I've been reading around in vain, Hubs & the forums, I've pretty much learned how to add the referrals on hubs and backlinking. Though I cant figure out how to get the referral working for my profile page to get a new user to sign up. I cannot link to the sign up page, cause i'm logged in. Its pretty confusing. I tried typing it manually the code and then hyperlinking it, where it says edit profile. It ends up going to the hubpages sign up screen but without my code in it..... Any tips on how you guys did it. Much appreciated. Thank you so much in advance fellas!

Your link to the signup page should look something like this:
http:// hubpages.com/_YourTrackerGoesHere/user/new/ (note, I added a space between :// and hubpages to deactivate the link for this post)
If you are not logged in the link will take you to the HubPages sign up page. Note, all trackers quickly disappear after clicking. You'll see it for a spilt second before it arrives to the page. This is normal.
I hope this helps. :)

Omg thank you so much miss olive, really you have a gift for dumbastic hubbers like me. All that was missing in my link was the / after typing out http://hubpages.com i saw it wrong somewhere and going to notify the writer. Thank you so much!
I do exactly what, or what I believe to be exactly... And I attempt to apply it to my profile page and all I get is an inaccessible link that shows my tracker number on it... It really is confusing to say the least.. Claytons was a typo and easy fix
1) you need to be signed off of HubPages (like the general visitor that does not have a HubPages account)
2) the link should look like this, http:// hubpages.com/_YourTrackerGoesHere/user/new/ (remove the GAP between the // and h)
That does sound confusing and frustrating. I haven't experienced that confusion of frustration as I mostly link to another page rather than the sign up page if I am trying to get people to join HubPages using my referral link - and those other links are easy to get on the appropriate page I want to link to - at the usual place at the bottom of the screen, where it says "link to this page."
I prefer to send possible referrals to pages other than the sign up page as other pages are more interesting, in my opinion, like the HubPages Success Stories page or The Learning Centre page.

Teresa, I agree with you, I prefer the 'link to this page' option when creating referral trackers within a url. Unfortunately, that will not work for the sign up page on HubPages, which is what Clayton Fernandes was attempting to do.

Engaging citizens is a theme that has come up several times in recent months. What should the city do to ensure participation on key decisions and attract more involvement in community and government issues?
Ward 1
Government decisions should be representative of the entire community. We should embrace the opportunity to engage all voices in our City's upcoming visioning process by implementing innovative methods that encourage more resident participation.
I believe we need to find non-traditional ways to engage residents and broaden our toolbox through technological resources. Residents with busy schedules don't always have the time to attend public meetings. Internet engagement tools are more accessible, and creative applications are available that engage citizens in both idea generation and dialogue. Mission is moving in the right direction by redesigning the City's website with a focus on resident awareness and participation.
However, we can do more. One example of an innovative tool Mission could use to attract more resident participation is Mindmixer. It acts as an online virtual town hall, allowing residents to participate in conversations with each other, share ideas, and generate feedback. This tool accommodates busy schedules by providing 24/7 access throughout a planning process. Through tools like Mindmixer, involvement with government issues becomes a fun, creative, social networking opportunity, reenergizing people who've become disconnected from civic life.
I believe we must invest in our community by engaging new voices to help define our future. This investment leads to innovative and creative policy. If we don't take responsibility and utilize innovative resources, we will lose this opportunity to engage residents in the update process of the City of Mission's Community Vision Plan, and to keep them engaged beyond that process.
With my B.A. from St. Benedict's (Benedictine) College, a 40-year successful business career, a volunteer at two local charities, and a Mission resident of 34 years, I think that the city should improve their website to have easier access for all. The city should send out mailers alerting residents to sign up for email newsletters so that they can remain informed of city business and issues. The website would also serve as a forum for residents to express their wants and needs. The newsletters would be quarterly and present key issues coming before the city council; those wanting to receive this information via regular mail could do so also. I also think that branding (marketing) is a key component and the city needs to create a logo and a slogan. This can easily be used on letterhead, envelopes, business cards, etc., with the new logo and slogan all tied to the website.
The city should have open dialogue to all city residents to establish a two-way conversation thus creating an inviting, friendly, problem solving government that they can depend upon; the city must be honest and straightforward and not withhold information. These practices will deliver value to all residents that live in Mission and help promote all of those who have a business within the city.
Ward 2
In order to drive participation on key decisions and attract more involvement in community and government issues, the city should first start by ramping up its own involvement with the residents and businesses.
I believe there are three key factors that affect participation and involvement.
- 1.) Communication/Awareness – People should stay informed. Some residents have voiced that they were unaware of issues in the past, and felt they weren't even given the opportunity to participate. Since communication and awareness is a two-way street, everyone should have the option of utilizing the same tools/procedure to contribute in informing others. Mission has many great communication tools already. Using them more often and more affectively could really drive awareness.
- 2.) Empowerment/Incentive – Some have shared past experiences of feeling like they have no voice or say in community or government issues. This needs to change. People should feel welcomed and invited to contributing to anything impacting our city. The city should give recognition and incentive to individuals for their participation and involvement more often. Certificates, awards, or even daily Pool/Community Center Passes would be great incentives to drive involvement.
- 3.) Consistency – We all have our own lives. Family, job, pets, etc. This is where the city should step in. The city should take on the responsibility of communication and engagement with everyone on every level. Council members could present their Ward updates during a monthly meeting, keeping the entire City Government aware of actions taken and give recognition to the many moving parts of continuous and successful city communications.
Keeping these key factors in mind, the city should adopt an on-going 'Community Engagement' (as a whole) procedure.
If a Community Engagement process is implemented into the city's daily tasks, these affective tasks would transition into affective habits.
Presently, the City of Mission reaches out to its citizens through various avenues. There is an information section in the Mission Magazine which has a listing of the upcoming events and information from each of the city departments. Additionally, the Mission Magazine has a letter from the mayor with a status report on the City.
The City has a website as well as a Facebook page and uses these to continually keep citizens and business owners informed about street issues. My Ward has quarterly meetings at the community center where citizens can come and visit with their ward representatives. I am always answering phone calls from citizens to listen to concerns they may have and address them as best I can.
There are some new and innovative ideas that some other cities are trying on their websites that are bringing the citizens into the budget process to get their opinions on what is most important to them on where the City should spend their money. I am looking forward to exploring these ideas and find out how well they are working to see if they will be useful for citizen to better engage the City.
Ward 3
Debbie Kring (incumbent unopposed)
Engaging citizens in the decision-making process is one of the key functions that an elected official provides. In Ward 3, besides the City committee meetings and City Council meetings (currently there are two committee meetings and one city council meeting held each month), another option for hearing citizen concerns is through our quarterly citizen meetings. These are held the third Thursday evening in January, April, July, and October, and serve as a platform for giving constituents updates on city issues in a more informal setting, while listening to concerns and hearing suggestions or ideas for community improvements. These ward meetings are advertised on both the City's website and my website (https://www.debbiekring.com). I encourage community members to attend these forums.
In addition, I post information such as street project updates on my website and encourage citizens to contact me with any other information they would like to see me add to my website. I also have a 24-hour turnaround process, whereby my constituents can call, e-mail, or use any other means of communication with a concern/problem, and I will follow up the same day.
I attend most community events, have a presence at city hall, and am accessible through numerous venues, including: in person, by phone, on Facebook, and at public meetings, to name a few.
I have a vested interest in serving the citizens of Ward 3 in Mission, as I believe in neighborhoods, community involvement, and citizen participation at all levels. Having served on the City Council for 15 years, I believe my understanding of complex city issues, coupled with my experience in seeking positive outcomes to those issues, is a benefit to my constituents.
Ward 4
Citizen engagement and citizen involvement!; a very key issue in the success of any organization/city. Mission has many opportunities to engage and get our residents involved. Take for example the East Gateway planning, the City's form based code, Mission's new swimming pool, rental inspections – all of these issues were put before the people by way of a task force or public committees. Mission holds meetings (i.e. committee, work sessions, council) every Wednesday night, which are open to the public with a special designated "Public Comments" on the City Council agenda. We hold quarterly morning updates, our staff compiles a weekly update, which is available to the public, and our web site is being updated as we speak.
How do we ensure more participation – I wish I had the answer. One of my pet peeves is when I receive a call from a resident telling me about an issue that is not even close to what is actually happening, and yet they have not bothered to attend a meeting but are listening to the negative outputs. We give our residents the opportunities; few act on them. So, I am saying – if you want to get involved, call me! If you want the answers to questions, call me! I do not just represent Ward 4, I represent the City of Mission. If you have ideas, give me a call – we need to keep implementing new ways to make Mission the best city we can. If I don't have the answers, I will get them for you.
I chair the Mission Convention and Visitors Bureau, which is responsible for the many events that take place in Mission. We are always looking for volunteers to help with our events, take a Thanksgiving meal to a family, wrap gifts at Christmas – great ways to get involved. Other City committees need volunteers as in cleaning our creeks, picking up trash, painting houses – another very worthwhile involvement. So, we have the opportunities – let me know how you would like to be involved. Want to serve on the next task force or be appointed to a city board? Please let us know. My e-mail is [email protected] or you can call me at 913-671-8564.
The more citizen involvement, the less likelihood for mistakes. Had more citizens been involved and privy to the deals being made perhaps the infrastructure "improvements" related to East Gateway would have been postponed until the developer was financially solvent.
While the timing of the public improvements (stormwater) at the Gateway site can be frustrating for us, we should remember that permits for grading, construction, etc. could never have been issued until the improvements were completed to take the property out of the 100-year flood-plain.
Addressing the flood plain may be a good thing but not seven years before the first (and last since last summer) shovel of dirt has been turned.
Keeping citizens informed, in my opinion, is vital. I've been trying to do this via the SaveMission.net website for the last four years. This administration has (at times) worked against me and tried to shut down lines of communication. That's not acceptable.
In 2010, all the incumbents in Mission ran unopposed. I don't believe that was due to people being thrilled with the state of our city, but more to a climate of apathy. We can't let that happen again. Not getting involved and not taking action has cost us deeply— and not just financially.
Our goal should be getting new faces and new ideas on our commissions and committees. For the last twelve years, Mission's citizens and business owners have sadly become accustomed to being treated with disdain and disrespect. I believe once we take back ownership and responsibility for our city that will change. Once the citizens of Mission become accustomed to their voices being heard and respected, it will really change. And once they start to see positive results, actual progress that they themselves have contributed to, there will be no stopping them!
Tomorrow we will publish candidates' answers to our second question:
What issues do you believe will have the most effect on your ward in the next four years and how would you address them?

Aviation professionals from round the world descended on London to attend Vistair's first-ever event specifically for users of its Document management service, DocuNet™.
Airlines including Thomas Cook, Loganair, Flybe, Saudi Arabian, easyJet, British Airways, BMI Regional, TAG, Flydubai, Condor and Norwegian were all represented at the event which took place in the Radisson Blu Hotel, Heathrow.
After hearing about the latest news and innovations from Vistair founders Ian Herbert and David Hedley, attendees were given a demonstration of the company's latest management solution, TechLog, currently being trialled by Flybe.
There was also a chance to meet Mark Lynam, Head of Global Logistics for Vistair, as well as other members of the Vistair team who were on hand to provide "live" demonstrations of the latest versions of Vistair's market-leading software products.
Afterwards Ian Herbert said: "It was a real privilege to see so many of our clients together in the same place and I was delighted by how many took the time to come and attend the event.
"There's a huge shift taking place in the airline industry right now, particularly in relation to document management and the move to digital, and it is vitally important for us to demonstrate that Vistair is at the leading edge of these developments."

Thanks in advance! sigilyph in-game-team black-white-2 sweeper asked Apr 10, 2014 by SSJ One of the best sweepers imo commented Apr 21, 2014 by AegisDatLash Please log in or register to add a comment. Please log in or register to answer this question. 1 Answer 0 votes Best answer Sigilyph can sweep, but it needs to set up enough Cosmic Powers to do so with Stored Power. Sigilyph is rarely be Life Orbed, even with Magic Guard, due to how frail it is and being outclassed by Alakazam. If you really want, you can run a similar set to Clefable: Sigilyph @ Life Orb Ability: Magic Guard EVs: 252 HP, 252 Sp. Atk, 4 Def Nature: Modest - Cosmic Power - Roost - Air Slash - Stored Power The best way to use Sigilyph as a sweeper is to spam stat boosts. It could probably run a Tinted Lens set, but to be honest Magic Guard is far superior as an ability. answered Apr 10, 2014 by fondant selected Apr 21, 2014 by SSJ I mean is it good to sweep with moves other than cosmic power? Like psychic,air slash etc. commented Apr 10, 2014 by SSJ Well that's kinda what the Life Orb Magic Guard set was. Otherwise, no. It has to spam stat boosts to be a decent sweeper. You could slap a scarf on it and give it Tinted Lens, but that's not using it to its full potential. commented Apr 10, 2014 by fondant Sigilyph is frail??? Compared to talonflame it looks bulky to ne as well as alakazam and tinted lens is a great ability as it allows sigilyph to stay in on common switchins,and sweep better. Slower steel types like heatran and skarmory will think twice about switching in on a psychic/shock or airslash. Remember 72/80/80 isnt bad for a sweeper. I would experiment with it and see what works best for you. I used to be like you asking other people for advice on movsets but you learn the most by battling practice with sigilyph on Pokemon showdown and see how much you like it. commented Oct 13, 2014 by jay101789 edited Oct 13, 2014 by Fizz Please log in or register to add a comment.

Buick has inked a three-year marketing deal with the NCAA that is seen to be another attempt by the brand to get out of its grandfatherly image. At a press conference, Tony DiSalle, vice president of marketing for Buick, said that the brand had wanted a high profile platform that was 'large enough' to build on the momentum that it has already established in the market.
Under this sponsorship, commercials for the Buick Regal and LaCrosse sedans will air during the NCAA men's basketball tournament. DiSalle added that the NCAA audience represents the "right customers for Buick" as they are "affluent and highly educated."
Buick takes the opportunity to fill the void left by Pontiac, which had been an NCAA sponsor before it was terminated in 2009. Chris Perry, GM's head of U.S. marketing, said that this deal gives a wider audience than Buick's sponsorship of the PGA tour, which ended in 2009.
This marketing deal actually goes beyond basketball as it will include college football, women's soccer and the Frozen Four hockey tournament. Last year, GM overhauled Buick's marketing department.
This sponsorship marks the first major campaign since then. Under the leadership of Joel Ewanick, GM's global marketing chief, the company has rekindled advertising and sponsorship ties with major events, including the Super Bowl and World Series.

The Oscar-winning actor passed away aged 63 after committing suicide, reported Digital Spy.
Two classic episodes of 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' featuring the actor will be repeated, including his first appearance in 1988 during which he spoke about filming 'Good Morning, Vietnam'.
Williams visited Winfrey's chat show 14 times. A second episode, originally broadcast in 1991, will also be repeated.
The first hour will see the star share "deeply personal stories about filming Good Morning, Vietnam, his early childhood and more".
The second show will see him open up to Winfrey about everything from drug abuse, what being married to him was like, fatherhood, working on the feature films 'The Fisher King' and 'Dead Poets Society', his creative inspiration and his thoughts on ageing and turning 40.
Winfrey, 60, also paid tribute to the late legend earlier in the week, thanking him for 'all the great interviews'.

Quotes after the race in Shanghai
Ingolstadt/Shanghai, November 28, 2010 - Just one day after his serious accident in qualifying Timo Scheider mounted the podium at the DTM's world finale in Shanghai (China) as the third-placed driver. Quotes from the Audi camp after the race.
Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich (Head of Audi Motorsport)
"The team did a truly fantastic job and completely repaired Timo Scheider's car that had been very heavily damaged in the qualifying accident from scratch again overnight. Everyone was helping each other in this effort. It's a remarkable feat to drive such a strong race and to clinch third place in this car. By taking third, fourth and fifth place we've achieved a good result. Obviously a little more would have been nicer but that was unfortunately not possible due to our grid positions. I think that despite all the initial difficulties this has been a worthy and interesting DTM finale. Congratulations to Paul Di Resta on winning the title. He was very strong this year."
Timo Scheider (GW:plus/Top Service Audi A4 DTM #1), 3rd place
"Standing on the podium after the turbulent qualifying and the scrap I left behind is almost a bit unexpected. The guys did an incredible job. Everyone from Audi and every Abt mechanic put all their energy into my car last night. It wasn't just my mechanics but also those of the other drivers. This is what makes it all so special, to feel how much of a team and family spirit we've got. It makes me feel proud to be a part of that. I'm very happy that by taking third place today I'm able to pay back a little of it. It's clear, too, that the guys are tired and will not be celebrating this third place. But to me it was important to clinch this result and to start the winter break this way. It's nice to know that I'm backed by such an outstanding team."
Martin Tomczyk (Red Bull Cola Audi A4 DTM #6), 4th place
"Now we've experienced a nice conclusion in Shanghai after all, at which there were fortunately no incidents. My race was okay. I'm pretty happy to have advanced from eighth to fourth place. I had some very tough battles and managed to stand my ground in all of them. It was fun and the pace was good. For me this ends a season that was very much fair to middling on a positive note."
Miguel Molina (Audi Bank A4 DTM #18), 5th place
"This was a nice as well as a difficult race. I enjoyed it very much. Our pace was fantastic. I was able to make up two places although I was blocked by other drivers who disregarded the blue flags. I'm pleased with my race and with my season as the best rookie. Next year will even be better."
Markus Winkelhock (Playboy/GW:plus Audi A4 DTM #14), 7th place
"I'm not happy because I could have easily finished in fourth place. The pace was there - the car had it and so did I. I felt comfortable on the track but our strategy was completely off the mark. Twice I went out behind another car and lost a lot of time. In the end I was running behind Jamie Green and lost so much time that I dropped from fourth place to seventh. Considering this, the fact that I scored points for the second consecutive time is not a lot of consolation."
Mattias Ekstrom (Red Bull Audi A4 DTM #5), 9th place
"The race was a bit boring. Unfortunately, balance was not as good as it had been in the warm-up session. That was frustrating because I had to fight a lot. In the end I finished in the same place I'd started from. But more would definitely have been possible."
Mike Rockenfeller (S line Audi A4 DTM #10), 12th place
"This was absolutely not our weekend. Still, I'm very pleased with my year with Team Phoenix. It was great. We had our highlights. Seventh place in the championship isn't bad. But, nonetheless, our result in Shanghai isn't satisfactory. We tried everything. In the end I even tried to pass Susie (Stoddart). But the track was so bumpy and one of the wheels immediately locked. I brushed her and we spun. I'm sorry about that, also because it caused the race having to be stopped."
Katherine Legge (Glamour Audi A4 DTM #15), 14th place
"The race could have turned into a good one for us today but for various reasons things weren't going in our favor. That's disappointing. The good thing is that we clearly increased our pace in the season's final two races. I'll try and continue this performance. China was definitively a worthwhile experience. It was totally different than on any of the other tracks. It's nice that we ran here."
Oliver Jarvis (Tabac Original Audi A4 DTM #2), 17th place
"We really had a good pace but the race was frustrating. Unfortunately we always missed the mark with respect to our positions in traffic. I had the feeling that Bruno Spengler should have received blue flags because he slowed us for several laps. In the end I ran over a piece of bodywork that was on the track. That's why I had to come in for an additional pit stop. The pace was good today but unfortunately it didn't produce a result in the points."
Hans-Jurgen Abt (Team Director Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline)
"We showed that the team sticks together tremendously. After yesterday's accident we made the best of the situation. 'Well done,' everyone did a flawless job, the strategy was superb. We brought all the cars forward, almost every driver improved. That's a respectable showing. Unfortunately the race being stopped put us out of contention for victory. The last eight minutes would have turned into some real nail-biters. China is a very important market. If everyone works together to make things even better, we'll be very happy to come back here."
Ernst Moser (Team Director Audi Sport Team Phoenix)
"When we saw that we were stuck in traffic we called in Mike Rockenfeller early for both of his stops. So we chose a different strategy. We were continuously stuck behind Susie (Stoddart), which meant we simply couldn't influence the race. We wanted to achieve the best possible result but only finished twelfth, which is a shame. Now the season is over. I'd like to express huge praise to my squad which showed a tremendous commitment through to the final race. They gave everything even in difficult conditions."
Arno Zensen (Team Director Audi Sport Team Rosberg)
"We saw a good finale. Thank God the race ended without any accidents except for a little encounter at the end. Markus (Winkelhock) was very good throughout the weekend. Today a better result would have been possible. We should have finished at least in fifth place. Unfortunately he hit traffic, we had to change our strategy and Markus again got caught in a pack. A real shame! Katherine (Legge) drove very good lap times. But she, unfortunately, often got stuck in traffic as well. But we've seen a positive weekend. Markus scored points for the second consecutive time. He showed that he's got what it takes!"

Black toenail fungus infection, or onychomycosis, occurs when fungus develops beneath the toenail surface, causing toenails to become thick, brittle, dull and discoloured. If not treated, onychomycosis can cause foot odour and toenail pain. People who have had toenail injuries, athlete's foot or weak immune systems are most at risk for developing this infection. While onychomycosis can be stubborn, treatment and constant monitoring can improve the condition of toenails and slowly cure the fungus infection.
Make an appointment with a primary care physician or a podiatrist (foot specialist), who may prescribe an oral antifungal medication to help eliminate the fungus. Oral medication is given for those for moderate to severe cases of fungal infections. Oral medication will also work with any topical medication suggested or prescribed. The doctor may also recommend an antifungal nail lacquer to help eliminate and prevent future fungus.
It may be worthwhile to purchase an over-the-counter topical antifungal cream if it is not possible to see a doctor or if the beginnings of a black fungal infection are evident. Ask the pharmacist for recommendations. It may take longer to see results from an over-the-counter topical medication than an oral prescription since the dosage of active medication will not be as strong as prescription medication. If infection worsens or no improvement is seen, seek attention from a primary care physician or podiatrist.
Fill a bucket, or other container large enough to hold both feet, with two parts warm water to one part vinegar. Add a handful of epsom salt. Soak feet in the mixture for 20 to 30 minutes. Be sure to rinse and dry feet thoroughly; fungus thrives in moist areas.
Soak daily unless irritation develops; then increase the amount of water and soak only two or three times a week. The epsom salt dries the fungus, working deep in the layers of the nail. The high vinegar's high aciditycan kill the fungus as well.
This routine should be followed until the infection begins to cure. Then, lessen the number of times per week the soak is used until the infection has completely resolved.
Wash feet and toes with antibacterial soap in the morning and at night, taking care to dry thoroughly toes and nails in addition with the soaking regiment.
Keep toenails trimmed short and even. Short toenails will be easier to maintain and clean during this infection period. Avoid nail polishes since the fungus can spread to other toes through the brush. Soak clippers in rubbing alcohol to disinfect them after every use.
Avoid wearing tight socks or tight shoes, which can cause feet to sweat and trap moisture.
Always wear shoes in public showers, pools and gyms to avoid future infections. Be diligent with this regimen to remove the infection from your toenails.

Most corpsmen count the number lost, not the number saved. My number is too high to list, though I have stars that say different. "If Only I'd. . ." still wakes me at night, though the shadows are quieter and going away since I've gotten a couple (not one, you can trust two maube, not one, so I have three) good dogs. 3/3 says there's something there -- usually a deer, but you can be ready and not surprised by family or company. Ever, and that's a good thing!
As the wife of a Viet Nam vet, I began to accompany my husband on the annual Fallen Warrior Foundation retreats in 1999 after he had hit the wall struggling to manage his PTSD. He had reached the point of feeling that there were few, if any, options left. After our first experience it became immediately apparent that what we learned was going to be highly beneficial to him, to our family, our marriage, and to me. I have attended 8 of the past 11 retreats. Three with my husband and five after his death several years ago. I return year after year because I, as a "veteran wife," feel the need to support and be supported by a wonderful group of caring and compassionate people. In an era when everything seems to be on double fast forward, it is remarkable how beneficial it is to receive instruction on how to slow down, shut up, sit quietly, breathe...how to create a different relationship with our thoughts and that which sends us spinning. My being a part of this particular veteran community is a privledge. I am honored by the legacy that my husband left to me.
To whom it may concern, My name is Michael Sills and my father is a Vietnam veteran. I attended the Fallen Warriors retreat because I was having difficulty coming to terms with that relationship. Furthermore, it was an exceptionally difficult time in my life – in short, I had recently survived a bout with cancer, had become disabled and was stagnating. My time at the retreat was very personal and it is difficult for me to write about. However, the experience was, for lack of better words, spiritual: initially painful, then cleansing and, ultimately, healing. It was one of the defining moments in my life.
I was introduced to the Veterans Retreat organized by the Fallen Warriors Foundation by my counselor at the Tacoma, WA Vet Center (a prior attendee) in 2003. I have missed only one retreat since due to scheduling problems. The meditation practice lead by Claude-Anshin Thomas has made a major difference in my ability to function with my Vietnam combat induced PTSD. My wife has attended two retreats as well and it made a positive difference in our relationship. I have actively promoted the retreat among my acquaintences and last year intoduced it to two new Vet Center counselors, who plan to go back as well. Colleen and Jack have for years carried this project on their backs and are two of the most straightforward, emotionally honest, and compassionate people I have ever met.
I have attended the Fallen Wariors Retreat at least 5 or 6 times, starting in 1998, when I first was diagnosed with PTSD as a result of my year as a nurse in Viet Nam in 1970-71. Each and every time I have attended, the 4 days have been not only 'gut wrenching', and full of tears, but also very healing. I have to say that because of the Fallen Warriors Foundation sponsoring the retreats, I am still here today, a survivor, and at PEACE with my war experience
I have attended meditation retreats that were organized by Fallen Warriors Foundation. Not only have the retreats been very beneficial toward my own personal military experiences and their manifestation in my life today, my family and friends have benefited as well. Because Fallen Warriors have taken the risk of securing a retreat site without a financial commitment from the Veterans attending, I was able to benefit. I see how difficult it is to host the retreat when there are so many Veterans and their friends and families deciding to attend at the last minute. In addition, I received financial assistance for a partial scholarship to attend the retreat.
Dear Fallen Warriors Foundation, I am happy to recommend the Fallen Warriors Foundation as a not-for-profit organization helping veterans. The Fallen Warriors Retreat I attended was a benefit to me in many ways. As a combat veteran of Vietnam era, I was highly motivated in seeking help to understand what I had experienced in combat. I can't say it was a particular therapy or the leader that gave me a sense of safety, but a sharing of experiences with other veterans and learning to listen to them, changed me. I would give Fallen Warriors Foundation a 5 of 5 stars on any chart. I would attend again. I'm impressed enough with what the Fallen Warriors Foundation has done for veterans, that we started, (Jan 2010), a version of the Fallen Warriors Retreats here in Gilpin County Colorado. So yes, what Colleen O'Callaghan and Jack Estes have put together is of value and would be a big hole for many veterans if it were not available. Sincerely, Deni Darby Gilpin County Veterans Service Officer 2960 Dory Hill Rd. Suite 100 Black Hawk, Colorado 80422 (303) 582-5444 ex 1103
I am a disabled veteran of the Vietnam conflict and was diagnosed with PTSD in late 2000. After about a year of therapy my therapist told me of the Fallen Warriors retreat and suggested that I might find it useful. After much trepidation I attended my first of 8 or 9 retreats facilitated by Claude An Shin Thomas. The impact that these retreats have had upon me are beyond measure. The combination of quiet meditation and deep listening and thoughtful reflection help cut through the blockages that separate us from our true reality.
I was having a lot of trouble with nightmares, outbursts of rage, the usual PTSD symptoms. I attended a Fallen Warriors retreat and the work we did, writing, meditating, talking in groups about our experiences, all were a tremendous help to me. They emphasized no particular religion, but there was a Buddhist monk there who'd been a Vietnam veteran. Being able to ask him questions, how he dealt with the really big issues (like killing people), was exceedingly helpful. I came away not cured of PTSD, but confident that I could be, and having a group of people that I could stay in contact with. Very helpful to me.
I've attended two meditation retreats hosted by the Fallen Warriors Foundation on Veteran's Day weekend. The retreat is led by two mendicant Zen practitioners and is intended for Veterans and their families. While at this retreat I've met amazing people who have shared their experiences with me, as I have shared mine with them. Without the Fallen Warriors Foundation, I wouldn't have had such an opportunity.
I had the good fortune to attend my first meditation retreat on a scholarship and was so pleased and impressed with the experience that I have attended as often as possible. Meditation is a healthy and positive response to the symptoms of PTSD. Anything I can do to avoid medication is wanted and needed. Fallen Warriors have done a great job in caring for vets with PTSD! I rate then FIVE STARS PLUS!!! THANKS, TOM NORTON
Excellent. I attended their annual weekend retreat a few years ago which I found extremely healing by being in contact with other Veterans who also suffer from PTSD. The couple who have organized this effort are unbelievably dedicated and selfless. I believe that they should be supported in any way possible and strive to do that myself.

Lens Details :
diameter : 19.8mm
water content : 45%
base curve : 8.6mm
life span : 6 months
Price : IDR 120,000
Pattern : as i say before this has a unique pattern and some how this look like a anime eye for me.
Color : it has 3 colors in it which is black for the outer ring for big eye effect, then you got the yellow and gray mixture too. for me this is a weird and new color combination but surprisingly looks good on me.
Comfort : i say this is comfortable for me, it doesn't make my eyes itchy. i wore this for about 5 hours with out any solution, more than 5 hours it's start to bug me (blurry, itch and dry)
Enlargement : YES
i love the color, from far away you can tell that i wore a lens, and with a weird color mixture it's look normal and natural on my eye. the colors really pop up against my dark brown eyes. for me 5 hours is good enough for me.

When I started my business, the sky was the limit. But the more I did things a certain way, the more that simply became the way I did things. How much of how I do things today is because it's really how I want to do them?
I am not what you might consider a "normal" person. After getting a degree in graphic design, normal people would get a job at a design firm, and work their way up the corporate ladder.
Normal people wouldn't give up such a job in order to start their own design company. Normal people wouldn't create a unique career making music, kids cartoons and other tv shows, and killer brand images for awesome clients.
Security vs. Freedom
When I was young, I was always a great student. School came pretty easily to me, and I had very little difficulty getting good grades.
I was led to believe that my academic achievements would directly lead to equally satisfying achievements in my future career. I was taught that academic achievement guaranteed future financial security. It was a rude awakening when I found out the real world doesn't actually work that way.
The security of whatever job I had came at the cost of my freedom. I always had ideas that my bosses were not all that interested in implementing. Plus, my security was dependent on me doing things how they wanted, and only for as long as they felt I remained valuable to them. I had no control over my career, and no freedom to do the work I really wanted to do.
I was lucky enough to figure out quickly that if I wanted to have the kind of career I dreamed about, I was going to have to create it for myself.
When I started my business, the sky was the limit. Everything was a possibility. It was obvious to me early in my career that my freedom and my future depended on me doing things my way. But like any other, my own business was not immune to the laws of inertia. The more I did things a certain way, the more that simply became the way I did things.
That's why I've been thinking about security and freedom again lately.
What I Want vs. What's Comfortable
Even with all I do already that flies in the face of what is normal, there is much I've always planned for myself that I haven't been doing.
I have expansion plans for Fuelblue that I was hesitant to act on. I have had ideas for Planet Bonehead that I was nervous to implement. And I've had other business ideas that it just never seemed like I had the time for. And I'm sure if you're watching this far, you are already thinking of the things in your own life or business you've been back burnering.
"I'll do that later when I have more time."
"We'll start working on that once things settle down with this current crisis."
"We can't do something like that! What will the "So and so's" and "What's their faces" think?"
Sound familiar?
What the heck are we doing???
What are we waiting for?
We will never have "plenty of time", and today's fire to put out will usually have another right on its heels.

Governor Steve Beshear is encouraging small, women and minority-owned businesses to register as vendors with the Kentucky Office of Procurement Services. These businesses can participate in events throughout August that focus on developing minority owned businesses and establishing stronger supplier diversity efforts for public entities and private companies.
"The Commonwealth does millions of dollars in business with thousands of companies, both large and small," said Gov. Beshear. "Anytime we can support small, women and minority owned businesses, these businesses will grow, provide jobs and contribute to our state's economy."
The first event is today and will kick off a series of upcoming events that will focus on educating minority businesses on resources and opportunities with government. These events are open to the general public as well as businesses.

Biocitizen teaches environmental philosophy by
- introducing you to basic environmental ideas and issues through a process of reading, writing and discussion.
- bringing you to sites charged with natural and human history. There we apply our learning, interpreting our experiences together in focused discussions, and alone in our field journals.
Biocitizen's curriculum combines "book learning" with roaming, following the peripatetic tradition of Aristotle. During our expeditions, we closely observe the world as it presents itself to us, with the goal of perceiving biodiversity, and feeling the character of the biome.
There is a world out there that many of us have never experienced. It is our biome, the world we share with black bears and porcupines, and soil bacteria and cooper's hawks. It supports our civilization, and predates it.
The Northampton region (located on the right) showing names and infrastructures we associate with civilization.
Biocitizen courses begin with, and never entirely escape, the "built-up" world depicted in this map; but they provide you with the intellectual tools and physical experiences you need to recognize our biome, also known as the Nonotuck bioregion.
The watershed map (located on the right) depicts the same territory as the one above, but it is filtered to show the watersheds, each one of which has a character, and a biotic community.
You live on the map with the roads and municipal boundaries. Biocitizen intensives help you see, and inhabit, the biomes depicted on this map.

Lake-Thom, who has studied with the elders of many tribes, explains the significance of animal figures as manifestations of good or evil, and shows how we can develop our own powers of awareness and intuition. The first book of its kind, this practical and enlightening resource includes dozens of fascinating animal myths and legends, as well as exercises and activities that draw upon animal powers for guidance, healing, wisdom, and the expansion of spiritual influences in our lives. You'll discover here how animals, birds, and insects act as signs and omens; the significance of vision quests; how to make and use a medicine wheel; the role of spirit symbols - and how they affect the unconscious; exercises for creative dreaming; the power of the earth-healing ceremony; how to increase your spiritual strength and create sacred spaces; and more.
Native Americans believe that animal spirits can ultimately influence everyday lives. Lake-Thom, a healer and a descendant of three Native American tribes, combines his own experience, work with tribal elders, and readings from folk tales to explain the significance of good- and bad-luck symbols to these tribes. For instance, the hummingbird is considered to be a good-luck messenger that can carry a person's prayers to the Creator; in contrast, the owl is considered a sign of bad luck and a messenger of death. In a clear and straightforward writing style, the author defines symbols such as the turtle, bear, and coyote for Karuk, Seneca, and Cherokee tribes. He also includes several chapters on how one can get in touch with animal spirits through active participation in ceremonies and establishing sacred places. There is a helpful index and accompanying sketches. Recommended for public libraries.Vicki Leslie Toy Smith, Univ. of Nevada, Reno

SOTA Weight Loss supports and
encourages the Dignity Model
Dignity is our inherent value and worth as human beings; everyone is born with it. All of us know what it feels like to be marginalized and shamed, the hurt and embarrassment that can come when we are mistreated or misunderstood and our dignity is violated.
It does not mean there is something wrong with us, it means something wrong happened to us. No one can take our dignity away from us, it is always in our hands. It needs to be cared for and we are the only ones in charge of our dignity.

4.2.2 Create the triggers and actions to determine the interaction
1 Scope
This article describes how to create a personalized interactive video experience using Conducttr, YouTube videos and your own web server.
2 What does it do?
Every audience member can control their personalized path through a series of videos based on triggers they send from some other device. In the example below, a character from the video texts the viewer… the viewer replies… and the next video loads depending on the instruction given.
All the videos are hosted on YouTube and run on your webpage inside a Conducttr code snippet that listens for and sends instructions.
2.1 How does it work?
You'll need a web server to host three code snippets ("index.html", "video.php" and "api.php"), the Oauth library and a MySQL database.
The file "api.php" needs to be modified by adding the details of your database and details from your Conducttr project before being uploaded to your web host.
The three files and the Oauth library must be uploaded to the same folder in your Web host, otherwise you will need to change the path to "api.php" in "video.php" and the widget-addon, and the path to the Oauth Library in the "api.php.
The MySQL database remembers which audience member is watching which video. This allows many people to be active at the same time yet each watch a different video and have a personalized experience.
The server is able to send triggers to Conducttr based on video timeline cues (configured by you) and is able to change or select the correct video to play based on API calls from Conducttr.
The figure above shows how it all fits together:
- the audience visits a web page (hosted on your server) and enters some identification, such as a mobile number, into a modified Conducttr solo sign-up form ("add on" code snippet). This information is sent to Conducttr and it's also registered in the local database.
- when the form is submitted the web page redirects to a new page that holds the first video (the file "video.php"). As the video plays, the page watches the video and sends triggers to your Conducttr project to tell it how far along the playback timeline it is (see image below). It doesn't do this continually – you must identify the cues and configure your video player ( explain in point 3.3.2). You can use the timeline triggers to send content personalized to the audience member watching the video.
- The audience is also able to send instructions to the video. All audience interaction goes to Conducttr and then Conducttr makes an API Call to the server. The server looks up the video details in the database and then plays the correct video (the file "api.php")
- As the author, you will configure a video list, the video size and the video triggers all inside Conducttr. Even if you need someone with more web development experience to set up the website, once that's done you can fine tune and change the storytelling aspects without further coding.
3 The Recipe
This recipe has the following sections:
- Ingredients - what you need to complete this project
- Preparation - how to prepare
- Method - step-by-step implementation guide
3.1 Ingredients
You will need:
I. a web host
II. a Conducttr project
III. YouTube videos
IV. Twilio account for mobile calls & SMS
V. Basic text-ending software to edit the code such as Notepad
Your web host will need:
- MySQ
- Code snippets from Conducttr (You can find all the files here):
- The "index.html" code snippet
- The "video.php" code snippet
- The "api.php" code snippet.
- The OAuth library
3.2 Preparation
To prepare, you'll need to:
- Setup your web host
- Setup your Conducttr project
3.2.1 Setting up the web host
I. Register a domain name (e.g. http://ww.zenfilms.com). In this document will be using MYURL to indicate where you should replace with your domain name
II. Ensure that your server runs PHP release 5 or higher. Our code will not work with PHP 4
III. Create a new MySQL Database on your web server. In most hosts this can be done in the administration panel or via command line. Also the "api.php" file provides a method to create the database that can be called writing this URL in your browser:
Note that only some ISPs allow this. If your ISP doesn't allow it then you'll have to create it manually with their admin tool
Below is an example of creating the database in GoDaddy:
- In the Databases section of the Hosting Control Panel, click the icon corresponding to the database you want to create.
- Click Add.
- Complete the fields. To allow direct access, click Additional Options.
- Verify the settings and click OK
3.2.2 Setting up the Conducttr project
I. Create a Conducttr project
Organize your videos
II. Add a new Video Asset and import links to your videos. This will make it easy to refer to them although we won't publish anything this way. The videos on YouTube can be public or unlisted.
It's not a requirement that you create a storyboard for the interaction but you will find it very helpful. The image below shows a number of screen grabs from the video uploaded onto the Whiteboard.
Each video will be referred to be a unique number, starting at 1 for the first video. Use the Whiteboard to label the videos and map the branching. The benefit of this becomes clear when you start to write and add the Conducttr content and logic.
Create the basic logic
III. Create a new Audience Attribute called "NextVideo" of type Integer
IV. Create a new API entry inside Conducttr called "Website"
V. Create a new Solo Signup widget to collect the audience phone, with the Success URL pointing to the video page ( http:// MYURL /video.php )
3.3 Method
Now you have all the ingredients and you've followed the preparation, you're now ready to configure the project. The steps are:
- Edit and upload the code snippets to the web host
- Implement the logic in your Conducttr project
3.3.1 Edit and upload the code snippets
First you need to edit the code snippets to add your database details and details from your Conducttr project. This will make the code snippets know which database and project you are using.
I. Update the "api.php" code snippet with details from your project. When you open the code snippet, the area that you edit is between two comment lines. The start of the editable area says "Edit the information below" – as shown in the image.
You need to update the following information:
- CONDUCTTR CONSUMER KEY & CONSUMER SECRET – you'll find this in the Authentication section of the API pop-up
- CONDUCTTR PROJECT ID – this is found in the top header bar
- MYSQL HOST, DBNAME , USER and PASSWORD – you can check this information in your web hosting control panel. Below there's an example of this info in GoDaddy.
II. Now you need to create the registration page that holds the sign-up widget.
- Generate the HTML code of your Conducttr Solo Signup Widget and paste this into the Index.html code snippet at the beginning of the file.
- Upload index.html to your web host in the same folder as your "api.php" file.
- If you upload index.html to a different folder you will need to update it with the path of the api.php file so that index.html can find it.
III. Upload the "video.php" code snippet to your web host in the same folder as your "api.php" file.
If you upload it to a different folder you will need to update the file with the path of the api.php file.
IV. Upload the Oauth library files to your server. Extract the "Oauth" folder in the same directory you have uploaded the "api.php" file. Otherwise you will need to update the "api.php" file with the path of the Oauth files.
3.3.2 Implement the logic in your Conducttr project
Once you have upload everything to your web host, you don't need to touch it again – all the remaining configuration can be accomplished inside Conducttr.
In Conducttr, you need to configure the video list, the video size and the video triggers. You'll also need to determine the interaction between the audience and the video creating triggers and actions. The next sections explain how to do the following:
- Create the setup calls to configure the video player
- Create the triggers and actions to determine the interaction
18.104.22.168 Create the setup calls to configure the video player
There are three basic components that define the behavior of the video player:
o VIDEOS: list of video IDs that identify the video in YouTube
o VIDEO_JOURNEY: list of pair of numbers, the first defines the video being played and the second the next video by default (the number refers to the position in the VIDEOS list)
o TELL_CONDUCTTR_IM_HERE: array of video cues. The first number indicates the video (i.e. the position in the VIDEOS list), the second text is the time in minutes:seconds in the playback that an API call to Conducttr should be made and the final text is the API trigger, and the third text is the matchphrase sent to Conducttr.
You are going to create five API Calls that will configure the video player.
You only need to call each method once for each time you make changes to the configuration of the player. This means that these API Calls are only sent by pressing the TEST button in Conducttr's Content Table.
The calls are:
- Initialize: creates the tables in the database
- Set Videos: ordered list of the videos you're going to play
- Set Video_journey: defines with video will be played next by default
- Set triggers: the list of video cues
- Video player size: determines the width and height of the player.
Complete this configuration in two stages:
- Configure the API Calls
- Click TEST from the Content Table to send each API Call
Configuring the API Calls
I. Initialize: This call will create two tables in your database and initialize them. You can do this creating an API call inside Conducttr or pasting the next URL in your browser
URL: http:// MYURL/api.php?action=initialize
II. Set Videos: If you followed the Preparation section then you'll have all your YouTube videos inside your project. Go through the videos and copy the Video ID immediately after the first "/" - as shown below – and paste this into an API Call in the Data section.
Your API Call should look like the image below.
Method: POST
Format: JSON
URL: http:// MYURL/api.php?action=set_videos
DATA:{ "videos" : ["8nG1i7zHeBo","GOTq4N4uz1U","R0EIlG08jKo"] }
III. Set Video Journey: – this tells the code what to do with each video once it reaches the end of its timeline. In the example image below, Video 1 (i.e. 8nG1i7zHeBo) should loop back to itself; Video 2 (i.e. GOTq4N4uz1U) should play Video 3 (i.e. R0EIlG08jKo)
Create a new API Call select Method: POST and Format: JSON
Method: POST
Format: JSON
URL: http:// MYURL/api.php?action=set_video_journey
DATA: {"video_journey" : [ [1,1], [2,3], [3,1] ] }
IV. Set Triggers – this is the array of video cues. The first number indicates the video (i.e. the position in the VIDEOS list), the second text is the time in minutes:seconds in the playback timeline that an API call to Conducttr should be made and the final text is the API trigger matchphrase sent to Conducttr ( check they are the same used before)
Method: POST
Format: JSON
URL: http:// MYURL/api.php?action=set_triggers
DATA:{"tell_conducttr_im_here" : [[1,"0:11","one"], [ 2,"0:02","two"], [3,"0:01","three"]]}
V. SET VIDEO WIDTH AND HEIGHT – set the size of your video player.
Method: POST
Format: JSON
URL: http:// MYURL/api.php?action=set_video_size
DATA:{"video_width" : 720, "video_height" : 405 }
Click TEST from the Content Table to send each API Call
For each API Call, selecting the content in the Content Table and clicking the TEST button.
If the call is OK you should see an alert:
You can also check everything is fine by pasting the following URLs in your browser and checking that the response is the same as in your API Calls
Videos ID: http://MYURL/api.php?action=get_videos
Video Journey: http://MYURL/api.php?action=get_video_journey
Triggers: http://MYURL/api.php?action=get_triggers
Video size: http://MYURL/api.php?action=get_video_size
220.127.116.11 Create the triggers and actions to determine the interaction
Everything on the server is now configured.
All that remains is to create API Triggers that will fire when the videos call them and API Calls that we will be sent to the server when some event triggers them (for example, an audience member sends a text message which fires the API Call).
I. Create API triggers in Conducttr that will fire when the video calls them.
You need to an API trigger for each video cue – like the one shown below. You've told the video when to call this trigger.
II. Create the API Calls from Conducttr to the server to change the video. In the example below, the call will cause video 3 to play (i.e. R0EIlG08jKo)
Method: GET or POST
Format: HTML
URL: http://MYURL /api.php? action=set_NextVideo&audience_phone=|audience_phone|&nextvideo=3

With Parse Push, Chamberlain Informs Consumers that Their "Garage Door Just Opened"
Garage Door Opener Notifications Bring Peace of Mind and Awareness Over What's Happening at Home with More than 20 Million Alerts to Smartphones Every Month
ELMHURST, Ill., March 25, 2015 -- Chamberlain Group, Inc. (www.chamberlain.com) announces its integration with push technology from Facebook®'s Parse to notify consumers of daily garage door activity. Knowing the status of the garage door is highly valuable as the garage is the primary home access point for more than 70 percent of homeowners. Using Parse's mobile app technology, the Chamberlain and LiftMaster MyQ apps alert users when the garage door opens, closes, or has been left open for a preset period of time.
Chamberlain MyQ, the world's most widely used technology for connected garage door control, gives people valuable insights into their family's home and away activity, such as when kids arrive home safely from school, or if the garage door has unintentionally been left open. More than 20 million notifications are sent to consumer smartphones each month using Parse Push, which demonstrates both the power of the technology and the advantages such notifications have in bringing home awareness and peace of mind to consumers.
"Our work with the Parse Push service gives MyQ users peace of mind by connecting them to family activities as they come and go from home," said Cory Sorice, Vice President of Marketing for Chamberlain Connected Products and Ecommerce. "MyQ is built securely and intuitively to support garage and gate access systems that benefit from a link to those coming and going moments-such as turning on lights or changing thermostats when you arrive home, or putting your house into 'away mode' when you leave. MyQ puts home control and peace of mind in consumers hands."
MyQ is at the Center of the Connected Home
Chamberlain has announced partnerships with some of the leading consumer electronics manufacturers and home-improvement retailers, including Apple HomeKit, Nest, SmartThings, Wink and others to be announced. More detail on these connected home partnerships is available online: http://www.chamberlain.com/technology-partners.

Introduction to the Series
The reason why we're writing this series is because we've found that building a protocol for decentralized identity & reputation asks for a few explanations.
Introducing 2WAY.IO
2WAY.IO is developing a purely peer-to-peer base layer protocol for trust (identity & reputation). It is open source and privacy- & security-by-design.

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.
Xin Zhao Build
Need Damage?
My favorite Final build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Hello, my name is Joao, i'm brazilian and today i will show you a build for xin zhao top laner
My main language is not english so if i screw up sometimes let me know :)
I'm no professional player, I'm just Gold III, top laner main and this is my first guide so don't expect like OMFG this is the ****ing best guide i ever seen, because it won't be xD
Pros / Cons
Brute Force
+Good Gap Closer
+High early damage
+Natural Tankiness
+Nice Ultimate Crescent Sweep for a team fight
+Great voice :D
+Nice lane sustain With Battle Cry
Archaic Knowledge
- Crescent Sweep Can screw Up team fights if not used correctly
-Doesn't do so much in team fights if you can't snowball
-No natural Scape
-Iten dependant
-If u get behind, u are completely screwd :C
Greater Mark of Attack Damage
Greater Seal of Armor
Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist
Greater Quintessence of Attack Damage
Greater Seal of Armor Just the usual, get these for defend yourself from the enemy top laner
Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist Get it to have extra magic resist in the early game, I get scaling magic resist for two reaseons, first, usualy Ap champions doesn't have too much damage in the early game from their skills, and second, The enemy top laner is almost every time AD
Greater Quintessence of Attack Damage Just like the marks, have some ad in the early for farming and bulyng the enemy
Summoner's Spells
Flash and Ignite Those summoner's spells are the bests, but you can also use Ghost and Teleport
I don't really like Ghost for xin zhao, mostely Singed players and Nasus players are getting it, don't fell that is really good on xin zhao, and u can get Teleport, First of all if you know how to use it and Second if you fell like if your team can't hold the lanes by themselves, or that there is a Shen in the enemy team and you want to follow him up with teleport when he pops his ulti
Ability Explanation
Challenge Three Talon Strike Battle Cry Audacious Charge Crescent Sweep
Challenge Is his passive and will reduce de armor of the opponent and can be procked by Auto Attacks and Audacious Charge
Three Talon Strike is his Q and basicaly gives bonus damage for the next 3 hits and the third hit will knock up the enemy, and each atack with his Q will reduce the cooldown of his other abilities for 1 second.
Battle Cry is his W and has both passive and active skills, the passive is that xin zhao heals himself every third basic attack, his active is that you raise up your atack speed for a lot, procs really well with his Q, just use the W and the Q and you can take down a tower really fast :)
Audacious Charge is his E, and it's simply a gap closer that slows the enemy and applys Challenge
Crescent Sweep is his ultimate and gives thamage and knock back every enemy around you but doesn't knock back an enemy wich has Challenge applyed on him, this ulti is great for just isolate the enemy from his allieds, just use Audacious Charge in the adcarry for example, and isolate him to keep you free hiting him.
Ability Sequence OrderCrescent Sweep> Audacious Charge> Three Talon Strike> Battle Cry
Why max E first? Well, because it's cooldown get's really low and the damage of it in the early game it's really high, i mean, it allows you too jump in the enemy champion and just win trades with him easily.
Ok, let's go to the itens, great
Let's see, My iten build brings a combination of damage, atack speed and tankiness
My favorite build is Blade of the Ruined King+ Trinity Force+ Mercury's Treads+ Randuin's Omen+ Spirit Visage+ Frozen Mallet
I always do Trinity Force and Blade of the Ruined King cause it brings atack speed and damage, those too itens procs Really Well with xin zhao's kit.
Now, Let's go to situacionals, Get Youmuu's Ghostblade If you get like a lot of kills in the early/mid game and think you can assassin the enemy's team adcarry really fast.
Get Ravenous Hydra for split push, you can add it to your core or substitute it for Blade of the Ruined King
Get Zephyr if you need tenacity and didn't go for Mercury Treads, you need to be really Fed for it
Get Thornmail if you need a LOT of armor, Warmog's Armor for a chunk of heal(be careful with Blade of the Ruined King and Liandry's Torment before building Warmog's Armor, Randuin's Omen It's for slowing enemys down, you can use it when you use Audacious Charge in the middle of the team fight and slow everyone down, Spirit Visage for magic resist and Frozen Mallet for a lot's of slow, i like to get it if i'm facing Vayne and she scape so easily for just using her Tumble
Team Fights
In team fights with Xin Zhao U just have to get one of the enemy carry and try to take him off the fight with the heal of your teammates, you will be the front line so remember to keep in front, the tanker has got to tank :D. Always remember to activate Blade of the Ruined King for better chases if the enemy carry scape and don't start the team fight if your team is too far from you!
Well, xin zhao it's a lot of fun too play, enjoy your laning bully :D, thanks for seeing this build, if you want to criticize or give me a thumbs up just do it, i will help a lot, sorry for my bad english, i'm just 15 years old and haven't went to a english curse yet :X, thanks guys, Bye. And remember, the tanker has got to tank :D

About: Southampton General Hospital Southampton General Hospital Southampton SO16 6YD
Posted via NHS Choices
I take my mother to the oncology clinic every three months to have her lymphoma monitored. I must say that the treatment she has received there over the years has been wonderful. The kindness and skill of the staff is amazing and we never feel rushed when we see the doctor. I don't know how people can be so kind and professional when I guess they must be quite pressurised for time. It is a comfort to know that this department is one of the foremost places to have lymphoma treated. Thank you all so much.

Head of Primary's Greeting
Welcome to Green Oasis School in Shenzhen.
We provide a happy, caring environment in which your children can learn and enjoy success. We are fortunate to have children from many different parts of the world and it is this cultural diversity that makes us unique within Shenzhen. The mix of Chinese and international students enriches our learning experiences as well as our friendships and play.
We are pleased to offer a broad curriculum based on the National Curriculum for England that allows your child to develop the skills needed to become lifelong learners. Using research based learning, he or she will learn 'how to learn' and our Academic Tracking system will help you, as parents, to identify your child's strengths and areas for improvement. In mathematics, we emphasise the need to be able to use number skills mentally as this is an important life skill. In English we are fortunate to have the facilities of English as a Additional Language (EAL) to enable those whose first language is not English to access the curriculum more effectively.
As Primary teachers, our focus is to enable your children to become not only independent learners but also valuable members of the community. We actively encourage the children to become responsible for themselves, those around them as well as the environment in which we live. From the youngest to the eldest, children are encouraged and reminded to take care of their belongings at all times.
Green Oasis is a warm and welcoming school and we look forward to the excitement of the end of year activities and the start of the new academic year.

"Landscape photography is the supreme test of the photographer – and often the supreme disappointment. "
? Ansel Adams
Early, early, oh so early. As always, mingling is the first thing on our agenda. Once everyone was adequately ready, we set off to Mt Dandenong. One group smuggled in some hot jam donuts, but not for everyone to share. A stern talking to is in order. BBQ was the first thing we partook in when we arrived – you know that old saying, got to have your sustenance.
We drove up to the mountain, walked down the arduous trek bustling with green as far as the eye could see. The clean air brought out some innovative modelling in our members, which lead us to find the lake and a little shed.
And if that wasn't fun enough, we began wondering around. Had much fun with walkie talkies (technology, right?), to determine which MPC member could sing the best (I think we might need to hold a MPC singing competition soon). We returned to Clayton but in a drastic change of events, swapped the traditional post-daytrip dinner from Ping's dumplings (we still love you Ping!) to the classic Vietnamese Pho.

Until next time, happy snapping
