Under tho auspices of the Woman's
Missionary Federation, home missing

mecllng being held at the Young Women's
Christian association's building, where
Miss Florence Slmms was the chief
The home mission movement Is practi
cally national In Its scope. Its purpose be
ing to do missionary work here Instead
of devoting all of tho energies to aiding
those of foreign lands.
Miss Simms Is industrial sccrctniy of the
Young Woman's Christian association and
an such has during the last year visited
most of the cities In the United States
whore associations are In existence. As
secretin y. she has come In close touch
with young women who are supporting
themselves. And yesterday In order to
give an Idea of what theso young women
are doing, she devoted her remarks to the
subject, "The Young Woman In Indus
try." Without going Into the details of giving
figures. Miss Bimms told of tho thousands
of young women In not only the cities,
but the smaller towns who are earning
their own living, while many thousands
more are filling positions of trust In
business houses tho country over. Gen.
erally they are earning fair salaries and
tha difference between their salaries and
tho salaries psld men for doing similar
work Is not bo marked as It was a few
years ago.
Miss Slmms does not go upon the, theory
that women are crowding men out of their
positions, but simply coming Into their
own and by so doing, they have Ion
since convinced tho public that for certain
lines of business, women xire fully as com
petent as men. They are quick to leern,
have keen and acute Ideas aud understand
what Is required of them.
The auditorium of the Young Women's
Christian association's building was
crowded to Its capacity, many besides
association members being present.
The Presbyterians will have charge of
the meeting at tho Young Women's Chris
tian association at 2:30 o'clook this after
noon when the following will speak:

verse, from the third chapter of Malachl,
"Bring ye all the tlthos Into tho store

house, and prove me now herewith, salth
tho Lord of hosts, If I will not open you
the windows of heaven, and pour you out

Mr. Baltsly stated how tithing or de
livering to the church of one tenth of
your Income has been the custom of many
countries from tho very beginning, how
mete it Is that the people should lend
this much support to the work of God's
house, which must depend on financial
aid as much as any other Institution, and
the upholding of the dignity and neces
sity of the church by this manner of con
tribution. "Proper It Is to give one-tenth, which
according to the word of God Is the text
of his verse," will open for you the win
dows of heaven and pour you out a bless
ing, that there shall jiot be room enough
to receive It. Mr. Baltzly also related
several Instances of men who followed
the custom of tithing, and were richly

Third Presbyterian Sunday.
Rev. A. B. Marshall president of the
Presbyterlai seminary,- at the Third Pres
byterian church Sunday morning took for
his text, "Ask and. It Shall Be Given
You," Luke: 11-9. He said that most of
us believed In prayer and In another
sense mbst of us did not believe In prayer.
He explained by saying that while many
were willing to pray when there was
anything they wanted, ,they frequently
forgot all about It in a few minutes and
In years to come could not tell whether a
certain prayer had or had not been an
swered. Some prayers, he said, were not an
swered because the person did not know
how to pray. One must learn to pray In
faith, to pray sincerely and to oxpect an
answer, ho said, "Again, If you arp will
ing to stay up all night and nurse a Hick
tlngutshed and patriotic gentleman, who
Is to be" and he raised his glass, while
his hearers rose to their feet "tho next
president of the United States."
President Tntt said In part:
Power Much Limited.
"I saw In the name of your club the
possibility that you were, organised to
furnish an opportunity for a swan song
to those about to disappear. I con
cluded that It was well to cast an anchor
to tho windward, and accept as much
real condolence as I could gather In such
a hospltablo presenco as this, and there
fore, my friends, I accepted your Invi
tation and am hero. You have given
me the toast of 'The President.' It Is
said that the office, of president Is the
most powerful In the world, because un
der the constitution Its occupant realty
can exorcise more discretion than an em
peror or king exercises In any of tho
governments of modern Kurope. I am
not disposed to question this as a matter
of rcnsonlngtrom tho actual power given
tho president In the constitutional division
of governmental functions, but I am
bound to say that the consciousness of
such power is rarely, If over, present in
the mind of the ordinary Individual act
ing as president, because what chiefly
stares him In tho face In carrying out
any plan of his Is the limitation on the
power and not Its extent.
Of course, there are happy Individuals
who are able entirely to Ignore theso
limitations both In mind and practice,
and as to them the result may be dif
ferent. But to one whose training and
profession Is subordinate to law, the In
toxication of power rapidly sobers orr :n
the knowledge of Its restrictions and un
der tho prompt reminder of an ever
present and a not always considerate
press, as well as by the kindly sugges-
Hons that not Infrequently come from
tnat hall of congress In which Impeach
ments are Initiated and that smaller
chamber In which they n tried.
Favora Out- Stx-Yoar Term,
"In these days of progress, reform, up
lift and Improvement, a man does not
show himself abreast of the age unless
he haB some changes to suggest. It Is
the recommended change that marks his
being up-to-date. It may be a change
only for the sake, of change, but It Is
responsive to a public demand, and,
therefore, let's propose It. It Is contrary
to my own love for the dear old consti
tution to suggest any alteration In Its
terms, lest It bo regarded as a reflection
upon, or a criticism of that which has
been put to the sacred use for 125 years
of maintaining liberty regulated by law,
and tho guaranties of the rights of the
minority and the Individual under the
rule of the majority. But yielding to
the modern habit, and Just to show that
though I am a conservative, I am not a
reactionary, I venture the suggestion that
It would aid the efficiency of tho ex
ecutive and center his energy and at
tention and that of his subordinates in
the latter part of his administration upon
what Is purely disinterested public serv
ice If he were made Ineligible after serv
ing one term of six years cither to a suc
ceeding or a nonconsecutlve term.
One Yr In Four Wasted
"I am a little specific In this matter be
cause It BCMna.,iieceseary to be so In order
to be understood. I don't care how un
ambitious or modest a president Is. I
don't care how determined he Is, that he
himself will not secure his renomlnatlon
(and there aro very few Indeed who go
to that e-ttcnt), still his subordinates
equally Interested with him In his re
election will, whenever they have the
opportunity, exert their Influence and di
vide, their tlmo between tho public service
and the effort to secure their chiefs re
nomination and re-election. It la diffi
cult to prevent the whole administration!
from losing a part of Its effectiveness for
tho public good by th.'s diversion to po-
Htlcal effort for at least a year of the
four of each administration Were this
made Impossible by law. I can see no
reaon why the energy of the president
and that of all his subordinates might
not be directed rather to making a great
record of efficiency In the first and only
term than In seeking a second term for
tlmt purpose.
"Four years Is rather a short time lit
which to work out great governmental
polloies, Six years Is better.

"Another suggestion I would make Is
that legislative steps be taken, for there
Is nothing In the conFtltuttoti to foibld It,

the year, its a long way
from Cape Cod, but you can
have Cranberry Jelly, Cran
berry Pies and other things
made from cranberries just
as fresh and delicious as
back in New England.
How ? Why, by using
Soak these Evaporated Cranberries
in water and you have the juiciest
cranberries. They're not like other
evaporated fruit they have all the
self-same flavor and richness of the
fresh-picked berries at their ripest and
best. Makepeace Evaporated Cran
berries are vine-ripened, thus the flavor
is more fully developed than in ordinary
cranberries sold in bulk from barrels.
And they will keep indefinitely.
There is no waste every berry is good
thoroughly sterilized before being evaporated
you don't even have to " pick them over " or
wash them.
Ask your grocer today for Makepeace
Evaporated Cranberries. Cooking receipts
inside the package just follow directions
then if you don't say they are better than any
cranberries you ever bought simply take them
back to the dealer and he will cheerfully refund
your money. Comparison is the real test.
You be the judge.
In the unlikely event of your dealer not havusf
Makepeace Evaporated Cranberries, tell him to
get them for you from his jobber.

In executive matters. The veto on tho
one hand and the confirmation of appoint
ments and the ratification of treat los on
thn other I would not change
"Hut It does not seem to mu.thw( these
should be at arm's length as they now
are under our present system. It has
been proposed twice In our history after
the fullest consideration by souio of tho
wisest statesmen ww have had, to pass n
law giving to each department a feat fn
tho senate arid in tho houso, and a right
to enter Into tho discussion of the pro
posed legislation In either of tho national
legislative bodies. This would keep con
gress much better Informed as to the
actual conditions In the executive de
partments. H would keep tho department
heads on the qui vlve with rcferenco to
the.tr knowledge of their own departments
and their ability to answer appropriate
questions In respect to them.
"It would necessitate the appointment
to the cabinet of men used t debate and
to defend their positions and It would of
fer an opportunity for tho public to Jiujgo
of tho executive and his government
much moro Justly and much more quickly
than under our present system.
Abuse of President llotrctl.
"The rules of the two houses, as I
am advised, forbid tho use of abusive
language by one member against an
other and by the member of one house
against tho other house, or Its members.
A somewhat close examination of the
rules, however, of both bouses, does not
show that there Is any limitation on the
parliamentary character of the language
wlUh may bo directed against the presi
dent. As to him, tho members pursue
their own sweet wltl nml that sometimes
leads them Into language and eplthetlcol
description of the chief executive, that
could hardly be called complimentary,
"If members of the cabinet were al
lowed the floor, their very presenco would
suggest In the possibility of reply, moder
ation In discussing the administration,
which does not now at times prevnll. Tho
strongest reason at present for advocnt
inr this change Is that the Influence that
the executive shall have In shaping leg
islation may be moro In harmony with
the responsibility that the pnoplo hold him
to in respect to It. lie Is head of thn
party that elected him, nml as suoh, if

cal party, sji It generally is, ho Is looked

the party platform has promised.
Io Place fop Srimltlve Aliin.
One of the rcwiltn of my observation
In the presidency Is that tho iosltlon it
not a place to be enjoyed by u tcnslllve
Tho experience In the .presidency
toughens the hide of the occupant bo as
to enable him to resist the stings of
criticUm directed against him from the
tlmo ho takes offlco unUl he lays It
down. A query arises In respect to crltl-
clsms and attacks that aro mado without
the slightest reforenco to facts, and
merely for the purKse, of Invoking popu
lar opposition and distrust, and with thn
hope that by conntunt repetition they can
escape any possible refutation. I don't
know that this evil has been any greater
In this administration than In a previous
administration. All I know Is that It was
my first expcrlcnco and it seemed to mo
as If I had been more greatly tried than
most presidents by such method.
"The result In some respects la unfor
tunate In that aftur ono or two efforts
to moot the unfounded accusation despair
In the matter leads to Indifference nnd
perhaps to an Indifference toward both
Just and unjust criticism. This condition
helps tho comfort of tho patient, but I
doubt It It makes him a better president.
Of coursu tho reassuring formula that
history will right ono and will glvo ono
his Just meed of praise Is consolatory, but
It Is not altogether satisfactory, bouauso
the thought suggests Itself that tho tlmo
for remedy of 'the Injuetlco may be int
poned until orvs Is gathered to his fnthers,
and when he is not then particularly In
terested In earthly history or mundane
"I think the period for successful muck
raking Is gradually drawing to a clos.
I hope so, We must consider that tha
ebullition In muckraking literature Is only
one of tho temporary excu,ses of the tlmos
which Is curing Itself i..y tiring those
whoso patronage formed the motive for
Its beginning and rise.
ITesldeut Well Paid.
"The presidency Is a great office to
hold, It Is a great honor nnd It Is sur
rounded with much that makes it full of
pleasure and enjoyment for thn occupant
In spite of Its heavy responsibilities tind
the shining mark that It presents for
mlHrcpniaentatlon and fatso attuck. I
consider that the president of tho l'nltxl
Btatea is well paid, The salary by no
means measures tlio contribution to his
means of living which the generosity of
congress has afforded and unless It Is tho
policy of congress to enable him In his
four years to save money enough to live
In adequate dignity and comfort there
after, then the salary Is all that It ought
to be.
"Of course the great And really the only
lasting satisfaction that one can have In
the administration of the great office of
president is tho thought that ono has
done something permanently useful to his
fellow countrymen. The mero enjoyment
of the tinsel of office Is ephemeral and
unless one can fix ono'u memory on real
progress made thiough tho exercise of
presidential power there Is llttlo real
pleasure In the contemplation of the hold-'
ing of It."

With so many awesome places to see in the U.S., it can be difficult to know where to begin! The nation is vast and diverse, and your U.S. bucket list will probably cover north to south and east to west. Traveling in an RV can be the perfect way of visiting many places on a trip, letting you hit the highlights and experience life along the road.
Whether you book an RV rental in San Francisco and spend a few weeks having fun on the west coast, for example, or whether you spend months traveling around larger areas, you'll find plenty to keep you enraptured. Mobile living is especially great for making the most of the country's spectacular national parks.
Couples, groups of friends, intrepid solo explorers and families looking for the perfect vacation can all create the perfect RV trip. Hit the open road and enjoy some of the top places to see in the U.S. from the comfort of your RV.
Yellowstone National Park
Located largely in Wyoming, but with sections in Montana and Idaho too, the incredible Yellowstone National Park covers more than 3,400 square miles. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it was the first national park in the world. Filled with geothermal wonders, including geysers, bubbling pools and hot springs, there are also volcanic remains, fascinating natural features and numerous splendid vistas. The flora and fauna is interesting too.
There are many campgrounds throughout the park. Explore one of the world's greatest wonders on an RV adventure at Yellowstone. Activities in the park include horse riding, swimming, wildlife watching, fishing, boating and hiking.
The reliable geyser known as Old Faithful and the awe-inspiring and dazzling colors of the Grand Prismatic Spring are highlights. Other amazing features include the huge Yellowstone Lake, the Sulphur Caldron, Shoshone, Heart, Grebe and Isa Lakes, the Red Mountains and Firehole River. Additionally, Pelican Valley, Gibbon Falls, Terrace Springs, Roaring Mountain, Mammoth Hot Springs, Tower Fall, Canyon Village and Fort Yellowstone are sure to captivate.
Florida Keys
The 120-mile stretch of road that leads through the Florida Keys is often said to be one of the best road trips in the U.S. Enjoy the convenience of traveling in a motorhome for the ultimate experience in Florida. Beautiful beaches beckon, delicious food tempts and live music speaks to the soul. Wildlife encounters are plentiful and there are varied attractions and activities, including swimming, sunbathing, kayaking, diving, fishing, shopping and sightseeing.

Rocky Mountains
An RV trip through the picturesque Rocky Mountains is sure to create many wonderful memories. There are many camping areas throughout the mountains, plus diverse routes to choose from.
Head to the northern part of Colorado and explore the 415 square miles of the Rocky Mountain National Park. Stunning views abound and there is lots of wildlife. Five visitor centers are located through the park. There are numerous opportunities for hiking and picnicking.
Trail Ridge Road provides incredible mountain views. Lily Lake is perfect for fishing enthusiasts. Take a hike around Bear Lake. Enjoy tranquility at Kawuneeche Valley. Step back in time at the Holzwarth Historic Site.
You could continue your RV expedition into the plains of Wyoming, if time permits. See cowboys mounted on their trusty steeds, admire picture-perfect lakes, and be blown away by natural beauty. Alternatively, begin in New Mexico's Albuquerque and travel to Glacier National Park in Montana for more fascinating sights to see in the U.S.
Black Hills
The Black Hills in South Dakota could actually have been created with a U.S. adventure in mind. The diverse assortment of activities and the gorgeous views are sure to keep you spellbound. Badlands National Park is also within easy reach; combine the two destinations for a wondrous journey.
The old mining towns of Deadwood and Lead have museums, disused gold mines, casinos, and a famous cemetery.

The mystenious diversion of a Soviet airliner to Israel on Dec. 2 may have marked the first time an Aeroflot plane touched down at Ben-Gurion Airport.
But what is not well known is that an Israeli aircraft had made an unprecedented landing at Moscow's international airport just one month before.
The plane left Israel on Nov. I for the first direct flight to the Soviet capital. Aboard were top offials of the World Jewish Congress and the Jewish Agency for Israel, who were on their way to the Kremlin for meetings with top Soviet officials.
As Mendel Kaplan describes it, the direct flight was not the only unique aspect of the trip.
The Jewish leaders apparently received unprecedented assurances from Soviet leaders that meaningful changes in the quality of life for Jews remaining in the Soviet Union would be instituted in the near future.
Kaplan, who is chairman of the Jewish Agency Board of Governors, discussed those promises in a wide-ranging interview here last month during the 57th General Assembly of the Council of Jewish Federations.
One promise the Jewish delegation signed was an agreement with Soviet officials permitting Soviet Jews to set up a body that would represent their interests and have contact with other organized bodies of world Jewry.
The Soviets also promised to establish a Jewish cultural center in Moscow and to allow Jewish journals and a Jewish lecture bureau.
Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze personally informed the Jewish delegation that the teaching of Hebrew would be decriminalized.
Furthermore, Religious Affairs Minister Konstantin Kharchev said the Soviet Constitution would be amended this spring to allow the teaching of Jewish heritage.
There will be no restrictions on teaching Jewish subjects anywhere in the Soviet Union, Kaplan said.
Among other subjects discussed was the resolution of long-term emigration cases and the possibility of restoring diplomatic relations between the Soviet Union and Israel.
But if assurances were made in these areas, Kaplan and the other members of the delegation are not talking about them.
This, of course, was not the first meeting between Jewish leaders and Kremlin officials.
WJCongress President Edgar Bronfman, who was on the mission, had met with Soviet leaders in the past, as had Morris Abram, past chairman of the National Conference on Soviet Jewry and current chairman of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, who declined an invitation to be included on this trip.
Each time such a mission took place, participants returned toting bags of Soviet good will and promises, some of which were never kept.
But Kaplan said he was confident that the Soviets would live up to their pledges this time around. He listed three reasons.
First, the Soviets are now facing ethnic unrest in several corners of their vast nation.
In Estonia and Lithuania, Armenia and Azerbaidzhan, ethnic tensions present a real threat to the stability of the Soviet regime and the viability of the Soviet system.
Kaplan believes the resolution of grievances from another ethnic minority, the Jews, could well serve as a pilot project for assuaging the concerns of all ethnic groups.
Second, Soviet leader Mikbail Gorbachev has expressed concern about the "brain drain" of talent leaving the Soviet Union.
With Jewish emigration at its highest in nearly a decade, the Soviets are looking for ways to entice some of their best and brightest to stay, Kaplan said.
Finally, the Soviets want desperately to host an international human rights conference in 1991, the Jewish Agency official observed.
The United States and other Western countries are unwilling to participate in such a conference unless the Soviet government makes further headway in resolving its own longstanding human rights problems.
In sum, Kaplan believes the Soviets are willing to make significant changes in the quality of Jewish life, not out of some new-found good will, but for pragmatic reasons of self-interest.
Perhaps the new Soviet realpolitik does not come as a surprise to Kaplan since he is trying to accomplish a little "perestroika" (restructuring) of his own in the Jewish Agency.
Just as Gorbachev has begun to tackle the problem of waste and corruption in the government and Communist Party bureaucracy, so Kaplan has tried to rout out duplication and mismanagement in the Jewish Agency.
A longstanding complaint had been that the Jewish Agency and various ministries of the Israeli government were both trying to take responsibility for the same tasks.
Nowhere is this more evident than in the area of immigrant absorption, where the government's Absorption Ministry and the agency's Immigration and Absorption Department appeared to be stepping on each others' toes while still not managing to cover immigrants' needs adequately.
Kaplan and Simcha Dinitz, who chairs the World Zionist Organization-Jewish Agency Executiver, recently signed a contract with the Absorption Ministry to transfer most absorption responsibility to the govenment.
Under the new plan, 55 to 70 percent of all immigrants will be absorbed directly, meaning they will be settied in apartments rather than housed temporarily in absorption centers, where most olim spend their first six months in Israel.
The Jewish Agency will continue to help the government come up with the money to find "housing solutions" for Ethiopian and Soviet immigrants.
But more of its budget will be devoted to education and job training — to helping immigrants become self-sufficient in Israel.
Soviet Jews have been among the most vocal of immigrants to complain about Israel's absorption system.
With improvements expected both in the absorption process in Israel and the living conditions for Jews in the USSR, Soviet Jews will soon have a more promising alternative to choose from — if Mendel Kaplan gets his way.

Sample Presentations
5 Minute Samples
Here's the .pdf version the Five Minute Speech example that I did on Friday, April 23rd, 2010.
Notice that each of the slides in the Five Minute Speech corresponds directly to the required notecards as outlined in the 5 Minute Speech Guidelines. My first slide introduces the goals, the second slide introduces the project rubric, the third slide introduces the product rubric and so on.
Here are the notecards from my mock 5 Minute Presentation. I hope you see how they connect to the specific points on the 5 Minute Presentation Guidelines.
Here is Jack Carrick's 5 Minute Presentation. He does a good job addressing each of the rubric point, so take note. You'll need PowerPoint for this one, though. Sorry.
15 Minute Samples
Here is Alex Herbig's PowerPoint. I left it as a PowerPoint so that some of the transitions between slides would remain, but it is much nicer as a Keynote presentation. Additionally, I removed the 3 minute video at the beginning of the presentation. It is a very cool piece that King 5 News did on his presentation, but I felt that it was too huge to allow the presentation to be downloaded easily.
Make sure that you actually play this presentation, as the transitions that he has built into it make some slides impossible to read unless they are being played.
He does a very good job addressing each of the main points in the project rubric, and I think that his documentation is quite clear; he has images from his trip, pictures of the planning for his dinner, and some other pretty neat extras. His product rubric is not as detailed, partially because he does a good job of talking about how he meets standard for each point, and partially because the project changed so dramatically in scope during it's course. Finally, the slide about documentation is much prettier now. Alex tossed that one together at the last second because he did not have one–mainly because he didn't need one. His photography, his receipts, and King 5 News are more than enough documentation of an excellent project.
Again, the big take-away here is the excellent way in which he addresses the project rubric (and the stunning photography, let's be honest).
Here are the guidelines for the presentation. Keep in mind that they are guidelines; there is some room for artistry in your presentation. Note that in Alex's presentation he weaves his discussion of learning throughout the project, and that his documentation more or less speaks for itself. The important thing is that you hit all of these points clearly and concisely.

(WIS) A South Carolina man is in custody after leading deputies on a dangerous high speed chase and causing a three-vehicle accident; all while three children in car seats were in his vehicle.
Kershaw County Sheriff Jim Matthews says the Wednesday afternoon pursuit reached speeds of up to 110 miles per hour.
It started when a patrolling deputy attempted to stop a late model Chevrolet Impala driving 92 miles per hour.
Suspect Darius Pollard then drove away, passing vehicles in the emergency lane and in the grassy median, according to Matthews. On his last attempt to pass a vehicle in the median, he lost control of the vehicle and caused a pickup truck to collide with a tractor-trailer.
Deputies quickly arrived on the scene and discovered an infant, a 2-year-old child and a 3-year-old child, all in car seats in the back seat of the vehicle.

McDonald's selling new burger in green bun looking similar to moldBy Mason White 4:16 AM May 23, 2016
|New green McDonald's burger
By: Mahesh Sarin
(Scroll down for video) People are freaking out after seeing the new green burgers offered by McDonald's in China.
The moldy-looking burgers are being offered in celebration of the new Angry Birds movie.
The fast-food giant is also selling red burgers, and they are only available in China.
The new innovation consists of pork, eggs, lettuce and a secret jalapeno sauce in the middle of two bright green hamburger buns.
The Super Red Burger is essentially the same as a double chicken sandwich, but using two bright red buns instead of regular bread.
However, some people think that McDonald's has gone too far with the new concoction, even describing the green burger as fresh mold and the red burger as old blood.

HOUSTON (MarketWatch) — The Romney campaign is asking, "Are you better off?" while the Obama campaign is asking to trust them to finish the job. But while the candidates can give speeches, shake hands and kiss babies all day long, there are three economic factors that will decide who will be the next president.
Stock market
Commenting is back
MarketWatch community platform, retooled and revamped, is back and ready for action.
• Log in and start posting comments right away
With the stock market rallying more than 11% thus far this year, President Obama has a silver lining in the gray cloud that is the economy. If you have invested in the markets, you probably made some money.
But while companies have beaten lowered expectations, revenue growth has disappeared as a recessionary drag from the euro zone and a weak consumer has impacted sales. However, the markets have ignored the fundamental underpinnings and have been rallying on hopes of further quantitative easing by the Federal Reserve and bailouts of Spain and Italy by the ECB.
With the likely chance that Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke will not act before the November election, this disappointment is likely to send stocks sharply lower. This rapid decline would impact consumer confidence and have a negative psychological impact on investors and companies, which would play well into Romney's favor as individuals tend to vote "emotionally."
With the most important jobs numbers coming out this week, employment is the biggest concern for the current administration, as companies are sitting on cash and not hiring. Since Obama took office, full-time employment remains 1.4 million jobs lower than the day he started. And while temporary jobs have increased by 1.5 million, they do not give individuals the ability to sustain their current standard of living. The result has been lower consumer confidence, as they max-out credit cards and tap into savings to survive.
The problem for Obama is that his plan to increase employment has been focused on the wrong areas. While he has pushed for new technologies and support failing enterprises, the problems that keep businesses from hiring — uncertainty and poor sales — remain the biggest hurdles to hiring by businesses. And the highest levels of unemployment are in several battleground states.
For Romney, the employment landscape is where he should make his stand. Focusing on a plan to jump start hiring in the U.S., reducing restrictions and regulations and creating a clear path on future tax issues will go a long way at getting U.S. businesses to hire.
While Romney still has to prove he is the right leader to create jobs, if the economic data remains negative, those millions of unemployed and under-employed may be willing to pick a different leader to help them.
Global and domestic debt
Lastly, the ongoing economic crisis in Europe coupled with our own country's debt problems could be the deciding factor in the election.
Greek debt defaults, Spanish and Italian debt problems and China's preliminary economic woes could have a devastating impact on our own economy. A worst-case scenario is a sharp resurgence in the euro-zone crisis that quickly pushes the domestic economy into recession. Even if Germany helps "save" the euro zone, which is highly unlikely at the point, the Obama administration has distanced itself from the issue in the public sphere and will get no credit for any type of euro-zone debt solution agreement.
Domestically, we just saw the national debt go to $16 trillion, and the turmoil revolving around the "fiscal cliff" could have a major impact on how people vote.
That fact is, government debt alone has surged by 40% since Obama took office and off-balance sheet liabilities from Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Social Security and Medicare have continued to swell to enormous levels.
While the Obama campaign may continue to point to the mess that President Bush left them and tout that bailing out General Motors GM, -0.59% was a good thing, the average American isn't quite buying in. They know a bad investment when they see one and they are fairly certain that bailing out the banks, Wall Street, AIG and a litany of others was not ultimately a good thing for them.
Romney and Ryan need to come in strongly on this front with a reasonable plan to offset spending on projects that will yield a positive economic return with austerity measures to begin reigning in debts and liabilities. A plan to reform Social Security and Medicare is critical but must not impact current recipients and those within five years of retirement.
In conclusion, President Obama had four years to rebuild our country, and while he made some tough decisions that very well may have saved America from the brink of an irrevocable depression, he has failed to keep people in their homes and incentivize companies to hire. Luckily for Obama, Romney has done very little to persuade voters that "the other candidate" is the better man for the job.
Either way, in the next two months, how the stock market reacts to the Fed, whether unemployment dips or remains at 8.3% this week and if Europe's and America's debt problems unfold may very well decide who becomes the next U.S. president.
Lance Roberts is chief executive of StreetTalk Advisors.

SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Agiliance®, Inc., the leading independent provider of Integrated Risk Management solutions for Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) programs, today announced a new dedicated Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) program. The Agiliance Managed Risk-as-a-Service (M-RaaS) offering addresses growing demand among service providers to deliver IT and Security Risk Management solutions based on the award-winning Agiliance RiskVision™ platform. Agiliance M-RaaS simplifies compliance complexities and automates threat and vulnerability remediation actions, dramatically reducing mitigation times and improving operational efficiency.
"IT security risk management is now a requirement to protect and govern against advanced threats that bypass silo-based protection technologies"
"Agiliance is recognized around the world as a leading provider of IT security risk management technology," said Ron Borsholm, senior security solutions consultant and qualified security assessor at Bell Canada. "The company's new Managed Risk-as-a-Service enables us to help existing and new customers that lack the internal IT expertise and resources to address cyber threat remediation, security incident response, and regulatory oversight. Agiliance clearly understands the dynamics of this marketplace and has created a very compelling platform for IT security service providers."
The rising tide of insider and advanced persistent threats, mounting regulatory pressure, and the impact of big security data on IT operational efficiency is forcing organizations to perform continuous security monitoring and frequent data assessments. MSSPs are benefitting from these new requirements, since many organizations are unable to increase IT headcount, have become more comfortable with outsourcing IT, and need to implement additional security technologies, controls, or layers.
Cognosec, an accredited provider of compliance and audit services to major international companies seeking multi-state or multi-country regulatory licensing, is using Agiliance M-RaaS to deliver their new Online Gaming Regulation Framework package. According to Oliver Eckel, CEO at Cognosec, a division of the UC Group, "Regulations and policies vary by state and by country, which forces companies that offer remote gaming to verify and comply with multiple regulatory requirements. This can be a large and complex undertaking. Agiliance allows our clients complete all their self-assessment questionnaires in one step to streamline governance processes and reduce compliance costs."
Agiliance M-RaaS uses patented technology to identify, monitor, and mitigate risks by correlating security posture, assessing the business criticality of threats, and remediating physical and virtual assets within an organization's infrastructure. It preserves investments in best-of-breed IT and security tools or already deployed MSSP services. Using 50+ connectors, Agiliance gathers data from leading asset and configuration management tools, threat feeds, vulnerability scanners, SIEM and DLP systems, plus privileged identity, ticketing, and patch management tools. It enables MSSPs to streamline customers' governance processes for PCI, ISO, FFIEC, FISMA, etc., manage risk-based incident responses, and shorten time-to-remediation by orchestrating threat and vulnerability remediation actions.
Highlights of the Agiliance MSSP Program include:
- Virtualized, tiered delivery of Agiliance M-RaaS for threat, incident, and compliance needs.
- Access to Agiliance M-RaaS training offerings, both onsite and online.
- MSSP certification with Agiliance MSSP branded logo for marketing purposes.
- Access to 24 x 7 priority technical assistance from Agiliance Support team.
- Access to password-protected online portal for marketing and support information.
- Marketing and sales support for initial account development.
- Low investment starter packages, enabling MSSPs to get up and running quickly.
- No annual commitment - annual subscriptions are tied to customer usage.
"IT security risk management is now a requirement to protect and govern against advanced threats that bypass silo-based protection technologies," said Michael Saintcross, vice president of worldwide sales for Agiliance. "However, deploying an infrastructure to perform continuous monitoring is beyond the technical and HR capabilities of many organizations. This is a growing void that MSSPs can fill. The Agiliance M-RaaS offering is a proven, scalable solution that allows service providers to efficiently deliver a must-have service, while their customers enjoy lower risk postures and operating peace of mind."
The Agiliance MSSP Program will officially be introduced at RSA Conference 2013, February 25 – 28, 2013 in San Francisco. Interested MSSPs are invited to visit Agiliance Booth #317 to discuss how this new program can help them gain a competitive edge and accelerate profitability. To arrange a 1:1 meeting, please email email@example.com.

Legislatures Around the World
1) The Lower Houses
The U.S. legislature is bicameral, comprised of the Senate (the "upper house") and the House of Representatives (the "lower house"). These terms are defined in the sidebar to the right.
The chart below compares the representational district size of our House of Representatives with that of the lower houses of nations around the world.
The United States has the second largest legislative districts in the world. Only India has a larger lower house district. How about Russia? At 319,000, their House districts are less than half the size of ours.
Great Britain, the oppressor against whom our forebears waged war to liberate this nation, enjoys a liberating district size of only 91,000, a seventh the size of the U.S. districts.
Bicameral Legislatures
Legislatures usually consist of one house (unicameral) or two houses (bicameral). Bicameral legislatures consist of an "upper house" and a "lower house".
The upper house typically is:
The lower house is usually:

The results are shown in the chart below. The countries are ranked from largest representational district to smallest. (Again, the smaller the district, the more representational will its legislature tend to me.)

Last weekend, my husband and I took a trip to Walla Walla, WA. It was quite a long drive, but so worth it! This spot is well known for its wineries. I think we visited 8 out of 100 of them. We'd probably need about two weeks worth of vacation to truly explore each and every one. We arrived there with no sense of direction when it came to identifying wines and left with knowledge that will last us lifetime. We particularly fell in love with Waterbrook winery, Basel Cellars Estate winery, and Seven Hills winery. We were truly impressed by Basel Cellars Estate winery for its gorgeous landscaping and inviting tasting room. We were also fortunate to receive a private tour by the owner of the winery who showed us all of the other wonderful amenities that members can enjoy.
PLEASE NOTE: I can customize the letter in the cork photo below!

I blame a lot of this on the members screaming they want a leaderless movement. Without leadership, it is like a ship without a rudder, moving with whatever wind blows. Without centralized leadership, it allowed a lot of scammers and amateurs to pop up and take it all different directions.
Where (and who) is the real Tea Party? Does anyone know?
Not sure that's what they mean when they say "leaderless".
More than likely they want leaders who aren't Washington insiders. Average Joe's who step up - folks who haven't been corrupted by Washington style politics.
Sadly, we've seen it doesn't take long to get corrupt there...

Deborah Kahan Kolb shared with us some of her poignant and personal poetry reflecting on her unique experiences and challenges of growing up in, and ultimately leaving, the insular world of Hasidic Judaism.
Deborah spoke about her creative process, and gave participants a chance to try their hand at writing with a poetry prompt. The audience loved her reading and had a great time hanging out afterwards and sharing their own thoughts and experiences.
Deborah's work has appeared or is forthcoming in Poetica, Voices Israel, Veils, Halos & Shackles, New Verse News, Tuck, Literary Mama, Poets Reading the News, 3Elements Review, Rise Up Review, and Writers Resist. Deborah's debut collection, Windows and a Looking Glass, was published by Finishing Line Press, 2017. DeborahKahanKolb.com

This beautiful weather has got me all invigorated with fresh menu ideas for spring.
As the daylight hours increase and temperatures rise, many of us find that we have more energy and a renewed sense of commitment and desire to get back on track with our diets following the long winter months.
Eating seasonally provides our bodies with the right type of fuel to protect us from the environment and help keep us in balance. It is also the most economical way to support our diet and potentially provides us with the cleanest foods as fewer chemicals are required to sustain growth.
Eggs in a Basket ~ Succulent Baked Eggs in Sweet Potato
- 1 or 2 sweet potatoes
- 4 eggs
- Sea salt and cracked pepper
- Greens and fixings as desired
Makes four egg baskets.
I used about a third of a sweet potato for each egg basket. Depending on the size of the sweet potato you are working with, you can determine how many potatoes you require.
Wash and cut (skin on) sweet potatoes into roughly 2 + 1/2 inch long pieces (64 mm). You can either bake, boil or microwave the sweet potato pieces. (They will preserve nicely in the fridge for a day if you wish to make them ahead of time). For baking the potato pieces, I suggest 400 F. for approximately 20 minutes, testing with a fork at the center of potato to determine doneness.
Once potato pieces have cooled, use a spoon to carve out a cavity large enough to accommodate a raw egg in the centre of the potato. You can add the carved out potato to the side of the dish or reserve it for another recipe.
Place carved potato pieces on a baking sheet. Crack one egg into each potato cavity. If you prefer a scrambled-style egg, simply break up the egg prior to placing it in the potato cavity. Bake the egg baskets at 350 F. for approximately 15-20 or until desired doneness is achieved.
Remove egg baskets from oven and carefully plate them.
Season with salt and pepper as well as accompanying fixings as desired.

We picked a beautiful summer day to start our exploration of the Sudbury River.
I've driven over parts of the river a few times. You have also if you've every driven on Route 2 by Emerson Hospital. That's where the Sudbury River passes under that highway.
We started the day in Lincoln, near the Concord border on route 117. There is a parking area east of Lee's Bridge and the Sudbury River. The river is easy to see from the bridge, but the parking area is a bit harder. It looks like it's in the Mount Misery woods.
From the parking area, there is short haul down to a bay on the river. That bay is a hundred yard long slot that leads out into the Sudbury River itself.
The Boy once again was paddling on his own. We rented a Wilderness Pungo 140 from Charles River Canoe & Kayak. We taped up his thumbs to prevent the blisters he got last time.
Shortly, we paddled into Fairhaven Bay where the river widens. According to Thoreau's journal, he accidentally set fire to the woods around Fairhaven Bay in 1844. Far across the bay is a beautiful stone boathouse.
As you turn the corner out of the bay and head downstream on the river, you will definitely see a huge modern house perched uphill above the left-hand bank. I believe Hassan Ahmed bought the estate in 2009 after leaving Sonus Networks.
The Sudbury River is slow and flat through this section. It would be easy to paddle round trip. With Natascha along, we were able to shuttle cars and only paddle a downstream trip.
<insert obligatory waterfowl picture.>
The most unusual sight on the river was this pontoon boat.
It was a lunch cruise on the Concord River. Martha's Catering & Concord River Cruises runs the operation out of the South Bridge Boat House. This is a good spot to rent a canoe or kayak if you want to explore he nearby sections of the Concord, Assabet, or Subbury Rivers.
There were several casual fishermen along the river. Based on the sign below, I hope they were just doing a catch & release.
At the end of the paddle, we came to Egg Rock, where the Assabet River merges with the Sudbury River to form the Concord River.
From the merge it was just a short distance to the Old Calf Pasture landing spot on Lowell Road in Concord. This paddling trip was a little bit over five miles.

Social responsibility is good for business
Taking care of your brand is an important part of making sure you stay profitable and stick around as a business. Telogis telematics can help you both enhance and protect your company's branding by improving the most visible part of your business – your fleet.
Dangerous driving is bad advertising
When it's your name on the side of the vehicle, you'll want to make sure your drivers are representing the brand well. Forget 'How's my driving stickers?'. Just help drivers stay safe and courteous at all times with real-time in-cab alerts.
Alerts can be set up for a wide range of unsafe driving habits such as speeding, hard swerving or braking (often an indication of tailgating). Telogis safety solutions for drivers also include compliance apps that manage driving hours to minimise tiredness and reliable commercial navigation to prevent distracted drivers.More on driver safety
Keep your fleet green
Every extra mile costs. Not just fuel, man-hours and engine wear, but by adding CO2 and other GHG (greenhouse gases) to the air, known to contribute to climate change.
Using Telogis Fleet you can measure progress on green metrics. Using baseline data, ongoing collection and record-keeping of GHG outputs, you can report on your current carbon footprint and track green fleet initiatives.
Manage and monitor driver behaviour, reducing wasteful driving including idling by 30%, daily mileage by 10% and fuel costs by 25%. It all adds up to shrinking your carbon footprint and minimising carbon emissions.

I feel that to focus on my paladin I need to understand how it differs from my druid. To that end, I'm going to compare the two classes roughly and give some insight on where I think both classes shine. I'm going to start this off by giving my opinion on the two healing styles, but I'll write up a more detailed side by side comparison of things after that.
Druids have been thought of as strict raid healers as long as I've played them. All of their instant cast heal over time abilities made them perfect for fights where there was a lot of damage spread out over the entire raid. In ICC, Rejuvenation blanketing was a perfect way to keep the whole raid up. We weren't doing a huge amount of healing on any one person, but our HoTs countered damage enough for other healers to be able to bring people up. This is still about the same way that we heal now as long as we have the mana regen for it. Our main spells have remained Rejuv and Wild Growth, with a Swiftmend and a direct heal tossed in for Harmony. Because of this the druid healing style is also very preemptive with a huge focus on throughput. It is best to put up HoTs before large damage phases so that you do not get behind on your healing.
Paladins on the other hand have been thought of as tank healers. Their huge single target heals and Beacon of Light have always made them good at keeping tanks up in most encounters. While they are currently being given abilities to be good at raid healing as well, they still have arguably the best single target healing in the game. I personally feel that the paladin play style feels much more reactive because of the way that it's single target heals work. While it's mastery is all about making the spec be more preemptive than reactive, it's hard to keep shields on a large group of people without burning through mana. On a single person, say the tank, it is easy to continually heal with a cheap spell and keep a bubble on them. The class also has a lot more cooldowns to assist with mitigation of damage than druids do.
All the numbers I use here will come from the Wowhead MoP talent calculator.
Single Target Healing Spells
|Holy Light
Heals for 9322 to 10385
14% of Base mana
Heals for 6151 to 7148
Heals for an additional 20% if a Hot is present on the target.
10.2% of Base Mana
|Flash of Light
Heals for 132031 to 14813
42% of Base mana
Heals for 9813 to 10954 and an additional (2361*) over 6 seconds
29.7% of Base Mana
|Divine Light
Heals for 17678 to 19695
40% of Base Mana
|Healing Touch
Heals for 18460 to 21800
28.9% of Base Mana
|Eternal Flame *Level 45 Talent*
Heals for 1548 Per Holy Power consumed every 3 seconds for 30 seconds.
Heals for (6210*1) over 10 seconds. When Lifebloom expires target is healed for ((8150*+SPN*.752)*).Stacks up to three times.
Can only be cast on one target. When cast on a new target all stacks are transferred.
5.9% of Base Mana
|Holy Shock
Heals for 10016 to 10849
Generates 1 charge of Holy Power
6 second cooldown
16% of Base mana
Instanlty heals for 4234 and an additional 4234 every 3 seconds for 12 seconds.
16% Base mana.
|Execution Sentence *Level 90 Talent*
Heals the target for (holy spell power*4566/1000+26.72716306*375) over 10 sec.
Heals a target with Rejuvenation or Regrowth present on them for for 13966.
Also restores (13966*.12) health to three injured allies within 8 yards every 1 second for 7 seconds
8.5% of Base mana
15 second cooldown
|Word of Glory
Heals for 4106 to 4574 per Holy Power consumed
Can consume up to three Holy Power
1.5 second cooldown
Paladin spells cost much more for the casted healing spells, but druids would also be putting HoTs up on a single target. It also seems to me that the raw numbers for each of the casted heals seems a bit odd. I will assume that this is due to Holy Insight and how the spells scale with spell power.
It doesn't surprise me to see that Paladins have more options for single target healing. Some of their talented heals also seem very interesting. Execution Sentence seems like it will work out about the same as Lifebloom does now. Having a long term HoT only seems like it can be interesting to work with on certain encounters.
Looking at the druid numbers, they will have the same single target healing spells in MoP that they currently do. The only real changes I see are that Nourish has had a bit of it's HoT bonus added back in and that Efflorescence has been baked into Swiftmend.
Multiple Target Healing Spells
|Holy Radiance
Heals a friendly target 3776 to 4614
All allies within 10 yards healed for 50% of that amount. Amount decreases for every target over
Generates one charge of Holy Power
40% of Base Mana
Heals a target with Rejuvenation or Regrowth present on them for for 13966.
Also restores (13966*.12) health to three injured allies within 8 yards every 1 second for 7 seconds
8.5% of Base mana
15 second cooldown
|Light of Dawn
Heals up to 6 targets for 2027 to 2257 for every Holy Power consumed.
Can consume up to three Holy Power
|Wild Growth
Heals up to 5 allies for 6930 over 7 seconds
22.9% of base mana
8 second cooldown
|Holy Prism *Level 90 Talent*
If an enemy is the prism, they take 11172 to 13654 Holy damage and radiate 8374 to 10234healing to 5 nearby allies within 15 yards.
6% of Base mana
20 second cooldown
|Wild Mushroom: Bloom
Heals all allies within 12 yards for 6074 to 7348.
10.3% of Base mana per Wild Mushroom
10 second cooldown
|Light's Hammer *Level 90 Talent*
Hurl a Light-infused hammer into the ground, where it will blast a 10 yard area with Arcing Light for (16 sec.5) sec.
Deals 2513 to 3071 Holy damage to enemies within the area and 2513 to 3071 healing to allies within the area every 2 sec.
1 minute cooldown
I included Swiftmend here as well because of Efflorescence being combined with it.
Holy Radiance now has no HoT component and has all of it's healing done by the initial heal. It no also procs Daybreak which makes your next Holy Shock have an AoE component though. There is some very nice synergy between those two spells for AoE, and Light of Dawn can easily be added in as a Holy Power dump.
Holy Prism and Light's Hammer both seem like very interesting abilities. On fights where a large group of the raid will be near a boss/add, Holy Prism should be a very powerful option. Light's Hammer provides more choice in placement though. Regardless of which one is used, it seems that these spells are geared towards giving paladins some prolonged AoE healing where the other AoE spells are geared much more towards burst healing.
The only change for druids is the Bloom spell for Wild Mushrooms. It gives druids a nice burst AoE heal that they had been missing before. It seems like the majority of druid AoE healing will still rely on having HoTs spread out and using Swiftmend on cooldown though.
Throughput Cooldowns
|Avenging Wrath
Increases all damage and healing caused by 20% for 20 seconds.
3 minute cooldown
Heals 5 nearby lowest health party or raid targets within 40 yards with Tranquility every 2 sec for 8 sec. Tranquility heals for 3882 plus an additional343 every 2 sec over 8 sec. Stacks up to 3 times. The Druid must channel to maintain the spell.
3 minute cooldown
|Guardian of Ancient Kings
GoaK will heal the target of your next 5 single target heals, and nearby allies for 10% of the amount healed. Every time the Guardian heals it increases your haste by 10%.
5 minute cooldown
|Nature's Swiftness *Level 30 Talent*
When activated, your next Nature spell with a base casting time less than 10 sec. becomes an instant cast spell. If that spell is a healing spell, the amount healed will be increased by 50%.
1 minute cooldown
|Lay on Hands
Heals a friendly target for an amount equal to your maximum health.
10 minute cooldown
|Incarnation *Level 60 Talent*
Shapeshift into the tree of life, increasing healing done by 15% and increasing your armor by 120%. In addition, some of your spells are temporarly enhanced while shapeshifted.
3 minute cooldown
|Holy Avenger *Level 75 Talent*
Abilities that generate Holy Power will generate 3 Holy Power for the next 15 seconds.
2 minute cooldown
|Force of Nature *Level 60 Talent*
Summons three treants to assist in the druids combat role for 15 seconds.
1 minute cooldown
|Nature's Vigil *Level 90 Talent*
Increases all damage and healing done by 20% for 30 seconds.
3 minute cooldown
It seems that druids have much more option when it comes to throughput cooldowns. Excluding talents, do have more available to them, but druids are able to change things more for what suits their situation.
For Paladins, Avenging Wrath has stayed the same in that it provides a straight increases to healing done. Lay on Hands has also stayed the same and keeps the place of an emergency single target heal.
Guardian of Ancient Kings has had a nice bonus added to it in the form of stacking haste for every heal that the Guardian casts. On top of this, Paladins have access to a new cooldown: Holy Avenger. This spell works the same way that a Retribution Paladin's current Zealotry works and allows the paladin to put out very strong healing through the use of either Word of Glory or Light of Dawn. Paladins also have the option of altering Avenging Wrath through another Level 75 talent so that it removes the cooldown of Holy Shock. This change would work very well during periods of high movement where healing is still required. Regardless of the situation, it seems that Paladins have quite a few divers tools to work through most situations.
Druids have their main throughput spell, Tranquility, without any changes. Through talents they have also gained access to four other throughput spells. Incarnation and Nature's Swiftness are simply the old Tree of Life and Nature's Swiftness made into talents. There is also the addition of Force of Nature and Nature's Vigil to the druid's tools.
It seems to me that as far as the level 60 talents go, Force of Nature will be better suited to situations where there are multiple rough patches in a fight and you need a small cooldown more often. In the same manner I think Incarnation will end up being a much stronger cooldown that is more suited to fights with a few very healing intensive portions.
Nature's vigil seems to be a straight throughput cooldown similar to Avenging Wrath.
Damage Mitigation Spells
|Hand of Sacrifice
Places a Hand on a party or raid member, transferring 30% damage taken to the Paladin. Lasts 12 sec or until the Paladin has transferred 100% of their maximum health. Players may only have one Hand on them per Paladin at any one time.
3 minute cooldown
The target's skin becomes as tough as Ironwood, reducing all damage taken by 20%. Lasts 12 sec.
2 minute cooldown
|Devotion Aura
Inspire all party and raid members within 40 yards, granting them immunity to Silence and Interrupt effects and reducing all magic damage taken by 20%. Lasts 6 sec.
3 minute cooldown
|Cenarion Ward *Level 30 Talent*
Protects a friendly target, causing any damage taken to heal the target for 6174 every 2 sec for 6 sec. Gaining the healing effect consumes the Cenarion Ward. Useable in all shapeshift forms. Lasts 30 sec.
30 second cooldown
|Sacred Shield *Level 45 Talent*
Protects the target with a shield of Holy Light for 30 sec, which increases the critical chance of your Flash of Light on the target by 30%. The shield also absorbs 5879+0.52*holy spell power damage when the target takes damage, but no more than once every 6 sec.
Can only be active on one target at a time
With this expansion, druids have finally been given a tank cooldown. It has less of a decrease of damage than Hand of Sacrifice, but also a shorter cooldown so they should work out to be about even.
Where paladins pull ahead is with a raid damage mitigation. Even if it is only magic damage, druids don't have a real raid cooldown other than Tranquility.
I also included here Sacred Shield and Cenarion Ward although they aren't really mitigation cooldowns. They both serve the purpose of extra healing/absorption on a single target that work automatically.
Mana Regeneration
|Divine Plea
You gain 12% of your total mana over 9 sec, but the amount healed by your healing spells is reduced by 50%
2 minute cooldown
Causes the target to regenerate 10% of the caster's maximum mana over 10 sec. If cast on self, the caster will regenerate an additional 10% of maximum mana over 10 sec.
3 minute cooldown
Divine Plea and Innervate both have a their pros and cons as for how they work. Divine Plea has a shorter cooldown but it also restores less mana. It also includes the added hindrance of 50% less healing over the duration, but it can be glyphed to change that to a 5 second cast. This spell is definitely provides more freedom.
Innervate on the other hand has the ability to be give to allies and provides slightly more mana per minute of cooldown if used on oneself.
Altogether I think that both classes have very unique feels to them. I've enjoyed the healing style that druids have to offer and absolutely loved the time I spent playing it, but I'm excited to really jump into raiding on my paladin. I'll continue playing on the beta and writing up my opinions on the class from here.

Shannon Spruill, who wrestled as TNA Knockout Daffney, was involved in a major car accident Monday night. While she seems to be healthy, the former WCW Cruiserweight Champion did note that her car was totaled, as well as the loss of quite a bit of meterial and personal items. The following is from her official Facebook page:
"Monday night I was in a car accident. I was driving along I-4 and I hydroplaned at 70 mph, went off the road, and my car flipped. I landed upside-down in 3 feet of water. I was able to climb out of the passenger side and waded to safety. Luckily someone saw and stopped to help. It took 2 1/2 hours to tow my car out as it was wedged deep in the ditch in the woods.
Thank God I had my seatbelt on. If I hadn't I'm sure my injuries would have been much worse…if not fatal. I want to emphasize to all my Daffanatics to please remember to buckle up. I cannot explain the feeling I had when I realized what had happened. When I saw my totaled car the next day at the junkyard it really hit me. I'm so grateful to be alive. Now, I'm just trying to pick up the pieces and get things back to normal."

Littleton came up a bit short in its bid for a victory in its first Super Bowl appearance.
Trailing Putnam Voke by 16 after three quarters, the Tigers scored 13 fourth-quarter points in their 24-21 loss to the Beavers in the Division 3 Central Mass./Western Mass. Super Bowl yesterday at Westfield State College.
"We did not get sustained drives," said Littleton coach Mike Lynn. "We wanted to keep [Putnam's] offense off the field and it just didn't happen."
Lynn had good reason to try to keep the Beavers' offense on the sideline. The Springfield-based school came in averaging 32 points and had just come off a 59-22 victory over previously undefeated Springfield Science and Technology in Tuesday night's playoff.
Putnam didn't have earth-shattering numbers yesterday, but its offense did what was necessary to claim its second straight postseason title.
Putnam quarterback Sergey Gordievsky completed 7 of 8 passes for 150 yards and a touchdown. Wide receiver Andre Lester caught four passes for 119 yards. Senior tailback Justin Reid, who rushed for more than 4,000 yards in his career, scored the touchdowns on 1- and 5-yard runs and a 17-yard pass.
"This is the best feeling in the world," said Reid, whose team finished with 265 offensive yards. "We came out hard and we're Super Bowl champs again. We came out ready and had an intense week of practice."
The Beavers (10-3) scored on their first possession. A 55-yard pass to Lester set up Reid's first scoring run. Lester followed with the first of his three conversion receptions to put the Beavers ahead, 8-0. The Tigers answered late in the second quarter, a 94-yard, 13-play march capped by a 3-yard pass from Greg Moodie to Jordan White. Eric White's conversion run with 56 seconds remaining before the half tied the score.
Putnam responded quickly. Gordievsky hooked up with Lester for a 51-yard pass and catch, and Reid danced into the end zone from the 5 three plays later.
Putnam took a 24-8 lead in its second possession of the second half. Reid moved to the slot and got past the Littleton secondary for a TD catch.
Moodie (12 of 21, 135 yards) began the comeback attempt by connecting with James Williamson for a 15-yard TD. Two minutes later, a pair of pass interference penalties helped the Tigers move to the Beaver 3. Eric White finished the drive with a 3-yard scamper and Mike Rentschler's extra point cut the deficit to 3 with 5:38 left.
The Beavers were able to keep possession for the next four minutes. Although their efforts were stopped on the Tiger 9, Littleton (11-2) had just more than a minute to score. Its fate was sealed when Moodie's desperation pass was picked off by Lester.

CMass/WMass Div. 2 - In Tantasqua's first Super Bowl game, Corey Lavallee made sure the Warriors wouldn't lose.
