It's the third UFC event in as many weeks and this one might be the biggest, against in terms of size. Fight fans in Vancouver might not recognize some of the things they see on Saturday night though as there will be no biting and the stars will actually show up. They'll likely see plenty of headshots though, but these will lead to victories and not suspensions for the giving party. Now while Carrie Underwood was in Vancouver just a month ago, not even she could heat up the city like Brittney Palmer will this weekend.
Heavyweight Fight: Shane Carwin vs. Junior Dos Santos
After 10 weeks of coaching The Ultimate Fighter opposite Brock Lesnar, Junior Dos Santos faces Shane Carwin due to Lesnar having a diverticulitis relapse. The winner will go on to challenge for the UFC heavyweight strap later this year.
Carwin Skill Assessment: Despite his wrestling background, Carwin has become known for his one punch knockout power. He's not a technically sound striker, although he did show off a good straight left-right uppercut against Lesnar. Otherwise he's almost exclusively a one-two puncher. He does a nice job of using his jab to set up his takedowns and he has strong takedowns but we also haven't seen a lot of them. He tried to takedown Frank Mir but couldn't get it and Mir's takedown defense isn't high-level. When he does get a takedown, he's a monster on top. He does a nice job of posturing, moving to better positions, and staying active with strikes. Carwin doesn't really offer anything off his back other than how to get up. He looked lost against Lesnar but he was also gassed out. Against Gabriel Gonzaga though, he got up with relative ease after being stunned with a couple of right hands. Carwin's biggest strength might be in the clinch. Against Mir, he dominated him in the clinch by controlling him, landing knees to the thighs, and using his free hand to punish Mir with short punches and uppercuts. The big concern with Carwin is his health and conditioning. He's coming off major spinal surgery and hasn't competed in almost a year. Also, from what I've heard, he's dropped a little bit of weight, which might help his conditioning but could also take away from his power.
Carwin Game Plan: Carwin needs to make this a dirty fight. He needs to use his strength to bully Dos Santos into the clinch, rough him up in the clinch, and try to get the takedown. He's proven that he can generate a ton of power in a very short distance so he has no reason to stay at a striking distance with Dos Santos.
Dos Santos Skill Assessment: Ever since Dos Santos burst onto the UFC scene in 2008, he's quickly become the most feared striker in the division. He's an excellent technical boxer. He likes to go the body early, especially with the jab, and that's all to set up his right hand to the head. He'll also switch the combo around, throwing a jab to the head and then a right hook to the body. His favorite combo to use though is a left hook followed by a right uppercut. He's also a solid counter puncher with a powerful left hook. We've seen Dos Santos' takedown defense tested a couple of time in the UFC and each time he's passed. He was down for a brief moment against Gonzaga and immediately popped back up and he stuffed every takedown attempt from Roy Nelson. Neither of those men have the strength or credentials of Carwin though. Working in Dos Santos' favor is his quick hips and good balance. Because we've never seen Dos Santos on his back, we don't really know how good his guard or jiu-jitsu is. His teacher, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, says that Dos Santos gives him fits on the ground but what else would you expect his trainer to say? Dos Santos does seem like a guy who is a sponge though so it wouldn't shock me if he has quickly learned the jiu-jitsu game. At the very least I think he'll be able to limit Carwin's ground work. I wouldn't be shocked of Dos Santos has been training leg locks in preparation for this fight. Carwin is going to be tough to submit up top because of his build but Dos Santos could snatch one of his legs and take it home with him. Dos Santos' clinch game isn't bad but he was controlled and roughed up a bit by Nelson. Dos Santos' chin has never been tested like it will likely be tested against Carwin but he has taken some stiff punches from Mirko Cro Cop and Nelson and didn't blink. The big advantage Dos Santos has in this fight is his speed. In addition to having faster hands, he's also quicker and lighter on his feet.
Dos Santos Game Plan: Dos Santos needs to use his speed. Jab to keep Carwin at bay and show the uppercut to make Carwin think twice about shooting in. When Carwin moves in aggressively, Dos Santos has to move away and then counter with the straight right. Dos Santos needs to be at a distance at all time. He can't let Carwin press him against the cage or get him to the ground.
Fight Prediction: As the UFC promo hints at, this fight could come down to who lands first. My guess is that Dos Santos will land first because he is the quicker of the two. Plus, Carwin is too much of a mystery coming off major surgery and changing up his strength and conditioning programming. I think Dos Santos will be able to tag up Carwin early, avoid the takedown, and put Carwin away.
Official Prediction: Junior Dos Santos to defeat Shane Carwin by TKO in Round One
Featherweight Fight: Diego Nunes vs. Kenny Florian
Starting his career at middleweight on Season 1 of The Ultimate Fighter, Kenny Florian now drops to featherweight to take on Diego Nunes.
Nunes Skill Assessment: Nunes is a well-rounded fighter who looked very impressive against Mike Brown. He's a good striker although he mainly just throws kicks. He has quick leg kicks, likes to throw a lead leg head kick, and loves the spinning back kick. When he does throw his hands, he usually leads with a straight left or right, depending on which stance he's in. For a fighter with no wrestling background, Nunes showed off some impressive takedown defense against Brown, who is known for his powerful wrestling. Nunes is a purple belt in jiu-jitsu although because UFC pulls content from other sites and doesn't bother putting up WEC content on their site, I haven't seen much of Nunes on the ground. My guess is that he can hold his own against Florian, especially if he's on top, but he won't be able to submit Florian off his back. Nunes is very good in the clinch. He likes to grab the plum clinch, has good control with it, and throws very good knees to the body and head. Nunes is a rather large featherweight and should have a strength advantage in this fight.
Nunes Game Plan: Nunes needs to use his size, strength, and pace in this fight. This is Florian's first time cutting to 145 and history has shown that guys just don't have the stamina they usually have when making their first cut to a new weight. Nunes needs to wear on Florian and bully him around. I know Nunes is more a striker than a grinder but he has to be willing to change things up and get a little dirty in this fight.
Florian Skill Assessment: Like Nunes, Florian is a well-rounded fighter. He's a very technical striker, who use to just throw kicks but has really developed good boxing in recent years. He stands southpaw, a quick jab, and a good counter left straight. He uses a lot of kick feints but when he decides to throw them, he throws them quickly and with a lot of power. Florian's takedown defense has been suspect throughout his career but I do think it's better than he's given credit for. He stuffed all of Clay Guida's takedowns and we saw last weekend how good of a wrestler Guida is. Florian's trouble is against big, strong wrestlers, which Nunes is not. Florian has decent takedowns but after seeing Nunes stuff the takedowns of Brown, I'm not sure if he'll be able to get Nunes to the ground. On top though, Florian has very good control, loves using elbows, and uses head and arm control to set up his passes. Off his back he stays active with elbows and likes to use the omoplata to try and sweep. In tight, Florian likes to grab the plum clinch to throw knees and close quarter elbows. As mentioned above, this is Florian's first time cutting to 145 and so I don't expect him to fight up to his full potential. It's very possible that his conditioning won't be what it should be.
Florian Game Plan: One would think that Florian would have the size advantage considering he's cutting down but he just doesn't have that body type to be a power guy. So he needs to use his speed and boxing in this fight. Use his jab, put a straight left behind it, and just make it a technical fight. If the takedown is there, go for it but I wouldn't be overly concerned with it, especially because it could lead to him burning energy that he may not have.
Fight Prediction: This is a tough fight to call because no one really knows how the weight cut will affect Florian. My guess is that he'll get off to a strong start and then fade should the fight go to a third round. I think Florian will be able to do enough in the first two rounds though to sort of coast in the third, should his conditioning not be there. I'm keeping my expectations low simply because I fear that Florian will fight conservative by using a lot of jabs and movement and just frustrating Nunes with his reach.
Official Prediction: Kenny Florian to defeat Diego Nunes by Decision
Middleweight Fight: Mark Munoz vs. Demian Maia
Powerful wrestler Mark Munoz battles jiu-jitsu ace Demian Maia in a middleweight showdown with title implications.
Munoz Skill Assessment: Munoz is a strong wrestler with one punch power and some of the most brutal ground and pound in MMA history. He likes to strike but he's not a great striker. He has a stiff jab but he loads up a lot on his right hand and doesn't throw many straight punches. What I like about his striking though is that he's always throwing. He throws on the clinch break and he throws on the way up after failed takedowns. His strength is still his wrestling though. He has a quick single leg takedown although he doesn't set it up very well. He'd be a lot more dangerous if he threw the overhand right used it to go into a takedown but, up until now, he hasn't added that to his game. On top, he's a handful. He's great at posturing up and raining down his heavy hands. Off his back he's very good at quickly getting to his feet, and as mentioned above, throwing his hands on the way up. He's very strong in the clinch and does a nice job of staying active with knees. He has a tendency to be over-aggressive, which could be to his detriment against a grappler like Maia.
Munoz Game Plan: Munoz just needs to fight smart against Maia. Keep it on the feet for the most part because it should be an even fight, at worst, for Munoz if they're both standing. The in the final moments of the round, go for the takedown and secure the frame. He needs to use his jab to keep Maia at bay and set up his right hand, not just throw it wildly. He can't over-commit to his punches because Maia does a nice job of ducking under and getting takedowns.
Maia Skill Assessment: Even though he hasn't submitted an opponent since February 2009, Maia is still one of the best grapplers in the sport. His striking has improved over the years but it's still very basic. He stands southpaw and leads with an overhand left and then likes to throw a right hook. Even though he's not known for throwing many leg and body kicks, he'd be wise to use them in this fight, as long as he keeps his hands up when he throws them as a way to bait Munoz into a takedown. And if Munoz doesn't go for the takedown, then they'll score for him. Maia's striking is mainly just used to get inside though. Maia is a very underrated wrestler, especially in the clinch. He has a good single leg drag and in the clinch he's very crafty. He's great at using trips and throws to get his opponents down and he's also not afraid to pull guard in order to get the fight to the ground. On the ground, whether he's on top or on his back, Maia is aces. On top, he has excellent control and is very active with his strikes in order to set up his submissions and passes. I'd like to see him throw more elbows on the ground though. Off his back, he has excellent triangles and armbars and sets them up beautifully with wrist control. He's also good at using sweeps and initiating scrambles in order to end up in a dominant position. I'm a little worried about Maia's cardio. In his last two fights, he's faded a bit in the final five minutes. Now granted he works very hard on the ground and spends a fair amount of energy trying for takedowns and staying active on top but his conditioning could be improved.
Maia Game Plan: On the feet, Maia needs to use kicks and just wait for Munoz to become over-aggressive in order to get his takedowns. Use his strike to get inside on Munoz, clinch, and work from there. Take away the legs of Munoz with knees, look for trips, and try to get the fight to the ground by any means. On the ground, whether he's on top or bottom, Maia will be comfortable and he'll just look to do what he does best.
Fight Prediction: This will either be a chess match on the ground or dull striking contest. Either way, I favor Maia in the fight. I think he'll be able to frustrate Munoz on the feet by not engaging too much, which will lead to Munoz making a mistake that Maia will capitalize on in order to get things to the ground. From there, Maia will be able to control the fight and wear out Munoz with his grappling expertise.
Official Prediction: Demian Maia to defeat Mark Munoz by Decision
Heavyweight Fight: Jon Olav Einemo vs. Dave Herman
Competing in MMA for the first time 2006, Jon Olav Einemo takes on Dave Herman, who is making his UFC debut.
Einemo Skill Assessment: Einemo is one of the best pure grapplers in MMA. He's the only man to defeat Roger Gracie at ADCC, which tells you all you need to know about his jiu-jitsu skills. He also trains at Golden Glory, which houses some of the best strikers in MMA. As far as Einemo's striking goes, it's very basic. He has a decent jab but his best punch is a straight right hand. His striking is pretty much used to get inside and get the clinch though. He's very strong in the clinch and has quick and heavy hips, which helps him get takedowns. As you would expect, his top game is outstanding. He has great control and is very good at using that control and his craftiness to pass to better positions. Once he has the mount, he's almost impossible to shake off. As with most high-level grapplers, he's very patient in setting up his submissions and passes and makes sure to secure position before submission. The biggest concern with Einemo is that he hasn't had a MMA fight since 2006. So no matter how much he's been training or competing in grappling tournaments, he's going to have some cage rust. I'm also not sure he's ever competed in the cage, which is a disadvantage because it's something that does take getting used to.
Einemo Game Plan Obviously Einemo's best chance to win this fight is on the ground but he might be able to find success on the feet. Herman throws a lot of kicks, which leaves him open for straight right hands, which is Einemo's best punch. He needs to get inside on Herman, drag him to the ground, and work his ground game. Herman has a solid guard but he's not on the level of Einemo and in fairness, few are.
Herman Skill Assessment: Herman is a relatively well-rounded fighter who is finally getting his big break. His striking is solid but I think overrated by a lot of people. He has power in his hands but he doesn't really throw them. He prefers to throw mainly kicks, usually leg kicks and push kicks. Defensively he gets caught way too much with punches, especially with left hooks and straight right hands. Herman's strength is in the clinch. He has good balance, he's strong in the clinch, and he has an underrated muy-thai game. He's very active with elbows in the clinch. He'll throw them in tight and while trying to defending the takedown. On the ground he has a solid top game, heavy ground and pound, and I think he'll really benefit from being allowed to throw elbows in the UFC. Off his back he has a good defensive guard and again, loves to throw elbows. Of course I doubt he wants to spend too much time on the ground against a grappler like Einemo.
Herman Game Plan: Herman needs to keep the fight on the feet and make this a fast paced fight. Because Einemo hasn't fought in five years, his conditioning will likely suffer. Herman needs to push the pace and really test the cardio of Einemo. Herman should really look to use the cage to his advantage by bullying Einemo into the cage and batter him up with short elbows and knees.
Fight Prediction: I think Einemo is a very talented fighter who has talent beyond his grappling. But I can't favor him when he hasn't fought since 2006 because I don't know what we'll see from him or how much he's improved or regressed over the years. At least with Herman, I know what I'm getting, and while it's not always pretty, it's more often than not effective. I think Herman will be able to keep the fight standing, use the cage to his advantage, and rough him up with strikes.
Official Prediction: Dave Herman to defeat Jon Olav Einemo by TKO in Round Two
Lightweight Fight: Vagner Rocha vs. Donald Cerrone
Vagner Rocha makes his UFC debut on short notice against the always-entertaining Donald Cerrone.
Rocha Skill Assessment: Unfortunately I can't find any video of Rocha so I can only assess his talent based on what I've read/heard about him. Personally, I think every MMA organization that ever runs a show in the history of everdom should send me the video so I can properly do my job. Anyway, Rocha is a rather sloppy striker who throws a lot of overhand rights and leaves himself open to counter punches. His wrestling isn't great and it's certainly not on the level Jamie Varner, who Cerrone out-wrestled not too long ago. Rocha's strength is his jiu-jitsu. He's a jiu-jitsu black belt and even teaches down in Florida. Most of his wins have come via armbar, so I think it's safe to assume that he has a pretty good armbar. Rocha used to fight at welterweight so my guess is that he's a rather large lightweight. Rocha is taking this fight on short notice so I'm not sure how good his cardio will be.
Rocha Game Plan: Even though Rocha isn't a great striker, the overhand right could serve him well against Cerrone considering the amount of kicks and knees Cerrone likes to throw. Rocha needs to get the fight to the ground though and he needs to use his size to do so. Get the fight in the clinch, look for trips, and then work his top game while also avoiding the ground activity of Cerrone. Rocha is a much more technical grappler than Cerrone so he needs to try and turn this into a technical jiu-jitsu contest. He also needs to get off to a fast start. Cerrone is a slow starter and because Rocha's cardio may not hold up, he needs to look to get Cerrone out of there early.
Cerrone Skill Assessment: If nothing else, Cerrone is always exciting. He's a very good technical striker, although he gets hit way too often. He has a quick jab, likes to use a left hook-leg kick combo and throws a crisp one-two. He also likes to a throw a lot of knees up the middle to counter fighters coming in or trying to go to the ground. As mentioned, Cerrone gets hit a lot but his parents blessed him with an outstanding chin. Cerrone's wrestling has improved a lot over the years. Offensively, he does a nice job of ducking under his opponents strikes and getting takedowns. His takedown defense is what has really shown the most improvement as of late though, especially against Varner. On the ground, Cerrone is one of the most active fighters in the sport. He's constantly attacking, both on top and from his back, not only with strikes but also with submission and sweep attempts. His constant activity does get him in trouble though as he loses positions because he tries to move before he secures himself. A consistent problem that Cerrone has run into is his slow starts. In many first rounds, he looks like he's just going through the motions. It's only really cost him once in his career, in the second fight against Ben Henderson, but it's never good to almost give away the first round and put yourself in a position to have to win two straight rounds or finish. It's fair to question Cerrone's mind set considering that he was scheduled to face an Ultimate Fighter champion and a guy that he didn't like to now facing an unknown but Cerrone is the type a guy who just loves to fight. I'm pretty sure you could have told him that he was fighting me this weekend and he still would have trained like it was a title fight.
Cerrone Game Plan: Cerrone will most likely want to keep this fight standing. I'm sure he's confident in his grappling but there's no point in risking it when jiu-jitsu is Rocha's specialty. Cerrone needs to use his boxing and throw his knees up the middle. He may want to stay away from kicks so he doesn't give Rocha an opening for takedowns but if Cerrone doesn't feel threatened by Rocha's wrestling then I'm sure he'll let his legs go.
Fight Prediction: This is really Cerrone's fight to lose. He should be able to keep the fight standing and if he does, he should pick apart Rocha with his technical striking. I'm sure Cerrone will eat a punch or five, but he'll give 10 in return and his pace and power will eventually wear out Rocha.
Official Prediction: Donald Cerrone to defeat Vagner Rocha by TKO in Round Two

Given ready to come out fighting
HIS IMPORTANCE is easily gauged from the concern that greeted reports of his injuries over the last couple of weeks, but Shay Given insists he is "100 per cent" fit ahead of Ireland's critical encounter with Spain tomorrow night and determined to help the team make amends, not just for Croatia, but also for that World Cup defeat of a decade ago.
The fitness of the long-time Irish number one had been the source of huge speculation in the lead up to last weekend and there were those afterwards who questioned whether Giovanni Trapattoni had really been right to stick with him after the knee and thigh problems that had restricted his training in Dublin and Italy.
The 36-year-old, though, is adamant that his performance during the game itself was in no way hindered by any lack of fitness.
"Ideally I'd have liked to have trained more over the last couple of weeks, but it's fine," he says. "Did it affect me? Not really, no; I wouldn't have played if I wasn't 100 per cent, so I was fine.
"The first goal I just saw a bit late. There were a couple of the lads sort of blocking my view and by the time I saw it I didn't react quick enough or get enough to take it around the post. The third goal has just hit me smack on the forehead. It probably would have been better if I hadn't dived, it might have just come out, but it's easy in hindsight to say that. You've got to try and save the shot. There's nothing you can do."
None of it, in the end, was his fault and yet against Spain he will inevitably want, and most likely need, to do better if Ireland are to rescue themselves from elimination. Ten years ago, he recalls, he was disappointed with his own contribution as Ireland lost out on penalties to the same opponents "when it felt like we should have won it. The problem is that they've come a long way since then and so it's going to be more difficult for us now than it was then."
Even on its own, though, a clean sheet would be enough to give Ireland a chance of progressing when they face Italy in the last round of Group C games next Monday and it might even provide the basis for the unlikely victory that must be Ireland's ultimate aim, suggests the goalkeeper.
"Yeah, we can hurt them, hopefully. We certainly won't be trying to get everybody behind the ball," he says. "We'll try and cause them some problems as well. One of the biggest things will probably be set-pieces. They're renowned for maybe not being the biggest team in the competition and we've got some big players in our team, so if we get some of the right deliveries in there, as we saw against Croatia with the goal we scored, we've got the players who can get onto balls in the box.
"We hope this situation will bring the best out of us – I can only tell you on Thursday night or Friday morning. Sometimes in the past when everyone has given up on us we've come out fighting and proved that we're a decent team and we have to do that again."

Bible Verse for Tonight:
"For Christ also died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust, so that He might bring us to God, having been put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;"
I Peter 3:18 (NASB)
Issac Watts, Lowell Mason
When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,
And pour contempt on all my pride
Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
Save in the death of Christ my God!
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to His blood.
See from His head, His hands, His feet,
Sorrow and love flow mingled down!
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?
His dying crimson, like a robe,
Spreads o'er His body on the tree;
Then I am dead to all the globe,
And all the globe is dead to me.
Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were a present far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.

How does the PLA process work?
Prior Learning is demonstrated through a "challenge" process. The process measures learning through a variety of methods which may include tests, portfolio assessment, interviews, demonstrations, essays, and work samples. The method used will be determined in consultation with a Program Coordinator.
For more information and to determine if you are eligible for PLA, please call the Program Coordinator.
The process may take from 6 to 8 weeks.
Note: Not all courses can be challenged. For more information go to PLA website or contact your Program Coordinator.
Many students who enter Seneca College will have earned academic credits in post-secondary educational institutions which they may be able to apply toward completion of a Seneca College program.
Requests for Transfer Credit must be for a specific course and must be accompanied by an official transcript and course outline. A minimum grade of "C" (60 percent) is generally required for a course to be considered for Transfer Credit.
Download a Transfer Credit Request form. An official copy of your transcript and applicable detailed course outlines should be attached and submitted. Please note it may take 4 to 6 weeks for a Transfer Credit decision.
Please visit the Degree and Credit Transfer Office.
When you meet all program requirements and become eligible for a certificate, diploma, or degree, you must inform the Registrar by completing a Graduation Application form and paying the graduation and alumni fee. Certificates, diplomas, and applied degrees are issued twice a year in the Fall (October) and Spring (June).
For further information including deadlines and fees, please visit the Convocation website or contact the Convocation Office at 416-491-5050 ext. 77461.

Over the years, Len Durrant has become something of a legend in the Strat-o-Matic gaming community. His contributions, particularly to the computer version of the game have been expansive in scope and meticulous in detail and he's generously shared with the community some of his greatest work.
He's doing it again over at the Strat-o-Shack, as he has released a
Japanese Hall of Famers/Heroes set (link is broken, send me an email for working link) for the computer version AND, more importantly to me, as a carded version available to download and print yourself. This is manna from heaven for me, I can't wait to add some of these greats to my PUB League, where Sadaharu Oh already mans first base for the Yomiuri Giants.
In the past, Len has opened the Strat-o-Shack for short periods as he's offered other bits of his work, but closed down the download opportunity soon thereafter. If anyone is reading this post and finds the link broken or the download unavailable, contact me here through the comments of this post, or through twitter at: http://twitter.com/#!/heyblue and I'll be glad to email you a copy of the files.

Justin Bieber
We're happy because Justin Bieber is happy. And he's happy because he's performing for 500 lucky winners. And they're probably beaming. So everyone is happy, all because of Justin Bieber…
Rihanna and Piers Morgan
You'd think Rihanna would take Piers Morgan's burn about her new short haircut personally, but apparently making debatably offensive comments is the way to score an interview with her. Duly noted.
Sarah Hyland
Despite being such a historic day, "Gangnam Style" is still trending on Twitter. Probably because the power of Psy and Britney Spears are undeniable.
Lauren Conrad likes to tweet Instagram photos of all the amazing fashion shows she gets to go to this week so we can sit at our desks and
grit our teeth be happy for her.

I have been saying this for a long time and after Taiwan it happened again in the UK: according to AP Sony took the #2 spot from Nikon in the UK in volume sales of interchangeable lens models for December 2010 (Sony now has 25%, Nikon is down to 20%). I don't think Sony got to the #2 spot with better image quality but rather with innovation.

Bucharest (Jul. 25)
The bill, changing the regulations governing the organization of Jewish communities in Greater Roumania, sponsored and championed by the Maniu government despite the protests of Roumanian Jewish leaders, became a law when the Roumanian Parliament followed the action of the Senate, in passing the bill.
The House passed the measure by a majority of 216 against 34. The new law gives any Jewish group the right to form a religious congregation. The congregational system now enacted into law substitutes the principle of the unity of the Jewish community, adhered to hitherto. Under the old law only one Jewish community, with as many houses of worship, according to the respective rituals required, could exist. Jewish leaders, opposing the new measure, contended that the new law would bring chaos into Jewish communal life and disrupt its unity.

Skyline Plaza Frankfurt
Skyline Plaza is the newest trendy Shopping Mall in Frankfurt opened in September 2013. Located just next to the Frankfurt Fair, expect that it could be quite crowded especially on the days when there is a Fair Show. We would not suggest going there by car because the waiting lines to get into the parking space can sometimes be a bit too long. The easiest way to reach Skyline Plaza Frankfurt is to get there by U-Bahn, line U4, and get off at station Frankfurt Messe. From there is only few minutes walk to the shopping mall positioned in the heart of the new Europaviertel.

Mario Williams and Trindon Holliday continue to thrive away from the team that drafted them.
Williams was named Wednesday as AFC defensive player of the week, while Holliday earned special-teams honors.
Texans linebacker Brian Cushing and punter Shane Lechler were nominated.
Williams was the No. 1 overall pick of the 2006 draft. He joined Buffalo last season and recorded six tackles with a career-high 4.5 sacks against Carolina on Sunday, topping a four-sack team mark set by former Buffalo linebacker Cornelius Bennett and Hall of Famer Bruce Smith.
Holliday was a sixth-round selection in 2010. He returned four punts for 121 yards (30.3 average) against the New York Giants on Sunday, including an 81-yard touchdown. Holliday's recorded three kick return TDs since 2012.

Clearwire has made it clear that it will need more money in order to roll out its broadband wireless network to additional cities.
Today, the company, which had $1.5 billion in cash and short-term investments at the end of the first quarter, announced that it has closed on $1 billion in debt financing. The money will be used to refinance existing debt, extending it to a five-year maturity. It will also be used for expansion.
Investors in the deal include Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan and Citigroup, with additional debt financing to be raised in the next 45 days.
"Clearwire is capitalizing on the momentum we have in the market place to drive down our cost of capital, extend our debt maturities, simplify our balance sheet and provide additional capital resources," said Clearwire Chief Financial Officer John Butler in a prepared statement. "By opportunistically accessing the capital markets, we expanded our investor base and further strengthened the company's balance sheet."
Kirkland-based Clearwire, which offers wireless Internet service in 40 markets, including the Seattle area, went public at $25 per share in March. However, the stock has slumped in recent months due in part to the high capital costs of the business.
Today, the stock is making a small rally, trading at $25.14.
UPDATE: The stock ended the day up six percent at $26.40, which is the highest closing price since the company went public.

PROPOSALS to change how urgent care services are provided by South Tyneside medics have been unveiled.
From today, people are being asked to have their say on NHS suggestions which are aimed at reducing the number of unnecessary visits to A&E, which officials say could save them up to £2m a year.
The proposals include:
* Creating a new urgent care "one-stop shop" at South Tyneside District Hospital.
* The closure of Jarrow Walk-In Centre from May 2015.
* Improving people's access to GPs and pharmacies for minor illnesses and ailments.
The proposed shake-up comes as latest figures reveal that 60 per cent of patients seen at the borough's A&E ward didn't need treatment.
NHS South Tyneside Clinical Commissioning Group – the new body responsible for the planning and buying of health services in the borough – is holding a public consultation on the plans for the next 12 weeks.
Dr David Hambleton, chief officer of NHS South Tyneside CCG, said that when feeling unwell, many people go for the quickest option available to provide healthcare and reassurance urgently.
That can often mean heading to A&E, when treatment or advice from a pharmacist, nurse or GP may be the better option.
According to the CCG, 56,508 patients were seen and treated at South Tyneside General Hospital A&E in 2012/13, at a cost of £5.3m.
Of those, 33,379 attendances – 60 per cent of patients – didn't need any treatment at all and were given verbal or written advice and reassurance.
Urgent care means situations where treatment is needed quickly, but doesn't require a hospital stay or visit to A&E.
Services include the NHS 111 telephone service, GP practices and out of hours, pharmacies and walk-in centres.
CCG officials hope the new "one-stop shop" proposal for South Tyneside District Hospital will make it easier for people to find the right service, with all of them under the same roof.
Dr Hambleton said: "We know that the way local urgent health care services in South Tyneside are arranged are not helping patients understand where to go, or sign post to the right service for the right level of care, or provide an obvious and easily-accessible alternative to A&E.
"Many patients who go to A&E at South Tyneside District Hospital or call 999 for an emergency ambulance do not need the high-level specialised care these services give.
"For the majority of patients it would be better to go to a different health service, but many may be unaware of the different options available to them.
"It might also be that for some patients they cannot get to see their GP soon enough, or don't know what level of care or treatment they might need from different health professionals such as a pharmacist."
No decisions have yet been made and the consultation is taking place during next month, July and August to present the proposals and offer people a chance to the give their views.
There will also be three public meetings taking place about the proposals in June and July.
The consultation will run from today until Friday, August 22. Full details can be found at www.southtynesideccg.nhs.uk/get-involved/

Many types of hearing aids exist. So which is best for you? Find out what to consider when choosing a hearing aid.
Perhaps you've thought about getting a hearing aid, but you're worried about how it will look or whether it will really help. It may help ease your concerns to know more about:
Hearing aids can't restore normal hearing. They can improve your hearing by amplifying soft sounds, helping you hear sounds that you've had trouble hearing.
Hearing aids use the same basic parts to carry sounds from the environment into your ear and make them louder. Most hearing aids are digital, and all are powered with a hearing aid battery.
Small microphones collect sounds from the environment. A computer chip with an amplifier converts the incoming sound into digital code. It analyzes and adjusts the sound based on your hearing loss, listening needs and the level of the sounds around you. The amplified signals are then converted back into sound waves and delivered to your ears through speakers.
Hearing aids vary a great deal in price, size, special features and the way they're placed in your ear.
The following are common hearing aid styles, beginning with the smallest, least visible in the ear. Hearing aid designers keep making smaller hearing aids to meet the demand for a hearing aid that is not very noticeable. But the smaller aids may not have the power to give you the improved hearing you may expect.
A completely-in-the-canal hearing aid is molded to fit inside your ear canal. It improves mild to moderate hearing loss in adults.
A completely-in-the-canal hearing aid:
An in-the-canal (ITC) hearing aid is custom molded and fits partly in the ear canal. This style can improve mild to moderate hearing loss in adults.
An in-the-canal hearing aid:
An in-the-ear (ITE) hearing aid is custom made in two styles — one that fills most of the bowl-shaped area of your outer ear (full shell) and one that fills only the lower part (half shell). Both are helpful for people with mild to severe hearing loss.
An in-the-ear hearing aid:
A behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aid hooks over the top of your ear and rests behind the ear. A tube connects the hearing aid to a custom earpiece called an earmold that fits in your ear canal. This type is appropriate for people of all ages and those with almost any type of hearing loss.
A behind-the-ear hearing aid:
The receiver-in-canal (RIC) and receiver-in-the-ear (RITE) styles are similar to a behind-the-ear hearing aid with the speaker or receiver in the canal or in the ear. A tiny wire, rather than tubing, connects the pieces.
A receiver-in-canal hearing aid:
An open-fit hearing aid is a variation of the behind-the-ear hearing aid with a thin tube. This style keeps the ear canal very open, allowing for low-frequency sounds to enter the ear naturally and for high-frequency sounds to be amplified through the hearing aid. This makes the style a good choice for people with mild to moderate hearing loss.

Genre jumping jive with a deep acoustic/roots heart

Music Details
- Season: May 2010
- Performers: The Tiger and Me
- Classification: G
- Rating:
A musical affair predicated upon one of the heart was a pretty good place to start for a band who open their debut album celebrating a raunchy take on European cafe jazz, injected with blasts of New Orleans brassiness and gypsy swagger.
However this 5 piece band don't just walk the cobblestoned side of the street - there's enough multi-instrumentalists to allow for free wandering through jazz to country, European folk/gypsy and acoustic guitar and piano rock/pop tunes, allowing their songwriters the chance to mix and match different rhythmic approaches with gusto.
There's romance, there's sexy up-close singing from leads Ade Vincent and Jane Hendry, there's sweet harmonies and duets; there's also stomping all-in bar-room singalongs upon the likes of Oh My My Darlin' and The Circus or the Zoo.
Vincent pulls out the mandolin, ukulele and banjo along with acoustic guitar and piano, with Hendry contributing violin, ukulele and piano; Vincent's fellow Ballarat-born bandmate Tobias Selkirk handles some of the lead singing as well as piano accordion, banjo and piano, with double bassist Tim Keegan and drummer Sarah Galdes locking down the rhythm section.
Some choice decisions on inviting in some brass players - including someone to honk the tuba - brings the raunchy speakeasy feel to particular turning points on the album, but midway through this debut the band actually takes that turn at Alberquerque .
Upon Many Things, the band heads out into country-rock territory, bringing banjo and violin to the fore and sweet harmonies from Vincent and Hendry.
Towards the end of the album we're back to shot-glass banging singalong and, European swirls of violin and stomp with Lead a Merry Dance Around the Fire; the slightly strange situation recounted in the lyrics suits the accelerating and decelerating tempos building a manic craziness to it all.
It's the sound of late nights enjoyed either with friends or something more intimate, it's the first studio album from a band who are only going to pick up more festival and tv appearances as the year goes on and word spreads about this music.

They shy away from the responsibility of forming and leading a group.
I can post links but are ya going read them? If so I'll post links to threads I read on the subject as best forums allow.
I don't really care about this personally. Not a LFG/LFD type player. Rarely PUG- not my thing. So really don't care about them too much.The question then becomes, is it good to cater to these anti-social players in a game that's defining feature is its social aspect? Perhaps these players who do not enjoy the social aspect of games would be better off playing single-player games.
Merely pointing out automated LFG/LFD tools are seen as a bullet point for MMOs now. And the smashing success LFG/LFD tools have been for games that implement those systems vis-a-vis non automated LFG options or older options.
Although I think people whose livelihood depends on a large player base would say, "yes" to the latter part of your question. Heh.

if you happen to have tens of thousands of "friends" in every game you play, good for you, but it's not like it's the case for everyone.
and if you think about it a moment, Anet sort of made a few things that eventualy helps all the "solo" players in the outside world.
you don't need to be in a group to be rewarded for :
-minion slaying : while you may not get something to loot everytime, as long as you damaged some mob you get a chance to loot something from it and are assured to get xp.
Im not questioning that some players shy away from the responsibility, im saying that it might be unwise to cater the game to such players.
What criteria do you use to define LFD tools as a "smash success"? The fact that people use them? Of course they use them, they are easy. Easy is not always good. I hated the LFD tool in WoW, but I used it rather then look for people in trade for the simple reason that no one was interested in forming a manual group anymore, in large part because people wanted the free teleport to the dungeon rather then having to fly there. I was a user of the LFD tool and contributor to their statistical popularity, yet I was strongly opposed to it.
Popularity is a dangerous tool to use to evaluate a system that doesn't have any real competitor. Players will always take the path of least resistance, and the LFD tool is most definitely that. But I think this is a case where players need to be saved from themselves; the fast, easy convenience is so destructive to the community that its simply not worth it, imo.

Of course because people use them. They are created to service the needs of the player base.What criteria do you use to define LFD tools as a "smash success"? The fact that people use them?
When Rift introduced their LFG tool their developers reported the traffic of players in dungeons and completing dungeons had more than doubled. Aion and EQ2's added auto group tools also increased the number of dungeon participants by a large degree. Just to name a few well known sub based MMOs.
Just POV. Not all see it as such. Doubt developers interested in making money would ignore an LFG addition if the player base wished it so. Being concerned over LFG systems as a "good" or "bad" thing seems kinda silly.Easy is not always good. <snip>
And as I stated above, the effect LFD had on the community was heavily overrated.
And there are basically two options, which is either a LFD-tool or a LFG channel. The advantages of a tool outway those of a channel for most players. As said above, people don't take the initiative to start inviting other people, so most are just stuck in the channel. Some will be spamming LFG, but hardly anyone will go LFM, because they didn't invite anyone in the first place.
How does this apply to GW2: In Guild Wars 2 they could easily make the tool server-based, since the major reason to expand beyond server-level is the lack of healers and/or tanks, which is a non-issue in GW2. The (perceived) downside of such a tool (the impact on the server community) is removed, so everyone can be a happy panda.
Resurrected Holy Priest
- Hand: n., A singular instrument worn at the end of the human arm and commonly thrust into somebody's pocket. - Ambrose Bierce, The Devil's Dictionary
I remember in Wrath that you just queued looked through who is available and whispered people. I never once was thought to be the leader on my dps chars. And on my tank chars, no matter if I made the group or got invited myself, I was almost always(like 90% of time) expected to lead. So I did!
So yes, it worked. Oh, did it take longer to make groups? yes, that it did, why lie? Id took longer because it was "first whisper, first served" so you could have stood 5 hours looking for a tank, if someone else whispered him/her first, bad luck. That was the biggest drawback.
Now if nobody knew at all what's in the dungeon, then yes, it could be a problem, but that's why guilds were invented, and general chat and whispers or whatever they'll be called in Guild Wars.
- Hand: n., A singular instrument worn at the end of the human arm and commonly thrust into somebody's pocket. - Ambrose Bierce, The Devil's Dictionary
In the end the game is a MMO, as in to be played with other people. If you don't want to do that, you're not playing the game as it is intended, and as such it's not the game for you. This is not a rude thing to say, if you don't like to group up, a MMO is not for you. As in, if you like to group up with people, a single-player RPG is not for you. It's just a characteristic of a game that doesn't fit your demands.
This issue has already been resolved earlier in this thread. There wont be a need for a LFD tool because of how easy it will be to manually put a group together due to scaling and no holy trinity. The success of LFD cannot be measured by opinions alone, but even to this day it's still not received well by much of the WoW community. It's really not the tools fault though, but players in cataclysm with overinflated egos, and the fact that getting into high level cata content is hard as hell unless you're leet and in a raiding guild full of douche bags. If cataclysms content was Wrath scaled, I'm sure you'd see the social aspect still in the game.
Even after LFD was added in wrath, no one really started complaining about it until a few months after cata when it got a revamp. We can sit here and argue that it was a good tool, but in all honesty, it was a terrible idea, and Blizzard shot WoW in the face by adding it. Also saying "no one liked looking for a group in chat" is a pretty flaccid argument, if that's the case, then no one would have liked WoW or even EQ in the first place. The only time people stopped "liking" looking for a group is after LFD was implemented. They stopped liking it because there was an easier alternative to grouping (LFD) and thus looking for a group in chat became 10 times harder. Pretty much that argument is a donkey punch in rational thought's blowhole.
You can freely transfer servers in GW2. I don't see how an LFD system would damage a server community when you can change servers with no penalty.
On the other hand though, a LFD tool is simply not needed in GW2 with the removal of the trinity system.

OT: idk about you guys but one reason I'd like to have no LFD system at all, is because you can't black list total ass holes. Like the people gay girlie described were all black listed on my server pre wrath(idk why more showed up). IMO it made the experiences better because you never ha that egotistical tool ruining everyone else experience and pointing balance on someone else at the first mistake they make whether you make it through the encounter or not.

And again, the argument wasn't about not having to be in a group at all to do dungeons. I atleast never claimed anything even remotely like that.
---------- Post added 2011-11-20 at 04:56 PM ----------
Yeah, there's nothing more to WoW and EQ than doing dungeons, right? Oh, wait, there's quite a lot more..Also saying "no one liked looking for a group in chat" is a pretty flaccid argument, if that's the case, then no one would have liked WoW or even EQ in the first place.

Free server xfers, or payed server xfer: Since everyone is looking at facts so much in this thread.Try telling that to people on low-pop realms.
Let me clarify: I was speaking in terms of dungeons. That's what my whole post was about.Yeah, there's nothing more to WoW and EQ than doing dungeons, right? Oh, wait, there's quite a lot more..
No, you were saying no one would've liked WoW or EQ at all. See the "no one would have liked WoW or even EQ in the first place." quote there? Well, there happens to be a lot more to both games than just dungeons, so trying to equate that people who don't like manually yelling in chat trying to get groups wouldn't like the rest of the game is a fallacy.Let me clarify: I was speaking in terms of dungeons. That's what my whole post was about.
You could even say that no one would've liked _dungeons_ in WoW or EQ because of that, but again that would fall flat on its face: how hard it is to get to the dungeon itself doesn't correlate with how enjoyable the dungeon itself is once you are inside.

i would say essential.
its so annoying spamming chat lfg/m.. just reading it is tiresome. ive done it for a long time in wow and it was horrible i dont want to do it ever again. EVER.
cant minimize cant do anything else while searching. you just have to sit there a read text until your eyes bleed
even without holy trinity, lets say u want to do a dungeon in the middle of the night. and theres probably people interested but maybe they r not reading at that moment..
with lfg tool, if theres people who want the group will be formed! meanwhile you can absolutely forget about that and do some events or whatever without having to read the spam chat

MS-like symptoms, depression, etc
Posted by: A Ro
Date: February 17, 2006 5:34 AM
A year after giving birth I started having sensations of numbness in my face and sometimes on either arm. I had a bad hip and lower back pain, major knots in my back and neck. My feet tingled, and were sometimes asleep when I woke up. My joints actually cracked and popped as I got up. All of this was new to me. A couple of times I thought I felt dizzy or that my gait was off. My OB/GYN scheduled an MRI for MS, but my intuition said that wasn't it. I started eating organically, drinking more water, cut out processed foods, I take whole food suppliments and just recently added Kombucha tea and royal jelly. I feel great. My question is, can toxicity give the above symptoms? I really feel that my body was overloaded with past antibiotic use, horrible food choices, and then really given a whollop by my rough birth and my first medication-filled hospital stay. My doctor, however, lectures me that I should still get an MRI, even though I haven't had symptoms in a long time. Any thoughts?

If an MRI were a dangerous procedure, I would fall on the side of deferring it. However, as it is not, I see no reason not to have the information it could yield. It does seem likely that you were toxic or suffering from a chronic infection (which is just another kind of toxicity) and perhaps you still are but have managed to compensate for it with the adoption of a healthy lifestyle. If you abandonded your super-healthy lifestyle I wonder if your symptoms would return. If they did, I would say you were simply compensating from an underlying illness. What that underlying illness might be - there is not enough information present to have a clear idea of it.

So, what about all of the books I've been reading lately that say you can turn just about any health problem around with a clean, organic, sometimes raw, diet? I didn't think taking on a healthy lifestyle masked problems. I thought synthetic medications masked problems. Why go in when I have no symptoms at all? I watched my grandparents, and now my mother, take a downward spiral once they were put on meds for one problem, then another, etc, etc - and they spent so much unnecessary money on "tests" that accounted for nothing. Spending $6K on an MRI when I feel fine seems exteme to me. What type of holistic doctor could I speak with about past symptoms and what to do from here?

You make your side of the argument very well and you have good points. I do not necessarily agree. If you want a list of possible doctors, use the Find A Doctor function - yellow tab at the top of this page.

Experimental Psychology Myers 7th Edition
TextBooks Description
With a focus on experimental methods, authors Anne Myers and Christine Hansen lead students step by step through the entire research process, from generating testable hypotheses to writing the research report. The main parts of the book correspond in part to a research report (Introduction, Methods, Results and Discussion), which provides students with the skills necessary to design and implement an experiment, analyze and interpret research findings and reports. While the main focus is on experimentation, alternative approaches are discussed as important complements.
Although I never stopped doing the test myself, several people advised me to buy this book, which is actually the recommended textbook is listed the contents of the research project ECE test methods. After skimming, although it seems to cover what is being tested (the Guidelines). But to get a used copy, if you do not want to pay + $ 100 for a new one.

Revitol Eczema – A Review of a Eczema Therapy Cream
Do You Suffer From Eczema?
Do You Suffer From Skin Conditions?
I was recently informed of a new product on the market – Revitol Eczema Cream
So I got about researching it to see what I could find – below are my findings:
** Update – 30th Mar 16 – Free Shipping Trick didn't work as of this AM – It's worth trying again if you decide to order – but it 'proof' that it isn't always available like I first thought.
** Update – 22th Jan 16 ** – Free Shipping is now available for a limited time.

Revitol Eczema Review – My Thoughts
Below is a combination of what I have found out, read & researched about Revitol's latest cream, this time, a cream for tackling eczema.
The first section will cover the cost of the product & then moving on to the ingredients & where to buy etc – all the usual things you can expect from my reviews.
What Does Revitol Eczema Cream Cost?
I always like to start here. After all, if you can't afford it then why would you want to read any more about it! Luckily this is an eczema cream so hopefully anybody that might need it can afford it.
1 Tube – $39.95
3 Tubes – $79.90 (2 + 1 Free)
6 Tubes – $119.85 (4 + 2 Free)
In fairness, for a cream, I would say that it was quite expensive! but if you add to the mix that you are suffering from eczema & want it gone, then I imagine $40 doesn't seem to bad; especially if your 'appearance' with eczema is causing anxiety.
Having suffered myself in the past with anxiety issues (not related to eczema), I can totally understand why someone would then gladly spend $40 to try it out.
Before you go looking for a Revitol eczema discount code or coupon code; or indeed spend hours online trying to research a Revitol Eczema free trial I can put you out of your misery and let you know that none of them exist. There is no Revitol money off codes anywhere. Revitol as a company works exclusively on the 'The More You Buy- The More You Save' principle.
In my humble opinion, I like that way of doing business, it means that nobody misses out or gets caught out.
What Is In Revitol's Eczema Cream?
Usually, I don't really care what is in most 'cosmetic' products – I just want to know if they work. BUT I do realize that if you have problem skin & suffer from eczema that if you are trying an eczema cream that will want to know what it contains!! – So see below & be enlightened:
– Colloidal Oatmeal –
Revitol's Cream contains colloidal oatmeal it is the powder from the grinding and processing of whole oat grain.
The FDA has said colloidal oatmeal is a safe and effective skin protectant. Its active ingredient can protect and help relieve minor skin irritation and itching due to eczema and rashes.
There is a lot more on their website about it if you are interested – Eczema Therapy Cream – Ingredients
Revitol Eczema Side Effects?
I could write more, but the ingredients are 100% natural & I didn't come across any reportings of issues.
Eczema Therapy Cream A Scam?
I put this one in for my own amusement. If there is anything sold online at least one person will be searching to see if it is a scam! If you are that person, then this section is for you! No is the answer. Revitol is a big company and sells a lot of good quality products online. End of.
Does Revitol Eczema Work?
From what I have read, I would say the majority of reviews were positive. As it is a skin based product then a 100% success rate it pretty unobtainable and the only way you will ever find out if it works, is if you try it! Revitol's creams, including their Eczema Therapy
Revitol's creams, including their Eczema Therapy product, will come with a 30-day money back guarantee so in theory you would have nothing to lose.
Where To Buy Revitol's Cream for Eczema
That is easy! Always from the Official Site. The main reason I say that is I know, for a fact, that Revitol only supplies their products direct to the public. They do not sell it to 'middle-men'.
So anything you see on Amazon, Ebay or the like has come via someone else & not direct from Revitol.
The issues with that are many-fold – Is it genuine? Is it out of date? Have you paid too much? Has it been tampered with? The list goes on & this is your health & it is your skin…..why would you want to take any risks!?!?
Anyway, I have saved you any concerns – just click the 'I NEED THIS' button below & it will take you directly to their website! & don't forget the Free Shipping Trick
Cheers! – Kathy.
** Update – 30th Mar 16 ** – Free Shipping 'Trick' has stopped working – May change & still worth trying
