It is with regret that we advise that the Zindoga Villa has been ravaged by a fire. The thatch roof above the lounge area caught alight at approximately 04h30 on Saturday 07 July. Carl and his team were quick to respond, and all guests were immediately evacuated to the lounge area of the main camp. The team managed to save the furniture from the lounge and to contain the fire to the central section of The Villa. The suites have less damage, although the conjoining lounge and dining area are burnt beyond repair. The Zindoga Villa will be out of commission until further notice as the central structure will need to be reconstructed. Our reservations department will be in touch with agents and guests who have been booked into The Villa to make alternative arrangements. While we regret any inconvenience caused as a result of the fire, we are thankful that no one sustained any injuries. We will keep you updated with developments in due course. Thanks go to my team at Camp Jabulani and to the folks at Kapama Game Reserve who all rolled up their sleeves and pulled together to manage this very unfortunate situation. | ||||||||

Hana house description
When you dream of that peaceful and secluded little Hawaiian village by the sea it would be heavenly Hana, the most beautiful part of Maui. When you dream of that perfect bungalow overlooking the Pacific blue waters and coastline of Hana Bay it would be Hana Bay Hale.
Situated on a half acre of property overlooking Hana Bay, Hana Bay Hale is a favorite choice of both local Kama'aina and returning visitors. Hana Bay Hale offers privacy in three beautifully decorated suites in a great location. The refreshing Pacific trade winds and ceiling fans keep the Hana Bay Hale naturally cool through all seasons.
Located in the heart of Hana Town, Hana Bay Hale is made up of three separate bungalows, two one bedroom units; the Waikaloa suite and the Kauiki Suite and the two bedroom master Hana Bay Suite.
The two, one bedroom suites are connected to the master two bedroom suite by thirty-five foot enclosed walkways which can be opened to accommodate large families, friends traveling together or groups coming to Hana for special events such as wedding parties, festivals or community events.
Each of the two, one-bedroom suites, with private entrance, open beam ceilings and skylight, offer both spaciousness and privacy. Each bedroom is furnished with a king-size bed and can be separated from the main living area by shoji doors. The kitchenette is equipped with a microwave, electric frying pan, toaster, coffee pot and blender. Each lanai (deck) has an electric barbecue grill and a terrific view of Hana Bay and the ocean beyond. Our one bedroom suites accommodate four guests.
The two-bedroom Hana Bay Suite offers spacious and comfortable accommodation with a large skylight in the living area, private lanai with newly added jacuzzi spa and breathtaking oceanviews. Both bedrooms are furnished with king-size beds and the living room has a queen-size sleeper sofa. Let your culinary creativity take over in the fully-equipped kitchen or barbecue as the sun fades away on your private lanai. Our two-bedroom suite accommodates six guests.

We enjoyed the location and the view. The deck is awesome. However, the 2 bedroom unit is pretty run-down and wasn't cleaned very well. We had to wash the dishes before using them, the shower curtain had mold on it, there was a hole in the bathroom door. The toilet needs repairs as well.Did you find this review helpful?

We only spent one night at this amazing spot...would have like to stay for a week!. Hana is a wonderful, quaint little Hawaiian town and the "Hana Bay Hale" was the perfect spot to enjoy it from. The view from our unit was stunning and the condo provided us with absolutely everything we needed. Would love to go back and stay longer.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, sightseeing, romantic getaway, age 55+.

The view from the Hana Bay Hale was amazing! We checked in during a beautiful sunny afternoon and took advantage of sitting on the lanai and taking in the view of the ocean. The kids loved the large yard to run around in during the afternoon and viewing the stars as the evening sky began its display. There was plenty of room in the Hana Bay Suite for our family and our friends. The jacuzzi on the lanai was an added bonus and was a welcome treat after getting a little chilly in the ocean. I read the other reviews and would dispute many of their claims. Maybe we are the glass is half full kind of people but we will return to stay at the Hana bay hale again!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

We stayed at Hana Bay Hale over the weekend and we loved it! Great views of the bay. The place was tidy, with clean towels and linens. We had no problems and will be returning again. Excellent location in Hana. We could walk to snacks, Hana Bay and we did a morning walk up the hill to the cross. This is a great place to stay in Hana for families and groups! Thank you! Mahalo!Recommended for: Tourists without a car, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, sightseeing, romantic getaway, families with young children, people with disabilities, girls getaway.

I have to say we had an awesome stay here at the Hana Bay Hale. We stayed in the two bedroom master Hana Bay Suite. Arrived in the evening happily surprised to a HOT jacuzzi waiting for us. Made great use with the bbq grill on the large deck. Lots of room and very clean place. Love the geckos, they were outside chirping in the night. What else would you expect visiting a tropical place? Sorry, but we have bugs, geckos, spiders, roaches, and centipededs here in Hawai'i. If you expect to see none, know ahead of time, maybe you should book yourself a five star hotel. This place was perfect! Close to the local stores, beautiful beaches and wonderful fresh water ponds. The view was amazing, being able to relax on the deck looking out at the beautiful ocean out front. I guess we can see who sees the glass half full and who sees it half empty! Take a deep breath, relax, and enjoy ALL that Maui has to offer! Thanks Christine, we will see you again on our next visit...Recommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, sightseeing, families with young children, age 55+.
Owner response: It is nice to read a positive comment about our house. It is getting better by the day, we have done interior painting, replaced old sliding doors, fans, and light fixtures. With today's economy we are not able to do a large scale remodel but every little bit helps and I am proud of the progress we've made at our house. to better accommodate our guests.

Feedback for the Hana Bay Suite

- Review Submitted 08/12/12
We counted about 10 cockroach on the first night in the bathroom. The kitchen was quite dirty, and the Teflon pans where so broken that we hardly couldn't use them. The WIFI signal was so bad that we only could use it -sometimes- in the left bedroom. The flush of the toilette was running automatically every 15' In summary we rate it as to expensive for what it is. There is a road between condo and ocean but there is a beach half block away, so the pictures are not 100% accurate. We wouldn't stay at this place againOwner response: To our future renters, If I tried to defend myself to these horrible sounding claims, I would probably look worse than saying: Our house is beautiful, we are an ocean view property and our photo from the Ocean was taken from a boat looking back at our house. It is an accurate photo, a good photo demonstrating how close we really are to the ocean. Our house is 15 years old. We have quarterly exterminations and have the occasional roach or gecko stroll through. This is not uncommon for the tropics, but 10 live cockroaches, I sure wish they would've called so I could have witnessed that for myself and then I could have transferred our guests to a different location to deal with roach infestation. Since the stay of these unhappy guests, we have had no complaints of cockroaches and our exterminator is not scheduled to show until the end of this month. I do the housekeeping and reservations for the house and I clean with care each time a new guest is scheduled to arrive. There are always clean towels, linens, dishes, floors, toilets. . .house, we provide a clean house. Upon check out from our unhappy guests I double checked all our cookware and found no damage, scratches, or unusable items. I am apologetic to anyone that comes all the way out to Hana and does not enjoy themselves. It is a long way to come and can be quite expensive. When comparing our costs to the neighboring rentals, I'd say we are on the lower end, and when comparing costs to the Hana hotel , which does not have TV in their rooms, we are dirt cheap. I take all criticism as constructive and try to make sure that we do not encounter the same issues with our next guests. Mahalo for reading, Christine Medeiros Housekeeping / Reservations

The description was not accurate. In the Waikaloa Suite the kitchen was dirty. The coffeemaschine didn't work. The WIFI didn't work, so we could not call the owner. The TV was not usable. The door to the lanai was very hard to open. The lanai was not very clean. We were disappointed, that the owner doesn't give us a discount. We cannot recommend to friends or relatives.Owner response: Again, this unhappy group. I apologize that you felt this about your stay with us. These claims again are not quite accurate and not entirely fair. I was approached with this email before it was posted to VRBO and I realized that this group was looking for a discount after they had already checked out. I was contacted by this group everyday that they were with us by email. We replaced the coffee pot the first morning, and heard nothing of these other issues during the stay. I do not give discounts weeks after a party checks out. I was available on the property for the entire stay of this unhappy group and was not shown any of the discomfort until after the party left. I would have been able to consider a discount if the party had expressed all their concerns while they were here. I am sorry that these guests were no happy and that we will not be recommended to friends and family by them. Thank you again for reading, Christine Medeiros Housekeeping/Reservations

The view was great however the kitchen floor was so dirty we could walk without socks which were black by days end,finally found swifter and mopped floor. The first night we seen 3 cock roaches and 1 next night so we slept with the lights on, we also had to fix the screen door so we could use it without it falling off. The washer and dryer are always full from the cleaning staff so must empty however not much room to put sheets. This is a really nice place but needs a lot of detail cleaning and needs to be exterminated. There is a road between condo and ocean but there is a beach half block away, so the pictures are 100% accurate. I wouldn't stay at this place againOwner response: Aloha Readers, I remember this party and could sense their discomfort while they were here. I did receive a call concerning the House laundry being in the laundry room. I responded immediately arriving at the property where I found all laundry placed on grass outside of laundry room. Our laundry room is small and sometimes does get backed up. Since this incident, I have been taking the laundry home and washing it on my own time so that I do not create a problem for another guest who may want to use our laundry facility. It is hard to read some of these comments because I manage, clean, and handle reservations for this house almost by myself. In a way, it is hard not to take this personally. But, I take all this as constructive and will be sure that we do not encounter these same issues with other guests. Thank you for reading, Christine Medeiros Reservations/Housekeeping

Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web.

To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites.

Olbia, Sardinia
It took the locals some centuries to finally settle on 'Olbia' as the name for their town.
This corner of fabulously cosmopolitan North-Eastern Sardinia can boast influences from France, Spain and the Middle East. So perhaps it's no wonder that Italian-style cuisine and friendly Mediterranean charm await ever-increasing numbers of visitors from the UK.

Must see:
Get out of town and thoroughly unplug in the laid-back resorts and beautiful sandy coves of the Costa Smeralda – the Emerald Coast.
Must eat at:
Gallura has a fine reputation for great local dishes with a deliciously creative twist. Chef Rita D'Enza has been keeping a watchful eye over the kitchen for decades.
Must be there for:
The chic resort of Porto Cervo, on the Costa Smeralda, plays host to some of Italy's most upmarket sport every April and May when the Polo Gold Cup comes to town. Expect horsey types with Italian accents.
Well-travelled tips:
- If you've hired a car, take the road between Alghero and Bosa, for truly spectacular scenery to rival the best coastline on the Med.
- Spend a day on one of the world's first branded beaches. The Fiat Playa at Porto Rotondo, every July and August, has a chilled vibe and all mod cons including a resident DJ.

To The All,
Due to the one of the causes of this Catastrophe by Earthquake and Tsunami we are experiencing in Japan now, we first of all would like you to understand there is some possibility of Shipping items maybe a little delay, though I do not have any information about this now.
Then again as duplicated notification (http://hotoke-antiques.com/topics/2011/03/earthquake-tsunamis.html), please understand We & our Stock are mercifully in the safe place, and will regularly continue to work as usual.
However, on the other hand, the tens of thousands of victims in the damaged area can not get anything of life conservation including water, food, medicine, electricity, gas, etc. in this cold weather as the matter of present fact. Therefore, although this critical state will be getting a little more improved than now when the main land route to the damaged area is revived, they will still need MORE HELP definitely and We would appreciate you to give them donation from the some reliable charity organization in your country and pray for them.
Dai Okumura

MCKEES ROCKS, Pa. —
A McKees Rocks man was found fatally shot shortly after his girlfriend told police he left after answering an early-morning cellphone call. That's one reason Allegheny County homicide detectives believe the phone call and 19-year-old Javon Riley's death might be related. The victim's girlfriend said he was awakened by the call about 4 a.m. Monday and left without telling her why.
A short time later, neighbors heard gunshots and called police, who found Riley -- who was unarmed -- dead of bullet wounds near his girlfriend's car on Vine Street.
"It's really scary around here in the neighborhood right now," one neighbor said. McKees Rocks Police Chief Robert Cifrulak said police don't know why Riley was shot but are investigating the possibility that the phone call was part of a plot to lure him outside.
"We believe the gunshots or the actual shooting could have occurred sometime just after 4 a.m.," Cifrulak said.
Authorities said they're working to track down who called Riley minutes before the shooting.

Sequencing the Instruction |
Effective Instruction by Morrison, Ross, & Kemp, |
At first thought, you might decide that the best way to present your lesson is to use the topic or procedural analysis you completed. The analysis provides an outline for how you will teach the lesson. The way you have the information organized, or the way it is presented in the textbook may not be the best way to sequence the information for your learners. One company we know produced large, gas-powered gas turbine generators. They were about the size of semi-trailer. When a new model was introduced, a videotape was made of an expert literally walking around the product identifying all the various parts for a couple of hours. The tape became known as the instructor disco because they kept saying "dis go here and dis go there!" From an instructional standpoint it would have made more sense to describe each the various systems (gas, oil, air, etc.), or describe how the parts in sequence they produced the power. In this chapter, we will examine two different methods for sequencing content. You will use this information to sequence an entire course and to sequence the objectives for an individual lesson. |
1 |
You have probably seen a movie that was disorienting because it started in the future and then switched to the past. Similarly, you have probably read parts of a textbook or listened to a lecture where the presentation sequence made it very difficult to understand the ideas. This first reading presents Posner and Strikes guidelines for sequencing content. As you read this first section, consider the following questions.
Read pages 134 to 142. |
1 |
Using the objectives at http://www.ncpublicschools.org/workforce_development/vocats/blueprints/, find a set of objectives that you could sequence according to the guidelines presented for the Posner and Strike scheme: Indicate the objectives you have selected and provide a brief description of why you think the sequencing strategy is appropriate. Post your answers in the discussion board. Now, review the strategies posted by other students. Find at least three examples where another sequencing scheme might be appropriate. Post your rationale as a response to the original. |
2 |
The elaboration theory of sequencing makes a distinction between two different types of knowledge the learner must master. This approach provides guidelines for presenting the information in a way that will simplify it for the learner. Keep the following questions in mind as your read this section.
Read pages 143 to 146. |
2 |
Return to http://www.ncpublicschools.org/workforce_development/vocats/blueprints/. Using the two examples of content sequencing and task expertise sequencing, identify an objective(s) that would be appropriate for sequencing the content associated with the objective. Post your answers in the discussion board. Review the other postings and see if you agree or disagree with the example. |
Final Project |
This week you should identify the scheme you will use to sequence your objectives. Describe the scheme and the order for presenting each objective. |
Summary |
Appropriate sequencing can make the difference between an easy to comprehend lesson and difficult to comprehend lesson. Careful consideration of your content and your learners will help you identify appropriate sequencing strategies that can enhance learning and motivation. |

Scarlett was at the Today Show on monday looking this lovely. Watch the video here* She talked about working with animals, and with Cameron Crowe, and she was also asked about how she has dealt with this year afterdivorcing and the hacking scandal on what she said: GALLERY LINKS: |
Busy week for Scarlett! 'We Bought A Zoo' comes out next week and our girl is back in New York to promote it! She already attended a few TV shows as well as the movie premiere with all the cast, and will attend more talk shows this days. Keep checking Scarlett-Photos.com because I will be adding all there little by little, and it will be up before I post about it here on the main site. Or also, check the blog Scarlett Johansson Archive which is daily updated with pics, videos, etc. Thanks for your patience! I hope I can have all the news up later today! |
Hello Everyone! I'm so sorry for the lack of updates but I've been out of the city for a lot of days. I'm back home now and I will try to update everything! Let's start with the magazines. Scarlett graces the cover of several international publications, such as Marie Claire and Cosmpolitan. You can find them in our gallery, special thanks to Jhovanna and Phill for some of them! GALLERY LINKS: |
Scarlett continues in Scotland filming 'Under the Skin'. I've added the latest candids of her on set (also from her birhtday!): GALLERY LINKS: |
You can read the great article 'Scarlett Gives a Damn', interviewed by Ariana Huffington for Interview Magazine on the previous post. I've added the photoshoot outtakes to the gallery (Scarlett looks fierce!) and please if anyone could contribute with the scans it would be amazing! Also I would like to make a special mention to Phill, loyal fan of Scarlett and of this site, and who made something great for this site today. You're great, man! GALLERY LINKS: |
Scarlett Gives a Damn Scarlett Johansson's new film, We Bought a Zoo, is based on the true story of Benjamin Mee, a British journalist who moves with his family into a house on a piece of property that contains a private zoo that has fallen into disrepair. Following the untimely death of his wife, Mee decides to focus his energies on refurbishing the zoo and making a new home not only for the animals that live there, but for his grieving family as well. In the film, directed by Cameron Crowe, the locale is reset in Southern California, with Matt Damon playing the Mee role, and Johansson as the zookeeper who helps him with the project. All told, We Bought a Zoo is a heartwarming movie that brings to light the resilience of the human spirit, the kinship that can exist between people and animals, and numerous other wholly life-affirming ideas. But for those very same reasons, the film stands out in the Johansson oeuvre, which by and large is comprised of more fraught, conflicted material like Sofia Coppola's Lost in Translation (2003), or Woody Allen's Match Point (2005) and Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008), in which the philosophical takeaway is more ambiguous and bad things occasionally beget worse things as the characters struggle bitterly (and often unsuccessfully) to come to terms with parts of their lives that don't quite square up to their own expectations. So We Bought a Zoo is a different kind of movie for Johansson, and it arrives at what has turned out to be a very different kind of time for her, too. |
Scarlett turns 27 years old today so happy birthday to our girl (and to her twin brother Hunter)! Professionally, it's been a really great year for her, we're going to see her on the movies three times between this year and 2012! That's great!.The only bad thing is her divorce from Ryan Reynolds, but now she seems to be enjoying single life and that's good for her. On behalf of all of the fans, we would like to send out congratulations to our favorite star! |

Scarlett has been filming 'Under The Skin' these days in some different locations in Scotland. I've added 40+ pics from October 31, November 1 and Novermber 3 to the gallery. GALLERY LINKS: |

SYCAMORE — The Mohawk FFA has been busy with projects, contests and other activities.
According to press releases from the Mohawk FFA, 25 members traveled to area agricultural businesses in early November for tours of their facilities. The purpose of the trip was to expose students to the importance of agriculture in the community and show them a variety of careers available in the industry.
A stop at Nevada-based Mennco Grain, a division of Mennel Milling, started the day. While there, students experienced the grain industry first-hand and sampled loads of grain as they came to the elevator.
From there, the group traveled to agricultural service agencies in Upper Sandusky, including Ag Credit, Farm Service Agency, Wyandot Soil and Water Conservation District and the Natural Resources Conservation District. For many students, this was their first exposure to the organizations.
While at the office, they also visited UC Walton Realty.
The group then stopped at Ohio CAT in Upper Sandusky, where they heard about careers in the agricultural service agency.
After leaving Upper Sandusky, the group stopped at North Central Veterinary Services in Sycamore, where students learned about careers in animal sciences, including veterinary medicine. Representatives from Seneca County Farm Bureau then spoke to the group and provided lunch for students.
The final stop of the day was at Genex Cooperative, where students learned about artificial insemination and the size and scope of the business.
The business tour was a new activity for the Mohawk FFA chapter.
Members who attended were Jena Baum, Caleb Bollinger, Meghan Chaffee, Tori Chaney, Lydia Coldiron, Morgan Edgington, Kelsea Fleming, Olivia Johnson, Joanie Lininger, Kevin Lonsway, Chelsy Mattox, Sabrina McDermott, Austin Miller, Deon Morter, Katie Pinkston, Grant Price, Logan Reinhart, Jarred Shellhouse, Paige Sigler, Dominic Smith, Vanessa Stull, Bri Thiery, Darby Walton and Austin Wise.
The Mohawk FFA's parlimentary procedure team recently participated in contests. The team consisted of President Jarred Shellhouse, Vice President Deon Morter, Secretary Kayla Draper, Treasurer Lindsay Daniel, Reporter Emily Daniel, Sentinel Darby Walton, student adviser Brady Kohlenberg and member Ciara Long.
The team participated in the county-level competition, held at Riverdale High School, where it placed second. At the sub-district contest at Upper Sandusky High School, the team again placed second to qualify for the district-level competition. At the district contest, hosted by Clyde High School, Mohawk placed fifth.
In a parlimentary procedure career development event, members are judged on their ability to run a business meeting. They discuss motions and use approved rules of parlimentary procedure.
This year, the Mohawk FFA held a new activity to bring attention to the struggles of homelessness and poverty.
The activity, called Bring Your Own Box, encouraged students to camp out in a cardboard box to simulate the challenges of being homeless. Members raised $1,000 in donations from local businesses to sponsor the event and to purchase gifts for families around the community in need during the holidays. Students also collected almost 200 pounds of canned food that was donated to the Sycamore Food Pantry.
At the camp-out, students heard from Sycamore Mayor Matt Boucher and his wife, Jennifer, about the importance of being involved within the local community and helping those in need. There also were activities planned throughout the evening to demonstrate the struggles that people experiencing poverty may face.

Now that you have assembled your Get Home Bags, per last week's assignment, it is time to make plans for when you may have to use them. Disasters can strike anywhere and at any time and you could end up having to make your way home or to another safe location unexpectedly.
Sit down and give some thought to your regular travel schedule. Naturally most of us go to work on a daily basis. Where else do you travel in the course of an average week or month? Do you routinely visit relatives out of town? Shopping trips? Doctor appointments?
Make a list of all the out of town places you go on a regular basis. Then, for each one of them, plan out multiple routes to get back home. Consider you may be on foot during your journey, depending on the nature of the disaster. Pay close attention to bridges and other potential obstacles. You may want to plan routes that take you around cities and towns, rather than going straight through. While direct routes will be quicker, it may be beneficial to avoid large groups of people.
Once you have your routes planned, test them out. Get to know each of those different routes intimately. If possible, travel them at different times of the day and night. Landmarks can look very different at midnight than they do at noon.
Consider how long it would realistically take for you to make those journeys on foot. The average person can probably walk no more than two or three miles an hour. If you're in better shape, you'll do better than that. But remember, you'll be loaded down with your emergency kit. The hope though is that you'll be able to use your vehicle for most if not all of your journey.
If realistic planning dictates you'll probably have to spend at least one night "in the rough" on your way home, scope out likely places to hole up. Look for reasonably safe places you could rest up for a few hours before continuing on, such as parks. You may not have the luxury of being able to secure a motel room for a night.
Look for locations where you can resupply on your trek, particularly where you can find water. Rivers, streams, lakes, other natural sources of water. Be sure your emergency kit has several means of filtering and purifying water.
Your assignments this week:
1) Plan multiple bug out routes from all your normal travel destinations, including your place of employment. Ideally you'll have at least three routes from each location.
2) Begin traveling those alternate routes on a regular basis. Pay attention to how the routes "look" at different times of day and in different seasons.
3) Add a few gallons to your water storage.
Have a great week everyone!

Posted October 05, 2011 on
AP on Fox
Prosecutors have filed a felony weapons charge against former NBA player Darius Miles for allegedly trying to take a loaded handgun through security at a St. Louis airport two months ago.
St. Louis County prosecutors charged Miles on Friday with the unlawful use of a weapon, which carries a maximum four-year prison term, for allegedly trying to pass through Lambert Airport security with the gun in his carry-on bag on Aug. 3.
Miles, 29, arrived at St. Louis County jail on Monday and posted 10 percent of his $15,000 bond before leaving, a jail official said.
There is no phone number listed for Miles' home in the St. Louis suburb of Swansea, Ill., and he could not immediately be reached Wednesday for comment. His attorney, Scott Rosenblum, did not respond to phone messages Wednesday seeking comment.
The TSA said that passengers can carry firearms, parts and ammunition on airplanes, but only in checked bags. The weapons must be unloaded and packed in a hard-sided container, and declared to the airline during the counter check-in process. The agency also urges passengers to contact their airline for its firearm and ammunition policies.
Miles, who last played in the NBA with the Memphis Grizzlies during the 2008-09 season, has been in trouble before. He was arrested in May 2009 after Fairview Heights, Ill., police said they found a small amount of marijuana after Miles was pulled over for a turn signal violation. He was also ticketed for driving with a suspended license.
The drug charge was dismissed in May 2011 after Miles completed a drug education course, according to online court records. He pleaded guilty in December 2010 to the driving-while-suspended charge and was placed under court supervision for one year and assessed $1,000 in fines and court costs.
Miles was suspended for 10 games during his only season with the Grizzlies for violating the NBA's substance abuse policy.
Miles was the third overall pick in the 2000 NBA draft, joining the Los Angeles Clippers after a standout high school career in East St. Louis, Ill. The 6-foot-9 forward played for four teams during his eight seasons in the league, including the Portland Trail Blazers and the Cleveland Cavaliers. In 446 career games, he averaged 10.1 points and 4.9 rebounds.

Just copypasta Black Garden, rename it to Twink Garden and let all the twinks twink each other in there. Enjoy your PvP.
You are the one who presented an idea that would include a handful of 'if' statements and restrictions.
Can only wear items if
Can only lock xp if
Can only have X amount of stats if in Y scenario.
Can't lock XP if you are queing for a WF and level 18, 19, 28, 29, 38, 39, 48, 49. But can lock XP if you are any level but not if you pvp at the certain levels in WFs then you have to unlock.
This is already getting complicated to code. Simple is yay or nay. Not...well if, if, only if, but, then, only if, if.

That's assuming there are any queue pops to be had after the first week or two beyond implementation. Most likely, it'll be called the Secret Garden because nobody will get to see it 'til 50 when they have next-to-no favor to buy the first basic set with, and have no real PvP experience, and get roflstomped continuously by fresh 50 alts, plus the geared players, and think the PvP blows. In other words... I see this as just another nail in the coffin for keeping new players engaged, as well as chasing off folks that are disgusted with the state of level 50 PvP and its imbalances and want to play in slightly more balanced lower tiers.
To the OP - I certainly agree with making augments and notoriety runes applicable [there are still several that are very overpowered at lower levels that are applicable to level 1 items - i.e. Runeguard, Red Scar Trackers, Arcane Hand (?) and lower] scale with level like other gear and crafted runes. I agree with stat caps that scale with level.
Just leave xp lock alone. It's fine as it is, if they'd just fix the augment/rune issues, and also make the source engines scale with slot capacity to level (i.e. 6 slots at 50, 5 at 40, 4 at 30, 3 at 20, and keep the basic quested 2-slot through 19) (so you can't have a level 12 xp-locked with 6 purple essences from prior events, plus event jewelry weapons, etc - stat caps would mitigate those items efficacy in PvP, while leaving them intact for PvE'ers).
Huzzah - Rogue -=- Rhowyn - Cleric
Head Wench of <Shiny> Defiant, Wolfsbane
(Formerly <Serenity> of Sunrest, may the shard rest in peace)
Each of the three components of the solution I suggested have already been implemented to some degree.
- A few weeks ago, the level requirement was adjusted on epic faction runes to prevent them from being used on low level gear. I'm suggested augments should receive the same treatment. Many others have suggested this as well.
- There is already a general consensus that grandfathered items should not be available for PvP.
- Stat caps are nothing new. Other MMO's have had them for some time. LOTRO and Warhammer Online have them, and I believe WoW does too.
- Rift lite players already have a special case exp lock at 20. And it would be trivially easy to restrict exp locking to certain levels. It would in fact be 1 line of code. I don't believe you are giving Rift developers due credit.
Again, the changes I have suggested are logical, would be easy to implement, and would eliminate the gear advantage of level locked players. I hope Trion reads this thread and seriously considers making these common sense changes.
BTW: the changes I have suggested are much simpler than the rules and restrictions already in place for Rift lite players. If it is reasonable to ask trial players to understand a more complex set of restrictions, then experienced players should have no difficulty grasping a subset. And Trion has proven themselves to be more than capable of making these sorts of changes as needed.
Thanks for reading.

I proposed the idea of stat caps through the bolstering system in my thread, unfortunately, twinks just want to have the advantage. Any advantage. They feel they shouldn't have to be punished since they put in extra effort, it is a gear based (i.e. progression) game after all. Of course this mentality may have changed now that Trion has turned off twinking.

Nominated for: BEST Auto Repair
This is for the location in PARKER. They do go that extra step. They are convenient and the shuttle is great.
I have three vehicles that we take there for regular service as well as large repairs (though they take such good care, it is rarely needed). I always call around to find out about service at other places to get the best price and they always have it better.
Everyone there is friendly, you are always greeted immediately and they never try to sell you services you do not need or look for problems where there are none and upsell - like dealerships do.
Vote: BEST Auto Repair
They are WORST, not best! This is only way to tell customers. They screwed up our truck when we brought it in for one small thing - came back with that not fixed but now 2 more things THEY broke. Brought it back, they fought to try to not fix it, finally said yes they would, but got it back, TWO MORE things were broken, we think on purpose. BAD service, BAD repairs, just BAD BAD place.

41st annual Mozel Sanders Thanksgiving Day DInner aims to feed 43,000 in 2012
Volunteers work overnight
Posted: 11/22/2012
Last Updated:
382 days ago
INDIANAPOLIS - Volunteers were hard at work Thanksgiving morning, preparing meals to feed more than 43,000 Hoosiers in need as part of the 41st annual Mozel Sanders Thanksgiving Day Dinner.
The work started overnight in the kitchen at Butler University's Atherton Union.
The meals, which include turkey, dressing, gravy, green beans, apple crisp and rolls, are assembled by 3,000 volunteers and then distributed to dozens of satellite locations.
"Once you do it, it's hard not to come back," said Kim Baker, who has been volunteering at the event for eight years.
It costs about $80,000 to pull off the event, and organizers said they were still about $3,500 short Thursday morning.
"We want to feed more people," said board member Shannon Joseph. "We'll be taking donations through today and through the next week."

I came across an article this weekend that I thought would be of interest to our readers. As the headline says, it is becoming increasingly more complex for individuals in long term skilled care facilities to qualify for Medicaid. The criteria to qualify for Medicaid is updated quarterly and what was an effective planning technique a year ago or even a few months ago may not be an effective planning technique today. A couple examples of recent changes in the Medicaid laws are extending the look back period for gifts to 5 years from 3 years, and the implementation of estate recovery.
The article gives a couple helpful tips as to how to protect and preserve your assets and still qualify for Medicaid. The most important tip, and one that I cannot stress enough, is to seek professional help. The Medicaid laws are increasingly complex so it is important that you meet with an attorney that specializes in elder law. Many attorneys who aren't experienced elder law attorneys often times are unaware of the strategies that can be implemented to qualify an individual in a long term skilled care facility for Medicaid. By meeting with an experienced elder law attorney, you ensure that you will receive the proper advice on how to provide your loved one with the greatest quality care at the least cost to the family.
If you have a loved one in a long term skilled care facility or a loved one who will need long term skilled care in the near future, and want to learn more about how you can protect and preserve their assets, contact the experienced elder law attorneys at Barsch & Joswick, PLLC to find out how we can help you.

He's been out of sight though not out of mind (or skype) since my own wedding 6 years ago and when I found out that he would be marrying his dreamgirl in Kelowna, Canada, there was no way that I was gonna miss out on the fun. So, I packed my bags last Tuesday evening and headed out at the crack of dawn Wednesday morning for the frozen North. Only it wasn't frozen. In fact the weather was awesome and complemented the scenery in Kelowna perfectly. It was great to see you again Gav and to meet your beautiful bride Tausha. Your future looks bright and I hope that it brings you everything that you ever dreamt it might. I would like to thank everybody who made my trip so much fun. Carla and Leanne for fetching and dropping me at the airport. Adam and Gary for putting up with all of my questions as I tried to catch up on 6 years of Southern Hemispherean sport in 3 days. Rikk and Karin for hosting us on Friday night and of course Tausha and Gavin for putting me up for the weekend. And finally Annabelle who stole my heart and had me homesick for my girls from the moment that I met her. Enjoy these pics and I hope to have the rest up soon.

Toyota Celica GT / GTS / ST 1986-1993, 40 Series Delta Flow Aluminized Steel Muffler by Flowmaster®, AGGRESSIVE SOUND, 2" Center Inlet / 2" Center Outlet, 4" Thick x 9.75" Wide x 13" Case Length x 19" Overall Length. The 2-chamber design of this muffler, incorporating the patented Flowmaster Delta Flow Technology, has enabled the company to create a performance muffler with an aggressive exterior sound combined with a subdued (but noticeable) interior resonance. This is a muffler that makes a true performance statement without being overly tiring for the driver.
- The Quietest Option in the 40 Series Two Chamber Line
- Less Resonance than other 40 Series Mufflers
- Advanced Two-Chamber Design Incorporating Patented Delta Flow Technology
- Available in 409S Stainless Steel or Aluminized Mild Steel
- Available with either Single or Dual Outlets
- 3-Year Warranty for Aluminized Mild Steel
- Limited Lifetime Warranty on Stainless Steel Mufflers
Like all Flowmaster mufflers, the 40 Series Delta Flow mufflers improve exhaust scavenging for increased torque and horsepower. The precision positioned Delta deflectors have a dual function, as they are positioned to create a low pressure zone that improves exhaust scavenging, while also reducing the interior resonance. The unique design of the 40 Series two chamber delta flow mufflers makes them perfect for performance cars used daily or on long drives. The exterior sound will turn heads, while the interior sound level provides the driver with the beautiful music of a performance engine at a comfortable sound level. The mufflers are fully MIG welded for maximum durability and you have a choice between aluminized mild steel and stainless steel construction.
Flowmaster mufflers differ in technology and tuning, and thus in tone and character, to give your performance engine a sound to your personal liking.
All Flowmaster mufflers are tuned for maximum performance. All Flowmaster mufflers produce a beautiful deep performance tone. Choosing the right Flowmaster muffler is not a technical decision it is all up to your personal taste. Its A Sound Decision®.
Flowmaster mufflers employ two unique technologies developed by the company; the patented Delta Flow and the Laminar Flow. They give different characters of sound and can be tuned to achieve the desired exhaust note. Flowmaster Exhaust System Technology is so versatile, and gives such a high degree of control, that it is used both by racers, who want maximum power, and by the U.S. Air Force in Stealth applications where maximum silence and minimum heat emissions are prime considerations. Be it for a domestic or import truck, SUV, off-road warrior, daily driver, muscle car, euro-spec cruiser or sport compact vehicle Flowmaster always has the right muffler for you.
89.99Brand: Flowmaster Part Number: 942040 UPC: 700042015375Flowmaster® has its roots in solving the engine noise problems encountered by California racers in the 1980s. In 1983 Flowmasters founder, Ray Flugger, created his first patented design of racing silencers, which dampened noise with minimal loss of power. Ray attached handles to ease carrying the square shaped race mufflers through the race pits, and the mufflers became known as the "suitcase mufflers." Today, the innovative Flowmaster mufflers are the result of years of development with top race engine builders, thousands of hours of dyno research and "real-world" on-track testing.

| Posted by Joseph M. | (Junction City, KS)Money well-spent. Delivered on time with all necessary pieces. Installation was a breeze, only taking a few hours, and no helping hands were needed. Installation was conducted in the parking lot of my apartment complex after dark due to hot temperatures. Best of all, I didn't need to jack up the truck (no lift kit either). Instead I used my jack only to support the muffler throughout the process. After driving the first few times, I recommend going back under one last time to check the clamps and tips after heating up. Now my truck has a moderate powerful sounding rumble at start up idle and cruise speed.

Women's Division Calls for Broader View on Middle-East Conflicts
Press Release
For Immediate Release
Contact: Dana E. Jones, 212-870-3755
Directors of the Women's Division of the United Methodist General Board of Global Ministries called for increased awareness and analysis of ongoing conflicts in the Middle East in a five-point recommendation adopted during their annual meeting in Stamford, Conn., in October. Directors drafted the action after hearing the testimonies of a mission intern and a graduate student who were in Beirut, Lebanon, during the Israel-Hezbollah-Lebanon hostilities this summer.The action urged United Methodist Women members to:
- Seek additional perspectives on Middle-East issues beyond those presented by mainstream media, especially during times of war. Resources for these perspectives may include Response; New World Outlook; mission studies of the Women's Division and United Methodist General Board of Global Ministries; and websites of the Women's Division, General Board of Global Ministries, and General Board of Church and Society.
- Critically evaluate justifications given by political, religious and other sectarian leaders for military attacks or declared war.
- Contact media outlets when reports on conflicts do not include the voices of all parties impacted by the hostilities, including civilians.
- Engage their elected representatives about the impact of conflict on women, children and youth of the Middle East.
Ryan Clayburn of Poteau First United Methodist Church in Poteau, Okla., is a mission intern of the United Methodist General Board of Global Ministries who was working with the World Christian Student Federation in Beirut, Lebanon, when the Israeli-Hezbollah-Lebanon war began last summer. Stephen McInerney of Southern Pines First Baptist Church in Southern Pines, N.C., had just returned to Beirut for graduate studies at American University when newscasts reported on Hezbollah's capture of two Israeli soldiers. Both men said Beirut was a beautiful modern-day city before the bombing and lamented the devastating military attack on the country.
In their presentation to directors, they expressed concern that U.S. media coverage of the conflict did not give people an accurate understanding of the impact of the attack.
"A lot of people have an image that Beirut is always war-torn," Mr. McInerney said. "But for 16 years, there wasn't war, and that went mostly unnoticed in the United States. It wasn't in the news. So there wasn't an appreciation for what had happened because of the bombing."
Mr. McInerney said during the three years he lived in Beirut, there were violent incidents on the Israel-Lebanon border every several months. Hezbollah's capture of two Israeli soldiers made the news, but no one expected it would result in a war, he said.
"Everyone expected an Israeli response, but not the extent of it," Mr. McInerney said. "That evening I went out to dinner with a friend. Next morning I could hear a series of booms. I didn't know what they were. I thought maybe they were Israeli jets flying over Beirut as a show of force. I got up and found out Israel had bombed the Beirut airport. Everyone's response was, `Hezbollah doesn't use the commercial airport. What's that got to do with us?' The day before, they bombed out about a dozen bridges. Everyone was in shock."
To Mr. McInerney and his friends, discussions in Western media about whether Israel's response was excessive were farcical debates, he said. By the time Israel dropped flyers announcing the bombing and telling people to leave the city, the bombing had been under way for several days, he said.
"I got angry hearing Israeli news reports basically saying that anyone still there had bombs in their bedrooms or were supporting Hezbollah `because we told them to leave,'" he said. "It was blatantly false. I was so angry to not hear the Israeli prime minister called on that by any reporter. Leaving home is not an easy thing to do. There are Palestinians to the South who fled fighting in 1948 and haven't been able to go back to their homes since."
The destruction was devastating, Mr. McInerney said.
"It would be like if you took a 30-block area in Manhattan and knocked every building down," he said.
After seven days of the conflict, Mr. McInerney was evacuated to Cyprus on a Norwegian cargo ship. Once back in Boston, he eagerly talked to media, hoping to add a new perspective to what was being aired.
"I'd say all of these things about the atrocities, and then they would ask what kind of ship did you take out of Cyprus," he said. "I'd say, `A Norwegian cargo ship, and that's what would be played. Everything else would be cut out. I don't believe the United States could have supported Israel if U.S. media coverage wasn't so poor. Poor media coverage makes war atrocities possible."
As a mission intern, Mr. Clayburn was working for peace even before the most recent conflict began. He coordinated programs designed to build bridges between youth in religious communities in the region. In a program offered before the war, French and Lebanese, who are Christian and Muslim, focused on the theme "Religion: Sources of Peace or Violence."
"My job duties in Beirut focused on building a dialogue between Muslims and Christians," said Mr. Clayburn, who began his work in July 2005. "The war cut short programs we'd spent a year to plan."
Deciding to leave Lebanon when the bombing intensified was a difficult decision for Mr. Clayburn because it called on him to leave behind friends who could not leave the country. Leaving was also dangerous.
"The road that I took out of Lebanon was bombed four times behind me," he said. "I saw it on CNN when I finally reached a hotel room in Syria.
"When I left, I didn't know I was going to Syria. I thought was going into the mountains, where Christians had gone to escape persecution for centuries, but my Lebanese friend encouraged the driver to take us farther till we had passed Tripoli. The driver said, `I have two sons now,' and took us to the border. I wonder if he made it back."
