We're here to help.
Most of the information you need to apply to UVa-Wise is on our site.
But, we are always here to provide live help. Regional assignments and
phone numbers of counselors can be found below.
Admissions Ambassadors
The UVa-Wise Ambassadors are a group of students selected each year by an application and interview process.
The group is selected on the basis of academic performance, personality, and leadership potential. Each ambassador is assigned an hour each week in which they either give a campus tour to a visiting student or assist the Office of Admissions in e-mail, phone calls, or hosting group visits. In addition to an hour of individual duty each week, each ambassador is expected to attend each of UVa-Wise 360 programs throughout the year.
The ambassadors hold fund-raising projects each year to help raise funds for training retreats, shirts and jackets for the group, and some public service projects involving area Head Start programs. The ambassadors are also called upon to volunteer for community service projects when possible.

Here are today's headline stories from the world of sport.
Stuart Lancaster has loosened the shackles around his team a week out from the World Cup and called for a white wave of support to carry England to the Webb Ellis Cup.
The side under Lancaster's leadership have been a by-word for quiet humility but the England coach upped the ante considerably in a passionate call to arms at the side's glitzy send-off event at London's O2 Arena. (Express)
Serena Williams does not need to win the calendar Grand Slam to prove she is the greatest ever female tennis player, says John McEnroe.
The 33-year-old, two victories from winning the first calendar Slam since 1988, plays Roberta Vinci in Friday's delayed US Open semi-finals. (BBC)
Anthony Joshua has branded Dillian Whyte a 'hater' as he prepares to fight Gary Cornish at London's O2 Arena on Saturday.
Joshua challenges Scotland's undefeated Cornish for the vacant Commonwealth heavyweight title and with victory will set up what would be the biggest fight of his career in December against Whyte, who must defeat Brian Minto on the undercard. (Mail)
Adil Rashid is relishing being part of the current England set-up after finally breaking back into the side.
The Yorkshire leg-spinner, who made his ODI debut in 2009 but then had to wait nearly five years before adding to his five caps against New Zealand earlier this summer, played a key role in England's win in the third ODI against Australia on Tuesday. (Sky Sports)

East Africa's climatic cycles are characterized by wet and dry seasons. In southern Kenya there are two wet seasons - the long rains or "masika" from late-March to mid-June and the short rains or "mvuli" from late-October to mid-December. In Northern Tanzania the wet season tends to be between December and April or May. Uganda, which is generally wetter than Kenya and Tanzania, experiences two wet seasons in the south, April to May and October to November, and one in the north from April to October. Wildlife tends to be easier to see during the dry season as they concentrate around watering holes. However, the wet season offers fewer travelers, green savannas and triggers breeding activity for a great many species. Personally, my favorite times are at the end of February, right as the wildebeest are calving in the Southern Serengeti, and mid to late June as the migration is moving northward, the dry season is starting and the landscape is still green. Book early for February in particular. Back to Top
It is safe to travel to East Africa, as long as you take reasonable precautions. If you wouldn't wander around a campsite at night in bear country at home, don't do it while staying at a tented camp in the Serengeti. In Nairobi you should take the same precautions that you would in any large unknown city. Don't walk around at night, and check with the bellman or concierge about areas you should avoid. Back to Top
One of the most important aspects of your safari is maximizing the amount of quality time in the field; there is so much to experience that we don't want to miss anything. We choose not only quality lodges and tented camps with en suite facilities, but consider their locations foremost in our planning. Our accommodations are located within national park and reserve boundaries whenever possible, to start each morning closer to the wildlife. The lodges we choose, as well as many of the tented camps, feature spectacular scenery, comfortable furnishings, and friendly and accommodating staff. Some even offer swimming pools for relaxing after a long safari drive! Note that while we make every effort to offer superior facilities, occasionally there may be a particular location that necessitates us to stay in more basic mobile tented camps or bandas, that may not provide en suite facilities. Back to Top
The Great Migration. One of the world's greatest wildlife spectacles is the ongoing migration of over 1 million wildebeest and zebra in the Mara-Serengeti ecosystem. As the dry season descends upon the plains in April, and water becomes scarcer, great herds of wildebeest and zebra begin to move up from the Southern Serengeti, seeking the lush pastures of the northwestern section of the Serengeti National Park. During May and June, mating occurs as the animals continue on their journey northwards. Sometime in July they begin to cross into the Maasai Mara National Park. It usually takes about 6 weeks for all of the herds to cross into the Mara and disperse over the northern grasslands. Beginning in November they head south back into Tanzania and the southern Serengeti where calving occurs in January and February. In April the cycle begins once more. Back to Top
East Africa features an amazing diversity of bird life with about 1400 species recorded. A 14-17 day bird-focused safari might yield more than 500 species. There are a large number of avian families that are endemic to Africa, including mousebirds, turacos, guineafowl, ground hornbills, barbets, secretary birds, ostrich, shoebill and hamerkop. Many colorful species dazzle the eye - kingfishers, bee-eaters, flamingos, stunning lilac-breasted Rollers, stately grey-crowned cranes, and saddle-billed storks. Palearctic migrants from Europe and Asia spend their winters in equatorial Africa, from September through April. The crab-plover, a much sought-after migrant, can be readily found on the Kenyan and Tanzanian coasts. Back to Top
In addition to the famous "Big 5" (elephant, rhino, lion, cape buffalo, and leopard), East Africa hosts a wide variety of animals in diverse habitats. Antelopes are notable with about 40 different species, including elands, waterbuck, gerenuk, topis, hartebeest, impala, gazelles, and the diminutive dik-diks. These, along with herds of zebras and wildebeest, serve as the main prey for the ever-hungry carnivores such as lions, hyenas and cheetahs. It is always a treat to see roving bands of mongoose and comical warthogs. East African rivers are alive with hippopotamus and opportunistic Nile crocodiles. Primates are well-represented with olive and yellow baboons, vervet, blue and red-tailed monkeys, black-and-white colobus and Uganda's rare great apes - chimpanzees and mountain gorillas. The forests host a wide array of butterflies. Nile monitor, leopard tortoise and a handful of lizards are also encountered. Back to Top
We use a combination of 4-wheel Land Cruisers, Land Rovers and minibuses to maximize our viewing opportunities in the field. In Tanzania and Uganda we use Land Cruisers and Land Rovers exclusively; in Kenya several of our itineraries utilize minibuses. These vehicles feature pop-top roofs for all-around visibility, and open center aisles for flexible maneuvering when stopped. All of our vehicles conform to safety regulations and are custom-built to take the rigors of a safari. All vehicles are driven by our experienced and highly knowledgeable local guides, who are integral in explaining the intricacies of the ecological principals or animal behavior that you'll be witnessing. Our vehicles provide maximum safety as well as ease of viewing. Many of our safaris take place in national parks and reserves, whose regulations require us to stay inside our vehicles due to danger from wild animals. Back to Top
Many of the roads in East Africa are hard packed gravel and because of their heavy use they're often rutted. Guides joke that it's the "safari massage". While there are some beautifully paved roads (from Nairobi to Lake Nakuru, Arusha to the Ngorongoro Highlands, Entebbe to Kibale Forest) in general you will be on rougher gravel roads. If you have back problems we recommend minimizing driving with internal flights. Back to Top
Our standard Land Cruisers allow for a maximum of six travelers, plus a guide/driver. Our maximum group size is generally 12, with a maximum of 10 on our Serengeti Wilderness Safari, which uses regular Land Cruisers instead of extended ones. It is not uncommon to have group sizes smaller than 10, which will give you more exclusive time in the vehicle with your driver/guide. Back to Top
There are usually two game drives per day, one in the morning lasting about 3-5 hours, and one in late afternoon which lasts about 3 hours. Our drivers are not limited by the amount of driving that they can do in a day and are masters in reading the environment to place you in the most promising locations to wildlife. In addition to seeing the wildlife, there are always opportunities for spontaneity in our tours. Whether that be stopping to speak with a Maasai heading his cattle, or part take in a festivities being held a nearby village we try to stop and take in whatever is happening on that day. Back to Top
Parks and reserves are typically open from sunrise to sunset. We like to maximize our time in the field, so we usually take an early breakfast and head out at 6:30 for our morning game drive, returning late-morning. While we will likely see wildlife at any time of the day, early morning gives us a better chance of finding nocturnal species such as Leopard or cats at a kill and wildlife is most active first thing in the morning. Lunch is around 12:30 and a short rest period for both participants and wildlife follows. At 3:30 we head out for our afternoon game drive returning around 6:30. We have dinner at 7:30 and complete our checklist at that time. Be prepared for a great deal of excitement! Back to Top
There is a good selection of international cuisine, including vegetarian choices. Fresh fruits, tasty desserts, and hot beverages are readily available. Breakfast portions are ample, with plenty of coffee and tea. At times when we are in the field or enroute, we will bring boxed lunches with us for a picnic. Depending on the lodge meals may be buffet or plated. Back to Top
National Parks do not allow anyone to be out after sunset, the official closing time is usually 6:30pm, at which time you're expected to be back in camp or at least on your way there. However, there are a few lodges that run night game drives outside National Parks and we include these as part of our itinerary whenever possible. Night game drives usually last for 2 to 3 hours beginning just after sunset or after dinner. These give us an opportunity to see a variety of nocturnal creatures such at bushbabies, porcupines, genets, nightjars and owls. Back to Top
Yes, it can be. Trekking for gorillas can be a hike of 15 minutes to 3 hours, depending on where the gorillas are located. Mountain Gorilla habitat is from 6000-9000 feet, and you will generally be hiking through forest rather than on maintained trails. If you're planning on trekking for gorillas we recommend that you be in decent shape. Consider hiring a local porter to carry your gear and bringing leather gardening gloves so that if you slip and reach out for a branch it won't matter if it's covered in thorns. Back to Top
The weather in Eastern Africa can vary greatly depending on the regions in which you are traveling. The coast of Kenya and Tanzania is relatively hot and humid year round, especially January to March. At higher elevations and in mountainous regions temperatures are very pleasant year round ranging from 70-85º with little humidity. This includes Arusha, Nairobi, the Ngorongoro crater or gorilla trekking in the Virunga Mountains of Rwanda or Uganda. However many people underestimate how cool East Africa can be, especially during the winter months of June to August. Prepare for temperatures that can drop down to 40ºF in the evenings and much colder if climbing Mt. Kenya or Mt. Kilimanjaro.
Many layers of light breathable quick dry clothing is the best way to stay comfortable as you travel through the different ecosystems of East Africa. A waterproof jacket or poncho is also a key item for your day pack. If your safari mainly includes driving, then normal shoes will suffice. However if you are planning to do any walking safari's or trekking, then full hiking boots are the way to go. The most common complaint we get about weather is that it was colder than expected in the mornings and evenings so remember to bring a mid-weight jacket and possibly a hat and gloves for early morning game drives, particularly in June and July. Back to Top
A current passport valid for up to 6 months after the return date of your trip is needed to travel anywhere in East Africa. U.S. citizens also need a visa for entry into Tanzania, Kenya or Uganda. No visa is required for entry into Rwanda.
It is highly recommended to acquire your visa prior to arrival. The standard 90 day tourist visa is valid for up to one year from the date of issue and applications and directions may be found at the respective Embassy's website. For additional assistance or express service we recommend Generations Visa Service which is a third party visa obtaining service.

Certain medications and/or immunizations are recommended or required for travel to East Africa. Yellow fever vaccination is recommended but not required unless you are traveling in between more than one African country. Malaria is known to occur in Tanzania, and malaria prophylaxis is also recommended.
When you put down a deposit for any Wildland Adventure, our destination expert Program Directors will provide detailed information about health precautions and possible immunizations for travel to your destination. Wildland Adventures' staff are not licensed medical professionals, however, we do know the exact areas, environments and conditions under which you will be traveling, all of which can affect the relative risk of exposure and help you make a decision concerning immunizations and prescription medicines. All travelers should consult their physician or a travel health clinic and refer to the Center for Disease Control website for complete information on health considerations in your destination. Back to Top
Yes, travel to East Africa can be incredibly rewarding for families. We provide excellent kid friendly guides and try to limit the amount of time spent in a vehicle on all of our family safaris in East Africa. There are always opportunities for stops along the way to interact in local communities and visit markets or schools. For families with children 7 years and up, Tanzania and Kenya are excellent introductions into East African culture and wildlife while Uganda, Rwanda and Ethiopia are recommended for children 10 years and older. Back to Top
If we are able to pair you up with another single traveler willing to share accommodation then there will be no additional single supplement. However, if we are unable to find a suitable match prior to your trip departure then the single supplement fee will apply. Back to Top
In Tanzania the local currency is the shilling (TSH) and the exchange rate to the U.S. dollar is around 1,500:1. Kenya's currency is the Kenyan shilling (KSH) and the exchange rate to the U.S. dollar is around 80:1. Rwanda's currency is the Rwandan franc (RWF) and the exchange rate to the U.S. dollar is around 600:1. Uganda's currency is the Ugandan shilling (UGX) and the exchange rate to the U.S. dollar is around 2,300:1. Ethiopia's currency is the Ethiopian birr (ETB) and the exchange rate to the U.S. dollar is around 17:1. U.S. dollars and credit cards are accepted at many of the hotels and lodges however the exchange rate is generally not as favorable compared to an exchange borough. How much cash you will need on hand depends largely upon where you are going and how much time you will be in country. For a typical 10-12 day safari we recommend brining at least $350-500 USD total per person and exchanging $150-200 USD per person into local currency at the airport or at an exchange burrow in one of the major cities. Back to Top
You can use a credit card to pay for extra hotel charges in Nairobi, Entebbe, Kigali and Arusha, but it's difficult to use a credit card outside of major cities. Remember that charges will be in local currency so your credit card company may charge you a fee in addition to a poor exchange rate. Local currency of USD is the easiest form of payment in East Africa.. Back to Top
Electricity is supplied at all lodges and at most permanent tented camps, however it is not available at mobile camps. Generators are run during the day to recharge video or digital camera batteries. In lodges and hotels (where it is available) electrical current is 220 or 240 volts and the outlet is a type-G British three-pin rectangular pronged plug. You will need a plug adapter and a converter may be required for some American devices, while others (computer, camera, cell phone) usually can handle up to 240 volts. Make sure to double check the voltage requirements of your device and bring a converter if necessary. Back to Top
Tap water is generally unsafe in East Africa and it's recommended that you drink only bottled water which is widely available and relatively inexpensive. Bottled water is provided in the safari vehicles for all of our game drives and in the bathrooms at the lodges for brushing your teeth. Back to Top
In major cities (Arusha, Nairobi, Entebbe, Kigali) some lodges or major hotels do have internet access but it is slow and not reliable. Outside of major cities you may find an internet connection but it's speed will likely be extremely slow and frustrating. Plan to unplug while on an East Africa safari! Back to Top
This is a good question for your cell phone service provider. To work internationally, you'll most likely need a cell phone which uses a "GSM" network which is most widely used globally. In the U.S. AT&T and T-Mobile operate GSM networks while Verizon Wireless, Sprint, and several smaller carriers such as U.S. Cellular use the "CDMA" network which has less worldwide coverage than GSM. You'll want to check with your service provider regarding international coverage and make sure you understand exactly what you'll be charged for making calls and, if you have a smart phone, for using data (email/internet). Rates can be extremely expensive and we've heard horror stories of travelers returning home to find unexpectedly large bills for using their phone while traveling. Due to this, we generally recommend you unplug and don't use your cell phone while traveling. Your guides will be able to give you the best options for calling home and loved ones can contact you using the local phone numbers we provide on your final itinerary or Wildland's 24-hour emergency number.We recommend reviewing CNET's World Phone Guide for more information on international cell phone coverage. Back to Top
International airfare is not included in our prices for East Africa safaris. If you are going on safari in Tanzania, KLM is the best carrier as they are the only carrier who has non-stop flights into Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) outside of Arusha where most of our safari tours commence. If you are flying to Nairobi, Kenya there are many options including KLM, British, and Virgin Atlantic. For flights to Kigali, Rwanda KLM has daily non-stop flights from Amsterdam, many other airlines connect through Nairobi. To Entebbe, Uganda, Brussels Airlines has non-stop flights from Europe and many other airlines connect through Nairobi. Most of these airlines are partner airlines with U.S. carriers so you may be able to use airline miles or book your entire flight itinerary through a U.S. airline. While Wildland Adventures does not book international airfare directly, we are pleased to provide a quote and schedule for your international air with our partners at Exito Travel, a leader in air travel worldwide. They offer highly competitive fares along with the knowledge to book the best airlines, routing and schedule for your Wildland Adventure. Contact your destination Program Director for more information. Back to Top
Certainly. Our safaris can be customized to focus on birding, photography, wildlife or other general interests of the participants. In fact, nearly all itineraries are developed based on the desires of our customers. Our safaris provide the perfect adventure for families, couples or individuals and we are happy to cater to special interests and requests. Back to Top

Unfractionated heparin
Low-molecular-weight heparins
Direct thrombin inhibitors
Anticoagulants are often called "blood
thinners," although they don't really thin blood. They decrease the blood's
ability to clot.
Anticoagulants are given in the hospital during
unstable angina or a
heart attack, because they can prevent clots from
becoming larger and blocking coronary arteries. They are often given with other
anticlotting medicines to help prevent or reduce heart muscle damage.
Anticoagulants can help prevent another heart attack and lower the risk of dying soon after a heart attack.1
Anticoagulants for a heart attack are given in the hospital. So a person is watched closely for any side effects.
The most common side effect is bleeding inside the body.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug
Reference is not available in all systems.)
Anticoagulants might be used after a person goes home from the hospital after a heart attack. These medicines can lower the risk of another heart attack, and they can lower the risk of stroke. For this long-term use, another type of anticoagulant, such as warfarin, is typically used.
When you take anticoagulants at home, you need to take extra steps to avoid bleeding problems. If you take warfarin, see:

Reeling - Rene Rodriguez
The Family (R)
If The Sopranos had ended with Tony turning informant and being whisked away into the witness protection program, The Family could have been a big-screen sequel to the TV show. As the movie opens, Giovanni Monzani (Robert DeNiro) is living under the alias Fred Blake in France with his wife, Maggie (Michelle Pfeiffer), and two kids, Warren (John D'Leo) and Belle (Glee's Dianna Agron). They are moving to a small town after being found out in their previous hideout on the French Riviera.
The children are complaining about the long road trip and the rank smell inside the car. Fred tells them they should have given their German Shepherd a bath before they left. But a couple of scenes later, we find out the reason for the stench is a corpse Fred stashed in the trunk. Once everyone has gone to sleep, he buries the body in the middle of nowhere.
That opening bit is strongly reminiscent of GoodFellas, one of the many movies director Luc Besson ( The Fifth Element, The Professional) references in sly, funny ways. Adapted from Tonino Benacquista's farcical novel Malavita, The Family is the rare breed of pitch-black comedy that uses violence seriously or comically, depending on the situation.
The Blakes are under the protective eye of a CIA agent (Tommy Lee Jones) who is increasingly exasperated by Fred's refusal to behave. The former mobster finds a typewriter in the new house and decides to write his memoirs, recounting his criminal past in detail. Writing soothes him, fills his time. But when a plumber tries to fleece him for repairs, he breaks the man's leg in seven places. And after he finds out the reason the tap water in the house is brown has to do with a nearby chemical processing plant, he builds a bomb.
Fred isn't the only member of the family with a killer instinct. When Maggie goes to the grocery store and overhears the owner trash-talking Americans in French, she pays for her items with a smile, then blows up the place on her way out. In high school, Warren quickly builds his own network of intimidation, exacting sweet and clever revenge on the kids who bullied him. (D'Leo is terrific in the role, reminiscent of a teenage Joe Pesci who hasn't yet started stabbing people in the neck with a pen.) Belle is an even tougher cookie, doling out the hurt at some boys who think American girls are all sluts.
The Family is the first English-language movie Besson has directed since 1999's The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc, but he has written and produced a slew of action pictures in the meantime ( Taken, The Transporter, Colombiana). This movie has a striking visual style, but Besson's primary focus is on his characters. He balances humor and drama with surgical precision, making us love this crazy family and fear for their safety. The movie is a cartoon, but the stakes are surprisingly real.
Pfeiffer gets to mine the menacing aspect of her beauty — she's always seemed a little dangerous — and DeNiro, who lately has been going through the motions, seems fully engaged and excited by this role. Fred affords the actor an opportunity to strike a broad range of notes, including a wonderful sequence in which the movie enters meta-territory that would make Martin Scorsese cheer.
The Family climaxes with an extremely suspenseful shootout that leaves a high body count and wracked nerves in its wake. But what you remember most are the funny bits and the unconditional love these twisted family members have for each other. The Addamses have nothing on the Blakes. Just pray they don't move in next door.

Richard Beeston, Diplomatic Editor and James Bone in New York

BRITAIN'S crisis with Iran deepened last night after Iran's Foreign Minister accused a group of captured British servicemen of committing an act of "aggression", only hours after Tony Blair appealed for their release.

"The charge against them is their illegal entrance into Iranian territorial waters," Manouchehr Mottaki, the Foreign Minister, told a press conference in New York.
In a telephone conversation with Mr Mottaki last night Margaret Beckett, the Foreign Secretary, "made extremely clear our view that our personnel were operating in Iraqi waters, called for their immediate return, and asked for immediate consular access to them", a spokesman said

The Lions still aren't saying whether rookie defensive end Ziggy Ansah suffered a concussion at some point in the past week or so. But there's still no sign of the fifth overall pick in the draft.
Via Josh Katzenstein of the Detroit News, the latest evidence comes via Ansah's absence from the team's annual kickoff luncheon on Wednesday afternoon.
Ansah has missed three straight practices, and coach Jim Schwartz has exercised his prerogative to say nothing about any player injury prior to the Wednesday preceding the regular-season opener.
When it comes to concussions, maybe the NFL should have a different approach. Last year, the Redskins were able to conceal a concussion sustained by linebacker London Fletcher. While the rules permit concealment of any and all preseason injuries, external scrutiny of the manner in which teams and players handle concussions is necessary, given the way concussions allegedly, reportedly, and/or actually have been mishandled in the past.
This isn't about strategic considerations or ensuring a level playing field for gamblers. Concussions have become one of the most significant injuries in all of football. The NFL fails in its objective to encourage openness and candor on concussions at all levels of football by giving its teams the ability in the preseason to hide the fact that a player has suffered one.

Web Server includes a new administration framework that provides enhanced distributed management across servers in a server farm. Robust administration capabilities enable Web Servers to be managed and deployed remotely using both graphical and command-line interfaces. Servers can be managed on a central location in a server farm and distributed to one or more nodes to create server instances. Monitoring and lifecycle management of these server instances are also provided.
Web Server is configured to enable you to turn various features on or off, determine how to respond to individual client requests, and write programs that run on and interact with the server's operation. The instructions (called directives) that identifies these options are stored in configuration files. Web Server reads the configuration files on startup and during client requests to map your choices with the desired server activity.
For more information about these files, see the Web Server Administrator's Configuration File Reference Guide.
In Web Server all configurable elements of a server instance like web applications, configuration files, and search collection indexes are logically grouped and termed as a Configuration. A Configuration can be created, modified or deleted using CLI or the web based administration interface. You can manage more then one Configuration at a time. The term Configuration also refers to the set of metadata that configures the runtime services of the server. For example, a runtime service serves web pages from a configured document root. The configuration metadata is used by the server runtime to load built-in services, third party plug-ins and setup other server extensions such as database drivers for serving web pages and dynamic web applications.
All the Configuration related files are stored in a repository in your file system called as Configuration Store. You must refrain from manually editing any of the files in this repository unless explicitly specified in this guide.
In Web Server, any change to the Configuration using the CLI or through the web-based administration interface is first made to the Configuration Store and then the Configuration is deployed. Consequently the changes are copied to the instance directory. When a web application is deployed it gets deployed under:
When you deploy a configuration, the entire web application directory and configuration directory under config-store is zipped up and copied to the server instance directory. This file is the current.zip file under:
Depending on the size of the web application, deploying a selected configuration might take some time to complete.
The following figure shows a schematic diagram of how Configurations are deployed to Administration Nodes:
When you deploy a Configuration to a Node (Network resource, such as server or a host), an Instance of that Configuration is created. The instance contains log files and other runtime files such as lock databases, caches and temporary files that are required by the instance. You can manage these instances through the CLI or web based administration interface.
Instances can also span across one or more nodes to form a Cluster. All nodes that form a cluster must have identical configuration and be homogeneous. They must have the same operating system, be identically configured, and offer the same services.
One node in the server farm has a server running on which the administration application is deployed. This specially configured server is called the Administration Server and the administration application that is deployed is the web-based Administration Console. You use the Administration Console to control the lifecycle of server instances.
The Administration Server controls the actions of other servers in that node called as Administration Nodes. An administration node does not provide a GUI interface. One node in the server farm has the Administration Server installed. All other nodes in the server farm have Administration Nodes installed. An administration Node is registered with an Administration Server upon installation. This action will make the Administration Server aware of that Administration Node.
The Administration server and the administration node always communicate over SSL. The Administration Server and Administration Node authenticate each other by the Administration Server trusting the Administration Node's server certificate and the Administration Node trusting the client certificate presented by the Administration Server. During registration of an Administration Node, the Administration Server will generate a server certificate for that Administration Node, which is then downloaded and installed on the Administration Node. The issuer of the server certificate is also installed on the Administration Node.

Today we're going to look at which heirlooms you should purchase for your leveling alts. A couple of weeks ago I covered Enchanting Your Heirlooms, so I'll refer you back to that post if you have already purchased heirlooms and would like to look into the various ways that you can enhance their performance via enchants and item enhancements.
Equipment Lists
I'm going to make a list of heirlooms for each class individually, and I will mention certain items that would work better for certain specs as well. I will tell you right now though, that while I have leveled most classes to a significant leveling milestone, I have not played every class and every spec. So if you see me suggest an item for your class because I know you're looking for Spell Power, but you feel it would be better for you to go with another because it has Spirit as well as Spell Power, then go with your gut as you may very well know that particular class better than I do.
What I am going to have is a list of weapons, chests, and shoulders for you to use in each of your different specs, and a (hopefully) short explanation of why. In some cases there may be multiple suggestions made for a particular slot, particularly when it comes to weapons. The reason for this will generally be because there are multiple builds that people use for that class, or because certain equipment options aren't available until a higher level. A good example of this is the Enhancement Shaman who benefits more from a large two-hand weapon until level 40 when they can dual wield one-handers, or the Warrior who may dual wield one-handers until level 60 and then dual wield two-handers from there on.
Under each class header you'll find the list of gear that I suggest and prefer. There will also be a Substitutions list which are items that I consider to be reasonable replacements for the items I suggest in case you already have some of those and would rather not purchase others, or in case you have more of one currency than another and can't afford all of the recommended pieces.

Why am I a Twins fan?
Scott over at I'm Not a Headline Guy wrote a lovely entry explaining his devotion to the New York Yankees. And it got me to thinking about my beloved Twinkies, and, well, why they're my beloved Twinkies. Of course, a lot of it has to do with the 1987 World Series, which I am just barely old enough to remember. Nobody expected the '87 Twins to win it all, and with good reason I might add. They finished with a mediocre 85-77 record, which was good enough to win the weak AL West division, but was the worst winning percentage of any playoff-bound team in history (a record that would stand until the 83-78 Cardinals won it all in 2006). The 98-64 Detroit Tigers were heavily favored to win the AL pennant, with most analysts predicting a sweep of the supposedly hapless Twins. Instead it was the Twins who nearly pulled off a sweep of their own, beating the Tigers four games to one to clinch the ALCS and advance to the World Series for the first time since 1965. Once again, the Twinkies were up against a heavily-favored opponent in the St. Louis Cardinals, who were about to make their third World Series appearance in six years. And once again the Twins would pull off a stunning upset, beating the Cards in seven games and clinching their first World Series title since moving to Minnesota in 1961 (and second in team history). Frank Viola, Kirby Puckett, Dan Gladden, Gary Gaetti, all those guys on that team would become great heroes in Minnesota sports history.
And then there was the '91 World Series, the greatest World Series of all-time. This Series had everything: dramatic walk-off home runs, fantastic pitching performances from youngsters Tom Glavine and John Smoltz and veteran Jack Morris, wrestling (Braves fans still haven't quite gotten over that one), a new MLB record for extra-innings WS games, and two teams that had finished in last place in their respective divisions the previous season. This time around the Twins weren't exactly considered underdogs, having finished the regular season with a 95-67 record. They steamrolled over the Blue Jays in the ALCS, winning four games to one on the way to their second World Series title in four years.
The Braves would prove to be a much more challenging opponent, however, and the Twins would have to grind out five one-run games and three extra-innings games before clinching the title. The most dramatic game of the series, however, had to be game six. The Twins were facing elimination, having dropped three straight games to Atlanta, including a 14-5 blowout in game five. The Twins took a 3-2 lead into the seventh inning, when Atlanta 2B Mark Lemke scored on a fielder's choice with the bases loaded to tie the game. The score remained even until the bottom of the eleventh, when Kirby Puckett untied the game with a solo shot off of Charlie Leibrandt to left-center field. That shot, and Jack Buck's now-famous call, has to be the single greatest moment of my entire childhood. The Twins would go on to win game seven in ten innings, with a walk-off bloop single by Gene Larkin. Jack Morris pitched a ten-inning masterpiece (yes, you read that right, ten innings) in that game, which to this day is one of the best pitching performances I've ever seen. Good times.
There's been a lot of other good stuff since then, too. The 2002 team was amazingly talented, and looked like they were going to bring us another championship. Alas, it was not to be. The Angels made sure of that. The 2006 team made an incredible late-season run to win the division. Unfortunately that was as far as the Twinkies would go, as they would then get swept by Oakland in the ALDS. They really got under Ozzie Guillen's skin that year, too. That's always fun.
And of course, there's this guy:
Come on, admit it. You know you love him. Even if you aren't a Twins fan.
- I love the Wild, too, even though I complain about them a lot
Hockey in Minnesota is like hockey in Canada. Or football in Texas. It's just what you do. It's what we're good at. If your hockey team has any Americans on it, chances are pretty good that they're from Minnesota. Or that they once played for the Golden Gophers. I started off as a North Stars fan when I was a little kid. They weren't very good for the most part, though they did make a run for the Cup in 1991. But then a very bad man decided to move the team to Dallas after the 1992 season. I was heartbroken. I cried like a little girl (of course, I was a little girl, but that's beside the point). And I was also torn. I wanted to cheer for my Stars, even though they weren't really my Stars anymore, because they took Mike Modano with them. And I loved him. But, like any other bitter divorce, the animosity I felt for my ex-team was too great and I just couldn't get over it. I couldn't bring myself to cheer for any other NHL team either. It just didn't seem right. I was a die-hard hockey fan without a team.
So I decided to fill the hockey void in my life with my hometown Gophers. I mean, they've done some good things:
It just wasn't the same as having a professional hockey team, though. So when the NHL granted Minnesota an expansion franchise to open for the 2000-2001 season, I was absolutely thrilled. Though I wasn't crazy about the team name (what the heck's a wild?), or the logo (or the home unis, blech), I was excited to have an NHL franchise back in Minnesota. And though the team itself hasn't exactly lived up to expectations, it's been better than most of the old North Stars teams. And we have new heroes now:
- I root for the Vikings, and to a lesser extent, the Wolves, too
Why? Because somebody has to, that's why. Oh there was a time when the Vikings were good. The Vikings of the late '60s and early '70s were some of the best football teams to never win a championship, but that was before my time. I remember the 1998 Vikes, though I've spent the past ten years trying to forget the NFC Championship game. And the current team is actually pretty good, it's just missing a few key pieces. Like a starting QB. And special teams that can, um, not give up so many touchdowns (I mean really, when your punter is trying to make a tackle you know you're in trouble). And some decent play-calling (which, by the way, helps out the starting QB a lot).
I'm not a huge basketball fan, but I do have a soft spot for the Timberwolves. I kind of feel sorry for them because they suck so bad. It's not their fault, they've been mismanaged for years. And before Al Jefferson went down they had a pretty good shot at being a mediocre team this year. At least they aren't the worst team in the league, so there's that.

Recent graduates of the University of Western Australia have exhibited recent work,Soviet Constructivism. Each student selects a building which encapsulates a significant theoretical position in architectural history. In 2010 the Soviet Avant Garde of constructivism was picked as the epoch of exploration. A model of the chosen example will be made to an agreed scale, which will be accompanied by a written paper of not more than 2000 words. The written component is to be a critical analysis of the treatise or manifesto from which the built form is derived. The critical analysis also serves as a reference point for the realization of three dimensional forms of models.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Something new. Well sort of.
DJ Greg Wilson will be releasing a 15 track Anthology in a 2 CD set scheduled for release August 15 2005.
On this anthology will be a fantastic re-edit of Yello's Lost Again. I have heard many samples and it sounds great.
If you want the track you don't have to wait until the 15th they have already released two 3 track 12" vinyls of tracks from the anthology.
Credit To The Edit (Vinyl One) and Credit To The Edit (Vinyl Two). Vinyl Two has the "Lost Again" re-edit.
Wouldn't say its a re-mix he has more or less chopped it up and put it back together again in his own unique way.
Check out a sample at the link below

We went out caching in the ozark national forest north of Hector. We found two that day and looked for a few more that we could not find. We trid making it to the "blue hole" but never made it. Here are some pictures for your enjoyment. The river is the illinois Bayou. It was a great day to get out of work a little early to go get some geocaching in. We almost had to walk out when it got dark, but fortunately I told someone on the road earlier that we were stuck and they told some people in town and we got pulled out at the last minute. We already had our bag packed ready to go for a long hike back to hector(10+ miles). I guess I'll be saving for a winch soon! I got most of the jeep cleaned out and I can't wait to go geocaching again this comming weekend with my wife and dog!
Have a good week!

South Dakota's Bethany Buell Talks About Her Pole Vault National Championship [VIDEO] [AUDIO]
This was the jump that game USD junior Bethany Buell the national championship in the women's pole vault at the NCAA Track & Field Championships in Eugene, Oregon, Saturday, as she cleared 14 feet, 7 1/4 inches.
She cleared eight different heights en route to the title, and over came some adversity along the way to do it.
Buell is the first USD athlete in the Division I era to win a national championship. She's the first Coyote to win a title at any level since Emma Erickson's Division II win in the 800 meters in 2008.
Buell accomplished it all with less than a full season of jumping due to a torn ligament in her left shoulder. But with the help of pole vault coach Derek Miles, that pain was nothing compared to the joy of winning in Eugene.
Buell's teammate Emily Grove took seventh in the event.
