|Internships/Career Placement
An academic internship is a valuable and integral component of a BYU-Idaho education. In most cases, an academic internship is a required element for both associate's and bachelor's programs. A BYU-Idaho academic internship is a cooperative program between the university and approved Experience Providers (employers).
The purpose of an internship is to obtain practical and valuable work experience, to apply skills and knowledge learned in school, and to gain exposure to various job opportunities. Many internships are paid experiences and typically last one academic semester in length. Students are generally encouraged to complete a full-time academic internship.
The Internship Office located in Kimball 244 is the central location to help organize, promote, and coordinate the internship process. The Internship Office is to help with legal problems, act as a resource center, ensure academic consistency, coordinate internship information, and assist with paperwork. A faculty internship coordinator has also been assigned to each academic department/major to assist with the understanding and arrangement of each academic internship experience.
Listed below are general academic internship guidelines:
1) The internship must be directly related to a student's major or field of study.
2) The faculty department internship coordinator, as well as the university internship director must approve the internship.
3) The internship must be for academic credit using the 198/298/398/498 course numbers. The faculty internship coordinator must approve academic credit.
4) Students registering for academic internship credit must follow all registration guidelines and deadlines.
5) Specifically defined learning objectives, Experience Provider supervision, reports, and a signed Student Internship Agreement between the student and the faculty department internship coordinator are necessary to qualify for internship credit.
For additional information regarding academic internships, please visit our website at http://www2.byui.edu/internships, or contact the BYU-Idaho Internship Office at (208) 496-2290 or at email@example.com.
The Career Placement Office assists students and alumni of BYU-Idaho with career employment. Services include help with résumé writing, letter writing, interviewing, job leads, and career counseling. Computers, a laser printer, and graphic paper are available to help in writing professional résumés and business letters. Also available are company information and recruitment bulletins.
The Career Placement Office is located in Kimball 244 and is open 8-5 Monday through Friday. Students are invited to visit at their convenience or call 496-2170 for an appointment with one of the counselors.

So after a season of hard beekeeping I am ready to quit,,,,,again. But must push through and get the mites knocked down ect ect. I was trying to decide what to use, and it looks like those crazy Canadians are having good luck with OA vaporization. The problem for guys with many hives is time and ease of treatment.
say 600 hives times 60sec treatment plus a minute or two of set up per hive, plus multiple treatments plus multiple trips to out yards = too much time!!!
My question is .....has anyone played with a suspension of OA in FGMO ran through a fogger? I know OA will not disolve in FGMO but I wonder if a suspension would work? How much OA are we using per hive?

Trixie 5-in-1 Activity Center for Cats (11.75" x 15".5")
Product Details
About this item
Cats are cleaver and inquisitive animals. Channel their curiosity with TRIXIE's 5-in-1 Activity Center. This game includes five different modules, each with a game designed to stimulate each of your cat's five senses.
Globe resembles a fish bowl and requires your cat to fish the treat out with her paw. Because cats aren't able to see close moving objects in as much detail as humans, they'll need to rely on their sense of smell and hearing. Peg allows the cat to make out the treat visually from a distance, and then map out a strategy to retrieve it. Alley gives the playful option of lying down while poking and scooping treats out with their paws, claws or even toes. Tongue is suited for liquid treats since the slits hinder the cat from using their paws. Last but not least, Tunnel's mouse hole is ideal for stalking and poking at toys and treats hiding inside. We've also included an instructional booklet with tips and tricks to stimulate your cat's sense of curiosity through play.
It's dishwasher safe!

|When Epidemics Collide: OCD and AIDS
By Fred Penzel, Ph.D.
Our planet is currently in the throes of a major health crisis. I am referring to AIDS. The average person's life has been influenced in a number of ways by this modem-day plague. Unlike previous decades, individuals no longer feel as free to have unprotected or casual sex. Medical and dental facilities have become far more careful about disease control. Blood supplies must be constantly screened. Police now wear gloves when searching certain suspects, as do food workers when serving meals.
There is also a place where this epidemic unfortunately crosses paths with another, less well-known epidemic: Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. There are those with OCD who have obsessive thoughts about contracting AIDS, and the results can be extremely punishing. These fears are actually part of a larger group of obsessions about contamination. One of the main features of OCD is that sufferers have difficulty in determining just how risky certain things are. Sufferers often confuse possibility with probability: if something can happen, it will happen, no matter how unlikely. Unfortunately, for those with fears of AIDS, there happens to be a lot of media hysteria concerning the disease and how it can be contracted. As a result, it is not unusual for even the average individual to have unreasonable fears of people with AIDS. Even so, the average person's worries still do not tend to be as exaggerated or illogical as those of someone with OCD.
OCD sufferer's notions of how the disease can be contracted don't usually stop at the three most common ways: sharing infected needles, having unprotected sex, and receiving contaminated blood transfusions (which all happen to be direct blood-to-blood contacts). For the obsessively doubtful, almost anything that anyone else has touched can become a potential source of the disease.
The following situations are quite typical of this type of OCD, and are seen as high risks for contracting AIDS:
This list is by no means complete.
A common variation on the fear of get-ting AIDS is the fear of contracting it, giving it to someone else, and then having to live with the guilt of having caused an innocent person's death. These sufferers may also have other problems with feeling overly responsible for others, another main theme among those with OCD. For these people, you could add this to the list above:
Getting and staying uncontaminated can be an excruciating 24-hour-a-day job. When sufferers are contaminated, they worry about getting perfectly clean. When clean, they worry about staying that way. They can only begin to feel comfortable when they are in control of everyone and everything around them. They wash and shower to excess when they believe they have touched something containing the AIDS virus, and they can often be spotted by their bright red, chapped hands. They will usually only touch feared things using barriers such as tissues, paper towels, or gloves. Every little cut or scratch may have to be covered with medication and a Band-Aid to keep the virus out. Anything possibly contaminated must be washed or disinfected, or else it must be thrown out. (Actually, most of these descriptions could be applied to the majority of people with contamination fears.)
To try to make this impossible task easier to manage, sufferers create "dirty" and "clean" worlds for themselves. They have places they can go and things they can do only when they are in a "contaminated state." The same is true for when they feel "clean." Certain rooms or locations can only be entered when sufferers themselves are "clean." One of my patients even had a "clean" car and a "dirty" car. When family members fall under a sufferer's control, they have to wash and change clothes whenever they enter the house, or else face a lot of upset or arguing.
Obviously, all this gets to be debilitating as the disorder takes over. Leaving the house can become extremely difficult. Some people stop socializing, or stop going to work or to school. In addition, sufferers tend to avoid or put off needed visits to physicians and dentists, and they may develop other health problems. In reality, all of the above are solutions designed to escape the doubt and anxiety, but they only end up helping in the short run. Unfor-tunately, in the long run, as sufferers use these methods, they only train themselves to be better avoiders who keep their fears going. Avoiding only convinces them that the fears are real, and it prevents them from actually seeing that the dreaded consequences never occur. Ironically, what starts out as a way to help control the anxiety ends up controlling and damaging their lives via a downward spiral of fear and avoidance. For those who do not suffer from these anxieties, it is difficult to appreciate just how gut-wrenching and debilitating they can be.
So, what do you do to get out of this kind of predicament? The answer (one that sufferers do not usually want to hear) is to learn to face the fearful obsessive thoughts while resisting the compulsions to escape and avoid. Behavior therapy is the key to accomplishing this. If you are a regular reader of this newsletter, you probably know that the type of behavioral therapy known as Exposure and Response Prevention (E&RP) is presently the best and most thoroughly proven way to do this. Success rates have been shown to be 75 percent or better.
E&RP is a retraining process. Basically, sufferers are encouraged to allow them-selves to be more and more unclean for longer periods of time as they try to carry out a growing number of average activities when they are "contaminated." By staying with what they fear, sufferers gradually become accustomed to acting in more normal ways in everyday situations, and they slowly begin to trust the idea that nothing catastrophic will happen. They learn that they can allow the fear to subside on its own, without taking any special actions, and that they can rely on this to happen. Double-checking, questioning, and asking others for reassurance or help in cleaning are discouraged and gradually eliminated. Friends and relatives are instructed to not participate or assist in these activities. They are shown that rather than helping or easing the suf-ferer's anxiety, they are only contributing to keeping that person in a helpless state.
The therapy process can sometimes be tricky as sufferers' obsessions work over-time to create more doubts about these issues. They ask, "How can doing the things I fear will give me AIDS help me to feel less anxious today, since it could take 10 years to find out if I will develop AIDS?" The answer, of course, is that the problem they are having doesn't really exist in the future, but within their own faulty judgment about taking risks in the present. OCD is not just a set of biological or behavioral problems, it is also a set of information-processing problems. Learning to challenge illogical thinking is another important part of the process. I like to ask patients if there is any scientific evidence to support their self-protective actions, or any reports of AIDS contracted according to their special theories. I also question why average persons don't live as self-destructively as the sufferer lives, yet manage to live just as long. Sometimes sufferers will answer: "Most people are ignorant. If they knew what I know, they would do as I do." When questioned as to where they get their unique information from, they of course cannot point to anything other than the same TV shows or news articles available to the rest of the population. When pressed, some severe sufferers will even admit that having AIDS couldn't be much worse than the personal hell they have created for themselves.
Working with a trained behavior therapist, either in an intensive daily program or in weekly sessions, you practice doing the things you fear to do. At the start of therapy, you work with the therapist to construct a list of all the places and activities that would give you difficulty if you stayed with them and didn't avoid. Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 100. This list is known as a hierarchy. Next, a program of behavioral assignments is laid out for you, based upon the listing you have made. No one forces you to do things or surprises you. Typical homework assignments may include the following: (these are in no special order):
This last type of assignment is gradually made more anxiety-provoking, and is designed to increase your tolerance of your obsessive thoughts to the point where you can feel free to disregard them. Not washing, wiping, or otherwise undoing assignments after they are carried out is extremely important. To do so would be to cancel out any benefit they may have.
Medication can often be important to overcoming OCD. It should not be an end in itself, but should be seen as a tool to help you take part in therapy. It can provide a level of improvement from which to begin working. Not everyone requires it, but there are many who could not carry out behavioral assignments without the symptom relief it provides. It may also reduce feelings of depression, which can then result in a person feeling energetic and having a more posi-tive and motivated attitude about working toward a recovery. Antidepressant drugs such as Anafranil, Prozac, Paxil, Zoloft, Luvox, Celexa, Serzone, and Effexor are all currently being used to relieve the symptoms of OCD and depression. There is no best drug as everyone responds differently to them. Medication for OCD has been discussed in other articles in past issues, so I will not go into further detail here.
Recovery from this problem is possible. Many have already achieved it. Don't feel helpless or give up hope. Find your-self a behavior therapist trained in the use of E&RP, as well as an experienced psychiatrist if you need one. Don't assume that every practitioner is qualified to treat OCD. Be a good consumer and find out how many cases of OCD they have actually treated and if they use the most up-to-date approaches. Call the OC Foundation for names of practitioners in your area, or get names at a local OCD support group.

One boy has died and another is missing after the young brothers were swept away in the Merced River at Yosemite National Park on Wednesday.
Yosemite park officials said Thursday the two were part of a family visiting from Southern California that had been hiking the popular Mist Trail near the Vernal Fall Footbridge.
Group members were cooling off in the river Wednesday when a strong current carried the boys away down a treacherous, boulder-strewn stretch of water.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
Park visitors were able to pull the 10-year-old from the river about 150 yards downstream, but efforts to resuscitate him failed. He was pronounced dead around 3 p.m. Wednesday.
Authorities are still searching an 8-mile stretch of the river for his 6-year-old brother, who is missing and presumed dead.
Park officials say the Mist Trail remains open during search and rescue operations but portions may close depending upon developments.
The boys were part of group of about 15 extended family members who made the short hike to the footbridge, park spokesman Scott Gediman said. While signs at the trailhead warn that the river can be dangerous, people often are drawn to the water's edge.
"We've got a low-water year this year, and around the banks it's only 8 to 10 inches deep, but once you get our further, we have a swift current and it gets deeper,'' Gediman said. "They both got swept away by the current.'
The trail is one of the most popular but often most perilous hikes in the park. That's because the river drops down a narrow gorge filled with large boulders and continues to descends to the point where it reaches the brige. The drop in elevation and narrow channel cause the water to move swiftly.
In July of 2011 three people were presumed dead after they fell from the 317-foot Vernal Fall at the park.

House Republicans blocking bills to eliminate tax credits, exemptions
A slew of 11 bills that would eliminate tax credits and exemptions was taking heavy flak from Republicans this morning, who were slowing the measures from getting out of the House Appropriations Committee.
The committee meeting was supposed to be brief, because the bills still are going to be heard at length in the House Finance Committee this afternoon, which historically considers tax policy bills. The House Appropriations Committee was just supposed to refer the bills to the Finance Committee, but Republicans made sure there was plenty of debate on every one of the measures.
"I hope there's no rush on these bills," said Rep. Bob Gardner, R-Colorado Springs, who led Republican opposition to the bills.
Democrats tried to argue the votes on the bill were only procedural, but Rep. Kent Lambert, R-Colorado Springs, said, "Any vote I take in the legislature is more than just procedural."
Gardner, who offered motions kill every one of the bills, held his hands to his head at times and said he was confused about the committee's process and wanted to discuss it more, provoking snickers from the committee room filled with lobbyists and longtime Capitol observers.
Rep. Jack Pommer, D-Boulder, said he didn't believe Gardner, an attorney, was quite as confused as he let on.
"To sit here and pretend this is the first time you've ever been here and you don't know how it works," Pommer said. "I think you're just trying to drag this out for some reason, and that doesn't benefit anybody."
The hearing room also was packed with several dozen Coca-Cola employees, who showed up in red-and-white company uniforms to watch the committee consider a bill that would remove the sales tax exemption on soda and candy. Some groaned angrily when Pommer said that removing the sales tax exemption on soda wouldn't result in decreased sales or any lost jobs.
Gardner particularly objected to one bill that would clarify current law to say that sales tax applies to software downloaded off the internet or installed without a disc being purchased. Gardner argued that such software is not "tangible" property as the Department of Revenue asserts.
Gardner called the argument "intellectual dishonesty."
The committee hearing started at 8:30 a.m., half an hour before the House was to go into session on the floor. Republicans' objections to the bills were clearly going to ensure the committee would not finish the bills before the House convened.
House Democrats were so irritated by Gardner's tactics that, instead of excusing him from being on the floor, they called him absent. That prompted Gardner to ask for a recess at one point, and the committee took a five-minute break while lawmakers tried to iron out the issue.
All of the bills, which were passing on a party line vote, are set to be heard at 1:30 p.m. in the House Finance Committee.
UPDATE: The Appropriations Committee finished referring all the bills to the Finance Committee shortly before 11 a.m.

| 10.7°C Belfast
Children of four will have to sit exams within two weeks of beginning primary school, it was reported.
Tests that pupils currently take at seven to measure their level of development are to be brought forward to the start of the reception year under plans to be announced by the Government, The Times said.
The "baseline" tests are expected to be introduced in 2016 after ministers consulted on the proposals last year.
MPs are examining whether a number of different types of assessments could be approved for four-year-olds, then letting headteachers choose the one most suitable for their school.
Heads may also have the option not to enter pupils at all.
Assessments are intended to measure children's progress throughout their entire time at primary school, but having them at seven removes the motivation for teachers to push younger children to make rapid progress.
Assessing children at four raises the possibility of teachers keeping their test scores low in order to maximise pupils' improvement when they sit national curriculum exams at 11 - the progress being a key measure of a school's performance.
The plans are also likely to rouse fear in parents that tests would cause young children stress and that they may be grouped according to ability, while many experts believe that children are already subjected to too much testing in school.
According to The Times, the Department for Education (DfE) proposed in its consultation paper that the baseline assessments could involve a simple check by a teacher between two and six weeks after a child starts reception year.
Exams for 11-year-olds will also be redesigned to reflect the extra demands of the new national curriculum.
But the ranking of children according to results of new tests that would be taken at the end of primary school have been dropped after a backlash by teachers, The Times said, as have plans to tell parents how their child's score ranked on a national scale after fears it would demotivate those with low scores.

Fence sitting Brooke
Last week, after Kiefer Sutherland decided to smash his head up against another dude's face causing injury – in defence of Brooke Shields – a statement was released on her behalf that effectively sold him out. At the time, she supposedly announced via her publicists that she'd no idea why Kiefer would have reacted that way and that Jack McCollough, the victim of the headbutt, did nothing wrong.
McCollough has already asserted that he was on the receiving end of a violent attack.
Now Brooke has changed her story. Her people claim that those original comments were not authorised. Nearly a week later, she's officially released a statement that plants her firmly on the fence between the two men:
"A number of statements have been attributed to Ms. Shields in the media that are neither true nor authorized. These statements were obviously made by those who were not in attendance at the party and constitute their version of events. While at the party she was bumped into by Jack McCollough and Kiefer Sutherland became concerned. Kiefer has always been a gentleman in her company. Both Jack and Kiefer are friends of Ms. Shields and she regrets this unfortunate situation."
Became concerned?
How does concern turn into ramming your head against someone else's? Apparently Kiefer had his reasons. His attorneys insist he'll be exonerated:
"We are troubled by the untruthful and self-serving information circulating regarding Kiefer Sutherland and events of last Monday evening. We are confident, however, that the investigation being conducted by the Manhattan District Attorney's Office and the NYPD will confirm that Kiefer Sutherland was neither the instigator nor a wrongdoer in this incident."
Let the spin begin!
Here's Kiefer after presenting himself to authorities last week.

Reduce emissions with exact stops and starts
SKF engineer Susanne Blokland and her SKF team have made a key contribution to this technology; the SKF Rotor Positioning Bearing. A magnetic field from this bearing provides the engine control system with the rotor's exact angular position, thus enabling the engine to be conveniently re-started.
The bottom line is significantly reduced CO2 emissions. Up to 30 percent in heavy city traffic. And fuel consumption may be cut proportionally. It's another great example of knowledge engineering at work.

JKabbe necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 550 diseños de 161 diseñadores freelance.
Kabbe Law Group, LLC
We are an elder law and estate planning boutique. Our clients tell us that we're unlike any other lawyers they've met (or even heard of). And that didn't just happen, it's by design. We're caring and responsive in ways our clients don't expect. We're cutting edge, trying to advance the profession beyond just providing documents.
We help people (particularly seniors) protect their assets and their families. Our clients are of all ages, but we primarily target successful people in the 50-65 age range.
We are looking for a logo that is something other than the typical boring law firm logo (so no stylized letters or block letters, no gavels, no courthouses, no stone columns). See below for our core themes that emphasize the feel we are looking for.
There's a possibility that we will be changing our firm name within 2-4 years. So while the firm name can be adjacent to the logo, our initials and name should not be used as part of the logo. We also sometimes use "The Kabbe Law Group, LLC" as the name (adding "The"). So feel free to use whichever you prefer in the design.
What we want:
1. A logo with color but that also looks good in greyscale (it won't always be printed in color)
2. A logo that looks just as good at 10cm x 10cm as it does at 2cm by 2cm (so probably not too much tiny detail)
Core themes:
1. A transformational experience for our clients
2. Peace of mind and confidence in tomorrow
3. Protecting seniors (and our other clients) and their money
4. Warmth (it should be a cozy, in front of fireplace on a cold day feeling of security and confidence -- not a sword and shield kind of protection)
Please do not consider any of the above comments limiting in any way, but they do accurately describe the "feel" that we're looking for and how we plan to use the logo(s).

Four days after the release of a video that appears to show Dekalb County Sheriff's deputies physically and verbally assaulting an Ellenwood family inside their home, the man who recorded the video says his family is still seeking justice.
The video shows police violently banging on the door of what the residents say is the wrong house and then berating the occupants, including threatening to "tase the sh*t out of" them, once they are let inside. The family says they were also physically assaulted during the incident.
Spokesmen from the sheriff's department have disputed the claims of physical violence and maintained that they had a valid warrant for the arrest of one of the home's occupants. Dekalb County Sheriff Tom Brown did say that the "verbal lashing" given to the family by deputies was uncalled-for.
"Their comments were inappropriate," Brown told the Daily World. "It set Black people back 45 years. It just simply is not the standard that I expect from any of my deputies in the Dekalb County Sheriff's Office. I'm going to have to retrain and where appropriate give appropriate discipline."
But Donovan Hall, the man behind the camera during the incident that took place on July 26, says that nothing has been done to make the family feel like the law is on their side. In fact, Hall told the Daily World he attempted to file an Internal Affairs complaint after the episode but has not yet received a response.
"No one has returned any of our messages, no one has returned any of our calls, nothing," said Hall. "We have received no communication from the police or the sheriff's department since this has happened."
The sheriff's department released a statement Friday announcing that the incident along with the deputies involved would be the subject of an investigation. Spokesman Kyle Jones said in the statement that the department is very close to completing the investigation, which includes a review of the standard operating procedures under which the arrest warrant in question was executed.
Brown added that since the video was released his office has gathered a wealth of new information, including listening to the 911 dispatch call made from the house and police radio correspondence between officers.
Brown said the new information shows that his deputies were clearly at the right house and he believes that aside from the vulgar language, they acted properly.
"They are still on duty," Brown said, "and based on what I know at this particular point I don't see any reason to remove them from duty."
He insisted that claims made by Hall and members of his family that deputies body slammed him, stood on his head and hit him in the face with the butt of a gun are all untrue.
"At no time was anybody in that house physically abused," Brown said.
The event has moved Hall to push for action against the deputies, but he said that this was not the first time his family has had a negative experience with DeKalb County officers.
Two years ago, Hall said, police accused them of squatting at the home. After Hall said his mother produced documentation proving ownership of the house, things got even worse.
"They stole my mother's ID and left for three hours," he said. "My mom called the police department asking to speak to the sergeant or someone to come out to talk to her. A few hours later a lieutenant came out an apologized for everything that happened."
Hall said a department spokesperson told him there were concerns that members of the family were not legal citizens, but those were eventually allayed. He said an investigation into the behavior of the two officers involved was opened, but two years later it has still not been solved.
"I believe it definitely fueled what happened [that night]," he said. "Our life has been hell since the day that happened."
The July 26 incident, which was caught on video and has gotten nearly 600,000 views so far, stemmed from a $1,000 civil arrest order for Hall's mother, Natania Griffin. Hall says that the original amount was paid, but additional fees were added with no explanation. The fee was not paid, which led to a warrant being issued for Griffin's arrest and the subsequent action.
According to Hall, others harassed by the sheriff's department have begun reaching out to him and his family since the video went viral.
"Since this has been getting so much attention people have been reaching out to us left and right," he said. "People have been telling us about stories that they have of police brutality. We realize that this is not only our story and we need to bring this to the attention of national news so this can stop."
Brown said that the department will complete its investigation no later than Tuesday and vowed to take "appropriate corrective actions when the facts justify them." He said he has not spoken with Hall or his family and did not say that such a conversation would be a part of the investigation.

The sound of nails on a chalkboard is hair-raising. You can't say the same for the opposite though, because before Ciaté's Chalkboard Manicure came along, you wouldn't even be able to imagine chalkboards on a person's nails. This unusual nail kit features a black chalkboard base coat, a clear top coat, and four chalk pens that come in white, blue, green, and pink colors. It doesn't come with an eraser though, so go light on the chalk because you can't wipe your mistakes off as easily.
Ciaté's Chalkboard Manicure kit will be released later this month.

Aimee Song of Song of Style and Monica Botkier trooped on down to Miami last week to hang out for an inspiration tour as part of the 2011 Vogue Eyewear CFDA City Collection project. Botkier will be introducing our first ever sunglass design in October 2011 which will be sold at Sunglass Huts everywhere! In particular we were thrilled to see how Aimee Song took our accessories: eyewear and bags, in our inspirational city of Miami and in turn inspired us with her styling. See her looks below and for more info and Aimee's take on the trip go to http://songofstyle.blogspot.com
On South Beach with our Eden small satchel in multi-color, Holiday Resort 2011.
South Beach in the afternoon, Aimee is rocking out with color! We love this look, she is wearing the Misha clutch in red, Holiday Resort 2011.
Aimee and Monica keeping cool in the shade of the palms on South Beach. Monica is wearing dear friend and fave designer Tucker polka dot wrap dress.
Behind the scenes of the shoot, notice the tattooed forearm of the photo assistant camera right. That breeze felt good but the reflection board was pure torture shooting silver hard light right into our eyes (yes on purpose! suffer for beauty even on film)
Joe's Stone Crab, definitely a highlight of the shoot. We had to eat their yummy specialty of Stone Crabs over and over and over again! Then they bought out the hash browns and we were ready for a nap!!
The beautiful Aimee Song towards the end of the shoot outside The Webster, talk about inspiring – fashion, food, architecture, books. Our kind of one stop shop! After shooting for 12 hours in the heat we were beyond thrilled to take it all in. Amazing can't wait to go back!

Bad news first – on March 1st of last year DraftKings discontinued the use of promo codes and any code you've seen on other websites or whatever is NOT going to get you anything extra.

If You are not familiar with DraftKings and their games – here is a very quick summary who they are and what they have to offer. I'm almost sure this is probably not necessary since they have been around for a while and have been heavily promoted on TV and in the news but still I'm going to mention a few things about them.
DraftKings is a USA based company operating out of Boston, MA that is establishing itself as the leader of fantasy sports. DraftKings is the top destinations for fantasy football, fantasy basketball, fantasy baseball, golf, NASCAR and hockey. There are many choices when it comes to playing fantasy sports but what separates DraftKings from the pack is their huge pool of games each and every day with the highest prizes in the Fantasy Sports industry. There are literally thousands of different contests with entry fees starting at only 25 cents and going all the way up to $10000. And yes, they do offer quite a few of everybody's favorite "freeroll" games which are 100% free.
So what games are out there at DraftKings.com?
1) Tournaments – this is where you get a chance to win big. The entry fees here are usually low and the prizes are high. During the 2019 football season DraftKings will be offering a shot to win $1 Million every week with an entry fee of $20.
2) 50-50's – These type of fantasy games are pretty simple and fun. Here basically the top 50% of the entries will win almost double the buy-in fee. Example – if there are 100 people in a contest and the entry fee is $10 , the top 50 will win $18 ( the $2 difference is the "juice" , the commission DraftKings is getting for hosting the game)
3) Head-to-head – As you probably guessed already in this type of game you play head to head with another player in a winner takes all format. The entry fees are various from just $1 up to $10000 and there are always a lot of available contest. Also you can easily create your very own one and play against a friend or a stranger if you'd like.
These are the main and most played contest available, there are also the "multiplier" and "satellites" but the most popular ones are the tournaments. 50/50 and head-to-head. You should really take a close look at each one's rules and scoring before starting playing and to get yourself familiar with the overall strategy and how to play.
Finally to make things crystal clear what DraftKings promo code offers are for their new players as a welcome bonus, let's do a few Q & A with the most frequent question we get in our email.
Q. So how exactly do I get my DraftKings promo codefree entry ?
A. It's pretty simple – visit DraftKings website by clicking on the links up above, make an account and draft Your team. That's all it is. As an added bonus if you make a deposit of $5 or more you will get another free entry this time in a paid game which costs $3.
Q. What about all those Draftkings promo code offers I used to see on TV all the time?
A. As I mentioned above, starting March 1st, 2016 DraftKings discontinued the use of promo codes. You can find a bunch of them on different coupon sites but they won't get you anything extra. DraftKings has promos running all the time but you do not need an actual Draftkings promo code to take advantage of them, Just visit the website thou the link up above and see what the current offers are.
Q. Last but not least – is Draftkings legal?
A. No way around this question;) It's on everybody's mind lately due to all the press surrounding the legality of the whole fantasy sports industry. We are not a site that gives legal advice so this is a direct quote from DraftKings's website on the matter :
" DraftKings operates in compliance with federal law, including a statute called the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act, or UIGEA, which exempts fantasy sports contests from its regulation. State law regarding DFS contests varies by state, and is currently dynamic, with some states expressly regulating DFS contests while others continue to evaluate the legality of DFS contests and potential regulation of the industry."
Basically at the moments fantasy sports in general and DraftKings in particular are 100% legal in all but 8 states. There is a whole lot of legislation for and against the daily fantasy sports industry on state level and it's impossible to predict if that number will stay at 8, increase or decrease.
To summarize : you will get nothing extra (being more free entries or another bonus) if you use a Draftkings promo code. The field marked on their website as "Enter Draftkings promo code here" is optional and it's purpose is for them to just track where you saw on offer at, being a TV commercial or radio advertising. A draftkings promo code will not provide new players with anything extra!
And that's about it for now. If we find out anything new about DraftKings, the legal side of things or any new Draftkings promo code offers and special bonuses we will update it here accordingly. To check what the current Draftkings promotions are just click the link up above and look them up, they do change from time to time .

A little late, I know, but I'm finally recovered enough from Blizzcon to write about it. No, no, I wasn't the guy who scrapped his leg dancing on stage. I do, however have a sexy blister on my toe (warning! gross picture!) from walking to Santa Ana from my hotel in new shoes. The sucker's almost bigger than my toe itself! And a combination of not handling sleep deprivation well and school not giving me two minutes to myself makes for a very cranky pally.
Don't let my whining mislead you, though. I had a blast at Blizzcon.
Blizzcon Itself
I see a lot of complaining about Blizzcon. Mainly from people who were watching it on livestream. Understandably: they got all the boring parts of Blizzcon with none of the perks.
I wasn't expecting to make it to any of the panels since I didn't bother buying a ticket, so when my guildie had to go home in a hurry, I was thankful that he gave me his pass. As a result, I got to attend all of Saturday's events.
I don't care about news or fancy announcements, so I wasn't looking for anything exciting. I loved the cinematics presentation. I was on the edge of my seat, squealing the whole time. I don't know much about graphics and game design, so most of the theoretical stuff was over my head. I didn't care: it looked super cool so I loved it. When I got home, I described it to my friends like this:
"So I went to this gaming company convention and they showed us the cinematics of this new game they have coming out and there was a dragon destroying the world and they showed us how he's tearing up cities and making fire in the sky and causing huge waves. Before, in games, they used particles to design water, but the effects in this game were too big so they needed too many particles so they had to do it differently so they showed us how they did it and they used tons of layers and OMG it was so cool."
I've been receiving a lot of "that's nice, dear" looks.
Class Q&A didn't really teach me anything. Some of the questions were either too obscure for my pally-only mind, for the others, the developers gave vague, generic answers that didn't bring anything new to the table. I get the impression that Q&A sessions are only held to give players the illusion that they, as individuals, are being listened to.
That said, I would have loved to ask about the fate of paladin utility spells (our Hand abilities mostly) and why they're not being spotlighted as much as they could be. I thought of it too late, though, and besides, I'm probably the only paladin crazy about utility spells, so I would have probably been booed away.
Oh, and the girl who went on about how dps should never take damage in a raid gave me a good laugh. Has she raided ICC? Sindragosa? Blood Queen? Clearly, she must be one of those dps who don't ever look at their health bar. And it's exactly dps like her who need damage reduction talents. (Her original question was concerning the need to pick pvp talents when moving down a tree.)
The Diablo Q&A needed better question screening. Will there be separate PVE and PVP specs? Oh, gee, I dunno, the developers only said no THREE TIMES.
My experience with Diablo is limited to having played for 15 minutes in the "old game demo" section of Blizzcon, so I was a little lost during the Q&A, but I'm excited to see how their non-competitive approach to the game will turn out.
I ended the day by watching most of the Starcraft II finals. I was curious as to what a pro game of Starcraft looks like. The speed and precision of those guys are incredible. How they manage to control 9 groups of units while using all of their buildings to make new units and expanding their bases to other mineral locations, I'll never understand. In the time it takes me to build a couple of SCVs, they've each already established Command Centers at three different mineral fields and unleashed their army on the enemy. Twice.
I wonder if those kinds of skills translate to other aspects of life.
My favourite part of my day at Blizzcon though?
Riding in the Starcraft II flippy-thingy.
Oh yeah.
Notice how I'm there with a stranger. Two of my guildies, big tough guys, were with me, but chose purse-holding duties over riding in the flippy-thingy. Seriously!
Now onto part 2!

In view of the current worldwide shortage of helium gas, all balloons will be air-filled by default.
Helium is a natural resource and is depleting. While floating balloons are super amazing, we realise that the need for it is far more important to the medical industry. In our effort to prioritise the health sector in this country (and everywhere else), we will no longer be selling helium balloons.
Helium filled balloons will still be an option for those who believe in YOLO! But at a raised price. You can contact us for more info: +6012-807 2131 or email firstname.lastname@example.com

Fourteen & Open-mouthed
Last year for Jacek's birthday (on April 1), I dressed up as Hit Girl. Last year I was into Kick-Ass and Chloe Moretz. Then I interviewed her at Comic-Con and realised she's predictably and disappointintly yet another child star robot, programmed for tv friendly precociousness from 8-12 and early maturation from 13 onwards. She spoke like a 30 year old. And I remember both Dylan and I reacted similarly - that's not a kid, that's Hollywood engineering. Kinda gross.
Anyway, here's Chloe this weekend at the Comedy Awards working a lot of Lohan on the carpet. She just turned 14 - only 14! - in February and already the mouth is open. Or it's puckered. And she's full of Want and Try. Wanting big fame. Wanting It. And Trying the way no girl her age should need to.
So here we go. Chloe is on her way. And 16 isn't so far away. Boyfriends, parties, clubs, experimenting with "style", aspiring to be a tabloid fixture. Unless of course she in a couple years she decides to do something crazy and, like, go to school for a change. There's an expression in her face that makes me doubt this.

When I check the log files, I see the statement causing the exception.
Unfortunately, I don't see what the bind parameters for the SQL statement are.
The documentation for 8.3 seems to indicate that I could log the bind parameters, but I cannot determine how to turn on logging.
Can anybody help me figure out what to change in

Today I read a blog post talking about a Canadian guy called Mark Rowswell (aka 大山) that appears on Chinese TV shows and who is able to do 相声. This 相声 is referred to as "the art of language".
What does 相声 exactly mean?
相声 is a form of Chinese traditional stand-up comedy where two two performers talk back and forth to each other, telling a funny story or just chatting about a humorous topic. Because it's a traditional Chinese art form and originates in northern China, it has a higher political status than other Chinese art forms. This means that it gets broadcasted across the country on CCTV a lot, and sinophiles like Mark Roswell get introduced to it when they are studying Chinese.
相声 performers who become make a name for themselves can establish their own styles and take on students to pass on their skills. Mr Roswell/Dashan's mentor was a performer named 姜昆. Dashan is not the only foreigner to have studied under a famous artist -- another name that I remember off the top of my head is Julien Gaudfroy (朱力安), a French student of Chinese who also studied 相声.
Probably the best way to get a better feel for 相声 would be to search for the term on Youtube, or if you're in China then search on Youku. Combine it with 大山 or 朱力安 to find videos of these talented performers.
Kind of hard to explain ...
It a traditional performing arts in China, usually performed by two performers, in the form of dialogue between the two performers.
It is a comedic performing art that would make people laugh.
It's Chinese traditional talk show. Usually played by two persons. But there is 单口相声 which played by one person.
"相声" literally means "mutual voice."
Figuratively, it would refer to a "back and forth" dialog between two people, kind of like a ping pong game. Because no one is clearly dominant, it is a use of language that would be considered a high art form.
相声 or the cross talk is like a talk show, usually performed by 2 people.
Usually, Cross Talk (Xiangsheng), a comic dialogue, features two men humorously sparring back and forth. By vivid and rich descriptions of characters and events, it is intended to express thought-provoking things behind the humor. Although cross talkers, now highly respected and recognized as folk artists, worship Dongfang Shuo of Han Dynasty (206 B.C. - 220 A.D.) as their forefather, it is in Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) that this popular plebeian culture began to prosper. In early years, street cross talkers in Beijing's Tian Qiao area included Qiongbupa (not-fearing poverty), Wanrenmi (adored-by-ten-thousand-people) and Li Dexi. They wrote and performed many popular pieces, making indelible contributions to the development of this art form. Although Beijing was home to the cross talk, the port city of Tianjin, with its proximity to Beijing, was a place where cross talkers must go to perform. Gradually, Tianjin became a place where any new pieces had to be first performed and recognized before being staged in Beijing. Many famous cross talkers all once performed in Tianjin for many years before their names were widely known across the country, including Ma Sanli, Hou Baolin, Zhang Shouchen, Chang Lianan, Chang Yukun, Chan Baoting, Bai Quanfu, Su Wenmao, Gao Yingpei, Fan Zhenyu, etc. Although Tianjin is not the birthplace of the cross talk, it is a city that once cultivated many famous cross talkers who has achieved artistic excellence of unique depth. The cross talk is loved by the people of Tianjin and has become a glamor of the city.

As Alan Rusbridger appears Tuesday before the Home Affairs committee of the U.K. Parliament to give evidence regarding the Guardian's coverage of surveillance activities by the U.S. and U.K. governments, British journalists and analysts say that newspaper's legal troubles are worrying in large part because they come against the backdrop of increased regulation and scrutiny of the wider industry.
Guardian Editor Rusbridger will be questioned under oath by members of Parliament conducting a larger investigation on counter-terrorism. His presence was requested by a former Conservative Defense Minister, Liam Fox, in order to investigate the potential "damage" the Guardian may have caused to British national security with its reporting on the activities of the U.S. National Security Agency and its British counterpart, the General Communications Headquarters.
Another member of parliament, Julian Smith, was more specific in a letter to the Guardian's publishers in October. "We have serious concerns that the GCHQ files and documentation that we understand you duplicated and sent to both The New York Times and foreign bloggers, contain information, which, if accessed by terror groups or unfriendly or hostile foreign powers, could risk British national security," the conservative parliamentarian wrote.
Its reporting on the material leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden has focused the authorities' attention in the Guardian. Prime Minister David Cameron suggested the London newspaper had damaged national security and made an alarming threat--not carried out so far--of prior restraint. But several British journalists and analysts contacted by CPJ expressed a wider concern in light of the establishment of a new statutory press watchdog by royal charter on October 30.
"There is already a chilling effect on journalism," said Charlie Beckett, a journalist and director of Polis, the media think-tank at the London School of Economics (LSE). "Some of this might be a good thing if it means papers hesitate before publishing lies and extreme attacks on people. However, there are already real indications that politicians and other people with power are using the prospect of tougher regulation to pressurize newsrooms. The combination of a business crisis plus Leveson means that people think newspapers are weaker--that's probably true--and so they are pushing back," he told CPJ.
In an interview with The Washington Post last week, Rusbridger stressed this relationship between recent examples of pressure on the Guardian--such as the arrest under terrorism legislation of a courier for the paper, David Miranda, or the forced destruction of computer hard-drives--with tighter press regulation following investigation of the News of the World hacking scandal by judge Brian Leveson. "In the past five months a number of disturbing things have happened.... All this has happened against a background of new press regulation in which [British Prime Minister] David [Cameron] is claiming the press has nothing to worry about from increased regulation involving his royal charter. Some of this behavior is clearly designed to be intimidatory and/or chilling," he told The Washington Post.
The press watchdog, whose establishment was agreed by British political parties, will have power to impose large fines on U.K. publishers and demand apologies from newspapers. Legislation was also passed to allow judges to award exemplary damages against publishers that do not accept the new regulatory system. But the newspaper industry rejects the government's watchdog and has launched its own, the Independent Press Standards Organization (Ipso). A standoff has ensued. "They have secured a royal seal, but failed to clinch a deal," the Guardian said of political parties in an editorial. In its own editorial after Queen Elizabeth adopted the royal charter, the conservative newspaper The Times described the government's regulator as "a recognition body that nobody recognizes, a system of voluntary regulation without volunteer."
Most analysts agree that the industry's version will become effective sooner or later. "The newspapers' own regulator will be the one to emerge strongest because it's the only one that most newspapers will join. There is little appetite--or power--for politicians to force them to join the parliamentary royal charter organization," the LSE's Beckett told CPJ.
Meanwhile, several beat reporters and journalists in British newsrooms said they see the battle as a matter for publishers and editors. "I don't think people take it that seriously, which may of course be a mistake--we take a free press completely for granted, so we are not sensitive to threats," said Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, veteran economics editor for the Daily Telegraph.
Given the animosity of most national and regional newspapers toward the statutory watchdog, the government has hinted to a future reconciliation between the official system and the industry's self-regulator. But whatever the final framework, a malaise has spread in the British press. "I am completely mystified by where things now stand; I don't think the world is about to end, but am always suspicious of politicians meddling with the press," Simon Jenkins, a Guardian columnist and former Times and Evening Standard editor, told CPJ. "I just hope it degenerates into a mess and nothing much gets done," he said.
Some aspects of the regulatory framework
set up by the royal charter particularly concern an industry struggling with
the impact of the financial crisis and the digital revolution. The arbitration
mechanism, designed as a non-judicial conflict resolution tool, could lead to professional compensation lawyers, known as claim farmers,
"to seek big money from newspapers for breaches of the
industry's code of ethics," the Guardian
reported. More recently, a Labour party candidate urged union bosses to use new
press regulations to launch class action complaints against newspapers who
criticize them, after the Daily Mail
exposed alleged bullying tactics of Unite, a leading British trade union with close
links to the Labour Party, the Mail reported.
"I don't think the average British journalist is terribly worried with politicians interfering directly with the press; they think democracy is strong enough in this country," said David Randall, a former editor for The Independent. "But the atmosphere has changed after the royal charter was adopted, and the real fear is the possibility that a mechanism that's plausible and reasonable on the surface could be used by campaigners and activists in harmful ways that no one intended," Randall told CPJ.

Revision as of 02:37, 22 June 2011
This page describes the steps necessary to get all of the features of the ASUS AT3IONT-I working correctly. It assumes you already successfully installed Arch Linux and installed the basic software (ALSA for audio, wireless_tools and wpa_supplicant packages for wireless in the Deluxe edition, etc.)
Audio over HDMI
Many ION boards exhibit problems when trying to play sound through HDMI. They usually require a custom ALSA configuration via Template:Filename (or, alternatively, on a per-user basis via Template:Filename).
Also, please note that audio over HDMI currently only works in an X session (graphical environment). If you are trying to get the sound to work when running on a virtual terminal, it won't work. Please see this post on the Arch Forums.
Deluxe Edition
The deluxe edition comes with a few extra goodies, such as DC power on-board, mini-PCI WiFi, RCA stereo output, on-board Blutooth, and an included IR Remote.
The Bluetooth chip is an Atheros with a device ID of 0cf3:3002. It uses the ath3k driver which has been included in the kernel since ~2.6.33 and works out of the box with the default Arch kernel.
The wireless chipset is an Atheros AR9285. Template:Command It uses the ath9k driver, which has been included in the default kernel since 2.6.27. In other words, udev should load the driver without problems -- there should be no extra configuration to get wireless working on the ASUS AT3IONT-I.
RCA Stereo Output
Special thanks to pj7 of the Ubuntu forums for putting together a working driver for the receiver.
The included IR receiver requires a kernel module to be built to accommodate it. Apparently, it is a rather tricky little device. It seems to work best with the included remote -- it coverts the included remotes' button presses directly to keyboard keystrokes, but when using another MCE remote it reports to the system the raw code. It seems to understand other signals, but you will need a remote that sends the right signal. This results in limited functionality of the device where it can only use the included ASUS remote, a JP1 Programmable remote (to program the known signals), or a universal remote that has the ability to learn the IR signals of the ASUS remote.
As a result, this section will focus on getting the included remote working with the included receiver, based on pj7's driver.
- Note:
- If you know more about the nitty gritty aspects of kernel driver development and IR remotes, please take a look at this thread to see if functionality can be added to this driver, especially for basic MCE remotes.
Download the source from here, and then extract with Template:Codeline. The resulting directory will include the source files, along with a Linux-to-X11 input key map. Before you build the source, you must edit Template:Filename. This file maps the button presses to Linux input keys. Be aware that Linux input does not equal X11 input. Graphical programs, such as media players, XBMC, and the like, are only aware of X11 inputs, and so you must match a X11 input with a Linux input to. That's what the Template:Filename file is for.
For example, if you wish to define the "Next Track" button as "XF86AudioNext" (which most programs will look for to play the next item in the playlist), you will need to define BUTTON_NEXT in Template:Filename as KEY_NEXTSONG rather than KEY_NEXT. This is because KEY_NEXTSONG maps to "XF86AudioNext" (KEY_NEXT doesn't register as anything).
Once you've finished mapping the buttons, run Template:Codeline: Template:Command
Install the driver with Template:Codeline (as root).
Now we must make sure the driver loads correctly. One thing that you must do is blacklist the mceusb driver that tries to load whenever the IR Reciever is detected. Then you must make sure that the new hid-philips-asus driver loads before usbhid as usbhid will try to take over the receiver. This can all be easilly accomplished by the MODULES line in Template:Filename: Template:File
You have to blacklist mceusb in Template:Filename: Template:File
(rebooting the computer might be necessary)
After that, all the buttons on the Asus remote should work. If you find that you would rather assign different actions to button presses, it is easy to edit the Template:Filename file and Template:Codeline again. Alternatively, you may be interested in Xmodmap.

Ticino Wedding
We are a wedding planning company that has recently set up shop. We are focused on Ticino: the italian part of Switzerland, and would like some marketing materials to use in the United States.
A little more about us from our website:
Whether you are arranging a small, intimate ceremony in a beautiful romantic setting, or are planning a wedding at a grand location surrounded by the Alps, Ticino Wedding is your resource.
We provide Wedding consulting services for everyone who wishes to spend the most romantic day of their life in the most beautiful part of the world. We can organize everything from A to Z, or with any of the steps in between for all your needs when planning your wedding in Lugano, Ascona, or anywhere else in our beautiful Canton!
Mostly Americans who have spent some time in Switzerland or close by, and therefore know the general area (most who have visited fall in love with the scenery).
Obviously the target will be couples desiring to get married in the near future. Mostly urban, late 20's to early 40's (although their parents are also an influence).
Ideally the brochure will entice them to contact us, to bookmark us for future reference or to recommend us to friends who might be interested.
You can obviously use photos from our site. Some other good keywords are: Ticino, Lugano, Locarno, Ascona, Verzasca and Bellinzona
We would like a nice design for a front and back brochure.
As you can see on our website <TicinoWedding.com> we have no logo, so the main guidelines are that:
a) we would like the design to be elegant and
b) we would like space for several paragraphs (more or less what you find under "About us" on our website) on the back.
Otherwise feel free to experiment with what you feel brings a sense of sophistication, beauty, elegance and professionalism.
We would prefer a .jpg and a layered .psd file. These are the sizes we will be using:
Our standard brochure size would be:
Full Bleed Size
7.72" x 8.39"
196mm x 213mm
2316 x 2517 pixels
Document Trim Size
7.48" x 8.27"
190mm x 210mm
2244 x 2481 pixels
but we are flexible if we like the design.

We just published our first Buyer's Guide on air filtration and wanted to share it with our site visitors.
If you've ever been to our website before, you've probably noticed that there's a seemingly endless list of product categories – air filters, water filters, humidifiers, air purifiers, water bottles, etc. We know it can be overwhelming to search through all of this, so we've implemented a few new features:
One is our new-and-improved search box at the top of the page. When you search for a particular filter or type of filter, the search box offers a drop-down list of suggestions based on what you type in, making it easier for you to find the product you need:
The second feature is our list of buyer's guides on air and water filters. We have already published several water filter buyer's guides, and today we have uploaded our first buyer's guide on air filtration.
If you've been wondering the difference between an electrostatic air filter, a HEPA filter, or an air purifier, look no further. Our Simple Guide to Home Air Filtration breaks it down for you. And if you've been asking yourself who this MERV character is that we keep referring to in our furnace filter product descriptions – MERV and his rating system are described in more detail in our guide.
Be on the lookout for more in-depth Buyer's Guides on particular types of air filters and purifiers in the near future. In the meantime, if you have any questions, our filter experts are available to chat with you, M-F from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m.

|Source information needed!
- For the Warcraft III unit, see Dragonhawk Rider (Warcraft III).
Dragonhawks riders (sometimes simply called Dragonhawks) are the high elf and blood elf version of windriders.
Blood Elf Dragonhawk Rider Edit
Dragonhawk riders are blood elf magi who take the fight to the air. The blood elves use these mounted warriors as support troops, nullifying ranged fighters and battlements with their spells. They are resplendent in gold and blue armor, each helm worked in stylized wings above each ear. They bear lances and pat their majestic dragonhawk mounts in preparation for battle. Dragonhawk riders are elite aerial warriors. As magi, dragonhawk riders tend to stay above the battle, using their spells to befuddle enemies and disable potentially dangerous foes. A favorite tactic of dragonhawk riders is to cast fog cloud over enemy battlements, rendering their long ranged attacks useless. Dragonhawk riders also use aerial shackles to disable flying opponents.[1] (APG 188)
High Elf Dragonhawk Rider Edit
Known as the dragonhawks of Quel'Danas, the high elves' deadly dragonhawk units are trained to scour the infested ranges of Quel'Thalas. From the aeries of the island refuge of Quel'Danas, these elite windriders seek intruders and report on the movements of troops through the scarred forests. Battle with the dragonhawks is a sudden, confusing, and swift move to find shelter from rending talons and razor sharp arrows. The high elves use aerial tactics and minor spell strikes from the sky to tear through their foes like a fierce wind. They often defend themselves and their mounts with mage armor before engaging in battle.[2] (LoC 113)
