News Release: Ottawa Senators surpass milestone of more than $100,000,000 in community contributionsby Staff Writer / Ottawa Senators
OTTAWA – Eugene Melnyk, owner of Senators Sports & Entertainment, announced today that the franchise has surpassed the $100 million mark in community contributions to the National Capital Region since its return to the National Hockey League in 1992.
The Ottawa Senators (@Senators) together with its charitable arm, the Ottawa Senators Foundation (@sensfoundation), which was founded in 1998, have worked to raise and distribute funds that have enabled positive life changes for children in eastern Ontario and western Quebec in the areas of education, health care, sports and recreation.
"Investing more than $100 million in our community is truly a collective effort working with important partners that include all three levels of government, sponsors of the Senators, dedicated volunteers, all our employees including those at our Foundation, our local media and our generous donors," said Senators owner Eugene Melnyk. "Today is about celebrating what we can all achieve by working together towards the greater good of community."
The $100 million in community contributions into the National Capital Region by Senators Sports & Entertainment includes more than $59 million in community projects, more than $25 million in contributions to charities and minor hockey and more than $21 million in community programs and in-kind donations.
The varied community accomplishments of the Senators include the newest milestone investment, the $26 million Richcraft Sensplex built in Ottawa's east end, which officially opened to the public on Aug. 5. This new facility is the second four-pad arena that Senators Sports & Entertainment has opened, joining Kanata's Bell Sensplex that opened in 2004.
As part of the Senators community commitments, the team will also officially kick-off its inaugural Summer Hometown Tour today, that will feature a caravan of Senators players making its way through Aylmer and Gatineau, Que., in addition to Arnprior, Barrhaven, Brockville, Cornwall, Hawkesbury, Kingston, Pembroke, Rockland and Smiths Falls, Ont. The six-day tour will run from Aug. 19 to Aug. 21 and from Aug. 26 to Aug. 28.
The vast community contributions and activities have also allowed for more than 475,000 people (nearly half of the current Ottawa-Gatineau population) to participate in at least one Senators Sports & Entertainment philanthropic event.
In addition to the community investments made by Senators Sports & Entertainment, a University of Ottawa economic impact study completed earlier this year revealed that the organization and its partner companies contribute more than $204 million annually (direct and indirect) to Ottawa-Gatineau region. These results can be conservatively extrapolated to estimate that the club has generated more than $3 billion (direct and indirect) in economic activity for the region since the return of the Ottawa Senators to the NHL in 1992.
Highlights of the Senators community contributions
- The Ottawa Senators Hockey Club and Ottawa Senators Foundation provide significant financial and social support to those who need it the most through contributions to Roger's House, the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario, Queensway Carleton Hospital, Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation, CSSS de Gatineau and The Royal Ottawa Hospital. Additional initiatives and programs are also supported with smaller localized healthcare organizations who work tirelessly to make life better for those in need.
- The Senators have funded the local community RINK project with the Senators Rink of Dreams, located outside of Ottawa City Hall, acting as the first location.
- In addition to the Senators Rink of Dreams, the Senators have built two new Sens RINK projects in the community at Jules Morin Park and Bayshore Park, while six more - including one in Smiths Falls and five in Gatineau - have been committed to be constructed.
- The Senators have built and operate both the Bell Sensplex (opened 2004) and the new Richcraft Sensplex (opened 2014).
- Since the inaugural Eugene Melnyk Skate for Kids in 2004, more than 1,000 helmets and pairs of skates have been distributed to youth throughout the region, along with the special opportunity for children to skate at an NHL arena.
- This season the Senators held their Canadian Armed Forces Appreciation Night for the 10th consecutive season since Mr. Melnyk took ownership of the club. The Senators have hosted more than 20,000 members of the military and their families since the first Canadian Armed Forces Appreciation Day. To date, $702,056 has been raised for the Ottawa Senators Foundation/Military Families Fund Endowment. This fund has awarded 124 bursaries to deserving students who want to further their educational pursuits.
- The Bell Capital Cup is recognized as one of the world's largest international hockey tournaments with more than 300 minor hockey teams, 5,000 participants and 25,000 spectators from around the world. The five-day tournament has an economic impact of $12-14 million for the National Capital economy every year and has contributed more than $2.5 million back to local charities and minor hockey.
- Senators Sports & Entertainment, along with the Ottawa Senators Foundation, over the past year alone has donated more than, 3,000 pieces of autographed merchandise, 45 luxury suites for hockey or concerts, 2,000 game tickets and 2,000 pieces of hockey equipment were collected during the 2013-14 season and provided to children in the Equipment for Kids Program.
- During the 2013-14 season the Ottawa Senators Foundation in partnership with Canadian Tire and the City of Ottawa, gave more than 535 kids aged 6-12 new skates, helmets and skating lessons in the I Love to Skate program. More then 1,700 children have participated in this program since its inception.
- This year, more than 10,000 participants benefitted from hockey programs, events and clinics hosted by the Senators and their partners including the Bell Capital Cup, Future Sens, Tim Hortons Coaches Clinics, Scotiabank Girls Hockeyfest, Canadian Tire Junior Sens Skills, Sens Alumni Clinics and Scotiabank Skaters program.
- More than 107,000 students and 1,300 teachers across eastern Ontario and western Quebec participate in the Sens@School program, while more than 1,200 students from greater Gatineau watched the Senators practice as part of Sens@School held at the Robert Geurtin Centre in Gatineau in 2013-14.
- The Longest Day of Play, a partnership with the Education Foundation of Ottawa and the Ottawa Carleton District School Board challenges kids to get active for 60 minutes per day for 24 days leading up to the longest day of the year. During the inaugural campaign this May and June more than 4,000 students participated accumulating more than 240,000 hours of activity.
- During the 2013-14 season the Ottawa Senators Foundation contributed 30 per cent of the annual operating budget of Roger's House. The region's only pediatric respite and palliative care centre.
- Senators players, mascot, alumni and staff make more than 1,000 appearances in the National Capital Region each year.

Kona launched two big platforms at this year's Sea Otter Classic: a new Carbon Operator composite downhill bike and a new Super Jake disc brake-equipped 'cross bike. The aim of both bikes is simple: go faster.
Kona's DH platform tightens up
Kona's existing aluminum Operator Supreme is already a popular race chassis, but according to industrial designer Jack Russell, the company was looking to take its flagship gravity machine into a new direction.
"We really weren't trying to iterate that bike. We threw that bike away and were like, let's start with a whole new thing and try to make the raddest bike we can – a totally blank sheet of paper," he told BikeRadar. "When we started, we actually looked at a lot of different suspension designs and stuff like that. We really wanted to make a really responsive, jumpy downhill bike, not a 'plow' bike."
Kona says the Operator Supreme is 300g lighter and twice as stiff as the aluminum model
As a result the new Operator Supreme sports a substantially modified geometry that includes 420mm chain stays (7mm shorter than the aluminum bike) for more agility, just 3.5mm of bottom bracket rise (9mm lower) for a more planted feel at high speed and through corners, and a lower main pivot for less chain growth through the 200mm of travel.
While Kona set out to create a new personality for the Carbon Operator, the new bike carries on with the company's familiar modified four-bar linkage architecture. The leverage ratio has been tweaked, however, with less of a falling rate initially so the bike will tend to sit up a little higher in the travel.
"Our original ideation sketches had a lot of crazy linkages and stuff like that but when we were looking at linkage designs, we really found that doing an evolution of the four-bar walking link we've had forever really gave us the best balance between all these factors," said Russell. "The aluminum Operator was like an updated Stab, which were crazy plow bikes. This one's a lot more responsive. You really know where your rear wheel is and you know what it's doing."
Not surprisingly, the move to carbon fiber construction has also yielded big improvements in stiffness and weight. Russell claims a rigidity jump of 200 percent overall and a frame weight that has decreased from 3.6kg (7.94lb) to 3.3kg (7.28lb).
Massive tube sections, large-diameter pivots and the monstrous upper link contribute to the stiffness
Other technical features include oversized cartridge bearings throughout, a new preloaded 157x12mm rear thru-axle with double pinch bolts to reduce axle twist under load, an enormous aluminum upper link with a massive hollow carbon fiber bridge, a tapered head tube, molded-in ISCG05 tabs on the 104.5mm-wide bottom bracket shell with press-fit cups (uses the same spindle length as standard 83mm-wide threaded shells), and built-in stanchion bumpers on the head tube.
Kona has also made good use of that ultra-wide bottom bracket shell with enormous down tube and seat tube widths to match, plus main pivot bearings that are pushed as far apart as possible for rear-end stiffness.
Plus, the new bike's aesthetics are distinctly cleaner and sleeker than previous editions.
"I was really going for an understated, subtle look," Russell said. "I wanted it to look like a downhill bike that you would ride fast and not look like some feature on the bike is 'the thing' that's more important about it – a subtle, simple, clean look."
Overall, Russell says he and Mandell got what they wanted – a gravity rig that perhaps required a little more skill and attention than a so-called 'couch' bike but one that also holds bigger rewards for a rider who can extract that potential.
The thru-axle threads into one dropout, then is clamped into place with pinch bolts
"When I first rode my proto at Whistler, we rode about half the run and were like, holy shit, I'm not riding this bike fast enough," he said. "My first impression was like, I suck too much. We wanted a bike where the rider would work with the bike to be fast and we got it."
Kona will offer the new Carbon Operator frame in two complete versions: the 'Supreme' flagship with a Shimano Saint group, Fox's latest DHX RC4 rear shock and air-sprung 40 fork, and custom-built wheels with Mavic 729EX rims built on Hope hubs for $7,000; and the standard model with RockShox suspension, a Shimano Zee/SRAM X9 mixed drivetrain, Avid Code brakes, and Sun-Ringlé MTX 33 wheels for around $4,000. UK pricing has yet to be determined. Kona will offer the Carbon Operator as a frame-only as well with pricing TBD.
Carbon fiber Super Jake 'cross racer gets a new carbon frame and disc brakes for MY2014
Meanwhile, Kona's carbon cyclocross platform gets a wholesale revamp with a carbon fiber frameset designed for disc brakes. By mounting the rear caliper inside the rear triangle, Kona was able to pare down the seat stay diameter to just 10mm for a smoother ride while beefing up the chain stays for a snappier feel under power.
Up front is a tapered head tube and new monocoque carbon fiber fork with post-mount caliper tabs, while the PressFit 30 bottom bracket shell will allow for both geared and singlespeed drivetrains depending on the crank and bottom bracket configuration used.
The Super Jake is racy, but it also has fender mounts for more practical purposes
While Kona intends the Super Jake to be a flagship race bike, the company also expects it to be used for everyday riding, too. As a result, the frame is also equipped with removable fender mounts front and rear plus dual bottle mounts. Geometry is middle-of-the-road as well with a 62mm bottom bracket drop, 425mm-long chain stays, head tube angles between 71.2 and 72.5 degrees.
The top-end model will come with SRAM's latest Red/Force 22 hydraulic disc group, Stan's NoTubes Iron Cross tubeless wheels, and a Zipp aluminum cockpit. Pricing is still to be determined.

April 01 Cover ShootPosted in Events on April 1, 2001
2001A Dune Odyssey
If the gonzo photo on this months cover didnt get your attention, maybe a little behind the scenes explanation will. First offno, we didnt drive off a cliff and stuff the truck into the sand. Yes, it was staged in an elaborate attempt to catch your attention, and we think we succeeded, or you wouldnt be reading this now. The idea was simple: Take Editorial Director Cole Quinnells old dead Chevy and winch it into position in the sand dunes, and make it look like it was an accident for our Whoops cover. Next, roll the truck off a dune with an in-cab camera, and presto, we have a cover and a story just for you.
Of course, we had to rent a motorhome and borrow a trailer and 44-inch tires for the truck from Off Road Unlimited. Luckily we got Jp editor John Cappa, and Web editor Tori Tellem to help, along with three winch-equipped vehicles to do the deed.
What ended up as a simple idea took mucho time and energy, but we figure it was worth it. Sure, it looks like the obelisk from a Sci-Fi movie, and it was nearly New Years of 2001, but luckily a bunch of monkeys throwing wrenches didnt dance around the truck at least that we noticed. And before you start whining about ruining a perfectly good truck, how come no one would buy it after months of trying? Hey, we took out the glass and saved it, and there wasnt a bit of straight sheetmetal to begin with. So the General (as it has come to be known) is still for sale, less glass, engine, tranny, transfer case seats, and tires. Make us an offer we cant refuse .

Grow Organic...
· for a healthy & safe food supply
· for a clean & sustainable environment
· for an enjoyable & rewarding experience
...for life!
We only guarantee that the garlic seed we sell is in good, viable condition when we sell it. However, because it will deteriorate quickly over time (within weeks), we expect you to plant it without any delay.
Please note that we do not guarantee your success growing garlic as there are too many variables beyond our control to be able to do so.
We cannot and will not, under any circumstances, accept any responsibility for the many growing and climatic conditions (soil preparation, fertilization, weed and pest control, temperature control, irrigation…etc.) that must be met to ensure the success of your crop.
We strive to bring you good-sized, reasonably priced garlic seed, not the most cosmetically desirable bulbs (which may be available at twice our price from our competitors). Our garlic seed has been harvested mechanically, possibly showing some marks on it as a result.
This being said, we are so confident that you will be satisfied with our garlic, that if any bulb you receive does not meet your expectations, you can return any un-cracked bulbs for a refund, excluding shipping costs (either way) within 3 (three) days of your purchase, or delivery, whichever is later, to request an exchange or a refund.
Accordingly, please inspect your entire garlic shipment upon arrival, as you must notify us of any problem within 3 (three) days of purchase, or delivery, whichever is later, to request an exchange or a refund.
Please read our full Garlic Germination Limited Guarantee here.
We have assembled a great selection of gourmet, garlic varieties for you to choose from. Garlic is easy to grow and very rewarding, not to mention delicious to cook with. We've searched the continent for the best varieties and negotiated low prices for you.
This season, we will have all the same varieties of garlic that we've sold over the last 5 years, but most of them will no longer be certified organic, as they have been in the past. Our main grower is now growing on new land and it will take several years to get it certified. We do have several varieties that are certified organic this year, including Chesnok Red, Killarney Red, and Inchelium Red
Organic Gardening Resource Center - Your Source Since 1976!
There are two main families of garlic: Softnecks and Hardnecks. Depending on the flavor you're looking for (hardnecks usually have stronger flavors) or the shelf life you desire (softnecks generally store longer), you'll be able to find what you want.
One lb of garlic seed equals approx. a 25' row with 6" spacing between plants. For most garlics, expect an optimum 10 lb yield for every lb planted.
Garlic is exceptionally winter-hardy. Fall is the time to plant for best yields and highest quality bulbs. Generally the best months to plant are September to October. In very cold areas, plant by mid-October, and protect your crop with a thick layer of mulch such as straw. November is late to plant garlic, December is marginal. Expect to harvest it in June to July.
Garlic needs fertile soil with good drainage. Take care not to plant garlic or onions in the same place you've previously grown them for at least 3 years to reduce the potential for white rot and other diseases.

Heathrow Express books USA Rugby a ticket to IRB Rugby World Cup 2015
HONG KONG, China – USA Rugby announced Saturday Heathrow Express, the premium Heathrow Airport-to-central London train service, as an official partner - just hours after booking a berth to the IRB Rugby World Cup 2015 (RWC) in England next year.
The Eagles beat Uruguay 32-13 in Atlanta Saturday in the return leg of their RWC qualifier, having drawn the first leg 27-27 in Montevideo Saturday, March 29. Yesterday's win sees America join South Africa, Samoa, Scotland and an Asian qualifier in Pool B of the competition.
Nigel Melville, chief executive of USA Rugby, said: "Rugby is one of the fastest-growing team sports in the U.S., with around one million Americans currently involved. Qualifying for the 2015 Rugby World Cup will see U.S. interest in rugby boom like never before.
"Bringing a UK-based partner like Heathrow Express on board will help support the development of our national teams and the growth of rugby in the U.S., and support our 2015 Rugby World Cup campaign as well as the development of the Eagles as a global sporting brand. It is also the quickest and most comfortable way for fans to get into the heart of the 2015 Rugby World Cup's host city."
Heathrow Express is the gateway to central London, connecting with Paddington station, from which other train links run to Twickenham and other RWC stadia.
Today's announcement of a partnership across the 15-aside and seven-aside forms of USA men's and women's rugby supports Heathrow Express' intent to grow its American customer base, and broadens its existing relationship with rugby.
The U.S. is Heathrow Express's largest non-UK market. Seventeen percent of the six million people a year who currently use the luxury rail-air link are Americans, mainly from the east coast.
Keith Greenfield, Heathrow Express managing director, said: "We are thrilled to be partnering USA Rugby, who I'd like to congratulate on their qualification for the 2015 RWC.
"In 2014 Heathrow Airport is set to welcome 9.3 million Americans. The challenge for us is to let American business people and holidaymakers know about our premium train service before they arrive in England. Partnering the mighty Eagles is part of our plan to do that.
"Americans tend to hail taxis when they arrive at Heathrow. But if they're going into central London, our premium, non-stop service gets them there far quicker, for far better value and in a far greater degree of comfort. As interest in rugby grows on the other side of the Atlantic, we hope the 2015 RWC will see even more Americans coming to London to help us roar on the Eagles."
Under the terms of the sponsorship deal, Heathrow Express logos will appear on the back of Eagles players' shorts and shirts.
Today's announcement was made in Hong Kong, where the USA Rugby Men's Eagles Sevens team is competing in the IRB HSBC Sevens World Series.

Even as we recognize the achievements of our generation and take pride in the remarkable advancements in business, science and technology, civil rights, space exploration, and the many medical advances that have marked our progress, there is another side to the story, a side that history will not ignore, and one which has created as grave a challenge to our nation as Americans have faced in many years.
Over the last 50 years the United States has participated in a series of foreign wars and diplomatic decisions that have resulted in changes to our culture in significant ways; we have witnessed a decline of our educational system to the point that parents worry about the ability of their children to compete in a modern world, or even to find work in their home state; we have watched as local business and manufacturing concerns have left for other states or foreign countries; tax policies have led to national, state and local debt of staggering proportions. All these things, and a host of other social, economic and political problems, have coalesced to create a loss of faith in government and those who manage it. This has generated apathy, an attitude of surrender to fate that is unparalleled in our lifetime.
Having said these things, it is not my intention to have you leave here today with a feeling of despair about our future. While we face formidable challenges, it is also true that we are Americans. We are children of "The Greatest Generation"; we are all descendants of that remarkable group of people who conceived and built this nation. We are the inheritors of a tradition that in only two and a quarter centuries of world history has been widely recognized as the "light of the world." The question before us is this: Do we still have what it takes to control our destiny, or are we going to step back and allow others to determine it for us?
For the past 10 years, as this organization has evolved, it has been my privilege to meet and come to know a very special group of Rhode Islanders, many of whom are in this room this morning. That experience has left me with the conviction that we have in this state one of the most priceless assets existing anywhere – an assemblage of well educated, broadly experienced men and women, many of them retired or in their later years, who know what America was intended to be. They understand its challenges; they still possess the special capabilities required to guarantee its future. In my view, you who are here today represent the critically important "special interest" that must, and I repeat must, not retire from active duty. You – and your colleagues – still have it within your power to play a major role in creating and sustaining the force required to defeat the apathy that has allowed us to backslide as a state and nation.
It is instructive to take a moment to look around this room. What do you see? I see love of country. I see love of family. I see love of accomplishment. I see educated, experienced, thoughtful people who have proved that they can overcome a challenge.
What I don't see is many faces under 40 years of age. Why? Where are they and what are they thinking? This is their country; what does the future hold for them? We need them; they need to be involved!
You remain a vital factor in realizing the hope of America. The only thing we need to complete the picture is to see that intense fire in the eye that says to all around you: Come with me or get out of the way!
I want to draw your attention to another picture.
This is the well known artistic representation of George Washington, standing on the bow of a small boat about to cross the Delaware River on a bitter cold Christmas Eve in 1776. Behind him is a small band of ill-fed, ill-clothed soldiers, fresh from a series of depressing defeats, about to leave the safety of the western shore of the Delaware to meet the British-paid Hessian mercenaries in Trenton. Think what must have been going through their minds: "If we lose, we will surely die; if we win and survive, the war goes on, our suffering continues, and we may still die."
Now place yourself on that shoreline, on that night. Ask yourself: Am I going to step into that boat, or am I going to step aside and wait to hear the result?
Fortunately, today ours is a different, though no less critical, challenge.
Ours is the challenge to build an educated, thoughtful, involved citizen-taxpayer organization that can make a positive contribution to the solution of the problems of this state. In order to do that, however, we must mount a strong campaign to build a membership that will project a voice that will be heard in every town or city council, and in the State House. We need your sons, daughters and grandchildren to help us as we move forward to establish meetings across the state, as we reach out to your neighbors and friends to gain their membership. We need your ideas, your enthusiasm, and your help, and, yes, we need the financial support that will sustain and strengthen our efforts. I ask you now to join with us in spreading the word. Take it to your friends and neighbors. Urge them to do as you have done, become an active member of the RI Taxpayers.
Our communities, our state and our nation stand before us in need of the best that each of us can bring to the solution of our common problems. As we leave this room this morning, remember that when our future is on the line, the choice is yours: Will you step into the boat? Or will you leave it to others to face the challenge?
Thank you all for coming and may God Bless America.
Harry Staley is chairman of the Rhode Island Taxpayers organization. He made these remarks at the conclusion of the group's annual meeting May 11.

Why Eclipse is Broken: Wow.com Guest Post
I've been seeing a lot of posts lately about what everyone thinks is wrong with Eclipse. A vast majority of those posts basically boil down to "I don't like Eclipse because it doesn't proc when I want it to. (aka - it is to random). Well I disagree. The post I wrote for WoW.com goes over why I disagree and takes a look at what I consider to be the real issues with Eclipse. Also, check out the comments. There are a lot of good ones from Murmurs, Lissanna and other folks.
Anyway, I want to say thanks to Dan O'Halloran the Managing Editor at WoW.com for giving me this opportunity. It was quite an honor.

I saw your guest post this morning on wow.com! Congrats. I think it summed up quite nicely the problems moonkins are currently having in raids.
Great job! Hopefully you'll be asked to write more. :)
- February 5, 2010 at 1:24 AM
Very very good post.
Its nice to know the developers at Blizzard are aware of the issue.
Nice one dude. keep it up! :)

I also read your post. Enjoyed it a lot!
Any chance on you writing up something on the flaws of Nature's Grace as such a low tier spell? I was thinking about writing an article on it, but don't want to re-invent the wheel if you've got one in the pipeline.
- February 5, 2010 at 7:58 AM
i agree with this xD
in mmy point of view blizz need to nerf eclipse and buff some of the other talents... dont get me wrong i love the mechanics and "feel" of the eclipse proc its what makes a boomkin's dps rotation fun and uniqe BUT from what ive seen is that we need atleast 30secs-1minute to get the full effect from our damage and i cant think of many fights in icc where we get to do that so my solutuin would be to maybe nerf eclipse a but and instead buff some other talents (like they just did with the 3% damage increase)
- February 5, 2010 at 8:08 AM
Very well done
- February 5, 2010 at 8:47 AM
You and Tyler keep talking about how much you disagree with each other, but do you really? Isn't this post almost exactly what he wrote in the official forums some time ago, but with a bit mathier outlook? :p

Congrats, Graylo. :)
I read your post in Wow Insider yesterday: it is as good as usual. Besides being useful for other balance druids, I think what makes it really interesting is that explains to RL and other raiders who have no idea about moonkins what's the problem with our unpredictable dps.

Thanks for bringing the problems with eclipse to a wider audience. Most people have no idea about moonkin rotations, haste caps and crit caps. Hopefully this can help a few more people understand.
- February 5, 2010 at 10:10 AM
Excellent post. I can point my friends and fellow raiders to that so they can better understand my swings in dps on heavy movement fights. Most people don't roll moonkin alts or even raid with them.
I have kind of an odd question to put out there. We know we have a much higher potential dps with a properly budgeted Eclipse and a fix/change to Nature's Grace. Do you think Blizzard is fine with where Moonkins stand in overall dps, compared to the other dps classes?
We aren't ever topping the charts unless we severely out-gear and outplay everyone around us. If they were to fix all of our issues I think our dps would skyrocket and then they'd have to worry about keeping pure classes at a clearer advantage.
As an answer to my own question, look at other hybrids- Ferals, Deathknights and Ret paladins. They aren't pure dps but they can beat pure dps more consistently.
- February 5, 2010 at 5:13 PM
uhmm megami tbh i dont think blizz are satisfied with boomkins atm since they just gave us a 3% dmg increase that must mean they want us to do more damage xD
- February 5, 2010 at 5:33 PM
- Tyler said...
Graylo and I really don't disagree on all too many things, it's true. Most of what we disagree on are the minor details.

@ Megami
Form what i have seen in my ICC raids is that feral druids and unholy DKs are topping the DPS,so i dont think Blizz has any problem with hybrid classes... just moonkins
- February 5, 2010 at 7:10 PM
I'm just very annoyed that our problems carry over from each expansion and then it's always "can't fix it until the next expansion!". =(
- February 5, 2010 at 7:56 PM
I think my other big issue with Eclipse is Heroism/Bloodlust. It's obviously a consequence of the haste cap, but it sucks that other classes shoot way up in the meters during heroism and I can barely hold my place if I'm able to time my lunar eclipse to proc during bloodlust :\
Also, <1sec wraths give me carpal tunnel syndrome. I remember our old "IS->SF->SF->SF" rotation being more boring, but easier on the left hand.
- February 6, 2010 at 9:31 AM
- Shem said...
Good summary.
I think that the "simplest" fix would be to make NG a crit proc and have a lunar eclipse give haste.
Requiring a crit to proc a crit is a bit weird- but Fury warriors have the same thing in Rampage.
40% haste on Starfire and 20% crit from Nature's Grace would avoid both haste and crit caps. It's a bandaid, but I think an adequate one.
- February 7, 2010 at 2:49 PM
Yeah i do think druids are broken and i can see why basically everything you put in your post but the most important no real moving attacks. I come from a hunter background and if i had the same gear level on my hunter i would be 5ooo dps in a 10 man and with my boomer i can only reach 3500-4000 tops and then if i have to move watch my dps drop bigtime. I know the hunter class is broken too as its not leveling well with the high end gear but not as bad as the Moonkins out there. However i like the heals with 3 hots you can cast on the run why not give us boomers another dps spell which can be casted on the move to try and help rectify the mess.
- February 9, 2010 at 12:00 AM
I too am getting massive cramps in my left hand with 1 sec wraths. It hurts soo bad!
I also don't notice an increase in damage with heroism.
But a question....
Glyph of Moonfire... is it worth dropping for the heavy movement fights, just to spam while moving? or is the periodic damage better?
- February 9, 2010 at 3:33 PM
I think the real problem is that it just adds more random inconsistency to a spec already plagued with random procs.

I knew Divine Hymn and Soul Warding were hit. The Penance changed surprised me. I liked my ~6 second cooldown spell. It's not often I'm saddened but in this case, I am one sad panda.
On the bright side:

Source: Energy Manager Today.com by Linda Hardesty
Following close on the heels of last week's finalized energy efficiency standards for metal halide lamp fixtures, the US Energy Department yesterday announced the final rule for new efficiency standards for external power supplies.
The agency says external power supplies, commonly referred to as "wall warts," are used in hundreds of types of electronics and consumer products, including cell phones, tablets, laptops, video game consoles and power tools, to convert power from a wall outlet into lower voltages. More than 300 million external power supplies are shipped in the United States each year and the average American home has five to ten external power supplies. These numbers are expected to continue growing as consumers and businesses purchase new types of personal electronics.

text: As of late Monday afternoon, when I was finishing this column, the most frequently emailed story on The Times's website for the previous week wasn't about the polar vortex, Chris Christie or "Downton Abbey." It was about cats. I suppose that's no big shock. On blogs, on Facebook and all around the Internet, claws and clicks go hand in hand (or is that paw in paw?). While the meek may be inheriting the earth, the furry have already claimed cyberspace. But what is surprising — and indicative of a new chapter in the interactions of Americans and the animals around us — is the focus of the cat story in question.

Hoove is a Mutant Warrior serving under Flogg. One of the more intelligent Mutants, Hoove showed a dedication to his work, and was usually successful in battle. He was one of the first Mutants to fight He-Man in battle, a battle which he and his fellow Mutants lost.
Hoove's main power is that he can deliver powerful punches and kicks.He possesses considerable strength, able to tear a tree up from the ground and swing it around while fighting Flipshot in battle. He is also an excellent pilot, after taking out the Titus Observatory on Primus during an attack, a pleased Flogg remarked - 'That's my Hoove'. When an enormously powerful ship began attacking The Mothership, it was Hoove who lead the Mutant fighters into battle against it.
Hoove is often teamed up with Karatti, the two of them making a deadly duo. Skeletor also showed respect for Hoove, choosing him for important missions, one of which was to trap He-Man during the Mutant occupation of Primus.
Hoove later received a weapons upgrade from the Blacksmith of Crelus, which meant he could now increase the size of his feet and fists,giving him even more powerful punches and kicks in battle. Despite initial difficulties working his new power, he soon became accustomed to it, and had to use his new skills against the Galactic Guardians in 'the Games'.
After being defeated in the Games, Hoove and the other Mutants withdrew from the planet. It was at this point that Flogg decided to launch an all out attack on Primus, as the Guardians had been taken prisoner following the Games. Hoove participated in the final battle,and witnessed Flogg's ultimate defeat and surrender.

25 pound case of Roasted, Salted Cashew Splits
One of the things we often hear from our customers is just how fresh our nuts taste. That's because we do not stockpile our products. In fact, our roasted, salted and glazed nuts are often made to-order. As a result, in some cases, you may expect up to a 5 business day processing period so we can fresh-roast your order.
If you need it, and you need it now (hey, we've all been there!), please contact our Customer Service staff at 1-800-828-7688 during business hours to determine how we might be able to meet your delivery requirements.

Raymond Parrish
I have been helping this wonderful gentleman, Tommy Anderson, put together the genealogical history of his friend Raymond Parrish. We have worked long and hard to fill in the holes in Raymond's history and were quite successful. The genealogy was to be Raymond's 75th birthday present. I received this e-mail from Tommy this morning:
Hi Deb,
I write you with a heavy heart, my friend, Raymond, had a stroke Friday evening and was rushed to the hospital. He is in the intensive care unit, in a semi-coma, paralyzed on his left side, and he has contracted a hospital infection. As you remember Sally and I had planned to take him out on his 75th birth day, December 11, 2006 and give him the surprise family genealogy that you and I have been working on for so many weeks. I did not get a chance to do that and I fear that it may be a long time before he is interested in genealogy, if ever.
Write soon,
I am asking for prayers from all of you for Raymond and for Tommy as well as he prays for his friend. Raymond is the son of Raymond D. Parrish who was the son of Dorsey M. and Zulema Carroll Parrish of Johnston County, NC.

Katie's Story
How We Got Our Start
"I started this company...sort of."
When I was nine years old, I was diagnosed with six different airborne allergies. That's what got my parents, Ryner & Evelyn Wittgens, involved in trying to find different products that could help me feel better. It wasn't easy because the products my allergist asked them to get weren't available locally - if at all. Eventually, they located all the products... and they really worked! I improved wonderfully, just as the allergist had predicted. My dad was so thrilled and had learned so much that he decided to start a company so that these products would be available nationwide - at discount prices. It would also give physicians a reliable place to refer their patients with problems similar to mine. Well that was over 20 years ago, and the company is still doing what my dad set out to do. We've become one of the largest companies of our kind and dad is enjoying his retirement. But what really matters most is that we're helping more and more people find affordable, non-drug ways to feel better.
Katie Weaver (formerly Wittgens)

5.0 Mustang & Super FordsHow To Tech Qa
Tech Questions and Answers - August 2014
10-Second QuestionQ: I think a great article would be all about how to make a '13 Mustang GT automatic go 10.90. Would it need trick setups on parts like shocks, tuning, tire pressure, and changes made in hot and cold weather?
John Quinn
Denton, TX
A: Adam Browne from Revolution Automotive says 10s are uttainable with a naturally aspirated combination. Adam has a customer who added JBA long-tube headers, off-road X-shape crossover pipe, Dynotech aluminum driveshaft, Circle D converter, Weld big 'n' littles with the new Mickey Thompson Drag Radial Pro 275/60s, a Ford Racing Cobra Jet intake with a Super Cobra Jet throttle body, and one of Revolution's cold air intakes. The car makes 430 rwhp on pump gas, and benefits from a front sway bar delete, upper and lower control arms, and relocation brackets. It recently ran a 10.96 at 123 mph, weighing in at 3,700 pounds with the driver, at Maryland International Raceway.
Going the power adder route, any of the street-level kits is going to get your '13 into the 10s. Another of Adam's customers added a Roush TVS blower with minimal exhaust work and drag radials, and that car has run a best of 10.81 at 126 mph. A naturally aspirated combo will run in the 122-to-124-mph range, while a power adder will put you solidly in the 10s at around 125-128 mph. As you see, no trick parts. All of these are off-the-shelf items.
Mmm K-memberQ: I have a '98 Mustang V-6, but I'm putting a 351 Windsor in it. Why do I have to change the K-member to put the 351 in the car? I have a friend who has a '94 Mustang, but he didn't have to change the K-member. What's the difference between the '94 and '98 K-members? I really don't want to change out the K-member if I don't have to.
Al Perkins
Hampton, VA
A: In talking to the helpful folks at Maximum Motorsports, we're told the issue here is that the motor-mount pads are different for a pushrod engine. For the '94-'95 cars, the K-member was the same for the V-6 and pushrod V-8 engines. For the '96-'98 cars, Ford changed the K-member to be compatible with both the V-6 and incoming 4.6L modular engine. The motor mounts are totally different between the two.
Although the '94-'98 Mustang V-6 was essentially unchanged, Ford changed the V-6's motor mounts so they would only need a single K-member application for all '96-'98 Mustangs. Your friend could use his existing '94 K-member because it's compatible with a pushrod engine. However, due to the motor mount change, the '96-'98 K-member is not compatible with a pushrod engine.
The rack location is diffferent, as well, with the '96-'98 cars. The 4.6L modular engine sits an inch lower in the K-member compared to a pushrod combination, which necesssitated lowering the steering rack an inch.
So what are your choices? Maximum makes a tubular K-member for '96-'04 for pushrod applications, but you'll need Maximum's coilover kit, too. Maximum's K-member doesn't have a stock spring provision, so adding the coilovers is a must. Your other option is to get a '94-'95 K-member, but if you go that route, make sure to get the spindles. If you don't get the '94-'95 spindles, you'll have bumpsteer issues due to the aforementioned lowering of the steering rack.
What's Your Number?Q: I'm looking for information on Incon turbo size that ran in an article from years ago in the mag. I have the same Incon turbo kit installed on my '88 Mustang GT and need to rebuild one of the turbos. I know they are Garrets, but I don't know what model. I just bought the car and the turbo kit is awesome.
Joie Costa
St. Petersburg, FL
A: We knew exactly who to call on your Incon turbo question. Lamotta Performance's Jake Lomatta has been a champion of the little-known twin- turbocharger kits since way back. Jake tells us the kits had different size turbos. All of them were very close in size, but Incon bought the center sections from Garrett.
Jake says you should be able to get a part number off the center section and call Precision Turbo [(219) 996-7832] to get an idea on which turbos you have. Precision Turbo can handle the rebuild for you, as well.
We're sure if you have the part number off the center housing as Jake instructs, a simple Google search will help solve the mystery of what turbos you have, and you can go from there.
Virgin of the MonthStroker needs Oxygen
Q: Can you plese help? I'm running a 347 stroker in my '87 Fox, with a Comp Cams roller, GT-40 heads, BBK Performance shorty headers, and the like. I need to know what oxygen sensors to use.
Steve Weikel
Kulpmont, PA
A: With a stroker combination in which air/fuel readings are of utmost importance, we recommend you go straight to Ford for replacement oxygen sensors. Sure, corner auto parts stores will have cheaper oxygen sensors, but this is not an area where you want to go all Cheaper Sleeper on us. We always feel getting genuine Ford oxygen sensors is the best move.

Conscious Capitalism
In his 2009 book, Be the Solution: How Entrepreneurs and Conscious Capitalists Can Solve All the World's Problems, Michael Strong makes two points no human being should ignore.
- 1. The entrepreneurial spirit is one of the most powerful forces – maybe THE most powerful force – for creativity and innovation in human society. Free enterprise liberates that spirit.
- 2. Human endeavors gain energy from a consciousness that incorporates the good of humanity and the health of the planet. Conscious capitalists have an advantage over their competitors.
The book offers compelling evidence. Two chapters are written by John Mackey, founder of Whole Foods Market and, with Strong, co-founder of C3, a nonprofit dedicated to "cultivating conscious capitalists." Mackey's energy and consciousness were instrumental in developing a little Texas health-foods store into an $8 billion Fortune 500 company in just a couple of decades[1].
Another chapter is contributed by Muhammad Yunus, the Nobel laureate economist who started the Grameen Bank when he loaned $27 to 42 poor Bangladeshis in 1976, effectively inventing microfinance. Based on the model he invented, it's estimated that more than 110 million entrepreneurs build their bootstrap businesses with "microloans," worldwide, each year.[2]
A former educator, Strong uses his own experience of starting a charter school in New Mexico as a personal example. Rural New Mexico is not known for high-quality public education. The New Mexico district where I went until 8th grade only gets about 20 percent of its 11th-graders to "proficiency" in science, math and social studies.[3] An administrator from the University of New Mexico told Strong students in his region were "not capable of passing AP (Advanced Placement) courses."
The second year Strong's Moreno Valley High School was open, it ranked in the top 150 schools in the nation for the number of its students enrolled in AP courses. In its third year it was 36th on that list, and its passing rate for standardized AP tests was double the national average[4].
Mackey, Yunus and Strong all tell the story of how human energy expands in an environment where people visualize successful outcomes, and engage personally in creating those outcomes:
Mackey and his colleagues – thousands of whom are also shareholders – created a dominant grocery chain based on the idea that people wanted healthy food and other conscientious products available in an excellent retail environment.
Yunus dramatically changed the lives of hundreds of millions of the world's poorest people, simply by trusting them to use his loans constructively and pay them back on time. At his own bank alone, he's loaned about 8 million[5] very poor people almost $9 billion. The default rate has been around 1 percent.[6] As a comparison, the default rate for business loans guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration was 2.4 percent in 2004 and increased every year after until 2008, when it was about 12 percent.[7] In February of 2010, the default rate on all office properties, retail properties, hotels and industrial properties in the United States was almost 4 percent.[8] According to Moody's Investor Service, the cumulative default rates for all rated companies between 1983 and 1998 – a relatively prosperous period - was 8.64 percent, and even the best "investment-grade" loans to corporations defaulted at a rate of 1.47 percent.[9]
In other words, it might be safer to loan $20, each, to a million small-scale entrepreneurs living in poverty than it is to loan $20 million to a public company in a wealthy nation.

DasUberEdward wrote: »@sportzboytjw
Well if it means anything that pipe itself isn't leaking and I was able to pretty clearly see that the leak came from the sealant cracking. I think I should have been more clear in my previous post because the pipe itself seems to have no defects. There are no signs of cracks anywhere else and fortunately no signs of freezing.
Yesterday after I made the post I ended up going out to pick up some all purpose weld and sealant which I applied yesterday but it recommends 24 hours of time to fully dry. I'll be turning the AC on in a few hours to see what happens and if that doesn't work i'll remove all of the sealant and start from the top. Thanks for the advice everyone.

Man, I really want Sheldon Richardson....I keep coming back to him as the only first round player that really fits our needs in the D-line....I hate it when I feel that way.
Do you think this might be realistically possible?...
Trade Flynn and our 3rd (4th rounder? 5th rounder? 6th rounder?) to Jets in exchange for flip in positions in the first round (i.e. we get pick #9 and Jets get pick #25). At the #6 spot, I think there is a really good chance that Richardson will be available. Maybe Idzik may still bleed a little blue'n'green and help his old team out.
My dream draft
1. Richardson
2. Swope
3. traded
4. Gooden
5. S. Thomas
6. Slay
7. Backup QB
...don't wake me up...

A post to the PC Gamer Blog discusses playing a prerelease copy of Assassin's Creed II for the PC, which includes Ubisoft's new DRM requiring a constant online connection. The story indicates that fears about such a system being disruptive are not unfounded, saying: "If you get disconnected while playing, you're booted out of the game. All your progress since the last checkpoint or savegame is lost, and your only options are to quit to Windows or wait until you're reconnected." They give an example, saying: "So I tried a different test: start the game while online, play a little, then unplug my net cable. This is the same as what happens if your net connection drops momentarily, your router is rebooted, or the game loses its connection to Ubisoft's 'Master servers'. The game stopped, and I was dumped back to a menu screen - all my progress since it last autosaved was lost." They point out that this is what will happen to even the most stable net connection if Ubisoft's master servers go down, saying: "playing a current Ubisoft game is kicked out of it and loses their progress. Even massively multiplayer games aren't so draconian about the internet: you can't play when the server's down, but at least you don't lose anything for getting disconnected."

Trimble Placer GPS 450 used for APRS and controlling Uniden Scanners.
These units are in great shape! It comes with a power cable wired for A , ignition sense, and ground. I am also including a new 6' serial cable, and new GPS antenna. Everything you need to get you APRS mobile or location based scanning (except for the radio).
The Placer 450 units provide:
I will set the GPS up for NMEA 0183 ouput on the MDT port, and will provide a CD with the proper software so that you can adjust any of the parameters. I will also supply you with a .pdf of the owner's manual and technical notes.
I have (4) of the Placer 450s running for APRS with my Kenwood D710s and D700, and I use them for control of my Uniden BCD-996T scanners. They also work great for providing NMEA to my laptop running Delorme mapping software. The uses are endless when it comes to your GPS needs.
Thanks for looking!!
I ship USPS Priority Mail. US only.

At the end of the day, we service clients directly in the areas of public relations, social media (including HIPAA, FDA, FTC, FINRA, IRB compliance) and online marketing. We don't lead with pretty pictures, but we do work with compelling words that change how others see your brand.
We believe there are advantages to our various locations coupled with the high pedigrees of our core team. And we believe that our business model is the wave of the future. We hire experts for each project, and they work with the core team to give our clients the best of breed every time. Staying power matters since successful businesses survive and thrive in tumultuous times. Our results prove there is value to having been here longer than most. Twenty years in the interactive world is no joke, and it comes with a lot of knowledge and a lot of influence. So, come check it out. Read more here and on the blog. We welcome your banter and your partnership, and we even applaud your dissent.

Connecting Permaculture & Transition. Interview with Karen Schulkin,
The San Francisco Seed Library by Willi Paul, PlanetShifter.com Magazine
– excerpt –
"I love the idea of people coming to the library and choosing seeds (that is always exciting)
and the care they take in selection, planting and growing and then the collecting seeds to
bring back. The whole process is so basic and such a wholesome way to connect with
our neighbors and have something in common and something to share with the community. It just feels really good." KS
