Fat Privilege Contest - Results
Here are the top 10 I chose. Some of the examples may be triggering.
Fat privilege is having stores only sell your size range without it being considered "discrimination." – The fact that only 14-21% of the clothing industry sells plus size clothing with sizes normally ranging from a 14-24 (a range problematic in itself), does not really hold this as a good example of "fat privilege." Thin privilege is having an industry treat your body type as the norm and the majority retailers catering to people your size. *Note that the small range of sizes in plus size retail also reflects thin privilege because it still others fat people above a size 24, who have an even harder time finding clothes.
Fat privilege is having the entire world put your health above everyone else. – Since this example relies on fatness being pathologized and medicalized shows how it is truly an example of thin privilege. Thin privilege is having your body not be considered a site of disease and having your body be the basis of every diagnosis.
Fat Privilege is consuming more healthcare resources (Even just mechanical things, bariatric beds, more complex surgery) on the taxpayer dime. – Arguments like this rely on the belief that fat people do not participate in the same system that thin people do, completely ignorant of the fact that isn't true. Having to remind people that fat people not only have jobs but also pay for health care is pretty ridiculous. It also shames people who are sick, regardless of their body size. Do these people make these arguments against the elderly or women? Seeing as how old people obviously use more health care since as you age your change of having an illness increases. Similarly, while women on average live longer than men, we are also more likely to have long term illnesses or be disabled in our lifetime. Thin privilege is being considered a productive contributing member of society.
Fat female privilege is never worrying about being sexually objectified because most men think you're another species entirely. –This kind of response is always incredibly nauseating for me on so many levels. Not only does it erase the sexual violence fat people experience, it shows how when fat people are sexually assaulted / objectified people don't believe them. It also relies on rape culture suggesting sexual violence has to do with being considered attractive not about power while at its core based on the idea that fat people are not attractive. Thin privilege is having your experiences of being sexually objectified or assaulted taken seriously and not put into question due to the size of your body.
Fat privilege is being allowed to take up two seats on public transport without being berated – People who say stuff like this don't live in reality. They are also the first people to try and say forcing fat people to buy two seats on an airplane isn't discrimination. I'm sorry but just no. Not only does taking up more space than you are "allowed" in most public spaces make fat people run the risk of facing a confrontation, the idea that it's a form of privilege is so far outside of reality that I don't even need to rewrite it but simply change the first word of the sentence. Thin privilege is being allowed to take up two seats on public transport without being berated.
Fat privilege is getting to ride the mobility scooter around the store instead of having to walk – This is a really good example of how thin privilege and able bodied privilege intersects. It relies on the assumption that fat people are not disabled and merely using a scooter because they are lazy, while also completely erasing fat people with disabilities and often turns into arguments where fat people are blamed for their disabilities. "When a thin individual makes use of a mobility device (such as a cane, wheelchair, or motor-chair), their use is automatically ascribed to the presence of a disability. Meanwhile, if a fat person makes use of a mobility device, they are either assumed to be lazy or affected by a disability directly caused by their weight." The Intersectionality of Thin Privilege and Disability
Fat privilege is not having to worry about what you look like or how you're dressed when you leave the house because it wouldn't make a difference anyway. – While the way someone dresses is not going to change that they are marginalized or oppressed, it can lessen the way they experience prejudice. This is a really good example of how white, cis, straight, male, able bodied and thin privilege intersects or has similar impact on marginalized people. White, cis, straight, male, able bodied and thin privilege is not having to worry about how you dress because your worth or experiences in the world are not based on your physical appearance.
Fat privilege is comparing being made fun of as a child to civil rights of minorities – When people say stuff like this I wonder, do they realize that fat people exist among "minority" groups? Fat people exist in all marginalized groups of people and many discuss how fatness intersects with other identities. Also, the trivializing of experience is just super. Thin privilege is being able to deny systemic oppression by trivializing the well documented discrimination fat people experience.
Fat privilege is to be considered less shallow and vain than thin people – Some of these made me roll my eyes. Go into fat positive tumblrs and see the responses from trolls who freak the fuck out when a fat person DARES to have confidence. The reactions are normally disgusting because the idea fat people can love themselves or find themselves to be beautiful is mind blowing to people. Thin privilege is people not being surprised when you have confidence. Male privilege is not having people call you shallow or vain when you are confident in your appearance.
Fat privilege is being able to out last thin people in a period of famine or emergency where food is made unavailable – I was waiting for someone to make this argument. For some reason people with privilege really revel in the ability to create apocalyptic type scenarios where all the food in the world disappears and fat people rule the earth for the extra days their body weight will let them hold out. Aside from the fact that fat people face food insecurity in our own country, I wonder if water still available when the apocalypse happens? Regardless of size most people only last 3-4 days without water. This is also a really good segue into people in first world nations using incidences of people starving to death, including developing nations that have widespread famine, to deny thin privilege by denying the privilege of living in a industrialized nation or those of us that like to pretend class status is not directly linked to the amount / kind of food people have access to. Even if we were dealing with the apocalypse, what we would actually see are specific groups of people, probably those with more access to power or class status surviving longer because they have more resources at their disposal to protect them from the downfall of the world. You can actually look at history to see how this plays out and why fatness was historically considered to be a sign of wealth. First world, class and even white privilege is finding no issue with using the atrocities that happen to people living in developing nations to deny the space you take up in the world.
Understanding privilege isn't about apocalyptic type scenarios but instead discussing how social institutions systemically privilege specific groups of people. I prefer to deconstruct fat experience by talking about the realities of living in the world right now.

Scientists are taking a second look at Pluto's place in our solar system.
Pluto has been recognized as a part of the solar system since 1930, but only recently have scientists questioned its status as a planet.
"In the last ten or 15 years, we've discovered a number of other objects in the same general region of the solar system that Pluto is," said Charles Tolbert, a University Of Virginia Astronomy Professor.
The problem with this issue is, what constitutes a planet?
"We don't have a really good definition of what a planet is. Generally speaking, they're objects that orbit the sun," said Tolbert.
Other problems that have risen are with the discovery of the Kupier Belt.
"[The] Kuiper belt is this group of objects out past Neptune. They are chunks of ice basically. Most of them fairly small," continued Tolbert.
So the question becomes, is Pluto really a planet or just one of those chunks of ice?
"We would like to see the surface of Pluto, and decide then, perhaps, whether it is all ice, or partly ground, [or] rock," said Tolbert.
The International Astronomical Union, an organization of the world astronomers has a committee that decides whether or not an object is a planet and they will have the final say on Pluto's status.
"It's all nomenclature, its just nomenclature--what you decide to call things," said Tolbert.
With such controversy over Pluto, it is questionable how many people care in the first place.
"It's not relevant to me whether Pluto is a planet or not," said one community member.
"It's still a planetary body. How can we just not call it a planet anymore?" asked another. "Science has to accomodate for new changes and findings."
"I guess it just depends on the new scientific evidence that's coming out," concluded a community member.
This issue won't really be resolved until NASA's space probe lands on the surface of Pluto, and that won't be for another 10 years.

Timing is everything. Sperm can live for two to three days, but the egg is around for only 12 to 24 hours. To increase the likelihood of conception, it's important to have intercourse more than once around the time of ovulation. A good approach is to have sex one to two days before ovulation and again on the day you ovulate. That way, there's more likely to be a healthy supply of sperm waiting in the fallopian tube when an egg is released.
Of course, exactly when a woman ovulates isn't altogether clear. It all depends on the length of your menstrual cycle. A woman typically ovulates about 14 days before her next period — not mid-cycle, as is commonly held. If you have a 28-day cycle, which is the average, then you would ovulate halfway through your cycle. But if you have a 35-day cycle, you would ovulate around day 21, not day 17.
To determine the time when you're most likely to be fertile, try our ovulation calculator.
Some women are very aware of when they ovulate. Other women don't notice any changes at all. If you're thinking about getting pregnant, try to track your cycle for a couple of months. Some subtle signs of ovulation include:
If you still have trouble pinpointing the exact date of ovulation, you might consider trying an ovulation predictor test.
Most women have about 12 periods a year, but some skip months or don't get a period at all. Stress, heavy exercise, dramatic weight loss or gain — all of these can cause interruptions in your period. The more irregular your period is, the more difficult it is to predict ovulation. You can figure out the days you're most likely to be fertile by tracking when you ovulate each month.
Say your cycle is 28 days one month, 21 days the next month, and 32 days the following month. Keep a record of your menstrual cycles for several months. Then subtract 17 from your shortest cycle and 11 from your longest cycle. The days in between the two are the ones you're most likely to be fertile. If your cycles are irregular and more than 35 days apart or longer, you should consider seeing a fertility specialist to check for other causes of an irregular cycle, such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), ovarian dysfunction, thyroid disorder, excessive weight loss or an elevated prolactin level.
Of course, you don't have to plot basal body temperature or keep complicated logs if you don't want to. You don't even need to have an orgasm to get pregnant. Try having sex at least twice a week, and the law of averages probably will prevail.

"I used this little card as an insert with the invitation. I needed to add directions (quite extensive) on one side & the other side was used for where to mail "parent tips" & "baby wishes". Customer service was outstanding on helping me do this! I highly recommend tiny prints!"
"It turned out better than I thought! I had them move the text box higher on the page and I changed the ultrasound picture to a color that better matched the card using their system. It makes it personal and makes everyone smile when they see it."
"This is a very pretty note card and can be used for any occasion: thank you, hello note, and any short note of correspondence - timeless!"
"I went ahead and ordered the thank you card to go with my shower invite and LOVE IT! It is so cute and the quality of this product and the colors is awesome! I can't wait to send them out!"
"Family loved the image. Paper was strong and sturdy. Also order envelopes with return address on them. This was very helpful."

Known at one time as the Brittany Spaniel, this dog is a relative newcomer from France. He is one of the Hunt, Point and Retrieve breeds, and as such has already proved himself in Kennel Club field trials. His square shape gives him an unusual, clipped style of movement, and though he is a fairly light-built dog, he is capable of carrying hare or pheasant. The breed is not dissimilar to the old coaching dogs of Europe, especially some of the all-purpose gundogs to be found in Germany.
A busy dog, he has an affectionate, easy-going attitude to life. He is easy to train, and his dense, fine coat is not difficult to keep clean.
* If you are asthmatic or have an allergy, you should consult your medical advisor before considering obtaining a dog. More information can also be found on
the Kennel Club website.
Dogs that were originally trained to find live game and/or to retrieve game that had been shot and wounded. This group is divided into four categories - Retrievers, Spaniels, Hunt/Point/Retrieve, Pointers and Setters - although many of the breeds are capable of doing the same work as the other sub-groups. They make good companions, their temperament making them ideal all-round family dogs.

Teen 'Hacker' In Court Over Website Attacks
Cleary was arrested in a dawn swoop on his home in Essex
An Essex teenager has been charged with carrying out a hacking attack on the website of the UK's Serious Organised Crime Agency.
Ryan Cleary, 19, is also accused of launching attacks on the websites of music bodies the British Phonographic Industry and the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry.
He will appear in custody at City of Westminster Magistrates Court later charged with a total of five offences under the Criminal Law and Computer Misuse Acts, Scotland Yard said.
The university student was arrested at his detached family home in Wickford, Essex, as part of a Scotland Yard and FBI probe into the LulzSec group.
It came a day after the collective claimed to have brought down the US Central Intelligence Agency's website.
The group has also claimed responsibility for hacking attempts on the UK's Serious Organised Crime Agency, the US Senate and attacks on computer games giants Sony and Nintendo.
The Twitter user behind the @LulzSec page recently declared plans to break into government websites and leak confidential documents.
A message on the same account has denied that the teenager was a member of the group.
Cleary is charged with conspiring with other people on or before June 20 to create a remotely-controlled network of zombie computers, known as a "botnet", to carry out distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, where websites are flooded with traffic to make them crash.
It is claimed he launched such an attack on the Serious Organised Crime Agency's website on June 20.
He is also alleged to have attacked the British Phonographic Industry and International Federation of the Phonographic Industry websites in October and November respectively last year.
Investigations are continuing into other alleged hacking attacks in the UK and abroad.
It had been claimed that LulzSec had stolen the entire 2011 UK census database, but this has been denied by the group and by the Office for National Statistics.

More than half the children are of minority descent. Sadly, many of them have experienced abuse and neglect, and all have endured the trauma of being separated from their families. The challenges differ from child to child, but they all long for unconditional love, patience and understanding.
These are some of the children who come into the foster care system. They have been removed from their families, or voluntarily placed in foster care because of a breakdown in the family, for which the children pay the price. When the family home becomes unstable, unsafe, abusive, neglectful, or criminal, children are removed for their own safety. This, however, does not mean that children don't love the parent(s) with whom they lived, even in cases of extreme abuse, and the separation of families can be highly traumatic for them. They are perhaps leaving the only home they've ever known, being quickly transplanted elsewhere by adults who may not be forthcoming with explanations. If they have some belongings with them, the probability is that they are few. While efforts are being made today to keep siblings together, that isn't always possible and the additional trauma of this separation can be devastating.
Recent years have seen a rise in AIDS orphans. These are children whose parent(s) have died from AIDS and who end up in the foster care system because there are no other immediate options. The death(s) of their parent(s) is immediately followed by placement in a new environment which is probably radically different than the one they came from, and the difficult transition is compounded by the complex enormity of grief over losing their parent(s) and grief at losing the life they've known.
Medically fragile children, emotionally damaged children, children who badly need a home environment in which to receive care and nurturing to give them their best opportunities for the future.

Everytime I look at my resto shaman holding a caster dagger for Christs sake a little peice of me dies. But unfortunatley the RNG hates me and decent caster weapons never drop. I guess I have to drool over others.
A paladin who is rocking hard modes should be shooting for an Aesuga, off Vezax. It's much better itemized, and arguably as easy to get.
Don't get me wrong, this is a great pally weapon and all, but if you're gonna set a mark for a dream weapon, and a Val'anyr is out of the question, you'd be better served with Aesuga.
I'm not saying any one class deserves this more than another, but I'm happy I passed it to our restoshaman, because if you're capable of seeing one of these, there's better stuff you can get from a paladin perspective.
Just wanted to join the ranks of drooling 'never dropped for me' people. Still using 213 mace from Loatheb despite being halfway through Uld25. Took a hell of a long time to upgrade to that from the heroic nexus mace. God I'd love this, but hard-mode Hodir is still a long way off.

Foster Frequently Asked
Questions (FAQ)
does fostering work?
a dog is quite simple – it begins when you volunteer to love and care for a dog
in need in your home. You take one of Mutts Matter Rescue's dogs home
and provide them with love, nourishment and care until
it finds a forever home. MMR provides and pays for all the necessary
vetting. You supply the time and TLC.
long will I foster?
times vary from a few days to a few months – it depends on how long it
takes for a quality application to be approved for that particular dog.
am I saving lives?
is one of the most important things you can do in rescue. By fostering
you are not only saving the life of your foster dog (by ensuring he or
she has a loving and safe temporary home), but you also make room for
another animal at a shelter to come into rescue.
Foster parents are the most important people involved in a rescue. MMR
gets dozens of email and calls a day from organizations and people
begging us to save the lives of dogs in imminent danger of being
put to sleep. MMR works with a network of foster homes who care for the
dogs while we find them their permanent homes. We don't have a shelter,
so the fosters are invaluable to us. Their numbers dictate how many
lives we can save. Without the support and presence of fosters, most of
the dogs will never make it out of the shelter alive.
do I need to be a Foster Parent?
main criteria are love and patience. You don't have to have a yard -
many people who foster for us live in apartments. It's okay if you have
another dog, and even if you have a cat. Most of the dogs that we take
in are dog-friendly, and some even love cats. We will always work with
you to make sure that your foster dog is a good fit for your home.
does a Foster Parent Do?
the things that a dog owner does, but for a shorter time! Daily care,
feeding, grooming, reinforcing obedience, and generally giving the dog
love and affection. The reason why foster parents are so important is
because there are many wonderful, adoptable dogs in the shelters whose
perfect owners haven't found them yet. Many people are wary about
adopting directly from a shelter because so much is unknown about the
dog. We only take in temperamentally sound dogs, and people are more
likely to adopt from us because their foster parents can tell them what
they are like in a home situation, likes and dislikes, and little quirks
- things that are harder to tell in a shelter situation.
I have to have a fenced yard?
have no formal policy in regards to fenced in yards. We encourage owners
without fenced in yards to think about how their dog will get adequate
exercise and "take care of business". A fenced
in yard does not take the place of
walks and adequate exercise. We do not, however, allow the use of
electric fences.
long will the Foster Dog stay with me?
is the question we always get asked, and is the most difficult to
answer. It can be anything from a couple of weeks to a couple of months
- there is no fixed time. Sometimes we get a rush of people wanting to
adopt dogs from us, and other times it is slower. Also some dogs tend to
get adopted more quickly than others simply because of their age and
size. It varies from dog to dog.
I need to be home all day to Foster?
at all. Most regular dog owners aren't, and the dogs are fine. The only
things that we ask is that if you have another pet, that you secure the
foster dog in a crate or similar while you are away from the home. Never
leave the dogs together unattended for both of their sakes. The most
important thing to us is the safety of your pets, as well as the safety
of the foster dog.
I have to pay for everything myself?
at all. There will be small expenses such as dog bowls if you don't
already have them, but if you need help with food expenses, we are happy
to provide a bag of food for you. In the event that the dog requires
medical treatment or medication, MMR takes care of those expenses too. We
would love to be able to pay for toys and other things for them, but we
are a non-profit organization, and cannot afford to reimburse you for
these items. However, when we get toys and other sundries donated to us, we
will pass them straight onto you!
do you handle potential adopters for my Foster?
foster homes are included in the adoption process and make the placement
decisions with us. While the foster dog is in your care, MMR
volunteers will work with you to screen prospective adopters, make home
visits, and attempt to find the perfect match for your protégé'. We can
meet potential families together and the placement is thoroughly
discussed with every one involved. The rescue dogs however remain the
organization's responsibility. Our foster homes cannot make rescue
and/or placement decisions without the approval of MMR's officers.
if I become attached to my Foster Dog?
is completely natural - you are fostering because you love dogs, and you
will probably become attached. It would be strange if you didn't! When
you meet the family that will give the dog his permanent home, though,
you will be more than happy to see him go. That's why you fostered in
the first place! It is a wonderful thing to do to make sure that a dog
in need will find a loving home!
if I want to adopt my Foster Dog?
course! We understand how you can become attached and we offer you the
first choice at adopting your foster!
it be hard to let them go?
is not easy to let go of a foster dog. All MMR volunteers understand
this very well. Foster parents are often concerned about their
attachments to the animals - When they realize what a wonderful gift
they were able to give to an animal in need, it makes it all worthwhile!
To have opened your heart and your home, and given a needy dog a second
chance is truly an amazing experience. By turning them over to their
permanent home, you will be able to foster another dog in need if you so
choose. If we can only save one more life, it is worth the world and the
sadness to say goodbye.
Sum it up.......
If you are interested in becoming a foster parent, there are only a few steps to
Submit a foster application (you must be at least 21 years of age to be a foster parent).
Agree to a prescreen interview, a home visit and, if applicable, a vet reference.
When you are approved --
MMR will provide:
Food (if requested)
Crates (if needed)
All veterinary care at an MMR approved vet
Heartworm /Flea/tick preventative and other necessary meds
24/7 support in emergencies
with training and behavioral help for your foster dog

she/he finds a permanent home

reward of rescue
into the eyes of your foster dog and you will find the best reward in
the world.... . All
of us at Mutts Matter

contributing to our mission.

our organization. Thank you for your interest!

Let's hoist a glass to Frank Bruni of The New York Times for his 3,200-word paean to the authentically local food scene of Seattle in Sunday's Travel section. Best quote: "To eat in and around Seattle, which I did recently and recommend heartily, isn't merely to eat well. It is to experience something that even many larger, more gastronomically celebrated cities and regions can't offer, not to this degree: a profound and exhilarating sense of place."
But I also liked, "You want a closer relationship with what you eat? At the Willows Inn You can practically bed down with it."
Take that, Red Lobster.

August 28, 2014
MB Motorsports Press Release - August 28, 2014 - MB MOTORSPORTS: A Weekend Of Firsts At CanadianTire Motorsport Park When youve been in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series since its inaugural season, you dont often get the opportunity to race at a track youve never been to before. That, however, will be the case for MB Motorsports when the team unloads the #63 Personal Comfort Bed / Mittler Brothers Machine & Tool Chevy at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park for the Chevrolet Silverado 250. The race will also be the first time the team has raced outside the U.S.
The Chevrolet Silverado 250 will mark Stenzels third start of the season and his first attempt on a road course. This is our first race with Personal Comfort Bed on board the MB Motorsports Chevy, so I want to make them proud and get them as much exposure as we can. Ive done everything I can to prepare for this race, says Stenzel.
Canadian Tire Motorsport Park has a little bit of everything as far as tracks go, according to Stenzel. Youve got a total of ten turns to navigate through. Theres a very long, very fast front stretch that youve got to back way, way down from as you enter the very tight turn at the far end of the track. Then youve got to negotiate a series of big, sweeping turns on your way back to the start / finish line. Its a challenging track that is probably as fun for the fans to watch as it is to race.
This weekend is going to be something rare for us, says team owner Mike Mittler. Its not often that we show up at a track weve never been to, let alone a road course. If we can make Scott as comfortable in our Chevy Silverado race truck as he is in a Personal Comfort Bed, it will be smooth sailing.

The team has given many young drivers their start in NASCAR, including Sprint Cup Series winners Carl Edwards, Jamie McMurray, Brad Keselowski and Regan Smith.
Never having raced at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, this is going to be a fun adventure for the team. As far as road courses go, this is a fast track. Youve got a long straight, a short straight, slow, tight turns, fast, big turns. This track has it all. It also makes it challenging to set the truck up, because everything is a compromise. What you need in one portion of the track isnt what you need in another. In other words, just like in life, balance is the key.

Sonographer Schooling and Training Program Requirements
Sonography, also called ultrasound, is a technical medical procedure that uses the reflected echoes of sound waves to create images of internal organs. A diagnostic medical sonographer operates the equipment that generates, reads and displays sonographic images, which doctors then evaluate. Prospective sonographers typically receive formal training through certificate or associate's degree programs at community colleges or technical schools.
Education and Training Requirements for Sonographers
Sonographers can learn diagnostic imaging through on-the-job training at a hospital, as a medic in the armed forces or in a formal degree programs. While colleges and universities widely offer diagnostic medical sonography training at the certificate, associate's degree and bachelor's degree level, associate's degree programs are the most prevalent.
All programs are structured to combine classroom study and supervised clinical experience. Certificate programs offer focused coursework in such topics as sonographic physics, sonographic instruments, abdominal and pelvic anatomy, sectional anatomy and diagnostic imaging. Associate's degree programs are more comprehensive, covering more general medical knowledge, such as medical terminology, general anatomy and medical ethics, as well as the liberal arts. Some programs give students the option of focusing on general sonography or such sub-specialties as cardiovascular sonography, neurosonography or obstetric-gynecological sonography.
Although states do not license sonographers or require certification, the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS) offers several different credentials to those who pass voluntary exams. These include the Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer (RDMS), Registered Vascular Technologist (RVT) and Registered Diagnostic Cardiac Sonographer (RDCS).
Certification may offer sonographers an employment advantage because employers generally view these credentials as a standard measure of professional standing. As of 2010, ARDMS did not have a recertification procedure but was evaluating proposals to implement one.
Career Information
According to Payscale.com, as of February 2010 sonographers with 1-4 years of experience earned a median wage of $23.76 per hour and those with 5-9 years of experience earned $29.19 per hour. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), reported that in 2008 nearly 60% of sonographers worked for private and public hospitals, while the rest were employed in physician's offices, outpatient clinics or other health care facilities (www.bls.gov).
The BLS predicted an 18% job growth for sonographers in the years 2008-2018. This rise was expected to be driven by the medical needs of an aging population and improvements in sonographic technology that allow its use in a wider range of medical procedures.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Ed Dickson participated fully in practice for the second day in a row. That is a good sign for the Ravens who have struggled with depth at that position in particular this summer.
Dennis Pitta suffered a season ending injury before Ed Dickson went down with his own injury to his hamstring.
Ed Dickson (hamstring) participated fully for second day in a row
— Aaron Wilson (@RavensInsider) September 3, 2013
That is a good sign for the Ravens who open the season on Thursday night against the Denver Broncos.
"I feel like I'm ready to get out there and do the things I need to do," Dickson said, via the Baltimore Sun. "Practice is just as hard as the game. If I can get to where I practice fully, I feel like I'll be able to go. I couldn't said I can't, I can't say I'm going to be able to go. I'm just training my hardest to get out there Week One."
"Getting these pads on, being out there with your boys, it's encouraging just to not be in the treatment center," Dickson said. "I've been looking out the window like a little kid on punishment. It makes me work even harder knowing I'm a step closer to getting back. I hate sitting on the sideline."

The problem you're describing really isn't related to the Warlock quest, just Ghostlands. Over here we affectionately refer to GL as "the noob zone that is NOT for noobs". It's absolutely perfect for an experienced player who wants to get to the interesting level ranges quickly, with decent gear, though with higher risk. Take a look at the quest target locations: it's an almost flawless quest grind. A player who's done GL before can knock out 11-20 in one, perhaps two sittings. There's just one catch: you screw up, you die. Outside of towns there aren't many "safe spots" in GL. You've got wandering elites, fearbombs, a huge variety of mob abilities, mobs are close together and, yes, the respawn rate is more like Hellfire Peninsula than Barrens. Higher risk, higher reward. What other zone gives you blues before 20 without having to set foot in an instance?

I Won't Let You, Petey0 Reviews
Pete is preparing to bring back memories, just as Ryan had, to make Cammy happy, no matter who it affects. Will anything stop him from seeing her smile?
*Cammy's POV*
I got into my car hesitantly, wishing I didn't have to leave him. I watched his smile slowly morph to a frown as I backed out of his driveway, leaving him to wonder why I wasn't giving him my utmost attention. After all, I loved him, and he knew it. But every day he seemed less and less convinced that I was telling the truth about my feelings; I could see it in his eyes.
I regretted the moment Brendon has interrupted his sentence. Now I wished I had listened to him more closely, as now I was lingering on every word that seemed to foreign and distant to me. Please, whatever he was planning on saying, just let him tell me later. And please God, let it be the words I've been hoping and wishing for him to say for so long. Those three words that meant the world.
I love you. That's all it would take for me to be happy, and yet, he held them from me, as if to take away my light and watch me squirm. Damn, my emotions always go the better half of me, and I truly despised it.
I pulled into the small bakery on the corner of South Street, sitting isolated and standing proud toward the dark sky. It was about ten thirty now, and I was worried that they wouldn't be open. But, much to Pete's comfort, they were just about to close. I rushed inside and stood at the counter, ready to order.
"Hi. I'd like two large boxes of red velvet cupcakes, please?" I requested the stout woman standing at the counter, patiently waiting for her shift to be over.
She walked behind the racks of cakes and brought back two big boxes of Pete's favorite cupcakes. I gladly took the box, eager to see Pete's face when I handed them to him. I left the woman her money and returned to me car, which was still running. The radio was on, and ironically, I Write Sins Not Tragedies began playing. I smiled to myself and began down the road to Pete's familiar house. His favorite car sat in the driveway that he had always wanted since I had known him. I pulled up next to it and shut the engine off; Pete came running from inside his house and hugged me quickly before grabbing the two boxes of pastries.
"Come in. I'm pretty lonely here," He insisted, motioning for me to follow him inside. I did so obediently and sat down in his living room, on the white couch near a large window. Pete sat down on the chair next to me, and anxiously opened the box to find his beloved cupcakes. "I love you, Cammy. You're the only person I know who would go out at ten thirty to buy me these. Seriously, you're awesome."
I smiled and took one from the box. He indulged in the sweet, fluffy piece of food and swallowed.
"Pete? I need to talk to you about something. I'm worried about the fight between you and Ry. I…I heard all about it. I just want you to know that it wasn't his fault. Really," I assured him.
"He told me the story, Cams. Don't try to tell me differently. I know what he told me. I know it was him, and…and I hate him for it," He explained.
"You can't hate him. I won't let you, Petey. Please, just tell him you didn't mean it, and everything will be fine," I tried to persuade him.
"How can I when I know that he was the one who hurt you? Who took all the life form your eyes? It's difficult knowing there's a reason for it. I love you, Cammy. I can't let someone just get away with hurting you like that," He continued.
"Come on, Pete. Please, I can't live with myself knowing I tore two best friends apart. Just…Please, tell him you weren't listening to what you were saying. Tell him you messed up," I pleaded with him. "If you ever want to see the life in my eyes again, just tell him you're sorry."
"If you say so, if you want me to, I will. As long as you get back to your old self, Cammy," Pete told me, smiling. "I'll say something to him later."
"Good. That gives me some time to spend with Patty. I told him that I would see him today and I never did…I have to get it off my conscience," I explained to him, grinning. I was more than overjoyed when he told me he would talk to Ry. "Can I stay here tonight? I don't feel like driving back to my place."
"You bought me cupcakes. I owe you, so yeah. Of course you can stay. And then tomorrow we can go do something together," He informed me. "I'll get you some clothes to sleep in, and you can take a shower if you want. Sound good?" He asked me.
"Perfect," I replied, waiting for him to return with the clothes. He threw me a pair of baggy sweatpants and an extra large Chicago tee shirt. I got up and left for the bathroom, delighted to finally relax.
After getting Pete's clothes on, I returned to the living room, where Hemmingway lay on top of him. He was stretched out on his largest couch, half asleep. I smiled and lay down next to him. It was the only couch big enough for me to sleep on, and I was lucky it was large enough for two people.
"I'll see you in the morning, Cams. Good night," Pete whispered to me, turning to face me. I smiled.
"Good night, Pete," I whispered back.
And with that, I was off in a deep, well desired sleep.
I woke up, arms wrapped around Pete. I quickly moved them, a little embarrassed with myself, hoping he wasn't conscious enough to feel my arms around his body. It was a little awkward to say the least, so I rubbed my eyes and sat up. I still couldn't tell if he was up or not; all I know was he was breathing evenly, facing the opposite side of the couch.
"Good morning, Cammy," He said, his voice scratchy from his sleep. I smiled at him.
"Morning, Peter Panda," I replied. "So what are we doing today? I'm curious."
"Way to let me wake up," He laughed. "I was thinking we could go to that field we always used to go to when we were younger. Remember that?" He suggested, wondering if I could remember one of my most vivid memories between us.
There was a huge meadow, high on a hill surrounded by thick trees on any side that wasn't visible from the road. No one knew about it except me and the guys, and some days when we were skipping school we would go to hang out there. The teachers always became a little suspicious with us when nine of their students, that just happened to be best friends, were missing for a day once in a while.
Ryan, Brendon, Spencer, Jon, Patrick, Pete, Joe and Andy and I would go there and learn new things about each other, things that would never be repeated anywhere else. Things that nobody else knew about us; it's where our friendships blossomed and became the best things that would ever happen to us.
"Of course I remember," I admitted, smiling upon thinking about it. "Let's eat some breakfast and go. I can't wait to see it again, after these last few years."
We both knew why we hadn't been there in the last few years. I didn't want to say it, but I was fully aware; we had drifted apart lately. I hated it. I wanted everything to be back to the way they were when I was just a school girl, experimenting with my life, making dumb decisions and taking risky chances. Now I'm a distraught twenty year old, caring about everything that people thinks about me, wishing I had lived in those moments longer.
We ate breakfast and headed out in Pete's car to the small patch of grass on the corner of the street a block from the high school. He parked his car on the side of the road, and we got out, preparing to relive memories that would stay with us forever.

LAWTON Okla_ 7News has new
information on Lawton's Greiner School
for the Handicapped. They opened their doors to their students this week after
being in jeopardy of having to close their doors for good at the end of the
last school year.
As we reported
back in July, their funding had run out and they knew they wouldn't be able to
pay their staff or for all the things that are needed to run a school. Things have changed for the better since
The Greiner School found a way to stay open, thanks
to donations from the community. Plus, the teacher and bus driver decided to
volunteer. That doesn't mean they are out of the woods, though.
The air
conditioning has been out in the building where the classrooms are, so the
students and teacher spend the whole day in the lunch room. Class started Monday
at the Greiner School, which was a month later than
normal. At least it's open, which didn't seem likely at the end of the last
school year.
President of
the Greiner School Board Barbara Reynolds said the Greiner School
has always been an important part of her life, because her mother taught there
for 40 years.
Reynolds said
that back when Robert Greiner was alive, the school was a different place.
"It was
vibrant," Reynolds said. "It was alive. There were things done in the
community. The students learned how to do things."
Reynolds said
they used to have cooking, sewing and gardening classes, so they could learn
things they could apply in their everyday lives. Reynolds said they plan on
going back to that.
Greiner School
Teacher Cynthia Salas said she was devastated when she heard they might not be
able to have school this year.
"I thought
of these guys and where they would go," Reynolds said. "A lot of them don't
have anywhere to go, and a lot of them grew up here with these guys. They're
friends. They've made friends. They're kind of like family."
Aside the fact
that funding the school is an issue, everyone is just happy to be back in their
needs to feel that they can be as independent as they can possibly be, and they
need to get the acknowledgment for the things that they do," Reynolds
Right now, the
only paid employees at the Greiner
School are the office
manager and the thrift store manager. That money is coming from the thrift
Reynolds encourages anyone to help by volunteering or donating.

(WHAS11 Political Blog Analysis) By an overwhelming bipartisan vote, 94-4, the Kentucky House on Monday passed a Medicaid budget compromise that would allow Governor Steve Beshear (D) to implement his proposal to shift money from next year's Medicaid budget to this year.
Yet, if Beshear's promised cost savings do not materialize, House Bill 1 would trigger cuts to state government that are sought by Senate President David Williams (R-Burkesville).
The bill now goes to the Senate, where Williams and the Republican majority are faced with several political choices as legislators and - in Williams' case - as a candidate for governor.
By excluding most areas of the education budget from the potential cuts, the House compromise sides with half of Beshear's stance. Yet, the bill would require the governor to step away from his insistence that the Medicaid shortfall be fixed with Medicaid dollars.
The deal also exposes campaign gambits by both Beshear and Williams in that it centers on the question of whether Beshear can deliver on promised savings in time for the cuts to be unnecessary, a conclusion that will be reached some two months before the fall election.
Williams' negotiating role in the compromise has been in limbo as House leaders hammered out the details. Even before the special session convened, House Republican Floor Leader Jeff Hoover (R-Jamestown) appeared to have weakened Williams' position by expressing disapproval of any education cuts.
In a video statement released Monday night, Hoover took an inferred swipe at Beshear and Williams.
"We just stood up and said, look we want to move above the fray of the politics of this and we believe that we need to find a solution to the issue, and so we went to work," Hoover said.
Though Williams' legislative agenda dominated the 2011session, Hoover emphasized the relevance of Republicans on the other end of the capitol.
"It is a good day," Hoover continued, "because it is clear that we are now a major part of the process. The House Democrats recognize us even though we have 42 members and in the minority, they recognize that we can be contributors, that we can work together when we need to, and I hope and think that the Senate recognizes it now, that we're part of the process."
Yet, at what expense to Williams?
Hoover's comments:

Our daughter graduated from Groton a few years ago. The dimensions of the Groton education extend well beyond academics, which are very rigorous, to include leadership, team work, community service, and faith. Groton is peerless; while perhaps equaled in some dimensions, it is not surpassed.
Groton School is the most phenomenal school in the world. It is exemplary in producing well-rounded students with rich backgrounds in academics, leadership, service, athletics, and the arts. At the very least, it is better than St. Mark's.
Groton is a boarding/preparatory school. I currently am a student there, and I enjoy it. The hardest part for me is being away from my family, but your friends will help you fill that void. The teachers are always available, and there are a lot of different courses to choose from.

Airmen at contingency facility provide rest, comfort for servicemembers
BAGRAM AIRFIELD, Afghanistan – Staff Sgt. Giacomo Zignago, an aerospace medical technician from Task Force Med/455th Expeditionary Medical Group, tracks inbound and outbound patients on a white board at the contingency aeromedical staging facility here, Sept. 13, 2009. Sergeant Zignago is a Stockton, Calif., native and is deployed from Travis Air Force Base, Calif. Tracking the patients can be a dynamic and fluid process according to officials here, especially when environmental factors such as weather, noise and the stress of combat are factored in. The CASF, as it's known here, is designed to ease the patient-load at the main hospital here and provides and overflow capability. (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Felicia Juenke)

Airmen at contingency facility provide rest, comfort for servicemembers

BAGRAM AIRFIELD, Afghanistan
-- In an air-conditioned tent, the sounds of Army Blackhawks carrying the wounded can be heard a few dozen feet away, as wounded servicemembers eagerly await for an aeromedical evacuation flight to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany.
A recent addition to the medical team's capabilities here is the Contingency Aeromedical Staging Facility, "an overflow facility for the main hospital," said Capt. Bostella Walker, a nurse deployed form Langley Air Force Base, Va., who serves as the officer in charge of the facility that sees many of Afghanistan's out-patient medical cases.
Medics see patients with a variety of injuries here, according to the captain, a Vicksburg, Miss. native.
"From nine-line IED injuries in the lower extremities, to traumas, we're an extension of the hospital." According to the captain, the overflow capability was severely tested this week when a large group of more than 20 patients were waiting for flights to Germany.
Caring and housing for these patients as they move through the aeromedical process is a challenge, according to Tech. Sgt. Jason Stalling, a hospital administrator deployed from Scott AFB, Ill. who ensures the floors are mopped at least twice a day trying to keep the Afghan dust out of the tent.
"We have filled this facility with patients; and that's not a good thing," the sergeant from Indianapolis said about the air-conditioned structure comprised of multiple joined Alaska tents. "The first month we were open [July], we saw the most amount of injuries ever." from Operating Enduring Freedom. They exceeded that number in August and are track for breaking records in September as well, according to Sergeant Stalling.
As the Craig Joint Theater Hospital's overflow facility, the tents are lined with medical supplies, stretchers and gear you'd expect to find in any major hospital, but something was lacking.
"There was nothing for them to do," said Sergeant Stalling looking on at four Army soldiers waiting on transportation, which could take days to arrive. "All they could do was sit on their beds; now the USO donated more than 7,000 dollars of TVs, games and DVDs for the wounded."
Large screen televisions played Armed Forces Network and movies while the servicemembers were waiting on their flights.
"I got here three days ago and there was nothing," said Army Pfc. Christopher Sednek, a native of Shelbyville, Ind., who was waiting on transportation for a respiratory problem. Now there's a big screen for movies, and popular Playstation Portable gaming devices for the wounded to play if they desire. "Often times, we're taken out of the field with nothing, just the clothes we're wearing. This is nice to have; it takes your mind off of things and helps the days go by."
The Airmen at the CASF treat everyone, from Americans to Afghans, to Coalition servicemembers. Lt. Col. Eid Al Abadi, from Jordan, was resting on a cot near a field hospital sink, fed by five-gallon jerry cans of water.
"It's a good place to rest and wait," he said through a translator. "I am thankful for them."

ok I must have missed that one then, since I thought I read all the changes in that patch.
My next question is less about raid tanking and leveling per se, but it is applicable to dungeon tanking and heroic tanking, especially in today's 5 mans where everything is still AOE fest.
Since Rune Strike now is an on-GCD instant cast ability (unlike before where it's attached to your next swing), and Death Strike can be used on anyone with equal effectiveness, is this a viable strategy for AOE tanking (or tanking say 3 mobs where you need to build threat off the other mobs lest they go to your healer):
1. Apply diseases, pestilence, dnd, blood boil (the standard stuff)
2. Death strike, tab
3. Rune Strike, tab
4. Go back to step 2, refresh step 1 as necessary
Am I missing something?
