We’re waiting in front of Joey’s storage locker, and I’m carrying a new, leather satchel.
I hate leather, but I’m tolerating it for the sake of completeness. Ariel keeps teasing me, even after she made it out of her version of thin air – the complete repository of material building blocks known as The Black.
Everyone is teasing me, at least a little, after I forced them to gulp down some text I found in the WOF Database that Nick Junk Magnet left me. He said:
“In 1989 I had a whole, spiral-bound notebook filled with another story, one that was eventually lost due to being in pencil – the pages rubbed against each other, making it all but illegible. That was Sarah’s first story”
He made such a big fuss about it, so I figured it would would at least be worth a laugh.
|
He wasn’t kidding about the illegibility – I could barely read the smeared pencil with my eyes, but Sarah OS quickly plowed through it, finding the most likely version of the text.
From other notes I found in that notebook, it was clear that no one else had ever read the text, for any number of reasons. Once the pencil went all crazy, due to one too many trips in his backpack, he just left the story in a far corner and moved on to other versions of Sarah’s life

[FIC] The tale of a Jedi on Dantooine the day of doom
The brisk morning shines upon the dew-covered courtyard. The Jedi Academy stands tall and proud, a beacon of hope for the settlers who seek refuge from the perils of other worlds. Kath hounds, long since tamed by a lack of Juhani's power, graze in the meadows while settlers watch them and discuss their crops, their land, and the new Sandral/Matale baby. It is a day of peace, and quiet. The Jedi Council debates, while the Padawans play.
This day is a day of normal perfection. Nothing disturbs the still fountain that is Dantooine.
Then, a ripple. Another... another.
A fleet of ships come out of hyperspace. The leading vessel is one that Carth Onasi would recognize.
A small fleet of ships arrives behind them. Single-passenger craft lie at the edge of the planet's gravity well. Waiting. Saul Karath signals the commander, who signals the captain.
Who signals the gunner.

aters appear in the ground as settlers run screaming in terror. They look back, and see the pristine Jedi Academy, still untouched by the shots.
Then, the first strike to hit the Jedi Academy seals their entrance into the Academy. Another blows a hole in the roof.
It is lost, the settlers realize, there is no hope for us now.
The outside of the Jedi Academy still looks quiet, as if following the Jedi adage of going down when struck, so

The sound of breaking glass yanks Curt from his sleep. Bolting upright in bed, he turns to face Gail, her eyes also blown wide with surprise.
"Downstairs," he mutters.
"Maybe," she whispers. Without taking her eyes from her husband, she fumbles for the cell phone on the nightstand beside her. "911..."
Curt hops out of bed.
"Curt," she pleads.
"I have to check." His scowl says too much: Three tours in Iraq and I come home to some scumbag in my own home. There's your freedom. He ignores her voice chattering into the phone. At the top of the stairs he pauses and listens for another sound. Nothing. The house is cold.

World football body FIFA has opened disciplinary proceedings against the Zambian Football Association for having allegedly transferred and registered players who were banned for match-fixing in Finland.
FIFA said on Friday that the Zambian FA had apparently transferred eight players without an international transfer certificate and outside of the registration period.
"In addition, the players were all suspended by the Finland Football Association for match-fix

ing offences and these sanctions were extended as to have worldwide effect by the Chairman of the FIFA Disciplinary Committee," it said in a statement.
"At least four of the eight players apparently played in official matches in Zambia despite being suspended on a worldwide basis."
FIFA said disciplinary proceedings were started on February 19 and the Zambian FA had been invited to explain its reasoning to the Swiss-based body with its position and any appropriate documentary evidence.

If Sam Donaldson had asked, then we would have gotten a straight answer. Is the Dallas Cowboy quarterback competition genuine or a charade? Does Steve Walsh really have a chance to beat out fellow rookie Troy Aikman, the $11 million man? Or is the Cowboys' new Arkansas-bred brain-trust of coach Jimmy Johnson and owner Jerry Jones just trying to jack up Walsh's market value?
Donaldson could have gotten it out of them. He sure had Jones flustered last Thursday night, live and on

A hard-hitting investigative journalist, Donaldson pounced. Did Jones make a habit of watching his players shower? How did Aikman look in the shower? Somehow Donaldson

Proposed state bond debt cap is irresponsibile
BY World's Editorials Writers
Saturday, February 23, 2013
2/23/13 at 7:11 AM
The House Appropriations and Budget Committee last week advanced a bill that would cap the state's bond debt at its current level, which, by the way, experts say is at least $300 million less than the state could easily manage.
The fact that Speaker T.W. Shannon, R-Lawton, is principal author of House Bill 2195, suggests that the measure will easily pass the House.
HB 2195 is touted as "a measure to ensure the public's tax dollars are spent and protected in a responsible manner."
Quite the contrary, making this arbitrary and ridiculous cap a matter of state
|
law would be the height of irresponsibility.
It would be irresponsible to cripple the state's ability to address the multiple millions of dollars in capital needs that face Oklahoma, starting with its crumbling Capitol building and including its substandard roads and bridges. In fact, recent progress toward bringing roads and bridges up to snuff would go for naught if bond funds aren't available to continue the effort.
It also is irresponsible to say, as Speaker Shannon does in a press

Born March 1, 1900 in Scotswood-on-Tyne, Northumberland, to a family of Quakers, Basil Bunting first attended Ackworth School in Yorkshire and Leighton Park School in Berkshire until the age of eighteen. Bunting's Quaker education informed a strong opposition to World War I, and, after high school, Bunting

was arrested for being a conscientious objector to the war. For this, he was imprisoned at Wormwood Scrubs and Winchester until 1920. At twenty, Bunting relocated in order to attend the London School of Economics. There, he encountered a circle of writers, activists and intellectuals including Nina Hamnett and Mina Loy. It is thought that Hamnett first introduced Bunting to the poetry of Ezra Pound by loaning him a copy of Sextus Propertius.
While at the London School of Economics, Bunting was able to travel throughout Europe. Following his studies, he

BLU-RAY REVIEW: G.I. Joe Renegades The Complete First Season
A Fresh Take on the G.I. Joe Versus Cobra Conflict...
Up for review now is Shout! Factory's G.I. Joe Renegades The Complete First Season on Blu-Ray. My cable setup doesn't have the Hub in high definition, so being able to see this show in glorious 1080p is something of a treat. True, I could have gotten these episodes over iTunes, but having an actual set of physical discs with extras is important to me. In that regard, I was immensely pleased that Shout Factory opted to give us the series in this manner. And yes, while it is called the "First Season," don't expect a second

Penn State assistant coach Mike McQueary, a key prosecution witness in the trial of fellow football coach Jerry Sandusky, today yelled at a defense attorney when pressed about his claim that he saw Sandusky raping a young boy in the team's showers.
McQueary's confrontation with defense lawyer came after he again described finding Sandusky and a boy locked in what he indicated was anal sex, and how he left after making a loud noise and looking at Sandusky, but not speaking to him.
The boy in the showers has never been identified and McQuery's subsequent statements are at the heart of the university's dismissal of school president Graham Spanier, legendary football coach Joe Paterno and criminal charges against two other school officials for not alerting police.
McQueary's testimony is a centerpiece of the state's case against Sandusky and is the first eyewitness account of molestation in the trial. McQueary's eventual statement to investigators, in addition to the alleged victims' own claims, led to Sandusky's arrest on 52 charges of child sex abuse.
McQueary followed to the

stand a teenager being identified by ABC News only as Victim 1 whose wrenching story had jurors wiping tears from their eyes. Victim 1's story paralleled the story of Victim 4 who testified Monday that he was abused by Sandusky for years.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Lower levels of vitamin D circulating in the bloodstream are tied to a higher risk of developing diabetes in a new study of Australian adults.
After following more than 5,000 people for 5 years, the researchers found those with lower than average vitamin D levels had a 57 percent increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes compared to people with levels in the recommended range.
"Studies like ours have suggested that blood levels of vitamin D higher than what is recommended for bone health may be necessary to reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes," said lead author Dr. Claudia Gagnon, a fellow at the Western Hospital at the University of Melbourne in Australia when the study was done.
Vitamin D is manufactured by the body in response to sunlight and also occurs naturally in some foods, like eggs, cod and salmon. The vitamin is best known for its role in working with calcium to build bones.
The Institute of Medicine recommends that adults get about 600 IU of vitamin D a day to maintain circulating levels in the desirable range.
Past studies have shown that vitamin D may also help keep blood sugar levels under control (see Reuters Health story of February 23,
|
2011).
In type 2 diabetes, the most common form of the disease, the body can't use insulin it produces efficiently to control blood sugar levels. Vitamin D may play a role by increasing the release of insulin, Gagnon said.
To see whether circulating D levels and calcium consumption influenced insulin sensitivity and diabetes risk, Gagnon's team measured the vitamin D blood levels of

What is the Windows Experience Index?
The Windows Experience Index measures the capability of your computer's hardware and software configuration and expresses this measurement as a number called a base score. A higher base score generally means that your computer will perform better and faster than a computer with a lower base score, especially when performing more advanced and resource-intensive tasks.
Each hardware component receives an individual subscore. Your
|
computer's base score is determined by the lowest subscore. For example, if the lowest subscore of an individual hardware component is 2.6, then the base score is 2.6. The base score is not an average of the combined subscores.
You can use the base score to confidently buy programs and other software that are matched to your computer's base score. For example,

Intel's Maloney retires after 30 years with the company
Intel veteran Sean Maloney, considered the heir apparent to succeed Paul Otellini as the company's CEO, has decided to retire after 30 years with the chip maker.Agam Shah | Thursday, September 20 2012

But Maloney suffered a stroke in 2010 and took a leave of absence for several months, and returned last year to take on Intel's China

Part of an effort by city leaders to transform downtown into a vibrant urban space, the new Civic Space Park (424 N.

Her Secret Is Patience, a massive fabric-net sculpture that hangs over the park from steel rings, has garnered some controversy, both because of its abstract shape and its $2.4 million price tag.

It’s no news that college is the time of your life for drunken debauchery, and living in the thick of it–as opposed to with your parents–you tend to quickly pick up on a few things.
1. Only drink Four Loko under certain conditions. If you prefer getting slammed into being drunk rather than gradually getting drunk, drink Four Loko. If you have very little money but want to get drunk, drink Four Loko. But DO NOT drink the entire Four Loko. Because if you are a normal person you may explode. Or you’ll just get fat. (There’s 660 calories in one can!) Words of wisdom, people.*
2. The smell of alcohol-induced vomit lingers. Throwing up in your dorm after a big night out isn’t going to win you any favors. Gotta puke? Do it outdoors. In an isolated spot. In the woods. Or try a bathroom (the toilet, not the sink). Otherwise, it will stink up the entire floor for weeks and everyone will hate you. This isn’t a

Sometimes, people without alcohol experience only learn their limits when they go wild crazy and drink the equivalent of seven standard drinks (if you drink one Four Loko, you can get six of those drinks out of the way!) within a relatively short amount of time and then throw up four times and then cannot stand the idea of alcohol after that. You don’t want to be one of those people.

This is another broad question that can take you down the wrong road unless you've done some thinking ahead of time. This question is purely about selling yourself. Think of yourself as the product. Why should the customer buy?
The Wrong Track
Spencer answers by saying, "Because I need and want a job." That's nice, but the bottom line here is, "What can you do for us?"
Mariana says, "I'm a hard worker and really want to work for this company." The majority of people think of themselves as hard workers -- and why this company?
The Right Track
Tom's answer to this question is, "Because I'm a good fit for the position." Getting warmer, but more details, please.
Sharon answers, "I have what it takes to solve problems and do the job." This is the best answer so far. Expand on this, and you've got it.

The bottom line of this question is, "What can you do for this company?"

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The Oracle of Omaha earned his nickname — and more than a few billion dollars — by spotting investments that others overlooked, but Warren Buffett makes mistakes.
No, really, he does.
Just pick through Buffett’s annual letters to shareholders of his conglomerate, Berkshire Hathaway. His pronouncements are eagerly anticipated by investors around the world. But sometimes even the Oracle gets it wrong.
|
By the second page of this year’s letter, released Saturday, Buffett was borrowing a tennis term to take credit for “a major unforced error” he’d made on some Texas utility bonds.
Of course, Buffett’s shareholder letters are filled with a lot more good decisions than bad ones. His $44 billion fortune attests to that. But the blunders are instructive. Or at least remind us that he’s human.

A form of visual "hypnosis" used to make people think, at first glance and hopefully longer, that you are more attractive than you actually are through the use of:

TV: “Rumbling in ground near massive sinkhole” — Update: Floor of salt cavern rising much faster than previously reported
Title: Scientist reports above-normal seismic activity at sinkhole
Source: WAFB 9 News
Date: Feb 05, 2013 7:39 AM EST
Experts are looking into the cause of recent rumbling in the ground near the massive sinkhole in Assumption Parish.
A scientist with the Center for Earthquake Research and Information reported there has been above-normal seismic activity around the site for several days. [...]
Texas Brine’s Feb. 3 Update (h/t The Bugle): “[Cavern] floor had risen 100 feet since last measured on Jan. 18.”
A 100-foot rise over a 15-day period is an average of almost 7 feet per day. Previously, the cavern floor had been rising at a rate of less than 1 foot per day (Sources: 1, 2, 3).

Developed by Dimps and overseen by Sonic Team, Sonic Rush is a very classic Sonic game in appearance. Similar to the early Sonic the Hedgehog games and the Sonic Advance games, Sonic Rush plays along a 2Dimensional plain. Each screen of the DS is used entirely for game play, as the player will stay centered in the center of one of the screens. After ascending of descending far enough, however, the player will switch from one screen to the next.
Sonic Rush allows players to play as both Sonic the Hedgehog and a new character, Blaze the Cat.
Blaze, a cat-like creature from another dimension, has mysteriously landed in Sonic's Dimension. Sonic and Blaze's dimensions each seem to share certain similarities with each other, such as Doctor Eggman and Eggman Nega being after each dimensions emeralds, the Chaos and

Firstly, let us put to one side the nonsense: The President of Iran’s visit was not about embedding Lebanon as a part of the Iranian state, nor was it about paving the way for any Hizbullah ‘take-over’ of Lebanon; and nor can the visit be described as a ‘provocation’. It was of course self-evidently intended to express defiance towards Israeli military hegemony and to assert a stand of counter-deterrence to any Israeli military threat, but that it is very

different from an ‘act of provocation’ deliberately intended to draw an Israeli response. All these claims for the purpose of the visit are just a part of the psychological warfare mounted against Iran, and can be ignored.

Turbine construction is complete, but some land reclamation work still remains to be done.

It was hard to stop taking pictures of the turbines and the scenery.
Group discussions about wind power.
It's most efficient to align the turbines in rows. If topography and the wind regime allow it, the side-to-side spacing is 4 rotor diameters between each turbine, with a front-to-back spacing of 12 rotor diameters.
The blades spin up to 14-20 rpm, and the tips of the blades can travel up to 200 mph.
The surrounding geology was noteworthy too.

Transient ischemic attack
|Transient ischemic attack|
|Classification and external resources|
A transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a transient episode of neurologic dysfunction caused by ischemia (loss of blood flow) – either focal brain, spinal cord or retinal – without acute infarction (tissue death). TIAs have the same underlying cause as strokes: a disruption of cerebral blood flow (CBF), and are frequently referred to as mini-strokes. TIAs and strokes cause the same symptoms, such as contralateral paralysis (opposite side of body from affected brain hemisphere) or sudden weakness or numbness. A TIA may cause sudden dimming or loss of vision (amaurosis fugax), aphasia, slurred speech (dysarthria) and mental confusion. But unlike a stroke, the symptoms of a TIA can resolve within a few minutes or

Chicago hot dog war ends in truce

Which is top dog — Oscar Meyer wieners, a Kraft product, left, or Ball Park franks, a Sara Lee Corp. product? A court battle on the question has ended in a truce.
Associated Press file photo
A dogfight in federal court over who makes America's tastiest wieners has ended with a fizzle.
The two-year battle pitted Sara Lee's Ball Park and Kraft Foods' Oscar Mayer hot dogs. Both alleged the other exaggerated their claims about being No. 1.
The sides announced Thursday they settled out of court nearly a month after their civil trial began.
Sara Lee spokesman Mike Cummins says the terms are confidential. But he says neither side paid money to the other.
The legal beef began when Sara Lee filed a lawsuit in 2009, singling

out Oscar Mayer ads bragging its dogs beat Ball Park franks in a national taste test. Kraft countersued, accusing Sara Lee of running ads for Ball Parks with the tagline "America's Best Franks," based on a food-industry award.

While everyone is still busily running old content to gather their armor for Transmogrification purposes, I'd like to gather a list of all the resources I've seen over the last couple of weeks for finding your perfect look.
Firstly, my own posts on leather gear (might as well start with myself):
- The twelve Druid tier sets and their recoloured look-alike sets
- Other leather dungeon and raid sets
- PvP sets
- Crafted by leatherworkers
- Uncommon (green) sets
I'm not planning on adding to this series, although if anyone has suggestions for additional info they'd like or improvements to the existing posts, please let me know, I'd love feedback!
Update 23/9: There has been a blue post detailing the current list of rules for Transmogrification.
Perculia of the Wowhead blog has put together an impressive series of posts about Transmogrification for all armor types including:
Here are some other great resources from around the community:

to evaluate turbines
In response to “Richfield right to reject moratorium,” first of all, let me say that equating a moratorium on 500-foot wind turbines next to your home to large soft drinks is almost funny if it were not so dangerous. We citizens who are against the turbines have as much right to our way of life as people who are for them.
As of now, all we are asking is for a moratorium. I breed thoroughbred horses. There have been studies both pro and con about the turbines’ effect on farm animals. I have a relative who is autistic. There have been studies, again both pro and con, about the effects of the rotating blades on people with autism. Am I supposed to not have visits from her for fear

of something happening to her while here? If we have a moratorium, these and many other issues can be dealt with.
Why is it that the pro-turbine people do not want to have any discussion on the effects of the turbines, and they want them as long as they are not near their homes? In almost every locality where they have been erected, they have had major problems and lawsuits filed against the companies

Why I Teach the Parts of Speech
Actually, I wanted to write about phrases and clauses and about teaching them as adjectives and adverbs. However, that reminded me how many teachers I’ve run into over the years who disagree that the names of parts of speech should be taught to students. I argued with a publisher over this for at least three years, actually, before being “allowed” to teach the parts of speech in a textbook for lower-level students. So let me take a brief diversion to defend this position.
The arguments against teaching the names of the parts of speech are mainly that the terms are too difficult for students to
|
learn, and further, that they aren’t helpful. I disagree with both of these arguments.
Minimally, I think students should know noun, pronoun, verb, adjective, adverb, preposition, and article. With advanced students I might add in determiner. OK, that’s seven words. Is that too high a vocabulary load, especially when most of those concepts exist in the learner’s native language? I think if they can learn seven objects in the classroom, or

As someone who’s relegated the full sized iPad to the back burner, it’s admittedly a bit awkward to pull this thing back out. But the folks at Belkin have a new product for me to try, and it looks cool enough to convince me to dust off my iPad 3.
Belkin is no stranger when it comes to iOS accessories, but this — the Ultimate Keyboard Case for iPad — is perhaps its most thoughtful. The case, which officially launches in May, was created for people who want to get things done on their full sized iPads. It works with any currently available full-sized

iPad, including the iPad 2, iPad 3, and iPad 4. It’s not the prettiest keyboard case on the block, and perhaps not the most durable, but it screams functionality.
Belkin sent me a product sample about a month ago, and I decided that I was going to put this thing through the paces. Instead of using it for a few days and reviewing it, I wanted to see if the case actually lived up to its moniker

U.S. High School Graduation Rate at Highest Since 1970s
U.S. students graduated from public high schools at the highest rate since the 1970s, with the largest leap for Hispanic students, government data show.
In 2009-2010, 78.2 percent of students earned a diploma after four years, compared with 75.5 percent the year before, according to a U.S. Education Department report released today.
President Barack Obama’s administration, many states and education and business groups have been pushing to improve high- school graduation rates, which stagnated in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s and fell behind the nation’s economic rivals. While the government said the reasons for the improvement aren’t clear, researchers credited elementary school preparation and better tracking of potential dropouts.
“It’s incredibly important,” Bob Wise, the former governor of West Virginia, said in a phone interview. “This is hard work, and there’s some progress being made.”
Wise’s Alliance for Excellent Education, a Washington - based advocacy group focused on improving graduation rates, estimates that the 1.3
|
million high school dropouts from the Class of 2010 cost the U.S. economy $337 billion in lost wages over their lifetime.
To discourage dropouts, school districts have instituted early-warning systems to track students, flagging absenteeism or failing grades in English and math, said BethAnn Berliner, a senior researcher with WestEd, a San Francisco-based research organization that works with states and schools.

In 1994, the cover of the February issue of Progressive Architecture (PA), featured an article entitled: “Can this Profession be saved?” The following year, (September 1995), PA continued its examination of the architecture profession, this time focusing on “The Schools: How they are Failing the Profession.” In January 2003, the Chronicle of Higher Education added to this literary invasion by deploying a missile across the bows of architecture education with an article entitled
|
: “The Multiple Failures of Architecture Education.” All three of these articles paint a very pessimistic picture of the state of architecture education and forces one to question the grand narratives of architecture education.
What these articles do not examine is that the major burden of educating African American and minority architects is being carried by only seven accredited schools of architecture at historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) who graduate 50% of all African American students in professional architecture programs. An immediate concern raised by these articles was whether the focus of these articles would be more

Don’t mind me, I take lengthy reprieves from the blog every now and again. Sometimes work rears it’s ugly head and absorbs all of the creativity out of me, sometimes there’s just other games I’d rather be playing. Most recently, the campaign has hit a rut. Players have dropped from the game citing work/college issues which means either attempting to recruit brand new, restart the campaign, or wait it out.
I’m a little tired of waiting to be quite honest. My mistake of course was picking up two guys that both work at the same place. When they get busy, chances are both of them have issues at the same time. Two other guys are both in college, and mid-term labs and tests all ran across a couple weeks which made things difficult to get rolling. The most recent being one of my players in the Navy Reserve. His weekend ended up being 4 straight days of intense drills and he slept straight through til Tuesday, missing game and everything.
Two of my guys have been solid since the get-go, and even they are getting annoyed that we haven’t had a solid group. These things are to be expected I guess. Life is challenging, D&D
|
night with the guys is just not that important in the long run. We still hang out, but it’s usually playing M:tG or Munchkin, drinking and bullshitting, sans dice. It makes me sad a little. I have creative things! So many things!
We did pick up a guy however, and he wanted to roll with a Templar, which is cool. However it brought up the issue that I’ve had for a long time regarding Clerics. I’ve always

APOPTOSIS A Bit of Anoikis
Many cells undergo apoptosis (programmed cell death) after loss of attachment to the extracellular matrix. This form of apoptosis, called anoikis, is suppressed by integrin-mediated signaling pathways. One of these pathways involves enhanced transcription of the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2. Jan et al. used a portion of integrin α5β1 to disable integrin signaling and screened

I've been thinking a good bit about how story often invites us into history, often by bringing "alive" a certain time and place in ways that textbooks just can't. And I came across a funny incidence of that just this morning.
I'm trying to read a certain amount of "church history" (in any form) every day, preparatory to teaching my class again in the fall. I'm not limiting myself to just re-reading the texts we'll use in class; I'm letting myself range wherever my interests take me. One of the books I'm reading is Paul Cavill's book on Anglo-Saxon Christianity. He provides commentary about the Anglo-Saxon period and then supports it with excerpts from primary texts from that period.
I was reading along this morning
