Overall Experience
Good choice
April 11, 2016
Staff is very friendly and helpful. Beds are a bit soft but I prefer a hard bed so this is a very personal reaction. Room is NOT cleaned daily....please be aware.
Clean and inexpensive
March 19, 2016
Air cond. in room sounded like we had a jet airplane ready to take off. Could NOT change fan speed.
Room was clean and reasonably comfortable for ONE person. Bed was virtually against the wall on on side so you had to climb over someone to get in/out if needed.
Reading lamp on one side of bed only.
TV very small and fixed at a very odd position.
No room safe or lighted switches.
All considered it is not bad for the price.
Overall good stay
March 17, 2016
Overall a good stay. Clean, very spacious. Comfortable bed. Had problem adjusting air/heat wall register to turn down fan. It was loud - Couldn't hear TV without turning up to blast and couldn't sleep with constant loudness . Only 2 settings: off and on - not variable. Got help from John who overrode controls directly on equipment. Thanks John!
Walls were a bit thin slightly hear next door occupants. Friendly & helpful staff.
Kitchenette and free laundry dryer was convenient.
Great stay!

I would highly recommend this wonderful location for your stay. It was very convenient to the volleyball/sporting facilities so easy to go back and forth between games. Great staff as well

I am not very knowledgeable about bike trailers, but saw one of these in a bike shop the other day and thought it looked interesting. From what I can tell, once you unhook the trailer from the bike it's a lot more manageable than most other bike trailers -- you can wheel it around like a piece of luggage you'd wheel through an airport.
Apparently is just now hitting the market and getting good reviews:
Also, just won an award at Eurobike...

A leading homelessness charity has appealed to Christmas shoppers not to give money to beggars.
Street beggars will only go and spend the money on drugs, the Thames Reach organisation said.
Anyone moved by seasonal generosity to hand cash to a beggar is most likely to be helping them only to harm themselves, its staff said.
The charity's call against handing money out to apparently destitute street sleepers is the latest in a decade-long series of appeals from voluntary groups and officialdom aimed at preventing the kind-hearted from giving money to beggars.

This is the final call for input on a NOAA Diver's Field Handbook. NDP hopes to have published a field handbook for all NOAA divers much like the U.S. Navy version. We need your input as to what information would be most useful in this handbook. The intent of this publication will be to provide a ready, compact resource on-site for diving operations. UDS Seminar attendees were all provided a questionnaire to be filled out and turned back in to NDC. Its still not too late to submit completed questionnaires. Suggestions regarding handbook content are, of course, welcome from all NOAA divers.
Another decision resulting from the Safety Board meeting addresses Scientific divers as Divemasters. In the past Scientific divers have not been able to attend Divemaster training. This rule has changed. Scientific divers may now act as Divemasters for scientific diving operations only,
after successfully completing NOAA Divemaster
training. They may supervise both Scientific and Working divers. They may not be Divemasters of diving operations classified as working dives. Please contact NDC if you have any questions regarding this new policy.
A contract has been awarded to test dive computers for possible future use by NOAA divers. Over a 90 day period several different computers
will undergo testing to identify units most suitable for use by the NOAA Diving Program. Testing will include both bench testing and in the field trials. If a suitable unit can be identified, this is the first step in bringing dive computers to the NDP and the SEP. Dive computers are currently not authorized for use by NOAA divers for on-duty diving.
The "May" Working Diver class commences April 30. Both the Working Diver and Divemaster classes are full and NDC is no longer accepting applications to these classes. The last two Working Diver courses have had more applicants than we have had training spots. Typically the September Working Diver and Divemaster courses are not as full as the January or May classes. However, there has already been significant interest in the September course. If your ship or unit is interested in sending a diver to the September courses, please contact Laurie Barber at NDC at your earliest convenience
The following classes are scheduled for 2001/2002:

Where do you find a 3.9 oz box of pudding? My choices were2.1 and 1.4 - so I combined the two - but it still came out too thick. should have used the amount of milk on each box - not the recipe. Was using the sugar free/fat free - would that make a difference? I will make this again - had made it years ago but couldn't find my recipe. Now that I know what to change. but I'm out 2 boxes of pudding and a pie crust .... :(
This pie was really good. The only change I made was that I used a wire whisk to gently fold the whipped cream into the pudding mixture. If you blend it too much the pie probably won't set up like it should.

I have a a char array:
char* name = "hello";
I want to add an extension to that name to make it
How can I do this?
name += ".txt" won't work
Have a look at the strcat function.
In particular, you could try this:
No, you have a character pointer to a string literal. In many usages you could add the const modifier, depending on whether you are more interested in what name points to, or the string value, "hello". You shouldn't attempt to modify the literal ("hello"), because bad things can happen.
The major thing to convey is that C does not have a proper (or first-class) string type. "Strings" are typically arrays of chars (characters) with a terminating null ('\0' or decimal 0) character to signify end of a string, or pointers to arrays of characters.
I would suggest reading Character Arrays, section 1.9 in The C Programming Language (page 28 second edition). I strongly recommend reading this small book ( <300 pages), in order to learn C.
Further to your question, sections 6 - Arrays and Pointers and section 8 - Characters and Strings of the C FAQ might help. Question 6.5, and 8.4 might be good places to start.
I hope that helps you to understand why your excerpt doesn't work. Others have outlined what changes are needed to make it work. Basically you need an char array (an array of characters) big enough to store the entire string with a terminating (ending) '\0' character. Then you can use the standard C library function strcpy (or better yet strncpy) to copy the "Hello" into it, and then you want to concatenate using the standard C library strcat (or better yet strncat) function. You will want to include the string.h header file to declare the functions declarations.
First copy the current string to a larger array with strcpy, then use strcat.
For example you can do:
You could copy and paste an answer here, or you could go read what our host Joel has to say about strcat.

A homeless man appeared Wednesday in Clark County Superior Court on suspicion of attempting to rob the downtown Vancouver branch of Chase Bank on Tuesday.
Robert D. Hobert, 56, of Vancouver, faces a charge of first-degree robbery at his arraignment April 17. Judge Barbara Johnson set bail at $50,000 and appointed Vancouver attorney Jeff Sowder to defend him.
The 11:30 a.m. incident prompted police to briefly set up a containment zone around much of downtown's central business district.
The suspect allegedly entered the bank at 1205 Broadway and presented a note demanding money to a teller, Vancouver police said. The note stated, "Give me the money. This is a hold-up," according to a probable cause affidavit. The teller stepped away from her window out of view. When she didn't immediately return, the suspect fled on foot through the bank's north doors, without any cash, police said.
Police apprehended him about 15 minutes later near West 13th and Esther streets in front of the Van Vista apartments complex, where he admitted to the robbery, according to court documents.
Hobert has a criminal history dating to 1978, including multiple counts of assault, indecent exposure, malicious mischief, criminal trespass and probation violations. Most recently, on March 18, a sexual assault protection order was filed against him.

Remember when you were a teenager and you wanted to paint your bedroom black, black and black (and your folks said no)? Joseph Haddad of Caffenatics has done just that with his Brunswick warehouse-roastery. The black is relieved by dark-stained chipboard and chrome highlights creating a flashy Eurochic mood. The menu riffs on that, with cafe brunches, salads and sandwiches given cheffy flavour jolts. So, French toast is gingerbread with a vanilla cream cheese filling; while crunchy, smoky ham-hock croquettes prop on a plate of cauliflower puree with wilted spinach and a poached egg atop.

The scoop on Bucs drafting of kicker Aguayo. A lesson from Belichick?
aussiePanther replied to top dawg's topic in Carolina PanthersMade even better by the fact they TRADED UP to get him... as if another team was going to pick a kicker in the second.
Ron Rivera's office
aussiePanther replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina PanthersI saw the photo album / whatever on panthers.com this morning, but I just had a thought now: I thought Ron's office was down near the locker room now? Given the view in that first photo this looks like it's at least one floor off the ground and doesn't seem like it would be near the locker room. Huh.
Brandon Boykin to visit Falcons
aussiePanther replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina PanthersI would need that coupled with bad CB play by our rookies. Come at me bro.
Saints stealing ideas from The Huddle
aussiePanther replied to Mr. Scot's topic in Carolina PanthersHow the hell does Loomis think they're going to pay for these guys??!!?? Already $17M over the cap, expected to be $5.6M over with their 51+draft.
Sooners reporter talks Williams, Sanchez
aussiePanther replied to Mr. Scot's topic in Carolina PanthersI wonder how much of that is because he's been with our coaches as opposed to the Sooners coaches?
Comparative approaches to roster building in the NFC South
aussiePanther replied to KB_fan's topic in Carolina PanthersGreat work KB_Fan My only query is whether the focus on TE is really a great shock? All I've been hearing all offseason (mostly from Igo admittedly) was that TE #2 was a major focus. Bringing in 3 TEs after drafting one might be more than we were expecting, but I've been totally underwhelmed by Williams over the last two years, Dickson was never great and is getting older & I'm not sure how much Simonson was going to show after being cut and then re-signed to the practice squad. It had been in my mind that apart from Olsen there was no certainty that the other 3 TEs would be back this year. In fact to be honest, right now I'm hoping it will be Olsen, Beau & 1 or 2 of the new rookies that make the 53, because that should mean we've had real progress at that position and can get back to seeing more 2 TE sets. And getting harder... It's always bittersweet to have to cut good players who could easily start on other teams in the league. It's something we're going to see more and more often, that and well liked players leaving for starting roles when their contract ends. Which could explain some of the focus in LB? I think AJ and possibly even Mayo (eventually) might not be content with Special Teams and relying on injury to get playing time. Especially when they see twice a year what teams like the Falcons put on the field.
Panthers Release Boykin
aussiePanther replied to jdpanther5's topic in Carolina PanthersSo I don't really want to add to this... but I need to point out that people worrying about the fact that Gettleman gave a man a $80K signing bonus and then cut him before he got on the practice field need to realise that you're talking about 0.05% of the years salary cap. I'm not talking about the fact you've already signed him, have room under the 90 man limit and probably should have at least gotten pads on all these CBs before cutting anyone. Just saying that complaining about the $80K is ridiculous. I assume that cutting him now was about doing the right thing by Boykin after we signed him to a one year prove-it deal and then totally changed the situation at that position. But that seems far too considerate of a professional football player's feelings in a situation that's way too likely to change (performance/injury/development). I tell you what the next media person to get an interview with Gettleman is going to get a massive spike in readership/viewers/listeners.
I was going to write in my last comment that it's the people on the edge of football clubs that put in incredible effort and time for relatively small return, doing it mostly out of love for the place that give it soul and make it more than just a franchise or an organisation. Usually people you would never think about or see and yet they can be some of the most important.
Ha, that's awesome.
Non Boykin/Hardy/rookie-Bills Shaq Lawson to have surgery
aussiePanther replied to ctrcat's topic in Carolina PanthersIt's only offseason so whatever, who cares... but this is relevant to Carolina how? Read the title, my brain swapped Lawson for Thompson and I just about hit the ceiling before I realised who this was about.
Thinking about this I realised it would probably be Ricky Proehl who would step in if it was anyone.
Greg Hardy's Agent Sent Letter To All 32 Teams Addressing His Behavior
aussiePanther replied to SportsCrazie4172's topic in Carolina PanthersDG wouldn't ever get the chance to consider it. The Big Cat would never allow it. Ever. No question. This forum has been over this crap topic again and again and again... ESPN took a hit by giving him air time, Hardy took a bigger hit by continuing to show that he hasn't learned his lesson and he hasn't changed his tune. The man will not play football in the NFL again. So it's not you who's wrong, it's the rest of the world? Good luck feeling aggrieved and indignant, just please don't keep telling us what you think about it. I guess we'll see huh? Dallas took the risk and gave him every opportunity (more than he deserved even) to get it all back. Hardy blew it big time and they got burnt. Every GM in the league saw that, you think they're going to ignore that? You think they should? How many second chances should a guy get? Seriously you guys need to let it go. Hardy WILL NOT PLAY AGAIN. Move on.
Who's call would it be to stop him from taking 89 if he wants it? I doubt JR would be that hands on to be in the know before it happened. Getts has a policy of not being concerned about "players of other teams" and I doubt he feels that much about Smitty that he would interject. Ron? Maybe, I guess. Doubt it though. So if the rookie wanted #89 who's call would it be to stop him?
Gettleman didn't speak for 'Skins on Norman, but he said nothing, but said enough.
aussiePanther replied to top dawg's topic in Carolina PanthersI don't think it was a bad contract from Washington (assuming he continues his high level of play of the last season and a half). I truly think this was a win-win-win, close to best situation for all sides of the deal. Josh gets his big pay day and his family is set for life, Washington turn one of their weaknesses into a relative strength and we get money to splash around the roster to keep and extend more impactful (in our system) players that we might have otherwise had to let "graduate" (assuming the rookies and remaining CBs can pick up the slack enough that it's not a problem).
Someone sell me on why Butler was a good pick?
aussiePanther replied to Doc Holiday's topic in Carolina PanthersMassive conversation on this in the Draft Pick thread that went 38 pages. From that thread two comments I made was: Basically "rotational" is not only "depth" you need at least 4 DTs as "starters", we should roll with 5 on gamedays.

If you are handing your iphone or ipod touch to your child you may want to seriously consider the Fisher Price case that protects the screen against drips and sticky hands. It has a sturdy shell that should cushion a fall, but the company does not make that claim. There is a hole for the camera and you can download free learning apps. This is available in blue or pink. We are not recommending that preschool apps are a great learning tool or that time spent playing with the small screen is time well spent. We have serious concerns and recognize that small children learn best by interacting with people and real things. But, recognizing that this is one of many ways children try on the world, we are simply suggesting this as a way of protecting your equipment.

A man accused of raping a widow on the pretext of marriage since her husband's death in 1994, was acquitted by a Delhi court as the woman, a Delhi police head constable, turned "hostile" and denied being "raped" by him. Additional Sessions Judge (ASJ) Yogesh Khanna let off the accused, a father of two, on the charges of raping and cheating the woman.
"Considering the fact that the prosecutrix (woman) herself had denied of being raped by the accused (man) and had herself deposed that she made the statements...out of anger and frustration as she needed a settlement of the property dispute she had with her in-laws.
"She thought that the accused, a mediator, was in collusion with her in-laws, so she had filed the complaint against him. (This) does show that the woman falsely claimed of being raped by the accused," the court said.
"Even the brother of the woman had turned hostile and he too was cross-examined by the public prosecutor for the state, but nothing incriminating came on record against the accused," ASJ Khanna observed.
He said that "In this circumstances, considering the deposition of the prosecutrix where she had completely turned hostile, the accused deserves to be acquitted of the charges."
The man was picked by the police in May on the woman's complaint with the Hauz Khas police station that after her husbands death in 1993, her neighbour developed physical relation with her on promise of marriage. "In the year 1994, my neighbour at Kotla Mubarakpur in south Delhi started getting close to me and then without my consent, he made physical relations with me.
"He used to promise marriage to me and I did not disclose this fact to anyone due to shame...He also used to threaten me if I disclose these facts to anyone that he would get me and my daughter killed," the woman had told the police.

A bit on the average side: The findings of an international survey 'Cities of Opportunity' rank the nation's capital at 17th place on a list of 30 cities, but with nothing special to shout about.
In an international survey that looks at how key metropolises around the world measured up in terms of how successful, liveable and attractive they are, Kuala Lumpur came in 17th out of 30 cities – not bad, but not great either.
Unsurprisingly, as lovers of London will no doubt agree, the home of Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, and Will and Kate, claimed the top spot in the survey's overall rankings for the first time since it began in 2007.
Conducted annually by auditing firm PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PWC), the survey – titled Cities of Opportunity – named Britain's capital as the one to beat, citing the city's combination of infrastructure, economic influence, and readiness to embrace technology as key factors that put it ahead of its closest competitors.
Those competitors include last year's top-ranked city, New York, which dropped to 2nd place. Singapore made an impressive leap up the list, from last year's 7th to 3rd, with the island state's "transportation and infrastructure" and "ease of doing business" scoring highest. Paris however, lost a bit of love, as it dropped from 4th to 6th, but still leads the other cities in "intellectual capital and innovation".
Rise and fall: How the cities compare in the Cities of Opportunity 2014 survey, in descending order, compared with two previous rankings. The list of cities change slightly from year to year. KL was added to the survey's list of cities in 2012.
According to PWC, the survey aims "to examine urban life in a way that can help our 30 cities (and through them, cities in general) to understand the patterns and pathways toward building healthy, prosperous communities."
In the latest and sixth edition of the survey – published via PWC's website on May 20 as a free PDF download – the team looked at the 30 cities on the list and checked their performance against 10 indicators that broadly cover the areas of technology and infrastructure, quality of life, and potential for creating economic wealth.
Although the survey's scope has evolved since its first edition, PWC said that the set of criteria for selecting cities to the list – their importance as commercial hubs; their broad geographical distribution; and to represent both "mature" and "emerging" cities – remain unchanged since it started. Meanwhile, the scores are based on publicly available information, augmented by the survey team's own research.
This year's list of 30 is the longest yet, more than double the survey's initial list of 11 in 2007. Three new cities added to the list this year are Jakarta, Nairobi and World Cup host Rio de Janeiro. Meanwhile, Abu Dhabi was dropped and replaced with Dubai. Kuala Lumpur was added to the list in 2012.
KL's average scores
While it's good news that the nation's beloved capital moved up the overall rankings – from last year's 18th to 17th – and even outperformed other well-established urban hubs like Beijing, Moscow and Rio de Janeiro, KL's report card reveals it as an average city at best.
KL scored mostly average points on almost every indicator in the survey, only managing the highest ranking of 8th for "cost" (which measures a city's standard of living). Most worrying is KL's ranking for "sustainability and the natural environment" – the city placed a dismal 27th. Two other indicators where KL came in the bottom ten are "intellectual and capital innovation" and "health, safety and security".
Average city: How KL ranks in the Cities of Opportunity 2014 survey, in the list of 30 cities, according to survey indicators. (Highest is 1, lowest is 30.)

In the "API usage example" on "Getting started" page in HBase documentation there is an example of scanner usage:
Scanner scanner = table.getScanner(new String[]{"myColumnFamily:columnQualifier1"});
RowResult rowResult = scanner.next(); while (rowResult != null) { //... rowResult = scanner.next();
As I understand, this code will be executed on one machine (name node) and all scanning and filtering work will be not distributed. Only data storing and data loading will be distributed. How can I use distributed scanner, which will work separetly on each node.
Which is the best practise of fast data filtering? Thanks.

If there are requirements to be Indianapolis' 'rain barrel guy,' Andy Cochran meets them. He has the beard, carpentry experience and sense of humor to help conserve water. After graduating from IU he was roofing across the country. Eventually he realized that Indianapolis needed him. He apprenticed under Laura and Tyler Henderson of the SlowFoodGardens. Cochran started creating rain barrels for the community, which the Hendersons had done as a service. In the two years he's run Circle City Rain Barrels it's developed into a sustainable business.I spoke with Cochran at the Indiana Living Green office.
Indiana Living Green: Tell me a little bit about how you started doing rain barrels.
Andy Cochran: So I had an opportunity with Laura and Tyler Henderson to help them out at the White RiverStateGarden, the SlowFoodGarden downtown, just to basically apprentice underneath them. I jumped at it. I quit my job literally the next day. It was paying like a third of what I was making, like $800 a month, but I didn't care. In that process Laura and Tyler used to make rain barrels – which I didn't really know anything about until then. It wasn't necessarily like a business model or a way to make money, it was on an as-needed basis.
ILG: Has it paid off at this point? How many barrels have you done?
Cochran: Up to 400 barrels. I've done a few 50 gallon totes too. I'm really trying to build towards, I want to get like a gallon number. Each barrel is a 55 gallon food-grade drum. Upcycling something that was trash into something that's of use. So you figure that if everybody used their barrel just once and we're up around, let's say 400, so 55 gallons times the 400 is like whatever amount of gallons (22,000 gallons). And that's if everybody used it just once. There's the money that it cost to go down the drainage system and get processed and sent back out to you. It's that whole connection to the water system and waterways. I mean we're raised in a world of faucets. Wherever you're at, turn it on and there's water.
ILG: How do we bring masculinity and sexuality into environmentalism?
Cochran: You get really dirty and really sweaty. [laughs] I mean, the beard. The beard gets a lot of attention. It's funny. Obviously beards are in or whatever right now, which cracks me up because I've had one for a while.
ILG: That's where this interview is headed. I think you could be that role model for more guys to get involved in gardening, recycling.
Cochran: [laughs] Yeah, well we were talking about that. It's really dominated by women. They're everywhere in it. So yeah, I don't know. The guys are definitely the rare breed in it.
ILG: So how do we get more guys involved in urban gardening?
Cochran: Well you could tell them that there's a ton of females out there that are already in it. If they want to pick-up on a hot hipster chick. [laughs]
ILG: Why don't you walk me through one of the workshops you do? How do those go?
Cochran: Yeah. So they're usually set up by someone else. Everybody pre-signs up, pre-pays. It's my job to get all the materials to get the barrels, all the supplies there, which is pretty tough. It's a walk-through of what it would take, beginning to end, if you were to do it by yourself. It's just funny watching people do it their own ways because I've done so many of them and I try to teach those like little techniques to use. Inevitably, everybody still fumbles through it their own way and at the end everybody has a rain barrel that's their own so, you know, whatever. And they get to take that and everybody names them at the end. It's kind of a joke. I'm always like, 'And one last step…' Which people actually get a kick out of, the names. I've heard like Bertha. Bertha the rain barrel.
ILG: So what are your personal rain barrels' names?
Cochran: I have too many.
ILG: None of them are named?
Cochran: George Foreman I, George Foreman II, [laughs].
ILG: And you sell the DIY kits too?
Cochran: Yeah. That one's pretty straight to it. Honestly, the hardest part is getting the barrels. There's this whole scary, sketchy underworld. It's like a Mad Max barter-town scenario. I'm serious.
ILG: Who knew that your rain barrel stuff was weirdly supported by a drug cartel's need for barrels?
Cochran: [laughs] Yeah, that or someone trying build something to go down Niagara Falls or something.

Univ. of Tenn. proposes new dining plan changes
The new plan would allow on- and off-campus undergraduates to either purchase a meal plan or purchase a dining balance plan of $300 or more per semester.
Nov. 13—University students could soon see a change in how their campus dining plans work, including those who live off-campus.
A few years ago, campus dining enrollment hit an all-time high, then dropped quickly. UT says, in the meantime, retail sales have increased.
With several new university investments, including new dining options, university officials are now looking for new ways to keep the revenue flowing into the dining system.

Fellow Azerothian,
"LEVEL UP! 41 down, 49 levels to go" sound familiar?
It's the frustration of climbing that bothersome process called leveling before sliding down the slope of awesome loot and fun.
I know that feeling well, and if you can relate to this you know by now you're kinda forcing your way through with the lingering knowledge that it'll be over in 49 levels.
If you're tired of wasting your time, tired of drudging your character and grinding past quest after quest aimlessly to level 90, save yourself. Let me help you get through this process as quickly and efficiently as possible so that you can focus on the true reason you play any game. THE FUN!
"How will you help me?"
I was never the girl that showed off and pile on other noob players for not knowing what's best for their class, the best way to talent your character and what not.
If anything, I was the opposite.
I'm that girl who would love to run your alt through Scarlet Monastery or Razorfen Downs.
Coming from a background of gaming since Everquest, you could say I was brought up in MMORPG's to help other gamers instead of putting them down.
As a recruitment officer in my guild, it was my responsibility to not only recruit players into my guild to help our guild expansion but also to help speed their leveling.
So it comes to no surprise that I needed a system, one that I had to constantly revise as I bring guildie after guildie through the level grinder that is constantly evolving through each expansion.
It is this system and my sincerest notion to help others that have led me to the creation of this guide.
So what's so special about this leveling guide?
Short answer...
Simply because I've given it my all. I've gone through an entire leveling process with my monk from level 1 to 90 and triple checked my leveling system and revised it for Mists of Pandaria.
Originally this guide was made from a long power leveling guide post in my own guild forums exclusively.
But the time has come for me to share with the community my version of what the most efficient leveling system is and how I leveled so quickly.
To help a fresh new generation of WoW players get ahead and catch up with the rest of us.
The system essentially lays out a combination of quests per zone that gives the most exp per time spent ratio. The system works independent of your willingness to participate in group instances and has proven to be effective even if you're a solo player. Essentially the guide works because it maximizes your time every time!
Proper specs and talents trees for all classes including the new monk while leveling.
1 to 90 guaranteed with triple the time saved from useless quests.
Doesn't require you to grind instances or repeated grinding of level equivalent mobs.
Exact coordinates for every quest objective and location in WoW.
Quests laid out in detailed order so you don't waste time scurrying back and forth between zones.
Strategies for every complicated quest.
Exact lists of kills, items for looting and anything else you need to gather.
Never get lost trying to find a specific NPC again.
This guide works for every class and and every level of player from newbie to elite.
Not only are you getting one of the most finely tuned and efficient leveling systems on the planet, this guide is the product of many years of tweaking and testing so you can be assured it WORKS, with exact coordinates and accurate instructions so you don't waste time grasping at straws finding a solution that works.
Originally this guide was made from a long power leveling guide post in my own guild forums exclusively.
But the time has come for me to share with the community my version of what the most efficient leveling system is and how I leveled so quickly.
To help a fresh new generation of WoW players get ahead and catch up with the rest of us.
Don't waste time figuring out what builds are best for leveling as I will show you the best leveling builds for all classes and save you from wasting time reading up or respeccing due to multiple trial and errors.
As the multiple fun aspects of WoW are all tied to the max levels of each expansion, it is a no brainer that you'll get the most fun only when you're 90. So why drag your feet when you can rush to the fun of the game in record time!
Keep in mind that the more time you're not spending hunting epics with your friends, the more time you're wasting not having fun.
If I had to give you an answer it would be "INVALUABLE".
After all I did design this system for my guild in mind. However I do intend to contribute to the community as I mentioned earlier. With that in mind I originally thought $197 was a decent price to ask.
But after further thought, I remembered that I am still doing this mainly as a passion project and I should truly make it so that getting this guide is a no brainer. So I revised the price to $97.
But once again, I felt that I had an obligation to help the people that needed such a guide the most. This way not only do I get to help as many WoW players as possible, but I can earn just enough to cover my efforts and expenses.
So the final price for the entire Mists of Pandaria Revealed is just…
Yup. You read that right. My guildies are telling me that price is just too low for years of work I've put in compiling and designing this system, but like I mentioned this is the best way to help you as part of the WoW community. And don't worry, unlike some of the other guides, I've left nothing out to devalue this guide.
And to top it all off... Here's:
My crew and I over at Mists of Pandaria Revealed are very proud of what we've created. It took a lot of hard work and a ton of effort to come up with what we have so far.
Rest assured that none of us are out to make a quick buck here. And that's why, if for any reason, you think Mists of Pandaria Revealed is not up to your expectations, just write us within 60 days of your purchase and we'll give you a full refund immediately.
You'll get back every single dime you spent, and to top it off, you can even keep our guide!
We're not fooling around here and we don't want you to feel like we do either.
The bottom line is: if you aren't happy, we don't want your money, period!
Take control of your game and finally play World of Warcraft the way it was meant to be played.
Hundreds of other players have already benefited from this guide, and now the solution to overcome all your difficulties is within your grasp.
Don't waste any more time, take your game from zero to level 90 today!
for Only $17 with a 100%, 60 Day Money Back Guarantee.

I've been thinking about farewell tours.
George Strait recently announced the dates for the 2014 leg of his "Cowboy Rides Away Tour." I was a little surprised, because when the 2013 shows were going on, I don't recall anyone mentioning there would be a 2014 leg. In fact, the final 2013 show, at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas, was widely touted as being Strait's last concert. The Alamodome, which holds more than 65,000 seats, sold out during presale.
To be fair, Strait never said that the tour wouldn't have a 2014 leg. But back when I heard about it, I thought, "Gee, isn't he a little young for a farewell tour?" Strait is 61, which is a great age to retire if one is, for example, an accountant. I suppose some accountants love their job so much that they'd keep on doing it until they just weren't capable anymore, but I think it's fair to say that a lot of them would happily retire at 61, especially if they had made enough money to live more than comfortably for the rest of their lives.
Musicians are different, or at least I presume they are. I know a few people who are earning a living doing something they'd do even if they weren't being paid for it. They're all in some sort of creative field: artists, musicians, chefs, writers, etc. None of them have any intention of retiring, ever. They will work as long as they are able. I know a novelist who has arthritis so severe she can no longer type at all, which has not slowed down her productivity in the least. It's just resulted in her becoming exceptionally proficient at Dragon Dictation.
I expect musicians to keep performing until their voices fail (which Strait's shows no sign of doing) or some other physical malady prevents them from being able to crawl up to the microphone or pick up a guitar. When George Jones died in April of this year at age 81, he was in the middle of a tour. So, I'm sorry, but I don't actually believe that this particular cowboy is actually riding away for good.
I've seen a few too many farewell tours that didn't turn out to be farewells. Heck, the Rolling Stones having been claiming that each tour was their last since the 1970's. I saw Fleetwood Mac in 1990 or 1991, during their "Behind the Mask" tour, which they had just announced as their last outing together. They are currently in the final shows of their 2013 world tour, and I've lost track of how many there have been in between.
Cher's 2014 "Dressed to Kill" tour is selling out stadiums all over the world. It should be a great show, based on how much I enjoyed her last farewell tour, which I caught in Miami. In November of 2002. Cher, by the way, is six years older than George Strait, and she's not even bothering to pretend that "Dressed to Kill" is her final tour.
If you google "farewell tour," you'll see names ranging from Motley Crue (average age 55) to Kiss (first farewell tour in 2002, followed by at tours in 2003, 2004, 2008, 2009-10, 2011, and 2012-13) to The Eagles (who actually named their 2005 tour"Farewell 1").
I understand that slapping the word "farewell" on a tour title probably does sell more tickets. And there may even be times when an artist sincerely intends to retire from the road.
But appreciative crowds are addictive, and giant paychecks tempting. And just plain loving what you're doing is, perhaps, the greatest incentive of all. So I understand why you keep coming back, you never-can-say-goodbye-ers out there. And I'm glad you do. Just don't tell me you aren't going to. I won't believe you, anyway.

I really thought that I wasn't going to be able to get this one what with just how limited it was, and how fast it sold out. I lucked out and my waitlist converted. Only reason it loses a star is because I wish that Hot Toys had provided fist hands for more dynamic posing options.

This is my first Predator and I couldn't be anymore happier. He is big. He has lots of stuff. And his joints are tight. Many, many different poses you can make with this figure. His dreads though look like he just got out of the bed.

I came home the other day and found six boxes of Girl Scout cookies on my kitchen counter. My mother bought about a million boxes from someone she works with and dropped a few off at my apt. I guess she couldn't eat all million her self.
I think the peanut butter cookies are my favorite.

Witchcraft 4: The Virgin Heart (1992) Movie Review
This movie is just plain terrible. While the script and story may have been interesting, the fact that the movie is so poorly lit, shot, and recorded ends up making the movie impossible to watch. I swear, most of the time you never even know what you are watching if it's a night shot, or a shot in a dark club (which is often), and the sound is so terrible that you can hardly even hear half the lines spoken by the actors. It also doesn't help that the acting is well below average, although the shoddy script and horrid adlibing really don't add much to the effect.
The movie does have a little bit of novelty. One is seeing Julie Strain towards the begining of her career. The other is seeing Sunset Thomas in one of her only non-pornographic roles. It's also interesting because I believe this movie was filmed before she had breast implants, and from what it looks like, she may be mildly pregnant. She also is very rarely naked in the film (she dies in the first ten minutes, and you see her topless corpse for two seconds).
Other than that little bit of novelty, this movie is a waste. The story could be great, I don't know, because I couldn't see or hear much of the movie. It is pretty cheesy though, and may be good for a laugh.

By Julia Hager
In her novel La Linea, Ann Jaramillo tells the story of fifteen-year-old Miguel, who leaves his home in Mexico to illegally cross the US-Mexican border. He leaves for California, where his parents and two of his sisters have lived for the past seven years. His parents left first, in order to make money for their children to cross la linea later. Miguel and his younger sister Elena thus live with their grandmother on a rancho in the small Mexican village San Jacinto. On his fifteenth birthday, Miguel receives the letter he has waited for his entire life. A letter from his father tells him to go see Don Clemente, a rich and successful immigrant smuggler. Don Clemente provides Miguel with proper instructions. Miguel's carefully planned journey seems to fail, when Elena stows away from home and follows him. When Miguel finds out, he wants to send her back home, but Elena is determined to come with him. Elena gets them into trouble in the beginning; they are discovered by the federales and sent all the way to Guatemala. There, they are robbed during the night and lose their entire possessions. However, also thanks to Elena, they do not have to go back home, because she hid some of her money that was not found by the robbers. Through her, they meet Javier, an adult who also wants to cross the border and helps the two children to get on the Mata Gente, a dangerous freight train that goes up all the way to the border. In the north, they meet el Plomero, who was paid by Don Clemente to get the kids across the border. El Plomero even accompanies them into the desert, but is shot by the border police shortly after. Javier, who is injured and feels that he is a burden for the children, leaves them during the night and probably dies in the desert. Miguel and Elena succeed in crossing the border but the novel leaves open what happens after their arrival. In the epilogue, which takes place ten years later, we learn that Elena returned to Mexico, whereas Miguel stayed in California.
The author takes the reader on a trip: It is an adventurous way from the Mexican countryside, through the desert across the US-Mexican border, into an urban American environment. But it is also a trip into the mind of a young adult who is looking for his parents' love and appreciation, who is struggling with his identity, and who needs to grow up fast and make responsible decisions for himself and his younger sister at an early age.
Critical analysis
Mexican culture is portrayed in a thorough, non-stereotypical way in La Linea. The reader learns about the traditional way, but is immediately confronted with the exception to the rule. Reflecting on his name, Miguel says "I was the firstborn, so Papá should have named me Domingo, after himself and Abuelo and Bisabuelo and Tatarabuelo [...] but he named me after the authors he admired. Those were his saints, so those were the names I got." (Jaramillo: 6) Stereotypically, Mexican society is often claimed to be male-dominated. Elena, however, is portrayed as a rebellious young girl who is not afraid to speak her mind. When Miguel tells Elena to cover up, she responds "Who are you to judge?" (14). Miguel thinks that parental authority is still important in his culture, but as a male brother, he has no authority over his female sister: "I could scold her about dishonouring the family, but I wasn't her parent, and she knew it. She wasn't about to let me tell her how she could dress." (14-5)
Miguel wants to emigrate because he feels that he cannot become the person he wants to be, in Mexico. He repeatedly dreams about being a famous Mexican soccer player and in these dreams, he is "looking down on the people. They looked back up at me [...] I didn't know who anyone was." (8) If he was rich in Mexico, he would betray his culture, family and friends. Miguel explains: "Each failure I had on the rancho was just more proof to myself that my future lay across la linea, in California. If I'd ever belonged in San Jacinto, I didn't belong now." (24) Apart from the fact that it is difficult to pursue a career in Miguel's environment, he feels that it would be viewed as disloyal towards his family and culture. The American dream includes high social mobility and Miguel is looking for this kind of self-fulfillment. As the reader learns in the epilogue, Elena returns to Mexico. She seemed more at home in Mexican culture than Miguel from the beginning: "The tomatoes that had escaped the bug attack were small and shrivelled. [...] I picked one of Elena's tomatoes, growing right next to mine. It was round, red and warm from the sun." (23)
La Linea is a novel about crossing borders. The protagonists literally cross the borders of Guatemala and the US. Crossing the Guatemalan border has no importance, because this border does not carry meaning for them. Only the American border is a symbol of hope, a better future, and reunion with their parents. However, during their strenuous trip through the desert, they do not even notice when they cross the border. "I always thought I'd know exactly the moment I crossed the border. [...] How could I not have felt something?" (96) Miguel is shocked because he confused the physical border with the symbolic border. The novel ends before the reader could see how Miguel and Elena deal with the cultural border they crossed. We only know that they came to the US without knowing anything about the culture. Elena returns to Mexico, probably because she was not happy in her new environment. The siblings also cross the border between childhood and adulthood. All of a sudden, Miguel is responsible for his little sister and should make responsible decisions. By making these decisions, he has to deal with difficult moral questions. His determination to get them across the border makes him forget about loyalty and friendship. Elena would not leave Javier behind at any point, whereas Miguel takes advantage of Javier one day and would leave him behind as soon as he becomes a burden for them. Elena's behaviour shows characteristic qualities of Mexican collectivist culture. Miguel's mentality is more goal-oriented and individualist, probably a reason why he felt more at home in America.
In the last paragraph of the book, Miguel realizes that it is not the physical borders that make the difference. He looks at himself in the mirror: "There's the same old Miguel I was in San Jacinto, just a little taller [...] On the outside, the same me. Inside, it's different. I thought I'd find the real Miguel, the one I thought I couldn't be in Mexico, once I crossed la linea. I didn't understand that there are thousands of lineas to cross in a life." (118) Even before he left his home, he had already crossed a border in his mind, by making the decision to leave. Before he leaves home, he looks at himself in the mirror: "I hardly recognized me. Somehow, it seemed my outside hadn't caught up with my inside." (35)
Ann Jaramillo succeeds in combining an adventurous plot with a sophisticated cultural message. First of all, it is easy to empathize with either Miguel or Elena because they are portrayed in a human and universal manner. Their feelings and thoughts are not culture-specific. The story raises students' awareness about the risks young children and teenagers take to make their way across the border. Especially the description of the freight train (and the fate of those who fail to jump on it in the right moment), the border militia and the life-threatening trip through the desert are tragic real life scenarios that pupils should learn about. Usually, novels about immigration and culture clash start where this novel ends. Successful integration, cultural adjustment, assimilation, all those difficult cultural issues are lying in front of Miguel and Elena at the end of the novel. In my opinion, La Linea is very suitable for the language classroom, although it should be complemented with stories of people after they crossed a border. Students from different age groups can learn or be reminded that we never stop crossing borders, and that the formation of cultural identity is a lifelong process that is different from individual to individual.

Friendly fire
The tone Christians take as they debate issues, especially over the next year, is of critical importance
THE LETTER TO THE EDITOR LAST WEEK MAY HAVE been the meanest we've ever received. The writer, unhappy that WORLD had taken gentle editorial exception to the legal strategy of Chief Justice Roy Moore in Alabama, exploded: "I want to see the look of shock on your face on That Day as He says, 'Depart from Me; I never knew you.'"
The disturbing e-mail came the same day that brought news of another bus bombing in Jerusalem, and the day before the terrible blast that killed 125 Iraqis at a mosque in Najaf. New fighting had erupted the day before in Liberia. A mass grave with perhaps 200 skeletons had been discovered in Guatemala. And then the government of North Korea said it was ready to test a nuclear bomb.
Why, I thought, can't people in other parts of the world learn to settle their differences more humanely? What's wrong with the Arabs and the Jews, the Africans, the Central Americans, and the Asians that they resort so easily to violence?
But I also read in that same morning's paper of the scheduled execution of Paul Hill, a one-time colleague in the pro-life movement and a former minister in my own denomination, in a few days for murdering an abortionist and his bodyguard in Pensacola, Fla., in 1994. Meanwhile, two Christian brothers, friends whom I highly esteem, were having at it with each other by e-mail, quarreling over whether one of them had called the position of the other an "abomination." I was receiving hour-by-hour copies of their whole debate.
It's easy, I thought, to point fingers at unbelievers and to think condescendingly how bad they are at settling their differences. It's harder to admit how bad we Christians can sometimes be at the very same assignment.
Christians, to be sure, are at a special disadvantage when it comes to settling differences. They are not relativists when it comes to the issue of truth. Christians are not people who can say cavalierly, "Don't worry. You believe it your way, and I'll believe it mine." Precisely because we believe truth to be specific, even exclusive, we Christians are forced regularly to say that other people are wrong.
Yet how we say it, and more specifically how we as Christians say it to each other, is of critical importance. There's a world of difference between soberly warning someone, "My friend, please don't forget that at the final day, God is going to tell some unsuspecting people, 'Depart from Me, for I never knew you'"-and on the other hand chortling, "I want to see the look on your face when He says that to you."
Way too much of our Christian debate these days takes on the tone of the I-want-to-see-the-look-on-your-face e-mail writer.
All this would be important in any setting, but I think things are about to become much more tense and divisive. Over the next year, evangelical Christians will tear into each other, question each other's motives, and rule each other both in and out of God's kingdom. Non-Christians will titter at our disunity and discomfort-and we will strike out at them as well.
The issue will be whether George W. Bush and the Republican Party should continue to enjoy the allegiance of the overwhelming majority of evangelical Christians. Every week, I hear more and more of this question of whether evangelicals are being taken for granted, whether the GOP treats them the same way Democrats have used the African-American community. Humor them, pick a few of them for symbolic posts, speak at their gatherings-but keep a little distance, too.
One evangelical leader, in an off-the-record setting, complained to me that "we've got virtually nothing of substance to show for having a pro-life president; the gay community has better access to the White House than we do; and every indicator is that when Mr. Bush finally gets to name a Supreme Court justice, it will be his friend Al Gonzales, who is on record as being satisfied with Roe vs. Wade. If that's what we get from an administration with evangelical leanings, what's the use?"
That is the mild version of the argument. In closed-door sessions, it gets a lot feistier, and angrier. I haven't heard anything like the man who said he wants to see the look on my face-but I've watched Christians argue issues for long enough to know how fast debates can degenerate.
The debate, mind you, is a worthy one. The White House and the rest of the GOP need to pay attention. But in the process of that discussion, why give delight and comfort to the evil one?
