finally can submitt scorch customs :D
I have owning rights to this customs weapon and as such i believe i am able to make any variation of it as i want and as i currently don't have my ice bio i will try to make one for my scorch bio note that i am not dropping the one in the link as i want to keep it incase i remake haku ere is the link to said custom: http://www.narutobase.net/forums/sho...ng#post4240634 but if i have to i guess i'll be droping this custom weapon if the one below is approved.
i have only made minor changes.
yakekoge no Wa | scorch Ring
Type: Weapon
Rank: S-Rank
Range: Short
Chakra: N/A
Damage: N/A
The ring of the Scorch gaint of the sun Its made of a special metal that can channel fire , Wind and scorch chakra. Wielding the ring gives the user greater power for his fire, Wind and scorch jutsu and gives him the unique ability to materialize a weapon made of either one of these elements in the hand the ring is. For example, the user can materialize a hammer, a sword, a whip, a glove, a bow, etc. User must choose which weapon is materialized, and only one weapon may be used per turn.
+5 damage to Wind and fire
+10 damage to scorch
The elemental weapons that can be created are equal to S-Rank elemental jutsu
Creating the weapons counts as a turn
Weapons maintain themselves until destroyed or released
While wielding an elemental weapon, user can't make hand seals
Weapons can't be thrown but only wielded ( only exception is using a arrow for a bow and arrow or a fuma shuriken/kunai )
Can't channel water chakra while using elemental weapons
only -Haku Yuki- can use
notes: co maker scorps ( he helped me with the original version and so if he wishes he may use this if ever makes a scorch bio same goes with the ice version of the ring)
±± Declined ±± The concept of "weapons" (or in a broad sense, constructs) works great for water and ice and even wind (which have been seen used that way) and we can even use that concept for fire... but not for scorch.
Shakuton saku soukou ( Scorth release scorth traveling )
Type: supp
Rank: S
Range: short-long
Chakra Cost:40
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user will make two hand seals dog and tiger and will focus his wind and fire chakra into his mouth and build it up untill he has a large amount of scorch chakra in his mouth he will then blow The chakra out and make a single hand seal allowing the chakra to spread across the entire battle field. Now with the scorth chakra spread throuh out the air the user will need but manipulate teh scorth chakra into the desired scorch jutsu in any range as the chakra will be covering the entire field.
note: chakra lingers for 3 turns only
note: can only be used twice.
note: after jutsu wears off no scorth jutsu above A rank can be used for two turns
note: any scorth jutsu even if short range can be made in long range with this jutsu active.
note: can't be made so close to enemy they have no reaction time also the heat of the chakra can be felt as it spreads across the field.
note: doesn't work for stuff like armor ( just an example tehre is no such jutsu for scorth yet) or on barriers ( an example is right below this custom)
±± Declined ±± do not resubmit. Ridiculous
Shakuton saku kasei ( scorch release scorch barrier )
Type: Defensive/supp
Rank: S
Range: short
Chakra Cost:40
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user will make 3 hand seals dog, tiger and bird, and will then focus his scorch into every inch of his body and mix the chakra with his very cells he will then make one more hand seal and release the chakra into the air around him in a barrier like fashion but at teh same time will keep a large amount withen in him. with this any attack any mud style jutsu that comes near it will be dried into clay, any water evaporated and any wood dried out and turned brittle when they reach whiten short range fire which will only become stronger. the down side to this jutsu the user must keep the hand seal the entire time for it to work and after use cannot use water jutsu.
note: after use user cannot use water jutsu for two turns
note: can't use scorth above A rank for 2 turns after use
note: can only be used 1 time per every 3 turns
note: must keep hand seal entire time for jutsu to stay active.
can only evaporate water/ dry mud/ make wood brittle jutsu up to A rank
note: jutsu can only stay active for 2 turns per use.
±± Declined ±± You should read the release rules/definitions of scorch. You are making it more powerful than it is. Also, such a technique has been made countless times before for most and all every elements.

I'll be keeping an eye on this as well, specifically in regards to stat weights (the leaving expertise and reforging out of crit both makes sense and confuses me terribly! lol). The talent trees look to be in order though.
Thanks for any help you can offer in advance guys!
i just started raiding when cataclysm came. so i dont know if there is some thing i do wrong.
Going sunday firelands nicely just wondering if there is anything i can improve on ....maybe my talent and glyphs?'

I'm way better at holding my liquor than a panda.
OK, Bear stat priorities= Agil>Stam>Dodge>Mastery>Expertise>Crit=Haste=Hit. With high level gear this can get somewhat debateable due to having so much dodge DR makes it retarded to get more % out of any amount of rating. This stat priority basically means that your ideal peice of gear is passive mastery/expertise reforge expertise to dodge.
Awesome, thanks Greg. By the above standard, Zam, your gear looks pretty good, spec looks good, so I'd say you're ready to rock! Let us know how it goes.
I'm way better at holding my liquor than a panda.
Unfortunately, that's incorrect.Agil>Stam>Dodge>Mastery>Expertise>Crit=Haste=Hit
Agility > Dodge > Mastery > Expertise (to 26) >= Crit > Hit = Expertise (after 26) > Haste.
As for specific suggestions / pointers:
- Get the 371 PvP Helm/Shoulders. 2 piece bonus is awesome and it's the best thing you'll get until tier pieces.
- VP Necklace.
- Get the gloves from Shannox asap. Until then the 371 PvP gloves will work just fine.
- T12 Pants.
- VP Relic
- VP Ring
- Fluid Death
- H-Tia's is better than both of your trinkets. Although if you have the Dodge / Doge brewfest trinket use that instead.
- Switch to Agi/Mastery shoulder enchant
- +Stats is better than +Stamina to chest, but it still works.
- Assassin's Step is better than Earthen Vitality, but movement speed is the most important
- Don't reforge to Mastery
- Reforge out of Haste before Crit
- Reforge out of Hit before Crit
- Reforging out of Crit before Expertise is correct.
For any questions, go to www.theincbear.com/forums
Just guessing your still working on VP stuff like myself, but I went with the relic and trinket from the molten front daily - the moonwell portion. I also elected to go with the pvp necklace, since I assume the tier pieces are going to be a stronger VP purchase. (Initially) Granted my bear set is kind of my side project since I mostly heal, so spending VP on this stuff isnt practical for myself yet.
Last sunday i did 6/7 guild run. yes im still working at Vp iteams getting relic today
and i change my reforge from Mastery

Acne can be triggered by hormonal imbalances. Because of this, it can happen to anyone, at any age. When not treated properly, acne can leave horrible scars. These scars become more noticeable the older you get.
There are a variety of best acne treatments available to treat these scars and leave your skin looking healthy and radiant. The most effective treatments contain vitamin E. Vitamin E has more healing powers than most vitamins. However, any creams with natural vitamins will work, as well.
Preventing scars is much easier than trying to get rid f them after they develop. The first step in preventing scars is to never pop your pimples. When you pop your pimples, or pull off pimple scabs you have a much greater chance of ending up with scars.
There is not much you can do about the hormone changes your body goes through. But there is a lot you can do help your acne without leaving scars.
According to www.proacnetiv.com/, you need to clean your skin daily or twice daily with a good quality acne cleanser. You can use a mild exfoliating pad or cleanser to get deep down into your pores. The better you clean out your pores, the less acne you will have. Acne is caused by clogged pores. Your hormones can often cause your pores to clog up because of the excess oil produced by hormonal changes.
After you cleanse your skin thoroughly, you must close the pores and remove any excess cleanser with a skin toner. Make sure to get every part of your face, throat and neck. You may even have to cleanse down the front of your chest and back. Acne often spreads down the front and back of your body as well as all over your face.
Cleansing and toning dries out your skin, which is what you want it to do, but some of this moisture has to be put back. Moisturizer your skin after cleansing. Moisturizing will replace some of the hydration you have taken out, plus add nutrients to your skin. The more nutrients you put into your skin, the better chance it has to fight off acne.
If you have a very severe case of acne, you may have to cleanse your skin three times a day. The more often you have to cleanse your skin, the gentler the products you use should be. Over scrubbing or using harsh cleansers will make your acne worse. The idea is to heal your skin and prevent scars, not make the condition worse.

Post subject: How To Paint Federation Commander Miniatures
How to Paint a Starship
In this article, I'll show you how to paint your Federation Commander starships to a tabletop standard. I'll be using a Federation heavy cruiser as an example. The basic process is the same for all miniatures, but in later articles I'll show you specific techniques for painting ships of other empires.
Part 1: Preparation
The Preparation phase includes cleaning the parts of the miniature, assembly, and undercoating.
For the Preparation phase, you will need the following tools:
Needle files
Cyanoacrylate "super†glue or 5-minute epoxy glue
Plastic glue for the base
Primer, either brush-on or spray primer
I also recommend disposable latex gloves, a stable workbench with plenty of light and good ventilation (next to a window is good), Kneadatite epoxy putty (also known as "green stuffâ€Â) for filling gaps, pin vice (small drill) or Dremel for drilling pinholes, and fuse wire or paperclips.
These tools are all available from good hobby shops, and may be available from the store where you bought your miniatures.
Step 1: Examining the mini
The first thing to do when you begin is to make sure that you have all of the pieces. A Federation heavy cruiser should have 4 pieces: The saucer, the rear hull, and two warp engines. You should also have a two-piece plastic base.
Also look for bubbles, broken off pieces, or other significant deformities. Small problems are expected and can be worked around. For big ones, contact the store for an exchange. If you don't have all of these pieces, contact the store where you bought it or Sales at starfleetgames dot com if you bought it from ADB.
Step 2: Cleaning
Miniatures are cast in rubber moulds. Where the two halves of the mould meet, some molten metal seeps out, creating mould lines or "flash†on the miniature. Before the mini can be painted, this excess metal must be filed off. If these imperfections are left on the miniature, they become very obvious after the mini is painted. Proper preparation prevents poor painting!
Take the needle files and carefully file away any excess metal on the miniature. Thin "flash†can often be cut away with a hobby knife. When doing this, ensure that the miniature is held firmly. Always cut away from yourself when using a knife.
Sometimes, mould lines can be hard to spot. To make them more obvious, you can give the mini a thin "wash†of very diluted black paint.
Once that's done, wash the mini in dishwashing liquid and warm water, scrubbing it with an old toothbrush. This will remove any mould release agent or oils from your skin, ensuring that there is a clean surface for the paint to stick to. After washing, rinse and dry completely before continuing. Your needle files can be cleaned with a wire brush.
Step 3: Assembly
Don't touch that glue! Before we start gluing anything, we need to "dry fit†the pieces together to ensure that the pieces fit together properly. The rubber moulds used to make the miniatures tend to change with wear, so the pieces usually won't fit together perfectly and may need to filed down or filled up to fit properly.
When "dry-fittingâ€Â, gently try to put the piece into the slot it should go into. Don't force it, we don't want to break or bend the pieces. Ideally, it should fit snugly. If it won't fit, try to see what is preventing the fit. File that piece down a little, then try again. Repeat until the piece fits snugly. If it is too loose, see the section on filling gaps (below).
This is optional. To add strength to joints, it can be useful to pin the pieces together. To do this, drill a small hole in one piece using your pin vice. Insert a short length of fuse wire or paperclip wire into the hole, and glue it into place. After the glue has set, put a dot of paint on the end of the wire and "dry fit†the piece into place. This will leave a dot of paint on the other piece. Drill another hole where the dot is. When you glue the two pieces together, the wire will fit into the other hole and strengthen the joint. This isn't so important for display miniatures, but miniatures that get used in play may need the extra strength. The Federation heavy cruiser doesn't need pinning, but remember to pick it up by the base or rear hull, not the warp engines.
Filling Gaps
The Federation heavy cruiser miniature shouldn't have any significant gaps, but you might find tiny gaps where the neck of the saucer meets the rear hull, and where the engine struts go into the slots on the rear hull. These can be ignored, and just painted over. If you want to fill these gaps, green stuff can be used.
Take equal portions of blue and yellow putty, and twist them together. (You will only need a tiny amount.) Fold together until it is a uniform pale green colour. Roll a very thin snake of green stuff and poke it into the gap with a pin. Wait 12 to 24 hours for the green stuff to cure, then file away any excess.
I also found that the hole in the bottom of the rear hull for the flying stand was too large for the stem of the stand. To fix this, fill the hole with green stuff. Once it has cured, take your drill, and drill a hole large enough for the pin on top of the stem to fit. Glue the stand into the hole with superglue.
Superglue bonds on contact with skin, so when gluing, it's a good idea to wear disposable latex gloves. If the surfaces to be glued together are wide and flat, cut "scores†in the surfaces to be glued, as this gives a larger surface area for the glue to "gripâ€Â. Use the minimum amount of glue. More glue doesn't make a stronger bond, it just makes a mess.
Some miniature painters like to paint the pieces of the mini and then glue it, because this makes it easier to get the brush into awkward spots. It's up to you how you do it.
The primer, or undercoat, sticks to the metal of the miniature and gives the basecoat a good surface to adhere to. If the mini will be primarily painted white, or light colours, use a white primer. For dark colours use black. Grey primer can be used for either. If the mini is to be painted red, then red automotive primer is a good choice.
There are two kinds of primers: brush-on and spray. To apply a brush-on primer, simply apply it to the miniature with a stiff brush.
There are a number of different kinds of spray primer. I use Games Workshop Skull White or Chaos Black spray acrylic, but only because I have some around the house. It's quite expensive, and I don't recommend it.
Testor's and Armoury are popular, and automotive primers like Krylon can also be used. When using spray primers, ALWAYS use them in a very well ventilated area, preferably outdoors. The fumes are bad for your lungs. Put the minis in a spray booth (a cardboard box is good) to catch any overspray. Shake the can thoroughly for a couple of minutes. Spray in a smooth motion from side to side, "dusting†the miniature with the primer. If you spray it on too thickly, it will drown out the details on the miniature.
As you spray, you will find that the can starts to get cold. Stop spraying, shake the can a bit, then you can begin again. When finished, turn the can upside down and spray until no paint comes out. That will clear the nozzle and ensure that the paint stays usable.
Well, we've done a lot of work so far, but we're only halfway through! All this preparation work will pay off when the job is finished, however. In Part 2, I'll show you the fun part, painting!

Terry, that's quite a detailed description of processthat is over-looked (or not given much thought to) by many miniature painters. I have found that the proper preperation does more for the final quality of the miniature than almost any other single factor. You seem to have quite a good grasp of the necessities required for an excellent paint job. Have you posted any pictures of your stuff online yet?
I'd like to take a look at them (I'm always looking for fresh ideas to steal... errrr, borrow... ummm, I mean... use! (after asking proper permission, of course

Vanessa, I'd be very proud to have this in the newsletter. I will follow up the initial article with more on the painting process. If you want to use any of this stuff in the newsletter, you have
carte blanche
to do so. Once I've finished this series of "basic" articles, I intend to do a few on specific techniques, using SFU ships as examples: painting metallics (Tholians), painting red (Kzintis), tiger stripes (stealing Tony's Lyran technique).
Tony, thanks very much. I haven't posted any of my work online yet. This is for two reasons. Firstly, I've only just started painting SFU minis, although I've been painting minis on and off since high school. Secondly, I don't have a digital camera with a decent zoom yet. I will in a few months, I hope.
As for stealing techniques, feel free. You have blanket permission, and I'm going to "steal" the Lyran painting technique you showed me. When I get a digital camera, we should collaborate on an article showing the techniques.

Post subject: superglue
Did you also know that you can gap fill with superglue? simply sprinkle bicarb of soda (sodium bicarbonate) usually found in the kitchen over super glue and it sets instantly filling any gaps. When cured this can be sanded or filed. I use this for attaching figures to slottabases and fixing large anomallies in large 2 piece castings. It is also useful if you suffer a tube rupture over your hand as application instantly sets the glue preventing further contamination. flexing your fingures breaks the glue up and time and sweat allows the solid glue to be peeled off.

Two thin coats are more effective than one thick one. remember to allow the paint to dry thoroughly or it will come off with the next coat. The main skill of painting is patience.

Vanessa, unfortunately I no longer have a copy of part 2. I tried to upgrade my Windows recently, but my hard drive self-destructed to avoid capture.
I did email a copy to SVC: it's probably buried somewhere in his mailbox. If it can't be recovered, I can probably re-write it.

Delve into the world of botany with our collection of botanical art prints. Botanical art offers a way to embrace the floral interiors trend with an uncluttered, simple, fresh approach. Our collection features exquisite illustrations of fresh produce, plants and flowers from the Royal Horticultural Society's impressive archives. We've also got a range of detailed wallcharts from our notable Guardian Collection and a selection of floral close-ups from talented photographers.
Sign up for the Easyart newsletter to take advantage of this exclusive offer and receive updates on the latest artists and collections.
Gives the frame its character and provides the perfect setting for an artwork to be fully enjoyed.
Protects the artwork from dust and wilting so that it can be admired for many years.
Adds depth to an image and works with the moulding to enhance and protect the artwork.
Bonds to the artwork ensuring it is perfectly smooth and holds the whole frame together.
We partner with the world's top museums and galleries to bring you exclusive prints of the highest quality. Our teams of designers ensure the colours are accurate, papers are well suited and the best frames are suggested.
In the printing room, artworks are printed on state-of-the-art machines with a team of technicians checking colour and quality every step of the way.
After being cut down to size, our team carefully finish any stray edges, check measurements and prepare the prints for mounting and framing.
We have a team of master framers who work with high-quality, responsibly-sourced wood to create our vast range of framing combinations - each frame is bespoke and made to order for every print.
Our selection of hand-finished frames are painted or stained by hand in a variety of colours, and finished with a layer of wax - the end result is a uniquely crafted, beautiful frame that is made to last.
In this workshop everything comes together - the print, the frame and the glass - in a seamless and stream-lined process.
The artwork is carefully mounted in preparation for framing.
Once mounted, the print is ready to be covered by glass or perspex - a delicate procedure but expertly done with not a fingerprint in sight.
After a final, thorough check, the framed print is ready to be carefully packaged up and shipped to the customer.
For those who order their art as canvas prints, the same amount of attention and care goes into the process. Here, the print is being transferred to a wooden frame.
As with the framed prints, our canvases are all hand-finished in the workshop - a labour of love from start to finish.

Written by Senator Jack Martins Thursday, 03 April 2014 00:00
Can you hear it? Listen closely and you'll recognize the harmony of thousands of voices woefully singing, "It's the Same Old Song" by the Four Tops. They're parents from Buffalo to Montauk singing because the New York City-led state assembly voted to return three of the four Board of Regents members to their positions this past week. And the fourth one was only replaced because he resigned. That just about locks him in as the smartest member as far as I'm concerned, because he realized he was in over his head.
The Board of Regents is New York's 17-member board that dictates education policy to school districts across the state as well as shapes procedures at universities, adult education programs and even manages the licensing of professionals like architects and dentists.
This tone-deaf crowd is also responsible for the disastrous Common Core rollout that has become the bane of parents, educators and students. That's why I voted 'no' to reappointing all the incumbent Board of Regents members who were seeking another term.
Unfortunately, too many of my fellow legislators were content to let sleeping dogs lie.
With students failing standardized tests in droves and thousands of concerned New Yorkers demanding change, your representatives had an opportunity to deliver real improvement. There was an opening with this most recent board election to select new members with fresh perspectives, but the occasion was wasted by an ineffectual New York Assembly. They carry the majority of votes in the matter and despite our relentless pleas, they chose to rubber stamp the board and keep the status quo.
I've personally heard from thousands of parents about the Common Core rollout over the last several months. Not a single one said that it was positive. They're angry, frustrated, and disgusted with the way the Regents and the State Education Department has handled this process and the effect it's had on their children. And as a parent of four daughters still in school, I totally agree. We're especially disappointed that these Regents supported the New York State Education Department's contract with inBloom, the sharing of our students' data without regard to their privacy. They added insult to injury by spending $50 million to develop a sign-on portal and related technology to support the misguided initiative. When other states were bowing out, these Regents were doubling down.
These faint-hearted officials assure us that the vote "put a good scare into the board" and that it "sent them a message." Nothing could be further from the truth. Returning these members after this complete and utter debacle of a year tells them that they're absolutely safe, that they remain unaccountable, and that they will go unchallenged. Keep in mind some board members have served for much too long, one for 19 uncontested years. Can we really expect this entrenched group to be open to change?
My colleagues and I in the Senate will be working to pass legislation to try and set things right. In the meantime, Regents backers will be singing the same old song.

About Evanger's
Since 1935, Evanger's Dog & Cat Food Company, Inc. has been the finest natural dog food company in the United States. Founder Fred Evanger raised champion Great Danes and was a fervent believer that his dogs' health and the health of their offspring were dependent on wholesome, nutritious dog food - dog food without any preservatives and free of harmful additives. Frustrated with the pet food available to him, Mr. Evanger built a canning factory at his kennels. Almost 70 years later, we know that he was a man ahead of his time.
Reusable can lids are great for storing your pet's excess canned food in the fridge. Helps food stay fresh and last longer!

All Natural, Grain Free, Dog Loves It
By Gage's Mommy
from Rapid City, SD
Evanger's Game Meat canned dog food products are ideal for dogs who have to follow a special diet due to food intolerances and allergies. Our English Setter is grain intolerant, allergic to chicken and beef, and cannot tolerate some of the game birds either, such as turkey and duck. It took us a long time of trial and error to determine what food would not exacerbate his digestion issues while at the same time providing good nutrition. We finally settled on Evanger's for several reasons. Obviously, it is grain-free, but an additional plus is that we can find a variety of tastes that would make his diet a bit less monotonous. We feed him Evanger's Buffalo, Wild Salmon, and Pheasant, and he gobbles each of them right up. The fact that the food is made in the USA with US ingredients gives an additional peace of mind. Last but not least, for those who observe a Kosher diet and want their pet dogs to be Kosher too, Evanger's Wild Salmon is certified Kosher.All in all, we feel this food is great for the needs of our dog, and although on the pricier side, it is well worth the peace of mind that comes from knowing we are doing the best we can for our furry family member.
Wonderful food for allergic dogs
By catlady1
from Mobile, Alabama
I have a Chiapom that is allergic to Milk, beef, wheat, kangaroo, chicken, turkey most all meats. She can have duck preferably some pork and venison, but she likes the duck more than any other. Hard to find things she can have especially treats and things she can have. So glad to find the duck in small cans as she is only 7 lbs and big cans do not work for her.

Older dog likes
By Ron and his friends
from northern IL
My older collie-husky has allergies and am always looking for ways to add food to her diet I can trust which she also enjoys. She does like the rabbit of all the choices, I have added this to her regular diet a little more each week. She seems to have a little extra bounce in her step, especially at feeding time.

I bought this over 2 years ago in black and I wear it almost every single day. I'm always cold, even in the summer (weird right?), and this has become my go-to fleece for all occasions. Looks decent enough to wear in the office, and warm enough for fall/winter hikes. I wash this on the delicate setting on my washing machine and then air dry it. The only issue I've noticed is that the zippers on the hip pockets have worn holes into the mesh pocket lining. So that's not too cool, and hard to fix, but if you don't store stuff in the pockets much it's not a deal breaker.Overall, awesome fleece jacket!
I bought this fleece jacket for my sister who lives in Colorado. She wears it over a turtle neck for all her activities including walking the dogs and just generally being outside. Unless it is cold enough to require a winter coat, this jacket is great for whatever outdoor activities you do. The jacket looks to be more a little more fitted. It wasn't too loose or bulky if you are looking for extra room to layer thick items like a sweatshirt.
I would have never thought of buying one, only for the simple fact that these coats are expensive. When I saw a listing for this coat around $40.00 I thought why not. When I received it I was excited. I have had this coat for almost 2 years now and I absolutely LOVE IT!! Its lightweight but warm. I can just wear a hoodie underneath and I am just amazed on how warm it has kept me. I totally recommend anyone purchasing one!!
I bought two of these for my twin nieces. Even though they both have different styles and are built differently this present could not have been more perfect. One is 5'2 and the other is 5'4 and the large fit them both perfectly and they absolutely loved it.
I needed a new fleece jacket after my last one went south. I decided to get something made for life - The North Face. This baby is oh-so-toasty, perfect on cold days or cool days if you get cold easily (all right, I admit, I do). Pockets include zippers so you don't have to worry about random stuff falling out, and the neck is high to help keep out the wind. The only thing that drives me nuts are the snaps at the wrists for TNF gloves. I don't need them, so they kinda bug me.
One of the first things on my "to-buy-when-I-have-a-real-job-with-real-money" list was a fleece from The North Face. This was the fleece I chose (in white and gray) and I LOVE it! I am 5'1", 105 lbs and the XS fits perfect (that is without layering anything too thick under it). It is high quality and warmer than I expected. I wear it almost too much, and am finally getting around to buying another. (As an addition to the one I have, not a replacement. It still looks great!) I wouldn't buy it from anywhere other than Moosejaw, I love this company! The prices are wonderful, and the entertainment is worth it.

The risk for breast and ovarian cancer is increased with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS), a rare early-onset autosomal dominant disorder, associated with specific physical characteristics in addition to increased cancer risks. The features associated with PJS may include the following:
Peutz-Jeghers syndrome is caused by mutations in a gene on chromosome 19 known as STK11. Genetic testing is available clinically. Mutations in STK11 are identified in nearly all individuals with a positive family history and about 90 percent of individuals with no previous family history. Almost all people with PJS will be diagnosed with one or more of the associated cancers during their lifetime.
The STK11 gene is a tumor suppressor gene, which usually controls cell growth and cell death. Both copies of a tumor suppressor gene must be altered, or mutated, before a person will develop cancer. With PJS, the first mutation is inherited from either the mother or the father and is present from birth in all cells of the body. This is called a germline mutation. Whether a person who has a germline mutation will develop cancer and where the cancer(s) will develop depends on where (which cell type) the second mutation occurs. For example, if the second mutation is in the breast, then breast cancer may develop. If it is in the colon, then colon cancer may develop. The process of tumor development actually requires mutations in multiple growth control genes. Loss of both copies of STK11 is just the first step in the process. What causes these additional mutations is unknown. Possible causes include chemical, physical, or biological environmental exposures or chance errors in cell replication.
Some individuals who have inherited a germline STK11 mutation never develop cancer because they never get the second mutation necessary to knock out the function of the gene and to start the process of tumor formation. This can make the cancer appear to skip generations in a family, when, in reality, the mutation is present. People with a mutation, regardless of whether they develop cancer, have a 50/50 chance to pass the mutation on to each of their children.
It is also important to remember that the STK11 gene is not located on the sex chromosomes. Therefore, mutations can be inherited from the mother's side or the father's side of the family.

Verdi bicentennial premiere at the Hungarian State Opera next Monday: STIFFELIO for the first time in Budapest! The production will be staged as a concert performance, conducted by Domonkos Héja.
In the 19th century, the latest foreign works often reached Budapest in a matter of months, but it was almost certain they would arrive within a couple of years. Nevertheless, as this example shows, there are occasions when even 162 years are not enough for a successful Verdi opera to be staged in Hungary. This is exactly the fate that befell Stiffelio, so it is in this jubilee year that the amorous tragedy of the poor Lutheran minister, first seen in the Trieste Teatro Grande in 1850, will appear in the Budapest Opera. Translated from French, the drama was set in Austria, where it attracted much attention from the censors. Further, it raised the thorny issue of the sanctity of marriage – the minister offers divorce to his adulterous wife – a topic not popular among the predominantly Catholic community. Besides all this, the opera is also interesting because of its ambiguous tone: while the wife's father kills the lover, Stiffelio forgives Lina, and the story has a happy ending. Verdi composed the opera in a period of changing style and era: after the successes of the 1840s, he was preparing for his greatest popular operas: Rigoletto, La traviata and Il trovatore, which are also in the repertoire of the Opera House, were created only a couple of years after Stiffelio. Sprouting from the era of Nabucco and Macbeth, Stiffelio is a splendid work of art with deep portrayals of human characters.

Four and a half years after the savage hate crime, we still struggle to understand how those involved in the attack could act with such horrific violence. And at the same time we struggle to understand the climate of anger towards immigrants from which this savagery emerged, a rising tide of hatred that clearly helped buoy the attackers to action. The attack was clearly a particularly brutal eruption of a very big problem and in a very real way, the angry teenagers who killed Marcelo Lucero are rightly serving prison sentences for the act, but they didn't act alone.
Holding the guilty accountable while we account for the undeniable effects of the culture on them is a key theme of Susan Hagedorn's compelling new documentary film Deputized. (Full disclosure: the foundation started by Susan's late father has been a major funder to my employer, Long Island Wins).
Deputized – which you should go see the first chance you can, (a screening schedule is posted to www.deputizedmovie.com) — provides a much-needed reckoning, giving voice to countless perspectives on the attack (including the attackers and their families) while letting precisely no one off the hook for the attack and for the toxic culture that led to it.
What's clear from this movie is that this debate is as alive today in this time and place as it's ever been. The movie shows that the line between bullying and criminality, between provocation and action, is thinner than any of us would like to admit.
Nassau County hasn't faced the strife on this issue that Suffolk has. And with comprehensive immigration reform receiving its most respectful hearing in ages in Washington these days, it seems like we might have already passed our moment of "peak hatred," if you will, on immigration issues.
But the movie reminds us that the attacks took place at a moment of optimism as well – just days after the 2008 election of President Obama led many to believe that America had entered a new era of tolerance. The truth is that ugly facts present themselves even during hopeful times, and it's up to us to take notice.
As Long Island Wins' own Pat Young points out in the movie, one of the assailants said in his confession that the recurring recreational assaults on immigrants known as "beaner hopping" was a regular occurrence, even a banal one for the students in question. Specifically he said, "I don't go out doing this very often, maybe only once a week."
That so much violence was taking place with so little notice should shake our complacency about our new and supposedly better circumstances. See the movie. Join us in recognizing the depth of the challenges we face. And let's get to work.

My fave subject and one which has taken a while to absorb. There are many things to consider before shooting, 1st, where to position yourself. I've found that it pays to get as close as you can to the track so that the bikes FILL YOUR VIEWFINDER. No good being too far and then having to crop later, lost pixels don't make a sharp pic. 2nd, what do you want to show in your pic?, if you want bikes leaning almost to the floor then find a sharp bend where you can get close. Shoot as the rider is close enough to see his eyes for impact. 3rd, if you feel bold enough for side-on shots as the bikes fly past at well over 100mph, then find a straight part of the circuit. Here is where you will need to hone your skills at panning with the bike and shooting at the same time. Try many dummy runs without taking any pics, it will pay off. 4th, choose a shutter speed of at least 750sec or higher if you're panning and use predictive autofocus. You might have to choose a higher ISO like 500, or 800, it depends to some extent on the available light, if it's a sunny day then you're ok. Remember my golden rule which I've found works well for me; always make sure that your subject FILLS YOUR VIEWFINDER.
To be at the trackside as the bikes roar past is truly exhillerating, and the smell of Castrol R is sheer perfume to me as it drifts from the exhaust smoke. Many of my pics show even the heat waves from the exhaust pipes as the bikes fly past. Go on, enjoy it!!!.

Bank fights back - and wins!
Bank's first-round victory in wage-and-hour case carries lessons
- |
- Written by Marian Exall
- |
- Comments: DISQUS_COMMENTS
I have written about the growth in the number of wage-and-hour cases filed under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Indeed, federal court filings have tripled over the last decade, according to data collected by the law firm Seyfarth Shaw.
Most of the cases assert claims of unpaid overtime based on the allegation that the employer misclassified positions as exempt. In the last few years, financial institutions have been a particular target.
- A federal appeals court affirmed a finding that JP Morgan Chase had misclassified its loan underwriters as exempt, leading to a multi-million dollar settlement.
- Bank of America faced a claim for over $200 million in unpaid overtime for workers at more than 6,000 retail banks and call centers.
- A federal court certified two separate classes, totaling 1,342 employees, with a variety of job titles in a suit against Charter One Bank.
A complicating factor for employers is state law. Many states have their own wage and hour statutes. These often go beyond federal protections. Joining a state law claim, for example, about meal or rest breaks, to a claim for unpaid overtime under the FLSA provides state court jurisdiction, along with some procedural advantages for plaintiffs.
All in all, it is not surprising that most defendants choose to settle these claims.
But Citizens Financial stood its ground
Fighting FLSA
On April 19, after a three-week trial, a jury in federal district court in Pittsburgh returned a verdict in favor of RBS Citizens Financial Group.
The verdict came in a suit alleging that assistant branch managers were misclassified as exempt because they routinely performed customer service or other functions normally performed by non-exempt employees. The suit had 491 plaintiffs and sought damages in excess of $14 million.
Citizens Financial's persistence in defending this claim through to a jury verdict should be applauded. No doubt the legal fees were huge: nine lawyers from Proskauer Rose are listed as appearing for the defendant. There are other, less quantifiable costs, too. Suits like these often have a corrosive effect on employee morale, and certainly absorb executive time and energy over a lengthy period of time.
Don't break out the champagne yet. The plaintiffs' attorney, Brendan Donelon, has wage-and-hour suits pending against Citizens Financial and related companies in a number of state and federal courts in Illinois, New York, and Massachusetts, as well as another case in Pennsylvania. The verdict in favor of the bank in Pittsburgh does not determine the outcome in these other cases, and that verdict may yet be appealed.
Not coincidentally, Donelon was the lawyer representing the plaintiffs against Bank of America cited earlier.
What you can learn from Citizens Financial case
This case demonstrates that an employer can win a wage-and-hour case in front of a jury in the right circumstances. However, few banks will have the resources and determination to take that risk.
I advocate a preventive approach: Carefully review all positions where classification as exempt may be problematic.
- Job title is not determinative.
The fact that the position is labeled "manager" or "officer" does not mean the employee is exempt from overtime pay, unless the duties actually performed by the incumbent fit a specific exemption.
- Which exemption applies?
There is no "white collar exemption." This comes as a surprise to some bankers. The term "white collar exemption" has been used to cover three specific exemptions commonly claimed for bank positions: executive, administrative and professional. However, there are other exemptions that might also apply: outside sales, highly compensated, computer professional.
- What are the tests that must be met?
Each exemption has its own elements, each one of which must be complied with. For example, the executive exemption applies if the employee is paid at least $455 a week on a salary basis, and his/her primary duty is the management of a department or business unit, and involves the supervision of at least two fulltime employees.
What constitutes "salary basis," "department," and "supervision" is defined in detail by the regulations. Similarly elaborate tests exist for every exemption.
- Review the job description.
Does it describe the duties actually being performed? Do the duties described reflect the exemption being claimed?
- Review payroll records.
For those exempt positions that must be paid on a salary basis, have any improper deductions been made? This may get tricky for employees earning commissions.
- Know your state's law.
Are paid or unpaid breaks required? At what intervals? Is there a daily maximum number of regular hours for non-exempt workers, as well as the federal 40 per week?
Warning for community banks
The cases I've referred to involve large banks and significant numbers of plaintiffs. Don't think that because you are a community bank with only a few branches that you will escape the notice of the plaintiffs' bar, or the Department of Labor's Wage & Hour Division.
A little attention to this issue now may prevent expensive litigation down the road.

Bernard Guetta, Journalist and Columnist
Douglas Herbert speaks to Bernard Guetta, a prize-winning French journalist and columnist. When the Arab Spring erupted a little over a year ago, Guetta was surprised about the timing of the uprisings, but not the fact that they happened. That's because he made his journalistic name as a reporter for French newspaper Le Monde covering the rise of the Solidarity movement in Poland, and later, the fall of the Soviet Union.

AGA, headquartered on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., is the national trade association representing energy utilities that deliver natural gas.Our distribution member companies, located in all 50 states, deliver natural gas to 68 million customers throughout the US. Membership includes publicly traded energy utilities, municipally owned and privately held companies. North American natural gas distributors, pipelines, marketers and storage facilities comprise another major segment of our membership.
Our mission is to serve as the advocate on behalf of energy utilities that deliver natural gas, as well as to assist our member companies in their efforts to achieve operational excellence and sustained growth.
AGA is governed by a board of directors, consisting of senior executives of 45 member companies.
The direction for AGA activities is developed annually through a membership satisfaction survey, meetings of the AGA Board Strategic Planning Committee, and a member-driven review of AGA's advocacy priorities. Information from each of these processes is then combined annually into an AGA Business Operating Plan, which is approved by the board early in each year. AGA's performance is then measured based upon the Business Operating Plan, and officer compensation is predicated on performance on this plan.
Full members: U.S. natural gas distribution companies and their corporate parents.
Limited members: U.S. natural gas transmission companies, Canadian and Mexican natural gas distribution and transmission companies; and natural gas marketers, brokers and gatherers; and LNG companies.Associate members: Natural gas suppliers; consultants; professionals in the operating, financial, marketing and legal communities; and others who provide services to the natural gas industry.
International members and international affiliate members: Organizations outside of North America that are interested in international natural gas activities.

|© Estate of Helmut Newton
By Vibeke Knudsen
Rue Aubriot is one of the most enduring photographs I have had the privilege of being a part of.
It was the last shot in a series of photographs for the collections for French Vogue. Working with Helmut Newton was always "charged," as he was a god among fashion photographers.
The shoot took place at night. That was the only time that the collections were available for photography. We had breezed through the other shots and it was about 2 am when we pulled up in front of Helmut's studio to do this last shot in the street.
As I came out of the (small) mini van, where we changed outfits, and stood under a single streetlight, it very quickly became clear that the energy had shifted and heightened.
It wasn't just that the photographer was Helmut, the editor for the shoot was Francine Cressant, the hairdresser was Alexandre (lui meme), the makeup artist Jacques Clement, and that the suit being shot was a perfect example of YSL - at his best. It was, indeed, a collaboration of masters of their trade… and then there was a moment of magic thrown in. It seemed that we were all aware that something special was attached to the moment.
Helmut insisted on shooting with the streetlight only, which meant I had to stand completely still for two seconds - that's a long time in stilettoes on cobblestones!
At this point, the atmosphere was that of total focus. No one but Helmut spoke.
While he was shooting, Helmut asked us all to come back the following night. He was already planning his next shot. He wanted me to use the same pose with a nude model (Aya) standing next to me. I was asked to wear the same suit. Aya was not completely nude in this shot; she wore high heels and a hat with a veil. Helmut included both shots in his book, White Women.
Since then, the two photographs have often appeared side by side. They have remained relevant, modern and perfectly classic.
There have been many attempts to replicate this photo, many "inspirations" to "duplicate" this photo. I have been part of a few indirect homages and even when they were beautiful, they have always fallen short.
Such is the special vision, focus and quality of Helmut Newton. All hail to the king!
And as for "behind every great man, stands a great woman." Never was this more true than in the collaboration of Helmut and June. June Newton, aka Alice Springs, was Helmut's muse, inspiration and partner. June is a wonderful photographer in her own right and Helmut was her greatest fan. The woman behind Helmut was a part of his greatness.
I feel very fortunate to have worked as much as I did with Helmut Newton and very proud to be the model in Rue Aubriot. Thank you Helmut, thank you June.
Vibeke Knudsen was born in Denmark and has worked as a model in Europe and America for 40 years. In the 70's she often worked with Helmet Newton and considers herself fortunate to have collaborated with many of her profession's most gifted photographers. She now spends her time traveling. See this image and over 100 others at the Annenberg Space for Photography in Helmut Newton: White Women • Sleepless Nights • Big Nudes.

Rue Aubriot
Rue Aubriot is one of the most iconic photographs I have ever seen. When I saw the exhibit at the Annenberg Space it reminded me of the first time I saw it. Such an amazing photograph. Truly, one of the great photos of the 20th century. Once you see it, you can't forget it. Thanks for the wonderful story. A wonderful exhibit. Congrats and thanks to the Annenberg... it is a real jewel of California!

Incredible movie, awesome job!
Great video Cider!
..however I hate Proto Drakes. The scene you have them all walking around makes me think of a disease and plagued tower taken over by the evil that Malygos stated humans were. >.> Go figure I'd think of something in that fashion. But great editing and movie all together. I just found that part kinda ironic heh

Simply Epic. You out do even yourself on this one. The Proto Drake shots at the end gave me chills. Well done. Just so well done.
I should have made a comment earlier when I first watched and forced all my roommates to watch but then I probably wouldn't have thot back to how much the project helped me to know all of these fights like the back of the hand. Thanks for enabling me to be considered a good tank. =D
It goes without saying, but really incredible video that does a lot to show how much artistic quality is put into the raids that many of us take for granted.

What's the point in having an SSD only with Vista64+WoW ?
Why not having a separate partition on you main HDD ?
Just asking cause i'm thinking about buying a new system =)
SSD can do many more operations per sec, bandwidth/Throughput is variable depending on price you pay
Seek times are close to 1ms, scsi about 5ms, sata/ide 11-16
(it is like broadband with 50ms ping comparing to 250ms for scsi, or 600ms for sata/ide)
now divide 1 sec with those times with those times you will know how many read operations they can handle.

Onlyhuman: EU:Aszune
The SSD is not designed to write large amounts of data with the efficiency of a normal disk, which is also important to know. World of Warcraft does zero writing to the hard drive until you log out of the game, so as a program it gets the most benefit from being run on an SSD. Everything it does is stored in the RAM. I'd recommend against using most programs w/ this setup.
Another thing to note, per video performance: WoW does not benefit from multiple GPUs. The Nvidia GTX 285 is the most powerful WoW card on the market simply because it's the most powerful single GPU card. More expensive SLI or dual-chip setups aren't as good if you're focusing primarily on WoW.
I went off topic while I should focus on something else...
...wanted to thank you for thrills mate, impressive work done, glad we have the Tankspot

The video was pretty cool.
Thanks Ciderhelm and the rest of the guys at Tankspot who were involved with the project Marmot videos, they are a valuable resource for me (and once I get a job and have some cash rolling in, I'll sign up as a donor ) as I have been waiting for the rest of my guild to get geared up for Naxx - and didnt really want to go in without them even though I've been 10 man naxx entry ready since mid Januaury as a tank. I have watched the 1st 3 wings video's repeatedly in preperation for our guild's 1st foray into 10 man naxx on friday evening.
All your threats are belong to me
For all the raid videos where you give your time to helping strangers understand encounters and tactics.
For all the threads and the work that goes into keeping this site top of my list of places to visit to get information and tips that help me be a better tank.
For all the effort you put into creating one of the most amazing Warcraft movies I've ever seen.
All of you at project Marmot have my thanks, my respect, my admiration and my donation.
Thanks for all your efforts! Thanks for helping me be a better tank.
Sends a shiver down my spine, Incredible video!

Amazing video! What a treat to us tankspotters and a great tribute to what ppl can do when they work together for a goal.
On a side note... is there a Ciderhelm biography thread? lol Many of us i think are curious about the man behind the legend. I can only imagine the amount of time and energy all this takes. Controlling 1600 guild members, completing all raid achievments, running tankspot etc...u must never sleep :P
Thanks for the best site in the community!
how did you record the boss sounds you use throughout the cinematics?
I have been trying to do this but i cant work out how.
