HOME. Dobby: Harry Potter must say he is not going back to school.
Harry: "I can't! Hogwarts is my home!!" |
1. | hogwarts | ||
Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizadry is a fictional school from the Harry Potter books. It is a hidden school where students aged 11 to 17 learn magic and many other things.
It is assumed that Hogwarts is in Scotland, as it takes many hours to get to from Kings Cross, in London. At the very first day of Hogwarts, the new students are placed into the 4 houses, Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. At the end of the year, the students take a test and if they pass, they continue onto their second year. At the end of the second year, the students' take more lessons, they can choose which other lessons they want, along with the core subjects that they had in years 1 and 2. In year 5, students can pick any subjects they want to continue and drop subjects they don't want to continue, into their 6th and 7th year. A prefect boy and prefect girl is also chosen from each house at 5th year. Students also take their O.W.L. tests in the 5th year. In the 7th year, a Head boy and Head girl is chosen, and students also take their N.E.W.T.'s in this year, thus completing their education at Hogwarts. Hogwarts lessons: Potions Herbology Defense against the Dark Arts Charms Divination Muggle Studies Arithmacy Care of Magical Creatures Astromony History of Magic Transfiguration Flying Class (1st years) -I may have missed one or two.- Hogwarts is hidden from muggles; by charms and it is unplottable.

Love it, stoped once after 4 years, I can clean the flame sensed my self with out the service guy at $120 an hour.
Location: Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Satisfaction Rating:
New home came with a Keeprite installed. In the 3rd month the furnace stopped. Called the sticker on the furnace and Keeprite gave number of the installer. 2:00 am and the tech called back and asked about the "heartbeat" in the view window. He said he would be right out. He was their inside of 30 min. The unit was running in 15. No charge. No callout charge of any kind. The tech said that was the Keeprite warranty. WOW. Temp outside was -35 deg f. We have had no issues since. 3 winters. (it gets cold here)
Years owned: 22
Satisfaction Rating:
"KeepRite Furnace"
The unit was 11 years old when we purchased the house 11 years ago. We have not had any issues with this unit. It looks like the fan/limit control was changed before we bought the house. It was made in Brantford, Ontario, Canada but that factory has been closed. I would try another KeepRite.
Years owned: 11
Satisfaction Rating:
"Good quality 21 years ago"
Our unit is 21 years old. We have lived in the house for the last 11 years. It looks like the previous owner may have changed the fan/limit control at some time. There is a Honeywell fan/limit manual with the unit. The ventor motor has started to make a noise near the end of this years heating season. If the fan/limit is the only thing changed in 21 years that speaks for it's self. They are no longer making the furnaces in the same factory as they were 21 years ago so I don't know what today's quality is like but I would try a new Keeprite.
Years owned: 8
Satisfaction Rating:
"Works Great, no problems!!"
Had a Keeprite installed new & it is amazing!!! Only problem I ever had was the furnace shutting on & off which turned out to be the inlet pipe, (very, very important to be sure no leaves, or plastic bags get sucked up into the inlet pipe. Always check the inlet on your high efficiency furnace before you replace any parts. Sometimes condensation or snow can freeze inside an elbow, causing the furnace to shut off. Good tip from a happy Keeprite owner!!!!

One of the advantages the Pistons have in re-signing Calderon is the ability to offer him an extra year on his contract. Would anyone be willing to sign him for 5 years if that's what it would take to keep him? Like lapiston said a few days ago, Calderon has shown what the Pistons were missing. NBA starting point and shooting guards.. I don't know if that means they should keep him. He has been good, no doubt. There's just something about making a 31 year old PG your big free agent signing that carries a whiff of losing.
But his game is not predicated on youthful athleticism. He'll still be a very good player at age 35, much like Kidd and Nash I don't imagine a huge slip in production.
I'm going to say something about the Calderon's trade that I have said before. I do not miss Prince. I thought I would miss him when he left but I don't. Re-sign Calderon is important. But he is not the most important key. I read so many post here about how Iguodala and/or Smith are not winners... well, Calderon is not a winner, guys. Don't get me wrong, I love seeing the Pistons being handled by this man, he seems to know what he is doing and when Drummond come back it will be much better. But we can't say that he is a winner and Smith don't. They both had their chances with good teammates and they didn't make it. I don't think we can sign Josh Smith neither Iguodala, so we have to think in the other players, in Millsap, in Mayo if possible, in getting a better SF than Singler and Jerebko, and in, for once and for all, trading up in the draft if we fall outside a top 7 pick. What is the most important key? For me is to not make the same mistakes we made in the past. (Yes, I'm talking about Gordon/Villanueva) Do not overpay players THAT MUCH. Do not sign free agents an hour after the free agency period is officially open. Wait a few days, check the big picture there.. test possible sign and trades with other teams... do your work! That being said, Yes, I know that Calderon is our best option for years to come unless somehow we can get an already all-star point guard, but the chances of that are really low, so, it is important to re-sign Jose, as I said, but trying to be for the right price!
Way more so towards the end, once he turned into the Incredible Hulk. They young, simply muscular Karl was a serious high flyer and loads of fun to watch. Sent from my SCH-I905 using Tapatalk 2
With gordon and villa, it wasnt the raw amount of the contracts that bugged me, it was that we sought out bench players as our fa targets. If they were legit stars, we could overpay them a bit and live with their on court performances. Calderon is similar in terms of defensive ability, but with pieces like drummond, it matters less. Also he brings a dimension offensively besides scoring, so he's a more needed component.
Why is it that Smith & Iggy are considered impossible FA targets whereas Millsap & Mayo are seen as realistic possibilities?
#1. Iggy won't be opting out this summer. Do you really want to sign him to a 4 year contract worth between $50 and $60 when he's 30? Mind you, he's not Calderon, his game is heavily dependent on speed and athleticism. #2. I just think most folks don't really want to give Josh Smith a max deal and he'll be looking for one. 5 years for a contact worth about $80M, really? I say 5 years because we can do a sign and trade with Atlanta to give him more money, they don't have to necessarily get anything or anyone back in return outside of a really big trade exception, think Raptors and Cavs when Miami got James and Bosh. Although.........If Atlanta were willing to take Chaz and Stuckey back in a sign and trade........different story.
Age. I think Mayo feels he can be a part of a team that is on the rise whereas I believe Iggy is in that window where he only wants to sign with (at worst) a playoff team.

On December 14, 2010, President Obama signed an executive order establishing the White House Council for Community Solutions to engage a diverse group of prominent cross-sector leaders to:
- Connect, convene and catalyze the best resources of the public, private, non-profit and philanthropic sectors in communities across the country
- Identify and highlight solutions that work
- Identify key attributes of effective cross-sector solutions from institutions working together on community problems
- Catalyze resources to support effective community-based solutions
On June 4, 2012, the Council delivered its Final Report and Recommendations to the President.
Across America, individuals and community groups are finding innovative solutions to address local problems and encourage civic participation. In learning about these community-led initiatives, the Council chose to focus on supporting young people who are not connected with education and employment.
While these young people are commonly referred to as disconnected youth, the Council identified them as opportunity youth because of the untapped potential they offer and high cost that inaction poses for our nation.
Through extensive research, listening and outreach efforts, the Council learned that:
- Certain community collaboratives that embody a common approach and core set characteristics can make significant progress toward solving a range of social issues.
- There is an urgent and compelling need to bring together all sectors around helping opportunity youth. At least 6.7 million youth (ages 16-24) – or one in six young people – are out of school and the workforce. In 2011 alone, taxpayers shouldered $93 billion in direct and indirect costs to support these young people.
- Opportunity youth have the potential infuse our economy with skills and leadership. Young people who are out of school and work do not see themselves as "disconnected." They have energy and aspirations, and are eager to work with local leaders to develop solutions that improve their lives, benefit their community, and help youth nationwide.
The Council's work focused in three phases:
- Phase One: Listen and learn. Through research and intensive listening sessions with over 300 different stakeholders – the Council learned a lot from community leaders to youth. The Council wanted to understand the common traits that effective collaboratives share and the common barriers that keep young people out of school and work.
- Phase Two: Develop and launch new resources.
- The Collaboratives Toolbox is a guide for communities to create or improve collaborations and includes best practices, tools and models for effective cross-sector community initiatives.
- The Economic Value of Opportunity Youth assesses the size of the population of youth who are out of school and work, the cost of inaction, and the benefits of re-investing in these young people.
- A Toolkit for Employers: Connecting Youth and Business is an easy-to-use guide for employers when developing opportunities for low-income and disconnected youth to develop: (1) soft skills through mentoring, (2) work-ready skills through career days and job-shadowing, and (3) learn & earn skills through internships and permanent positions.
- Phase Three: Develop a Final Report and recommendations to support the growth of successful community solutions and connect Opportunity Youth with learning and employment. By building awareness of this issue, what works, and available tools, communities can create real, systematic change for young people.
The White House Council for Community Solutions concluded its work in June 2012. The final report is posted on this page.

Ballet gala invites joie de vivre at SPAC
SARATOGA SPRINGS — The elegant Belle Époque era comes to life on Saturday, July 14, for the Saratoga Performing Arts Center's annual Ballet Gala, "An Evening at the Moulin Rouge."
The popular summer fundraiser, which coincides with "Bastille Day," will recreate the atmosphere of a Parisian lounge circa 1900, with a champagne and La Fée Absinthe reception, a strolling accordion player, exquisite French cuisine and guests dressed in period attire.
Organized and hosted by SPAC's Action Council, proceeds from the event support the summer residency of the New York City Ballet at SPAC.
The centerpiece of the evening will be a special performance by New York City Ballet that will include a world premiere ballet by Justin Peck.
Across the venue's expansive grounds, SPAC's Junior Committee hosts the Gala Lawn Party under the stars.
Known as one of the most elegant, yet affordable events of the Saratoga season, guests enjoy live music and candlelight picnics and parties on SPAC's lawn.
A highlight of this year's Lawn Party will be the picnic contest, with this year's winners inaugurating a new trophy dedicated to the late Philly Dake, one of SPAC's founders, longtime benefactors and former president of the Action Council.
"The Ballet Gala is one of the most highly anticipated events on the Saratoga summer calendar. My warmest thanks go out to Action Council president Gerri Golub and event chairs Andrea Spungen and Michel Patterson for the creativity and tremendous effort they've invested in planning this event," said Marcia J. White, SPAC's president and executive director.
"The evening promises to be an elegant, exciting celebration of the partnership between SPAC and New York City Ballet, transporting guests to a lavish Moulin Rouge atmosphere and an era where art, music and dance flourished," she said.
Lawn admission to the gala is $50 per person; tickets are available at spac.org or at the SPAC Box Office. Lawn table and tent rentals also available through SPAC at spac.org. Tickets for the Hall of Springs Gala, which include the champagne reception, dinner and premium seating for the New York City Ballet performance, are $250 per person and can be purchased by calling Linda Deschenes at SPAC, 584-9330, ext. 115, email@example.com.

spotted knapweed (Centaurea biebersteinii)
- This is part of Season Spotting
- When to observe: Year-round
- What to observe: Flowers, Fruits, and Leaves
to observe:
Leaves | Initial growth
New growth of the plant is visible, either from above-ground buds with green tips, or new green or white shoots breaking through the soil surface. Growth is considered "initial" on each bud or shoot until the first leaf has fully unfolded. |
In at least one location on the plant, a fully unfolded leaf is visible. For seedlings, consider only true leaves and do not count the cotyledons (one or two small, round leaves) that are found on the stem almost immediately after the seedling emerges. |
Flowers | Flowers
One or more fresh flowers or flower heads (inflorescences) are visible on the plant. Flower heads include many small flowers that usually do not open all at once. Do not include wilted or dried flowers that remain on the plant, or heads whose flowers have all wilted or dried. |
Open flowers
One or more open fresh flowers are visible on the plant. Flowers are considered "open" when the reproductive parts (male stamens or female pistils) are visible between unfolded or open flower parts. Do not include wilted or dried flowers that remain on the plant. |
Fruits | Fruits
One or more fresh fruits are visible on the plant. |
Ripe fruits
One or more ripe fruits are visible on the plant. |
Recent fruit drop
One or more fresh mature fruits or seeds have dropped or been removed from the plant since your last visit. Do not include obviously immature fruits that have dropped before ripening, such as in a heavy rain or wind. |

Are you an alumni or industry friend who is interested in collaborating with the Stewart School of Industrial & Systems Engineering (ISyE) at Georgia Tech? ISyE works closely with a wide network of collaborators. This page describes some of the most commonly employed mechanisms for industry collaboration. However, this is by no means an exhaustive list and we are always eager to explore new and creative ways to collaborate with our alumni and industry friends.
I. Industry-University Research & Project Opportunities
II. Student & Course Enrichment
III. Recruiting and Career Placement
IV. Continuing Professional Education
Please contact Nancy Sandlin, director of development for ISyE, to discuss opportunities for collaboration or philanthropic opportunities.
Research and teaching, people and ideas, and innovations and initiatives—all are integral to an extraordinary vision for the future. For our industry partners, ISyE can play a strong role by providing a test-bed for developing and prototyping new technologies and innovations. Our industry partners have opportunities to engage faculty and students to help develop more informed talent that meets your company's business needs.
During the fourth year of undergraduate study all ISyE students work on a Senior Design Project. Each project team includes four to eight senior students and is led by an ISyE faculty member. This program provides a unique opportunity for companies and organizations to partner and interact with a team of bright, creative, and dedicated students, and is truly a win-win collaboration for both the students and industry partners. Considered to be the most important and most challenging undergraduate industrial engineering course, Senior Design pushes students to apply what they have learned in the classroom to solve a complex real-world problem that has a defined bottom-line impact for a corporation. The average project value runs in the six figures. Many enterprises have problems that can be successfully studied and solved by a small group of industrial engineering students working for experience and academic credit. Senior design teams select projects before the start of fall and spring semester. Students' select their own projects from a portfolio of proposed projects submitted by sponsoring organizations.
For more on sponsoring a Senior Design project, visit the Senior Design website.
Senior Design provides students with an opportunity to apply their classroom education toward solving real-world problems in a collaborative environment. The participating companies and organizations benefit from "a fresh set of eyes and new approaches to some very perplexing problems," said Ed Rogers, global strategy manager for UPS corporate strategy. "The best teams typically demonstrate an enthusiastic inquisitiveness, excellent analytical skills, and creative yet realistic implementable solutions." |
All master-level graduate students in supply chain engineering complete an industry sponsored Capstone Project during the last four months of their curriculum. The MS in Supply Chain Engineering is a professional practice oriented graduate degree program created to meet the growing demand for business-savvy engineers who can design and synchronize highly complex global supply chains. The program's intensive 12-month curriculum delivers academic knowledge in analytic methods, supply chain engineering, and enterprise management while building professional practice skills and real-world industry experience.
The summer (May-July) term is dedicated to the Capstone Industry Project in which students apply their knowledge and skills to a real-world supply chain engineering/management project. Students work in teams with faculty and a professional mentor for support. Prior to the summer term, team assignments are determined, and teams select specific projects from a portfolio of projects offered by potential sponsors (business, government, and international nongovernment organizations). Each sponsoring organization provides operational support for the project team and assigns a mentor to actively work with the team during the project. During the term, teams complete both field work periods (typically on-site at industry site) and on-campus work periods (preparing and presenting project outcomes.)

The Supply Chain & Logistics Institute provides global leadership for industry research, education and outreach in supply chain engineering. We define "Supply Chain Engineering" as the application of scientific principles to optimize the design and integration of supply chain processes, infrastructure, technology and strategy. While SCL has resources and programs in supply chain management, its primary focus is on development of new tools for analysis, design and management of logistics processes, and new concepts and strategies for the practice of supply chain engineering.
SCL industry research is focused on:
Most of these industry research activities are coordinated through various industry outreach partnerships including:
SCL also operates the Georgia Tech Panama Logistics Innovation & Research Center, Georgia Tech Costa Rica Trade Innovation & Productivity Center, Georgia Tech Mexico Trade & Logistics Innovation Center, and was a partner in the establishment of The Logistics Institute Asia Pacific at the National University of Singapore.
For more information, contact Jaymie Forrest, Director of the Supply Chain & Logistics Institute.
The faculty and graduate students in ISyE regularly work with corporations and other organizations to perform in-context research that provides new knowledge, tools, and insights related to the immediate interest of business partners. These projects are organized with individual faculty or small groups of faculty.
For further information, contact Nancy Sandlin.
ISyE solicits industry executives from a variety of fields to interact directly with ISyE students through class presentations, panels, and lectures to inspire and steep students in real-world problems and solutions. Here are a few of the ways you can interact and enrich our students' academic experience.
Caterpillar, Inc. has been an active recruiter on the Georgia Tech campus, and wanted to get more involved in the classroom. For instance, Caterpillar brought their supply chain simulation game into the classroom allowing ISyE students to participate. The game incorporates Caterpillar's guiding principles focusing on manufacturing engineering and supply chain logistics, demonstrating the benefits of proper inventory management, business flow, and the importance of meeting customers' needs. By exposing students to the complex objectives and constraints involved in a manufacturing process, such as responsiveness to customer demand and removal of waste, the game provided the students with a very practical hands-on approach to some ISyE concepts. |

This is just a blog for me to discuss my thoughts about widowhood, motherhood, single-hood, and any other -hoods I'm experiencing or will experience...
Thursday, December 20, 2007
What really got me though was that yesterday had been the first time I'd stepped into that ER since That Day. I actually felt a little woozy when I stepped inside, and when they ushered me into the waiting area. It was just all too much. I couldn't help but think of That Day. Of the noise, the movement all around, the police walking up to me and telling me "he didn't make it." But, I just saw his brother - how did he not make it, and his brother did? I couldn't help thinking "why am I here?"

I understand the feeling.... My husband died a year and a half ago and I haven't set foot in that hospital again since.... until this last week when I had to take my son there for treatment.... very hard to have all those memories rushing back all at once, especially when I was supposed to be strong and helping my child through a rough time.... However i noticed I did feel a bit of comfort.... knowing that his spirit was helping and looking down on his son that day.... strange all the thoughts in our heads :-) I enjoy reading your blog and I think we are on much of the same level.... If you ever feel like chatting sometime just hit me up... I don't have too many friends who have experienced a complete life changing event at such a young age as we have....
Sorry.... RAMBLING :-)
Much luck to you and yours,

Map Navigation in LOTRO is the worst
I wish to discuss how bad the map is in this game and still don't get how after 5 years old the devs still think this is a good map.
I have played a different MMO (perfect world) where the map in that game was a godsend compared to this game's map.
You could zoom in to your location and see where the route is that you should take. and I feel this is one of the most important features that an MMO-map should have . And not a map where it is fixed at 25'000 feet in the air.
Now the radar imo is also one of the worst in any MMO I've played so far.
Don't you think it would be a good Idea to show Monsters , NPC's and other nearby players on it as dot's
and be abel to zoom out or in and let it spin so it's not in a fixed postion.
Just a few ideas that maybe could be put on the todo list of fix's.

Re: Map Navigation in LOTRO is the worst
The maps this game uses are, I think, the way they are because they are in the style of the maps Tolkien drew himself. I see it as part of the lore. Also, its fun to figure out your own path and not having big signs saying "GO THIS WAY," trough playing maps over and over you get to know paths and shortcuts.
Showing players on the radar is, in my opionion, only handy for people who are in your fellowship/raid and these already show on your radar, alltough perhaps kinsmen could be added to this. The enemies on the radar would take away the necessity of hunters' tracking skills, which I think are one of the cooler features of the class.
So to go short, I do not like this idea, nor do I see why it would be needed.

Re: Map Navigation in LOTRO is the worst
I think players get much more help even now than they need to, giving them quest trackers and whatnot.
Also, devs already started to redesign the world map, they'll just need a tad bit more time to finish with all zones.
Giving players infos such as monster/npc/player locations on map is while could come in handy in some situations, overall they'll just ruin the whole experience by another way to draw attention away from the actual scenery so you could look the UI more.
Also, hunters have an ability to track monsters, and with your suggested modifications, they would not only lose the skill and trait (track hidden) concerning minimap and map, but they would lose another essence of their class.
While I'm eagerly looking forward to the redrawings of the zone maps (some of them are indeed confusing and some POIs are badly placed), I do not support the idea of bringing these "modern" and increasingly common features into the game.
May 24 2012 10:04 AM #4
Re: Map Navigation in LOTRO is the worst
So hunters have skills do they then , So what about the rest of us then ?.
And you may think the whole "it's fun to figure out your own path" and that maybe so in some case's . But all I'm asking is to be abel to plan my own route more carefully and not spend an hour back tracking because there is an impassable mountain range in my way .
That IMO is not fun and is a complete waste of my time
But how do you think a zoom in feature on a map is having a "GO THIS WAY," arrow ??
Now can you explain the race Earth-Kin and why they are in LOTRO when they have never had a mention in any Tolkien book as far as I'm aware as they are not in the "lore". (books I have looked at for Earth-Kin are The Lord of the Rings ,The Complete Guide to Middle-Earth.)
So in short all I wish to be added is an extra layer (ZOOM closer) added to the map's so I can plan my own route myself not a LOTRO TOMTOM Satnav.

Re: Map Navigation in LOTRO is the worst
In my opinion the map with its inaccuracy (I stopped counting how many times I took the wrong turn in Misty Mountains when I tried to rely solely on the map) and all fits the overall game design pretty well if you know what I mean. The map as it is, no enemies on radar, no numbers when it comes to threat - it all improves the immersion in a sense that LOTRO is less of a game of numbers and more of a game of exploration and observation. I like it.

Re: Map Navigation in LOTRO is the worst
These Hunter skills are helpful but nothing over powering. Tracking only works for mobs close to you. The skill on a long timer. All you get is a list of name from categories like angry local humanoids. You get a DOT on the radar for the single mob you are tracking. Your fellowship members do too. It most useful for finding a named mob in the area that is on patrol. Especially if you are in a weather effect for a Shard Holder in Forochel, Misty Mountains - but you have to know which category so you use the correct tracking skill. There may some mobs that can't be tracked.
It is part of the Hunter class functionality. Hunters are ranged DPS, trackers and movement specialists. Plus have some traps and crowd control. All part of Lotro's concept of providing unique functionality for each class.
Some of these functions existed in earlier games. They were removed in Lotro. For example, DOTs on the radar for everything. I suspect DOT removal is a game play change. LOTRO in its original implementaion was not playable game. There was too much work for the server and client to do. Plus too many messages going back and forth. A lot of changes had to be made to reduce the work load.
Unless stated otherwise, all content in this post is My Personal Opinion.

Re: Map Navigation in LOTRO is the worst
You're actually expected to read the quest instructions, and not rely on the map. It has a nicely vague, "Here be dragons" quality. Sometimes literally.

Re: Map Navigation in LOTRO is the worst
I have also felt the need to be able to zoom out on the minimap, but the worldmap is perfect as it is. Only place where it is plain misleading is in the Old Forest, and even in there it is a big part of the athmosphere. You are supposed to get lost in there in the first place.
The latest addition of map markers defaulting to found already made navigating a lot more confusing when doing explorer deeds. Now you actually have to check from all your ongoing and finished deeds if you have actually visited that spot. Before you could look at the map, and if there was something that looked interesting, there was most probably also a marker to be found.
As for markers and dots, no way. Not ever. This is LotRO, not some eastern grindfest. Be aware that this comment wasn't aimed towards you, but the games that have everything pre-chewed.Bravery calls my name, in the sound of the wind in the night.

Re: Map Navigation in LOTRO is the worst
I have to disagree with this. Other games perform the same mechanic of learning you way around via fog-of-war, which LOTRO doesn't really have (even the older now-disabled fog-of-war didn't perform in that manner).
5 years ago, when Moria was top-end, I knew my way around almost the whole zone (with the exception of the Foundations of Stone). Now when I re-visit Moria, I'm trying to rely on 5 year old memories which have long since been sent to offline storage. Why should I have to deal with the poke-n-hope style of exploration, for something which I theoretically previously mapped out in fullness?
Since maps do play a significant role in the M-e lore, why is it unreasonable to imagine that I've already mapped out my own personal maps, fully detailed, which I reference any time I decide to revisit certain areas?
Jun 01 2012 02:53 PM #12
Re: Map Navigation in LOTRO is the worst
MMO's used to have no maps, radars or much of anything. In fact in the old days I would draw my own maps on paper for each "zone" or area, and that was part of exploring and providing a much ore real and immersive experience. I will expand further so I am not guilty of an appeal to tradition fallacy.
So Smellycheese, rather than "I theoretically mapped out..." actually map it! If you don't and you forget, there is no theoretical. Just like real life.
LoTRo is one of the few games I like these days because it does have some of that immersion factor. Games where the map points you where to go for every quest, how to get everywhere, reduces the game to just point, click, kill. All a player ends up doing then is going through the motions, no thought or thrill of the unknown is involved. Unfortunately the majority of games are dumbed down in such a manner, presumably for today's audience.
Lastly, these days there are a lot of fan sites online that we did not used to have either. Alt-tab and look at one of the many detailed, searchable maps available online if having the extra guidance is your style.

Confident Decision-Making in the Daze of Mothering by Jean Blackmer I stood in the produce section of the grocery store looking at the variety of peppers. I picked up a green one, examined it for brown spots and gave it a gentle squeeze to make sure it wasn't mushy. It felt solid, so I put it in my cart and imagined how I might actually get my kids to eat something green other than a gummy worm. Then I noticed the red, yellow and even orange peppers. Maybe I should buy one of each? As I scanned the produce section I noticed another area where more peppers were displayed like colorful crayons — the organic section. For the millionth time I wondered if I should buy organic. Could buying a pepper really become such a time-consuming, mind-boggling decision? In our world today? Yes. We live with a paradox: We are fortunate to have so many choices, but this often causes difficulty in decision-making and may lead to regret with decisions. In the book, Paradox of Choice: Why More is Less, author Barry Schwartz builds a convincing case of how our culture of abundance robs us of satisfaction. "As the number of choices we face increases, freedom of choice eventually becomes a tyranny of choice. Routine decisions take so much time and attention that it becomes difficult to get through the day." A mom's day is already difficult enough, dealing with meltdowns, school issues, food choices, sibling squabbling and (fill in the blank) ____________. How can a mama be confident in her decision making on these issues and so much more, and not get bogged down in the process? Here are some ideas: Decide what really matters. For example, if how to get your child to do chores matters more to you than what type of yogurt to purchase, then you'll spend more time and energy on the chore solutions. Limit your choices. Look at three different stores or ask only three different people you respect for advice. Or visit only three online reputable sites for ideas on the decision you're dealing with. Don't compare your decisions to others. Each mom is as unique as her own fingerprint. What you decide may be different than your mother, sister or friend and that's OK. Trust you've made the right decision for your unique situation. Choose to move on. Once you make a decision, don't second-guess yourself. We all make mistakes and can learn from them. As moms, we make practically as many decisions in a day as we take breaths — not only for ourselves, but also for our children. Becoming confident in our decisions will help the whole family because confidence is contagious. If you don't know what you're doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help. You'll get his help, and won't be condescended to when you ask for it. Ask boldly believingly, without a second thought. – James 1:5-6 (The Message) Jean Blackmer is Publishing Manager for MOPS International. She's the author of Boy-sterous Living!

I usually hang onto fins that don't work in one board in the hope they'll work in another...sometimes though it never happens. I bought a set of Sunny Garcias tried them in a few different boards and never worked for me, gave up and sold them.
Jesus is coming, look busy!
Moving forward or just spinning faster?
5'8 RF Vanguard 32.2L FCS H3 quad
6'0 FST Dominator 34.8L FCS PC SF4 quad + stabiliser
6'0 FST Spitfire 34.9L FCS PC R2 quad + stabiliser
6'2 FST Jacknife 33.3L FCS PC quad front/rear TC Redlines/TC Aqualines
6'2 FST Hellfire 33.7L FCS PC R2 quad + stabiliser (x 2, yes 1 here, 1 there!)
6'4 FST Alternator 34.?L FCS PG7
6'7 FST Hellrazor 36.5L FCS R2 thruster
6'5 FST Hellrazor 33.5L FCS coming
Yeah I think something like the SP is the only board I'd use them in. I like the most neutral fins possible in my shortboards.
I have the same feeling about the Sunny's but haven't sold them off.
The centre fin is in a FCS single fin box adaptor and I can't get it out so there it stays.
49 yrs, 6'1", 92kgs. Surfing many moons grasshopper and I like plenty of foam. Potatonator 6'4" FST- Stretch or DVS quad fins, CI twin + trailer fin.
Pete, I should have taken your advice on the Indo Fins for only a few £ difference but was a bit worried about getting stung with an £8 customs handling fee + 20% VAT and then ending up an expensive set of fins...
Sunny Garcias are about the only FCS fin I havent tried. Still looking for that immaculate set on ebay for less than retail....one day. PRJ make your own mind about them..I know you will but I know about half a dozen guys that love them....I just didnt. If they werent popular FCS wouldnt have made the latest carbon kevlar version of them...so someone must love them.
Yeah I've got mates who liked them in short boards in smaller conditions. We'll see!
I used to have the LB1s (gasp, Layne Beachely Oooh, eerrrr, girly fins) which were PC versions of the H2's.
Great fins in thrusters.
49 yrs, 6'1", 92kgs. Surfing many moons grasshopper and I like plenty of foam. Potatonator 6'4" FST- Stretch or DVS quad fins, CI twin + trailer fin.
Yeah, I truly hated those fins. It was those fins that had me firmly in the camp that said all the expensive fins were a marketing con. I've definitely resiled from that, but while I can say when I don't like a fin I honestly find it hard to differentiate between performance characteristics of fins I do like.
Interesting. I keep trying fins until I come up with the perfect set for that board then I never change them (or rarely change them). I can tell the difference a good fin makes versus a fin that isnt working for that board. I give it a few goes but rarely does that first impression change. See I couldn't believe people actually liked H2's. I had a very open mind about them but just couldn't get them to work for me. I even bought a new set after I sold my first set because I thought I must have missed something that everyone else was getting. Second set left me just as disappointed as the first. I will say however the h3's work particularly well for a round tail quad I have so I like them. But they didn't work in an eps/epoxy, parabolic railed 6 channel quad I had made for me...horses for courses.

New Experiences
As a second year Civic Corps member I was in a unique position when I was placed at iMentor, a youth mentoring organization in the Financial District in lower Manhattan. This year I have been involved in the behind the scenes work that revolves around mentor recruitment, mentor training and screening. My initial start at iMentor was a bit intimidating. The organization is very well staffed with professionals who have very diverse backgrounds in employment as well as in life experiences.
Through all of the introductions to staff as well as being immersed into an office culture I was not accustomed to, I was always treated with respect and was presented with professional development opportunities that allowed me to grow as a person and adopted staff member. As this experience comes to an end, I look back at my time at iMentor with fond memories of all that I was involved in. What I enjoyed the most at my time at iMentor was the borough targeted recruitment campaign to increase our mentor capacity. I would travel to Harlem, Brooklyn and even host a meeting at the iMentor headquarters.
Through those experiences I built my public speaking capabilities and also my confidence to speak on behalf of iMentor. I am happy the opportunity presented itself for me to be part of such an amazing organization. I have gained valuable work credentials as well as a network of people who can be utilized during the next phase of my life as a professional inspired to make change happen in the public sector.

You may have heard of a disease called FIV or Feline AIDS, but what is it and can it be cured? Today, we'll learn more about FIV in this edition of Pet Pointers.
FIV was first isolated by researchers at UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine in 1986 and is now identified all over the world. Humans cannot be infected with FIV this disease is exclusive to cats.
FIV weakens a cat's immune system, and if they pick up a bacteria or virus they could become very sick from an otherwise harmless exposure. A cat can have no symptoms of FIV for many years until they are ill. Signs of FIV in cats may include poor coat condition, fever, and loss of appetite or behavior changes.
Infection commonly occurs when an FIV positive cat bites another cat. Often it is free-roaming, aggressive male cats are the most likely to be infected, while cats that are only indoors are much less likely to be infected. Sexual contact is not a major means of transmission and infected mother cat can pass FIV to her kittens but not necessarily. Before you bring a new kitten into a home with other cats be sure to have the kitten tested. If they test FIV positive, have them tested every 60 days until they are six months old, there could have been a false positive reading which often happens with an FIV positive mom. Do not be alarmed if healthy cats come into contact with FIV positive cats unless they play rough. Normal contact will not spread infection but biting could.
If a cat is FIV positive work with your vet to provide treatments that will keep the disease in check. Many FIV positive cats live long happy healthy lives with proper attention and care.
Feline FIV is not a death sentence and can be managed with help from your vet.

The views of Florida senator Marco Rubio now we know they'll give the Republican response to president Obama's State of the Union Address coming up on Tuesday.
In English and in Spanish.
Party leaders usually been -- rising -- to give the prime -- speech senator reveal follows former Indiana governor Mitch Daniels the Wisconsin congressman Paul Ryan.
The year before he began the president's vice presidential -- the Virginia governor rob McDonald and Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal who you may recall really didn't get rave reviews.
The fox -- chief correspondent Jonathan Hunt is here so Jonathan probably no coincidence in this case that he became one of the leading.
Voices of the immigration issue.
Yeah of course a lot of analysts and indeed many leading Republicans believe that the -- -- -- -- on immigration.
Was one of the reasons if not the main one that the Republicans did so badly.
In terms of the Hispanic vote in the last election twelve point two.
I Hispanics vote and President Obama got 71%.
Of those votes to governor Romney's.
And 27%.
-- stepped forward senator rubio.
One of that bipartisan group of eight senators who -- a series of immigration reform proposals last month just ahead of the president.
Senator rubio of course is that some of Cuban immigrants in the eyes of many Republicans -- -- Saturday himself is baffled the perfect man.
To lead the Republican I reach on this issue listen.
I am clearly new to this issue in terms of the senate.
I'm not -- -- in terms of my life five live surrounded by immigrants my neighbors are immigrants.
My family's immigrants married into a family of immigrants I see immigration every single day I think the good of -- and asked -- how important is for our future.
As most Americans I recognize how critical and immigration system that works has been for our heritage as it is for our history for our future.
Now that senator rubio is also told tough on border security back taxis and probationary.
Far on -- documented.
Immigrants as he seeks to balance the conservative pop -- his body that has always supported him with the centrist both feet.
And the Republicans as a whole need for elections -- seeking to balance seeking -- -- in 2016.
While cook one would certainly think so and his supporters hope that this role.
Will boost him as he tries to do that but he's got some work to do.
This poll was taken by Fox News back in December -- -- he is up front and center role in the immigration debate but I had Chris Christie.
At 26%.
Paul Ryan congressman Ryan you see there -- 22%.
Senator rubio at 17%.
None of the above.
Above Marco Rubio with 21%.
-- this state of the union response will thrust him -- into the spotlight but.
You know as many have find out -- him that spotlight can certainly brightened up political stock -- But it could also -- one and there is a long way to go apple and a lot of politics before we get to 2060.
Yeah for sure Jonathan thanks Marco Rubio after the president on Tuesday night will catch -- down to Washington for the state of the union.
And bring -- studio B and fox report live from Washington that's next Tuesday.

Interesting. Judicial candidate Debra Steinsaltz doesn't name names, yet all South Florida has seemingly associated a story shared at a recent judicial forum with the very person that has talked up the family bio to anyone that will listen as a personal platform to steamroll hateful lawmaking through the Florida legislature as well as South Florida, particularly so in Miami.
And obviously, continues to do so as noted in a blog post written by Buddy Nevins of BrowardBeat.com.
I'd say Debra Steinsaltz has thrown the door to a kitchen that is certainly not clean.
Read on, especially when Mr. Book discusses ethics.
Candidate Debra Steinsaltz should have thought before she spoke at the second Broward Judicial Watch judicial forum on Thursday.
Answering a question, Steinsaltz told the forum audience that she once had a client who was a nanny accused of molesting the child of a major political insider.
During the preparation for the trial, Steinsaltz said she learned many things about the victim's family and hinted the family had deep dark secrets which would cause them "embarrassment".
Although she never mentioned the victim's name, it was obvious to everybody I talked to at the forum that she was referring to the family of Ron Book. He lives in Plantation and is one of the state's best known and most ubiquitous lobbyists.
Assistant Public Defender Steinsaltz defended, Waldina Flores, a nanny convicted of molesting Book's daughter Lauren a decade ago.
(...)A livid Book now says he is interested in helping Steinsaltz's opponent, County Judge Peter Skolnick. Book could raise Skolnick thousands of dollars easily.
Barry Harris, Steinsaltz campaign consultant, had no comment.
Reached by telephone after the forum, Book said that Steinsaltz's "ethics speak for themselves. This is typical of a (Broward Public Defenders) office that conducted themselves in an unprofessional manner throughout this entire case."
Book said one assistant PD was so "unprofessional" that he was "forced to file a Bar grievance against him." The Assistant PD was taken off the Flores case.
Steinsaltz handled the second Broward case involving Flores. After she was sent to prison for molesting Lauren Book, the former nanny violated the rules of her original sentence by writing the teenager.
She was prosecuted again and got 10 years for the letter writing added to her original 15-year sentence.
Book said that Steinsaltz was obviously "using the words of a pedophile" about his family in an attempt to "further her candidacy."
"This is a woman who deficated (sic) and urinated on my child and then fled the state before she was caught. If this candidate wants to use this case and her defense of this pedophile, I believe the voters can make their own decision."
Book said he doesn't know Skolnick from "Adam's housecat" but he would be interested in helping his campaign. He also said he would review the tape of the judicial forum to see if there was "further action" he should take against Steinsaltz.
Lauren Book recently decided against a Broward County School Board run.

Posts Tagged 'Serpent'
Ohio Dragon
BETHEL — I was taking a picture in my yard of beautiful storm clouds on November 30, 2009 and when I got the pictures back, this serpent-like thing appeared in the upper left-hand corner. I took several pictures of this scene at the same time, but nothing showed up on the other pictures. If it was a hair or debris on the lens it more than likely would have shown up on the other pictures. This thing is in the negative.
Note: The witness raises a valid point that the object should have showed up in other photos in the session if it was debris on the lens. In addition the object is in focus on infinity setting. If it was debris on the lens, it would more than likely have been out of focus. The witness scanned the photos from her "point and shoot" 35 mm camera. Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest

Wow, thanks for trying the idea out. ANd I must say, I like the looks on you! You can pull anything off. I really like the first and the last ones, but all are super! The first is very spring wear due to colors, and the last (think the most fave pic) is more fall winter. But I love them!!!!

how balenciaga is the floral dress!? gosh that sounded like a such a pretentious statement, but it's so similar, amazing. i really like the purple jeans, the perfect shade.
- March 12, 2008 at 8:41 AM
- poppy lee said...
i love the floral dress with the purple. i think coloured jeans - esp if the co-ordinate with the dress - work really well. mainly as there seems to be a point to wearing them, rather than it looking like you just slung on a dress over your basic denims.
- March 12, 2008 at 8:47 AM
- Charlotte said...
Cute outfits! My fav is the picture bottom left - love the dress and the shoes are so special!

Wow! I love love love the purple jeans...I spent years looking for jeans like those when I was in my purple phase without any luck...they are fabulous!
I adore the second outfit...its perfectly put together. The purple belt with the jeans and the cute pumps tying back to the black dress.
I really like the length of the dress in the last one...and the scarf in your hair..and then the bright cardi really stands out...its a great outfit too.
You should definately do the dress over jeans more often it suits you...and its great for when its cold! - March 12, 2008 at 9:07 AM

All your dresses are beautiful. Anyway, which one did you like the most? I think the last one is so perfect!

I think it looks really great. My favourite outfit is the one with the blue & green floral print dress and the purple pants. The purple pants are killer.

I could never decide if I like or not the whole jeans-over-dress look but I have to admit that you really do pull it off.
I love love love the purple jeans, the color is so pretty! - March 12, 2008 at 11:23 AM

The floral dress and sanda in the third picture is very Balenciaga! And love the purple jeans..
- March 12, 2008 at 12:23 PM

very cute. the second to last look is very balenciaga and i adore the simplistically chic vibe of the last shot!
- March 12, 2008 at 12:24 PM
- piffig said...
I like the look in the last picture, because of the shortness of the dress. In general though my feelings on dresses over jeans, or pants, is, um, "don't". Mainly because it reminds me of 1997 when everyone wore those horrid jazz pants with skirts stitched onto them.
- March 12, 2008 at 12:51 PM
Well, it's just my opinion, but your legs look much better in tights ;0)

I love the last look: cute pants.

Jeans definitely work in these cases...especially as they're skinny enough.... I'll never know how flares under dresses work...
- March 12, 2008 at 1:52 PM
- Ninja said...
I really like the first and last one, I've never been a fan of dresses over jeans but you seem to make it work.
- March 12, 2008 at 1:59 PM

yeah its a really nice idea looks great... i love the last outfit!x

The first dress and the purple pants are amazing!
I discovered your blog last night and proceeded to read every single post. I read a lot of blogs, but this is definitely my favourite one. I love your blog because it has so much character. I especially love your posts on different artists. This blog is just extraordinary! - March 12, 2008 at 3:52 PM
- Camilla said...
I like the first look a lot! The shirt dress is really cute. Where did you get it?
- March 12, 2008 at 4:24 PM
The last one works best. I always think you should only wear jeans under dresses which are nearly too short to be dresses!
- March 12, 2008 at 7:06 PM
- diamondcanopy said...
Those purple jeans are perfect! I occassionaly wear jeans under my shorter dresses...

i love the middle two! the shoes, the colours...
the blue floral dress reminds me a little of a balenciaga dress...
and thanks SO much for the advice! what an amazing shoot!!! - March 14, 2008 at 12:51 PM
- Fenke said...
i like it - especially since the jeans are all skinny fit, so it's almost the same as wearing them over leggins.

Form input text color on blur
I have a login form with placeholder text defined with a gray color. I would like when a user enters there name into the username input and then clicks the password input field to have the font color on the username switch back the the gray of the placeholder text. Is there a way to do this with only CSS or do I have to use Javascript?Thats what I have in place now. I would like the user entered text to remain the black as focus is changed to the next input to show that the user has filled that input.Aha...found what I was looking for:
Search google and CSS-Tricks has the answer all along: http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/style-placeholder-text/@death180 That's not what he wants.
He wants the placeholder to be 'grey'
A color for text being input (as it's input)...can be any color
A (possibly) third color (black) to show the entered text once the user moves on to the next box.
