Introduction to Blankaex
If you've read up to here, I applaud you and encourage you to continue.
Hello and welcome to Blankaex's first Mobafire guide on Ezreal! Before we get into the nitty gritty, a bit about myself and why I'm qualified to teach Ezreal.
Actually, I'm not. I main mid lane, and only play Ezreal every once in a while. I'm in Bronze II right now, and have never played a ranked game with Ezreal. So why does someone like me want to write about Ezreal? Well...
When two people love each other very, very muc-
The reason I started actively playing League in general, is Ezreal. Being a pretty dedicated anime fan, I couldn't help but notice Ezreal's dance and how much it appealed to me. From the moment I saw that YouTube clip, I decided that I would play League, that I would earn the arrangement of pixels on my screen that is Ezreal and that I would bask in the glory of his dance.
Introduction to Ezreal
Before we start talking Ezreal, we need to understand what his role in the team is, and how not just Ezreal, but any ADC should be played.
The Role of the AD Carry
Primary objectives:
- Deal damage
- Stay alive to deal damage
- Get kills
- Focus the squishies
- Trying to "make plays"
- Trying to "get kills because I'm ADC"
Ezreal in particular is excellent at fulfilling the role of the ADC, and he's extremely underrated. His kit allows for amazing utility while still dishing out damage on par with other ADCs like Caitlyn or Varus.
His Rising Spell Force grants him free AS, whereas other champions would have to otherwise purchase items for this bonus. Mystic Shot and Essence Flux serve as harass tools in lane, as well as long-ranged damage output. Arcane Shift is a gimmicky spell that gives Ezreal an escape and gap closer, in addition to Flash - something that not many ADCs have at their disposal. Finally his ultimate, Trueshot Barrage is a high-damage, global nuke spell, giving him huge map presence and teamfight power.
Bearing these facts in mind, let's move on to how I play Ezreal, and why I build and play him in such an unorthodox manner.
Runes & Masteries
Greater Quintessence of Life Steal
Greater Mark of Critical Chance
Greater Mark of Attack Damage
Greater Seal of Armor
Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist
I take Life Steal Quintessences because the additional sustain is invaluable when starting without potions. It also allows me to build my core faster since I won't need to build any Life Steal early on, and get off better in trades.
Attack Damage Marks are standard, and I use 1 Critical Chance Mark, which has been surprisingly effective. The random, unexpected crit has helped me numerous times when last hitting & trading with the other ADC. It goes without saying that 9 Attack Damage Marks works too.
Armour Seals are also standard. They're the best option to put in the Seal slot, since they allow you to tank not only the other ADC's harass more effectively, but also minion damage, which is an often overlooked factor, despite its overwhelming power in the early game.
I use Scaling MR Glyphs as opposed to Flat MR,1 following the mindset that you shouldn't be taking much magic damage early game. Sure you might be against a Sona that happens to be trigger happy with her Hymn of Valor, but the damage you take from the AP Carry outside of lane is much more deadly, and that's what you should be trying to protect yourself from. At level 18, they give you nearly 25 MR, whereas a Null-Magic Mantle grants only 20. This effectively converts to 400+ free gold by level 18.
21 points in one tree is overrated. Executioner and Havoc are not as great as they might seem to be. Suppose you'd hit 100 with an auto attack - Havoc would change that to 102. The bonus is so insufferably insignificant that the points would be better distributed elsewhere.
Following this logic, we take the main offensive masteries like Weapon Expertise , Lethality and Sunder in the offense tree, since these stats are hard to come by. Destruction is also good simply because it takes less random hits to destroy the enemy turret, and also helps when pushing with a time limit (enemy coming soon, tank about to die, etc.)
Instead of going for the defense tree with the extra points, I prefer to go down the utility tree. The low-tier masteries in the defense tree are lackluster in comparison to 3% life steal, reduced cooldown on your Flash and Improved Recall .
Skill Sequence & Summoner Spells
I go for a maxed Arcane Shift first on Ezreal unlike most people for multiple reasons.
- It lowers the cooldown so that it's more likely to be up when you need it to escape or engage.
- As an ADC, your auto attacks are your main damage tool, and therefore you should use those to harass, fight & trade. Mystic Shot doesn't crit.
- The base damage on Arcane Shift is ridiculously high - on par with your auto attacks at low levels, even. This can turn the tides of a trade more reliably than a weak, easy to miss Mystic Shot.
I max Mystic Shot second simply because Essence Flux doesn't scale off AD, and take Trueshot Barrage whenever I can since, well, it's my ulti.
Summoner Spells
|Flash is one of, if not the most versatile spell in the game, and it compliments Ezreal's kit perfectly. The distance he can cover with an Arcane Shift+ Flash combo is often underestimated, but it's great for getting out of sticky situations and catching up to that pesky Kassadin.
|Barrier is the 2nd standard go-to spell for an ADC in blind pick. It helps you soak up a lot of damage while fighting or retreating and is generally useful overall.
Alternative Spell Pairings
|If you're feeling confident in yourself, or you have someone like Thresh with you in lane, taking Ignite instead of Flash is a viable option since your Arcane Shift makes up for it.
|Bringing Ignite helps you secure kills, but if you're going to bring this pair of spells, you'll need to play carefully lest you get caught without your Arcane Shift. If it's not obvious already, this set of spells is for an aggressive lane.
|Cleanse is also a viable pick if you're playing draft pick. I usually wouldn't take Cleanse in blind pick since there's a chance it would be all but useless, whereas Barrier would always have a use.
|If you're in draft pick and you see the enemy has a Blitzcrank, you know you want Cleanse. It's simply a situational matter, but Barrier is a more solid pick if you're in blind.
Items: Justification & Reasoning
|Starting Doran's Blade is standard for ADC now. The extra health helps you soak up more damage and the passive along with your
and Life Steal quints gives you crazy sustain.
If you're against a heavy poke opposition and you don't have a support with a heal, starting with a Cloth Armor and 5 Health Potions is also acceptable. Even though Boots of Speed allows 4 Health Potions, the 15 armour is much more valuable than movement speed in the early lane.
|This is the most underrated item in the game. You heard it here first. The base AD is huge, and the passive is amazing. Your girly auto attacks that hit less than 100 suddenly turn into 500 damage crits the second you get this item. Get it. First. Always.
Infinity Edge is a core item on EVERY ADC, and yet I see all these
|A cheaper Phantom Dancer alternative, and the passive gives Ezreal the AoE to clear waves that he doesn't have. Also the fact that it builds out of Avarice Blade means you get a bit more bang for your buck. AS, more Crits, AoE - what's there not to love?
|This item is probably the one that raises the most eyebrows. It's not even an ADC item! It gives AP and Armour, and no AD! Don't fret, this is still an ADC Ezreal build, not a Hybrid. You know how most people take boots, 4 damage items and 1 defense item? This is the defense item. I have many reasons for taking Zhonya's Hourglass as my defensive item instead of something like Frozen Mallet, Mercurial Scimitar or Guardian Angel.
|I'm pretty sure this item gives the most AD in the game, and it also gives life steal, which is a valuable stat on ADCs. Due to the runes, masteries and Doran's Blade, we could live without the Vampiric Scepter for a while, but by 5th item, this is a good pick.
The Bloodthirster is a snowball item. It is not a core item. I cannot stress this enough, and it depresses me when I see an ADC go 0/4 in lane and still grab The Bloodthirster first. By the late game, though, it's a great pick for a chunk more AD and life steal.
|Ezreal has relatively low cooldowns for an ADC, specifically his Mystic Shot and Essence Flux, as well as Mystic Shot applying on-hit effects. Throwing those out every so-often in a fight for Sheen procs is a great way to increase your damage output, and that leaves us to decide what we actually want for that Sheen proc. There are currently three items that build out of Sheen. We can rule Lich Bane out at the start, but what about the other two?
|Iceborn Gauntlet is gaining more and more popularity with Ezreal players recently, and I can see why. Armour, CDR and amazing kiting potential. It's an overall good item, but it lacks one important thing: AD, which is why I see it as more of a defensive item. Trinity Force may seem like something old from Season 2, but it's still very strong. It gives AD, more crits, the same amount of AP as Iceborn Gauntlet and a bunch of other useful stats. I would usually go for the Trinity Force, simply because it's a damage item.
Items: Bluezreal and AP Ezreal
This is a little subsection on other popular Ezreal builds - Blue Ezreal and AP Ezreal. It's almost completely irrelevant to ADC Ezreal, so you won't miss any important information if you're only looking for that. However if you're curious about why I don't play Blue Ezreal ADC, read on.
My Blue Ezreal Build Order
> + + + > > > > >
Getting Tear of the Goddess early is quintessential to stack it up and have it ready for Muramana as quickly as possible. I also take Vampiric Scepter and Spirit Stone because Blue Ezreal is overwhelmingly weak in the early game, so he needs these to keep his farm up to par. Iceborn Gauntlet is the core item, so naturally we get that next. Not the Spirit of the Elder Lizard - that boosts damage, and is not core. Afterwards we finish off The Bloodthirster and assuming you're doing well enough, your Tear of the Goddess should be fully stacked and ready to turn into Muramana. As the name implies, Last Whisper is the last item since this is the point when the enemies would have the most armour.
My Thoughts on Bluezreal
Blue Ezreal is a popular build originating from Korea, and named after the majority of his items being the colour blue. Since the League community comprises 95% sheep, we've been seeing a lot of Ezreal players build like this over the past several weeks. They just look at the 6 items and build them however they please, without actually thinking about what goes where and why the professional players actually use this build. With my face resting on my palm, I decided to look at the build in depth and test it in about 10 or so games, mixing and matching items to find the best build order, and I ended up with what I have up there.
Now that that's all said and done, why Blue Ezreal?
- The build is cheaper than a standard ADC build, letting you get 6 items faster.
- High cooldowns = more readily available Arcane Shift.
- Readily available Arcane Shift + Iceborn Gauntlet = kiting all day.
- All the on-hits = poke and harass.
And what do I think about Blue Ezreal?
Blue Ezreal is subpar compared to a regular ADC build, and even more below my own build, if I do say so myself. His damage output is miniscule by the late game and he simply can't keep up. He can stay alive a tiny bit better and throw out slightly more annoying Mystic Shots, but that's about it. He doesn't properly fulfill the role of the AD Carry, and so he is only suitable in some situations. The only time that you would play him is If you have another source of high, sustained damage like a Vayne top or Ryze mid, as well as a poke-heavy team.
Otherwise, play Blue Ezreal as an AD Caster in mid lane and let your team have a proper ADC. It's an unexpected pick and is strong as a mid laner - I'm not going to deny that. Playing it as ADC has too many drawbacks for the team, but it works fine as a mid laner, and that's where I play him.
My AP Ezreal Build Order
+ x2 >Kage's Lucky Pick+ > > > > > > sell >
Now that you can start Doran's Ring with space for potions, there isn't really a reason not to. I grab Kage's lucky pick first because I'm going for Rabadon's Deathcap early, and the price for such a big item is relatively high. Kage's lucky pick helps close the gap to getting the Needlessly Large Rod quickly so that you're not behind in damage with 1400 gold in your pocket. kage's lucky pick also builds into Twin Shadows, which is great for you to check for ganks and slow down your lane opponent to land Essence Flux and Trueshot Barrage when going for a kill.
Lich Bane is another core item on AP Ezreal due to Mystic Shot's ability to proc on-hits, and the fact that it gives a hefty chunk of AP. I get a Void Staff at this point regardless of how much MR the opponent has because it will always beef up your damage, a lot. And when the enemy notices that, they'll be reluctant to build MR because 35% of it would be useless! I wrap it up with Zhonya's Hourglass since it's great on AP Ezreal too - 120 AP and invincible mode! If the game really does go on long enough, it's okay to sell Twin Shadows for a Rylai's Crystal Scepter, making you tankier for the late game and making your spells slow.
My Thoughts on AP Ezreal
The current meta for AP Carries is high, sustainable damage or strong burst with survivability and CC. AP Ezreal is a short skirmish/small burst AP caster and simply doesn't fit the bill anymore. That's not to say he isn't playable anymore - he still has great potential.
I wouldn't recommend AP Ezreal for high ELO ranked or serious games, but he still works as an unexpected pick and he plays well against Mid Laners that don't handle poke well. The decay on his Trueshot Barrage is waaaay too much for him to be a high-tier mid laner, though. Both have strengths and weaknesses, but overall, Blue Ezreal may be a stronger pick for mid.
Playing Ezreal: How to do it - In Lane
When Ezreal (person) designed Ezreal (champion), he was made to be able to be played as either an AP or AD carry. As such, his kit doesn't reflect the giantesque damage output that Vayne or Draven have. To put it bluntly, you are probably weaker than the other ADC, but, you also have more utility. What this means is that you can't out-damage the other ADC, but you can out-play them. Bear this in mind in lane, understand it and abuse it.
I play Ezreal in lane very passively, and only auto-attack the minions for the last hit, and take the time it gives to harass the enemy champions with my auto-attacks when I have the freedom to. Don't rush to clear waves and let the enemy push, as this gives your jungler great opportunities to gank, and Ezreal is great at receiving ganks due to his amazing follow-up. The mindset to play by here is: "don't try to win - try to not lose", because in the end, if you didn't lose, chances are you've won.
The main idea is just to get more money than the other ADC. Kills are overrated, and farm is underrated. Assuming minions give 20 gold each, 15 CS is equivalent to 300 gold - 1 kill. If your enemy ADC is 2/0/0 and you're 1/1/0 with 30 more CS, you're still effectively ahead. So:
- Focus on farming
- Don't take big risks & make mistakes
- Take advantage of the enemy's mistakes
Playing Ezreal: How to do it - Teamfights
As previously mentioned, the primary role of the ADC is to deal damage. Everything else is secondary or tertiary. In order to output tons of damage, you also need to stay alive. In order to do that: positioning, positioning, positioning.
Ezreal is one of the easiest ADCs to get good positioning with due to his Arcane Shift. In layman's terms, positioning is just where you are. As a simple rule of thumb, always think the following while playing and you should do fine: "Will I die if I stand here?"
As an AD Carry, your job in team fights is:
- To deal damage
- To aim the fed guy
- To aim the squishies
- To aim the other ADC
- To aim anything
- To tank
- To dive
- To initate
- To do anything but attack something
To elaborate, the AD Carry has the highest sustained damage of his/her team. Therefore, you are a priority target for the enemy team. In team fights, figure out where it's safe to stand - understand the enemies' zone, and stay out of it. Stay out of Darius' Apprehend range and Taric's Dazzle range and you're good to go.
Once you're standing somewhere you feel is safe - and only then - start attacking someone. Don't rush to jump into the fight - let your tanks tank. They do this to give you time to position and start fighting. When you start attacking, don't try to focus priority targets. Leave that job to your assassins and bruisers. Just attack whoever you can from safety, even if it's Shen or Malphite. They may be tank, but if they're dead, they aren't going to be tanking anything.
Naturally, if there are multiple targets in your zone, it would be advisable to attack a higher priority target, but don't risk yourself and to try to kill the Cassiopeia if that gives Talon a chance to gib you. Just keep peeling the Nasus until the enemy formation changes and you can attack other targets safely.
As for the whole attacking thing, that's just it. Attack. Auto-attack. Don't spam your abilities everywhere, they don't crit, auto attacks hit more. Use your Trueshot Barrage at the start of the fight to build up Rising Spell Force stacks, and try to hit as many people as you can. And attack. If the fight lasts long enough, you might want to use your Mystic Shot to keep your stacks up, but generally it should stay up when you use Arcane Shift to reposition.
Quick recap: find a good spot and right-click the closest person.
Tips & Tricks
- Don't go in with Arcane Shift unless:
1. You are sure you won't need it to escape, or
2. You have Flash and are confident you can use it in time and it will save you.
- Use Trueshot Barrage at the start of the fight to instantly gain 5 stacks of Rising Spell Force.
- Get used to smart casting (Shift+Q/W/E/R). It helps you pull off combos like a quick EQW to burst down a low HP champion running away.
- Don't change your key bindings to smart cast, though. Sometimes you might want to regular cast and you can't change those in the middle of a fight. It also messes with your other champions.
- I cannot stress this enough: your auto attacks hit more than your Mystic Shot. Keep calm, don't button mash and use your auto attacks. Unless you're blue - in that case, welcome to New Zealand!
- When behind, split push. Go find an empty lane and push it - it's a great way to farm up, and when you rejoin your team later, your score will be the same but you'll have a bunch more items which means a bunch more damage!
- Janna is arguably the best support with Ezreal and my personal favourite. Their unique traits compliment each other perfectly.
- Try not to get carried away. Just because you're winning doesn't mean you've won. Stay true to the play style until the very end and don't let the enemy make a comeback.
- Don't be a ****. Following my guide may have won you the game, but maintain a gentleman's etiquette: "humble in victory, graceful in defeat". Taunting your enemies by talking **** or using your champion's laugh is frowned upon by educated players.

It was a spur of the moment idea late Saturday night, but we decided to grab tickets to the Hawks game for Sunday and made our second trip out to the United Center in five days. And, after a tough loss to the Blues the night before, the Hawks were out with a vengeance and stuck it to the Canucks 4-2.
We still had seats up in the 300 section this time (301 Sunday, 310 on Wednesday), but it was still a great view. Sunday's game we were at center ice, which was just like seeing it on TV but with all the live excitement and atmosphere.
We knew it was going to be a great season to be a Hawks fan this year, but I don't think either of had expected to be watching 2 of the first 3 home games at the UC instead of on television. Makes me kind of wish we had gone and gotten a 6-game pack or something like that. Might be something to check into.
Let's see if the guys can keep the turnaround going this Wednesday against the Oilers. Given that both baseball teams here in Chicago crapped out in the playoffs, we have the Bears and the Hawks to route for. And while the Hawks started slow, it's a long 82 game season and we have a lot of hockey to watch…

Last night, Little Bit (my six year-old daughter, who as some of you have pointed out is not so little anymore) snuggled up next to me on the couch. She said, "I'm gonna sing."
I expected Kelly Clarkson tunes, or maybe Katy Perry. Instead, she burst out in a self-composed ditty:
Girls can do anything they want to do!
Girls can be strong!
Girls can do anything they want to do!
Girls can run fast!
Girls can do anything they want to do!
Girls can shoot baskets!
Evidently, girls can also write songs that get their parents' attention.
Jon and I immediately asked what had brought on this song. Little Bit said that she had been playing some "jock challenge" yesterday during recess.
"Mom, even though I did really well in all the competitions but jumping high, they said I was last because I was a girl. They said boys could be strong and girls couldn't."
Geez, guys, you keep saying this crap?
Girls and Self-Worth
While Little Bit's story made me mad, it didn't surprise me much. I'd grown up a tomboy and had heard much the same thing from the boys in the neighborhood. But despite everything, I'd hoped that years of seeing women in the workplace and in athletics would make the messages my daughter got from her peers a little less blatant.
After all, her male peers were all being raised by strong modern women who'd grown up under Title IX, right? They should know that girls can be successful in sports, academia, work or wherever they put their time and attention.
On the other hand, in January, a study was released finding that by AGE 6 girls start to lose confidence in their abilities, while boys don't. While the study focused on the children's beliefs in their intelligence, it's all too believable that girls' lack of self-confidence and the lack of confidence in girls' abilities stretched into other areas as well.
My kid is six, and already the world is trying to put her and her friends in boxes. Girl. Nice, sweet, hard-working, well-behaved (I can hope!). Boy: brave, strong, confident.
And that difference in confidence slides into adulthood and into earning potential. Women, far more than men, apply for jobs only when they meet 100% of the requirements. Women are less likely to negotiate higher salaries during the hiring process, leaving them at lower starting levels that follow them as they move on in their careers. And women get 15% fewer promotions during their career, in part because they don't aim as high.
Instilling a Little Girl Power
So what's a parent to do when a little girl starts championing her own self-worth in response to others eroding it?
Jon, being the good dad he is, immediately said, "There are a lot of girls a lot stronger than I am."
I, being more direct, said "Girls CAN do anything they want to do and work hard for."
But I wonder if we did enough. After all, I'm still telling her it's not her natural ability, but her effort, that makes the difference. She has to have both to succeed, but she needs confidence in those natural abilities that seemed so obvious in the boys and had to be proven in her case.
So we'll work on the Girl Power messages. Little Bit got new t-shirts this weekend. She chose several with empowering messages: Never Underestimate the Power of a Girl, Grl Pwr, and Challenge Accepted. She watches cartoons with strong (if skimpily dressed) girls, like Monster High and MLP: Equestria Girls. We both idolize Hermione Granger from Harry Potter (and Emma Watson, too!)
Some day, I hope we'll enjoy Buffy together.
But in the meantime, I worry about the messages she gets from pop culture, her peers, and even unthinking adults who act on gender biases. Will she lose her confidence in her abilities?
Keep singing, kiddo.
How would you counteract these messages and promote your daughter's self-confidence and self-worth? Because, guys and gals, it's a long haul, and I need all the advice I can get.

Freddy's 31 Days of Horror Day 27: The Devil's Rejects
The Firefly clan has finally been tracked down by officer Wydell as he had sworn to track them down after they killed his brother who had been searching for the missing kids they kidnapped. All the members awaken to their farm surrounded by a huge police force armed to the teeth and begin arming themselves to fire upon the police with deadly force. A firefight erupts and in the chaos one of the members is gunned down as Baby and Otis make their escape out the cellar of the house and through the woods. Wydell is hellbent on capturing them and avenging his brother putting out APB's and constant news bulletins asking for assistance in their arrest. Captain Spaulding hearing of these reports gets a call from his daughter, Baby, who asks him for help. The three make their way across the South slaughtering everyone in their path trying to find a good hiding place from Wydell.
A lot of people look at sequels and if they are good they usually use the term "Godfather 2" to describe a good sequel. While this is a sequel it's also a standalone film that has two films within it. In general this is Rob Zombie's Godfather. You have villains at the forefront and they are your protagonists. House follows a group of kids that are plagued by the Firefly clan and here you are watching them in the forefront of the film as its main characters. After the first big firefight in the movie we follow Otis and Baby just killing people mercilessly trying to meet up with Captain Spaulding. The scenes of them running and killing in the beginning are put to the tune of classic rock which is very calming set against the brutal images put before you. We then get a torturous section of the movie as Otis and Baby find a traveling band and make them do all kinds of horrendous things and demean them in any way possible. Otis takes joy in making a husband watch him humiliate his wife. Baby has sadistic ways of showing herself off to the men and making the sexual tension completely uncomfortable. Captain Spaulding punches out a mother (PJ Soles from the original Halloween) steals her car and tells a kid to come up with a reason why he doesn't like clowns or he'll come back and kill his whole family! This section of the movie is just hurtful to watch and completely messed up. It can be really summed up in the line Otis gives, "I am the devil, and I'm here to do the devil's work."
The Godfather aspect comes in right when the three are united and all the horrible atrocities we witnessed them commit are a thing of the past as we watch the three bicker like a family about ice cream. This one scene and tonal shift just relaxes you after what you've seen and honestly makes you like the characters a bit because you feel like you're watching a different film. They just become fun loving, family oriented, loud and foul mouthed rednecks and you kind of love them for it. Just as they shift into being loveable, Wydell, who you really feel for in the beginning as he is haunted by the memory of his dead brother, becomes a complete jackass and becomes pretty sadistic in the things he does. By the end when he begins torturing the family you've come to like them and their chemistry so much that you don't know who to root for. Wydell deserves revenge but the three love each other so much that as he's torturing them each one asks to be tortured to spare the other. It's such s genius switch that messes with you as an audience member there are very few films like it.
The aesthetics, character development, editing and the use of music in this film are genius that I think are in fact partly due to the fact Zombie had the guidance of executive producer Peter Block this time around. What really helps sell the film are Sid Haig as Captain Spaulding, Sheri Moon Zombie as Baby and Bill Moseley as Otis. Each one fell perfectly in their characters here and I would say this is Bill Moseley's Oscar worthy performance. He is utterly terrifying in his role. It's Zombie's best film ever and this is what I always hope he can achieve when I sit down to one of his films.

The Texans drafted Brandon Brooks in the 3rd round of the 2012 NFL Draft with the intention of having him compete with career backup Antoine Caldwell to replace Mike Brisiel at right guard. Brooks is not the prototypical zone offensive lineman because of his large size (340 pounds or so), but he ran a sub 5 40 at his Pro Day and the Texans took him anyway, acknowledging that they're never had an offensive lineman as big as him in their zone blocking scheme.
Brooks impressed in OTAs and rookie minicamp, but Gary Kubiak said today that he was disappointed with Brooks' weight at the team's minicamp today, though his weight was not disclosed. This is obviously a setback as he competes for the starting job. It's starting to look like Caldwell, also a former 3rd round pick, from the 2009 NFL Draft, will be the starter at least to start the season. It's not over though, but Brooks will have to get his weight back in check.

• Thermal Safety Fuse
• Excellent Exhaust performance
• Powerful, Efficient and Durable Condenser Motor.
From safety to odor control, there are many reasons why having bathroom /Kitchen exhaust fans in your home are an important necessity.
Although most homes come with exhaust fans already installed, not all of them are effective.
In order to get the most out of your bathroom/kitchen fan, is it important to install one that will provide all of the necessary functions.
Purpose of a Bathroom/kitchen Exhaust Fan
The primary purpose for having an exhaust fan is to remove the moisture out of the bathroom. These fans help to control and eliminate bathroom odors. Additionally, they add to the safety of the home and it's residents by reducing fumes from cleaning agents that could potentially cause health related issues.
Odor Control
One of the largest reasons for having an exhaust fan is for odor control. If an unpleasant odor occurs in the bathroom, it can easily be drawn out with the help of an exhaust fan.
As a result, the ventilation system will enable you to keep your bathroom well maintained, while offering a clean atmosphere for the next person who enters.
Humidity Reduction
Reducing the humidity in a bathroom is vital for its upkeep. Excessive moisture can wreak havoc on bathroom walls by causing paint and wallpaper to peel. In extreme cases it can even cause doors to warp!
Most importantly, the humidity can cause mold to accumulate. These spores can grow rapidly and can be difficult to get rid of. Therefore, t is crucial to have bathroom exhaust fans to prevent this from happening.
Fumes and Safety
Bathrooms are typically cleaned with aggressive chemicals, which can cause a variety of health issues when inhaled. This is a major concern especially for small children, the elderly, or those with current lung conditions.
Additionally, if the bathroom is already experiencing a mold problem, the fan will help to remove the buildup of spores in the air. This in turn will also help to slow down the mold's growth rate.

The Michigan State Spartans are taking on the Arizona Wildcats tonight in college basketball action. The game is scheduled for a 7:00 p.m. start time and it will be televised nationally on ESPN. The college basketball odds for the game have Michigan State favored by a slim margin to pick up the win.
College Basketball Odds Michigan State -1.5Total: 141.5 points
Michigan State and Arizona are playing one of two games in Honolulu, Hawaii as part of the Armed Forces Classic. In year's past they have played the game on an aircraft carrier but this year the games will be played at the Stan Sheriff Center, a small venue that should make these two games a treat to watch.
Both the Spartans and Wildcats are expected to be solid programs once again this season. Michigan State will have to do it while being a relatively small team on the floor.
Miles Bridges is going to be a star at power forward and he could be the best overall player on the floor tonight. Eron Harris, the former West Virginia transfer, also gives the Spartans an added scoring punch that could turn him into the go-to guy for Tom Izzo in tough spots.
Arizona has had a lot of problems this preseason, namely they will play without star Allonzo Trier in this one, he did not travel with the team. Ray Smith is also scheduled to have knee surgery soon and his season is obviously on hold.
Playing in these types of gyms can often times cause some poor shooting. It's obviously the season-opener for both clubs as well, so there could be some offensive deficiencies here.

Door handles as the chrome shows your fingerprint
Door handles as the chrome shows your fingerprint
That's the way you open the door. The car recognizes your print. It's a security issue. :-)
If you have the handles set to present, when you approach your MS, you can actually open the door without the need to place your thumb on the front surface.
Teaching this to your passengers is a whole different thing, being most people are conditioned to apply a fair amount of force to open a vehicle door.
I ordered a roll of 12" paint protection film and cut out a 2" strip for each handle.
Apply soap/water/alcohol mixture on both sides of the film. Affix film to the handle and smooth out the outer side with squeegee. Then use a utility knife to trim each piece to the exact shape of each handle.
Tada, no more finger prints on my chrome handles.
fingerprints on paint protection instead.
There's quite a few listings for paint protection film in Amazon.
No, the fingerprints do not show up on the film.

Soundwill concentrates on development and looks to partnerships
Investment company slows down on acquiring old properties to sell on and looks to strategic partnerships with other property owners
Soundwill Holdings, the investment holding company that has acquired around 100 sites in urban areas to sell on for redevelopment in the past 20 years, has slowed the pace of assembling control of old properties.
Instead, it will focus on forming strategic partnerships with other property owners and developing sites itself.
Vivian Chan Wai-ling, an executive director at Soundwill, said: "Given the difficulties of assembling scattered ownerships in old tenement buildings, we have reduced our exposure to the business since 2009."
The impact on the group's costs of the buyer's stamp duty introduced in October last year, under which non-permanent residents and corporate buyers have to pay a duty equivalent to 15 per cent of transaction prices, was still being assessed, Chan said. But she said she believed acquisition costs would increase
The group is building two "Ginza-style" redevelopments, offering round-the-clock retailing spaces that may be shared by two separate businesses, and two residential projects, Park Haven in Causeway Bay and Warren Woods in Tai Hang.
The retail projects are The Sharp, which sold out all 29 floors on its launch day earlier this month for a total of HK$1.5 billon; and Soundwill Plaza II Midtown, which achieved a monthly rent of HK$100 per square foot, the highest for restaurant tenants in Causeway Bay.
Soundwill has formed a property fund through its wholly-owned subsidiary Soundwill Asset Management and ALPS Real Estate to focus on property investments and development. The Eagle Fund's first project will be a boutique-style luxury residential project at 14-16 Mosque Street in West Mid-Levels.
Chan said: "It is a special vehicle to build the individual project. But if successful we will explore more opportunities with different partners to speed up our expansion through participating in land auctions."
Full ownership of the Mosque Street site, currently occupied by a six-storey residential building with a total of 18 units, was acquired in October 2011. The redeveloped site will provide a total gross floor area of more than 30,000 square feet.
Alfred Lau, a property analyst at investment bank Bocom International, estimated the construction cost of the proposed residential project would be HK$3,000 a sq ft, or HK$90 million excluding land costs.
Soundwill's niche was in such property assembly, Lau said, and if it scaled this business down, this would raise concerns about whether it had a sufficient land bank for future developments.
However, Chan said that the group's existing land bank also included two other projects in Tai Hang and North Point with a total gross floor area of 98,300 square feet, which would be sufficient for new developments over the next five years.
To broaden its income source, she said, the group had also acquired an existing commercial building at 10 Knutsford Terrace, Tsim Sha Tsui, for HK$895 million.
The purchase will expand its investment portfolio to 550,400 sq ft.

Rates of survival from bowel cancer vary more than rates for breast and lung cancer indifferent regions of England, the latest regional cancer statistics show.
The Office for National Statistics figures included data on all adults who were given a diagnosis of cancer between 1994 and 1996 and who were followed up to the end of 2001. They included all the NHS regions in England apart from the North East, because a reorganisation of health areas had artificially skewed the figures in this region.

Social media was sent into rage last week when the picture emerged online of the badly battered buttocks of Odinkaro Helen, an SS1 student of St Saviour's Secondary School, Ijegun, Lagos.
Helen was battered mercilessly by three male teachers, leaving her buttocks red sore for attending a birthday party on Children's day with her parents' permission.
The public outcry attracted the attention of activists in the country with many condemning the battery and calling for action to be taken against the erring teachers.
In reaction to the incident, the Alumni Association of the school waded into the matter in a bid to contain the avoidable brewing storm and today, Tuesday, June 07, 2016, a team of delegates from the Executives of the Alumni Association led by the founder; Esther Ijewere-Kalejaiye, called for and had a crucial meeting with the School's management, and also the victim and certain family members in attendance.
In a statement made available to encomium.ng after the 'settlement', the Alumni founder, Esther Ijewere-Kalejaiye said, "Battery is a punishable offence under the Criminal and Penal laws of the country, as it is in all countries all over the world. Hence, we saw the expedient need to interfere in such a sensitive situation.
"We hereby assure every stakeholder and concerned persons that the matter has been adequately dealt with internally and use this medium to convey the deepest apologies and sincere intentions of the Proprietress of the School that such demeaning acts as this WILL NOT repeat itself going forward.
"After moments of deliberation, both invited parties came to a compromise, with the following resolutions as a result therefrom, which includes but not limited to:
- Total abolition of use of cane as disciplinary measure;
- Standard guidance/counseling unit to be put in place earnestly;
- Restrain on Parents/Guardians from addressing issues on media at the slightest provocation without recourse to the School management as an external line of communication between Pupils, Parents and the School management will be provided earnestly;
- Proper orientation and provision of checks and corrective measures over acts of Staff members.
We thank everyone involved with this matter, from Officers of the Nigerian Police Force, Ministry of education, to Social media players. We hereby appeal once more that the matter has been amicably settled."
- Daniel Fayemi for encomium.ng

What was he thinking?
It's hard to fathom what Governor Schwarzenegger was thinking when took his veto pen to the state's proposed budget and slashed an additional $489 million, primarily by taking even more from social services.
He sayshe sees "the real Californians" that will be affected his cuts. But what does that mean? That he sees them from inside his Hummer? That he spots them when he looks down from his private jet?
The fact that his cuts targeted the poor, the elderly, the sick and the disabled made one thing clear: Not only is Mr. Brentwood Mansion far removed from actual people actually struggling through real, actual unscripted hard times, but his message to these real Californians is, yet again, "tough luck."
Martin Salas, on the other hand, has been thinking precisely about real folks.
As the director of HIV prevention services and health education at the AIDS Services Foundation in Irvine, Salas makes it his business to know the problems that real Californians with HIV and AIDS are facing.
So, when he learned that the Governator signed a budget that will include a drastic cut to AIDS/HIV prevention services, his first thoughts were of the HIV-positive single mother named Amparo.
She can no longer work. She rents a living room so she and her son have a place to sleep. Through ASF, Amparo gets rental assistance, some transportation, groceries, nurse case management, counseling and financial assistance to cover her AIDS medications.
But after the Governator's budget comes through, it's unclear what kind of help she might get. Or, if her medicine becomes unavailable, how long she'll live.
What's galling for Salas and others in the AIDS prevention business is a simple fact: Their programs savetax money.
Think about it. The cost of a condom: 7 cents. The cost of a lifetime of medical care for a person living with AIDS: More than $600,000.
So the way the program works now is that we spend a little and prevent more people from dying of AIDS. It makes sense, but it takes an investment that pays off in huge savings for taxpayers down the road.
"It takes very little money to prevent HIV. But it takes a lot of money to care for and provide medical care," Salas says.
On Wednesday, Salas learned that because of the new cutbacks the state's Office of AIDS will no longer pay local agencies to perform HIV testing and HIV prevention. Those services might still be provided, on some level, but only if local agencies such as ASF in Irvine can come up with private or local funding.
Salas, unlike the Governator, understands thrift. While Arnold drives Hummers, Salas drives a 2002 Ford Escape. Not so ironically, Salas' ride is in the shop right now.
The latest air-kiss from the Governator hits ASF at a time when the nonprofit is being beaten up by the recession. This year's AIDS Walk Orange County raised about $490,000, down from about $700,000 in '08. The agency also has lost private grants that once helped pay for ASF's rapid HIV testing program, reducing testing from five days a week to three.
Such reductions make it tougher to reach a segment of the population that's a potential time bomb in terms of health care and, yes, tax spending – the pool of people who don't yet know they are HIV positive.
Again, ponder the finances of HIV prevention: More early testing means more early detection. More early detection saves billions of dollars in down-the-line spending on people with full-blown AIDS.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says about one in four HIV-positive people in the United States don't know they have the disease.
I know the real people that Salas has been thinking about. Over the last ten years I've interviewed them in their homes, including Amparo, who, when I last spoke to her, was living with her 6-year-old son Willie in a tiny rented camper parked in the backyard of a Santa Ana house. The camper was so small that the three of us talked outside on the patio on fold-out chairs.
In frail health, Amparo's voice revealed how weak she was. Every time I called her home I could hear her exhaustion. But her words revealed how much she wanted to keep living.
She feared dying, not for herself, but for Willie, who would be alone if she died.
The Governator just sent his message.
But nonprofits like the AIDS Services Foundation send a message too, that people like Amparo aren't alone.
Salas knows that most "real" Californians don't commute home by jet. They are people like Amparo who are, every day, living the painful reality of these tough times.

Idlefon: Intensive Collectivity Known As City
Tangent: Transience
Refined ambient-electronic music production knows no borders, something clearly borne out by respective new releases on Tympanik Audio by Tangent, a Netherlands outfit featuring drummer/sound designer Ralph van Reijendam and vocalist/sound engineer Robbert Kok, and Idlefon, the alias adopted by Tehran, Iran-based computer musician/sound artist Hesam Ohadi.
Transience, Tangent's follow-up to 2013's 1mk2, sees the Dutch duo presenting the listener with an evocative, sixty-five-minute travelogue that plays like some imaginary sound portrait of a civilization's collapse and rebirth. In the early stages of the recording, there's a dark tone to the material that conjures images of smoldering ruins and decimated landscapes, as well as an industrial undercurrent that suggests a failed vision of progress, but the mood lifts near the half-way mark. The duo gives great attention to the textural make-up of a given piece in overlaying curdling beatwork with symphonic washes and detailed electronic moodsculpting, resulting in brooding set-pieces of powerfully evocative character. Though identifiable sounds at times emerge from the mix (acoustic and electric piano, field recordings, etc.), Tangent's focus is on the whole rather than parts; in other words, it's the entire make-up of a given piece that is the duo's primary concern, and sounds only matter in terms of the effect they have upon the overall arrangement.
The air is sometimes so thick with dust and grime, the view is obscured by the multiple layers that accumulate so suffocatingly. But as despairing as some tracks on Transience might be, others hint that there's room for hope. Rising from the smothering ashes of Shattered, Expanding Horizons, for example, allows some semblance of light to filter into its post-apocalyptic design, while faint traces of children's voices suggest the promise of new life during the contemplative moodpiece Discovery. Radiating Singularity less radiates singularity than energy, as if to suggest that the industrial activity present is being used in the service of reconstruction; in similar manner, the very track titles Bloom and Reformed Construction intimate positive developments of a similar kind. In terms of volume and dynamics, Transience isn't an overbearing collection, even if there are a few aggressive moments here and there. In fact it's the quieter pieces such as Discovery and Reformed Construction, however, that speak most strongly on behalf of Tangent's artistry on this slightly overlong outing by the Dutch outfit.
Intensive Collectivity Known As Cityeffectively timed at forty-nine minutesis perhaps an even more evocative sound portrait than Transience. Ohadi's debut Idlefon album for the Tympanik label threads voices, electronics, beats, and textures into an ambient-IDM collection that teems with suggestive detail. In keeping with the album's title, the myriad activities associated with everyday urban life are evoked by the eleven tracks, and contrasts in style, dynamics, and mood are plentiful.
Fragments of speaking voices babble through Where Voices Vanish, creating an ethereal effect consistent with the foggy ambiance of the mysterious zone conjured by the instrumental elements. Glitch-ridden machine beats drape their scabbed patterns across the light-fading swirl of FairLight, and there's an ominous quality to the tones and washes of Reminiscence that suggests the memories in question are more disturbing than cheering. Anything but anemic, the recording surges with life in the tracks where robust beat patterns appear. Cases in point, Intensive Collectivity exudes a noticeably positive spirit when its whistling light streams and exhaling washes are augmented by a percolating pulse, and Ikigami receives a boost from the inclusion of a punchy, hip-hop-inflected beat pattern.
Intensive Collectivity Known As City settles into classic electronica mode on a number of pieces, Of Rust and Pretend it's Spring (featuring Siavash Amini) among them, before exiting on a vaporous cloud of ambient serenity in Pickers of Empty Cocoons (featuring Nima Pourkarimi). In contrast to the travelogue impression created by the uninterrupted tracks on Transience, Intensive Collectivity Known As City presents eleven distinct settings that come across as individual portraits of varying phenomena within an imagined cityscape. That it does so makes it no less effective than the Tangent recording, just one that's different in kind.

The nginx webserver is pretty lightweight and can be build with the addition of a rtmp-module. This module adds a whole "media server" to nginx. The feature list is pretty extensive and can be found here. I got help by dodgepong's guide on the OBS forum, but I changed it very slightly and will add some parts. First of all I am doing this setup on Ubuntu 13.4/64bit with a simple standard installation running on a Virtual Machine. You can use VMware player or even grab a complete VirtualBox image which is already configured with nginx right here. If you are using your own Linux installation, no matter if its a VM or dedicated PC, you will need the following packages for the building of nginx+rtmp module.
sudo apt-get install build-essential libpcre3 libpcre3-dev libssl-dev
Next we need to grab the nginx sources and the latest rtmp module sources.
wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.4.2.tar.gz wget https://github.com/arut/nginx-rtmp-module/archive/master.zip
I tested nginx version 1.2.7 and 1.4.2 so far without problems. Now lets extract both files to setup the make file.
tar -zxvf nginx-1.4.2.tar.gz unzip master.zip cd nginx-1.4.2
Make sure all folder names are correct, you might have to change some settings according to the version you downloaded. To build and install nginx now with the rtmp-module, we have to configure the add-module parameter and then start building and finally install everything.
./configure --add-module=../nginx-rtmp-module-master $ make $ sudo make install
Thats it, if you get no error code you now have installed nginx+rtmp-module. You can use the following command to open the nginx.conf in a text editor (in my example gedit) with root privileges:
sudo gedit /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf
In the next guide I will talk about different configuration options, but for now I will give you the most simple rtmp server code for the config, and of course the startup parameter:
rtmp { server { listen 1935; chunk_size 4096; application live { live on; record off; } } }
Add these line to the end of your nginx.conf. To start nginx, you just enter this line:
sudo /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx
And to stop nginx you use this:
sudo /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx -s stop
And streaming to this server is just as simple:
Streaming Service: Custom Server: rtmp://serverip/live Play Path/Stream Key: test (or whatever)
Be sure to check out my second guide for some usage examples, and more info on how to stream to this server, or use it to forward streams.

A short post, typed through gritted teeth…can you type through gritted teeth? When I was young, and naughty (which of course was a very rare occurrence) my mother would say despairingly "I could give you away with half a pound of tea!"
So, puppy, anyone? Very nice tea, Clipper, organic. Very naughty dog though. No-one with any sense would want him, however good the tea.
The crime? Well it's gardening related. Over at Purple Podded Peas Celia has some excellent staff, Undergardeners par excellence. Weeding, hoeing, pest clearance, manure…they are the business!
Here? Well, the Head Gardener is happy to put in an appearance…
…but is pretty laid back these days.
The Undergardener?
Over enthusiastic and won't take instruction. Has been given a verbal warning.
After two afternoons spent tidying and clearing the vegetable garden and hoiking the weeds out of the raised beds out came the seed packets to see what I could get going in the one bed I'd had the cover on for a couple of weeks to warm up the soil. I sowed half a bed, salad leaves, chives, spring onions, red spring onions, radishes, carrots…and in pots sowed basil, dill and coriander. Tired by then,and thirsty, I popped in for a well deserved cuppa and came out to…chaos…
The Undergardener had heaved himself on his stumpy little legs over the sleeper which formed the bed, and into the nice, soft, fluffy compost and it's neat rows of seeds and, well, I don't know…disco dancing? mining? fossil hunting?
No more neat rows…no more labels…even the labels in the pots had been taken out and chewed…I won't know if it's basil, or dill, or coriander until they've grown big enough to taste…
So that's why Higgins is lying in his bed looking worried about the packet of tea. But do you know? In the end my Mum didn't give me away either….

Top 8 Reasons Mobile Start-ups Take a Nose Dive
Highly successful mobile start-ups all lean on the dawn of great ideas. The ideas become reality through strategically sound implementation.
However, before even hiring an app developer , you need to be on the lookout and avoid mistakes that are the cause of many mobile start-ups stalling prematurely. Let's discuss those reasons as well as likely causes and certain ways of bypassing these costly and often irreversible mistakes.
1. Know Your Target Audience
Most start-ups fall into the trap of putting revenues as priority no.1. Customers should always be at the forefront when you're cooking up ideas for your app. Narrow down your demographic and think about what you want the app to accomplish, how it will solve certain everyday problems for your users, their specific needs – this will help you implement only the most desired features. Like they say, the narrower the current, the stronger it is.
2. Be Aware of Your Competitors
I think this has to do more with sense and sensibility, than anything else. Nobody should have to go down the "jack of all, ace of none" road, so gather extensive info on your competitor's product and analyze it thoroughly. Always good to have an ace or two up your sleeve.
Try to find cracks in your competitor's product – these are opportunities for you to make your apps more economical, user-friendly, perhaps with a focus on more or better features and convenience.
3. Accurate Customer Feedback
You have got to avoid any pitfalls when it comes to acquiring timely and accurate customer feedback. Proper communication with your customers simply shows that you care about what they think. Accurate feedback lets you gather recommendations and opinions, and allows you to lay the groundwork for making your app better through updates. A well-supported app can easily win a higher ranking, along with the hearts of many customers.
This is where the app store user rating comes into the picture. Apps getting average ratings of 4 or higher out of 5 stars are the most widely used and recommended. To respond to this feedback, you need to have solid app support at your disposal in order to provide updates and bug fixes.

4. Monetization Policy – Don't Jump the Gun
Above everything else, you must decide how exactly you're going to rake in profits. Ask yourself:
- How am I going to gain revenues once my app is launched?
- What strategy should I implement to continue seeing my revenues rise?
- Should I charge users for the app or is it going to be completely free?
- Are there going to be in-app purchases and/or other monetizing methods I'll rely on?
Choosing the right monetization model largely depends on what future you foresee for your mobile start-up business.
For instance, if you have budget constraints, your mobile product needs to be reeling in profits right away. Naturally, it would have to be a paid one. However, in order for this to work, it must also be superior to your competitor's apps, and offer certain characteristics that really make it stand out.
If you're targeting a social network, your app will have to be free, though you need to work out what kind of demographic you're trying to attract and in what numbers. Also, a game plan so as to how you will 'eventually' make profits, needs to be put in motion. Price it just right to keep it competitive.
5. Budget Beware
Be wise about how you invest your cash, especially if the budget is fixed. If your vision doesn't go hand-in-hand with your budget, get by with the bare minimum – include only features that are absolutely needed for the concept or premise to work. This always leaves a comfortable margin for you to add updates, features and improvements as and when desired. The designated software developer is the ideal person to consult in this case.
6. The Flexibility of a Gymnast
Mobile markets are bending and stretching – changing rapidly as we speak. Customer demands and requirements are constantly shifting, including new mobile devices and trends surfacing. Learning to react instantaneously can elevate your business to new heights, along with having an uncanny ability to adapt.
Stand alert and welcome changes to your business model or vision, no matter how major or minor those may be. A little extra prep never hurt anybody.

7. Surprise!
You conceive a new idea and bam… you want it implemented in the app. Ideas rarely have the tendency to stop popping up – altering the flow of the development process is a definite no-no and can really put an emergency brake on your mobile start-up's progress.
Even though some changes are minor and can be added under certain circumstances, as long as the code does not need to be altered too heavily, we're good.
However, most changes do require reworking the code, which is going to undesirably add to your development cycle. The developer's already working under a lot of pressure, trying to meet the deadline – the last thing you want to do is add little "speed bumps" by asking them to throw in new features.
Here's what I recommend: sit down with your developer and have an upfront and transparent conversation about what you want done with the app. Then discuss a list of possible features you may want implemented later on; ask the developer if it's feasible or not to add them at any given point in the process.
8. Your Marketing Approach
Whatever promotional tactics or tools you incorporate, they must be transparent. Identifying your target audience is essential, so much so that your customers enjoy calling your app worthy, highly functional and fairly easy to use.
Marketing often turns out to be a lengthy and cumbersome process, much like development. You must ensure you have the promotional horsepower under the hood to execute tasks seamlessly.
There you go. There's your basic checklist of things to avoid and how to get a handle on things from the very beginning. Get in touch with us to discuss your app development needs. In addition, we'd also love to know what you have to say on the subject; leave your comments below.


text: Anyone had this before, yesterday while showing my mate something it started to play up, explorer opens slowly and all tasks seem to take forever to load. Interestingly I have traced it only to my C: drive(and partitions on it), opening up through the start menu and going to my computer, if I select C: it takes forever to open up and disply the directory structure, if I pick D: which is my second drive it opens and displys in a flash. I had noticed this during the week when transferring files between physical drives, but thought nothing of it. I have removed my Virus checker to see if the real-time scan had been enabled by accident and was still on even though I told it to turn off, but this made no difference. I am at a loss to explain this slowness, any ideas appreciated.

|Heaven is where you have ever-laughing life.
It is with sorrow and rejoicing that we announce that John David Riley stepped into heaven to be with his beloved Lord Jesus in the pre-dawn hours of Wednesday, Feb. 26, 2014. His whole life was "constrained by the love of Christ" to show those for whom his heart ached and bled the Way to redemption and hope. He always managed to interject his testimony and witness into even the most obscure conversations. He was funny, enjoyed word-play, and was a jack-of-all-trades-and-master-of-them-all. He dearly missed his sweet wife, Annie, who preceded him into death in 2011. Their eventful lives were filled with blessings and hardship. It is with thankful hearts that we know they are at peace and resting in the arms of a Great Big God.
A Memorial Service will be held Friday, March 7, 1:00 p.m. at 1st Assembly of God Church, 3401 25th St. S., Fargo, ND 58104. RSVP on Facebook to Judyth Grover, Teresa Buckingham or Susan Riley; or send an email to email@example.com.
Flowers and cards may be sent in care of Judy Grover, 107 Ames Ave., Harwood, ND 58042.
A memorial fund has been established with World Gospel Mission to continue the work to which David and Annie Riley devoted their lives. To donate, send a designated check to 3783 East State Road 18, 3783, Marion, IN 46952, or call (765)664-7331 to contribute by credit card over the phone.
"What I remember most about David Riley is his memorable quotes. I hope I haven't already sent this memory in 2014. My husband was the person who looked on the bright side when all seemed dark to others. One day when David came to Mweya to pick up their children from board school because the country was unsettled and nationals were fighting, David stopped at our house and said, "Well, I see my pessimism is winning out!" You see, Jim was the eternal optimist and David called himself the eternal pessimist. I think we'll all be optimists when we get to heaven and get to be together again!"
"I remember as a child proudly letting everyone know that MY Aunt and Uncle were missionaries! What a special designation awarded to two incredibly gifted and dedicated servants of God. I will forever cringe at the pain that Annie lived with for decades and observe David's faithfulness to her. To that marriage were born unbelievably gifted children and I stand in awe of each of you. I have so many fond memories of your mother and dad and can say that I never saw them without a smile of their faces. Life most likely was never easy for them but they were faithful, loving servants and reached many people with their love and support - teaching, feeding, providing for the furtherance of God's kingdom. The days ahead will be flooded with memories, laughter and tears. I pray each of you peace as your say your final goodbyes on earth and await a great reunion one day! Love you all!"
"I will never forget my loving, caring big brother.He was always checking
up on me when David, Paul, Tom & I were in boarding school in Port Shepstone, Natal, South Africa. He was concerned that I didn't get too
homesick, & that I was safe & didn't need anything. His knowledge of
languages stayed with him. Recently I called to ask him what a Zulu
word, that had just popped into my head, meant. He said that means
strength, like the strength God gives us when we have to endure very
difficult times. He and Annie went through so much. Love to their Godly
children, Judyth, Teresa, Susan, Eric and their families."
"David was a faithful and caring brother. He looked after me when I was helpless and taught me a lot about mechanics. I feel blessed to have have had the assurance he was there when I needed him. He sometimes rode a bicycle with me when we went home from Port Shepstone to Umzumbi for the week end."
"My husband Jim and your father Dave always teased each other about Jim's being the eternal optimist. Once when war was going on in 1972, your parents came to Mweya to pick you up from boarding school. Your dad came to our house and said, "Well, Jim, I see my pessimism is winning out." That became an often quoted statement. Thank God for people like your parents that persevered even when life was difficult! They will be rewarded! We loved them, and they loved us!"
"Aunt Annie & Uncle David are amazing! I am so blessed to have known them both.
My mom told the story of the government wanting to teach Flemish in the schools. many organizations were in a panic. but the Friends had David Riley: he had grown up in S Africa & knew Flemish well! when the inspectors came around, expecting to close down the Protestant schools = there they were, totally up to & beyond the government regulations!
I also recall that there had been many robberies in the Buja area & the police came to Uncle David & Aunt Annie asking for help.
Uncle David made a big deal in a public area (a restaurant? the local duka?) about having the mission money on hand & being worried about his safety.
Aunt Annie & the kids left the house, some cops took up residence in a bathroom & back bedroom.
sure enough, the robbers came around demanding the money. down the hall, past the splashing in the bathroom (oh, my wife is in there taking a bath), into the back bedroom. and the robbers were surrounded & captured!
a visit to the Riley's included hugs, fresh baked goodies, funny stories, new kittens . . . whether in Burundi or Kansas.
love & prayers to each of you: Eric, Susan, Judy, & Teresa
and your families.
Ginna (Orcutt) Scott"
