Street food is one of the most exciting emerging sectors of the foodie landscape, creating impromptu dining experiences made possible by following trucks on Twitter or Facebook to find out where they are, and then lining up on the street to get some of the (often unique) food being served up.
It was only a matter of time before a book came out dedicated to the subject, and Food Trucks: Dispatches and Recipes from the Best Kitchens on Wheels is a fun and timely ode to The New Street Food. It is full of stories and recipes, mostly savory, but a small handful of sweet ones.
The one that I zeroed in on, though? Yellow Submarine in Miami, Florida--because they had the most compelling dessert recipe, for Chocolate Pudding and Cookies. It's sort of like my favorite Banana Nilla Wafer pudding, but with chocolate pudding and no bananas.
Angela's Chocolate Pudding and Cookies
8-12 servings
- 2 boxes (3.5 oz) chocolate pudding (cook and serve)
- 4 cups cold milk
- 1 can Nestle table cream
- 1 can condensed milk
- 2 (3.15 oz) packages Goya Maria cookies (mexican butter cookies)
- Make the pudding according the package instructions. Let the pudding rest for 2-3 minutes, then add the table cream and condensed milk, mixing very well.
- Into a large, round glass bowl, pour enough of the chocolate mixture to cover the bottom of the container. Add a layer of the Maria cookies, then top with a layer of the pudding; repeat until the cookies and chocolate mixture are used up. Let the treat rest in the fridge for 2 hours, then spoon out on to plates and serve.

Body of Work: The Top 20 Fitness Icons
The Rock (Hard) Star: Gwen Stefani
Before Gwen Stefani began strutting her stuff as the superfly front woman for the otherwise all-guy band No Doubt in 1995, the role of female lead singer tended more toward being a sexpot than having a six-pack. The blond bombshell, now 42, brought a new athleticism to the stage with a bod she credits to "lifting weights [and] a little boxing."
The Legend: Jane Fonda
She has played many roles — Oscar winner, political activist, billionaire's wife — but for millions of women, Jane Fonda's legacy is all about leg warmers. It was 1982, and fresh off her triumph in On Golden Pond, one of Hollywood's leading ladies, at the age of 44, decided her next act would be as a fitness guru. Workout: Starring Jane Fonda, originally on VHS and Beta, remains the best-selling fitness video of all time, having sold 17 million copies.
"It launched the home fitness video industry and made it okay for women to have muscles," Fonda reflects. Only years after its release did she reveal that the cover photo of her in a striped leotard and those maroon leg warmers, legs scissored skyward, was that of a woman who had embraced exercise as a way to save herself from bulimia.
In 2010, despite hip and knee replacements, Fonda was back in the studio — wearing yoga pants now — to film her Prime Time DVD series targeted at inspiring older people to move. At 74, Fonda loves hiking up mountains, and she has a body most 30-year-olds would envy. Her secret? "It's one-third good genes and less than one-third diet, and all the rest is working out," she says. When asked what's next, Fonda demurs. "I don't know. And if I did, I wouldn't tell because I wouldn't want someone else to get there first."
The Good Cop: Bob Harper
He is The Biggest Loser's beating heart, a tattooed hunk who helps change lives on TV. In 2004, Bob Harper, then a trainer and Spinning instructor in Los Angeles, answered a casting call for a weight-loss reality show.
"I remember being turned off by the title," he recalls. "I wanted to make sure the show depicted obese Americans in the best possible light." Now in its 13th season, The Biggest Loser is a six-day-a-week commitment, yet Harper still finds time to teach a Saturday group fitness class at Crunch and work on his growing product line, which includes supplements, an interactive website, and his book The Skinny Rules: The Simple, Nonnegotiable Principles to Getting to Thin. (Rule 18: "Go to bed slightly hungry.")
Harper's current fitness crush is CrossFit, the interval workout program that includes a lot of reps and plyometrics. "I've put on more muscle," he says of his new regimen's effect. "I shot the cover for a men's magazine, and when I saw it, I thought, Whoa, that's pretty good for a 46-year-old man!"
Steven Simko
The Comeback Kid: Dara Torres
Ronald Reagan was in office when 17-year-old Dara Torres swam in her first Olympics, in Los Angeles in 1984. Four presidents later the California native is still making waves. Now 45, an age when most swimmers have long hung up their Speedos, Torres is trying for a mind-boggling sixth Olympics this year in London. She's already swum the qualifying time in the 50-meter freestyle, the event for which she holds the U.S. record. The oldest woman ever to swim in the Olympic Games, she's attempting to add to her total medal count of 12, including three silvers from the 2008 Beijing games, where she narrowly lost the gold in the 50-meter freestyle to a German swimmer half her age.
Unlike many women on the other side of 40, Torres is happy to reveal her age. Her statuesque physique, with its broad shoulders and egg-carton abs, seems chiseled from marble — if marble had a tan. "I found myself saying 'Age is just a number' so many times that I titled my memoir with that mantra," says Torres, who lives in Florida with her 6-year-old daughter, Tessa Grace, and trains up to six hours a day. "Age is definitely part of who I am, but it certainly doesn't define me."
The Trailblazer: Lisa Leslie
You can see Lisa Leslie's history-making 2002 slam dunk on YouTube. "Nobody, nowhere, no how has ever done it in the WNBA," crows the announcer. The crowd loses its collective mind. The six-foot-five Leslie leaps into the arms of a Los Angeles Sparks teammate.
When Leslie, now 39, was in middle school in Compton, California, there was no girls' basketball team, but that didn't stop her from becoming a star center at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. She helped christen the Women's National Basketball Association and then ruled it for 12 years, snagging one accolade after another: eight-time All-Star, three-time MVP, two-time defensive player of the year, and one reputation as the best all-around player in the history of women's basketball. "My mom taught me the importance of responsibility and hard work," the now-retired Leslie has said. "Struggle is good."
The Troop Leader: Michelle Obama
Even though the 48-year-old mother of two gets up at 4:30 A.M. to work out, first lady Michelle Obama is amused by the media attention her buff-itude attracts. Her first major initiative, Let's Move, launched in 2010, is aimed at fighting childhood obesity by encouraging kids to exercise and eat food that comes out of the ground rather than a vending machine. To underscore her seriousness, she took on TV hosts in push-up contests — and won. "I'm pretty much willing to make a complete fool out of myself to get our kids moving," she has said.
The Badass: Jillian Michaels
She is a new kind of health-and-wellness expert: the dreamy drill sergeant whose supertoned body has given women an attainable alternative to the rail-thin aesthetic. In Jillian Michaels's 10 seasons on The Biggest Loser her teams won every time, and her success has taken her where no trainer had gone before: onto countless magazine covers and into Super Bowl ads. Her DVDs, books, podcast, WiiFit and Xbox games, and fitness equipment and apparel have made Michaels, 38, an industry unto herself.
Her many fans know that Michaels's woman-of-steel persona springs from her own weight-loss struggles as a teenager, which she conquered after taking up martial arts. They also know that her hard shell surrounds a soft-candy center.
Michaels is in the process of adopting a child, and she says pending motherhood has already changed her thinking. "In a perfect world, I would be trying to make a dent in causes that matter to me, like child protection and welfare," she muses. "The one thing I've learned for sure is that you can plan all you want, but your best bet is to prepare for anything."
The Pied Piper: Mia Hamm
It's hard to believe she turned 40 this year, the intense, quicksilver soccer forward with a dark ponytail who helped put women's sports on the map. In 1996, in front of the largest crowd ever assembled for a women's sporting event, Mia Hamm led the U.S. women's national team to its first-ever Olympic gold medal. By the time she retired in 2004, she led had her team to two World Cup championships and two Olympic golds and scored more goals — 151 — than any other soccer player in history, male or female. But most important, Hamm was the poster girl for millions of soccer-playing little girls who wanted to be like Mia: strong, passionate, and not afraid to sweat. And she is still paying it forward, having joined with former teammates Kristine Lilly and Tisha Venturini Hoch to create the Team First Soccer Academy. "We want to share our experiences playing at the highest level by helping girls reach their own potential in soccer and in life," Hamm says.
The Court Royals: Venus and Serena Williams
Follow the Twitter feed of sports' most famous sisters and you'll get an inside look at the sort of sisterly issues they lob back and forth — @VenusWilliams: My car is out of gas; can I drive yours, pleez? @SerenaWilliams: Please stay out of my room. It's booby trapped!
Of course, Venus and Serena are not your typical sisters, unless you consider two phenoms from Compton, California, who transformed the way women play tennis and manage their careers perfectly normal. We've watched them grow up in public, from exuberant teens with braces and braids to glamour girls who would just as soon wear stilettos as sneakers. They share a mansion in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
Between them they have 82 tennis titles and five Olympic gold medals. Venus, 31, burst onto the professional tennis scene in 1994 at the age of 14, and eight years afterward became the first African-American woman to be ranked number one in the world. Serena became the second later that year. In 2006, Venus represented the Women's Tennis Association at talks that ultimately resulted in female players getting prize money equal to their male counterparts' at tournaments. All power and muscle and ferocity, Serena, 30, is the greatest tennis player of her generation, with 13 Grand Slam singles titles and the highest earnings — $35 million — of any woman in the history of professional sports. Venus is the second-highest earner.
Both have also had their setbacks. Serena has suffered foot injuries and blood clots in her lungs, and Venus has been diagnosed with Sjögren's syndrome, an autoimmune disease. "I'm continuing to stay positive and work hard," Venus tweeted a fan after playing on the winning Fed Cup team in February. "Things will be amazing."
The Vogue Maven: Madonna
Look no further than her sweatastic Super Bowl half-time show to believe that Madonna is still calling the shots on what's hot. But then she has always been ahead of the exercise curve, whether it be Pilates or vibrating Power Plates. Madonna, 53 and forever young, has even opened her own gym chain, Hard Candy Fitness. Her message to members: "build strength as far as the imagination will allow."
The Conqueror: Lance Armstrong
He couldn't have known, growing up in Texas as a rebellious kid with a single mom and a passion for cycling, that beating cancer — and not just beating it, but beating it into submission — would be his enduring legacy even though his name is one of the sports world's most celebrated. It would have been enough if Lance Armstrong had merely survived the testicular cancer that had spread to his lungs and brain and abdomen at age 25. It would have been enough if he had merely been able to compete in the Tour de France, cycling's most grueling and prestigious event. But no; after going into remission, he had to win the race not once but seven years in a row, setting a heroic and inspiring new standard for cancer survivorship.
"The one thing the illness has convinced me of beyond all doubt," he writes in his blockbuster 2000 memoir, It's Not About the Bike, "is that we are much better than we know."
Chances are you or someone you know wears a Nike-designed Livestrong bracelet, which is rendered in the same yellow as Armstrong's Tour de France jersey. (They quickly became the inspiration for a raft of color-coded rubbery cause bracelets.) Today, more than 80 million Livestrong bracelets have been sold at a buck apiece to raise funds for cancer research and support — 80 million reminders that, to paraphrase a popular Armstrong-ism, hope is stronger than fear.
The Natural: Elle Macpherson
This Aussie knockout shows that a supermodel can be all about fitness, not famine. "My favorite high school memories are of waking at 5 a.m. and riding my bicycle to swim practice every day," Elle Macpherson says. "This joy for sports has stayed with me all my life." It's true; Macpherson, 48, surfs, paddleboards, skis, water-skis, rides horses, and hikes.
The Gold Standard: Jackie Joyner-Kersee
Track-and-field icon Jackie Joyner-Kersee gets bored on the treadmill, just like the rest of us. "I have to mix it up: I adjust the incline or the speed, run a minute, walk a minute — anything to make the time go faster," she admits.
Joyner-Kersee's graciousness and lack of pretension are arguably as famous as her achievements. Named the greatest female athlete of the 20th century by Sports Illustrated for Women, she has held the world record for the heptathlon — 100-meter hurdles, high jump, long jump, shot put, javelin, and 200-meter and 400-meter runs — for 24 years; in sports, that's an eternity. A four-time world champion, Joyner-Kersee's trove of six Olympic medals, won from 1988 to 1996, includes three golds, one silver, and two bronzes.
Winning that first gold medal in the heptathlon at the 1988 games in Seoul "is still and always will be a thrill," she says. For us, too. For 16 years, fans of the Summer Olympics watched her run, jump, and throw with an explosiveness and joy that remains unrivaled. These days, at 50, her life revolves around public speaking and doing community work in her hometown of East Saint Louis, Illinois, where she mentors a high school girls' track team. "I don't approach my speaking and coaching engagements as if I'm some superstar," Joyner-Kersee says. "I want to inspire and motivate and have people appreciate my hard work."
The Energizer Bunny: Denise Austin
She is a human exclamation point, petite and bubbly and relentlessly upbeat, the unstoppable force who made exercise a fixture on morning TV. "I just want people to know that you can feel better and get energized about yourself," says Denise Austin, the queen of small-screen fitness and Idaho potato pitchwoman. "That's been my mission, and it still is."
Austin, now 55, burst onto the scene in 1981, when she talked Jack LaLanne into letting her cohost his daily fitness show. That led to gigs on the Today show, ESPN, and Lifetime. Her videos and DVDs — the latest is Shape Up & Shed Pounds — have earned her a place in the Video Hall of Fame.
"Everything in moderation," Austin says of staying trim. And yes, potatoes are okay: "They're a vegetable."
Ericka McConnell
The Success Story: Valerie Bertinelli
First she was the adorable girl-next-door on One Day at a Time and then the adorable wife of rocker Eddie Van Halen. Then, still adorable, Valerie Bertinelli committed the biggest felony in showbiz: She got fat. She lived in tunics until 2007, when she publicly shed 40 pounds on the Jenny Craig diet program and became an everywoman emblem for a nation struggling with its waistline. Her ultimate weight-loss motivator: "embracing the fact that I was worth it," Bertinelli, 52, has said.
The It Girl: Gabrielle Reece
In 1989 a six-foot-three green-eyed blonde stood out as a kick-butt volleyball player at Florida State University in Tallahassee. Gabrielle Reece led the NCAA in kills and held school records in solo and total blocks, which still stand. That year Elle magazine named her one of the five most beautiful women in the world. Reece, a new sort of role model, had arrived: ripped, ultracompetitive, ultrafeminine.
Reece claims to have been a late bloomer, not having a real clue about her athletic potential until she was 17 or so. "I was six-foot-three at 15," she says. "Goofy does not to begin to describe my efforts to do a cartwheel."
After college, Reece continued her hybrid career, captaining the four-person Team Nike for the Women's Beach Volleyball League while also appearing in magazines and hosting TV shows, like The Extremists with Gabrielle Reece, on which she met her husband, the big-wave surfer Laird Hamilton.
Now 42, Reece still graces magazine covers in her bikini — she once joked that she was a babe for a living — while parenting three daughters. She currently holds free training sessions at the community center near where she and her family live, in Kauai, Hawaii, and is working on a new book. Her greatest achievement, Reece says, is being able to live in a way that reflects who she really is. "I might feel differently if I had won a bunch of gold medals, but all the fanfare, being voted the most whatever, comes and goes," she says. "I've been fortunate to live this physically active life."
The Visionary: Billie Jean King
It's not a stretch to say that every professional female athlete who doesn't have to hold down a day job has Billie Jean King to thank. And also that girls who find a level playing field in sports today owe her a debt as well.
When Billie Jean Moffitt, 17, the daughter of a Southern California housewife and a fireman, first went to Wimbledon in 1961, local Long Beach tennis enthusiasts helped pay her travel costs. She proceeded to dominate the tournament for the next two decades. King founded the Women's Tennis Association in 1973 and, that same year, whupped former pro Bobby Riggs in the sensationalized Battle of the Sexes. Title IX, the ban on gender discrimination in public schools, had just passed, and as King explains, "I wanted to change the hearts and minds of people to match the legislation."
Gaining equality would become her life's work: She went on to found the Women's Sports Foundation, an organization that has raised more than $125 million to advance girls' and women's participation in physical activities.
King, 69, may have had knee replacements, but otherwise is fit and enjoying life, thank you very much.
King says she hopes her legacy will be a society modeled after the World TeamTennis circuit she created: "Men and women competing together on the same team with equal contributions from both genders. That is what I want the world to look like."
The Activist: Alice Waters
If your idea of a good meal is a piece of locally caught fish and a salad made from the greens grown in your garden or purchased at the local farmers' market, you're a culinary descendant of Alice Waters. The 69-year-old "mother of American cooking" is the founder of the legendary Chez Panisse, in Berkeley, California, and a prime force behind the notion that organic food, grown locally, is the healthiest food for you and your community. Her best advice for eating well? "Find out where your food comes from — all of it."
In 1996, not content with changing how grown-ups relate to food and cooking, she founded the Edible Schoolyard Project, which teaches kids about gardening and sustainability and even how to cook. "My hope is that soon physical education will be joined by edible education," Waters says.
The Hot Commodity: Michael Jordan
We know him as the superman who became a brand. Michael Jordan, 49, has been credited with transforming pro basketball into an above-the-net experience. He owns pretty much every NBA accolade. Now, nearly 15 years after his glory days, the shoes that bear his name have still got game. The man who said, "I can accept failure, but I can't accept not trying," certainly had a golden touch. Jordan forever elevated the sneaker to a true lust object.

'Pacific Rim' Trailer: 2,500 Tons of Awesome Straight From WonderCon!
Get ready, folks, 'cause that crazy-awesome 'Pacific Rim' trailer that debuted during WonderCon has been released online for all to see, and the footage is exactly what it says, "2,500 tons of awesome!"
We were pretty pumped to see Guillermo del Toro's giant robot-vs-monsters movie come alive on the big screen, but now that Warner Bros. has decided to release this new piece of footage, which was originally intended only for the WonderCon crowd, we're simply jumping out of our seats.
As per the official plot synopses:
When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity's resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge.
The 'Pacific Rim' trailer from WonderCon has everything you might want to see from this film -- visually stunning monsters bursting out of the ocean, a giant Jaeger bot swinging an oil tanker like a baseball bat, Ron Perlman in some stunner shades, and action, action and more action. Take a look for yourself below.
'Pacific Rim' hits theaters July 12!

Choose Co-Leaders: Strong Leadership Characteristics
These characteristics were developed by the Cutting Edge project to evaluate the success of the Cutting Edge leadership program. They describe the skills needed to lead the workshop and website aspects of the Cutting Edge program.
Website leaders can
- develop strong web pages
- Web pages should be written to support scanning by users: Key points should be made clear through headings and subheadings. Text should be as concise and direct as possible without long paragraphs; using lists wherever relevant.
- Your site and its content and presentation should speak to faculty, their interests and needs. It should mirror the approaches used in similar materials elsewhere on SERC.

Soaring rents force lifestyle changes
Rising rent is forcing many to reexamine lifestyle choices and, in some cases, move out of Seattle altogether.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Developers know the idea of shuffling furniture and heavy boxes into a new apartment is especially unappealing around the holidays, Seattle's rainiest time of year.
That's why they were so surprised to see what happened last winter with The Lyric, a 234-unit building on Capitol Hill. Within four months of its November opening, the complex near Broadway and East Thomas Street was completely leased out to renters paying a startling average rent of $2,200 a month.
"You're always going to see that pop at the beginning of the leasing period because it's new, it's exciting," said Billy Pettit, senior vice president of Pillar Properties. "But then we expected a moderate leasing period. What we got was moderate times infinity."
Even after hundreds of other units opened up in Seattle this year, demand and rent prices have continued to move up and show no signs of settling down soon.
For renters and homeowners, market forces are permanently altering the familiar face of many neighborhoods. While wealthy newcomers are helping to revitalize neighborhood business districts, the reality is that many renters, saddled by stagnant wages, are being forced to reexamine lifestyle choices and, in some cases, move out of Seattle altogether.
Low housing inventory, a growing population of young tech-company workers and changing attitudes about when to buy a home are all contributing to rent increases throughout the Seattle metro area.
"It's almost a perfect storm, and we haven't seen any change in weather on the horizon," said Pettit, whose company will open its latest building, The Nolo, next month in Pioneer Square. Its average monthly rent? Also $2,200.
Widespread increases are evident in rent statistics from Zillow, an online real-estate database: In the last two years, the median rent for Seattle studio apartments has gone up $434 in Wallingford, $419 in Capitol Hill, and $306 in Ballard.
Outside of Seattle, median studio rent increased over a two-year period by $423 in Bellevue, $361 in Federal Way, and $295 in Everett.
Recent rent increases can be blind-siding. With 60 days' notice, Seattle landlords can legally increase rents as much as they want. Renters have flooded the Tenants Union of Washington State hotline in the last year, shocked at getting monthly rent increases of $300 and more.
What's fueling rent increases most is development itself, said Jonathan Grant, the Tenant Union's executive director. If almost all new units cater to wealthier tenants, he said, increasing supply is no path to getting rents to go down or even level off.
"The reality is that these units are high-cost, and often these were taken out of affordable-housing stock," Grant said. "That's why you see this theory of supply and demand being turned on its head."
Earlier this summer, The Seattle Times asked readers how they were coping with rising rents, and dozens responded.
Some told us they're reconsidering whether they'll ever be able to save enough money to buy a house if they want to stay in the Seattle area. Many told us they were looking to downsize and move to smaller units — in some cases, really small units. Others said they are being forced into long, daily commutes between work in the city and more affordable housing in the suburbs.
Almost all of them feared that by the time rent prices level off again, life in the Seattle metro area could look very different.
Scrapping saving habits and scraping by
Recent University of Washington grad Ornella Bardinelli is paying more than half her income to stay in a Fremont apartment. She said she's researched apartments in communities immediately outside the city, but finds those units are barely more affordable once she adds in the cost of commuting to work in Seattle.
The 23-year-old supplements her entry-level event-planning job, which pays about $25,000 a year, with a part-time job and any other work she can find.
"If I can make extra money somewhere, I'm there," Bardinelli said. "I'll do anything short of stripping at this point."
Even older renters with higher salaries are seeing their savings squashed by the rental crunch. Homebuying may never be in the future for some who stay in the Seattle area because they'll never be able to save enough for it.
That reality is dawning on Kim Baker, 38, of Green Lake.
Baker's rent for a 700-square-foot, two-bedroom unit she shares with her fiancé went up $100 last fall, then up another $185 this summer. Her landlord also suddenly shifted the cost of utilities to tenants with a flat $75 monthly bill.
Add it all up and, in less than a year, the monthly cost of living at Baker's apartment has gone up $360 to $1,445 per month.
It's completely shaken up the couple's short- and long-term budget plans, which also have included paying off car and student loans. She says they are moving out soon to a smaller, more affordable place to rent, most likely outside of Seattle.
"For now, renting gives us the flexibility we need. But at the same time, it is sapping our resources," said Baker. "I feel like I might be renting here for the rest of my life."
Small spaces in dense neighborhoods
Smaller, more expensive units have become commonplace in the densest neighborhoods. The average monthly rent for all unit types on Capitol Hill — $1,395, according to an industry-analysis firm, Apartment Insights — buys about 500 square feet in some buildings.
Those who need a cheaper place to stay in the city can look for in-law units, converted garages or shared housing situations that can be found on websites such as Craigslist. But even those can be expensive: One reader who responded to our online questionnaire said she was renting a converted garage of less than 400 square feet in Phinney for $1,000 a month.
Many have been bypassing those options for microhousing units, often called aPodments. Rent is around $600 for those quickly multiplying units, which come as small as 150 square feet.
Several Seattle neighborhoods have railed against the proliferation of aPodment developments, saying that, on top of using legal loopholes to bypass design-review laws and public-comment periods, they attract transient tenants who aren't invested in their community's long-term quality of life.
Andy Christnacht, who lives in a small, basement unit of the Alturra aPodments in Capitol Hill, thinks those complaints are overblown. The 21-year-old transfer student from Tacoma moved into his unit because he was accepted at the UW too late to find an affordable place to live near campus.
"Yeah, a lot of them are between jobs, maybe between wives. Others work at cupcake shops here," said Christnacht. "One even left some extra cupcakes on the step here for us."
For a floormate of Christnacht's who has an entry-level job at Amazon, living in an aPodment near work has been a good choice professionally and financially. At this point, he said, he's more interested in getting ahead at work than hosting a party for friends at home.
"It would be nice to get my student loans out of the way as soon as possible so I can start my life sooner than later," said Christnacht's neighbor, who didn't want his name to be published. Within the next year, he's hoping for a big enough raise to move out of Alturra.
Suburbs not much cheaper
Even a move out to South King County, the Eastside, Kitsap or Snohomish County isn't quite the escape from high costs of living that it used to be.
Since last summer, Zillow reports that rents have climbed 7.5 percent in Kirkland to a median of $1,958 per month, 5.8 percent in Lynnwood to a median of $1,607, and 4.7 percent in Everett to a median of $1,431.
The lease on Stephanie Scott's one-bedroom apartment in Kent isn't up until January, but the 41-year-old says she's anticipating a rent increase of more than $100 when it ends, to more than $1,000 a month. She says almost all of her neighbors with leases that ended this year have left the complex because of rising rent. The management confirmed to her that she could anticipate an increase, but she hasn't been told how big it will be.
"I don't know where they moved to, but they're all gone," Scott said of her former neighbors.
Then there's the cost and inconvenience of commuting: If you take public transit, the chances that a route runs near your home are lower when you live in the suburbs. And, as King County Metro considers service cuts, those chances aren't improving. With any luck, transit fares won't continue to climb as much as they did between 2008 and 2011 — 80 percent.
The King County Metro commuter calculator (http://1.usa.gov/3uEa1X) estimates that the minimum monthly cost of one person commuting to Seattle from Woodinville would be $239, $287 from Federal Way, and $334 from Everett.
To cut down on the frustrations and $240-300 cost of driving alone, Scott started a King County Metro van pool for an early commute between Kent and Seattle's Greater Duwamish area. Her employer, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, completely subsidizes it.
She says the idea of sticking around in an unstable rental market exhausts her, so she wants the next lease in Kent to be her last. She's planning on buying a house, even if she can only afford one out in Pierce County.
"I don't want to move and incur expenses on another deposit," Scott said. "It might be a longer commute, but I guess it just depends on where I can find a place."

Better Together provides a space to share experiences with – and strategies for engaging – three critical global issues that PC(USA) global partners are challenging us to address together as the body of Christ. These three issues are 1) addressing root causes of poverty, especially as it impacts women and children; 2) sharing the Good News of God's love in Jesus Christ; and 3) working for reconciliation in cultures of violence, including our own. The purpose of Better Together is to feed a conversation to shape concrete action strategies at the October 2012 "Dallas II: Better Together" consultation and beyond.

"My great-great-grandfather was on the Council of Elders in his village, and when they saw the missionaries coming, they said, 'Those people do not look like us. They are ghosts. We should kill them!'"
Standing before a gathered group of Presbyterians and global partners, brought together by the common desire to discuss not just mission but the ability to do so more effectively, Cyprian Guchiendo tells of the historic roots of the Church in Kenya. Long before the Presbyterian Church of East Africa existed, there were two Christian groups there to do mission - The GMS (Gospel Missionary Society), and the ...

Nadya "Octomom" Suleman is taking a "do as I say and not as I do" approach to pets.
Outside of her La Habra home on Wednesday, the mother of 14 told a crowd of reporters and paparazzi that dogs and cats should be spayed or neutered.
"All my children have a loving home but the sad fact is … there are not nearly enough good home for the 8 million dogs and cats who enter animal shelters every year, half of whom must be euthanized due to lack of good homes," said Suleman, standing in front of a PETA banner.
And how did PETA convince the queen of in vitro to take a stand against animal overpopulation?
With a $5,000 check and some veggie burgers.
In addition to a statement to the media, Suleman has agreed to keep a PETA banner outside her home until June 9, the deadline when city officials say it must be removed, the Associated Press reported.
"It's really a win-win situation for everyone,'' PETA campaign coordinator Amanda Fortino told the AP.
Suleman has been facing foreclosure on her home; however, her lawyer has since negotiated an extension on a $450,000 mortgage payment that had been due in March.
Suleman, of Whittier, already had six children when she gave birth to octuplets on Jan. 26, 2009.

BALTIMORE – Stony Brook won its fourth game in a row and improved to 5-0 in America East play, as the Seawolves (13-6) defeated host UMBC (5-14, 1-5), 81-62, at the RAC Arena.
UMBC senior forward Chase Plummer (Plainfield, N.J./St. Patrick) led UMBC with 21 points and seven rebounds and became the 12th player in school history to reach the 1,200-point plateau. He was named the Retrievers' America East Player of the Game, while SBU senior guard Dave Coley earned the honor for the visitors. Coley led all scorers with 22 points, hitting 13-of-15 shots from the charity stripe.
The Retrievers played toe-to-toe with the Seawolves in the early stages and were within 17-15 after a Plummer trey at the 11:19 mark. But SBU sophomore guard Carson Puriefoy responded with a three-pointer of his own and that started the game's key surge. Stony Brook outscored UMBC, 14-0, over a three-minute span and took a 31-15 advantage on another Puriefoy trey with 7:06 to play in the stanza.
The Seawolves settled for a 43-30 halftime advantage, buoyed by doubling up UMBC on the glass (22-11) and in second-chance points (14-7).
SBU built the lead to as many as 25 points at 64-39 with 12:29 remaining, but the Retrievers did not fold. UMBC would nearly halve the deficit, as Plummer capped a 10-1 surge with a long-range trey and the Retrievers had some hope, trailing, 73-60, with 2:57 remaining.
The Retrievers' press bothered SBU in the second half and a steal by freshman guard Rodney Elliott (Baltimore, Md./John Carroll) 11 seconds later gave the home side a chance to climb even closer. But UMBC committed a turnover and Coley hit two free throws on the other end with 2:18 remaining to stem the rally.
Elliott managed 13 points for UMBC, scoring in double figures for the 11 th time in his last 12 outings. Freshman backcourt mate Bryan Harris (Oxon Hill, Md./Southern) was also in double figures with 10 points, but the rookie duo only converted a combined 6-of-20 shots from the floor.
Stony Brook sophomore post Jameel Warney posted a double-double, with 17 points and a game-high 11 caroms.
UMBC shot below 40 percent from the floor for the third consecutive game, hitting 20-of-53 shots. SBU cooled off in the second half, and finished at 46.2 percent (24-of-52). The Seawolves outrebounded UMBC, 41-27.
Plummer now has 1,220 points and needs nine more to move into 11th place on the school's all-time scoring list.
After playing six times in 16 days, UMBC has its first mini-break of the conference schedule. They will return to action on Saturday, Feb. 25, when they welcome Hartford to the RAC Arena for a 3:30 p.m. contest.

Cousin Campout Cinnamon Donuts:
vegetable or canola oil
plain refrigerated biscuit dough**1 cup sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
**(flaky layers and Grands will not work)
1. Pour about an inch and a half of oil into a pan and heat on medium heat.
2. Lay all the biscuits out and poke a hole in the middle of all of them. We use a pineapple corer. But I've also used the tops to medicine bottles, tops to giant markers, etc. Just make sure whatever you use won't contaminate your food!
3. Drop the holey biscuits into the hot oil in a single layer. You will know the oil is hot enough when it bubbles and sizzles when you place the dough in.
4. Cook the dough until it is golden brown underneath- usually about 2 minutes. Flip dough over to cook other side until it is also golden brown. Cook all the donuts holes at once- they only take about a minute.
5. Pull the dough out of the oil with tongs and drain on paper towels.
6. Fill a large plastic baggy with the sugar and cinnamon. Drop the dough into the bag and SHAKE coating the doughnuts evenly.
7. Enjoy!

Go Ahead Societies!
The answers is YES!
Here's my official policy:
If you want to show one of my webinar CDs to your membership, just shoot me an email and let me know the name of your society and when and what you'll be showing and I'll gladly say yes.
The fine print:
I would ask that if you share the handouts with the attendees at the meeting that you make only enough printed copies for those in attendance. Please do NOT share the handouts via email or the internet.
Other than that I hope you'll consider letting your members know about this blog (http://RootsandRambles.blogspot.com).
Thanks everyone for all the emails.I am so glad that you considered my webinars as a program for your society!
Here's a link to the full list of recorded webinars.

That is a wonderful practice, Marian. Good for you! ;-) Good conditions, too, by the way! ;-)ReplyDelete
Marian, my plan is to encourage our members to visit the local FHC where our book collection is stored, to view the webinar DVDs we have bought which I will announce during our 10-min tech tip in September. Yours is one of the DVDs we have purchased. However, when I was program chair, I always had a backup for that one occasion when the speaker might not show and that was done by having ready a VHS tape or CD of a lecture by a well-known genealogist. Thanks for giving us permission to use your webinar to show the group if this ever occurs (so far we have never had to come up with Plan B). We will comply with your request if we ever have to resort to Plan B and thank you for sharing.ReplyDelete

Everyone's doing it. So why not me. A lot of the gift lists I see are really bad. Here's a good list of stuff you can get for the motorcycle rider in your life. Maybe even me.
1. Something to make the buns more comfortable on long rides.
There are a lot of different varieties of things you can throw on a motorcycle seat to extend saddle time and delay monkey butt. Inflatable, gel-filled, lambskin. You can even get an entire new custom seat to try and crack this problem. I've tried a number of them, and the one I find works best is a simple wooden bead seat cover from Whitehorse Gear. The best thing about this particular seat cover is it is simple to install and will fit on just about every bike. For $25 it's affordable and the biker in your life will definitely appreciate it. Whitehorse Gear even throws in a free kickstand support with every purchase. I have the beaded cover for my V-Strom, but haven't picked up a second one yet for the Triumph America that I acquired in August.
2. Branded motorcycle gear.
Your biker will always appreciate something that helps them advertise the make of their bike, regardless of the brand they ride. For example, I practically have a lifetime supply of Triumph tee shirts, jackets, and sweat shirts. But the newly-opened online Triumph store has a nice selection of other Triumph-branded gear that my kids could get me if they weren't sure what I'd like for Christmas (hint, hint). Like the Triumph mug or pen or even this mouse pad.
In addition, even though I bought a Suzuki V-Strom at the beginning of the year, I don't have any Suzuki-branded merch, so that would be nice.
3. GoPro.
At $300 this is on the "pricey" end of the gift spectrum, but just about every biker wants one of these doohickeys. GoPro is based in Silly Con Valley, right down the road from Apple, so they know how to market and they know how to sell. Accordingly, they do a nice job of adding features and functionality every year, and about a month after I bought my first GoPro they were onto version 2 and now they've just announced version 3 (just in time for Christmas!!) So even if you're biker already has a GoPro, they need a new one because the old one is just so last month.
There are lots of accessories for the GoPro, too, so if you don't have $300 to drop there are a few that would be on any motorcyclist's wish list if they already have a GoPro, such as the tripod mount, the wall charger, the LCD backpack (I've always found it extremely frustrating that I can't see what I'm filming while I'm filming or even THAT I'm filming with the GoPro. This caused me to lose some of the best footage I ever thought I was getting on a ride this fall) and extra batteries (GoPros have notoriously low battery life – at least in my experience.)
4. Heated handgrips.
I don't have these on my bike. If I was to put heated handgrips on one of my bikes, it would be the V-Strom, which I ride most often and frequently in the early morning chill on my commute to work. There are a couple of aftermarket kits but the Oxford Grips seem to get good reviews from bikers and they're easy to install and under $100. They are available on a number of gear sites such as Twisted Throttle.
Another alternative along these lines would be the BarkBusters handguards. They don't heat the grips but they do protect the hands from the wind.
5. Cruise Control.
The Kaoko throttle lock system is a nice cost-effective aftermarket upgrade to just about any bike.
6. A six-pack from the "sure I can dream" category.
- A new bike. If I had my druthers, a 2013 Triumph Street Triple R is the one I'd like to add to my stable.
- A new used bike. It doesn't even have to be new, a good quality used bike will float their boat just as well. There is a beautiful Bandit 1250 with low miles available at a dealership near me. If you want your biker to love you forever, get him (or her) a new bike.
- A full complement of Gerbings heated gear. Heated gear will extend the riding season by a month in either direction, and it will come in handy on really long tours. The whole enchilada of Gerbings will set you back about a grand.
- Icon 1000 Elsinore boots. I think these are some of the coolest looking motorcycle boots out there. I'd like a pair in each color, please. Size 10.5.
- A leather track suit. Budget about a grand for these. I did my first track day last summer, and would like to do more. And since you're getting me a trackable bike in 1 or 2 above, I'm going to need this. I'm a size 46.
- Manayunk Triumph. If I could have any job in the world, it would be owner of this dealership. So since this is from the 'dream' category in an alternate universe where my significant other is a millionaire (heck, billionaire) sugar momma, I might as well think big and put this on the list.
OK so this started out with the intention to make a really useful and helpful list of things that my readers (or their significant others) could put on their Christmas shopping list, and ended up getting rather silly with me crossing one of the biggest items off my bucket list (to work in the motorcycle industry and perhaps own a dealership.) But hey, this is the season for dreaming, so deal with it!
Happy holidays to all.

* 1. Introduction *
Welcome to my walkthrough for the infamous level "Palantir of Sauron" (PoS)
from "Lord of the Rings : The Return of the King" to the Xbox. There seem to
be differences compared with versions to other platforms, but I could really
not tell as I have not played them.
As for many other games, I wanted to complete the game and get 100% before I
put it aside. While some of the normal levels are quite challenging, the PoS
take it one step further. You can no longer rely on just sweeping away with
monotonous attacks or good will/luck. You will need a good plan to stand a
chance. When searching the net for assistance, I was disappointed at the
result. The strategies I found worked very poorly for me or consisted of tips
like "use cheats to make it easier". Anyways, I came up with a few good
strategies during my attemps that will most certainly work for a casual
player. The strategies do not involve cheat codes.
Since this is a walkthrough for the final level, it does not go into detail
about the story, basic gameplay, controls and such stuff. You will find
plenty of that in other guides on gamefaqs. This guide assumes you use
Gandalf (good luck if you plan to use someone else...).
* 2. Version History *
1.0 (2008-10-07) :
The original version
* 3. Preparations *
Before you accept the challenge, there are three things you need to look into.
First of all, you need to complete the normal levels (Crack of Doom is the
last normal level) and have Gandalf, Sam and Aragorn/Gimli/Legolas at least
at level 10. I must say that I'm not completely sure that no other
combinations work, but you need at least to reach level 10 with one character
from each path and complete all normal levels in order to open up PoS. If you
want to complete the game to 100%, you must also get through Palantir of
Saruman, but that one is not that hard.
Second of all, you need to decide with which character you will challenge PoS.
This walkthrough assumes you choose Gandalf. There are several reasons for
this choice. All characters have crappy special abilites except Gandalf.
Getting you into perfect mode (Aragorn, ...) is of little use in PoS.
Gandalf's energy shield is extremely powerful though and can destroy shields
and armours. Also, Gandalf's projectiles are very powerful and do not stop
upon impact making multiple hits possible. They are quick to fire and are
extremely effective against trolls. Gandalf's charged fierce attack is also
better than the others, but is unlikely to be used here because it consumes
10 projectiles every time and takes too long to charge.
Third of all, it's adviceable to take Gandalf to level 20. I haven't really
noticed a big difference from level 10, but it can hardly do any bad either
and it's quite fast anyway. If you by chance happen to miss some of the
upgrades, you'll get more than enough now to buy everything. Anyways, the
easiest way I found to level up is to redo the level "The Southern Gate" a
couple of times. There are hordes of normal enemies (no shielded or shooting
foes) so it's easy to get into perfect by just whacking away whenever there
is a group of enemies and score good points. You'll advance at least two
levels every time you redo the level.
* 4. General tips *
Here are the most important strategies for dispatching the different types
of enemies :
- Against unshielded enemies, just whack away.
- Against shooting enemies, move, shoot once or twice, parry, move back, shoot
once or twice, parry and so on. Try to keep your distance as much as possible.
Don't try to kill them with your sword. They will back off while filling you
with arrows, making it hard to get into striking range.
- Against shielded enemies, let yourself get trapped against the border and
parry like crazy. Everytime you parry, you can use a bane (parry+R) on the
attacker. It's easy to do, elegant and gives you an instant kill ! Don't
complicate things by trying to smash the shields unnecessarily. It will only
result in you getting hurt.
- Against champions, just whack away (Uruk-hai) or parry and do a fierce
attack (Easterlings) kind of like doing a bane (which does not work here).
- Against trolls, use projectiles ! Gandalf's staff must have some special
anti-troll recipe, because they go down very quickly.
- Against combinations of strong enemies, use Gandalf's magic shield (L+R).
At the waves where it's useful, you most certainly don't have the time to
wait for Gandalf to summon the shield before you get torn to pieces. The
trick is to launch the shield at the end of the previous wave ! When the last
enemy goes down, there is about five seconds until the animation for the next
wave begins, slowly count to four and then trigger the shield. Gandalf will
use the time of the animation to get the shield up. When you take control
again, just run around like crazy and create havoc as long as it lasts.
- If you have difficulties reaching the later waves, but want to practice
them anyway, use the cheat codes. Don't settle for only completing with cheat
codes though. You made it this far, so I'm sure you can take the last step as
* 5. Walkthrough *
Ok, so you unlocked PoS, levelled up Gandalf and hopefully chosen him for this
last task. The level is based on the same idea as Palantir of Saruman. You're
locked into an arena and have to make it through 20 waves of increasingly
difficult hordes of enemies. The waves are sort of grouped in themes of 2 or
3 waves :
Wave 1-3 : Unshielded enemies
Wave 4-6 : Archers
Wave 7-9 : Shielded enemies
Wave 10-11 : Unshielded enemies and archers
Wave 12-13 : Shielded enemies and archers
Wave 14-15 : Unshielded and shielded enemies and archers
Wave 16-17 : Champions
Wave 18-19 : Champions and troll
Wave 20 : Champions, trolls and archers
After each wave you get a red potion (health). On wave 5 you get two weapon
pick-ups (worth 20 projectiles each) and one more on wave 20. These upgrades
stay there as long as you don't pick them up. In the waves with archers, you
can gain more projectiles, but they will disappear if you don't pick them up
before the end of the wave. The same goes for the red potions dropped by
champions in the later waves (one potion for each champion).
Wave 1
Enemies : Orcs (unshielded)
Strategy : Just whack away with speed attacks.
Wave 2
Enemies : Easterlings (unshielded)
Strategy : Same as wave 1.
Wave 3
Enemies : Orcs (unshielded) and Easterlings (unshielded)
Strategy : Same as wave 1 and 2. (enjoy it while it lasts, you wont have the
chance to carelessly whack away until wave 16 again)
Wave 4
Enemies : Orcs (archers)
Strategy : When it begins, immediately fire of one or two projectiles from
Gandalf's staff. Then start to parry (X-button) like crazy. You'll deflect the
incoming wave of arrows. Then move to the side, fire another projectile,
parry, move back to the other side, fire a projectile, parry and so on. By
taking out one or two enemies at a time and keeping the distance, you should
be able to get through without energy loss. When there are only a few archers
left, you can take them down with your sword if you want to save shots.
However, I strongly advice not to take them heads on from start with your
sword only. The archers back off as you approach while continuing sending
arrows your way. Since you can't run and parry at the same time, it's hard
to get into range without taking several hits.
Wave 5
Enemies : Uruk-hai (archers)
Strategy : Same as wave 4.
Wave 6
Enemies : Orcs (archers) and Uruk-hai (archers)
Strategy : By now, you'll likely start to run out of projectiles. Luckily,
there are two weapon refills here. It's good if you can get through only
picking up one of them. As for the strategy, do as in wave 4 and 5, only there
are more enemies now, so you don't have much time to fire of a shot before you
need to start parrying.
Wave 7
Enemies : Uruk-hai (shielded)
Strategy : Move to the side as much as possible (this will help you avoid
running into red potions unintentionally). When the first Uruk-hai is close,
stop and start parrying like a madman. Now, just use banes (parry+R) at one
enemy at a time until they're all gone ! Again, you'll get through without
taking any damage. When one or two enemies remain, you can go over to break
their shields and then speed attack them. The ones who suggest to break the
shields from start must be crazy though.
Wave 8
Enemies : Easterlings (shielded)
Strategy : Same as wave 7. Just be careful when the enemies attack you. If
you try to initiate a bane and the enemy's attack wasn't parryied, you risk
getting hit. This risk is much higher with Easterlings than with Uruk-hais,
because many attacks don't connect. I usually look for a charging Easterling.
That attack always comes on your left side and it's an attack that always
connect. Thus it's easy to turn it into a bane.
Wave 9
Enemies : Uruk-hai (shielded) and Easterlings (shielded)
Strategy : Same as wave 7 and 8.
Wave 10
Enemies : Orcs (unshielded) and Uruk-hai (archers)
Strategy : Now it starts to get a little bit complicated. The orcs will get
massively hit by their Uruk-hai colleagues, but it will only stop them
momentarily, not cause any damage. This can partly be exploited to your
advantage though. Hide behind a horde of orcs and they will take the wave of
arrows. Then try to hit some of the orcs, hide/parry the next wave of
arrows, hit some more orcs and so on. When all orcs are down, use the
strategy from wave 4 to 6. I don't think it's worth to try to take out the
archers first as that will for sure result in massive damage for our hero.
Wave 11
Enemies : Easterlings (unshielded) and Orcs (archers)
Strategy : There are only a few archers and they are all standing right in
front of you in the middle. I suggest trying to shoot one archer when it
begins, then run to the opposite side of the arena along the border. You
should be able to reach there without being intercepted. The archers will
then have difficulties finding clear shots at you and you can easily dispose
of the Easterlings with normal speed attacks. Take out the archers when there
are no more Easterlings left.
Wave 12
Enemies : Uruk-hai (shielded and archers)
Strategy : The best plan I found is probably to quickly fire two shots and
then get trapped in a corner, far from the archers (the starting position is
actually pretty good). Take out the shielded Uruk-hais one by one with banes.
When they are all gone, take care of the archers. You can also start the wave
with a magic shield (see the tips section above) and try to take out the
archers in front of you. Be careful not to run too far, as you don't want to
loose the shield in the middle of the arena.
Wave 13
Enemies : Easterlings (shielded) and Orcs (archers)
Strategy : I suggest arriving with the magic shield here (see tips section
above), run to the other end and take out as many archers as possible. There
will no doubt be some left, so fight your way through if you're close to some
remaining archer. Leave the rest. The reason for this is that the Easterlings
connect so seldom so it will be hard to find the right moment to do a bane.
It's hard to hear when you parry as the sound is just as likely to come from a
parryied arrow if there are many archers left. If you miss a bane (press R
without having parryied), you'll likely to get hit. Have patience and wait for
a charge attack (see wave 8) before doing the banes.
Wave 14
Enemies : Easterlings (unshielded), Uruk-hai (shielded) and
Orcs (archers)
Strategy : Same as wave 12.
Wave 15
Enemies : Orcs (unshielded and archers) and Easterlings (shielded)
Strategy : I definately recommend arriving with a magic shield here (see tips
section above). Your magic meter (or whatever it's called) should have been
refilled since wave 13, so it should be no problem launching it. Then it's
much like wave 13, just harder. Use the same strategy. Hopefully, you have
received some weapon drop on the last waves, so you arrive with 30 projectiles
for the toughest part that is to come...
Wave 16
Enemies : Uruk-hai (champions)
Strategy : Easy, just whack away. The Uruk-hai champioins are not protected so
just use speed attacks. Don't stop mashing the button though as you'll soon
get hit. Since you get a red potion for each slain enemy, you should leave
this wave with full energy.
Wave 17
Enemies : Easterlings (champions)
Strategy : Much harder than the Uruk-hai, because the Easterling champions
are armoured (you need to break the armour with a fierce attack or projectile
before speed attacks affect them). Arrive with the magic shield on and try
to break as many armours you can while it lasts. When you loose the shield,
start speed attacking those who lost their armour. When you are about to hit
a combination (preferably swift justice), try to hit one of the armoured guys.
This will break his armour without exposing you to the same kind of risk as
the fierce attack exposes you to. If you get surrounded by only armoured
enemies, try parry+fierce attack (risky, because the others can hit you at
the same time) or simply use the speed attack while trying to move (you need
to keep jamming the button though). You will block their attacks (provided you
don't get someone in the back) and will eventually break free. Then try to
find an enemy without armour and go loose with speed attacks while trying to
break other armours in the vicinity. When you have only one enemy left, wait
for the magic meter to refill, so you can launch a magic shield in time for
the next wave.
Wave 18
Enemies : Uruk-hai (champions), Easterlings (champions) and Troll
Strategy : Immediately run towards the troll and fire of a few shots so it's
dead before the shield wears off. It's very annoying to have the troll
roaming around, so I seriously suggest you stick to this plan. The remaining
enemies are actually easier than the previous wave as you'll have more
unarmoured enemies to increase your chances of getting some powerful
combination (again, swift justice is your friend). Like in the last wave, be
sure to wait for the magic meter to refill and launch a magic shield in time
for the next wave.
Wave 19
Enemies : Uruk-hai (champions), Easterlings (champions) and Troll
Strategy : Exactly like wave 18, just harder. Use more of your shots when
protected by the shield as it causes good damage and can break the armour.
Needless to say that you should wait to kill the last enemy until you can
launch a magic shield for the last wave.
Wave 20
Enemies : Uruk-hai (champions), Easterlings (champions), Trolls (2)
and Orcs (archers)
Strategy : I really, really hope you timed the shield right at the end of the
last wave, so you can get off to a good start on the last wave. First take
down the trolls. Then concentrate on the archers. Shoot like a maniac as
long as you're protected by the shield. You get a weapon drop here, so there
should be plenty of projectiles to distribute. When the effect of the magic
shield has worn off, you're on your own... Hopefully, you made sure some of
the archers followed in the footsteps of the trolls. If not, well, parry and
then try to move to get some clean shots. This can be easier said than done
though, so make sure the time you're protected by the shield is well spent.
When the archers are down or can't shoot at you because of the center pillar,
dispatch of the champions like in previous waves.

Bicycle Man is what I am
I just filled out an application for a race and it asked for 'the highest age I would reach in 2008'. The answer for me is: 30. I'm not one of those people who is making a big deal about being 30, but I do recognize it as some sort of marker in my life. When I think about being thirty I get that feeling that you get when you wake up in your tent somewhere far from home and just can't believe that you are where you are. Like getting there and being there is some sort of secret that you discovered. Like you've somehow fooled the world by getting away with what you are doing. Which reminds me, it has been awhile since I've spent some time in a tent or bivy sac.

Kristen Stewart is moving out of the house she had shared with Robert Pattinson in the wake of her cheating scandal, a source told People magazine.
According to People, Pattinson asked his "Twilight" costar-turned-girlfriend Stewart to move, after their three-year relationship was rocked by the revelation that Stewart had had an affair with her 41-year-old "Snow White and the Huntsman" director, who is married with children.
People published a photograph of a U-Haul truck outside the home Saturday, presumably helping Kristen move.
The dust has slowly been settling in the scandal. People reported last week that the couple wasn't speaking and were estranged, after photographs surfaced that helped reveal the 22-year-old actress' affair with "Snow White" director Rupert Sanders.
Stewart followed up the revelation of her cheating with a public apology to her erstwhile boyfriend.
"I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry," she said in a statement.
Sanders issued an apology, too, saying he was "utterly distraught" by having hurt his family.

If you want to give your child the best in life, start with the David Dolphin Worksheets for Preschool.
As a parent of a preschooler, you want to equip them with the tools they'll need to achieve their dreams. Right now, that means keeping them healthy, giving them a solid foundation of morals and values and helping them to learn.

Ask yourself these questions:
Do you want your child to cope well at kindergarten?
Do you want them to feel confident and capable at school?
Or do you want them to be anxious, stressed out and isolated

"Free play is almost a child-development mantra in pre-kindergarten programs, in which toddlers are allowed to choose among rich educational toys and play in their own way. But new research suggests that children in such programs show fewer gains in reading and math skills than those provided with some sort of teacher instruction."

You may be asking "Why should I buy these when I can download free math lessons elsewhere?"
Like many parents, you've probably searched the web for mathematic worksheets for your child. You'll find them, but you will also find that:
There is no systematic step by step system to the lessons you download for free.
The David Dolphin Mathematics Worksheets teaches your child step by step, learning basic concepts first and progressing from there. Very easy for the parent or teacher to implement the correct procedure from the beginning.
You have to click through several pages before you get to the worksheet you want, and then download each page one at a time.
At David Dolphin, we know that parents are strapped for time – you download the worksheets for preschool ONCE, and they're on your PC forever – no time-consuming searches and click-throughs. And you'll have enough mathematics activities to last your child from age 3 to 6 years old.
There are over 95 kids math lessons in the series.
After all that time, the worksheet has one letter or number on each page, so you've got to repeat the click-throughs and downloads over and over.
Each David Dolphin Worksheet covers a lot more activities per page than we have seen anywhere else. The pages are packed with variation and stimulating exercises.
The free worksheets can be very repetitive – and your child gets bored.
Although repetition is a great way to learn, the David Dolphin Lessons present the same learning concepts in a variety of different ways to prevent boredom and promote deeper understanding.
If your child wants to do the same worksheet again a few days later, you've got to find it on the web again!
Because the entire David Dolphin Workbook is on your PC, you just have to reprint the specific page.

- What the toxin is.
- What form it's in.
- Its concentration.
- The dose.
- The time before it's removed.
Sometimes, the body won't react right away, and there's no sign of injury. Don't be lulled into a false sense of security just because the effects aren't immediate. Mercury, for example, accumulates in fat and keeps doing damage. In particular, it causes neurons to shrink (bringing on dementia).
How can you protect yourself? Learn about the toxins you might encounter, follow the recommended procedures, and wear the recommended PPE. If you suspect exposure, seek medical evaluation immediately.
