Parent involvement
Honestly this school is horrible. Teachers treats students with no respect and administrative doesn't help at all. What happened to give respect get respect. Hate this ducking school.
Revere High School is a high quality school with an exceptional leadership team that puts students' interest at the center of its priorities. As a result, the standardized test results have gone up dramatically in recent years. The current administration is working with students, teachers, and parents towards developing an environment that personalizes teaching and learning. Additional organizational and leadership structures (small learning communities) aimed at assisting freshman students with high school transition and reducing dropout rates are being developed. I am proud to be part of this school.
This schools is honestly a lot of pooooooo... Not many great teacher///extreamly hot...... i would never have my kids go to a school like this...eeewwwwww
Revere High School is a great school. The sports teams are average and the coaches really work the kids hard and they are decitated. Also, the teachers at rhs are awesome! They can really relate to the kids and excell at their jobs. The kids from revere might seem like bad kids but they are really just not given a chance. I am a kid from revere as well and i love my school and city. Revere High teaches you about having pride and i think this is really important. Everyone is really friendly here, and very welcoming. Its easy to makee friends and love RHS.
As a graduating student of the class 07, I can say that Revere High School is one of the 'better' schools out there. It has its flaws though. From dirty bathrooms, mediocre teachers to students who are in gangs or pretend to be. The school tries too hard to pay attention on the football team. Overall, good school.
Academic achievement is the sole responsibility of the student. If a student is more interested in playing football (or being cool) than aquiring an education, then they will have little chance of escaping Revere's depressed community. While I had a number of just plain bad teachers at RHS, I realize that my education could have been better had I applied myself. I was fortunate to get into college and it was there that I became familiar with the term 'academia' and what the pursuit of a higher education meant. And FYI folks, concern yourselves with how your kids are performing academically, and let go of your football dreams.
I am Currently enrolled in Revere High School and i must say that observing that it currently only has a 4 out of 10 caught me compleatly off guard. Revere high is the best school I've ever attended. Most kids from this school could say that and it wouldnt mean anything because its the only high school theyve attended, but as a student who has been to 6 schools within the past 4 years i can say that Revere high school is not just a bunch of punks and thugs as most people make it out to be, but a warm and welcoming community of students. I am planning on finishing my senior year here in revere with the teachers and friends ive gotten so close to and learned to love.
I have failed to succeed in a school as such. There are way to many teachers and staff members worried about wether or not or scores are up and we are performing well on the MCAS than actually sitting down and teaching and trying to help kids out along the way. I feel as though I was pushed through the school system. The sports program is among the worst with the exception to hockey and cheering.
I have to agree w/the parent who wrote in 7/2005 regarding the football team. They get all the glory. Teacher's are great, from Mr. Bounanno to Mr. Marquette (no longer at RHS, big loss for RHS)to Mr. Eatough to Ms. Dakin and also a substitute teacher Mr. Murphy, they are all great teachers. They should have more teachers like them. Oveall, RHS is a great school.
This School is one of the most amazing Schools ever. Teachers and Staff are excellent. Academic programs are some of the best I have ever seen. Couple of activitities are awesome. Parent involvement is excellent. This is Truly a Five Star School! Thanks RHS!
As a concerned student attending Revere High School, I believe that Revere High School is attaining a wretched reputation because of the minority of indivuduals who do not embody our enthusiasm for intellectual expansion on every level. As for the quality of teachers, many of them have been able to enlighten me as well as aid me in achieving all of my ambitions. Mary Ellen Dakin, David Eatough, Brian Cullivan, Mark Fellowes, Marilyn Penta, and Samantha Meier are several of the myriad of outstanding teachers at Revere High School. Many students have high goals for academic achievements. The class od 2007 is the first class in the history of Revere High School to have several individuals with a GPA of over 5.00, on a scale of 5.00. Cliques are not overly abundant at RHS, everyone is able to intermingle and develop friendships which will last a lifetime.
The sports programs are many, however like alot of cities football and cheerleading recieve the most attention, wehre the swim team for instance doesnt get so much as a thankyou, never mind team jackets, banquets etc. The advanced placement courses are good but students having difficulty in them are not given the help they need, inturn leaving them feel like failures. The overall mentality of the student body is unlike when I was growing up, here it seems the gang bangers and thugs are most popular among other students. Whereas that typicaly used to be football players and cheerleaders. I see good kids trying to act tuff so they will fit in and in this school it takes a very strong personality to be yourself and not give in all in the name of popularity.
If a child is in the honors program, such as my granddaughter was, the quality of teachers, and preparation for college is great, she went on to have high marks in college and is now a junior doing co-op with a prestigious co. The cheerleading group when we were involved had great parent, kids, and coaches involvement and enthusiasum. Thus the team thrived, and also won National Titles,were kept very busy practicing and active and also were helped to further keep trying and kept booosting their confidence. Academically the availability of the teachers in the honors programs was unsurpassed, they were mentors and confidants.
Lack instruments necessary for proper learning and instruction purposes make for the wasted time of students in an un-equipped environment.

Baby humpback whale injured in Hawaii waters
Hawaii, United States (4E) – Fishery crews with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration are responding to a whale that's trapped in the reef in waters off east Oahu in Hawaii.
According to Hawaii television news, a baby humpback whale was badly injured.
The animal was spotted by a local fisherman at about 4 p.m. at Kawaikui Beach Park near Aina Haina.
By the time NOAA officials arrived, the animal was no longer entangled, but officials added that it sustained cuts and contusions all over the body.
The baby whale is about 15 feet long and weighs up to 3,000 pounds. NOAA looked for the whale's mother, but she had abandoned her baby.
NOAA officials added that baleen whales like don't usually do well in rehabilitation, taking it to a facility is probably not an option, adding that " let nature take its course and have it perish on its own, or potentially, euthanasia.

Grimmlette - good points, especially about the MOTD and space in notes. But I have some tips for Officer Notes that might help you....
We also keep join date and alt names in Officer notes. We came up with a notation that keeps the space maximized. For date, use YYMMDD ,, etc. You can usually get 3 alt names in before you run out of space. Then in ach alt, we put the Main's name. It's not perfect, but it has helped. One other tip on alts names - the Prat "chat" addon is fantastic for this, as is Guild Extender. I use Prat because it's simpler to use, but you can mark alts easily with both.
One change that was overlooked that would be VERY helpful for GM's would be to separate Repair gold from Withdrawal gold. I don't mean the checkbox we currently have, but there should be TWO gold amounts. My guild provides unlimited repairs to anyone that is a Member and above. But I don't want to provide unlimited gold withdrawal to Officers. With the current system, I can't open up one without opening up the other.
An "instanced" guild hall seems to be the thing we've all been asking for for years. Make some of these perks or guild currency spendable in the guild hall, and based on the guild level. It's nice to have a place to hang out, but if you put perks inside the guild hall (like Void Storage, mount vendor, guild bank tabs, etc), it would increase guild member interaction.
We do use MMDDYY. So Gimmlette joins 1-9-12. She brings her alt in so the Officer note read's Gimm's alt 1-9-12. Gimm's daughter joins. She's 8 and officers need to know this. "Gimm's daug, age 8, 1-9-12". Gimm's daughter brings an alt in. Quickly, the information officers need to know gets filled because there's not enough allowed space to type and that's even if we agree on what abbreviations to use. Come on Blizz. Give me 50 spaces. I'll look into those add-ons for my use.
A number of people who still refuse to go to Altoholics Anonymous use "Identity". So, when Gimm is on an alt, their chat reads "Grimm (Gimmlette)", which is a tremendous help to new people and to me, to get to know who goes with whom.

Magazine names hospital as one of most 'wired' in nation
By Sally Voth -- email@example.com
WOODSTOCK -- You could say Shenandoah Memorial Hospital is wired for sound practices.
The Woodstock hospital was recently named as one of the nation's most "wired" small or rural hospitals by Hospitals & Health Networks magazine, the American Hospital Association's journal. It was the only Virginia hospital in that category to make the list, according to a news release from the hospital.
"We're thrilled about it," SMH President Floyd Heater said Wednesday afternoon. "This is our second year in a row. It's something that we worked real hard at the last two or three years, to get more wired, to really try to put new technology into place to try to improve patient care, improve safety. Our medical staff, our employees are just to be commended for it. I think there's more to come."
Information technology can put some safety nets into patient care, reducing human error, he said.
"There's built-in safeguards when you're ordering
According to the news release, the hospital adopted computerized provider order entry and bar-coded medication management in the past two years. All clinical lab tests have been bar-coded, and there are plans to install a digital method for "storing and authorized sharing of medical imaging tests," it says.
"In addition to this award being a testament to patient safety, this type of technology implementation will ultimately reduce costs," says Valley Health Chief Information Officer Joan Roscoe in the release. "All of this is very timely with the current economic downturn and the government's stimulus plan to streamline healthcare."
Every hospital in the country was offered the survey, said Alden Solovy, editor of Hospitals & Health Networks, and 159 rural and small hospitals participated. He said the survey has been around 11 years.
"The use of information technology among hospitals supports a variety of goals," Solovy said. "It supports patient care, i.e., safety and quality. It supports good business practices. It supports customer service. [It] can drive a wide variety of important strategies and important goals for a hospital."

Inside the Ravens' victorious locker room Saturday night, coach John Harbaugh read aloud to the players as he relayed a text message on his phone from majority owner Steve Bisciotti.
Suffering from the flu, Bisciotti wasn't able to attend the Ravens' dramatic 38-35 double-overtime victory over the Denver Broncos.
Even before the outcome was decided, Bisciotti wanted to express his pride in the AFC North champions to Harbaugh. So, Bisciotti texted Harbaugh with the Ravens trailing by a touchdown late in the fourth quarter in Denve.

"I've never texted you during a game," said Harbaugh in the locker room afterward as he read the message to the players. "We are down, 35-28. And I think it's the best game I've ever seen us in the playoffs since 2000. Win or lose, I am so proud of the team and proud of you."
Following Jacoby Jones' 70-yard game-tying touchdown catch in the final minute of regulation, the Ravens won the game on Justin Tucker's 47-yard field goal in the second overtime.
"I'm not going to say on his deathbed, but he was really sick," Harbaugh said. "He couldn't get up and move around at all. … It was just something I thought the team needed to hear coming from him. He's a great leader. Our players love him.
"They love when he's around. He's an inspiration to all our guys. This organization, he sets the tone here. It's a great organization because of his vision. The guys needed to hear that in that moment. I think they appreciated hearing it."

Strategies for Zonal Cartilage Repair using Hydrogels
Klein, Travis J. and Rizzi, Simone C. and Reichert, Johannes C. and Georgi, Nicole and Malda, Jos and Schuurman, Wouter and Crawford, Ross W. and Hutmacher, Dietmar W. (2009) Strategies for Zonal Cartilage Repair using Hydrogels. Macromolecular Bioscience, 9 (11). pp. 1049-1058. ISSN 1616-5187
Restricted to UT campus only: Request a copy
|Articular cartilage is a highly hydrated tissue with depth-dependent cellular and matrix properties that provide low-friction load bearing in joints. However, the structure and function are frequently lost and there is insufficient repair response to regenerate high-quality cartilage. Several hydrogel-based tissue-engineering strategies have recently been developed to form constructs with biomimetic zonal variations to improve cartilage repair. Modular hydrogel systems allow for systematic control over hydrogel properties, and advanced fabrication techniques allow for control over construct organization. These technologies have great potential to address many unanswered questions involved in prescribing zonal properties to tissue-engineered constructs for cartilage repair.

Another blower question
I'm planning a 400 sbc blown build, using eagle internal balance kit with je 36 dish piston all forged,
Using a dart shp block, carburated, haven't picked cam yet or heads, probably go with afr 220's with a 75cc chamber and a solid roller cam. Plan to run around 9 psi.
Question is, I've built many small blocks up to 450 hp but never built over that and never in a blown application. Are there any tricks for tolerance? Specs? Or any special details I should be watching for when building blown short block? I have a good speed shop here that can do all the machining. Also never done a 400, do I have to worry about steam holes with all these after market pieces?
And no I'm not interested in having my speed shop build it.
Thank guys
On a street engine you will need the steam holes drilled in heads you are using,you can get by on engines no turning Less than around 3000 rpm such as circle track ,we ran Late Model Modified on dirt with alumimum block and Brodix # 7 heads prepared by Race Engine Design .we drilled heads just to be sure,some did not,but some had problems in pack out and during caution,I am assuming you will need all the help you can get to cool blown engine, I have built hundred or so racing engines But Never a blown engine ,will be building BBC with 671 crager blower later this year ,Just my opinion someelse might help us both ,Good luck
your ring gap needs to be increased.
spin or fbird can give exact specs when they see this thread.
dont be shy with the heads,227s might be nicer
Build a 7.5:1 cr 355 cid sbc and supercharge it. 6-71 or 8-71
Keep it simple with off the shelf parts. It will make all the power you will ever need.
I contacted BDS They recomend cutting a second keyway in crank snout to keep hub from stripping key and spinning crank hub and destroying crank snout,also Must run run forged cranh and forged 8.1 or less pistons for street with 7 lbs boost or less,Is this just a recomendation or a Must,anyone had any experiance wiyh this ,It is a 454 stroker=496 i have steel crank forged pistons ,but stock rods with arp bolts in rods and mains are arp studs ..671 blower i have a crager and a weiand ,which would be better.have already purchaced Comp Cam Blower Cam.roller rockers pushrods roller chain,115cc aluminum heads 225/188 valves do not want to change these
496CHEVY3100, why not start a separate thread, that way things won't get confused between your questions and the OP.
My god, blowers are nuts.
The power is awesome.
"Choosing the proper camshaft would be the most important requirement for a blower motor. An improper cam will cause a variety of problems that can easily be avoided by following a few simple guidelines. Hydraulic cams are recommended if you intend to drive the vehicle frequently, requiring little or no maintenance, and the maximum engine RPM's are kept around 6500 or lower. Roller rocker arms are recommended. Flat tappet and roller cams are recommended for high performance applications especially where the engine will see high RPM's. Exact camshaft specifications vary depending on the performance level you wish to attain. BDS offers different types or stages of cam grinds specifically made for blower motors. Refer to camshaft specs listed in tech info for BDS' individual engine camshaft specifications and their intended uses.
If you wish to purchase your cam from one of the many fine camshaft manufacturers, we suggest using our camshaft specs as a guidline. Extremely high lift and long duration cams are recommended for high RPM, high performance racing only.
The lobe center of the cam will play an important role in determining the performance characteristics of an engine. Wide lobe centers (112 to 114 degrees etc.) will create higher cylinder pressure providing more horsepower with cooler burning fuel such as alcohol and methanol. We have found 110° lobe centers to produce the best overall power on gasoline.
Whatever cam you choose, make sure that it will operate and perform properly in the RPM range required for your application."
I don't know what it is that makes you guys jump up and buy the cam as one of the first items. Cam and torque converter should be the last 2 items bought, after you've finished the drivetrain and everything else.
Ya I've heard about running wider gap, but yet some say to run a second gapless ring?
So you don't see any advantage to running a 400 vs 355 even though they will all be brand new parts? Obv we've all heard of typical problems with a 400 but even with dart block and all aftermarket parts?
after market dart blocks are great. 400 is a good starting point for your engine
in real street strip performance gain.
The 355cid "keep it simple" blower motor is powerfull and reliable and more than delivers the goods.
A after market block is not required.
You could build a big block 454 based motor for the money it will cost you.
Way better return in both performance and reliabily, with a big block . VS a big cube SB w aftermarket block etc.
Again simple cost effective brute strength and reliable supercharged power with a BBC, when you need more than 650-700
hp supercharged street power. Its hands down better to go this path.
Is 650+ horsepower and 500+ ft/lbs torque enough?
The 7.5:1cr pump gas 355 6-71 or 8-71 delivers this. Real simple to build.
Remember, this is more than enough to shread a 9" rearend. And split a trans case in half.
why make it more complex and costly than it needs to be.?
How much power/performance are you really after? how will it be used? purpose....
thing about the 400 you got to run that big heavy crankhub for ex balanced that and pulleys for alt etc. puts alot of strain on the end of the crank. As far as quench no need to worry about it on a blown engine. We just had a crank hub twist off, bent end of crank on 383 idling was running a spacer behind blower pulley, not a good setup

How to Put a Collar on a Cat
Cats can be a little feisty if you try to put a collar on them, especially if they're used to not wearing one (which is often the case if you're dealing with an adult cat). It's a little more difficult than putting a collar on a kitten because kittens can adapt more easily.
1Consider trimming your cat's nails before you attempt this. If things get crazy, you won't get scratched as badly. (Do the trimming the day before, though, so you're not doing too much to your cat in one day.)Ad
2Consider buying a cat collar with a bell and an emergency release if the cat usually goes outside. This allows songbirds and other small animals to escape before being pounced upon, however if your cat has never worn a collar before you may wish to remove the bell for the first day or two of getting your cat used to the collar. My cat tore off and lost several collars within hours but when I tried without a bell he literally did not seem to notice a collar had been put on. The best collars have elastic parts that can expand or snap apart (or break away) to allow the cat to wriggle out of the collar if it gets caught on a tree branch or some other place (preventing the cat from getting injured or killed from suffocation or hanging).
3Shake it a little in front of your cat and have your cat play with it. Let the cat sniff it, jingle the bell and paw at it.
4Try popping it on quickly. After your cat has played with it, just put it on her or him with a quick and firm action. Likely your cat will squirm for a time because it is something new and definitely not something wanted, but you can persevere. Let time do its work of allowing the cat to become used to the collar. After a few hours, the cat will come to a realization that the collar is there to stay...
5Try again if your cat continues to resist. It may work better to introduce the collar more gradually, with short wears to begin with and gradually increase this to longer and more permanent wearing. The downside of this approach is that the cat will hear the collar coming, will see it in your hands and will develop an instant dislike and dash off. Sometimes it is just easier to do it quickly and leave it there.
6Make sure the collar isn't too tight or too loose. You should be able to fit two fingers comfortably under the collar.
7Give cuddles or petting after. If your cat doesn't mind some further handling, a cuddle or a pat would be a nice way of letting your cat or kitten know that all is well again. Food or treats can make them forget about the collar, too.Ad
Are you an expert on oral health?
If so, share what you know about how to remove tonsil stones at home.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
We are a bit smarter today because of you.
- Cats are likely to be more resistant than kittens over the long-term. While a kitten will squirm a lot, it is more receptive to change than an older cat. Don't even try with a very old cat; resistance will be maintained continuously.
- Give cat treats at the same time as putting on the collar. They may act as a distraction and will certainly be well received.
- If your cat allows you to put the collar on, but then is able to take it off at will, you may need to resort to using a harness-type breakaway collar. These can be found at most pet stores.
- Make sure it's a break away collar; if it isn't, your cat or kitten could hang herself/himself by getting caught on something with the collar.
Things You'll Need
- A cat
- Break away cat collar
- Persistence and patience
- Treats

Derek Jeter's 3,000 Hottest Girlfriends
Okay, there aren't quite 3,000 — but Mr. November has dated an impressive number of the world's most beautiful women. Just take a look.
By ModernMan Editors
Derek Jeter is about to reach one of baseball's great milestones: 3,000 hits. He'll have done it faster than all but four players in history. He'll be one of only a handful to have done it as a shortstop. And he'll be the greatest cocksman to have ever done it, having made a shocking number of the hottest women in the world his girlfriend.
To honor Jeter's historic accomplishment — and to celebrate his 3,000th hit — we've rounded up photos of those hot girlfriends. What can we say? We're huge baseball fans.

Hey Gabblers!
Are you missing the men of Grey's as much as we are? Well, you're in luck! Jason George (Aka Ben Warren) will be back on your screens tonight, with ABC's new show 'Mistresses'! Jason sat down with TVFanatic to share some scoop on his new role!
What attracted you to Mistresses… besides the incredibly hot Alyssa Milano who plays Savannah 'Savi' Davis?
Yeah, she was definitely the big perk in the gig. She is just really fantastic people. Ridiculously gorgeous and crazy smart. The thing for me was, I was not familiar with the BBC series but I liked the premise. I liked the idea of looking at infidelity from all different angles. You've got Yunjin Kim who plays Karen and has been a mistress for the last little bit. Rochelle Aytes character (April) is dealing with the fall out of her husband having had a mistress. Then you've got Alyssa right in the middle. We see her collide in this moment with Dom, my character and this thing happens that night and you've got a decision to make. Looking at the consequences that her friends have had to deal with from either side. Do I want this thing to continue further as an affair or do I want it to be done and it's a mistake? Not helping things is that she has this little sister who is a free spirit who you know, if she wants you she's going to have you. She's not attached to anybody. She doesn't care. Your vows are your problem is Jes Macallan's character (Josslyn) kind of attitude.
Does this show follow the UK version or does it go off on its own path?
It goes on its own path. I think there are going to be a lot of key elements for the people who have seen the BBC one. They'll definitely check it out and see some of the familiarity but it's a new story at the end of the day. You start in the same room but then it starts hooking some right turns that you didn't see in the BBC version.
Dominic is definitely a charmer. What can you tell us about him?
Dominic, he's that guy. He's driven. He's passionate about stuff. He's professional at his work and he's a ridiculous flirt. That's generally how he relates to women but there's real substance underneath that. His thing is, Savannah is his friend. She also happens to be his work wife. They are a perfect team at work. They get on great. They both push each other to be the best they can be in going further up the ladder and they get on great. So in the back of his mind…if she weren't married but she is so we'll just work and give her a hard time and have fun with it, knowing that it's never going to happen. Until it does. And then things get weird for him. You push on a door long enough and expect it to be locked and then one day it opens up and you fall flat on your face and you have to figure out what is this new sensation. Because you never really allowed yourself to really think about it that much.
Click here for the rest of Jason's interview.
xoxo LullyGuhl
I didn't tune in last night, but I will check it out on Hulu or On Demand. Love love love Jason George. He's such a good actor and so ridiculously handsome.

In my Spanish class today, this girl was like NEXT CLASS IS MY LAST CLASS IN UNIVERSITY EVERRRRR ZOMG. Then my prof was all IT'S ALSO STEPHANIE'S LAST CLASS FOR HER GRAD PROGRAM (because we are BFFs and she has my life memorized or something). So for some reason this undergrad chiquitita thinks we're #1 bros, and wound up to give me an epic high five. Except she way overshot and slapped me in the face.
So symbolic, it hurts. Slapped in the face by life and also overexuberant undergrads.

IDC came out with their Q1 2013 worldwide server market revenue report on May 29, 2013 which shows blade server revenues decreased 2.9% year over year to $1.9 billion while accounting for 17.7% of all server revenues reported. According to the report, this is the fifth time in the previous six quarters that the server market has experienced a year-over-year decline in worldwide revenue. Server unit shipments decreased 3.9% year over year in 1Q13 to 1.9 million units as consolidation continued to be a strategic focus for many large and small customers around the globe.
For the first time in the history of the Worldwide Server Tracker, IDC identifies two types of modular form factors: blade servers and density optimized servers. In terms of market share, HP maintained the number 1 spot in the blade server market in 1Q13 with 44.6% revenue share; while Cisco climbed up to share the second place position with IBM at 17.6% and 17.2% revenue share, respectively. Dell maintained the fourth spot with 9.1% revenue share.
In comparison, density optimized servers, experienced very strong demand in 1Q13 with revenues growing 54.8% year over year in 1Q13 to $753 million. In 1Q13, unit shipments of density optimized servers increased 39.3% to just under 215,000 servers. Density optimized servers now represent 6.9% of all server revenue and 11.2% of all server shipments. According to IDC, Dell maintained the number 1 spot in the Density Optimized segment in 1Q13 with 47.3% revenue share.
"Cloud computing is increasingly being utilized as a method to transform the delivery of IT services. IDC finds customers are leveraging both internal private and external public cloud services," said Jed Scaramella, research manager, Enterprise Servers. "The modular servers that are the building blocks for clouds (blades for private, density optimized for public) outperformed the market and continue to account for a higher share of market revenue."

@34 - Lost
Your point is made, but it's missing the larger picture. A 60 running a lowbie through Scarlet Monstary is different from hacking in a very basic sense - they are still "navigating" the game as designed. Perhaps not as INTENDED, but as designed, yes. They are fighting and killing the mobs and following the scripted events in the same way. In fact they are not skipping content at all, merely overpowering it. This guild was actually changing the game design.
"The hacks that truly bother me are..."
This is the other issue - you are making a distinction between hacks that hurt people and hacks that don't. Fact is, while you and I can do that based on our armchair opinions, Blizzard has it a lot tougher. They can't play the "this hack is okay but that hack isn't" game, it's just not manageable. Certainly not from a legal or technical standpoint. They have to call cheating cheating in whatever form they find it, or they may open loopholes for other cheats.
I have to wonder though.. do you really not get it? You and Prauche are entitled to your opinions, sure, and I respect them. But you cannot do the same in return? You seriously don't understand why people would get upset about cheating?
I think it's a pretty basic impulse that just about everyone undertands. You follow the rules. Someone else doesn't. They get caught. You... well, you feel good.
There is a reward for not cheating. The reward for us is that we get to keep playing. The punishment for them is.. they don't get to see TBC. And don't try and tell me they didn't want to see it. We all love this game - and they did too, otherwise they wouldn't have been playing. And TCB has been the only thing on anyones mind for months.
An aside - Can you imagine being one of the people on that fateful raid who didn't particularly want to be there or really didn't want to use the cheat? C'mon, I can't imagine EVERYONE on the raid was all amped up about using the hack. There had to be someone there who didn't want to but just kinda went along with it because they didn't want to rock the boat - then suddenly being perma-banned for it? I'd be so angry it's unbelievable.
But anyhow.
The poster for Overrated said they had basically "Won the game". Well, only for two months or so. After that, TBC will be out and hey will be a sad, discredited memory. And that's to the people that knew them. To the rest of us who'd never heard of them before this they'll be even less than that.
Do some people go overboard a bit against them? Maybe so, I can't disagree. But y'know something? When you resist the urge to cheat and play honestly, you've earned a little credit over those who don't. It's just a fact.
I just think it's a little funny that, when it comes to WoW, there are bragging rights for HK's, and bragging rights for gear. Bragging rights for server firsts, world firsts, PvP and just about anything else in the game.
But there are no bragging rights for playing honestly, or honorably. Two of the most important things in any other game, as far as I'm concerned. Go figure.
Is there any wonder why those that don't cheat feel a little righteous when someone who cheats is banned? I'm not neccessarily saying its right, but it sure as hell makes sense.
Listen, I'm sure that Overrated were fine players, even without the cheating. I'm not going to take that away from them, and I am not going to demonize them. But I'm sure not going to cut them any slack either.
Cheating is not about the game you cheated in, and it's not even so much about what the cheat was. It is about how you react to being caught that says the most about you. When someone is caught cheating and they are borderline belligerent about it? When their parting statement essentially says "I'd do it all over again"? Well, no one is going to be very forgiving, naturally. I think if they hadn't been as "yeah, I cheated, who cares?" about it, people would have been inclined to chill.

"In New York it becomes easy to assume that the city's most alluring women have flown in from Paris or Milan. But they're just a minority. A much larger covey hails from the stalwart states that begin with the letter I—like Iowa and Indiana and Illinois. Bred with just the right amount of fresh air, roughhousing, and ignorance, these primitive blondes set out from the cornfields looking like starlight with limbs. Every morning in early spring one of them skips off her porch with a sandwich wrapped in cellophane ready to flag down the first Greyhound headed to Manhattan—this city where all things beautiful are welcomed and measured and, if not immediately adopted, then at least tried on for size."

The first time I heard about Goodloe Byron was on the morning of the JFK 50-mile run, four years ago. Somebody said there was a congressman entered. That surprised me a little, since I always thought congressmen were people who went everywhere in chauffeured limousines-people who probably wouldn't deign to go 50 yards on foot if they didn't have to, say nothing of 50 miles. Then I thought maybe the guy was doing it as a political stunt - until I remembered that people who do stunts for publicity need crowds, and in the JFK there are no crowds. The only spectators are little clusters of friends and families who appear at infrequent checkpoints with their thermos bottles of coffee and hot soup. The only possible reason for running this thing is that you are … a runner.
As I learned later. U.S. Representative Goodloe Byron was a runner - and a good one. Not fast, but enduring. He had run the JFK before, and it was no stunt. There were no PR people with him in this quiet Maryland countryside - just members of his family. His wife, Beverely, always manned the Weverton Cliffs checkpoint, where the runners come tumbling down a steep, wooded mountainside at 16 miles. His son, Kim, usually ran in the race with his father (Kim has completed more JFKs-10- than anyone else in the 16-year history of the event.)
The first 16 miles of the JFK climbs over some of Maryland's most rugged terrain, following the Appalachian Trail from South Mountain near Boonsboro to the Potomac River below Weverton Cliffs. The last 8 miles follows a rolling country road past corn fields and orchards to its final stopping point at St. James School. But it's the 26 miles in between, on the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal Towpath-the "Middle Marathon"-which is the true heart of the JFK.
The towpath was originally built to accommodate mules, but it looks as thought it was made just for runners. A 20-foot wide turf dike between the Potomac River and the C&O Canal, it has a smooth, springy surface that provides welcome relief to the sore shins and tendons of two-legged non-barge pullers that have been trained on city concrete and pavement. Giant sycamore trees stand beside the path, providing cool shade in the summer, then dropping their leaves to reveal a shimmering view of the river in the winter. In the early spring, the path is filled with the aroma of honeysuckle, and small frogs hop off the grass into the canal as you approach.

Favorite Find Friday: Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition 3-Minute Undo Dryness Reversal Treatment
Written on August 2, 2013 at 9:00 am , by Fitness Magazine
My hair and I have been through a lot together. I've been a blonde, brunette and redhead, and I have a tendency to be little too friendly with my hot tools. These styling faux pas have left my strands feeling dry, weak and in need of some serious T.L.C. Thankfully in recent years I've learned my lesson, steered clear of anything that could further damage my locks and treated my tresses to a hair indulgence once a week. Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition 3-Minute Undo Dryness Reversal Treatment ($6, drugstores) is my current go-to strand saver. Loaded with ultra-nourishing avocado, olive and almond oils, this quick fix instantly reverses signs of dryness and leaves my hair feeling super soft. It contains teeny-tiny crushed apricot kernels that smooth hair cuticles for amped-up shine and minimal frizz. After shampooing, I apply a layer of this starting mid-shaft all the way to my ends, comb through with a wide-tooth comb, clip my hair up off my neck (did you know the built-up oils from your hair products can cause back and chest breakouts?), wait three minutes, rinse and violà! – instantly refreshed, healthy hair.

Favorite Find Friday: Matrix Biolage ExquisiteOil Shampoo and Conditioner
Written on November 30, 2012 at 4:51 pm , by Molly Ritterbeck
I'm a big fan of Matrix hair products (they smell fresh but subtle!) and usually rely on their Biolage Volumathérapie shampoo and conditioner ($15, $16, biolage.com for salons) to give my long hair extra lift. But I also believe in switching up your shampoo and conditioner every now and then, so when mine recently ran low, I decided to try one of Matrix's latest formulas, Biolage ExquisiteOil Micro-Oil Shampoo and Oil Crème Conditioner ($17, $18, biolage.com for salons). Both contain moringa oil, which is packed with antioxidants to protect hair from damage and fatty acids to coat each strand with moisture. My hair looks and feels shiny and silky—and surprisingly, the oils didn't weigh it down. Bottom line: I can't stop touching it!

Celeb Hairstyling With Charles Baker Strahan and Herbal Essences
Written on August 29, 2011 at 10:04 am , by Fitness Magazine
We had the pleasure of meeting with celebrity hairstylist Charles Baker Strahan at Arte Salon in New York City last week to preview the new Herbal Essences Touchably Smooth Shampoo & Conditioner. The collection is made to tame flyaways by adding softness to straight or curly hair. We put the humidity protectant that's formulated into the products to the test after our wash and style. Even when we sat outside and surrendered to the steamy New York air, sun and afternoon breeze, our silky, shiny hairstyle stood up. See the proof, below (that's Charles on the left)!
He also gave us a few pointers for styling our hair during any season:
If your flyaways continue to rise at the top of your hairline: Spray hairspray onto a makeup or small hairbrush and sweep it over the errant strands. This will ease frizz without flattening your styled hair.
If you want to add volume to flat, straight or curly hair: Use Velcro rollers along the crown of your head. This forces the hair to change directions, which will lend bounce and movement.
For a fast freshen-up: Tease hair starting at the crown and brushing in the opposite direction—the crown is where you can create the most volume.

Favorite Find Friday: Smooth 'n Shine Therapy Leave-In Treatment Conditioner
Written on February 18, 2011 at 11:23 am , by April Franzino
It's been a tad too long since we've had a haircut, and our ends are showing it! In between appointments, we treat our overextended strands to Smooth 'n Shine Therapy Scalp & Breakage Miracle Leave-In Treatment Conditioner: Most days, it's the only product we leave in our hair. It nourishes and repairs with jojoba oil and wheat protein without feeling heavy or greasy. It's a bargain at $4—and the faint take-me-away coconut aroma doesn't hurt, either. What's your favorite leave-in hair product?

NYU Wagner and UCLA Present: The Social Justice Initiatives in Public Service Graduate Programs
Part I: Navigating Complex Conversations in the Era of Obama:
New Ways to Address Race and Inequality in Policy and Practice
March 20, 2009 and March 24, 2009
Two programs, one in Los Angeles followed by one in New York, brought together students, faculty, administrators, alumni, and community leaders to engage in day-long dialogues aimed at creating a space and a framework for conversations of sensitive social justice issues in the context of graduate education in public affairs, public policy, and public service. Graduate schools that serve public professions encourage research and teaching that calls attention to populations that are vulnerable, underrepresented, urban, and comprised of immigrants. Many of our schools seek to provide intellectual space for faculty and students to engage in productive conversations about ethnicity, gender, LGBT issues, human rights, and inequality. However, too many students report that our schools need to do more, even in the era of Obama, to prepare them with the necessary fluency on issues of race and inequality vital for their real world work on policy issues that affect these communities. These dialogues were part of an ongoing effort in our two schools to address this need.
Part II: Continuing the Conversation
March 11, 2011 at NYU Wagner and March 28, 2011 at UCLA
NYU Wagner and the UCLA School of Public Affairs continued our collective work on the Social Justice Initiative in Public Service Graduate Programs. Through regional dialogues on the East and West Coasts, we sought to develop an approach that helps students at schools like ours – the future leaders of public service in local, national and international contexts – understand and diminish the systemic, institutional and structural barriers to equality and equity in the U.S. and globally. We challenged ourselves and all the participants to continue this conversation far beyond the two days of the dialogues.
Wagner would like to thank the Ford Foundation for its generous support of this project.
For more information please contact Tracey Gardner - email@example.com.
NASPAA Social Justice Curriculum Award
The Network of Schools of Public Policy, Affairs, and Administration (NASPAA) Social Justice Curriculum Award, co‐sponsored by NYU Wagner and UCLA Luskin, is designed to promote the incorporation of a social justice lens in the core curriculum of NASPAA schools. This $1,000 award is given to a faculty member or faculty team that has developed a required core course that meets this objective.
Leadership, Diversity & Inclusion: Insights from Scholarship
By Sonia M. Ospina, Waad El Hadidy and Grisel Caicedo with Amanda Jones, April 2011
In a report released in partnership with National Urban Fellows, RCLA scholars examine recent research on leadership and diversity, with a focus on public service. They find that scholars are linking diversity with adaptability, arguing that learning how to build organizations that effectively leverage racial diversity can foster the leadership capacity to adapt to other kinds of diversity and thrive in an increasingly complex environment. Yet there is less agreement in the literature on just how to do that. Limited empirical research in the public service field has resulted in a dearth of evidence for what works, even two decades after the diversity agenda has become a focus for public service organizations.
Advancing Diversity and Inclusion in Public Service: A Review of Leadership Development Programs in the US
By Sonia M. Ospina, Waad El Hadidy and Grisel Caicedo with Amanda Jones, April 2011
One in three Americans are people of color, yet minorities occupy just one in six leadership positions in state and federal government, nonprofits and foundations. This RCLA report offers a listing of leadership development programs at the regional and national levels that are dedicated to supporting leaders of color, committed to diversity and open to all public service leaders, or that focus on diversity management.
Advancing Diversity and Inclusion in Public Service: A Guide to Leading Change
By the Research Center for Leadership in Action and National Urban Fellows, June 2011
While diversity has increased in the public service workforce, it is still largely lacking at senior levels. This guide from RCLA and National Urban Fellows shares practical steps for individuals and organizations to foster inclusion. The report highlights specific elements for developing an inclusive organization, questions to consider in tracking progress and NUF's new Inclusive Leadership Model.

"Hand aufs Herz" recap: Peanut Butter and Jelly
The thing they figure out together at school the next day is that they can't keep their hands off each other.
There's a song playing talking about how you can be the peanut butter to my jelly while they touch each other covertly and stare at each other longingly and pretty soon, Emma is dragging Jenny into the STAG room for some full-on making out.
She pushes Jenny against the wall and between their frantic kisses they talk about how they're never going to stop kissing. "Not even if I wear those sparkly pink Traveling Pants leggings I wore that one time when we took over the school? Or my bullet earrings?" No, not even then. In the middle of their mad pash, Bodo busts in, and I don't know why, but this screencap is the sexiest thing I've ever seen. After I capped it, I just sort of stared at it for half an hour humming about peanut butter and jelly.
Emma's like, "Bodo, Jenny. Jenny, Bodo." Jenny goes, "Hi, Bodo." It's amazing. Emma looks like her head is going to explode and Jenny is still smirking, leaning against the wall trying to catch her breath.
Emma tries to weave a yarn about how they were "practicing" for a "play." And Bodo's like, "Yeah? Looks like maybe this isn't the first time you've 'rehearsed' it." Jenny goes, "Guess we're pretty good." And her voice is, like, two levels huskier than normal. I can't deal with it.
Bodo agrees to keep schtum about the whole thing. Emma's like, "Jenny can be the peanut butter to my jelly. She can be the butterflies I feel in my belly. She can be my captain, I can be her first mate. She can be the chills that I feel on our first date. And you, Bodo, can be the first boy I punch in the nuts if you don't GET OUT OF HERE so I can make out with my girlfriend some more."
Jenny smiles her dimpled smile. Emma scowls her randy scowl. And everywhere around the world, every lesbian melts in a puddle of swoon.

The Dress I have been looking at dresses on David's Bridal's website and last weekend I tried on two of my top pictures but were over my budget. I began looking again and this dress caught my eye. I went back to David's Bridal this weekend. This is the first dress I tried on and I was debating between this and another one. After adding a sparkle belt I knew this was the one. I also love how it fits and looks on me. I can't wait to wear it for my upcoming wedding! April 20, 2014
my wedding dress ! Loved this dress , was amazing to try on. And fit me excellent. Looked amazing and was very comfortable as well ! Has a two tone look with the champagne & white tulle on top. Was just amazing ! April 7, 2014
The Number One Pick I was at DB for my appointment and immediately getting there they had me try on a multitude of dresses that I had picked. They were all pretty, but I still was still not wowed. I am a 5'4" with close to plus sized body. As soon as I put this dress on I knew it was the right dress. I was on a budget of 300, but the extra 150 was totally worth it. It was really light weight compared to most of the satin dresses I saw and it was not super girly. This is definitely a wonderful dress! April 5, 2014
So In Love When I first tried on wedding gowns, I wasn't really sure what I wanted. I tried on a few at DB and decided to come back a few days later. This was one of the ones I tried on on my first go, and I could not stop thinking about it. I tried on a few other styles on my second visit, but saved this one for last. My sister gasped, and my sister-in-law started to cry. This dress took their breath away! It's so understated and lovely, it really lets my beauty shine through without being too flashy. Best of all, it's so lightweight and comfortable, that it is a perfect fit for my mid-July wedding. I would definitely recommend this dress! March 24, 2014

Effective protection planning begins with active community participation and public involvement. Public participation has been important to the overall success of Colorado¿s Source Water Assessment and Protection (SWAP) project. Source water protection was founded on the concept that informed citizens, equipped with fundamental knowledge about their drinking water source and the threats to it, will be the most effective advocates for protecting this valuable resource. Community members and public water systems interested in developing source water protection plans will have access to technical and financial support by the Water Quality Control Division (Division).
The state recommends that the public water supplier or any other capable local interest group take the lead in organizing public participation in the local source water protection planning effort. Effective public participation requires a well-organized effort to raise public awareness, to identify groups and individuals interested in helping, and to define and implement the necessary planning tasks. Source water protection planning efforts should take a teamwork approach and involve as much public participation as possible. The Division feels that involvement from as many interested stakeholders and the public as possible will yield a more comprehensive protection plan in addition to having more support.
Colorado successfully used voluntary citizen advisory groups in the development of both the wellhead protection and source water assessment and protection program plans. The Division is merging two drinking water protection programs, namely the wellhead protection program and the SWAP program. The merging of these two programs will result in a protection planning project plan called the Integrated Source Water Assessment and Protection (ISWAP) project plan. A citizen advisory group, consisting of a diverse selection of the public, will be involved in the development of this merged project plan incorporating wellhead and source water assessment protection. The following interest groups have been identified to serve on the citizens advisory group: Non Profit Planning/Technical Assistance Organization Member, American Planning Association Staff, Public Water Providers, Colorado Foundation of Water Education Staff, Land Use Decision Makers, Federal Land Management Personnel (BLM/USFS), Advocate Group, Technical Expert, Public Health Official, Colorado Watershed Assembly Staff, Scientist, Educator, Developers/Smart Growth Advocate, Colorado Water Utility Council.
The Division is committed to developing an effective and statewide protection planning strategy and project plan to assist communities and drinking water providers protect raw water quality in the state. The ISWAP, when completed and reviewed by the Division and the CAG, will outline the protection planning phase and include: project goals and objectives, public participation, the Division¿s technical support role, protection planning and process steps, the source water protection planning template, source water protection support, outreach and education activities, and the technical and financial support for the protection planning project.
Interested public water systems and community members can initiate the protection planning process by: involving the local community and interested stakeholders in public meetings, reviewing and understanding the potential threats to their water system (ie: source water assessment report), verifying their contaminant inventory, identifying potential ¿best management practices¿ to minimize potential threats, completing the source water protection planning template and implementing the necessary management practices to protect their drinking water supply.

I joke a lot about how I was moody and worried when I was pregnant, but it's true that I was (just ask my partner.) Still, I had an uncomplicated pregnancy and I had many, many easy and very happy days, too -- days when I felt grateful and generous towards the world in general.
I just read that the actress Rachel Griffiths, of "Brothers & Sisters" (which, as a total aside, I love), says that pregnancy has made her "nicer." She's preggers with her third kid (big sibs are Banjo and Adelaide) and apparently pregnancy has transformed her entire personality -- she's so much nicer, some members of the cast are begging her not to have the baby!
Hhmmm. What would you say about yourself?
Question: Has pregnancy made you nicer?
Yes! Must be the hormones working in a positive way.
No! I'm cranky, so stop asking me questions.
Depends on the day, honey.

It definitely depends on the day.. Like I was a total witch to my DH this morning because Becka slept like crap and I slept terribly too. It was bad.
I am very at peace a lot though. I love being pregnant, so I think I am definitely a bit nicer. :)
it just depends for me like when my BIL or MIL are around or call I get uber mad and it messes up my whole day other than that i wake up in a happy-go-lucky mood and just stay that way for most of the day
Yes..gotta love the "love" hormones!
HAHAHAH... oh... *clears throat*
No, pregnancy is NOT making me nicer.
Hubby says that I'm nicer when I'm pregnant or on BC. I don't see any differnce though.
I was nice before I was pregnant so I don't know any other way to be although I do think people are stupid more offten now that I am preggo but I never say anything
I'm in a little too much pain to be nice right now, let alone nicer.
I hated my SO for about 95% of my pregnancy. He was even deployed & I told him I never wanted to see him again. I started being nice about 2 weeks before I gave birth & then after Elijah came out I loved him again & started being way nice! I still feel bad every day for the way that I treated him while pregnant.
My hubby always told me I was SOOOO much nicer when I was pregnant. I never knew I was that bad before...lol.

Oct. 2 (Bloomberg) -- Treasuries gained, pushing 10-year note yields toward a seven-week low, after a report by ADP Research Institute showed companies in the U.S. added fewer jobs than forecast in September, adding to demand for refuge.
Bonds advanced earlier as the partial shutdown of the U.S. government showed no signs of ending quickly. The first day ended with no talks scheduled between the White House and Congress, making it more likely the standoff will merge with a debate over raising the federal debt ceiling. Treasury Secretary Jacob J. Lew said the U.S. has begun using the last measures available to avoid breaching the limit.
"This number came in a bit below expectations, which is precipitating a bit of a rally in Treasuries," said Christopher Sullivan, who oversees $2.2 billion as chief investment officer at United Nations Federal Credit Union in New York. "Employment growth has been deteriorating a bit, and this is another confirmation of that idea."
The benchmark 10-year yield fell two basis points, or 0.02 percentage point, to 2.63 percent at 9:26 a.m. New York time, according to Bloomberg Bond Trader prices. The price of the 2.5 percent note due in August 2023 rose 6/32, or $1.88 per $1,000 face amount, to 98 29/32. The yield dropped to as low as 2.60 percent after falling on Sept. 30 to 2.59 percent, the least since Aug. 12.
Bill Rates
Rates on Treasury bills that mature Oct. 24 decreased to 0.055 percent today, from 0.075 percent yesterday and negative 0.01 on Sept. 27. Two years ago, one-month bills climbed to a 29-month high of 0.18 percent as the Aug. 2, 2011, deadline set by Treasury to avoid a default approached.
Three-month Treasury bill rates fell to 0.0051 percent from 0.0152 percent yesterday. They reached negative 0.0101 percent on Sept. 27, the lowest level this year. The 2013 average is 0.048 percent.
Treasury price swings as measured by the Merrill Lynch Option Volatility Estimate Index jumped 9 percent yesterday, the biggest increase since Aug. 16. The gauge advanced for a fifth day, the longest run of increases in four weeks. The index was at 87.37, versus the average of 69.07 for the past year.
U.S. government securities lost 2.5 percent this year through yesterday, according to the Bloomberg U.S. Treasury Bond Index, reflecting speculation the Federal Reserve is planning to reduce its $85 billion in monthly bond purchases as the world's biggest economy improves.
Treasuries fell yesterday, with 10-year yields increasing four basis points to 2.65 percent, on speculation the government shutdown might end soon enough for lawmakers to work on extending the federal debt limit.
