Troll Poling Your Way To Victory
Hello community my name is Bakin and I am a Gold Elo Fizz/Riven Main who has probably 1k + Fizz games over the last couple of seasons because I have no life and this is my guide to trolling the rift with the adorable demon fish fizz and his sidekick URF the ADC eater.
I play fizz mid lane as an AP burst assassin and I also play top/jungle bruiser fizz which I will probably make a guide for later if I stop being lazy.
Fizz is basically the coolest champion in the game because he has URF as his wingman and is adorable while also being a professional pole vaulter that dunks noobs and picks up the ladies.Just Fizz on his daily grind.
I hope you enjoy my guide and learn alot from it so you too can make people rage with your troll pole of destruction and get fizz nerfed again.
This video serves as a fairly accurate Fizz overview. CAUTION: Don't watch this with headphones on...
Fizz Lore
''Fizz makes even the saltiest scrubs of Bilgewater look like drunken teletubbies in a fight. Good thing he's on our side.''
-- Miss Fortune, the Bounty Hunter
Centuries ago, an ancient basement-dwelling race built a hidden city beneath a mountain in the sea. Though these creatures had their haters, the city was an impenetrable fortress, and, in the safety it provided, they grew complacent. Fizz, however, harbored a curious spirit that could not be satisfied living so cushioned a life. Unable to resist the allure of danger, Fizz had a habit of sneaking out of the city to look for ladies. In his many adventures he grew to be a powerful fighter with a keen resourcefulness that let him dunk noobs with clever ease. One day, Fizz returned to find the city abandoned: his people had dipset, leaving Fizz without a clue to explain their disappearance. With nothing left in the city to keep him, Fizz salvaged an enchanted trident from Poseidon and set out alone.
For years, Fizz wandered the ocean, using the skills he'd learned during his adventures as a young G to survive. Finally, Fizz discovered the port of Bilgewater. He was fascinated with the existence of ladies above the water and could not resist exploring the island. In his sexual curiosity, Fizz inadverently meddled in the affairs of the humans who lived there and his presence did not go unnoticed. His mischief angered many sushi eaters who eventually sought to capture or kill him. Fizz found himself cornered, and he prepared to return to the sea despite the fondness he'd come to hold for Bilgewater. As he stood at the docks, a massive URF attacked the port. Fizz defeated the beast, using his resourcefulness and knowledge of the creatures' weaknesses to his advantage. Having earned the gratitude and respect of the humans, Fizz decided to stay in Bilgewater. He joined the League of Legends to further serve his new home.
Fizz is an AP melee burst assassin that has huge burst damage and mobility at the cost of being squishy and having a weak early lane phase.
At level 6 fizz can dunk practically any squishy in the game if you land URF on them and hit them with a WQE combo. The more time you can smack your opponent with your W empowered Trident the more damage you will get off.
Fizz also gets a large amount of his burst from his E which is also his main escape tool meaning that when he goes in for a 100-0 onto a scrub he goes deep into melee range of that champion making Fizz an all-in champion with balls of steel.
The main way to build fizz is with tons of AP items for maximum burst potential and CDR so he can juke sushi eaters harder and have his skill rotation on a shorter cool-down for escaping and outplays.
Fizz's play style completely revolves around his troll pole so learning to use it to its maximum potential will make you a flashy fish master and allow you to ride out of the depths of low elo on URF's majestic back.
Pros/Cons to Playing Fizz
Crazy Burst
Low Cd Untargetability (Troll Pole)
Can Pole Vault onto scrubs and over most walls
Good late game mobility
Good scaling makes fizz good at all stages of the game.
Very good roaming potential.
Fizz can pole vault over tower shots and ultimates making him one of the best tower divers in the game, he truly gives zero ****s about the mechanics of the game.
Uses URF to dunk noobs in a jaws esque style
Low Elos can't deal with the troll pole making Fizz the ultimate scrub stomper.
Is a chick magnet.
Amazing juke potential which makes him good for compilation vids showing off your skills and outplays.
Is a Fish
Very Squishy making fizz an easy target for sushi eaters.
Uses his main escape as a burst tool meaning when fizz goes in he goes HAM.
Has many hard match-ups as a melee champion that is squishy and often loses lane until level 6 meaning early game you will probably take a lot of damage trying to eat creeps.
Can be hard to get to priority targets late game with all of the cc and damage.
Can be hard to team fight well if you waste your URF.
Everyone hates you for being a swag fish and will often try to focus you down.
High Skill Cap.
When behind it can be hard to catch back up essentially making you a sitting duck on a pole.
Is a fish.
Team Work
As a Fizz player your job is to assassinate the carries such as their ADC or mid laner.
This means that unless you land a good URF onto a carry you should not be initiating fights but rather waiting for a prime opportunity to pole vault onto low hp targets and enemy carries.
Your ult can also be used defensively as it is a slow and a knock-up and its cool-down late game isn't that long so don't be afraid to throw it at an enemy chasing your sorry excuse for a teammate to save his ***.
Fizz can also be a decent split pusher with his W + Sheen damage on towers and inhibitors, high dive potential, and really good jukibility.
Try to avoid ulting tanks and supports as it wastes it's utility and ability to set up for an easy dunk with it's 20% fizz damage increase.
Fizz is a good roamer and a strong chaser and you should be prowling the map looking for farming carries or squishy warding supports while playing him but make sure you don't get caught by sushi eaters by venturing too far into un-warded territory.
Unique Skills
Fizz can pole vault over most walls in the game and I've included a map right here to show you which walls you can and cant jump so you don't make a fool out of yourself.
The White lines are easy fizz jumps, the red lines are jumps that are not possible, and the yellow lines are jumps that are possible but you might make a fool out of yourself if you attempt them in a real game.
Fizz also has two forms of troll pole where double casting it gives you more mobility and the same damage but less AoE and no slow. The fast e is very good for escaping and chasing people and if you're confident in landing the smaller range of impact can be used to fast assassinate noobs. I took this picture from Fatefalls fizz guide who is a beastly challenger fizz main that I suggest watching on his stream sometime.Another trick you can do with fizz E is hop over walls from very far away because fast casting fizz E actually has two parts to it both parts have the ability to jump a wall. This is a bit more advanced and you might mess it up at first but after mastering it you will never get caught by the sushi eaters again. This video shows the mechanic and how it can also be used to scout by jumping over the wall and back again.
This also allows for some next level swag dragon steals while playing fizz jungle by jumping into the dragon pick and smiting then retreating back out.
Farming (Lane Phase)
Farming with fizz can be hard at first and is something that even very good players don't like about playing fizz. The early levels can be very rough as you have to walk into melee range to farm and especially against poke heavy mid laners like fricken Ezreal you can take so much damage that you either get pushed out of lane early or just straight up die trying to eat the cs. Also when people see you pick fizz they might opt to counter-pick you by picking a melee bruiser such as riverino or mantheon to make your day a living hell. This vulnerable early game if why we always start with the vodka flask for that early sustain. Another thing I like about the flask is that you can stay healthy hp and mana-wise for fizz's dangerous level 3 power spike.
Try not to use your E before this point because it costs a ton of mana at early levels and is not a practical farming tool yet.
Fizzes W has very small mana costs especially after early game so don't be afraid to use it for an easier time csing especially if you're not used to csing with AP champions yet.
First Back I always like to get double doran's rings if you can afford it because it patches up fizz's mana issues and actually allows you to use fizz's e to farm and trade. You also get alot of AP with it which is perfect for your level 6 power spike where you usually go for your first dunk with urf. After you get your sheen and your double doran's rings you shouldn't have nearly as bad mana issues as early game and can feel free to farm with your troll pole which can clear entire waves easily at high ranks.
because it synergizes with fizz's melee assassin kit while giving him the extra mana to dunk noobs. Activating w will proc sheen then allowing you to shove fizz's spear tipped with sheen proc right up the enemies rear with a fizz q.
After building sheen, finishing the entire lich bane while still core, is not mandatory to do right away because of the lich bane nerfs and I often go from sheen straight into
For the added burst, damage, and move-speed that helps you roam the map and snowball.
In my core items I suggested getting
on fizz and the reason I suggest doing this is for extra CDR that allows fizz to pole vault all over the rift late game with 40% cdr from lucidity boots + morrello mixed with the fact that late game with all AP items you should have more than enough burst potential to 1 shot any squishy scrub without the crazy AP that deathcap gives. Basically it comes down to my preference of utility over raw damage although certain games like ones where I need to make a dent in tankier champions I go deathcap over morrello. It's really up to you, fizz, and URF to decide.
Can also be replaced with
If you need more MR as it works very well with fizz because he needs to get in melee range for his burst.
can be used to burst down tanks or to chase people better and I suggest using this item with a tanky bruiser fizz build because you need to attacking them for a longer time to make full use of this item. It can be really effective with Abyssal, frozen heart, sunfire and other tanky items although this guide is for 1 shotting nubs mid lane so that's a build for another guide that I will probably make eventually.
is an underrated item that I sometimes build on fizz that gives him the ability to chase people better with it's cool and unique active while also giving cdr, ability power, and movespeed, which makes it the ultimate dunking tool. This item is incredibly underused and I actually saw it built on a diamond fizz who's name I can't remember while spectating a game awhile back. I suggest giving it a shot because it's pretty kool.
When Playing Fizz there is never a reason to go anything other than 21 offensive masteries as Fizz is an all in Burst Champion that goes hard or goes home.
The reason I take Brute Force and Martial Mastery is to hit harder With Fizzes W in trades which really helps Early game and also makes csing a bit easier.
This is actually the Mastery Page that SSW's Pawn took against SSB in Game 3 of the world's Grand Finals and after trying out the AD masteries on Fizz, I realized how op it is.
I also go 9 Defense because Fizz gets harassed and bullied alot in most lane match-ups because fizz has a lot of haters which makes the extra Defense and HP very useful.
Fizz also needs to be in melee range for him to do his job so having 9 defense gives him that Extra survivability to make the yolo plays.
Having Block is pretty much essential in my opinion on any melee mid laner as many ranged auto attacking champions will be bullying you with autos otherwise.
It is not horrible to go 21-0-9 however I never do it and personally don't recommend it although the movement speed, mana and biscuits for lane can be pretty good but you might have trouble surviving and dunking your lane opponent without that bit of extra defense.
Fizz is one of my favorite champions to play and I have more games on him than I can count. I hope you enjoyed my guide on how to awe the ladies and dunk the noobs playing fizz the tidal trickster and please give my guide a vote if you enjoyed it. Add me in game if you want to do a normals sometime and please leave comments with your feedback, suggestions, and to tell me how much of a scrub I am.

Dole Food Company has created a new Office of Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability that will drive the company's global environmental initiatives at company-owned farms. The new group replaces Dole's existing office of Corporate Social Responsibility.
While the new group will continue to support a range of programs aimed at its employees and local communities, it will now also focus on three priority initiatives including carbon footprint reduction, soil conservation and water management.
Some of the group's key initiatives under these priorities include conducting a comprehensive calculation of product carbon footprints from production through the supply chain and implementing programs to improve refrigeration systems, use controlled-released fertilizers and educate truck drivers on efficient driving techniques.
Dole has already certified the carbon footprint of bananas produced in Costa Rica and distributed in Germany. Dole Asia is implementing a similar process for the bananas produced in the Philippines.
The food company also has reforestation initiatives in its production countries to help offset greenhouse gas emissions. As an example, in Costa Rica Dole owns and protects over 2,400 hectares of natural and commercial forest, reforested areas and buffer zones and in the Philippines over 1,000,000 trees have been planted through reforestation efforts.
Dole is also participating in a Norwegian initiative aimed at measuring the environmental impact of Dole's bananas distributed in Norway.
The company also is practicing conservation management efforts to protect soil and to conserve water at packing plants and farms, and is launching its New Millennium Packing Plant, which consumes approximately 80 percent less water compared to conventional packing plants. Dole joined the Water Footprint Network last year.
Recycling programs are also part of Dole's new priority initiatives. As an example, on an annual basis Dole recycles approximately 300 tons of plastic in Ecuador, 1,500 tons in Costa Rica and 1,100 tons in Honduras. In the Philippines, plastic strapping is recycled and weaved into various handicrafts that support local small business cooperatives.

*Gary Coleman's estranged parents abandoned their effort to bury him in his native Illinois Friday after a Utah attorney revealed the actor named an executor in a 1999 will.
"Of course it's disappointing. We'd be inhuman if it wasn't, but we're not up for a fight," Coleman's mother, Sue Coleman, said in an interview with The Associated Press. "We just want him finally put away to rest."
Gary Coleman died May 28 in Utah from a brain hemorrhage at age 42.
Salt Lake City Attorney Kent Alderman said he has a will Coleman wrote that he will take to a Utah County court sometime next week. The will was written before Coleman moved to Utah and met his future wife during filming for the 2006 comedy "Church Ball." Alderman wouldn't reveal details of the will, including the name of the executor, but said Coleman will not be buried this weekend.
"We will submit that for probate next week and find out if this is the last will. We believe it is. Nobody's come up with a more recent one," Alderman said.

The femtocell option
0 comments post a comment
It will be interesting to see if the femtocell idea has a half life of more than a femtosecond.
One of the more perplexing challenges for "anytime/anywhere" wireless access is providing seamless service as someone moves from outside, where cell phone services is just fine, to inside, where it is not.
At least it is not if "inside" means inside your home.
A dual-mode phone was once the obvious answer with a cell phone radio assumed. Until very recently, Wi-Fi seemed to be the other radio in the tandem. It is, after all, already in the work environment and in public places, where it is becoming ubiquitous.
But what about the option of having a cell site right inside your home? A few months ago, PicoChip ran the "femtocell" option up the flagpole. Guess what? Some of the cell phone carriers salutedmore or less.
The value proposition is thatassuming the femtocell could be sold retail for about $100the consumer would be willing to pick up the cost of what is normally called infrastructure.
Carriers wouldn't have to change their billing or any other process. The Wi-Fi/VoIP competition would be dealt a serious blow. And the consumer who doesn't have a Wi-Fi access point in their home (probably the majority for quite some time) might also be happy.
Cell phone manufacturers would be pleased because they wouldn't have to build another radio into their phones. Or, because if they are going to have a multi-mode phone they'd like to keep the number low and opt for a mobile TV or maybe a WiMAX radio,
The sticky point, of course, is the retail price of the femtocell. PicoChip claims it can get the price down to about $100 with its interesting silicon technology that employs true MIMD parallel process with hundreds of DSP cores.
Not everybody agrees. But it will be interesting to see if the femtocell idea has a half life of more than a femtosecond.

STICK TO THE PLAN: You need to be diligent about following it. Resist
the urge to pile miles on to the plan, even if you're feeling great. Doing too
much before your body is ready puts you at risk for getting hurt, and often
you don't know that you're overdoing it until it's too late. After you make it to
the starting line, then you can add on mileage and intensity
SCHEDULE YOUR WORKOUTS: You won't ever find time for your runs
unless you make some time for them in your schedule. Plug your workouts into
your phone, computer, daily appointment planner, on the front of your refrigerator,
or treat them as unbreakable appointments that you can't miss. Tell family and
friends about your 5-K goal so that they can help keep you accountable during
BUY THE RIGHT SHOES: Worn-out or ill-fitting shoes can lead to injury.
If you're not sure whether your running shoes are in shape for 5-K training, go to
a specialty running store, like Road Runner's in Tualatin, to get help finding the pair that offers the support and fit your feet need.

I am grateful to those bloggers out there who write comprehensive posts about the specific issues that face libraries today–the ebook conundrum; new uses of emerging technologies in libraries; the decline (or rise?) of reference and library instruction; library programming–the list goes on and on as new issues face libraries of all kinds every day.
I am grateful because while I enjoying reading about those things; I don't enjoy writing about them. I find myself drawn to the vague, cultural issues that define the world of libraries to some extent. I've written about age, personality, perception, hierarchies, professionalism, and other topics that don't directly advance the job of librarians but rather serve to foster a better understanding of the environment in which we work, at least I hope that's what I do, sometimes, on a good day.
I've learned a lot about the culture of libraries in the past few weeks–some of it has surprised me; some of it has not. What has surprised me is a specific conversation that I had with an academic librarian who indicated that when it comes down to a division of applicants into the "will interview" pile and the "no thanks" pile, pedigree matters. By that I mean that it was suggested that the "where" of where someone obtained their library science degree is a factor in the selection process.
Maybe that should not have surprised me. But it did. In my mind, there are so many other factors that are much more important. And in all fairness, this person wasn't suggesting that it is the most important factor, but rather that it can be a factor when all else is relatively equal.
Since I am a recent graduate and earned my degree through an online program, a statement like that gives me pause to think. The origin of my credentials is not particularly impressive. Does this translate, on paper, as I am not particularly impressive? I don't know. And this post is not meant to focus on an individual's concerns (me) but rather a perception in the library community, which may be restricted to academic libraries. And maybe for good reason, for all I know.
I am not someone who is impressed by credentials. I am impressed by people. I realize that when someone is looking at resumes they have to make subjective judgments based upon objective criteria that may or may not speak to someone's real strengths and abilities. The same can be said for experience.
Which brings me to my next cultural awakening–experience matters. I know this one should not surprise me. But this awareness also gives me pause to think for this reason using myself as an example–
My chronological age does not match my professional age. As a 50-year-old human being, I believe I have enough life experience to move into a leadership position. As a professional "toddler" (less than 2 years post-MLS experience and no real managerial experience), I don't have the profile many employers are looking for when they're reviewing resumes. I believe that task-related skills can be learned on the job much easier than life skills, which include good communication, dealing with people, the ability to see the bigger picture, and the willingness to bring a vision and direction to an organization and to be held accountable for results.
Much has been written about the need for leaders in the library world. And I have to wonder if there is a whole subset of librarians, who came to this profession later in life, who have not come "up through the ranks" but have jumped in late in the game with ideas, and vision, and most importantly, a natural ability to lead, that is being overlooked.
I have a great job with a great organization under the direction of a visionary leader. But I always have my eye out for new opportunities. And I'm beginning to wonder if my professional age will ever catch up to my professional goals before my chronological age burns out. And I wonder who else out there feels the same way?
Is this unique to the culture of libraries? I don't know. Probably not. But if we're going to advance as a profession, I think we should look beyond the standard definition for what makes someone eligible or qualified. People are living longer. People are making transitions later in life. Denying an opportunity to someone who has made the effort to obtain the credentials but hasn't had the time to prove themselves in the traditional way feels like a missed opportunity. The same holds true for not giving a new, young librarian a chance. How do you accumulate experience if no one gives you the chance to gain it?
If this post doesn't make sense to anyone but me, then I know I am alone in my frustration. And if that's the case, then perhaps I should switch gears and write about the latest library gripe, which is easier to address. But, like I said, I'm drawn to the obscure. What can I say? I've lived long enough to understand the importance of the peripheral.
Not that age matters.

I have an old, sentimental newspaper-article-cut claiming "pessimistic hi-tech employees are more productive than their optimistic peers" hanging on my office wall.
In this context, last summer I wrote, coined and trademarked the Pessimistic Developer Paradigm.
Early this week I have interviewed a very interesting dude* who saw this old article hanging on my office and introduced this amazing poem by Robert Graves which I must share in this pessimistic context…
In Broken Images (by Robert Graves)
He is quick, thinking in clear images;
I am slow, thinking in broken images.
He becomes dull, trusting to his clear images;
I become sharp, mistrusting my broken images.
Trusting his images, he assumes their relevance;
Mistrusting my images, I question their relevance.
Assuming their relevance, he assumes the fact;
Questioning their relevance, I question their fact.
When the fact fails him, he questions his senses;
when the fact fails me, I approve my senses.
He continues quick and dull in his clear images;
I continue slow and sharp in my broken images.
He in a new confusion of his understanding;
I in a new understanding of my confusion.
* Thanks Tomer and Good Luck!

As I posted when I just started this blog – Almost 2 month ago I have decided to leave a promising (& cozy) career @ Mercury to join a challenging new-born start-up… called Delver.
This was an offer I couldn't refused…
Delver is a venture-backed internet startup developing cutting-edge web application in the domain of Internet Search and Meta Social Networks.
It is more challenging, inspiring, interesting and exciting than I expected, imagined or I can put into words so you will have to join to understand… We are looking for top-notch algorithm researchers, .Net coders, mySQL DBAs, "Hackers", QA experts and out-of-the-box thinkers… to join our unique development team (e.g. Pitz, Boo and Gabel)
Stay tuned (…)

"The major problems of our work are not so much technological as sociological in nature." (Peopleware, 1987)
I think that human capital is the silver bullet* for successful software projects – productivity, personalities, teamwork and group dynamics will make or break a project.
Picking the right people is maybe the most important managerial task so on your next interviews please remember** that knowledge can be easily acquired but personality is there to stay.
Don't spend 90% of your interview time on knowledge when personality (and potential) is the real key for successful recruitment.
* Although "Peopleware" have a full chapter on how there is no silver bullet… but I partially agree since I never said it will be easy to get to the human capital silver bullet…
** Also remember: Somewhere today a project is failing… and I can personally guarantee that people were somehow involved in its failure!

The Spanish government has yet to decide on sending reinforcements to Afghanistan despite its foreign minister's earlier remarks that Spain will send a small number of troops.MADRID – Spain said Friday it has not yet decided whether to boost its military contingent in Afghanistan ahead of elections due there in August, as sought by Washington.
Foreign Minister Miguel Angel Moratinos said Madrid is about to provide a "small number" of additional troops to boost its 778-member force there, part of the 62,000-strong NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) from 42 countries.
He would not give an exact figure, but Deputy Prime Minister Maria Teresa Fernandez de la Vega said 12 additional troops would be sent to help with training an Afghan army battalion.
She said the government is also considering a reinforcement of its contingent to improve security for the 20 August presidential and provincial elections, but "Spain has taken no decision for the moment".
The newspaper El Pais said the Spanish contingent would be strengthened to more than 1,000 personnel.
The foreign minister's statements came as President Barack Obama arrived in France to meet European leaders and drum up support for his new Afghan war strategy at the NATO alliance's 60th anniversary summit.
Moratinos said the additional troops will be in charge of training an Afghan army battalion.
Spain is also looking into the possibility of contributing to the European police force in Afghanistan.
Washington has decided to send 21,000 extra US troops to Afghanistan and is considering deploying 10,000 more, while asking the allies to contribute more of their own soldiers and civilian support staff.
Moratinos had said in February that sending more troops to Afghanistan "is not a solution" to resolving the country's problems.
But Spain last month annoyed both NATO and the United States by announcing the withdrawal of its 630 troops from the NATO-led force in Kosovo. Madrid has refused to recognise Kosovo's unilateral proclamation of independence from Serbia last year.

The Cherry Engineering building at Lamar University was evacuated Thursday morning as a precaution after two students passed out.
Lamar University Spokesperson Brian Sattler said around 10:30 a.m. a student fell and hit his or her head, passing out. A few minutes later, a second student passed out. The university has not released the name or gender of the students.
As a precaution, a faculty member pulled the alarm and had the building evacuated.
An Emergency Medical Services team from Beaumont Fire-Rescue came in and monitored for fumes, but found none. All clear was given about a half hour later.
Sattler surmised that the second student saw blood and passed out.
The first student was taken to hospital to get checked out.

This super-fun alternative to the usual run of the mill entertainment will really leave a lasting impression with your guests – especially as they get to take home their very own unique gift from the both of you- what other entertainment option gives you that? Each caricature should take only 3 -5 minutes and will be in black and white and range from A4 – A3 in size – you can even have a message pre-printed on the sheets – 'Mr and Mrs Smith would like to thank you for helping to make our day so special' for instance. The entertainment you choose will take up a big part of your evening celebrations, and you want to ensure you get the most 'bang for your buck'.
If you hire a DJ to perform a disco then they should be able to create a playlist that has something for everyone and will keep everyone dancing throughout the night. Chances are that a number of your guests will share your musical tastes so that in itself means that it will not just be you two up on the dance floor. Seeing a number of people dancing to music that they do not know can often encourage many others to stay dancing themselves, just because they are having a good time!
When making a playlist it is important to consider the age range of your guests and what you know or suspect are their musical tastes.

An Effective Geocache Collection in Mobile Networks Using Boomerang Protocol
In mobile networks, sensing the geo information and retaining them around the location of interest is a challenging task. In particular, the geo information can only be obtained if the geo-cache holder is present in the anchor location. In order to keep the geo cache around the anchor location boomerang protocol is implemented. The protocol allows the current geo cache holder to keep the information with it until it moves out of anchor location. Using this protocol, the holder can handoff the geo cache to other candidates preferably those traveling toward the anchor location. For this purpose, each node maintains a trajectory segmentation stack.

Drug Store News on Sunday caught up with Brian McNamara, region head of Europe and the Americas of the recently christened GSK Consumer Healthcare, representing the joint venture between GlaxoSmithKline and Novartis to talk about what a consolidating OTC market means for the industry, and how GSK will be coming to market.
Following the completion of a joint venture between GlaxoSmithKline and Novartis' consumer health units, Brian McNamara, currently division head, Novartis OTC, will transition to GSK as Head of Americas and Europe for the consumer health businesses.
More Americans are more often seeking their ounce of prevention. According to Bain & Co.'s recent Healthy Living Survey, 75% of consumers are in pursuit of a healthier lifestyle. Take that predominant mindset, coupled with the outcomes-driven preventive focus associated with the Affordable Care Act, and you have a formula for OTC success at retail pharmacy.
Novartis Consumer Health will be relaunching Theraflu for the 2014-2015 cough-cold season, Brian McNamara, Novartis division head OTC, told analysts.
Ermis Labs, manufacturer of high-performing skin care items, earlier this month announced Hamacher Resource Group will serve as the company's marketing and strategic agency of record for the retail class of trade.
Progress at re-opening its manufacturing facility in Lincoln, Neb., has been slow-going, Novartis reported Thursday, but the company has contracted third-party manufacturers to resume production of Excedrin, Lamisil and Triaminic.

UFO reports
In operation since 1974, the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC) has been collecting and cataloguing UFO reports for over 40 years. Their database holds over 100,000 reports by now and is searchable here. It contains reports from all over the world, but the main focus of NUFORC is the United States: close to 3,000 reports were made in the US in the last 6 months alone.
We take a look at the most recent reports from the NUFORC database here, going over these most recent reports. See the slideshow below for a deep dive into the what, where and when of the latest UFO reports. Or explore a table of all of the latest reports here.
Timeline of UFO reports per state
Most reports in the US are made in two states at opposite sides of the country: California and Florida together account for 20% of all reports.
Latest UFO reports -- Use the filter to explore other locations
Texas in particular has seen a relatively low number of UFO reports recently, compared to its population size. It ranks 10th on the bar below, with 74 reports in the last 6 months. Most of these reports were from the state's major cities or their immediate surroundings: Houston, Dallas and Austin.
Number of reports by US state
About a quarter of the reports mention a "light" but there's is variety of different shapes being reported as well -- including circles, triangles and fireballs as well as teardrops and eggs. All shapes seem to be pretty evenly distributed throughout the country, but for some reason New York has the highest percentage of rectangles reported and Colorado (specifically Denver) the highest percentage of chevrons.

Anoka, MN (PressExposure) October 15, 2009 -- Fly Away Simulation is one of the largest flight simulator sites and it has recently launched Fly Away Español site to cater to the increasing Spanish visitors. Fly Away Simulation offers all the latest news and information for the flight sim community. The original English website was launched 8 years ago. Users will be able to download all the latest free flight sim downloads and add-ons easily through this site.
Not only English users can benefit from this flight simulator, with the launching of Spanish website, Spanish users will be able to find free flight simulator (simulador de vuelo gratis) information in Spanish. This website introduces the users to a number of flight simulator (simulador de vuelo) tools.

All types of flight simulator news is updated on daily basis and users will also be able to subscribe to the RSS feed from this website.
There are not many flight simulator (simulador de vuelo) sites in Spanish. Fly Away Español comes to bridge this gap and to offer first hand information about free flight sim downloads. All the downloads come with detailed information and preview image. The detailed descriptions will also include compatibility information for each download.
Spanish version of Fly Away Simulation, like its parent website in English, will be updated on daily basis with all the latest industry news.

Unions took a stance against such a measure, arguing salaries could weigh from the current 8 percent to 10-12 percent of the GDP next year if the economy shrinks.
The representatives of IMF also required that the cut of wage fund is proportional to the economic contraction, in case Romania's economy reduces.
Both the IMF and the European Commission (EC) estimate Romania's economy will decrease by 4 percent this year and inch somewhere around 0 and 1 percent in 2010.
People close to the negotiations also said the cut of salary fund could be carried out by slashing some bonuses of the employees with large wages and by firing a part of the staff.
Romania will get about 13 billion euros from IMF and 7 billion euros from the European Commission, the World Bank and other European lenders to restart the engines behind the economy and cover holes until the end of 2010.
The interest paid by Romania will be 3.5 percent per year, considering the current market conditions. Thus, the two-year credit will be paid back by 2015 the latest, according to the agreement inked last week.

Girls of all ages, celebrating the feminine heart by sharing real life together, fully embracing God's love and truth.
Women are usually too busy taking care of everyone else and not themselves. The "tug-of-war" between responsibilities, family and relationships pulls in all directions. So many women work full-time, both in and out of the home, creating a need for renewal. If any of this describes you, we think it's time for change!
Opportunities of camaraderie and friendship are in store for you during times of sharing meals, practical teaching, social activities around town and worshiping God together through special seasonal events and regular Life Groups just for girls like you. The teaching topics and venues may vary from gathering to gathering, but the outcome is always the same: you go home ready to tackle your life once again. Our goal is to provide a safe place for women to meet, share, and live our faith together.

text: I apologize if this topic was listed elsewhere, but I did search and really couldn't find the answer. I smoked burgers and dogs on the weekend of the 4th,and during cleanup I noticed that the smoker probe wire on my ET-73 was pinched. So the following day, I did the boiling water test on both probes as well as chefmate wireless with a pinched wire as well. The test had the following results: Food - 211 degrees Smoker - 230 degrees Chefmate - 210 degrees I understand the thermometers being +/- 1 or 2 degress, but for a +18 degress is that a fault of the wire or the unit? Thanks for the help

Passed by Lloyd's Diner on Fountain Street in Framingham and the place seemed intriguing. A quick search on the 'net only revealed that they had homemade ice cream and saturday classic car get togethers. Seems like a great combo to me, but was wondering how the rest of their food was?

Marika Hackman has her own brand of creativity. After un-enjoyably learning instruments via traditional methods, she chose to find her own way to play; making sounds that weren't meant to happen and making them fit with her particular array of doleful lyrics. The result is complete sincerity, a sentiment of utmost important to Marika and one that can be found on her debut album, We Slept At Last.
I've read that you choose to teach yourself to play guitar and other instruments you play, and haven't taken singing lessons. Why is that important to you?
I was already being taught three other instruments and I just didn't want to be taught anymore. I had always wanted to play guitar so I decided to do it on my own. Then I found that I'd developed my own way of playing the guitar, born out of the fact that I was too lazy to use all my fingers, so I plucked with my thumb and my index finger, which is not good, but it creates an interesting sound. With the singing- it's just a natural thing. It was very private when I started, I was really shy about it. The idea of singing in front of anyone else would have freaked me right out, so I just developed it privately at home. I like the fact that my voice is just immediate, it's like talking, but singing. I think for the type of music that I do, it needs to sound more honest and more raw.
You started writing songs at age five… what were the first songs you wrote about?
I have no idea. I'd love to say it was something really cute, like it was about my dog or something, but I think it was just me putting words together. It was obviously just something I've always needed to do, if you put an instrument in front of me, I want to create on it. I don't want to play it, I want to write a song on it.
You played in a band with Cara Delevigne. What was the name of the band?
(Laughs). We had various names, we even asked our school to come up with a name for us and the winner would get ten pounds. I think eventually we were The Clementines, but it was very short-lived.
What's your favourite song that you played together?
We did like to play Natalie Imbruglia, but I think my favourite was Sixpence None The Richer, Kiss Me.
You have a distinctly different style from them, but you've received comparisons with Laura Marling and other female folk artists, which must be very annoying. Do you feel pressure to step outside what you want to do just to separate yourself from comparisons?
I can see why you would draw comparisons - we both have untrained voices and sing about dark things, so it's not frustrating in that sense. I think I just need to keep focused on what I'm doing and hopefully people will say 'She's an artists in her own right' and not just lump her together with another female artist from the UK.
I found it really interesting seeing what you've experimented with on your upcoming album, like playing instruments you hadn't played before and jumping up and down and hitting your head for percussion on 'Retina Television'. What is a sound you plan to, or would most like to experiment with in the future?
I wanted to do one track where there weren't any instruments. There's not an instrument on there, it's all sounds from my body, like tapping my teeth and jumping so there's a really clunky percussive sound. I think creativity can come from making tight parameters, like not using any instruments, to force yourself to think in a completely different way. I'd love to make a fully choral album in the future, maybe five years down the track.
Describe your onstage style…
Basically I just wear what I've been wearing that day (laughs). Or, for a bigger show, I will put on a big duster jacket, smart trousers, to look a little more impressive. I'm all about physical comfort, I need that for moving around on stage.
Your album has been released in Australia on Friday the 13th. Did you plan that?
I didn't know that! I think 13 is a great number, it holds a lot of power, so I love that!

Dear Mexican: I'm a pocha immigration attorney. Why do Mexicans seem to want me to lie to them and steal their money, and tell them they can become residents even when it's hopeless? Why can't Mexicans answer yes or no questions with a yes or no? Why do they have to give me long narratives that make no sense? If Mexicans claim that part of the reason they don't want to be in Mexico is because of government corruption, then why do they ask me to lie for them, and help them to lie? Why are polleros the rudest, most aggressive clients a lawyer could ever have? Why don't mexicanas want a female attorney, while mexicanos seem to think it's kind of cool? When I go into fast food restaurants in my power suits and order tacos, why do the mexicanas selling me the food giggle? When I tell a Mexican I don't think their case is winnable, why do they change from using "usted" with me to "tú"? When I tell a Mexican bad news, why is it that I get so nervous that my pocha accent comes out super strong? Pocha Attorney
Dear Wabette: Mexicans want you to tell them they can become residents because they are paying you to make their hopeless situation a legal one, lies or not. Their "long narratives that make no sense" is otherwise known as America's immigration system. They ask you to lie for them because the alternative is going back to Mexico's cesspool of corruption. Polleros are rude because they're criminals. Mexicanas not wanting you to represent them isn't a pocha thing but a female thing; Mexican men wanting you as an attorney, in turn, is all about an hombre ogling you. As a pocha, you shouldn't be eating fast food in the first place — and the mexicana-on-pocha hate is a female issue that Jezebel can answer. When a Mexican switches from usted to tú, it's because you're no longer someone deserving of their respect but the shyster scamming them out of cash. Finally, you start talking like a pocha because you don't like delivering bad news — that's understandable.
Why do so many Mexican parents let their kids play in the street unsupervised? Whitey

Dear Gabacho: The main reason is there's nowhere else for them to play. The lack of park spaces in barrios is an unfortunate phenomenon well-known to city planners. Compounding that is that most landlords in barrios don't allow kids to play in common areas.

'Since we started working with awamu we have been able to enrol over over 100 children in school by paying their school fees, providing books and uniforms…
….and more than 250 orphans and women living with HIV have acquired skills in mushroom growing, urban farming, tailoring and business management. Both children and women have gained confidence in themselves to seek for services and demand for their rights.'
"After going through HIV and AIDS counselling with a community worker, I decided to go for an HIV test and the results came back HIV positive.
"It took three months of continuous counselling, comforting and encouragement to be strong and confident before I came to terms with my status. Even though it was difficult, I was not discouraged but instead decided to join the fight to stop the spread of HIV and AIDS.
"Being born in the Bwaise, a slum area of Kampala, I know the living standards of women and girls. Many young girls join street sex workers in order to earn money to survive. I founded Tusitukirewamu (translated means 'United We Stand') youth group.
"Seeing how sex work places women in situations that lead to HIV and AIDS, Tusitukirewamu started talking to groups of young girls about HIV and AIDS. Many are young mothers between the age of 15-25. Currently, we have a team of about 70 sex workers in the youth club and with support from the partnership of awamu and ActionAid, we offer training in vocational skills to help them find different ways of earning an income so they can escape a a life of sex work.
"In our work amongst the community we find increasing numbers of orphaned children and grandmas, like Regina, looking after large numbers of grandchildren (ranging between 5-12) in a one-roomed household. These children have lost their parents to HIV and many are living with the disease themselves as it has been transmitted from their mothers.
"As an activist, I have managed to network and link with organisation that help provide Antiretroviral (ARV) medication, treatment for opportunistic infections, food and other material support and services. It is through these connections we met Emma and awamu was born!

Sally Long
Sally Long (December 5, 1901 – August 12, 1987) was a dancer and motion picture actress from Kansas City, Missouri. She graduated from Eden Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1921.
Florenz Ziegfeld insured Long for $100,000 against the possibility of her falling in love or marrying when she danced for his Ziegfeld Follies in the early 1920s. After performing with the Follies, Long appeared in the New York City comedy production of Scandals. Her rising popularity secured her a role in the cast of Kid Boots. Composer Milton Ager said Long was his inspiration for the song, I Wonder What's Become of Sally.
Film star[edit]
Long's first film experience came when Jesse Lasky secured fourteen of the prettiest women for parts in his The Dressmaker from Paris (1925). Produced by Famous Players, Long's character was noticed on the screen by filmmaker D.W. Griffith. Soon she appeared in a motion picture with Leatrice Joy.
Rudolph Valentino picked Long to play the leading feminine role in The Hooded Falcon. However her contract with Valentino expired before the film was made. Valentino changed his mind about the movie he wished to make. He decided to do a motion picture which called for a blond feminine lead.
Long opted to sign with A. H. Sebastian, Hollywood producer and executive head of Sebastian-Belasco Productions. Her first part with Sebastian was in Fifth Avenue (1926), playing a Greenwich Village girl. She next starred with Buck Jones in a Pathe Pictures production of the comedy, The Fighting Buckaroo (1926).
She was selected as one of the WAMPAS Baby Stars of 1926 along with Joan Crawford, Fay Wray, Mary Brian, Joyce Compton, and eight others. In 1927 she appeared in the serial King of the Jungle with Elmo Lincoln. Long's final screen appearances came in Cock o' the Walk (1930) and Traffic Tangle (1930). She studied voice beginning in 1932 with director Mitchell Leisen.
Personal life[edit]
Long married Leo Bovette Tuey in Kansas City in 1916, when she was fifteen years old. The couple had two children. Long divorced Tuey in December 1926. Long explained that she kept her marriage to Tuey a secret because it might have inhibited her career advancement.
She resided for a time with her mother in a large Spanish home at 628 Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, California. In August 1926 she moved to a cozier home in the Mexican Village a few blocks away, at 251 Crescent Drive.
Sally Long died in Newport Beach, California in 1987, aged 85.

NHS 'starved' my father says BBC newsman Jeremy Bowen
TV newsman Jeremy Bowen has told how his father was not fed or given water after an NHS blunder he described as "frightening".
He said his father was labelled "nil by mouth" when he should not have been and claims staff did not realise for 24 hours – and only then because the alarm was raised by his family.
He was also shocked that 84-year-old Gareth Bowen – who is bedridden and suffering from dementia – was left in the same clothes for several days after being admitted to University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff.
An investigation has now been launched by hospital chiefs after the BBC's Middle East editor posted a complaint about his father's poor care on Twitter.
The award-winning newsman, 54, tweeted: "Univ Hospital Wales didn't give my 84 yr old father food & water when there with chest infection. In error was 'nil by mouth'."
He said last night: "I'm a big believer in the NHS, big supporter of the NHS and user of the NHS.
It's very disappointing and saddening and frightening when things don't go right
"It's very disappointing and saddening and frightening when things don't go right."
He said his father was admitted to the hospital with suspected pneumonia on a Thursday.
It was only when his brother Matthew, 50, visited on Saturday and his father complained of thirst that it was discovered he had been put on a "nil by mouth" regime.
"My brother spoke to a nurse who said, 'I don't know what's going on there' and wasn't very helpful.
"Then he spoke to the guy who brought round the meals who told him, 'No, we're not giving him food because we've been told not to – he's nil by mouth'.
"That's what you do for people just before operations – which he wasn't having."
Bowen said it appeared his father, a retired journalist, had not had food or drink for his entire stay.
"There's some big question marks about his care," he said. "The hospital have accepted that there was an error made at ward level. It is just disappointing that a man of 84 didn't receive better care."
A third brother Nicholas, 52, a QC, said the family had experienced a catalogue of "extremely unfortunate interactions" with the Welsh NHS.
"My father has vascular dementia and has been very poorly," he added. "As a result of no food or water my father's cognitive state had deteriorated enormously. It begs the question, what may have happened if my brother hadn't visited?"
Mr Bowen senior is now back in his nursing home, getting "excellent care" and making good progress.
Cardiff and Vale University Health Board said: "We are very sorry to hear of the concerns outlined in Mr Bowen's tweet and an investigation into the very serious issue he raises is already under way."
University Hospital's mortality rates are 28 per cent above the average across the rest of Wales.

Spring 2017 Newsletter — Psychology Ranked No. 8 in U.S. News & World Report's Best Graduate Schools
Tue, June 6, 2017
U.S. News & World Report
The Department of Psychology — Number 8 in the U.S.
- U.S. News & World Report's Best Graduate Schools
The Psychology Department is proud to announce that our program is ranked Number 8 in the nation, according to U.S. News & World Report's 2018 edition of "Best Graduate Schools". Released in March, the No. 8 ranking is from among 255 schools in the U.S. with doctoral programs in psychology. The department ranks Number 5 from among those public universities surveyed.
Our Clinical Psychology program was ranked separately at Number 8—from among 224 doctoral programs in clinical psychology accredited by the American Psychological Associatio— in U.S. News & World Report's 2016 health survey, which was not updated this year.
UT Austin's Dell Medical School is too new to be ranked, but in addition to nursing and pharmacy, the university scored top ratings in several other health disciplines when they were updated in 2016 (including clinical psychology).
U.S. News & World Report's graduate rankings—separate from the magazine's yearly ranking of undergraduate programs—are among the most widely regarded ratings in higher education. They are based on surveys of academic leaders and, for select programs, additional quantitative measures including placement test scores, student/faculty ratios, research expenditures and job placement success.
The University of Texas at Austin as a whole has more than 40 graduate programs that were ranked among the top 10 in the nation and four programs that were ranked No. 1.
UT President Gregory L. Fenves said, "These rankings show, once again, that students at UT Austin learn from and collaborate with our exceptional faculty in all disciplines. The university's depth, breadth and scale of expertise makes it an engine for innovation, in which scholars work across disciplines to make new discoveries and solve challenging problems that change lives in Texas, the United States and the world."
The top rankings for graduate programs are consistent with other rankings for UT Austin, which has been named the 13th best value among public colleges (Kiplinger, 2016) and the 17th most productive university in the world for scientific research (Nature Index, December 2016). UT Austin has maintained these levels of excellence and improved in many rankings despite cuts in state support during the past decade.
See the UT press release for a list of all UT programs in U.S. News & World Report's top 40 this year.
