Why isn't the PUSD School Board Investigating Ahmadi

What's this about the Board of Trustees needing a 3-2 vote to review or read any documents or information that Ahmadi possesses. Seems like their hands are tied to me Where is the transparency in that policy?

Which sneaky snake leaked an unredacted investigators report???
How can a principal be removed with no charges against him? What kind of info does the teachers' union have to leak to the press that made the District choose to go after one man (JV) instead of taking on a powerful union? What about the sad mess that still exists at WG? Why doesn't the school board use good conscience and call time out and make sure JV gets due process? Corruption , dishonesty and not doing right eventually catches up to any perpetrator. We elect a school board to represent us voters thoughtfully and honestly. Shame on you Grant, Bowser and Larson. You can put an end to these shenanigans immediately, yet you show us nothing but weakness!! You aren't even ashamed of yourselves. I am thoroughly disgusted with all of you.

Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Threats to Ezreal with this build
|This lane is just a farmfest. You will never kill him because of his passive bonus health, health sustain and Sanguine Pool. But he will never kill you because he has no ways of catching you. Focus on farming and don't bother harassing him if your jungler isn't going to gank for you, you will rarely solo kill a Vlad.
Welcome to my first guide: Ezreal, the Prodigal Mage!
My name is Borja and I play under the username of Zafiro in the EUW server. Ezreal is my all-time favourite champion and I have been playing him since I got started in Leage of Legends.
Here I present you the guide to AP Ezreal. Though it is not seen much nowadays, you will see how it is a really viable option, even for ranked.
My purpose was to make a very in depth guide so you guys reach a full comprehension of the champion and his playstyle. I am open to criticism, so feel free to send me a message with your suggestions and advices. My goal is to make of this guide a great one.
Without further a do, let's dive into Ezreal, the Prodigal Mage
|Strenghts and Weaknesses
In depth
But he has his weaknesses. If the enemy manages to CC him, he won't probably survive due to the fact that he is very squishy. He has troubles farming in the early game and he will find himself behind in CS more often than not. In the same token, he has no wave clear apart from Trueshot Barrage, and he better save it for an incoming teamfight. The lack of crowd control and utility is the reason why he's not played in the proffessional scene, but he's very viable in solo queue. And last but not least: remember that every ability is a skillshot, so he better hit those or he will deal no damage whatsoever.
|Flash is mandatory
Choose One
|Rune Page
|Ferocity Tree
Cunning Tree
|Ezreal's Abilities
Ezreal's kit screams one thing: DAMAGE!
All of his abilities deal damage, and quite a lot to be honest. I will go over each ability, providing relevant information as well as tips and tricks for all of them. Play to your champion's strenghts while being aware of his weaknesses
|Rising Spell Force (Passive)
Apart from its use to tower push, it is not a very useful ability when playing Ezreal as a mage. This ability was thoguht for AD Caster Ezreal, when you will build him mainly AD and not so much attack speed, and the passive is going to let you increase your DPS in teamfights.
It has a use for AP Ezreal though, and that is if you build Lich Bane:
When you got yourself a Lich Bane, the next autoatack is going to deal 75% of your AD + 50% of your AP as Magic damage (once every 2 seconds). So autoatacking right after using Essence Flux or Arcane Shift will deal good damage ( Mystic Shot already applies Lich Bane passive on hit).
If you manage to hit a champion with any of your spells, your attack speed is going to increase. Making it faster to autoatack right after hitting your combo, applying Lich Bane`s passive.
I recomend you to always throw that last AA right after your combo. That is because if you miss Mystic Shot, Lich Bane's passive would be wasted if you don't autoatack.
|Mystic Shot (Q)
It has a poor AP scaling and deals physical damage, that's why we are going to max it last. Putting more ranks in it may increase your DPS but not by a whole lot, and we have already stated that AP Ezreal is more about burst damage than DPS. That's why you will benefit more from ranking other abilities.
That being said this ability is very important has more uses than you think for AP Ezreal.
Mystic Shot is the ability with the lowest cooldown and mana cost of your set, so you can use it in lane for farming whenever you need to. Its long range lets you farm from far away when you are low and it is extremely useful for farming under tower aswell.
I recomend you to put a point in this ability at level 1. AP Ezreal already farms poorly enough in the early game to not take Mystic Shot as soon as you can. While Essence Flux is reliable to hit the enemy with in the lane, the benefits you are going to get for taking Mystic Shot at level 1 are higher.
It applies on hit effects, so it procs Lich Bane's passive. With it, Mystic Shot is going to deal considerable damage even at rank 1.
If it hits, will lower the cooldow of every ability by 1.5 seconds. This is actually very important. That's why you will cast Mystic Shot at the end of your combo and not before. Lowering the cooldown of every ability will let you have your combo ready sooner, so don't hesitate to spam Mystic Shots in teamfights. When you are being chased and need to jump over a wall to escape, if you have Arcane Shift on cooldown, hitting the chaser with Mystic Shot can save your life.
Don't forget to throw a Mystic Shot to the raptor camp when you are returning to lane to lower the cooldown of Trueshot Barrage.
|Essence Flux (W)
This is your main source of damage in lane. That's why you are going to max it first. It can go through the minion wave, so you can harass the enemy laner when he comes to melee range to last hit or whenever he is in range.
At early levels it already deals big damage, at rank 3 (level 5) it has 160 base damage, which will hugely harass the enemy midlaner if you manage to consistently hit it.
In teamfights, you will try to hit Essence Flux through as many champions as possible. Position yourself correctly to be able to do so. At max rank it deals 250 base damage, and has a 0.8 AP ratio. So it will decimate carries in the mid-late game if you are ahead. A lot of your damage is going to come from Essence Flux in teamfights, so your presition is key.
When your team is taking an objective, Essence Flux through as many allied champions as possible to buff their attack speed. In teamfights, hitting enemies with it is more valuable, but if you are low on HP and getting closer to the enemy is going to mean your death, you can still Essence Flux your ADC, amplifying his DPS with that 40% attack speed steroid.
There is a little trick that you can do to increase your own attack speed. Using Essence Flux and Arcane Shifting on it, will give you the attack speed buff from Essence flux plus the 10% attack speed buff from Rising Spell Force. This is of little use when playing AP Ezreal, but there you have it.
|Arcane Shift (E)
This ability is what makes AP Ezreal viable and a safe pick. It is the ability most similar to Flash in the entire game, and it also deals big damage. It has a longer range than Flash itself, and you can blink over almost all of the walls of the map.
Arcane Shift is going to be the start of your combo. Remember that the damage will be dealt to the nearest enemy to the position that you jump to. So for it to hit an enemy champion, no enemy minions should be nearby. If by any chance it does not hit your objective, you will loose in a lot of the damage of your combo.
During the laning phase it will be very difficult to hit, because the enemy will be safe from it inside their minion wave.
You can reliably hit it when your jungler is ganking for you, and the enemy is running away from the minion wave to be safe under his tower. When he goes out of the protection of his minions, Arcane Shift on top of him and complete your combo.
In the mid and late game only Arcane Shift agressively if you are confident you can kill an enemy with your combo. Otherwise, save it. You will die if you Arcane Shift forward and then get focused down. Again: Ezreal is a safe pick if you play him inteligently.
You gotta be in the backline, throwing your spells from a safe distance, and only going in to finish off a carry. I cannot stress more how squishy you are. Remember: you are a glass canon.
|Trueshot Barrage (R)
Trueshot Barrage is the ability that defines Ezreal. A global projectile that will damage every unit it passes through. It is your most important ability, and it has a lot of uses:
With it you can help the sidelines without having to move away from mid lane. Throw a Trueshot Barrage every time you see your allies are trading in their lanes or when a gank is going on in them.
You will be able to cross map snipe if you see an enemy surviving a fight with low health.
Since it grants vision, you can check if the enemy is doing Baron or Dragon, and if you are lucky, you may even steal it. Also, throw a Trueshot Barrage every time you see your enemy midlaner going to take his blue buff.
It clears waves from any point of the map. This lets you stop a split push or defend a tower, denying the objective to the enemy team.
And last but not least, Trueshot Barrage deals huge AoE damage in teamfights. Try to hit as many enemy champions as you can with it. A good Trueshot Barrage in a teamfight will easily deal more damage than any of your allies. If you manage to hit the carries too, you will win that teamfight more ofthen than not.
Your main goal is to hit as many enemies as possible, and the best time to do so is when the teamfight just started. At that time is when most of the CC's are going to be used, and it's going to be pretty hectic. All of this going on, will make it difficult for the enemy to spot an incoming Trueshot Barrage, and even if they do, they will have a harder time getting away from it.
Note that if Trueshot Barrage is blocked by Wind Wall or Unbreakable, a huge amount of damage is going to be denied, almost surely wining the teamfight for the enemy team. Wait until those abilities are down to throw Trueshot Barrage.
It is recommended to throw Trueshot Barrage from the fog of war, since its cast time of 1 second is enough time for your enemies to react. Its damage is reduced by 10% for each enemy hit, so try to hit your target directly. Avoid Trueshot Barrage from flying through a minion wave or jungle camp.
|Starting Items
|First Back
|Core Items
As AP Ezreal you want to buy these items in the vast majority of your games because they are the ones that will bring you more damage overall. But remember that League of Legends is all about adaptation, so think about who are you playing against and build accordingly.
|Boots (Choose One)
|Situational Items
|Laning Phase
AP Ezreal has a very safe early game due to the fact that he can farm from very far away with Mystic Shot and has a blink ability ( Arcane Shift) that lets you reposition and get away from harm. That will let you stay in lane for longer and farm up until you have the desired gold to make your first purchase.
Try to save your mana when farming, dont spam Mystic Shots if you can farm with autoatacks, because that mana can be put to a better use if you use it to poke your enemy laner.
The biggest drawback of AP Ezreal is how bad he farms, so always keep an eye on the position of the wave and try to keep it away from your tower as much as you can, since if the enemy pushes it will make you loose some CS. If you find that you are getting behind in farm, don't panic, that's pretty standard. Due to the lack of wave clear, you will only be roaming at the cost of a full wave of gold and experience that will likely have melted to your turret by the time you come back, so be clever with the timing of your roams. Every time you back, try to buy Vision Wards and Health Potions with leftover gold since these will let you stay in lane for longer.
Ezreal benefits a lot from blue buff, so the kindness of your jungler will be highly appreciated. If you are not getting them, well, it's okay. It is solo queue at the end of the day and you have to make do with the resources that you have.
You have to harass the enemy laner with autoatacks and Essence Fluxes if they are inside of their minion wave. If you constantly poke them and manage to get them below 30% HP they may run away from their wave looking for some safety under their turret, that's your window of opportunity. At that point, when they are not surrounded by minions is when you can Arcane Shift offensively and Ignite, followed by Essence Flux and Mystic Shot, securing a kill in most cases. Saving Mystic Shot for last has two advantages: it will reduce by one second your other abilities' cooldowns; and because it's range is so long and the projectile speed so high, you can hit it even after the enemy Flashes away.
Ezreal may not be the best farmer of his own lane, but the wave management he can offer to the sidelanes is one of the most important characteristics of his kit, and it is often overlooked. Apart from granting you some gold, this can safe some of your turrets and putting an end to an enemy splitpush in a matter of seconds.
AP Ezreal excells in skirmishes and small fights in the jungle and river. The absence of nearby minions is going to let you land your full combo, since your Mystic Shot and Arcane Shift are single target abilities. If one of those would hit a minion instead of the enemy champion, you are going to loose out in a lot of your burst damage.
Skirmishes don't use to last enough for you to cast your full combo more than once. So don't be afraid to Arcane Shift forward to deal all your burst damage to the enemy champion your team is focusing on.
Every time you do your combo you have to keep in mind that Essence Flux and Arcane Shift are skill shots, so the enemy can dodge them. Take your time to aim and make sure you don't miss them, because if this happens, it can mean your death instead of a kill.
Objectives - Sieging
That's it for my guide Ezreal, the Prodigal Mage. I have learned a lot making it and I hope you did as well.
Be sure to send me any advices that you may have, I am open for constructive criticism. I am sure this guide is going to be changed a lot since I'm certain I missed something. For any questions, message me, I will be glad to answer you all.
Special thanks to jhoijhoi for her outstanding guide tutorial; it helped me out a lot.
This is all from me. Now go out there to the fields of justice and try AP Ezreal out, I wish you good results! Tell me how that went! See you soon.

Preview: The Wild, after winning two of three on the road, blew a great opportunity against a rebuilding Calgary Flames team by losing 4-1 on Sunday. That opened a three-game homestand with a fifth consecutive home defeat (0-4-1, four goals scored). Now the Kings come to town, and they are looking a lot like the team that cruised to a Stanley Cup last spring. They are 4-0-1 in their past five and 9-2-3 in their past 14. The Wild beat them 4-3 in a shootout at home March 30.
Players to watch: Kings C Jeff Carter leads the Western Conference with 25 goals. He has 21 goals in the past 33 games. C Anze Kopitar is tied for 22nd in the NHL with 41 points — 32 points in the past 31 games —but no goals in the past 13. RW Dustin Brown is tied for fifth in the West with 18 goals. Wild checkers Stephane Veilleux and Jake Dowell will make their season debuts (and Dowell's Wild debut). D Ryan Suter, second among NHL blue-liners with 28 assists, has topped 30 minutes in four of the past eight games. LW Zach Parise is fourth in the NHL with 172 shots. The Wild is 8-3-2 when Parise scores a goal.
Numbers: The Kings' penalty kill has extinguished 16 consecutive penalties and 48 of the past 53. Their power play has goals in eight consecutive games; the Wild allowed three power-play goals on three chances Sunday. Four of the past five meetings have gone to a shootout (Wild winning three in a row).
Injuries: Wild LW Mike Rupp (lower body), RW Dany Heatley (shoulder surgery) and C Zenon Konopka (broken foot) are out. Kings D Willie Mitchell (knee) is out.

CFF Overview: Interior OL - Buyer Beware
Every year there are players who never meet expectations. Most of those expectations are based on potential. Some of those players show glimpses of it but fail to deliver on consistent basis. This happens because it can be easy to see what a player can be, but overlooking where they currently are in that development and the limitations they have.
As we continue to look at the interior offensive line, here are a group of four players who have limitations to their game and if over-drafted might struggle to meet the expected potential.
Tre' Jackson, Guard, FSU
Tre' Jackson is a guard some people have going as high as the second or third round in the upcoming draft. However, we see that as a reach for Jackson who is not a bad player by any means, but he is clearly below the other top prospects at the guard position. The main limitation of Jackson is that he lacks explosion on his blocks. While he weighed in at 330 pounds the power and explosion needed to control blocks was not there, often times Jackson gets knocked back in the run game where you would expect him to be a handful for defensive lineman.
With all the negatives of Jackson's play, there are positives as well. For starters, he has good awareness in pass protection where he can recognize stunts and has his head on a swivel to find any players who are delaying their blitz to come through the A- or B-gap. Also when Jackson is leading out the runner on pulls he has good movement skills to he used in a power scheme in the NFL.
Signature Stats: Against the Power 5 teams Jackson had a 97.7 Pass Blocking Efficiency with 16 total pressures allowed.
John Miller, Guard, Louisville
The Louisville guard is player who we are cautious about after his play in 2014. John Miller is a guard who played around 300 pounds and there was little movement on his blocks. Instead, he would try and seal them simply by getting in the way instead of working to widen a bigger hole. With an undersized guard it is expected that they would make up for the lack of power with excellent movement skills and this is where he was at his best.
Miller was able to pull and locate linebackers in space, but again he was unable to create much movement. The lack of movement might not be a big concern in college, but against big faster NFL players this will become an issue as they will be in better position. It's reasonable to expect the defenders to be able to shed him and cause problems in the running game.
In the passing game, Miller struggles with speed rushes to the outside and for someone who is on the lighter side, this is a bad sign since he will also struggle against power. However, Miller could have struggled because he was overcompensating for the Louisville center who was poor even for college standards.
Signature Stats: For Guards who played over 215 passing snaps Miller finished 64th out of 85 guards in Pass Blocking Efficiency at 96.6.
Reese Dismukes, Center, Auburn
Over last season Dismukes was an effective blocker, especially in the run game where he was 11th in Run Blocking Efficiency with 91.3% of all his blocks being non-negative plays. However, a lot of this is due to the scheme that the Tigers ran with some type of option on over 80% of plays. This led to defensive lineman being indecisive as they had to respect the A-gap due to Auburn regularly attacking that spot with their run game.
In all of that, Dismukes ended up having a ton of blocks that where very easy seals and instead of getting any movement he basically stood in the way and did little else. Because he does not get much movement in the run game against defenders who have no clue where the run is going, this is a concern as that he lacks the power needed for the NFL. Dismukes does a good job at the second level as he understands where to go with the angles needed to prevent linebackers from getting involved. However, at both the second level and at the line of scrimmage, defenders can shed him far too easily.
When Dismukes is in pass protection he does a good job of being in the right place, but his physical limitations let him down. If he is able to get stronger that will be his best chance since he gets his body into the right spots. The limitations of his physical strength and length don't allow him dominate the way he puts himself into position to.
Signature Stat: Dismukes allowed no more than one pressure a game.
Andy Gallik, Center, Boston College
Of all the players on the 'Buyer Beware' section, Andy Gallik is the one that I struggle to see at the next level. His lack of speed shows up on tape (at the NFL Combine he ran a 5.5 40) when Gallik gets to the second level he struggles to locate linebackers when they change direction on him — that often leaves him as he lunges. What makes this more concerning is that he doesn't make up for his lack of athleticism with power.
Far too often Gallik is moved into the point of attack causing the running back to find an alternate hole to run through. Gallik's concerning lack of athleticism and power showed up anytime he had to play against legitimate NFL prospects, and even when he played against lesser talent, his tape was underwhelming.
Signature Stat: Gallik had a 97.8 PBE the same as Cameron Erving.

It is easier (and less costly) to prevent illness than it is to cure it.
I am not a body with a spirit in it; I am a spirit inhabiting a body. This body is loaned to me free to use while I'm in it, and its care is my responsibility.
My Health is more than the care of the body ~ it involves my mind and spirit as well.
Health professionals can teach me much and help me to make informed decisions about my Health, but the ultimate responsibility rests with me.
A lifetime of neglect and abuse of my Health cannot be erased by one massage or one colonic, nor surgically removed, nor drugged away.
Medicine, drugs, and surgery are for repairs. They do NOT build Health. Only healthful living practices produce Health.
If I ignore my Health, it will go away.
Good Health is necessary for vital achievement in any area of my life.
Good Health does not just happen. I have to work for it.
Real Health-building results in feeling better.
Sometimes in the cleansing and rebuilding process I may feel worse for awhile. This is called "retracing" or "healing crisis".
In any type of sudden upheaval the person in better Health will have more stamina to survive.
Just "not being sick" does NOT constitute having Health!
I like myself and I am worth what it costs to build Health.
I am open and willing to learn what I have been doing with my body, mind, and spirit that does not build Health, and I am willing to replace these behaviors with those which do build Health.
I am committed to taking good care of the body loaned to me so that it will last longer and permit me to enjoy life more fully.
I am committed to building dynamic Health because it feels good and I like feeling good.
The payoff from reciting my list of complaints has ceased to satisfy me. I get more pleasure now out of telling others how good I feel.
I am willing to take responsibility for my Health.
And my mother's favorite: I choose to be well.
Do you have a great Health affirmation you'd like to add? Write me to share it. If I post it here I'll give you credit!

On Friday, Senator Lindsey Graham wowed the audience of 1,000 at the Silver Elephant Dinner which event is held every year in South Carolina. Also in attendance was RNC Chairman Reince Priebus, Senator Ted Cruz, former Senator Rick Santorum, and former Texas Governor Rick Perry. Still, Graham enjoyed the home field advantage with both his Southern drawl and his familiarity of the audience. Graham, a two-term senator, previously served as a state senator from 1995 to 2002.
During his speech, Graham roused the audience with the imperative: "Get Ready!" It was a reference to his forthcoming presidential run. It was also a reference to the new leadership direction he implied his presidency would provide. It was a warning shot to terrorists and rogue nations which currently benefit from tepid responses from the United States.
When it came time for Reince Priebus to address the audience, he mildly admonished the party for the way in which the 2012 presidential primaries were conducted. Marcio Alaor BMG was a bit shocked about that. He believes the 23 debates and lengthy primary season proved to be a disadvantage to the nominee. Priebus believes the reformed primary will allow the nominee to devote more time on the campaign trail.

Joely Fisher Net Worth
Joely Fisher Net Worth: Joely Fisher is an American actress who has a net worth of $10 million. Joely Fisher earned her net worth through her many acting roles in films and her guest roles on a variety of shows, as well as her roles on Broadway. Born on October 29, 1967, in Burbank, California, US, Joely Fisher is one of a handful Hollywood actresses to stand out as star of TV, musical theater and motion pictures. The daughter of onetime marrieds Connie Stevens and Eddie Fisher, she has learned the flip side of the seemingly shiny show business. Since her singer-addict father left them at the age of two, she was raised by her actress mother. Fisher grew up literally on the road, sleeping in orchestra pits during rehearsals. Thus, she first hit the stage at the age of seven in her mother's Las Vegas act. At the time she embarked on her acting career, Fisher attended Emerson College, which she left before graduating. In 1986, she made her movie debut as Averil in the comedy Pretty Smart, along with her younger sister, Tricia. At the same time, she earned a variety guest roles on TV shows like Blossom, Caroline in the City, The Outer Limits, Grace Under Fire and Coach. While her film credits have placed Joely opposite some of the finest actors in the industry, such as Jim Carrey in The Mask (1994), Steve Martin in Mixed Nuts (1994) and Nick Nolte in I'll Do Anything (1994). The same year, she landed her most prominent role to date, i.e., the role of Paige Clark on the sitcom Ellen. After playing that part for 4 years, Joely gave her crowning portrayal of Dr. Brenda Bradford in the feature film Inspector Gadget (1999) opposite Matthew Broderick. Meanwhile, she also made her Broadway debut as a replacement in the revival of Grease (1994), followed by another replacement part in the revival of Cabaret (1998). In the early 2000s, she starred in Lifetime network's drama series Wild Card, as well as had a recurring role on Desperate Housewives. From 2006 until 2010, Fisher could be seen opposite actor Brad Garrett as Joy Stark in the sitcom 'Til Death. Off-screen playing the roles of a wife and mother of three, Fisher has engaged in numerous philanthropic actions and she is an Artist Ambassador for the foundation Save the Children.

Princes of Dol Amroth
February, 25 2006
Questions about the life and times of Imrahil and his family can be asked here, including questions about Ultimatums, Kin-Strife and the shorter stories. Discussions about Brand can go either here or in the Best-Loved Son thread, since his stories sort of overlap both cycles.
Oh you guys it's great to be butting heads with you again, although I really should be focused on grading... heh heh...
Imhiriel wrote: drinking seems to me rather to be a sign of his "moping" *g* as a search for oblivion.
Yes, that's just it -- I see it as him trying to drown his sorrows too, and that's why I'm disappointed in him. I understand why Imrahil fell for Hethlin -- he'd been keeping his needs on a leash in that regard for a long time until he met her, in part because of his family obligations, and then probably out of habit. Plus many of the eligible women he'd have been exposed to over the years were probably blatant in their wish to be the new Princess of Dol Amroth. Who can blame him?
So while I totally see why he "woke up" when he met Hethlin, I'm disappointed that he hasn't had the self-awareness to recognize that part of the reason he feels so strongly about her might be because she was the first time he'd let his guard down on that front. I've also said this before: they really haven't had much one-on-one interaction, so I don't see how he could believe himself to be in love with her rather than merely infatuated. Infatuations can hit hard, I know! I still find myself falling prey to them now and then ... but as I get older I realize more that they're not necessarily a sign that something is "meant to be." Imrahil is no callow youth, convinced that because he's in love it must work out.
I'm disappointed that he's allowing himself to wallow in some degree of misery, to the point where he seeks oblivion in a bottle, rather than picking himself up, brushing himself off, and saying, "Right. OK, that's not going to be an option for me, let's move on." He's usually very pragmatic, a shrewd assessor of which way the wind is blowing, and quite good at engaging in merciless self-reflection, acknowledging mistakes, etc. Since Hethlin hasn't given any indication that she returns his feelings at all -- let alone with the intensity that he feels -- I'm just surprised and disappointed that he hasn't taken that in stride and moved on.
Because as it is, he is pressuring her. If Brand is sharp enough to pick up on Imrahil's feelings for Hethlin, you know that she is uncomfortably aware of them! I found myself relating to Hethlin during the kitchen encounter, remembering times that I've encountered men socially who had previously indicated a romantic interest in me that I didn't return. It's awkward, if you're someone who tries to be careful about others' feelings. You don't want to create even the slightest impression that you are encouraging their feelings but you don't want to be rude, either.
Sigh. Just sorry to see that it's come to this for Imrahil. I don't see what would have been wrong with a lusty dalliance with another woman (so long as no one got hurt -- a tall order, I know!). And come on, who wouldn't want to read some Imrahil smut! ;-)

Does Consumer Confidence Forecast Household Spending? The Euro Area Case
The following analysis, based on error correction models, suggests that consumer confidence, together with traditional macroeconomic variables, contains a forecasting and explicative power on consumption. By including consumer confidence in a consumption function, consumer confidence releases a significant coefficient. Such a confidence-augmented consumption model provides good forecasting results.

I love this store, they have great customer service. I once contacted them about color options on a dress and they said they were out of stock and it was discontinued, but that they would contact the designer and see if they had any fabric left to make one more for me! And then they gave me 25% off on top of that. Lurve!

I have not been to this property in close to 20 years. I remember then the rooms were dated and the meeting rooms were dark. I heard they had made some changes and they certainly have. The ballroom we were in for our event was very large and nice! Everything went as planned for our event.
The check in staff were very nice and helpful on check in. Our room was very large, and we just had a standard double queen room. But it is very wide which gave us plenty of room. The room had a large tv, microwave and refrigerator and a large closet. I am not sure I've had a closet that large. The bathroom was nice and clean, I wish we could have found the bath fan switch for our showers but we made do. Everything else worked in our room. Oh-the water park! This is the newest addition to the hotel. I would describe this as a medium size waterpark with a large toddler/preschool swim area with slides and other activities, a lazy river and two big slides for the bigger kids and another pool for some basketball, and the hot tub. So lots of things to do for the whole family. There is a lot more to do in the summer, but for a cold April weekend, this was just fine!
The only improvement I would suggest for this resort is to have more food options. This resort is out of town so its about a 10 minute drive to go get anything or you have it delivered. We went to the Lakeside Cafe which had a nice view of the lake but seemed over priced. $11 for a burger and $18 for chicken alfredo. I did not see any kids choices on the menu but I knew my child was eating the buffet so I didn't ask either. Some quick food options, other then the water park food, would be nice.
Overall we did enjoy our visit and our event booked this resort again next year, so we will be back!

First official day of the School Holidays
So glad someone in our household is tidy…
You know you've been hanging out too much with your two-year old when…
Riding near Cars with Idiots
A real pet peeve of mine is people who park in the middle of two parks, leaving maybe half-a-car space between the car at the back and the one in front of them. This seems to happen a lot outside school and it shits me to tears. I usually throw a greasy or two at the Offender, but there is clearly no acknowledgement that any misdemeanour has occurred.
It's like they're hedging their bets, or meandering around in their own little world where car parks aren't precious and the school bell doesn't ring at 3.30 on the dot and no-one is desperate to find a park.
On the plus side, I've become an epic reverse parker. Epic. People's sphincters tighten when I'm reverse parking. Check it.
Uh-oh, there's a preppie on my Mitsi
I hate it when that happens. The kid literally came out of nowhere. He lived across the road from the school, had been dropped off by his mum, decided he was going to just pop home for a cuppa (no, made that up), then decided to run across the road back to the school. He didn't look for cars whatsoever, and by the time he got to the road had gotten a fair bit of speed on him.
He was lucky I saw him and braked when I did, as I got him on the far left of the bonnet and just kinda pushed him onto the road. He had a bad scrape on his face, but he was otherwise unhurt, lucky bastard. I got out of the car (stopped in the middle of the road, which made me a lot of school mum friends) and was screaming (ahem, no, I was in perfect control of my banshee-chords) where was his MUM!!!
Another mum came across the dastardly scene, knew who he was and where he lived, so we both delivered him home to a very shaken parent (clearly not me).
After the incident, my heart returned to its normal rate and I checked that there were no preppie marks on the bonnet. All clear. Preppies and cars just do not mix, people.

Summer and winter sports
|People all over the world are very fond of sports and games. That is one of the things in which people of every nationality and class are united. The most popular outdoor winter sports are shooting, hunting, hockey and, in the countries where the weather is frosty and there is much snow - skating, skiing and tobogganing. Summer affords excellent opportunities for swimming, boating, yachting, cycling, gliding and many others sports. Among outdoor games football takes place in public interests; this game is played in all the countries of the world. The other games in different countries are cricket, volley-ball, basket-ball, and so on. Badminton is also popular both with young and old. Over the last few years aerobics has become popular with young girls and women. Aerobics helps them to be slim, healthy and strong.
Kazakhstanis consistently perform well in Olympic competitions, especially in boxing. This has brought some attention to the Central Asian nation, and increased awareness of its existence in the Western world.
Kazakh boxers are generally well known in the world. In last 3 Olympic games their performance was assessed as one of the best and they had more medals than any countries in the world except Cuba and Russia (in all three games). In 1996 and 2004 two Kazakh boxers (Vasiliy Jirov in 1996 and Bakhtiyar Artayev in 2004) were recognized as the best boxers for their techniques with the Val Barker trophy, awarded to the best boxer of the tournament.
Kazakh boxers performed well in the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia. Two boxers, Bekzat Sattarkhanov and Yermakhan Ibraimov, earned gold medals. Another two boxers, Bulat Jumadilov and Mukhtarkhan Dildabekov, earned silver medals.
It should also be noted that Oleg Maskaev, born in Zhambyl, representing Russia, was the WBC Heavyweight Champion after knocking out Hasim Rahman on August 12, 2006.
The skier Vladimir Smirnov won seven medals in total in the 1988, 1994 and 1998 Winter Olympics, including a gold in the 50 km competition in 1994. He also won 11 medals in total in World Championships from 1987 to 1995, including four gold medals. During the first part of his active career he represented the Soviet Union, in the later part Kazakhstan.
In linguistics, an auxiliary (also called helping verb , helper verb , auxiliary verb , or verbal auxiliary ) is a verb functioning to give further semantic or syntactic information about the main or full verb following it. In English, the extra meaning an auxiliary verb imparts alters the basic form of the main verb to have one or more of the following functions: passive , progressive , perfect , modal , or dummy .
In English, every clause has a finite verb which consists of a full verb (a non-auxiliary verb) and optionally one or more auxiliary verbs, each of which is a separate word. Examples of finite verbs include write (no auxiliary verb), have written (one auxiliary verb), and have been written (two auxiliary verbs).
There is a syntactic difference between an auxiliary verb and a full verb; that is, each has a different grammatical function within the sentence. In English, and in many other languages, there are some verbs that can act either as auxiliary or as full verbs, such as be ("I am writing a letter" vs "I am a postman") and have ("I have written a letter" vs "I have a letter"). In the case of be , it is sometimes ambiguous whether it is auxiliary or not; for example, "The ice cream was melted " could mean either "Someone/something melted the ice cream " (in which case melt would be the main verb) or "the ice cream was mostly liquid " (in which case be would be the main verb).
There are many auxiliary verbs in English, the primary auxiliary verbs are to be and to have , other major auxiliarys are shall, will, may and can, there are also numerous other lesser used verbs such as, do, must, ought, used and dare.[1] [2] Auxiliary words are formed by conjugation into the different forms: am, is, are, shall, should, be, being, been, was, were, will, would, has, have, having, had, do, does, did, can, could, may, might, must, ought(to), get, got, gotten.
Modal Verbs
We find the following modal verbs in English: can, may, must, ought, shall, should, will, need and dare . Besides, to have and to be in some of their uses are also classed among modal verbs. A modal verb in combination with the infinitive forms a modal compound predicate .
Modal verbs are defective verbs since they lack many forms characteristic of regular verbs: they have no -s in the third person singular in the present tense and no verbal, so they have no analytical forms; some of them lack the form of the past tense.
Modal verbs have the following peculiarities:
they are followed by the infinitive without the particle to (with the exception of ought, to have and to be );
their interrogative and negative forms are built up without the auxiliary do.
Most of the verbs have more than one meaning. Each of their meanings is characterized by a specific usage.
Some of the meanings may be found in all kinds of sentences; others occur only in affirmative of interrogative or negative sentences;
Different meanings may be associated with different forms of the infinitive - simple and perfect (both in the active and passive forms), continuous and perfect continuous;
If the modal verbs have more than one form (can - could, may - might, will - would, also the verbs to have and to be ), their different meanings are not necessarily found in all those forms.
The use of modal verbs is in most cases independent of the structure of the sentence: the use of this of that modal verb is determined by the attitude of the speaker towards the facts contained in the sentence. In this case we may speak of the free or independent use of modal verbs.
In linguistics and grammar, a pronoun is a pro-form that substitutes for a noun (or noun phrase) with or without a determiner, such as you and they in English. The replaced phrase is called the antecedent of the pronoun. A pronoun used for the item questioned in a question is called an interrogative pronoun, such as who .
For example, consider the sentence "Lisa gave the coat to Phil." All three nouns in the sentence can be replaced by pronouns: "She gave it to him." If the coat, Lisa, and Phil have been previously mentioned, the listener can deduce what the pronouns she , it and him refer to and therefore understand the meaning of the sentence. However, if the sentence "She gave it to him" is the first presentation of the idea, none of the pronouns have antecedents and each pronoun is therefore ambiguous. Pronouns without antecedents also called unprecursed pronouns.

Pursuing Your Passion – Is it Worth the Effort?
If you have a job and you think you will be able to keep it for few years you should be grateful. If you have job and you enjoy doing it, you are in an elite group for which many people strive for. Each individual is different and everyone have their own priorities in life. Doesn't matter what we like to do, everybody needs money to have a good life style. So whether you like what you do or not, you have to have a vehicle which generates income.
I was told by many people that they don't necessarily love what they do, but they do it because they need money. When they have money, then they can do the things they really love. A agree. The ideal situation is getting paid for what you love to do. Many people get stuck in jobs they don't necessarily like, but they do it because it pays the bills and provides decent life style.
But even if you find yourself in that situation now, you should find ways to do what you really love to do. If your resolve is stronger and continuously thinking about how make it happen, you will find ways and meet people who will help you move in that direction. It also requires courage and self confidence. I know somebody who did masters in computer science and moved on to do masters in fine arts (MFA) in film making.
Good Resources
It is not easy to land in a job which happens to be also your passion. Most of us readily don't know in what area we are good at and what our calling is. Some times it takes some soul searching and deep thinking on your part. Find out all the things you are good at and see what comes on top of that. Check with your spouse or close friends and see what input they will give you.
The fact is finding out what you are good at is only half the story. Once you know what you are good at, you need to pursue it and it won't be easy most of the time. That's why many people continue doing job they don't like, because it is not easy to move out of the comfort zone and venture into new territory.
Once you decide to pursue your passion, you need to make decisions which may not be comfortable for you and your family. You need to find some ways to hone your skills in the field you have chosen to be great at. As your resolve gets stronger, you will have different hurdles as if somebody is testing how strong your determination is. If you persist and keep on trekking forward, you will enjoy the rewards and your determination and hard work will be paid off. You will find meaning and fulfillment in what you do while positively contributing to the society.
After everything is said and done, what you think about your life is far more important than what anyone else thinks. Live your life the way you choose rather than being dictated by somebody or circumstances you think you cannot change. When you pursue your passion, you will bring the best in yourself. You live the life on your terms and enjoying every minute of it.

There are few major Australian companies that have had their shares subjected to as many sell ratings over the years as Amcor (AMC). Over the last 2 or 3 years when the stock market was booming almost nobody rated AMC as a buy, and more often than not it was marked as a sell. (and seldom a hold) But there just might be some life left in the company yet.
Of course Amcor has had some nasty issues to deal with such as an ACCC investigation into price fixing, a strong Australian dollar,higher oil prices and some poorly performing business units. But under Ken MacKenzie the company has begun over the last couple of years to sort itself out, and slowly there are signs that "Way Forward" business improvement program launched in 2005 is starting to reap rewards.
In addition since the company earns most of it's money offshore, earnings are getting a boost from the weaker Australian dollar and the fall in the oil price is also helping as well.
This year the Amcor share price has been knocked around like most other stocks but recently it has shown signs of recovery and if my eyes don't deceive me, there is even signs that an upward trend is emerging as we can see on the chart below.
Amcor Limited (AMC) vs All Ordinaries Chart
Amcor is also one of those ASX listed stocks that can help to diversify a shares portfolio because of the company's exposure to Asia, Europe and the U.S. (as opposed to having a portfolio full of Australian focused companies such as Woolworths)
If you believe that the global economy will recover over the next few years, then a global packaging giant like Amcor might be a good stock to look at while the markets are down. (see Why the global economy will recover) As always please do plenty of your own research and seek professional advice as required.
(Please read our blog disclaimer and note that the author of this blog has an indirect interest in AMC shares)

Radio station management confirmed that the station went black earlier today. 1340 first signed on in 1940. The station had recently become an ESPN affiliate. Channel 7 reporter Dave Elias notes that the stationWSTV has apparently been at odds with the supposed owner of the property where the transmitter sits on Altamont Hill. The site is that of WTOV-TV's (9) studios and transmitter site. Also broadcasting from that site is WOGH-FM (103.5). Both 103.5 and Channel 9 have carried the WSTV callsigns at one time or another. 103.5 and 1340 remain sister stations under the Keymarket ownership while WTOV-TV is owned by Cox.

Okay, I've been meaning to post write about the rash of chupacabra news over the last few weeks, but I got busy with Halloween-type things, so here's a make up. First off, I assume if you're reading this blog, you are familiar with the story of "el chupacabra," a.k.a. "the goatsucker." In a nutshell: The first stories of a mystery beast attacking goats and draining them of their blood came in the late 1980s-early 1990s from Latin America -- Puerto Rico and Mexico, in particular, seemed like chupacabra hotbeds. Since then, the legend of the chupacabra has grown and spread like wildfire across the globe, inspiring dozens of toys, books and of course, movies! Over the years, there have been numerous sightings, including this piece of video -- if you haven't seen, it was taken last year in Texas by a police deputy who was driving along a back road when he saw an odd creature running along the roadside and activated his dashboard camera. Run Chupa, run! It subsequently was "identified" as a pit bull of sorts, although the biologist who analyzed the tape didn't seem to be 100 percent sure about what breed it was. "The probability of it being a mixed breed dog is higher than anything else," he said. Anyway, the story of the chupacabra only continues to grow, and just a few weeks ago came this story about an alleged chupacabra caught and stuffed in Texas. There's been a lot of speculation as to what exactly this specimen is -- some think it's a mutant variety of coyote; others suggest that it's a type of Xolo, a hairless Mexican dog. Supposedly, hair and tissue samples were taken of the creature and sent out for analysis, although before too much analysis could be done, the specimen was sold to -- of all places -- The Lost World Museum in Phoenix, New York. And this is where the story gets really weird -- as if a tale about a mystery blood-sucking cryptodog carcass could get odder -- it's a creationist museum!
From the story: Chupacabra or not, museum owner John Adolfi wanted to exhibit the beast as an example of the fallibility of science. His Lost World Museum (named after Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's 1912 novel in which dinosaurs still exist) features items and artifacts that he believes proves that scientists don't have all the answers. A creationist, Adolfi believes that the Earth was created 6,000 to 10,000 years ago by God. He believes that by displaying the chupacabra, he will cast doubt on the credibility of mainstream scientists: If scientists scoff at the chupacabra's existence, could they be wrong about evolution and the age of the Earth?Well, if it does turn out that the chupacabra somehow proves creationism, that would just ... suck. In the meantime, we'll post any new news we hear about el chupacabra.

Cuban President Raul Castro appeared to toss a wrench into normalization talks with his surprise announcement Wednesday that the U.S. government must first give up the military base at Guantanamo Bay, rescind the congressionally mandated trade embargo and compensate Cuba for damages.
Good luck with that.
It's unclear how firmly Castro will hold to those demands, which he made during a summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States in Costa Rica. The U.S. State Department had no immediate response, but the best way to look at Castro's proclamation is through a domestic lens. The Castro regime is walking a line between wanting better economic ties with the U.S. while ceding as little as possible at home.
"There is this huge expectation of change and this expectation has been set off by the president's announcement," John Caulfield, who led the U.S. Interests Section in Havana until last year, told the Associated Press. The Cuban leaders feel "the constant need to tell their people nothing's going to change ... the more the Cubans feel obligated to defend the status quo and to say that nothing's going to change, the more pressure it indicates to me is on them to make these changes, partly on the economic side but I would also say on the political side."
The underlying motives for normalizing relations remain. From the U.S. standpoint, it's been a failed Cold War-era policy that continues more out of inertia than as part of a relevant bit of geopolitical gamesmanship. In fact, were it not for the political power of the anti-Castro community in Florida -- which has been waning as part of a generational shift -- there may well have been a move toward rapprochement much earlier than this.
But it's also in the Cubans' interest to move ahead. As Joshua Keating noted at Slate last month, Castro is likely to turn over power to a new generation in 2018, a transition that could become rocky if Cuba's economy remains in its current low-wattage condition. Castro has already pushed an "update" to the communist economy by loosening some private ownership and free-market restrictions, though the changes are a far cry from reforms by other communist governments, such as China and Vietnam.
It's hard to see Castro suddenly reversing course after he and President Obama announced a thaw in the half-century standoff between the two neighbors. Obama has since loosened some travel and business restrictions, and Castro has released some political prisoners (though he dragged his feet), and high-level delegations from both countries met in Havana recently to discuss how to move forward toward a full restoration of diplomatic ties.
Obama has said the status of Guantanamo Bay military base, which has been under U.S. control for more than a century, was not part of the discussions on normalization, and he has no reason to entertain that conversation now (even if the base has outlived its strategic usefulness). While Obama has already urged Congress to drop the embargo, paying compensation for "damages" suffered over 50 years of bad blood isn't going to happen.
Castro isn't likely to intentionally derail the reconciliation over these issues. But tossing up unexpected hurdles won't help with members of Congress who already distrust him. And it's Congress that Castro needs to persuade to lift the embargo.

Does it exist? My son has asked for a sinple yellow cake with vanilla frosting for his 14th birthday. I'm good on the cake, which uses lots of yolks, and I'd like to use the leftover whites in an italian buttercream, but every recipe I can find calls for tons of butter. I know I've made one that didn't have that much butter in the past, but have lost the recipe.
We're also a minimal frosting family--just a scrape thru the middle, around the sides and over the top does it, so would appreciate a recipe that can be frozen if we don't use all of it, or reduced without affecting quality.

What is the origin of Osun Osogbo festival? Find out many interesting facts here!
The goal of Osun Osogbo festival is to celebrate Osun, the river goodness. The festival takes place around the groove in Osogbo, Osun state. The place covers 75 hectares of ring- fence forest.
Osun is the spiritual mother of Osogbo Township and personification of the 'water of life'. Osogbo Township is a scared forest, which is the residence of the fertility goddess. The forest is full of works of art, shrines, sculptures and sanctuaries. In the forest, there is a sacred groove, an area of immense spiritual importance.

Osun Osogbo festival history
The founders of Osogbo were hunters who migrated because they were looking for water. Therefore they settled around the Osun groove. When they were cutting trees and weeds to get water, one of the trees fell on a pot belonging to the goddess. The Osun goodness was very angry, so the hunters appeased her. From that time they pledged annual sacrifice.
Since then, Osogbo has remained a progressive, peaceful, and benevolent city without pestilence or war.
How is it now?
The Osun Osogbo festival is held every year in August. The groove is seen as the reposition of kingship, as well as the spiritual heart of the community. The festival lasts for two weeks and starts with the traditional cleansing of the town called "Iwopopo." This is followed by the lighting of 500-year-old sixteen point lamp three days later, called "Olojumerindinlogun."
The finale of the festival is a processing of the whole city, led by the maid, Arugba, propelled by Yeye Osun, and the committee of priestesses headed by the Oba and priest, all of accompanied by the singing, drumming, and dancing.
The Arugba takes the people age-long prayers to the groove in a calabash which can only be carried by a virgin. This is the sign of purity. The calabash is filled with dishes such as eko (baked millet), moin-moin (baked bean), and oil to the river. At the same time, the people of the town follow her. They pray for their wishes for the year. The volunteers or Arugba also carry the calabash. The river goddess, in turn, grants her wisdom and power.
