OMG, funny!
That was hilarious. The guy in full Ahrims voice was REALLY funny how he said "Oh my God, noob, shut the fuck up" And how he was boiling with rage: Priceless. I'm sorry about what Buckboy said. It don't see how this copies his work. I like both Noobscape and Flashscape, and of course, the famous NewbieScape. Oh and how could I forget Rune Pals? Keep up the good work
2good2be4goten or something like that did the the voice. Look him up if you like his voice acting. If that's the wrong username, one of his flashes is also in the runescape section. A crash course in runescape.

Lifetime Route 66 navigation now available for the Samsung Wave from 30 euros
Samsung Wave sales are going very well, that much is clear.
And now Samsung has a surprise for all the people who've bought the first smartphone to be powered by their all-new Bada operating system.
It's not quite free navigation like Nokia and Google offer for some of their devices, but it can still be a pretty compelling offer.
You can now get lifetime navigation for 30 euros, powered by Route 66. You also get one-year free speed camera database updates.
The Samsung Wave ships with Route 66 preinstalled, but that's just a 30-day trial version. Now upgrading it just became a bit more desirable.
30 euros only gets you navigation in one country though. Western or Eastern Europe navigation costs 40 euros and the whole of Europe is 50 euros.
These prices are similar to what the mobile navigation market has been used to from the big mapping providers, albeit they used to give you just one-year licenses for similar amounts.
Therefore, this offer only becomes a good one if you plan to hold on to your Wave for more than a year. Though it may be hard to ignore seeing how easy it is to simply get the extra functionality out of software that is already installed on the handset.
Head to this page from your Wave to get all the details.

Muhammad Ali on death watch
The former world champion has suffered from Parkinson's since 1984
Legendary boxer Muhammad Ali is so ill he could be dead within days, his brother has warned.
Rahman Ali said the former heavyweight champion cannot speak and no longer recognises him.
Rahman fears his 71-year-old brother – known as The Greatest – may not survive the summer.
He told The Sun: 'He's in a bad way. He's very sick.
'It could be months, it could be days. I don't know if he'll last the summer. He's in God's hands.'
Ali was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 1984 but remained active for many years and made a moving appearance at the Atlanta 1996 Olympic Games where he lit the flame.
However, he was seen looking particularly thin and frail at the London 2012 Olympic opening ceremony where he was helped across the stage by wife Lonnie.
Rahman has accused his sister-in-law, who has been married to Ali for 26 years, of refusing to let the family visit the ailing champion.
Rahman, who was also a professional boxer, said he last saw his brother in July at the Sports for Peace Gala in London and is only allowed to speak to him over the phone.
The brothers, born Cassius and Rudolph Clay, grew up together in Louisville, Kentucky.

Ali's most recent public health scare was December, 2011, when the champion was taken to hospital after falling unconscious.
Emergency services were called days after Ali made a frail appearance at the funeral of fellow boxing great Joe Frazier.
He was treated for dehydration after collapsing at his 6,000 sq ft estate in Arizona.
Rahman told The Sun from his flat in Louisville that before Ali's health deteriorated, he said he was in no pain and was proud of his achievements.

Former world champion Ali last had a public health scare days after the funeral of fellow boxing great Joe Frazier in 2011
Rahman, who has suffered recurrent strokes following his own boxing career, said he feels distraught at being cut from his brother's life, who he compared to Jesus, and who he says he loves above all others.
He said: 'You know the word "infinite"? That's Ali, he's infinite. His name will last forever.'
Father-of-nine Ali wants a Martin Luther King quote on his gravestone, according to Rahman.
The quote is: ''I tried to love somebody, I did try to feed the hungry.
'I did try, in my life, to clothe those who were naked. I want you to say that I tried to love and serve humanity.' The Greatest.'
Wife Lonnie refused to comment on the claims.

text: I know that LaRon Landry is supposedly the best safety available in the upcoming draft, but I cant stop thinking that it would be a smarter decision to take Meriweather. I can say this for a few reasons. Recently The U has been churning out great prospects at two positions, the first being TE with Shockey, Winslow, and now Olsen and also at safety with Reed, then Taylor, and now Meriweather. Another reason is because of how much Meriweather reminds me of Reed. Both seem a bit undersized. Meriweather is 6'0"-195 and Reed is 5'11"-200, but they both play so much bigger. Their size and speed make them a great coverage safety, but Meriweather won Miami's "Hard Hitter" Award last year, so it obviouse that he can also bring the hat. All that being said, I wouldnt be upset with either one, especially since I dont have any measurables outside of their build and how they have played thus far, and as you always know, the combine/pro-day always plays a big part in who the top rated players are.

PHILADELPHIA -- Tuesday officially marked Doug Collins' first day as head coach of the 76ers. However, it was clear that there was much unofficial work done leading up to the light morning workout and more vigorous evening session he oversaw at Saint Joseph's University's Hagan Arena.
Few coaches do as much observational work than Collins. When the players conducted a mile run Monday morning, Collins was watching and taking mental notes.
"You can learn a lot," Collins said after the first half of training camp's two-part workout. "In that mile run ... when they get close (to the finish), are they worried about just making their time, or do they want to win?
"It was funny. They were all so nervous about running that mile. I mean, for two months they agonized over running that mile. And they were praying for rain (Monday). It was 54 degrees and drizzling, and they went out and didn't say a word.
"There was a sense of accomplishment. If you give something to work for as you're getting started, then there's a chance to say, 'Hey, we did it. Let's grow from it.'"
Among those who "did it" better than anyone were Evan Turner and Jrue Holiday, both of whom hit the tape in a shade over five minutes. According to Collins, Holiday attempted to track down Turner down the stretch, but the rookie from Ohio State showed some competitive grit and beat the second-year point guard by three seconds.
"I think that was huge," Collins said. "There was about 200 yards left and Jrue tried to make a move on him and he won. I said to our coaches, 'The best thing that happened was that he won that mile.' Because it game him a feeling of accomplishment.
"Evan's mind gets so clouded. He's so hard on himself that he gets frustrated. So I have to limit the frustration so it doesn't seep into what he's doing. (Tuesday) he was terrific in the drills."
Monday evening the coaching staff and players had dinner and Collins again took a moment to observe how his players mingled. After Collins "spoke a little bit," after dinner, the team leaders made a request.
"They basically said, 'Everybody get out of here, we as players want to get together and meet before we get started,'" Collins said. "And to me, that was positive."
When the Sixers hit the court Tuesday morning, Collins had to tweak his original plan. Because guard Willie Green underwent offseason arthroscope knee surgery, the trade that sent him and Jason Smith to New Orleans for forwards Darius Songaila and Craig Brackins needed tweaking because Green couldn't pass a physical. That meant Songaila and Brackens had to sit out the morning session, and with two less bodies available Collins decided to hold drills in the daytime and save the scrimmaging for night. It wasn't until 20 minutes remained in the morning practice that Songaila and Brackins were given word that the Sixers threw in a mild sweetener to have the deal finalized.
It's been a long four days, but it finally went through," Songaila said after watching the early workout. "I'm excited about that and joining the team ... I'm excited with what I'm seeing."
Collins' first interactions with his team were hands-on. For the entire time the media were permitted into the gym, Collins was the sole instructor, vocal and reactive. The first-team unit included Holiday, Andre Iguodala, Thad Young, Elton Brand and Spencer Hawes. In other words, Iguodala was at shooting guard and not small forward -- which Collins has called his more natural position -- while Turner watched.
"I just want to mix and match right now," Collins said. " I think Evan is going to be comfortable with Lou Williams right now. If 'Dre starts at (small forward) right now, that puts Thad and (Andres) Nocioni both on the bench to start to the game, and they are two of my better players. I can't have two of my better players on the bench to start the game."
That said, there will be plenty of opportunity for Turner to flourish. Collins said last week that he planned to rest Iguodala for most of the preseason. Those intentions started when Iguodala sat out the night scrimmage. Further opening the rotation in exhibition games is Nocioni's recovery from an offseason ankle injury.
"I'd like to get him ready by the last three exhibition games to where he can go full-bore," Collins said of Nocioni, whom he envisions as a 20-minutes-per-night player. "The next two weeks for him will be building. I don't want him to roll his ankle and be set back."
l l l
NOTES: Veteran center Tony Battie (back) sat out both practices ... Iguodala spoke glowingly of Hawes' passing ability as a big man, comparing him with Peyton Manning. No, really ... Marreese Speights might have had the most impressive time in the mile run, crossing the line in less than six-and-a-half minutes ... Sixers again convene on City Ave. today at 10 a.m., with a night session starting at 6.

Tough talk during tough times
House Democrats held a news conference Thursday to criticize Republican-sponsored budget cuts that might have been avoided or minimized if the GOP was open to some other ideas, like raising taxes or borrowing from a reserve known as the Budget Stabilization Fund.
Rep. Dan Gelber, D-Miami Beach, the House Democratic leader, was in rare form. "Their policy is tethered to a sound bite: 'We all need to live within our means,'^" Gelber thundered. "I wonder if any of them has a grandparent in a nursing home ... I don't understand what these folks are up here to fight for." Later, Gelber decried "the inhumanity that's flowing from this place," adding: "These are not things a civilized society does. It isn't fair, it isn't right, it isn't fair."
Rep. Ray Sansom, R-Destin, the House budget chairman, didn't hear Gelber's comments directly. Told of them, he said: "It's very disappointing that the minority leader who preached bipartisanship as a hallmark has turned into the most partisan and divisive minority leader I've experienced in 20 years ... He's creating animosity and divisiveness ... I've offered a hand to them. That's not like Dan. He's a great guy, personally. I think he's letting partisan politics override common sense."

GARY HIRSHBERG, the president of Stonyfield Farm, knows two ways to increase his profits. By expanding his yogurt-manufacturing capacity, he can pay back his investment in a year and keep growing. Or by installing readily available technology for energy conservation at his New Hampshire plant, he can recoup his costs in two years or less and bank the future savings till the cows come home.
Mr. Hirshberg has chosen to do both. Stonyfield, he says, will increase production 40 percent next year. By taking steps like installing efficient lights and reusing waste heat, he is now using 9 percent less energy each year per pint of yogurt, increasing his profit margin. And by investing some of those energy savings in forestry projects that trap carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, in the atmosphere, he has reduced the company's net manufacturing emissions of carbon dioxide to zero, he says.
''Forget the moral principles, forget our children, forget the flooding of South Florida, forget malaria,'' he said, ticking off reasons to fight global warming. ''We are willing to support this strictly on the economics.''
Stories like this have gripped President Clinton's attention and prompted him to promise that the transition to an economy that relies far less on carbon fuels will be essentially painless and can begin today.
''If we do it right, protecting the climate will yield not costs, but profits; not burdens, but benefits; not sacrifice, but a higher standard of living,'' Mr. Clinton said in October when he outlined the Administration's proposals for fighting climate change. ''Energy savings give better service at lower cost with higher profit.''Continue reading the main story
Traditional economists and big industry groups say that unless energy prices go up sharply, companies and consumers will be slow to adopt new technologies, even though the investments may pay off at today's energy prices. But there is also a substantial group of analysts who say that a profitable shift to greener energy pastures is under way and will accelerate if the Government adopts policies that promote conservation.
If prices for the carbon in fossil fuels rise in the future as a result of the Administration's proposals, this group says, that will only expand opportunities faster, tamping down any economic damage.
The Administration's proposal would limit emissions of carbon dioxide by issuing emissions permits that companies could buy and sell. Companies that achieved emissions reductions cheaply could profitably sell their excess permits to companies with higher emission-control costs. The effect would be to put a price on the carbon in fuel, a price that would reflect the costs of controlling emissions. Some forecasters predict that under this approach, the price of the carbon in fuel would rise by $100 a ton or more, making oil, coal and gas much more expensive; others say innovations would keep the cost much lower.
''Somewhere between $25 and $50 a ton of carbon, new technologies become so unbelievably attractive that you cap the price,'' said Joseph J. Romm, the Energy Department's top official in charge of renewable energy and efficiency programs. ''At $50 per ton of carbon, people will be installing windmills as fast as the manufacturers can make them.''
As the prices of fossil fuels rise, he explained, it makes less sense to operate coal-fired power plants, which would be swept away by cheaper ways to make electricity.
''We are not betting on one technology,'' Mr. Romm said. ''It is a hundred technologies, each one of which can do its share.''
AMORY Lovins, the co-founder of the Rocky Mountain Institute, a research group that is a leading proponent of energy conservation, said, ''There are huge opportunities for profitably improving the energy of using energy, but they remain unbought because of 30-odd specific types of roadblocks that keep the market from working properly. Turning each of those obstacles into a business opportunity can save a lot of energy quickly even at present energy prices.''
All manner of gizmos for home, office and factory are either on the drawing board or on the shelf to help conserve energy or to produce it more cleanly in the 21st century, the optimists say. The list includes photovoltaics, fuel cells, biomass fuels, fluorescent lights, insulating windows, efficient cars, stingy thermostats and miserly appliances.
But doubters, especially traditional economists, say it is well documented that people neglect to invest in devices that save energy and pay for themselves at current energy prices. In their daily lives, many people forgo simple conservation measures that offer quick savings, like turning a water heater's temperature to 125 degrees from 150 degrees.
''If only 20 percent of the homes in the U.S. used high-efficiency washers,'' said John Tomlinson, the project manager of a study done by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory on Maytag's new washing machines, ''we would save enough energy to heat 800,000 homes.''
But those washing machines can cost $900, and many consumers hesitate to shell out that much money to save money later.
On the other side of the energy business, where power is produced and sold, the optimists predict that lots of clean technology is just over the horizon.
An analysis of research goals done by the President's Committee of Advisers on Science and Technology optimistically suggested in November that wind-power farms in the Great Plains could ''plausibly'' export electricity all over the country at a competitive price by 2030.
One reasonable target, the report suggested, would be to replace old coal-fired power plants with windmills. The plants that produce nearly a third of American carbon dioxide emissions will be ready for retirement in the next few decades. If wind power production grows about 33 percent annually from now until then, the switch to carbon-free electricity would be well under way by then.
''This is a very rapid growth rate, but is less than that of the U.S. nuclear industry from 1957 to 1977,'' the report noted.Continue reading the main story

Thanks to Panos, I've found out about an interesting "blog marketing" campaign carried out by Toyota in Greece. I'm glad to post about it since it extends the coverage on online marketing in Europe, but also because Panos shared quite a lot of numbers and insights, which are not so common to find and share…. For the launch of their new hatchback model, the Auris, Toyota Hellas wanted a digital campaign that would promote the new car's interior design and the feel drivers get when sitting inside the Auris' modern "cockpit". The campaign needed to actively engage consumers with the brand, to generate leads and "test-drive" requests. OgilvyOne Athens decided to think "Web 2.0″ and find a way to invite consumers to do most of the talking and promoting. So Greek bloggers were invited to test-drive the car for a week if they would post their findings on their respective blogs, which would also be collected into a central blog, at http://www.aurisblog.gr. At the same time, a banner campaign invited the general public to request a test-drive, which could also win them a 4-star hotel weekend in Greece with of course the Auris at their disposal.

Cedar Hill win gives D-FW sweep of 5A, 4A titles - for second time
ARLINGTON — The Dallas-Fort Worth area is still the only region of the state to sweep the top four UIL football crowns.
And now local teams have done it twice.
Cedar Hill capped a proud weekend for local schools with a 34-24 win over Katy in the Class 5A Division II title game late Saturday at AT&T Stadium.
Allen (5A Division I) and Aledo (4A Division II) won titles earlier Saturday, and Denton Guyer won the 4A Division I title Friday night.
The four teams matched the local sweep of 2005, when Euless Trinity, Southlake Carroll, Highland Park and Hebron won championships.
Since then, local teams hadn't won more than two of the top four UIL championships.
Local teams finished with eight state championships overall. Five teams won UIL titles, including Argyle in 3A Division II. Three private schools also won championships: Fort Worth Nolan and First Baptist in TAPPS and Fort Worth All Saints in SPC, which includes schools from Oklahoma.
21-point swing: Cedar Hill led 10-0 before Katy scored three touchdowns in the span of 2:38 late in the second quarter. Katy started the streak with a 66-yard touchdown run by Rodney Anderson with 3:22 left, and then Cedar Hill fumbled the ball away on its next two possessions.
The second fumble was the most costly, as Katy's JoVanni Stewart scooped it up and raced 77 yards for a touchdown to give Katy a 21-10 halftime lead.
"We went into halftime and we said we've been here before," Cedar Hill coach Joey McGuire said. "We don't make anything easy. That's just not our MO as a team. We make everything hard."
Katy then made it hard on itself in the fourth quarter by losing two fumbles and mishandling a snap on a punt.
Cedar Hill fumbled four times in the first half, losing two. The Longhorns were more sure-handed in the second half to avenge last year's 35-24 loss to Katy in the 5A Division II title game.
Lodge gets rolling: Cedar Hill star receiver DaMarkus Lodge only touched the ball three times in the first half, — twice on short passes and once on a 42-yard run from a direct snap. but the junior was key to the Longhorns' comeback in the second half.
On a fourth-and-2 late in the third quarter, Lodge ran 62 yards on a direct snap to cut Katy's lead to 24-16. He later caught a 4-yard touchdown pass from Justin McMillan to give Cedar Hill the lead back for good with 6:02 left.
Lodge finished the season with 22 touchdown receptions, the most in the Dallas area. He was named the game's offensive MVP.

"What do you mean what was I doing streaking?" DMX said to a TMZ representative at Los Angeles International Airport a/k/a LAX yesterday. "I've got a big-ass dick and I like to show it."
DMX then offers an additional explanation. "It was a dare," he says. "It was a dare."
The latter explanation jibes with a statement released earlier this month by DMX's publicist, which said that the incident was nothing more than "a playful dare between friends."
DMX's streaking was caught on video thanks to a security camera placed in one of the hotel's hallways. In the 30-second video, DMX is seen walking the halls in a pair of boxers. He later enters another hall, takes off his boxers and then proceeds to streak his way past what appears to be a hotel employee.
The statement released on the emcee's behalf also says that DMX and his companions were unaware of the security camera present in the hotel hallway.
In the video from LAX yesterday, TMZ also asked DMX what his parole officer thought of his streaking. The rapper says that he does not have a parole officer.
DMX then takes a piece of paper from the TMZ reporter. The rapper says that the TMZ rep should be embarrassed because his handwriting looks like chicken scratch.
DMX reads one of the questions written on the paper, which asks him to explain how hard it is to put on socks with an electronic monitoring ankle bracelet. DMX has been arrested several times this year on charges that include driving under the influence and driving without a license. DMX also served seven months at an Arizona State Prison mental health unit from 2010 to 2011 after violating his probation.
"That's a good question," DMX says to TMZ. "You've got to work the sock under the ankle bracelet."
DMX was likely flying in to Los Angeles in order to make an appearance on the talk show of Dr. Phil. The interview is scheduled to be taped tomorrow (September 16) and will discuss DMX's relationship with God, among other topics, according to allhiphop.com.

The St. Kjeld Climate District
Water towers, green roofs, urban gardens and canals will transform this old working-class area into Copenhagen's very first "climate district"
At Outer Østerbro there is an area, through which many Copenhageners only seldom pass: the Saint Kjeld district. The wide tarmac streets, big brick buildings and ancient shop signs refer back to an age when this was a real working-class neighbourhood.
But soon a major makeover will provide the streets around Saint Kjeld Square with a completely new identity. It will become Copenhagen's very first "climate district".
"IMAGINE LISTENING TO the trickle of water and the chirping of birds in your neighbourhood…"
- that's what you hear on the St. Kjeld District's new website: klimakvarter.dk, and that is the actual intention at the heart of Tredje Natur's proposal. In December 2011 the architectural practice, Tredje Natur were awarded the task of developing a visionary plan to transform this district's streets and urban spaces into a green and fertile environment.
The goal is to give this old neighbourhood a new identity with green streets, gardens with flowers, rich wildlife and water channels.
The website klimakvarter.dk acts both as an information portal and a platform for involving citizens. Residents can sign up for events, where they can learn about urban farming, green roofs for bicycle sheds and other climate-friendly initiatives, which the residents themselves can instigate in the neighbourhood.
On the website's calendar, residents can also follow the progress of the various public meetings being held. By actually attending the meetings they can be part of the important decision-making process, which will affect the future of the area.
In this way the residents of the St. Kjeld District are becoming personally responsible for the neighbourhood's new green identity. There will also be street-level urban gardens, which the residents themselves can take care of.
So the area's new green identity will also give the neighbourhood a social lift. Residents working together on the various green initiatives will improve the environment, not only on a climate level, but also on a social level.
In recent years Copenhagen has experienced significantly more rain, and the heavy rainfall has placed enormous pressure on the drainage system. The St. Kjeld Climate District will incorporate street-level solutions, which will channel water away from the neighbourhood. At the same time a solution to a problem can also become a stream for this green urban space, for the benefit of the area and its residents.
In concrete terms, cycle lanes will be constructed, which will also serve as rainwater outlets. In addition, water towers, green roofs, green gardens and channels will redirect the water away from the neighbourhood and towards Nordhavnen ("the North Harbour"), making the streets more fertile and creating greater biodiversity in the city.
"The Climate District projects show how, in one fell swoop, we can create beautiful, green streets and urban spaces, at the same time creating an effective technical solution to channel rainwater away from our streets and out to the harbour - instead of down into our basements. This is architecture, which integrates the technical and the aesthetic in a totally new and very exciting way." [Tina Saaby. City architect. Copenhagen]
The St. Kjeld District project is a major one, and incorporates many different initiatives. A couple of the major transformations are described here:
Narrower roads:
Tredje Natur have worked out that the roads surrounding the bigger areas can be 20% narrower. Right now the streets in the neighbourhood are extraordinarily wide. So they have been awarded a space of 50,000 m2 to convert into their green urban space.
St Kjeld Square:
The Square, which right now is an excessively wide roundabout, will be transformed into the green heart of the neighbourhood. On hot summer days a gigantic ring will emit a gentle spray of rain, and a wide variety of plant species will create an attractive landscape all year round on the gently undulating plot.
Tåsinge Square:
Today Tåsinge Square is a large area of tarmac, overwhelmed by traffic. The plan for urban renewal is to close off the traffic in Langøgade, thus creating a new, sizeable, green space with room for cafés and cultural life. The final decision regarding layout will be made in conjunction with residents.

To try a dose of alternatives, consider Aberdeen Diversified Alternatives (GASIX), which invests in a portfolio of about 15 mutual funds. The Aberdeen managers aim to provide protection in downturns and deliver some gains in bull markets. Most often the approach has worked. During the past five years, Aberdeen returned 13.5% annually and ranked as the top-performing multialternative fund. The Aberdeen portfolio managers have 9.9% of their assets in MainStay Marketfield. Other holdings include AQR Managed Futures (AQMIX) and Arbitrage Event-Driven (AEDNX).
Among the steadiest alternative funds is Calamos Market Neutral Income (CVSIX). It is focused on income and capital preservation. The fund has delivered a five-year annualized return of 7.13%, according to Morningstar.
Calamos may be particularly appealing for investors who seek to diversify bond portfolios. Bonds tend to sink in periods of rising rates. But the Calamos strategy can stay in the black during most market environments. "Investors come to us because they do not want surprises," says Calamos portfolio manager Chris Hartman.
Calamos invests part of its assets in a strategy known as convertible arbitrage. To implement the approach, the managers first buy convertibles, bond-like instruments that can be converted to stocks. Then the managers sell short the stocks of the convertible issuers. If the stocks fall, the convertibles could suffer losses. But the fund can stay in the black because the short sales should generate profits. If stocks rise, the convertibles will climb enough to compensate for the short positions, which should generate losses. The approach sank into the red when convertibles collapsed in the turmoil of 2008. But since then, the Calamos fund has delivered consistent returns.
At the time of publication, the author held no positions in any of the stocks mentioned.

Bills finish four-year, guaranteed deal with Dareus
Published: July 29th, 2011 | Tags: Marcell Dareus, Buffalo Bills
The Buffalo Bills signed DT Marcell Dareus, the third overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, to a fully guaranteed four-year, $20.4 million contract, according to a league source.
The rookie contracts are now falling into place, as the Broncos signed No. 2 pick Von Miller Thursday and the Panthers are very close on a four-year deal with top overall pick Cam Newton. I expect that to get done Friday morning.
After the signing of Dareus, 10 first-round picks have now signed or agreed to terms.

Outside's "Best Places to Work" project celebrates the innovative companies setting a new standard for a healthy work-life balance. The list was compiled with the help of the Outdoor Industry Association and Best Companies Group. The yearlong selection process began with an outreach effort that identified a wide range of non-profit and for-profit organizations with at least 15 employees working in an office in the United States. Participating companies were sent confidential employee-satisfaction surveys and employer-questionnaires to collect information about benefits, compensation, policies, job satisfaction, environmental initiatives, and community outreach programs. The experts at the Best Companies Group then analyzed the results and selected the companies that best enable employees to pursue active lifestyles while also supporting their social and environmental contributions.
"Osprey has been an independently owned and operated company from the get go, and we take pride in doing things differently. We strive to make this work-life balance a priority for our employees and to give back to our community," said Erik Wegner, Osprey director of human resources. "We're so proud to be recognized for these efforts for the fifth year in a row."

Meaty, Beaty, Big and Bouncy
More than a decade has gone by since I first saw Meat Beat Manifesto in a charmingly gritty warehouse in Deep Ellum in Dallas, but the early Meat Beat tracks still sound as fresh, funky and energizing as ever. Some of the band's fans also behave better than they used to. After being rammed and bruised by slam dancers in Deep Ellum, I was relieved to see a few no-slam-dancing circles when I caught Meat Beat last June at the Metro, a gorgeous, high-ceilinged venue in Chicago with a clean, killer sound system.
Although the Meat Beat lineup has changed over the years, Jack Dangers has remained constant as the band's creative, innovative songwriter and vocalist. The first Meat Beat songs featured bizarre spoken-word samples, urgent, aggressive breakbeats and politically charged lyrics urging fans to be active, vocal, independent thinkers. However, a lot of the band's newer, more downtempo songs from the recent At The Center lack lyrics entirely but still impress with a soothing blend of electronic music, sexy jazz and smooth, pretty instrumental layers.
After touring last year, Meat Beat is now back in the USA and will perform on February 17 at the Engine Room. This time around, the lineup consists of Dangers and Mark Pistel on samples and laptops, Lynn Farmer on drums, and Ben Stokes doing video presentations. Dangers, talking by telephone from his home studio just north of San Francisco, recalls that the crowds at early Meat Beat shows in Dallas and Houston were some of the roughest they've ever played to. He also remembers when the band had to stop playing at a Dallas show because someone got injured at the front of the stage.
Meat Beat Manifesto
The Engine Room, 1515 Pease, 713-654-7846
Friday, February 17
"The shows in Dallas and Houston were the most -- they were out of control," Dangers says in his thick British accent. "They were the worst places for stage-diving. That was, like, back in the early '90s."

Talking about the audiences at last year's shows, Dangers observes, "I think people have grown up a bit." The old-school fans came out, but there were young people too. As Dangers observes, "It does seem that people who like Meat Beat Manifesto are in it for the long run."
Back to the 2005 Metro show in Chicago: People started cheering and clapping from the first few seconds of the intros of favorite tracks, whether it was the sexy, melodic opening that draws you into "Hello Teenage America" or the trippy-sounding "it's in my brain now" sample that builds up to the dark, stomping beats of "Helter Skelter."
When MBM rolls through Houston, fans will be able to buy CDs of that June '05 Metro show. Dangers says, "It turned out to be the best performance out of the shows we recorded, so, yeah, everything sort of came together that night. That's a good venue as well. I've always liked playing at the Metro."
A new Meat Beat track called "Suicide" (with Dangers on vocals for a change) appears on the soundtrack album to Underworld: Evolution. And Liam Howlett of Prodigy chose Meat Beat's "Radio Babylon" as one of the tracks for his Back to Mine compilation, which is being released this month in the U.K.
Dangers, who started making music in Swindon, England, moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1994 and has remained there ever since.
Meat Beat will play a mix of old and new songs this time out, but Dangers says he's been working on creating different versions of older tunes. "The program we use is Live by Ableton which lets us change things a bit every show, and I like that."
Although Meat Beat's music tends to defy categorization, many people consider the group's early stuff, with its funky breakbeats and rapid-fire rhythms, to be the precursor of drum 'n' bass. Dangers did push musical boundaries on the RUOK? album when he collaborated with ambient guru Alex Paterson and turntablist Z-Trip, who incorporated some sick scratching and blending into the overall MBM framework. The result is a hypnotic blend of music styles, from abstract and experimental to percussion-heavy trip-hop to some quirky, minimal stuff.
Part of the charm of many older Meat Beat tracks is that they feature satisfying, thundering bass that feels like it's rearranging your innards. One unfortunate fellow attended a Meat Beat show with his jaw wired shut -- the result of a boxing fight -- and had to leave because reverberations were making it vibrate like crazy. The volume at another show was so loud that the mega-low bass resulted in fans' experiencing spontaneous diarrhea en masse...at least according to Meat Beat's Web site. Talk about sonic warfare!
Guess I'm lucky to have gotten out of the Deep Ellum show with only a few bruises.

Summerfest came to an end this weekend with a weeklong heat wave that crept near 100 degrees and kept overall attendance under the 1 million music fans expected to come through the turnstiles.
But before the gates shut and the workmen started cleaning up the Henry Maier Festival Grounds along Milwaukee's lakefront, two big time acts from the previous decade took to separate stages to wrap up The Big Gig.
Cake trod the boards of the the Miller Lite Oasis stage as dusk fell over the park. One of the most unique and creative band of the previous decade, lead singer John McCrea led a 17 song set featuring an overview of the band's eclectic history. Highlighted by McCrea's mix of subtle country-inspired crooning and C.W. McCall-ish white man's rap, Cake put its odd mix of guitar's percussion, brass and electronica to work.
While more recent hits like "Sick of You" jazzed up the SRO crowd, their fans blew the overhang off of the Oasis stage when they closed out their show with "Never There" before rolling out "The Distance" for their encore.
Not too far away, the recently reunited hard rock act Bush closed out the performances on the U.S. Cellular Connection Stage.
When frontman Gavin Rossdale tried to call the band back together, last year only drummer Robin Goodridge answered the summons was game. Guitarist Nigel Pulsford and bass player Dave Parsons passed, reportedly deciding to spend time with their families rather than head out on the road.
Rossdale replaced both men with Chris Traynor and Corey Britz, respectively – and the new faces easily match the energy and reckless abandon of the original four man lineup. The lead singer is a bouncing maniac during most of the band's performance – playing his guitar with body contortions worthy of Nigel Tufnel.
While the band's post-reunion tunes appealed mostly to the group's diehard fans, Bush didn't disappoint the assembled throng, trotting out past hits like "Come Down" and a cover of The Beatles' "Come Together."
As night fell, the punk-inspired energy of Bush gave way to the quaffed classic stylings of Rock n' Roll Hall of Famer Neil Diamond on the festival's mainstage to close out the world's largest free outdoor music festival.
It made for a bizarre mix, but that's what Summerfest is all about – free music for everybody.
While searing, muggy heat continued to roast the city, fans still packed the grounds to catch Death Cab for Cutie at the Harley-Davidson Roadhouse and the Avett Brothers on the BMO Harris Pavilion stage.
Death Cab for Cute is an unusual fit for a big festival like Summerfest. If you can imagine the venue, the festival park is sprawling and loud – filled with foaming beer and wafting smells of roasting meat. It's a big, jovial vibe. But Death Cab's subtly mild, almost melancholy sound flows in the face of that energy.
With Ben Gebbard taking the lead on song's like "I Will Follow You into the Dark," Home Is a Fire" and "Crooked Teeth" highlighting the set, you might think such a downbeat set might turn off the festival crowd. But, fans were out in force for Death Cab's organ and piano heavy, but guitar light sound. And it doesn't hurt that – while most Summerfest folk choose booze and suds as their libation of choice – a bunch of Death Cab for Cutie fans sparked up a friendly herb to fully engage the mellow.
While Death Cab for Cutie rolled out their long 20 song set, they managed to transform their Harley stage into an intimate musical oasis set aside from the joyful madness of the surround fest.
As though some part of a downbeat musical conspiracy, I expected The Avett Brothers might play a similarly moody set over at the BMO stage. But, while the group had a minor art hit with the mournful "I and Love and You," drove a powerful, energetic and crowd-pleasing show highlighted by "Laundry Room" and "I Killed Sally's Lover."
I found out from one the band's more devoted fans in attendance that the group is a local favorite as Scott and Seth Avett play Milwaukee frequently in the last couple of years. So, Summerfest was a natural stop for the band as it promotes its upcoming album, "The Carpenter." In fact, before they wrapped up their well-paced set, their fans were calling for the emerging band to conquer the festival's mainstage next year.

WORTHINGTON -- The last time the Minnesota West men's basketball team eclipsed the century mark as a team was December of 2005. That is, until Wednesday night. The Bluejays shot 58 percent from the field to earn their second MCCC Southern Division victory of the season with a 113-78 decision over a depleted Riverland team in a MCCC Southern Division men's basketball game. "This season, we've been snake bitten more than you could possibly imagine," Riverland head coach Dan Swift said. "You have to give credit. They knew our weakness and attacked our weakness.
FULDA -- For Fulda's Brooke Kuehne and Sam Raddle, Tuesday's senior night was only fitting. "It's really sad for Brooke and I," Raddle said. "We've played here for so many years and now it's our last game.
ELLSWORTH -- Ellsworth's Cody Schilling surveyed the defense, stepped back and hit a 3-pointer -- something he's done hundreds of times before. "I was actually going to come off a screen, and they sent three guys to that side of the floor, and coach just yelled 'let it fly.' So, I kind of crossed over, pulled up and shot it," Schilling said. "Right after it left my hands, I knew it was good." But this shot from the left wing wasn't like the others he's made during his career.
WORTHINGTON -- For someone who has come a long ways on and off the court, Minnesota West basketball standout Eddie Marrs doesn't have to look far to know who he's playing for. In fact, her portrait inked on his left arm is a constant reminder. "No matter how far away I am from my mom, I feel like she's always by my side," Marrs said.
ADRIAN -- If someone would have told Adrian head coach Randy Strand that his team would open the game on a 30-8 run, he probably wouldn't have believed it. "We were telling the girls that it was going to be a one possession game all the way," Strand said. "What you do on defense each trip down or what you do on offense each trip down is going to be important.
WORTHINGTON -- With only a few players healthy, the Worthington girls' basketball team looks more like a M*A*S*H unit than the No. 7 class 3A team in the state. "We got the water jugs tonight; we're trying to get away from the water bottles," Worthington head coach Eric Lindner said. "We don't know if we're spreading it with kids drinking off each other's water bottles.
EDGERTON -- For Southwest Star Concept, it was a bad night to run into Southwest Christian's best defensive effort. "This was probably one of our better defensive games that we've played all year," SWC head coach Jamie Pap said. "Defensively, we are finally coming around. It took us a while to get going this year, but we're getting real close." SWC (8-1, 10-3) used solid defense and a deadly perimeter game to defeat SSC, 79-44, in a Red Rock Conference boys' basketball contest Monday. "We're progressing real well," Pap said. "About two weeks ago I was a little frustrated.
FULDA -- With a 0-4 start, and trailing by eight at halftime against Southwest Christian earlier this season, the Fulda Raiders looked like a distant image of last year's Class A state champions. "We were 0-4 and we played probably the worst half of basketball against Southwest Christian, so it was almost 0-4 and a half," Fulda head coach Gregg Slaathaug said.
WINDOM -- Coming into Thursday's girls' Southwest Conference basketball contest, Worthington and Windom were both on the opposite ends of a 30-point game. Windom (1-6, 4-12) suffered a 31-point defeat at the hands of Adrian in its last game, while Worthington (8-0, 15-2) defeated Luverne by 33 points. Thursday night, the story was the same as the Trojans came away with another 33-point victory, 89-56. "We missed a lot of shots in the first half, and I thought that we needed to take a little time to square up," Worthington head coach Eric Lindner said.
WORTHINGTON -- Before the Worthington Trojan girls' basket team took to the court Tuesday to face Southwest Conference foe Luverne, head coach Eric Lindner had a few words for his team. "He said that we need to pick up the intensity and that in order to get where we want to be in the future, we have to start working hard on the floor early," Kaitlin Gerber said. The Trojans scored early and often in a 94-61 victory over the Cardinals. "I thought that we played with much better intensity," Lindner said. "We didn't dig that hole like we've been doing.

Support the 9th Edition of the Festival ImigrArte
The ImigrArte Festival was born in 2007, inside the association Solidariedade Imigrante a non-profit organisation of public utility, based in Lisbon, Portugal.
With Festival ImigrArte, we seek to highlight the social and the cultural potential of the immigrants by promoting dialogs between the various foreign communities as well between Portuguese citizens and foreign citizens.
With this initiative we build bridges between the various foreign communities; enhance the initiative of the descendants and promote the art and culture produced by immigrants and their descendants. In the organization of the festival, done in partnership with numerous immigrant associations, the artists and the activists are the immigrants themselves and they are the ones who make the decisions, work out the program and generate the entire event.
Organized entirely by volunteers, this event is considered today as an important social and cultural reference of Lisbon. It involves the voluntary participation of 250 artists from more than 25 different countries and it is divided into areas such as music, dance, theatre, cinema, visual arts, photography, literature and crafts.
The program also contains the presence of 30 immigrant associations, various initiatives, international gastronomy, debates, conferences and workshops. About 26 shows and 16 parallel activities are presented and the festival reaches around 3500 visitors.
The entrance is free for all activities and shows.
The ImigrArte has relied on logistical support and partnerships with the Museu do Oriente Foundation, the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, the Lisbon City Council, the Santa Casa da Misericordia of Lisboa, EGEAC, RTP 2, SIC, RTPÁfrica, TVGlobo, RDPÁfrica, Antena 1, the newspaper Slovo, the magazine Brasileirinho and several online sites and agendas.
This year, the 9th edition of the festival takes place on November 14h and 15th at the Ateneu Comercial de Lisboa. The organization team is trying, trough the crowdfunding, to raise the funds needed to help to pay for the rental of the local, for the rental of sound equipment and the lights and for the payment of the technicians. These expenses represent 40% of the festival's budget. The remaining 60% are covered by Solidariedade Imigrante. The fundraising of this campaign will also help us by achieving better conditions for all participants.

USF beats Bowling Green, 87-84 in triple overtime thriller
By JOE SMITH
Times Staff Writer
TAMPA – Before Friday, USF men's basketball coach Stan Heath had never been involved in a triple overtime game.
Then again, Heath had never been part of a night like this.
The Bulls overcame a seven-point deficit with a minute left in regulation - and a 22-minute power outage in overtime - to pull out a 87-84, triple overtime thriller over Bowling Green at the Sun Dome. It was the second longest game in the program's history.
"It was incredible, man," said Victor Rudd. "You love being a part of a night like that."
Rudd was the star of the show, USF's Mr. Clutch, hitting the game-tying 3-pointer to force the first overtime, another tying three to force a third, and a three-point play with 13 seconds left that gave USF the lead for good.
"Terrific," Heath said of Rudd, who had a game-high 29 points. "He was very, very special tonight."
But Rudd may not have had the final chance to be a hero had it not been for a game-saving block by guard Martino Brock. With 18 seconds left in triple OT and Bowling Green up two, guard Jordon Crawford threw a long pass over the USF press to Anthony Henderson, who was streaking in alone for a wide-open layup.
However, Brock - easily 20 yards behind near midcourt - somehow sprinted back and swatted Henderson's attempt.
"That was the moment," Heath said. "Defensive play of the year."
Brock had been brilliant in the first half, when he scored 13 of his season-high 18 points. Heath thought the Bulls had it put away when they were up 11 points with 12 minutes left.
But Rudd said the Bulls (7-3) let their guard down, and it nearly cost them. Crawford, the Falcons top scorer who was held without a point the first half, led their big comeback, racked up 15 in the final 15 minutes of regulation (and 27 overall). "He's a dynamic player" Bowling Green coach Louis Orr said.
But Rudd scored six in a last-minute flurry, including a game-tying 3-pointer with 3.8 seconds left to send it to overtime. The Bulls controlled the first overtime session, leading by four with 21.6 seconds left. However, after the 21-minute power outage, Juwanza Poland and Anthony Collins each missed the front end 1-and-1 free throw attempts.
"That was the ultimate freeze," Heath quipped.
And, each time, Crawford raced down the court to score a layup, sending it to a double OT.
It was Rudd, again, who came up clutch in the second overtime, hitting a 3-pointer with 27 seconds left to tie it and force a third session. It was the first-ever triple overtime game for USF, its longest since a four-overtime game against New Orleans Feb. 8, 1979.
"After the lights went out, it was crazy after that," Rudd said. "It was a crazy night, but we got the win."

Developing: In arguably one of the wildest USF men's basketball games in recent memory, the Bulls pulled off am 87-84 triple-overtime victory over Bowling Green in front of a stunned Sun Dome crowd Friday night.
"It was incredible," Victor Rudd said. "It was a crazy night."
The Bulls (7-3), who overcame a seven-point defecit with a minute left in regulation, also battled back in the second and third overtime sessions. And, oh by the way, the lights went out at the dome, causing a 21-minute delay in the first overtime.
Victor Rudd was the star of the game, delivering the game-tying 3-pointer to force overtime, the game-tying 3-pointer in the final minute of the second overtime, and the go-ahead three-point play with 13 seconds left in the third session that proved the difference.

LTE to account for 4% of world's mobile connections by 2015
300 million LTE connections forecast by 2015 led by growth in major Asia Pacific markets
The introduction of LTE networks reflects the move the telecoms industry is making towards delivering cloud-based and converged services, and an improved user experience. Our latest forecasts show that LTE is being adopted by operators across the globe, but the pace of migration will be faster in countries where mobile broadband is on the political agenda and favourable regulatory developments are taking place – especially with regards to spectrum. However, creating a profitable ecosystem around the new networks will take time and it may take a few years for LTE services to live up to the hype. Subscriber uptake of LTE is initially being driven by demand for data-centric mobile broadband services, typically accessed via USB dongles and embedded devices for which operators will charge a premium. We predict that the introduction of voice over LTE (VoLTE) by around 2012 will mark the 'tipping point' for mass-market LTE handset volume shipments, which will accelerate LTE connections growth. However, premium price points and limited availability means that we will see low LTE handset penetration in the short term.

Remember Du'a public seminar in London
Organization of Women's Freedom in Iraq is hosting a seminar to remember Du'a Khalil Aswad who was stoned to death in Iraqi Kurdistan in April 2007
This event is sponsored by the Centre for Gender Studies (School of Oriental and African Studies SOAS-university of London)
Date: 25 March 2010Time: 5:00 PM
Finishes: 25 March 2010Time: 7:00 PM
Venue: Russell Square: College Buildings Room: G52

Heather Harvey will be chairing the meeting.
On the third anniversary of the stoning of Du'a Khalil Aswad to death in public and in condemnation of all forms of violence against women join us in this public seminar to remember Du'a and all women around the world who were killed in so- called honour killings.
On the 7th of April 2007 Du'a Khalil Aswad was brutally stoned to death in front of 2000 men, the killers included her uncle and some of her closest relatives in the Town of Bashiqa. The crime was a so-called 'honour' killing; the event outraged the world, as the perpetrators filmed the carnage on their mobile phones, which footage found its way onto the internet, where the world could see the murderous delight of the crowd and the cooperation of security forces. Despite a worldwide outrage at this act, and national protests to pressurize both Iraqi and Kurdistan Regional Governments to bring killers to justice, after one year of this crime, they were released and an amount of 4 million Iraqi dinars were paid to Du'a Khalils family to keep them silent about it.

Did you guys see this?
Clearly, the man loves his acrylic a bit too much, but he's pretty good!
Did you guys see this?
Clearly, the man loves his acrylic a bit too much, but he's pretty good!
Great fun and most are quite pretty.
I wonder how well they work?
Whoa, that guy rocks! Sure you might argue about the look, but most "big boy" VPI 'table use all acrylic too, just solid black. Very nice work though. I just made newer version of my Well-Tempered turntable (for a number of reasons) and I can tell you it's a lot of work. Fun and educational though.
dbowker - you should post some pics of your rebuilt Well Tempered!
As requested, I posted some of my Well-Tempered mods on the DIY section of the Stereophile Galleries page. Pictures include a platter mod, the new plinth I made, and the WTT arm I re-wired last year with Cardas tone-arm wire. Enjoy, and feel free to ask questions if you want.
Your WTT is a BEAUTY! So nice looking. Bet it sounds as good as it looks... I always get envious of people who are so good at DiY projects.
Thanks Man! I have to admit, it's pretty satisfying to be able to say "I made that!" Check out my DIY Pro-Ac Response 2.5s on the Home Audio systems pages- I think maybe the third page down. I also built the stereo cabinet the system resides in. I have a background in furniture design and a degree in industrial design, which is how I got into all this...
That's pretty intense, dbowker. You're really talented! Maybe a couple years later, I might beg you to make me a plinth for something like a Garrard 301... for a fee, of course.

Alistar Build Guide

I still play Alistar the most. I like redesigning my build each time I think it's possible to improve. It's been a long time since I updated and that's why I resetted my changelog. Please feel free to give comments or ask questions. I like improving myself and others.
Many people tell me I play Alistar different from other people or aggresive Alistar. So I thought livestreaming would be the perfect way to show people why and how I play this build. The first video I created for this guide isn't that great, at the end of the game I didn't have very much of my build and still 3500g left. But it is a start and you probably will enjoy what you see.
I uploaded my second movie (just after the other one) and I like to show you this one. It's not going so well, but I think this is when I could show you the most. We win after a surprising surrender, but we defended very well. I think the turnaround is around 30 minutes. We start showing them what we've got and what we can do if we work as a team. I made good use of my ultimate by cleansing galio's ultimate twice in a teambattle (makes all effects on other teammates disappear as well) and once by cleansing leblanc's stun (yi approaches and I surprise stun him immidiately after I got stunned).
Changed 08-11-2010

Alistar is forbidden for solo-ers
If you really want to kill you shouldn't take Alistar. I am not gonna repeat how to play Alistar, I think it is pretty obvious to be a helper and creater of assists instead of being the one with a high K/D-ratio. I write this guide for an up to date masterypage, runes and items. I think Alistar is not played as much as it should and maybe this guide could make you understand why.
[spell=Colossal Strength] This makes u a perfect candidate for destroying towers, use this in combination with armor penetration and unbreakable will. Pulverize Best skill for alistar, use it well and make whole teams get stunned for two seconds. we won't be upgrading this skill until level 10 because of the manacost. Headbutt The only way to kill, Use it to put squisy characters in the center of your team. It's the only way to kill. Use it for stealing, u give them the kills back with your stuns. Triumphant Roar Nice healing power if you have enough mana. Heal minions to push with a big team of minions. Unbreakable Will The ultimate which makes you stronger and makes you allmost invincible.
Masteries + Runes
The masteries I use are 21 on utility, this is for the manaregeneration, cooldown and movementspeed. the other 9 I put in offense, this is for cooldown and a bit more power. link: Masterypage
Runes Ghostblade Build
9 times: Greater Mark of Desolation
9 times: Greater Seal of Clarity
7 times: Greater Glyph of Clarity
2 times: Greater Glyph of Focus
3 times: Greater Quintessence of Swiftness
Runes Frozen Heart Build
9 times: Greater Mark of Desolation
9 times: Greater Seal of Clarity
9 times: Greater Glyph of Focus
3 times: Greater Quintessence of Swiftness
Runes Mana Manipulator Build
9 times: Greater Mark of Insight
9 times: Greater Seal of Clarity
8 times: Greater Glyph of Clarity
1 times: Greater Glyph of Focus
3 times: Greater Quintessence of Swiftness
Summoner Abilities
Flash This is the perfect skill for Alistar, the best way to use it is to surprise enemies with a fast stun, make sure a teammate is around to help.
Ghost Alistar isn't the best killer, ghost can help you chase them.
Both these skills are perfect for killing and for running away.
Skilling Order
Frozen Heart and Ghostblade Build
1. Start with pulverize, this is just the best skill.
2. Second should be headbutt, if you can try to early kill with those two skills and your laning partner
3. roar is very useful at this moment, they probably damaged you in the fight so push to cooldown the heal.
4. headbutt
5. headbutt
6. unbreakable will (at this moment you are perfectly ready to bash into a tower)
7. headbutt
8. roar (if you dont need health yet, take pulverize)
9. outmax headbutt first, make sure you get roar on level two and then outmax pulverize.
Mana Manipulator Build
1. Start with pulverize, this is just the best skill.
2. Second should be roar, u don't have health potions so this is the best possibility.
3. headbutt is very useful at this moment, use this to make easier kills by pushing the enemies to your laning partner.
4. headbutt
5. headbutt
6. unbreakable will (at this moment you are perfectly ready to bash into a tower)
7. headbutt
8. roar (if you dont need health yet, take pulverize)
9. outmax headbutt first, make sure you get roar on level two and then outmax pulverize.
Why which build?
Why Ghostblade Build
I found out my tanking abilities weren't enough for me anymore. I tried out ghostblade and it works perfect in combination with my ultimate. When I'm in endgame I try to buy my ghostblade and destroy each tower when I have the chance. This is the only build I play right now and it works perfectly.
Why Frozen Heart Build
This build is cheaper in the end and gives better results in normal games. Allways enough mana because of the chalice of harmony.
Why Mana Manipulator Build
When laning with a hero which uses mana, the mana manipulator can boost your lanemate. So if you have a friend like me playing the heat n serve build for gangplank, it could make him a critting machinegun with unlimited mana. Other characters could do something different with their mana, but could also be useful. Try it out with your friends and have awesome laningcombo's.
Ghostblade Build
Final Build (Ghostblade Build)
Chalice of Harmony part of the corebuild
Boots of Swiftness part of the corebuild
Randuin's Omen heart of gold part of the corebuild, the rest is if you need cooldownreduction and armor.
[item=Force of Nature] is for the magicresistance, movementspeed and healthregen
Youmuu's Ghostblade is for the attackspeed, armorpenetration, movementspeed and attackdamage. Towers will crumble!
See Ghostblade Build in championbuilder
[item=Meki Pendant]
2x Health Potion
Those items will get you time to get like 1000-1300g. Meki Pedant is for the manaregen and the Health Potions will help you get to level three without the need of roar, also u can use them to regen your mana (stop spamming roar for a while).
[item=Heart of Gold]
Boots of Speed
Chalice of Harmony
Boots of Swiftness
Way to invincibility
Randuin's Omen
[item=Force of Nature]
Youmuu's Ghostblade
Depending on how you are doing you buy magic resistance, armor or attackdamage. When finishing Randuin's omen you have more itemspot so in most situations this is the first to upgrade. When u are level 18 you should have bought your ghostblade. This item is perfect in endgame.
If the game is still going you can buy a Zeal or finish it with elixirs.
Frozen Heart Build
Final Build (Frozen Heart Build)
Chalice of Harmony (Perfect manaitem)
[item=Heart of Gold] (For the lack of gold) sold for Thornmail and/or Sunfire Cape (When u become invincible u can buy those items to help your team doing some damage)
Boots of Swiftness (I focus on movement speed in fights, this is why I prefer this above mobility boots)
Frozen Heart (39.95% cooldown reduction makes you the perfect supporter)
[item=Force of Nature] (Another boost for the movement speed and a great healthregeneration)
[item=Elixir of Agility] (Most common item I buy and then we finish the game)
See Frozen Heart Build in championbuilder
[item=Meki Pendant]
2x Health Potion
Those items will get you time to get like 1000-1300g. Meki Pedant is for the manaregen and the Health Potions will help you get to level three without the need of roar, also u can use them to regen your mana (stop spamming roar for a while).
[item=Heart of Gold]
Boots of Speed
Chalice of Harmony
Boots of Swiftness
Way to invincibility
After this you buy in following order (If their team is doing pretty much magic damage, buy the negatron cloak first):
Glacial Shroud This gives the cooldown you need.
Frozen Heart Outmax the cooldown reduction by taking another five percent.
[item=Force of Nature] This gives you extra movement speed which I intend to with this build, Also it gives u magic resist. If the enemyteam is mostly magic damage, buy this item before upgrading glacial shroud.
Finish it!
[item=Elixir of Agility], Elixir of Fortitude or [item=Oracle's Elixir] If the itembuild isnt enough, try elixers to finish it.
Thornmail or Sunfire Cape If you still can't win you could always sell your heart of gold for a damageitem like Thornmail or Sunfire Cape
Guardian Angel This is the worst nightmare for the enemy, when they have finally killed the cow you come back to life. I don't need this item anymore, but I have used it quiet a lot before.
[item=Stark's Fervor] If you really dont't know what to buy, try helping your team with a stark's fervor if your team doesn't have one allready.
Mana Manipulator Build
Final Build (Mana Manipulator Build)
[item=Soul shroud] (Perfect manaitem and gives cooldown reduction)
[item=Heart of gold] (For the lack of gold) upgraded to Randuin's Omen (Slows the enemy and its attackspeed which makes it easier to kill or run away, also it completes the cooldown reduction)
Boots of Swiftness (I focus on movement speed in fights, this is why I prefer this above mobility boots)
[item=Force of nature] (Another boost for the movement speed and a great healthregeneration)
Sheen or Tear of the Goddess(Mana item, Sheen would be perfect for some extra damage)
[item=Elixir of Agility], Elixir of Fortitude or [item=Oracle's Elixir] (If the itembuild isnt enough, try elixers to finish it)
See Mana Manipulator Build in championbuilder
Mana Manipulator
Those item will get you time to get like 1000-1300g. Mana manipulator will give u and your lanemate a manaboost. And at level 2 you can get roar.
[item=Heart of Gold]
Boots of Swiftness
[item=Soul shroud]
Somewhere in between
When u get the hang of it u start noticing a lack of mana will keep you from owning. At this moment you should have bought some mana. It fills an itemspot though, so the longer it can wait the better.
Sapphire Crystal This will help u enough for a while.
Sheen This will be the best upgrade possible, but sometimes it's still not enough mana, in those cases don't upgrade to sheen.
Tear of the Goddess Here is the end of the manaproblems.
Way to invincibility
After this you can start buying armor or magicresistance:
Warden's Mail This is if the enemy does most physical damage.
[item=Force of Nature] This is if the enemy does most magical damage. This also gives you extra movement speed which I intend to with this build.
Still take too much damage[/n]
Guardian Angel Makes you survive more fights then the enemy wants it to. Even though, I only buy this if the enemy is to fed. Normally I am tanky enough without it. Most of the time I start buying Elixir of agility after I got Randuin's Omen and force of nature, this will help u slay towers (and enemies) faster.
5 ways to feed your teammates
[b]Open your mind for these possibilities at all times
1. Use stun and headbutt to put them in dangerous places.
2. Use flash in offense and follow with a stun and headbutt.
3. Use ghost in offense and be sure you are near the enemy in notime, this is usefull by allmost all enemies (who isn't running away for an alistar and his hungry children behind him).
Don't use this too often, but if you really want/need the kill (Happends to me when I'm angry...)
4.1 Go to a lane where your teammates allmost finished someone off.
4.2 Use ghost and unbreakable will to run through the tower.
4.3 Headbutt the enemy into a wall and use stun and some auto-attacks to finish him off.
4.4 Walk back to your teammates like nothing happend and say MOOO (or Torro Torro if you have matadorskin) to your enemies.
For the hardcore alistar
5.1 Be aware you are Alistar with a tankbuild.
5.2 I said be aware you are Alistar! This means you can push people into towers, teammates, turrets (heimerdinger), minionwaves (you just heal them and they become a pretty big defenseline when you are alone).
5.3 Just use pulverize and headbutt at every moment this is possible.
Secret sixth
6. It is possible to headbutt someone through a wall (at certain spots in the game), it is all about the timing and correct spot you and your enemy are in. This makes it allmost impossible to do this every time, but it grants the opportunity sometimes. I know a few spots in the game and it is very funny if u can manage to do it twice in a row. If you understand how the secret sixth work (bug?) you also understand when it happends when you don't want the enemy to get through. Make your teammates happy and try to beware of this at all times.
Please give comments on my first guide :) (I know I didn't make it very big)

Cat Veterinary
Have Cat Questions? Ask a Cat Vet Online.
Hi again
Thanks for that information.
There are two possibilities for what is happening:
1. Allergy
2. Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI or cat flu)
Because Corazon is reasonably well otherwise and this is confined to her eyes I suspect it may be allergic. Perhaps contact with a plant pollen or similar or maybe an insect/spider bite. Cats will investigate all sorts of nooks and crannies and can contact a wide variety of allergens. But of course this could just be the early signs of URTI and that may require some more general medications and/or specific eye medication. Your vet will of course look after that side of things when he/she sees her.
In the meantime we can provide relief for her in two ways. First you can bathe her eyes with any human (non-medicated) eye bathing solution if you have any on hand. But a good alternative is a saline solution. You can make up your own by dissolving a teaspoon of salt in a pint (600 ml) of water. It's best to have boiled the water first and allowing it to cool. Wash the eyes liberally. It's quite soothing.
If you have any Benadryl Allergy (diphenhydramine) available that is quite safe and will relieve the discomfort as well as reduce the swelling. Ensure it is not the combination product (Benadryl Allergy and Sinus). The dose for cats is 1-2 mg/lb. Benadryl comes in a variety of formulations and strengths. If you are unsure please tell me the strength of what you have and Corazon's weight and I'll advise you.
Regards, Peter

Just downloaded & installed a program called Roboform. It manages and encrypts login usernames and passwords with tools added to browsers.
I found that FireFox could never log me in by memory into BWW's forum, but RoboForm has no problem. I have a link, below, with a price $10 lower than any other link - it is a Zone Labs link that I got as an email offer.
