Welcome to the Best and Worst of WWE Raw for September 13, 2011. Before we begin:
– Be sure to leave a comment if you read the report. If Vince McMahon is ever on his word processor and accidentally stumbles upon the site, it'll make me look cooler to have 200 comments than it would to have 8. Also, these things take about three and a half hours to build from start to finish, not counting the two hours of wrestling I have to sit through, so your feedback and thoughts are my payment. Money is my payment, too, but I get these four times a month.
– That being said, allow me to pull a Zack Ryder and invite you to like me on Facebook, follow me on Twitter, buy the t-shirt and the headband and the sunglasses (I don't have those things).
– As previously mentioned, I'm headed to Los Angeles on Thursday, so both The Best And Worst Of Night Of Champions and the next night's Best and Worst Of Raw will feature guest writers. Handling the Night of Champions report will be Andrew Johnson of the popular The John Report, which I think is a blog about bathrooms. Covering next week's Raw will be writer Diego McCafferty, a man shockingly important to my pro wrestling fandom. Be kind to them and give them the same kind of response you'd give me, only with more curse words. Burnsy will be in charge of With Leather while I'm off taking mark photos with Maleficent (or Andre Ethier, or whoever), so if they do a terrible job, blame him.
– A.J. image unrelated, but important.
Enjoy the report. See you in two weeks.
Best: Bret Hart Is No Style, All Stubstance
Bret Hart, to me, is the Washington Nationals.
I love the Cleveland Indians. I lived in Cleveland for four years and they were my first "hometown" team, so weird racist human being mascot or not, they're my team. The Washington Nationals are my National League team, or "the team I support in the National League but don't really care about". I spent most of a year in Bethesda, Maryland, so I learned to love the Nats and their whistling eagle mascot and their racing Presidents. In wrestling terms, Sting was my Cleveland Indians. I grew up in "Horseman Country" (southern Virginia, right on the border of North Carolina) so pre-Crisis days of the NWA, and later, WCW, were my hometown team. I knew of and enjoyed the WWF, but it wasn't my thing. It seemed cartoonish and fake to me, but I liked Bret Hart. He was the guy in the Wrestlemania 2 celebrity battle royal who wasn't a big fat guy and he wore sunglasses, so I thought he was cool. I liked the Killer Bees, too, but that's like cheering for the Astros and destroys my analogy.
Anyway, I followed Bret Hart throughout his career, but I was never one of those little African kids from the video packages about him being a hero who'd run up to him with tears in their eyes. I liked him, but I didn't really care. He'd put on good matches against the Rockers or whoever, sure, but I had the Steiner Brothers, so basically everything he did looked like sh*t. That's what the American League tends to do to the National League (pitchers batting is the "Doink" of baseball, a thing that seems stupid and IS stupid, but started off as a great idea). Unexpectedly complex story short, it makes me happy to see Bret on television and he's fully welcome to wander out and shrug his shoulders at us through varying stages of stroke madness for the rest of his life. Alberto Del Rio is right about him — he looks like a bum, he looks like a homeless person, his jacket is dumb, his hair is stupid — but I wouldn't be watching the National League if I wasn't expecting to be a little bit bored. Also, Jesus Christ, what happened to the Indians?
But no, seriously, if a guy has a stroke, is it still okay to make fun of him for saying "stubstance?" What if you put this music behind it?
Best: Alberto Del Rio Gets Illegal Immigrant Canadians To Clean His House
While running down Bret Hart's Smodcast get-up, Alberto Del Rio, the guy responsible for about 80% of Raw's bests between now and whenever CM Punk gets his sh*t together, said Bret looked like one of the illegal Canadians he hires to clean his house. The logistics of that are amazing, and explain why he got an independent wrestler from California to be his Spanish ring announcer. Maybe I don't understand how NAFTA works, but would down-on-their-luck Canadians make the trek across the entire body of the United States to get a housekeeper or landscaping job at the Del Rio Estate? If I attend a gala at Alberto's, will I be served berry sangria by a spindly-looking white dude in a Kyle Broflovski hat?
This whole thing is amazing, and another reason why John Cena's one-two punch of "your richness is a gimmick" and "go back to Mexico" are so disappointing. I hate to keep comparing Del Rio to the Big Bossman, but while nobody ever thought Bossman was an actual Cobb County police officer, we were fully prepared to believe that The Mountie disagreed with his interpretation of justice or that Nailz was a legitimate escaped convict who never had time to change his clothes once between May and December of 1992. This is why we're watching the show, John. We don't want "this guy is rich" to be the whole story. That's Ted DiBiase Jr. We want "this guy is rich, and here are a bunch of ridiculous f**king things he does with his richness". The Million Dollar Man wasn't awesome because he had money, he was awesome because he used that money to lure children into street games under false pretenses and make folks kiss his feet. Alberto isn't rich enough to own a nice car, he's rich enough to own EVERY nice car, and to bring in non-union labor from countries that make absolutely no sense.
Also, holy sh*t, wrestlers are still telling foreigners to go back where they came from in 2011.
Worst: Johnny Ace's Only Idea Is Tag Matches
The closest Cena came to being on The Truman Show this week is mimicking what John Laurinaitis was going to say and how he was going to say it on a two second delay from Laurinaitis saying the exact same thing in the exact same way, but the "worst" comes from John Ace's second-ever executive call being the same as his first — he decided we should have a tag team match pairing up John Cena and Bret Hart to take on the team of Alberto Del Rio and a guy who is not technically employed by WWE.
Either of the other suggested matches would've been better (Del Rio vs. Hart in a WWE Championship match would've been shoot exciting, and Cena squashing Ricardo would've accomplished everything the tag did, sans slow-motion Sharpshooter) and I'm sorta deeply disappointed that Triple H didn't run out and pull away the mic mid-declaration to make his own tag match announcement. Or Teddy Long. Jeez, counting the Anonymous Raw General Manager (who is still showing up, I'm not losing faith) we have FOUR GUYS roaming around backstage with match-making powers. The last thing I want to do with my column is compare every bad thing that happens to TNA, but this is a hell of a lot like that period where Jeff Jarrett, Hulk Hogan, Eric Bischoff, Ric Flair, Mick Foley and like Traci Brooks all could make matches and hire and fire people, but Dixie Carter could overrule them all, but SHE could be overruled by the executive board of directors or whatever and nobody knew what the f**k was happening ever. Next week on Smackdown, ECW General Manager Tiffany needs to show up out of nowhere and put Randy Orton in a tag match without explanation.
Worst: Alex Riley Has Gone From CAW To E-Fed
Every week I've got a joke ready to go about Alex Riley being the wrestler you create when you first get the video game and you don't want to make anyone too outlandish, so you make a buffed up version of yourself with knee and elbow pads and maybe a big cross tattoo on your back, and you play a few matches as him in season mode but you're not good at the game yet, so you keep accidentally jumping out of the ring or messing up your finisher and having to set it up all over again. That's been accurate since his face turn (he even has the tough guy music you'd choose), but if you watch the above clip, Riley has evolved past that notion and moved straight into Terrible E-Fedding.
If you've never been in an "e-fed" before, it's a lot like a pro wrestling version of "Dungeon and Dragons" only the monsters are all slight variations on the Undertaker and the Dungeon Master has to win all the time. More importantly, the generic e-fed wrestler has to be sorta big and ripped, be able to reverse anything anybody else tries and have nothing but finishers in his moveset. Riley comes into the ring and does or tries to do the following moves:
1. A running attack you can't block
2. Spinebuster
4. Implant DDT
And when he's not doing moves, he's effortlessly stopping double-team attacks and reversing everybody's finisher. Not a headlock or an International in the bunch. All he needed to do was a goddamn Fisherman Buster and he'd be the first draft of every e-fed character I've ever seen. And the TKO? Seriously? "I want to do a move that's just like the Stunner or the RKO, except I have to struggle and hold the guy up on my shoulders and spin in place first. Also, the only person who has ever been cheered for doing this ever is Sable, and that was just the once." Everybody who sucks thinks the TKO is awesome, and if right now you're sorta mumbling "wull I like the TKO", get your head out of 1998's asshole. Teddy Hart called, he wants his taste in wrestling back.
Best/Worst: This Is The Best Episode Of "The West Wing" Ever
Part of what makes Miz and R-Truth such a successful duo is the understanding that everything they do is pre-planned. I've mentioned before that The Miz seems less like a wrestler and more like a guy pretending to be a wrestler (an observation that got me quoted by Grantland.com's The Masked Man in a Fair to Flair podcast), and the Miz/Truth partnership takes that one step further — Miz has roped Truth into his "must see" segments, and now we get situations where they come to the ring doing Vaudeville wordplay or a backstage segment where they take the microphone away from Josh and walk to the ring, communicating and passing off the microphone without even having to look at each other. Truth wears a big jacket (for some reason, which is hilarious to me) and tries to work in a new catchphrase, "ninja please!", complete with Miz doing a Blazing Saddles-quality "WHAT did you just say?" like any of us though he said nigga.
They go to the ring and do each others' catchphrases, and there's just something wonderful about two guys who can't find someone to listen finding best friends. Miz and Morrison never had that. Watch any old episode of the Dirt Sheet, Miz does his thing, Morrison say something weird about the Palace of Wisdom and Miz just rolls his eyes like Morrison is an idiot (he is) and moves on. Miz couldn't break up with Morrison fast enough, he got crammed together with Daniel Bryan and Alex Riley, two guys he eventually drove away with hateful demands, but he seems comfortable with Truth, and the demands all seem like a group effort, and Truth could really be his Cowboy Bob Orton. Just a guy with a similar outlook on life who hangs out with him, and even when they screw up they never really come to blows, because who else are they gonna hang out with?
Neither: Miz Vs. Kofi Kingston
This isn't really meant as an insult to Kofi Kingston, whose offense is limited to donkey punching and jumping, but Miz and Kingston had an exciting enough and perfectly acceptable mid-card match that I'd forgotten happened about twenty seconds after it was over. This sort of proves how bad of an idea pairing Kofi against the same guy every week for months at a time is — there was a streak a while back where Miz wrestled Kofi every Monday, so now, months removed, their match still seems like a tired repeat. If Miz and Kingston don't wrestle one-on-one again until Wrestlemania 35 it won't matter, because as soon as they start going through the motions it's going to feel exactly like this. "Exciting enough" and "perfectly acceptable" weren't in that sentence to make the juxtaposition with indifference funny, it was actually a completely fine match, and it gets two major bests for me:
Best: Miz's Appeal Actually Works
I don't know if they're prepping for WWE 12 and its Wake Up animations or not, but for the first time I can remember, Miz did the claw-X above his head and did his "Batman running and holding his cape" pose before the Skull-crushing Finale, and it actually led to a Skull-crushing finale. Maybe next week Kofi will stand in the corner clapping his hands and yelling "boom" and actually connect with the Trouble In Paradise.
Best: "I Wish You Would"
Miz and Kofi exchanged some heated hip-toss attempts that sent them both tumbling to the outside, so the production guy stopped eating a sandwich mid-bite to yell GO TO COMMERCIAL BREAK with ham and sh*t falling out of his mouth. Before they could fade to Twix, we got an awesome moment where Evan Bourne and R-Truth came around opposite sides of the ring to check on their partners, and Bourne acted like he was going to start something … so Truth just stares him down and says "I wish you would." It was the greatest.
Michael Cole says "Mill-guillicutty" and "Jerry Lauer" in the first nine seconds of this video. He is paid by wrestling to talk for a living.
Best: Sheamus Is All Personality
WWE has a terrible tendency to equate smiling with fair play. The best example is Brock Lesnar, a seething beast built out of monster tattoos and log-jogging who showed up out of nowhere and coldly dispatched every fan favorite in his way; the Hardy Boyz, Rob Van Dam, Hulk Hogan, The Rock, The Undertaker and even Hardcore Holly stepped up and were destroyed. Then, sometime in November, when the leaves are dead and the bad decisions really start to flow, Paul Heyman turned on Brock, transforming Brock into the fan favorite. Literally within seconds Brock changed from the unstoppable monster to this weird dick frat guy who smiled a lot and thought kissing Kurt Angle on the mouth was a funny idea. He never recovered, and now in UFC he's an amalgamation of the two, this big super strong super tough guy who laughs like a bad guy from Final Fight and calls people Mexican as an insult.
Anyway, that's what's happening to Sheamus. Sheamus has been smiling a lot, so much that he's a Kelly away from pointing with one hand and holding a belt over his head with the other, but I won't pretend like I didn't go OH SH*T IT'S SHEAMUS HAHAHA OH SH*T YOU'RE GONNA DIE MCGILLICUTTY YOU'RE GONNA DIEEEEE when Jerry Lawler intro'd his tag partner and Theme From Sheamus hit. I still don't agree with Otunga and McGillicutty being paid to be wrestlers on TV who are only there because you want to tell us how much they suck, but I am 100% on board with Sheamus showing up and Brogue Kicking these worthless dudes into oblivion with minimal effort. Lawler stayed in the ring for about four seconds and somehow got busted open (I'm going to say "being 60" was the reason for that), but he could've sat back down next to JR and let the Great Caucasian Sheamus dispatch do it by himself. Sheamus should be getting his ass handed to him by Mark Henry, but he should let literally no one else hand him a goddamn thing.
I want Lawler and Sheamus to be a permanent tag team, and I want their catchphrase to be "it is great to be white". That's why you hate Otunga, isn't it, Jerry.
Worst: Where Exactly Are You Going With This
I thought Lawler saying MCGILLICUTTY AND OTUNGA, YOUR GAY leading to McGillicutty and Otunga losing the tag titles to a couple of gays like a couple of gays was the end of this story. Then, I thought Lawler teaming up with The Internet's Zack Ryder, lifetime record 1-99, to beat McGillicutty and Otunga in a few minutes was the end of the story. Now we're stuck in a weird thing where McGillicutty and Otunga keep losing, and their only response is to say C'MON JERRY ARE YOU STILL SAYING WE DON'T HAVE PERSONALITY, ARE YOU SERIOUS before Jerry summons a tag partner and squashes them, and I don't know where they're going or how long they're going to take to get there.
What is this accomplishing? You don't need a month to say "these wrestlers are bad, you shouldn't like them", you can just not have them as wrestlers on your show. Worst case scenario, you have them lose to people you want the crowd to cheer for (Space Jam) and disappear. But this, what is this? Is it leading to Jerry getting turned on by one of his tag partners and siding with Mike and Dave to form the New New Nexus? Are we going to have Otunga bring back Skip Sheffield and Darren Young and whoever to beat up Jerry and dismantle the ring again? Is Triple H going to make Michael McGillicutty strip to his bra and panties and bark like a dog? What is happening, and why is it taking so long? Nobody likes this. Do you like this? NOBODY LIKES THIS.
Worst: Never Forget
They should've just played Green Day over a "DID YOU KNOW?" graphic that read "WWE IS THE REASON AMERICA IS STILL A COUNTRY".
Or, they could've just played this.
You're right, Stephanie, the 3,000 people who died in those attacks are just like when the government told your dad to stop giving Hulk Hogan steroids.
Best/Worst: The Most John Cena Match Of All Time
The less said about the Hart/Cena vs. Del Rio/Rodriguez tag match, the better. Like Kingston/Miz, it was fine for what it was trying to be … Cena wanted to fight Del Rio, but he is suddenly a coward (despite beating CM Punk, Rey Mysterio, and John Morrison all right in a row) and tosses helpless little Ricardo to the wolves. Cena beats up Ricardo, Del Rio flees, Bret Hart comes in and gets a sympathy Sharpshooter to make everybody happy. There's nothing wrong with that, I guess, but Jesus, it was the most John Cena thing of all time.
Think about it. Ever since Punk hit and Triple H returned to be COO, they haven't known what to do with Cena, and he's been falling deeper and deeper into realizations that his world is fake. Remember how in The Truman Show the actors don't come up with any real excuses for the strange things Truman is seeing, they're just going about their day and pretending none of it is happening? That's what's going on here. The people around Cena are acting in the most John Cena's Antagonists way possible … Del Rio, a guy who won Money in the Bank AND the Royal Rumble and who retired Edge and Rey Mysterio with straight-up attacking, is doing the thing Cena hates the most: GIVING UP. John Cena does not Give Up. He does not Back Down. Notice how Cena keeps bringing up the rental cars and the fakeness of Alberto, but Alberto never addresses it, he's just like "I DON'T KNOW WHAT CHU TALKING ABOUT CENA, BUT" and changes the subject. By giving up and backing down, Del Rio is sorta trying to rope Cena back into this world of Good vs. Evil and away from the shades of grey and "real names" of CM Punk.
Do you know what John Cena's real name is? It's John Cena.
Best: Bulldogs In The Style Of Jackie Gayda
In case you've never seen it, the worst WWE match in history is still Trish Stratus and Bradshaw against Jackie Gayda and Christopher Nowinski, a match so bad it gave Chris Harvard an irreparable concussion that is highlighted by a bulldog off the second rope so bad that scientists have theorized it may be the first step in unlocking the mysteries of time travel. Watch with gritted teeth as Jackie Gayda, female bodybuilder and Mrs. Charlie Haas, hears "bulldog" and decides to sell it by shaking her hair, falling to her hip and rolling over like she landed on her keys.
The entire thing is a marvel, and if you believe the revisionist history that says Trish Stratus was a great pro wrestler, jump to the three-ish minute mark and watch her execute the world's most convoluted and physically impossible drop toe-hold. The WWE video at the top of the page picks up shortly after Vickie has sold a Kelly Kelly hair-dog in almost the same way, and Kelly needs to do the facial ass-rub next, so she just kinda kicks Vickie into position in the corner.
You don't put Vickie into a match expecting her to be Eddie, and this is no worse than what I've seen Rosa Mendes pull on the reg, so I'm giving it a best. Also, f**king LOL.
Worst, But A Little Best: Oh Hi Jack Swagger
Wait, are we … are we doing something with Swagger and Ziggler finally?
In a running theme for Night Of Champions, Jack Swagger and Dolph Ziggler have been having issues for a month, and it took them nearly six weeks to throw a punch about it. They've both been entered into a fatal fourway match for the United States Championship, where "fatal fourway" is code for "we can't put two heels in a match against each other, but I guess we can spend a month having them argue over personal issues, that's fine". I'm happy that we're finally over that hump, though, and maybe Alex Riley and John Morrison will get eliminated expeditiously and give us an excuse to have the wrestlers who should be wrestling wrestling. Wrestling procedure when it comes to good guys and bad guys is so weird now. The Cleveland Browns play the Pittsburgh Steelers and those teams are rivals, sure, but they don't ONLY play the Steelers, and sometimes they play the f**king Arizona Cardinals, a team they have nothing to do with.
I don't know, bitching about wrestling not being enough like real sports is a hopeless battle, but I feel like wrestling fans could get a lot out of the thing they love if they'd stop having to say "boo" or "woo" for somebody or another during EVERYTHING.
Worst: Beth Phoenix Is Terrible At Strategy
Best: Kelly Kelly Has This All Figured Out
Beth Phoenix's run-in after the Kelly Kelly/Vickie Guerrero is one of the worst executed things I've ever seen. Kelly beats Vickie in about thirty seconds, and I guess maybe Beth was expecting it to go longer and was planning to walk out wringing her hands, maybe she was going to sit backwards in a chair to psyche Kelly out, and then she was going to attack. But whoops, Vickie bit the dust at the negative four minute mark and Beth had to throw on her Shatterstar helmet and hoof it out there. She just sorta ran to the ring and tried to make it through the ropes, got kicked, and just sulked there in the ring while Kelly nonchalantly walked away with the belt. Why don't you TRY AGAIN, Beth? Why not go back out of the ring and run up and punch Kelly in the back of the head? Kelly just doesn't give a f**k, wandering away like it's completely over, because she knows it is. Do something Beth, for the love of God, educate us on how a rough-and-tumble Diva does not instantly give up and become harmless when Kelly Kelly kicks them once.
Seriously, Kelly had a tougher time keeping hair from sticking to her face than she had with Beth.
Best: Mark Henry = Denzel Washington
Josh's "Hall of Fame sounds just like Hall of Pain!" segue aside, how awesome is it to watch Mark Henry calmly talk trash and go HAM on the WWE roster? Okay, I don't see him as Denzel, but I see him as Denzel's buddy, and I hope that's enough for him to give Randy Orton a Worldly Strong Slam at Night of Champions and usher in the Self-Proclaimed Age Of Gorilla. I don't know if I see it happening right now, especially when the announcers are so hell bent on telling us Orton has no chance, but it'd be nice. CM Punk makes claims about being held back despite winning the world championship a handful of times, and here's Mark Henry, an Olympic athlete who has been brought up and sent down and brought up and told to lose weight and sent down and put in a dashiki and a cock vice and his sister's vagina for the last 15 years, waiting for a shot. Henry is sick of it, and he's going to split wigs until he gets what he wants. That's a wrestling character I can get behind.
Although it does sort of devalue his run as ECW Champion. But hey, the other day my friend Mike Ondrick mentioned how being ECW Champion was meaningless because Ezekiel Jackson was ECW Champion, and I typed "that was Bobby Lashley, n00b" before googling it and f**king remembering that Ezekiel Jackson was the ECW Champion. Yeah, that belt wasn't worth the foam they glued silver plating to.

Crafted by nature
Larvikite is the product of minerals melting and mixing under extreme heat and preasure, before slowly cooling down, creating one of the worlds most unique feldspars.
LUNDHS Real Stone – 100% Natural Stone for kitchen work surfaces, originated between the Norwegian fjords and beautiful woods.
After months of harsh winter, the brief Scandinavian summer is a bright, lush and long-awaited time of year.
If you enjoy prepping pastry, pie crusts, and kneading and rolling out dough, a silk finish on your Lundhs real stone surface is the perfect choice for you. In bright daylight the surface will appear soft and subtle, still bringing out the gently sparkling bluish crystals.
Contemporary Scandinavian architecture and open plan living combined, emphasised by bright walls and light reflecting surfaces.
A modern family kitchen is the hub of the household. It's the weekday launch pad and the weekend retreat.
LUNDHS Real Stone has very low water absorption
Areas like countertops, facades and flooring are all surfaces which is exposed to spill and environments that are affected by absorption. The lower value, the higher resitance to frost damages or discolouring from spill of liquids.
LUNDHS Real Stone has a flexural strength suitable for kitchen worksurfaces
Flexural strength (bending strength) is used to decide if a material is suitable for areas where panels are exposed to bending, such as façade panels and countertops. The flexural strength for façade panels should minimum be 10 mpa. Man made materials like Silestone will often have a higher flexural strength than natural stone, making it easier to produce thin worksurfaces.
LUNDHS Reals Stone has good resistance against abrasion (low value means good resistance)
Abrasion resistance is used to decide if a material is suitable for areas such as flooring, stairs or worksurfaces. Low value means good resistance.

Gastric banding was associated with greater weight loss and remission of diabetes compared with standard medical care in type 2 diabetes patients who were overweight but not obese, researchers reported at the World Diabetes Congress. Researchers also found that patients in the gastric-banding arm required less medication and showed better physical quality-of-life measures than did those in the medical-care group. The results suggest that a lower BMI threshold could be considered for the procedure.

Certified Optician Salary
Earnings for Certified Opticians in the United States come in at around $15.86 per hour on average. Residence and years of experience each impact pay for this group, with the former having the largest influence. While more than a third report receiving no health benefits, just under one-half do receive medical coverage, and just under a third have dental, as well. The vast majority of Certified Opticians (83 percent) who participated in the survey are women. Most Certified Opticians report high levels of job satisfaction. The figures in this rundown are based on the results of PayScale's salary questionnaire.

Job Description for Certified Optician
Certified opticians must possess an American Board of Optometry (ABO) board certificate. The certification will demonstrate that they are qualified to provide quality services in their field. These opticians are generally required to have at least a bachelor's degree in a related field. They must keep up with new developments in their industry and use their knowledge to provide high-quality service.Read More...
Certified opticians must work directly with customers to help with frame selection and to provide contact lens services. Since opticians work directly with customers, they must have outstanding customer service skills. They must also have excellent communications, interpersonal, and sales skills. They are required to recommend ophthalmic frames, lenses, and lens coatings. Certified opticians must have an outstanding sense of style since they will recommend various eye glasses frames that are suitable to individual clients' faces. They take clients' frame and contact lenses measurements. Depending on the size of their companies, certified opticians are often required to have thorough knowledge of vision insurance and knowledge of billing for vision plans. Certified opticians prepare work orders for labs. They repair, adjust, and refit eye glasses frames. They must be available to consult with clients and provide instructions on caring for clients' eyeglasses or contact lenses. They maintain displays and inventory of optical merchandise. They may be required to train new opticians.
Certified Optician Tasks
- Design, measure, fit, and adapt lenses for patient according to written optical prescription.
- Adjust frame and lens position to fit patient.
- Prepare work order for optical laboratory containing instructions for grinding and mounting lenses in frames.
- Measure patient for size of eyeglasses and coordinate frames and optical prescription.
Common Career Paths for Certified Optician
Add this chart to your site: 640px 300px
Certified Opticians who go on to become Licensed Opticians may see their salaries climb quite a bit. Median pay for Licensed Opticians is $41K annually. Given that the median pay is $32K, it may be surprising to find that an Optician is the most common role for Certified Opticians to subsequently assume on their way up the ladder. Transitioning into an Optical Manager role — which pays $40K — is also typical for Certified Opticians, though less common by comparison.

Popular Skills for Certified Optician
Overall, survey participants reported applying a fair number of skills to their work. Most notably, facility with Office Management, Sales Management, and Insurance are correlated to pay that is significantly above average, leading to increases of 30 percent, 8 percent, and 7 percent, respectively. Those proficient in Customer Service are, more often than not, also skilled in Technical Sales and Sales Management.
Pay by Experience Level for Certified Optician
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For Certified Opticians, experience does not seem to be a major factor in determining pay. The average inexperienced worker's salary is approximately $29K, and people with five to 10 years of experience bring in more at around $33K on average. Certified Opticians claiming one to two decades of experience make an estimated median of $37K. Folks who have racked up more than 20 years in the field report incomes that aren't that much higher than less experienced individuals' earnings; the veterans make just $38K on average.

Genes aren't necessarily destiny, at least when it comes to mental aging, with research finding that lifestyle accounts for most of how a mind fares in the middle and later years. "This research is extremely exciting as it provides a greater understanding about why mental abilities change throughout our lifetime," said professor James Goodwin of the charity Age UK, which funded the study. "It is also incredibly positive as it suggests that we can have a real influence on how our brain ages through our lifestyle and other external factors."

Hitler and Evolution
Quotable Quote by Sir Arthur Keith
Sir Arthur Keith was a British anthropologist, an atheistic evolutionist and an anti-Nazi, but he drew this chilling conclusion:
'The German Führer, as I have consistently maintained, is an evolutionist; he has consciously sought to make the practice of Germany conform to the theory of evolution.'
Keith, A., Evolution and Ethics, Putnam, NY, USA, p. 230, 1947.
Evolution is supported and endorsed by governments, the media, our major educational institutions and many big businesses. But look at this site and see how much can be achieved with a little effort from God's people in supporting such outreach. Support this site

The big book of virtual team-building games
Quick, effective activities to build communication, trust, and collaboration from anywhere!

ExcerptCHAPTER 1
Virtual Team-Building Games for the Forming Stage
None of us is as smart as all of us.
—Japanese Proverb
The Forming Stage
This is the polite, get acquainted, and "get to know each other" stage. This is where team members begin to figure out who's who, and where everyone fits into the picture. Typically, this takes place at the opening meeting or even an orientation session. For a virtual team, get a head start on this stage by providing the team with each team member's qualifications and background information so everyone has an understanding of why the individuals were chosen for the team.
For traditional teams, the forming stage includes both the actual time spent in meetings and the informal gatherings and discussions in and around the initial meetings. For virtual teams, these informal connections have to be planned for and strategically incorporated early on into team conference calls. The goal is to create an environment that is safe and secure. Because the team also looks for guidance and direction in this stage, the leader must ensure that the team's purpose is clearly communicated and understood by all team members. At this beginning stage, it's essential to get buy-in from all the team members and candidly and honestly identify the pros and cons of teamwork and team building. This stage is where the team builds their foundation, so time well spent in this stage will pay off later.
A Map of Our Team
To build a stronger sense of team identity
To gain a better understanding of the members of the team
Team Size
Landmark Suggestion List provided and available for download at virtualteambuildinggames.com
20 minutes or more
Google Maps, Bing Maps, MapQuest, or other location-or map-based service. Everyone on the team will need an account to use any of these services.
Online collaborative tools give virtual work teams a whole new set of resources for working together and building relationships among members. This activity uses an online location- or map-based service to create an interactive, customized (and private) map that's all about your team and its members.
Shared maps are a great way for team members to visualize where everyone lives and works, and provide opportunities for participants to learn more about their virtual teammates.
We suggest following these steps prior to the team meeting:
1. Assign a unique colored marker or pushpin to each team member.
2. Team members can place their pushpins anywhere on the map to identify landmarks that are related to them.
3. Team members can include as much or as little detail as they would like.
4. Once completed, people can click on the pushpins of their teammates to learn more about them, including fun facts, professionally relevant facts, information that's location-specific, and personal insights.
Landmarks should be as specific as possible and include work- or project-related places. Using the maximum zoom will ensure your pushpin locations are exact. Ideas for landmarks include:
The place you currently work
The location of your corporate headquarters
The location(s) of key vendors, customers, or clients
Ideally, this game should focus on more personal aspects of team members' lives. In order for teammates to really get to know each other, make sure to include some nonwork categories for team members to mark on your shared map. Here are a few suggestions:
Your hometown/where you grew up
The college you attended
A place you would like to live
A place that intrigues you
Sites of the three most significant experiences in your life
A place you have visited several times
The farthest place to which you have ever traveled
The location of your favorite restaurant
Where your child was born
A favorite vacation spot
All the places you have worked
The location of your first job
An easy way to get started: navigate to maps.google.com.
Click on "My places"
Click on "Create new map"
Discussion Questions
1. How does sharing more personal information build a stronger virtual team?
2. Is self-disclosure necessary for a virtual work team? If so, what is the appropriate level of self-disclosure?
3. What are some other things we would like to learn about the members of our team?
4. How does geography play a role in a person's work style?
All About Me
To improve camaraderie and connections
To understand more about the members of the team on a personal level
To build a deeper level of trust on the team

All About Me Guidelines (provided here, and available for download from virtualteambuildinggames.com)
10 to 20 minutes
Email, word-processing document
While this activity is good for any type of virtual team, team members that are working from different time zones can gain a better sense of team by participating in this game. Request that each member of your team create an "All About Me" page (using the guidelines provided; add any other topics that may be of interest or unique to your team). Let them know the purpose of the task is to gain a better understanding of the people who make up the team. After receiving all the individual pages, combine them into one document and email it to all the team members to print out as a reminder of who the people are on their team.
After providing your team with the idea, ask them to submit topics of interest to be included in everyone's "All About Me" documents.
Discussion Questions
No discussion questions are necessary.
All About Me Guidelines
Please create a document to help us to get to know you better. Start with your name and a current picture of yourself. Beneath your picture, complete these sentences.

Receiving a prestigious human rights prize, an Iraqi lawmaker, who gained international attention for her oppressed Yazidi religious minority, decried the Trump administration's "unfair" executive order on immigration.
Whether ISIS is "Islamic," or a "state," it is definitely terrifying. As it terrorizes the Levant — killing Muslims, Christians, Jews, Yazidis, and other religious/cultural minorities in Syria and Iraq — and takes the lives of Western journalists, it strikes fear in the hearts of many.
Swirling around the alarming analysis are the rumors and realities of individuals from Europe and the U.S. joining the ranks of ISIS and fighting for their "cause."
The intelligence organization Soufan Group recently released a report stating that fighters from at least 81 countries have traveled to Syria since its three-year conflict began. Hundreds of recruits come from nations like France, Germany, the UK, and the U.S.
Of all the fearful intimations of this conflict, this feature seems to be the most frightening to many in the West. Could it be that my neighbor is a secret jihadi? Are redheads (a "pure" European stock) more prone to terrorism? Are mosques their hideouts? Regardless of the judiciousness of these questions, underlying them all is the question "why?" Why would someone leave the West to fight for ISIS in Syria and Iraq?
According to the Soufan report, those that leave for the Middle East to fight are typically 18-29 year-old men (some as young as 15) and some Western women who join with their spouses, or come alone to become "jihadi brides." These men and women are Islamic, often second or third generation immigrants, though very few have prior connections with Syria.
Why do they join? Is it religious devotion? Psychological imbalance? Tendency toward radical movements and anarchy? All of these motivations may play a part, but my argument is that these men and women who leave their Western homes for the dunes of terror are lonely.
These Western jihadis are isolated — that is why they join ISIS.

...And I Dance
Hanso SharpEye
Hanso was silent as they gathered the dead Ancients and piled them up to burn. It wasn't a short task to be brushed aside, considering the dead weight of the Ancients. As they finished their task, Zane came around and told the rest of the Gold Tribe what he had learned from his conversation with the three Pokemon. Apparently, the three - Saul, Lashire, and Zara - were from Cape City. They'd been out getting supplies and scouting, and there was a powerful figure in Cape City who knew about the comings and goings of refugees.
There will be a pokemon there who knows all about Cape City.
That had been in the letter that Penance had left behind. Hanso stood and watched the burning Ancients for a few minutes, thinking. He hadn't really considered it before, but could Penance have been out of his mind with leaving for Cape City, or only imagined this Pokemon? Hanso shook his head. No, he was sure Penance was in his normal state of mind at the time. Would a crazy Penance have left the letter? Or contacted the Gallade and spoken normally? For that matter, during their brief mental exchange, the Golduck's mind had seemed normal.
He knows what he's doing.
It was just a matter of
Penance was doing... Hanso gave a brief nod to Bane and the others who had helped pile Ancients, then turned back to the campsite. He took the time to wipe off his hands and arms, then ate a short meal, drawn from the food he'd packed. From the looks of it, Zane would be taking the first watch of the night. Hanso checked on his outer sensors, then mentally placed another set right around the campsite. So the three claimed to be Cape City...scouts, they might be called. Hanso hadn't been around for the conversation itself, so he hadn't been able to gauge their words and actions.
Whether they really were part of Cape City's network - what else could it be? - or were Silver Tribe spies, or maybe even... Hanso had enough doubt in his mind to keep his sensors out, though it would be harder to detect Pokemon that flew overhead or burrowed underground. The sensors were at ground level, after all. Hanso lied down on his sleeping mat, staring up at the stars before drifting to sleep.
"So...what? You're paranoid, now?"
That didn't take long. He glared at his mirror-image as he replied, "Why would I be paranoid? They don't know anything about my plans."
"Oh, yeah, sure, so why'd you set up those sensors? Hm?" The mirror-image folded its arms. "Afraid that they're spies? Or that maybe they'll try to steal everything and leave in the dead of night?"
"Like that'll happen. They're not big enough for tha--"
"And may I remind you of what you've done? She went right ahead and told the other Sentinels, from the sounds of it, even told Auron. Nice how it worked out that his orders kept Sentry from beating all of you to a pulp."
He threw a punch at its face, but the mirror-image dissolved into nothingness, leaving him alone in the room. It was a shade of the white room that the Golduck had set him to learn to empty. At the moment, though, there were a few images swirling around like mist, images of the past few months. The only thoughts that stuck for more than a fleeting moment were of his time in the torturehouse...the poisonous injury he'd gotten from Ignitus...Roswell's betrayal, and Dark Lightning's face...Calamity as well, for that matter...Sovereign charged straight at him, reaching out to slam his prey's head into the ground--
He blasted the mirage-Tyranitar with thrown Psycho Cuts. It disappeared, but the feelings surrounding that event swirled around him. He would return the favor, that was for sure. Yes, such a thing would help the Gold Tribe, but even if they and the Alpha Alliance passed from existence, he would return the favor. Then thoughts of her intruded...she'd broken into his network, but that was nothing, compared to his confused feelings about the Gardevoir. He shouldn't be thinking of her as anything except a Sentinel, an enemy. The few images around him began reflecting their conversation, then their meeting.
Perhaps it was that that made him feel worse, rather than that seed of revenge, which was rather ridiculous. Worse than that was the guilt that came from conversing with the enemy, from what he'd told her of their movements, from what he felt--
Hanso awoke with a start, though he was sure he hadn't uttered a word or cry. It was the dark of pre-dawn, with hardly any light at all. At least he'd been able to hide much of what he'd thought during his meeting with Genevieve. So he thought.
She better hold her part of the deal, and teach me what I need to learn...

The new Nordstrom.com features plenty of customer interaction.
After three years of planning, Nordstrom Inc. has introduced a redesigned e-commerce site.
The site, which went live about a week ago, features bigger and clearer imagery, better site search and other updated features and "Conversation," a new section that gives Nordstrom customers opportunities to post and share content such as comments, photos and videos.
Nordstrom, which did all of the work internally, says the redesign will enable the retailer to better connect with customers. "The site is just much cleaner and more visually appealing than before," says a company spokesman. "Gone is the busy list of links and multiple tabs on the home page. We've made navigating and shopping the site a lot simpler and more fun for the customer."
Nordstrom, No. 29 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide, has expanded its internally developed site search application to give customers more guided navigation. Consumers now can search for products using multiple criteria.
"Because of the way we allow customers to now layer multiple search factors at once—brand, price, different sizes or figure—it takes fewer clicks for the customer to find what she's looking for," the spokesman says. "This all happens in a very dynamic way and everything updates automatically to reflect what's literally available across our entire inventory.
The new home page features only three images and a handful of categories at the top: Department, Brand and Conversation. Nordstrom used customer feedback from e-mails, contact center correspondence and focus groups to create the Conversation section that gives shoppers access to content such as a "Style Forum," where readers can solicit fashion advice from "Miss Nordstrom," a fashion expert. The page also features videos, including from Nordstrom shoppers who give out tips and styles for dressing well at home and on the job.
"Our Conversation section is now a dedicated space for customers to talk about all things fashion with us and with other fans of Nordstrom," says the spokesman.
By including fewer but bigger images on the home page, and by focusing the site navigation on three distinct tabs, Nordstrom sees the new design as way to differentiate itself from other online and multichannel department store and apparel merchants, the company says. "We realized there really hasn't been much innovation the last several years between us and our peers when it comes to site design," the spokesman says. "This is a big step forward for us."
The new product pages feature a cleaner look, tools that let a shopper enlarge a product image and sort merchandise by tabs such as Featured, Newest, Price, Sale and Customer Rating. "Our product pages are much improved," the spokesman says. "We're giving customers better product information and clearer sizing, color and availability details up front. Photos are twice as big as before and displayed in a way that gives the customer a better feel for the merchandise."
Nordstrom also has reported its latest earnings. For the second quarter end July 31, Nordstrom reported:

Pictures of Stourbridge
in the county of West Midlands
About Stourbridge
It is fitting that Stourbridge has been chosen to host the first International Festival of Glass to be held in August 2004 and hopefully, anually from there-on. Worth a visit is Broadfield Glass Museum at nearby Kingswinford. The museum celebrates the very finest of British Glass.
Stourbridge manufactured the famous Stourbridge Lion, the first locomotive to run commercially in the U.S.A. The town is known for miles of lovely canal waterways and old canal warehouses that have fortunately been restored.
There are several places of interest close to Stourbridge and these include; Hagley Hall, a Palladian mansion dating 1754-1760 and built by Lord Lyttleton, Kinver Edge and the Severn Valley Railway at Kidderminster.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I received my DUI in the mail on 4/20/2010. My preliminary hearing is scheduled for the beginning of June. I was in a car accident in which I totaled my car, broke my neck, back, collarbone, and fractured my skull. No one else was hurt and no one's property was hurt. I am hoping to be accepted into the ARD program, but should I wait until my preliminary hearing or should I be applying for it now?? Do I need my attorney to apply for ARD? Or go about it myself? I need some serious guidance as far as this goes so I don't miss out on any deadlines or opportunities.
Hire an attorney today.Go to www.ncdd.com -find a Lawyer for aDUI Attorney near you.You should call Justin McShane for a cousultation.
Victor Carmody
Some counties allow you to make application at the Preliminary Hearing and some will have you fill out an application after the preliminary hearing and submit it to the District Attorney by mail. I am not aware of any county that has you fill out the application before the preliminary hearing. You would be well advised to contact a criminal defense attorney who practices in your county and who is familiar with the local procedures. If you can't find such an attorney here on AVVO then your best bet is to contact the Bar Association in the county where you were arrested and speak with their lawyer referral program.

HTC Takes One On Tour
Article Comments 4
Apr 5, 2013, 9:20 AM by Rich Brome @rbrome
HTC today announced details of the U.S. marketing campaign for its One flagship phone. A major component will be three different kinds of pop-up locations in 11 major markets. HTC BoomSound Lounges open today in major plazas of New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Atlanta. The lounges let consumers experience the One's BoomSound speakers in person, and will host intimate concerts with artists such as Pharrell and Grouplove. Next week, the company will open pop-up stores in major malls in eight cities. The stores consist of a "large, playful, interactive exhibit" that will showcase BlinkFeed, Zoe, and Sense TV. In addition, the company will partner with movie theaters, offering demos of the One in the lobby. The One is available for pre-order today from AT&T and Sprint, shipping April 19th. T-Mobile will offer it "later this spring."

Oh, but the camera
I've seen side-by-side photos from an iPhone (I'm not a fanboy, but they do have a very nice camera) and the HTC.. The HTC does not prevail.
HTC got the camera right years ago on the original Droid Incredible. It had the things you need for good pictures: 8Mpix which was enough for details, but not so much the pics would be addled with noise. That was paired up with a large (relative to other phones) lens. Bigger lens for more light collection, good sensor for pic digitization. Bingo, we have nice photos.

Vermont and Its Little-Known Border Town
... homes are split in the middle by the border. The countries' rule there is that you must leave your home in the country in which you last checked-in.

Several streets are even turned into makeshift dead ends thanks to one metal gate per street separating Canada and the US thus allowing an American resident to say hello to ...
Another day of skiing!
Went skiing with the Reidy's and their cousins. Jay Peak is definitely a must on a skiers list. Some sweet glade skiing for novices. Packed powder. 25 degrees. Barely a breeze. A couple of quads and a tram bought you to the top. Sitting on the Canadian border in northern Vermont, it's quite remote making for small lift lines. It was a four hour ride but the ride back was a bit more interesting with the impending ...

There are several countries among the World Cup qualifiers who – irrespective of football ability – do not seem obvious candidates for holiday exploration. But peer closely, and each has something to recommend it – and a tour operator who can create a suitable trip.
South Korea is a place of rich culture. On The Go Tours dispenses a 12-day "Spectacular South Korea" break (020 7371 1113; onthegotours.com), available on either a group or private basis, which ticks off key sights in Seoul, such as the Buddhist Jogyesa temple, the island Namhae, the south-easterly port of Busan (home to the eighth-century Bulguksa temple) and the peaks of Seoraksan National Park. Prices start at £2,499pp, without flights. Korean Air (0800 413 000; koreanair.com) and British Airways (0844 493 0787; ba.com) compete between Heathrow and Seoul.
Tucked into the torso of Central America, Honduras is short on profile as a holiday zone, but boasts some of the best-preserved Mayan archaeological remains and fine beaches. Journey Latin America (020 3582 6305; journeylatinamerica.co.uk) serves up an 11-day "Highlights of Honduras" jaunt that visits the ruins of Copán – a Mayan citadel that was at its height between the fifth and ninth centuries and is as impressive as any site in Mexico – plus the Caribbean island of Roatán. From £2,714pp, with flights.
Bosnia and Herzegovina's first foray on to football's biggest stage will be another step away from the war that devoured it between 1992 and 1996. However, those who wish to delve into a dark yet important period in recent European history can do so with "The Mystery Explained" – an escorted break run by The Ultimate Travel Company (020 3411 0035; theultimatetravelcompany.co.uk). Leaving Heathrow on 9 April, and based in Sarajevo for four nights, the trip will be led by Major General Andrew Cumming, who served with Nato in the Balkans in 1996. It will examine the collapse of Yugoslavia and will visit other cities ravaged in the conflict, such as Mostar. From £1,495pp, including flights.
Algeria is also an intriguing country for history buffs. It is home to some of the most important Roman ruins in North Africa: Timgad, a many-pillared jewel in the Aures Mountains, for example, and Djemila, with its giant amphitheatre. Both feature on the "Desert and History" tour sold by Responsible Travel (01273 823 700; responsibletravel.com) – as does the capital Algiers and the Mzab Valley in the top reaches of the Sahara. The next edition of this 12-day group jaunt starts on 19 January, from £1,955pp, excluding flights. BA flies from Gatwick to Algiers.
Of Africa's four other World Cup qualifiers, Ghana is the most accessible. Cox & Kings (0845 287 9926; coxandkings.co.uk) is launching a new itinerary for 2014 – "Colours of Ghana", an eight-night tour that absorbs the capital Accra (with its evocative fishing area Jamestown), the uncomfortable echoes of Cape Coast Castle (a 17th-century slave-trade stronghold overlooking the Atlantic) and the tropical rainforest of Kakum National Park. Prices from £2,745 as a group trip, or from £3,535 as a private holiday, including flights.
Ghana's neighbour to the west, Ivory Coast, is a trickier proposition – the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) advises against "all but essential travel" to certain parts of the country. Nonetheless, Intrepid (0845 287 1190; intrepidtravel.com) is planning a 28-day "Freetown to Accra" group odyssey that will set off from Sierra Leone's capital on 23 December next year, dissecting Guinea and Ivory Coast en route to Ghana. The Ivory Coast leg takes in the curious enclave of Yamoussoukro – where the vast yet under-used Basilica of Our Lady of Peace is supposedly the planet's biggest church – and the former French colonial capital Grand-Bassam. The cost of £2,031pp does not include flights, but British Airways flies to Accra non-stop from Heathrow.
The FCO also has concerns about areas of Nigeria, although Undiscovered Destinations (0191 296 2674; undiscovered-destinations.com) insists that the country "has a far worse reputation than it deserves". It will lead a 14-day "Nigeria Discovery" group trip, starting on 6 December 2014, which will dash to the capital Lagos and spend time by the Niger River, one of the globe's great waterways. From £3,099pp, including flights to Lagos.
A destination for the adventurous, Cameroon can be reached on the 12-week "Accra to Cape Town" group trip due to set off from Ghana on 15 January via Oasis Overland (01963 363 400; oasisoverland.co.uk). With hard miles of off-road driving and camping, it will cut through eight other countries before it enters South Africa. The Cameroon section will feature the capital Yaoundé (known for such cultural hotspots as the Cameroon Art Museum), as well as the dramatic arc of Mile Six Beach, near Limbe. From £1,990pp, plus local payment of US$820 (£547), flights extra. BA and Virgin Atlantic (0844 209 7777; virgin-atlantic.com) compete from Heathrow to Cape Town).
Most problematic of the World Cup qualifiers is Iran – the Foreign Office currently warns against "all but essential travel" to the country. What's more, during a demonstration on 29 November 2011 the British Embassy in Tehran was attacked and is now closed, which means you cannot benefit from consular services.
Should you decide to ignore all official advice, the Golden Eagle Danube Express (01462 441 400; danube-express.com), will embark on a 15-day "Jewels of Persia" train ride from Budapest (via Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey) on 14 October. The trip is not cheap – from £8,695pp, full board, not including flights – but it will allow glimpses of the "lost" Mongol city of Soltaniyeh, the epic archaeology of Persepolis and the capital Tehran. For the outbound flight, a wide range of carriers compete between UK airports and Budapest; coming back, Pegasus Airlines (0845 0848 980; flypgs.com) flies from Tehran to Stansted via Istanbul.
