I vote Night Elf (Dodge) or Human for the Expertise/everyman/rep
I play a dwarf and stoneform is nice but not game changing
Hi, this is my first Thread, and my english is not at the top :s so Im sorry if I spell wrong or use some wrong words.
Anyways, I have been looking the most Forums I could find about Warriors thru, but I just don´t see a single one that describe the thing I need.
I have always been Horde tank (tauren) But I started in a new school, and they found my tanking ability quite good, so they said "Hey! Why don´t you join our guild?", I said "That´s fine with me", I was super glad about getting a new guild
-But ofcourse there was a flip side... all of them played on a different server than me, and they are Alliance.. I have never played Alliance.
-But ! I have been trying to do some Math around what would be the best race to tank as, and my choise is between Dwarf or Human. Mostly because Humas has the racial :Every man for himself, and +10% rep
Dwarf has the racial :Stoneform
-But from the encounters I have tanked it is more usefull to be abel to be "sane" than stop Bleed and Poisen + 10% armor.
And I also took a look at the skema over Stam, Agi, Strength, Armor, and HP
For me it looks like Dwarfs will be abel to get a little more Health in the high end because of the major lead from the beginning and the stam advanage, but Humans will get more Armor and avoidanse.
-So My question to you at Tankspot.com : What is the best race to tank as? when you think about the Racials too.
I vote Night Elf (Dodge) or Human for the Expertise/everyman/rep
I play a dwarf and stoneform is nice but not game changing
i would say night elf from a min/max perspective, but human for easier rep grind (grinding rep on one toon is one thing, but doing it all over again on an alt is /wrists) and an option to have good dps racials if you find yourself dps'ing a few runs while you gear up your tank set. every man for himself is a pvp-only racial (like will of the forsaken for undead) when you are comparing racials. it is very very situational in a pve environment that it isn't even worth mentioning unless you do serious arenas as well.
if i were to re-roll from my tauren warrior, it would be orc first choice then human as second (i'm main spec dps though and orc have probably the best dps racials).
|Ex Tank|
Just wondering why Warrior over Paladin, Druid or Death Knight?
If your Tauren is lvl 55+ you could just make a DK on the server your friends play on, you will start at a higher lvl and can spec into tanking.
As far as picking a race....I play a human warrior/paladin/DK and a night elf druid. (trying to get 1 of each of the tanking classes)
Their isnt a better or best "race" for tanking when picking one, in my opinion anyways
Hey there!
There is no such thing as a free lunch... there is no such thing as a best race... it's all a tradeoff!
But since you will be levelling a new toon and grinding all that reputation (e.g. sons of Hodir) I would vote human.
Minmaxing is a different story but I leave that to someone more knowledgeable... :-)
Most good abilities are siuational. It's not going to affE t most things but a free trinket is nice. The NE racial is now 2% miss which is a big upgrade from the old dodge buff. Gnomes are probably the worst race for it
Dwarfs! Cuz they're short!
-something witty here-
My Warrior is lvl 80, and I already Got a Lvl 80 DK, but they are 1) to boring to Tank, because DK tanking is all about knowing the encounter and then have some situration awareness. and 2) They allready got a DK tank, they need a warrior But I can Ask them if I can Roll DK
-But as I see it, you say: Human if I want fast Rep, No need for Every man for himself. Dwarf cuz they are short, NO GNOME ! (I hate devastete your kneecaps) Night Elfs because of 2% avoidance which is great !
If I can do DK Tank I´ll Roll NE cuz of 2% avoidance
If I Roll Warrior I Guess it´s going to be NE Too, because I will only need to farm dailies for SoH. So the + 10% rep is not that much..
Thanks anyways! But If you got more suggdestions then feel free to post them
And To RedNeck6979, Warrior because I have played it since 7 days before Opening of AQ So I pretty much know how to do Drood has never been my strong side as anything other than Healer, even though healing is more fun from my opinion as Priest. I already do DK tanking And Paladin is just 969 rotation, I like the idea of being abel to pull as Hobbs, and make huge gold!, but Frankly I think pala is alittle "Look at me, im 10 years old and I can tank a whole instance without knowing what im doing" (NO OFFENCE Palas!)

WASHINGTON - A 16-year-old has died after being hit by a car in downtown D.C., and police are asking for the public's help in locating a vehicle involved in the crash.
The Metropolitan Police Department said the girl died Saturday about 2:15 p.m. The girl, who police said was from northwest Washington, was struck Friday around 6 p.m. at the intersection of First Street and New York Avenue NW.
Police say a 2003 Pontiac Bonneville had a green light and crossed through the intersection when the car hit the girl who was crossing outside of a crosswalk.
A tan sport utility vehicle with D.C. plates then ran over the girl, who was lying in the road. The driver of the Pontiac remained on the scene but the SUV did not stop.

Nebraska and Georgia held their final full practices on Sunday afternoon in preparation for Tuesday's Capital One Bowl in Orlando. Both teams will have a walk-through on Monday.
"We feel like we have done everything we can do to get ready for this game," said Georgia head coach Mark Richt. "We are going to have to get after it because I'm sure Nebraska has been preparing just as hard. It will be interesting to see how the game develops after it gets going. I've been watching some of the other bowl games and it seems like one team might come out with the juice and then the other team ends up coming up with it later in the game. We have to make sure we channel our emotions and concentrate throughout the game."
The Huskers joined the Bulldogs at the DisneyQuest Indoor Interactive Theme Park Sunday morning following a Fellowship of Christian Athletes breakfast. The players had the opportunity to interact and play video games with a group of disadvantaged Orlando youth.
"Everyone has a good time, us included," said Husker guard Spencer Long. "It's pretty special to take a kid around and have fun with him for awhile. They enjoy it and so it's a good experience."
"Most of them, it's their first chance to get in there and be around players like us," said Husker safety P.J. Smith. "Both teams, Georgia and Nebraska, been around guys sort of like them, just go in there and tell them anything is possible, that's one of the main things."
"Oh yeah, gives them something to look up to," said Husker linebacker Alonzo Whaley. "It gives them hope that they can make it no matter what. Never give up, that's the biggest thing."

Mozart: String Quintets
Mozart: String Quintets
2CDs Dyad (2 for the price of 1)CDD22005
Movement 1: Allegro di molto
Track 5 on CDA67861/3 CD3 [10'31] 3CDs
Movement 2: Andante

Movement 4: Allegro
Track 8 on CDA67861/3 CD3 [5'12] 3CDs
The opening Allegro di molto contrasts a prevailing tone of jocular banter (the horn call is rarely absent for long) with a sinuous second theme, proposed by the first violin and repeated by the cello against veiled chromatic counterpoints in the violas—a wonderful moment of Mozartian expressive ambivalence. For his slow movement Mozart writes a popular-style Romance in gavotte rhythm, of a type familiar elsewhere in Mozart (most famously in Eine kleine Nachtmusik) and Haydn. Like many Haydn movements it fuses rondo and free variation form, with episodes that develop the dainty gavotte theme in increasingly ornate textures.
The jaunty minuet works its ubiquitous descending scale motif in ever-changing instrumental combinations before the violas finally turn it upside down—a slyly witty touch. With a nod to Haydn's Symphony No 88, the trio presents a lolloping Ländler over a rustic drone bass. In spirit and technique, even the cut of its contredanse tune, the monothematic finale echoes another recent Haydn work, the E flat String Quartet, No 6, from the set published as Op 64. Like Haydn's finale, it virtuosically combines the popular and (in eighteenth-century parlance) 'learned' styles. Brilliant sallies for the first violin and evocations of a gypsy band rub shoulders with bouts of cerebral fugal writing. Then, near the close, Mozart plays the Haydnesque trick of casually turning the melody on its head (shades here of the minuet), before the quintet ends in a volley of sardonic laughter.

You always know there is going to be some kind of magic when you arrive at the Chanel show. This season's towering wing turbines stretching the length of the marathon catwalk in Paris' Grand Palais was no exception – and with a solar panel look catwalks we wondered was Karl about to go eco?
Whatever Monsieur Lagerfeld's green credentials, we were treated to a light, youthful collection of easy to wear pieces which skimmed several of this season's biggest trend notes. From a strapless denim mini dress with jean pockets stitched to the chest to cool oversized sweaters with voluminous leg o-mutton sleeves, Karl tuned into a fun, girlish vibe.
While there were more than 20 looks in a simple monochromatic palette, colour also flooded the line. We had a striking cobalt coloured sack dress, a purple tweed suit trimmed in lime and clashing window pane motifs in red and royal blue. Accessories were equally light-hearted with a massive hula hoop style beach bag, striped summer wedges and Perspex brimmed hats in the mix.
The silhouette focused on A-line skirts and skinny pants paired with cropped jackets and the skirt as dress look was featured in several exits – we'll definitely need to be getting that Tracy Anderson workout DVD out come Spring.
Pearls were given another lease of life this season, embellished on to dresses and worn in cluster necklaces. Our favourite pearly placement? On the glove-lets and mega pearl cuffs – both sure-fire accessory winners.
Overall the collection was one of the freshest of the season – infused with the spirit of 60s youth but made modern for today's bright young things.

Are a person a lot more of the William Hung than your usual Kelly Clarkson? Or Perhaps are you a decent singer–and wish you had been a little better? Whatever the vocal skill, these methods for giving an individual better vocal range voice are usually positive to get an individual vocal as well as sounding a lot better.
Tip 1: Feel concerning breath. Without Having appropriate breathing, you're not using your voice to be able to its total potential. In Order To find out in case an individual are breathing appropriately regarding singing, place the hand in your stomach along with inhale. your hand must move out–your abdomen ought for you to be expanding, not necessarily your current ribcage as well as chest. That's as you need to support your own breath along with your diaphragm–the muscle underneath the lungs which inflates them. the diaphragm can be activated by abdominal muscles, and also it's a lot stronger compared to muscles involving the ribs–the muscles you're utilizing if your current chest, not necessarily your own stomach, expands along along with your breath.
You'll need to have strong breath to give your current voice adequate assistance with regard to singing. to do this, you'll need to use your abdomen reducing abdominal muscles to support the vocal exercises for singers breath. Ab crunches and also sit-ups may help you build up strength on this location that you simply may use in order to project your own voice.
Tip 2: Focus on posture. Your Current breath travels from your lungs straight up via your mouth. In the event that its passage will be twisted, kinked, or blocked in any way, it certainly won't be in the position to get out efficiently. How an individual stand provides a huge effect about how you sound. you needs in order to be standing with your legs about shoulder-width apart. your chest ought for you to be lifted to provide your own lungs more compared to enough room for you to expand. Your Own shoulders needs to be able to be back again along with relaxed.
Tip 3: Relax. If there's tension anywhere from your abdomen for your head, it'll affect the sound. Your Own facial muscles, tongue and also throat muscles, vocal cords, jaw along with shoulders must almost all be as relaxed as possible. There are plenty involving jaw as well as facial exercises as well as warm-up actions that will help you relax the actual muscles in your shoulders, face, as well as vocal cords.
Tip 4: Realize exactly where to set your current tongue as well as soft palate. the soft palate needs to end up being able to be raised–this gives more room to your voice for you to resonate. The Particular suggestion of one's tongue should be positioned from the rear of your teeth. This may maintain it via blocking the throat if it's positioned too far back.
Tip 5: Watch what you eat. There's absolutely nothing better to your voice as compared to water. Period. If you have a new performance coming up, stay away from dairy as well as thick drinks regarding go to this website a minimal of 3 times beforehand. Consume only h2o the day in the performance.
Tip 6: Don't strain. Spend focus on your body. When one thing hurts whenever you sing, you're possibly in the restrict of your range as well as you're performing something wrong. you ought in order to be capable of sing with a strong, wholesome volume in case anyone are maintaining proper breath control; if some thing hurts because you're vocal as well loudly, you're probably not supporting your own voice well with your breath–the vocal cords are heading for you to do every 1 regarding the work. In your event that a person hurt when wanting to hit certain high or even lower notes, however, it could end up being that you're seeking to obtain a note that's outside of your range. It's correct that excellent breath manage can broaden the range, however the size of the vocal cords determines the particular pitches you tend to be able to reach. An Individual is possibly not capable of hit certain notes regardless associated with how well anyone assistance your own voice. It's essential to choose songs you can sing comfortably. above all, don't make an effort to sing if you have any sore throat–you may ensure it is worse.
Tip 7: Heat up just before singing. Don't go straight into a song with out a good warm-up first. A New excellent warm-up routine should focus on relaxing the physique and getting the breath ready, and really should start with simple deep breaths. This ought to progress to always be able to light humming from there, then some scale function once you are feeling ready. It's essential to not strain also hard during the warm-up process–don't reach pertaining to notes that will aren't comfortable, and do not sing from the surface of the the volume.
Tip 8: Find a teacher. A New good voice teacher can definitely help you enhance your voice. It's sometimes hard to see how an individual sound when you're through yourself; even http:///SUPERiorsingingmethodrevealed.COM the most devoted singer could enter improper habits without feedback. A New teacher can give you immediate feedback upon how you're performing along with address particular problems you could have.
It's the shame that consequently lots involving people consider they can't sing–and couldn't survive caught dead vocal within public. Throughout truth, vocal range is 1 thing anybody can figure out how to do. Comply With these guidelines and practice, and also you'll have a vocal voice you will end up proud to demonstrate off.

Is Blag dead? It sure has been awhile since the last release and blag isn't even listed amongst 311 distros on Distrowatch, now that's pretty sad.
What's the future and when?

I think
would be a better description than "dead." There have been a few initiatives to revive the project since September 2008, but it's been difficult to energize a committed core of contributors with the necessary skills to make it happen. It reinforces just how much time and effort Jebba put into BLAG for nearly five years.
Posted: Tue Apr 13, 2010 3:42 pm
Post subject: Well, this is embarrasing
It has been a month since I last posted and just over the past two to three days I have been using the livecd-creator tool to make an iso image that would be a reflection of the next release. A tabula raza so to speak that contains very little fedora branding.
So, first, I want to apologize for not being around for a month when I said it would only be a week. To anyone who has been following the project more as of late, it is my deepest intention that we have a new release this year and "I am sorry", if my lack of participation as of late caused any disappointment amongst you.
Sooner is always better now that Fedora 13 has an Alpha and that updates will still be readily available for the previous release, but later is better than never because we always have supported any release of BLAG and the efforts of every individual is worthwhile.
With that said, I have been documenting the efforts of creating the LiveCD on tearms.dyndns.org on a day by day basis. Not much content is available, but the purpose is to document the process of the components that I am interested in building before it all goes on the wiki.
Simultaneously, while I was working on the LiveCD, I begin using the other 8 Free distros listed on gnu.org to see what makes each of them unique. If you take a look at my recent identi.ca (http://identi.ca/tearms)notices, you can see some of the comments about the distros I have looked at so far. Reply to them is you have some feedback. What I see in the ones that I've viewed and used are the elements which make the Free Software community unique. As you all think about participating and becoming involved with BLAG, I want to stress that each of us has a unique element to contribute.
As I reflect on using gNewSense 2.3 predominantly a year ago as my main distro, I never imagined myself creating iso's, trying to setup a build system and communicating with as many individuals that I have met as I have become more involved in BLAG this year. I wanted to share that with you because, I think that many of us sometimes are hesitant in contributing because we feel that we do not have programming skills or specific skills to bring and I think its important that you bring what you know and build from that. On the flip side, I think sometimes the means to contribute or understand where you can contribute is not well documented. Both areas require that we as individuals break out of our shell and take a step and those that need help advertise the means by which we need help. This is something I need to get better at and during my break last month, I created groups within at
a collaborative tool, where individuals can join.
In March I started setting up commitees on we.riseup.net/blag to reflect areas where we need help or that may be of interest to people. Thus you have
I created these groups to reflect areas where I think we need to structure people's interest. And just so you know, you can belong to more than one group. I recommend that everyone join users at the very least, but if you have suggestions for other groups, just let me know. The purpose of this space is not to replace tools like the wiki, forum, lists, but have a space where we can build on ideas in a concrete environment. I define this as blagstorming. In any case, it provides the ability to upload documents, create new documents and other types of content which I think is important.
I want to go back and talk about shells and steps. GNU/Linux is evolving. Back in 1999 when I begin using Redhat 7.2, I remember thinking, "This is going to be the next great thing". I was not at all aware of the Free Software aspect, but as I grew to using it, I understood just how powerful the concept of Free Software would be in changing society. Thanks Richard Stallman. As, I have stated many times, I think what GNU/Linux has accomplished over the past quarter century is more than I imagined. It's adoption on the desktop is growing slowly, but in the mobile market people are using it and just not aware of it. It's important to me that people know what they're using because freedom, people's rights are important. In the digital age, I feel more people people do not take the time to understand or concern themselves with the implications and consequences this has for the future, which I think we all can be an agent of change in the present.
So, where as I used to be a singe distro non-libre user, I will start using each free distro to understand the challenges it meets in defining the freedom that I value. I try to reflect that personally in the devices that I use as well because I think in the next decade is where the challenge is going to lie in questions of freedom and privacy. GNU/Linux seems to be at the core of powering most of today's mobile devices and as the definition for computer evolves, so must we too with the devices out there that will connect us. A good discussion we can leave for the mailing list or live on IRC, as GNU/Linux evolves how we look at it may change to and it is natural that we may have to as well. That's my point about shells.
In terms of steps, I am referring more to infrastructure than anything, specifically to the tools we're using to move us forward. Our infrastructure consists of
main site(http://www.blagblagblag.org)
collaboration tool(http://we.riseup.net)
irc channel(irc://irc.indymedia.org #blag)
We are growing and as we do our infrastructure needs to reflect that. There is no longer a core developer. Each of us are now leaders who can contribute. I like that. It's not total democracy or anarchy, despite the political structure we live in or associate with. It's fantastic, but also trying at times when the information we need is not there or available. Another IRC discussion.
In any case, I wanted to bring up these points and provide a base where we could start based on jayeola's last message. I have been working an livecd/iso. Today, I was able to successfully create a 693MB image which runs nicely. The package list for the iso is:
I am especially proud that it has the latest kernel-libre by default. It still needs some work before we can call it an Alpha. On a thread on the forums, Spartacus was the name many people liked for the next release. It sits well with me, what do you think?
Also, myself, weyasey, jayeola and others have been working on building koji, the BLAG build package system and need some help with databases. Any knowledge on databases would be helpful.
You can find me or IRC and if you choose to sign-up for identi.ca, you can just send me a message.

Hey tearms, lots of good words there.
Btw I'm Xgates on Freenode, ran into you the other night on the #dragora channel, LOL...
I've been using Linux 10 years so one thing I do know is a good distro when I see one and what a lot of people seem to like in one, so when you get something up and running we can test I look forward to playing with it.
Btw it sure would be nice to see Blag move forward into it's own as a distro and not based off of anything, being independent.

Nice seeing you here. BLAG 90k is nice if you want to try it and our repo for it is active if you need the latest updates for that release. You can use the following thread to update the repos via yum.
If you want newer packages you will have to get the RPM's from the respective project. 90k is a nice stable system if you want to get your work done without much configuration.
So, how did you resolve the CD-ROM issue with dragora? Please let me know.
Please post your recommendations here about suggestions you have for which you think it can move on its own, rather than being based off something else. I would like to here what you have to say. We're on IRC as well on IndyMedia.
Check out this thread here for configuration if you need.
Thanks for bringing your feedback. Check out our development section to and feel free to add your comments there as well.

Hey tearms, lots of good words there.
Btw I'm Xgates on Freenode, ran into you the other night on the #dragora channel, LOL...
I've been using Linux 10 years so one thing I do know is a good distro when I see one and what a lot of people seem to like in one, so when you get something up and running we can test I look forward to playing with it.
Btw it sure would be nice to see Blag move forward into it's own as a distro and not based off of anything, being independent.

Well since I have a fairly new laptop I run Linux on I always try to find x86_64 distros, at the moment I've got Trisquel installed, it's been the best of the FSF distros I've used on the laptop, but I really wish Blag had a x86_64 iso.
Matista of Dragora updated 2.0 for better cd/dvd rom detection after I sent him an email making him aware of this problem.
Well obviously packs have to be compiled from the source before they get packed into .rpm, .deb, etc... So the question would be, does Blag make it's own rpms, or use Fedora's or other ones? If blag is already making their own packs, then this should be easy for the team to just start making some tar packs instead, then create a package manager program to install, remove, upgrade, etc., and bingo your moving own your way into your own independent distro.
Beyond package management I don't really know what you have to do different to be considered an independent distro. Would you have to make your own run level system also?
My experience tells me the only differences between distros are the packs/package management and run levels and then the various GUI tools one might make to do things, as an example Ubuntu's new little software app for installing and removing programs.

It is good to see a serious attempt to revive Blag.
Blag used to be based on Fedora/Red Hat which offers, in my opinion, not only a stable starting point, but also secures this base for the future. Of course there are elements that don't follow the guidelines of free software, but that shouldn't be a problem... there is always alternative software that can be used instead.
Blag used to be different, following its own path among other distributions. I hope it will stay that way. And because it is free, its users can remain free.

Carine Roitfeld always throws the most fabulous fashion party in Paris Fashion week - you might remember her ball last season to celebrate her MAC Cosmetics range where Kanye West, Kate Moss, Cara Delevingne and Karl Lagerfeld descended on the swanky historic Hôtel Salomon de Rothschild in Paree.
Last night was the CR Fashion Book Issue 2' - Carine Roitfeld Cocktail party at Hotel Shangri-La in Paris and all the FROW heavyweights were in attendance. Ms Jessica Chastain has been attending almost as many shows as veteran FROW-er Leigh Lezark in Paris this week, as she has been snapped with Karl Lagerfeld at Chanel, sat next to Naomi Watts at Louis Vuitton and walked across the Tuileries en route to Viktor & Rolf. So of course she was at the cocktail party, steering clear of her usual block brights in an elegant black sleeved, belted gown. How very Roitfeld of her.
Hollywood slarlets Amanda Seyfried and Jessica Alba were also at the party, seen chatting to Kanye West. But the biggest shocker of the night had to be Kate Moss who rocked up with Jamie Hince in nada but a sheer sequin catsuit and a tuxedo jacket. The 39-year-old left little to imagination in a barely there outfit - but HOW does she keep that derriere so pert?
Leigh Lezark looked oh-so Parisian in a back tuxedo with just a black bra underneath, while Miroslava Duma wore a red cape to the event. Model Joan Smalls did an Angelina in a black asymmetric gown with a thigh high slit, whereas Karolina Kurkova went for a risky halter dress showing off a lotta lotta cleavage.
The fash pack all joined at the Hotel Shangri-La in Paris to celebrate the launch of CR Fashion Book 2, which is supported by Mercendes-Benz. The latest book is themed around Carine Roitfeld's obsession, dance. Roitfeld explains: 'I have always been obsessed by dancers' bodies and Russian ballets.'
Take a look through the gallery above to see Jessica Alba, Amanda Seyfried, Alice Dellal and more...

What an exciting Stuffed Animal Sleepover it turned out to be! The power went out at the library in the evening, but the sleepover kept going. In fact, it was extended to two days of nonstop fun. The animals played, did crafts, listened to live music (!), read, ate pizza, and of course snuggled up in a big pile and went to sleep. We can't wait to do it again. Take a look at our photo album of the night's events!
