There are tonnes of things I love about living in Ottawa, and the Rideau Canal Skateway is number one, hands down.
In twenty-four winters of hopes dashed or bettered, I have never had a harsh word for the skateway.
Even when I went through to my thigh in ice-cold water (which is what I deserved for skating out of bounds).
Even when I sprained my thumb and had to forgo my very first xc-ski race (which is what I should have expected when skating with a brain-injured friend — twice my size).
Even when it melts and freezes and melts and freezes, when it's bumpy, or crowded, or narrow, or short or when snow-covered cracks threaten to send me flying.
I absolutely always excuse it. I fiercely defend it. I'm unconditionally grateful when it's open. I focus only on what's good.
If only forgiveness were always so easy.

Mogadore Christian Church will offer two styles of worship on Sunday at new times. A traditional service of hymns, message and Communion will begin at 9:30 a.m. Fellowship Coffee on Common Grounds will be offered at 10:30, followed at 11 a.m. by contemporary worship, with praise music, message and Communion.
Expression in worship is personal to each of us in our walk with the Lord. Mogadore Christian Church hopes that these options may be of help to everyone in the "major Mogadore metropolitan area" in the search for a church to grow with and be fed. Pastor Elmer Johnson will bring the Word at both services, and all are welcome. For more information, call the church office at 33-628-3344 or visit Mogadorechristian.com.

As we mentioned yesterday, the 2017 Final Four is about the contrast between one team (North Carolina) that's in the blue blood club and among the most accomplished in college … More
The 2017 Final Four picture is almost set, with Gonzaga, Oregon and South Carolina already booking a place for next weekend in Glendale, all making it this far for the first time or simply after an incredibly long drought. The fourth team, as mentioned in our earlier post, is going to be one that's been at this stage a time or two: North Carolina or Kentucky. More
Oregon having their worst season since 1991 has turned up the temperature under Mark Helfrich's hot seat, with the Ducks administration reportedly looking for a replacement, and if they find one, they'll fire their head coach of the last four years. More
It seems the list of teams worth mocking at the end of week 6 is endless: Miami, poor Rutgers, overrated Texas, falling apart Oregon and Michigan State, and let's not forget the still-stunned Houston. More
There were plenty of teams to mock with memes in week 4 for their losses: Oregon, Florida, LSU and Notre Dame to name a few, but it seems that an Auburn girl getting hit in the face with a kick caused the strongest reaction. More
An upset was in the air, but no one at Florida State thought their visit to Louisville would be so humiliating, resulting in an endless stream of memes, making fun of them and especially of celebrity porn star fan Mia Khalifa. Oregon and Oklahoma (appearing on this for the second time this season) got their fair share of Internet jokes coming their way too. More
After Oregon knocked out Duke from the NCAA Tournament, Dillon Brooks had a short exchange with Mike Krzyzewski. The Ducks sophomore said that Coach K told him off about that last shot and celebration, Krzyzewski said he didn't say anything. The audio released from the short conversation shows clearly which one lied about it. More
From the beginning of the season Mike Krzyzewski has been laying the groundwork for an early NCAA Tournament exit. It didn't Duke losing to Oregon any less joyful to people making memes. More
The 2016 NCAA Tournament Sweet Sixteen field is made up of six ACC teams (North Carolina, Virginia, Duke, Syracuse, Notre Dame and Miami) three Big 12 teams (Kansas, Oklahoma and Iowa State), three Big Ten teams (Indiana, Maryland and Wisconsin), one from the WCC (Gonzaga), one from the SEC (Texas A&M), one from the Pac-12 (Oregon) and one from the Big East (Villanova). More
The number one seeds chosen for the 2016 NCAA Tournament – Kansas, Virginia, North Carolina and Oregon, might not actually be the best four teams in the nation. And as far as their compatibility with what usually makes a champion? There are questions about whether or not each of them are good enough to go all the way. More

The other night Katie and I were a little bored. So we decided to try something new. Something crazy. We decided to live like the common people and journey to Lawrence, KS to eat some burgers.
We went to the Burger Stand at the Casbah and it was good. Not mind blowing. Not disappointing. Good.
Except for the duck fat fries. But I'll talk about those glorious fuckers here in a minute.
You see, Katie and I were both privately educated. So while you public school kids were doing keg stands and disappointing your parents, we were drinking scotch and plotting how to profit off of your future labors.
Not really, but we're going to go with that.
So while we set ourselves up very nicely for later in life, we missed out on the rampant tomfoolery of living in a college town that throws shots with abandon. After asking around, we were pointed to the Burger Stand as the place to start our night.
As we entered it, there was a line consisting of: bros, a group of unbathed young men in purposely shitty-looking clothing, a person that I guarantee rode a fixed-speed bike there and girls wearing ill-fitting sweat pants.
Ah, the publics.
I didn't get a photo of the line itself because they were all staring at me. Probably because they overheard me tell Katie that they smelt like patchouli. But here is one of the bar and a dude that's wearing a backwards baseball hat indoors.
So we order. Being that it's a college town, there's a PBR special. So I order it to fit in. Katie gets a vodka soda.
They call our names and I go grab our food while trying my hardest to not slam the shit out of my forehead on the low ceiling. Seriously though, the ceiling leading to the food pick-up window is dangerously low. You've been warned, taller, much better than shorter people, readers.
So what did we order?
I got a butchers burger (beef, sausage, bacon patty w/ habanero ketchup and onion straws) with a side of duck fat fries.
Katie got a black and blu burger with a side of poutine. What's poutine? It's a Canadian delicacy consisting of fries, brown gravy, cheese curds and lost self-respect.
Now let's talk duck fat fries.
Because they were the real mvp here.
Everything else was good. But not worth driving out to Lawrence for. The duck fat fries, on the other hand, were the stuff of legend.
You need them.
Right now.
In your mouth.
Can you hear them?
Singing to you?
Listen to their siren song.
Eat the fuck out of them.
They have a very unique flavor. And I loved it. You might not like them. I don't know. But they did awesome things to my taste buds. Super bad for you, but then again, sitting amongst all these liberals is just as bad for your health too, so why not?
We stuck around and had a few more drinks because there was a group of dirty, feral children outside and I didn't want to deal with that shit. Yes, I'm an asshole. I get it. But do you know what I don't get? Hepatitis.
I had a good time, though. The energy of the place was great. It's a cool place to drink. Next time I'm in Lawrence, though, I'll probably just get drinks and duck fat fries here then go to Hank's Charcuterie. Because that place looked super rad. And had at least 1,389% less drunk girls wearing ill-fitting sweatpants.
Taste: 6/10
Duck Fat Fries: 10/10
Environment: 8/10
Bathrooms: Pregnant lady was in it for like 37 minutes. Didn't go.
Taste: 7/10
Environment: 8/10
Bathrooms: Meh.

UnNews:Sarah Palin Undresses RNC
This article is part of UnNews, your source for up-to-the-microsecond misinformation.
4 September 2008
ST PAUL, MN - UNN Vowing to break with tradition, presumptive Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin tonight addressed the body at the Republican National Convention wearing a red white and blue bikini and went on the attack, calling for proud American white people everywhere to "Fight on behalf our our right to drink beer, our right to carry semi-automatic weapons and our right to pray after we screw at a NASCAR race, in the infield," to thunderous applause.
"I am here tonight to tell you that sex before marriage is OK if you are a Republican. I am here to tell you that character assassination is a God-given right to you if you are a Republican. I am here to tell you that if I get my way there will be NASCAR races held on the Ellipse in Washington DC because we're Republicans and we can do anything we God Damn well please!"
Palin was quick to point out the differences that she has with Barack Obama and Joe Biden as well.
"Barack Obama may think he is the chosen one, and Joe Biden may think that he is blessed for being Obama's running mate. But I am here to tell you that as long as I live, so help me God, that there will be a white person living in the White House and that Romanism will never sully the White Power that graces our Capital. To both Obama and Biden, Satan's chosen pair, I say that you will not get you hands on our women, you will not get you hands on our Nuclear Bombs, and I say fuck the both of you because when I am done with you I will rip off your heads and shit down your throats!"
Palin's speech was widely awaited by members of her party, who were curious to see how the neophyte Alaskan Governor, and soon-to-be grandmother, would face her critics. It was her first public speech after the announcement that her daughter's abstinence training had failed, and that after having unsafe sex with her boyfriend she was pregnant with what could conceivably become the First Bastard born in the Vice Presidential mansion since Dick Cheney's granddaughter was born to Cheney's Lesbian daughter. Palin's daughter got pregnant after she misunderstood parts of her mother's campaign for more drilling in Alaska.
When Palin was finished with her speech, she flashed her breasts to the crowd in a defiant and symbolic show of good old-fashioned woman power.

Doesn't trying to demonstrate how we know anything beg the question?
It needn't. Like Descartes, you might try to demonstrate a priori that you possess perceptual (i.e., external-world) knowledge. Your demonstration needn't presume perceptual knowledge in the course of demonstrating that you possess perceptual knowledge. Therefore, your demonstration needn't beg the question of whether you have perceptual knowledge in the first place. Most philosophers, I think, regard all such demonstrations (including Descartes's) as failures, but I don't see any reason to think that all such demonstrations must fail because they beg the question.
Consider a more interesting case. Suppose I analyze knowledge as true belief produced by a reliable mechanism, i.e., a mechanism that yields far more true than false beliefs in the conditions in which it's typically used. A skeptic then challenges me to show that some perceptual belief I regard as knowledge, such as my belief that I have hands, was in fact produced by a reliable mechanism. In response, I offer empirical evidence in favor of my belief: others verify that I have hands; I clap my hands; I shake the skeptic's hand; I cite other outputs of my perceptual belief-forming mechanism, etc. The skeptic then protests that I'm begging the question because my method of verification simply assumes that I have perceptual knowledge: I simply assume that the evidence I offer was reliably obtained.
I think the skeptic's protest is unfair. It's unfair to ask me to show that my perceptual belief-forming mechanism is reliable while disallowing me the very means I would need to show it, namely, data that I obtain by perception. Alternatively, the skeptic could try to show that my belief-forming mechanisms are not reliable, but skeptics seldom if ever try to show that. Or the skeptic could reject my analysis of the concept of knowledge, but then the skeptic would have to offer grounds for rejecting it, which skeptics seldom if ever do.

In modern society, the stigma surrounding the hemp (cannabis) plant has finally begun to recede, as overwhelming evidence of the plant's medicinal properties has become impossible to ignore. At CBDfx, our goal is to give customers the widest possible selection of the best quality full spectrum CBD products to help improve their quality of life. Most of our products are fully vegan, adding another layer of environmental responsibility to our production process.
Our philosophy
Our philosophy is that a natural, plant-based approach to self-care is always preferable to a manufactured, pharmaceutical one unless absolutely medically necessary. CBD is one of the most exciting compounds currently available for therapeutic use, thanks to exciting research about its effect on a wide variety of symptoms and ailments, and the fact that it is abundantly available from the robust hemp plant.
Take a look at our customer testimonials, and you'll find people singing the praises of CBD's palliative effect on conditions ranging from lupus, to social anxiety, to muscular dystrophy, and more. No, CBD is not meant to authoritatively treat these conditions or replace your primary care treatment; but as an at-home, self-administered, natural source of pain and anxiety relief, CBD's potential is incredibly promising. It's why we're so passionate about what we do.
Quality of life is what we are after
With our customers' quality of life in mind, we make it our mission to provide you with the best CBD oil for vaping, CBD dabs, CBD tincture of the highest quality, CBD drinks, and so much more.

Learn to flirt like a pro with this expert advice!
If you're really into the new guy you just met, you might have some questions about how to show him you like him without being needy, clingy or freaking him out in a way that causes him to head for the hills. How much do you reveal and when?
First, you'll need to decide if you're in one of two categories of people. Some of you "dignity daters" out there are naturally born with skills in the art of flirting. And then there are those of us who are not … And for you, dear reader, we here at Dating with Dignity have come up with an airtight guide with tips on how to show a guy you like him in a way that is not only dignified but incredibly sexy!
This guy could be the man you're out with right now while you're reading this post (Stop it. Put your phone away!), the waiter who's serving you during girls night out, your oldest guy friend, or a stranger at Starbucks.
Use these tips, and we think he'll get the picture!
1. Complain about something together. Find something small or insignificant that bothers both of you: maybe the giant deer head on the wall that you both laughed about. Poking fun at the same things helps you get closer, and it also puts you on the same team! Of course, you don't want to turn into "Debbie Downer" and engage him in a negative rant. Rather, this is where your sense of humor blends with making a connection and as a result can create a sense of fun-loving and flirtatious camaraderie.
2. Compliment his new shirt. If you think guys don't like or crave compliments, you are mistaken. Ask him where he got it. If he says he sometimes needs another opinion, offer to be that opinion-giver.
3. Make the most of body language. Make genuine, consistent eye contact. Let him know you're paying attention to what he's saying. Smile often when you're with him (And not at the guy behind him). Smile at him.

Florence Bascom
Growing up the daughter of a college professor and a suffragette, Florence Bascom was encouraged to follow her passion for learning, earning bachelors of arts and of letters in 1882 and a bachelor's of science two years later all from the University of Wisconsin where she stayed to earned her masters of science in 1887.
Desiring to continue her education by working with a particular professor at Johns Hopkins University, she applied to the school and was told she could attend but wouldn't officially be enrolled as a student. She was allowed to take classes but only sitting in a corner behind a screen as to not be a distraction for the male students.
Reapplying to the doctoral program in 1892 she was accepted in secret completing her dissertation on the re-identification of certain rocks using cutting-edge petrographic techniques that is considered highly influential to the field of geology.
During the time Dr. Bascom was obtaining her education she was also educating others-teaching at various schools including Hampton University and Ohio State University. Leaving Ohio she accepted a position at Bryn Mawr College where she could teach higher level geology courses and conduct original research.
Part of this research was as an assistant geologist for the U.S. Geological Survey and 1909 she was promoted to geologist and assigned to the Mid-Atlantic Piedmont region of the U.S. Most of her work involved the crystalline rocks and geomorphology of this region. She created U.S. Geological Survey folios on Philadelphia, Trenton, Elkton-Wilmington, Quakertown-Doylestown and Honeybrook-Phoenixville.
In the first edition of American Men of Science she was give 4 stars, a very high honor for a scientist of any gender. The second woman elected to the Geological Society of America, she would go on to hold leadership positions in the group.
During her time at Bryn Mawr she founded the school's department of geology and a graduate program that would train many of the first women geologists of the 20th century. Retiring from teaching in 1928 she continued working at the USGS until 1936.

One writer's first time out of the house with her newborn proved trickier than she ever imagined. Here's how she coped and eventually found joy and adventure.
As a paranoid new mom, I spent the first days after Quinn's birth under self-imposed house arrest. Actually taking my girl out into the world seemed unbelievably stressful. But after a couple of weeks cooped up with the "colic queen," I had to get out. Our maiden voyage would be a trip to the grocery store.
Although my husband was willing to help, I was determined to handle the excursion alone. I planned to pop Quinn into her baby carrier/car seat, then head out, hoping for the best. But I soon realized that a simple trip to the store was even harder than I'd imagined.
Quinn could barely handle a diaper change without having a meltdown in those days, so my clumsy attempt at wrangling her into the carrier was met with pitiful howling. As I sat sweating in the backseat trying to calm her, I realized that I had no idea what to do once we got to the store. I'd seen parents with baby carriers attached to their shopping carts, but I was clueless as to the mechanics involved. With Quinn finally calmed down, I decided to figure it out once we got there.
Ten minutes later we arrived, and in a rare show of mercy, Quinn had fallen asleep. I cautiously removed the carrier from the base and found that clicking it into a cart was surprisingly easy. Locked and loaded, I whisked a slumbering Quinn into the store, satisfied that we were on our way to mastering the mother-daughter shopping trip.
After navigating checkout, I steered Quinn and the groceries toward the car, feeling giddy with success. Next I had to figure out how to get her, the bags and myself into the car, then return the cart, but the order of operations eluded me. I decided to turn on the ignition and get the air conditioning running before transferring Quinn so my sleeping beauty could cruise in comfort. Once I got the car and air going, I turned around to remove Quinn from the cart. Except there was no cart, and there was no Quinn. I looked up to find my 2-week-old sailing across the parking lot.
I ran to catch her before she could collide with a parked SUV, but I wasn't fast enough, thanks to my recent C-section and excess baby weight. The cart smacked right into the SUV. Thankfully, the carrier remained attached, saving Quinn from a life-threatening brain injury. I grabbed the cart and surveyed the SUV while repeating, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry," to the now awake and shrieking Quinn. The SUV was already covered in dents and dings, so I decided that one more would go unnoticed. We fled the scene.
By the time we got home, Quinn's wailing had de-escalated into plaintive sobs, and I figured she'd survive.
I wasn't so sure about me.
That day I realized I would never again move through life unencumbered by the presence or consideration of another person. Some days I've felt that I'll never get used to the pressure. But then there was the time Quinn was fascinated by the balloons for sale at the grocery store. Or the day we went for a walk in the woods and she was perfectly content just looking up at the sunlight filtering through the leaves. Moments like these make me know for sure that the joy and adventure are worth any burden.

Brands we love get special dispensations for bad behavior. Google and Apple are my biggest weaknesses, and I think many people interested in technology are the same. For the latest example, see Richard Alderman's post on the new iPhone, arguing that the supposed 50% price drop is actually a 40% increase when service charges are taken into account, and that this is false advertising. But he (and I) bought it anyway, because it is just that cool. (Disclaimer: I speak only for myself; Alderman I'm sure has better reasons.) Even Tim Wu is willing to tame his freewheeling ways for the love of a good iPhone.
If I had my druthers, the iPhone would allow a stylus as well as a finger, for greater writing accuracy. But then I've been using a tablet PC for several years now, and I like handwriting digital comments. The point is: deliver enough style and performance, and many customers will forgive you on price. The question is, will the lawyers?

AirAsia Could Be Bigger than SIA, Cathay Pacific: Fernandes
SINGAPORE ~ AirAsia, the budget carrier launched five years ago with two aircraft, says it could be bigger than Asian giants Singapore Airlines (SIA) and Cathay Pacific by next year.
The founder of the Malaysia-based airline, Tony Fernandes, was commenting after his airline signed contracts on Monday for another 50 medium-range Airbus A320 jets and options on 50 more.
"I'd imagine we'd be the largest airline in Asia by passenger size by 2013 or 2014," The Business Times quoted Fernandes as saying. "In fact by next year, we could be bigger than Singapore Airlines and Cathay Pacific in terms of passenger carriage."
Fernandes said in November that AirAsia expected to carry at least 16 million passengers in the financial year to June 2007, up from 9.31 million previously.
In October, Singapore Airlines reported that it flew a record nine million passengers during the first half of the 2006-2007 financial year.
If AirAsia surpasses SIA and Cathay Pacific in passenger numbers, "The only airlines bigger than us would be Qantas, two Japanese airlines and a Chinese airline," the Today newspaper quoted him as saying. He was referring to the Australian flag carrier as well as JAL, ANA and Air China.
Fernandes brought budget air travel to Southeast Asia with his short-haul, low-cost formula but last Friday he surprised the aviation industry by announcing a new budget airline for long-haul routes.
Fernandes said AirAsia X would take off in July with flights to Britain for as little as 9.99 ringgit, or less than US$3.
The airline will be operated by Malaysian carrier Fly Asian Express (FAX), also founded by Fernandes. It currently provides rural air services on Borneo island.
Fernandes said he expected AirAsia X to carry 500,000 passengers in its first year of operation, and was looking to acquire 20 new aircraft – either the Boeing 777-300 or Airbus A330-300, both of which are twin-aisle jets.
Singapore financial weekly The Edge quoted Fernandes this week as saying AirAsia X would help expedite his dream of creating the world's biggest airline group.
"Within the next seven years, I am convinced we will be the world's largest airline, with 50 million passengers a year," Fernandes was quoted as saying.
AirAsia has 50 planes, flying to Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam and the Philippines.Filed under:

IRS Rats Out White House
In interviews with House Oversight Committee investigators, Cincinnati IRS employees said that they believed that targeting of conservative groups came from Washington, not from a couple of "rogue agents. "
Sunday the House Oversight Committee released partial transcripts of Oversight Committee investigators' interviews with unnamed Cincinnati IRS employees, which contradicts the line coming from the White House.
"It's impossible," an IRS employee responded to an investigator's question about the allegations that the targeting of conservative groups was due to "two 'rogue agents." "As an agent we are controlled by many, many people. We have to submit many, many reports. So the chance of two agents being rogue and doing things like that could never happen."
Answering a question about the employee's reaction to news reports that the targeting was contained in Cincinnati and the fault of the Cincinnati office, the employee said that Washington has been throwing them under the bus.
"Well, it's hard to answer the question because in my mind I still hear people saying we were low‑level employees, so we were lower than dirt, according to people in D.C. So, take it for what it is," a Cincinnati IRS employee said. "They were basically throwing us underneath the bus."
The employee further noted that it was a supervisor who requested they do a search for tea party and similar applications in March of 2010.
"Did [your supervisor] give you any indication of the need for the search, any more context?" an investigator asked.
"He told me that Washington, D.C., wanted some cases," the employee responded, going on to answer that by April 2010 the group was handling fewer than 40 cases and had sent seven cases to Washington, D.C.
When asked for the reason behind the request that cases be sent to Washington, D.C. the employee responded, "He said Washington, D.C. wanted seven. Because at one point I believe I heard they were thinking 10, but it came down to seven. I said okay, seven."
The employee explained that the Cincinnati office sent the first seven cases that had come into the system.
The employee further noted that Washington, D.C. had additionally requested the applications or parts of the applications for two specific groups.
Investigator: "But just to be clear, she told you the specific names of these applicants."
IRS employee: "Yes."
Investigator: "And she told you that Washington, D.C. had requested these two specific applications be sent to D.C."
IRS employee: "Yes, or parts of them."
According to the partial transcript, the employee noted that this was an unusual request.

REM helps young journalists do difficult, sometimes dangerous, jobs. Plane tickets. Experienced mentoring. Finding stories that need to be told and crucially, connecting our reporters to the most prestigious media outlets. Whatever we can give, we give.
REM uncovers the stories that need to be seen, heard, and read around the world. In places like the New York Times, The Economist, NPR, and their equivalents around the world.
As a non-profit, tax laws require that much of our funding comes from people like you – individuals who care about the world beyond our borders. When you give any amount to REM, you make it possible for REM to retain our non profit status. That means more of your donation goes toward reporting REM stories which are so very much needed in our increasingly interconnected world.
Every dollar goes towards supporting young international journalists. Every story is different, so here are some specifics of what your donation can mean.
Join us in telling the world's stories.
Help support the technology needed for field reporting.
Help pay for the studio cost of producing an REM documentary.
Help expand Round Earth's Social Media Programming.
Help pay the journalist for a story when the media outlet cannot afford it.
Help cover the cost for a veteran journalist to mentor and edit the work of REM's journalists.
Help make it possible to send a Round Earth reporting team to cover untold stories of hope and progress in a developing country.
"There is no other news organization that does this. Journalists reporting collectively from different countries to cover every angle of an unfolding story. Few news organizations even have reporters in these countries...I believe Round Earth's unique reporting model is the way of the future."
Beverely Abel, an award-winning producer for NPR and the BBC
"It's ironic that as we become more and more intertwined with people around the world, we're getting less and less news from those places. Round Earth is doing powerful work…We need to see more of it."
Award-winning journalist Marlon Bishop.
"After observing Round Earth's program in Morocco, and reading stories in the New York Times and other national/international media, I'd say the results have been exceptional. Their ultimate success rests in having teachers and mentors like Mary Stucky and her team of veteran journalists, who bring well-honed reportorial skills and deeply held professional values to the task of training and guiding the next generation of global journalists."
Nancy Fushan, foundation consultant and former program officer.
"I believe Round Earth's unique reporting model is the way of the future. U.S. and [in-country] journalists are mentored by veterans in the field and share their different perspectives with each other in an egalitarian working relationship. This work builds understanding…for readers and listeners in both countries."

The Virginia Coalition for Open Government recently reviewed how many clicks it takes for a citizen to get to the budget on his or her locality's website. It seems few make the budget available on just one click. In Norfolk, for example, it takes 5.
But that's not all that VCOG looked at. They tried to figure out "how useful the material at the end of the path was." Once there, each of Virginia's 134 localities were graded. Eighteen localities earned an A or A-, while 26 received an F, including 15 who had no budget data at all.
The entire list is below.

|The worst part is that he only has $5 in his account
I am going through the Shadowrun Quick Start rules. I have never been able to grasp the rules of this game, and I have played probably 20 sessions of it under a guy who knew the rules extremely well (he had an enemy sniper shoot an invisible catwoman by enhanced sense of smell... so maybe he didn't know the rules all that well, come to think of it).
The adventure in this Shadowrun book is "Food Fight". This is the same intro adventure as in previous editions. How lazy is that? Why do RPG companies keep making the same adventure over and over?
|Keep on the NostalgiaLands
Why is this happening? I didn't like Keep on the Borderlands the first time, and even if I did, I don't need it again and again. If I liked it that much I could just convert it!
It seems like there haven't been any new, hailed "classic" adventures since AD&D first edition. Is it because those adventures are that good that nobody can touch them? Or is it more of a fact that many of us played them and look back on them fondly? If it is the latter, then why don't younger players look back on more modern adventures in the same way?
The "classics", aside from the aforementioned Keep on The Borderlands, seem to be:
|Do we still need to respect spoilers for this?
The Village of Hommlet: The precursor to the Temple of Elemental Evil. It has a statted-out village full of people with no names and a dungeon of monsters led by a dude named Lareth the Beautiful.
The Temple of Elemental Evil: I ran this a few years ago and it was a major disappointment. There are a few cool rooms and I liked Nulb, but wow was this a drag. Zuggtmoy's level is cool, but good luck staying awake trying to get there.
|Lolth gets +5 when giving neck rubs
Those are the big ones, right? You could also include adventures like the Isle of Dread and Ravenloft, or maybe even the Dragonlance series (though the novels seemed much more popular than the adventures).
Since that time - the early 80's - are you telling me there haven't been any published adventures that have come close to those in quality?
It really bothers me when Wizards of the Coast decides to re-issue an old adventure rather than create something new. Outside of Dungeon magazine, they didn't get to make too many published adventures in 4th edition. They had the HPE adventure path, they made Revenge of the Giants (which is definitely an homage to the original GDQ series), Tomb of Horrors (again), and their DM Rewards adventures were re-makes of stuff like The Tomb of Horrors (again, again!) and The Village of Hommlett.
|Yes, let's all knit for him
There are lots of great, new, original adventures out there that don't get any recognition. I listed some in my Best Adventures of All Time blog posts. But there's plenty of others out there.
Lamentations of the Flame Princess has put out three of the best adventures I've run in many years: The God That Crawls, F*** for Satan and Doom Cave of the Crystal-Headed Children. I know that Lamentations gets too wacky for some people, but that stuff can easily be rubbed out with minimal effort.
Dungeon Crawl Classics has Intrigue at the Court of Chaos, The One Who Watches From Below, and I'd even include Elzemon and the Blood-Drinking Box.
I feel like we fans need to help each other out. We should wade through the material out there and sing the praises of stuff that is really good. It bothers me to think that the new classics are being made to little or no fanfare, and that these clever and creative authors aren't getting the recognition (or money) they deserve. They are making our games that much better, and I don't think there are too many of us DMs who would balk at buying a $10 PDF of a modern classic that our players will remember and talk about for years to come.
I will do my part to try and alert you to the good stuff that I come across. Please feel free to let me know of stuff worth getting.
This is one of the reasons I like Bryce Lynch's blog so much. He reads all these things that I've never even heard of and reviews them. He also is going through old Dungeon Magazines, reading some of the adventures that I couldn't get through as a kid (wall of text and a lack of an adventure synopsis was often too much for a young me).
A re-make once in awhile is OK. Using classic NPCs and locations in modern adventures is awesome. But I really think it is time for the adventures made after 1985 to get the recognition that they deserve.

A Port Elizabeth cyclist was left battered and bleeding on the side of the road after he was ambushed, hit over the head with a plank and robbed at the weekend.
The early morning attack, on Saturday at about 5am, took place when businessman Graham Munton, 57, was cycling on Heugh Road towards 6th Avenue in Walmer.
He was cycling from his home in Lovemore Heights.
Munton, who owns GD Engineering, is an avid cyclist and Iroman competitor who has been cycling in Bay for several years.
Since early last year there have been a string of attacks on cyclists along Marine Drive – all within several kilometres of each other.
Munton was taken to St Georges Hospital where he received seven stitches to his head.
He was also treated for a broken collarbone and two cracked ribs.
Police spokesman Captain Johan Rheeder said that the matter was under investigation.

Back when I was first pregnant blogging wasn't really a popular thing & Twitter was in its infancy. However I've always loved writing a drafted mini posts as an outlet which never saw the light of day as I had no forum. I've decided to dust some of them off and share.
These posts are from my early motherhood days and I hope they might help, humour or connect with some mums out there.
Working Mum's Diary
originally from February 2008
By Emma Jones
1st January – Last day off!!! I can't believe it back to work tomorrow I feel ridiculously nervous, its silly really I know everyone there and my job hasn't really changed but am starting to wish I didn't need to go back. Its only 3 days a week though so even if its horrible it will soon be the weekend again. I'm obviously worried about Lily too will she be ok at nursery 8.30 to 5.30 is long day for her. Argh!!!
2nd January – 1st day back felt awful this morning really bad stomach so couldn't finish my breakfast. Stuart came with us this morning, which I'm very grateful for as I burst into tears at the nursery so he had to shoo me out the door. Cried most of the way to work with Stuart saying its ok over and over again. I think its different for men he's used to leaving her at home with me and going to work whereas I'm more worried as it's the longest she's every been with people she doesn't know. Work actually wasn't that bad at all and it was nice to see everybody. I called the nursery twice to check Lily was ok but just felt like I was being a bit of pain rather than reassured. The nursery staff said it wasn't a problem and I could ring every couple of hours if I wanted but I still felt a bit awkward. I mean at the end of the day they are strangers and I've already cried in front of them. At home time they said she'd had a good day but bless her she was exhausted and was in bed by 6.30pm. Also I'm feeling pretty ropey so perhaps not just nerves after all.
3rd January – Got to work and nursery ok Lily cried when I left her so I felt awful but was determined not to cy. Work ok but as the day wore on I felt more and more ill. Got though the day and only called the nursery once. In the evening Lily was in bed by 6.30 again and me not long behind her wrapped up by 7.30. Luckily don't work Fridays so won't have to struggle into work.
8th to 10th January – Lily cries when I leave her every morning and its horrible walking out of the room. Work still going ok and feel much better this week. It's quite nice to use your brain and have some adult conversation. I'm amazed how much I can remember thought I'd be having to ask a million questions so that helps. Lily been eating better this week but still not sleeping very well at nursery so comes home knackered but then so am I at the moment so its quite nice as get her ready for bed and then can relax for a little while. Think 3 full days is a good balance anymore and I think I'd find it hard to balance work, Lily and the housework. Its not too bad though as I take her in the mornings and Stuart picks her up most days.
15th – 17th January – Lily still cried every morning but the staff said it's only for about 5 minutes and then she's fine. Lily got her first party invitation this week too its so sweet she's making proper little friends. She's been eating really well at nursery this week but still not sleeping they said she'll go to sleep but the slightest noise and she's up I think she's too nosey bless her. She's also got terrible nappy rash this week so a trip to the doctors Friday.
20th January – Lily's first birthday. Hectic and lovely had loads of people popping in all day and did some nibbles and drink. Glad not at work Mondays as could do with the rest now. ;0)
22nd – 24th January – Lily is really teething so feel a bit bad leaving her a nursery but the staff are brilliant and she's been having calpol. They said she's really settling in and will just shuffle off and find a toy to play with and is showing more interest in the other babies. Had a bumped head this week so had to sign the accident back. Thursday night when we'd all got home from nursery she pulled herself up against the stair gate for the first time. I think nursery is actually helping her development.
27th January – Lily awake and went in her room and she was standing in her cot. She's growing up. Had to get Stuart to lower the base as worried she'd topple over now.
29th – 31st January – January over we've done it managed 5 weeks. January really is a long month. We have both settled in I think. Lily got a very sore bum again so anther drip to the doctors for an antibiotic cream. I think I've figured it out though. She has weetabix for breakfast sometimes at nursery and I think its upsets her little bum, will need to mention it to them. She's still crying in the mornings but its only when she realises I'm going and they said its literally just for a few minutes now.
5th – 8th February – Lily did a sponge painting today (Tuesday) bless her, its very neat so think the staff did more than Lily. It's on the notice board in the kitchen. Wednesday she came home with a temperature and very drowsy another little girl went home ill today, the staff said it only came on late afternoon. Thursday she seemed a bit brighter so took her in with calpol. I spent the whole day worried the nursery would call and I'd have to leave work. Picked her up about 5 and poor little thing all hot and bothered they said she'd been ok till about 2. At least we've made it through the week and she can be ill tomorrow and won't have to worry about work.
Now my kids are 5 & 8 & its a very different working mums diary. Might have to write another version.
Have a good week everyone.

Been a while since I pointed at anything, so let's have some videos!
I am a woman of odd enthusiasms, as are, I imagine, many of my readers. Looking at the channels I subscribe to on YouTube or the Instagrams I follow would be pretty instructive to those trying to figure me out – just, um, don't read too much into my Tumblr, I'm really not *that* into gay porn.
I think the entire internet just gave me this face:
While Instagram for me is mostly pretty things and food, however, I actually use my YouTube for some practical purposes, including getting the hell to sleep. I follow a number of meditation music channels and ASMR-related channels to help my anxiety and help me sleep, so they make up a significant chunk of what you'd see on my feed. I also have several art-related folk I follow, particularly devoted to art journaling and the like, and remarkably few planner-related bloggers, although I used to follow a bunch. A lot of planner-related channels pay way more attention to things like dieting than I really want to hear about, not to mention some of the ones I used to really enjoy have stopped updating (the eternal YouTube struggle).
Here then are some of my favorite YouTube channels, in no particular order. I'm not listing some of the more obvious ones, like Maru – I wanted to point out YouTubers you might not have heard of.
ASMR Rooms
This channel is brilliant – the creator has built a variety of "rooms" that are basically soundscapes, combining nature sounds, ambient sounds, occasionally voices, and the background noise of a particular location. In this example she's captured the Ravenclaw Common Room at Hogwarts, but she's done rooms from Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, The Hobbit, and others. They're all incredibly soothing and evocative.
Peaceful Cuisine
Another ASMR-ish sort of channel, this one combines lovely cooking noises with vegan recipes. There are usually two versions of each recipe, one with music and one just with the cooking sounds so you can listen as you watch. I've always found cooking sounds – like dicing, pouring, and stirring – really soothing, and the videos are beautifully shot. The creator is Japanese and occasionally appears on camera but the emphasis is always on the food and the process of prep and cooking.
YellowBrick Cinema – Relaxing Music
A prolific channel for meditation and relaxation music. They post at least once a day. Some of their posts are classical music, some acoustic, some ambient, and they range from 15 minutes to 6 hours in length. There are also videos meant to help soothe babies to sleep, and music for reiki and healing practices.
Vicky Papaioannou
Vicky is one of my favorite art/craft YouTubers, partly because of her wonderful Greek accent, partly because I enjoy the bright exuberance of her style, and partly because her cat Ginger makes periodic appearances walking around on her work table. I'm not into making handmade cards, but I enjoy watching her try new techniques and show off new supplies, and her art journals are a totally different style from what I originally found online. It's obvious how much she loves doing what she does.
Yoga With Adriene
Adriene is from right here in ATX, which was my impetus for clicking on her "beginners' yoga" video when I was tooling around YouTube looking for videos to start playing with. I loved her almost immediately – her teaching style is a good combination of woo-woo and pragmatic, asking students to meet themselves where they are and "find what feels good."
She's definitely not a plus-sized yogini, and there are a couple of weight loss videos on her channel, but she typically doesn't bring up that sort of thing unless that's the subject of the video. Since that's not what I'm there for, I just steer clear of those and stick with what inspires me. She has videos that focus on all sorts of needs, from yoga for your back and shoulders, to yoga for swimmers or cyclists, yoga for migraines, anger management, yoga for those in wheelchairs, you name it. There are also meditations and some videos that focus on getting deeper into a particular pose.
I also love her dog Benji. You know you're watching an Austin yoga video when the teacher's dog is in it.
Molly Roberts: HerSpeak
A relative newcomer to my lineup, I happened across Molly when looking for meditations, and I don't know if it's her voice, her enthusiasm, or just her flat out adorableness, but I was hooked. I'm planning to go back to the beginning of her channel and watch anything that sounds appealing.
Molly's a Pagan YouTuber, and does videos on magick, ritual, and some of my favorite subjects: BoS/Grimoirekeeping and altar building. To be perfectly honest it had never occurred to me to look for BoS tours and altar show-and-tell the way I've watched planner-walkthrough videos, and how could I have been so blind?!? Those were always some of my favorite aspects of the Craft, and if I had a remotely video-friendly bone in my body I'd do a walkthrough of my old, hand-drawn BoS just to show how much work and love went into it way back when.
Anyway, thanks to Molly I have a whole new YouTube rabbit hole to fall down, and I'm looking forward to it. But in the meantime I just love listening to her talk (her voice is an ASMR trigger at times, which only makes it that much more awesome) and love her ideas. Not to mention she combines magick with something else I love hearing about: Bullet Journaling.
Incidentally, do you have any mystical or spiritual YouTubers you love? Pretty much any tradition, as long as it's non-conservative. I'm a soul-slut, as you know. What I'd really love to see are more Pagan planners, bullet journalers, or BoS-keepers. Recommend away in comments, on Facebook, or Twitter.Become my patron for exclusive online content and read new stories before anyone else!

I encountered (after applying the patch!) were easy to fix as they were missing folder (from svn) issues when a changeset included a branch or merge operation.
Simply creating and committing the missing folder allowed the migration to continue.

With this article, we at CDFreaks
would like to give you some insight and a first look regarding the Labelflash™
technique. We are also going to take a look at the FujiFilm Labelflash™ media. In addition, we will be showing you some writing results done with this media by using a Labelflash™ capable DVD-Writer '" the NEC ND-4551A
The following text is taken from a press-release:
19. October 2005, Yamaha Corporation and Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd. announced the Labelflash™ technology, a new technology that advances the ability to burn high quality images directly into a specialized dye layer on the disc labeling side using laser for data recording. This technology allows consumers to personalize and customize their DVDs with photos, text and graphics, replacing traditional sticker and marker labeling.
Labelflash™ technology allows a consumer to burn pictures and/or write titles on the label side of the DVD discs specially developed for the Labelflash™ system with DVD writers with Labelflash™ function. There is no need for printers and consumables for printing. To obtain high resolution and contrast pictures in blue and silver color, a consumer only needs to turn the disc upside down and insert it into the drive again after recording data. The unique technology burns the image 0.6mm deep into the media in as little as five minutes, creating a more stable and permanent image than traditional printable media that uses the top layer of a disc for labeling. If this system is applied to DVD set-top recorders, a consumer will also be able to burn program titles and thumbnail images more easily.
The technology marries the unique Yamaha DiscT@2 ('Tattoo") technology for picture burning on CD-R data side with the advanced photochemical expertise of Fuji Photo Film, which is a leading company in dye technologies for optical media.
Fujifilm and Yamaha are contacting many major DVD drive, DVD set-top recorder and DVD disc manufactures to encourage them to adopt this system.
About Labelflash(TH) Technology:
- Customize the label side of your DVDs with the existing 'data recording laser."
Labelflash™ system burns pictures directly into a special layer added to the non-data, or label, side of a DVD disc and eliminates the need for special printers, labels or pens.
- High quality images on the disc label side
Labelflash™ utilizes existing recording laser in standard DVD-writers to burn a high contrast and resolution image by changing the blue dye color to colorless. Consumer can choose picture-burning time from 5 min. to 20 min. in accordance with their quality needs.
- Stable against vibration while burning pictures
Labelflash™ utilizes newly developed laser, pick up and rotation control, and high-speed signal processing system of image data. And newly developed Labelflash™ DVD disc structure realizes the optimal focusing setting because the picture-burning layer at 0.6mm deep into the media is the same depth as the data recording layer on the data side.
- Longlasting titles and pictures on DVDs
- Images 'burned" are more durable and stronger against scratches than those printed by printer and others because images are protected by the polycarbonate layer.
- Labelflash™ system can avoid troubles traditional sticker labeling may have, such as unstable rotation due to weight unbalance and damage to the drive by the possible peeling off of the sticker while operation.

Around 1 month later (November 2005) '" NEC Germany released the following press release:
NEC launches the world's first DVD burners with Labelflash™ technology. The PC drives will be available from December onwards. Labelflash™ burns custom motifs, lettering or images onto the top side of DVD blanks. It puts very few restrictions on creativity and design.
For the first time NEC`s wide range of new drives will not only support DVD +R(W) and DVD-R(W) but also DVD-RAM.
Labelflash™ '" faster labelling of self-burned DVDs
Innovative Labelflash™ technology simplifies the labelling of self-burned DVDs '" e.g. for archiving '" and also enables creative DVD design. It eliminates the need for complex adhesive labelling systems and considerably enhances the durability of the media because, especially in the case of DVD blanks, the paper label can make the medium unreadable.
Labelflash™ delivers high image quality because it enables 256 brightness shades. The labelling process takes only around seven minutes to produce excellent quality results. One special feature is that both the top side and the data side of the blank can be labelled '" provided that there is enough available memory. Labelflash™ can be used for blanks with a writable Labelflash™ top surface. On these media, the labelled top surface is covered by 0.6 millimetre-thick, robust protect layer which ensures that even labels that are exposed to light are extremely durable.
Multi drives with DVD-RAM '" all formats in one
For the first time NEC`s wide range of new drives will not only support DVD +R(W) and DVD-R(W) but also DVD-RAM.
NEC's ND-4551A burner is a genuine multitalent: DVD minus and DVD plus media are written at up to 16x DVD speed, while rewritable (DVD +RW) and double-layer DVDs (DVD +R9) are written at up to 8x DVD speed. DVD-RW and DVD-R DL are processed at 6x speed. 5x speed applies for DVD-RAMs. As a read drive, the burner delivers 16x DVD, 5x DVD RAM and 48x CD speed. NEC will also be marketing a lower cost model without Labelflash™, the ND-4550A, which has the same write and read speeds as the ND-4551A.
The two new DVD burners ND-3551A (with Labelflash™) and ND-3550A (without Labelflash™) are also available in two further versions which do not support DVD-RAM.

A Sri Lankan Tamil woman is facing several charges after police seized 42 forged credit cards from inside her home earlier this week.
According to investigators, a woman frequently went to various TTC collector booths throughout the city. At the booths, she would purchase multiple rolls of tokens with a credit card.
Police allege the credit cards being used were encoded with stolen credit card data.
The woman is also accused of buying pre-paid gift cards using forged credit cards.
A police investigation led to a search warrant being executed at a residence.
Police said 42 forged credit cards along with equipment capable of encoding cards were found. On Wednesday, a suspect identified as 25-year-old Niruba Jegatheeswara was arrested by police.
Jegatheeswara, an Ajax resident, is now facing six charges including 14 counts of unauthorized possession of credit card data, fraud over $5,000 and 14 counts of possession of credit card obtained by crime. None of the charges have been proven in court.
Police said the investigation is still ongoing as officers are seeking assistance from anyone, especially retail operators, who may have sold any pre-paid gift cards to the suspect.

For most of us, there are places you love and foods you just can't get enough of. For me, it's the beach/ocean and seafood. Lots of seafood. For many those places and foods at just the right time can almost be like a religious experience. For me, it's a frame of mind. It always has been. An out of the way beach side seafood shack at sunset with a bottle of wine and good company to share it with is about as close to heaven as one could get and not actually be there. In lieu of a beach side treat, I'll at least take the seafood whenever I can get it and as often as I can.
Today, i was browsing one of my favorite magazines online, Coastal Living, and came across some cool shrimp recipes I thought I would share with other seafood lovers. Some of them look pretty incredible. But then, how could they not. After all, we're talking about seafood.....right?

Examining Religion and Belief: Muslims
This book is full of practical and ready-to-use resources for the secondary RE classroom. Its focus is on providing original source material and contemporary voices, while recognising and identifying diversity of views, controversies and complexity.
The title indicates something of the approach: we are examining religion and belief by focusing on Muslims rather than on the religion of Islam. The emphasis is on lived faith and practice, with an eye on requirements for examination RS but not solely driven by them. The book includes case studies on Islamic art and texts; Muslim scholars answer questions on pacifism, justice and jihad; there is an infographic presenting some kay data from the UK and beyond; one teaching unit explores the rituals and significance of Hajj for 11-14s, and for 14-16s the focus is on Muslim beliefs about life after death.
This kind of RE aims to enable personal thinking as well as develop religious literacy.
From September 2017 we will be adding each of the curriculum bookse-resources to this page, for NATREmembers to access as and when each publication is published.

Eaton Puts Busbars on top for xEnergy LV Switchboards
- Details
- Published: Tuesday, 03 June 2014 10:43
Power management company Eaton has introduced a new Busbar Top option for its versatile xEnergy range of modular low-voltage switchboards.
This option allows the main busbars to run across the top of the switchboard beneath the top cover plate, which means that they can be easily accessed without the need to remove equipment even if, for example, the switchboard is mounted against a wall.
A key feature of the Busbar Top option is a new patented open-frame structure that allows the position of the busbar mounting rails to be freely selected. With this system, it is possible to mount up to a maximum 12 30/10 copper busbars with a total current rating of 4,000 A. As the busbars are readily accessible at all times, it is easy to make connections to them, which significantly reduces the time needed for installation.
"Busbar Top is a very useful option for switchgear designers," said Bernhard Gegenbauer, Product Line Manager at Eaton, "as it provides an excellent solution for applications where access to the equipment after installation is restricted. Since the busbars are so easy to inspect, it is also an ideal choice for critical applications where preventative assessment needs to be carried out regularly."
In the development of the new xEnergy Busbar Top system, Eaton has taken care to ensure complete compatibility of the new components with the well proven and widely used standard xEnergy system, which features conventional rear-mounted busbars. Both arrangements are highly modular, and are easy to extend to meet growth in the user's requirements.
In line with other xEnergy switchboards, the new xEnergy Busbar Top versions provide exceptionally versatile mounting facilities for incoming and outgoing circuit breakers and for other equipment. Internal separation can be configured for Form 4b up to type 7, and provision is made for mounting two circuit breakers side-by-side in a single compartment. Incoming compartments have extensive provision for metering and up to four current transformers (CTs) can be fitted per phase.
xEnergy switchboards have been tested to demonstrate full compliance with the requirements of IEC/EN 61439. Busbar Top versions can be configured as either three- or four-pole assemblies with ratings from 630 A to 4,000 A and with busbar transient current (ICW) ratings up to 105 kA for one second or 65 kA for three seconds.

Depression affects everyones life at sometime or another. Depression comes in a wide variety of forms, from mild unhappiness to a chemical imbalance in the mind. There are many different symptoms that reveal a persons problem with depression. If left untreated, depression may continue to develop into a serious illness or even death. Depression is a psychological illness, much like bulimia or anorexia. It affects the mind as much as it does the body.
Depression is directly related to many other disabilities: eating disorders, low energy levels, and social difficulties. Scientists have found that depression is the result of imbalances in the way the brain metabolizes chemicals called neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters are substances that allow the brain cells to communicate with each other. Serotonin and norepinephrine are the two most common forms of neurotransmitters.
Too little serotonin mat cause many symptoms of depression including irritability, sleep loss, and anxiety. Too little norepinephrine may be responsible for fatigue and a sense of hopelessness. A persons genetic structure, environment, and personality are all factors that affect the balance of these chemicals. Depression, at one time or another, affects every living human being. It affects children from the age of six to the elderly.
It affects the low class poor to the high-class rich. Everyone is vulnerable to the destruction of depression. Five percent of all adolescents and young adults, ages fifteen to twenty-four, experience a serious level of depression. Women are generally the most commonly affected among young people. A depressed teen is more likely to get into various forms of trouble such as rebellion, truancy, academic problems, sexual promiscuity, and running away. The prevalence of depression among children and students with learning or behavior problems also tend to be higher than that of the general population.
It affects the most popular students and the usually quiet ones. No student is totally free from the possibility of becoming depressed. Depression comes in an extremely wide range of forms, some of which are: psychological (major) depression, clinical depression, and manic-depression (bipolar disorder). Each form of depression acts in its own way and has its own symptoms and treatments. Every type of depression, if left untreated, could lead to an attempted suicide or death. The most common form of depression among young adults is psychological (major) depression, but it is also the easiest form of depression to treat.
Psychological depression is commonly caused by some tragic or disturbing life experience and may last for a few months to many years. Nevertheless it should be caught early and treated. Symptoms of this form of depression include: a persistent sad or empty mood irritability or anger alcohol or drug abuse loss of confidence disturbed sleeping patterns restlessness headaches or stomachaches agitation fatigue or loss of energy social withdrawal feelings of helplessness guilt large weight loss or gain excessive crying difficulty concentrating or remembering poor self-esteem and the most serious of all, thoughts of suicide Most depressed individuals feel there is no way to end the misery and torture of depression other than by committing suicide. Depression is most commonly the sole cause for suicide among people today.
It is the third largest killer among adolescents and younger adults. Since 1993 suicide rates among adolescents has been on a steady increased. Fifteen percent of all depressed cases will end in suicide. If depression victims do not get or attempt to seek help, chances are they may end up solving the problem themselves through suicide.
Many studies have been taken over recovering depression victims. Fortunately, none of them show any signs of side affects or scars to the personality as a result of an experience with depression. No signs of a loss in self-confidence or becoming socially withdrawn occurred within the case studies. Despite long periods of depression, patients continued to recover from major depressive problems. Every type of depression can be treat with some form of medical help, wither it be medication or psychological treatment. Anything from talking to a friend to writing your feelings in a journal can be enough to get through some cases of depression.
For major or serious cases of depression professional help is strongly advised. It is important that the student is informed of all the symptoms and causes of depression so that they can better understand the illness and aid in the treatment process themselves. What can educators do to help depressed students? The primary role of all school personnel is to detect the signs of depression and potential suicide. If symptoms are suspected the teacher should make immediate referrals to the counselor of the school, notify parents, secure assistance from school and community resources, and assist as a member of the support team in follow-up activity after a suicide threat or attempt. Regular discussions with students should stress the individuals and agencies that are available to help students and the steps they can take in seeking help for themselves, friends, or their families.
Schools are recommended to provided suicidal students with programs that concentrate on individual assistance. An individualized education program (IEP) should be develop and include goals and objectives that emphasize support and encouragement rather than punishment. Alleviation of risk factors should also be included in the students IEP. Bibliography Bower, Bruce. Depression Fails to Scar Personality. Science News 9 November 1996: p. 294.

Solution Preview
The cost of health care in the United States is due to a variety of issues. Unemployment; increase in uninsured, lack of services or care and rising costs are just a few of the reasons for the present health care problems.
Companies that used to provide good health care are either going out of business or cutting back on what they offer, due to their own economic survival. This, therefore, affects important prevention services and other treatment early in the development of a condition. Often, when chronic issues are not given attention early, they worsen, therefore, making the costs higher later.
Underserved areas like rural, or remote regions, like on Indian reservations, often lack quality service providers or are unable to fill positions and provide necessary resources to help with quality health ...
