I liked this inn. Beautiful spaces, beautiful grounds, friendly and helpful staff. Really, the only way to get here is by car. But if you didn't bring your own car, there isn't much to do at the inn.

PHOTOS: Maryland Live! Casino Unveils 1,043 New Slot Machines
Throngs of people crowded into Maryland Live! casino Wednesday.
Maryland Live! at Arundel Mills is now the third largest casino in the United States, based on the number of slot machines.
On Wednesday, the Maryland Lottery and Maryland Live!'s developers unveiled 1,043 new slot machines at the Hanover casino, bringing its total to 4,750 machines.
The two biggest casinos in the nation are both in Connecticut: Foxwoods with 7,000 machines and Mohegan Sun with more than 6,400.
The casino in Anne Arundel County opened June 7. Since then, the entertainment facility has added The Cheesecake Factory restaurant and Rams Head Center Stage.
In addition to celebrating the new slot machines, a Sept. 12 media event highlighting completion of the casino's second phase of development featured the grand opening of the main entrance for Maryland Live!—near Modell's Sporting Goods. Previously, it had been under construction.
Still to come is The Prime Rib, which casino officials said would be open in the next few weeks.

These pictures mirror my experience at this casino. Everyone there with a blank or bored expression. Many mindlessly locked into staring at the screens.
It's kind of depressing.

Oh the media is making this big news. Here is a news story: I live 7 minutes from there and I will never enter MD LIve, and now I don't shop at Staples, Safeway, Micheal's, Best Buy,Pet Smart, Books a million, FYE, either. I drive 15 minutes longer and shop in Ellicott City and Columbia. I like to gamble and will be in Vegas at Monte Carlo for the next 3 days. I just don't like things stuck everywhere with no thought to getting in and out. That is what Arundel Mills has evolved to, and it is only going to get worse. There is no way to make it better unless of course Cornish makes so much money he buys out the Mall, knocks it down and builds an even bigger Casino.

Jonathan I. Silverberg, MD, PhD, MPH
Dr. Silverberg is from the Department of Dermatology, St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center, New York, New York.
Dr. Silverberg reports no conflicts of interest in relation to this post.
A May 4, 2012, Wall Street Journal (WSJ) article discussed the increased usage of observational studies in clinical research despite being prone to methodological and statistical biases and possibly flawed results. Observational studies are commonly used to study associations between various exposures, such as environmental risk factors or treatment, and disease outcomes. Observational studies differ from prospectively controlled studies in that participants are assigned to an exposure or treatment group that is not controlled in the study. Typically, data are retrospectively collected from sources ranging from small single-site chart reviews to international epidemiologic databases and comprehensive health management organization cohorts. The WSJ article featured 2 studies from 2010: one published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (2010;304:657-663) and the other in the British Medical Journal (BMJ)(2010;341:C4444) on the use of osteoporosis drugs and risk for esophageal cancer. The studies found entirely conflicting results despite being performed on the exact same database.

Dublin is a fascinating European capital with a wealth of things to see and do. A day spent sightseeing will turn up more attractions than we could ever put down on one list, but here are some of our favourites.
The Custom House
The Custom House Quay, Dublin 1, Dublin
The Custom House, designed by the renowned James Gandon, was completed in 1791 and is one of Dublin's finest heritage buildings. It has played a unique role in Dublin's social, economic and political history over the past 200 years.
The Visitor Centre is located in and around the Dome or Clocktower area, which contains the most important interior features to have survived the destruction of the building by fire in 1921, during the War of Independence.
The Centre includes a Gandon Museum with information and displays on his life and work in Ireland; the history of the Custom House itself, including the 1921 fire and subsequent restoration and on the many Government offices and important characters who have office in the building in the 200 years.
Dublin Writers Museum
18 Parnell Square, Dublin 1, Dublin
The Irish literary tradition is one of the most illustrious in the world, famous for four Nobel prize-winners and for many other writers of international renown. In 1991 the Dublin Writers Museum was opened to house a history and celebration of literary Dublin.
The Book of Kells
Trinity College, Dublin 2, Dublin
The Book of Kells contains a Latin text of the four gospels richly decorated by Irish monks around the year 800 AD. The greatest Irish work of art to survive from the Middle Ages, it has been in the library of Trinity College Dublin since the 1660s.
The 'Picturing the Word' exhibit will place it in its historical and cultural context and compares its images and techniques to those in contemporary metalwork, bone, slate, stone and enamels. Much of the exhibition is an analysis of its animal and human ornament.
Such images are persistent and repetitive, but their meaning is beyond most observers today. A section of the exhibition is concerned with the physical processes involved in the creation of the Book of Kells: the manufacture of the calfskin it was written on, and the writing materials and pigments used. The exhibition culminates with the display of the Book of Kells itself in a specially designed Treasury.
Old Jameson Distillery
Bow Street, Smithfield, Dublin 7, Dublin
The Old Jameson Distillery in Smithfield Village is in the heart of Old Dublin. Irish Whiskey can trace its history back to the 6th century.
It was established in 1780 by John Jameson and it's now one of Dublin's top attractions. It's almost like a tour of a working distillery as you can follow the fascinating craft of whiskey making through the different stages from grain intake to malting, mashing, fermentation, distillation, maturation and bottling.
The tour culminates in the Jameson Bar for a traditional Irish Whiskey tasting session. Other facilities include the Distillery Gift Shop on the ground floor and the 3rd Still Restaurant which overlooks the lobby.
Christ Church Cathedral
The Chapter House, Christ Church Place, Dublin 8, Dublin
Dating back to 1038, Christchurch Cathedral is located in the old medieval quarter of Dublin. It is the Church of Ireland Cathedral for the Diocese of Dublin and Glendalough and is situated at the end of Dame Street, overlooking the River Liffey.
The cathedral was founded by Dunan, the first bishop of Dublin, who erected a simple wooden church. After the coming of the Norman's to Ireland in 1169, the church was rebuilt in stone by Richard de Clare, Earl of Pembroke (known as 'Strongbow') for Laurence O'Toole, archbishop of Dublin.
Over the years Christ Church Cathedral has undergone numerous renovations and restorations making it the grand structure it is today.
Chester Beatty Library
The Clock Tower Building, Dublin Castle, Dame Street, Dublin 2, Dublin
Situated in the heart of the city centre, the Chester Beatty Library is an art museum and library which houses the great collection of manuscripts, miniature paintings, prints, drawings, rare books and some decorative arts assembled by Sir Alfred Chester Beatty (1875-1968). The Library's exhibitions open a window on the artistic treasures of the great cultures and religions of the world. Its rich collection from countries across Asia, the Middle East, North Africa and Europe offers visitors a visual feast. Chester Beatty Library was named Irish Museum of the Year in 2000 and was awarded the title European Museum of the Year in 2002, a coveted international accolade in the museum world.
Egyptian papyrus texts, beautifully illuminated copies of the Qur'an, the Bible, European medieval and renaissance manuscripts are among the highlights of the collection. Turkish and Persian miniatures and striking Buddhist paintings are also on display, as are Chinese dragon robes and Japanese woodblock prints. In its diversity, the collection captures much of the richness of human creative expression from about 2700 BC to the present day.
Croke Park
St. Joseph's Avenue, Dublin 3, Dublin
Boasting a capacity of 82,300, Croke Park Stadium is the home of Gaelic games and the headquarters of the GAA – the Gaelic Athletic Association. This impressive stadium is located to the north of Dublin city centre near the suburb of Drumcondra. It's one of the largest stadiums in Europe and is the place to be in Ireland on All-Ireland Final Day.
It can be found just off Jones Road in Dublin 3 and is within easy walking distance of O'Connell Street. It covers about 700,000 square feet and has three stands: the Cusack Stand, the Hogan Stand and the Davin Stand in the Canal End. There's also a standing area made up of Hill 16 and the Nally Terrace.
For a long time it was used exclusively for Gaelic games, however it has hosted a few concerts in the past, Muhammad Ali fought here in 1972 and it was used for the opening and closing ceremonies for the 2003 Special Olympics World Summer Games.
The year 2007 brought about the biggest change, when the closure of the Lansdowne Road stadium led to Croke Park opening its gates to both rugby and soccer, with all home games being played there.
The Spire
Dublin 1, Dublin
The Spire in Dublin points skyward over the historic Irish capital like an enormous needle. It was built at a cost of 4 million euro and is the focal point of a project aimed at rejuvenating the O'Connell Street district, Dublin's traditional shopping and cultural hub.
Officially titled The Spire, though another consideration was The Brian Boru Spire, the monument has gained plenty of more colourful names by locals. Some of the cleaner examples include 'The Spike', 'The Spire in the Mire', 'The Stiletto in the Ghetto', 'The Eyeful Tower', 'The Nail in the Pale', and 'The Pin in the Bin'. The name in Irish is 'An Tur Solais' which translates as The Spire of Light in English.
The monument was designed by Ian Ritchie Architects of London, which won a competition to replace Nelson's Pillar, which was a 19th century memorial to the British Admiral, but was destroyed in 1966 by the IRA.
There were 130 tonnes of hot roll stainless steel to create the Spire. The Spire tapers from a 3-metre diameter at the base just 15 centimetres in diameter at the tip that houses a powerful light.
The Irish Museum of Modern Art
Royal Hospital, Kilmainham, Dublin 8, Dublin
The Irish Museum of Modern Art is one of the most exciting developments in the Irish arts world. The museum presents, through its permanent collection and temporary programmes, international and Irish art of the 20th century with associated educational and community.
Performance, theatre and music are included in its work, with particular emphasis on the overlap between the visual and performing arts.
The Royal Hospital Kilmainham, the finest 17th-century building in Ireland, was built in 1684 as a home for retired soldiers and continued in that use for almost 250 years. The style is based on Les Invalides in Paris with a formal facade and large elegant courtyard. The RHK was restored by the Government in 1968 and needed only minimum alterations to accommodate the work of the museum.
The building has an excellent coffee shop and comprehensive banqueting, conference and catering facilities.
Saint Stephens Green
Saint Stephens Green, Dublin 2, Dublin
Probably Ireland's best known Victorian public park and one of the oldest public parks in Ireland, the 9-hectare Saint Stephen's Green is a sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of the city's streets. With tree lined walks, shrubberies, colourful flower beds, herbaceous borders, rockeries, an ornamental lake, and a garden for the visually impaired, it is a soothing oasis.
The bandstand is a well-known feature in this park. Lunchtime concerts are performed during the summer months.

Residential Requirements
Residential Requirements for Hybrid Programs
Although you may complete most of your courses through distance learning, all our online graduate degree programs have residential requirements. Residential requirements are academic requirements, and their completion is important for your successful academic progress as well as transformational learning.
Residential requirements vary by program to accommodate the learning outcomes associated with specific degrees. Where, how often, and when residential experiences occur also varies by program.
Residential Orientation for Hybrid Learners
All clinical psychology students in a master's or PhD program begin their studies with our Residential Orientation. Residential Orientations, which are held at the start of the fall and spring semesters in San Francisco, last for approximately two days. Like our Residential Conferences, they are held at:
- Westin San Francisco Airport Hotel
- 1 Old Bayshore Highway
- Millbrae, CA 94030
- Google Maps
Residential Conferences for Hybrid Learners
Residential conferences are opportunities for students and faculty to come together to explore and study exciting ideas in their fields of interest. Our residential conferences are an important part of your learning experience. They nurture intellectual creativity, enrich the educational environment, and foster faculty and peer mentoring. Each conference offers exploration and enriched learning in a variety of topics relevant to our degree programs. The content changes from conference to conference.
All MA students in the Clinical Psychology program, except for those in the Marriage & Family Therapy/PCC Specialization, are required to attend two week-long residential conferences in San Francisco each year until they have completed all their coursework and enrolled in a thesis or project.
Students in the Marriage & Family Therapy/PCC Specialization are required to attend two week-long residential conferences in San Francisco each year until they graduate.
All PhD students in Clinical Psychology are required to attend two week-long residential conferences in San Francisco each year until passing their oral examination for candidacy.
Residential Requirements for the MA in Counseling, LIOS Seattle Residential Program
Detailed residential requirements for this degree are quite different. For more detail see our sections on the Clinical Psychology Learning Model and MA Counseling.

I hear you, if it didn't cost me $15 a month I'd be more willing too. I float between so many games that if I plopped down the $15 a month to play Secret World I'd feel more compelled to play it over other games. Then I'd feel like I'm in the MMO rut that I don't want to be in. So until I get some of these free games out of my system... just don't have the will power to do it!
I'm still there. Just taking a Mechwarrior break, *and* my blasted regular playing guild has pulled me back to LOTRO for the Rohan expansion. But I just downloaded the half a gig update and plan to dive into it this weekend.
I've lost interest, partly because of the miscellaneous nature of the skill system. I have no idea what I should be doing, despite some research into builds, and as a result I solo fine but stink in groups. My cabal was gimping me through elites and I just got irritated that I needed gimping. And I don't have a high enough interest level to pour more mental energy into fixing whatever's wrong.
I downloaded the 3-day 15gig demo/trial, then got bored watching an hour of fucking cut scenes. I subsequently logged out and uninstalled. What a ridiculous game.
Have they improved the quality of the cutscenes? Because it seriously felt like I was watching something made in Second Life when I tried the beta weekend thing.
I can help you with that if you want. If your cabal is some ragtag bunch of dipshit pubbies then their advice is probably terrible. What weapons do you use? One thing you can do if you're concerned that your DPS isn't up to snuff is be the one who brings a bunch of group buffs to the table. I usually run AR/Shotgun when I DPS now, but I ran Pistols/Shotgun for a while just so I could bring both Deadly Aim and Breaching Shot, plus Cleanup for Nightmares. Elemental brings Short Fuse/Final Fuse as well. One common issue people have in all MMOs I've ever seen is that they don't focus their builds/rotations on optimizing their performance at the job they're supposed to be doing -- you see a lot of people running stuff that only really makes sense in a solo build instead of running abilities that will improve their BIG NUMBERS which is essentially what DPS' job is. You don't need four utility abilities most of the time in group play. If you are trying to use the same build for groups that you're trying to use for soloing you are going to have a bad time. You should also be running full DPS gear, which should leave you at 1970 health, unless you know for a fact that you should be wearing an HP piece for a particular fight. Don't forget that you can and should draw passives from any weapon tree. I'm not using an Elementalism focus, but fuck if I'm not abusing Live Wire and Social Dynamo. This is not an experience that exists in the Secret World. Sorry you didn't like it but that literally does not happen at any point in the game.
I kind of like the cut scenes, so I might be their intended audience. I don't know if they have "improved" them since you saw them; they haven't changed since release. As someone who spent way too much time in Second Life, I know what you mean -- dudes mostly stand around talking with unsynced lip motion and occasionally walk a few steps, wave an arm around or smoke a cigarette -- but I didn't think they were THAT bad. :) I'm not much of a gamer (mostly EQ and WoW) so the rampant NPC cursing and the BJ-cutscene amuse me just because of novelty, I suppose. (Alas the BJ-cutscene is pretty much the only sexy thing in the game, and that assumes that you are the type of person who finds that sort of thing sexy to begin with.) Once you get into the game, there are a lot of amusing things, pop references, funny names for quests and achievements, etc., but the pace of the game is odd, and the plethora of cutscenes is part of that. You're watching a story unfold as much as playing a game. Definitely a different feeling than any other game I've played. I enjoy that aspect of it more than the combat parts, really, but it would surely not be everyone's cup of tea. Also, they occasionally throw in quests where you have to do precision jumping, which pisses me off.
The intro where you first eat a bee and get recruited is not literally an hour of cutscenes, but it's pretty close. I recently re-did it on a diff. faction just to see how it differs (spoiler: if you're Illuminati, no BJ-cutscene, dunno about Templar) and there's not much to do until you get ported to Tokyo to shoot zombies in the subway system.
I like the cutscenes too, but not for the visual aspect. I like the writing and the delivery. I enjoy hearing ranting about ze strigoi in a heavy Romanian accent.
I'm pretty sure I'm a dipshit pubbie. LOL. http://chronicle.thesecretworld.com/character/Vi-Cat Thanks to being defaulted all the gear in the elite dungeons I have Blue Q10 in virtually every slot now, with a couple of random exceptions. This includes all weapons except Shotgun (Green Q9 I believe). If I remember right, I have only one or two elites to go before I am eligible to try Gatekeeper. However I am pretty sure I need more skillz to actually beat him/her/it. :) I have 10/10 skill in Assault Rifle, 9/9 skill in Pistol, Fist, Shotgun, Blade, and Blood; 9/4 in Chaos. This is mostly because I ran out of things to spend the skill points on; I've never touched a Chaos weapon and have limited available skills in most of those areas (filled out the basic decks for the jackets :D) I have this build available to me, it is the closest to a "real" dps build I have http://tsw.diebythearrow.com/assault-rifle-decks/ I also have various healy options including this one: http://dulfy.net/2012/07/14/bloody-assaultan-arblood-healer-build/ However I don't have much practice with either, nor do I know the proper optimization of gear with glyphs or signets. In groups I have been running with 1 health item and the rest dps or heals as appropriate. 98% of the time I'm running around with a half-assed survival AR build and not really bothering too much about the other weapon - lately fist for Impair (http://wiki.crygaia.com/view/Muzzle) although the freaking NPCs seem to cast too fast for me to interrupt anyway. This has gotten me halfway through Carpathian Fangs, with some randoms or guildies helping with a couple of the storyline missions.
So, those decks you linked mostly look terrible, heh. I agree with them about the tradeoffs of AR builders (but don't ever use Anima Shot in a group DPS deck unless asked, your job is to DPS, with the exception of NM Ankh where it will be handy to have Reap and Sew available for Dr. Klein). I use Safety Off but it does get me killed occasionally if I don't account for the slowed movement. (as they say, Hip Shooter is a viable alternative.) If you go with Safety Off, take the passive that buffs it. None of their decks do this. I think the passive that buffs Hip Shooter is good too but I don't know offhand as I don't use it. Don't use fucking Red Mist. It's a horrible ability, absolutely horrible. It has a long cast time and in full 10.4/10.4 it still only does about 3k damage. It has exactly one use outside of PvP and that's pulling a couple of very particular mobs in NM Hell Fallen thanks to its extreme range. Taking Red Mist also prevents you from taking an elite skill that's actually useful, like Do or Die. Red Mist is a pubbie trap in almost all situations. Speaking of Do or Die, if you don't need a different elite, that's your elite. No exceptions. Examples of elite active you might need to take instead: Cleanup (shotgun), Reap and Sew (AR), Slow the Advance (AR). If you aren't running Do or Die, it should be because your group needs you to run a different one for mechanical reasons. I'll have to look at the passives when I'm home and not on an iPad. Nearly every DPS build will want Live Wire, though. Some of those decks only have a resource consumer for one weapon, it looks like. That is bad 100% of the time. Pretty much all offensive resource builders build for both equipped weapons. That means you can use a builder 5 times, then consumer #1, then consumer #2. Consumers are generally very powerful. If you aren't using two consumers, you're leaving significant damage on the table. (If you haven't picked a second weapon, I heartily advise making both weapons ranged. Being melee is a huge disadvantage in a LOT of fights.) If you're DPS, don't worry about interrupting unless asked. Bosses can usually only be Impaired or Hindered three times before they become immune for a while. In some cases this can wipe the group if something important doesn't get interrupted, and the job is usually left to the tank. The only time I've ever used Muzzle in a group context was while healtanking the last boss of elite Darkness War. (You go with no healer, and your tank mixes tanking and healing spells and abilities, which offers a few advantages -- mostly you get 4 DPS so things go faster. This only works in some dungeons and only with good enough gear and builds. I did it in that case because made made it a boss and a half before we realized I had neglected to invite a healer. Still aced it. :D) You should get your skill with all talismans and your two weapons to 10 ASAP. Not being capped will result in unusually high glance rates. You only need to get one of the paths for each weapon to 10; going down the other path as you have will give you the small passive bonus but will not affect your skill level. The bonuses are mostly insignificant so don't worry too much, just pick whichever one sounds more useful to you. I filled out one track for every weapon type, then went back through and got the other tracks up when I had no real use for more SP. Getting the inner ring completed as you have is a good idea, since it's cheap as hell and often includes some important stuff; it also means that when you find you want to go into a deeper tree you don't have to come up with like 40 AP before you can even think about it. I didn't bother with customizing glyphs or signets until I started buying custom gear (with Black Bullion from NM dungeons). It didn't seem to be a big problem. Elites are mostly a joke once you have your sea legs, it isn't worth stressing about your exact ratios of crit chance and crit power and hit rating and all that. Gatekeeper is challenging. The thing about Gatekeeper is it's a test of Nightmare preparedness. When you do NM dungeons you will be expected to have very specific abilities available; as such, Gatekeeper will expect you to have particular abilities. I think DPS Gatekeeper requires purges? I forget. I did the tank one, which requires at least two impairs (I did Art of War and Chaotic Pull) and if you have a tank set available I think it's much easier. DPS was a pain in the ass. I haven't tried the healing one. You only have to do one of the three. I've never done AR healing so I can't speak to that. It's efficient at high gear levels as you do nontrivial damage at the same time, but with inferior gear it's weaker than some of the alternatives, and it has some severe limitations -- it's impossible to heal NM Hell Fallen because everything has barriers and you won't be doing enough healing. Fist is generally regarded as the strongest healing tree; you can either pair it with Blood for full on healing, or sub in a support weapon like Pistols or Shotgun to bring bonuses like group buffs (Deadly Aim, Breaching Shot) or utility spells (Cleanup, etc.). Either way Fist is usually the bulk of your healing bar. Hopefully I haven't missed anything. It's hard to keep track writing in a tiny box on a tablet. I will be around tonight some if you need help; voice chat is preferred.
Thanks! I forgot to mention the misc trees; I believe Do or Die was my next planned purchase, but I hadn't yet gotten there. I had been under the impression that you didn't get a benefit from going to skill 10 until you had purples, thanks for that, I'll prioritize it. Muzzle I've just been using solo, and just recently. There are a few specific mobs in Transylvania with casts that hurt. I've been trying to stay at range lately. Muzzle seems to be my main on-demand Impair at the moment, and it has a bit of range; but then I can't make use of a Fist consumer unless I'm in melee range, so there's that... I would like a good cookie cutter build to fall back on, I guess, and the game is not really set up that way. Like I said, I don't have the mental energy to learn all the ins and outs I would need. I am kind of wanting to at least finish up that story line now though. :) I don't think I'll be online tonight, though, movie plans. Thanks for the offer!
ooh, and I forgot reason number 1 why I lost interest. With the story line just about done, there is nothing left to do but group, and even if I became the hotshot dps or healing star I long to be, my current computer crashes and lags enough that I would be "that group member" that everyone grumbles about taking. (I know I've been the grumbler in other games, and I don't want to be the grumblee!) It doesn't matter when I'm soloing, I just run back after death, but in groups it's embarrassing and inconsiderate.
And I do appreciate it! Mr W just mentioned that he wants a new computer so maybe the computer issue will clear up soon :)
@ Kerzain and Thoro. Yep, the cut scenes are still there. I like them myself. You can always skip them if you're in a big hurry to get to wacking Whamadoodles, but honestly, you're right. You might as well just play a game that puts you to wacking right away, if that is your style. The "story" -- cut scenes, setting and all -- is really the main draw for the game, and apparently the main repulsion too. But that being said, there is the problem that even casual play can exhaust said storyline in a few months, and I really don't have that big an urge to spend my time raiding or PvPing. So that is also why I'm taking it slow and playing some Mechwarrior and LOTRO.
I see no big eyed Japanese schoolgirls in various states of distressed arousal, so it can't be Hentai....
Hi, Story concerns - They are adding in an entire new storyline for the next pub. Yeah its in Solomon island but if running -leets- isnt the fun thing to do , there is that. They do not expect their customers to be online day in day out. They are also allowing folk to repeat investigation missions. I like that because to see some of them again I would have to make a new character. The start up montage. The dream is the same for everyone. Dragon get kidnapped and tantric type sex to elevate you to the "harmonoic" bit (get you to go back in time and have the vision of what happened in tokyo) illuminati get bullied to go, then talk to some conspiracy nutjobs before getting whacked and drugged to get their "trip" in vision. Templar get guilted into going, with a mild threat that everyone else is going to kill you if you don't join us. Followed by listening to a "storyteller/puppeteer" on the street who seems to set you off into visions. Then you are prodded awake on a curb. There is more too the above if you stop, listen and look around. Which is kinda pushing one to relax into the world. ..... Decks Currently there are the new inner decks that are supposed to help one branch out into understanding how it all fits together. There have been some changes in skills because yes...some really were working out better than others. I hit the wall of wth am I doing in the city of the sun god. I really strongly recommend joining the ooc channel if you can tolerate rpers. Demonite there is running things regularly and is a wealth of information, there are others too. ... Why I am not playing but still buy clothes almost daily. The world frankly scares the piss out of me. I can only take so much before I have to go do something bright and flashy. City fo the sun god has me in tears most the time. The story encourages me to buy into it, and I do.. but I pay the price in not being there as much as I would like to be.
Okay, so for "recruiting," the Illuminati use drugs, the Dragon uses sex, and the Templar use... rock and roll? I'm not too clear on that last one.
I don't know about the Illuminati or the Templar, but that is not an accurate characterization of the Dragon.
Templars use visions. Well, "use" is probably wrong word here, it sort of just happens to you at some point.
The "sex" part of the dragon intro is very brief. Mostly you are meeting mysterious people. It is voluntary, more or less. (Been a while since I did it.). Voluntary in the story, that is, you as player are mostly an observer in that portion. I've been playing a bit again. I seem to have found a combo of setting and screen resolution that has resolved my problems.I've taken Inigmas advice & it is helping. I also located some solid-seeming dps cookie cutter builds which do seem to work better, although the dps meter I downloaded is still discouraging and soloing the last few missions in Carpathian was mostly an exercise in corpse-hopping.
Anything that you're still seeing marked as "Hard" once you're in QL10 gear is a "Nightmare" mission. They are tough and are best done with help until you have very good gear. On the plus side they award signets (most of which are terrible and you won't even want).
Anyone else sign up for the ARG? I'm beginning to wonder if the whole 'End of Days' thing will also apply to the game as we know it.
I did. They didn't get my cell number though. I get enough cracked texts as it is, and I sure as hell don't want to be called up at work by undead Mayans or something...
I signed up, but no cell phone number, same dealio. I guess the earlier ARG folks were getting calls? Link (note: has sound, so don't click if freaky chanting is inappropriate for your circumstances)
I signed up when it launched. I didn't give my phone number or my Twitter but I wish I had. People are reporting getting creepy phone calls in a little girl's voice, and it sounds awesome. They've said the holiday event won't be Christmas-related. I was thinking Solstice originally but it would be baller as heck if it were some kind of Mayan apocalypse prophecy deal.
Yep. It's Mayan Apocalypse, although who knows what spin Funcom is going to put on it? Remember, they've already had evil, bug controlled Mayans in game (or were those Aztecs? I always get them mixed up...). On a side note, I think it's hilarious that some folks on the forums don't think that the Mayan Apocalypse is a "serious" enough conspiracy plot for the secret world... Really.... EDIT: Here is the text of the email invite I got, minus graphics and all: Mankind has been warned. On December 21st there will be a cataclysmic event that marks the end of time as we know it. It is time to prepare.Leading up to this world-changing event is a brand new alternate reality game (ARG) set in and around The Secret World universe, which will allow you to better prepare for what is to come. If you have never participated in an ARG event before, this is your perfect chance.And quite possibly your last.This might be your one chance to save yourself from this inevitable cosmic event, and we encourage you to pre-register to take part in the ARG. Pre-registration is free and available on this page. The ARG will start in a few days and this is one train you do not want to miss.You do not need to be an active The Secret World player to take part, but if you are, note that exclusive prizes will be offered to all those who participate and that you will be able to enjoy these before everything comes to one last, screeching halt on December 21st.Sincerely, FUNCOM
I signed up for the ARG even though I'm not a TSW player, just for kicks, haha! I've been reading through the TSW ARG thread, and somebody posted a vid of the creepy girl phone call. I almost wish that I'd given my number just to hear that over the phone. AGGGHH!!! I opened this website, left it open when I didn't hear anything, completely forgot about it, and then SUDDENLY OUT OF NOWHERE CREEPY CHANTING AAAHHHHH i don't like this ARG anymore *sob*

Facing Heirway Christian in the opening round of the GISA Region 4-A tournament on Tuesday in Carrollton, the Cougars rolled to a 51-26 victory to advance to the semifinals on Thursday against top-seeded Oak Mountain.
With Tuesday's win, the Cougars secured one of the region's four invitations to the state tournament.
Now the Cougars will try to pull off the upset win over the host team on Thursday.
"Hopefully we'll give them a game Thursday night," Lafayette Christian head coach Rene Gomez said. "We'll have to make sure we execute and do everything right. We'll see what happens. We'll load up and play the game."
In Tuesday's game, the Cougars jumped out to a 7-0 lead, and they followed that up a short time later with an 8-0 run to go up 15-4.
The Cougars were up 30-13 at the half, and they pulled away in the second half to beat Heirway for the third time this season.
Colton Whitley, who Gomez said "was a workhorse for us inside," led the Cougars with 14 points.
Blake Spradlin added nine points, and Gomez said "he set the one early driving to the basket."
Caleb Corbin added six points, and Levi Evans added five points and did a nice job running the offense from his guard position according to Gomez.
David Curry contributed five assists.

VIDEO: Arrest Made at Bill Clinton Appearance at Pere Marquette Park
Supporter of Gov. Scott Walker was arrested for disorderly conduct after a verbal altercation with a few Barrett backers at Milwaukee rally with Clinton.
A vocal supporter of Gov. Scott Walker was arrested for disorderly conduct Friday during a rally for Democrat Tom Barrett that featured former President Bill Clinton. During the morning rally at Pere Marquette Park in Milwaukee, the Walker supporter was holding a sign that read "Support Scott Walker NOT Union Thugs." In the middle of the crowd, he would put his sign in front of other signs supporting Barrett. One Patch reader gives her take on the events: "My husband and I were at the rally standing six feet from him 15 minutes before the rally began, during, and when he was arrested as the rally ended," she writes. "Even before the rally began he was screaming at people near him that held recall signs. Get out the vote volunteers flanked …

Report: Sixers in talks about Iguodala trade
News blogs, sports blogs, entertainment blogs, and more from Philly.com, The Philadelphia Inquirer and the Philadelphia Daily News.
Report: Sixers in talks about Iguodala trade
The 76ers are involved in talks that could send Andre Iguodala to the Nuggets as part of a four-team blockbuster trade, according to Yahoo! Sports.
The website reports that sources say the deal would send Orlando's Dwight Howard and Denver forward Al Harrington to the Lakers, Lakers center Andrew Bynum to the Sixers, and Lakers forward Pau Gasol and Denver guard Arron Affalo going to Orlando.
Talks have grown serious "over the course of the week," according to the report, but a deal is not considered imminent. Yahoo! also said there are moving parts to the deal to be resolved.
Yahoo! said the Magic would have a better chance of moving Gasol in another deal and eliminate the risk of Bynum leaving as a free agent in 2013. In one of the scenarios, either Gasol or Bynum would come to the Sixers.

I'd think a Bynum-Holiday-Turner-Young core could conceivably convince another top tier guy to sign here. RG- OutofTownPhillyFan
- Not really - they'd probably have to find somebody desperate for some big man help and move either Hawes (maybe) or Brown (doubtful) for expiring contracts. They've got about $11M coming off at the end of this season (Young, Wright & Ivey), but with the escalators in the rookie deals and Thad's deal, that # is closer to $8.5/9M. Bynum's salary wouldn't go down significantly if you re-signed him, so you'd really only have about $8.5M to play with, and you're also staring at Jrue's final year of his rookie contract next season.

Actualy apart from Connan they will all end. Naruto is getting their maybe 3 years at most, OP is at the halfway stage now that the crew has been reunited and are about to leave Sabadony now. Bleach maybe not, yes Ichigo has lost his powers now, but he will more than likely find a way to get them back with Isshin helping him. Then there is the whole SK thing since i still beleive the Hongokoyu to be a fragment of the Soul King and just trying to reunite with him since the Soul King is trapped and wants out. Hence the Hongokoyu was manipulating Aizen. Hence why he wasnt killed at the end only sealed since there will come a time when SS will need Aizens help.
So the 3 will end, OP going for the longest, but Naruto is getting close now, especaily since Naruto has got Minatos powers and to some extent can control the 9 tails. Plus as far as strong evil ninja go now. since Kisame has died that just leaves Madara, Sasuke and Kabutomaru. Kabuto will die, Sasuke will do a Vegeta to help Naruto defeat Pein. Just a matter of time.

Exclusive bonus stories from the best-selling author of Lost at Sea, Them, The Psychopath Test and The Men Who Stare at Goats.
©2012 Jon Ronson (P)2012 Audible Ltd
"Painfully honest and always funny"
As always, Jon Ronson is thought-provoking and funny in this glimpse into his personal life.
QUESTION : DOES LISTENING TO AUDIO BOOKS MAKE YOU SMARTER? If so, I'm. Freakin Genius!
"A Funny, Free, Family Portrait!"
Warning : Explicit Language Used.
If you just so happen, to listen to this book, say, on your Kindle Fire, with say, your children in the room, you have been warned! And your welcome.
Other than that, this book was so FUNNY! If you don't laugh, and I mean really laugh, at the last story. Then something is really wrong with you! SMILE
Making the world better one review at a time.
"Ronson's voice alone will make you laugh..."
These four short stories by Jon Ronson are very easy to relate to. Anyone who has a child, spouse, neighbor, friend and / or parents will find a connection here. Jon Ronson is a wonderful writer and an even better reader. Ronson's voice alone will make you laugh as you listen to these stories. I have been a fan of Ronson's since I read The Psychopath Test, and these delightful and humorous stories only made me more of one. I can't wait for the next Ronson read!
But it's a Kosher frog!
"Entertaining Little Freebie"
Cute and entertaining. Like Seinfield, it all about nothing. I look forward to the release of his next book.
"The best!"
Yes, absolutely
Yes, two others. They are all good, but i love these short stories. I want more....and they would be worth buying!
Full disclosure....why we are all happily neurotic
Jon Ronson is the cat's meow!
Tell us about yourself! I am a 43 year old wanna be intellect. I love people doing things for me and i guess that includes my reading! My interests vary widely so this site is right up my alley....maybe too much so!!!
"Great sense of humor"
It was free and of excellent quality
Jon himself because he thinks in the abstract and outside of the box, but never leaves reality. A quality i wish i had.
The extreme wit and brute honesty
Comfortably Dysfunctional
I look forward to getting to know this writer. I went and found his stuff as soon as I listened to it. Thanks for the freebie
When I drive, I read... uhm listen. I like SciFi, Fantasy, some Detective and Espionage novels and Religion. Now and then I will also listen to something else.
"Needs a specific taste in humor"
This is definitely not my cup of tea. The stories are supposed to be funny, but really aren't. It could be that this type of humour isn't funny to people like me. I found the first story vulgar and the rest very dull. It is for free, so try it and decide for yourself.
""F" word not wanted"
This is supposed to be a "family" book? Only heard the first three sentances when I knew this book was not for me.
Since taking my first creative writing class in 2008 the pleasure I used to get from reading has been greatly reduced. I notice things I never noticed before. That said, I think I rate books pretty generously. Anyone who actually manages to write a whole book and then get it published deserves an extra star.
"So - what IS the worst swear word?"
A great little compilation of Jon Ronson's self-deprecating, anxiety-ridden stories about family life. He's kind of a straight David Sedaris.
"Thanks Audible!"
I have listened to it more than once already! I especially liked that it was taken from Jon Ronson's real family life. The stories were funny and a little embarrassing, the way real family moments always are. I enjoyed them especially because they were read by the author. I always feel like Jon Ronson is talking to ME when I listen to his audio books, and this was no exception. I wish he would write more about his life. Memoir?
It has a similar style to Jon Ronson's other books.
His narration always gives an insight into how he feels about his subject. I enjoy his books in audio because they feel like more than just journalism, you get to know him as a writer while you learn about his subjects. The most interesting part of these stories was that the subject was Jon Ronson himself.
Well, Jon Ronson, of course. And he could bring his son along too, he sounds adorable.
If you haven't listened to anything by Jon Ronson, this set of stories will give you a feel, even though they are more intimate than his books. If you are a Jon Ronson fan, then definitely listen!

The Ottawa Little Theatre that could
By Suzanne Bowness - Thursday, September 13, 2012 - 0 Comments
The incubator for pros and home for amateurs thrives 100 years after its first play
Rich Little was moping around the house. The 18-year-old had vague dreams of a career on the stage, so his mother took him down to Ottawa Little Theatre, where he auditioned for his first role. He got the part—and four lines. "I got a laugh," he says. "And I walked off stage and said, 'That's what I'm going to do for a living.'"
Last week, Little—a master impressionist who has appeared everywhere from The Ed Sullivan Show to Laugh-In to Hollywood Squares—brought his latest one-man act, Jimmy Stewart & Friends, from Las Vegas to Ottawa for a benefit concert to honour the community theatre where he got his start. "I think if it wasn't for the Ottawa Little Theatre I wouldn't have gotten into showbiz," he says. "I learned my craft there." Although he performed in about 15 shows beginning with that first role in the mid-'50s, Little says he also used to sit in the wings and watch other performances. "It was a great education to see really skilled actors work."
The oldest continuously producing communty theatre in Canada turns 100 this year; it predates the National Arts Centre by 56 years. Some very early shows were in what is now the Canadian Museum of Nature. Its niche is mainstream productions, the standards as opposed to the edgy and the avant-garde, offered at reasonable prices.

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My physician has recommended treatment from a lymphedema specialist. How can I make sure the person is qualified?
Linda McGrath Boyle PT, DPT CLT-LANA, Cancer Rehab Specialist and OncoLink Lymphedema Team Editor, responds:
Lymphedema can be effectively treated by certified lymphedema therapists (CLT). Certified lymphedema therapists can be physical therapists, occupational therapists, physicians, chiropractors, nurses, or massage therapists who have undergone specialized training. There are several schools that educate certified lymphedema therapists in the United States. Unfortunately, there are also some therapists who call themselves lymphedema therapists but have not actually attended and successfully graduated from one of these nationally recognized two-week, 128-hour programs.
The national competency examination for certified lymphedema therapists is given by the Lymphedema Association of North America (LANA). When certified lymphedema therapists successfully pass this national examination, they may use the initials CLT-LANA behind their name.
If you need to find a qualified lymphedema therapist in your area, you can consult the websites below. These schools train qualified certified lymphedema therapists (CLT). Lymphedema therapists with CLT-LANA following their name have passed a national standardized examination.
Klose Training www.klosetraining.com
Norton School www.nortonschool.com
Vodder School www.vodderschool.com
Another helpful website for persons with lymphedema is the National Lymphedema Network. Here persons with lymphedema can find reliable information about lymphedema.
