What is it with Nu-Metal bands and one-word song titles?This Message Edited On 10.05.08
Actually, one-word titles are far more common in grunge/post-grunge/alt rock than nu-metal.
would you really expect more from a nu-metal band?
I don't care. What IS IT with one-word song titles?
...whats wrong with them? Why must song titles be more than one word but less than fifteen?
Red Sparowes song titles are the best tbh.
now that that is out of the way.
good review, I really like your reviewing style.
the_wizard is a wizard at writing reviews, oh ho ho did u see wat i did thar. Pos'd

I don't want to hear this.
Review was good though. Have a cookie.
Album Rating: 4.0Nu-metal aint your thing, huh?
eh not really. I don't dislike it, just don't really feel like I need to listen to any.
I checked a few songs out and I think I remember listening to these guys before. Sevendust, (old) Ill Nino, Nonpoint, and Spineshank remind me of my nu-metal obsessed youth. Good review, dark mage.

Strange True Tours came to be when partners and history geeks Jeffrey Holmes and Jane Dekovitch
saw the need for an alternative to large groups and the same rehashed haunted stories.
This sparked the original adult history tour, where the strange but true stories of the weird and unusual tales of New Orleans history could be finally told.
Strange True Tours is the leader in unique and bespoke tours and the first tour company to exclusively offer small group tours.
Strange True Tours has an incredible roster of guides who are constantly expanding their knowledge and honing their craft of guiding tours.

Sección de Metodologías de la Universidad de Murcia's curator insight, April 3, 2014 10:30 AM
This new version:
- Makes the plugin compatible with multi-language analysis introduced in SonarQube 4.2
- Adds support of Emma 2.0 reports
Sección de Metodologías de la Universidad de Murcia's curator insight, January 14, 2014 10:41 AM
For the uninitiated, SonarQube is a continuous quality analysis platform running as a web server that tracks metrics regarding your code and its structure. It can be extended through plugins, and usually embeds useful tools and checks. Historically SonarQube only dealt with Java code but it has been extended since, and it handles most common languages as of today (available features may vary).
Our use case being an Android application, we are not wandering far away from the Java world. A dedicated plugin created by several Octos – sonar-android-plugin – is going to bridge the gap between pure Java code and Android code.

Beyoncé released her new album Lemonade as an HBO special and after it was available on Tidal, there were a few interesting surprises on the album's writing credits.
Among those with credits across the album are Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Soulja Boy, and many more. Another shocker on the album came from Animal Collective, who are listed as contributing to the Boots co-produced track "6 Inch" that also features The Weeknd.
On Genius, Boots explained how the lyrics from Animal Collective's "My Girls" came to appear on the track. He wrote:
"The Animal Collective "material things" amalgamation was accidental. similar to when George Harrison got sued for "My Sweet Lord". you write it and sing it and think "thats fucking great!!!" and everyone high fives and you're all geniuses for fourteen seconds but it turns out its great because someone else already fucking wrote it. that song is a jam"
Boots also added that the song's bridge is seen as a "spiritual sequel to the 'Ghost' section of 'Haunted.'"
Check out the complete album guide to Lemonade and a track-by-track analysis of the album.

text: Okay its time to replace my 3 year old TI 667mhz G4 Gig Ethernet model powerbook with something a little more up-to-date. I am interested in either the 12" but am a little dubious of the screen so might go for the 15" not sure yet. I have also been looking at Bluetooth GPS receivers, aparantly any GPS Bluetooth receiver will work with Mac's because they don't have the dodgy USB-Serial chip that many USB receivers have. Can anyone recommend any good route planning software for use in the car (12" powerbook will come in handy here) ... I suppose I could use virtual pc but that's not very nice. Many thanks.

I completed Castle Crashers (XBLA) over the weekend with my girlfriend. What's interesting is that when I played the demo with my brother earlier this year, I wasn't entire sold on it, and didn't think it justified a purchase.
But after hearing that it was the No.1 selling Xbox Live Arcade (XBLA) game, I just had to check it out, and try to find out exactly what the hell makes it so popular.
And so I mashed, and tapped, and madly rotated my stick occasionally, before finally laying the smackdown on that wizard guy. But more important that kissing the Princesses, is that I managed to take-away some Food-for-Thought from my weekend experience.
What I took away was this: that the success of the game had very much to do with the game meeting the expectations for the type of game distributed on a platform such as XBLA, or perhaps, even across almost the entire Digital Download scene.
The Top 5 reasons that I think made Castle Crashers strike a resonating chord on XBLA are:-
1) Casual-ness
Above all, Castle Crashers is a casual game, something that is so easy to pick-up-and-play, in long or short bursts; and perhaps this says a bit of the profile of the target audience of XBLA - to provide slightly more casual affairs in conjunction to the hardcore-boxset experience.
The game is extremely accessible - no hardcore combo memorization or the like. Button-mashing can get you pretty far. Basically, this means that almost anybody can just pick it up and play, and still have a decent amount of fun with it.
3) Multiplayer Mayhem
Perhaps the biggest sell-through factor for the game, the frantic (and perhaps nostalgic) experience of working together and occasionally against other players, in a tried-and-tested genre that almost anyone can appreciate.
Put this together with Point #2, and you have an ideal party game that non-gaming friends or girlfriends can partake in. For the more hardcore gamers, Castle Crashers would probably be a game to occupy their hands and the occasionally silence while they chat and catch up on their lives or other unimportant stuff.
4) Quirkiness / Personality
Even though the game has ARPG elements like Guardian Heroes (SS), the gameplay hardly carries the same amount of depth. But what Castle Crashers lacks in depth, it more than makes up for it in Personality.
From it's distinctive "Flash-game" graphics to it's humour-laden levels and bosses, almost every minute of Castle Crashers oozes personality, regardless of the gameplay. It's definitely not hard not to at least chuckle at some of the crazy things that happen in the game, like the profusely-shitting animals, for example.
5) Replayability
With multiple characters to unlock, different animal orbs to find and weapons to experiment with, Castle Crashers is a game that is choked-full of excuses in revisiting. True, the levels and bosses are always the same with each playthrough, but it's multiplayer alone already gives the game it's own 2 legs in terms of replayability.
For everything else, they just tend to serve as icing on the cake; any additional incentives provided, no matter how minute, gives the seasoned-player an additional reason to sit through the game "just one more time" with a new group of friends - and perhaps even spur people to convince more of their friends to get the game to join in the fun, amounting to it's current success.
All in all, I think that the underlying point is that people expect very different things coming out of a full-priced boxset game and a smaller, indie-developed, digitally-distributed game like Castle Crashers. It has come to a point that the market has enough space for both type of games, and perhaps now, more so than ever, it is important to profile and pander towards that different set of expectations.

When you are struggling with lack of bladder control after your hysterectomy, then it's time to try these home remedies for overactive bladder.
Loss of bladder control after hysterectomy is often due to an overactive bladder and has the following characteristic symptoms:
- A sudden and overwhelming urge to go to the toilet.
- Not being able to hold and leaking small amounts of urine.
- The need to urinate (pee) more than 8 times a day.
- Several visits (more than 2) to the bathroom at night.
Studies show that women have an increased chance (40% to 60%) of developing urine leakage after hysterectomy surgery.
Some experience this immediately after the operation, but it can also happen many years later.
What is an overactive bladder?
There are several types of incontinence that can affect women after a hysterectomy and one of them is an overactive bladder.
Normally when the bladder fills, nerves send a message to the brain that the bladder needs emptying. In turn, the brain will send a message to tell the bladder it needs empty itself. With an overactive bladder, the bladder muscle (detrusor) simply squeezes too often. This can happen because of wrong nerve signals or bladder irritation.
There are a number of overactive bladder medications that are very effective. The downside of these medications is that they often come with unpleasant side effects. The main reasons many women stop taken these drugs are continuous headaches and gastrointestinal problems.
4 of the best home remedies for overactive bladder
But before you put yourself at the mercy of these drugs, it's worth to explore more natural treatments for overactive bladder. Here are a few home remedies for overactive bladder relief that will help you to regain a healthy functional bladder.
1. Yoga for overactive bladder
When looking for home remedies for overactive bladder yoga is one of the options. Stress is known to aggravate an overactive bladder. Yoga is often beneficial for pelvic wellness and regaining bladder control.
Yoga poses for overactive bladder help a woman to build stronger pelvic muscles and become more conscious of her bladder area.
You can join pelvic wellness yoga classes in your area or do yoga poses for incontinence at home with the help of yoga for optimizing bladder control DVD.
Doing some stress relieving yoga poses before you go to bed will help you relax and guarantee you get a good night sleep.
2. Retraining an overactive bladder
A home remedy for overactive bladder that works for some women is retraining the bladder. This way a woman can teach herself to hold her urine longer and control the urge to run for the toilet.
- Start by keeping a diary of how often and when you go to the bathroom.
- After three days check the list and write down the shortest time you were able to hold your urine.
- Use this time as your starting point. Next time you feel the urge to go, try to find the strength and force yourself to add 10 minutes to lengthen this time.
- Try to stick to this schedule even if you do not feel an urge to go.
- Continue to add 10 to 15 minutes between your trips to the bathroom.
- Your goal is to delay until you can hold for three to four hours without accidents.
3. Kegel exercises for overactive bladder
Kegels, also known as pelvic floor exercises, will help you regain control over the muscles of your pelvic floor. These are the muscles that you contract to stop the urine flow. Combining bladder training and Kegel exercises has a high success rate in treating urge incontinence.
Dr. Arnold Kegel, a Californian gynecologist, discovered that you can exercise the pubococcygeus or pelvic floor muscle to improve its function and tension.
Women can learn through practice and persistence to regain control over their pelvic muscles. It takes some practice to master the technique of contracting the right muscles, and persistence because it can take several weeks to months to see positive results.
4. Overactive bladder diet
In order to get a better control over your urge incontinence, first of all, you need to make certain dietary changes and secondly, try to manage your fluid intake.
What substances in your diet can affect your overactive bladder?
- Drink less coffee and tea as caffeine stimulates the bladder and they have diuretic properties
- Avoid acid fruits and juices as they may irritate the bladder
- Carbonated drinks, alcohol and beverages with artificial sweeteners may also upset an overactive bladder.
Foods that women with overactive bladder should avoid, the so-called trigger foods, include;
- Pickles, vinegar, and spicy foods
- Processed meats like sausages, bacon, and ham.
- Salty nuts and crisps
- Tomatoes or products made of tomato
- Onions
The best way to manage your fluid intake is finding a healthy middle way. Drink too little, and you will upset the bladder only more with highly concentrated urine. Drink too much, and you will keep running to the restroom. Recommended fluid intake for people with overactive bladder is 2 to 2.5 liters of fluid a day. If you have to get out of bed to pee several times at night, limit your fluid intake after 6 pm.
Hopefully, these home remedies for overactive bladder will help you to get your bladder under control. Like to share your story of overactive bladder problems after hysterectomy, feel free to leave a comment in the box below.

Over its lifetime, your deck, siding and expensive wood furniture will be exposed to many damaging factors that cause deterioration and shortened wood life. Ultraviolet light, weather, dirt, chemical spills, scratches and foot traffic can all affect your deck or log cabin by:
Changing its color to grey or washed out looking
Increasing its sensitivity to mildew, fungi, insects, etc.
Increasing its water sensitivity
Causing cracking or peeling, increasing dirt pick-up.
After months of outdoor exposure without protection, the wood will fade and begin to lose its original color and over time, can show cracking and insect or fungal damage. To avoid this type of damage and prevent the need for costly and complicated renovations involving sanding and stripping, regular maintenance of the wood is necessary. Commonly used sealers are solvent based, with high VOC which harms the environment, as well as solvents for additional clean up. Why not skip the solvents altogether, and go for a green product?
Compare Envirolast XT2 to a common solvent based wood sealer:
Solvent based sealers contain VOC that contributes to CO2 emissions, as well as odors and fumes that can be harmful. Conventional sealer penetrates the wood, but it does not seal it with a protective film and often fails when used in direct sunlight and weather prone areas. Solvent based sealers are cheap and easy to use, but don't offer much in the way of long term wood protection, wood enhancement or UV durability. In fact, many common solvent based sealers need to be stripped, sanded and reapplied every year in order to maintain the condition of the wood. Envirolast XT2 can be applied directly over most common sealers, and once applied, requires little to no sanding or stripping to maintain. This saves time and money year after year!
Envirolast XT2 wood stain and sealer has a practical balance between drying time and open time (the time the paint remains workable on the surface). It dries remarkably quickly, but still leaves enough time for quick and easy application without overlap marks. Envirolast XT2 has almost no residual tackiness and better water resistance than many other sealers, eight hours after applying the second coat! Envirolast XT2 outperforms competitors because it undergoes erosion rather than cracking and peeling, which means easy maintenance. Envirolast XT2 is so good, it can cut the need for repainting by about two times, saving time and money. Low VOC and quick applications mean less down time for clients and customers, making Envirolast XT2 the best choice for your next wood project!

Google Engineers Conclude that Renewable Energy Will Not Result in Significant Emissions Reductions
Back in 2007, Google assembled a team of engineers to investigate the feasibility of replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy. The effort ended in 2011 with the conclusion that it can't be done with existing technology. Two of the engineers on that team wrote about their efforts in Spectrum IEEE.org. Some excerpts from that article:
Google's boldest energy move was an effort known as RE<C [Renewables less than Coal], which aimed to develop renewable energy sources that would generate electricity more cheaply than coal-fired power plants do. The company announced that Google would help promising technologies mature by investing in start-ups and conducting its own internal R&D.
At the start of RE<C, we had shared the attitude of many stalwart environmentalists: We felt that with steady improvements to today's renewable energy technologies, our society could stave off catastrophic climate change. We now know that to be a false hope—but that doesn't mean the planet is doomed.
As we reflected on the project, we came to the conclusion that even if Google and others had led the way toward a wholesale adoption of renewable energy, that switch would not have resulted in significant reductions of carbon dioxide emissions. Trying to combat climate change exclusively with today's renewable energy technologies simply won't work; we need a fundamentally different approach.
So our best-case scenario, which was based on our most optimistic forecasts for renewable energy, would still result in severe climate change, with all its dire consequences: shifting climatic zones, freshwater shortages, eroding coasts, and ocean acidification, among others. Our reckoning showed that reversing the trend would require both radical technological advances in cheap zero-carbon energy, as well as a method of extracting CO2 from the atmosphere and sequestering the carbon.
We're glad that Google tried something ambitious with the RE<C initiative, and we're proud to have been part of the project. But with 20/20 hindsight, we see that it didn't go far enough, and that truly disruptive technologies are what our planet needs. To reverse climate change, our society requires something beyond today's renewable energy technologies. Fortunately, new discoveries are changing the way we think about physics, nanotechnology, and biology all the time. While humanity is currently on a trajectory to severe climate change, this disaster can be averted if researchers aim for goals that seem nearly impossible.
The key is that as yet invented sources have to be cheaper than fossil fuels. The problem is that existing scalable low carbon energy sources (nuclear and renewables) are all more expensive than fossil fuels, which I've been pointing out for years. They make a stab at explaining why wind and solar are more expensive but trust me, their explanation will largely fall on deaf ears when presented to renewable energy enthusiasts who either don't want to hear it or are incapable of comprehending it. They argue that subsidies for renewables and nuclear to compete with fossil fuels are essentially a financial penalty to fossil fuels which simply shift their use to another part of the planet (export of oil, gas, and coal, along with manufacturing jobs).
Un-Analytics: How Google Went Solar

How to Change the World
Fortune has a very interesting interview with Google co-founder Larry Page. He hits on a lot of topics that are frequently discussed here, and some that aren't often discussed, but that I have spent a lot of time thinking about (e.g., geothermal). Here is a link to the interview: Larry Page on how to change the world And some energy-specific excerpts: Do you have other examples where innovative leadership could move the needle? I think there are a lot of areas. You can be a bit of a detective and ask, What are the industries where things haven't changed much in 50 years? We've been looking a little at geothermal power.

Since I was a kid, I have always wanted to "make a difference" by making a significant contribution to society. I have a soft spot for families and especially for kids, and I really wanted to contribute toward the quality of life for those groups. A big concern is that quality of life for a large segment of the world's population, never good to begin with, is poised for further deterioration as fossil fuel supplies deplete. Quality of life to me starts with the basics: People have enough food and clean water, they have shelter, they live and work in safe conditions, and they have adequate access to affordable energy. At various stages of my life I have had involvement… Continue»
You Have to Admire Google
These guys just seem like they are really trying hard to do the right thing: Google's Goal: Renewable Energy Cheaper than Coal Mountain View, Calif. (November 27, 2007) – Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) today announced a new strategic initiative to develop electricity from renewable energy sources that will be cheaper than electricity produced from coal. The newly created initiative, known as RE-C, will focus initially on advanced solar thermal power, wind power technologies, enhanced geothermal systems and other potential breakthrough technologies. RE-C is hiring engineers and energy experts to lead its research and development work, which will begin with a significant effort on solar thermal technology, and will also investigate enhanced geothermal systems and other areas. In 2008, Google expects to… Continue»

Over 5 hours of walks, occasional run scoring, and a position player pitching ultimately resulted in the White Sox dropping a 14-inning affair by the score of 6-4 to the Red Sox. The pitching started out surprisingly effective before winding up familiarly awful, and a barrage of walks was too much to overcome as the series evens up at a game a piece.
John Danks achieved his best results on the young year by going 6 innings and allowing just one run. The first three batters that Danks faced reached on hits, and from there on out it was either walks or nothing for anybody that stepped in against him. An interesting formula for success, but one that translated into his third quality start in as many tries.
The White Sox got their first run as a gift, a poorly thrown ball that got past first baseman Daniel Nava, bringing memories of the final play of the previous night's game. The error enabled Jose Abreu to reach, and Adam Eaton to come around to score. The American League's top hitting shortstop added to the offense with a HR the left field fence for his 4th home run of the season. The Alexei bomb continues Clay Buchholz's new trend of allowing at least one HR per contest.
Taking control cues from John Danks, the bullpen could not duplicate their success from the previous night and instead padded the Red Sox on-base statistics. After Ronald Belisario managed a clean 7th inning, Scott Downs came in to start the 8th, faced one batter, walked him. Jake Petricka came into replace him for one batter, walked him. Donnie Veal was brought on and was able to record a couple of outs, one of which yielded a run, before walking a batter of his own and leaving the game. Maikel Cleto then came on to stop the bleeding, but instead poked at the wound, walking the first batter that he faced. He did ultimately induce a pop fly, but for those keeping score at home or checking in here for the happenings, that's four pitchers in the 8th, each walking one batter. Somehow with only a single run yielded.
The 9th wasn't much better. Cleto opened with a pair of walks and Robin opted to go with Matt Lindstrom who managed to not walk anybody, though the tying run did come across on his watch by way of sacrifice fly off the bat of Grady Sizemore. The 11th inning brought a lead-off walk, a HBP, and yet another sacrifice fly to put the Red Sox up 4-3. In response, Tyler Flowers, in his first at-bat of the game, barely got one past SS Xander Bogaerts to score Jordan Danks and tie it back up.
Daniel Webb gave an impressive performance, not just for the minimal damage allowed. He stayed out for 3 innings, throwing 59 pitches as the last available man out of the bullpen. That is until Leury Garcia made his pitching debut in the 14th. Garcia was able to record 2 quick outs, but then the walks came, as is wont to happen. Jackie Bradley Jr. doubled those runners home and that was that..
- Clay Buchholz has issued 2 walks on the season; both of them were earned by Adam Dunn.
- Alexei Ramirez has gotten a hit in 19 straight games. His 15 straight games to begin a season ties the White Sox record held by Frank Thomas. If you think that comparing Alexei Ramirez to Frank Thomas is a bit silly, take a couple looks at what Frank's up to these days.
- The only White Sox batter to collect more than one hit was Adrian Nieto, who raised his average to .250
- As a team, the White Sox issued 15 total walks striking out 5. Conversely, the Red Sox struck out 15 batters, walking just 3. Those numbers will catch up with you nearly every time.

The House Transportation Sub-Committee passed a bill last week that would increase the fine for not wearing a seat belt from $10 to $25 on first offense and from $20 to $50 on subsequent offences. The bill will now go to the House Transportation Committee.
The House Transportation Sub-Committee passed a bill last week that would increase the fine for not wearing a seat belt from $10 to $25 on first offense and from $20 to $50 on subsequent offences. The bill will now go to the House Transportation Committee.
Col. Tracy Trott, commander of the Tennessee Highway Patrol, testified to the committee that officials reviewed statistics in states that have increased fines and found traffic fatalities reduced anywhere from 4-11 percent. Since Tennessee generally has about 1,000 fatalities per year, Trott said, that could translate into saving 40-110 lives annually.
Rep. John Mark Windle, one of two dissenting votes, said he voted against imposing the fines for seat belt violations years ago because constituents felt it was a "liberty issue." While wearing seat belts is a good idea, Windle said. "We have enough governmental intrusion and enough fines. Where is it all going to end?"
Statistics show that about 84 percent of Tennesseans are currently using seat belts. Estimates indicate the state will collect an extra $1.3 million per year from the increased fines. Under HB1497, the first $10 of a first-offense fine and the first $20 of a second-offense fine will go into a fund to assist people severely injured in car accidents. The remaining money would go into the state's general fund.
I encourage you to contact members of the House Transportation Committee at www.tn.gov if you have comments or questions regarding this bill.
No more Racing
to the Courthouse
Many people do not realize that under current law, a person may take out a felony warrant for another individual by accusation and can have that person arrested on a felony charge. Some have described this as being a "race-to-the-courthouse syndrome," where the person who gets to the courthouse first automatically puts the other person on the defensive. Many times this results in costing the accused a great deal of time, legal fees and effort. With this legislation that passed Thursday in the House, a law enforcement officer must now sign off on that warrant. If a law enforcement officer does not sign off on the warrant, then a summons will be issued. There are a few exceptions written into the language of the bill such as: stalking; the existence of one or more outstanding warrants or criminal summons for the person; the person cannot offer evidence of identification; a likelihood exists the accused will fail to appear in court; and immediate danger of domestic abuse. With those exceptions, this bill enhances the principle of fairness for everyone in our court system. The bill also passed the Senate and will be sent to the governor before becoming law.
Bill ADVANCES
to Legalize Hemp
Seen as a jobs bill and one that gives farmers another choice for land use and income, the legislation filed earlier this year to legalize the growth of industrial hemp in Tennessee easily passed the House Agriculture &Natural Resources Subcommittee last week.
Though there are some common misconceptions about the hemp plant, studies show legalizing the growth of hemp in the state would result in a multi-million dollar industry creating thousands of jobs across Tennessee. My concern is that we do not have to introduce more bureaucracy and extensive regulation into the production of hemp for industrial use.
Many people mistakenly associate hemp with marijuana; however, the two plants are very different species. Not only do they look drastically different, but also they are cultivated differently. An individual cannot get high from hemp as it contains less than .3 percent THC, the ingredient which creates the "high" from marijuana.
As advocates further note, the hemp plant played an integral role in the early development of our country with George Washington and Thomas Jefferson growing large quantities of hemp and encouraging fellow Americans to do the same. At one time in Tennessee, hemp was traditionally a large cash crop. Today, hemp remains a very common material with numerous commercial uses such as, clothing, insulation, carpeting and paneling. There are approximately 75 manufacturers using hemp in America today, most prevalently with plastics, which can be reinforced with hemp.
The hemp legislation is scheduled to be heard in the full House Agriculture &Natural Resources Committee next week.
LOCALS TO DECIDE ABOUT Wine
in Grocery Stores
Legislation to allow grocery and convenience stores to sell wine across the state passed the full House last week and will be return to the Senate to work out language differences. The bill has multiple provisions, the most prominent of which gives local communities the final say in whether area grocery stores can sell wine by holding a referendum vote. Referendum votes can currently be called to allow liquor by the drink, package stores and similar measures. The bill also sets July 1, 2016, as the implementation date of allowing wine to be sold in grocery stores assuming the local referendum passes, allowing liquor store owners time to update their business models if needed.

Lazlo COS Pathfinder - Low Magic
Halfling - Raemon's Wife, Crossbow Sharp Shooter, Ranger Commander
(Crossbow / Battle Scout) Ranger 8
- Ranger Commander at Castle Everstand
- Scoped Double Crossbow sharp shooter
- very attractive Halfling woman with long curly red hair
Crossbow Ranger: If the ranger selects crossbow style, he can choose from the following list whenever he gains a combat style feat: Deadly Aim, Focused Shot, Precise Shot, and Rapid Reload. At 6th level, he adds Crossbow Mastery and Improved Precise Shot to the list. At 10th level, he adds Pinpoint Targeting and Shot on the Run to the list.
Battle Scout (Archetype)
Armies need clean water, safe routes, and intelligence about their enemies. Though regular outdoorsmen might suffice in many cases, some large forces look to battle scouts to keep the body of their troops safe and prepared for the terrain and whatever dangers that terrain hides.
Hunter's Bond (Ex): At 4th level, when a battle scout gains the hunter's bond ability, he must choose to bond with his companions. Battle scouts do not have animal companions.
Advantageous Terrain (Ex): At 5th level, when a battle scout is within one of his favorite terrains, he can spend up to 3 consecutive rounds studying an area of terrain to gain the benefits below. Each round of studying terrain is a standard action. During the first round of studying terrain, the battle scout designates a 60-foot-radius-burst area from a single square within line of sight. Depending on how many rounds the battle scout spends studying the area, he or his allies gain the following benefits for 10 minutes per ranger level he possesses. (For example, if he spends 2 rounds, he or his allies gain the first two benefits.)
1st Round: Allies within line of sight and that can hear the battle scout gain a +2 bonus on initiative checks while within the advantageous terrain area.
2nd Round: Allies within line of sight and that can hear the battle scout gain a +2 on Perception, Stealth, and Survival checks while within the advantageous terrain area.
3rd Round: The battle scout's movement is not hampered by difficult terrain while within the advantageous terrain area. Furthermore, the battle scout can take 10 on Climb and Swim checks and checks to jump while within the area, even when in immediate danger or distracted. This ability replaces the ranger's second favored enemy.
Kaitlyn is a very attractive Halfling woman in her late 20's with long curly red hair who stands about 3 ft tall. She is happily married to Raemon, and a border patrol Ranger Commander of the Rangers of Lastwall who operate out of Castle Everstand. Kaitlyn is a highly skilled archer who favors the scoped double crossbow as her primary weapon.
Kaitlyn is currently tasked with running missions south of Kestel River and west to the mountain slopes. This region was originally Lastwall territory but over the past several decades has fallen to orc forces and they now hold all of the eastern slope of the Mindspin mountains all the way south to the border of Nirmathas. Kaitlyn is a shrewd special forces ranger officer and is never foolish enough to take on such mission by herself and thus when encountered in the field will always have a team of Ranger (rogues, scouts, rangers, etc) with her ranging in level from 3 – 5th.
Kaitlyn's History
Kaitlyn is unique in my campaign in that she was born as human. During one of her adventures into Belkzen however her party was forced to undertake a challenge to defeat a Shadow Drake in order to gain audience with an orc goddess said to grant visions or boons to anyone who could pass her challenge. Kaitlyn simply did not survive this test. Many miles away Raemon instantly knew of her death, abandoned the mission he was on and went to find her.
Raemon reasoned that since she had fallen while searching for a God, and it is said that the Gods will grant a single request from completing this challenge, then if he could find her and complete the challenge himself that she could be returned to him…assuming he survived the challenge that is.
Raemon not only passed the test, but was granted audience with the orc goddess. The goddess appeared as a very old orc female and told Rae that while she sympathized for the loss of his friend, their relationship had never been complete. Although Raemon and Kaitlyn loved each other, she was a human and he was a halfling, thus fate had decreed that they would forever remain platonic friends. The goddess stated that she simply would not return Kaitlyn to such a broken life.
Moments later Raemon walked out of the cave carrying a living but unconscious form wrapped in his cloak, and all but hidden from the prying eyes of the members of Kaitlyn's party. The body that Raemon had carried out however was not that a of human woman, which would have been much too large for Rae to carry, but was the size of a human child. As Raemon passed the camp of Kaitlyn's surviving party members he said not a word, he simply glared at each of them in turn for a moment as he passed through. In his silent glare they could clearly see the anger written across his face, and knew without a doubt that he held them fully responsible for her death and if any of them were to speak a single word he would likely stop and murder all of them them where they stood. As he continued past the fire at the center of the camp Krysis (a wood elf Rogue) caught sight of Kaitlyn's signature red curly hair as it fell free of the cloak and the slightest movement of life from within its folds.
Thus it was that Raemon left the camp with his package and mounted the saddled griffon that anxiously waited for him at the far side of the clearing. Once they were securely strapped into the saddle, the griffon took to the night sky with a single flap of its powerful wings and disappeared into the dark expanse.
Since that day the members of Kaitlyn's ill fated party have kept a very large birth away from Raemon. Two of them have died in other Ranger missions, and a couple of others have simply left Lastwall to pursue other missions or interests. Rae still carries a deep grudge against the members of the team, yet to his credit has never tried to take revenge against them.
Kaitlyn has remained close to her human sister, although due to memory loss associated with her reincarnation she has lost much of the memories of her former life. As a result the close family connections with the rest of her human family have faded into obscurity, allowing both her and her former human family to move on. These days Kaitlyn and Katrina (her younger sister by birth) refer to each other as "big sis" and "little sis" with Kaitlyn being the "little sis". Kaitlyn really has no memories of Katrina as a "sister" however, merely someone she is close to and loves dearly.

These last few weeks I have hardly picked up a ball of yarn. But I have got two magazines patterns ready and on Ravelry.
The first is the Cockleshell Wrap. This was originally in Knit last spring.
The wrap is made of two pieces which are sewn together in an L shape. The wrap can be used like this or the ends can be seamed to form a cowl.
The L can be worn in various ways, with the point at the front or the back.
I used J&S 2 ply lace weight, but it could also be knitted in other lace weight yarns.
To buy the Cockleshell Wrap pattern click the button:
The second pattern was in Knit Now about a year ago. This is the Ferns and Flowers Cape.
For this, I took stitch patterns from both the Shetland and Estonian traditions.
The cape is knitted from the neck down. The body of the piece is quite short, but the lace edging is wide, consisting of several insertions separated by steeks with Fern Lace at the bottom.
This is also a lace weight pattern, this time knit up in Debbie Bliss Rialto.

The world is ordered. Once order is lost, chaos reigns. This is obvious through almost everything in daily life. When people pay attention to things that do not really matter, they may find it difficult to finally face the important things because their minds were not well prepared. Similarly, Love is ordered. When we love something out of its order, we glorify that thing, and can easily become used to treating that thing that way. For example, when we honor a good above an obviously greater good, we lose sight of the proper value of things and unjustly give attention to things. In Augustine's Confessions, Augustine discusses the hierarchy of goods. He states that all things are good in their proper place. So, food and drink are good. They both nourish our bodies and make us feel good. We get a certain amount of satisfaction when we eat and drink. Having friends is good too. We also receive satisfaction from relationships with others. But we do so in a much more meaningful way through learning, sacrifice, and charity. However, Augustine states that when we place our love for food and drink above our love of friendship, we inordinately love food and drink. We become obsessed with that good and undervalue what rightfully is a better good.
Ordering our lives well also includes ordering the love for the goods in our lives. Social media, albeit a good in this world, are things which can easily be mistreated. Once people start replacing the love they have for social media above the love for actual conversations, they undervalue real relationships and obsess over something too much. You may say, however, that social media is a way to enrich your relationship with someone else. And while this is true to a certain extent, depending on social media for all of the development of a relationship is dangerous. Social media, due to the fact that people who use it so often, can easily be a place where people falsely feel close to their "friends" or "followers." Through pictures and posts, you may feel like you are close to someone. But because there are no actual interactions, the only thing you learn about the other is facts. You miss every other good thing in a relationship with that other person. You feel as though you are right there with them, but you are not. You are by yourself on the couch, watching others live their lives separately. Social media can give you a false sense of being close with people even though in reality you are not. Thus, when people spend more time on social media than with people, they learn more about other people's lives than other people in actuality.
In another sense, Social media are dangerous because they force habits on those who are used to using them. Social media, as I mentioned earlier, gives people access to information–quick information. Through snapchat, people can see what others are doing just through the quick tap on the phone. And especially now, with snapchat's fairly recent News stories, people have easy access to a lot of quick information. Though oftentimes morally reprehensible and disgusting, these News stories supply the snapper with quick and easy stories just through the tap of a finger. It makes accessing the news much simpler. But also, it makes the reader accustomed to quick information. Through getting used to accessing information this way, with little time to actually process and think about the new information, the snapper may get lazy and desert other ways he gets news. He abandon critical thinking skills, eventually even just accepting what he says as true and never really finding out a truly accurate answer. He may get used to not asking himself "why," which will ultimately hurt him in the long run.
In total, social media, although a good, is a low good and must be treated thus. It is a way we use to communicate with one another, but it is merely a way. Once social media replace actual conversations, we have messed up somewhere. But it is not too late if you feel like social media have enslaved you. You can always just take a break from it. Periodically deleting apps on your phone may help you take space away from social media. I often delete apps off of my phone months at a time to ensure that I never become addicted to some. Using social media does not make you a bad person, but just like everything in life, goods are ordered, and are so justly. We must be careful to honor their places.

I consider myself a reasonably well-educated person when it comes to peak oil, climate change, and alternative forms of energy. So Fuel—a film by Joshua Tickell, who's personally invested his life in biodiesel and conducting an "intervention" into our oil addiction—didn't strike me as a must-see film at first. Narrated by Tickell (whose heavy-handed storytelling was accurately described as "schmaltzy" by a woman leaving the theater ahead of me), the first three-quarters of Fuel mirror other recent enviro-docs like An Inconvenient Truth—outlining his crusade to save the planet, Tickell tells us that we have to find another way to fuel our lives. Yeah, no duh.
Tickell's answer is biodiesel. But wait: Isn't biodiesel the stuff that's pushing out food crops on the world's finite arable land, and driving up food prices? It's not like there's enough McDonald's fry grease to fill all of our tanks. This cannot possibly be the answer.
But then Tickell redeems himself: The last quarter of the film is astounding, explaining how biodiesel from algae and from trees that can be grown in the crappiest of soils might really be the answer. Put aside your green Portlander know-it-all attitude (ahem), do yourself a favor, and go check it out. Q&A with director Joshua Tickell during evening screenings on Friday, November 14 and Saturday, November 15. See Movie Times for details.

A former music teacher who filmed himself sexually assaulting boys and who amassed 350,000 indecent images of children has had his sentence slashed.
Philip Evans, who taught at King Edward's School in Edgbaston, abused two teenage boys on camera and covertly photographed others.
Evans, 39, most recently of Parkland Road, Cheltenham, was caged for 44 months at Birmingham Crown Court last December after he admitted sexual assault, voyeurism and making indecent images of children.
But three senior judges at London's Appeal Court have now upheld Evans' sentence challenge and slashed his jail term by more than a quarter to 32 months.
Lord Justice Davis said Evans was a man of previous good character with an unblemished teaching career of more than 13 years when his crimes came to light.
The appeal judge said Evans used spy cameras, bought from a specialist security firm in the US, to capture images of children while they were either naked or partially dressed.
He also used a hidden camera to secretly record footage of an adult man showering. Evans videoed himself abusing boys aged 13 to 15.
Aside from his direct recordings, police discovered that Evans had gathered a catalogue of indecent images of children, although 90 per cent of the 350,000 snaps were said to be of the least serious level.
When Evans was quizzed by cops he eventually admitted using the cameras to record children. In relation to the sexual assaults, he said: "I might have gotten a bit too close".
The author of a pre-sentence report said Evans had "struggled to come to terms with his sexuality" and had emotional problems.
He was "entirely remorseful", took full responsibility for his offending and expressed a desire to address his problems, the appeal judge said.
On appeal, his barrister argued that, as the vast majority of the images were of the least serious type, the part of his jail term which related to them was excessive.
Lord Justice Davis, sitting with Mr Justice King and Mr Justice Holroyde, said Evans still had thousands of images above the lowest level of seriousness.
But he continued: "Nevertheless, it had to be said Evans had strong mitigation, quite apart from his plea.
"For example, his previous good character, he was truly remorseful, the effect on his reputation and career has been disastrous, and he is making strong and determined attempts to address his behavioural problems."
The appeal judge slashed Evans' total sentence from 44 months to 32 months.
He will remain on the sex offenders' register and subject to a sexual offences prevention order, as before.

Coronation Street actor Sean Ward will switch on Chorley's Christmas lights this year.
Sean, who played Callum Logan, will do the honours on the Market Street stage on Saturday, November 14.
The 27-year-old actor was in the top soap for the last year and has only just left the show after his character was killed by Kylie Platt.
Organised by Chorley Council, the Christmas lights switch on festivities will start at 3.30pm - with the big switch on scheduled for 6pm.
There will be a Christmas market along Fazakerley Street and Rock FM will get the party started on stage with another great line-up of amazing performers, including X Factor's Misha B.
Additionally, there will be performances from up and coming acts including, singer Chris Atkinson and girl band, Distracted.
Deputy leader of Chorley Council, councillor Peter Wilson, said: "We can't wait to see the Christmas lights sparkling across the town centre again and we're absolutely thrilled that Sean Ward who was the star of Coronation Street's recent live episode, will be coming to Chorley to do the honours."

Rock singer Gwen Stefani, 44, and husband Gavin Rossdale, 48, had a surprise family reunion when they bumped into the Bush frontman's model daughter Daisy Lowe, in a London park recently.
What are the chances?
As well as catching up with her half-brothers Kingston, eight, and Zuma, five, it was the first time model Daisy , 25, had met the couple's six-month- old son Apollo.
How nice.
Blonde bombshell Gwen was snapped pushing the buggy next to her hubby, and looked chic in a tight white top and cut off jeans.
She even showed she's still a big kid at heart and climbed a climbing frame to join her son Zuma - before giving him a cute kiss.
Meanwhile Daisy stunned in a tiny black and white dungaree style dress and white crop top, showing off her incredible figure.
The stunner even had her dog with her, it feels like the whole park was full of just the one family.
Meanwhile Gavin and their eldest son Kingston, eight, sat back with the baby, which we just love.
After finishing on the climbing frame, Gwen had a taste for adventure and moved on to swings and all sorts.
We're a bit jealous actually.
It came after Gwen was revealed as the new judge on The Voice USA, to replace pregnant Christina Aguilera at the time.
The No Doubt frontwoman will join the NBC show while the Dirrty singer will take a season off to concentrate on her pregnancy .
Sounds a plan.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES:^DJI) is trading flat today, down less than 0.1% as of 2:45 p.m. EDT following mixed economic data and earnings reports. Sales of existing homes fell 1.9% in September from August and face more headwinds going forward. "Home affordability is getting hit quite sharply," National Association of Realtors chief economist Lawrence Yun said, according to Morningstar. Home prices are increasing quickly, while incomes are barely rising, "and now we have higher mortgage rates compared to a year ago. Lower affordability will hamper home sales going forward."
While the Dow on a plateau, here are some movers and shakers today.
General Electric (NYSE:GE) is the index's biggest winner today, trading 2.5% higher. Investors ate up the company's third-quarter results and have sent the stock price to its highest mark in five years. General Electric's strategy to simplify operations and improve profitability is beginning to gain momentum as the company posted a 120-basis-point improvement in third quarter industrial margins to 15.4%. General Electric's industrial division posted 11% growth in profit and is stronger than it has been in years. Investors also have reason to be optimistic going forward, as General Electric's backlogs are worth a record $229 billion and the company continues to return value to shareholders through share repurchases and dividend increases. So far this year General Electric has repurchased $8 billion of its stock and paid out nearly $6 billion in dividends.
Outside of the Dow, Ford (NYSE:F) is gearing up for what should be a great third-quarter earnings conference call on Thursday. Ford's most profitable vehicle is the F-Series truck and sales have continued to be very strong throughout the year. Ford considers any month where F-Series sales break 50,000 a good month; sales this year have topped 60,000 in six of the nine months and have even topped 70,000 twice.
F-Series sales should fuel a strong North America performance for the Blue Oval, but investors should key in on one other important region: Europe.
Ford had previously expected to lose as much as $2 billion in Europe this year, but management recently revised the estimate down to $1.8 billion. Halfway through the year, Ford was still on pace to lose less than $1.8 billion, and the third quarter will give us a much clearer picture of whether Ford was being cautious with that estimate. Lower than expected losses in Europe would be a huge win for investors because returning operations in Europe to profitability is the quickest way for Ford to boost its earnings per share by 2015.

Sometimes you hold an antique pocket watch in your hand and are just amazed by its age and condition that takes your breath away and here is a fantastic 18ct pocket watch by John Cross that was made in 1848.
There are so many unique aspects of this pocket watch that makes it so special and unlike any that we have had before.
Pocket watches come in two main forms – without a front cover (open face pocket watch) or with a front cover (full hunter pocket watch). When they don't have a front cover, they usually have the bow of the pocket watch at the 12 o'clock position and when it is a full hunter pocket watch, the bow is at the 3 o'clock position, however this is an open face pocket watch with the bow at the 3 o'clock position.
Furthermore, when you push on the top of the bow, it springs open the front of the pocket watch exactly as a full hunter pocket watch would do.
Not only is the dial all original, it is in spectacular condition which is incredible considering that it is over 160 years old. With traditional black Roman numerals and the sub-seconds, the time is displayed with those elegant Breguet style minute and hour hands.
Turning the pocket watch over reveals the most intricate and high quality hand engraving that would have painstakingly taken hours to engrave by hand and opening the back and the dust cover reveals a gorgeous and immaculate movement signed "John B Cross 70 Cornbill London". Completely serviced and complete with our twelve month warranty, this has what is called a diamond end stone on the balance which can be seen in the close up image of the movement.
John Cross made some very high grade pocket watches as well as clocks, and this pocket watch by him is certainly no exception and a fantastic testament to the quality of craftsmanship all those years ago.

A clip of this evenings Panorama was shown on Breakfast TV this morning showing an elderly patient being mistreated in a first class care home where charges are I believe up to £700.a week.
My elderly and beautiful wife is tenderness itself, yet sometimes I cry out in anguish when she touches me because over the years my skin has become so tender and now feels as thin as tissue paper.
I couldn't imagine what it would be like to be a patient in such a place.
Let us hope that Panorama helps weed out those UNCARERS and at the same time recognise those wonderful people out there that truly do care.

THE TYRANNY OF OIL| | Monday, December 1, 2008
| Labels: author events, current events
Antonia Juhasz, author of The Bush Agenda, returns to Northtown Books to present her new book The Tyranny of Oil. The event happens Thursday, December 4, at 7 pm.
In her new book, Juhasz shows how Big Oil manages to hide its business dealings from policy makers, legislators, and most of all, consumers. She reveals exactly how Big Oil gets what it wants—through money, influence, and lies.
Drawing on considerable historical research, Juhasz explores the parallels between today's companies and Standard Oil, the most powerful corporation of the early 20th century, whose stranglehold on the economy and government was broken only by the vision and persistence of activists and like-minded politicians. We are in a similar position today, she argues, with the 2008 elections offering a unique opportunity for ordinary Americans to come together, reclaim their voices, and shore up our nation's crumbling democratic foundation.
Please join us for this timely event. For more information, check out her website.
She'll also be appearing the night before, December 3rd, in an event sponsored by the Humboldt Green Party at the Labor Temple in Eureka (840 E Street). It also takes place at 7 pm.
Juhasz was recently interviewed by Terry Gross for NPR's Fresh Air.

If you are concerned about your future employment, there are ways to have protection against unemployment. Fears about unemployment can effect the choices you make for your finances and your family. It is wise to be cautious, however, living your life in fear of losing your job is not a great life. This article will provide you with some tips to get unemployment protection in your life.
Things You Will NeedHard work, updated skills
Step 1
Concentrate and work hard at your current job. Arrive early and stay late if needed to get your work completed. If you are one of the "lucky" ones that still has a job, you are probably doing the same work as two or three people once did. Work hard and so those who are in charge during the next round of lay-offs understand that losing you would be hard to replace.
Step 2If you need to buy a major item like a car or washer and dryer, look for offers that will resume your payments if you lose your job. Make sure the terms of the deal are favorable. For example, make sure that the offer will immediately start paying your loan (not a 12 month waiting period). Also make sure that the payments will keep coming if you remain unemployed. If you can avoid major purchases, then it is always better.
Step 3
Watch your cash flow. Work to pay off as much debt as possible, but maintain at least 2 months salary in cash or another very liquid form, you can access quickly. Do everything possible to reach the 2 month salary rule while you are still working.
Step 4
Take some college or technical school classes outside of work time. There are some good jobs going unfulfilled because specialty training is needed. Find a niche to put yourself in a position to protect yourself against unemployment. Look in the help wanted papers and online jobs web sites in your local area to find out the type of classes to pursue.

Hi Guys, I'm pleased to introduce ya'll a new BinaryOptionsThatSuck.com Home Made strategy, this time - Michael aka The Geek Hodges's Simple Stochastic Trend Following! Time frames set to long term, perfect for slower traders
Orginially posted by Michael Hodges. Find the full review here - Stochastic Trend Following Binary Options Strategy
This strategy doesn't suck for a couple of reasons. First it utilizes multiple time frames. Multiple time frame analysis is one that I and others here at BOTS think very highly of. It also utilizes trend analysis and follows the old adage of "trade with the trend the trend is your friend". It also doesn't suck because it is a simple and reliable way to trade. It is also a great foundation for deeper analysis as you gain knowledge and experience. Stochastic works well with all kinds of other technical analysis techniques and can also give other types of signals besides trend following.

The business, both large and small, in Zebulon, NC, rely heavily on their network of computers and peripherals to operate and remain productive. These critical assets are the technique to maintain their distinct competitive advantage within their industry. The obstinate characteristic of cyber criminals, disgruntled current and former employees and overall carelessness of users can shut down your computer networks and compromise data, especially your critical data. CII Technology Solutions is Zebulon's leading network security service and safeguard provider. What is network security? Network security contains the hardware, software, policies and procedures designed and functions to defend against internal and external threats aimed at your company's computer systems. Multi-layered safeguard of hardware and software can prevent threats from doing considerable harm to computer networks, and stop the spread if they manage to slip past the defenses.
Zebulon companies are not immune to the attacks from hackers and malicious programs aimed at either damaging your system or stealing information. Looking at the specific or common threats, aimed at Zebulon networks, will shed some light on the subject and with the expert help of CII's experienced experts to shore up any vulnerabilities lurking in your system.
- Malicious programs such as: viruses, worms, Trojan horses, spyware, malware, adware and botnets
- Zero-day and Zero-hour attacks
- Hacker attacks
- Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service Attacks (DDoS)
- Data theft
Each of these threats are designed specifically to exploit:
- Unsecured wireless networks
- Unpatched software and hardware
- Unsecured websites
- Potentially unwanted applications (PUAs)
- Weak passwords
- Lost devices
- Unwitting users or users with malicious intent
As a Zebulon company, what can you fundamentally do to protect your valuable network from these threats? The top 5 fundamentals of network security, or fundamentals you can implement in your company, are important. They will provide system safeguard and undisputable benefits: downtime prevention, government regulation compliance, reduced liability and reputation safeguard.
- Hardware and Software updates and patches must be kept current. Lax application of updates and patches expose vulnerabilities cyber criminals can exploit.
- Strong Passwords are highly recommended. The preferred and recommended passwords are at least 6 characters (more is better), and uses a combination of upper- and lower-case letters, numbers and symbols.
- Your VPN (Virtual Private Network) must be secure. Encryption is critical.
- User access must be actively managed. Inappropriate user-access privileges pose a significant security threat. Managing employee access to critical data on an ongoing basis should not be overlooked. When an employee's job changes, make sure the IT department is notified so their access privileges can be modified to fit the duties of the new position.
- Clean-up inactive accounts. Inactive accounts leave a gapping vulnerability that exposes the entire network.
These are very important items to consider and maintain in your Zebulon network security plan. CII can help put a complete network security plan in place and begin a custom designed security monitoring program. CII Technology Solutions understands you're in business because you do what you do well. We are dedicated to supporting your business by providing outsourced network security programs designed specifically for your unique business. Additionally, when review the current state of your network security, there are a few questions to think about:
- Does your Zebulon company maintain a list of authorized software and applications? Are authorized users privy to this list?
- Are your company's written security policies up to date? If so, does it spell out which, if any, personal devices can access the company network and state explicitly how much time users have to report lost or stolen devices?
- Does your network segregate critical data from the rest of the network and require users to authenticate before access is granted?
CII Technology Solutions has mulled about these questions and more. We know exactly what questions to ask to make sure every facet of your network is covered from top to bottom. We will recommend steps and any changes needed to close loopholes and remove vulnerabilities. If you are looking for a Zebulon network security company that has your company's best interests at heart and has an unmatched level of integrity and dependability, then CII Technology Solutions is ready to help.

Blessing Our Circumstances
Pears ready for picking. I am trying to forget the hornets and wasps that also seem to come with the picking.
My lawn chair sitting amongst the fruit trees.....green, green, green.
And, a little burst of sunshine to go along with all of the green. A whimsical looking sunflower that grew in our garden last year.
Then, after my mental field trip, my husband came home from work. He rounded up the kids and took them to a local basketball game. I stayed home in the peace and quiet.
