This year Mario Williams signed a $100-million megadeal with the NFL's Buffalo Bills, so it makes sense that the star defensive end would go all out when it came to designing his home theater. The custom electronics (CE) pros at Audio Advice in Raleigh, N.C., had the luxury of incorporating the equipment into a partially finished space in the basement of Williams' 11,000-square-foot Raleigh home.
The drywall was already up in the room that would serve as the theater, but areas behind those walls were unfinished. These open spaces allowed Audio Advice to fish Transparent Audio HDMI cabling and other wiring to the high-grade equipment chosen to suit both the room design and Williams' entertainment tastes.
The DPI Titan was the ideal choice of projector for this 24-foot-long room, says Audio Advice's Randy Cribb, due to its ability to "throw" images long distances. To maintain the clean aesthetic of the room design, Audio Advice mounted the projector on the other side of the back wall, which meant images would need to travel even farther than 24 feet. That was no problem for the Titan 1080p-250, which is engineered to transmit images onto a screen as far away as 65 feet. And thanks to the incorporation of an anamorphic lens, the projector is able to reproduce images in a superwide CinemaScope format—which would fit perfectly on the 138-inch Stewart Filmscreen chosen for the space. The projector was placed on a 7-foot-high wooden platform built specifically for the project; images shine through specialty projection glass, which was fitted into a window in the back wall of the theater.
The Cine-W from Stewart Filmscreen curves slightly to wrap the audience in the movie. "It provides a more immersive viewing experience," says Cribb. Audio Advice recessed the screen into custom-built cabinetry, which also houses the center speakers and subwoofers of a JBL Synthesis system. Each speaker cavity was lined with foam so no matter how loudly Williams cranks the audio, the speakers sound natural. The remaining surround-sound speakers of this 7.2 setup were built into the side and rear walls.
Audio Advice finished off the theater with a Kaleidescape media server, which holds close to 500 Blu-ray discs; a high-def satellite receiver and a Crestron control system, which lets Williams fire up his theater from an iPad or from a TC-2 remote from Remote Technologies Inc. (RTI).

Today's My Turn
Yeah... after boiboi's Birthday yesterday, today's mine.
Hubby bought boiboi and myself a bunch of these longevity peach baos (buns). These buns do not contain any peach actually. They are steamed bun shaped to look like a peach (a symbol of longevity) and filled with lotus seed paste. These buns are then sprayed/coloured with pink colourings. Check out what ST of Cheat Eat had mentioned a folklore about this. Traditionally these buns are eaten on elder folks birthday celebrations where I remembered they were piled high on a tray on my Grandma's birthday.
This is the cross section of the bun... not much lotus paste filling and the buns don't really tasted that great but well just a gesture for both of us to have a long life. My hubby darn old fashion one ok. Errr no romantic din din tonite since hubby has got some discussion on, neither there is any pressie. I know cos I've no idea why hubby has been super busy this week. Not that it matters anyway since I get to have surprises every now and then.
So, Happy Birthday to me!
Thanks in advance for all your well wishes.

U.S. Energy Information Administration - EIA - Independent Statistics and Analysis
Last Updated: October 10, 2013 (Notes)
Revised: August 28, 2014 (revision)
Oman is the largest oil and natural gas producer in the Middle East that is not a member of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).
Located on the Arabian Peninsula, Oman's proximity to the Arabian Sea, Gulf of Oman, and Persian Gulf grant it access to some of the most important energy corridors in the world, enhancing Oman's position in the global supply chain. Oman plans to capitalize on this strategic location by constructing a world-class oil refining and storage complex near Duqm, which lies outside the Strait of Hormuz (an important oil transit chokepoint).
Like many countries in the region, Oman is highly dependent on its hydrocarbons sector. In 2012, Oman's hydrocarbons sector accounted for 86% of government revenues, according to the country's Ministry of Finance. Further, revenues from oil and natural gas accounted for approximately 40% of Oman's gross domestic product in 2012, according to IHS Global Insight. Oman's fiscal breakeven price for oil in 2013 is approximately $104 per barrel, according to a 2012 government announcement, meaning that Oman's government needs the export price of oil to remain at or above that level to secure sufficient revenues. For reference, in 2012 the price for Omani crude was $109 per barrel.
The continued viability of developing Oman's oil and natural gas resources relies heavily on extraction technologies. Several enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques are already used in Oman, including polymer, miscible, and steam-injection techniques. Due to the relatively high cost of production in the country, Oman's government offers incentives to international oil companies for exploration and development activities in the country's difficult-to-recover hydrocarbon plays.
A report published by the U.S. Geological Survey in 2012 stated that the estimated mean undiscovered energy resources in the South Oman Salt Basin—located in the southern part of the country—totaled more than 370 million barrels of oil, 315 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas, and over 40 million barrels of natural gas liquids (NGLs). With rising domestic consumption, a growing petrochemical sector—which relies on liquefied petroleum gases (LPG) and NGLs—and additional potential resources, the country is unlikely to significantly alter its dependence on hydrocarbons in the short term. For context, in 2011 oil accounted for 71% of Oman's total primary energy consumption, while natural gas made up the remaining 29%.

Sector organization
Oman's Ministry of Oil and Gas coordinates the state's role in the country's hydrocarbon sectors. Final approval on policy and investment, however, rests with the sultan of Oman. Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) holds the vast majority of Oman's oil reserves and is responsible for 70% of its production, according to the Middle East Economic Survey. In addition to the government's 60% ownership stake in PDO, Shell (34%), Total (4%), and Portugal's Partex (2%) all own stakes in PDO. The Oman Oil Company (OOC), which is responsible for energy investments both inside and outside of Oman, is fully government-owned. The Oman Oil Refineries and Petroleum Industries Company (ORPIC) controls the country's refining sector and owns both of Oman's operating refineries.
PDO has an even greater presence in the natural gas sector than in the oil sector, accounting for nearly all of Oman's natural gas supply along with smaller contributions from Occidental Petroleum and Thailand's PTTEP. The Oman Gas Company (OGC) directs the country's natural gas transmission and distribution systems. The OGC is a joint venture between the Omani Ministry of Oil and Gas (80%) and OOC (20%). Oman Liquefied Natural Gas (OLNG)—owned by a consortium including the government, Shell and Total—operates all liquefied natural gas (LNG) activities in Oman through its three liquefaction trains in Qalhat near Sur.
The government enlists foreign companies in new exploration and production projects, offering generous terms for developing fields that require the sophisticated technology and expertise of the private sector. Given the technical difficulties involved in oil production in Oman, the contract terms for international oil companies (IOCs) have become more favorable in Oman than elsewhere in the region, some allowing significant equity stakes in certain projects. Occidental Petroleum has the largest presence of any foreign firm and is the second largest oil-producer in Oman. Other major players with interests in Oman include Shell, Total, Partex, BP, CNPC, KoGas, and Repsol.
The Authority for Electricity Regulation, Oman regulates the country's electricity and associated water sectors. Its primary functions include implementing general policy from the State, licensing, compliance, and coordination between the various Ministries, organizations, and stakeholders in the sector. The Oman Power and Water Procurement Company is the planning body for power supplies in Oman, and the Oman Electricity Transmission Company is in charge of the country's electricity transmission networks.
Enhanced oil recovery techniques helped Oman's oil production rebound from a multi-year decline in the early 2000s.
According to the Oil & Gas Journal, Oman had 5.5 billion barrels of proved oil reserves as of January 2013. Oman's only export crude stream is the Oman blend, which is a medium-light and sour (high sulfur) crude. After declining for several years in the early 2000s, enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques, such as steam injection and miscible injection, have been the key driver of Oman's rebounding oil production since 2007.
Oman's 5.5 billion barrels of proved oil reserves rank 7th in the Middle East, and 21st in the world, and, similarly, the country's crude oil production ranks 7th in the Middle East and 22nd in the world. Oman is the largest oil producer in the Middle East that is not a member of OPEC. Oman aims to capitalize on its strategic location on the Arabian Peninsula by expanding its refining and storage sectors. Plans to develop a major bunkering and storage terminal are moving forward, and the facility's location outside the Strait of Hormuz could make it an attractive option for international crude shippers.
Exploration and production
Oman's total oil supply reached 924,000 barrels per day in 2012, and the government hopes to produce more than 940,000 barrels per day in 2013.
As of 2013, there are exploration and production activities in 28 of Oman's exploration blocks, according to the Ministry of Oil and Minerals. Oman anticipates awarding 2 onshore exploration blocks in late 2013, and plans to put another 7 blocks (4 onshore and 3 offshore) to tender in the near future. Nearly all of Oman's oil production comes from the Oman Basin, which spans most of the country. There are also a few small fields in the northern exclave on the Musandam Peninsula, all of them located offshore. In November 2012, the first offshore production in the country occurred in Block 8 off the coast of the Musandam Peninsula.
Oman's average annual crude oil production peaked in 2000 at 970,000 barrels per day (bbl/d), but dropped to just 710,000 bbl/d in 2007 due to declining production at the country's fields. Oman successfully arrested that decline, and annual crude oil production rose each of the next five years, hitting 919,000 bbl/d in 2012. Improved EOR techniques helped drive this turnaround, although the country also experienced some additional production gains as a result of recent discoveries. Oman's government aims to produce an average of 940,000 bbl/d in 2013, and to hold production at that level for the next five years, according to the country's Ministry of Oil and Gas.
Several recent developments could contribute to future oil production growth in Oman. Some of the notable new developments include Circle Oil's January 2013 announcement of Block 52 (offshore) with its 7 billion barrels of oil in place and Occidental Petroleum's March 2013 announcement that Block 53 could contain hundreds of millions of barrels of oil in place.
Enhanced oil recovery (EOR)
EOR techniques are critical to Oman's future production plans, and developments in those technologies are important to Oman's future production. Block 6, operated by PDO, is the center of current EOR operations, with the Marmal field (polymer), Harweel field (miscible), and Qarn Alam field (steam) using all three of the major EOR techniques within the same block. PDO and GlassPoint Solar completed the Middle East's first solar enhanced oil recovery (EOR) project in late 2012, and it was commissioned in May 2013. GlassPoint Solar has received funding from a number of companies, including Shell, which is a stakeholder in PDO.
Miscible gas injection involves pumping gas, often toxic, that dissolves in the oil, facilitating higher flow rates. Oman's operators at the Harweel oil field cluster use this technique in their operations, and, as a result of EOR, Harweel could produce an additional 40,000 bbl/d. Thermal EOR methods are being deployed at Mukhaizna, Marmul, Amal-East, Amal-West and Qarn Alam fields. Thermal EOR entails the injection of steam in various ways and durations so as to facilitate the flow of heavier oil to the well. Thermal EOR could increase production at both Amal-East and Amal-West to 23,000 bbl/d by 2018. Furthermore, the steam injection at Qarn Alam should increase production by 40,000 bbl/d by 2015 through a novel process in which the steam drains oil to lower producer wells.
At projects such as Marmul, with its heavy oil, injecting polymer fluid is more effective than other EOR techniques. When reservoirs contain heavier grades of crude, the viscosity of the oil restricts its flow to the well. With such a heavy grade of crude, water injection might not prove effective, as the disparity in viscosity causes the water to pass the oil, instead of pushing it to the well.
PDO wants to increase recovery rates at Yibal, a mainstay of Omani production, to 55% through traditional water-flooding. The discovery of al-Ghubar South in 2009 is the most promising discovery for Oman in years. According to the Ministry of Oil and Gas, al-Ghubar South could add as much as 1 billion barrels to reserves. Two significant discoveries were also made at Malaan West and Taliah in the Lekhwair cluster in northwest Oman, which will broaden baseline production in the future.
Other large EOR projects include:
- Karim Cluster - a cluster of 18 small oil fields all flowing to the Nimr production facility, which is operated by Medco (Indonesia). Currently producing 18,000 bbl/d, PDO is aiming to boost production to around 35,000 bbl/d in the short term.
- Harweel Cluster - PDO estimates a capacity of 100,000 bbl/d from the current 44,000 bbl/d in the next five years.
- Growth of up to 70,000-80,000 bbl/d from five clusters, such as the Rima Cluster, is expected through various efficiency gains and EOR applications.
Imports, exports, and consumption
Oman is an important oil exporter, particularly to Asian markets. In 2012, over 95% of the country's oil exports went to countries in Asia, with half going to China.
Oman is an important crude oil exporter, particularly to Asian markets. In 2012, Oman exported 278.2 million barrels of crude oil (762,000 bbl/d), of which approximately half went to China. Oman is not a major refined petroleum product exporter, although there are plans to expand the country's refining capabilities in the next few years.

Oman does not currently import any crude oil, but it does import small volumes of refined petroleum products for use in the domestic market. In the year between September 15, 2012 and September 14, 2013, Oman imported approximately 50,000 bbl/d of petroleum products, according to GTIS tanker data. Just under half of those imports originated in other Middle Eastern countries, while Europe and Asia accounted for most of the other half.
With the exception of 2009, Oman's petroleum consumption rose steadily between 2003 and 2012. Petroleum products consumed in Oman include distillate and residual fuel oil as well as motor gasoline. With transportation fuel consumption nearly doubling between 2006 and 2012, the country's refinery capacity is no longer able to meet the country's domestic demand for transportation fuels.
Oman has two operating refineries, Mina al Fahal and Sohar, with a combined nameplate capacity of 222,000 bbl/d. There are plans to upgrade the facility at Sohar by expanding the capacity to nearly 200,000 bbl/d as part of a $1.5 billion ORPIC-led project. Further, Oman aims to construct a refinery near Duqm with 230,000 bbl/d capacity as well as a 200-million-barrel crude oil storage terminal in the same area. The storage terminal would be one of the world's largest, and its location outside the Strait of Hormuz in particular would make it important.
Oman does not have any international oil pipelines, although there are plans to expand the country's domestic pipeline infrastructure. Plans include building a pipeline that connects the planned storage terminal at Duqm with the existing export infrastructure in the center of the country. Another proposal, if executed, would connect Oman's two operating refineries in an effort to reduce tanker traffic between the two coastal facilities. The project's later phases include plans to construct new storage facilities, with the goal of enabling Oman to hold up to 30 days of fuel reserves.

Natural gas
Oman currently exports LNG from two liquefaction facilities, although rising domestic demand for natural gas could limit the volumes available for export in the future.
Oman held 30 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of proved natural gas reserves as of January 2013, according to the Oil & Gas Journal. In 2011, the country was the 5th largest dry natural gas producer in the Middle East and the 26th largest producer worldwide. Oman uses a significant portion of its natural gas production in oil extraction, reinjecting 22% of its dry production in 2012, according to IHS Global Insight.
Oman's natural gas sector grew in importance over the past decade-plus, driven by the country's inauguration of two LNG facilities, in 2000 and 2005. Prior to 2000, when the Oman LNG facility opened, Oman produced small quantities of dry natural gas, averaging just 154 billion cubic feet (Bcf) between 1990 and 1999. With the continuing rise of Oman's natural gas demand (168% increase between 2002 and 2011), Oman plans to divert all of its LNG exports towards the domestic market by 2024.
Exploration and production
Oman's potential for natural gas production growth may be substantial, supported by promising developments in several new projects.
The opening of the Oman LNG facility in 2000 helped spur Oman's dry natural gas production, which grew by 66% between 2000 and 2011. Official government data indicate that Oman's gross natural gas production grew to more than 1.2 Tcf in 2012, an increase of nearly 9% from the 2011 total. Nearly 83% of the country's production in 2012 came from non-associated formations, according to government figures.
The greatest growth potential for Oman's natural gas production may lie in the Khazzan-Makarem field in BP's Block 61. The field is a tight gas formation, and BP suggests that there are between 15 and 20 Tcf of recoverable natural gas resources in the play, and up to 100 Tcf of natural gas in place. The development plan anticipates first volumes in 2017, with eventual production of 1 Bcf of natural gas per day and 20,000 bbl/d of condensates.
Oman also has a gas-to-liquids (GTL) program, whereby Oman LNG supplies more than 250,000 tons of natural gas liquids (NGL) per year for transformation into motor gasoline. Despite this effort, Oman still faces a shortage of transportation fuels because of insufficient domestic refining capacity.
Imports, exports, and consumption
Oman recently combined the Oman LNG and Qalhat LNG companies in an effort to streamline the country's LNG sector. The new company, also called Oman LNG, controls the country's 10.4 million tons (approximately 500 Bcf) per year export capacity.
Oman has just one international natural gas pipeline, the Dolphin pipeline, which runs from Qatar to Oman via the United Arab Emirates. Oman is not a major importer of natural gas, although the country does import approximately 71 Bcf per year from Qatar via the Dolphin pipeline. The imports via Dolphin are necessary to meet the rising level of domestic consumption inside Oman, which grew by nearly 390 Bcf between 2000 and 2011. That rising consumption prompted the Oman LNG company to announce that it would divert all of its currently-exported volumes of LNG away from foreign markets and toward domestic consumers by 2024.
Oman is a member of the Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF) and exports natural gas as LNG via its two liquefaction facilities near Sur, in the Gulf of Oman. Nearly all of Oman's exports go to Japan and South Korea, although in 2012 a small amount also went to China. Oman exported a total of 131 LNG cargoes in 2012, as well as 45 cargoes of NGLs, according to the Middle East Economic Survey.
The process to combine Oman LNG and Qalhat LNG companies into a single entity under the Oman LNG banner began in September 2013. This merger will give Oman LNG control of all three of the country's LNG trains, with a combined capacity of 10.4 million tons per year (approximately 500 Bcf). In 2012, Oman produced and exported approximately 395 Bcf, which is roughly 79% of the country's total capacity.
In August 2013, Oman signed a memorandum of understanding with Iran on a natural gas import contract. If realized, it would be a $60 billion, 25-year supply deal beginning in 2015, and will connect the two countries via a pipeline under the Gulf of Oman. Oman reportedly plans to use over 350 Bcf per year of the contracted volumes for domestic purposes and to process additional volumes of Iranian gas for export from its LNG terminals.
Oman's electricity sector relies heavily on the country's domestic natural gas resources. In 2013, natural gas accounted for more than 80% of the country's electricity generation.
Oman's electricity sector has two major networks, the Main Interconnected System (MIS) and the Salalah system. The larger of the two, the MIS, covers most of the northern area of Oman. The Salalah portion of Oman's grid covers areas in the south, while those areas outside of both networks get electricity from the Rural Areas Electricity Company, primarily through the use of diesel generators. According to IHS Global Insight, 97% of the country has access to electricity.
Oman's generating capacity more than doubled between 2000 and 2010, from 8.6 billion kilowatthours to approximately 18.6 billion kilowatthours. Electricity consumption over the same period grew at a similar rate, rising by roughly 8.6 billion kilowatthours. Oman produces electricity primarily from natural gas, although there is some diesel/distillate generation as well.
Oman is part of the Gulf Cooperation Council's grid interconnection system, which allows for electricity transfers between the six connected countries (Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman). Oman and the United Arab Emirates established their connection in October 2011.
Oman has a nascent renewable energy sector, with several projects making progress in 2013. In its 2012 Annual Report, Oman's Rural Areas Electricity Company detailed five renewable electricity projects, of which three are solar and two are wind. The combined capacity of the five projects is over 6 megawatts, but none of the proposed facilities are ready to begin operations. While Oman does not currently have a nuclear energy program, the country joined the International Atomic Energy Agency in 2009. Currently, there are no plans to construct any nuclear generating facilities.

REVIEW - Illamasqua 'Apocalips' Lipstick
In theory, since teal is the opposite to orange-red on the colour wheel, our eyes should accept it as an equally normal shade on the lips - according to Alex Box, anyway. An intriguing theory and I love where it's coming from but I'm afraid I don't accept it! Teal is going to stand out as something unique a mile away - which is why 'Apocalips' is special in the first place! Who decided red was a 'normal' shade for lips, anyway? Why should teal be any different? Stars on black and white films actually used to wear teal lipstick for shooting - apparently it showed up the best lip colour on screen!
Available online and from Selfridges stores at £15.50 for 4g of product.
(P.S) A little birdy told me that Illamasqua will also be releasing a NEON BRIGHT pink lipstick and another red soon - keep your eyes peeled!

You know, at least with respect to my eyes, Alex was totally right. I'm looking at these pictures of you and thinking "yep, totally need that! look, it's so wearable!" It might just be that your teal hair is helping, or my brain is completely fried and doesn't care about social norms anymore, haha.

Robert Schumann
Complete Piano Works, Volume IV

On the 200th anniversary of Robert Schumann's birth, an ambitious project is coming to a close: For the first time since Clara Schumann's Complete Edition of 1879–93, all of the works for piano solo are appearing as one editorial project. Spanning almost ten years of painstaking work, all of the Schumann titles published by G. Henle Publishers have undergone a careful revision. The Schumann expert Ernst Herttrich has closely examined each edition and also dedicated himself to those works that were previously missing from our catalogue. The result is being published in this new collection, comprising six volumes, which are available both in paperbound and clothbound editions, as well as study editions in a slipcase. They replace the former four volumes (HN 108–HN 115). Arranged clearly according to opus numbers, it includes not only all of Schumann's piano works, revised to reflect the latest scholarly findings, but also informative accompanying texts, alternative versions and much more besides.

Guide to the levels of difficulty
"I don't know what 'difficult' means. Either you can play or you can't" – this was the rather terse comment by the great violinist Nathan Milstein, on being asked about the unbelievable difficulty of Niccolo Paganini's Caprice no. 1.
The relativity of the evaluation of difficulty in music immediately becomes clear. Yet I gladly take up this great challenge, presented to me by G. Henle Publishers. For I am aware of how useful a guide like this can be, both from my own experience as well as that of many colleagues. In particular so as to be able to identify "appropriate" works. For example for music teachers, who teach at very different levels, from beginners to those preparing for music conservatories, but also for all those interested amateurs for whom this guide is intended.
After careful deliberation I have settled on nine levels of difficulty, which I have divided into three groups: 1–3 (easy), 4–6 (medium), 7–9 (difficult). A number of parameters have been considered when assessing the level of difficulty. I have not just looked at the number of fast or slow notes to be played, or the chord sequences; of central importance are also the complexity of the piece's composition, its rhythmic complexities, the difficulty of reading the text for the first time, and last but not least, how easy or difficult it is to understand its musical structure. I have defined "piece" as being the musical unit of a sonata, or a single piece in a cycle, which is why Bach's "Well-Tempered Clavier" Part I comprises a total of 48 levels of difficulty (each prelude and fugue is considered separately), Schumann's Sonata in f sharp minor op.11 only has a single number. My assessment is measured by the ability to prepare a piece for performance.
While assessing the pieces, it became clear that the medium level of difficulty (4–6) is the trickiest. Now and again this means that a piece is judged as a "3/4", even if it only deserved a "3" as far as piano technique is concerned. An example of such a "borderline" case (easy/medium) is Schumann's "Scenes from Childhood" op. 15 Von fremden Ländern und Menschen or at the other end "6/7" part of Bach's "English Suites". And of course within a main category there are also "from-to" evaluations (e.g. 7/8).
Any evaluation of art or music will always be subjective, even if the aim was to be objective. Despite the fact that I have endeavoured to be as careful as possible, I am all too aware that the results of my work can be called into question, and am therefore grateful for any suggestions you might have.

Before the massive assault on Fallujah during Operation Iraqi Freedom, starting in November of 2004, Howitzers fired many rounds at strategic targets to soften up the area, then fired during the invasion when soldiers needed support.

So slack of me
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-a...kbuffbars.aspx for EBB
For the SUF question, hiding anything blizz is done uner the 'Hide Blizzard' heading on the main menu right under auras.
As for a buff bar similar to SBF, i used to use Elkano's Buff Bars back in the day. Azcastbar and Quartz also have aura functionality that you may be able to configure to your liking.
I made my own UI, based of Aliena's took some of her files... For her cast bars does she use Quartz, or does she use The ones that came with Stuf? If so how can you get it like hers?
She uses Quartz and makes the castbar semi-transparent. But you can use the one that comes with STUF.
Hey, if anyone can help identify the addons present here id love to recreate this ui for myself.
i see grid, DBM, sexymap,

As a warrior, I'd like to know if there is an add-on for alerting the player when certain abilities are available. For example, I'd like to know when my main attacks (MS, CS, OP, etc.) proc or come off cooldown in kind of the same way Debuff Filter works. I noticed the Debuff Filter in one of Swifty's YouTube videos. If anyone has any recommendations for something of this sort please let me know. Thanks.
Power Auras, Weak Auras, filger (there are various edits) , and rFilter3 all have this capability.
Power Auras and Weak Auras can be configured in game. The other two require lua edit to adjust.
All of them can track buffs, debuffs, and procs.

Hi everyone, I was watching a video somewhere a while back and there was a feral druid who had some kind of add-on that made his combo points come up as paws, and when he had 5 combo points it turned into one big paw, anyone have any idea whatsoever as to what it might be?
i noticed in Lores videos his target frame on boss fights seems to be divided by small white lines that im assuming correspond with the different phases of the fight. can you tell me what does this?
In the videos of Paragon's live Firelands raid, Kruf has a nice way of tracking his DoT's/Buffs. (Can be seen here throughout the video, a perfect shot is at 7:55.)
I was wondering if anyone knew what he was using or how to do something similar?
It looks like it's from quartz.
Hello all, I know he has clcret in this video, but I was not sure about the box to the right of it which showed Zealotry, Avenging Wrath, Trinket, and Hammer of Wrath. Does anyone know if its part of that addon because I could not find it anywhere or if it was a separate addon. Thanks in advance.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1NBwBeuJK0 (Starting at around 1:10)
I am fairly sure that that is a part of clcRet that displays the next "major" cooldown button you should hit
Hi, do u know wat is the addon on the 27sec of this vid
The second skill from the right, the gold border and the flashing spell icon. I tired omnicc but it does not give me those option. Thanks:d
OmniCC only gives your buttons a timer, indicating when they're ready again.
On second 26/27 you can see a Lava Surge (elemental talent, tier 6) procc resetting shaman's lavaburst. The shiny gold border highlighting a procced spell is present in Blizzard's standard ui.

|Apache Struts 2 Documentation > Home > FAQs > Cookbook > Multiple Submit Buttons
Often, we have multiple submit buttons within a single form. The below is just a simple way of identifying which button was clicked, and which actions to take.
There are, of course, many ways of doing this, including the use of javascript to identify the actions, etc... You're welcome to pick and choose whichever method you find most useful. Webwork is flexible enough.
<button type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit"> <button type="submit" value="Clear" name="clear">
class MyAction extends ActionSupport { private boolean submit; private boolean clear; public void setSubmit(boolean submit) { this.submit = submit; } public void setClear(boolean clear) { this.clear = clear; } public String execute() { if (submit) { doSubmit(); return "submitResult"; } if (clear) { doClear(); return "clearResult"; } return super.execute(); } }
The boolean properties 'submit' and 'clear' will be set to 'true' or 'false' according weather the submit or clear form element is present in the submitted form.
In this case, the properties are boolean, therefore the values set would be boolean.
There is another method, using String properties, described below...
<button type="submit" value="Submit" name="buttonName"> <button type="submit" value="Clear" name="buttonName">
class MyAction extends ActionSupport { private String buttonName; public void setButtonName(String buttonName) { this.buttonName = buttonName; } public String execute() { if ("Submit".equals(buttonName)) { doSubmit(); return "submitResult"; } if ("Clear".equals(buttonName)) { doClear(); return "clearResult"; } return super.execute(); } }
In this case, the properties are String, therefore the values set are also String in nature.
I don't really like this method, as it ties in the Action to the Form. (What happens if you want different text to show up on the button ? You would have to change both the form as well as the corresponding action.)
There are other ways to achieve the same functionality. There are pros and cons to each methods. Feedback welcome.

Very comfortable shoe. I work in a medical lab and shoes meet all OSHA requirements. Had a pair before wore them for a very long time. If you work in medical my advice get these shoes. I see others have complained about shoe being to hot. Wear a thinner sock. Love these shoes
I bought these hoping that I would have an easier time going through the airport security and be able to travel with less hassle. The shoes accomplished that. The clogs look good and are very light weight. They have good traction on damp surfaces. However, when I bought them I did not realize that they would be made of an a material that does not breath. It is like putting a plastic bag over your feet. If I wear the clogs for 30 minutes or more my feet sweat and become very uncomfortable. My socks become very damp.

Blacksmith provides additional sockets on gear, plus I've found that all the gear you make can provide a decent roi from the mats you buy lvling.

The world's most popular tube amps just got better! Fender® Hot Rod series amplifiers are found on every stage in the world, large and small, and are used by guitarists from all walks of life. Hot Rod amps deliver unmistakable Fender tone and are the perfect platform for musicians to craft their own signature sound. These no-frills amps are affordable, reliable and loud, and they pair extremely well with stomp boxes. The Hot Rod DeVille 410 III is a 60-watt combo with a classic 4x10" speaker configuration borrowed from the legendary Super Reverb® and '59 Bassman® amps, the low-end headroom characteristic of 6L6 tubes, a versatile all-12AX7 tube preamp, an effects loop and more. It produces amazing clean and overdriven tones and luscious Fender spring reverb, and an 8-ohm extension speaker output even lets you add a cabinet for additional stage coverage. Additional Hot Rod DeVille 410 III upgrades include an easier-to-read black control panel with front-reading text, new badge, streamlined footswitch, and graduated volume and treble pot tapers.

I wrote my last review just after opening the box and I was very disappointed in the quality control of my amp. I put a set of active pickups in my Stratocaster and it sounds much quieter now. So now I can say this amp does have a great sound in all channels and that lush Fender reverb sounds great in spite of the cosmetic issues on my earlier post. So though I am correct I am also wrong. If there is an American version of this amp I do not know about it or I would have purchase that instead. I wanted the super reverb amp but after purchasing my American made sienna sunburst Stratocaster which is an amazing work of art I could not afford the super reverb. So please kinda disregard my prior post on this amp. Thanks!! Bob

I never thought I would ever own a Fender Amp, I have a Fender Precision Bass and a Fender Jazz Bass. But never an amp. After buying a Gibson Les Paul Traditional, I needed a Tube amp to keep up with it. My Marshall just didn't cut it. My cousin suggested a Fender Amp... I said really? So I went down to Long & McQuades and tried a few, the '65 Twin Reverb...The bandit and finally the Hot Rod Deville 410 III. It was just what I needed. A clean tube guitar amp with absolutely NO FRILLS! I have lots of effects and stompboxes but needed a versatile Clean Tube amp. Well, needless to say I immediately fell in love with this one. The tone, power, look, and sound were mesmerizing. My Les Paul sounds incredible plugged into the Hot Rod Deville 410 III. I recommend it to anyone who needs a powerful clean tube amp. I am now a believer. I don't regret this purchase and I would put it up against any clean tube amp on the market. Fantastic!!! I am converted an now own a Fender Amp... Thanks Fender... you changed my perception of your amps. Keep up the good work. Fender Rocks!!!

Hi. I just bought a 10 year old Deville 410 and I'm so satisfied. Especially because I got it cheap and not much used. The only objection I have is that in all specifications I have seen, including this homepage, it is claimed to weigh 23 kgs. The fact is that it weigh 29 kgs.
But since I love it so much I'll have to live with it.
Have a nice day.

In the mid to late 90s I saw a review of fender's new deluxe and deville amps in a guitar mag. I was immediately struck by how cool the name was. Those things are important right? Hot Rod DeVille! To the 18 year old me it sounded like the coolest amp ever. Flash forward to 2012, I've got less hair but more money so I was finally in the market for a decent amp. There was only really one choice.
The DeVille 410 looks great. A huge hunk of tolex and mesh. Straightforward, hot rod, chopped styling. But I won't go on about that. There are more important things.
The 410 sounds great. Clean sound is good. Plenty of cut with a nice solid middle. I play a tele and a 72 custom tele through it and they sound like they've made it home. The drive channel is where it comes alive. I've found that tracks I used to play clean, I'm now playing with a hint of drive, having the more drive channel means I can still kick it up a gear without resorting to effects.
3 micro moans now. I find the reverb a little full on, It's really quite spacey fairly low on the dial. Just a personal preference.
The amp is heavy. I hate it when I'm lugging it around but love it again as soon as it's plugged in.
It's loud. That sounds stupid, that's surely not a drawback. Maybe it isn't. I've never has my volume past 4 though and I'd love to hear it going full pelt.
Did I mention how good it looks? And that name!

small, pretty, nice ring. I thought she might like it, well, she loved it. thank you
the ring itself is actually very pretty, however the band is very skinny. and makes the ring look funny when its on your finger. its smaller than i expected as well. Its a nice ring if your looking for a petite ring.
I absolutely love this ring, it is smaller than the picture leads you to believe it is but it shines more than I thought it would! I couldn't be happier with this purchase.
My husband bought this ring for me and I absolutely love it!! Its petit, but has just the right amount of 'bling' :)
