Sorry if this is a silly question but what is the difference between these templates in WP, and should they just be the same?
Index is where your blog posts will show (site.com/blog) and home would be your homepage (site.com).
However, you can make the index page your homepage.
So you don't necessarily need to have an Index if you don't have a blog per se? You can simply have the Home.
I'm not sure I would delete it, maybe you'll change your mind. I think blogging is important, not just for others, but for you as well. It shows your progress.
No. You have to have an index. You'd do well to read up on wordpress template hierarchy.
@Brightonmike – thanks, I have just been reading that, hence my confusion. If you not using a blog but just using posts, what should it be used for if I have to have it?
Sorry to labor on this folks. So I can set the Index to be the Home page if I want to, provided the Index template is there at all costs? A Home template is therefore not required. All I need to do is assign the Index to the home page in the back-end if I want that as the basic set-up. Is that right?
If you're using posts, then by definition you're using a blog, I would say. ;)
The list of most recent blog posts is displayed by using the Main Index template (which is called index.php). By default, your home page uses this template.
However, you can change this in your WordPress settings, so that your home page will just show any other page that you have created (General –> Reading), and you can set any page to show your news posts there too; this page will then use the Default index.php template.
I may have confused myself here a bit…. :-/
@Senff – I sort of get it. But if you want Index to be the home page, that is fine? I notice you can't assign the Index template to a page.
@tobeeornot I think that a default WordPress install uses the Index to be the home page anyway indeed, and that's all good.
Indeed, you can't actually assign the Main Index template to any page. It will just be applied to whatever page you decide will be your POSTS page (by default your home page, or the page you set as the home page in General > Reading).
@Senff – Ok, I have assigned the front page to be the Home in the settings and it works fine. I am still a little unclear what the Index file should be used for if you are not using a blog?
What do you mean by the Index file exactly — the file called Index.php? And I'm not sure what you mean when you say you're not using a blog. Does that mean you are not using any Posts, but only (static) pages?
Let's say you have a few blog posts and two static pages, one called "Stuff", the other called "News bits".
By default, the blog posts are being shown on your site's home page (the starting page of your site, AKA front page), using the Main Index Template (a file called Index.php). So if you don't have any posts, it won't show much other than what's in the template.
As for the static pages: both the "Stuff" page and the "News bits" pages use any template you choose (by default this is the Default Template, a file called Page.php) and show whatever content you have entered in WordPress). If this is the behavior you want, then you're done and nothing else to worry about.
Sometimes, you want your site's home page to show something else, like a static page with just content (if you don't use the blog feature, for example). So in this case, you can use your "Stuff" page for that. Going to Settings > Reading and set your front page to be a static page, and set the Front page to "Stuff". However, you also want your blog posts to show somewhere, if you have them. Since they are not shown on the front page anymore, it would make sense to put them on the "News bits" page, so that's the page you should set as Posts page.
Because your "News bits" page is now set as the page where your blog posts will show, this page will now not use the Default template anymore, but the Main Index Template. In fact, whatever content you have entered in your "News" page, and whatever template you've chosen there, will not matter at all now. The posts page will always use the Main Index Template to show the blog posts.
It took me a while to get my head wrapped around this concept, but I hope I got my point across. :)
@Senff – I totally get it now. That is a really clear explanation and I'm petty sure I have got my head around it. I really appreciate you going to lengths that you did in your last post because it wasn't quite clicking before :)
index.php is the fall back for ALL pages.
For your home page, it's recommended using either front-page.php or home.php. Never use index.php for your home page, it should be used as a 'generic' fall back.
I always use front-page.php and set that page in Settings > Reading.
@TheDoc: when you say it's the fall back for all pages, are you referring to the index.php in the root of your site, or the one in wp-content/themes/(themename)/?
The one in the root of your site is indeed the (back-end) page that's used for all pages, but I was referring to the latter. That's (by default) the Main Index Template that is (to the best of my knowledge) only used to show the most recent posts, and it's not used for anything else….or is it? Not 100% sure now, you make me doubt myself. ;)
By default, WordPress uses /wp-content/themes/(themename)/index.php as the template for the posts page. If (like you say) you should never use it for a home page, I would think WordPress would not set it as the default home page template?
Yep, you can make custom templates such as front-page.php or home.php or whateveryouwanttonameit.php to use for the home page, but I'm not really sure if that's what beginners should try to fiddle with right away. And I don't see why index.php (the Main Template) should not be used for that.

Owing to the back-log of Web Diaries waiting to be published in Cambridge, the Last Week's Diary has been Cobbled Together with this week's entry to make a Double-Issue and give Cambridge the time to catch up following the Christmas Holidays.
We did it. We did it. We completed the N9 Relief at the Brunt Ice Shelf, and managed to turn the 'pointed end' to the North and make our way back out of the Weddell Sea by Monday 8th January. It took only a week to complete the relief which is remarkable considering the distances involved in an N9 relief.
The RRS Ernest Shackleton was then about 7 days behind the published schedule and the Captain was anxious to make up for lost time. In our favour, the accumulation of Pack Ice that delayed our entry into the Weddell, had greatly dispersed and therefore our journey to the North was punctuated with only brief periods of working Ice.
The 60nmiles distance from the Brunt Ice Shelf up to Stancomb Wills, which had presented such a difficulty on the Southern-bound direction, was covered in largely open water at the speed of about 11 knots and completed within the first day of steaming. What a difference.
Once clear of the sporadic Pack Ice, the Shackleton made very good time up to Signy in the South Orkneys. There we were slated to picked up an additional two passengers, but there was no spare time for hanging around and visitations and within the hour, the ship was back on passage for Stanley, Falkland Islands.
It was a week of 'get there, get it done, move on' all the way back to the Falklands. The only thing that was remarkable about the passage was that the weather blew up and the waves started to build. Luckily it was all from the South and with a passage taking us to the North West, we were largely blown along our track and it was not too uncomfortable at all.
Wavey Davey's Weekly Wit Spot.
Wavey Davey comes out with some golden oldies this week.
Three men were standing on the top of a tall skyscraper in New York when one hypothesises that it should be possible to leap from the top and as a body approaches the ground, air pressure would form a protective cushion which would effectively break his fall.
The second of the two men challenges the first ' I don't believe it. It would never work '.
The first assures the second it is truly possible and prove the fact, leaps directly over the edge to what looks like certain death.
Unbelievably, the man falls at ever-increasing speed until only a few feet from the pavement when the air seemed to form a protective cushion and far from letting him down, seemed to trampoline him back up into the air. He came safely to a halt on his feet at the pavement and ascends the skyscraper in the elevator to triumph at his accomplishment to his fellows.
'That's amazing', said the second man, 'I'm going to try it...' he said as he hurled himself off the skyscraper.
As the man fell at ever-increasing speed until he was only a few feet from the pavement, he realised that he was not being cushioned and he was not slowing down and microseconds later became so much mess on the sidewalk. The man died instantly.
Up on the top of the skyscraper the two remaining men are looking down below when the third man remarked ...
' You really are a horrible person, for a superhero, Superman ! '
Wavey tried burying a belated pig under his apple tree this year.
He was hoping to get a bumper crop of Bacon Apples !!!
As we progressed North towards Stanley, the RRS James Clark Ross was coming in the opposite direction on an equally tight itinerary. They had just crew-changed in Montevideo and were heading at best speed for Rothera down the Antarctic Peninsula, so their brief call into Stanley was very brief indeed. They had time enough only to drop off some boxes of cargo and fresh provisions collected in Uruguay, before they continued on their way. We missed each other by only a whisker and we pulled alongside FIPASS on the Monday 15th January. They had passed through the previous evening.
It is a shame that the ship's itineraries do not allow more time to meet up and see our sistership from time to time, bearing in mind that in future years, the Shackleton will be operating in the East of the Atlantic whilst the James Clark Ross will continue the work in the West. Our only possibility of a meeting will be back in the UK during our various mobilizations / demobilizations in the future.
But back to Stanley and the task in hand was to off-load the Base Waste and empty fuel containers that we had taken out of Halley. Just to remind you that every stick, every piece of litter, and every bit of waste has to be extracted out of Antarctica by International Agreement. The logistics of getting all the cargo into Antarctica is not the end of the story. Everything eventually has to be extracted and returned to the Falklands or back to the UK when the ships return there each year.
Work alongside in Stanley was a bit of a miserable affair. The bad weather that dogged us all the way up from Signy continued throughout the time alongside and the poor guys out on the decks, in the holds and on the quaysides were washed with a constant drizzle of rain, when it wasn't pouring down or even - on occasion - dropping hailstones ! And remember this is Summer down here !
Now is it just me, or does nobody else remember the plot of the 1980's movie 'Flash Gordon' ? In that movie, Ming the Merciless was toying with the world's weather systems in an effort to destroy the planet ... out of Boredom. Can nobody else join with me and NASA Scientist Dr Hans Zarkov in realising that he's at it again ?? How many snowballs need to fall on Stanley in Summer before everybody wakes up and sees what is really going on ? ' Global Warming ' indeed !

A BRIEF RESPITE ON THE FALKLAND ISLANDS. by Radio Officer Stevie B.
For nearly 7 years, I have been attempting to get a 'Round Robin' trip on the FIGAS (Falkland Islands General Aviation Service) service around the Islands of the Falklands. Since the Island infrastructure is very scant, to say the least, the best way to reach the far-flung settlements around the Islands is by aeroplane. There are daily scheduled flights from Stanley Airport calling at all the grass strips, gravel airfields and even Mount Pleasant Airport as the populous gets distributed around the havens, hamlets, homesteads and holiday spots.

The means to get around the Falklands.
It was not actually myself that booked the Round Robin flight this call in Stanley, but the adventurous 3rd Officer Ralph. As mentioned I had tried on many occasions to get the right-hand seat next to the pilot, but failed due either to onboard duties in port or because the flights were too full or otherwise cancelled due to weather. Therefore I had not intended to make application myself on such a short stay in Stanley. But as it transpired, Ralph could not get free from his duties at the quayside due to the amount of cargo work involved in our call, and the Captain was able to spare me. How lucky for me, but I did feel for Ralph who would not be able to enjoy a flight this call.
It is not the first time that the Round Robin has been reported in these pages. 2nd Officer Robin Kilroy managed the flight back in January 2001 and reported it in the webpages of that time. As he said, it was the best way to spend Ł42.00 in the Falkland Islands. Here I am reporting 6 years later and the Round Robin STILL costs only Ł42.00 ! It looks like inflation is slow to find it's way to the Falklands !
And so it was at 10.30am on a very blustery and dull Tuesday morning 16th January that I got 'on my bike' (literally) and made my way the 2 miles from FIPASS to the local Stanley Airport.
The Stanley Equivalent to the Heathrow M25 !
I checked in at the Airport terminal building which is small but homely, and awaited the return of my aircraft from an earlier flight around the locality. My check-in was 11.00am but at 11.30am I was still sitting there and awaiting it's arrival. The overall impression is that the schedules of FIGAS are very laid-back and unhurried. When the plane finally arrived, I saw the pilot busying about in the terminal building and in no apparent hurry to depart at the expected 11.15am that I had booked ?
My 'Taxi' Awaits on a grisly and damp day.
It was about Midday that I was finally escorted with the one other passenger to the plane waiting on the ramp. We jumped in and were given a quick 'brief' by the young pilot who came out onto the tarmac, and with an ' Okay ? ' he jumped in, we buckled up, and we were off. Very little ceremony involved in this flight departure.
A word about the twin engine 'Islander' aeroplanes is that they can carry up to 9 passengers and are surprisingly spacious inside. The view from the front 3 rows of seats is very good and with only 1 crew-member onboard, it allows a lucky participant to 'ride shotgun' up front with the Pilot. This is where the 'Round Robin' passengers get to fly.
Click to see a bearded Stevie B in the Islander, and enjoying the view.
As a Private Pilot, I was largely onboard for the aeroplane flight and to watch the knobs, dials, and instruments that always give me a delight to see. But as we departed Stanley on a very overcast day, my delight was transferred to the fact that these planes seem to fly everywhere at a height of only 500 feet or so. I had thought we would be up in the clouds for the best part of the day and only pop down to do the landings in the far off places, but no. Apparently, the majority of flying in the FIGAS service is 'puddle jumping' and therefore we had a view of the ground at all times - even with the cloud as low as it was this morning. The further South and West we flew on our first leg of the journey, the lighter and brighter it became and by the time we were on the West Falkland Islands, there was even sunshine and blue patches to greet us. It cheered the day no end, but I was content just to be flying once again.
Click to see the Round Robin (courtesy again of Sailwx/info).
Our proposed route was Sealion Island, on to Fox Bay, then to Carcass Island and back to Port Howard. Finally a return to Port Stanley would complete the round flight and see me back at the 'capital' by 1500 hours. The first airfield was not a disappointment. I had anticipated a small, indistinct strip of grass in the middle of nowhere and Sealion Island is so small as to qualify as 'the middle of nowhere'.
Sealion Island International Airport, Terminal, and Strip !
As you can see from the photograph taken on arrival, the landing strip runs passed the 'terminal buildings' but just beyond that is the sea once again. This typifies the type of airstrips that the Service flies in to and out of on a daily basis. The pilot navigated us to finals and touched down on the gravel strip with little ceremony and no bounce. We touched down at approximately 120 knots indicated airspeed and came to a complete stop in such a short distance that I was well-impressed.
Once strapped into the front seat and wearing the 2nd set of headphones, I could hold a great conversation with the Pilot who automatically asked 'and where are you from ?'. I only had to mention ' The RRS Ernest Shackleton... ' and the pilot, surprised, commented ' then perhaps you know the chap onboard that I am emailing about golfing at the Stanley Golf Club ? '
'You wouldn't happen to be Troyd ?' I asked. ' You wouldn't happen to be Steve ? ' he replied ??? What a small world it is in the Falklands !
The rest of the flight was swiftly passed away in mutual conversation about golfing, flying and living in the Falklands and many mutual acquaintances were discovered as we chatted. It really is a small world.
A fellow FIGAS Islander already on 'the Ramp' at Sealion Island.
At Sealion Island, despite it's size, there was already an Islander embarking and disembarking passengers. We pulled up behind our neighbour and with 5 minutes, we had loaded 3 passengers, baggage and boxes and Troyd had used his 'Whizz wheel' to calculate weights and balances before starting up the engines once more for the next leg. And so it was at each destination. With little ceremony and remarkable efficiency, the stops at each field was completed in minutes and we were airbourne again directly.
Finals for Runway 27 at Stanley (SFAL) and the end of an enjoyable flight.
With about 25 minutes between each stop, and 5 minutes on each remote strip, it worked out that I was back on 'Finals' to Stanley in 2-1/2 hours so despite leaving later than anticipated, I was back in goodly time to find my bike and get back to work.
After waiting 7 years for the experience, I was certainly not disappointed. I could wax lyrical about airspeeds, approaches and go-arounds, but suffice it to say, it was an excellent flight, plenty to see and good company on route. I would heartily recommend it to any fellow crewmates or visitors to the Islands and hopefully, ' next time, Ralph, next time'.
Stevie B
Finally for this week, the vessel completed the discharge of Base waste and loaded the holds up once again with more barrels of AVTUR for Halley. Two more layers of drums were packed into the lower hold and secured for sea, again all under a wash of summer showers and storms. Once we were all loaded, and mindful of the days that we needed to gain to get back on schedule, the Captain ordered us back to sea. It was only a very brief 3 days stay in the Falklands, but we took enough fuel for the Base and sufficient for ship to make another journey down to the deep South. Our itinerary now calls for visits to Bird Island, King Edward Point and Halley stopping off for science along the way. We have about 3 weeks of scientific work in the Weddell Sea to conduct this year, and I am sure the Scientists will rise to the occasion with a full explanation as it happens.
Setting sail from Stanley was not very promising unfortunately. The weather still continued in it's miserable way and we steamed directly into a Southerly swell that kept the Shackleton moving like a pendulum in a Grandfather clock. Once we are victim to the motion of the ocean, for those who failed to feel seasick, there is the ever-present lethargy that comes with the constant tiring motion. Even the simplest of tasks became a chore. Once again it's hat's off to the Galley Team who amaze me by continually producing first class food in any weather. How they keep the soup in the saucepans must be a matter for a future exposé in the columns of these pages.
The Home Improvement Spot.
The next 'Home Improvement' idea for the Ernest Shackleton is based around the 'back garden'.
On the Shackleton, I am afraid we tend to let the Helideck get cluttered during the course of the season and invariably it gets relegated to being a Car Park on many occasions. I am sure this vast expanse of area on the vessel could be better used to heighten the 'Shackleton Experience'. How about a Gazebo or 'Pimms Tent', a nice border of flowers, or rockery, or a simple water feature ???
Click on the Images to enlarge the possibilities !
The two 'Gardeners' in attendance are thought to be Martin and Wavey Davey. One minute they are removing the traces of rust from the Helideck and the next minute they are trimming the verges ! If you look carefully, you can detect that Wavey Davey needs to pay more attention to his mowing as the grass is in definite need of attention. We shall be having a word with Dewi, the Chief Officer, to see what can be arranged in the form of white picket fencing in the near future ???
Forthcoming Events: Complete the work at Bird Island where we are collecting all the Base Waste we missed on our first call in December, and to allow our onboard Dentist to inflict a little 'dentistry' and 'dental floss' on unsuspecting Base Members. Once complete, we continue our program around to King Edward Point on the East Coast of South Georgia and hopefully find some nice weather.
Contributions This Week : Thanks to the Shackleton Gardeners. And thanks to Capt Troyd and FIGAS for the opportunity of a flight.
Diary No.9 will be prepared on Sunday 28th January 2007 for publication on Monday 29th January.

Florida Pricing Higher Education Beyond Reach of Floridians? And What's Causing Algae Outbreaks in Florida?
Robert Lorei
Radioactivity: Live Call-In (Wednesday) | Listen to this entire show:
Good morning, welcome to Radioactivity. Iâm Rob Lorei. Coming up today well talk about corporations trying to make it easier to pollute Floridaâs freshwater rivers, lakes and springs. Weâll also talk about the burden of the high cost of education here in Florida. But first, two listener comments about yesterdayâs program. Yesterday we talked about the militarization and heavy surveillance that accompanied the Republican National Convention four years ago in St. Paul Minnesota. Hereâs what two listeners had to say:
Some listener comments about yesterdayâs program. Our next guest says Floridaâs water ways are endangered and Tallahassee and Washington are moving in the wrong direction when it comes to protecting Floridaâs amazing freshwaters.The Silver River near Ocala, the Caloosahatchee in Fort Myers, the Indian River on Floridaâs east coast and the Santa Fe near Gainesville are the best examples of what Tallahassee and Washington are failing to do. David Guest is the managing attorney for Earthjustice. He joins us now by phone.

During the last three years state funding for higher education funding per student decreased 40 percent, according to a new report by national public policy center Demos and the Florida-based Research Institute on Social and Economic Policy (RISEP). As a result, Floridian families now spend 25% of median income on the cost of just one year of attendance at a public four-year college.
This new report, is called âFloridaâs Great Cost Shift" warns that more cuts to higher education will cripple Floridaâs middle classâ¦.

A VBA Runtime Error 13: "Type Mismatch" is hitting my code hard. This is the line I'm hung up on:
Man, I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
What is VBA Runtime Error 13: Type Mismatch?
VBA Runtime Error 13: Type mismatch occurs when VBA assigns one type of data to a variable and it gets another.
The most common VBA Runtime Error 13 occurs when you have a variable that stores a number such as an VBA Integer data type or a VBA Double data type and you try to assign a text value that VBA cannot convert into a number value.
For example, each line of the following code will generate a VBA Runtime Error 13 type mismatch error:
Sub Create_VBA_Error_13()
Dim nNumPayments As Integer
Dim dPayAmount As Double
Dim dPayDate As Date
nNumPayments = "12 Payments"
dPayAmount = "12 dollars 12 cents"
dPayDate = "Tuesday, June 12"
End Sub
Another type of VBA Error 13 occurs when you have a VBA Boolean variable that only accepts TRUE or FALSE values. Generally if you will use a logical condition or test that evaluates to TRUE or FALSE value
Sub Create_VBA_Error_13_Boolean()
Dim bPaymentOK As Boolean
Dim dPayAmount As Double
dPayAmount = 12.12
' Evaluate to TRUE or FALSE
bPaymentOK = dPayAmount > 0
bPaymentOK = Not dPayAmount = 0
bPaymentOK = 1
'/ "YES" Does Not = TRUE or FALSE
bPaymentOK = "YES"
End Sub
VBA Logical Loops: A Trick
In this case there is a tricky situation. The line that has an error is a VBA DO WHILE loop.
The DO WHILE loop evaluates and is expecting a Boolean TRUE or FALSE value so that it can decide to either continue or stop looping.
The problem is that the value it is evaluating is a range's Text property.
The TEXT in that cell is not likely to convert easily into a Boolean TRUE or FALSE value. If that text data type is anything other than a TRUE or FALSE value it throws off a VBA Error 13 type mismatch because its looking for a Boolean and you are giving it a text value.
This loop is part of a dynamic looping technique I teach as part of my Excel VBA courses so I know where this is going. The dynamic looping technique loops through a list of data until we hit a blank cell, which would be the end of the list.
The correct code is:
Do Until ThisWorkbook.Worsheets("Data").Range("A1").Offset(nRowOffset).Text = ""
The reason that this works is that as VBA is looping down the list of cells it is constantly checking to see if the text property of a cell is blank by evalauting it as equal to a null string (= "").
If the cell has a non-null text value it evaluates to a FALSE value and continue the loop, if the cell is blank it evaluates to a TRUE value and the loop will stop.

It's been a while since the last time we saw Jessi June.
Jessi June's so excited to see you again that she can't wait until she's out of the shower. Instead, she invites you in to the shower for a little show.
What kind of show could she put on in the shower? Well why don't you look at the pictures below to see for yourself? Here's a hint. The show involves Jessi June's beautiful, wet, naked body. Do I have your attention now? Good. Look at these new Jessi June pictures now!
Well that's the best thing we'll see all day.
Nothing else we can do but climb into our own showers with our eyes tightly closed and imagine Jessi June all wet and horny right next to us.
Mind you, once the water gets cold, try to get out of there as soon as you can. No one wants you freezing to death or catching a cold. If you catch a cold, you might miss some sexy pictures from Twisty's!

Embarrassing Situations
A very shy guy goes into a pub on Valentine's Day night and sees a beautiful woman sitting alone at the bar.
After an hour of gathering up his courage he finally goes over to her and asks tentatively, "Um, would you mind if I bought you a drink?"
She responds by yelling at the top of her lungs, "No, I won't sleep with you tonight!"
Everyone in the pub is now staring at them. Naturally, the guy is hopelessly and completely embarrassed, and he slinks back to his table totally red-faced.
After a few minutes, the woman walks over to him and apologizes. She smiles at him and says, "I'm really sorry if I embarrassed you just then. You see, I'm a graduate student in psychology and I'm studying how people respond to embarrassing situations."
The man responds at the top of his lungs, "No I will not pay $200!"

How to Avoid Weight Gain While Working a Desk Job
Office workers, especially those who use computers a lot, spend most of the day sitting down, staring at a screen. It is very easy to gain weight in such an occupation. Here are some steps you can use to avoid gaining weight while working a desk job, and perhaps lose some weight you've already gained.
1Drink responsibly. Stay away from sodas and sugary drinks. They're very tempting, and can help you stay awake while working away, but they really don't do anything for you and are full of empty calories in the form of sugar. If you still need the caffeine, consider coffee or tea (not too much of it and watch the sugar). Try decaffeinated drinks, occasional fruit juice, and water with lemon squeezed in it.Ad
2Drink lots of water. Drinking water is good for you, and it will keep your mind off soda, coffee or alcohol. You'll also start going to the bathroom more often and you'll burn off a few calories walking there.
3Stay away from candy. Yes, they're tasty, but they don't really satisfy hunger and you'll only eat more and more. Instead of visiting the vending machine, bring snacks from home, such as baby carrots, cheese sticks, whole or sliced fresh fruit, small amounts of dried fruit, savory crackers and even chewing gum.
4Walk around the office and stretch every now and then. Hop a little. Dance. Prank your friends. Just move around! Take breaks every hour or so and move your body.
5Exercise on your chair. There are many sites online that offer ideas for exercising on your chair. You might even consider a small set of weights. There are also gym programs for computers that warn you when it is time to take a break and offer you exercise options.
- Fidget. Yes, your mother told you not to, but moving around, even a little, can help burn calories and keep the blood flowing.
- Put music on, if it is appropriate to do so (use headphones to avoid disturbing coworkers). Then, move to the music. You're at work, so you're not having a dance party, but you can tap your toes or bob your head a little. It all helps.
6Use loading time to keep fit. If you want to, exercise while waiting for things on the computer to load. Get up an work over to the other side of the office and back again or do some leg stretches.
7Try standing when you are programming. This is healthier than sitting. Or switch your chair for an exercise ball. This will work your abs and balance.
8Take the stairs instead of the elevator to reach your office. This is a simple but effective exercise. At the base of the stairs, put your toes at the edge of the base step and lower your heels to the ground and then stretch up on the the balls of your feet. Do this five times to give the calves a thorough workout. You can also practice stepping up onto a thick book, such as a phone book.
9Take walks at lunchtime, or before or after work. Get out and walk around the building, or the block. Get some natural sunlight if weather permits. If the weather is crummy, visit the nearest stairwell for a workout. Having a workout partner can help.
10Work out outside of the office. Bike or walk to work or to the bus stop, if you can. If you can't, find time to get some exercise outside work hours. Even a fifteen minute walk each day is better than nothing.
11Bring your lunch from home. Restaurant meals often include large portions and high-calorie choices. You can eat better and at less expense if you bring your own.
- Pack enough food to last the day. If your sandwich wears off before quitting time, do you have a healthy snack, or will you be visiting the vending machine?
- If you do eat in a restaurant or cafeteria, look for smaller portions. Do they offer half a sandwich with a salad or cup of soup? Is there a salad bar?
- Divide large portions. Eat half of a restaurant meal the first day and save the other half for another day.
We could really use your help!
bicycle brakes?
Spyware and Virus Protection?
- Carry papers with you when you walk so it looks like you are working.
- Walk around the office whenever you get the chance and at least every once an hour.
- Suck on ice cubes during hot weather; it helps to cool you and stops you reaching for candies and soft drinks.
- Buy a fun water bottle with pictures or sayings, to inspire yourself to drink water. Do not fill it with anything other than water; make it special. Your water bottle also cuts down on your use of disposable cups.
- Eat fruit as candy substitutes, or maybe even sugarless gum. It will keep your mouth busy.
- Don't leave your office too often, it might have a bad side-effect on your work. Use the office space as walking space rather than dashing outside or down the corridor too often.
- Don't drink too much water before meetings. Leaving in the middle of an important meeting could be disastrous.
- Please consult your doctor before beginning any exercise program.
Things You'll Need
- water bottle
- water
- healthy snacks
- internet connection (to search for exercise ideas)

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Curt firstname.lastname@example.com Clayton County Public Schools officials lifted the lid covering Corrective Superintendent John Thompson's "buckets of evidence" on Thursday, during a meeting with local politicians, business leaders, and parents to discuss the district's response to its accreditation crisis. The district has all of the evidence it needs for its response to the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), according to Thompson. The system is now seeking feedback from it's stakeholders to include in a report which will be sent to SACS later this month. The district's accreditation will be revoked by SACS on Sept. 1, if the system fails to meet nine mandates for improvement. A review team from the accrediting agency will visit the school system on Aug. 14 and 15, and a decision regarding the district's accreditation will be announced sometime between the end of the visit, and Sept. 1, according to SACS President Mark Elgart. "We want to let SACS know we did engage the community in this process," Thompson said. "It is our goal to create a document that you feel you have ownership of." The district's response to SACS will include Thompson's overview of the response; documented evidence to show the district has complied with each of the nine mandates; policy revisions and adoptions; stakeholder feedback; supporting documents, and a closing appeal to retain the accreditation. Several elected officials, and representatives of Clayton State University, the Clayton County Chamber of Commerce, Arts Clayton, The Metro South Association of Realtors, The Clayton County Council of PTAs, The Superintendent's Student Advisory Counci,; The University of Georgia's Clayton County Extension office, and the Concerned Citizens of Clayton County attended the meeting. Thompson described the community members who showed up as "the wind beneath our wings." Board of Education Chairperson Michelle Strong and board member Sandra Scott also attended the meeting. The board will vote on approving the response on July 28. Those attending the meeting on Thursday were not given access to the entire response. Thompson said everything is not yet ready for public viewing. The public unveiling of the district's response will be on July 25. Thompson has repeatedly said SACS will receive "buckets of evidence" before August. The contents of those buckets include: · Minutes and videotapes from board meetings. · Documents outlining the board's agenda-setting practices. · Documents pertaining to the superintendent's Key Communicators group, which consists of parents from each school in the district. · Agendas from board meetings and training sessions. · The recently revised public participation policy, and the new civility policy, as well as other policies the board revised or created. · A new state law which created an ethics commission for the Clayton Board of Education. · The board's code of ethics, which was revised to match language in the new state law. · Results from financial and attendance audits. Valya Lee, who led the district's internal review team, said the district was cleared by a variety of auditors of alleged improprieties in the areas of purchasing, contracts, human resources, and attendance records. · Residency affidavits signed by board members. · A residency investigation of the entire board, conducted by Secretary of State Karen Handel's office. · Documentation showing the board's removal of former board member Norreese Haynes following a police investigation that called his residency into question. · Press releases sent out by the district's communications department. · A March 8 article from the Clayton News Daily, entitled "SACS endorses superintendent plan for Clayton schools." After attending the meeting, David Barton, vice president of governmental affairs for the Metro South Association of Realtors, said he was impressed with the evidence unveiled. He said he felt the school system has a strong chance of retaining full accreditation as a result of the internal review team's efforts. "Based on what I saw at the meeting, I am 110 percent sure that they were able to meet all of the nine mandates," Barton said. "To correct what we corrected, does not [justify] probation. We should keep our full accreditation."

Spotted: Zac Efron cuddling up to Pitch Perfect star Rebel Wilson at last night's L.A. Lakers game, Tweeting "She's a Lakers fan too? I think I'm in love!"
OK, that's quite enough, you two. Ha ha, you're pretending to be into one another, very funny. While I do adore Rebel, I am in no mood to watch her steal delicious Zac right out from under my nose–even if it's just a joke. Mercifully, these two seemed to be merely messing around, and don't seem to have any intention of taking things to any sort of legitimate romantic level.
Tell me if you could ever picture these two as a serious couple…XOXO.

The Philadelphia Eagles announced that they will meet with former Bears HC Lovie Smith on Thursday regarding this head coaching position. Smith has drawn some interest from NFL teams since being let go last week. He's reportedly being considered for the Chargers head coaching job and it seemed like he had a decent chance to sign on with the Bills before they ultimately hired Doug Marrone. The Eagles are also considering Colts OC Bruce Arians, Seahawks DC Gus Bradley, Bengals OC Jay Gruden, Falcons DC Mike Nolan, Falcons ST coach Keith Armstrong and Denver Broncos OC Mike McCoy for the job.

We've heard a lot of talk about "shifting explanations" from the Obama Administration since the Benghazi attacks. In fact, this narrative is way overdone. After all, when a tragedy like this happens, the intelligence will change as it's a fluid situation. What would you expect? If we knew everything on the spot why have an investigation?
With all the criticism against Susan Rice she said nothing wrong in her public statement back in September. What she said actually was totally in line with what the CIA was saying at the time, in fact in their "Talking Points" memo that they wrote on the same day, what she said was the same as what they wrote.
Then we heard a tortured explanation as to why Condoleeza Rice deserved a pass back in 2005 but Susan Rice doesn't deserve one now. Yet even this analogy is problematic: she didn't give out false statements as Condeleeza Rice did. Despite what you hear, what Susan Rice said-and what the CIA wrote-back in September is not so different from what the best intelligence in both the U.S. and Libya says today. Yet we keep hearing that Rice and Obama have some explaining to do.
Yesterday McCain was criticized for cutting a hearing about Benghazi to: complain to the media about the lack of a hearing on Benghazi. When he was called on this he indginantly told the media that they have no right to tell him he can't say no comment if he wants to.
Now he has his own shifting explanation about why he msissed the hearing he claimed so loudly to the media about: he didn't go because he already knows everything there is to know. Do tell. So maybe the CIA should be debriefing him?
"Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said that nothing he learned in a closed-door briefing Friday with former CIA Director David Petraeus would change his criticism of U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice's initial public statements about the Sept.11 Benghazi attack."
"Asked Saturday at a press conference at the Halifax International Security Forum if anything he was told by Petraeus would change his assessment of what Rice knew and the statements she made, McCain said, "No, because I knew it was a terrorist attack from the beginning. People don't go to spontaneous demonstrations with mortars and RPGs."
So why have any hearings? All we need to know what happened is to use McCain's crude "common sense" that it had to be a terrorist attack. Meanwhile, no one ever said it wasn't one. Obama never said it wasn't-evidently McCain missed the debate where Romney made a big fool of himself shooting the Benghazi gun on his own foot when it emerged that Obama had used the T word the very next day.
Yet McCain continues to fabricate this issue and he and the rest of the GOP are not being called on it to the extent they should be. There has been no cover up and there have been no lies by the Obama Administration-Chris Stevens' father himself, Jan Stevens says they have been transparent and above board throughout the aftermath of this terrible tragedy.
"McCain also brushed off a letter sent to him Friday by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) in which Reid rejected McCain's call for a Senate select committee to investigate Benghazi and said it would be a "venue for baseless partisan attacks." Responding to the letter, McCain said, "I'm concerned about four Americans who died. Their families need to know the circumstances, why it happened, how it happened, and where responsibility lies. That's all. That's all that we're seeking. We're not seeing a confrontation with anyone. We're not trying to quote 'take on anyone.'"
Why do we need any kind of investigation? Just let McCain tell us what happened: he knows it all already.

Turkey vultures take sun baths to clean their wings
By Gary Bogue
Monday, January 12th, 2009 at 6:26 am in Sun, Turkey vultures.
Vultures sunning themselves. Photo by Jim Klent, San Leandro
I've been getting reports from people who see turkey vultures perched in trees or standing on telephone poles with their wings spread and wonder what's going on.
They are sunning themselves to clean their wings.
Turkey vultures eat road kills and other dead animals. Their feet, beaks and feathers are often contaminated with bacteria from the often long-dead animals. Sunning themselves allows the sun's ultraviolet rays to kill the bacteria.
That's why they take sun baths. When the sun rises in the morning, the instant the sun's rays shine on a vulture, its wings automatically spread wide.
When I worked as curator of the Lindsay Wildlife Museum in Walnut Creek, Calif., back in the 1970s, we had several non-releasable turkey vultures we kept on display and used for educational purposes.
In the morning when I turned on the lights in the museum, the vultures instantly spread their wings.
Pure reflex. /Gary

Kano — The Kano state government has suspended both commercial and private motorcyclists from carrying passengers within Kano and environs as from Thursday, until they register their bikes with the authorities.
The ban came on the heels of the attack by gunmen on the Emir of Kano Alhaji Ado Bayero, which led to the death of at least six persons and left many others wounded including the monarch's two sons last Saturday.
A statement issued by the Acting Governor of the state Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, on Tuesday said the decision was taken after studying recommendations given by security agents.
"After a meeting with security agencies and a careful study of their reports, We noticed that it has become necessary to suspend motorcycle riders from carrying passengers as from Thursday, 24, January, 2013," Dr. Ganduje said.
"Motorcyclists are required to register their bikes in order to ensure safety of their own lives and those of public members. We urge the bikers to go back to their respective local government to register for their own benefit and that of others.
He thanked members of the public for their cooperation and urged them to pray for the return of peace to the state.
According to an official source, the decision to proscribe commercial motorcycles in the state was based on an observation that almost all the violence that were carried out in the state were executed on motorcycles.
Also the killing of two lawmakers in the state house of assembly by gunmen riding bikes in November and December last year, had recently resuscitated debates among members of the public on whether motorcycles should be allowed to operate or not.
A security source said a string of meetings involving both government officials and security agencies were held in the wake of the killings to discuss the possibility of banning motorcycles, but still it was agreed that the bikers should be regulated because of security implications of a blanket ban.
But after the attack on Bayero, which shocked residents of Kano state and crippled commercial activities for two days, the government, a source said, resolved to ban the use of bikes once and for all as a measure to checkmate further attacks.

Juno: Awk poor wee Shaz couldn't keep his temper, poor wee lambQuote:
It appears that we have another Shaz exclusive. Shaz, was out clubbing last night celebrating his win over KJ Punk- retaining his IWA title. Last night, was also the return of Giddy. Shaz hooked up, with a hot lady- and he was so drunk, that his title was stolen by a little kid also known as Adam Perkins. Shaz woke up today, hungover- as the press were outside his house.
Video footage of the press talking crap like usual
Man 1: Good evening Shaz, last night- your title was stolen and now it is in the possession of a man also called Adam Perkins, please tell us what you are going to do about this issue?
Shaz: Yeah I heard, well. Whoever this Adam Perkins is- tell him to get his fat ass into this house immediately. I'm going to make sure this guy pays for what he has done. Who the FUCK does he think he is? Stealing MY title? Perkins, I hope you're prepared for a stabbing. Fool.
Man 2: Okay, well first of all Shaz. I think you need to calm down, Adam is only a 16 year old boy, who-
Shaz: Calm down? You must be gassing yeah? I have a right to NOT be calm. If I was you, I'd choose to be calm right now because I ain't in a good mood. First of all, that fit bird that I shagged last night fucked off back to Spain. She stole my condoms, and she stole my fuckin' Rolex watch. And now the matter has been made worse, since someone has stolen my bloody title!
Randomer: *whispers to Man 2* Wow, this guy is even worse than Balotelli. However, he does equal ratings. He'd sell-
Shaz hits the randomer
Shaz: And you sell better than Dolph Ziggler- muppet.
It also appears that Shaz has been fined, £5k- for assaulting a reporter, and for using the terms "fuck", "fucked" and "fuckin'". However, he did indeed get his title back. Adam Perkins was seen in town, chilling with his mates- showing the belt around as Shaz was shopping for a new watch. And he saw Adam Perkins...and viciously knocked him out cold. Shaz was arrested for a night, before being released on bail- and being fined another £5k. Many, many local people in London now want Shaz out of the country- and they want him out of IWA. The following words, from a posh women in Shepperd's Bush were acknowledged by the press: "Shaz is a terrible excuse for a champion, all he does is give England, a bad name. I demand he be stripped out of his IWA Championship belt. Wrestling should be banned as a whole- it's fake."
In addition to this, Shaz is now indeed looking for this posh women as he was caught with a baseball hand in his hand, in Shepperd's Bush. We'll have more on this shortly.

Weekend And Comet Update!March 14th, 2013 at 7:39 am by Jeremy Wheeler under Weather
There are some updates to the forecast and for the comet viewing tonight. Let's start with the forecast. Today is going to be very chilly and dry. We'll have a lot of sunshine, but it is downright cold for march. We started in the 30s with wind chills in the upper 20s. Winds were northwest at about 10-20mph, and they will stay up through the afternoon. We will have a few gusts to 25mph.
Tomorrow the winds will turn more out of the west, and that will give us a chance to warm up. Highs will be in the mid-upper 50s with partly sunny skies. Now the models have been trending earlier with the rain for Saturday. So it's possible we could see rain by the midday hours. Our Future Trak model even has a few showers in the morning, but I want to see a couple more runs before I put stock in it. The good news is that we will warm up on Saturday to the low/mid 60s. So there are some pockets of warmer air trying to push into Hampton Roads, but so far they have been short-lived. Last year we had many days in February and March where highs were in the 70s. Even some 80s.
Last night it was almost impossible to spot the comet Panstarrs. Tonight we will have clear skies. The comet is still visible in the night sky. Shortly after sunset look off to the west below the crescent moon. It should be just above the horizon. It won't be very impressive (small blue speck below), but with binoculars or a telescope I think you will get a nice treat to a rare event.
If you are going to look for it, then good luck and bundle up. It will be chilly.
Meteorologist: Jeremy Wheeler

Kumasi — The Head Pastor of Ebenezer Miracle Worship Centre in Kumasi, Rev. Dr. Ebenezer Opambuor Adarkwa Yiadom has emphasized his neutrality stance when it comes to partisan politics. The influential man of God has asserted that he is not a member of any political party so far as his calling is concerned.
He told listeners of New Mercury 91.5 FM, a local radio station he owns on Tuesday evening for the attention of Asanteman and the general public that he does not meddle in politics and want not to be dragged into it because he is not a card bearing member of any of the parties let alone support them.
Rev. Adarkwa Yiadom who answers to Prophet One and the Nation's Prophet was reacting to rumours doing the rounds that he is a member of the one of the leading political parties in the country.
According to him, while some sources are variously claiming that he is a member of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) and an ardent follower of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) at the same time.
He said, however, that he intercedes a lot for leaders and their activities and that should not be construed as vested interest to warrant a membership of any party.
"I am not an NDC member neither am I an NPP supporter. I pray a lot for political leaders in my capacity as a Man of God. Period. ", he explained saying his preoccupation is to win souls for Christ.
Asserting his position further , the Senior Prophet indicated that he was not part of the Special Congress of the NDC in Kumasi recently neither did he partake in the Praise and prayer festival by the NPP at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium last Sunday.
"In fact, I was not invited by any party to be part of their activities" he explained and queried the source of the rumours of his membership of a particular party.
Junior pastors of the church with him in the studio associated with the position of their head pastor.
Associate Pastor, Rev. Maxwell Acquah alias Chief, also Known as Vim Papa, collaborated Prophet One's position by declaring on the same channel that "we belong to Jesus Freedom Party and our main concern is to pray and deliver souls from the bondage of evil forces."

Welcome From The Dean
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
It was a banner year for The University of Tulsa College of Law. TU Law climbed 61 positions over the past four years in the US News & World Report "Best Graduate School" rankings, and we are now ranked 86th. We are proud of our graduate employment rate of 91.8 percent for the class of 2012, a rate well above the national average. Our four new professors joined TU Law from this country's most prestigious institutions and have already distinguished themselves nationally and internationally as scholars and practitioners in their fields.
In the last academic year, TU Law students contributed more than 18,000 hours of pro bono work to those most in need in our communities. The new Lobeck Taylor Family Advocacy Clinic will not only address unmet legal needs of Tulsa's most vulnerable women and children, but also will double as the Boesche Legal Clinic's capacity to offer gold-standard legal training to students. With a new Assistant Dean of Experiential Learning, a position supported in partnership with McAfee & Taft, we dramatically expanded our externship program, offering TU Law students the opportunity to give back by representing the underserved through work with nonprofits and social service agencies.
TU Law continues to build on and innovate with our internationally recognized flagship programs in energy law and Native American law. In particular, we graduated the first class of the Master of Jurisprudence in Indian Law (MJIL) online program last May. This fall, we launch the nation's first Master of Jurisprudence in Energy Law (MJEL) online degree program designed for business professionals who want a deeper understanding of energy and environmental law.
Across the country, law schools confront significant challenges as the pool of prospective students dwindles in response to a drumbeat questioning the value of a JD. While TU Law is not immune from these broader market forces, we are well positioned to sustain the pressures. Our commitment to build on our strengths and prepare our students to be successful in the ever-changing legal market remains stronger than ever. You, our alumni and our friends, are our inspiration in this journey. We are deeply grateful.

saving power is already a good reason, security purposes are another, and not wanting my room to be flooded with unnecessary EM especially while I'm asleep is yet another
the wifi on/off feature seems important enough for manufacturers to advertise it when it's present
the very fact that some
<insert non-PG word>
-head at the company decided to have this feature removed for some unknown reason (god knows what the hell went through their noggin, other than hot air)
even though it was present in the previous products
, is reason enough to boycott that product. it's not like that feature is expensive to implement either. it's just...a switch
in short companies should be punished for their bad decisions, plain & simple
perhaps then they will learn, ditch those executives who made said decisions, and hire sensible & competent folks in their place

Teen Gives Birth in Airplane, Leaves Stillborn Fetus in Trashcan
KHOU reported that a 14-year-old Houston girl gave birth in an airplane bathroom Sunday and left the fetus in a trashcan. Preliminary autopsy reports indicate that the fetus was stillborn, police said Monday.
Investigators believe the birth occurred sometime during the flight, KHOU reported.
Dallas Morning News and KHOU reported that the girl, an eighth grader, didn't know she was pregnant. Therefore, charges are unlikely to be filed.
'ÄúWe're dealing with a scared child at this point,'Ä? investigator Keith Lovelace said. (Dallas Morning News).
Police were called to Bush Intercontinental Airport after cleaning crews found the fetus stuffed in a trash can in one of the airplane's bathrooms Sunday afternoon. All of the passengers had exited the plane before the fetus was found.
The girl was questioned by investigators Sunday night, Dallas Morning News reported.
Dallas Morning News reported the girl was on the non-stop Continental Airlines flight from New York's LaGuardia Airport as part middle school field trip. KHOU reported that Houston Independent School District confirmed that a choir from Perishing Middle School was on board the flight, but would not confirm whether the girl was part of that group.
KHOU's article ended with a Q&A with a Houston-area obstetrician who answered questions about the logistics of the incident. This helped to clear up the 'How?' question.
The Dallas Morning News article was more of a breaking news article. It was short and filled space with specifics about the flight itself that didn't really pertain to the story at hand.

The Telstar design is inspired by this era, though it was etched out in reality in the 1990's by none other than Edward Craven Walker, the inventor of the original lava lamp.Each Telstar leg is hand polished with zinc and made in cast individually supervised and trial tested to ensure that a Mathmos Telstar Lava Lamp is a flawless recreation of space that you invest in with your pride almost at stake. Why because at our own risk we dare to reveal the fact that this is the original lava lamp while all others are imitations.

New Study: Is Increased iPad Adoption a Death Knell for Print? Hardly, says Michael Norris of Simba's new report.November 28, 2012 By Brian Howard
Simba Information's new report out this week is titled "The iPad and Its Owner 2013." But given its findings—including that 1 in 5 U.S. adults owns an iPad, along with projections that within five years tablet owners will outnumber print book buyers—it might have been called "The Rise of the Machines."
The media and publishing market intelligence company has been following trade ebook publishing through its nationally representative surveys since 2009, adding and removing reading devices from its proprietary "device matrix" to track the popularity of different readers as they enter the market.
According to Michael Norris, Senior Analyst at Simba Information's Trade Books Group, ebook reading has come a long way since 2009 when the company found "the most popular device to read ebooks on was the personal computer."
Of course, devices like Kindle and Nook (and to a smaller degree Sony Reader, which Simba seems ready to remove from its matrix) changed the playing field. Echoing other reports, Simba has been noticing for the last 18 months that tablets are gaining on these dedicated e-ink readers as the device of choice among readers of ebooks. This presents publishers with new challenges.
"It's a scaled up version of the challenges publishers have been facing for decades: how to get consumers to value your content," says Norris. "When you're talking about a device that allows consumers to bring more popular forms of media with them on the go—people are finding there are so many other things they can do when they're lying in bed or sitting on a plane—the publisher's job gets more challenging."
He adds, "books lost their portability advantage with the tablet."
But the notion that tablets will simply replace print books isn't supported by the findings. Simba's report reveals a lot of interesting consumer behaviors. For instance:
-About half of iPad owners don't use them to read ebooks at all
-iPad owners who do buy ebooks spend more on ebooks than the average ebook-using adult
-iPad owners who don't read ebooks tend to buy more print books than the general population (though, Norris explains, "that's a lot less interesting that I made it sound" as iPad owners tend to consume more of everything—books, newspapers, TV, radio—than the general population).

A Colorado mother says the vanilla milkshake her son got from a local Dairy Queen was tainted by a cleaning solution.
She ended up taking the boy to the hospital after he complained his tongue was burning.
The owner of that Dairy Queen says the incident was a terrible accident.
One employee was soaking the vanilla syrup container in the cleaner when another employee picked it up, thinking it was clean and filled it with the syrup.
Number 4:
It's a question everyone is asking.
Doctors have declared Dr. Kent Brantly and Nancy Writebol free of the Ebola virus.
But can they still pass it on?
They were treated with an experimental drug, ZMAPP, but doctors say they do not know whether it made a difference.
However, doctors maintain they're confident the discharge of the two patients poses no public health threat.
They say it was a learning experience that can help advance the world's treatment of the virus.
Number 3:
Dozens gathered at Memorial Mass in New Hampshire Sunday to remember slain American journalist James Foley.
Foley disappeared in 2012 while covering the civil war in Syria.
The 40-year-old reappeared last week in a video showing his beheading by an ISIS militant.
Authorities are using voice recognition technology and are close to identifying his killer.
Number 2:
U.S. Secretary of State, John Kerry says an American journalist held in Syria for nearly two years has been released unharmed today.
Peter Curtis was being held by Islamic rebels.
Officials say the U.S. was not involved in any negotiations for his release but was aware of private efforts to secure his freedom.
Curtis is no longer in Syria and is expected to reunite with his family soon.
Number 1:
A six point zero magnitude earthquake struck Northern California early today.
The most powerful quake to hit the area in decades left thousands without power and caused at least one serious injury.

My friends Travis has became my newest hero, sorry batman. Last night at around 10:30 Travis entered the midnight release line up for Modern Warfare 3 at the local EB games. In the end there was nearly 500 people there all. Now this surprised me a lot as we had been playing Battlefield almost non stop for the past two weeks. At midnight Travis had somehow managed to become the second person in line. As the store opened to a chorous of cheers and the first person bought their game, Travis stepped to the front counter and promptly bought
The Metal Gear Solid HD collection! :D This shocking revelation made the day of the stores staff. Leaving the store he promptly waved the game at all the people in line. In a day of millions of clones rushing to the CoD this is a refreshing break. Thank you Travis
