what do you think which aprox. price will be for sky when mount will be available ???
(ask like someone who wanna sell not buy)
I can see them going up for a decent amount in the first weeks, probably around the 300-500k gold mark, people like to try
I think one has been seen on an AH though, there was a thread on it, no clue how they got it so fast though.
Average price of materials on Kazzak-EU was 16K last week (didn't check this week). Guessing it won't be far off on other realms, so a reasonable price would be 30-40K.
50 to 100K is way too much.
Easy 100k... the first week on my low pop realm.. I imagine after the initial rush they will go for 50-60k.
"You take 4,994,468 boredom damage from daily quests.... You have died."
I'd say about 50-100k or so on high population servers. I'm making one for myself atm and trying to get the recipe on my alt so I can make a second one to sell.
The other people I've talked to said they don't mind waiting ~6 months for the mount to go down to about 15-20k (so pretty much mats price).
My advice is settle for 50k and sell quickly before the market gets flooded with others trying to make a quick buck not realizing that most buyers planned ahead too.
Then you deserve a prize for finding one of the rare WoW players that owns tons of gold yet has no idea how professions work.

Not sure if this has been hotfixed after the first week though.
Completed legendaries: Twilight, Sunrise, (Eternity), Incinerator, Bolt, Quip, Frostfang, The Dreamer, The Moot, The Juggernaut, Howler.
Current projects: Frenzy, mini Llama.
I don't think it will be as high as people are expecting. The market is going to be flooded with them on October 10th (US realms). I'm sure the first people to AH will list them for exorbitant prices. Then people will start to undercut...and before you know it there's a dozen of them up there.
You obviously do not have an engineer. Here are some things you should know:
1) It is one of the hardest (if not the hardest) profession to level.
2) There are not very many money making items for engineers. (mounts do not sell all that great due to the high cost to make them)
3) It will take 30 days to make, using a daily CD.
So either level engineering - or pay what we (as engineers who took the time to level it and learn the necessary recipes) want to sell it for - an no less.
If you dont want to pay our price, then level it yourself, or gtfo cause you are dead wrong if you think anyone will sell it for the 16k you think it should go for.

Living steel is around 600 on my server - so those 30 alone are already 18k. What the BoP material is worth is anyone's guess, but a minimum of 18K like the living steel maybe? My estimate is that they will show up at 100k initially, going down to 50k over the months.
There is literally 1000 of players on all the realms that planned out and have more then 2+ engi hoping to cash in on this mount .....I read one player has like 6 engi.....so there will be tons of mounts on the AH in two weeks or so and will driver the price to the ground.

I am planning to come back to wow around thanksgiving/Christmas. My budget for this mount is around 10k, max 15k. Yeah i know i am a cheapo.

"Jerusalem" is a Christian rock band, based in Sweden that was founded around 1975 by Ulf Christiansson. They are widely viewed as the first Christian band with a hard rock sound.
When the band first toured in the mid-1970's in Sweden, their combination of Christian lyrics with a hard rock sound was very controversial. Hard rock was connected to drugs, aggression and the Devil, and the band was only permitted to perform at a few churches.
Jerusalem's message was primarily aimed at youth, with their lyrics describing the band's relationship to God in an ordinary, but radical way. The concerts have been described as a series of revival meetings.
Over time, Jerusalem gained broader acceptance, and after three years of touring record companies began making offers to record the band. The Christian record company Prim signed Jersualem, without much expectation of success. However, the band's self-titled first album "Jerusalem" became an instant hit among Christian listeners, and within the first six months the record sold 20 000 copies, unheard of within the genre of Christian rock in Europe.
Buoyed by the response, Jerusalem toured both in Sweden and the rest o...

Hello everyone I have a checkbox I want to check if its checked or no on client side, before postback happens.
Here is the checkbox:
<asp:CheckBox runat="server" CssClass="checkbox" Checked="true" ID="checkboxRules" />
var ishown = false;
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#BUTTON').click(function (e) {
Since it is a server-side Checkbox, it will send something like
<input type="checkbox" class="checkbox" /> as HTML to the client after ASP.NET processes the control.
The id of the checkbox isn't going to be checkboxRules as you have it in the source code. ASP.NET will make a concatenation of the server-side form id + master page id (if using a master page) + checkboxRules so in this case I won't use a selector that depends on element id.
We can make a jQuery selector as narrow as possible to only select inputs with a type of "checkbox" and with a CSS class of "checkbox".
$('input[type=checkbox] .checkbox').attr('checked')
will return the boolean value of the check status of the input. This will find any input on the page that is a checkbox with that CSS class.

The 50 Best Teams of 2012
A year that brought us Gangnam Style, Round 2 of Titanic and Honey Boo Boo is nearing an end. According to ancient Mayan script, it may be our last.
With that said, let's check out the best teams of 2012, a year dominated by handful of talented squads that truly inspired and escaped on top.
Presenting the 50 best teams of 2012.
50. Cincinnati Reds, MLB
2012 Record: 97-65
2012 Result: Loss in NLDS
Joey Votto and Jay Bruce are powerfully turning this team into the Big Red Machine of old. But not yet.
49. Indiana Pacers, NBA
2011-2012 Record: 42-24
2012 Result: Loss in Eastern Conference semifinals
Danny Granger and Paul George infused their Pacers with a remarkable grit that hasn't been seen around Indiana since the Reggie Miller days.
48. Chicago Bears, NFL
2011-2012 Record: 8-8
2012 Result: 8-4 start to the current season
The Bears became the first team in NFL history to return seven interceptions for touchdowns in the first eight contests in a season, proving to be more lethal on defense than many NFL offenses.
Cutler-to-Marshall is the new fad.
47. Ohio State Buckeyes Basketball, NCAA
2011-2012 Record: 31-8
2012 Result: Final Four loss
Crafty 260-pound forward Jared Sullinger paved the way for Buckeye success with 17.5 points and 9.2 rebounds per game. And then came Kansas.
46. Chicago Bulls, NBA
2011-2012 Record: 50-16
2012 Result: Loss in first round of Eastern Conference playoffs
Derrick Rose's ACL tear sparked a lengthy depression. Chicago awaits its heart and soul.

2011-2012 Record: 8-8, loss in AFC Divisional Round
2012 Result: 9-3 start to season, clinched playoff berth
Forget Tebowmania, the Broncos are sitting at 9-3 after winning their seventh straight. Peyton Manning has the chance to win both the Comeback Player of the Year and MVP awards—in the same season.
44. Texas Rangers, MLB
2012 Record: 93-69
2012 Result: Loss in Wild Card Game
After back-to-back World Series losses, the Rangers completely crumbled this past October. But they remain elite.
43. Florida Gators Football, NCAA
2012 Record: 11-1
2012 Result: Sugar Bowl berth
Quarterback Jeff Driskel may not be Tim Tebow, but with 11 touchdowns and a 64.8 completion percentage, he's certainly not a surcharge-free ATM. Awaiting a trip to the Sugar Bowl.
42. Kansas Jayhawks Basketball, NCAA
2011-2012 Record: 32-7
2012 Result: Loss in National Championship
Led by ESPN.com National Player of the Year Thomas Robinson, Kansas nearly matched Kentucky in terms of perfection, but the Jayhawks couldn't quite match the Wildcats' youthful exuberance.

2012 Record: 95-67
2012 Result: Loss in ALCS
Another flashy year, another postseason debacle for Alex Rodriguez.

2012 Result: Seventh FA Cup and first UEFA Champions League title

Andrew Luck gone? No problem for David Shaw's focused unit.

36. Kansas State Wildcats Football, NCAA
2012 Record: 11-1
2012 Result: Fiesta Bowl berth
Before being upset by the Baylor Bears, 52-24, Kansas State was soaring up the charts. Now the Wildcats will face the high-flying Ducks in their third Fiesta Bowl ever.
35. Baltimore Orioles, MLB
2012 Record: 93-69
2012 Result: Loss in ALDS
Unlikely contributions and the emergence of Taiwanese starter Wei-Yin Chen paved the way for a franchise-changing year.
34. Los Angeles Lakers, NBA
2011-2012 Record: 41-25
2012 Result: Loss in Western Conference semifinals
And then came the offseason revamp. We're waiting on the progress.

Defeated Bayern Munich for the league championship, proving to be far from an afterthought.
32. Houston Texans, NFL
2011-2012 Record: 10-6, loss in AFC Divisional Round
2012 Result: 11-1 thus far, clinched playoff berth
Following their first playoff appearance, the high-flying Texans, without an injured Matt Schaub, beat the Bengals in the Wild Card Round before bowing down to the physical Ravens. This year, it's all about J.J. Watt and that roaring Houston defense.
31. Oregon Ducks Football, NCAA
2012 Record: 11-1
2012 Result: Fiesta Bowl berth
Marcus Mariota with 30 passing touchdowns, Kenjon Barner with 1,624 yards and 21 rushing touchdowns, Oregon fans with smiles.
30. FC Barcelona, Soccer
2011-2012 Finish: 28-7-3 (91 points)
2012 Result: Copa del Rey, UEFA Super Cup, FIFA Club World Cup, Supercopa de Espana
Perhaps on the decline, but still among the elite.
29. Ohio State Buckeyes Football, NCAA
2012 Record: 12-0
2012 Result: N/A
Postseason ineligibility didn't prevent the Braxton Miller-led Buckeyes from running the table.

Jarvis Landry's one-handed catches have set the tone for another promising season under Les Miles.
24. Texas A&M Aggies Football, NCAA
2012 Record: 10-2
2012 Results: Cotton Bowl Classic berth
In the tone of a Stephen A. Smith, freshman Heisman Trophy candidate Johnny Manziel is a "baaad" man.
23. Juventus FC, Soccer
2011-2012 Record: 23-15-0 (84 points)
2012 Result: Serie A championship
The third undefeated campaign in Serie A history was simply breathtaking.
22. Baylor Lady Bears Basketball, NCAA

Brittney Griner, a 6'8" Sequoia of a center, ran the show.
21. New York Rangers, NHL
2011-2012 Record: 51-24-7 (109 points)
2012 Result: Loss in Eastern Conference Finals
After Marian Gaborik scored near the end of the third overtime of Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals to beat the Capitals, fans knew this year would be special. This optimism was further cemented when Brad Richards tied Game 5 with 6.6 seconds to go.
Unfortunately, the gritty Rangers couldn't fend off the Devils in the conference finals.
20. Alabama Crimson Tide Football, NCAA
2012 Record: 12-1
2012 Result: BCS National Championship berth

This time, against Manti Te'o and his golden Notre Dame unit.
19. Boston Celtics, NBA
2011-2012 Record: 39-27
2012 Result: Loss in Eastern Conference Finals
Led by Paul Pierce's 19.4 points, Rajon Rondo's 11.7 assists and Kevin Garnett's intensity, the aging Celtics continued to find success. They took the Heat to seven games before crumbling to a younger and more talented unit.
18. St. Louis Cardinals, MLB
2012 Record: 88–74
2012 Result: Loss in NLCS
Losing all-world slugger Albert Pujols didn't keep the Cardinals from tempting the unlikely. Still running off the rally squirrel's energy, the Cards watched five players hit 20-plus home runs, Yadier Molina enjoy a MVP-type year and starters combine for a 3.62 ERA.
17. Phoenix Coyotes, NHL
2011-2012 Record: 47-27-13 (97 points)
2012 Result: Loss in the Western Conference Finals
Led by veteran winger Radim Vrbata's team-high 35 goals and Ray Whitney's 53 assists, this Coyotes squad shocked the hockey world and quietly progressed deep into the playoffs.
And how could we forget the Phoenix wallpaper, goalie Mike Smith, who owned a 2.21 GAA, 38 wins and eight shutouts?
16. Green Bay Packers, NFL
2011-2012 Record: 15-1, loss in NFC Divisional Round
2012 Result: Currently 8-4 entering Week 14
After achieving the best record in Green Bay history, the Packers seemed nearly immortal. Aaron Rodgers, while breaking every quarterback record known to man, has climbed the ladder of greatness while tossing score after score.
15. Real Madrid C.F., Soccer
2011-2012 Finish: 100 points
2012 Result: 32nd La Liga title
Scored a record 121 goals last season—the year of the torn history books.
14. Washington Nationals, MLB
2012 Record: 98-64
2012 Result: Loss in NLDS
Never dropping below the .500 mark, the blossoming Nationals honorably plowed through the competition with prolific pitching and timely hitting. A brash 19-year-old infusion named Bryce Harper fueled the machine.
13. New Jersey Devils, NHL
2011-2012 Record: 48-28-6 (102 points)
2012 Result: Loss in the Stanley Cup Final
Ilya Kovalchuk, Zach Parise and David Clarkson combined for 98 goals, and goaltending legend Martin Brodeur did what Martin Brodeur does.
Though, did anyone really predict a championship-round appearance?
12. New England Patriots, NFL
2011-2012 Record: 13-3, lost in Super Bowl
2012 Result: 9-3 thus far, clinched playoff berth
Thanks to Tom Brady's 5,235 yards and 39 touchdowns, Rob Gronkowski's bruising emergence and a missed kick by Baltimore kicker Billy Cundiff in the AFC Championship Game, the Pats achieved another Super Bowl berth. And then became the fourth team to lose four Super Bowls.
11. Detroit Tigers, MLB
2012 Record: 88-74
2012 Result: Loss to Giants in World Series
While baby-faced slugger Miguel Cabrera hauled in the Triple Crown hardware, his Tigers couldn't complete their journey toward the promised land as they were swept by the Giants.
10. Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football, NCAA
2012 Record: 12-0
2012 Result: BCS National Championship berth
With 103 tackles, seven interceptions, 11 pass deflections and a fierce nature, Samoan linebacker Manti Te'o has led a rejuvenated unit back to golden-helmeted prosperity. The Fighting Irish continue to close in on perfection.
9. Kentucky Wildcats Basketball, NCAA
2011-2012 Record: 38-2
2012 Result: NCAA Championship
With a young crop of mostly one-and-dones, led by unibrowed phenom Anthony Davis, the Wildcats shattered all expectations and utterly dominated the collegiate hardwood.
There was never really a doubt.
8. San Antonio Spurs, NBA
2011-2012 Record: 50-16
2012 Result: Loss to Oklahoma City in the Western Conference Finals
After sweeping the Jazz and Clippers in the first two rounds, the Spurs appeared unbeatable. That was until they met the high-flying Thunder, who dropped San Antonio in six games. Still a marvelous season for Pop's seasoned squad.
7. FC Bayern Munich, Soccer
2011-2012 Final Table: 73 points
2012 Result: Loss in UEFA Champions League final
A Champions League final only one week after the German Cup final between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund proved Bayern to be among the best, most active teams in the world. Franck Ribery was at the heart of it all.
6. San Francisco 49ers, NFL
2011-2012 Record: 13-3, loss in NFC Championship Game
2012 Result: 8-3-1 entering Week 14
With fiery Jim Harbaugh at the helm, a potent defense shattering offenses and quarterback Alex Smith finally discovering a productive groove, the Niners made a serious statement in the 2012 postseason.
Colin Kaepernick is making the rich even richer.
5. Oklahoma City Thunder, NBA
2011-2012 Record: 47-19
2012 Result: Loss in the NBA Finals
After defeating the steaming Spurs in the Western Conference Finals, the Thunder seemed destined for a first title in Oklahoma City. Kevin Durant's league-high 28.0 points per game and Serge Ibaka's league-leading 3.6 blocks paved the way. As did Russell Westbrook's swagger.
4. Los Angeles Kings, NHL
2011-2012 Record: 40-27-15 (95 points)
2012 Result: Stanley Cup victory
Finishing eighth in the Western Conference didn't stop the underdog Kings from gliding across opponents with ease. Behind Jonathan Quick's 1.41 goals allowed average in the playoffs and Dustin Penner's postseason beard, the Kings captured their first cup.
3. New York Giants, NFL
2011-2012 Record: 9-7, Super Bowl victory
2012 Result: 7-5 entering Week 14
Eli Manning won his second Super Bowl MVP as his Giants ran the table on a handful of potent powerhouses in the 2012 playoffs, ending with the Patriots.
The Giants are off to a 7-5 start this season, as they keep the NFC East in their back pocket.
2. San Francisco Giants, MLB
2012 Record: 94-68
2012 Result: World Series title
After becoming the first National League team in history to come back from a 2-0 deficit in a best-of-five series by sweeping the Reds in Cincinnati, the Giants rolled to a dominant championship victory, sweeping the powerful Tigers.
Comeback-kid Giants win their second World Series title in three years.
1. Miami Heat, NBA
2011-2012 Record: 46-20
2012 Result: NBA Championship
LeBron James gets his coveted ring; Dwyane Wade paves the way for his buddy to lead the team; Chris Bosh plays third wheel, willfully. A melting pot of dominance.

(8/28/2010) The national news agency Antara says that three Indonesian domestic air carriers are eyeing flight operations between Denpasar (Bali) and Baubau (Southeast Sulawesi).
Mz Amirul Tamin, the Mayor or Baubau, says that his office has already established agreements with three airlines: Lion, Wings and Express Air. According to Amirul: "I have already consulted with several air companies who are eager to fly the route such as Lion, Wings and Express Air. Of course thier goal is to ease the journeys of foreign tourists wishing to come to Baubau."
The establishment of a direct air link between Bali and Baubau would reduce travel time, eliminating the need for the current intermediate stop in the Southeast Sulawesi provincial capital of Kendari.
Amirul also told the press that the realization of the new air service to Bali will occur at the latest before the end of the current year.
Seeking to increase tourism to Baubau, Amirul is aggressively seeking additional air connections to Makassar and Mamuju in addition to current air connections to Surabaya and Ambon.

Winter was the time
Chapter 1
Claudine sunshine
I got off the plane to the rush of winter air hitting me on the face. Mum and dad walked past me. Dad whispered in my ear, "Claudine honey, keep moving- you are holding up the people behind us." I slowly turned around to see everyone yawning, stretching and giving me dirty looks, so I started my pace up the little platform out of the plane and into London airport.
Yep, I was in London while all my friends were back in Sydney, enjoying the summer air. What luck, right? I hate winter and all my friends know that, but my parents, apparently, don't. Dad walked over and picked up our luggage and he gave me my trolley bag. I looked around for Jamie but I couldn't see him anywhere so I turned to mum and he was standing next to her, helping with the luggage. He looked up at me, smiled and walked over to me, putting his arm around my shoulder and said, "Sup sis-long flight, eh?" I ducked out from under his arms and gave him a dirty look. He laughed and walked back over to dad and mum.
We walked out of the terminal and Jamie snatched my trolley bag from me. "You okay?"
"Don't worry about me-I'm fine, Jamie. And give me back my bag! I am strong enough to roll it behind me, okay?"
"Sis I am only tryna help."
" Uh, I hate when you treat me like I am smaller than you!" He was 3 years younger, but acted like he was my older brother. Correctly he was only 14 yrs old, and just because he was taller and, believe it or not, he was still growing. He towered over me and teased my height.
We were out of the terminal and went outside to wait for dad's friend, whom he knew from college. As soon as I stepped out of the airport, a gush of wind whipped across my face, blowing my hair around me. I was freezing and had established that black skinny jeans, a sleeve less dress with a thin black cardigan on top was not something that would keep you warm. I turned to look at my parents and Jamie as they pulled out their coats and gave me mine. Thank God I had brought a thick woollen jacket.
We stood there for about 5 minutes when two cars pulled up by the curb. One was a large SUV and the other a small sedan. I was hopeless at car names and that sucked like hell. A man and a lady got out of the cars, and as they walked over to us the man screamed out to dad-mind you it was 12:30AM in London and everyone was staring at us. One man even told the guy to shut up!
"Thomason Sunshine, my man! How are you?"
His accent was thickly pommy. He spread his arms out wide and walked over to dad. He hugged him and then slowly pulled away and punched dad in the shoulder.
"Jace Crawford! Best man at my wedding-now that is saying something, eh?" They both laughed and mum started talking to the lady, completely forgetting me and Jamie.
We turned to each other and gave each other the 'scared' look. We used to give each other that look when we were younger. We both cracked up laughing, and that's when everybody looked at us. Dad smiled at me and motioned for us to walk over. When we got there, I stood next to him. Jamie was taller than dad, which made me laugh but, I tried to cover it up-pretending to cough. They looked at me and smiled. I gave my adoring and charming smile that all adults loved.
"Jace these are my kids: Claudine and Jamie" Jace looked at us and smiled.
"Well well, aren't you two just adorable? And Jamie, well you're a replica of your father!" Dad laughed his belly laugh and I tried not to roll my eyes. Jace stuck out his hands to shake Jamie's with such force I thought his arm might snap off, and I thought 'What in hell? He's not trying to wrestle you mate!' I know I was being stuck up and kind of bitchy towards someone I haven't met before, but hey, you can't blame a girl who is in skimpy clothes and freezing her butt off like there never was summer.
After all the greetings were done, and the luggage was loaded-which took a good half hour- we were off to Uncle Jace's place where we were staying for two weeks. From there, dad was planning to rent a house just across the street. He had it all planned out a month before coming here.
We reached Uncle Jace's and Aunt Maria's place in no time at all. The parents decided to send us to bed before we did anything else, so Aunt Marya took us upstairs and said, "Choose whichever bedrooms you want, and when you're done, just go inside and look under the bed-it will have a mattress under it. In the closet there will be two bedspreads. If you want anything else, darling" Turning to me and pointing at a cupboard "Just look in there. There are heaps of things in there, okay?" Jamie and I both nodded in unison. Aunt Marya turned around and went downstairs to get our luggage. The bedrooms we chose were the ones that we first saw.
We split up and went inside our rooms-which were facing each other and were across the stairs. In the far corner was Jamie's, and I took the room in the other corner, facing Jamie's' room. We said goodnight and went in.
I walked into the room and saw that aunt Marya didn't do anything, so I opened up the closet, pulled out the bedspread, and bent down and pulled out the mattress. I spread it across the floor and just fell on top of the mattress, instantly asleep.

What are the benefits of blending and enjoying a green fruit-and-veggie smoothie? First, you'll get yourself a tasty breakfast or afternoon treat. Second, look at that great color! The benefits don't stop there. Not only is this smoothie easy to make (I used canned pineapple, but you could use fresh or frozen), but it is delicious too. Don't fear the kale. This smoothie doesn't taste "grassy" or have a heavy veggie flavor.
The fiber that's loaded in a smoothie like this will help keep you full longer. That means less snacking or even overeating. I don't know about you, but with the summer season approaching, that's just the kind of benefit I need in my life.
Resource: U.S. Department of Agriculture
These smoothies taste great and are so good for you. Aside from the vibrant green color, you'd never even know there was a pile of kale included in this delicious, filling smoothie.

Dundee began their Scottish Premiership campaign with a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Kilmarnock in an entertaining fixture at Dens Park.
Paul Hartley's newly promoted side went ahead thanks to midfielder Gary Harkins' 16th-minute penalty, but their lead was short-lived as Craig Slater equalised with a textbook free-kick after 24 minutes for Allan Johnston's visitors.
The Taysiders were the stronger side in the second half when Killie had their goalkeeper, Craig Samson, to thank for keeping the hosts at bay as a winner looked on the cards.
Dundee had nine new faces in their line-up after a summer of change within their ranks, while Kilmarnock fielded Chris Chantler, who had joined from Carlisle 24 hours earlier.
There was a sizable crowd inside Dens Park for this eagerly awaited fixture as the home team began brightly. They created their first chance after four minutes when a Harkins corner was met by Paul McGowan, who shot narrowly over the crossbar.
Shortly after Dundee striker Greg Stewart saw his header go just past the post from McGowan's cross.
Kilmarnock were not sitting back either and on eight minutes Josh Magennis's header from Rory McKenzie's cross ball forced Kyle Letheren to pull off a brilliant diving save at the expense of a corner.
With 13 minutes played, Dundee's Simon Ferry went on a foraging run and his left-foot pass looked inch-perfect, but the on-rushing McGowan just failed to make contact.
However, a minute later the home team took the lead from the penalty spot.
A one-two involving McGowan and Luka Tankulic almost set Harkins free inside the box until he was impeded by Mark Connolly.
The referee, Steven McLean, had no hesitation in pointing to the spot and Harkins stepped up to make it 1-0 by sending Samson the wrong way.
Kilmarnock did not let their heads drop and after 20 minutes Chris Johnston fed Magennis who then played in McKenzie, whose powerful 20-yard shot went just past the target.
The visitors threatened again after 22 minutes when Ross Barbour's defence-splitting pass put Tope Obadeyi clean through on goal, but he blasted his shot off the bar from 12 yards.
However, they were not to be denied as the equaliser arrived on 24 minutes when, after James McPake's foul on Obadeyi, Slater struck an unstoppable free-kick into the far top corner to make it 1-1, with Letheren rooted to the spot.
Dundee almost regained the advantage within seconds of the restart.
Harkins' solo run left several Killie defenders trailing and he was unfortunate to see his left-foot shot turned wide by Samson.
The hosts were on top by this point and next McGowan's low drive was turned wide by the diving Samson.
With just minutes remaining, the Dundee substitute Jim McAlister had a golden opportunity to seal the points, only to see his 12-yard effort saved by Samson.
Then his fellow sub Peter MacDonald hit Samson's bar with an injury-time free-kick which would have brought the house down.

An "al-Qaida sympathizer" accused of plotting to bomb police and post offices in New York City as well as U.S. troops returning home remained in police custody after an arraignment on numerous terrorism-related charges.
Jose Pimentel of Manhattan was described by Mayor Michael Bloomberg at a Sunday news conference announcing Pimentel's arrest as "a 27-year-old al-Qaida sympathizer" who was motivated by terrorist propaganda and resentment of U.S. troops in Afghanistan and Iraq. Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said police had to move quickly to arrest Pimentel on Saturday because he was ready to carry out his plan.
"He was in fact putting this bomb together," Kelly said. "He was drilling holes and it would have been not appropriate for us to let him walk out the door with that bomb."
Ten years after 9/11, New York remains a prime terrorism target. Bloomberg said at least 14 terrorist plots, including the latest alleged scheme, have targeted the city since the Sept. 11 attacks. No attack has been successful, however. Pakistani immigrant Faisal Shahzad is serving a life sentence for trying to detonate a car bomb in Times Square in May 2010.
Kelly said Sunday that Pimentel was energized and motivated to carry out his plan by the Sept. 30 killing of al-Qaida's U.S.-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki.
"He decided to build the bomb August of this year, but clearly he jacked up his speed after the elimination of al-Awlaki," Kelly said.
An unemployed U.S. citizen originally from the Dominican Republic, Pimentel was "plotting to bomb police patrol cars and also postal facilities as well as targeted members of our armed services returning from abroad," Bloomberg said.
New York police had him under surveillance for at least a year and were working with a confidential informant; no injury to anyone or damage to property is alleged, Kelly said. In addition, authorities have no evidence that Pimentel was working with anyone else, the mayor said.
"He appears to be a total lone wolf," the mayor said. "He was not part of a larger conspiracy emanating from abroad."
At Pimentel's arraignment, his lawyer Joseph Zablocki said his client's behavior leading up to the arrest was not that of a conspirator trying to conceal some violent scheme. Zablocki said Pimentel was public about his activities and was not trying to hide anything.
"I don't believe that this case is nearly as strong as the people believe," Zablocki said. "He (Pimentel) has this very public online profile. … This is not the way you go about committing a terrorist attack."
Pimentel, also known as Muhammad Yusuf, was denied bail and remained in custody. The bearded, bespectacled man wore a black T-shirt and black drawstring pants and smiled at times during the proceeding. His mother and brother attended the arraignment, Zablocki said.
Pimentel is accused of having an explosive device Saturday when he was arrested, one he planned to use against others and property to terrorize the public. The charges accuse him of conspiracy going back at least to October 2010, and include first-degree criminal possession of a weapon as a crime of terrorism, and soliciting support for a terrorist act.
Bloomberg said at the news conference that Pimentel represents the type of threat FBI Director Robert Mueller has warned about as U.S. forces erode the ability of terrorists to carry out large scale attacks.
"This is just another example of New York City because we are an iconic city … this is a city that people would want to take away our freedoms gravitate to and focus on," Bloomberg said.
Kelly said a confidential informant had numerous conversations with Pimentel on Sept. 7 in which he expressed interest in building small bombs and targeting banks, government and police buildings.

When I first start my car in the morning, I have a rough idle and a rough ride for a while and then the car lugs for a minute and then drives normal. There seems to be a rattling sound coming from near the Catalytic Converter or the exhaust tip. There is no funky sounds coming from the engine. I know that cleaning the Mass Airflow Sensor, replacing the air filter, checking the fuel pump and checking the catalytic converter are some options but doing all of them takes some time. Is there an easy diagnosis for this problem?

Dodgers name their minor league player, pitcher of the year; they don't figure to be playing at Dodger Stadium soon
The Dodgers' farm system.
Not the cavalry to the coming 2011 Dodgers. Next season the Dodgers will need plenty of improvement to return to championship caliber, but it doesn't figure to come from the kids.
The lower levels have their share of intriguing prospects, but there is no one at triple-A Albuquerque whose talent is pounding at the Dodgers' door and demanding entrance.
It's conceivable there won't be a single player who spent the bulk of last season at Albuquerque who makes the Dodgers next year.
As if to confirm the situation, the Dodgers announced their minor league pitcher and player of the year Thursday, and neither has had a sniff of triple A.
Outfielder Jerry Sands was named their minor league player of the year. He split his 2010 between the Class-A Great Lakes Loons and the double-A Chattanooga Lookouts.
Right-hander Rubby De La Rosa, their minor league pitcher of the year, did the same.
Sands, 22, took a giant leap this year. In his combined season he hit 35 home runs (tied for third in all of the minors), with 93 runs batted in and a .301 batting average.
He's headed to the Arizona Fall League to learn to play third base.
De La Rosa, 21, went a combined 7-2 with six saves and a 2.73 earned-run average. He spent the first half as a reliever and was switched to starter at the break.
In the past 11 years, the only winner of their minor league pitcher of the year who stuck with the Dodgers was Chad Billingsley (a two-time winner). The only player of the year in the past 13 years who became a Dodgers regular was James Loney.
-- Steve Dilbeck

Almost lost in all the hype surround the fourth season premiere of Game of Thrones and the series premiere of Silicon Valley, the third season premiere of Veep, one of the best comedies in all of television, also arrived last night. It was a good one. As is often the case with season premieres, "Some New Beginnings" was heavy on the table setting. Vice President Meyers was in in a book tour on Iowa prepping her bid for the presidency, while the rest of the team was attending the wedding of Mike McClintock.
Naturally, the biggest news in months broke during Mike's wedding — that Defense Secretary Maddox was resigning to seek the presidency — leading the team to scramble to process the news. In the midst of the chaos, Jonah leaked a photograph on his unauthorized blog, leading POTUS to push up the announcement that he's not seeking reelection. The leak also cost Jonah his job (although, I would expect that they'll find plenty of ways to keep him involved in the series). Meanwhile, Vice President Selina Meyer delivered a eulogy at a Senator's funeral she was attending in an effort to find an experienced campaign manager to run her election campaign, meaning she's overlooking both Dan and Amy, who were seeking the position.
As usual, however, the comedy in Veep is not in the situation, so much as it is in the writing. Here are the 12 best lines from the season premiere, and they are heavy on the Jonah.

Leadership: A student view
Congressman Aaron Schock '02 applauds at the dedication of the Bob Michel VA Outpatient Clinic in Peoria in April. Visit bradley.edu/hilltopics/go/michel to view a tribute video about Michel.
History major KATIE CHILDS '12 recently sat down with three of Bradley's most well-known leaders in Washington, D.C.
Former Minority Leader Bob Michel '48 HON '81
Former minority leader BOB MICHEL '48 HON '81 was an influential figure in the U.S. House of Representatives for more than four decades, and he had a direct impact on the success of the Reagan administration.
As a student, Michel was not even thinking about politics as a career path until Bradley president DAVID OWEN '29 suggested that Michel get involved in politics.
Michel has the distinction of being the longest-serving minority leader in the House. He became minority leader in 1980, and served in that position until he retired from public service in 1994. Michel credits his successes in Congress to his outlook on bipartisanship. "You have to have a desire to get to know people, even with their opposing views, at least to talk to them, and to get to be friends with them. Having a good relationship with the other side of the aisle was my strength."
Those friendships and relationships became even more important during the Reagan administration, when Democrats had a strong majority in the House of Representatives. On bills such as the Reagan tax cuts and the Reagan economic policy, which continue to be significant to the Reagan administration's legacy, the president relied on Michel's help to ensure these bills passed in the House. "I was Reagan's point man in the House. [We] only had 192 Republican representatives and needed 218 for the bill to pass," said Michel.
He recalls writing the names of those poised to be swing votes in the House on a 3-by-5 index card and reporting his findings to the president. Then, in groups of 10, those members would be invited to meet with President Reagan in the White House. And the rest is history.
Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood '71 HON '11
Secretary of Transportation RAY LaHOOD '71 HON '11 exhibited his consensus-building leadership style during his 14 years representing Illinois' 18th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. In 2009, LaHood became Secretary of Transportation, where he uses this same leadership style to advance the Obama administration's goals in the realm of transportation.
His style is based on attempting to understand different aspects and viewpoints of issues that may divide people. The Republican transportation secretary explains, "I try to get everyone around the table and figure out the problem and the solutions to the problem. I believe problems get solved when everyone has their say about the problem and the solution, and then we are able to move forward." He credits this style for his successful career in Congress.
In 2004, this leadership approach, along with his problem-solving attitude, is what attracted a freshman senator from Illinois into a friendship with LaHood. Now, that senator has the top job in the United States, and LaHood believes his leadership traits attracted President Barack Obama to appoint him to his Cabinet.
After Obama's election to the U.S. Senate in 2004, he met with LaHood in his Peoria office. "We talked about how we were going to work together as a Democratic senator and a Republican representative in the House, for Illinois." That friendship, along with LaHood's leadership style, impacted Obama's decision to appoint him. "He saw me as someone who is bipartisan, someone who could work with both parties and get things done for both parties," LaHood said.
LaHood's ability to be a consensus builder has aided him in becoming the first Cabinet member to hail from downstate Illinois since John Block, secretary of agriculture under Ronald Reagan from 1981 to 1986.
Congressman Aaron Schock '02
By the time Congressman AARON SCHOCK '02 turned 30 in May, he had already been president of the Peoria District 150 School Board and served two terms in the Illinois House of Representatives. Currently, he is serving his second term representing Illinois' 18th District in the U.S. House of Representatives. He is part of a Bradley University tradition in Congress that started in 1957, 24 years before he was born.
Schock's time at Bradley foreshadowed his approach to politics. He was a student senator and also president of the Financial Management Association. "The environment at Bradley was supportive of my ambitious nature and gave me a lot of opportunities to get involved, which has been the way I have operated in the state assembly and now in Congress." Schock noted, "Leadership is more than just having a great idea; it is about getting people behind that idea. Bradley is a great platform to learn that concept and then practice it as a student."
These lessons helped Schock with a successful transition to life on Capitol Hill. In December 2010, Speaker of the House John Boehner appointed Schock to the House Committee on Ways and Means for the 112th Congress, making him the youngest member of the prestigious committee in 33 years. Schock also serves on the House Administration Committee. On February 14, Schock had the opportunity to occupy the Speaker's seat and preside over the House of Representatives.
Continuing to create his legacy of public service, the congressman conducted his second annual Youth Leadership Summit on May 6, at Bradley's Renaissance Coliseum. Eighteen-year-old Teresa Scanlan, Miss America 2011, was the keynote speaker for about 400 high school students from Illinois' 18th Congressional District.
KATIE CHILDS '12 conducted interviews last December in Washington, D.C., and Peoria. She is an intern in the Peoria office of Congressman AARON SCHOCK '02. She was a summer intern in the personal and leadership offices of Speaker of the House John Boehner in Washington, D.C. Katie is a history major with a minor in political science. She is president of College Republicans at Bradley and is first vice chair of the Illinois College Republican Federation.
Bradley honors U.S. Rep. Steny Hoyer
Lauded for seeing past party labels and parochial positions, U.S. House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer received the National Bipartisan Leadership Award from Bradley's Institute for Principled Leadership in Public Service (IPL) on June 13 in Washington, D.C.
The award recognizes a national public servant who has modeled ethical, civil, and bipartisan leadership. "For his 30 years in office, Congressman Hoyer has been a role model for the bipartisan, civil leadership that the Institute for Principled Leadership in Public Service at Bradley seeks to promote," said Brad McMillan, executive director of IPL.

Now in his 16th term serving Maryland's 5th Congressional District, Hoyer served as House Majority Leader from 2007 to 2011. He is the second recipient of the National Bipartisan Leadership Award. U.S. Secretary of Transportation RAY LaHOOD '71 HON '11 received the inaugural award in October 2009.

Can The Chiefs Have Winning Record? 2010 Preview and PredictionAugust 14, 2010
Last Years Record: 4-12
Wins: Redskins, Raiders, Ravens, Broncos
Losses: Ravens, Raiders, Eagles, Giants, Cowboys, Chargers (2x), Broncos, Bills, Browns Bengals
Biggest Playmaker: Jamaal Charles
RB, Texas, Drafted #73 , 3rd year
Charles had a great second half of the year in 2009. Statistically, only RB Chris Johnson put up better numbers. He ended up with an amazing 5.9 yards per carry along with 7 TDs and 40 receptions. With Charlie Weis as the new offensive coordinator, those numbers should only increase this year.
Impact Player: Dwayne Bowe
WR, LSU, Drafted #23, 4th year
Bowe has the potential and talent to be a pro-bowler, he proved that in his first two season where he accumulated 156 receptions and 2,017 yards receiving. Last year Bowe was suspended for four games for violating the leagues substance abuse policy and was in coach Haley's dog house for most of the season. Chiefs fans are hoping they will see the old Bowe this season.
Biggest Offseason Addition: Thomas Jones
RB, Virginia, Drafted #7, 11th year
I believed that Thomas Jones was one of the biggest free agent players on the market. Yet many teams passed on him because of his age (32 years old). Keep in mind that for the first four years of Jones' career he never had over 150 carries. In his last five years he has been a workhorse for the Bears and Jets. He has had over 1000 yards rushing in the last five years and his most recent two years were the best of his career. So to me it does not make sense that Jones did not garner more interest. He should be a big addition to the Chiefs and should create a very good two back system.
Biggest Offseason Loss: Mike Brown
SS, Nebraska, Drafted #39 , 10th year
The Chiefs had low expectations for Brown last year, a guy that has talent but was often injured. Brown ended up starting all 16 games, having the second most tackles on the team with 103, and racking up three interceptions and two sacks. The Chiefs will be replacing Brown with a very talented rookie in Eric Berry, but his presence will still be missed.
Biggest Draft Steal: Javier Arenas
CB, Alabama, Drafted #50, Rookie
Arenas was part of Alabama's stingy national champion defense. Arenas is only 5'9", but makes up for his lack of height with great athleticism and instincts. He is also a dynamic punt returner, who broke many college records. Arenas should find his a way onto the field for the Chiefs.
Biggest Draft Reach: Dexter McCluster
RB, Ole Miss, Drafted #36 , Rookie
Dexter McCluster reminded me a lot of Kevin Faulk, a little undersized to be a full time running back but perfect for 3rd down draw plays, catching the ball out of the backfield and occasionally lining up in the slot. The Chiefs reached out to him in order to make him their new slot receiver and ended up passing on proven college wide outs Arrelious Benn, Golden Tate, and Damian Williams. I think McCluster could end up being a good player, but I don't think he was worth the 36th pick overall and I do not know if the Chiefs are going to be using him in the right way.
Offseason Grade: C
Going into the offseason, the biggest need for the Chiefs had to be their offensive line. Having a good offensive line to protect a young QB like Matt Cassel is extremely important to his development and keeping him healthy. Last year they let up 45 sacks and Cassel did not look nearly as comfortable as he did in New England.
X-Factor: Defense playing up to their potential
The Chiefs defense is filled with talent and top picks. They have filled their team will highly touted first rounders: DE Tyson Jackson drafted #3, DE Glen Dorsey drafted #5, S Eric Berry drafted #5, LB Derrick Johnson drafted #15, OLB Tamba Hali drafted #20. All of whom are under the age of 30. If their defense can put it together they could be very scary.
Name You Should Know: Chris Chambers
WR, Wisconsin, Drafted #52, 10th year
Chambers was once a star in the league for the Dolphins, catching 11 TDs in a season two times. He completely dropped off since 2006 but re-emerged last year playing nine games for the Chiefs and bringing in 45 receptions for an impressive 16.2 yards per reception. I would not be surprised to see Chambers have a break-out year for the Chiefs.
Rising Star: Brandon Flowers
CB, Virgina Tech, Drafted #35, 3nd year
In only his second year Flowers emerged as one of the best players on the Chiefs, picking off five balls, forcing two fumbles and having a very impressive 23 pass breakups. Flowers should be someone we see playing in pro-bowl games in the coming years.
Offensive Outlook: C+
Charlie Weis and Todd Haley have very impressive track records on the offensive side of the ball so you have to like your chances with them as coaches. I also think that Thomas Jones and Jamaal Charles could be one of the best tandems in the NFL. Unfortunately for the Chiefs there are some big questions marks with the offensive line and QB Matt Cassel.
Defensive Outlook B
There is so much talent on the defensive side of the ball for the Chiefs that this has to be the year that they become a top defense, right? We will see what happens.
Special Teams Outlook: A
Adding Javier Arenas and Dexter McCluster can't hurt in the return game. Ryan Succop had an impressive rookie year and will only get better. Dustin Colquitt is one of the top punters, if not the top punter in the NFL.
Projected 2010 Record: 10-6
The Chiefs are a young team with a lot of potential. They are one of my favorite teams and I think there is no question we will be talking about them in the playoffs very soon. If they can play up to their potential they have the talent to make the playoffs. With Weis helping out Cassel and Jones and Charles in the running game, I think their offense will be fine even with a bad offensive line. Their defense should surprise some teams this year. I pick the Chiefs as my surprise team for 2010.

News Listing Page > News Archive > KU Medical Center works with prisons to provide better care to elderly inmates
August 18, 2014
By Aubrey Bittel
|Linda Redford, Ph.D.
The number of aging men and women incarcerated in U.S. prisons has increased by 500 percent in the last several decades. But most prisons are unprepared to provide this rapidly growing group of prisoners with adequate health care, which can cost as much as nine times more than for younger inmates.
Linda Redford, Ph.D., director of the Geriatric Education Center and the Rural Interdisciplinary Training Program at the Landon Center on Aging at the University of Kansas Medical Center, has developed and implemented programs to help prisons meet the needs of the country's aging prisoners.
"Ten years ago, prison administrators didn't consider addressing the special health care challenges of elderly inmates as a problem," Redford says. "Health staffs were more focused on diseases such as AIDS and hepatitis in the prisons' general populations. Geriatric training wasn't a priority."
With the widespread implementation of habitual offender laws (also called three-strike laws) and more severe punishments for drug-related crimes, prison populations have swelled. Inmates are serving longer sentences and encountering more age-related health problems as a result. Older inmates face many of the same health issues that non-incarcerated seniors deal with, but treating them in prison is a complicated and costly process. In the case of a physical health issue such as disease or accident, inmates are usually transported to a nearby medical facility where they are treated by hospital staff and constantly guarded by one or more prison officials. If they recover to an adequate condition they are moved back to the prison, but many die in the hospitals. If they suffer from Alzheimer's disease, dementia or other mental illnesses, they are often left in general population, despite the danger they may pose to themselves and others. Corrections officers, who are not generally trained to know the difference between normal behavioral problems and those associated with geriatric illnesses, often punish prisoners who are not in full control of their actions.
In an effort to change this attitude, Redford began training sessions at several prisons in the Midwest, beginning with prison staff at Jefferson City Correctional Facility, a maximum security state prison in Missouri. She started by trying to educate correctional officers on specific behavioral signals they may observe in older inmates.
"The officers need to be able to recognize the difference between someone who is acting out and someone suffering from dementia," Redford says. "We also engaged the health staff, who had previously been more focused on communicable diseases. A dialogue was opened between the health staff and the correctional officers, allowing information regarding specific inmate's behavior and health conditions to be used in determining care and discipline."
But Redford is not just spreading awareness of geriatric issues with prison officials — she is also holding training sessions with inmates in prison facilities in Kansas and Missouri. Many inmates who attended the training sessions are now trained in palliative and hospice care and have become daily living attendants for prisoners affected by Alzheimer's, dementia and other geriatric conditions. Responsibilities and freedoms vary between facilities, but in hospice units the trained inmates often care for one or two patients, and they typically live in close proximity, sometimes even within the same cell. They assist patients with getting dressed and bathing, getting medications, transporting them throughout the unit, organizing activities such as crafts and board games, and overseeing approved exercises. All trained inmates work on a volunteer basis.
"They're an amazing group, and they are very carefully chosen," Redford says. "Yes, some of them have committed violent crimes, but they see this as a form of redemption. They can't help their victims, but they can help other people."
Redford says health education for the staff as well as the inmates can change the entire culture in these prisons. She believes that having guards who are more patient and understanding with the older inmates can help a prison's general population see more humanity in themselves. It has also driven many of the inmates to take an active interest in their own health.
"They ask questions; they're hungry for information," Redford says." They now know how empowering it can be for them to take responsibility for their health and well-being."

ANDY MURRAY revealed a fast start was key as he brushed aside Joao Sousa yesterday – and, crucially, conserved plenty of energy for the challenges which lie ahead at the Australian Open.
The world number three was too strong in every facet of the game as he won 6-2, 6-2, 6-4 against a game but, ultimately, outclassed opponent.
In temperatures which exceeded 100 degrees Fahrenheit, getting the job done quickly was vital and Murray was engaged for a mere hour and 41 minutes as he booked his place in the third round against resurgent Lithuanian Ricardas Berankis.
Murray admitted afterwards that by getting out of the blocks so swiftly in the first set allowed him to tailor his game-plan to the conditions.
He said: "I got up a couple of breaks pretty quickly in the first two sets so I could play, not loose points, but I could try to shorten the points, which helps.
"I also served well today. I got a lot of free points on my serve. There were very few long rallies, so it worked out well for me because they were really tough conditions."
The US Open and Olympic champion took to Hisense Arena in early afternoon and he admitted it became particularly difficult when the sun broke through the clouds.
"It was actually OK when the sun was in, but when it came out it got really hot, really quickly," he added.
"It was a good match to get done in straight sets."
A straight-set victory was never in doubt with Sousa's game simply not big enough to cause Murray any significant problems.
The world number 100 from Portugal had limited chances to impress as Murray dictated the match from the baseline.
And on the rare occasion he had to escape from trouble, the Scot's serve came to his aid.
Roger Federer swatted aside the challenge of Russian veteran Nikolay Davydenko to join title contenders Novak Djokovic and Murray in the third round.
Federer was at his elegant best to cruise through 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 and improve his head-to-head record against Davydenko to 18 wins from 20 matches.
The world number two, bidding to become just the second man in history to claim five Australian Open crowns, will now meet home hope Bernard Tomic.
Tomic earlier hit back to beat Daniel Brands in four sets, after which he talked up his chances of beating the 17-time major winner.
"I feel so confident," he said. "It is the perfect time to play him. I've got a good attitude to win, and I think I can do it."
