Prince William + Kate Middleton Welcome Their Royal Baby
Hear ye, hear ye! On this day, July 22, Prince William and yon wife Kate Middleton have successfully created the third successor in line for the British throne: a (still unnamed) baby boy.
That's right, kids. The royal bun has officially exited the royal oven. And Kanye had nothing to do with it.
According to Kensington Palace, the tot was born at 4:24pm local time — that's 11:24am ET — and weighed 8 lbs. 6 oz.
Previously, we were told the news would be announced via royal easel (as was the case with Prince William), with the doctor present for the delivery signing a proclamation that was then rushed to be set up in front of Buckingham Palace for all the commoners to oooh and aaah over.
Supposedly, the royal palace did not want to announce of the birth via Twitter in order to maintain "'the theatre' of a genuine royal occasion." (Aka "we don't have any real power, at least let us have this.") But according to the Clarence House Twitter feed, it looks like they broke with tradition, announcing the news after sending out an emailed press release.
But eventually, the announcement did go up via easel. Here's a shot of that:
On July 2, reporters started lining up outside St. Mary's Hospital in Paddington to prep for the baby's birth, with parking suspensions around the hospital in effect until the end of the month. Kate finally went into labor earlier today, and wound up delivering her little boy in the Lindo Wing of the hospital — where both her husband and his brother Harry were born.
As you are no doubt aware, William, 30, and Kate, 31, married in grand fashion on April 29, 2011, after which the media began acting like the Royal Gynecologist and engaging in endless speculation about the state of the new Duchess' womb. And in December of last year, their persistence paid off when Buckingham Palace announced Kate was indeed expecting.
Her pregnancy was not without its problems, though — she was hospitalized a few times for severe morning sickness, and one of those stays resulted in a radio prank gone horribly awry.
But never mind all that. For now, congratulations to the brand new momma, papa and their bouncing baby future monarch, the Prince of Cambridge.
Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge was safely delivered of a son at 4.24pm

Low Fat Creamy Blue Cheese Dressing
posted April 10, 2010 by Gina
Nothing beats the flavor of homemade salad dressing. Making your own salad dressing gives you control of what ingredients go into it. Serve this with a wedge of iceberg lettuce, as a dip for skinny buffalo wings or one of my favorite ways to enjoy this is on a roast beef sandwich on a good whole wheat crusty bread with arugula.

Ghanaian Minister visit to INTERPOL focuses on ways to enhance cooperation
LYON, France – With Ghana selected as a pilot country for a number of projects to combat transnational organized crime in West Africa and beyond, identifying additional ways where national law enforcement can work more closely with INTERPOL was the focus of a visit by Ghana's Minister of Interior to the world police body's General Secretariat headquarters.
Minister Benjamin Kunbour met with INTERPOL Secretary General Ronald K. Noble to discuss a range of initiatives where Ghana will participate, including the INTERPOL Stolen and Lost Firearms System (SLARM) and the West African Police Information System (WAPIS) a joint INTERPOL/ECOWAS/European Union project which aims to facilitate the collection, management, sharing and analysis of police information on a national, regional and global level to more effectively combat drug trafficking, illegal immigration, money laundering and weapons trafficking.
Also on the agenda was the possibility of Ghana hosting a Maritime Piracy Centre and ways in which INTERPOL could support its development. INTERPOL's long standing commitment to tackling maritime piracy saw the launch this year of a project by the world police body to provide essential equipment and training to law enforcement across East African countries with EUR 1.6 million funding from the EU.
Accompanied by Director General of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Ghana Police Service, Prosper Kwame Agblor, Minister Kunbour was also updated on the success of Operation Bia II, conducted in Ghana earlier this year which resulted in the rescue of 116 children who had been trafficked to work in the fishing industry and nearly 30 arrests and convictions.

News Corp. executives have confirmed they are considering dividing the company in two. One new company would hold all of News Corp.'s profitable entertainment and television outlets. The other would hold all of its newspaper and publishing outlets. The move is seen as a way for the Murdoch family to hang on to its less profitable and troubled newspapers while pleasing investors with a newly independent and far more profitable entertainment company.

Gitzo G1257 Mountaineer Reporter Carbon 6X. The Carbon 6X G1257 tripod offers the most satisfying compromise between stability, maximum load and weight. A great choice for digital SLR, 35mm, and medium format cameras up to lightweight 6x6 format.
Gitzo's new generation of carbon fiber tripods (from Series 00 to 2) incorporates a revolutionary design process that reduces overall tripod weight up to 17%* without sacrificing strength or stability.
One-third thinner than the existing tube and composed of 6 X-crossed layers, this multilayer carbon tube is a new technology which allows the tripod to have the same unparalleled performance of the well known Gitzo 1.5mm tube while offering a 30% weight reduction.
Along with the Anti-Leg Rotation (ALR) system, this new range of carbon fiber tripods is another first from Gitzo. All mountaineer tripods in Series 1 and Series 2 are fitted with an anti-rotation grooved center column for increased stability. In addition, all carbon center columns are reinforced at the top for increased durability.
Unparalleled Strength
Gitzo carbon tubes use an exclusive process based on pull winding of long carbon fibers that are precisely wrapped and combined under high pressure and temperature with epoxy resin to a 1mm wall thickness. This manufacturing process ensures stiff, light tubes resistant to bending, have good tensile and compression strength, a high degree of stability in extreme temperatures, absorbs vibration and withstands fatigue better than other carbon fiber tube processes.
Cutting Edge
Carbon fiber Rapid center columns are now grooved to prevent rotation and increase stability. A stainless steel weight retractable hook is attached to the base of the center column, providing a convenient place to add extra stability in windy conditions.
Mountaneer 6X tripods are constructed using a "screw thread and adhesive" dual jointing technology pioneered by Gitzo. Called "H.I.S." (Hybrid Interconnecting System), thus construction technique provides greater strength and stability.
(*Although tubes are 30% lighter, actual weight savings vary by model based on castings, bushings etc.)

Light weight and very portable
I still can't believe that I actually paid over $500 for a tripod! But, when you do the honest research and review the other available products in this category, you may come to the realization that this is one incredible piece of equipment. It is really light weight and amazingly adjustable and portable. I read Thom Hogans review of lenses, tripods, etc. and he put it into focus about as good as anyone. A good tripod is essential to get the best possible results from your camera equipment!! He even states that you should first invest in a good quality tripod such as this one before buying expensive lenses. I have now used this tripod with all my Nikon lenses (18-200 VR -without using VR, 18-135, 18-70, and 55-200) and confirm that the results are truely amazing compared to handheld pictures. It takes a fair amount of patience and discipline but the results are really rewarding.
Now that you have a quality piece of equipment in the tripod, you have to get a really good ball head to complete the picture (pun intended).
So, I now spent another $315 on a ball head?! I must have lost my mind in this advanced age and now retired mode.
I bought several ball heads before deciding that the Novoflex MagicBall MB 50 (made in Germany) was the one for me. The design in actually inverted to the normal design with the ball mounted to the base and the plate attached to the camera. For some reason this ball head is not included in this forum which I believe is a disservice to the readers. I love the simplicity of this ball head and the speed with which I can adjust it to any desired configuration. It is very simple with only one adjustment mechanism for both axis. It is great for a relatively light weight lense/camera combination but somewhat limited for truely professional heavy equipment.
I have not yet used this new equipment on vacation or an extended shoot but am looking forward to better weather this Spring to get out there and use it.
I suggest that SLR Gear include this ball head in their review category as it is really unique and a quality piece of equipment.
I can confirm that you really NEED to buy a good tripod/ball head combination if you are serious about getting great results from your equipment. The tripod and ball head will still be part of your basic configuration long after you buy new cameras as they appear in the future. Do yourself a favor and read Thom Hogans review on tripods before buying any other camera equipment.

This would not be possible without the core userbase. I would like to thank each and every one of you by giving back to the community that has given me so much. To be clear, BimmerBoost does not have to do this. BimmerBoost is not as profitable as the larger sites (although gaining, at a surprising rate). Yet, the administration here has absolutely no problem giving back to the community. This should speak volumes in of itself and make users question just how much other sites actually care about their users and their community or if their users are nothing more than a commodity. BimmerBoost is showing its gratitude in agreeably a very generous fashion.
This giveaway is for a Stage I Hybrid Vargas Turbo upgrade (approximately $1699 value):
Stage 1 Hybrid upgrade: We start with a freshly rebuilt stock unit using all OEM spec internals, carefully machine the OEM compressor and bearing housings, to accept a TD04 14T compressor wheel. For the turbine side we clip the stock wheel to 7 degrees, we also remove the stock waste gate arm and flapper valve prone to rattling and boost loss issues and upgrade it with a 100% stainless steel piece to eliminate all of these known problems. These units also come with brand new factory OEM waste gate actuators. We chose the 14T wheel for the stage 1's because it is a much better match to the stock turbine than the 15T compressor wheel even though it means we have to set up differently to machine the different stages. Stage 1 is the perfect cost effective alternatives to stock OEM replacement turbochargers
The value of these turbos can also be subtracted from a set of Vargas Stage 2 or Vargas Stage 3 turbos as credit towards those more expensive upgrades. This promotion will run from 12/13/2012 until 1/15/13 at 12:00 AM PST.

Example: You enter with 10.5 rep points, contest ends and you have 20.5 rep points at 12:00 AM PST. This would equate to 10 entries. The more entries, the better your odds of winning. If in this example the rep point count was 20.4 it would only count as 9 entries as it is every whole rep point, no exceptions.
The winner will be drawn at random at a time and date of the administrator's choosing after 1/15/13. Anyone caught cheating will be permanently IP banned, disqualified, and publicly humiliated. Any member can be disqualified from the contest at any time for any reason of the administrator's choosing. Reputation points gained for referrals will be disabled during the time of the contest.
Good luck everyone! And Happy Holidays, from the GermanBoost Network.

US Youth Soccer announces the regional winners of the 2012 US Youth Soccer Boys and Girls Competitive Coach of the Year awards. The Competitive Coach of the Year is awarded to a competitive coach for both a boys team and a girls team for his or her coaching activities, sportsmanship, player development, personal coaching development and citizenship.

US Youth Soccer Workshop
in Indianapolis, held in conjunction with the NSCAA Convention.
Brief bios of the regional winners are below based on the submitted nomination forms.
Boys Competitive Coach of the Year regional winners:
Region I – William Rimmer – Wilmington, Del.
It's the ideas of team first and respect for teammates and opponents that Bill Rimmer teaches his players at Delaware Saengerbund. He's also had success teaching them lessons and skills on the field, as two of his players have been selected to the US Youth Soccer ODP Region I team and seven to Delaware ODP teams. In 2012, his DSB Kickers won their third US Youth Soccer Delaware State Championship and he continues to provide a positive learning environment for his players to improve.
Region II – Mike Dean – Omaha, Neb.
A coach who cares about matters on and off the field, Mike Dean promotes fair play and doesn't tolerate unsportsmanlike behavior. He tries to give his players the playing time and opportunities to reach their highest potential. Dean coaches the physical and mental aspects of the game, and four of his players at the Omaha Football Club have committed to NCAA Division I college programs. Three of his players were selected to the US Youth Soccer Region II ODP squad, and Dean also coaches the Nebraska ODP team.
Region III – Pearse Tormey – Greer, S.C.
Pearse Tormey was a two-time All-American at Clemson University and a part of its 1987 national championship team. He has been coaching in the Greenville, S.C. area for 22 years. As a coach for the Carolina Elite Soccer Association 95 Boys Premier team, he guided the squad to four consecutive state championships and a Region III Championship in 2012. He always promotes good sportsmanship and also coaches the club's TOPSoccer program.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Students from all across Tennessee have been in Nashville to compete in the state level of the 25th annual National Geographic Bee, and a seventh-grader from Robertsville Middle School in Oak Ridge has taken top honors.
Adithyan Sujithkumar won $100 Friday and a National Geographic DVD and will represent Tennessee in national finals next month in Washington, D.C. College scholarships up to $25,000 will be given to first-, second- and third-place winners, and the national winner will travel with a parent or guardian to the Galapagos Islands.
Questions are prepared by the National Geographic Society, and the contest is designed to encourage teachers to include geography in their classrooms, spark student interest and increase public awareness.
Schools with students in grades 4 through 8 are eligible to compete.

There are three runs and the cars are fairly evenly matched although the edge goes to the SLS which is able to pull in each race. Even in the third run when the 458 gets a slight jump the SLS is able to pull slightly past. It's close, but surprisingly the SLS takes it.
There are test numbers out there showing the Ferrari running close to high 10's @ almost 130 miles per hour. Just goes to show Ferrari might send ringers as they have been known to skew numbers in tests in their favor. Car and Driver got 11.6@126 for the SLS in the 1/4 mile versus 11.5@128 for the 458 Italia.
What could explain this? The SLS is likely stronger from a roll than it is from a stop and the 458 gets a benefit in the 1/4 mile due to its weight plus mid-engine layout and launch control providing a better start from a stop.
Simply an excellent video courtesy of user @AWD75 and it sheds some light on a very controversial video posted previously of a claimed "stock" SLS AMG versus a 458 Italia. In that video, the SLS crushes the 458 Italia and the conclusion was that the SLS could not be stock. With this video as support, this network stands by that previous claim. The previous video has since been set to private.

Counter-Intuitive Time Management
Innovative Techniques to Tame a Never-Ending Start-Up To Do List
By Linda Walker
The absolute BIGGEST challenge that entrepreneurs, artists, authors, and other creative geniuses that come to me for help is productivity. Some know they need help with time management techniques. Others are struggling, but they haven't discovered that poor time management is the source of their frustration.
By asking a few questions, I zero in on the source of their misery, and evaluate whether they can benefit from the special time management techniques I teach. I just look for certain things they have in common.
4 Things All Entrepreneurs, Authors, and Other Creative Geniuses That Need Time Management Help Have in Common:
• They are amazingly creative yet they feel like underachievers because even though they generate brilliant ideas with jaw-dropping ease, they struggle to act on them.
• These "live-wire" geniuses are adventurous, ambitious, and energetic. They'll start a hundred projects, but then bog down because of indecision, procrastination, or a feeling of being overwhelmed.
• They search relentlessly for new time management tips and try anything to improve their time management skills regardless of past struggles, but standard, "common sense" time management techniques just don't work.
• Despite their best efforts, they've accumulated a never-ending To Do list (I call it their To Do "book") and they're frustrated with time management techniques that don't work.
These thrill-seeking rebels share another characteristic. Each was diagnosed with ADD or ADHD as a child, has adult ADHD, or exhibits many adult ADHD traits. Their brains work differently than most people. But, as soon as they turn on to my counter-intuitive time management techniques, they experience a dramatic turnaround almost overnight.
See, you have to understand that your productivity depends on your mental and physical energy. Yes, you produce less when you're tired, but your energy levels fluctuate far more than you realize.
How Your Energy Levels Affect Your Productivity
• At times, you have ample mental energy. You can laser-focus on anything that interests you, you're amazingly productive, and you keep going long after other people are exhausted.
• Other times, you have plenty of physical energy, but your brain is also racing. You can't concentrate. You're eager to move and go through short (physical) tasks with ease.
• You need time to recharge. Your brain isn't a plough-horse, plodding sedately. It's a racehorse, capable of stunning bursts of power and speed. Like a racehorse, you must recharge between races.
• You also have your own unique energy fluctuations between these that create periods when you're better at some tasks than you are at others.
Your energy fluctuations follow an identifiable pattern. When my clients track their energy level fluctuations at work and at play, within a week they have an accurate map of their ...

Slideboards for Cross-training
Aug. 18, 2010
What Size Slideboard Should I Get?
Hi, Bill: We can't do a lot of inline skating here during our cold and snowy winters. So I'm thinking of buying a slideboard. I've heard they are a good way to keep in skating shape during the off-season. Can you please advise me on how long a slideboard I should get. I'm 183cm (6 feet) tall. The slideboards on the market are between 7 and 10 feet. Best regards - Tõnis from Estonia
Ask the Coach!
• Ask Bill a question!
• Go to the Ask Bill Begg! Archive .
Hi, Tõnis from Estonia: I've got to admit I've never been a big fan of slideboards. But that may have more to do with geography than anything else. I've done most of my coaching in Australia, New Zealand, Colombia and, in the summer, Europe.
In those climates, we could almost always train outside. So we didn't need slideboards. My only real experience with slideboards came in the early days of inline skating when we were experimenting with them.
Slideboards are a popular tool for skaters in cold climates, like yours. But I do have one concern about them: the potential for injuring your ankles by repeatedly slamming them into the side rails of the slideboard at the end of each stroke.
So don't be too aggressive on a slideboard....

G-20 Seeks Common Ground on Currencies After Yen SplitIlya Arkhipov, Raymond Colitt and Jeff Black
Global finance chiefs are seeking to find common ground on currencies after an effort to calm tensions between rich governments backfired.
Group of 20 finance ministers and central bankers begin talks in Moscow today with investors seeking clarity on how comfortable they are with a sliding yen. Questions are being asked after the Group of Seven united around a pledge not to target exchange rates only to divide over its meaning for Japan.
"We have to get to the bottom of this, of course, listen to our Japanese colleagues and how they explain this and what decisions they will take and what exchange-rate policy they will follow," Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said in an interview yesterday before hosting the meeting. He said the G-20 should adopt more "specific" language opposing exchange-rate interference in a statement to be released tomorrow.
At stake is how much to endorse Japan's use of fresh monetary stimulus to propel its economy from 15 years of deflation without signaling support for a weaker yen, which may hurt exporters elsewhere and prompt retaliation. The yen strengthened for a fourth day today against the dollar.
Japan is in the spotlight after the yen tumbled about 12 percent in the past three months on the bet that new Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will pursue a campaign commitment to demand more aggressive monetary policy. That has led to concern elsewhere he's chasing a cheaper yen, potentially triggering a so-called currency war if others do the same.
G-20 Pledge
In a draft of the communique dated Feb. 11 and obtained by Bloomberg News yesterday, the G-20 officials reaffirmed a pledge to "refrain from competitive devaluation." They said monetary policy "should be directed toward domestic price stability, while continuing to support economic recovery."
The draft predates by one day a statement by the G-7, composed of the major industrial nations, which committed not to make exchange rates a goal of policy. Confusion then broke out as one G-7 official said it was meant as a criticism of excessive moves in the yen and Japan's occasional willingness to guide investors on its desired value. A U.K. official then denied any country was being singled out.
While Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney says the G-20 should embrace the G-7's position, differences within the smaller group may limit the chances for reaching a consensus, and China may resist given its policy of managing the yuan's value.
Not Enough
Brazilian Finance Minister Guido Mantega, who coined the phrase "currency war" in 2010, said all nations would lose from a spiral of devaluations, adding that it's not enough for the G-20 countries to say they'll prohibit such a situation. Europe should ease fiscal restraints, he said in an interview in Moscow.
"If the G-20 statement just reaffirms its existing stance, or even just adopts the slightly more specific G-7 statement, then we would expect the major currency trends to be resumed," Morgan Stanley foreign-exchange strategists led by Hans Redeker said in a report to clients. "The major global policy makers can all claim that their currency regimes are consistent with the G-20 and G-7 statements and that policy is domestically oriented."
Yen's Decline
Japanese policy makers say the yen's recent decline is a reversal of its 2012 surge and a byproduct -- not a centerpiece -- of their policies to bolster the third-largest economy.
While other nations including the U.S. have also embraced looser monetary policy to aid their economies, Japanese officials have at times commented on specific levels of the yen. Deputy Economy Minister Yasutoshi Nishimura said in a Jan. 24 interview that it wouldn't be a problem if the currency reached 100 to the dollar.
Indonesian central bank Deputy Governor Hartadi Sarwono said in Moscow today that a stronger Japanese economy should be welcomed as a boost for global growth.
"If the Japanese increase their domestic demand, it will help Indonesia, especially from the export side," Sarwono said. "Up to now we don't really have very much concern on the depreciation itself."
Weidmann Dissents
Not all G-20 policy makers want a lower exchange rate. European Central Bank council member Jens Weidmann said in a Feb. 13 interview published today that "the exchange rate of the euro is broadly in line with fundamentals" and "you cannot really say that the euro is seriously overvalued."
ECB President Mario Draghi said although the central bank doesn't have a goal for the euro, it plays an important role in assessing the outlook for inflation and growth. "Chatter" about exchange rates is "self-defeating," he said.
An HSBC Holdings Plc study of 36 exchange rates this week found the appetite for using currencies to secure an economic advantage has increased over the last year. It ranked Japan and Switzerland the most likely to use tools to target exchange rates and Canada, Mexico and South Africa the least.
Adding pressure to governments to find ways of supporting expansion is the likelihood that the combined economies of the G-7 shrank in the last quarter for the first time since 2009. Japan's economy unexpectedly contracted an annualized 0.4 percent last quarter, extending a recession and boosting Abe's case for more stimulus.
'Overblown' Talk
The International Monetary Fund sought to ease concerns about exchange-rate volatility yesterday, calling talk of currency wars "overblown." The G-20's final communique won't include a separate statement about Japan or highlight the phrase "currency war," Russian Deputy Finance Minister Sergei Storchak told reporters in Moscow today.
One concern that will be addressed in Moscow is how foreign bond purchases can influence exchange rates, Siluanov said. Another issue, cited in the draft communique, is a discussion about the effects of monetary policy between countries.
Interest-rate cuts and asset purchases by advanced countries have drawn complaints from officials in emerging and export-driven nations such as Brazil whose officials argue the result is unwanted capital flowing into their economies, pushing up currencies.
The Feb. 11 draft says the G-20 is "mindful" there may be spillovers of monetary policy between countries and will continue to monitor their impact.
Schaeuble's Goal
With the G-20's 2010 plan to halve budget deficits by this year now in tatters, German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble told Inforadio today he wants a "concrete" follow up to the group's fiscal goals. By contrast, Russia's G-20 aide, Ksenia Yudaeva, said in an interview today that there is a need to be more flexible and less formal in making such commitments.
"Credible medium-term fiscal plans need to be put in place to provide flexibility in the near-term pace of fiscal consolidation in line with economic conditions," the draft said.
Attempting to improve the long-term potential of their economies, the G-20 members identified access to financing for investment as key for growth and hiring, the draft said. It will review steps governments and regulators can take to increase incentives to invest in areas such as infrastructure, the draft said.

Lead By Example
Written by Jennifer Denison
Simple tasks can provide the most valuable groundwork lessons for your horse. Learn how Tammy Pate makes the most of leading, grooming, saddling and bridling her horses.
If you are a longtime horse owner, you probably have a pre-ride routine. In ritualistic fashion, you walk to the pasture with halter, lead rope and grain bucket in tote. You catch your horse, lead him to the barn and tie him to the hitching post. You brush off the mud and dust, plop on a pad and saddle, and bridle him. Now you're ready to work.
Your work started the moment you walked into the pasture, when your horse formed his initial impression of you.
Last month, in the first of four articles in this series on "intuitive horsemanship," you learned that you start training your horse—and any others around him—from the moment you step into his environment. Depending on your approach, you could be teaching horses to recognize and respect you from the ground, or to disregard your presence and leave.
This is all a part of my philosophy, based on ancient yoga principles, of being aware of your inner and outer worlds, and bringing the two together in harmony. When you're in tune with yourself, your horse and nature, your intentions will be focused. In other words, you'll be mentally and physically present in the moment, and recognize that each situation is an opportunity to build on your horse's training and refine his responsiveness, which transfers to what you do in the saddle.
This sometimes means you must change your plans and spend more time working with your horse on the ground, rather than in the saddle. However, groundwork doesn't have to be thoughtless movement around a round pen. You're doing groundwork from the time you go to catch your horse.
In this article, we'll pick up where we left off in the last installment, on the ground with your horse haltered, ready to lead him back to the barn to groom and saddle. These simple tasks, if done correctly and with cognizance, are effective groundwork exercises in preparation for riding.
First, however, take a moment to relax, breathe deeply, focus on the present, and forget everything that's bothering you. Also, set an affirmation for this lesson. As I explained in the last article, an affirmation helps create positive thoughts that increase your confidence, focus your intentions, and empower you physically and emotionally to achieve your goal.
No matter what you do with a horse, you must capture his mind before you can ask for movement. If your horse is asleep, grazing or looking at something other than you, before you lead him, gain his attention by gently bumping the lead rope, bringing his head toward you, snapping your fingers or ...

The Horsemanship of Martin Black
In the setting sun, Idaho horseman Martin Black lopes circles in a Colorado arena. His horse's breathing is barely audible in the strong wind that sweeps across the front range of the Rockies. A steer enters the arena, and Martin skillfully works the animal back and forth along the fence, then in circles in both directions.
The horse, Play Lika Hickory, reserve-champion ranch horse at the 2003 World Championship Ranch Rodeo and national finals ranch-horse champion at the 2004 Western Heritage Classic, is perfectly balanced and knows his job.
Martin has built a reputation for starting and preparing horses for such diverse events as racing, cutting, reining, jumping, roping and reined cow horse. His travels have taken him all over the United States, as well as to Australia and Europe. His training methods build the horse's confidence by teaching him discipline through self-induced pressure that's easy for the horse to understand and minimizes confusion and fear.
The Black family has raised and trained horses for five generations. It runs in Martin's blood. His great-grandfather, Joe Black, was born in a wagon in 1875. One of the early settlers in Idaho's Bruneau Valley, Joe became a prominent horse breeder in the late 1800s and early 1900s, raising and training thousands of Thoroughbreds that he sold to ranches across the West, as well as to the U.S. Cavalry and European governments for military use.
Throughout his life, Joe carried on the traditions of the early California vaquero and usually roped with a rawhide reata. Martin grew up in this environment, inheriting an appreciation for the Spanish California style of horsemanship, and its emphasis on versatility.
By age 10, Martin had learned a great deal from his grandfather, Albert, and his uncle, Paul, and was 12 when he started his first colt. By 14, he'd started a number of colts and had developed an appreciation for training young horses.
Martin also learned a great deal at an early age from Melvin Jones â" a student of Martin's uncle, Paul â" who went on to become a great reined-cow-horse competitor.
"When I was about 8,"recalls Martin, "I started watching Melvin at the Elko County Fair. At that time, he pretty much dominated the entire event, and he was like an idol to me. I'd get there early in the morning to watch the first contestant, and stay late to watch the last."
Today, Martin still remains more interested in starting horses than in "finishing"them.
"After I realize...

The factory 2.1 liter supercharger weighs 50 pounds more than this upgrade. This is partially due to the solid steel drum of the clutch rotating assembly. In addition to the weight the way the supercharger is designed/placed has the intercooler in the valley of the V8 meaning it will get hot rather quickly due to heat from the engine rising out directly into it. Heat soak is a large issue with the M113K cars and there is a long history of W211 E55 owners in particular complaining about heat management. This issue will be mitigated considerably with the Weistec supercharger which has the intercooler fully floating within the lower manifold casting. Basically, airflow will cover the Weistec intercooler from all sides resolving the issues with heat soak.
This all boils down to a larger, more efficient, and lighter supercharger. More power, less weight, and the ability for repeat runs without losing that same power. Yes, exactly what M113K owners have been asking for. This same supercharger currently powers the fastest Mercedes in the world on the M156 motor platform and is a proven commodity.
The W211 E55 AMG sees a restriction at the point of the throttle body. Now remember, since this is a positive displacement design the car pulls air through the throttle body into the supercharger. The E55 was limited in this area by Mercedes likely to appease SL55, S55, and CL55 owners who had a larger throttle body. The factory 74mm can be upgraded by Weistec to 82mm with the supercharger upgrade eliminating a vital restriction point through which air passes to the compressor.
The supercharger kit retails for $8,649 and includes the following pieces:
Key Features:
- 3.0L Twin-Screw Compressor Module Why Twin-Screw?
- 1000hp Liquid to Air Intercooler Core
- High Flow, Cast Aluminum, T6 Hardened Lower Manifold
- High Flow, Cast Aluminum, T6 Hardened Intake Elbow and Throttle Body Inlet
- Maintains Factory Electronic Bypass Valve
- Hard Anodized Front Drive Bracket with Double Bearing, Belt Wrap Idler
- HD 8 Rib Belt Tensioner
- HD Supercharger Serpentine Drive Belt
- High Flow Billet Fuel Rail System
- 650cc Fuel Injectors
- Molded Silicone Air Pump and Throttle Body Coupler
- Weistec Weaved Cotton Fiber Air Filter
- New OEM Gaskets

Mucormycosis is an infection that can affect the sinuses, brain, lungs, and sometimes the skin. It is a serious infection that can be fatal.
Mucormycosis is caused by a fungus that is often found in soil, decaying plants or wood, and compost piles. The fungus enters the body through cuts or scrapes in the skin or by being inhaled into the sinuses and airways. Once in the body, the fungus can spread rapidly and quickly become fatal.
A healthy immune system can often manage the fungus and eliminate it before problems begin. However, the fungus can grow and cause severe damage if the body does not have a strong immune system.
Risk Factors
A weakened immune system increases your chance of mucormycosis. Conditions or treatments that weaken your immune system include:
- Diabetic ketoacidosis—a complication of diabetes
- HIV infection
- Leukemia or lymphoma
- Being the recipient of an organ transplant
- Long-term steroid use
- Treatment with deferoxamine—an antidote to iron poisoning
- Metabolic acidosis—too much acid in the blood
Chronic sinus infection can also increase your risk of mucormycosis.
Symptoms will depend on the location of the infection. Inhaled mucormycosis may lead to:
- Fever
- Facial pain
- Swollen or protruding eyes
- Redness of the skin over the sinuses
- Cough; occasionally coughing up blood
- Shortness of breath
- Abdominal pain
- Vomiting blood
- Pain in the side between the upper abdomen and the back
An infection in the skin may start with blisters or sores around the skin wound. The skin tissue may later be tender, red, swollen, and turn black.
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. A sample of the infected tissue will be taken and examined in a lab.
A CT scan or MRI scan may be done to look for damage to internal structures.
Mucormycosis is a serious infection and requires aggressive treatment, including surgery to remove dead tissue. Early treatment can lead to better outcomes. Antifungal medication is started as soon as possible. It may be given as a pill or by IV.
The fungus that causes this infection is found in many places. Avoiding contact with it is difficult.
The best preventative step is to control or prevent the conditions that make you vulnerable to mucormycosis.

WoD Guide in the works now!
Ability Consolidation/Trimming
- Boundless Conviction: is a new passive ability granted to all Paladins. It increases Holy Power capacity to 5 (from 3). Abilities that cost Holy Power can still only consume a maximum of 3 Holy Power. This will allow us to pool Holy Power and will alter gameplay.
- Judgments of the Bold Your Judgment hits grant one charge of Holy Power and cause the Physical Vulnerability effect.
- Physical Vulnerability Weakens the constitution of an enemy target, increasing their physical damage taken by 4% for 30 sec.
- Emancipate Unshackles your spirit, freeing you from one movement impairing effect. Instant Cast.
- Heart of the Crusader: Since Crusader Aura was removed we received a 20% passive mounted speed bonus. RIP the days of "Turn off Crusader you dumb $*#@!"
- Hammer of the Righteous: is an AoE attack that generates a charge of Holy Power.
- Sword of Light Increases the damage you deal with two-handed melee weapons by 30%. Your spell power is now equal to 50% of your attack power, and you no longer benefit from other sources of spell power. Grants 6% of your maximum mana every 2 sec. Increases the healing done by Word of Glory and Flash of Light by 100%.
- Devotion Aura: is a defensive raid cooldown. It is a combination of the old Divine Guardian (which was previously only available to Protection Paladins and has been removed from the game) and (which was previously only available to Holy Paladins and has been removed from the game) abilities. The 20% magic damage reduction will probably be its most useful feature.
- Supplication For 8 sec after you kill an enemy that yields experience or honor, your next Flash of Light will be a critical.
- Templar's Verdict Now requires 3 HP to be used, as opposed to damage modifiers at 1hp, 2hp and 3hp.
- Divine Storm Now requires 3 HP to be used, instead of granting a charge of HP if hitting 2+ targets.
- Blessing of Kings Blessing of Kings lost it's 5% stamina component and 5% resistance component
- Blessing of Might Blessing of Might no longer grants Mana Regen and 20% Melee AP and 10% Ranged AP. It instead now grants 3,000 Mastery.
- Exorcism is now instant cast, but has a 15 second cooldown.
- Hammer of Wrath Now generates Holy Power when used.
- The Art of War now grants your autoattacks a chance to reset the cooldown on your Exorcism (it used to have a chance of making it instant cast).
- Sanctity of Battle now causes haste to reduce the global cooldown and the cooldown of Judgment, Crusader Strike, Exorcism, Hammer of Wrath, and Hammer of the Righteous as well as Templar's Verdict and Divine Storm.
- Judgment and Exorcism now generate 1 charge of Holy Power when used.
- Divine Storm no longer generates Holy Power, and instead costs 3 Holy Power to use. More powerful than Templar's Verdict when used on 2 or more targets.
- Inquisition now lasts 20 seconds per charge of Holy Power consumed (up to 3), as well as increases Critical Strike by 10% per Holy Power consumed (up to 3). In addition increases damage by 30%.
- Seal of Justice is 16% weapon damage with 8 seconds of 50% a slow (magic).
- Hammer of the Righteousprocs Seal of Justice and Seal of Insight on all targets hit. Best on 3+ targets.
- GoAK now scales with stats! This means that our great friend is doing more damage! Guardian of the Ancient Kings (Retribution version) now has a reduced cooldown of 3 minutes, down from 5 minutes, and the maximum number of stacks has been reduced to 12. This is a BUFF!
With Auras done away with, you'll notice that the aura bar has been replaced with a Seal bar. At 85 you'll find on it;
- Seal of Truth- After Level 24, this will be your main DPS seal. It will produce the most damage out of any seal. Censure's damage will be extremely hard to beat!
- Seal of Righteousness- Seal of Righteousness is supposed to be our AoE seal. However, due to how good Censure's damage is you'll only want to use this in situations where there are 4+ targets.
- Seal of Justice- Our PvP seal. Helps close the gap between you and your target. If you GLYPH into Glyph of Burden of Guilt you DO NOT need this seal. You'll be able to use Seal of Truth instead.
- Seal of Insight- Caster seal of choice. Though, at times, it can help you survive in PvP if you're really grinding it. Be smart though and use your head.
Below level 24
- Seal of Command- The under 24 DPS seal of choice.
Seal of Truth will replace Seal of Command at Level 24
Unlike Cataclysm, we have much better Holy Power generation in MoP.
Our abilities which generate Holy powers are as follows.
- Crusader Strike One of our single Target DPS HP generating attacks. This is our main Melee attack.
- Judgment Another one of our single target DPS HP generating attack. While it can be used at range, it counts as a Melee attack.
- Exorcism Our single target ranged DPS HP generating attack. When glyphed however it can become a melee ranged AoE attack dealing 25% of it's damage to nearby targets.
- Hammer of Wrath Our single Target ranged execute which generates HP. Only useable below 20%, or during Avenging Wrath.
- Hammer of the Righteous Our melee range AoE DPS HP generator. This is a DPS boost over CS when hitting 3+ targets.
Now We also have a change to spells which consume Holy Power as well.
- Templar's Verdict- Our single target DPS HP finisher attack.
- Divine Storm Our AoE DPS HP finisher. This is a DPS upgrade over TV at 2+ targets.
- Word of Glory Our healing HP finisher.
- Word of Glory (Glyph of Harsh Words) When glyphed this is our ranged single target DPS TV alternative HP Finisher.
This is the basic rundown of what spells will be creating Holy Power, and which ones will be consuming.
Now that you have the idea of what spells there are, now we go onto how to use them. The Retribution Paladin rotation in quick overview will be Inq > ES > 5HP TV > HoW > CS > Judge > Exo > 3-4HP TV >SS . See below for a breakdown.
- Keep up Inquisition ideally with 3 Holy Power, keep buff rolling as close to 100% uptime as possible, as close to the buff wearing out as possible. Side note; If you refresh Inquisition below 2 seconds, it rolls. i.e.: Casting a 3HP Inquisition with 1.5 seconds left would make it last 31.5 seconds long.
- Cast Execution Sentence. This is our T6 talent of choice in most scenarios. Keep this aligned with your AW CD and Pop it after you have stacks from GoAK.
- Cast Templar's Verdict at fully charged Holy Power and while capped at 5 Holy Power. This stands while under the influence of Holy Avenger, or Divine Purpose (if NOT tracking the buff). Interchange with Divine Storm with two or more targets. You'll want to cap out your HP and not use TV with JUST 3 Holy Power when avoidable. *******
- Cast Execution Sentence on Cool down! Match with CD's and trinkets when you can!
- Cast Hammer of Wrath on cooldown (generates holy power, only available on targets below 20% health).
- Cast Crusader Strike on cooldown (generates Holy Power). Interchange with Hammer of the Righteous (generates Holy Power) for AoE situations.
- Cast Judgment (generates Holy Power).
- Cast Exorcism on cooldown (generates Holy Power).
- Templar's Verdict Fully charged, but below 5 HP, or Divine Storm fully charged but below 5 HP, this applies for Divine Purpose (if tracking the buff) *******
******* For Clarification you want to delay the use of Templar's Verdict when you have HP generators available for use AND/OR have room to accept Holy Power charges (>5HP).
What this means is that if you're below 5 Holy Power, and your HP generators are off CD, you want to use them to cap off your Holy Power. Once you have 5 Holy Power or, if you have a free GCD where all your Holy Power Generators are on cool down, you can use TV then.
IF you have T16 Your rotation will look something like this
Inq > ES > [5HP T16 Free DS] > 5HP TV > HoW > [T16 Free DS] > CS > Judge > Exo > 3-4HP TV > SS
What this does NOT mean is that you stand around waiting for your HP Generators to come off CD if you have 3/4 HP. See FAQ for why.
In multiple target situations, the chief (and possibly only) differences are
Inq > 5HP DS > LH > HoW (> T16 Free DS) > HotR > Judge > Exo > 3-4HP DS (> SS)
- replacing Crusader Strike with Hammer of the Righteous at 3+ targets;
- replacing Templar's Verdict with Divine Storm (remember that Divine Storm now costs Holy Power) at 2+ targets.
- You'll want to keep Seal of Truth until 6 targets+, where you'll use Seal of Righteousness.
You'll have to pick and choose which spells are appropriate for interchanging, however you can switch to DS at as early as 2 targets. Seal of Righteousness however will not be prioritized for AoE except in larger packs of 6+ mobs.
For PVP
Apply essentially all of the same above. However, when doing so, (as always) be sure to use discretion and make sure to do so with situational awareness.
Tier 1 talents offer a choice between 3 means of increasing your movement speed:
- Speed of Light, an activated movement speed boost that lasts for 8 seconds, 70% speed increase;
- Long Arm of the Law, a movement speed buff which is activated every time you use Judgment on your target, 45% speed increase for 3 sec.
- Pursuit of Justice, 15% passive movement speed at all times, with additional 5% movement speeds for each charge of Holy Power you have (with a max of 3), capping out at 30% movement speed.
Your choice will boil down to each encounters mechanics and requirements, and how they will fit in with your play style. Clearly each one of these has their ups and downs, however Pursuit of Justice on a Boss per Boss basis should offer the most consistent movement speed bonus.
Tier 2 talents offer a choice between 3 utility spells:
- Fist of Justice, a 6 second stun on a 30 second cooldown. This improves upon and replaces Hammer of Justice an ability granted to you by default. The new spell has a shorter cooldown and longer range at which it can be used.
- Repentance, a 1 minute duration crowd-control, that is broken by damage. Unlike the Cataclysm and WotLK version of this spell, it no longer has a 60 second CD, but a 15 second CD, but as a trade off has a 1.5 second cast time.
- Evil is a Point of View Your Turn Evil now also affects Humanoids and Beasts. This means we now, if talented, effectively have a fear that can work on players and pets! This is situation but useful! Don't quite write it off entirely! Burden of Guilt as a talent has been removed but HAS been replaced with a glyph too! Glyph of Burden of Guilt
Which of these spells you take will be largely dependent on fight mechanics, group comp/size and your point in content. While most people will probably end up with Fist of Justice, Repentancecan end up being appealing for PvE as well, while [B]Evil is a Point of View/B] is aimed at PvP, there is no reason to write it off!
Tier 3 talents offer a choice between 3 healing spells:
- Selfless Healer Each time you use Judgment you reduce the cast time and mana cost of there flash of light by 35% per stack. This stacks up to 3 times for a total effectiveness of 100%. In addition to the reducing the cast time and mana cost, when it is used to heal others it's effectiveness is increased by 35% per Judgment (stacks up to 3 times).
- Eternal Flame This spell replaces Word of Glory as a HP consuming heal but adds in a HoT mechanic. It consumes up to 3 HP healing the target directly and then for an additional amount over 30 seconds. You can manage to keep this up 100%, however maintaining this would be a DPS loss over the other two Spells.
- Sacred Shield A single target shield which absorbs a certain amount of damage every 6 seconds for 30 seconds. The absorbed amount can and will be substantial over the period of a fight, and can be used on yourself or anyone in the raid! With a 6 second CD it's easy to toss around, and has a no mana cost.
You will want to try and stay away from Eternal Flame, as it's a DPS loss compared to the other two options. Once again basing your choices off the demands and needs of the fight and it's mechanics, you're most likely to find yourself using Sacred Shield rather as your talent of choice unless you have good reason to otherwise.
Tier 4 talents offer a choice between 3 talents that grant you some utility:
- Hand of Purity is an actived ability with a 30 second cooldown that reduces the damage the target takes from DoTs by 70% for 6 seconds. This can cast on not only yourself, but any friendly target which can make it appealing to help with boss mechanics, and increase survivability.
- Unbreakable Spirit is a passive talent that reduces the remaining cooldown of Divine Shield, Divine Protection, and Lay on Hands by 1% for each charge of Holy Power you use, up to a maximum of 50% of the cooldown's duration. The ability seems most useful in reducing the cooldown of Lay on Hands, reducing the cooldown drastically allowing you to help help save lives more often.
- Clemency is a passive talent that will give your Hand of Freedom, Hand of Protection, Hand of Sacrifice and Hand of Salvation two charges before their CDs are set off. Seemingly the hand which would receive the most benefit out of this would be Hand of Sacrifice.
This tier will depend more strongly than before on the demands of your raid and the fight(s) at hand. If the fight has no DoT's than Hand of Purity is hardly useful, and if there is great need for to mitigate damage from the tank to yourself having Hand of Sacrifice useable more often can be a godsend. Let the point float and choose which you feel is best and most fitting and beneficial to your play style and to the fight mechanics.
Tier 5 talents offer a choice between 3 spells that improve your DPS:
- Holy Avenger- While under the effect of HA your HP generators now generate 3HP instead of 1 for 15 seconds. This is a two minute CD and it's similar to the old Zealotry. This will alter your rotation for the time being as seen above.
- Sanctified Wrath Increases the duration of your Avenging Wrath by 50%, and while active it reduces the cooldown of Hammer of Wrath by 50%.
- Divine Purpose Every time you use an ability that consumes Holy Power (finishers), you have a 25% chance to gain the Divine Purpose buff. The Divine Purpose buff makes your next ability which costs Holy Power to cost no Holy Power and act as if 3 were consumed.
These are all DPS increases. I won't say which one is better than the other just yet. Once you have the T16 4 Piece Bonus You'll definitely want to keep your eye towards Divine Purpose! For now, take the time to play around with them and find their sweet spots and how you feel with them, and how they fit into each boss fight.
SW and HA will be more bursty, while DP will offer more steady and sustained DPS. Keep that in mind for your choice.
Keep in mind that as you choose your talents your rotation may vary! See Post 2 for more info!
Tier 6 talents offer a choice between 3 hybrid DPS-healing spells:
- Holy Prism when cast on an ally, heals them and deals damage to all nearby enemies. When placed on an enemy, it deals damage to that enemy and heals all nearby allies. As a Retribution Paladin, you will most likely use this on yourself or another ally, so that the spell damages nearby adds.
- Light's Hammer places a hammer at a targeted ground location. The hammer deals damage to nearby enemies and heals nearby allies.
- Execution Sentence is a single target DPS spell that deals damage to the target in an escalating manner (slowly then ramping up to a burst).
Your choice of which will be based on whether you wish to damage a single target (Execution Sentence) or multiple enemies (Light's Hammer or Holy Prism), and if you're doing PvE or PvP. In the case of multiple enemies, it will also depend on how these adds are placed, your placement in comparison to the adds, how they are tanked and your movement around them as well as their time spent in the damage.
- Blessing of Kings Places a Blessing on the friendly target, increasing Strength, Agility, and Intellect by 5%.
- Blessing of Might Places a Blessing on the friendly target, increasing mastery by 3,000.
There are several Major Glyphs that can, in certain situations, be useful (Minor Glyphs are purely cosmetic):
Glyph of Inquisition
Reduces the damage bonus of Inquisition by 15%, but increases the duration by 100%. This is obviously a DPS loss, but it will make the rotation easier to maintain for those who are less experienced with the spec.
Glyph of Harsh Words
Allows your Word of Glory to be used as a damaging spell against enemies. Currently, this seems to do a decent amount of damage, making it a viable alternative to Templar's Verdict when you are out of melee range.
Glyph of Mass Exorcism
Causes your Exorcism to deal 25% of its damage to nearby enemies. As a drawback, Exorcism is reduced to melee range. This glyph could prove to be a DPS increase in very specific situations (where you are in melee range for the whole fight and there are adds next to the boss).
Glyph of Templar's Verdict
Has a small damage reduction effect. For 6 seconds after using Templar's Verdict, you take 10% reduced damage. This will probably be mandatory for raiders.
Glyph of Double Jeopardy Judging a target increases the damage of your next Judgment by 20%, but only if used on a different second target. This can potentially be a good glyph on fights where you'll have a second mob(s) present at all times to hit.
So, what does it look like we'll end up running with?
But we have only three slots! Well, yeah, but we'll want to switch out Glyph of Mass Exorcism on fights where we can't AoE all over the place, and Harsh words in when the added ranged ability will help!

Confusion with recycling plastic containers:
A triangle with a number (1 to 7) inside stamped on a plastic container or bottle is part of the Plastic Identification Code.
This code identifies the type of plastic the product is - not if it can be recycled.
People often confuse the 'plastic identification code' for the general recycling symbol (mobius loop), which involves three chasing arrows.
About Plastic Lids
Most councils will ask you to remove the lids from your plastic bottles before you place them in your recycling container, for the following reasons:
- Plastic bottles must have lids off and be empty because the weight of a half full bottle makes it more difficult for the recyclers automated systems to recognise it as a particular recyclable item.
- Plastic bottles must have lids off and be empty to prevent the liquid spilling and ruining other recyclable products or damaging the equipment at the recycling centre
- The plastic lid is a different type of plastic from the bottle
- Plastic lids are too small for recyclers to recover with current technology
