truant if, after leaving his home for school, he does not attend school, or if he leaves the campus without permission from the office, or if he chooses not to attend a class.
Students who participate in any type of organized "skip day" will be counted as truant from school and subject to disciplinary action.
•Permission to Leave: To obtain permission to leave school during the day, the student must have a parent or guardian write or telephone a request to the Principal's Office stating: (1) the exact time the student is to be dismissed, (2) the reason for which the student is to leave. After a student arrives at school, even if before classes begin, the student should not leave school without permission from the office.
•Suspension: Students suspended for disciplinary reasons will not be allowed to participate in or attend school activities.
Make-Up Work
When absent, students are expected to make up work missed in each class. It is the student's responsibility to obtain all make-up work from your teachers immediately upon returning to school. Students will be responsible for making up all work within time limits at the discretion of the teacher.
In cases of extended illness, assignments may be requested through the Junior High office. Please allow one day for this material to be compiled. Assignments can be found on the web at http://www.wccards.k12.mo.us
Withdrawal and Transfer
The procedure for withdrawing and transferring to another school is as follows:
1. Secure a note from your parents authorizing you to withdraw from Webb City Junior High.
2. Obtain the appropriate withdrawal form from the office and have the form filled out and checked by all your teachers, return all school books and school property, and make sure that all fees are paid.
3. Take completed form to the office for final clearance.
Change of Address
Inform the office if you change your address or telephone number. It is important for the school to have your parents' residence and business phone numbers in case of emergency.

text: Well my shiny new Spyderco Endura Wave finally came in yesterday. I say finally it got here a lot faster than I expected. Even getting for 60% of the retail price including shipping off ebay it's still the most expensive knife I've ever bought. So far I would have to say it is worth it. It is a little bigger than I thought; the blade is every bit of 4" and pretty thick. It didn't come as sharp as I expected but still sharp enough. It has a fairly slim profile and almost disappears in my pocket. Most Spyderco's come with a black handle but this one has a dark gray handle, it also has a very aggressive pattern to help you keep a good grip on it. Finally the wave feature, the hook on the back of the blade to make it open when you pull it out of your pocket. I was surprised how well it worked. It is very easy to pull it out of your pocket and have it completely open with a very natural movement, just pull up and back. Also important, it is easy to pull it out of your pocket and have it not open when you want also. Just pull either strait up or up and forward a little instead of up and back. Overall I am very impressed and satisfied with it. It is now my new daily carry knife.

Cape Town - An 11-year-old boy who was swept into the sea after being knocked off rocks in Hout Bay is presumed to have drowned, the National Sea Rescue Institute said on Sunday.
Spokesperson Craig Lambinon said the boy was not found in an extensive ongoing search on Sunday.
He went missing on Saturday afternoon after being swept off a rock at Karbonkelberg.
He was part of a group of young boys who were picking small sea snails near the surf.
Lambinon urged parents to supervise children at the beach as extremely rough sea conditions were expected for the next few months.
This is so tragic! Damn man, come on parents, look after your children, for crying out loud! Feel very sad for that little man. A awful waste of a young life!
NZdreamer. The parents have just lost their son - don't be so insensitive. No one saw that a wave would knock him off the rocks and an 11 year old child is usually not watched every minute. I feel sorry for the parents. No one deserves to lose a child.
He was at the beach with other small boys, so all their parents must have thought wherever they were supposed to be going was a safe area. You cannot control 11-year-old children's activities all day long, you know.

Monteverde Cloud Forest
Monteverde Travel Blog› entry 29 of 34 › view all entries
September 7th, 2006 – by: ArlsAndTris
We embraced one of the many tourist-minded attractions that Costa Rica has to offer. This is one country set-up for travellers, due to it´s close proximity to North American. We decided to go on a Zip Line tour through the canopy of the Monteverde cloud forest...yep, we definately appreciated nature from a different angle and speed ;-)
The day after we decided a change pace was required. We strolled down to the local frog sanctuary for an extremely informative overview of just how hard it is to be green (or brown, red, black, blue.....). As off the wall as we might sound, we even went back again that night to see them in their nocturnal environment.

It would help to know your current diet and exercise patterns but what worked for me was cutting out almost all soda and drinking water instead combined with vigorous exercise 5 days a week for 15-20 minutes. I also cut out most carbs which encourage your body to create fat.
Everything else I had tried failed until I started doing those things. Then the weight started gradually coming off. You cannot spot reduce fat- it comes off all over the body- but the waistline will improve.
Book yourself into a private hospital and have your small and large intestines removed-that should do the trick.
If its just for two weeks and you're not looking to the long term, I would suggest doing the 2 week induction of the atkins diet, where you cut out all but 15gs a day of carbohydrates and drink loads of water. That should certainly cut your waist size down very quickly.
The other thing is to go on the cabbage soup diet for a few days. It also will reduce your waist size really quickly (but not permanently).
If its longer term, you want to follow the other advice on this page.
Cutting down on carbohydrates, virtually eliminating them and just eating vegetables to get your vitamins is one way, however there is the old favourite of a tummy cincher if you are looking to fit into an outfit. I've written a hub on them. Its a temporary solution temporary, but they are useful for a last minute reduction
Cutting down on carbs completely or almost completely is an extremely unwise idea. Sure, you'll lose weight, but you'll also get ketosis (which means your body will start burning fat for energy rather than glucose), which will make you slow both mentally and physically, dizzy, nauseous and can eventually kill you.
Reducing carbohydrate intake such as by cutting out refined carbohydrates such as sugars, and just eating meat, fruit and vegetables is the basis of many diets with the aim of rapid weight loss. Not a good idea, but when pushed for time, there is not a lot else to do.
Yes, as you point out that it does lead to ketosis, which is rather the point of the exercise. This is the process where the body breaks down fat rather than getting energy from carbohydrate intake, and is a fundamental part of rapid weight loss. Over the course of 2 weeks, I would say that is highly unlikely that you will die. Long term, yep, unwise to majorly restrict them.
First off I have no idea how much you weigh, how much you're trying to lose, and for what reason. As unhelpful as this will sound, I suggest you forget about the idea of reducing your waist size in 2 weeks. It's best not to obsess over the idea of being slimmer, but to instead set some long-term goals and work towards them. Most any way to slim down in 2 weeks will be unhealthy.
I am a registered nurse, so hopefully I will try to give you a healthy way to approach the subject. If you are a female, the waistline can be linked to bloating due to hormonal ups and downs in a monthly cycle, some over the counter medications like midol can help relieve the bloating, if you are healthy otherwise ( only you and your doctor know the answer), other wise is your general diet full of fiber, and rich in fruits and vegetables, and do you drink plenty of water ? This will help immensely. Ultimately you need to work on diet and excercise is the most healthy way to keep your waist trimmed down to a size you are happy with. ( a gym, or an online site for waist exercises at home can help you form a program designed to reduce your waist over time.) If you are really in need to do this quickly, then drink lots of water ( provided you don't have heart disease, kidney disease, etc) and try a piece of lingerie like a slimmer for temporary help.
the idea I think is a steady deliberate life change until the new way of living, and eating become habbit. I am not sure you can see a great change in just two weeks.
unles you plan to hop on an exercise bike and petal until the bearings freez up!....just kidding
pick a plan you can live with, then live that plan. just like above, water, fiber, fruits, sugars and salts all in balance and small amounts. exercise and a new mind set works. small frequent meals, and only eat when you are hungary. Look up an AMA diet plan and guard your health as you do it.
fad diets do not work, this I know well.
Just throw it in the bin! oh waist not waste! lol I'll get my coat!
Make a habit of keeping your back straight and your stomach pulled in.
This should pull some of your middle from around your waist. It will also be a source of passive exercise, so using up some of your body fat, and further reducing your waistline.
It will also strengthen your back muscles, thus reducing back problems.
You can do the saran wrap and bengay. By wrapping you stomach with saran and rubbing bengay on to it you will cause your abs to work harder and sweet more. I lose 2 inches in a week. Dont keep on all day.
No matter what methods you use, weight loss happens in the areas with the highest concentration of fat first. So even if you diet and exercise, you waist size might not change that much if other body parts are carrying denser deposits of body fat. If some area of your body has more fat than your waist, that area will start to shrink before your waist does.
That's partially why so many women complain that when they lose weight it seems to come off their boobs first.
I suggest outright starvation. It'll do you good.
i think you should try zumba dance along with a healthy diet....balanced diet............ its fun........ a very nice way to do exercise..... 'm doing it from past few days and i hope i will lose weight....... anyone can do it..... 'm a very bad dancer but i really enjoy zumba dance..... its very hard to lose waist fat and the exercises for it are also not easy.....pain giving exercises...... but zumba dance will definitely work......its easy.......
What worked for me was to write down EVERYTHING you eat and drink. Seeing all the unnecessary foods written down on paper will help you to realize where all the calories are coming from and maybe you will begin to replace the twinkies with carrot sticks, red meat with chicken or fish, bread and butter with cottage cheese and fruit. It also helps a lot to drink lots of water, especially just before you eat. I don't know about losing weight/inches as fast as 2 weeks, but you will lose fairly quickly. Diet pills don't work. Believe me, I have tried just about all of them. I've lost weight using them, but the weight came right back and then some. It has been shown that artificial sweeteners actually increase the appetite for bad carbs. I drink about 8 ounces of water 5 minutes before I eat anything and have 5 or 6 small snacks a day. It has been working, just not overnight. It takes time and patience. Good luck to you.
What you did is really what I'd recommend - I'd add in cutting out simple carbs and eating plenty of protein, but drinking lots of water is a great way to get rid of water retention, and cutting down sugary drinks is always good. Short, efficient workouts are also fantastic for your body as you'll be increasing your metabolism for hours after you've finished exercising, and if you're doing that 5 days a week, it can really add up.
I cut meat and sugar (including those fruit juices we love) for a month and definitely felt and looked more lean. I am still trying to continue that. Chickens, cows, and turkeys, for instance, just don't come out the way they used too! Veggies and fruits are being genetically altered too. Cheese, eggs, and milk are biproducts of these same genetically altered and hormone pumped chickens and cows.
I've also begun doing Zumba! It's awesome! It really gets the heart rate up and is fun too! I need to do it at least 5 days but have been doing it at least 3 a week.

Return to Freedom is an open forum for Ex-Scientologists and other group members to communicate and voice their views in the hope that freedom of thought occurs. It also has helpful exercises and articles to read. It is aimed at discovering truth and returning the person to a state where they can think for themselves and take back their life.
Over the last half century the subject of mind control and spiritual manipulation has become a hot topic. Those innocents trying to find the truth often end up in the hands of unscrupulous leaders and groups that abuse lives and ruin families. This blog is a forum to share information and relieve past traumas.
Glenn Samuels was born in Los Angeles, California. Early training included Scientology. Glenn lived and worked aboard the Flagship Apollo where he was personally trained as a counselor by Hubbard. Glenn left Scientology in 1982 after seeing Scientology's corruption and greed firsthand.
Leaving a destructive group environment is a very difficult thing to do; you often have no job skills or trade, families get torn apart, and your friendships dissolve along with your glorified purpose. A lot of ex-members never recover; some commit suicide or go into a deep depression because they can't face the emptiness, guilt and shame of feeling deceived and shunned.
Glenn has insight into the lifestyle and peculiarities that many other counselors don't have, because he has suffered and overcome the same abuses and violations. As a counselor and certified minister he has the skills to unwind the mind that communicates well to the ex-member. His unique Mind Control Program and exercises help ex-members get relief from the mind control, abuse, induced phobias, and nullification techniques that occur in destructive groups.

John Turner chalked up a classic autumn duo with a PB chub and a season's best barbel after monitoring receding flood water.
The Tamworth, Staffordshire, rod had the pair within an hour of each other on Mercia AC-owned stretch of the River Anker, using halibut pellets as bait. The chub went 5lb 8oz and the barbel pulled the scales round to 12lb 4oz.
John (46) said "I'd been watching the river all week — it had fallen nicely and still had a bit of colour in it. The barbel put up a fantastic fight, taking 20yds of line on its first run"

text: Any doubts that may existed about Penn State are starting to slip away after the Lions' 38-24 win over Illinois on Saturday. But before you reserve those tickets to the Orange Bowl, though, just remember that it doesn't get any easier from here on out. After opening with four of five games at Beaver Stadium, Penn State plays four of its next five on the road. The Lions have to travel to always hostile Wisconsin on Oct. 11 and two weeks later to Ohio State where they haven't won since joining the Big Ten.

I had miles of flats to myself, and I must have seen 25-30 bones. I had six flat out refusals, and at least 7 follows before they decided they didn't like the fly or the presentation. I also had 3 fish do what they are supposed to do, two of them got away though, one because of equipment failure, the other because of operator failure. The two fish I lost were Big Bones, I'm still having nightmares! The small one I landed went one-hundred yards into my backing twice! There weren't as many Black tips around this time, and I did not see any GT's, but I got an offer to go to X-mas Island in April for GT's...I just might do it. Aloha!

hiya android team just got the htc wildfire any thoughts should i have got something better
does the wildfire support live wallpapers you can download them so can you use em
Hi!! Welcome to Android Forums!!
Gonna move your thread to the Wildfire section!!
welcome! I would have,
Long press on the desktop and select wallpapers. If there is an option for "Live Wallpapers" it does, if not - no, sorry.
No GPU = No Live Wallpapers
Sorry, not true. The HTC desire doesn't have a GPU yet handles live wallpapers well. The CPU does the processing. Thing is, the wildfire has a relatively small CPU - which is why no live wallpapers.

What is the cost of extending a Lease with only 72 years and does this vary depending on location?

It depends solely on the freeholders discretion, you'd need confirmation from them directly.Answered on Apr 11 2011, Report content
There is a legal limit that the freeholder can charge. This can be valued as from the ground rent payable. BE AWARE that many solicitors can misadvise and make assumptions, as a rule of thumb you are likely to be looking at circa £7-10000, but I have renewed for as little as £700 in Worthing. The real question for you is why do you need to renew?Answered on Jun 6 2011, Report content

Mahwah, NJ March 31, 2015
Denon Electronics, a leading manufacturer of premium home and personal audio products, announces new app updates to the HEOS wireless multi-room sound system to enhance users' experience with added convenience and innovation. Based on feedback from customers as well as Denon's own staff, the list of new features and additions to the HEOS App gives music lovers even more reasons to be amazed in 2015.
* The HEOS app which is currently available for iOS and Android is now available for Kindle. Kindle users can now download the HEOS app from the Amazon app store, for use on their Kindle Fire and Fire phone devices.
* HEOS recently added iHeartRadio to their growing list of cloud music sources giving listeners access to thousands of live AM/FM radio stations from across the country and the ability to create their own Custom Stations.
* HEOS has also added SiriusXM which delivers commercial-free music from a wide variety of genres; plus premier sports talk and live events; comedy; news; and exclusive talk and entertainment. Its All Access package (subscription sold separately) lets HEOS users listen to more than 155 SiriusXM Internet Radio channels.
* In response to user feedback, Denon has improved the stereo pairing functionality for the HEOS 3 speakers.
* For users who have a large collection of music in iTunes, the HEOS system now supports ALAC (Apple Lossless Audio Codec).
* Using a HEOS Link with any Denon or Marantz IP-based A/V receiver or preamp is now a whole lot easier as the Link now supports AV/AVR IP control. Integrating HEOS into an existing Denon or Marantz system, including power, source and volume, along with two-way feedback, is seamless and simpler than ever.
* All HEOS products now accept command signals from third-party control manufacturers. Certified control modules from Denon's third-party control partners are now in development and will be available soon. Stay tuned for announcements in the coming weeks.
* Denon has added podcast support for TuneIn Internet Radio, podcast support for iOS & Android, and we have improved playback of content stored on users' mobile devices through automated music discovery so users no longer need to search through music files.

This compact yet fully featured wireless stereo speaker plays the user's favorite music from a range of streaming services from a smartphone or tablet, even a USB drive. Ideal for smaller spaces such as bedrooms, offices, dens, kitchens and dorm rooms.
* HEOS 5 ($399) wireless speaker is where elegance meets performance. This discreet and elegant speaker produces incredibly detailed wide range high fidelity stereo sound. It is ideal for medium to large rooms such as dining rooms, larger bedrooms, and offices or smaller living rooms.
* HEOS 7 ($599) a wireless speaker for the ultimate listening experience. Able to produce true wide range high fidelity stereo sound, the HEOS 7 can deliver room-filling volume even in larger spaces such as living rooms, great rooms, and open area floor plans.
