Gemili, Green and Dobriskey in Olympic squad
PUBLISHED: 14:46 03 July 2012
DECA TEXT&BILD SVEDJEGATAN 31 50445 BORÅS 0705-122433 www.decabild.se
Adam Gemili, Jack Green and Lisa Dobriskey selected for Team GB
Kent trio Adam Gemili, Lisa Dobriskey, and Jack Green have been selected for the Team GB squad.
Gemili (100m and 4x100m relay) and Green (400m hurdles, and 4x400m hurdle relay) were widely expected to be in the lineup, but Dobriskey's place in the 1500m event was far from assured.
The Ashford runner made the final of the 1,500m trials last month, after overcoming a life-threatening illness. The former world silver medalist who won gold at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne and silver at the 2009 World Championships in Berlin, clinched her place with a second place finish at the trials in Birmingham, having previously failed to achieve the qualification time.
Young sprinter Adam Gemili burst onto the scene just last month after becoming the fastest British runner this year, and the second ever fastest for his age behind Dwain Chambers. He achieved the Olympic A qualification time for the 100m in Regensburg, in Germany. He beat his personal best of 10.23 in the heats, with a time of 10.11, then ran 10.08 in the final.
Jack Green claimed his place after running the qualification time last month, and finishing second behind Dai Greene in the trials.
Blackheath and Bromley runner Scott Overall had already been selected for the marathon earlier this year.
Team GB Chef de Mission Andy Hunt said: "As we pass the landmark figure of 500 athletes selected to Team GB, I am delighted to announce such a talented and experienced group of track and field athletes added to Our Greatest Team for the London 2012 Olympics today.
"The progress the athletics squad has made since the last Olympics in Beijing is phenomenal. With a record medal haul of nine medals at the World Indoor Championships earlier this year, they have a fantastic opportunity to produce something special as part of Team GB this summer.
"With the likes of World Champions Mo Farah and Dai Greene, World silver medallists Jessica Ennis and Philips Idowu and reigning Olympic Champion Christine Ohuruogu part of the 71 strong squad, Team GB's athletes will be aiming to unite and excite the nation with their performances and create moments in the Olympic Stadium in Stratford that will go down in British Olympic history.
"With the passionate and enthusiastic vocal support of the 80,000 strong home crowd behind them, I have every confidence that our track and field athletes will rise to the occasion and inspire many future generations with their exploits on the track, and in the field."
Head Coach Charles van Commenee said: "I am very proud to have nominated such as strong team of athletes to Team GB. Our collective philosophy since Beijing has been one of raising the bar as we work towards London 2012.
"I believe this team is well prepared to go out there, be competitive and achieve on the greatest sporting stage in front of a home crowd."

>.< damn it now i have to refarm agian for items i deleted im an orc so y do i need swords or maces :/ now i cna xmog them to an axe grrrr dejavu "i had corrupted ashbringer and deleted it cause really couldn't use it i found a better item and they made xmog items now " >.<
No.Class restrictions still apply though--you must be able to equip an item in order to use it for transmog.I did notice they did not mention daggers or fist weapons? They are 1H weapons and are they interchangeable as well, with class restrictions in consideration?
Daggers into Swords yet?
Can anyone confirm if the 2 handed Axe Shadow's Edge can be used for transmog in 5.2?.
Aaaaawww... ;( They got so close to making this an awesome change, but failed just short of the finish line:Polearm <> Staves - Hooray! Finally I can make use of my Pillar of Ferocity again! :DUnfortunately, 2H-Maces </> Polearms/Staves, so still no way to transmog the most awesomesauciest druid weapon ever - Earthwarden. That makes me a saaaaad Panda T4-wearing Tauren. ;(So close, and yet so far...
I'm pretty excited about this. I'm such a transmog %^&*!, and I'm really looking forward to use some of the Polearms for my Staves - Black Ice Here I come
Fists to dags needs to happen. Seems pretty silly that assassination rogues never get to experience how awesome fist weapons can look. Mainhand to Onehand needed to happen though; my void storage is half-full of items that were waiting for this day. :D
Disappointing that Warblade of the Hakkari and Warblade of the Hakkari are retaining their MainHand/OffHand restrictions. I was looking forward to using them again.
so wish they would get rid of class restrictions. they can keep the mat restriction, but for me a druid i like rogue armor way more and geting the look a likes is far and few between compaired to tier drops or what not. all and all a good move in the right direction though.
Blade of Mastery can finally be mogged into 1-hand.EXCELLENT.
must be because death knights can't wield staves...
I didnt see Quel'serrar on the list.. =(
that kind of freedom is pretty sweet.
You left off The Turning Tide from your list of swords. I've been holding onto it since WoTLK Naxx now, just biding my time. I was so crestfallen when it wasn't in your list - but in the PTR version of the site, it's now listed as one handed! hurray! let the other 2 people in the game who like this sword rejoice!
Is it not a bit weird that only staffs can be transformed into pole-arms? can we not just make everything transmoggable and then allow peoples imagination run wild? will require more gametime for those mages who want to have two shards of azzinoth on their back, or that one monk who wants his items to look like hes holding 2 staves
So they are making all these changes to mainhand/offhands, but the Searing Sunblade is still going to be listed as offhand? What the hell?yeah, rogues get sort of screwed here, hopefully they add agility axes/swords/maces for rogues in 5.2. I don't think I ever met anyone in the game who likes using a fist weapon.Fist weapons are the ugliest weapons in the game. It would awful seeing a assasination rogue wearing fist weapons. I'm glad and hoping blizz never makes that change. There are only like 2 or 3 fist weapons that are marginally decent by design. Swords and axes are much better looking.What about Searing Sunblade?
finally :D

by Gray GrahamUnless you have been living under a rock for the past year, you might have noticed that a lot of white people, mainly white men, are not happy with the state of America. From sea to shining sea, from coast to coast, across ideologies; a lot of white people are extremely angry about the changing America. by Gray GrahamComing in 1st is a loss and coming in 3rd is a win, welcome to the spin doctoring of presidential politics. That is how politics work in 2016. by Gray GrahamToday my attention has been drawn to the latest trending topic on social media. You can be forgiven for thinking it had to do with the police killing people or terrorist attacks. No it was about something much more important than that. It was about personal fashion choices. by Gray GrahamCan you have a safe place while you are protesting in a public space? That is what some are claiming in the ongoing protests at Mizzou. We have a case where some Afro Americans are missing the point when it comes to the never-ending fight for equality in the United States of America. by Gray GrahamThis past week will go done as one of the most momentous ones in the history of the United States. One was brought by tragedy, the other was brought by great joy. These events are polar opposites and probably indicate a deep conflict that will continue to evolve in our country. When it comes to our beliefs how much freedom do we actually have? by Gray GrahamThere is nothing like the love of a father. Have you ever seen a woman's eyes light up just from mentioning her father? Have you ever seen a man have a look of awe when remembering his father? Our fathers are our cornerstones in life but it seems many have forgotten the love of a father. by Gray GrahamWe are not all reading from the same books. We have different books on history. We have different books on science. We have different books on economics. We have different books on ethics. We have different books on morality. If you are reading from a book that is different than mine then you are a complete moron. by Gray GrahamA police officer was found not guilty of killing an unarmed African American man and woman by shooting into their car 49 times while standing on the hood of their car and reloading after a chase after their car backfired. Now the Cleveland police department has agreed not to beat people in the head with their guns in an agreement with the Department of Justice. An ultra conservative "journalist" was permanently banned from Twitter for making a death threat to a civil rights advocate. The response from liberals was a fear of Twitter censoring free speech. The Baltimore police said that they would not perform their jobs as police officrs because they are afraid that they will be prosecuted because some police officers have been charged in the death of Freddie Gray. Media outlets questioned why Indian Americans excel at the national spelling bee and why White Americans have no chance to win. The New York Daily News wanted to let us know that Aurora shooter James Holmes loved comedies like Arrested Development and Big Bang Theory and wanted to be arrested before he killed anyone. A group of white supremacists and Neo-Nazis staged an armed protest outside of a Phoenix mosque because Islam is a religion of violence. Only a few of the racist things that occurred this past week. Almost on a daily basis I am asked the question why don't they [what we call White Americans] understand what racism is like in America? Is it because they don't understand or is it because they simply don't care? In our always connected social media world you see interaction, after interaction, that clearly shows there is a disconnect between the majority of White Americans and people of color [everyone else in America that is not White]. by Gray GrahamIt seems like I just wrote a post like this so you will have to forgive me for being a little tired of the subject. I have been writing about this topic basically all my life and nothing has changed. The perception of Black people for most Americans is the same today as it was 200 years ago. by Gray GrahamAmerica is not that far removed from legal segregation and discrimination against people of color. Even today with laws, things are still not equal for those discriminated against in the past. The reason is because for the majority of White Americans they see nothing wrong with the actions of their parents and grandparents in the past and they do not see anything wrong with their actions today. Instead of acknowledging the hate of the past they want you to forget about it and stop talking about it. They simply do not care. by Gray GrahamThanksgiving as a holiday is dead. Sure people will be eating turkey, dressing, green bean casseroles, and a lot of buttery rolls; but it is not a holiday any longer. Americans will only be eating until it is time to do something else and that something else is shopping. by Gray GrahamWe all know I am no stranger to upsetting people. No matter how polite or cordial, I am going to make some people mad. More than a few people have "unfriended" me in the past couple of months because of views I have expressed. So let's clear something up. Sexual assault is one of the most evil and insidious acts a human being can commit. It often goes in hand with the other evil and insidious act of murder. There is nothing more serious. Many people we know, both female and male, have been sexually assaulted and live with that pain every single day. by Gray GrahamThe African American community in America needs to understand that they need to become organized. They need to seek out and find a group of leaders that are willing to fight for the issues that directly impact the African American community. These leaders need to do more than say things ranging from I hate White people to just work really hard and it will all be ok. by Gray GrahamI hope this is the last politics type post, I write for a long time. I care about people. All people. Unlike many people I do not brag about removing people from my life. I do not think I am too smart or dumb that I can not learn from others. I do not love the sound of my own voice. I do not tell people to remove themselves from my life for no other reason than they disagree with me. There is a lot of hate in this country from all sides. There is a lot of hate in this world. There are a lot of sins and evil that we accept as common place. by Gray GrahamUnless you have been living under a rock, you probably know that the NFL has been having a bad PR time lately. Thanks to outrage over domestic violence charges against a few of its players in recent weeks, they have been bombarded with outrage from a lot of people. Last week I called this faux outraged because it really is not based on any common sense. I saw a lot of things said this past week and one that really stood out was someone saying it was the NFL's job to protect the wives and children of NFL players from violence. Really? It is also Google's job to make sure that their employees don't cheat on their wives and do drugs? by Gray GrahamIn her own words Mrs. Rice calls the attention they have received unwanted. If you have followed me any amount of time you know over the years I have talked about domestic violence a lot. I have done podcasts. I have wrote blog posts. I have worked with women that work with abused families; trying to help them survive because they have no help. I have made social media posts in the past pleading with everyone to please be there for those in need when it comes to domestic abuse. by Gray GrahamThis is going to be one of those posts that is going to get me in trouble, not because I am saying anything that is wrong or incorrect, I am just going to talk about a hard truth that some just do not want to acknowledge because it does not match up with their world view. If you look around there is a lot of that going on across the world today. by Gray GrahamFor the past week a lot people decided that it was funny that someone did not know how to read. Doesn't matter who the person is the mere fact that it was viewed as being humorous says about all you need to know about America and our country. by Gray GrahamIf you have followed me at all over the years you might have noticed that I write about racism and bigotry a lot. In fact too much for a lot of people. No not KKK card carrying members or Tea Party racism, but African Americans; forgive me, Black people. More specifically successful Black people. by Gray GrahamI have been told many times by some that I come off harsh to single mothers. To some I do not understand their plights and circumstances. I do not sympathize with how they feel. All of these things are true. by Gray GrahamThere are few words misused or overused as the word leader. So let's first look at the definition of the word leader. The Oxford dictionary defines leader as "the person who leads or commands a group, organization, or country." by Gray GrahamWith all the talk of civil rights and freedom the past couple of weeks I thought it would be interesting to discuss the most hated individuals on the planet. Now we all know that Africans and their descendants are the most discriminated people on the planet going on 500 years strong but they are not the most hated. No that honor goes to the American White male. by Gray GrahamIt seems like a lot of American Christians are having a difficult time this Independence Day and probably have been having a difficult decade. America has undergone a strong cultural shift many call a cultural war over the years and a lot of Christians feel that America has lost its moral compass. It has become difficult for many to just go about their lives. They feel threaten by those ungodly people trying to destroy their way of life. |

Montgomery Scott
this wiki
Captain Montgomery Scott (often referred to as Scotty by his shipmates) was a male Human Starfleet officer in the 23rd century. His serial number was SE 19754 T. For a period of nearly thirty years, he was the chief engineer of both the USS Enterprise and the USS Enterprise-A, both under the command of Captain James T. Kirk. Having the reputation as a "miracle worker", he was a man of superior technical and engineering skill, experience and ingenuity. Despite his superior talents as an engineer, he was often the source of comic relief among the Enterprise crew due to his use of Scots language. (TOS: "Wolf in the Fold", "Where No Man Has Gone Before", "The Trouble with Tribbles", "The Doomsday Machine", "The Savage Curtain"; Star Trek III: The Search for Spock; Star Trek V: The Final Frontier; Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country; TNG: "Relics")
Early life and career Edit
Montgomery Scott was born in Scotland on Earth in 2222. (TNG: "Relics") He spent part of his life in Aberdeen, once referring to himself as an "old Aberdeen pub-crawler." (TOS: "Wolf in the Fold")
Upon being asked how he adjusted to space travel, Scott once admitted, "I was practically born to it." (TOS: "The Lights of Zetar") He joined Starfleet and began his engineering career in 2241. During his 51-year career in Starfleet, he served on a total of eleven ships, including various freighters, cruisers and starships. (TNG: "Relics") He also briefly served as an engineering advisor on the freight line between the Deneva colony and the outlying asteroid belts. (TNG: "Relics"; TOS: "Operation -- Annihilate!")
He was the writer of several technical manuals, which included Operating Protocol - Flow Sensors. A copy of this manual was stored in the Engineering Systems Database aboard the USS Enterprise-D in 2366. (TNG: "Booby Trap") He was also responsible for writing Starfleet Regulation 42/15, entitled "Pressure Variances in IRC Tank Storage", which was part of the basic operational specifications for impulse engines. These specifications were admittedly written "a wee bit" conservatively. (TNG: "Relics")
The five-year mission Edit
In 2265, Scott was assigned to the USS Enterprise where he served as second officer and chief engineer under Captain James Kirk. (TOS: "Where No Man Has Gone Before") The Enterprise was the first ship on which he was the chief engineer. (TNG: "Relics")
His duties also included maintenance and operation of the Enterprise's transporter systems. Three of his top engineers included Lieutenants Kyle, Leslie, and Gabler. He was understandably upset when Harper, an assistant engineer who was one of only twenty crewmembers selected to remain aboard the Enterprise during the M-5 multitronic unit test mission, was killed by an energy transfer beam used by the insane supercomputer to draw power directly from the ship's warp engines. (TOS: "The Ultimate Computer"; TAS: "One of Our Planets Is Missing", "The Terratin Incident")
As the ship's second officer, Scott assumed command when both Kirk and Spock left the ship, or they both were incapacitated. Thus, he often faced critical diplomatic and military situations. (TOS: "A Taste of Armageddon", "Journey to Babel", "Friday's Child", "Bread and Circuses", "A Piece of the Action") In 2268 Kirk noted him to commendation for his outstanding command performance without disobeying the Prime Directive and saving the landing party on planet 892-IV. (TOS: "Bread and Circuses") However in 2267, Kirk jokingly "fired" Scott when he couldn't repair the ship's engines and break out of orbit around Gamma Trianguli VI. After the destruction of Vaal Kirk immediately "re-hired" him. (TOS: "The Apple") Despite being a capable command officer he never pursued his own command post because he "...never wanted to be anythin' else but an engineer." (TNG: "Relics")
By the late 2260s, Scott knew more about the warp engines aboard a Constitution-class starship than the men who designed them. (TOS: "The Apple") This knowledge and ability to save the ship in a jam eventually led to his reputation aboard the Enterprise as a "miracle worker." This was brought about by his reputation for being able to effect starship repairs faster than usually required. Scott later admitted that he often padded his estimates of time needed for repairs by a factor of four in order to appear that much faster. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock; TNG: "Relics")
In 2268, Scott stated that he knew the Enterprise better than Larry Marvick, the man who designed the starship. When Marvick visited the ship, escorting the Medusan Ambassador Kollos, Scott made a bet, that he won't find his way around the engine room. When Scott allowed him to the warp engine controls, Marvick, under the madness brought on by the sight of the Medusan, attempted to take over the vessel, and hurled it into the void surrounding our galaxy. (TOS: "Is There in Truth No Beauty?")
In 2267, Scott was attacked and killed by Nomad, a probe originally launched from Earth in the early 21st century. Kirk was distraught by the death of his valued chief engineer, but Nomad informed Kirk that Scott could be "repaired" and the probe revived Scott in sickbay. Later, Scott assisted Kirk and Spock in beaming Nomad out into open space before it exploded from Kirk talking it to death. (TOS: "The Changeling")
Later in 2267, Scott was thrown against a bulkhead of the Enterprise during an explosion. This resulted in a severe concussion and possible amnesia. He was ordered to take time off for therapeutic shore leave on the planet Argelius II. While on Argelius he got into "a wee bit of trouble," as he later described it, when he was accused of murdering an Argelian woman named Kara. Scott's situation worsened when he was accused of two more murders, those of another Argelian, Sybo, and fellow officer Karen Tracy. Scott was later acquitted of the murder charges, following the discovery of a non-humanoid lifeform called Redjac in the form of Mr. Hengist, who was found to be responsible for the murders, and who admitted to being Jack the Ripper and other serial killers in previous incarnations. (TOS: "Wolf in the Fold"; TNG: "Relics")
Scott was extremely proud of the Enterprise. In fact, he was so proud that he once started a bar fight aboard Deep Space Station K-7 when the Klingon named Korax suggested that the ship should be hauled away as garbage. As a result, he was confined to his quarters by Kirk. Scott smiled and told Kirk the punishment would give him a chance to catch up on technical journals he had not had time to read. Shortly after the incident at K-7, Scott managed to rid the Enterprise of the tribbles which had infested the ship. Much to the pleasure of Captain Kirk, Scott, in collaboration with Spock and McCoy, beamed the tribbles aboard the IKS Gr'oth where they would be "no tribble at all". (TOS: "The Trouble with Tribbles")
In 2268, Scott helped Kirk, Spock and McCoy regain control of the Enterprise after the ship was invaded by agents of the Kelvan Empire and set on a course to the Andromeda Galaxy. Before leaving the Milky Way Galaxy, Scott and Spock devised a plan to destroy the Enterprise at the galactic barrier, but Kirk decided against it. Later Scott tried to incapacitate the Kelvan agent Tomar by drinking various alcoholic beverages with him. He got Tomar so drunk that the alien passed out, but his plan was foiled when Scott passed out before he could leave his quarters. (TOS: "By Any Other Name")
In the same year the Enterprise was hurled hundreds of light years away from a Kalandan outpost, and sabotage accelerated the ship to dangerously high warp speeds. Scott risked his life by entering the access crawlspace to the matter-antimatter reaction chamber to repair the fused matter-antimatter integrator, a procedure so dangerous that it was not to be undertaken while the integrator was in operation. When a faulty magnetic probe nearly ruined the procedure, Scott demanded that Spock eject him from the chamber into space, but Spock risked critical seconds to allow the engineer to successfully complete his task. (TOS: "That Which Survives")
In 2268, Scott's position as second officer and chief engineer required him to participate in executing the auto-destruct sequence to prevent Bele from hijacking the Enterprise to return Lokai to the planet Cheron. (TOS: "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield") Scott also threatened the female Romulan Commander that he would use the auto-destruct to destroy the Enterprise and "as many of you as we can take with us" when it was surrounded by Romulan vessels during its espionage mission to appropriate the Romulans' cloaking device. (TOS: "The Enterprise Incident")
Also, in 2268, Scott prevented Garth of Izar from escaping the Elba II asylum to board the Enterprise when he challenged Garth, who, in the guise of Kirk, had attempted to order Scott to transport him to the ship, by requiring Garth to provide the countersign to the prearranged chess problem. (TOS: "Whom Gods Destroy")
Scotty was romantically involved with Starfleet sciences division specialist Lieutenant Mira Romaine at least when she was aboard the Enterprise during its mission to Memory Alpha. Scott figured prominently in the successful attempt to prevent Romaine's body from being appropriated by the Zetarians. In carrying her occupied person to McCoy's decompression chamber, Scott insisted to Kirk, "Mira will not hurt me." Nevertheless, he was thrown across the room by their influence. (TOS: "The Lights of Zetar")
Scotty complained to Kirk that "one of those barefoot whaddyacallems" had entered Engineering and "tried to incite my crew to disaffect". (TOS: "The Way to Eden")
In 2268, Scotty was present in the transporter room along with Kirk, Spock and Lieutenant Dickerson when Presidential honors were rendered to the Excalbian who had taken the form of U.S. President Abraham Lincoln. He scoffed in suggesting sarcastically that "Lincoln" would be followed by "...[King] Louis of France and [fourteenth-century King of Scots] Robert the Bruce!" (TOS: "The Savage Curtain")
Later career Edit
In 2270, Commander Scott played an instrumental role in the massive refit of the USS Enterprise while serving under Captain Will Decker. (Star Trek: The Motion Picture)
In March 2285, Scott was a participant in Saavik's Kobayashi Maru scenario at Starfleet Training Command. Though not present on the bridge simulator, his voice was heard on the speakers. After the scenario, he served aboard the Enterprise under the command of Captain Spock. He was the ship's chief engineer for a three week training cruise. Upon receiving a call for help from Regula I, Starfleet Command ordered an investigation by the Enterprise. With Rear Admiral Kirk assuming command, the cruise was cut short. The Enterprise became involved with Project Genesis and Khan Noonien Singh's attempt to steal the Genesis Device. Eventually, Kirk was able to stop Khan, but not before the latter had wrought extensive damage upon the Enterprise, requiring Captain Spock to sacrifice his life to save the ship. One of the casualties was Scott's nephew Peter Preston. Scott played the bagpipes at Spock's funeral. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)
With the Enterprise safely at Spacedock, Scott was promoted to captain and reassigned to the USS Excelsior as Captain of Engineering during the ship's early test runs. Scott detested his assignment aboard the Excelsior, citing the ship as little more than a "bucket of bolts", and didn't particularly care for Captain Styles either. He later sabotaged the Excelsior, removing components from her transwarp computer drive. This prevented the ship from jumping to transwarp drive when the Enterprise was stolen for an unauthorized mission to the Genesis planet.
When arriving at the Genesis planet, a Klingon Bird-of-Prey ambushed the Enterprise and opened fire, disabling Scott's automation system and leaving the ship as "a sitting duck". Scott, along with Kirk and Chekov, initiated the Enterprise's auto-destruct sequence to prevent it from falling into Klingon hands. The crew beamed down to the planet, where they watched their beloved ship burn up in the atmosphere. This would later in life affect Scott emotionally, when he comments that the Enterprise was "his home and where he had a purpose". (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock; TNG: "Relics")
In 2286, Scott traveled back in time to 1986 along with the rest of the Enterprise crew to find a pair of humpback whales. In order to construct a water tank for them, he visited the Plexicorp facility as "Professor Scott" from Edinburgh. Making a deal with plant manager Nichols he gave him the formula of transparent aluminum in exchange for a sheet of plexiglass. When Dr. McCoy objected against "changing the future," Scott pointed out "How do we know he didn't invent the thing?". After returning home, he was reassigned as chief engineer of the newly commissioned USS Enterprise-A. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home) For three weeks, after a shakedown cruise, the flaws in the starship's systems were being identified and repaired under the supervision of Scott. (Star Trek V: The Final Frontier)
Scott played a role in exposing the Khitomer conspiracy in 2293. Upon beaming down to the surface of Khitomer, he shot Colonel West, who was about to assassinate the Federation president and kill Lieutenant Valeris, out of a window and several stories to his death. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
Retirement Edit
In 2293, Scott obtained a boat in anticipation of his retirement from the Enterprise-A. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
Scott appeared as a "guest of honor" along with his former commanding officer, James T. Kirk, and his old crewmate, Commander Pavel Chekov, for the maiden voyage of the new Excelsior-class USS Enterprise-B, commanded by John Harriman. When the Enterprise-B responded to the distress call from two El-Aurian transports, Scott assisted in beaming a small group of survivors on board – 47 out of a total of 150. When the Enterprise became trapped in the energy ribbon the transports were in, Scott formulated a theory to use an antimatter discharge to disrupt the ribbon long enough for the vessel to break away. After Captain Kirk modified the deflector relays to emit a resonance burst, Scott and Hikaru Sulu's daughter Demora were able to get the Enterprise clear. However, a hull breach was created on the secondary hull by the ribbon on the ship's way out and Kirk was presumed to be blown out into space. Upon being asked by Commander Chekov if anyone was in the deflector control room on deck 15 when it was hit, Scott stared out the breach into space and solemnly stated "Aye". (Star Trek Generations)
In 2294, following his retirement from Starfleet, Scott traveled aboard the USS Jenolan to the Norpin colony, where he planned to spend his retirement. The Jenolan, however, encountered a Dyson sphere en route, and while attempting to investigate it, the transport crashed on its surface. Scott and fellow engineer Matt Franklin were the only survivors. Together they rigged the Jenolan's transporter systems, and existed for nearly 75 years in the ship's transporter buffer. (TNG: "Relics")
In 2369, Montgomery Scott was rescued by the USS Enterprise-D, but Franklin's pattern was too degraded to be recovered. After Scott helped rescue the Enterprise-D from the Dyson sphere, Captain Picard rewarded him with the Enterprise's shuttlecraft Goddard. (TNG: "Relics")
Sometime before 2387, Montgomery Scott discovered the necessary formulas enabling transwarp beaming, which Spock later gave to a younger Scott in 2258 of the alternate reality. (Star Trek)
Family and personal life Edit
Scott had at least one sister, whose youngest child, Peter Preston, served aboard the Enterprise in 2285 as a midshipman during a Starfleet Academy training cruise. Preston was killed when the Enterprise was attacked and severely damaged by the USS Reliant in a surprise attack by Khan Noonien Singh. Scott was grief-stricken after the tragedy. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)
Scott had a love for good Scotch whisky, often making references to drinking or frequenting drinking establishments on more than one planet, even referring to himself once as an "old Aberdeen pub-crawler." (Star Trek V: The Final Frontier; TOS: "Wolf in the Fold") He considered Scotch a drink for real men as opposed to, for instance, vodka which he referred to as "sodapop" and "milk diet". (TOS: "The Trouble with Tribbles")
He took shore leave reluctantly, and ran into trouble during shore leave on at least three occasions: a fistfight on Deep Space Station K-7, (TOS: "The Trouble with Tribbles") an arrest for murder on Argelius, (TOS: "Wolf in the Fold") and a "wee bout" requiring Dr. McCoy's attention. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)
He also played bagpipes, most notably playing "Amazing Grace" at the funeral for Captain Spock in 2285. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan) He was also fascinated to be handling an old fashioned Scottish claymore. (TOS: "Day of the Dove")
Friendships Edit
Romantic relationships Edit
Although a gentleman at heart, life as an engineer for Scott was often lonely, as he often attempted to pursue hopeless relationships with much younger female officers that were often perceived as being out of his league.
Scott was first attracted to Carolyn Palamas and reacted bitterly to the Greek god Apollo's infatuation with her. (TOS: "Who Mourns for Adonais?")
While under the influence of Harry Mudd's love potion crystals, Scott briefly became interested in M'Ress. After the effects wore off, he snapped at her during his hangover. (TAS: "Mudd's Passion")
Scott later became infatuated with the newly transferred Mira Romaine in 2269. (TOS: "The Lights of Zetar")
Years later, Commander Uhura began to show some romantic interest in Scott while she was under Sybok's influence. Scott politely declined her advance mindful of her condition. Their relationship was never pursued. (Star Trek V: The Final Frontier)

Background information Edit
Montgomery Scott was played by actor James Doohan in all of the character's television and cinematic appearances set in the "prime" universe.
The character of Scotty mostly originated from James Doohan himself. Doohan was asked by Director James Goldstone, to whom he auditioned for another role only ten days prior, to come in and read a few lines from the script of TOS: "Where No Man Has Gone Before" for him, Gene Roddenberry, Robert Justman, Joseph D'Agosta and Morris Chapnick. The role he was proposed for was an unnamed Chief Engineer. Goldstone asked him to do some accents, while Doohan did several ones, including Irish, Scottish, English, Russian, etc. Roddenberry asked him which one he would choose, and he said Scottish, due to Scotsmen being renowned for having great engineering skills. Thus, the character became Scottish, and it was apparently Doohan who named him "Scotty". (The World of Star Trek), [2]
Gene Roddenberry nearly dropped Scott from the series after the second pilot. He informed Doohan's agent, Paul Wilkins, that "we don't think we need an engineer in the series". Wilkins became irate and met with Roddenberry that day, and insisted on returning Doohan to the Enterprise, which turned out to be a favorable decision. (Inside Star Trek: The Real Story, pp 152-153)
NBC's early-1966 press brochure about Star Trek described Scott thus:
- Engineer Officer Scott is a wizard at repairing everything from the reading light on the captain's bunk to the ship's huge "space warp" engines. In an era of almost complete automation, his ability to fix things with a piece of baling wire or a rubber band has proven invaluable on more than one occasion. (reprinted in Inside Star Trek: The Real Story)
In the final draft script of TOS: "Mudd's Women" (dated 26 May 1966), Scott was described as "40... very military type." This suggests he was born in 2226.
The series writer's guide (third revision, dated 17 April 1967) described the character thus:
- ENGINEERING OFFICER MONTGOMERY SCOTT: Played by James Doohan, Scott holds the rank of lieutenant commander, senior engineering officer on the U.S.S. Enterprise. With an accent that drips of heather and the Highlands, he is known to most as "Scotty".
- Scotty came up through the ranks, and his practical education is as broad as his formal training in engineering. He has rare mechanical capacity - many claim he can put an engine together with baling wire and glue... and make it run. He regards the U.S.S. Enterprise as his personal vessel and the engineering section as his private world, where even Captain James Kirk is merely a privileged trespasser.
- Engineering and spaceships are his life. His idea of a pleasant afternoon is tinkering in any engineering section of the vessel; he is totally unable to understand why any sane man would spend reading time on anything but technical manuals. He is strong minded, strong willed, and not incapable of telling off even a Starfleet captain who intrudes into what Scotty regards as his own private province and area of responsibilities. (Star Trek: The Original Series 365)
Although Doohan had lost the middle finger on his right hand during the Allied invasion of Normandy on D-Day, Scott had a right middle finger within the Star Trek storyline; any time a closeup was seen of Scott's right hand (working the transporter controls, etc.), someone else's hands were used, and when Scott appeared in wide shots, he usually hid his right hand from the camera. His loss was most evident in TNG: "Relics", where the missing finger can be clearly seen in wide shots while talking to Captain Picard on the holodeck recreation of the original Enterprise bridge and in Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, when Scotty is holding a bag of food.
There was much debate, especially in Scotland, as to which Scottish city Montgomery Scott was born in. The character once described himself as an "Aberdeen pub crawler" in TOS: "Wolf in the Fold". Confusing the matter was a 1970s interview with James Doohan in which he stated his belief that Scott came from Elgin, a town forty miles west of Aberdeen. Linlithgow, twenty miles west of Edinburgh has also been vocal in its claim, citing D.C. Fontana's novel Vulcan's Glory. If either of these claims were correct, it would imply Scott had a relatively genteel upbringing, as the regional accent of Aberdeenshire was far more coarse and Gaelicised than Scott's. On the death of James Doohan, the local West Lothian Council announced plans to open a memorial exhibition for James Doohan in Linlithgow to commemorate his contribution to the Star Trek universe and make the town's claim to be the future birthplace of Montgomery Scott concrete. The exhibition, held at Annet House, Scott's "official" future childhood home opened in the summer of 2007. It was worth noting that in the non-canon story published in the UK comic magazine TV21 & Joe 90 #21 in 1970, Scott described his ancestors as "highlanders". According to Who's Who in Star Trek #2 (DC Comics, April 1987), Scott was born in Glasgow. His actual accent implied he was raised in or near Edinburgh.
Simon Pegg, who portrayed Scotty's alternate self in 2009's Star Trek and its sequels (and was a Star Trek fan long before being cast in the role), concocted his own backstory for the character to settle the debate over the character's accent. [3]
One inconsistency that involved Scott was that, when the USS Enterprise-D rescued him from the transporter buffer of the USS Jenolan in "Relics", Commander William T. Riker said that he was from the "USS Enterprise". Hearing this, Scott assumed "Jim Kirk himself" had arrived to find him; however, the film Star Trek Generations established that, before Scott embarked on his trip on the Jenolan, he witnessed Kirk get blown off the Enterprise-B, and though not known to him, into the Nexus, so he should have known Kirk wasn't alive to be able to find him. This was caused by the fact that the movie Star Trek Generations was filmed after "Relics", causing a retcon. (In what may have been an attempt to address the discrepancy, in the novelization of Generations, Guinan tells Chekov that Kirk is, in fact, alive within the Nexus, though this information may not have reached Scotty.) According to Ronald D. Moore, who wrote both "Relics" and Generations, Scott was included in the latter, despite the inconsistency, out of affection for the character. (Star Trek Chronology)
Another minor inconsistency could be spotted in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, where Scott wears uniforms with commander's insignia instead of captain's.
In an ultimately omitted line of dialogue from the final draft script of "Relics", Scott remarked, "Even starships are retired... some are just lucky enough to die in action."
Evidently, Scott was obliquely referred to in the final draft script of ENT: "Fallen Hero". A statement made by Charles Tucker III, regarding the warp reactor aboard Enterprise, was attributed to him in the scripted stage directions. The dialogue was, "I've given you all she's got, Captain! There's no more power!" A scene description about this section remarked, "His words foreshadow another fabled Starfleet engineer."
In the unfilmed Star Trek: The First Adventure script, Scott was depicted as working with George Kirk on an experimental dilithium-fuelled warp jump before his disappearance.
With the introduction of Scott's origin story in the alternate reality, several novels set in the prime reality detail Scott's origins there:
According to Star Trek II: Biographies, Scott was born in 31 August 2121 in Aberdeen, Scotland to parents Robert Burns Scott and Mary Darnley. He has a brother named James McNeil Scott and a sister named Mary Darnley Scott.
According to Who's Who in Star Trek 2, Scott was born in Glasgow, Scotland and has a sister named Fran. He spent a year working aboard the SS Deirdre before applying to Starfleet Academy. He became the Enterprise's chief engineer after the previous chief engineer Hoyt retired.
The short story Strange New Worlds VI names his mother Arlyne Jorgensen Scott and his sister Kristen Scott.
In the novel The Kobayashi Maru, Cadet Scott less-than-voluntarily entered the Command School at Starfleet Academy, but was reassigned to Engineering after a Kobayashi Maru attempt in which he defeated a Klingon squadron using a tactic which he knew the the computer would believe to be viable even though field testing that he had participated in had disproved the theory on which the tactic was based. His position as captain in the scenario was arranged by an instructor who knew that Scotty wanted to be in Engineering rather than Command to justify transferring Scotty to Engineering school.
In the D.C. Fontana novel Vulcan's Glory, in 2253, Lieutenant Scott signed aboard the Enterprise as a junior engineer under Lieutenant Commander Caitlin Barry. In his early days aboard the ship he set up a still in main engineering for producing Engine Room Hooch. Despite the popularity of the beverage, it was produced by an illegal still, and Scott along with the other engineers were warned never to produce the beverage again.
In the novel Enterprise: The First Adventure, by 2264, Scott assumed the responsibilities of being chief engineer and was promoted to lieutenant commander under the command of Captain James T. Kirk. Scott was fiercely loyal to Captain Christopher Pike and initially he did not warm up to Kirk as he felt that the young captain could place the ship in jeopardy. Over time, the two officers put their initial differences behind them and became close friends.
In the comic issue Retrospect, Scotty had an on-again, off-again relationship with a woman he'd known all his life named Glynnis Campbell (β). The comic tells the story of how they met and fell in love, went their separate ways, and eventually got married years later. They married shortly before the events of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, and she died in a shuttle accident during the Enterprise crew's period of exile on Vulcan. The Star Trek: Department of Temporal Investigations novel Forgotten History gives her credit for inspiring him to grow a mustache.
By the novel Ship of the Line, Scotty has become a teacher at Starfleet Academy, but stands in as a temporary chief engineer aboard the USS Enterprise-E for its inaugural voyage under Morgan Bateson.
The Star Trek novelization has Spock revealing that the Prime Scott was also stationed at Delta Vega, which Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman stated on the film's audio commentary were meant to be for the same reasons.
In the Starfleet Corps of Engineers novels, Scotty was given command of the unit sometime after his retrieval from the Jenolan.
In Star Trek Online, players encountered Scotty on Drozana Station in the year 2265, helping him protect the station from an infestation of Devidians. He plays a major role in the "Agents of Yesterday" expansion pack, in which he is voiced by James Doohan's son Christopher Doohan, who had previously played the role in the fan series Star Trek Continues.

In October, Sean Rawlings jumped on the opportunity to play in the SEC and chose Mississippi State. The Bulldogs had extended a scholarship offer only days prior, but Rawlings wasn't going to waste the chance. Schools like Arkansas State and Louisiana Tech were the only schools nibbling before that time.
His October decision was made even more interesting considering Rawlings had attended every Egg Bowl since his toddler days–as an Ole Miss fan.
"I've been to nearly ever Egg Bowl since I could probably walk … but as an Ole Miss fan," Rawlings told Saturday Down South right before the game. "So that'll be the most interesting thing for me is cheering on the Bulldogs (Thanksgiving week). I couldn't be more excited."
Well, Rawlings won't have to root for those Bulldogs after all. This weekend, the Rebels finally came through with a scholarship offer for Rawlings, and he pounced on it. Now he won't have to have a family divided. Rawlings is 6-foot-5, 305-pounds and is out of Madison (Miss.). He is rated a three-star prospect.

Hey guys,
Due to some financial pressure, I need to sell my favorite balanced DAC/amp, KKmaster. This famous Chinese top class balanced DAC/amp needs no further introduction (if you are familiar with it ).
Most musical solid-state amp I ever heard, incredibly balanced sound. For a classical music fan you can't find better DAC/amp combo below the $2500 price tag.
The unit uses 117V US voltage, so no voltage convertor is needed.
Price includes shipping (with insurance and request signature) in Con US for the unit (MSRP around $1800). The unit is about 6 kg, so will not ship internationally at the moment.
Please send me a PM if you are interested. Thanks for looking.

We know that Asians are worst hit. But African Americans don't benefit either:
It turns out the Ivy League's racial diversity stats are only half the story. People in search of egalitarianism at places like Harvard and Columbia shouldn't just be asking what color students are, but where they're from, too.
Call it the Ivy League's dirty little secret: While America's most elite colleges do in fact make it a point to promote ethnic diversity on their campuses, a lot of them do so by admitting hugely disproportionate numbers of wealthy immigrants and their children rather than black students with deep roots—and troubled histories—in the United States.
"Very few black students [at Harvard] were able to be categorized under the term 'just black,'" says Joy Alison Cooper. Cooper graduated from Harvard in 2006 and is now a Fogarty Scholar doing clinical research in Nairobi, Kenya. "There was an overrepresentation of Africans," she says, "and specifically Nigerians. Nigerians were so numerous that in my senior year, my best friend helped start the Nigerian Students Association."
The statistics are striking: Though African immigrants, many of them from Nigeria and Ghana, make up less than 1 percent of America's total population, first- and second-generation black immigrants comprise 41 percent of all black students at Ivy League schools, according to 2007 research from teams at Princeton and Penn. Another study, this one published in Sociology of Education in 2009, found that immigrant blacks attended select colleges at almost four times the rate of native-born African Americans. Outside of the Ivy League, almost 44 percent of African immigrants graduated from a four-year college, compared to just 18 percent of native blacks.
None of this would matter if black Americans and their immigrant counterparts were gunning for the Ivies from a level playing field. But they're not. Data shows that African immigrants, Nigerians in particular, are far wealthier and more highly educated than many Americans of any race. In 2000, when the median household income for African Americans was about $30,000, the median income for Nigerian immigrant families was more than $45,000 (PDF). Where education is concerned, in 2007, African immigrants were likelier to have obtained a college or graduate degree than any other immigrant population, and 20 percent likelier than the U.S. population as a whole.
The best-known poster child for the Ivy League's "diversity" is, of course, our "African-American" president, whose father was Kenyan and mother was white.

Pity for Wii owners, then, that you won't be seeing it. A Blactivision PR rep has told MTV: Advertisement Due to technical or licensing restrictions, the DLC offerings will not be the same for every console platform. For example, certain artists prefer to keep the integrity of the track pack rather than releasing singles and the Wii's infrastructure only allows us the ability to release single songs as DLC.

Sync: Stsadm operation (Office SharePoint Server)
Updated: March 22, 2007
Applies To: Office SharePoint Server 2007
Topic Last Modified: 2007-04-25
Configures the Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 synchronization job. Normally, this operation is used in conjunction with the preparetomove operation.
stsadm -o sync
-excludewebapps <Web applications>
-synctiming <schedule>
-sweeptiming <schedule>
-listolddatabases <days>
-deleteolddatabases <days>
Parameter | Value | Required? | Description | ||
excludewebapps | A valid URL, such as "http://server_name" | Yes | Comma-delimited list of Web application URLs to exclude from consideration in the synchronization process. The values specified delete any existing values set. | ||
synctiming | Yes | Sets the schedule for the main synchronization job. "M" denotes every n minutes (for example, "m:5" means every 5 minutes). "H" denotes every n hours (for example, "h:1" means every 1 hour). "D" denotes the number of times per day (for example, "D:3" means three times per day). The default is once per hour.
| |||
sweeptiming | A valid time value in the form of minutes, such as "1" | Yes | Performs the same tasks as the synctiming parameter. However, the sweeptiming parameter sets the schedule for the "sweep" job. The sweep job is driven by the Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 change log and is used as a lightweight way to capture new users added. For example, you might have a fully synchronized site, but then a user is added to the site. The sweep job ensures that the incremental newly added user gets the user profile properties replicated quickly. The default value is every 1 minute. | ||
listolddatabases | A valid number of days, such as "2" | Yes | Lists content databases that have not been synchronized since n days. The presumption is that they have been deleted or moved. | ||
deleteolddatabases | A valid number of days | Yes | Performs the same operation as the listolddatabases parameter, except it deletes old records corresponding to these databases. It does not delete the databases themselves. |

- Edward Elric; Fullmetal Alchemist
Today I went to Supernova, an anime convention in Australia and for the first time, I got to meet Vic Mignogna! He is soso adorable! I am so happy that I got a chance to meet him! So, I made a ecard of Edward Elric, in which he signed for me. >//u//<
Having Vic Mignogna:
- Sign my Fullmetal Alchemist dvd - You can see it HERE
- Tell me the top I was wearing was pretty - I was wearing this one :3
- Said that he loved my city of Adelaide. :D
- Give me the most amazing hug, and told me I gave an amazing one back!
= The best day ever! That man is adorable both inside and out! You can't help but fall in love with him. ♥
If he kissed me on the cheek, like he did some other people, I swear, I would have fainted or my ovaries would have exploded! ahah! He was soo adorable! If he were a jelly- donut, I would have squeezed the jam outta him! When I hugged him, if I had it my way, I wouldn't have let go. I was like 'just a bit longer' ahah xD But he was soso down to earth and adorable! I wanted to take him home! I did film some of his panel and take some pictures, which you can see some on my Facebook.
I could go on and on about how adorable he was ♥, but then I would never show my resources.

It feels like I have not been paying much attention to this site. And truth is I haven't. I have been furiously working on the book I am writing with Paul Williams. Final edits are almost in and I will then have time to return to blogging. Thank you for being patient. Perhaps you don't even care. Hell, maybe you didn't even notice. In which case forget I said anything.
Though if you really miss my writing you can read this piece I did for Gratitude and Trust today.

Press Release: Statement by the IMF Executive Board on Argentina
July 13, 2011
Press Release No. 11/279July 13, 2011
Given the obligations of all member countries to provide accurate data to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), on July, 13 2011, the Executive Board met to consider a report presented by Fund management on the quality of reporting by Argentina of its official data on Consumer Price Index for Greater Buenos Aires (CPI-GBA) and Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
The Executive Board welcomed the commitment recently made by the Argentine authorities to work closely with IMF staff to improve the quality of Argentina's reporting of the CPI-GBA and GDP data, so as to bring data reporting into compliance with the obligations under the Articles of Agreement and to implement appropriate measures based on discussions already underway with staff. The Executive Board decided to meet again within 180 days to assess the progress made and decide on any necessary measures, based on recommendations from staff.

The Chicago Shakespeare Theatre recreates a slaying for "Henry IV, Part I"
Problem When The Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) presented Shakespeare's entire canon in one year, it could have been a bloody mess. But theatres from all over the world agreed to help out, bringing productions mounted elsewhere to Stratford. The mess, as it turned out, would come to England via Chicago, at the top of Henry IV, Part I. Chicago Shakespeare Theatre (CST) director Barbara Gaines wanted a pre-show in which the king has a premonitory nightmare foreshadowing the bloodshed ...

Pattern is 'Tova' by Wiksten patterns (http://www.shopwiksten.com/category/sewing-patterns). I made a small and whilst it fits perfectly, next time I want it a bit roomier and longer. The cuffs in particular need to be looser on me. Blogs all over the net have warned that the bib piece is tricky and by golly it sure was! I made the sleeves slightly puffy at the top because the fabric is pretty blokey and the top needed some girlier bits. Despite the trickiness, I enjoyed making this and have already bought fabric to make another. A good wardrobe staple that is flattering and comfortable. Nice.
Material Notes
Vintage plaid from my mother-in-law. Cotton (I assume).

March 24th pick up day 6 w/ pictures
It took me a few days to figure out how to shrink these images and finally did it.
Day #6 We visited Cannes. Our original plan was to hit St. Tropez but a couple of locals from the Hotels discouraged us to go there due to the traffic and the Holiday. I also returned the car at the new location in Nice. It is no longer in Terminal 1 at the airport, but rather near the airport. We got a bit lost getting to the drop off location because I did not put the street number(dumb a$#) on the Navigation system and it directed me to somewhere on that street. The people at the location were very nice and 3 of them worked on the paper work for my drop off. One guy drove me to the airport where I took a bus back to the Hotel in Nice since I was not leaving until the next morning. Another guy even cleaned the front license plate for me to take Pictures: #1 Cannes-in front of Festivale Theater #2 Cannes-tight parallel parking #3 Nice drop off location #4 Final odometer reading-904miles in 5days #5 In Front of Casino in Monte Carlo.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
the d.i.y. events calendar one was exactly how it sounds: how to make a d.i.y. events calendar for your town, how to solicit events from people, distributing the calendar, how it's good for bringing a community together, etc.
Currently reading Burn Collector #14... feeling kinda 'eeehh' about it. I'm not really into the comics mixed in with the content the way Al put it together this time.
I liked the stories in it, about the comics, but not really the comics inside.
however the writings are good !
NicoleIntrovert said:Currently reading Burn Collector #14... feeling kinda 'eeehh' about it. I'm not really into the comics mixed in with the content the way Al put it together this time.
I Am said:why do you usually avoid perzines and poetry zines? i've always thought most people were interested in perzines...
I find most perzines kinda boring. I primarily read zines that teach me something--a craft zine like Craft Leftovers, or a guide to being more creative, or a DIY health and cleaning guide like Make Your Place.
Of course, these zines have personal aspects to them, which I appreciate, but they're not just a list of "here's what I did today," or "here's my feelings about [whatever]," which I'm not super interested in. I've read a lot of really lame perzines--only the well written ones with unique things to say will keep my interest.
Reading the new Ax Wound and loving it!

Here's a healthy vegan creamer to spice up your coffee or tea. It's full of cinnamon and apple all wrapped up in a creamy So Delicious Coconut Milk. It's cooked down thick and sweetened only with virtuous dates. Perfect for all of your New Year's resolutions.
Try this creamer in some plain black tea – that was what I had it in first. This creamer is also quite thick so fill free to thin with some nondairy milk or water if you prefer a thinner creamer.
