Greatmartyr Paraskeva of Iconium
The Great Martyr Paraskeva of Iconium, lived during the third century in a rich and pious family. The parents of the saint especially reverenced Friday, the day of the Passion of the Lord, and therefore they called their daughter Paraskeva. This name, Paraskeva, also means Friday.
Young Paraskeva with all her heart loved purity and the loftiness of the virginal life, and she took a vow of celibacy. She wanted to devote all her life to God and to enlighten pagans with the light of Christ.
Because of her confession of the Orthodox Faith, the pagans in a frenzy seized her and brought her to the city prefect. They demanded that she offer unholy sacrifice to the pagan idols. With a steady heart, and trusting on God, the saint refused this demand. For this she underwent great torments: after stripping her, they tied her to a tree and beat her with rods. Then the torturers raked her pure body with iron claws. Finally, they threw her into prison, exhausted by the torture and lacerated to the bone. But God did not forsake the holy sufferer, and miraculously healed her wounds. Not heeding this divine miracle, the executioners continued with their torture of Saint Paraskeva, and finally, they cut off her head.
Saint Paraskeva has always enjoyed a special love and veneration among the Orthodox people. Many pious customs and observances are associated with her. In the ancient Russian accounts of the Saints' Lives, the name of the Great Martyr is inscribed as: "Saint Paraskeva, also called Piatnitsa (in Russian: Friday)." Churches dedicated to Saint Paraskeva in antiquity were given the name Piatnitsa. Small wayside chapels in Rus received the name Piatnitsa. The simple Russian people called the Martyr Paraskeva variously Piatnitsa, Piatina, Petka.
Icons of Saint Paraskeva were especially venerated and embellished by the faithful. Russian iconographers usually depicted the martyr as an austere ascetic, tall of stature, with a radiant crown upon her head. Icons of the saint guard pious and happy households. By Church belief, Saint Paraskeva is protectress of fields and cattle. Therefore, on her Feastday it was the custom to bring fruit to church to be blessed. These blessed objects were kept until the following year. Moreover, Saint Paraskeva is invoked for protection of cattle from disease. She is also a healer of people from grievous illness of both body and soul.

If you're planning on buying a Tesla, expect to pay a little extra for Autopilot.
The electric car maker raised the price of its semi-autonomous driving system from $2,500 to $3,000, Electrek first noticed. The change went into effect on Wednesday.
Autopilot enables safety features like automatic braking and blind spot warnings. But only Tesla owners who opt to pay the extra $3,000 for the Autopilot convenience features get access to all of the self-driving functions like automatic lane change.
As Electrek points out, the price increase could also hint that new hardware is being introduced to Tesla vehicles for Autopilot 2.0. However, Tesla claims the price was increased to better reflect the value of the system and that no new Autopilot hardware is being built into its cars right now.
Even without new hardware, though, it makes sense that Tesla would give Autopilot a price bump because the system is always getting better.
Tesla is able to push out over-the-air software updates to give its cars new features. When the electric car maker rolls out a new update, Autopilot usually gets some fancy new functionalities.
For example, the company rolled out its last big update, Tesla 7.1, in January and cars with the Autopilot convenience function enabled got more autonomous features, including an automatic lane change function and the ability for users to "summon" their vehicle from its parking spot.
The company is expected to roll out another software update, Tesla 8.0, sometime before the end of the year, and Autopilot is expected to get a host of new features. So even though the company may not be adding new hardware right now, it makes sense that it would increase the price.

I found some great free templates for mini wallet cards at The Album Cafe. You must have photoshop to use them and instructions on how to use the templates were provided. I needed them! I spend too much time fumbling my way around photoshop elements but I am finally starting to learn.
I put 2 pictures on a 4x6 print. Making these personalized valentine cards were just as cost effective as buying the box of cards from the store - I actually think it was cheaper. I spent $5.20 and ended up with 58 wallet sized cards. Enough for both school classes and a few extras for family.
These cards are unique and a perfect size for the classroom valentine exchange.

American Telemedicine Association (ATA)
02:22 pm June 24, 2015
Telemedicine can be "so easy." For Medicare patients, it's also incredibly rare. Nearly 20 years after such videoconferencing technology has been available for health services, fewer than 1 percent of Medicare beneficiaries use it.
10:58 am June 10, 2015
The nation's largest drugstore chain is set to expand its telehealth footprint, broadening its deployment of the MDLIVE platform and providing virtual doc visits to 25 states by year's end.
09:51 am May 06, 2015
A new telehealth platform released this week by Boston-based American Well marks a pivot point, says CEO Roy Schoenberg, focusing on enabling physicians to more easily integrate video conferencing into their workflows.
03:42 pm April 13, 2015
When it comes to helping children, telemedicine is well up to the task, thank you very much.
10:59 am January 09, 2015
Licensed providers in one Mid-Atlantic state will now be able to reimburse for telemedicine services from private insurers, joining 21 other states that have made the move thus far.
11:11 am November 21, 2014
The American Telemedicine Association is hoping an unlikely alliance in Congress between a conservative Republican and a liberal Democrat will produce some strong momentum for telemedicine in the coming years.
10:54 am September 10, 2014
How do individual states stack up when it comes to telemedicine coverage and reimbursement? A new report from the American Telemedicine Association details just that.
10:58 am August 01, 2014
Payment policies remain one of the biggest challenges yet to be ironed out when it comes to telehealth. As things stand today, doctors have little financial incentive to adopt telemedicine, as it's hard for them to be reimbursed for services rendered virtually. Two senators are looking to change that.
11:06 am June 12, 2014
The nation's largest physicians' association has officially put its foot forward with telemedicine, after establishing guiding principles to ensure coverage and reimbursement for telemedicine services.
10:29 am May 22, 2014
Making telemedicine work is often no easy process, but officials from Boston-based Partners HealthCare, a longtime leader in connected health, believe they've done it. So what's their secret?

Matt Duchene Named To Canadian Olympic Teamby Colorado Avalanche / Colorado Avalanche
Colorado Avalanche center Matt Duchene was named to Canada's Men's Olympic Hockey Team, the Canadian Olympic Committee (COC) and Hockey Canada announced today. Duchene will make his Olympic debut for Team Canada at the 2014 Olympic Winter Games held Feb. 7-23 in Sochi, Russia.
Duchene, who turns 23 years old next week (Jan. 16), has represented Canada at three of the last four world championships, 2010-11 and 2013. He appeared in all eight games for Canada at the 2013 IIHF World Championship in Stockholm and Helsinki, finishing second on the team with four goals while adding one assist for five points. Matt totaled seven points (4g/3a) in seven games at the 2010 IIHF World Championship in Germany, finishing second on the team in goals and points (tied).
The Haliburton, Ontario native won a gold medal as a member of Team Canada at the 2008 IIHF World Under-18 Championship in Kazan, Russia, recording eight points (5g/3a) in seven games. He also captained Canada's gold medal-winning team at the 2008 Under-18 Ivan Hlinka tournament in Slovakia, totaling five points (1g/4a) in four contests.
Duchene leads the Avalanche in scoring this season with 38 points (16g/22a) in 39 games. He also leads the team in goals, assists and shots (122). Matt is tied for second on the club in both power-play goals (4) and game-winning tallies (3).
Colorado's first pick (third overall) in the 2009 Entry Draft, Duchene has 231 points (98g/133a) in 305 career games. He recorded his 200th career point earlier this year on Oct. 15 against Dallas, becoming the fourth-youngest player in franchise history to surpass the 200-point mark (22 years, 272 days).

Watch how to make this recipe.
To make the marinade, place the beef in a large glass or plastic container. Add 8 sprigs of thyme, carrots, garlic, red onions, orange peel, cloves, peppercorns, bay leaves, and the wine. Mix well to coat, then cover and refrigerate for 4 hours.
Remove beef from the marinade and blot dry on paper towels. Heat the oil and butter and the remaining 4 sprigs thyme in a heavy-bottomed saucepan on a high heat. When the oil begins to smoke, remove the thyme. Add the beef and brown evenly on all sides. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Strain the marinade into the beef and stir with a wooden spoon, scraping up the flavorful bits in the bottom of the pot. Add bouquet garni and beef stock. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until the liquid starts to thicken, about 15 to 20 minutes. Cover and cook on low heat for 2 hours.
After about 2 hours add the baby carrots, garden peas, and mushrooms, along with a pinch of sugar to balance out the acid from the red wine. Turn the heat up slightly and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes more, until the vegetables and meat are tender. Season with salt and pepper.
Garnish with chopped parsley and chives. Squeeze some of the roasted garlic onto the Croutons, drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and serve with the stew.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Put garlic on a sheet of aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add a sprig of thyme and fold the foil around the garlic. Cook for 30 to 40 minutes or until garlic is tender and golden brown.
Heat about 1/4-inch of the olive oil in a frying pan. When the oil is hot, add the bread in batches and fry until golden on both sides, about 1 minute per side. Remove from pan and dry on paper towels.

This generous 17-track compilation of Willy DeVille's live performances covers his early years with Mink DeVille in 1977 extending to solo work in 2006. All songs were recorded in Europe, perhaps an indication of how well he was accepted there as opposed to his home country. That's especially interesting given how much his music drew almost entirely from American influences such as '60s Brill Building pop, New Orleans/Cajun, R&B, and an inner city Latin style best exemplified in a sizzling version of "Demasiado Corazon."
Many of his heavy hitters are present in fired-up versions, sometimes even better than the studio originals. Get hip on his great renditions of "Venus Of Avenue D", "Love And Emotion", "Demasiado Corazon", "Spanish Stroll" and a splendid version of the all time classic "Hey Joe".

Let's go back to the year 1978. A lanky 14-year-old kid slowly rolls his bicycle from the sidewalk onto a Gulf gas station lot for a closer look at the '69 Torino Cobra shown on these pages. The location is the sleepy bedroom community of West Brookfield, Massachusetts, home to a number of Chevy and Mopar muscle cars. But this Royal Maroon Torino—plus a Calypso Coral '70 Boss 302 Mustang and a Wimbledon White '66 Shelby G.T. 350—are the only local Blue Oval machines worthy of catching the young bicyclist's blossoming muscle car eye.
The bike rolls to a stop, and its youthful rider asks a mechanic about the exciting fastback Torino, its metal Cobra Jet fender emblems and 428 hoodscoop badges glinting in the sun. In shock, the kid listens as the mechanic describes how the car's owner brought it there for an engine swap. Pointing to a crusty Ford 302 Windsor small-block resting in the bed of a nearby pickup truck, the mechanic says that the Torino's owner, in search of better fuel economy, contracted the shop to replace the 428 Cobra Jet with the weak-kneed 302.
Remember, this was 1978, and the ongoing phase-out of high-octane leaded gas—and lingering memories of the Arab oil embargo—relegated most muscle cars to mere used-car status. In fact, their high-compression engines made them less desirable than their six-cylinder and two-barrel, single-exhaust, nonmuscle counterparts. This truly was the era of $1,000 Hemi 'Cudas, LS6 Chevelles, and Boss 429s. It really happened.
In those dark days only an enlightened few recognized these future collectibles and preserved them. For others, engine swaps were a common way to keep older muscle cars on the road without going broke at the gas pump. Because it slashed 126 thirsty cubic inches, trading the Torino's 428 for a 302 made perfect sense. The watchful bike-riding kid witnessed a similar scenario on the other end of town as a pristine Alpine White '70 Plymouth Sport Fury GT had its factory-issue 440 Super Commando replaced with a 318 two-barrel in the name of improved fuel economy.
That bike-riding kid described above was me, Steve Magnante, author of this story and certified muscle car fanatic. I recall that the Torino languished at the Gulf station for several weeks as the 302 was gradually installed. The owner eventually retrieved the car and I never saw it again … until I took these photographs in early 2012, by which time the 428 had been returned to its rightful place between the spring towers.
New for the '69 model year, the Torino Cobra was a specific model, not an option group tacked onto the Torino GT. Packing standard 428 power, the Cobra was Ford's budget supercar entry, a market segment created by the Plymouth Road Runner in 1968. Best of all, the Cobra fastback's base retail price of $3,333.70 included the big 428. By contrast, '69 Road Runner hardtop buyers paid $3,215 for their weaker 383-powered machines. Any hope of catching the 428-motivated Torino Cobra required coughing up $462.80 for the 440 Six Barrel (390 hp) or $700.90 for the 426 Street Hemi (425 hp). Though rated the same 335 hp as Plymouth's smaller 383, true 428 CJ output is closer to 400. Performance comparisons with the 440 Six Barrel are not out of line.
Currently owned by Bob Trudeau, whose '69 Camaro Z/28 was also featured in MCR ("Second Owner Savior," Apr. '10), the maroon Torino appears just as it did when I first saw it nearly 35 years ago through 14-year-old eyes. Thanks to indoor storage, the faded paint, owner-applied flat-black taillamp trim, slotted aluminum wheels, and belted bias-ply tires are exactly as they were in 1978. Bob, a Chevy guy at heart but a fan of all muscle cars, bought the Cobra from a coworker who'd been sitting on it since the early '80s.
At present, Bob is torn between performing a full restoration and just bolting everything back together and driving it as much as possible. Regardless of what the fates have in store, we can thank the temporary 302 engine swap for the car's existence today. It is likely the swap rekindled its owner's interest in the car, saving it from the junkyard.
Bizarre but Brief
The Road Runner wasn't the only Plymouth entity under attack by Ford in 1969. As this classic Stock Car Racing magazine cover photo depicts, Ford lured NASCAR star Richard Petty away from Plymouth and put him behind the wheel of a series of Torino stock cars for the 1969 race season. Stock Car Racing called it "the most shocking change-over to hit the modern-day stock car sport."
The root of Petty's switch was the fact there was no companion model to the aerodynamic Dodge Charger Daytona in Plymouth's '69 lineup. The Petty camp was (rightfully) concerned about the competitiveness of the Road Runner's blunt nose and lift-inducing concave backlight on the superspeedway.
The bizarre sight of electric-blue Torinos bearing the number 43 was brief. Though Boss 429 and 427 wedge-powered Torinos and Torino Talladegas carried Petty to numerous wins in 1969, for 1970 Plymouth acquiesced and released the aerodynamically enhanced Road Runner Superbird—just in time to face a series of handicaps from NASCAR intended to put more "stock" in its stock cars and push "race engines" off the track. Petty's "defection" was undoubtedly responsible for the sale of many Torinos, maybe even our feature car.

House Explodes, Bursts Into Flames In Howard Beach
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Officials on Wednesday evening were trying to determine what caused a home to catch fire and partially collapse earlier in the day in Queens.
The apparent explosion happened at around 2 p.m. at 162-39 84th St., in Howard Beach. The fire was brought under control by about 3:30 p.m., according to the FDNY.
Chopper 2 was over the scene as a bright orange fireball burst through the roof. Twenty- to 30-foot high flames could be seen.
Fire crews worked on what was described as a precarious situation.
"Quickly, our units were encountered with a gas-fed fire and a partial collapse of the building. Two things that are very dangerous to firefighters," Deputy Assistant Fire Chief Bob Maynes told reporters at the scene.
WEB EXTRA: Photos Of The Home Explosion
Some neighbors in the community still reeling from Hurricane Sandy said they heard a loud boom when the fire broke out at the house — which itself had been damaged by Sandy, WCBS 880's Monica Miller reported.
"I thought it was a plane or something hitting the neighborhood, being that we've had so much problems here," a woman told Miller.
The top of the home appears to have been completely demolished, leaving a giant crater in the center of the structure.
According to neighbors, an elderly couple named the Pepitones live in the home, Miller reported. One neighbor, John Dezago, said he saw Theresa Pepitone hanging precariously from a window, 1010 WINS' Holli Haerr reported.
"The bricks and everything just came flying down," Dazego said, adding he ran over and called 911.
"I noticed a lady hanging in the window, so I started yelling at her, 'Get out of the house! Get out of the house!'" he said.
Theresa Pepitone was taken to Jamaica Medical Center with burns. She was listed in critical but stable condition late Wednesday night, CBS 2's Alice Gainer reported.
"Her clothes were a little bit ripped, they were burned. She was burned badly — her hands, her face, her hair," neighbor Joseph Noll, who lives around the corner, told Gainer.
"She just kept saying 'get a gun, shoot me, get a gun, shoot me.' She must've been in that much pain," another neighbor told Miller.
Pepitone's husband, Joe, was not home when the fire broke out. But he could be seen speaking with investigators for hours afterward, CBS 2's Gainer reported.
The Pepitones' German Shepherd was saved by a neighbor.
"The nose was burned, the paws were burned, the hair was burned," Noll told Gainer.
The road remained closed to traffic at 3:30 p.m. but it appears no other homes were affected by the fire, Miller reported.
By around 2:20 p.m., the gas had apparently been shut off and the columns of flame had been knocked down.
In the wake of the blast, Bob Kazanowitz walked CBS 2 through his backyard, where pieces of his next-door neighbor's home lay scattered on the lawn.
"We have all the smoke, water damage inside," he said.
Given the damage already wrought by Sandy, Kazanowitz said the neighborhood is devastated all over again.
"We just feel very awful," he said. "It's like being hit over the head twice — first the hurricane, and now this."
The home was in the Rapid Repairs program after Sandy, but officials weren't commenting on whether any work done may have played a role in the fire.
"I can't confirm that that work was done, that's what our fire marshal will do," Maynes said.
National Grid responded to the scene. The company said it checked its lines in the area and found no problems, nor had there been reports in recent days of gas odors. There may have been a problem with the private service line to the home, National Grid told CBS 2.

A Newark cabbie was honored yesterday by the mayor with a special medallion for reuniting a touring musician with his $4 million violin after it was mistakenly left in the back seat of a taxi.
When the Stradivari stringed instrument finally was returned to him, Philippe Quint fell to his knees and cried.
NJ.com reported, "It took 18 months for Philippe Quint to persuade a wealthy philanthropist to lend him a 1723 Antonio Stradivari violin valued at upward of $4 million. It took less than a minute for the valuable instrument to disappear after Quint left it in a Newark cab."

The district's fifth-graders and eighth-graders celebrated their accomplishments and officially advanced to middle school and high school during touching moving up ceremonies held during the last week of school. Family, friends, teachers, administratorsand Board of Education members joined together to mark the occasion with speeches that praised their success and offered advice for the next chapters in their education.
At Locust Valley Middle School, the moving up ceremony honored the hard work and dedication of the entire eighth-grade class, who were dressed in green graduation gowns to mark the formal occasion. Board of Education Vice President Kerian Carlstrom addressed the eighth-graders and their guests with inspirational words, while class officers shared their memories of their middle school years. The ceremony also focused on how well prepared the students are to enter high school, thanks to their hard work and the support of faculty, staff and their parents. The eighth-grade select chorus and the seventh-grade band brought musical energy to the ceremony with their performances.
Bayville Intermediate School fifth-graders received praise from Board of Education trustee Sarah Henris, who encouraged them to be all they can be in middle school. The graduates performed multiple songs for their guests, including a song written about Bayville 125 years ago. Bayville Elementary School Principal Scott McElhiney and Assistant Principal Dorothy McManus each told the children how much they would be missed and how much they enjoyed having them in their schools.
Locust Valley Intermediate School graduates smiled through their fifth-grade moving up ceremony, which included musical numbers and speakers that shared their pride in the students for their incredible growth throughout their six years of elementary school. Board of Education President Brian T. Nolan, a graduate of Locust Valley Intermediate School himself, said he knew firsthand that the faculty had prepared them well for middle school and beyond. Locust Valley Elementary School Principal Dr. Sophia Gary and Assistant Principal Amy Watson both spoke at the ceremony, sharing advice for the future.
At both intermediate schools, children rang the bells signifying the number of years they had been there. This tradition is included in the moving up ceremonies each year.
Congratulations and good luck to all of the students that moved up!

A Great Football Rivalry
One of the greatest, and most overlooked, football rivalries in the world takes place in Calcutta (Kolkata) India between Mohun Bagan and East Bengal. The two teams play each other in the 120,000 capacity Salt Lake Stadium with an intensity that is unmatched anywhere in the world. This sixty-minute documentary film will take a close-up look at the remarkable story of these two teams by following the players, team officials, and the fans as they prepare for one of their epic games.
While learning about football in India the film will also explore Indian and Bengali history. The history of these two teams and the history of Bengal are inseparable. When Mohun Bagan beat a British regimental team in 1911, they helped push the Indian freedom movement forward. When India gained its freedom in 1947 and Bengal was partitioned, it had a profound impact on Calcutta and the East Bengal Football Club.
Calcutta is a dynamic metropolis where history, culture and football converge. This documentary film will explore the depth of passion that has sustained this rivalry for close to one hundred years. I want people in other parts of the world to experience part of what I have experienced - the passion for these two teams that have been such an important part of Bengali history.
- Kelly Candaele
We have worked on this film for close to two years. Along the way I received help from many Bengalis who took the time to support us and even opened their homes to us. I wanted to thank everyone who helped make this film possible. - Kelly Candaele -

I love Facebook because even if I can't actually call to talk in order to catch up, or thank people: friends, students, parents, former acquaintances whom I would like to have had a better friendship; Facebook allows that in a world where I have to play mommy sometimes and I feel guilty that I don't do enough of that, and I am still so very behind on work (got an observation with my principal Tuesday, got to get Pirates broken down and ensemble cast worked out and a rehearsal schedule, get my tapes done to finish my orals, meetings for Internationals and every fund raiser or activity has it's own paper work, study flight lessons, stay in shape, go grocery shopping, not to mention Christmas shopping) and I so want to keep in touch with my friends too.
So…Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me your ears and let me say I MISS YOU ALL and wish you Happy Holidays AND thank you all because this past year, "I got by with a little help from my friends."
Since I last wrote I managed to pull off Much Ado about Nothing and my students were fabulous as usual. I was super proud I directed a full length Shakespearean show that turned out so extremely well. After that I took my students to the Arizona Thespian Festival and we won first in state for One Acts and will be taking our show to the International competition in Lincoln, Nebraska in June.
As you can see by my first paragraph, and the fact I haven't updated in almost 3 months, I have been a wee bit busy.
Friends, students and family that read this: I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU ALL!

on the composition and playstyle of the enemy team.
To start with, i always take a Doran's Ring ((Doran's Ring)) because of the
health, and more importantly the mana regen. Try not to spam your spells too
much at the start as this big guy runs out of mana very easily. Instead use
Fissure ((Fissure)) to help your laning partner to escape from ganks, or to
harass your enemy.
Lane for a while, and by the time you are lvl 6 you should have a decent idea
about the quality of the enemy team. Go back to your base and get Mercury's
Treads ((Mercury's Treads)). This is where you make a choice:
A. They don't play very well, and you are almost harassing them to death.
If this is the case, you're lucky. Get Rod of Ages ((Rod of Ages)) as your next
item, starting with the Blasting Wand ((Blasting Wand)). This item gives great
AP and some survivability + mana for more spamming. Keep harassing and you
should have the tower down pretty easily. Use Feast ((Feast)) primarily for
taking down enemies, as it will be dealing HUGE damage Feasting on minions to
get stacks is ok as well, but you won't really need them.
After RoA go for Rabadon's Deathcap ((Rabadon's Deathcap)). By now you should be
a great pusher/farmer, taking down minion waves with just 1 Rupture ((Rupture)).
Next get Rylai's Crystal Scepter ((Rylai's Crystal Scepter)) for the slowing
effect, Void Staff ((Void Staff)) for the Magic Pen and finish with for example
a Zhonya's Hourglass ((Zhonya's Hourglass)) or Lich Bane ((Lich Bane)). Of
course you sell the Doran's Ring ((Doran's Ring)).
This build will deal insane damage with Rupture ((Rupture)), Feral Scream
((Feral Scream)) and Feast ((Feast)), and even your Vorpal Spikes ((Vorpal
Spikes)) will eat away about 20 HP per hit.
Core build: (icon=Mercury's Treads size=64)(icon=Rod of Ages size=64)
(icon=Rabadon's Deathcap size=64)
B. They are able to hold their lane well, and/or push you back to your tower.
In this case you'd best go full tank. After your Ring and Boots immediately go
for Warmog's Armor ((Warmog's Armor)). Farm minions to stack your armor's
passive, and play defensive. If you lane with a carry like Yi or Jax, give him
the kills. Try to feed your carry and babysit him (= stay very close to him so
he'll get away if ganked).
Your next item will depend on the enemies you play against:
- When you encounter 3 or more heavy AP nukers such as Ryze or Kassadin you
should get a Banshee's Veil ((Banshee's Veil)). This will cause them to waste
one of their abilities on your spell shield, ad gives you some very nice
survivability. Next you buy Force of Nature ((Force of Nature)). By this time
their casters should have serious trouble getting you down. Then you get a
Guardian Angel ((Guardian Angel)) to be a pain in the @$$. Last item is up to
you, but usually the game will be finished by the time you can buy this.
- When you're playing against 3 or more melee carries like Yi or Tryndamere get
a Thornmail ((Thornmail)) right after your Warmog's ((Warmog's Armor)), because
it'll hurt them as well. Beware of Madred's Bloodrazors ((Madred's
Bloodrazors))! After the Thornmail ((Thornmail)) buy Guardian Angel ((Guardian
Angel)). Then you can buy a Frozen Heart and Randuin's Omen to slow the enemies.
- When you play against a mixed team (which is the one you will be seeing 90% of
the time) you first get Warmog's, then Banshee's ((Banshee's Veil)) or Thornmail
((Thornmail)), depending on who you lane against. Then you buy the other one, so
you're a balanced tank in teamfights. After those 2 get Guardian Angel (Guardian
Angel)) (i really like this item as it gets on the enemies nerves).
Core build: (icon=Mercury's Treads size=64)(icon=Warmog's Armor size=64)
(icon=Guardian Angel size=64)
Its possible to mix the AP build with one of the Tank build variations, but it
will decrease the effectiveness of both offense and defense. Try to focus
enemies with Madreds in team fights, as you'll suffer a lot of damage from them
(due to Warmog's ((Warmog's Armor)) and Feast ((Feast)) stacks).
So in short: If the enemy sucks, go AP and nuke them. If they are good, go Tank
(items depending on their team) and babysit your carry.

Remember, all these Off-Page SEO activities should be performed simultaneously to advertise your web site. Daily some SEO work should be done for your own website.
In addition, do not submit to countless websites or directories within a day this may cause harm to your website then good. That's to say, daily forty to fifty good entries must be achieved within your Off Page SEO.

As of today, Wednesday 19th August, Surf Snowdonia has been forced to shut its doors to the public due to an unforeseen technical problem at the Wavegarden site. The announcement has been made this morning and although the exact problem hasn't been revealed, the official word is that the lagoon will have to be fully drained to allow engineers to be able to address the fault and Surf Snowdonia will remain closed for several days.
This will be a huge blow to everyone on the site who has worked tirelessly since the launch nearly three weeks ago, and also a major disappointment to the guests who have lessons and sessions pre-booked. Surf Snowdonia are promising to refund anyone who is affected by the closure and have made it clear that although the lagoon is out of action, the rest of the site is still open, including the café bar, the surf shop and the soft play shack and camping pods.
Having visited the site for the official opening back in July, we know that the staff and engineers will be working at their absolute best to get the lagoon repaired and re-opened as quickly as humanly possible. In the meantime you can stay up to speed with all on site developments by checking in at the Surf Snowdonia Facebook page. Let us know if you have been affected by the closure and are you shocked that such a major problem has developed within just a few weeks of opening?

A friend of mine over on Facebook shared this post from Scary Mommy's site. For those who don't feel like clicking through, it's a wonderful "heart to heart" post regarding labeling children and how, whether you like it or not, if you kid needs a label, your kid needs a label.
And I'm 157% behind her on this. Because I've dealt with the system both with and without a label and let me tell you, having that diagnosis, that "label" makes a world of difference.
I remember the days before Pete got his ADHD diagnosis, even before he got his SPD diagnosis. Days of wondering when the next phone call would come because of his bad behavior in his Parents' Day Out program. Wondering why he didn't like almost any food. Worrying about temper tantrums whenever we went out, or worrying that he would take his clothes off in the middle of the store. Afraid that I was a bad parents because his behavior was so bad, and desperate to know what I had done differently between Teddy and Peter. The fears that he'd never be successful in school because he was so far behind, academically and socially, what other kids his age were doing and how they were acting. Despair that I would have to figure out how to home school him, because it would be his only option.
I remember the hope I had when we got into the Regional Intervention Program. The tools they gave me made me feel so much more secure in what I was doing, even though the behavior problems were still there. He was actually worse behaved on our last day at RIP than we were on our first. But, even though there were the fears that he would still have problems in school, I knew that I was doing my best at home and I knew how to best let him know what was expected.
I remember talking to his doctor next about how far behind he was developmentally. He wasn't holding a pencil as well as his peers, he wasn't quite as social, and didn't have the knowledge that he should have by then. An evaluation at the Children's Rehab was in order, and that's where I found out about Sensory Perception Disorder (SPD). I worked with his therapist on ways to make him more comfortable, to find where his limits were and to give him a little more of what he needed for starting school.
I remember being convinced that I had everything I needed to get him the help he would need at school. I had a diagnosis, I'd requested a teacher both he and I already knew and I was ready to fill out an IEP for him. But the SPD label wasn't enough. The AAP (American Academy of Pediatricians) didn't recognize SPD as it's own separate disorder. Because it was seen so often with children in the autism spectrum and children with ADHD, they bundled it as an effect rather than a disease itself. So I had to fight to get his IEP meeting set up. He had to go through a lot of the same testing again to get the considerations that he needed, like having speech therapy or having certain items in the classroom to help when he had sensory overload. The school wanted to help, but their hands were tied because I didn't come in with the proper label. (Though his teachers were fantastic in keeping in touch with me and helping work out ways to help him be in a position to learn.)
I remember his first suspension, when his lack of impulse control caused him to poke a friend in the chest with a pencil. Not because he was angry or out of control but because he wanted to find out what would happen. The anger fits, the taking off his shoes and chewing on his toes while sitting on the rug became worries of another time. I knew that something more needed to be done. That the IEP we had and the label of SPD wasn't enough.
I remember hearing back from his doctor when I told her about this and hearing the words "He may have ADHD. If you and his teacher will fill out this paperwork, we can find out." There was fear there. ADHD brought visions of children drugged to zombiehood to mind, memories of "Ritilan Kids" when I was a girl. I didn't want my wonderfully creative boy to lose that creativity and become someone other than himself. But I knew that something needed to be done. So I passed the paperwork on to his teacher. I filled out the paperwork myself. And I turned them all in to his doctor, waiting to hear the verdict.
I remember a small sigh of relief, interspersed with the fear of "what now?!" when she told me that, based on the answers from his teacher and I, that he was ADHD. And that we would need to meet to talk about the best medication to put him on.
I remember how much easier things got after that. I was able to show the school an official diagnosis of ADHD and have it put into his file. The label would follow him all through his school career, but it would mean he'd be able to get whatever help he'd need instead of having to fight over and over for it. I was able to get him on Adderall, a drug that slowed his brain down enough that he became a fantastic student but didn't dull the creativity in the least. Finally, we'd found the answer. And if the answer came with a label, that wasn't what was important. What was important was the answer.
We all have labels. One of Pete's is ADHD. One of mine is Depression Sufferer. One of Teddy's is Gifted One of Rich's is Funny Guy. But labels are just one part of what makes us who we are. I can also label Pete as Creative. Mine as Mommy. Teddy's as Quick Tempered. Rich's as Trivia Master. The individual parts don't matter as much as the whole does. And if anyone feels like that one label can define my child, me, or anyone else, they aren't someone whose opinion matters anyway.
