Southern Exposure: Tsali Day 1 // 23 Miles
With the heavy traveling miles behind us we set out to NOC this morning to pick up Amanda's rental mountain bike, a Specialized Camber 29. After the super easy process, we were on our way to Tsali, a short 15-minute drive through the Nantahala Gorge and surrounding national forest.
Tsali has 4 trails and each day 2 of them are designated for mtb'ing and the other 2 for horseback riding. Today's trails were the Left and Right Loops, which are the more challenging of the group — good amount of climbing, creek crossings and quick descents.
Amanda got the hang of the 29er fairly quick and was soon crushing roots and cruising through creek crossings. We rode both loops and called it a day knowing we would be back tomorrow to ride Mouse Branch and Thompson Loop and would need some legs for it. It's good to be back.
Trout for dinner!

text: Nude sunbathers can continue to use a secluded stretch of San Onofre State Beach, unless someone objects. Judge Sheila Fell of Orange County Superior Court ruled Wednesday that state parks officials could cite sunbathers and swimmers in the nude only if a private citizen complained. It is the same policy that has been in place since 1979, but complaints of lewd behavior prompted a crackdown by state parks officials earlier this year in which state parks officials announced they would outlaw nudity as of Sept. 2.

Dish Disses FCC AWS-4 Proposal
Says limitations on its spectrum use could delay investment, jobs and broadband rollout 11/20/2012 10:41:15 PM EasternDish network called a just-circulated FCC draft proposal for freeing up AWS-4 wireless spectrum for terrestrial use "significantly flawed."
Responding to "reported accounts," including in B&C/Multi, that the proposal would put limitations on Dish's use of its 40 MHz of that spectrum, the company said that those lmitations on its power and emissions would "cripple" its ability to do business.
"The good news is that this proposed order is not final and we urge Chairman Genachowski and the Commissioners to recognize that the Dish plan delivers on the greatest public interest - the most investment, the most jobs and the most spectrum," said Stanton Dodge, Dish executive VP and general counsel. "We stand ready to work with the full Commission on final rules that put the full AWS-4 spectrum to work for America and that advance the future potential of the H Block."
An FCC source said they expected there would be enough votes to pass the draft.
FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski Tuesday released both an item allowing for terrestrial use of Dish's spectrum, and one seeking comment on auction of the currently unused H Block spectrum. It is required to auction that spectrum by the legislation creating the spectrum incentive auctions. Funds from that H Block sale will fund the creation of an interoperable broadb and communications network, which was also in the legislation.
According to sources, the AWS-4 item requires Dish to take steps to mitigate interference with potential jusers of the H block, which is in an adjacent band.
Dish says that if it has to render some of its spectrum unusable to accommodate "possible future use of neighboring H Block spectrum by Sprint," it could add years to the process of launching a wireless business and delay the investment, jobs and broadband buildout the FCC is trying to promote by loosening satellite spectrum rules.
"The AWS-4 rulemaking should be completed with the power and emissions levels that were recommended by the FCC in its April Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) and supported by most commenters (with the notable exception of Sprint), and which would not require Dish to effectively surrender 25% of its uplink capacity," said Dodge.

6251 N Military TrlWest Palm Beach, FL 33407
Phone: (561)842-0480Fax: (561)842-2376
This is a very tight executive course due to all the pine trees. The terrain is basically flat, but there are some mounds that can affect your lies. The large greens are gently rolling and medium speed. There are no sand bunkers on this course, but there are six grass bunkers and two water hazards coming into play on four holes. The signature hole is #15, a 370-yard, par 4, requiring a perfectly placed tee shot to a small landing area, or else you are lost in the trees.

2009 Infiniti G37 Poses with T10 LED Bulbs for Parking Lights
by iJDMTOY on Dec.11, 2012, under LED & HID News and Updates
This gorgeous 2009 Infiniti G37 makes great impression, thanks to the T10 LED bulbs for parking lights. It looks like a sexy fashion model, posing for some famous photograph. These Parking Light LED bulbs perfectly match with the OEM HID headlights and what's for sure, this combination is smokin' hot!
Thanks to the innovative 360 degrees shine design, the featured 5-SMD 5050 T10 Wedge LED bulbs have great lighting output, that will make you say "wow!" once turned on. What's more, they will replace stock bulb sizes: 158, 168, 175, 194, 2825, 2827, W5W, 912, 921, which means they are universal fit and you can give very nice and elegant look to your car, too! Plus, these shiny things are very affordable and you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out how to replace the dim, worn out factory incandescent bulbs with the new Xenon White T10 LED bulbs.
Well, this guy here probably had to jack the car up and remove tire to gain access to the LED parking lights sockets of this 2009 Infiniti G37, but if you know your car, then it won't be a problem to do it yourself. The basic thing is to locate the parking lights socket, take out the stock bulb and plug in the LED one. Then test if bulb lights up before putting back everything together and if it does, then you've successfully accomplished your goal to add a nice touch to your car.
The owner of this 2009 Infiniti G37 made a great choice, upgrading his old lights with new T10 LED bulbs, because LED lights are cleaner and brighter. They increase driving safety by making the vehicle more visible to other drivers, and at last, but not the least – they are much more attractive and longer lasting than incandescent bulbs.

Posted by Brad A. Greenberg
Last week I mentioned the amazing story of Christian convert Masab Yousef. What made Yousef's story so surprisingly was his background as the eldest son of Hamas' leader in the West Bank. Yousef was raised on a religious diet of hating the infidels and the state of Israel. Now born-again and living with tens of thousands of Israelis in California, Yousef, who goes by Joseph, has spoken out against Hamas and in support of Israel, which he misses and doesn't expect to see again.
In this interview with Ha'aretz's Avi Issacharoff, Joseph recalls how prison opened his eyes to the "real Hamas" and a simple act of evangelism planted the seed that changed his life. He sends his regards to Israel and calls Islam "a big lie":
"I feel that Christianity has several aspects. It's not only a religion but a faith. I now see God through Jesus and can tell about him for days on end, whereas the Muslims won't be able to say anything about God. I consider Islam a big lie. The people who supposedly represent the religion admired Mohammed more than God, killed innocent people in the name of Islam, beat their wives and don't have any idea what God is. I have no doubt that they'll go to Hell. I have a message for them: There is only one way to Paradise - the way of Jesus who sacrificed himself on the cross for all of us."
"I left behind a great deal of property in Ramallah in order to achieve true freedom. I wanted to get to quiet surroundings that would help me to open the eyes of the Muslims and reveal the truth to them about their religion and about Christianity, to take them out of the darkness and the prison of Islam. In that way they'll have an opportunity to correct their mistakes, to become better people and to bring a chance for peace in the Middle East. I don't give Islam a chance to survive for more than 25 years. In the past they scared people and in that way they prevented anti-religious publicity, but today, in the modern age, they won't be able to hide the truth any longer."
At the moment he doesn't have a partner, but he is relying on help from above on this matter, too. "I hope that someday God will give the opportunity to meet the right one. She will have to be a believing Christian, and if she's a Jew who converted, even better."
Sorry, Joseph, I'm no Yente.

Especially with the extended regexps used in procmail, it is very easy match variable length patterns. To take care of the case above, use a recipe like: PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin :0 * ^To:[ ]*[0-9] | junclient The '[ ]*' means an arbitrary number of spaces or tabs (including none). If you wanted to allow for arbitrary comment text in front of the address, such as this example: To: "The Defender Of the Truth" 12345(_dot_)4567(_at_)aohell(_dot_)com then you might consider a recipe condition like this: * ^To:(.*[^0-9a-zA-Z])?\/[0-9.]+ after a successful match, $MATCH will be the user-portion of the address (assuming that the user addresses are all numeric or periods, like A-O-HELL accounts). *Please* read up on regexps: see the man page on egrep(1).

DNR Report: Nov. 16
Reports filed Sunday by Minnesota Department of Natural Resources conservation officers.
Conservation Officer Darin Fagerman (Grand Marais) reported a fairly quiet week as far as deer hunting goes. There were not as many hunters around in his station as in years past. Many of the hunters checked reported not seeing a single deer and very little deer sign. The officer did handle a trespassing call and found two more baited deer stands. Trapping violations were dealt with.
Conservation Officer Thomas Wahlstrom (Tofte) spent the week checking deer hunters. The Officer responded to many calls related to hunter harassment, illegal ATV use, shooting after hours and hunting deer over bait. Wahlstrom assisted the county and followed up on past big game investigations.
Conservation Officer Mary Manning (Hovland) investigated complaints of hunter harassment, hunting deer over bait and unregistered deer. The officer followed up with U.S. Forest Service law enforcement on a bear bait station left in place from this fall. Manning also worked deer shiners and took calls regarding trespassing and the current wolf hunt.
Conservation Officer Brad Johnson (Silver Bay) reported that he continued to check deer hunters and wolf hunters. The weekend weather was not good for the hunt. He investigated a report of deer baiting. Johnson responded to a complaint of illegal trapping and also checked on an illegal deer stand.
Conservation Officer Marty Stage (Ely) worked deer hunting issues throughout the week. Deer season is half over and disturbing calls are coming in about deer with their back straps and choice parts being taken, but the rest being left for whatever reason. If you have any information about these incidents, we are always interested. Please call the TIP line to report these violations, your information is kept confidential. Statewide toll-free: 1-800-652-9093
Conservation Officer Anthony Bermel (Babbitt / Ely) reported completing a trespassing investigation resulting in three citations being issued. Time was spent working a night hunting complaint area. Road hunting complaints are coming in. Other enforcement action included an unregistered ATV and no deer tag in possession.
Conservation Officer John Velsvaag (Ely) checked deer hunters this past week. Hunting was slow and weather conditions were poor at the end of the week. Velsvaag checked on deer hunting complaints and checked a few trappers. He also received several calls on the wolf regulations and trespassing.
Lake Superior Marine Unit
Sergeant Keith Olson (Marine Unit) checked deer hunting camps mid-week. The success rate seems to have improved over last week. He worked a night detail with fellow district officers. Baiting complaints are still being called in and investigated. Olson dealt with some license issues, investigated a deer that had been harvested with some type of infected wounds from a previous encounter and worked an area for illegal ATV traffic during the restricted hours. He fielded calls on law questions, assisted a hunter with motor vehicle problems in a remote area and checked on several road kill permit requests.
Conservation Officer Matt Miller (Marine Unit) continued working deer season and the related issues. Baiting complaints continue to be worked with levels of sportsmanship appearing low this year due to all the baited stands. An expensive reminder has been given to some hunters that a baiting conviction now includes a revocation of deer hunting privileges. Commercial netters were checked on Lake Superior where there were heavy waves. Enforcement action was taken for deer and ATV violations.
Conservation Officer Troy Ter Meer (Marine Unit) did some Conservation Officer Academy instruction during the week and worked on paperwork from deer season. He had an ATV flee from him in West Duluth. He investigated a TIP complaint on waterfowl hunters and assisted area officers with deer cases. Enforcement action was taken for big game and ATV violations.

Police say Manchester man hid in closet as SWAT moved in
MANCHESTER - SWAT team members found a wanted man hiding in a third-floor closet when they raided a Maple Street apartment New Year's Eve, police said in a news release.
Jesus Fernandez, 26, of 479 Maple St., was arrested without further incident on warrants charging him with three counts of sale of a controlled drug.
Also arrested was Sheselle Galarza, 28, of 50 Jane St., on two counts of sale of a controlled drug.
The arrests were the result of a raid at 447 Maple St., the result of an investigation by the department's Special Investigations Unit.
Fernandez and Galarza were arraigned Wednesday morning in 9th Circuit Court, Manchester District Division. They could enter no pleas to the felony charges in Circuit Court, so probable cause hearings were set for Jan. 15.
Fernandez said in court that he does not live at the Maple Street address, telling Judge Gregory Michael that he lives at 221 Wilson St.
Bail was set at $20,000 cash/surety for Fernandez, with a hearing on the source of any funds offered for bail. Bail for Galarza is $10,000 cash/surety, also with a hearing on the source of bail funds.

Reviews of Valley View Retirement Community
Average Rating: based on 1 Review
I am a friend or relative of resident
Do not send your family member here if they have memory issues. The staff is not able to care for them. My family members laundry was not done, the room was filthy and never cleaned. The manager Stephanie is defensive and rude. The staff is not helpful or approachable. Overpriced and it is obvious that med techs are the primary care givers of your loved one. They do not have college degrees. Valley View mission statement should be changed to I just want your money and I don't care about your loved one. What a horrible experience for $3750. a month.

What is real-time bidding (RTB) and why is it important for marketers? We spoke to three execs in the display ad tech space - Mikko Kotila, Statsit CEO, Matt Harty, Accuen GM, and Cindy Deng, Turn MD - and made them define RTB as well as explain why marketers should consider this form of media trading.
Mikko Kotila, CEO at Statsit, uses the analogy of Wall Street's stock exchange to frame the current ad exchange environment.
He also outlines five factors to consider when moving into RTB.

With household debt levels rising dangerously high, a new policy paper issued 1 February 2012 shows that an integrated approach questioning current cultural developments and prioritizing social investment policies is crucial to ensure a more inclusive and debt free society. European household debt has been on the rise since the 1980s. In 2007, even before the start of the financial and economic crisis, household debt in the European Union had increased on average by near to 19% since 2001.
"Eurodiaconia members' experience confirms these figures. They have witnessed a constant increase in the demand for debt-counselling services for three consecutive years and expect the demand for these types of services to keep increasing in the future, as more and more people need to borrow to pay for daily living costs" says Heather Roy, Eurodiaconia' s Secretary General.
In reaction to this situation, Eurodiaconia has released a policy paper on household over indebtedness in the European Union, presenting twelve recommendations ranging from the need for a stricter monitoring and regulation of advertising, revolving credit and debt collection agencies, to reinforcing social protection through adequate minimum income along with both higher levels and a less complex social security mechanism that offers a higher level of protection.
This policy paper, based on Eurodiaconia' s members' experience, suggests that living under the strain of the financial crisis has become too difficult for families and single-parent households and that over indebtedness has become the symptom of a broader social crisis as more and more people are pushed to borrow money to pay for housing and daily living costs. Instead of the current non-inclusive developments, Eurodiaconia proposes an integrated approach questioning current cultural trends, and prioritizing social investment policies to ensure a more inclusive and debt free society.

John O'Brien, the author of Leaving Las Vegas, committed suicide in 1994 at the age of 33. Akashic Books is now publishing his novel, Better, from which this excerpt is adapted.
Double Felix is semireclined. From where I stand — perhaps ten feet behind him — I can hear the whine of his headphones, excess noise that even his ears cannot collect. True to form, he has the volume control of his tape player set too high, but I won't mention this to him; Double Felix is the sort of person who resents concern, or so he claims. Anyway, disturbing him is rarely a good idea, so I turn and walk from the room.
"I see you, William," I hear him yell after me. "I see your fat fucking face reflected in the window."
Rather than respond to that, I pull shut his door and continue down the hall. I should mention here that "your fat fucking face" is merely one of Double Felix's many terms of endearment. My face, as well as the rest of me, is angular, almost gaunt. I have the sort of face that one expects to be adorned with a modicum of gratuitous facial hair, perhaps an anemic goatee, or an adolescent mustache, though I do not and would never have either. I did once spend some time with a black glass marker and a mirror; the effect was unconvincing.
Passing the familiar array of six doors, two of which stand open, I arrive at the end of the hall where I exit to the deck. Here I will stay until morning — a relatively new habit of mine — feeling the airborne chill of the Pacific Ocean sweep over my body, linger in seductive spirals, and grow ever more to the point as it waits for sleep to take me. It is then, as I lie innocently, making stupid barks and gurgles in protest to my dreams, it is then that the wind will turn malicious and send its bite to my bones. I will awaken and shiver, clutch myself and curse. Though the door behind me is unlocked and a bed awaits my name, I will stay here and watch for the sky to lighten.
In the morning I will join Double Felix for vodka on his balcony. We will have our regular palaver, perhaps joined briefly by one of the female houseguests wearing one of Double Felix's shirts, or an outcall hooker clad in lace and wondering if Double Felix meant it when he asked her to move in. "Do you live here too?" she will ask of me, her eyes searching mine for either a clue or a warning sign. "What has Double Felix been telling you?" I will respond, trying to look mischievous. Seeing I want to sleep with her, Double Felix will then chuckle, and so give his blessing.
Our house — I mean his house, for we are all guests of Double Felix, myself the most tenacious — sits on a cliff in Los Angeles, overlooking the Pacific, just northwest of the city of Santa Monica. Most of the nearby roads are known as canyons, circuitous strips of black and yellow cut to deferentially follow nature's compelling leads, and I have yet to find a straight line that leads here, much less a shortest distance. It is my understanding that
Double Felix purchased this house some years ago. I would have sworn he built it himself, for it matches him and he is to a degree seemingly beyond coincidence; but perhaps that can be only a result of a chance purchase, as no man could possibly know himself that well. I can't say exactly why I find this house so appropriate for Double Felix, but I do know I feel very much an element in whatever it is he wrought here.
Very cold. Two thirty, it will get colder still. I have awakened with a rare — considering my gin intake lately — desire to urinate. If I go inside at this point, I will probably not be able to bring myself back out. This happened once before: inside for a leak, tempted and lost to my bed, inexplicable guilt for the whole day. No. At this late date — and it must truly be exactly that — I'd rather not risk it. Shivering, I get up to urinate on some weeds that lie on the other side of the railing. Small dribble hits the deck, a false alarm, bladder bluff. Water would be nice; I opt for more gin instead.
With the calender now firmly rooted in the ambivalence of autumn, sleeping on the deck is much more to the point. A few months ago, as I lay watching fireworks launched from passing yachts, it seemed a fun way to get a little attention, warm nights and pretty stars the only things on and above the horizon. It has since dug itself in, lies deeper, nearer its origin. Now I find I am here for reasons that I can no more control than I can understand.

NBA: Past and Present
Not Bread Alone was first called the Soup Company. It was started by the First Congregational Church of Amherst in 1983. Members of the church took turns preparing soup at home and brought it to the kitchen to serve. It started with just bread, and two pots of soup: one was vegetarian soup and the other one was non-vegetarian soup. Later the Church hired a coordinator to take charge of the program. It continued for several years until 1987 when financial problems forced it closed temporarily. A few months later, the Church asked Center for Human Development (CHD) to take over for management. In 1988, the soup kitchen reopened and was named Not Bread Alone.
Not Bread Alone serves free breakfast and lunch on Saturdays and Sundays in the dining room of the First Congregational Church of Amherst. It also serves meals on Thanksgiving and Christmas. In addition to serving meals, Not Bread Alone provides free groceries such as vegetables, fruits, baked goods, and canned food weekly. During growing season, we offer farm fresh organic and local vegetables. Homemade desserts are regularly made available to our guests. Overall speaking, Not Bread Alone emphasizes fresh and nutritious foods to populations who normally rely on processed or canned goods. With the abundant farm produce our guests receive in the summer and fall, it is important for them to learn how different fresh vegetables such as kale, collard greens, mustard greens, or napa can be prepared. Through the various dishes served at lunch, our guests learn and are encouraged to use fresh produce.
Our guests are mostly senior citizens, single-parent families, and single men and women. Many of them either live in subsidized housing, or are homeless and live in shelters. The racial composition seems to reflect that of the town of Amherst and the area: about one third is people of color. The nationalities include US citizens, Chinese, Koreans, Pakistanis, Polish, Mexicans etc. The average age is about 60 or up. The bleak job market has brought us some young college graduates this year. We are seeing some new families who have just recently immigrated to this country. In general, the breakdown by gender for male and female is 60/40.
Not Bread Alone does not set any eligibility requirement for guests. Anyone in need of a hot meal or free groceries is welcome to use the program. However, we do not see any abuse of our service. Our guests are mostly people with low income, and/or receive disability social security.
Our volunteers are as diverse at our guests. They are from many racial and cultural backgrounds. By word of mouth, and announcements we send to local churches and synagogues, we work with volunteers of all ages and abilities. Not Bread Alone relies greatly on volunteers to provide its service. Volunteers pick up donated produce and baked goods weekly from local stores such as Whole Foods Market, Atkins Farm, Henion Bakery, and Stop and Shop. We also have volunteers laundering tablecloths and dish towels. A gentleman comes to set the table whenever Not Bread Alone is open. We work with nearly 1,000 volunteers cooking in the kitchen to prepare breakfast and lunch. These volunteers are from local public schools/ colleges, or are students from UMass. Local faith communities are the backbone of the meal program. They not only provide needed funds, they also supply reliable volunteers who come regularly. Our strong relationship with these churches such as Grace Church, Jewish Community of Amherst, First Congregational Church of Leverett and many others gives Not Bread Alone great stability in providing its meal service.
Feeding the hungry and homeless is a basic need for our community to address. Not Bread Alone provides meals on weekends. Its schedule complements that of the Amherst Survival Center, which serves lunch during the week. Not Bread Alone provides a comfortable and safe setting for all to dine and socialize together. It provides more than a meal. It is a place for all to gather and be in the company of one another.

When rogues become the FoTM either rogues will get nerfed or warriors / other callings will get buffed. It's a never ending cycle of balance.
Interpreting the patch notes about wanting rogues = warriors in terms of pvp threat to mean warriors will be garbage is kinda funny.

Rogues need their day in the sun. I wouldn't even feel too badly if they had a ParaChamp/1.2 Pyro patch for a few weeks. They've had to bend over and just take it on so many fronts (or should I say...backs hehehe)

roque OP
buff warriors
Meh I don't like to see Warrior negativity, but all these little things Trion is doing as a whole can add up to quite a bit. Things are not looking good if they continue this way.
As far as rogues are concerned, I want them to be balanced, but I also feel that the average rogue is nowhere near as good or knowledgeable as they should be. I know some AMAZING rogues and I know what the rogue class is capable of from seeing them in action. Balancing around a mass of sheeple that refuse to learn to play their class well somehow doesn't seem proper. We saw it with mages who complained to have trouble and suddenly they were so powerful they had to be nerfed, all in the same month. Mages continue to complain yet recent videos show them fighting entire groups off, even in a supposedly "nerfed" state.
Clerics remain strangely......... quiet ;)

You mispelled warrior at the beginning of the sentence. Seriously, rogues have been almost a joke in WFs and really only have a couple of viable PvE specs. Trion gives us a buff to make up for it and all the warriors rage quit? There isn't a class in the game that hasn't complained about warriors, with your 1-2 button macros that explode everything within a mile while flying under the nerf radar. You're all quitting because the playing field is evened out, perhaps you need to go play Diablo in God Mode instead, that will make you feel cool.
have you all seen the new rogue heal debuffs? it makes LW look underpowered. In addition to buffed damage every rogue in pvp will be healing themselves quite a bit.

The artist formerly known as Daroof
This, with what im reading, warriors will be the only class without any reliable self-heals, and sins will get even more rediculous if slipaway stays as is. Oh and the new healdebuff for rouges sounds boarderline rediculous (spread it by aoe and lol as you have half the other teams healing)
I thought I read somewhere that fan out didn't AoE apply the heal debuff, it was only to the single target. It's not a completely "reliable" heal, and it shouldn't affect warrior vs. rogue fights much. The nightblade heal feels needed though to remain even closely competative vs. a warrior in a toe to toe fight (this is people with 44+ in NB, no slip aways for them). Last time I fought a p8 warrior on my p8 NB/BD I used 4 different 2-minute CD's and had him to 50% before I died--there was no hope or any chance of RNG gods letting me even come CLOSE to winning that fight with the tools currently available to a 44nb/22bd.
DK of The Fast and the Fairyous: Tokyo Rift
Have to realize they are buffing damage along with this new debuff (which I havent seen anything on making it non-aoe) and that it does affect rouge vs war due to trinket and essence proccs, but its more the wf/group pvp aspect im looking at. Will have to see though (if its single target only now, it might do ok) but as a defensive leaning player (I like average defence/average damage type builds) I would really like some defensive cooldowns in my builds other than 10 min full heal and 30 sec 1 miss.
They're not buffing rogues, they're nerfing bloodthirsty procs.
From a PvE point of view, I really hope the Rogue buffs give me a reason to dust off my Rogue. I keep up with Rogue chatter and new builds that people come up with, but I just don't like to play my Rogue. I like melee classes and as far as Rogue spec options go right now, I can't stand Sabdancer, Melee Ranger is dumb (and I don't like pets) and everything else doesn't really compare dps-wise. The only other melee options are lower dps specs involving sin/bd/nb which don't come close to the other 2 specs I just mentioned.
I gave up on PvP on this game a long time ago, so I have no input for that area of the game, but as far as PvE goes, I really would like some actual "normal" specs. To me Sabdancer is not "normal" and not what you would expect as a rogue spec. It is a saboteur relying on Deadly Dance with a funky rotation to pull top rogue dps. Melee Ranger is not what most people would consider to be a "normal" rogue spec either. It's a melee spec with a pet that you have to go in and out of melee range to play...
I first started Rift as a Rogue and almost quit playing Rift because of it. I found all the melee souls of Rogue to be amazing...but their damage was not amazing in comparison to current fotm rogue specs or to other classes unless you're a really good player (and I am). I just couldn't stand the fotm specs we had/have to choose from. I even tried out ranged and didn't like it, so I turned to Warrior and never looked back. Hopefully with this next patch I can finally look back, play my rogue again and give me something to do besides play my warrior that is already an end-game raider.

Old Mass Grave Found On Main Line
A long-time mystery is solved on the Main Line, as historians at Immaculata University, with the help of a Penn archeologist, have unearthed a mass grave that dates back to the 1830's.
Legend has it that 57 Irish workers building a railroad got cholera, and were dumped in what's now called "Duffy's Cut", about a mile from Immaculata. That area is now covered with private homes, and given suburban sprawl for decades. It's remarkable construction left the area untouched, until now.

So sad to see another CHILD, who killed his parent have to be on trial!! I know he's a murderer to all with no heart, but the fact remains, he's still a child!! Have some compassion in this world for the youth. No one knows why this happened, but it breaks my heart to know that a child felt that this was his only answer. Prayers for everyone involved, because in the end there are NO winners here!!

By Dan Waters, Chicago Tribune reporter

At a recent screening of the Quentin Tarantino film "Django Unchained" at the Fremont Public Library in Mundelein, Becky Ingram, assistant director of librarian services, said one older woman left the showing and waited outside for her husband because of the violent nature of the film.
But others, she said, came out raving about how the film was one of their favorite of the year. And even though the movie has plenty of violence and swearing, Ingram said library-goers appreciate the fact that this and other R-rated films are made available for them.
"We seem to have a pretty relaxed community," she said.
When the library first started offering movie screenings, R-rated movies weren't included, Ingram said. But she pointed to movies like "Schindler's List"—and others that won Academy Awards—as changing the library's policy.
"'The Hurt Locker' was a perfect example," she said. "We ended up having to turn people away when they showed up for that movie. We decided that when they are of that high acclaim, and enough people want to see it, we're not going to let the R rating prevent us from showing that movie."
She said while it's possible a 16-year-old has shown up for one of these screenings, the library requires kids be accompanied by a parent or guardian to attend events that are intended for adults.
"Even if it's just a how-to-knit class for adults, the minor would need an adult with them," she said.
And while there isn't necessarily a hard line drawn as to how much is too much when it comes to adult content, the library doesn't offer anything particularly racy, such as pornography.
"Everyone knows where you kind of draw that line, I guess," she said.
But that doesn't mean the library would stop a teenager from checking out an album with explicit lyrics, even if he or she is under 18.
To get a library card, the applicant must be 18, with parents able to get cards for their kids, she said. There are no options to place parental-control restrictions on the cards.
"We trust that the parents have given the child the card," she said. "We leave it up to the parents to monitor what their children are checking out."
Fremont Public Library has two floors, with a kids' section downstairs and an adult section upstairs, Ingram said. The downstairs computers have restrictions on what kinds of sites can be viewed. Upstairs, however, nothing is blocked.
Unless what the patron is viewing is illegal, she said, library staff will just tell them to leave a site if they deem it inappropriate. There have never been any issues, she said.

What's Next
Between traditional news channels, blogs, and social media, it can be hard to keep up with what's making waves in the field of sustainable development. In this roundup we aim to cut through the noise with a handful of highlights that have caught our eye.
Improving Transparency to Tackle Corruption
Transparency International's latest report, Transparency in Corporate Reporting: Assessing Emerging Market Multinationals, evaluates the reporting practices of 100 companies in emerging economies including China, India and Brazil. The companies assessed in the study achieved an average score of 46% in reporting on their anti-corruption programmes with Chinese companies achieving the lowest scores….
Transparency on the rise
Corporate transparency is a wide and complex terrain, including everything from legally required disclosures to employee tweets, much of it having nothing to do with sustainability. However, an increasing number of transparency initiatives are focused on social and environmental outcomes, from the rise in sustainability reporting over the last twenty years, to more recent bursts of open innovation. This increase in transparency represents a tremendous opportunity for business, the environment, and society at large if six key elements are done right.
Transparency spreads far beyond reporting
With the generation and capture of ever-larger streams of data, many sustainability professionals are asking, "What is the future of reporting?" Given the pace and nature of the changes afoot, that might simply be the wrong question for those working to drive the sustainability agenda forward.
… -
The promise of business-model innovation has long captivated the sustainability field, generating plenty of hype. But all the talk has yet to yield many real business-model changes.
You might not know it to hear companies talk. Any business change can end up being classified as "business model innovation". In a BCG and MIT survey of executives and managers earlier this year, nearly half of the respondents said their companies had changed their business models as a result of sustainability opportunities. However, the majority of innovations we see involve changes in companies' processes and/or products, not underlying business models….
Between traditional news channels, blogs, and social media, it can be hard to keep up with what's making waves in the field of sustainable development. In this roundup we aim to cut through the noise with a handful of highlights that have caught our eye.
Traceability in Food and Apparel Sectors
Two sectors recently tainted by supply chain scandals–apparel and food–are also witnessing a surge in traceability and transparency in an effort to communicate more openly and transparently with stakeholders.The emergence of companies that are promoting traceability and transparency in the apparel supply chain through digital platforms, including Everlane, Honest-By, and SumAll, has been complemented by the newly launched Zady, an online shopping portal that uses icons to convey to consumers if a garment is locally sourced, made from high-quality raw materials, or environmentally conscious. While the co-founders research the practices of every brand included on the site and have visited some factories, in many cases they rely on the brands to disclose the information, requiring owners to sign contracts verifying the authenticity of their claims about sourcing and production. …
Earth Day 2013 came and went in April with the usual fanfare of green festivals, volunteer programs, company campaigns and reflections on the question, "How are we doing, anyway?" On this last point, the answer this year seemed to be a somewhat lukewarm, "Well…we've been better."
Certainly, we see a steady stream of what might be considered discouraging news. A sampling from just last month included a pessimistic outlook in Jeremy Grantham's Q1 letter to investors, updates on the factory collapse in Bangladesh, new data on honey bee colony collapse, spiraling loss of Arctic summer sea ice, and global food shortages. To be fair, just as surely there are hopeful stories and a lot of good work being done. But the point is that those of us working in the sustainability realm, or frankly anyone taking a systems view on global topics, must grapple with some daunting issues that easily could lead to a doom-and-gloom perspective.Is the solution to buck up, put on a happy face and simply forge ahead? The answer seems to be yes — and no. …
I had occasion this week to be in San Diego for Sustainable Brands 2013, where I offered opening remarks on the first full day of the conference, June 04. Conclusions from Changing Tack, the final output of The Regeneration Roadmap, were top of mind as I did so.
Sustainable Brands' theme this year was "From Revolution to Renaissance." I love the implications behind the words. To me, it suggests that we have broken through into a creative, hyper-productive phase of sustainable development progress and the role brands will play. But, as in the title above, I put the theme to the conference audience as a question – not to query where we are going, but to allow us to step back and look at where we are on the journey, and to consider how we can chart a path forward. And, based on Changing Tack's conclusions, I suggested that we need to incite still far more people toward revolution at the same time as we push forward the renaissance….
As the Guardian's Jo Confino wrote at the close of the Rio+20 Conference in June 2012, "the most often used phrases in the many meetings I attended [were] the need to create 'coalitions of the willing' and a recognition that 'all issues are inter-connected' and cannot be viewed in silos."
Collaboration is widely acknowledged as vital if we are to address global challenges at the scale and speed we need, but the current rhetoric often fails to acknowledge how hard it is to …
"How might our businesses serve our humanity, and how might our humanity serve our businesses?" (Raphael Bemporad, BBMG speaking at Sustainable Brands, London)
Sustainable Brands finally came to London, in November, a long way from its most recent home in balmy San Diego. The organisers may not have brought us sunshine but the event did bring a strong call for more humanity, heart, purpose, bravery and honesty in brands and business….
At the risk of showing my age, when I was very young I was fascinated by the man that passed by our house every other week with his horse and cart letting out the cry of "any old iron!" He was a rag and bone man and one of the last of a dying breed that made their living collecting anything that people wanted to get rid of – metal or not. "Put it outside for the rag and bone man" was a familiar refrain in our house.
The rag and bone trade came to my mind towards the end of the first Global Sharing Day, another step forward in the emergence of the "sharing economy". …
The phrase "In praise of Barclays", used during this, of all weeks, and with Wimbledon coming to a conclusion, surely elicits only one response: "You cannot be serious!!" Well, no, not exactly serious. In fact, most definitely not serious, because the company's performance has been nothing short of woeful at best and disastrous at worst. So, why the headline?
I will remodel it: "In praise of Barclays individuals that I know have worked patiently and diligently for over a decade or more to drive change against all the odds, and in praise of the tens of thousands of frontline Barclays staff who are being vilified daily by the media. They have surely felt …
Recently returning from a trip to Guangzhou to visit my grandmother, I found it remarkable how quickly the city had changed from when I was a little girl visiting for the first time, almost 25 years ago. I recall farmer's fields with bumpy dirt roads that now, have magically transformed into eight lane highways. Small alleyways of hutong houses have been replaced by shiny new office bulidings and condominiums. Rickety bicycles carrying 10 times their weight? They've turned into luxury SUVs. Each time I go back, it is not …
Sustainability labels should focus more on actual company performance
When we talk about the "eco-label model" we're really talking about a combination of three things.
First, standards – a set of requirements, usually taking a consensus-based approach. Second, certifications – providing assurance of conformity against this standard. And, third, the eco-labels themselves – on-pack marks that indicate conformance with the standard.
This model came into being over…
1. Transitions
In a year that saw an Arab Spring take hold and unseat entrenched autocrats in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya (TBD on Yemen and Syria), the withdrawal of the last American troops from Iraq, a European Union on the brink of transformative change (and potential collapse), a titan of technological (and economic) innovation pass away, and the growing acknowledgement (in the form of the Occupy protests), that the entanglement of the American political and financial system is a Faustian bargain that must be actively fought and protested against, the theme of transition feels all too apt.
So too in the sustainability field, where in a world of seven billion inhabitants and growing, the five most urgent issues on the sustainability agenda are all perceived less urgently than they were in 2009.
I was in Austin last week for a Sustainable Life Media (SLM) double-header. First a meeting of the Sustainable Brands Advisory Board, then the SLM Corporate Members meeting.
Hosted with aplomb by Dell, sessions included a tour of the Dell Social Media Command Center (a fascinating, real-time window into what everyone, everywhere is saying about their Dell experience), and an inspiring visit to the new LEED Gold certified offices of Lance Armstrong's LIVESTRONG Foundation, with both proving there is more going on in Austin than music, football and great Tex-Mex like Guero's (though those are fine too, with Guero's servings proving again that everything is bigger in Texas).
For everything packed into the two days, I left thinking about a presentation by Simon Mainwaring, the best-selling author of We First …
Sustainable consumption has been high on our agenda in recent months. Most recently, our latest report Signed, Sealed… Delivered? highlights the diminishing returns from sustainability labels and calls for sustainability to be 'built-in' rather than 'bolt-on' (or, in this case, labelled-on) to consumer brands.
So with my antennae sensitised for unsustainable consumption, I was stunned to flick through the Financial Times' Weekend magazine Christmas Unwrapped and read endless exhortation of excessive consumption…
"Ideate. Renovate. Validate. Kill." These were the four rapid-fire imperatives imparted by Privahini Bradoo, CEO and Co-Founder of BioMine, at last month's GreenBiz Innovation Forum in San Francisco. The first three received nods from the audience as straight-forward principles of innovation, but the fourth caused the audience to stir. Kill – not just weeding out bad ideas but rather killing good ones – is a principle Bradoo attributed to Steve Jobs, who said that good ideas were the greatest roadblocks to coming up with great ones.
This has stuck with me as I've continued to follow the disruption now playing out in the food sector. Some of the most iconic food companies…
As SustainAbility's new report, Signed, Sealed… Delivered?, explains, certification marks can help build trust in brands and influence consumer behaviour. But they are not universally successful, for all people, in all circumstances. What alternative approaches can be usefully employed? Business in the Community's Simon Lee explains the findings from their recent report, Influencing Consumer Behaviour – A Guide for Sustainable Marketing.
Why aren't people acting?
Trust marks undeniably provide a quick, easy method to communicate a company or product's sustainability credentials to consumers. Yet…
I spent the week before last at the annual BSR conference, held in San Francisco, CA.
