Not the first time this has happened. July 3, 1988 a US Navy warship shot down a civilian Iranian Airbus, killing all 290 aboard.

It is very frightening. It could happen here in the USA. "Blue Bolshevik" the Iranian airliner was heading directly towards one of our ships and it had been warned in time to change course.

Putin had a great point - if war wasn't going on, this wouldn't have
Ukraine had an elected govt who didn't want to join
the European Union and were disposed by a group supported by George Soros and
his minions, including one Barack Obama. Though provoked, Putin stands up to
them. Crimea has always been Russian property, despite being part of the
Ukraine, but the Soros backed leaders wanted it back. Criameans voted over 90%
in favor of staying with Russia and war avoided - much to Soros' dismay.
So 'conflicts' break out between radicals of both sides and a
passenger plane gets shot down.
Who's to blame? Soros and his
buddies, by Putin's logic (which is probably correct).

This could be a false flag incident,designed to bring pressure on Putin to stay out of it. Or it could have been an untrained soldier playing with his new missile launcher not really sure how to tell a passenger plane from a military one. We may never know the truth.

Incredible. I guess the temptation is just too great. Something awful

Please don't defend or excuse the US shooting down the
Iranian airbus. The US even paid the Iranian government tens of millions of
daughters and basically admitted the USS Vicennes leadership made a tragic
mistake. What is historically ironic is that it came during a time of tension
between Iraq and Iran. We had thrown our support behind Iraq and Saddam
Hussein. But we misidentified the plane as a possible F-14, yes a US made
airplane that we had given to Iran during the days of the Shah. Just because we
make a "warning" doesn't mean it's ever okay to shoot down a
civilian plane over its own airspace.
Also to correct the record
this is the third known airplane shot out of the sky where most or all of the
plane's passengers died. The Israelis shot down an Libyan plane over the
Sinai Peninsula in the1970's, the Soviets shot down KAL OO7 in 1983 killing
all passengers, they also actually forced a civilian plane to land on a frozen
lake and two of the passengers were killed. And now this tragic situation.

Wasn't there an incident where a bomb exploded in a plane exploded over
Scotland. KAL, the Iranian incident, Scotland and now this one. I was
listening to Coast to Coast am last night. July 17 is the date TWA flight 800
went down. Could have been an missile attack. The guest made a compelling case
for that scenario. And not lets not forget the missing Malaysian plane has
never been located.
The world is not a safe place. At least some parts.
Terrorist have no conscience.

Board cuts clause from goals
Tonganoxie school board members decided Monday that they want the right to speak freely about public education.
At Monday night's board meeting, the board decided to remove a phrase from a list of board goals that Superintendent Richard Erickson had prepared for the upcoming year.
The phrase that raised some eyebrows among board members said, "The Board will maintain a positive attitude about the state of public schools in all dealings with the public."
Erickson told the board, "We're all trying to sell the public schools to our patrons we're all the bastions for the school."
But board members hedged.
"Sometimes if you say you're happy, happy, happy, nothing gets done," Terry Needham said. "I think you should support public education, but not by being happy, happy, happy all the time. Sometimes a positive change comes from seeing what's wrong and doing something about it."
The phrase also bothered board member Ron Moore.
"I don't think we need to be telling ourselves how to conduct ourselves in front of others or what our attitude should be," Moore said.
Bob Gepner recommended removing the phrase.
"I think we ought to strike it out," Gepner said. "I've been known to be critical of Kansas City, Missouri, public schools."
Richard Dean said he thought the phrase may have been included because several years ago, a board member wrote a letter to the editor that was critical of the school district.
Erickson agreed to remove the phrase.
Other objectives in the board goals for 2001-2001 are to:
Improve the school curriculum so the needs of all students can be met.
Develop a financial plan and control system to best use available funding resources.
Evaluate existing facilities to determine if they will be adequate to meet educational needs.

One of the New York Giants' top priorities this offseason is making sure they re-sign left tackle Will Beatty.
Mike Garafolo of USA today Sports told Giants fans on Twitter to not worry about Beatty's future and that he only has some minor things to work out with the Giants.
The Giants restructured Mathias Kiwanuaka's contract on Monday, which should free up some more cap room to re-sign some of their own free agents.

Ball is long off the tee and lots of spin for short shots. Ball seems to chew up some but will last a full round.

Good value, name brand, works well for me....use a single black line to mark my ball, anyway !!!!!

Re: Why a heat shield?
Thanks folks - all a bit clearer now.
84 posts • joined 7 Dec 2007
As one who watched Neil Armstrong make his "one small step...", what I've never figured out or had explained to me is just why we need the heat shield at all. Surely the craft could just spend longer gliding to earth?
Any commentards able to indicate just why or where I can find the answer appreciated.
I used a thumb drive for years and then when I plugged it into a Linux box I found a hidden partition with executables (and couldn't access the Windows partition).
So even after formatting a new drive, I reckon it's not possible to be secure knowing a drive is "clean". And this was from a known brand name, supplying UK gov't.
All a bit scary.
The middle / senior realms of the civil service are not where I'd look to find people with the skills to oversee such a project (I speak as one who was given a performance bonus for being the only member of the team able to apply a filter to an Excel spreadsheet).
In my experience of a (different) large civil service project, the aims & objectives were under constant review / adjustment, and consultants were able to utilise this lack of precision to pad the project out, giving every input from senior management an answer in the form of "yes, we can do that". Without, of course spelling out the costs & delays inherent. Needless to say, the deadline dates were wildly overshot.
Systems guru John Seddon of the Vanguard Method predicted this likely outcome when the project got underway in 2010, and, sadly but apparently inevitably, he seems to have been proven correct. (In brief, Seddon suggested the system be decentralised to local government and added to the Housing Benefit scheme they run, as they already held all the relevant data. It would have been up & running within a year, but not under the direct control of Whitehall).
Maybe the sheer unpleasantness of iTunes on the PC might be a contributory factor ?
One point that tends to get overlooked is that AFAIK Starbucks and other outfits are predominately franchise operations.
So mostly they are local businesses who can't escape paying the panoply of PAYE, NIC, VAT, Business rates, and Corporation Tax. They also pay royalties to the multinational for the use of the name and to receive marketing support, and it's those royalties we're talking about when we excoriate the megacorp for not paying taxes here. The local guy is just a businessman trying to earn a crust, so don't boycott him / her (and no, I've no connection to any franchise operators).
According to my Dad, he served in WW2 on a Motor Torpedo Boat which was Merlin-powered.
So the Merlin was more than "just" an aeroplane engine.
A few years ago I was involved in analysing employment figures & concluded that the average company in the UK has about 12 employees. (The actual average was 15, but that included leavers, so 12 seemed about right).
But it's the safe 90 mph which will get you a speeding ticket in Blighty.
Apologies to both Clarke and Plank - I was so convinced it was a Clarke-ism I didn't check. Maybe the version I quoted was Clarke's succinct paraphrasing?
Scientists whose living depends on the government dole agree with the line the politicos want, which of course keeps them in a job.
According to the sage Arthur C Clarke, when asked what causes changes in science, "Old men die". We'll just have to wait & hope they don't do anything too daft before a more rational set take over.
Me, I want them on the "B" Ark.
I've just had the "pleasure" this morning of experiencing the Border Force in (in)action.
Four checkouts, only two staffed, for 600 ferry passengers. But they did have a chappie pointing out to us which of the two checkouts to use. Obviously I'm missing something when I go to the supermarket & have to choose a checkout all by myself. A complete waste of taxpayers money.
The guy isn't even there as a security backup - the five plods at the back of the hall doing nothing but chat amongst themselves were more than enough for that.
Usually the instruction to turn off the device is after bags have been stowed, seat belts fastened, the safety drill being demonstrated, & the plane toddling it's way to take off. Virtually no-one at that stage will disrupt everything to unstow hand baggage to turn off their phone if it's in the hand baggage.
I reckon most flights take off with many devices in full working mode.
When I hear "blue" in an IT context the association I have is with "Big Blue", i.e. IBM. MS isn't "blue", it's "Azure", surely ?
It'll be interesting to see how MS holds on to it's revenue stream. My view is that they'll hold onto the business customers for Windows / Office in a single word: Excel. Every business outfit I know has lots of stuff on Excel that's been around donkeys. No one really knows how it does what it does & no one in their right mind would risk their job by suggesting an alternative. It's easier, cheaper & less livelihood threatening simply to pay MS's rental fees. The overwhelming majority of users neither know nor care what OS / software they're using, they just want it to work the way it did last week & no changes, thank you very much. That's a heavy inertial load in favour of MS in business for the foreseeable future.
Outside of business, there doesn't seem to be much reason to pay MS's increasingly hiked-up charges. XP still works just fine, & MS are asking £190 for W8, way more than Apple ask for OSX. Old versions of Office also work just fine & the latest versions (home & student) have had their price hacked up from £80 for 3 licences to £109 for a single licence. Unless you need or are required to use Office then Google's "Drive", at a purchase cost of zero, and a maintenance cost also of zero, seem very attractive. And, being cloud-based, it's got automatic backup built in, which means you don't need to wrestle with Windows Backup. Or as is often suggested Libre / Open Office might be worth looking at (can't say I was too enamoured of it myself when last I tried it, but that was some time ago).
I reckon that for the first time for years MS have a real fight on their hands. It'll be interesting to see how, or if, they can effectively respond.
Surely it should be the originators of most of the dross on You Tube who should pay for foisting the stuff on us???
Can't see many sales for a device that shone lasers into the eye. Bit of a tricky thing to sell?
Watch over
Events in
Deep space
I know a chap who was asking for one of those a couple of weeks ago - he's inherited an old coffee maker that uses such a lead & there wasn't one with it.
Put it on eBay please!
We've had cattle for hundreds of years in Britain & Badgers are native fauna. They seemed to have got along together now just fine for a long time. So why do we now need to start shooting them ? What's changed in the last few years to make this so necessary ?
Personally I'd be looking to see what changes in farming practices have coincided with this apparent rise in the TB "threat".
So do I just put everything I'm unsure about into a sub-folder of "Personal" & it's no longer available to investigators ?
Let's go for SI units & join the rest of the human race. Honourable exception to be given to aircraft height & beer.
Yes - if paying under PAYE the rounding system usually means you pay a few pounds less than is actually due -
e.g. allowances £6545 gets rounded in the employer PAYE calculation to £6550, so £5 @ your tax rate too little is paid.
It was explained to me, long ago, that this was to prevent small overpayments arising which would create mountains of clerical staff to calculate & repay.
A s Isaac Asimov pointed out: "The universe isn't hostile, it's merely indifferent".
The climate is beyond the ability of most (if not all) of us to comprehend, so to fix on a single factor, be that CO2, sunspots, or <your chosen factor goes here> isn't likely to be useful. By continuing to argue over causes (which is valid research) we're missing the wider issue that come what may, the climate will change. Surely the rational approach should be to decide what we need to do to mitigate the potential adverse effects of climate change. (E.g. stop subsidising the insurance policies of homeowners building on coastlines subject to hurricane risk to discourage such development). If, along the way we can reduce substantially CO2 emissions then, on the precautionary principle, that seems a very good idea. But unless the IPCC is way wrong, we're going to have global temperature rises across the whole of this century, at least, irrespective of sunspots, Earth's orbit, passing asteroid clouds or whatever.
No, American technical isolation began when they stuck to the imperial system of measurements.
I've long thought a carbon tax seems both rational & sensible - but only if it replaced VAT as a spending-type tax. Unfortunately, I just don't trust politicians sufficiently to replace VAT. On past form, it would be brought in as yet another additional tax.
These ninnycompoops seem to want us to move back to the caves. I wish they would.
My favourite distracted driver was spotted in Florida. The car was weaving about the Interstate & we decided to put some distance between him and us. As we went by, we noticed the driver was steering with his knees, both hands being needed to eat his bowl of cornflakes.
My main problem with the CO2 figures being bandied about is the method of presentation. We're continually given CO2 as 300 or 400 ppm, as if that were a 33% rise. But ppm is a scientific shorthand, used mainly by scientists. In straight numbers, it's a rise from 0.003% of the atmosphere to 0.004%.
It just doesn't seem to ring true that the climate system is so sensitive to such tiny changes in CO2 levels.
I thought as you did, it must be 27 (3 X 9), but some astronauts went twice, e.g. IIRC Jim Lovell was on both Apollos 8 & 13.
So 24 is probably correct.
Paul Allen has something approaching an aircraft carrier - with heli pad & submarine launchers.
The Hungarian that invented Excel has a nice 200+ foot cruiser called the SKAT, which also has heli pad & boat doors for the zodiacs. Saw it in Stockholm in May & it looked very desirable. No chance on being allowed on board, unfortunately.
The trouble with the formal approaches is that they tend to focus attention on completion of paperwork - progress reports, red / amber / green "flags" and the like - which diverts the PM's time & attention away from actually understanding what the reportees are actually doing. If the PM can't or won't interpret just what he / she's being told against the cold light of reality then the project will fail, no matter how many interim targets are allegedly met.
If the PM actually understands what he / she's being told - irrespective of formal targets - then it's much more likely the project will proceed to successful completion. The formal approaches only work when they are used as an aide where appropriate, & not an end in themselves.
Yet again sloppy security from those who should know better.
Why are DVD/CD drives & USB ports even available to users ? Just superglue the lot & the problem disappears.
Leaving only laptops, Blackberrys & smartphones to be left in wine bars, trains, etc.
Intranet-based ? Que?
This is a CD-ROM sent out to employers by HMRC. Intranet isn't relevant.
And the system is donkeys years old (which presumably is why they are replacing it with a web-based app) - when it was invented, this new-fangled interweb thingy was just a geek's wet dream.
The "autoupdate" is a user spotting an error that's slipped by QA/QC & reporting it to HMRC. Who then have to decide if it's worth doing anything about.
More akin to an error in a published book.
This is soo sad. When I worked for HMRC we were bombarded with compulsory "diversity" courses & awareness events. I really wouldn't think anyone within HMRC would behave in this manner (or be so stupid as to think they wouldn't be caught).
And, Mr AC, HMRC mgt take extreme umbridge to any of their staff who are not 100% honest. Just because you may not like what they tell you (esp in relation to IR35), that doesn't justify the "nine bob bit" slur.
Maybe because they don't want software that crashes repeatedly & runs like treacle ?
Pity we're not informed as to how many of these intercepts resulted in successful prosecutions. I'd hazard a guess that the answer is "not many", because if they had been successful, the results would be trumpeted from the rooftops.
The suspicion is that it's just prurient, ineffective snooping, achieving very little other than wasting police, etc., time
I've never figured out just what the BCS are supposd to do or be about.
I first came across them in the 1970's & couldn't figure out what they were doing for me then, a lowly programmer.
Things haven't changed since - I've never come across any evidence that they have any relevance to workers or managers in IT.
I just don't see the point of them.
It's hard to see how HMRC are going to get rid of microfiches at all - they've been recording up to 20M employees pay, tax & NI details per year onto microfiche for decades.(Although under electronic submission of employee data it's probably stopped now). Whilst it would no doubt be useful to transfer the lot to an electronic format, the chances of money under any foreseeable gov't being made available to do that must be pretty close to zero. The costs would be enormous & in lots of cases, human intervention would be needed to interpret images, giving rise to further occasions of error. So they'd still need to retain the originals, as actual copies of the source documents.
The problem that the NI office face is that they need to keep data going back to 1948 (start of NI [aka "Social Security] in the UK), so the data mountain just keeps growing.
The quicker Flash dies the better IMHO.
Buggy, slow & used by learner programmers to impress ignorant management. Looks great on the in-house Intranet, runs like a soporific tortoise on the Internet.
In 99% of cases it detracts from the user experience. And anything that Adobe has had it's hands on seems to be associated with crashes & weird PC behaviour.
As usual with gov't dept's, things are organised for their benefit, not the customers.
My late stepmother died & I was warned that I could either a) tax her vehicle, or b) SORN it. Both required her signature - a bit tricky.
No third option - they clearly hadn't even thought of such an event happening, although it must be a relatively common thing to occur. Brainless, just brainless.
MBNA have just told me I can't log in as their systems are down for maintenance - on PAYDAY ?!?!
for the beeb to save money is simple:
Only send one reporter to cover an event. There's no need to send journos from various parts of the organisation.
Dump the pointless local radio stations. The aural wallpaper they churn out is well duplicated by the commercial sector.
I saw some newsreel footage of one of these 'ships a few years ago & it was simply awesome. It semed - and still seems - an ideal way to patrol long seaboards.

Though Ogilvy was one of the worst poets of his time, he was without a rival in point of industry. This virtue alone, if he had had no other merit, would entitle him to some respect. He began to study at an age when men usually think of leaving off all literary pursuits; and quickly made an astonishing progress. He could scarce construe Virgil, when he entered upon a translation of that poet; and he was no less eager to translate Homer, though he was far from being a competent master of English or Greek. That he had no success in these great attempts is not to be admired; the attempts themselves are matter of admiration. I shall pass over his "Esop's Fables," and several other folios which he published, to mention his "Carolies," an heroic poem, in twelve books, in honour of Charles I. on which he had been long labouring. This, which he tells us, he had "resolved to be the pride, divertisement, business, and sole comfort of his age," was burnt in the fire of London. His fortune was reduced, by that conflagration, to 5 1. only; but he, in a few years, retrieved his loss, by undertaking and finishing several voluminous works. His last and greatest undertaking was his "Atlas," which was alone a sufficient task for a man's life. Three or four volumes, in folio, have been published of this work, which he did not live to finish. It is well known that he was employed by Charles II. to take a survey of the roads of the kingdom; and I have been informed, that the posts were regulated according to that survey. Ob. 4 Sept. 1676.

OGILBY, JOHN (1600-1676) author and printer; in early life taught dancing; employed by Strafford in Ireland, where he became deputy-master, and afterwards master of the revels; entrusted with 'poetical part' of Charles II's coronation, 1661; his house and booksellers' stock destroyed in fire of Loudon, 1666; afterwards set up large printing establishment and became 'king's cosmographer'; published verse translations of Virgil, AEsop's 'Fables,' and Homer, with plates by Hollar, and printed an edition of the bible (Cambridge, 1660), a folio Virgil, 'Entertainment of Charles II,' and many geographical works. He was ridiculed by Dryden and Pope, but utilised by the latter.

trizznilla posted... The newness of the 3D has worn off, but the system itself keeps me playing it. I use the browser a lot, the game notes as a grocery list, the 3D camera. Pandora and youtube apps would make my day. There are thousands of apps for phones to make grocery lists, and you make one on the 3DS? I really recommend doing it on a smartphone, because you always carry one with you anyway. Every time, someone always has to manage to mention smartphones on a 3DS board. | |

I'm sending it into nintendo soon anyways. The touch screen bumps collide with the top screen, screwing up the whole thing. Like, a square shaped scratch alone my upper screen. When it comes back, I'm sure the spark will come back. Umm... that design flaw affects every 3DS that I know of. If you expect Nintendo to fix that problem, then you are essentially asking them to fix a (bad) intended design choise.

A curious thing
So My twins, Malp and Dhd, both have this habit of grooming people as well as each other, my older female Shinigami....I even caught Dhd grooming the dog once!
It's not really a bother, not really something I have any desire to stop, I'm just cerious as to WHY they do this. Dhd will sit there and lick my arm, my hand, my armpit (when I"m asleep) by the HOUR. Malp has more an attraction to my hair, spasifically around my scalp. Today she even tried to groom my eyebrow! Are they just letting me know i'm part of the colony? or is this something else? does anyone else's cats do this or are mine just werid? (it's okay if they are. I"m a werido too!:crazy:) |
They may like taste of salt on your body.
my cat lady will sniff your underarms and lick them if she gets a chance
both my cats are lickers! for each other, for us and guests to our home.
My cat Rasta likes to lick my hands, which is not a problem when I an awake. But he also does it when I sleep and I have waken up with sores/scabs due to this. I think it's a way to show that ''I am his". I currently have 2 scabs on my hands due to the licking. sandyrivers |

Many of the agency's proposals to ensure such a calamity doesn't happen here are good in principle, but their effectiveness will depend on how well they are executed and how quickly. It took 10 years for the agency to fully implement security upgrades made necessary by the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and it will take at least five years to institute changes in response to Fukushima, whose anniversary is March 11. In the meantime, the nuclear industry is getting out ahead of the NRC by launching a voluntary program that might not adequately protect the public.What are the implications of Fukushima for the U.S. nuclear fleet? Immediately after the accident, some argued that U.S. reactors are not as vulnerable. But it became clear that Japanese reactors and those in the United States are similar in many ways.For example, the General Electric Mark I reactors at Fukushima, like the 23 Mark I reactors in the United States, had hardened vents to release heat and relieve pressure from their containment buildings during an accident. But the vents won't work without electric power. The Fukushima and U.S. reactors also lack control-room instruments that would monitor spent fuel pool water levels and temperature. And U.S. plant owners' plans for managing emergencies probably would not have worked any better than those at Fukushima. Dave LochbaumLast summer, an NRC task force reviewed the Fukushima accident and came up with a dozen recommendations to reduce U.S. reactor vulnerability. The NRC agreed to implement some of the proposals in the near future, but relegated the task force's top recommendation to the back burner. Edwin LymanThat top recommendation called for the NRC to clarify its "patchwork" regulatory framework for events that reactors are not intended to withstand, such as the earthquake-tsunami combination that overwhelmed Fukushima -- an event termed "beyond-design-basis." It would make the most sense for the agency to address this key issue first. By relegating it to last, the agency complicated how it will address other recommendations. For example, the task force said that the NRC should require plant owners to put measures into place to help workers cope with a loss of electric power and its on-site emergency backups, called a station blackout. The precedent comes from the NRC's post-9/11 requirement that plant owners install portable diesel-fueled pumps and generators to protect their facilities from a prolonged station blackout caused by an aircraft attack. But because the NRC defines an aircraft attack as a beyond-design-basis event, it did not require that this equipment meet high quality and reliability standards, or be hardened to withstand other potential threats, such as natural disasters. Indeed, post-Fukushima inspections have confirmed that some of the equipment at many plants would not survive earthquakes or floods. While the NRC deliberates, the nuclear industry has stepped into the breach with the "Diverse and Flexible Coping Capability" program, or FLEX, designed as the foundation of its Fukushima response. Under FLEX, plant owners are supplementing and relocating the post-9/11 equipment, ostensibly to better respond to severe natural disasters. Plant owners are dispersing it on and near reactor sites but don't plan to upgrade it to resist natural disasters. The industry is banking that enough equipment will be around so that some of it would be available in a catastrophe. The NRC proposed that plant owners provide reasonable protection for emergency equipment, but did not define how to meet this requirement. In the meantime, plant owners have purchased more than 300 pieces of FLEX equipment without waiting for NRC guidelines, which will make it difficult for the agency to later institute standards that could force the industry to replace the equipment.Last July, the Union of Concerned Scientists released recommendations for strengthening reactor safeguards. The NRC staff initially selected three of these recommendations --enlarging emergency evacuation zones, expanding potassium iodide distribution, and accelerating the transfer of spent fuel from pools to dry casks -- for further evaluation. A few months later, however, the agency decided that its established approach in each area is adequate. Adequate? Hardly. For instance, the NRC justifies its one-size-fits-all, 10-mile-radius emergency evacuation zone by arguing that evacuations could be expanded in a serious accident. But the agency has yet to explain how that would happen and will not be taking up this issue until a later date. The NRC is downplaying its task force's most important recommendation and potentially undermining efforts to improve U.S. reactor safety. The agency is not adequately addressing deficiencies in its emergency evacuation planning and spent fuel storage standards. All the while, the nuclear industry is outpacing the agency with a low-budget, voluntary and potentially ineffective plan. For the 116 million Americans who live within 50 miles of a nuclear plant, that's cold comfort.Follow us on Twitter: @CNNOpinion.Join us at Facebook/CNNOpinion.More from opinionThanks, Ben Carson, but prison doesn't make people 'come out' gayWhat will happen if the bees disappear?Why Iran's rise is a good thingPowered by Livefyre

Very interesting post, thoroughly enjoyed the read. I'd also like to see towers scale appropriately. Level 1 towers hurt. Bring on the pain!
c7g Laser
I very much appreciate your post, however I think there is one thing that I think I should point out that a lot of people ignore. Each Elo has it's own meta. I'm not referring to the whole top/mid/jungle/duo bot concept. But rather the champions that fill that role. For example, how often in recent high level play do we see akali being picked. Yet, in mid-elos she snowballs so hard it's ungodly. And then again in low-elo, she isn't as strong because people don't understand how to take advantage of her kit and being melee puts her at a disadvantage. Another example would be the old Evelyn. At low-to-mid Elo Evelyn would just destroy, because people wouldn't buy wards or oracles. However, once people learned how important those items were, Evelyn became significantly less of a threat. Tryndamere works in the same way. He can stomp people who don't know how to control him and keep him in-check, but once people learn to drop exhaust on him, or pop an ignite 2 secs into his ult, he's a lot less scary. On the other end of the spectrum we have Maokai, who is very vulnerable in his early jungle, which makes him weak at lower levels where people aren't good at protecting against counter jungling, but at high-elo play where teams are strong in early-warding and the like. He becomes very strong very fast. Another example comes not with champions but with playstyle. At low Elo, often times it is more efficient to get kills rather than to sit back and farm up. The reasons being, your opponents are more likely to get disheartened from a kill, you likely aren't that great at farming yourself so the kill gold is more efficient, and the champions that are more effective at low-elo are likely more snowbally and will benefit from the roaming that getting a kill will provide. Another thing I've run into at low-elo is the lowered effectiveness of warding. We all know that wards win games, but that only works if 1. All of your team(including you) is willing to help out in warding and 2. Your team(including yourself) has the awareness to take advantage of the wards. I cannot tell you how often I have been in a mostly even top-lane and fallen behind because I chose to buy wards, when my opponent chose to save the gold for items, and then my jungler/mid (b/c it's mid's job to gank too) never helped take advantage by stealing their jungle or ganking. Wards are only effective if you can turn them into gold and which makes them efficient(avoiding getting ganked/killed is earned gold imo, b/c it's gold they don't have). SUPER SECRET NINJA TIP(thanks ranger14 :P) : Buy pink wards as a top-laner if your lane opponent is buying wards as well. Your jungler will thank you and love you.
how is this being taken seriously? Games are decided at the picks everyone knows that lol - unless the stronger team throws hard or can't farm or doesn't know what team objectives to do at what time, when to gank, when to invade, they will probably lose....oh wait...that's meta game...WOW
*Tony Jay's voice goes here* League of Legends. A game with over 100 characters and about, oh, 7 champions to choose from. Seriously though, I was playing this game and felt very similar to your post and feel that sometimes it's not worth pushing that big red Play button at the top... Not worth it...
"The lack of punishment for people refusing to play on correct servers" ? You lost most of my support here. Would you like to elaborate on why the hell I'm considered playing on the "wrong" server because I'm playing in the server I WANT to play? Does this also mean I can't play a game at all if the company does not hold a dedicated server for my country? lol
how hard would it be to rotate the map 180 degrees???? seems possible.........?????? i dont see why it hasnt been done?
Junior Member
As a comment about the camera angle, I 100% agree. I find myself always doing better on the blue side of the map because the camera angle is more beneficial for your needs, especially in early and mid game. Being on the blue side allows you to see more clearly and farther away, even when locked onto your champ. Not only do you need to be able to maneuver the camera more frequently when on the purple side, but usually your scope is so focused on one aspect or area of the map that you either are drawn to it more, therefore making you have less awareness of your surroundings, or you literally can't see efficiently enough to have better awareness. A common problem when on the purple side and laning is having to decide on focusing your camera farther down the lane to be able to poke your enemies, or having it closer by so you can be more alert and ready for ganks from behind/next to you. And again, I know map awareness can help, but the way the camera is angled for purple side just naturally makes you focus more on the center of the screen. Unfortunately, I cannot think of a way to fix the problems I feel are caused by the camera angle :/
You think your a 'vet' but your still a noob. Come talk after a couple thousand games, then you might now something, this is just noobies complaints, seen every one of em complained and posted about many,many, many times.
To the OP: The thing you'll find as you play the game more and more is that almost every champion is exploitable in one way or another. There are a couple champs that are just, for lack of a better word, BAD. They will get you ridiculed at champ select and they will lose you games no matter the match-up. But there are other champions that people CALL bad, that are actually very useful in certain circumstances, as particular counters or when teamed with other champions. And it takes QUITE a long time to figure out all these match-ups. But, the other side of the coin is this: You can win with average or even below-average champions (power-wise) by playing a massive amount of games with them. My example: I've played hundreds of Teemo games solo top, both on this account and others. I play him against everyone, whether they're a hard counter (Irelia, Jayce, Yorick) or an easy match-up (Garen, Tryn, Singed). And eventually, just by playing a champ that much, you learn the match-ups and the gameplay to a degree that you can be successful, even though the champion you're playing may not be particularly strong. I'm a completely average 1200 Elo player on my EUW account, but I'm well over a 60% win rate with Teemo, even though I play him against ANY and EVERY match-up. And that's solely because I've played hundreds of games with him, and my mechanics on that one champ are much more polished than they are on other champs. But that said, I still agree with the basis of some of your argument. If I was strictly try-harding to raise Elo, it would be much more effective for me to play 300 games with Blitz or Singed or Jax or Irelia than to play that many games with Teemo. A well-polished Blitz is going to win more games than a well-polished Teemo. But that's not just about the POWER of the champion, it's about a lot of things. Blitz is incredibly strong because he's insanely safe and easy to play and win with. You can miss five hooks in a row, and not be punished AT ALL for it, then hit the sixth in a game-changing fight, and you're a hero. That's not champion strength, it's champion ease. There is no punishment for missing his main skill. On top of that, even if you do mess up and get caught, you have a silence, a speed buff, a knock-up, and an innate shield to cover those mistakes. Blitz is VERY easy and VERY safe. That's the case with most of the so-called STRONG champs. Ezreal is considered really strong right now. He's not, he's just really easy. He has a blink, which combined with Flash means you should NEVER, ever be caught by anything. You can hit his ult from anywhere, because it's big and it has huge range. He's insanely safe and easy, as compared to other AD carries that don't have a blink and a comparable ult. Ez has a higher win rate than comparable champs because it's just easier to play him. His blink covers up a ton of mistakes, so you can play worse and still not be punished for it.

Column - It's not too late to learn to cook
The other day, sister Mary asked me if I wanted a bunch of her many cookbooks. She is running out of room.
"Nope, I don't have room either," I said. "Why don't you give them to your kids?"
She scoffed.
"I know my kids," she said. "They wouldn't want a roomful of cookbooks, especially if they have a McDonald's next door."
By which Mary meant those kids, grown adults now, can't - or won't - cook. It's not that they were brought up on junk food - far from it.

I'd like to take this moment to remind all of you photographers of our travel inspiration website, Why Go. We're always accepting submissions... (And I should note that at some point all the pictures are going to be by yours truly if I run out of the ones people are sending me! That ought to be incentive enough!!)
Thanks in advance for sharing your handiwork!!
2 posts • Page 1 of 1
Don't forget about Why Go!
I'm bumping this back up to tell newer members about Why Go if they haven't already heard about it... There was a period of time when a bunch of submissions didn't come through clearly, so I lost quite a few that would have been lovely. I'm working on contacting people to get them to resubmit, but in the meantime it means that my WhyGo storehouse is lower than I'd like it to be! Now, the site isn't going to be blank tomorrow, but I always like having more photos on hand than I need. So submit your photos!
Oh, and you can submit travel-related quotes, too!

Grant Guidelines
The Northern New York Community Foundation accepts grant requests to support the work of non-profit tax exempt organizations in or serving Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence counties for projects that affect the quality of life in each of these regions.
Please remember, grants are not made to individuals.
In 2013, the Foundation provided grants and scholarships totaling over $2 million dollars. For information on past awards, see our annual reports.
To view recent grant recipients, click here.
Eligible projects and programs
The Foundation encourages proposals for innovative and creative projects that address problems to be solved or opportunities to be seized in the Northern New York area. The general policy of the Foundation is to make grants to programs that are responsive to changing community needs in the areas of health, human services, education and cultural affairs.
Grants are made only for capital items and for seed money for new agencies, or new projects by established agencies. In general, in regard to capital campaigns, the Foundation will fund no more than 10% of the campaign goal. The Foundation does not fund operations or pay off deficits. We do not make grants to churches and religious organizations except in cases where projects clearly benefit the entire community.
How to submit a grant proposal
First, contact the Foundation by letter, phone or email to provide a brief summary of your program and needs and to request grant application guidelines. After an initial discussion with our staff, you may then submit a written application. After discussing your proposed project our staff may make a site visit.
Grant applications are reviewed four times a year. Grant requests of $5,000 or less may be approved at the committee level. Larger grant requests are referred to the Board of Directors with a committee recommendation.
Notification of Decision
The applicant will be notified of the grant award or denial by letter after the committee meeting or Board of Directors meeting. We request that inquiries regarding the status of a grant application be made after that date. An unsuccessful grant application does not necessarily reflect the worthiness of a particular project. The Foundation receives more requests than it can fund.
Agencies receiving grants are required to submit a written evaluation of the project after all work has been completed. Foundation staff will be available to make site visits and assist in the evaluation process.

Mid Peninsula School District Operating Levy Proposal (November 2012)
A Mid Peninsula School District Operating Levy proposal was on the November 6, 2012 election ballot in Delta and Marquette counties, which are in Michigan, where it was defeated.
If approved, this proposal would have authorized the Mid Peninsula School District to increase property taxes by 18 mills ($18 per $1,000 of assessed valuation) for 20 years in order to fund the operating purposes of the District and replace a 0.4914 mills reduction. The estimated first year revenue from this tax is $837,369.[1]
