There is no such thing as a young wizard.
"Life is but a thin candle," was among the first lessons Thalen taught us. "If you aren't careful it can melt away before you know it." I listened eagerly then, having finally come of age to study the arcane arts. I was intimidated by what lay ahead and excited about being lectured by Thalen himself.
"We do not teach magic to young people," said Thalen, "because most of them lack the maturity to use it wisely. This sort of patience cannot be learned; it is acquired only with natural age. That's why you had to wait until you turned thirty to begin your studies." Rumor had it that Thalen himself broke this law and learned his magic as a young man. There are many such rumors of Thalen and Gessa, the best among us.
They did not train at the hall. They arrived already masters of sorcery, crackling with power, and madly in love with each other. Thalen and Gessa were the stuff of legends. There was no challenge they wouldn't undertake together, no spell they couldn't cast. They healed the sick and won battles with an easy grace, and always together. They gave generously of their magic for the benefit of others, and they aged so very quickly. By the time their bodies turned sixty, Thalen and Gessa retired from active spellcasting.
After two years of study, those of us who persevered were aging men and women in our mid-forties. You can't learn magic without practicing it, and that takes a toll. To instantly mend a broken leg steals a week of your life. To break a drought and summon rain may cost you a couple of months. You can kill a man with a glance, but you will instantly age a decade. Anything is possible; the more powerful your magic, the higher its price.
Today some of my former classmates appeared old and wizened but others remained in their forties. A few chose a quick and easy path – trade a decade for a trove of treasure. Is it so different from toiling much of your life away as a farmer or craftsman? Precious few were idealistic enough to use their powers for the benefit of others, to give of themselves the way Thalen and Gessa have done. I harbored my abilities like a miser with a fistful of copper. A mere threat of magic could serve nearly as well as the real thing.
In their twilight years Thalen and Gessa became convinced that magic could be tamed. They dreamt of casting spells without draining one's life force. Anyone else suggesting this would be laughed out of the hall – but these two had earned our admiration, and their theories were treated with respect even if they never seemed to yield any results. They tried to cheat the universe of the price it demanded for miracles, until Gessa ran out of time.
Anything is possible with magic, even rejuvenating a person. Thalen, who would have gladly sacrificed anything for Gessa, watched her body succumb to old age. He didn't have enough magic, enough years of his life left to help her. As she wasted away, Thalen worked feverishly to master the new form of spellcasting. Then she slipped into a coma, her final hours upon her.
Thalen announced that he would make his attempt. He would combine old and new magic to bring his lover back from the brink. He invited his favorite students to observe and study his new methods, to preserve the new magic after he was gone. We didn't have much faith in his mad plan but came anyway, and made preparations of our own. We came to say goodbye to the greatest of us all, for no matter the outcome for Gessa, one thing was certain – Thalen would not survive his incantation.
One hundred wizards filled the hall. I watched Thalen whisper a spell over Gessa, whose frail body lay still on the bed in the center. Her ragged breathing was loud enough to be heard from where I stood. Thalen's chant grew until he was shouting the words of power, shedding weeks and months of his life with a casual disdain of a youngster. The air sizzled with energy. Thalen gave everything he had left, until he collapsed onto the ground, barely more than a skeleton. The last thing he saw as he died was a forty-year-old Gessa, stirring under the blankets, her breath no longer belabored by age.
I looked around at the faces of my fellow wizards. Their eyes were moist with grief and brows sweating from their own arcane efforts. The math of a rejuvenation spell is brutal. Three years will buy you one, and that is a poor bargain. Thalen died happy, thinking his last incantation proof that he had discovered a way around paying this price. Except that he hadn't.
One hundred friends and students, volunteers all, each gave a year of our own lives to Gessa. Thirty three years shed from her body's age in moments. A gift we gave gladly, even if Thalen would have never knowingly accepted it of us.
Gessa will wake soon. She will never know of our contribution. She will believe that Thalen's incantation had worked, and will continue their research. If anyone besides Thalen is capable of creating an entirely new way to do magic, it is Gessa. One day she might even succeed, and everything will be different.
Until then, there will be no such thing as a young wizard.

Doesn't Cool well
I am very unhappy with this unit. It does not cool well at all! The intake hose is too close to the exhaust hose which blows out out extremely hot air. I plugged the intake slot in the plastic and just left the hose off of the intake so that it was just pulling in the room air to cool. This seemed... Read full review »
Defective-poor customer service
I bought this from Costco's website since I do not live near a
Costco, so returning it is a lot of trouble. When I first bought this the cooling function, heat, & fan worked, but nothing else did. Since Windchaser's customer service phone number is long distance, I emailed their customer... Read full review »
You can guess the quality of the product from its user guide. Starts from unclear (in fact wrong) installation procedure.
Considering the amount of weight and sound it makes, it does not cool that effectively. Built quality is poor, cheaper plastic. Read full review »
As indicated by the previous reviewer, very disappointing performance. Cooling is just ok in my room (16x16 =256 sf), but the dehumidifier that functions automatically when cooling, fills up the internal holding tank at least once a day(running the unit about 4-5 hrs per day). I live in San Diego... Read full review »
terrible cooling, expensive
We bought this for an upstairs room. It took 2 hours to decrease the temp from 90 to 85 in a 15x12 room, which should be no problem for a 12K BTU unit. All night long operation, which is loud for a bedroom, it only managed to cool the room to 78, 10 degrees warmer than the outside temp that night!... Read full review »

Proposition 31 establishes a two-year state budget, and changes certain fiscal responsibilities of the Governor and the Legislature. State and local budgeting and oversight procedures would be changed. Local governments that create plans to coordinate services would receive funding from the state and could develop their own procedures for administering state programs.
Official Election Results:
Yes: 4,642,088 [39.5%]
No: 7,115,166 [60.5%]
Pro / Con
Proponents of Prop. 31 claim that the measure forces state politicians to justify any new spending projects with a transparent finance source. They also claim the measure will provide voters and taxpayers with the chance to review budgets before they're passed and impose constraints on new government spending. Proponents also say that the measure will give local governments much needed control over their own budgets and demand accountability from them.
Yes on Proposition 31 [Website archived in Internet Archive]
Opponents believe that Prop. 31 will make the government less effective and more cumbersome in operation. They believe that it will allow politicians to alter or override laws which currently provide much needed air quality and public health protections. They also claim that Prop. 31 will make it nearly impossible to increase funding to education.
No on 31 [Website archived in Internet Archive]
California Business Roundtable / Pepperdine University School of Public Policy Initiative Survey Series, Oct. 30, 2012
PPIC Statewide Survey: Californians and their Government, October, 2012
"When read the ballot title and label, 24 percent of likely voters say they would vote yes, 48 percent would vote no, and 28 percent are undecided."
California Business Roundtable / Pepperdine University School of Public Policy Initiative Survey Series, Oct. 11, 2012
Field Poll Release #2428, September 25, 2012
"Negative voter reaction to Proposition 31, the state budget reform initiative".
PPIC Statewide Survey: Californians and their Government, September, 2012
"When read the Proposition 31 ballot title and label, 25 percent of likely voters say they would vote yes, 42 percent would vote no, and 32 percent are undecided."
Under Proposition 31, local governments such as cities and school districts would be allowed to create plans for coordinating how public services are provided. The plans could detail the delivery of services in a range of areas including public health and safety, education, social services, and economic development. Prop. 31 requires that existing governing boards for the county, school district, or other local government approve the plans.
The measure would also allow local governments to change how state funded programs are administered. The Legislature or state department would have a chance to analyze and approve or reject alternate procedures. Local procedures would expire after four years unless renewed by the local government and approved by the Legislature or state department.
Proposition 31 would also allow the transfer of local property taxes. Current California law mandates how property taxes are divided among local governments within a county. Prop. 31 would give local governments total flexibility in deciding how to transfer property taxes. The governing boards of affected local governments would have to approve the change with a two-thirds vote.
Proposition 31 would place restrictions on the Legislature's ability to increase state costs or decrease state revenues, and when they can pass bills.
Certain bills which increase spending by more than $25 million, would need to be justified by the Legislature. They would be required to show how the spending increases would be paid for by spending reductions or revenue increases. Any bills which create new state programs or departments, expand current programs or departments, or create state-mandated local programs would trigger this requirement. Bills which are exempt from the requirement include bills that increase funding for a program or department which requires additional funding due to increases in workload or the cost of living; bills that grant one time spending on programs or departments; bills which restore funding to state programs reduced to assist in balancing the budget for any year after 2008-2009; and bills which increase the pay and/or compensation of state employees due to collective bargaining agreements.
The Legislature would also be required to show how any bills which decrease state taxes or other revenues by more than $25 million would be paid for with spending reductions or revenue increases.
Proposition 31 would also change when the Legislature can pass bills. Under the measure, the Legislature would be required to make bills and bill amendments available to the public for at least three days before voting to pass them. Bills which are responding to natural disaster or terrorist attack would be exempt from this requirement.
Current state law allows the Governor to declare a fiscal emergency if he or she concludes that the state is facing revenue shortfalls or spending overuns. Once the emergency is declared, the Governor is required to call the Legislature into special session and propose actions to address the situation. The Legislature has 45 days to respond.
Proposition 31 would permit the Governor to reduce general fund spending if the Legislature does not pass legislation to address a fiscal emergency within 45 days. The Governor would be constrained from reducing Constitutionally required spending or federal law spending involving pensions, education, and health and social service programs.
Proposition 31 would also require the Governor to submit a budget proposal every two years instead every year as is now mandated by state law. The Legislature's current requirement of a July 15 deadline would not be changed by Proposition 31.
Proposition 31 would also require the Legislature to use a specific part of its two-year session to review the activities of state and local programs. Current law allows the Legislature to review public programs at various times during the session. Proposition 31 would require the Legislature to set aside the beginning of July of the second year of the session for this review process to take place. During this period, the Legislature could not pass bills except those which would take effect immediately or override a governor's veto.
The measure also imposes requirements on state and local governments and how they evaluate the performance of their public programs. It would impose some requirements regarding how local governments evaluate new items in their budgets. Finally, local governments must review the effectiveness of public programs and explain how budgetary objectives are met for each program. Local governments must then report on their progress.

Thunderbolt motherboards on their way
Just 15 months after the technology first appeared in a commercial form, ASUS and MSI have finally announced the first PC motherboards that will ship with built in Thunderbolt ports.
Thunderbolt, if you're aware of it all, may sound like a tedious hard drive technology, but it's got an enormous amount of potential for PC gaming. With these two boards, we may finally be in the era of the modular PC – which doesn't have to be opened up for upgrades.
It means, potentially, external hard drives that are as quick as internal SSDs and plug in graphics cards that really work. Much as I like to tinker inside my PC's case, this is big.

Michael's ever-so present luck only seems to get better.
There seems to be a new addition to the town of Bigfork, MT — and that new addition is less than satisfactory, as far as Michael's concerned. With the presence of Leviathan in town, as well as many other monsters that Michael can't exactly seem to name, and with his Grace still woefully compromised, a mostly human Michael is struggling to stay alive. He still has thousands of years of Host training under his belt and a quick mind when it comes to battle (actually, that seems to be the only time he has a quick mind), neither of which help him when he stumbles upon his younger brother, Samandriel, attempting to ward off a growing number of the large beasts. A quick fight takes place between the two angels and the ancient monsters, wounding both Michael and Samandriel before Samandriel manages to teleport them to some rag-tag, abandoned barn near the outskirts of town. That's all well and fine and dandy, but not even Michael has a clue to what they should do if the Leviathan decide to come looking for them: as Samandriel's got a broken wing and one of them decided to take a nice, big chomp out of Michael's side. And while everybody knows that wounds do hurt, Michael will be the first to attest to the fact that they hurt a hell of a lot more when you're human. (see: gone fishing)
And if that weren't enough, his younger sister Anna is back in town — which makes for a bit of an awkward family reunion, seeming the last time he's seen her, he burnt her to a crisp. Literally. The bad blood continues to run strong between these two, with Anna completely done with the archangel's shit, and Michael, of course, equally as unimpressed with anything Anna says or does. ( x )
Michael runs into Lucifer again. The two squabble, per usual, before Michael decides that whatever he has to do at the church he works for is more important than quality time with his little brother, and he cuts the conversation short. Shocking, isn't it? ( x )
His wings flailed and floundered and hay was stuck to matted blood and oil slick. The younger Angel groaned and curled his wings around himself. Teleporting them here had taken a lot of strength, of which he didn't have much left. If it was only himself he had to carry, he would have been in better shape. But it seemed two had been a little too much.
Upon hearing Michael's voice, his wings snapped open and folded against his back before struggling to his feet. To his dismay, he noted that his left wing hung limply behind his back as he tried forlornly to stand to attention.
"Left wing sustained aggravated damage. I will heal but I doubt I will be able to use it again for sometime."
His very Grace trembled as he tried to hold the soldier's stance. Blood dripped down his side, the Weiner Hut uniform completely soaked red and inky black.
"Are you… Ok?"
"Of course. Fine, fine." He dismissed the question with a wave of his hand, wincing just the slightest bit. There was no mistake — he was wounded, though it didn't seem to be life-threatening. Not at the moment, anyway. He hoped that with the fluctuation of his Grace that it would heal itself, but that could be days from now. Weeks, even.
"But now the question is, where are all of these Leviathan coming from? I've sensed their presences for weeks now, but that's the first out and out attack I've experienced around here." With one hand protectively holding his side, the archangel made his way towards the barn door, opening it just the slightest bit, in case the Leviathan they were fighting earlier had followed them to their current location. He peered out through the crack between the door and the threshold, but saw nothing but the rain beating against the marshy ground, the dark-gray sky rumbling overhead. It seemed that they'd really gotten away from their foes for the time being. He wasn't sure if it were only a matter of time before they came looking for the two incapacitated angels.
"This place seems to be safe for now," he concluded, shutting the door again and making his way back over to Samandriel, his breath silent yet labored from the effort of doing so. Michael eased himself to a sitting position on one of the bales of hay, lips pursed into a tight line. "It may be a matter of time before they begin pursuing us."
"But it's good to see you again, brother." He attempted to offer the other a small smile. "Truly."
Mmmmmmm yeah… no…nah not gunna happen. You can leave though.
Guess we'll both just stand here, then, because I don't plan on going anywhere.
It must actually be physically painful for you to be so stupid…
If you believe me to be such an idiot, you're free to walk away at any time.
I'm not sure how it's possible but you actually made that sound boring… no wonder none of the other angels wanted to hang out with you. I think you need to get laid. i think it would get rid of a lot of that tension. Don't worry, there are girls… guys. . . out there who are totally into assholes. No pun intended.
I don't care what the other angels thought of me, either. It wasn't my job to make friends with everyone. I have no need for things such as 'getting laid'.

"That'd be a dream come true… that'd be killer. I think at the end of the day they probably don't trust me enough to put me in there with guys, considering I'm 'a dangerous guy to work with' and 'I haphazardly ended Bret Hart's career.' At the end of the day these people have to understand it's a violent deal, number one. Number two, accidents happen. And number three, that's why I work in Japan — they don't cry if you hit them …That's a joke."

the colour is catchy and lovely but at the same time it can be wore so casually as well.
slides onto the lips so softly and smoothly , lasts long enough.
the colour just does everything for me! i wear it nearly everyday lolol!
I'm finally reviewing this after my second tube of this color. For reference, I have medium to tan Asian skin (NC35-NC40, MUFE in #123 and use MAC skinfinish natural powder in Medium-Dark). This color just pops against my skin tone with out being clownish. I've always used pinkish colors but have been wanting a brighter color without the red tones in most other pinks. This one would be a blue-purple base and it just enhances the golden tones in my complexion. Since I also have darker pigmented lips, this doesn't show up as bright and vivid so it is easy for me to use as a casual color with out looking overly made up as well. If you have fairer skin, this may pop and work for you as a "brighter" color. I would categorize this in the mauve family so if you have my coloring but want something similar to this color but more tones down, you should try "saucy mauve" from L'Oreal. I also love that color for my slightly paler lipped look. I pair "Up the Amp" with a peachy pink cheek and shimmery copper or taupe eyes and it looks amazing. I can def picture this looking amazing on dark skin as well.

i like this lipstick and it comes up beautiful on my nc45 skin this lipstick was mosturising and lovely to wear as it is creamy and light its also can be worn after sheerly with a couple of dabs or with a couple coats it was fully opaque i also found that it comes out a different colors on different people
another wonderful lipstick mac!
I recently purchased this lipstick maily based on all the great reviews ive seen plus the colour looks rich. it is very creamy and stays on all day actually. well, i've used it a couple of times and i don't know what to say about this product.first time i applied it, i used a lip balm as a base and then applied the lipstick. the second time i used the lipstick alone without a balm. i wonder if i am doing something wrong/ im still trying to get used to the colour anyway, makes me feel old i think.
I now enjoy wearing this! Use it with a lip liner most of the time and it turns out perfect. Lovely shade, will definitely purchase again and again.
I was skeptical on getting this color but decided to go for it considering all the positive reviews!! I loveeeeeeeeee it...looks amazing with no eye makeup and with a smokey eye...Buy it you wont regret it :)

I love this color! It's creamy and slides on easy... lasts long too!
The MAC SA talked me into this color and after telling her that I gravitate towards pinks/nudes/mauves she suggested I step out of the box. It sounded great in the store and when I got in my car and looked in the mirror I was prepared to go right back and return it. I fought the return impulse and decided to wear it a few days in a row so I could get used to the color and i'm glad I did. Ends up I love this color and agree with another reviewer in that this is not an over the top bright pastel. It's a pinky purple (that matches NYX's purple rain lip liner perfectly) that is kind of subtle compared to Candy Yum Yum. I pair it with a simple eye and lightly flushed cheek (for reference NC30-NC35, black hair, brown eyes) and I love the way it looks. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a brighter spring/summer lip without the color being over the top bright!

I bought this lipstick on impulse and in the end I absolutely loved it! It is an amazing purple-pink vivid lipstick that looks perfect on brunettes with pale skin I think! However, it is more suitable to winter season. I wouldn't wear it in the summerime...

Love this! I think this is a very versatile colour. Comes out a different colour on than the packet but its still nice! My friend uses this, I borrowed it and we cant believe how different it looks on both of us. It seems to go with different skin and hair tones. Loved it so much went out and got my own and I use it all the time! I find it changes any outfit and I can wear it in the daytime or for a night out if applied thicker.

Men's Health
Addicted to Baseball
Sept. 4, 2000 -- According to Kevin Quirk, recovered "sportsaholic" and the author of the self-help paperback Not Now, Honey, I'm Watching the Game, my husband is addicted to baseball. I, in turn, am addicted to my husband, Ed. This means that five or six times a year I accompany him to the ballpark, though I care nothing about the San Francisco Giants and understand few subtleties of the game. I would love it if my husband were addicted to me rather than to Dusty Baker and his merry spitting men, and so I turned to Quirk's book for help. More accurately, I suppose, I turned to Quirk's book to make Ed feel bad about his passion for baseball, for I am a jealous and needy person. No doubt I suffer from some as-yet-unnamed personality syndrome that someone will one day write a book about, which Ed can then buy and use to make me feel bad, too.
The first thing I learned from Quirk's book is that as sports addicts go, Ed is hopelessly minor league. He qualifies by dint of a checklist on page 59, which is like one of those depression checklists psychologists dream up, where if you answer yes to three or more questions like "Have you ever sighed audibly?" they tell you that you may want to seek professional help. Even though Ed answered yes to five of the 20 questions, qualifying him as an addict "to some degree," he is nothing like the men Quirk describes.
Ed doesn't collect pennants and programs and display them in a sports memorabilia room. He didn't name his kids after players and dress them in tiny Giants uniforms when they were too young to protest. He doesn't paint his face in team colors or fax advice to the dugout. These are actual behaviors sports addicts admitted to in a survey conducted by Quirk. He was, for a time, as extreme as any of them. He once had a heated argument with his wife over his sports habit, all the while sneaking glances out the kitchen window and in through the living room window to keep up with the game. They divorced soon after.
The extreme sports fan strays from ordinary devotion to deeply irrational, compulsive behavior. In Troy, N.Y., there lives a man who will not eat during Dallas Cowboys football games because one day during a game, he got up to fix a snack and when he returned, the Cowboys had fallen behind and proceeded to lose. He blamed himself, as though the act of eating a sandwich could affect the actions and decisions of a group of men in tight pants and helmets 2,000 miles away.

Updated: December 1, 2012 4:54PM
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — Betty Anne Ward McCaskill, the mother of Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill and a political trailblazer in her own right, died Monday at her home in St. Louis after a long struggle with heart and kidney problems, the senator said.
The first-term Democratic senator, who is locked in a close re-election race with Republican Rep. Todd Akin, had canceled most of her campaign events starting last week to spend time with her 84-year-old mother. She said Saturday that her mother suffered from acute cardio-renal failure and had lost consciousness at several points in recent days.
"For some time, Mom's health has not been good, and our family takes comfort that she is now at rest," McCaskill said in a statement announcing her mother's death. "We were incredibly lucky to have a mother like her, a woman of great intellect and strength, who loved and nurtured, challenged and pushed, and was always there with wise counsel and great humor."
Long before her daughter entered Missouri politics, Betty Anne McCaskill had made her own mark in Democratic circles. McCaskill has recalled how her mother sent her children out on Halloween in 1960 with the door-to-door message: "Trick or treat and vote for JFK," referring to the Democratic presidential candidate, John F. Kennedy.
In 1970, she was appointed to the Missouri Commission on the Status of Women, which evaluated the opportunities for women in Missouri government, education and business. The next year, she became the first women elected to the Columbia, Mo., City Council. She also once served as president for the trustees of William Woods University in Fulton, her alma mater.
She ran unsuccessfully for the state House in 1978 against Republican Leroy Blunt, whose son Roy Blunt now serves as Missouri's other U.S. senator.
In addition to Claire McCaskill, Betty Anne McCaskill is survived by two other daughters, Anne Moroh and Lisa Finn; one son, Will McCaskill; six grandchildren; along with step-grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
A memorial service is scheduled for Sunday. AP

What mistake defines you?
Hi, I've launched a website recently (www.recycledmistakes.com) and I'm trying to see how people deal with their own mistakes.
I was wondering if have an idea of that thing you did (or didn't do) in your past that has lead to where you are in life now?
Did you learn anything important?
Topics: advice lessons learned life experience mistake
Debra Smith 200+

Jun 15 2012: A very good topic Ricardo,
According to me , I won't say I committed a mistake by not following my passion for music since my school days.
Now I am a software engineer (I was interested in programming but not passionate though) and in my 3 years of IT industry experience , I realized my hidden talents apart from music. I could counsel people, come up with solutions to a problem ,Spirituality, Psychology and Philosophy, entrepreneurship.
So some times mistakes are bound to happen , but thats what redefines you. If one does not make mistakes, there is hardly anything one learns. Mistakes are meant to make you stronger.
Mr KJun 14 2012: My mistake:
Believing that being an unspoken idealist makes me greater and more precious than the vulgarity of revealing with words what I am too afraid to say.
As a result, I am no longer that impulsive irreverent that quantified a day by its surprises, so I stand aside resigning myself.
In other words, my mistake is my reflection. I overthink things, and, though actions do mean more than words, when actions do not reach others, things need to be said, but I never get there.

Jun 12 2012: I expect that many of us have a certain mistake we seem to make repeatedly or a bad habit (rather than a single incident) that we don't abandon on a timely basis. Mine is sometimes giving a gambit longer than it deserves. Other times I am quick to size things up, so it isn't that I usually stick with something too long. Just sometimes. Verble below mentions the opposite problem, of not taking advantage of some opportunities out of fear. Still, I don't see the mistake as defining the person as much as that a person's personality may produce a tendency to certain kinds of mistakes.
Jun 15 2012: The first time someone asked me what I liked to be when I grew up I said: I wanna be a veterinarian. I must have been around 8. I liked playing with animals so the prospect of being around them for a living seemed like a nice idea.
In the mean time I had to finish my education. Primary school (4 years, 6-10) was easy, middle school (5 years, 10-15) was boring and high school (3 years, 15-18) was... well... lets say "interesting".
Don't know when but my plans for being a veterinarian got lost, and I tried to figure something out. It was a hard time since I didn't have a clue of what I wanted to do any more, but I decided Computer Engineering.
I finished high school with average grades, just high enough for me to get into the University/College I chose. I could have done a lot better in high school, even considering I didn't do my best even while in middle school. But my laziness took over and I only did as much as I needed to get into University.
Well I did get into the University I wanted, but in the end the course was a bit different from what I was thinking, as I realised it would most likely involve a life of me sitting in a desk looking at a computer screen. So as this happened wondered If I would have problems changing courses because of my crappy high school grades...
Guess what?!? I was right...
The plan I had for college was in the trash and I was having trouble getting into the course I did like then, Biology.
In the end my laziness kind of screwed me and kind of ruined my higher education.
Edit: Just in case you were wondering which was mine lol
Jul 12 2012: Ricardo, It is only when we think we have to do such and such by a certain age that we end up making statements like "laziness kind of screwed me and kind of ruined my higher education". I got my degrees after 40 after I had 5 children. You are NOT lazy! Just get busy now and somehow tap into your love of veterinary medicine! You CAN do it but it might be at a different school which is usually very good for exanding your understanding.
Jul 12 2012: Ah don't worry, my desire to become a veterinarian faded away a long time ago lol I was actually more interested in biology, psychology, and physics while I was in college. In the mean time I've figured out that college education in Portugal kind of sucks. I don't see myself taking any more here, If I start traveling maybe I'll be able to study a bit more abroad.
Jul 12 2012: Not really, no one cares about them here lol... But I do prefer a Hands on approach, I just need to get my projects working and then I'll have better chances of travelling lol.
lol Thanks... watching cartoon re-runs on Cartoon Network has it's perks (plus almost as many years of english as I had of portuguese in school helps lol)

The Worn Blanket, commonly known as Worns is a non-member clothing item that is worn on the back. It was formerly sold at Jam Mart Furniture. Greely, the wolf alpha, wears a purple worn blanket. Sir. Gilbert, the regal tiger alpha, also wears a red worn blanket. Most jammers shorten the "worn blanket" to a 'worn'.

The Worn Blanket is a thin, ragged blanket with holes in it. It is shown to drape over the Jammer's back when worn. This item comes in nine different varieties.
- The Worn Blanket was first released on October 4, 2010.
- This item was originally called the "Sleek Worn", but was later changed on its second release in 2011 to "Old Blanket". It achieved its current name, "Worn Blanket", in 2012.
- Upon the time of this item's first release, there were only four varieties; upon its second release, three more colors were revealed.

- The first was released at the Leap Year Party on February 23, 2012. This Worn Blanket is light purple.
- The second was released at Jam Mart Clothing for Rare Item Monday on June 9, 2014. This Worn Blanket is a light blue color.

Viisage Acquires Imaging Automation
Acquisition expands company's leadership position in identity solutions market
Viisage, a leading provider of advanced technology identity solutions, announced the Company has acquired Imaging Automation (iA), a privately-held company headquartered in Bedford, New Hampshire. The acquisition provides Viisage with a market leadership position in identity document authentication to complement the Company's core competencies in secure identity credentials and biometrics. This addition to Viisage's product portfolio is expected to extend reach into existing Viisage markets and provide a critical component to Viisage's comprehensive offering for new markets in need of identity solutions. The iA products are embedded into the recently announced Viisage Identity Solutions Suite, beginning with the Viisage PROOF offering.
Viisage has acquired all outstanding shares of iA stock for approximately $5 million in cash and 3.9 million newly issued shares of Viisage common stock as well as the assumption of $2.9 million in debt. The exchange is based upon the 20-day market closing price average of Viisage common stock as of two days prior to the completion of the transaction, which is $6.74. The transaction is expected to be accretive to Viisage on an EBITDA, operational cash flow and EPS basis in 2005.
Identity document issuing agencies, such as passport, visa, national ID, transportation security and driver's license authorities have a heightened awareness regarding the security vulnerabilities their documents pose to the public and homeland security. For example, the 9/11 Commission Report states that, "...for terrorists, travel documents are as important as weapons." iA's proprietary technologies, specifically in the areas of document scanning and authentication software, are fundamental to the solutions which effectively address this challenge. iA's hardware and software platforms are a foundation for world-class proofing solutions by providing real-time validation of documents and seamless integration with multiple biometrics. All of these offerings will be tightly integrated into Viisage's existing and future Identity Solutions Suite products, most notably in the proofing and usage processes.
"Imaging Automation provides a strong strategic fit for Viisage's identity solutions. The Company's market leading products provide both a complementary offering to our existing customers as well as high value entree into new markets such as finance, healthcare, and hospitality where the need to authenticate identity documents is at an all-time high and increasing dramatically," said Bernard Bailey, president and CEO of Viisage. "Further, iA provides an opportunity for us to leverage their existing relationships in federal programs such as the US-VISIT and Registered Travelers Pilot programs. We expect the combination of our two businesses and products will create a company uniquely positioned for solving critical issues around the integrity of an individual's identity, beginning with the up-front proofing and document authentication processes and continuing through credential usage."
The acquisition of iA enhances Viisage's existing global footprint, bringing installed customers in state, local and federal government agencies in countries including the United States, Canada, Hungary, Australia, Sweden, Finland, and the U.K. Many of iA's customers are focused specifically on significant border management solutions, providing valuable traction with a key component of Viisage's overall strategic growth plan. In the fiscal year ending September 30, 2004, on an unaudited basis, iA's revenues were approximately $6 million, more than a 100 percent increase over its revenues in its prior fiscal year.

text: A while back I had a little injury that has turned out to be not so little. I basically tore the cartilage off of the lateral tibial plateau in both of my knees. I am going to end up with a surgery that will leave me in a wheel chair for 3-6 weeks followed by crutches for a few weeks and then braces on the knees for ~2 years. I have always lifted weights and would like to continue doing so, but I am not sure about exercise selection. Obviously I will discuss anything I do with my doctor, but I would like to have some ideas of what I want to try. I have a reasonable plan for bench/bench assistance stuff, but I would like to get thoughts on low back/hamstring work as I would like to continue to compete in deadlift once I am healed. For example, I have never used a reverse hyper so I am not sure if it would stress my knees any and I am pretty sure that my doctor wouldn't even know what one is. I am particularly looking for advice from people who lift and also have some sort of medical background. If it helps I have roughly a 30 mm full thickness defect in the lateral tibial plateau in both knees and several meniscal tares. The meniscal tares are pretty easy, but the location and size of the articular cartilage tares make them pretty unique. My doctor plans on treating the defects through osteochondral allografts, or preferably, through a newer procedure somewhat similar to autologous chondrocyte implantation but with a product called denovo nt by a company called Zimmer. Any suggestions or advice would be very much appreciated.

Q. Looking at different articles on the internet, they say that we have to see ourselves as hell deserving before we can get saved. What is your view on this? I'm not denying that sin leads to death or anything, just wondering whether something like this would be an obstacle for salvation?
A. For the most part, people who don't think they have cancer are not motivated to take the cure. Once they discover they have it, then the cure becomes important. But the ones I've talked with say they didn't fully comprehend their condition until they came out of the treatment and realized how close they were to dying.
I think it's the same with our salvation. People who don't understand sin and its consequences aren't motivated to be saved. They have to become aware of their sinfulness, even if it's only in some abstract sense, before they can admit their need for a Savior. But they don't begin to fully comprehend the nature of their predicament until after they're saved and the Holy Spirit has revealed the truth to them. That's when the hard reality of what Hell is and how close they were to going there usually hits them.
Paul wrote that the man without the Spirit cannot comprehend the things that come from the Spirit of God (1 Cor. 2:14) and we don't get the Holy Spirit until after we're saved.
