The University of West Florida on Tuesday announced that Argonauts cross country head coach John Bergin will resign at the end of the season, his fifth with UWF.
"I am thankful for the support and resources provided by (the University of West Florida) administration to allow myself and our student-athletes a great chance to be successful," Bergen said. "This program will continue to flourish in the future, and I am proud to have been a part of it."
In his time as head coach, Bergen was named Gulf South Conference Women's Coach of the Year in 2011 and 2012. Bergen led the UWF women's cross country team to the program's first NCAA national championship appearance in 2011 and again in 2012. The two-time conference coach of the year also led the Argonaut women's cross country team to back-to-back Gulf South Conference championships.
During Bergen's tenure, 24 student-athletes have earned All-GSC honors while five received All-GSC Academic Honors. Bergen coached two GSC freshmen of the year award winners (Seth Rosanina, Kelley Bahn) in his tenure as head coach and saw the UWF women's cross country honored by the U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches' Association with all-academic team honors in 2010.
When named cross country coach in 2008, Bergen was no stranger to the UWF Field House, as he spent six years as an assistant professor of exercise science in the Health, Leisure and Exercise Science Department, which was housed for four of his years in the UWF Field House. Bergen took over as the interim sports information director, a position that he held until taking over the cross country coaching position.

These were wonderful and were a breeze to use.
Used this product to take care of pick scratches on an Ernie Ball Music Man Silhouette and it did not live up to my expectations. Wet sanding all the way up to 12000 grit and i was still left with a hazy looking swirl. Eventually had to use a rubbing compound and a buffing arbour to take care of it. It's a good product but it shouldn't have taken me all that time to get the guitar sorted.
These things rule. You can use them for anything and it brings them up to a really nice shine with minimal effort. They are great for frets! Highly recommend these!
I am on my second set of these , as I always like to have 2 of everything if possible. Very easy to use. You dont even have to mask your fretboard if you are careful with the larger grits. And not at all with the superfine grits ! Only problem i find is I don't have a good method to clean them. They do pick up a lot of tiny particles and I have still yet to clean them well. StewMac, please include a method to clean them up ! Excellent product !!
The title says it all
I purchased 2 sets and they work great for cleaning up pick scratched. Easy to use and a very effective solution for various surfaces.
After using all the fret erasers then move to these wow... what a shine. Buy these. Forget the old sand paper and steel wool mess
These pads make your frets look like jewelry.
Got a set of these for a few different uses. They really did a great job in all of them. I used them for polishing up binding, finish, & frets, and they exceeded my expectations, especially at the very reasonable cost of a whole set.
Great for finishing and they start at a lower grit as opposed to other suppliers who start at 2400 grit. Price is right.

Slim Dusty Day
13 June 2012 , 10:39 AM by Wayne Shearman
What a pleasure it was to play a stack of songs from Slim this morning.
The 13th of June is the birth date of Slim Dusty and I enjoyed tracking down and sharing a few of the "lesser known" songs from the Australian King of Country Music.
The songs I played included "Good old country style", "The mad cook", "Lawson's Ghost", "Gates" and "Joe, don't let the music kill you".
In the middle of it all, it seemed only fitting to share "Family Reunion" with Joy McKean and the family.
Attached is a photo that takes pride of place on my work desk, Joy with Old Purple and me. The photo taken at Tamworth 2012.

Endoscopic carpal tunnel repair
Carpal tunnel release surgery involves cutting the carpal ligament to make more space for the nerves and tendons in the carpal tunnel. Carpal tunnel surgery can usually be done on a day case basis. The operation may be done using an endoscope, a thin flexible telescope that is inserted into a small cut in the wrist. Images are transmitted to a screen, allowing the surgeon to see inside the wrist. In a more traditional, open operation, a longer cut is made in the palm of the hand. The endoscopic repair leaves a smaller scar, and usually allows people to get back to their usual activities more quickly. However, there may be a slightly higher risk of nerve damage with endoscopic carpal tunnel surgery.

Minnesota Voters Alliance is a 501(c)(4)
organization. Your contributions are appreciated
but not tax deductible.
A court hearing date has been set for Friday, December 13th at 9:30AM in courtroom 1620, by Judge John Guthmann. Ramsey County District Court, 15 W. Kellogg Blvd.
This case challenges the authority of the Secretary of State to install online voter registration without legislative approval.
Online voter registration done without legislative approval
November 4, 2013
Today, the Minnesota Voters Alliance, Minnesota Majority, and state representatives Steve Drazkowski, Mary Franson, Jim Newberger, and Ernie Leidiger filed suit in Ramsey County District Court challenging Minnesota Secretary of State Mark Ritchie's attempts to install online voter registration without legislative approval.
The Minnesota Voters Alliance (MVA) and Minnesota Majority will hold a joint press conference at 10:00 a.m. Monday, November 4, 2013, Room 181 State Office Building, 100 Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, St. Paul, MN 55155.
The purpose of the press conference is to describe the lawsuit challenging the Minnesota Secretary of State's authority to install online voter registration without legislative approval.
Anoka-Hennepin School District lawsuit
On November 2, 2012, we filed a complaint with the Office of Administrative Hearings (OAH) charging the Anoka-Hennepin School District with disseminating false statements and using taxpayer funds for political purposes with regard to school levy questions on the November, 2011, ballot.
On July 1, 2013, we filed our appeal brief to the MN Court of Appeals in our case against the Anoka Hennepin School District which claims that the District used taxpayer funds to promote their ballot levy in 2011.
Recent revelations showing how the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has targeted conservative groups for the past three years comprise only the first part of the story. Another part is how the IRS has favored liberal organizations. But the full story must include a discussion of what might be done to reduce the opportunity for such bias. We therefore have some suggestions for preventing these types of abuses by the IRS.
Just a short note to tell you that we are very satisfied with the oral arguments heard by the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals last Wednesday, May 15, 2013 in front of a standing-room only crowd.

It has been a bit of time since I have updated my BLOG so I thought I would give a few highlights:
Linda and I took Stormie back to Hot Springs and spent the weekend with Linda's sister, Judy. We had an awesome time, enjoyed seeing Judy, Anet, and Niles. Stormie had a great two weeks with Linda and I and was a great joy to have around. Chloe and Alec went to Hot Springs with us and had a blast at the Mid-America Science Museum. The museum alone was worth the trip! Alec had a blast building, what I think, would be his dream house!
Linda has fallen in love with our new carpet and living room! That made a massive change in how our house looks!
Michael and Felicia are in their last two weeks in Tulsa. They are moving to Houston, where Felicia will be going to college. Michael will probably continue working with WalMart as a Pharmacy Tech. He is loving this job and we hope to see them a few more times before they make their way to Houston.
Speaking of jobs, Matthew will be back at EMSA soon! He completed his coursework for Paramedic and is certified now. He will be starting the new Academy next week! Congratulations, Matthew.
Jose' is home now and is getting his life back on track. We missed Jose' and are praying for his success.
My former Father-In-Law, Lehman Jones, was hospitalized and is undergoing treatment and testing. Lehman is 84 and is need of prayers. Lehman and Patti were long time parishioners of St. Thomas More Catholic Church and now attend St. Pius X. My friend, Fr. Boniface, O.S.B. has graciously offered Masses for his healing, for which I, Lehman and Patti are very grateful. Lehman taught at Tulsa Community College up until the Summer term. I pray that he will regain his health sufficiently to return to the classroom.
Drew should be returning to St. Gregory's soon as a Proctor in the Honor's Hall.

Thanks to Molecular Nutrition for giving me the opportunity to try their product out and log it. I'll be as comprehensive as I can.
About me;
6'2", 295
I'm a powerlifter who (allegedly) competes in the 275 class. Currently I am training for a meet in Dubuque, IA on July 21 of this year. I just reset my training protocol, and I am using Brandon Lilly's Cube Method. I ran this for 3 weeks prior to the reset, and I am DAMN happy with it.
Supplements-not much of a supp guy; I use SuperCissus, Orange Triad, a multi and protein powder. That's pretty much it, so the addition of this is this alone. I won't add or change supp protocol during my test drive.
Diet-I've enlisted the help of Shelby Starnes, so I won't post any diet info or details, since that's how he makes his living. Training sessions to follow. I usually upload vids as well, and I am taking composition pics as I go, so I may throw those in as well....

Before Pencil Touches Paper: Creativity-based Strategies to get K-6 Struggling Students Ready to Write This three-session workshop is offered by Honolulu Theatre for Youth with partial funding from the Hawai'i State Foundation on Culture and the Arts through the National Endowment for the Arts and appropriations by the State Legislature. Professional development for teachers is one of the HSFCA Arts Education Program's major initiatives.
Dates: Saturdays, January 26, February 23, and March 30, 2013 from
Time: 9:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.
Location: Office of Curriculum Instruction and Student Services, 22nd Avenue, Honolulu.
Instructors Paul Wood and Daniel A. Kelin, II.
Registration fee: $150
Teachers will learn creative approaches to engage students in developing ideas into stories in advance of putting pencil to paper. Teachers will understand how to guide students to play with words and images, to trust imaginative impulses and to visualize character experiences in order to verbally and collaboratively shape ideas into individualized stories. Teachers will develop skills in engaging students kinesthetically, emotionally, and intellectually, encouraging them to personally invest in story-making to increase their understanding of story structure and creative expression. The processes demonstrated in this course are especially geared towards students who struggle with basic writing skills which impede their ability to express themselves.
Teachers can register for the course on the PDE3 website (https://pde3.k12.hi.us/). For questions or more information call the Education Department at Honolulu Theatre for Youth at 839-9885, ext. 704 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Why can't you just cast it on yourself then run to the middle of the creep wave, which would be even better for killing moving creeps?
The very problem of having the nuke being only targetable on an enemy is that it's completely out of your control how that damage will be distributed - and therefore easily countered.
Geo's my most played, and honestly I only have one qualm with him currently: his level 1 ult costs WAY too much mana. If it got dropped to 100 or 150 he'd be a much stronger hero. Right at level 6 if you go 1131, and built mana items, you just don't have enough mana to pull off your 4 ability combo, and seeing as how your ult is the most likely to miss, that's usually the one I skip out on casting.
As is, I don't grab ult until level 8 when I have a power supply and a grave amulet to support the massive mana costs, going for 2140 as my level 7 skill build.
He's also got some interesting bugs, like being able to burrow out of Glacius's stun, that make him pretty impossible to kill once you get him down.
I do love how impossible it is to escape the hero, between a massive blink/stun, Quicksand giving vision, and Earth's Grasp showing through the fog. I also love how rewarding he feels when you get your ult off.
I'm at 66% win rate in both NM(1650) and CM(1710) with him with 41 games played, but both of those are skewed down from the early period when I was still learning him and skilling him wrong (skipping Earth's Grasp). In my past 10 games of Geo, I've won 8 of them.
To the Earth's Grasp naysayers, try using it again. With the radius buff so that you need 360 MS to escape it, for the first 10 minutes of the game it's a reliable 400 point nuke with no followup. Later in the game you just need to combo it with Quicksand and you still get 360-400 damage out of it.

Geo doesn't fit into all line-ups, but pair him with a mobile carry and another aoe stun and he is a solid pick.
If I was to suggest a buff it would be an increase on the cast range of Quicksand as it will allow him to set up ganks and chase down enemies more effectively, and in doing so synergise with his other abilities.
I played a few more games tonight, and a few of points seemed less valid and some were made even more clear
Earth's Grasp is actually pretty cool if you go dig/eg/eg/dig/eg/ult/eg
works great for getting kills
I will max it from now on
However, something that was made more obvious (that I had mentioned before) was his terrible survivability.
I literally am a sacrificial pawn if I have to initiate for my team early-mid game. Unless it is a horribly one sided gank not near an enemy tower, there is a good chance I'll die. The stun on dig is only 1.5 seconds, and if you are with a hero(s) who don't have a follow up, odds are good the first person the enemies will focus down is you.
He needs some bulk, or more time to make a get away.
Well generally speaking, anyone who does not follow up on the initiator, assuming the initiator isn't a moron, are probably bad. That or there was some very poor communication occurring.
Not saying that you're wrong, just noting most initiators will die on their initiation if they get no follow up.
geo is a bad magmus.
nuff said.
http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/sh...d.php?t=246051 My workshop (currently 25 models)
I sort of disagree with that statement with a buffed Earth Grasp, since it fundamentally shifts his playstyle away from the mobile ganker/initiator piece and puts it more squarely into the realms of GTFO my lane while I spam you. It means he has a mechanism by which he can exploit early farm to fist a lane.
Having said this, I still don't think he's particularly strong, because he still has to get a farm lead over his lane to do it.
From here, the only change I want to see off the bat is Grasp targettable on allies, which opens the possibility of him being used a little bit like Dark Seer as a trade off laner (suicide solo). I always thought this ability should have had that anyway, and was surprised to find it didn't.
I don't think Grasp can be buffed much more than that without becoming broken, and I can't see buffs to Quicksand or Ult (the other abilities which are underwhelming) doing much to get around his laning phase, which remains mediocre. With this in mind, I think either of them could stand to be buffed, so long as it's in a creative way (linger time on Quicksand is another obvious place to look, or a rethink on the cast range of Crystal Field to start to bring it into the realms of some of the other disruptive AOE teamfighting ults like Black Hole, Release the Kraken, Kelp Field, Epicenter, Reign of Chaos and Echoslam).
At the moment, he remains a very forgettable hero, despite mostly having a desirable concept.
I feel he's occupying an awkward place between Magmus and HB, and it's an unhappy marriage at present. The manacosts are good (harks back to the olden days when heroes had to pay for capability), the concept is basically sound, but the execution hangs him out to dry against his competitors.
I still stick with my stance on him needing more beef. The biggest reason I don't pick him in games all the time is because he is a frail melee hero.
That and teams I get are always under the assumption that he is a terrible hero. I do fine with him in most of my games, and my teams (and opponents) are usually surprised at how good he can be in the hands of someone who doesn't underestimate his abilities.
If I went into a lane with more hp (like 570+) at the start (assuming no +stat items), I would feel a lot better about geo.
I understand blacksmith needs the tankiness a bit more because he does not have an aoe stun or escape, but using geos stun as an initiate (like I had said before) leaves you pretty exposed
In regards to the guy commenting about bad team/bad initiate/no communication, I mean those things do play a part in some of my games (I am not perfect), but even on a planned gank, once you land that stun, you still want to put down a well placed ult (which takes more than a second to think about) and land quicksand/earths grasp, depending on what the situation calls for.
And after that then what? Assume the other team had a clutch blinking jereziah (hypothetical, but you get the point) with a barrier idol. 3 or 4 of them are still up, and your **** is on CD.
You can like, melee or just wait until more cd's are up. The thing is, quicksand and earths grasp are a little bit on the longer scale. Again, being a weak melee with very little base beef stats puts him in a bad situation.
I just keep mulling over his survivability more than anything.
i am only 1600mmr, but played Geo in hundreds of games (50% Geo with this acc). I have a totally new approach to this. I think he suffers from something else, than stats etc...
His slow, Qicksand, does no damage.
Unlike Martyrs slow, unlike Revanant's slow, unlike Bombadier's slow, unlike blacksmith's slow, and so on.
That's why, you wont get assist gold if a teammate kills the enemy hero you just slowed. This has a huge impact especially for a ganker/roamer. I payed games, where I had a great presence, but of course left all kills to the carrys, and did not get much assists in return. We have to keep in mind, that Geomancer is melee. So just autoattacking once to be able to participate is not always an option. Just with giving Geo's slow, Quicksand, a bit of damge to make him trigger the assist, would have a great impact on him as it is one of the main sources a ganker/roamer gets income from.
The Best
This guy definately needs some love, might be just in the numbers.
the problem with geo is that his design is a ****ing roller-coaster. all spells are jumping into extremes.
-dig is 50/50 spell, either hit or miss, and if you miss you are totally screwed. you didnt stun, you didnt do any damage and now you'll most likely die because u dont have escape mech. i'd like homing system being implemented there (being able to slightly alter dig path) or dig speed buffed.
-quicksand is useless unless leveled, and without damage from grasp and dig geo is worthless so you cant have your only slow before lvl 14.
-earth grasp is retardedly strong early game, especially if geo is mid, however boots **** him up completely mid game which is dumb. need to buff ms limit to 385 so magebane with steams cant outrun it. only ghost marchers should be able to do so.
-ultimate is so easy to avoid that is not even fun. and if it hits, its most likely only 1 person. aoe is pathetic.
http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/sh...d.php?t=246051 My workshop (currently 25 models)
Increase his stun duration to 1.75 seconds, and the AOE of his natures grasp slightly.
Geo has a good concept, but with current numbers he is basically a bad Magmus.
Dig seems solid, works as a good stun or escape, is balanced by the linear movement. Quicksand is ok if you plan to gank aggressively and need additional slow, also helps at hitting both ultimate and Earth's Grasp at further point in the game.
Earth's Grasp is fine with recent changes.
But I think the ultimate is a bit underwhelming right now. The concept is good, additional AoE damage and stun for long cast time, but the damage and stun duration isn't anything phenomenal.
Some kind of buff to ultimate might do the trick. It already has long cooldown and cast time, so it needs either ridiculous range, stun type/duration or damage.

Product Details
A perennial favorite for summertime—seersucker. Originally worn because the weight and puckering of the fabric kept it airy and off the skin, over the years it has become a gentleman's summer staple. Ready for a change, our designers came up with this non-traditional navy on navy seersucker stripe shirt (which makes it a little easier to wear, if you ask us) in a slim cut. This is the perfect way to keep up the tradition of summer style with a twist all your own.

Here is another sample preview sheet on the CD but this one is showing some of the png files. The png files mean that they are cut out around the edges, in the center of frames etc, so they work great to easily layer embellishments, lay frames over photos, etc. If you don't do any digital you can still print images and use them.
DT Member Pam Hooten created a couple of great samples, doing one in a stylish sewing theme tag by shrinking this 12 x 12" paper and another 12 x 12 " with a sewing quote.
Pam also used a Tim Holtz Dress Form before she saw these 2 cute last minute Dress Templates that will be on the CD. They will be fun to dress up with pattern papers, ribbon belts and jewel buckles. Plus, they will fit in with the shoe and purse templates!
Here's a pretty Christmas card DT Member Jan Hennings created by shrinking an image on the CD and using 1 of the papers. She added a Tattered Angels Frame she covered with glitter snow
DT Member Tammy Roberts made this pretty standing teapot card pictured small on the template sheet below. You can see it better HERE on her blog and see how she cut butterflies from one of the papers on the CD and added them.

You know, I feel like starting a thread where all we do is discuss the PC brands we like/hate . I'll start... My favorite brands are Arctic Cooling for making such great and easy to use cooling products, Mushkin for making 1337 RAM, Western Digital, ASRock, AMD, and Gigabyte for making reliable (but not bullet proof) hardware, and Thermaltake for making good products and power supplies. My least favorite brands are Foxconn for using sweatshop labor (supposedly), Jetway for shipping video cards with dead memory, and Antec for making a squeling PSU that killed a gig of memory and a motherboard (that cost serious money to replace, now I have to buy a new power supply ><).
AMD for Kick-Ass Processors GeIL for great memory (don't get me wrond here Mushkin/Ketxxx, haven't tried you yet...) DFI for making great overclocking motherboards Wester Digital for great hard drives Thermaltake for the Big Typhoon Zalman for great VGA/CPU coolers Hey Zek, Jetway makes (a) great motherboard. Mostly/only the 939GT4-SLI. Besides that, yeah....go and hate them. Check your PM.
1. AMD. For their kick ass overclocking ability 2. Antec. For their rock solid PS 3. ATI. For the best damn video cards ever made 4. Corsair. For a good solid ram at a decent price.
Come to think of it, Antec is generally good, I probably just got a bad model (one with pages upon pages of reviews complaining about PSU squealing...for future reference that is NOT normal on ANY power supply guys). ATI is an opinion thing, for example, Nvidia usually has the most eye candy , and ATI usually has the most realism. And yes Corsair/Mushkin/GEIL all belong in the group of RAM manufacterers that have 1 bad stick of memory in a million.
1. Intel for great processors and they invented dual core and are coming out with 4 core tech next month (and they make pocessors AND motherbords so if you have intel cpu and intel mobo it results in best compatibility) 2. Ballistix for making fast/high performance ram w/ heatsinks 3. Nvidia for CoolBits and the 6800 I'm getting christmas 4. Maxtor cause I've used a really old 8gig from them that worked but its really just hard drives so whatever
I don't like ASrock or Aopen. I don't like the 939 Dual Sata 2, the only reason I got it was because I was running an AGP, but knew I was going to get PCI-E. Aopen is just cheap crap.
favorite / least favorite CPU - AMD for Kick-Ass Processors /Intel, 'cause they are too hot (p4) RAM - G.skill, before that i only had infineon and kingston / Kingston (big timmingsat ddr400) MB - DFI for (never had one, but i would like to) / Asus (grab a new board and you will see) HDD - Seagate for silent and reliability / none realy Cooler - Thermalright (the best) / Intel P4 stock cooler GFX - ATI / Nvidia case - Aerocool / hp cases PSU - LC POWER / generic
favs: AMD ! !! !! Nvidia -lovin my 7900gt Asus- pretty good mobos thermaltake and zalman for cooling Hate: Dell (Duh) ECS --crappiest motherboards around Dell again and Dell
least favs; ocz corsair abit - suck in general, or as i like to say, abit are a-bit shit dfi (picky mainboards - too picky) nvidia (their drivers suck) favs asus - crosshair seriously owns all mushkin - gods of memory gigabyte - reliable high quality stuff western digital - awesome hdds ati - like i really need to say it
I think that is slightly biased, seeing as how you are a mushkin tech rep . If they are so good, then shouldn't you be out of a job? j/k.
Love: OCZ Mushkin Abit ATI Sapphire Logitech Seagate Intel AMD Creative Linksys Indifferent: Nvidia Asus DFI Gateway D-Link Maxtor Thermaltake Hate: Rosewill Dell
CPU - Intel Mobo - Something like Iwill, Tyan or Supermicro Videocards - PowerVR, they seem to be coming with a new desktop chip after all those years. (Athena) HD - Used to love Seagate for staying quite cool, though that's not true anymore. Portable media player - Archos Sound - Terratec Toothpaste - Aquafresh Also Epox for their great support And I hate Asus for their crapy service Toshiba are suckers too, they don't update firmwares.
like: ATi intel arctic coolers abit seagate gigabyte fujitsu (have a 10GB HDD thats 7 yrs old and still going ) Epson HP Microsoft Acer monitors LG SMC creative soloman samsung and dell (whats wrong with dell?!?) dislikes: SiS! Foxconn (my current mobo is crap) generic Vdata (ram stick just randomly stops working one day) stock P4 heatsinks no-name brand stuff infineon
Ok im a noob to this forum, tho i been a fan of TPU for a LONG time, since i started getting ati bios/bios tweak programs here for my 9600 way back when it didnt suck i have to comment first about people bitching about SiS,ECS and Foxconn first off any board you choose can have problems, do your research, I have a few tips that will help you choose a good board from any brand. 1. avoid via chipsets at all caust, amd+via=headakes 2.avoid via chipsets especly on "value" brands of boards, ECS and Foxconn have both made some pretty sticky board based on via and to a lesser extent the cheaper SiS matx boards(foxconn admits they had a bad cap problem, if your board has bulding/bad caps conntact them, even out of warr boards have gotten replaced by them for me(not to far out of warr, 6-8mo or so they just replaced them and appologized) 3. look at what your getting and what you want to do with it, dont buy an ecs SiS 755/756 based board and expect to overclock with it, You cant because ECS didnt make those boards to support overclocking(no multi level voltage controls for starters), sames true for any brand. I have had worse luck with gigabyte,asus,and MSI then ecs and foxconn, and on a truely sad point, i have gotten FAR better and more responcive service from them as well, foxconn sent me a new bios chip for my 755 based winfast board(good server board for 754 chips), ecs sent me a top hat flasher for my l7s7a2 when a beta flash they sent me to fix a dual video card problem dissabled the board(flash file was flawed) no charge from eather, the top 3 i listed all wanted 20-30 for new bios chips when they had bad flashes or had the chips die(msi had a whole seirse of boards whos chips would die if flashed more then 3-4 times) SiS has a bad rep because of the boards they are put on, en large the boards u find them on are EXTREAM budget boards cut down as much as possable to meet a price point, there where a few gems made with SiS over the years for axp tho, the k7s5a rev1 and 5 where good, some of the middle revisions where buggy and had bad runs, they also needed a psu with VERY clean 3 and 5v lines to use pc1xx ram(sdr) because the ram voltage was pulled dirrectly from the psu and not cleaned in anyway. The l7s7a2(ecs) was and still is one of the best darkhorse socketA boards you can ask for, it dosnt have alot of extra fetures like firewire or sata, but it makes up for that because it was 1.cheap, 2. VERY overclockable with cheapo bios, 3, ROCK SOLID STABLE 4. LOVES memory deviders, just like A64 chips onboard memory controler the sis memory controler dosnt/didnt suffer from poor perf/latancy when using memory deviders, nvidia,ali, and VIA all lost perf if you had to take the ram out of 1:1 mode. via chipsets are the bain of an amd tech's excistance, via has never worked all the bugs out of there chipset since the MVP line(socket7) they still have some things they havent changed/fixed properly. Now as to brands i like, well thats quite a list seagate,hitchi(not ibm, the ibm deathstars where made with cheaper parts then the hitchi branded drives), and maxtor have all treated me well motherboards, these will be listed in no real order and some of the companys dont make boards anymore. ECS, yes ecs, but only there FULL atx SiS and Nvidia boards, a coupld of there matx sis 76x chipset boards, there ati chipset boards are good in my limited exp(only used/tested 6 boards using them so far so no concrete oppenion is formed yet) Chaintech, the VNF3-250 is one of the best socket 754 boards u can get, very clockable, very stable, great communit behind it, onboard sound thats above avrage, all in all a very good board. Biostar Tforce line, i have setup a good number of Tforce boards, they are quite impressive really, the componants used in my oppenion are of higher quility then there msi,asus,gigabyte,abit,exct equivlants, the bios on these boards are EXTREAMLY good for overclocking, and the supports pretty good as well, tho you need to be willing to wait a couple days for a responce to an email form a real tech, these boards are DFI expert class for overclocking fetures but without the extream price, also they arent picky about ram at all ^^ Epox, i have used epox for YEARS and they are as a company VERY responcive to costmers, as long as the costmer is polite that is, if you are rude in an email they tend to ignore you. Overall i have had very few problems with epox. Abit, use to be good(nf7-s was my 2nd fav axp board, just under the l7s7a2, tho they are in diffrent classes) now days i wouldnt grab an abit board, maby i will once they settle into there new surroundings(buyouts tend to lead to problems at first) Foxconn for full atx sis 755/756 boards and nf2/3/4 boards, anything else i avoid due to large problems in matx boards with bad caps, this hit a few other makers such as msi and asus/asrock OEM boards(for dell/hp and such) foxconn support was VERY helpfull, the guy sent me a new bios chip when mine got crupted during a flash(power went out during flash) no problem and he even sent it 2nd day i have some other boards i like such as the FIC au13(fic version of the nf7 boards) very good clocker but hard to find even in its prime. Ram PQI, used them for years, only ever had to rma 2 sets of ram and they took care of it super fast, with the 2nd set they payed shiping both ways(long story) neither where things i could blame on poor design or build, just those "sh!t happens" kinda situations. Kingston ValueRam(hyperX sux)pc2700(ddr333) most of these sticks can do 400+(3200 or better) easly unlike corsair value ram and it comes cheap, the elpida(sp) chip based sticks tend to beable to hit 466 or better clocks with a little extra voltage. Gskill, good stuff in my exp, never had to return a set to them. A-data, vista is GOOD stuff, i have put 4 of their 2gb ddr1 kits into systems and every time i got ddr500+ clocks out of them with ease, the smaller size kits are in my exp very good as well, never had to return a set of them. Patriot, simlar to gskill and a-data but i have had to rma to them, it was a little slow because they where out of the kit i had, they did however endup calling me and offering me a better kit since they where out of stock on the one i had sent back and it was looking to be weeks b4 they would have more, good deal they sent me ram rated for 2-2-2-x in place of 3-4-4-7 stuff i sent back, tho it did take it a couple weeks to get to me(3.5 weeks total down time on that system due to ram) gigram, carsair, crutial, geil all where good for me tho i have had to rma stuff to them all more then once due to diffrent issues. ocz, well i have only used 2 kits from them the first one was ok, didnt clock for sh!t tho and caust to much(ocz gold crap,,,,,*grummble*) Mushkin, here where i got mixed feelings, i had a few great kits from them back in the day, then i had a HUGE problem with an RMA on a kit of ram that had both sticks just DIE, both sticks got so hot when pluged in that they would burn ur finger, well i got an rma number and shiped them back, was sent a confermation of recevial(sp?) and then NOTHING, after sending multi emails and trying to call them i gave up, it just wasnt worth the hassle, since then i have avoided them, i dont need to loose another 200+$ on a kit of ram that go's bad then never comes back from rma. but i cant list them as bad because the other kits are still working fine in systems i sold after alot of heavy use. Video cards. Ati based cards from power color ati msi asus(yes msi and asus sell/support there video cards decently, just not there mobos) elsa(miss them alot :/) HIS(iceq=the pwn) Optical drives BENQ Optorite PSU Fortron sorce power(fps) also known as sparkle Epower/tagen Enermax Epower has some of the best price/perf/quility psu's around check out there 500/550 watt psu's with 20+20 amps on the 12v rails, steller units, Any of these brands will deliver.(all are or are made by top OEM's) and last but not least Vantech for there chipset coolers, the coper icberq 1(orignaly for video cards) these units work for YEARS and cool motherboard chipsets as well as units selling for 3-4x the price, and they are SILENT. the bad Motherboards ECS, yes they are a favorite but they are also a HATED company by me for there via chipset based boards. asus,msi,gigabyte: these i lump togather because i have had the same or simlar problems with them all, poor bios support, tech reps that want to blame user error for everything or blame other companys when a bios bug is found they dont want to fix or dont know how to fix, then they put out a fix months later quietly and never admit they where WRONG to blame users. they also are SLOW and unreliable for RMA, asus is HORRID about just cleaning boards off and sending them back as "repaired" after posting them 1 time, i got the same board back 4 times in a row NOTHING WAS FIXED, they finnly gave in and sent me a new boxed delux board i proceded to sell to a buddy and replace with an abit board. gigabyte sent me bios 4 diffrent times for boards to fix issues i found, each of those times the flash killed the board(had successfull flashes between them on diffrent boards tho) and then wanted to charge me 30bucks a pop for new bios chips or i could spend 26bucks to FedEx them the boards( they wouldnt take usps.......) HDD WD, i have had ALOT of problems over the years with WD drives dieing or buggin out, i have been a tech for over 14years, i started at 12/13 building my own systems with parts places/schools where throwing out, or ppl would give me systems they didnt want, then i started working for a local computer shop, i saw more dead WD drives then all other brands combine, that includes, seagate,ibm(yes deathstars died less...),toshiba,fujitsu,masxtor,quantium,micronics,conner,maxgate(rare but good drives)...think i missed a maker or 2...but the point is that all the other brands we sold didnt have as many deaths as WD had, since then i have had or seen 30+ dead raptors that cooked themselves dispite acctive cooling being on them.....just bad stuff. Ram mushkin: as stated can say they are all bad, but having a 200+$ ram kit go in for rma and just dissapear puts a sour taist in ones mouth....... Corsair valueram, nasty stuff, over heats in sff systems to much and has no headroom for clocking at all. psu, anything thats not made by a top OEM, any case that comes with a common case(got enermax psu's with my enermax toolless cases that are still going 5years later dispite being HEAVLY overloaded the whole time ) video cards, s3/via poor driver support sis poor driver support, but very stable....so its not all bad i guess nvidia, long story as short as possable, i LOVED nvidia till the fx5800ultra they sold me that sounded like an 80's dustbuster and was slower then a 9600 256mb(non pro) at dx9 beta games i was officaly testing, the 9600 was less then 1/4 the price mind you........ the 6800gt was dissapointing to me as well, driver issues with Image quility and studders(known issue nvidia admits happens but cant seem to fix) just got sick of it, use to hate ati because of poor driver support(rage128=useless in anything but windows 9x) but someebody brought me around and showd me how ati grew up and started to make driver support a real priority oh and another note on the look at what your buying for what you want to do thing, dont buy a cheap entry level board for overclocking, you will just be dissapointed, you can however buy a relitivly cheap board such as the tforce 550(80buck new on the egg) and get a board spicificly made to overclock, do your research, dont just read review sites, read forums, ask questions, look into things b4 you buy parts of any kind, its a lession most true enthusists learn early on, we talk to eachother and find out what there is to know about diffrent parts befor we buy them. my current system was build to be cheap as possable whal still being very overclockable and upgradeable(holding out for the new x2 256k 65nm chips or k8l(quad core) b4 i upgrade the cpu) and it is very clockable, very stable once u workthe best way to clock with am2(little diffrent from 754 and 939 )

WR Steve Smith, who has 11,902 receiving yards in his career, needs three more yards to pass Hall of Fame WR Michael Irvin for 22nd on the NFL's all-time list. And with two more receptions, Smith will pass Hall of Fame TE Shannon Sharpe for 25th all time.
LB Chase Blackburn is still struggling with a foot injury. If he doesn't get well by Monday night, rookie A.J. Klein will get his second straight start.
K Graham Gano has made five field goals of 50 yards or more this season, breaking the Panthers' single-season record of four set by John Kasay in 1998 and 2006.
RG Chris Scott is unlikely to return from a knee injury by Monday night, which would give converted DT Nate Chandler his second straight start.
DE Charles Johnson, who has 8.5 sacks through nine games, is a half-sack away from becoming the first player in Panthers history to record at least nine sacks in four straight seasons.
CB James Dockery was placed on injured reserve with a shoulder injury. The third-year player appeared in five games making five tackles this season.
OG Travis Bond was signed from the Vikings' practice squad. He was a seventh-round pick in April's draft. Bond will help supply depth to an offensive line that has seen five members land on injured reserve.

"Skeletor to King Randor, Skeletor to King Randor, come in you Royal Boob!"

I'd also like to see her come with a unique crossbow. Perhaps one that looks like it would fire two bolts; a double shot!

John Albers
ThinkBuzan Licensed Instructor in Mind Mapping, Creativity, Innovation and iMindMap
ThinkBuzan Licensed Instructor in Speed Reading
My name is John Albers. Presently owner of BrainFun coaching. A company dedicated to help people become more successful in live and work.
The last 15 years I have been working as a manager at varies internationally oriented companies. I have done so with great pleasure. To be able to create a team that is working productively together is great fun. Even more if you are able to stimulate the team members to grow, that is a super bonus that comes with the job.
Increasingly I experienced the struggle that employees have to keep up their professional expertise. Not only the amount of information has increased formidable, also the information carriers have grown exponential. The third factor is that to become successful, you have to be able to work together, hence to communicate effectively.
Personally I have been using Mindmaps for approximately 15 years now. All the teams that I have lead (including the soccer team of my daughters) I have exposed to the benefits of Mindmapping. As soon as team members get the hang of it, it becomes the major way of communication within the team. In the past decade, with the help of my teams and Mindmapping we solved many operational crisis.
We also where able to get across the necessity of investments of millions of euros in hardware, where sometimes we literally got a positive decision within minutes. Mindmapping enables you to get to the point very quickly. Needless to say that appraisals where always done by means of Mindmaps.
With the coming of the Imindmap software, I decided that it was time for me to get certified as a ThinkBuzan Licensed Instructor on Mindmapping. Recently I had the privilege of being taught the "secrets" of Speedreading by Tony Buzan himself.
So know I am ready to teach the world these wonderful live changing techniques. My home base lies in the Netherlands, from here I will go wherever people want to experience and learn the information processing techniques Tony Buzan gave us.

Coyote Linux is a mini distribution designed for setting up network utility services such as Internet connection sharing, firewalling, or wireless access points. The goal is to make it as quick and easy as possible to set up a Linux system with only a minimal amount of Linux knowledge.
eCos (Embedded Configurable OS) is an open source, configurable, portable, and royalty-free embedded Real Time Operating System. It is written in C++, provides all the usual OS things. You configure the OS so that the parts you don't need aren't loaded to the embedded system. eCos is released under a modified GPL that allows for its use in embedded systems without having to GPL the embedded application.
Gentoo Linux is a versatile and fast Linux distribution for x86, PowerPC, Sparc, and Sparc64 that's geared towards Linux power users. Unlike other distros, it has an advanced package management system called Portage. Portage is a true ports system in the tradition of BSD ports, but is Python-based and sports a number of advanced features including dependencies, fine-grained package management, "fake" (OpenBSD-style) installs, path sandboxing, safe unmerging, system profiles, virtual packages, config file management, and more.
Mandriva is an RPM-based Linux distribtion. It excels at usability and simplicity, features thoroughly preconfigured KDE and GNOME desktops, and includes cool tools like supermount (transparent access to removable media) and DiskDrake (a full-featured graphical hard-drive partitioner). Unlike former versions, Mandriva is not a tuned-up Red Hat, but a very mature Linux distribution on its own. Mandriva is published by a company, but is a completely open and transparent free-software project.

So...how does it taste? Did you refridgerate it? Does the upper crust peel off easily? Im so excited!!!
I didn't refrigerate it because it didn't say to, but my house is probably colder than my refrigerator so I don't think it matters..
I didn't try to take off the upper crust but I did cut off the sides and ate them with the kids, it was good but tasted mostly of the browned side and I didn't get the full matcha taste. I will be cutting into it in a couple hours.....

Oak Creek - An alert off-duty security officer thwarted a shoplifting attempt at Pick 'n Save, 2320 W. Ryan Road, at 12:30 p.m. Dec. 18, and detained one of the suspects until police arrived.
According to the Oak Creek police log:
An off-duty loss prevention contractor for Roundy's was shopping at the store when he saw two men loading a cart with baby formula. The officer recognized one of the men as a shoplifting suspect from recent store alerts and immediately told the store manager. When the manager attempted to stop the men at the store exit, one, a 51-year-old Milwaukee man, pushed the manager back and reached toward his waistband. Fearing the man had a weapon, the security officer wrestled him to the floor and held him until police arrived.
Pick 'n Save employees locked the front doors during the incident for the safety of incoming customers.
The second man involved in the theft attempt is described as a stocky man wearing a multi-colored plaid shirt. He drove off in a silver or tan Buick Century.
Officers discovered the 51-year-old man is wanted on a warrant for retail theft with the West Allis Police Department and on five warrants for grand theft in Florida.

so after the mtv ema's, i snuck into a 21+ afterparty hosted by snoop dogg in an amsterdam nightclub, right? well. i made it to the front of the crowd. i was this close to snoop dogg. he passed me a joint. it was amazing.
then i decided it wasn't enough. you see, snoop was on this platform seperated from the rest of the club. on this platform was a lot of leather couches and hot people with drinks. so i went to the side of the club and pretended my friend was on the platform. the giant 7 feet tall guard miraculously let me through and i was in the vip section with snoop dogg
i was literally the only one there who wasn't on the guest list. i had some boy pour me drinks (which turned out to be PURE VODKA) and it took me an hour of socializing with strippers and models to figure out that everyone's alcohol WAS ON TABS and that since i wasnt on the vip list I DIDN'T HAVE A TAB
i left and then i realized i stole snoop dogg's alcohol
this has been my story

Greenlane Clinical Centre

Epsom, Auckland
At ADHB we are committed to utilising resources in the most effective way as we strive for improved health outcomes. We have a 'whole system' approach which sees our focus on the community, with education and prevention to help protect our population in healthy lifestyles, to managing people in the community with chronic conditions through to very specialised hospital care. This provides a rewarding environment to staff complemented by extensive research and learning opportunities that are supported and encouraged by the organisation.
The DHB is funded on a population-based funding formula that is based on where people were living on census night. Adjustments are made for age, ethnicity and also for the amount of specialist work provided to people outside the area.
Hospital and related services owned by the Auckland DHB receive approximately 76 percent of the budget. Sixty percent of this revenue is associated with staff costs, approximately 20 percent is related to treatment costs, with the remainder linked to equipment, capital, depreciation and administration.
Twenty four percent of total revenue is associated with non hospital services, the bulk of which is made up from Primary Health Organisations, pharmaceuticals and laboratory residential services for older people and for people with a mental illness. There are a number of Kaupapa services run by and for Maori and similar culturally based services for Pacific people. Dental services and palliative care are also provided in the community under contract to the DHB.
