Orianna 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.
When people at riot said that they were making a very special champion, with completely different play style and different mechanics i thought that it might be intersting. I bought her the day she was launched and have been trying to play with her... First i tried standard caster build, stacking AP and all, and it was ok... It's powerfull and all, but i think that its just not taking all that she can do. So i started thinking and noticed that her passive was preety intersting... A precentage AP in auto-attack (20%) is very nice boost, when you have 500 AP... What if you could take very good damage with your standard abilities and very good damage with auto-attacks!? Thats nice... In that case you are unloading more damage... Throwing in some attack speed and we have!? A range carry dps caster...
If you think this makes sense too, stick around and try the build... It may not be the best, but its damn intersting to play with...
Pros / Cons
- Good farmer
- Good harasser
- Very good support
- Very good damage output
- Its funny to throw balls at other people
- Can suffer in the begining if pushed by two very strong pushers
- Build lacks of mana (solved with blue buff)
- No slowing method besides little dissonance slow (solved with red buff)
- Not funny to walk around looking like lady gaga!
Now, i think this part is quite easy to explain.
Greater Mark of Insight for magic penetration, wich is very usefull the entire game...
Greater Seal of Replenishment for the mana regen boost wich is very usefull because she is very mana hungry early on...
Greater Glyph of Potency for AP boost early on.
Greater Quintessence of Insight. Now here i prefer the extra magic penetration, however you can switch these with flat health quintessences... Its really your call.
Now, here's where the thing gets intersting!
I start with an Amplifying Tome and an health pot. Now, if you dont feel confident about your gameplay or if you like to play very agressive, you may wwant to take Doran's Ring. The health and the mana regen allow you to be agressive, take some chances and harass more early game.
After i get about 1900 gold i go back and get mejai and boots... Now from now on its very important that you dont die. The reason that i put mejai in this build is because if you build these items, you will be very weak till mid game... The mejai, if you play well, will boost your power until you get the necessary items to stay strong.
After that i build malady for very good attack speed increase as well as some AP. After you get ginsoo's and get some stacks on your mejai, you can see your damage output is starting to grow.
Nashor's tooth will give you the final AP, attack speed, cooldown reduction and mana regen! After you get this items, your core build is complete and you are now unleashing some preety good damage, both by abilities and by auto-attack.
With this 4 items, depending on how good your stacks are, you get around 400/500 AP wich is more than enough, i think.
Now, after that, its really your choice to see what you wanna get. If you get focused you can go for Banshee's, you can buy rabadon for extra AP boost, you can buy Gunblade if you want some spellvamp and lifesteal or you can even get madred's... I prefer to build madreds or the gunblade...But its really your choice!
Skill Sequence
I start by maxing out Command: Attack for obvious reasons... This is your main harrassing tool, along with auto-attacks, and is one of the main damage abilities you have.
Now here is where there is a little change in other builds... I max Command: Protect before Command: Dissonance. Why?! If you're going to be auto-attacking enemies, you must have a really good defense in case they try to push you over... Her range isn't all that great! So when they try to counter harass you, you have a very good defense to back you up. If you think you want the damage from dissonance, you can try to split the levels between the two abilities... your call, once again.
Summoner Spells
I take clarity, because early on she is very mana hungry, and i like to stay in lane as long as i can. Since i dont like to be forced out of lane because i dont have mana, i do prefer to get this summoner spell.
Flash for obvious reasons... Flash in to pursue, flash out/dissoncance to escape... Etc...
Here i'll just leave some tips...
I usually combo Command Attack, followed by Shockwave and Dissonance and throwing the ball protecting your carry or tank (whoever is getting focused). Another way to do it is to have a good initiator in team (Malphite, Xin Zhao or amumu) and cast Protect on him, so he can initiate and then combo Shockwave and Dissonance for the CC and damage. After you do this you can auto attack anyone and stay focused on the cooldowns so you have your ball moving and dealing as much damage as you can.
If you are alone, facing 1on1 another champion i wouldn't advise using your ultimate... You can use it if you are in a pinch, however auto attacks and protect, dissonance and attack should be enough for the kill. Remember, your ultimate isn't awsome because of the damage, but because of the effect...
Now you should always ask your team and junglers if its ok to take the blue buff or the red. If they agree, then take the buff and say thanks. Good manners never made anyone play bad. Being rude on the other hand... :) You know what i mean!
Hope you liked it... I think this build is still very incomplete, but you can ask me and comment so we can all make it better. I would apreciate it... Thanks everyone.

Liv Tyler: 'I've never been prouder of my body'
Liv Tyler thinks a great coat can pull together any look and add "a touch of masculinity" to a feminine silhouette.
Actress Liv Tyler didn't let motherhood get in the way of designing her latest collection for Belstaff.
The Lord of the Rings beauty welcomed her third child, daughter Lula, last month (Jul16) with partner Dave Gardner, but the 39-year-old has happily juggled sleepless nights and round the clock feeds with her latest fashion venture.
Liv has designed a capsule collection for the British heritage label, and kept in mind what a new mum could be looking for when it comes to post-baby clothing.
"One day you are a radiant giant-bellied wonder and the next day you are kind of like a deflated balloon!" she told Vogue.com of the transition. "You have to be kind to yourself, your body . . . and patient. I know what works for me and my body, and I try to stick to that. I feel more confident and proud of my body than I ever have. Great classic silhouettes are always best for me. I like being able to throw a look together quickly and feel and look my best."
Liv's approach to mommy chic is definitely reflected in the collection, which mostly consists of coats, and ties together Belstaff's reputation for excellent outerwear and her own reliance on using a coat to pull together, "pretty dresses or pants and soft, feminine blouses, to add a touch of masculinity."
"When I think of Belstaff, I think of great coats that last a really long time and get better and better with age," she explained. "(I wanted) to create something fresh that every woman would want to add to her closet for many years to come. I am drawn to simple shapes and designs. I like things that are practical and functional but also very luxurious and elegant."

Have you tried running in auto to see if that fixes the rain out problem? Also, the hose cover alone should help with the rain out issue.
If all else fails, lower the humidity to 5.

Discussion in 'General Firearms Forum' started by pspez, Jun 28, 2012.
I really like this shotgun. Does any one have one and if so your thoughts. Thanks
This one?
This one instead.
If it's a 500, it's a good shotgun. No worries unless you expect frequent sustained firefights with slugs or buckshot which will eventually wear it down over time. Otherwise, it will serve you well.
The first picture with collapsable stock.
Thanks Sniperfox.
I love 500's. No worries. Get the one you like the most.
I just the 590A1 with speed feed stock, The stock broke in 3 days. I Never even fired it. The butplate broke and the springs shot out the back. Mossberg is sending me another butplate, kinda sucks, brand new gun and I have to wait two weeks before the parts arrive. I got impatient and ordered the short hogue stock and forearm, its magnificent.
You may also be interested in the mag extension. For the 18.5 barrel there are not many choices. I got the +1 from choate actually allowed me to stuff two more shells. The problem is most extensions for mossberg will extend past the barrel, but the choate is even with it.
For what its worth, a lot of people do not like the mossberg with the pistol grips because it makes the safety difficult to work. The mossberg controls are better suited for a traditional stock while the 870 is better suited for pistol grip. Also the slide release is more difficult to operate with pistol grip on mossberg. In other words by putting a pistol grip on the mossberg some of the advantages of the mossberg over the 870 are lost and in fact they are probably detrimental.
I don't have the experience to say either way, Im just repeating what I've read but when I picked one up it all made since. Good luck, I love my mossberg.
I bought a Mossberg 500 at a police auction about 28 years ago for $25. Cut the barrel down to 20" and carried it for years as a self defense gun. I also bought a hunting barrel with chokes for it, a slug barrel and a muzzle loading barrel for it, all used. I've hunted birds, rabbits, turkeys, and deer with it. I don't think I have more than $200 in it total including all the barrels.
About a month ago I saw one at a garage sale. Barrel was rusty, it had been put away wet. Talked the guy down to $100 and called my son. He came and picked it up as his first shotgun.
500, with collapsable stock, rail and sights....
Solid gun anyway you slice it.
Not disagreeing with the control comments, but they are minor issues IMO, particulalrly considering how a gun for that purpose is used. A little practice and you'll easily get to safety off when mounting and learn the slide release stretch. Note, i am not someone who plays with the safety like it's my yang.
BG = Safety off until business is over period. Slide release is moot if you leave it cocked.
You'll like that gun. I've got pretty much the same thing as my turkey gun. This thing is a blast, black birds won't come near my place because of it.

text: greetings supposed fellow cyclone 'fans'. How much can u rip a guy n dismiss a IOWA recruit, Mr. Basketball at that? Lets see... a granite chisled, strong as a ox, no fat, 6'9 245pd recruit who can run the floor, shoot the 3, smash down a tomahawk dunk, push players around like ragdolls isnt good enough for you? What player is good enough for you then? Has everyone been so brainwashed by recruiting sites that you cant open your eyes or pay attention to the news? Didnt any of you see or read what he did at the state tourney? He demolished everyone! Grant Stout and Homan were excellent players but i would say Jackson Vroman- Jess Settles is a better comparison. Plus i heard he already is a 3 hr a day weightlifting nut. Sorry for the rant i just got on and was reading old posts. Good grief just be happy we got the steal of the year.

Pain is a subject we avoid. We find it uncomfortable and difficult to talk about. This silence is to the detriment of both those who are in pain and those who care for them. In this book, Dr. Rachel Aarons brings the subject of pain out of the shadows. She explores it from all angles.
In part one, you will find an in-depth depiction of how being in severe pain alters the person you are and the world you live in. In this detailed phenomenology of the pain experience, Dr. Aarons gives voice to what has been muffled in silence. She is joined by a medley of voices of pain patients with a range of challenging medical issues. They each share their personal experiences of pain and the hard-won messages they are moved to convey about them.
Part two may be seen as a wake-up call from the perspective of the patient directed to those caregivers - including doctors and nurses - who provide medical care to people in pain. It is offered for the purpose of enhancing their understanding and effectiveness in areas of caregiving that relate not to textbook knowledge but to the personal experience of the patient.
In the crescendo of part three, Dr. Aarons tackles the question of how to live with, reduce, relieve, and even rise above pain. She reviews and evaluates a variety of specific pain management approaches for their usefulness and transformative power.
About Pain promises to deepen and expand both your empathy and your understanding of pain. From a professional and at the same time personal perspective, Dr. Aarons sheds a starkly honest light on a taboo subject that inevitably affects every one of us.

"About Pain" by Rachel Aarons is a must
I am a psychiatrist/addictionist, and I am also board eligible in neurology. I am a former member of the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis, where I learned to use that arcane and highly effective method to treat acute and chronic pain. Lastly, I am coincidentally a pain sufferer. Having managed innumerable patients who have suffered pain, a host more who have attempted through addiction to avoid it, and finally to experience my own pain through 3 back surgeries and 15 months of at times almost unbearable L4-5 nerve root pain, I think I can speak with authority about Rachel Aaron's book. I most enjoyed the book because it spoke accurately and comprehensively about the pain condition..
The author seeks to develop our empathy for the suffering of others through dramatized case examples, including her own suffering, making this book a useful textbook for medical students, as well as caregivers. We as caregivers need an understanding of pain and what generates it and have an emotional grasp of its experience, but we need to go further and fathom the mind of the pain sufferer. In other words, we need to have a feel for the "pain" patient. "About Pain" admirably accomplishes this
Finally, we would like to do something about our sufferer's pain. This is not a textbook of physical pain management, but it is essential reading for mental health clinicians encountering pain sufferers in practice, for the author gives us a panoply of effective psycho-social interventions to help ease the pain of many patients.
I would like to have seen discussion of addiction as a prime means of avoiding pain, given our current national opiate crisis, but that would be the topic for another book.
- Ralph H. Armstrong

Soothing the Soul
- Featured: Lee Galloway
- Release Date: 2/20/2004
Lee Galloway has been enthralling audiences in Southern California for years with his unique contemporary piano sound. National and international attention came when his expressive piano solo arrangement of the much-loved 'Canon in D' shot to the top of the charts on mp3.com in 2000. Although classically trained and a lover of the romantic piano repertoire, his contemporary piano sound comes from the heart. Lee Galloway believes that the experience of music should change the listener in some uplifting way. His ability to touch his listeners is proven by the success of his solo CD, 'Soothing the Soul' which his fans buy in multiples to spread the word by giving to friends. Lee Galloway played lead piano in the 1988 Superbowl Halftime Show (with a TV audience of over 100 million) playing for Chubby Checker and the New York City Rockettes, has been featured on NBC Morning News and was musical coach for the acclaimed CBS television mini-series, 'Shake, Rattle and Roll' in 1998. He continues to perform, compose and coach budding musical talents in his hometown of San Diego, California.

Just about anyone can use a bidet as a soothing alternative for toilet paper. Bidets clean the sensitive genital and rectal areas of the body with water. Bidets are very popular with females during menstrual periods, and help alleviate hemorrhoidal and feminine discomforts. Handheld bidets have been used in hospitals to aid people with physical disabilities, and those recovering from colorectal or general surgery.
Female Hygiene – Warm water spray leaves the user feeling fresh and clean during menstruation and after intercourse. The Feel Fresh Bidet helps to relieve discomfort associated with constipation, rashes, hemorrhoids and diarrhea.
Male Hygiene – Helps to relieve symptoms associated with debris left behind by toilet paper, including rectal itching and hemorrhoids.
Senior Hygiene – Warm water spray helps to stimulate movements and provides relief from constipation. The Feel Fresh Bidet allows seniors added independence and dignity by aiding them in good personal hygiene with a minimum of assistance from an attendant.
Disabled Hygiene – The Feel Fresh Bidet allows the disabled added independence and dignity by aiding them in good personal hygiene with a minimum of assistance from an attendant.
Hands Free – Provides to more effective cleaning without the use of toilet paper and your hands.
An Alternative to Toilet Paper – The warm air dryer can completely eliminate the use of toilet paper, which can cause irritation and rash. This will also cut down the amount of waste into sewers or septic tanks.
Healthcare professionals at Columbia University assert that bidets clean much better than toilet paper; help prevent vaginitis, urinary tract infections, and other ailments. Bidets are without doubt helpful for people with hemorrhoids, diarrhea, rashes, and infections, which toilet tissue can aggravate, spread, and add to already painful situations. Bidets help mentally challenged people, the elderly, pregnant women, post-surgical patients, people who are paralyzed, and others for whom standing, reaching, bending, and other movements are painful, difficult, or impossible.
Handheld bidets require little space, and are easy to install. Cool water is pulled from the cistern inlet via a hose attachment to produce tiny high velocity droplets. Consumers looking for a stylish, practical, and affordable solution for better hygiene care without the higher cost of a bidet toilet replacement should consider installing a handheld unit. These attachments have been used widely around the world for many years.
Battery operated bidets are the modern portable personal hygiene systems that make cleansing more convenient and effective beyond what toilet paper can achieve. They are especailly useful during camping trips, and they make an excellent accessory for mothers with young children and infants. They allow everyone to be fresh and clean anytime, anywhere at an affordable price.

Mother Nature decided to play a role at the much anticipated start to the 2013 PGA season opener on Friday afternoon. Wind squalls that peaked at around 40-45 miles per hour and driving rain forced the cancellation of round one of the Hyundai Tournament of Champions, with a re-start scheduled for 7:00 AM Saturday. Weather forecasters are predicting more of the same at the Royal Plantation Golf Course on Maui for Saturday's action.
It was utter chaos on the golf course, as flags were bent sideways at times, and looked like they were going to snap. The rain was being driven so hard that players were having to turn their back to keep from getting their faces pelted. I'm not sure the conditions were even good enough for duck hunting let alone golf. The only place to be, was in the clubhouse, sipping on a Mai Tai.
The wind was gusting so hard that balls on the greens were moving after being placed, and putts from just off the large greens were running 30 feet past the flag, and often back off the green. Carl Pettersson had to call for an official on the second hole for a ruling on such an incident.
After a suspension of play for the weather to clear, the round was eventually cancelled, and the players were told to leave the course. Late tee times had not yet teed off. The big difference between a cancellation, and a suspension of play, is that a cancellation means everyone's score is negated, and when play resumes, they start completely over with new score cards.
Vice President of Rules and Competition Slugger White, explained the decision to the press, and indicated that it would be unfair for the players who had endured the weather problems. Because not all of the 30 players had begun play they felt this was the best way to handle the problem. This is the first time in eight years, a tournament has been totally cancelled.
The happiest person on the course when the cancellation was announced was Scott Stallings. The newcomer had gotten to seven over par, and was not having much luck with his round. The most disappointed, was US Open champion, Webb Simpson, who had gotten to -3 under par before play was stopped. He said he would have continued to play, but understood the decision to cancel the round. He will begin Saturday morning with a clean score card like everyone else.
The weather forecast for Saturday is for less rain, but winds are expected to be 20 to 30 mile per hour. If forecasters have missed on the rain prediction, we may have more of the same. They will continue to attempt a completion of 72 holes, but with any delays on Saturday, officials may well have to shorten the tournament at some point.
Who say's you can't have a Mulligan in professional golf?

Paul Reed Smith Custom 24 Model Solid Body Electric Guitar (1989), made in Annapolis, Maryland, serial # 9-7028, cherry sunburst finish, mahogany body with maple cap, mahogany neck with ebony fingerboard, original black hard shell case. This very attractive PRS is marked in the pickup cavity "Vintage Sunburst 10" for ten grade top. It is a relatively rare variant in the early PRS line with a Gibson-style stoptail/Tune-O-Matic setup, which imparts a definite sound difference compared to the standard trem unit. A nice example from the period and an exceptional player's guitar.Overall length is 38 1/2 in. (97.8 cm.), 13 in. (33 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 1 1/4 in. (3.2 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 25 in. (635 mm.). Width of nut is 1 11/16 in. (43 mm.). Very clean overall with only super light play wear. The only alteration is a cream "chicken head" knob on the rotary selector. An excellent player, definitely benefitting from the rare stoptail feature in terms of a more traditionally "Gibson-y" tone. Excellent + Condition.

Basically, this girl and I have gotten pretty close and have become good friends over the past two months or so. I could go into a lot of detail to show some of the things she's done but I'll just briefly summarize: Told me I'm one of the funniest guys she knows, introduced me to her mom, went to the movies (with friends) and she would hold my arm during the scary scenes, and like had her legs on top of mine kinda...We flirt a lot, physically she lets me touch her in a flirtatious ways, never says stop or anything. We share the same taste in music and kinda like have an inside joke regarding that.
So today, after a couple of weeks where it's been really awkward between us I guess cuz we haven't really been talking, she came up to me and like asked oh do you wanna see this picture or something, and i was like sure and we got to talking and i kinda just like told her like im losing it and i think im going crazy, can't think straight..she asked what's wrong and I said don't worry about it but she kept insisting that I tell her. So I told her to meet up after class so we can go uptown and talk about it. I told her about this problem I've been having to deal with..My dad recently got diagnosed with colon cancer, and so I talked to her about this..She had an idea that my dad was having this issue so she told me that's what she thought I was going to tell her..then she asked is that all? and well idk why but i didnt really tell her i like her i told her i kinda used to like her for a bit in october...and then she acted really shocked and didn't really know what to say..She asked if I still liked her and I said something like "well that kinda depends on how you feel...if you like me then all those feelings would probably come back, but if you don't then it's whatever cuz then we don't really have a problem." and stuff like that...and then she was thinking a lot, and i mean for like 15 minutes lol cuz she told me that idea had never crossed her mind...so i was like ok....and so then she told me how shes trying to envision what it would be like and then she said something like "like right now just walking together i feel like were friends" and then i said alright then...and she said okay so is this resolved? and i was like yeah i guess..and we walked back to school....not sure where to go from here..we promised that it wouldnt be awkward when we see eachother at school..

Before the knock-off Benadryl kicks in, I wanted to post a quick update. Fingers crossed that it makes sense...
First, my zombie tale "Being Neighborly" has been accepted into Through the Eyes of the Undead 2. That one was a nail biter because I was in the first book and really, really wanted to be in the second one too.
Me, the girl that rarely wins anything, won a steampunk pocket watch from the lovely Tonia Brown just by commenting on her amazing web serial "Railroad!" You should check it out--it is really addicting!
What else...hmm... Oh, I just wrote a very brief tale called "Hair Baby" and I'm working up the courage to send it out to a big name magazine. It'll be fun!
I'll leave you on a final note about bringing tension and building up a climax in your writing: write these scenes when you really, really have to pee. Seriously! Channel the anxiety, fear, and drama right onto the written page. Your readers will feel the tension building and never know how you did it. ;)

New Mobotropolis.
An exotic city made entirely from nanobots, renowned across Mobius for its pristine gardens and monarchy-republic diplomacy. Once upon a time it was ruled by the benevolent Acorn family, as they had done for so many generations past.
Until eight years ago.
In the year 3238, King Elias was assassinated six months into his rule, forcing Princess Sally to ascend the throne of Acorn and take a husband. There were many suitors but in the end she chose her long-time friend and fellow Freedom Fighter Sonic the Hedgehog. On the eve of the 165th day, the two were united in marriage.
Unfortunately that marriage would not be long lasting, for a year later, Queen Sally died giving birth to their first and only son, Manic Acorn. Not long after, the former King – Maximillian Acorn – fell ill and died during the night, and the former Queen – Alicia Acorn – was subjected to poison and died before the royal physician could find a cure.
At least, that's how the story goes.
With the kingdom left in King Sonic's care, he soon began changing the ways of life that had been the norm for generations. For example, every child entered the military on their eleventh birthday instead of attending school like they had done up until that time. Tributes to the king were to be made biweekly, and taxes were to be paid on time or the offending party would be prosecuted for defying the throne.
The Kingdom of Acorn's soldiers were ordered to invade Angel Island in the name of their king. The Chaotix rallied the inhabitants and fought bravely but after two months of maintaining the upper hand of the battle, they fell to the King's power. Knuckles the Echidna was executed in front of his people after giving one final outcry against the throne, and Angel Island became part of the Kingdom.
The Battle of Angel Island was used as an example, and the rest of Mobius soon fell under King Sonic's iron fist. Former members of the Freedom Fighters were given presiding over different sectors of the new world order, the group having fallen in line after something the King had done that remains a secret kept within the group.
Only Miles Prower refused to abide by his new King's orders and – after being held prisoner by his former hero and one of his tails cut off in punishment – escaped, living in hiding with his uncle Merlin Prower and learning his birthright powers. Over time, Miles gathered like-minded individuals who soon became a group known only as the Brotherhood of Aurelius.
Dasuku Hedgehog was found within the forest Merlin's home resided in, starving and dehydrated to the point of being on the brink of death. The two foxes nursed him back to full heath and, grateful for their help, he pledged his allegiance to Miles, becoming the first of the Brotherhood. It was revealed that Dasuku had been chased from his village for speaking against the king, and also for telekinesis powers that many viewed as 'freakish'.
Shadow the Hedgehog originally set out to kill Miles on orders G.U.N. received from King Sonic, but after a brief clash with the forming Brotherhood revealed that he did not desire to be used as an assassin by someone he had once respected. He became the second member of the Brotherhood of Aurelius, his powers presiding over the Chaos Force.
The next to join was Ice, a former Dark Legionnaire who had left the group of soldiers when they became the Dark Egg Legion. A strange mutation in an experiment had made his fur blue – a colour uncommon amongst echidnas – but not only that, the mutation had also given him the power to control fire, a mockery of his name. He became the third of the Brotherhood when a scuffle with Dasuku lead to Miles recruiting him after seeing his abilities.
The last to arrive was a cat named Sanae. A ninja by trade, her family had been killed when King Sonic's army invaded Cat Country. Seeking to avenge her kin and bring honour back to her family, she had heard rumours of the Brotherhood's existence and traversed the globe looking for them, believing they could help in her vengeance. She became the fourth and last member, her abilities lying in controlling the wind.
Now, after eight years of living in hiding and training under Merlin Prower, the Brotherhood of Aurelius is ready to take the Kingdom of Acorn and the world back from the once-hero that rules it so mercilessly.
And they will stop at nothing.

Is PA really in reach?
Drop the Democrat polling firm PPP out of the average and the trend is our friend in PA. With three weeks to go and NJ turning from Like Obama to Leans Obama, PA is not out of reach.
Coal country to the immediate north and especially to the east of Pittsburgh is FURIOUS -- I've seen many "Fire 0bama" signs on the US 22 and PA Turnpike corridors. This includes the areas that were Murtha's stomping grounds around Johnstown. This should take some of the usual support that might otherwise have come from the blue dog Dems around Pittsburgh.
I'll let some of the Eastern PA FReepers verify this, but other posters have been saying that the counties surrounding Philadelphia, which have shifted heavily Dem in the last 20 years, seem also to be less supportive of 0bama than they have been of other Dems lately.
The degree of Philly vote fraud is always a question... I think they're going to have to work overtime this year if they want to manufacture this one.
Also, Casey is up this year... hopefully Romney will have some coattails and help deliver a victory for Smith.
I live just to the east of Pittsburgh. An area that leans Democrat. I have a Democratic house member Jason Altmire. He is gone now because of redistricting. I drive around Pittsburgh and I see 20 Romney signs for every one Obama sign. I have talked to total strangers and we feel each other out by discussing the economy. Once that is complete, we confide in each other that we want Romney to win. This has happened over and over again. I have not met one stranger or someone I knew that wants Obama to win. I think Romney wins PA on the way to a landslide victory. I have fireworks ready. If Romney wins or Romney wins PA before 10 pm, I will set them off in my yard. I new Independence day. I have a retired school teacher that told me her and her husband and her family in Fl changed from Democrats to Republicans this year to vote for Mitt in the Primaries. A SCHOOL TEACHER! The people get it. We are seeing as many Fire Obama save coal signs as Romney signs. I count them as Romney signs.
I would think that Killadelphia is an Obama stronghold, but I also have hope that the Pennsylvania coal miners rally together and turn the state bright red.

Just a quick update!
Things are moving along quite well at the moment. I've been spending as much time as I can in between moving house, city & jobs to try and get the next incremental prototype done. At this stage i've been sorting out the rendering engine, collision systems and squad mechanics which hopefully should put us in a good position to start seeing the seeds of gameplay bear fruit..
Other than that I've been doing some thinking about the Xbox360 version of the game & regarding some additions and alterations i'd like to make. Predominantly regarding the prospects of multiplayer since I feel the structure of the game would really be suited to supporting simultaneous 4 player action. However this would consequently provoke further design changes which could be made in accordance (to balance out the restriction of locking a single player to a single merc by adding another layer to the squad system which enhances the experience in another way...) This is all speculative however and may or maynot happen depending on what's resolved once I discuss it with rooster properly, but I do think it could be really cool to play coop (and maybe add online coop support depending on whether MS get their act together and add network support to GSE.. /pipedream..)
Anyways I'll be pushing hard on development in the next few months so hopefully we'll have some new media to showcase soon..

"Uncaring Unproffesional, NO Confidentiality"
About: Colchester General Hospital Colchester General Hospital Colchester CO4 5JL
Posted via NHS Choices
Anything else?
My mother was taken to A and E last Friday evening with a very high blood sugar level 38.2. She was left in a bay for over 5 hours with very little attention they took blood and that was it. During the 5 and half hours we were there no offer of a drink or something to eat for a very frail old lady. I had to ask for a bed pan for mum, ignored the first time, had to ask again and was told we are busy its changeover time, my reply to this nurse was well the choice is yours bed pan or clean sheets and matress. needless to say a bedpan was brought. Had my mother not had me with her she would no doubt still be waiting. The Dr was uncaring and told us we could go after 5 and half hours even though sugat levels were still very high. When I questioned as to whethere I should stop the energy drinks that the hospital had supplied mum with was told no. This Dr could barely speak English. The next day my mums sugar levels were up again off the scale in fact. The on call Dr dealt with this. One other point I want to raise. The sister made a telephone call to The Night Shelter to get a place for a patient she openly divulged patients name the fact she had suffered domestic abuse, date of birth and the fact that she had spent 3 nights on a park bench in Clacton. I think this is disgusting breach of Confidentiality.

Barbara Boxer Key Figure in Transportation Act
"Any chance of reforming the transportation bill, which advocates are clamoring for, will require deft political maneuvering to mollify ranking committee member Senator James Inhofe.
Several sources said that Boxer's cooperation with Inhofe is simple math. The $312 billion baseline for transportation over five years is insufficient to meet state of good repair needs and set the country on a course for innovation. Minnesota Representative James Oberstar, chair of the House Transportation Committee, has suggested $400-500 billion would be needed, while AASHTO and the American Public Transit Association (APTA) argue in their Bottom Line Report that at least $160 billion will be needed annually. In order get from $312 billion to $500 billion or better, Boxer will need to get approval for new revenue streams, which would require a filibuster-proof majority, something she might not get without Inhofe and other reluctant members on the committee.
Several interviewees also pointed to Senator Boxer's alliance with Inhofe on an amendment in the federal stimulus bill for an additional $50 billion in highway money as a bad sign."

Private Health Insurance Coverage:
Expert Views on Approaches to Encourage Voluntary Enrollment
GAO-11-392R: Published: Feb 25, 2011. Publicly Released: Mar 25, 2011.

Office of Public Affairs

To help expand health insurance coverage among the 50 million uninsured Americans, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act as amended (PPACA) mandates that individuals, subject to certain exceptions, obtain health insurance coverage or pay a financial penalty beginning in 2014--the "individual mandate". At the same time, PPACA generally requires insurers to accept all applicants, regardless of health status, and prohibits insurers from excluding coverage based on any preexisting conditions. An individual mandate such as PPACA requires has been the subject of continued debate. Many health care policy experts have stressed the importance of a mandate in expanding health care coverage and keeping premiums affordable. For example, experts have noted that such a federal requirement may be necessary to prompt many individuals, such as younger, healthier individuals, to obtain coverage they otherwise would forego--particularly once they are guaranteed access to that coverage later when they may need it. They suggest that bringing these younger, healthier individuals into the insurance market is necessary to avoid adverse selection, whereby disproportionately less healthy individuals who need health care services enroll in coverage, leading to higher premiums that further discourage healthy individuals from enrolling. Some experts have argued that the individual mandate does not go far enough to ensure that all of the uninsured enroll, and that to do so would require heavier penalties that are fully enforced to be truly effective. Other experts suggest that, rather than requiring individuals to obtain health insurance coverage, a more appropriate role for the federal government would be to consider alternatives to encourage voluntary enrollment. Some of these experts also question the legality of a federal mandate. Since its enactment, the federal mandate has been subject to a number of court challenges to its constitutionality. Because of the possibility that legislative or judicial action could result in a change to, or elimination of, the mandate, you asked us to identify potential alternatives to encourage, rather than require individuals to obtain private health insurance coverage. For this report, we obtained the views of multiple experts on the range of approaches Congress could consider to encourage voluntary enrollment in private health insurance coverage.
The experts we interviewed discussed several specific approaches to encourage voluntary health insurance enrollment during our interviews. The approaches are summarized below, generally presented in the order of frequency with which they were proposed by the experts for consideration. These approaches are not endorsed by GAO, nor necessarily by any particular experts we interviewed, or the organizations they represent. (1) Modify open enrollment periods and impose late enrollment penalties. (2) Expand employers' roles in autoenrolling and facilitating employees' health insurance enrollment. (3) Conduct a public education and outreach campaign. (4) Provide broad access to personalized assistance for health coverage enrollment. (5) Impose a tax to pay for uncompensated care. (6) Allow greater variation in premium rates based on enrollee age. (7) Condition the receipt of certain government services upon proof of health insurance coverage. (8) Use health insurance agents and brokers differently. (9) Require or encourage credit rating agencies to use health insurance status as a factor in determining credit ratings. In discussing these approaches, four key themes emerged. First, experts emphasized that most people would prefer to purchase health insurance coverage; however, to the extent that high cost is a barrier, the use of financial incentives is key. Second, they stated that regardless of the particular approach taken to increase voluntary enrollment in the absence of an individual mandate, the availability of affordable, high-quality health care plans with a basic set of benefits, and full coverage of preventive care services is essential to encouraging voluntary enrollment in the coverage. Third, experts said that strong marketing and public education from trusted, community-based sources informing people about their health care choices, their costs, and the consequences of not enrolling in a timely manner are important. And fourth, they said convenient access to the health insurance system through multiple access points staffed by knowledgeable individuals would further facilitate enrollment. Experts expressed important cautions in interpreting their comments on these approaches. Not all the experts concurred that any particular approach merited consideration, and those who proposed an approach for consideration did not necessarily suggest its impact would be significant or comparable to that of an individual mandate. Experts noted that various approaches would have different impacts on encouraging voluntary enrollment, and that a combination of multiple approaches holds more potential to encourage voluntary enrollment than any single approach. For example, a marketing and public education campaign may be combined with other approaches, and would be important to the successful implementation of any effort to encourage enrollment in health insurance. Furthermore, they emphasized that independent research is required to fully evaluate the potential effectiveness and legal or other implications associated with any approach or combination of approaches.

- Turning Your Passion Into Profit: Starting a Small Business
Posted by : Amanda Stein Thursday, March 28, 2013
At family potlucks you're told you need to start your own cupcake business because your cupcakes are so moist, fluffy and delicious. While handing out homemade birthday cards to friends they swear it's store bought because it looks so good (all thanks to your Cricut machine). You've redecorated your home a few times and your friends enlist your help for their home, too, because they swear you are a bona fide home decorator.
Whatever your passion is, isn't it about time you create your own business? Where do you start? What do you do? Well, start at the beginning by creating a business plan and budget.
Financing Your Dream
To follow your dream and start your business you're going to need start-up funding. Often times new business owners will reach into their pockets and use their personal cards and accounts to start off, which is a big mistake. Not only will it lead you to potential debt but it will get you in the bad habit of always reaching for your personal finances for your business. Instead you should be paying for everything business related with your own business credit card. You can easily manage your cash flow with a Plum Card, as well as obtain special deals and discounts for paying early or on time.
If you need a little help through loans, the Small Business Association (SBA) can help you. According to SBA.gov, the 7(a) Loan Program is the most common loan program for small business owners, which includes financial help for those business with special requirements. Another great loan program is the 504. According to SBA, the $50 billion in 504 loans has created over 2 million jobs, which help to stimulate the economy. This loan has proven time and again a win-win-win for the business, the community and participating lenders.
Location, Location, Location
Location is everything. It is a crucial decision. It's also one you have to make early in the process. Try to imagine all of the potential benefits and drawbacks before committing to a space. Make checklists and inspect the property ruthlessly.
- Look at your demographics – who are you trying to sell to?
- Assess your supply chain – is it important to be located fairly close to them?
- Look at your competition – how close will they be?
- Stay on budget.
- Understand your borough, city, county or state laws and taxes.
- Make sure the neighborhood you're considering is business-friendly.
- Is the space usable without expensive remodeling or modifications?
Sometimes hitting the pavement and passing out coupons, deals and discounts isn't enough. You're only reaching a fraction of your potential customers. Through social media and online markets you can hit your specific demographic and customer. If you're willing to commit, the benefits of blogging are worth the investment of time. You may even reach an audience you didn't think possible. Social media is a MUST for small businesses to build brand recognition. Social media may not be the only marketing tactic you employ, but it is an inexpensive and valuable grass-roots marketing tactic.
