AC/DC's "T.N.T." To Be Featured As Turner Network Television's Theme Song For Its 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Coverage24 May 2010
Turner Network Television (TNT) announced today that it has joined forces with Hall of Fame rockers AC/DC to feature the band's single "T.N.T" as the network's theme song for its 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series coverage. The song will serve as the primary musical bed for all six of TNT's races, which begin with the Gillette Fusion ProGlide 500 presented by Target on Sunday, June 6 in Pocono, Pa., as well as for the network's multi-platform marketing campaign surrounding its exclusive race coverage, which includes a presence on social media, print outlets, national television, local radio and print. The song has been re-released on the band's latest album, AC/DC: Iron Man 2 which features 15 of the band's classic songs.
The network's full-length NASCAR video featuring "T.N.T." will make its television debut on Tuesday, May 25 during TNT's exclusive coverage of Game #4 of the Western Conference Finals on the Emmy-award winning Inside the NBA post-game show.

Don't drop your autoblocker. When you finish making the vengeance card, wear that over madness.
Got my [item]Wrynn Dynasty Greaves[/item] tonight, and after gemming and armor kit, I found I had some more room to move with Defense than I thought.
I've got the [item]Darkmoon Card: Madness[/item] now, and I'm halfway to finishing the [item]Darkmoon Card: Vengeance[/item].
Looking for opinions on whether it's worth dropping my [item]Gnomeregan Auto-Blocker 600[/item] to equip it, or if not... which should I equip.
I've got the badge bracers, and neck for threat... how much of a threat hit will I take dropping the blocker, and will the card procs make up for it?
I'm most often MT... we're up to Prince in Kara.

Don't drop your autoblocker. When you finish making the vengeance card, wear that over madness.
keep all 3 on you at all times. there will be tons of situations where you aren't going for insane threat and/or most incoming damage is magic and/or unblockable.
...sorry....and/or my bad. :P
I wore the Gnomeregan Autoblocker 600 and the Darkmoon Card: Vengeance from when I first got them in Kara all the way through to Illidan. There isn't a better set of trinkets available, the only time you use other trinkets are for resist fights or for a passive uncrushable set.
I just got a Shadowmoon Insignia, which I wear over my DMC:V only because I have 17.4k unbuffed hp as it is; I really like the mini Last Stand effect, I mean I'm at a point where ~1200 more potential life is more valuable than passive 560 at all times.
This trinket isn't really available to everyone though, so for 95% of tanks I'd say the card and autoblocker is a great combo...which is good because there's very few alternative options.
I wear Moroes' watch for maybe one fight per raid week, where I just throw on max avoidance gear to make it easier on the healers (since I am past the EH breaking point anyway). All I ever wear is Vengeance, Autoblocker, and sometimes the Netherwing 45 stamina trinket.

Ratholorn, hows it going man?
This is Tamerlane, formerly of your guild on Khaz.
Saw you on here and had to register just to say hey. I remember many good runs through Slabs and Mech once upon a time.
How is the guild doing? By looks at your armory progression seems good.
I have moved to Italy and only play casually, but still like to look at forums at work
Yo Rath if you're having trouble with drops you should consider changing who seeds the instance; we had a mage seed BT for the first 15 Bloodboil kills we had; then we have a warrior seed (me) and a feral druid seed and both those weeks we get the insignia.
Edit: at least you have stoneform Ratholorn, that's not too bad. Although what I really like is the tauren hit box, I can't play as a gnome or human or anything, I need that reach now lol.

Scene 1 Part 01: Nocturne
Scene 1 Part 02: Dance of the servant cats and the young man
Scene 1 Part 03: Entrance of the female kittens
Scene 1 Part 04: Pursuit of the mouse
Scene 1 Part 05: Entrance of Agathe, the coquettish white kitten
Scene 1 Part 06: Entrance of the lady cats Battle
Scene 1 Part 07: Entrance of Madame, the leading female cat
Scene 1 Part 08: Entrance of Baron de Grotius, the alpha male
Scene 1 Part 09: General procession the marriage
Scene 1 Part 10: Nocturne
Scene 2 Part 1: Dance of the bill
Scene 2 Part 2: Agathe and the young man
Scene 2 Part 3: Agathe kills a caged bird
Scene 2 Part 4: Pas de deux to bed
Scene 2 Part 5: The Baron and his entourage summon Agathe
Scene 2 Part 6: The company dances on the rooftops
Here the action is set among a decadent society of cats, whose activities underground seem a mirror for the human life in the city above. The alpha male, called Baron de Grotius, intends to wed the frivolous and gorgeous white kitten, Agathe; but she falls in love with a human violinist who has lost himself in the cellars. Through the love of a human, she becomes human herself, and they flee the wedding celebrations and make their home above ground in a poor garret, where they have difficulty paying the rent. Agathe finds herself falling back into her feline nature – she kills a caged bird, and when the Baron traces her she leaves her sleeping lover and follows the other cats. The violinist tries to chase them over the rooftops but falls to his death; Agathe returns, finds his body and curls up beneath it 'in animal devotion and human love'.
This is certainly a more varied ballet than Le roi nu, with episodes of romance and pathos, while the humorous numbers have a delicacy and stylishness appropriate to their feline subject (not to mention the frequent occurrences of 'miaow'-type glissandi in the strings). The melancholic nocturne that opens the ballet, with its evocative horn solo, is one of the most memorable pages in Françaix's output, and this music returns as an interlude two-thirds of the way through the score. Other highlights include the rapid, gossamer-light flute solo in 'Parsuite de la souris', so evocative of the breathless flight of the mouse hunted by the cats; the exquisitely soulful oboe solo that characterizes Agathe's entrance; and the pomposity of the Baron, in whose music we may recognize several brief quotations from other composers, such as the Rakóczy March. The final Pas de deux, as the cat lovers prepare for their nocturnal nuptials, and the elegiac final bars, radiate a quality of tenderness that many human protagonists might envy.

A word mainly used in the Persian language or by Persian people, that has become wide spread internationally. It is used when referring to fobs (fresh off the boat) or people of lower classes, wearing outfits such as bathroom sandals with shorts and dressy shirts buttoned down revealing their gross hairy chests. They usually have a bad odour and in an attempt to be "cool" use excessive amounts of hair gel. These are usually men ofcourse, between the age range of 35-45.

Nov 21, 2011Absolutely loved it! This movie is all about sheer light hearted entertainment . Anybody who takes this seriously should really get their heads examined!! I'm talking about all those people who can not just go to the movies for a bit of fun!! Lighten up people! It is not supposed to be all serious. I like how this movie did not try to be anything other than what is is. Fun.
Nov 21, 2011This movie really is for the fans of the books. I hate the way others try to spoil it for them by constantly putting it down. If it is not your cup of tea...fine...but why all the hate? Get over it! I'm glad the fans love it so much as it is portrayed exactly as the books described. Well done to them for being true.
Nov 25, 2011Enjoyed this movie a lot. It delivered on screen exactly how it is described in the books. You can not ask anymore of a director or actor so I say a job very well done.
Nov 21, 2011I think this movie was way better than than the previous movies in the series. People need to give some credit where it is due and it is definitely due here!
Nov 21, 2011Really enjoyed it! It was cheesy and melodramatic and humorous! Exactly what I was hoping for!! Loved every moment of it! Completely delivered the book.
Nov 26, 2011I can not fault this movie at all! It delivers what it says on the tin and I think you can not ask for more than that. Very well done by the director and the cast.
Nov 18, 2011Another disappointing sequel, from start to finish, clearly aimed at young teen aged girls, who love the cast members more than the actual movie. The special effects left a lot to be desired, the film concentrates too much on teenage love drama, and forgets to add relevant action sequences to at least keep the non fans audience entertained. This film is aimed straight at the core fan base, its a cash cow with little investment and effort.… Expand
Nov 26, 2011Well I completely enjoyed this movie and at the end of the day that is what it is all about!! These movies make a lot of people very happy and that is always nice to see!
Nov 18, 2011Dear Stephanie Meyer, You Ripped off Buffy the vampire slayer and Southern Vampire Mysteries and have been far too successful with it. This films pacing is off, acting is wooden and there is no humour except for the terribly written dialogue and ugly unconvincing CGI. Bella is barely a character and more of cardboard cut out, who really isn't a very good example to young women. This girl is badly harmed after having sex with her husband, but its ok cause he didn't mean to do it. That's very reminiscent of what a lot of women in physically abusive relationships say. It may be fantasy, but teenagers and younger are heavily influenced by what they read and watch so I'm gonna ask Stephanie Meyer.... Can you either stop writing books OR have Buffy (you already stole the characters romance why not the whole character) and have an empowering woman that teens can look up to and not feel repressed by her male counter parts. Thanks
Jay Johnson… Expand
Nov 26, 2011The acting has vastly improved in this movie and it makes a massive difference. I really felt the emotions coming through with a mix of light moments and serious moments for the characters.
Nov 21, 2011I am a huge fan so of course I thoroughly enjoyed it. There is plenty of serious stuff happening in the Worls, it is nice to simply escape from time to time and that is what this is all about.
Nov 25, 2011Absolutely LOVED it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am very happy with the way everything was put together from the book and I am very much looking forward to part 2.
Nov 26, 2011Thank you so much Bill Condon, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and all the cast and crew for finally giving the fans exactly want we want and not giving a damn about the haters of the series!
Nov 26, 2011Very nicely done indeed!!!!!!!!Thinking back at some of the imagery in the scenes and the charming delivery of the unusual story line. I really liked it!
Nov 22, 2011I've always enjoyed the Twilight movies. Not because they're good, but because they're absolutely horrendous. The script is bad, the plot is bad, the acting is bad, the directing and editing is bad, and all the guys can't go five minutes without taking their shirts off. All that combines to make something that is absolutely hilarious to watch. My friend and I once talked about having a drinking game, where we would watch Twilight and take a drink whenever there was a facepalm moment on screen. We eventually decided against it because we would have gotten drunk within the first ten minutes.
So I went into Breaking Dawn expecting more of the same, and I got it. Dialogue so incredibly bad and cheesy you could spread it on a biscuit and eat it. Acting so flat and wooden you could make an IKEA chair with it, or several. There were so many facepalm moments that I think my forehead was red when I walked out. Directing is slightly better this time though, that's some good at least.
I did enjoy this movie, but please don't mistake it for me saying that this is a good movie, it's not. I enjoyed it because it's terrible. If you're a fan, go ahead and watch it (though you probably already have). If you're like me, think about watching it if you have the time (and money). If you're not a fan, this movie won't change your mind about the series. Avoid it.… Expand
Nov 26, 2011I love the books so I was was wary of seeing the movie but I had no need to be worried at all. I am very happy with the scene selection and delivery. Thank you Bill.
Nov 21, 2011Love, Love, Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally a director who gave us fans what we wanted and said to hell with everybody else! The haters are never going to like it anyway so might as well go all out and give the fans what they want! Thank you Bill Condon!
Nov 26, 2011Loved it so much! Really looking forward to part 2 of Breaking Dawn. I think it was very nicely set up and ended in the perfect place. It all changes in the next installment.
Nov 21, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I loved everything about it. The wedding was beautiful. The honeymoon was tasteful and charming. The birth was appropriately graphic. All and all a job well done.… Expand
Nov 21, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Fantastic movie. The transformation scene was really spectacular. I really felt the emotion when Edward was trying to save Bella and I loved the montage of memories while she literally transformed before our eyes.… Expand
Nov 25, 2011Just saw this and I have to say I do not know what people are giving out about?? They must be a miserable bunch because I found the movie to be completely charming in an old fashioned way and completely enjoyed it! I think some people who can not stand it just need to lighten up a bit!!
Nov 26, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. How stunning was Kristen Stewart in that wedding dress!!!!!! It was simply gorgeous!! Loved the whole wedding scene. Beautiful! It was exactly how I imaged it!… Expand
Nov 30, 2011Well I am most certainly not a Twi-hard but I really enjoyed this film. It was so much better than I expected and so much better than the critics say.
Nov 30, 2011I found it utterly charming!!!! It takes you on a complete fantasy journey and allows you to escape the mundane problems of the World for a little while!
Nov 25, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What a gorgeous wedding!! Edward and Bella look beautiful and I absolutely loved the wedding dress, sophisticated and sexy at the same time!!! Thought the speeches were hilarious too!… Expand
Nov 25, 2011I enjoy all the Twilight movies but Breaking Dawn part 1 is by far my favorite! I think it was was wonderfully done and I appreciate that Bill Condon gave us what we wanted!
Nov 26, 2011It was great! Do not know why it gets so harshly judged. People just need to let go and go along for the ride. You might even enjoy it if you let yourself!!
Nov 30, 2011I can not for one second understand all the hate these movies get from a lot of critics and some members of the public........they really are not that bad at all!
Nov 21, 2011My favorite movie of the series. Really looking forward to seeing Breaking Dawn part 2! It really left me wanting more but it will be whole year until its out!
Nov 21, 2011This movie actually surprised me. I thought it was miles better than the other movies in the series and the actors played those characters exactly right.
Nov 25, 2011Very nice, easy going movie for sheer entertainment I give this a 10 out of 10. There really was nothing to complain about in this movie although I'm sure many people will find something to complain about...they always do!
Nov 25, 2011This is precisely the type of film I like. Romantic, dramatic, unique. I have definitely never seen anything remotely the same as it and I like that it is different! So sick of movies being safe.
Nov 26, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am a Twi-hard and proud so I absolutely loved it! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!… Expand
Nov 26, 2011Love the cast. Loved the acting. Loved the humor. Loved the scenery. Loved the delivery of the big scenes. There was so much to love about this movie. It deserves a lot more love back in my opinion.
Nov 30, 2011I adored this movie. It has moments that are so cute and sweet but then there are moments of seriousness that are dealt with really well and interestingly.
Nov 25, 2011The best Twilight movie. Did not deserve the harsh reviews at all. I suppose the people who do not get it just do not get it but they could at least have a bit of respect.
Nov 26, 2011I had a really good time at this movie so as far as I'm concerned it gets a 10. Surely going to the movies is all about fun and escapism?? This movie definitely gives you that.
Nov 30, 2011I'm a huge fan of the series . I love it for what it is and am under no illusions but I simply enjoy watching them! No harm in that...............................................................
Nov 21, 2011I was very happy with Bill Condons take on the book. It was far better than the book actually because it cut out a lot of the annoying bits. Sheer entertainment. Loved it!
Nov 21, 2011Very pleasantly surprised. I really enjoyed it. Do not know what people are being so harsh for. The movie delivered the book really well. I just do not know what you people were expecting.
Nov 25, 2011I thought after reading some reviews that I would hate this movie and jump on the hate bandwagon but I was very surprised at how much I liked it! I suppose it is a case of bias critics again. I have seen that happen many times and it is something the really annoys me.
Nov 25, 2011What a beautiful looking cast! Really had a good time with my friends at this movie. Fun and enjoyment is what going to the cinema is all about! Loved it.
Nov 26, 2011Oh I just loved it. The cheesiness and over the top dramatics is what makes this series so darn great! This is completely the type of movie that I love!
Nov 30, 2011Went to see this with three of my best friends are we had a great time! That is what it is all about FUN! I dont know why some people take it so seriously!
Nov 18, 2011Wow, a movie that makes "Jack and Jill" look like high art. Boyfriends everywhere beware, it is better to dump your girlfriend than to let he make you watch this. Certainly the least "vampire like" vampire movie I have ever seen. May as well be a two hour spot for teen bride magazine.
Nov 26, 2011Was a bit apprehensive about this movie as I did not like the others much in the series but I have to say I was totally pleasantly surprised. Good movie.
Nov 26, 2011Was so excited to go see this movie. Have been waiting for a long time but it was worth it! Really can not wait to see part 2 of Breaking Dawn next year.
Nov 30, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There are many scenes in this movie that really should be commended though I doubt they ever will be unfortunately! For example.The scene of her "dream" wedding was very interesting and very effective. The birth scene also was very different and emotional.… Expand
Nov 25, 2011Very good! I was very excited about seeing this but I was unsure about how it was going to play out. I was very happy with the result. It had a great mixture of the emotional scenes along with some funny scenes too.
Dec 17, 2011With an extremely promising beginning for the first time and a huge improvement on performances and just beautiful cinematography keep Breaking Dawn Part 1 from completely being one of the most awful films of the year, filled with an awful performance from Taylor Lautner and just terribly unintentional funny moments make this the worst addition to the Twilight Saga yet. I give this 20% of a good movie.… Expand
Nov 26, 2011I was very surprised at how much I enjoyed this film especially after reading some reviewers comments. It just goes to show, never listen to anybody else and just be open to a new experience.
Nov 30, 2011I have to say it was actually really good. Thought I would hate it but I did not hate it at all. Also Kristen Stewart looks really hot, for the first half anyway!
Nov 21, 2011Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were perfect in this movie. Exactly as they were written in the books and they have amazing chemistry. Taylor was really good as Jacob in this one too as I usually can not stand him. Thought the cast did a great job.
Nov 21, 2011My favorite movie I have seen in a while. Finally a movie aimed at a female market! So sick of all these comic book heroes and robots! Love a bit of old fashioned melodrama and romance.
Nov 25, 2011Most enjoyable movie I have seen in ages! I'm proud to call myself a fan of the series in general but this movie really took things to an even better level.
Nov 27, 2011I think they did a fantastic job of bringing the story from the book to life. Obviously if you hate the book you are probably going to hate the movie and if you love the book you will love the movie. Simple.
Nov 30, 2011I loved it! It was better than the book in my opinion because it highlighted the important parts and left out a lot of the other stuff. Looking forward to part 2.
Dec 10, 2011This installment revolves around Bella and Edward's wedding, honeymoon and the troubled birth of their baby. The only supernatural action involves the angry transformations of the werewolf clan. Otherwise, it's the soap opera aspects of personal drama and concern. Director Bill Condon (best known for "Dreamgirls" and "Gods & Monsters") has brought his skill with performance and relationships to keep the interactions interesting. There's nothing brilliant here, but a continuation of the compelling story that's popular with so many. NOTE: Stay through the title credits at the end for a plot development.… Expand
Dec 2, 2011The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 will wast you valuable 117 min from your life ! This is not a movie,its just a pain .Everything in this movie sucks . I mean seriously ? really ? Bill Condon congrats you have become top of my worst director ever . As for the actors , Please take acting lessons (specialty Rob , Kristy and T Lau) if they want i will pay but please don't stand in front of a camera until that . They only thing i like was the two soundtrack from the first part and others sucks !
I actually liked the first part but now i regret it !
P.S. : say hello to Golden Raspberry coz TTS:BD P1 will wil every single Award there !… Expand
Nov 18, 2011The movie Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn- Part 1...was AWESOME!!!! It was GREAT from beginning till end!!!! I and both my girls will pay to see this Again!!!
Nov 21, 2011Really enjoyed it this movie. Had a good time with my friends. Enjoyed the blend of drama and romance with a nice few comedic moments too. Very enjoyable film.
Nov 25, 2011Very happy with this movie. All my favorite parts of the book were included and very nicely done indeed. I will definitely have to go see it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nov 26, 2011It was a good movie it stays true to the books ( so I'm told ). It gets a little weird in a couple areas for me. Number 1 the love making scenes were a little much for PG 13 I thought. Then when all the wolfs were talking to each other a was like what the heck is going on here. I felt embarrassed I was like looking around to see if anyone else felt the same. Also there is small scene after the credits so don't leave right away like I did :)… Expand
Nov 27, 2011Finally got to see this movie and I have to say I really enjoyed it!! Very easy watching and very nicely done in my opinion. Will very probably buy the DVD.
Nov 30, 2011The performances by the actors have really improved in this one. Surely everyone can see that. The director did a very good job of pulling everything together and making the fans happy.
Nov 18, 2011Once again I was pleased to see the movie go more from the book than have fill-ins like other movies that are based on a Best Selling novel. If you read the book then you would understand every scene & especially the honeymoon scene. She is still human, vulnerable & very fragile compared to the super-strength of her now husband-he is vampire! It's a MOVIE for heaven's sake not a take off or example of spousal abuse. Mind you I agree there are women in abusive relationships from husbands that do not TRUE-LY love them (or wouldn't hurt them to begin with) and I hope they will turn to abuse alternative for help...but in this case- not the same. They are so head-over-hills in love & it is so obvious- he is devastated to see that he left a mark at all on her. Her unswaying love to her now husband, Edward, & his back to her, is every girls (woman's) dream come true. He is more concerned for Bella's happiness, he would do anything not to hurt her or let anyone else for that matter. I did think that Jacob's crying scene after seeing Bella (what they thought) dead should have been with more feeling. Wish it was 30 mins longer to give Twifans more. But over all, I was very pleased with the entire movie, directing & actors. I just hope part 2 is just a bit longer (3 hours wouldn't even be long enough!) to give more details with the story line, knowing it is the closing chapters to such a great Saga!! True Twifans should swoon over Breaking Dawn Part 1… Expand
Nov 28, 2011I take it these are all big teenage twilight fans wrting reviews because their all 10's and thats stupid. These movies are a joke. This is supposed to be modern day cinema? My god. These movies are terrible, ill admit Robert Pattinson can act but definitely notin these movies, Kristen Stewart is just ok, but seriously? Why is Taylor Lautner an actor? Hes garbage, oh yeah thats right cuz of the steroids hes on. I wish my gf did not want to see this because it was so bad, i even fell asleep on multiple occasions. The movie just drags and drags and you hope for something to happen but nope, juet another boring scene after another. Whatever happened to vampires not being gay and glittery? Absolute garbage, hated it with a passion… Expand

Nov 21, 2011I was very impressed with the way they manged to hold on to the whole craziness of the story. It is definitely not to everyones taste but it is definitely to mine.
Nov 25, 2011Fantastic film when you are looking for a nice night out without taking anything too seriously. People seem to forget that nothing about this series is to be taken seriously it is simply for entertainment and fun.
Nov 27, 2011Totally and utterly Loved it. All the major scenes were done so carefully and beautifully to ensure that they were exactly what the book described to make the fans happy.
Nov 30, 2011............................................................No complaints. I enjoyed .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Nov 20, 2011Breaking Dawn, Part I has negative moments that gives nothing for the series, it takes us way too serious to understand. The wooden characters are rehashing the same dialogue since the last three movies. I still can't believe that these two couples are doing over and over again and we were sick the entire premise that gives us more hint that we feel we want something new. This movie fails for pushing the boundary of PG-13 to R Rated flick. There's a sex scene were Edward and Bella are making out that there's no PG-13 to put it like this. The story is so dumb, too goofable, and too horrendous at the same time. It still couldn't get better that we seen these movies in hundred times before. This movie is dumb and stupid, but it's for only tween girls only to enjoy until Part II. And for us, we must ignore it until it finished, but don't worry people, it will done soon.… Expand
Nov 20, 2011I went into it, not seeing any of the previous ones, and not knowing what to expect. My girlfriend wanted to see it, so I said whatever and went. I knew it wasn't going to be good, but like, really... This was possibly, the worst movie, I have seen, in, my, life. Just...don't.
Nov 20, 2011Another great sequel from a great novel! The acting from Mr. Pattinson outshines the other talented cast, with hilarious speeches! The successor of part 1. should unravel more of this epic series.
Nov 18, 2011Female porn in a PG-13 format, plain and simple. The women who can't get enough of these movies must lead sad, lonely lives. Why watch this garbage? The characters are dull. The story is laughable. The dialogue is flat and predictable. I'll never understand the attraction to this crap.
Nov 19, 2011Very bored, is a picture only for fans and made for fans, the directors dont offers nothing new and the actors are for crying. The history is horrible i dont understand why is so popular. Under your own risk to see
Nov 21, 2011The saga is alright, I enjoy the story...this piece though was very boring...drawn out. It could have been condensed to about 15 minutes. Too many 'i said something funny' moments for me.
Nov 19, 2011As with all the other films in the series nothing really happens except for a bare few minutes of plot development and even those moments are handled in a dull and boring way. The actors appear to be getting bored of the franchise or at least that's how their acting seems to portray it as with Kristen Stewart somehow playing her emotionless shell of a character Bella with even fewer facial expressions than normal. Robert Patterson as Edward is at least trying but it doesn't work and Tayler Lautner whom is normally a reasonably good actor puts on a terrible performance. The writing is stale and uncreative, the music is a mixture of a cheesy pop song music videos and the odd nice orchestral score and the directing is awful. Special effects are laughably bad as well but the worst thing is that people seem to like it. This film is an insult to the film industry and is not only the worst film of 2011, the worst film of the past five years but also one of the worst films of all time. Terrible. And the only reason it's in two parts is because Harry Potter did it!… Expand
Nov 21, 2011The main reason I watch these movies is for Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewarts chemistry and I have to say they were particularly in sync in this movie. Love them together on screen.
Nov 21, 2011Absolutely disgusting movie! Don't waste your money and time for it.
I think is the front-runner for Razzie Awards next year...

Nov 21, 2011It seems like every time I ask someone what they thought of this movie I either get a really positive or really negative review. I am going to be 100% honest when I say I am a die hard twilight fan. I love the characters and the story. I must say that I was expecting something a lot different from what I saw at the midnight release. The main parts I remember in the movie are wedding, honey moon, and birth. I will tell you one thing, they certainly did push an R rating for this movie. It some parts towards the end it is simply disturbing and I was left with disgusting images of a very sick Bella. I felt a lot of emotions during this movie. I liked the intense scenes and I like how Bella had seemed to found her voice. This is by no means my favorite movie though. I think the previous movie, Eclipse, was a lot better written and produced. This movie is better then the first installment, Twilight, but not by much. I am very disappointed with that I saw. I hope that the next movie is more light hearted and uplifting then this one because I would had for the series to end like this one did. The ending was drawn out and obviously easy to guess. A 5/10 is my best rating.… Collapse
Nov 25, 2011I had been waiting for this movie for ages so I was nervous about how I would feel when I went to see it. It did not disappoint me at all! In fact I loved every bit of it...was well worth the wait!
Nov 27, 2011Absolutely amazing! It was far better than I was expecting! I thought it might be okay like the others in the series but this one was actually very good!
Nov 30, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I did not have a major problem with anything. The only moment of doubt was the wolves talking but it was not a big deal and it was written in the book so had to be shown. Overall I really liked it.… Expand
Nov 22, 2011What GARBAGE! I saw this movie for free, just to join a friend, but I really felt like walking out to get the money back. Like all other films before it, this movie only caters to the horny little tramps that are in love with these horrific so called "Actors" that portray the roles of vamps and wolfs. Once again, complete garbage from start to finish. Unless you're a lonely house wife or an Elementary school student, or a very lonely Middle school/High School girl, then everyone else will be rating this a perfect 10... but to all others that know better... a -0.… Expand
Dec 3, 2011Surprisingly good. I like it, sweet. I don't get any serious problem with it. Reminds me to the first movie, and I though casts "increase" their performance.
Dec 2, 2011Twilight: Breaking Dawn is the best movie in the series so far. Kristen and Robert's relationship actually feels real, and the acting is better than any of the other movies. The CGI is great for small touches, and the wolves look great. The music works sometimes, but other times contradicts the mood. Overall, it's a great movie, and I recommend it.
Nov 23, 2011Worst movie ever!
its so cheesy and soul less! Worst movie ever!

Nov 25, 2011I have only one thing to say about the twilight saga it has started to stink and the most wonder full thing is that breaking dawn sucks like any thing. The story is a boredom and stupid and the star cast also looks stupid while they act in their idiotic character in a stupid film. My advice is don't ever watch this movie it will eat your brain because its a mindless movie. From me this movie deserves a big stupid zero.… Expand
Nov 21, 2011i can not believe people can watch this... I think this movie is for the "fans" of the twilight only iam sorry but iam not a person to give this low score but this is just bad.
Nov 28, 2011Don't waste your time with this. Sex Scenes and Blood. That is what this movie is. Twiilight has RIPPED OFF Harry Potter with the 2 part final movie crap.
Nov 27, 2011Sorry I meant to give it a 0.
Alucard (Dracula's son) could kick Edwards a*s.
Nov 26, 2011Terrible acting, terrible especial effects, terrible screenplay, i can understand when a girl says that she likes this movie because of the actors but i cant really undersand when someone says that this a beautiful love story, is full of cliches, boring, breaks completely the mithology of the vampires and of course it has unnecessary drama, the lower score that i usually give to a movie is 1 out of 10, but this movie is simply NOTHING,NOTHING in this movie is good NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTHING!… Expand
Nov 26, 2011My expectations were higher. But again: what can you expect from Twilight ? The storyline was boring, no real tension; only to busy the minds of teenage girls with pregnancy and "oh.. Edward". There was no real addition to the love triangle. I gave it a three because of the excellent soundtrack. That's the only good thing it had. What a waste of time to watch it. Don't. Just read the books. That's enough.… Expand
Nov 22, 2011Absolutely hated it and i didnt even get what was going on i was so distracted by the dumbness of it all.it wasnt even fun to watch and laugh at as a bad movie...It was just that miserable.Bad acting,special effects,storytelling,but it is still probably the best of them all,which isnt saying much.
Nov 20, 2011lol, theres nothing to say but laugh in the face of every single person involved in this movie and tell them that they have just wasted so much time of there life. Not only is this the worst of em all, it is the most emo styled one yet. I'll admit I did not sit through the whole movie, just had to walk out. The movie is just crap, the story is told in a weak way, the acting is better in this Twilight, but it is still horrible acting on the part of the Younger stars( Kirsten, Robbert, Taylor). The story just dives deeper and deeper into a Emo Soap Opera style movie. Without one smile throughout the movie, I felt like the movie was making me more miserable the more I sat next to the Twilight loosers with no life hoping to meet the stars one day. The CGI is better in the movie, but honestly don't waste time, its the worst 1 yet… Expand
Nov 18, 2011WOW! I am not the average fan. I'm a sixteen year old boy who usually can't sit through any type of romance. However twilight was different. THIS twilight movie was by far the best of them all. It looked SO real at certain parts of the film, and was quite a mindf**k. Even twilight haters might like this movie. There is some action that is quite brutal. There is Drama, suspense, everything! SO GOOD! Nice job Bill Condon!… Expand
Bill Condon (Dreamgirls, Chicago, Gods and Monsters) takes over the directing reins for these final two parts; his most noteworthy contribution to the series so far is a terrifyingly staged birth scene that should turn the teen fan base off of sex altogether … which is precisely what this whole dumb, punishing series has been gunning for from the start.
In any case, the last twenty minutes of Breaking Dawn are so harrowing that it's possible to forget that most of the acting is soap-operatic (the guy who plays Carlisle is aging to look like Liberace) and the dialogue from hunger. The movie's that primal.

2010 Salzburg Trilogue
The 2010 Salzburg Trilogue will explore a new economic order that is no longer based on quantitative growth, but on increasing economic and social participation and reducing the environmental footprint. This requires recognizing the ethical limits to growth, redefining ideas of progress and prosperity and, according to many experts, placing a greater focus on non-material sources of wellbeing.Project Description
The Growth and Sustainability Debate: Asia's Perspective
During the forum that brought experts to Singapore to provide their ideas on sustainable development in Asia, Liz Mohn, vice-chair of the Bertelsmann Stiftung Executive Board, exchanged views with Prof. Kishore Mahbubani, dean of Singapore's highly respected Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy. Mahbubani expressed the need for a more equitable representation of Asian, European and American interests at international institutions and more equitable burden-sharing when it comes to solving the globe's sustainability problems.
Global systems increasingly under stress
The Millennium Project, the Washington, DC-based think tank that brings together researchers and thought leaders to examine issues relating to globalization and the future, presented its 14th report on global trends on July 7, 2010, at the Bertelsmann Stiftung in Berlin. According to the report, the chances of responding effectively to key global challenges such as climate change and unemployment have declined as a result of the financial and economic crisis and the failed Copenhagen summit.more
Colloquium With Tim Jackson on "Prosperity Without Growth"
For Tim Jackson, head of the Economics Steering Group at the UK's Sustainable Development Commission, "prosperity without growth" is not a fantasy but a compelling necessity. The author of the book by the same name, one of the most important publications dealing with post-growth economics, considers the era of continual growth over and "continuing on as in the past" neither desirable nor possible for numerous reasons.more

(Makes 6-8 servings, recipe created by Kalyn)
8 cups homemade chicken stock (or use 5 cans chicken broth)
1 tsp. dried basil
1 tsp. ground fennel
2 cans petitie dice tomatoes with juice
1 T + 1 tsp. olive oil
1 pkg. (5 links/19.5 oz.) hot or sweet turkey Italian sausage
1 onion, chopped into small dice
1 T minced garlic (or less if you're not that fond of garlic)
1 C dry macaroni (use Dreamfields Macaroni or whole wheat macaroni for South Beach diet)
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil (or 2 T chopped frozen basil)
freshly grated Parmesan cheese for serving (optional)
Add the other tsp. of olive oil to the frying pan if needed, then saute the onions for 3-4 minutes, or until they are starting to soften. Add the minced garlic and cook 1-2 minutes more. Add the onion and garlic to the soup pot. Deglaze the frying pan with about 1 cup of stock from the pot, adding that back to the soup. Let this simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes.
Add the macaroni, stir, and continue to simmer the soup for 15-20 minutes more, or until the macaroni is soft. Stir in the chopped fresh or frozen basil and cook 5 minutes more. Serve hot, with freshly grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
If you store leftover soup in the refrigerator or freezer, the macaroni will absorb some of the liquid, leaving you with a thicker soup (and puffier macaroni too!) You can add a little more chicken stock when you reheat the soup if you want, or just enjoy it a bit thicker, which is what I did.

The Mandate i.e. You MUST buy X, is struck down.

What is the difference then? Isn't "taxing" you if you don't buy something the same as requiring you to buy something?

Editors' note, June 9, 2014: The Kinect-free version of the Xbox One is now available (and fully reviewed). We'll be updating this review of the standard $500 version soon after E3 2014 with additional information and context.
Editors' note, May 13, 2014: Microsoft has announced that it will launch a Kinect-free version of the Xbox One on June 9 for $399 in the US and £350 in the UK. Furthermore, Xbox Live Gold will no longer be required to access media apps, but Xbox Live Gold subscribers will get access to free and discounted games during their subscription period.
Editors' note, March 11, 2014: This review was originally posted on November 19, 2013, and has been updated from its original version to reflect comparisons to PlayStation 4, and firmware updates the console has received.
Both the Xbox One and the Sony PS4 were released about four months ago. Since then, both consoles have received a handful of software updates, new apps, and new games -- making it a perfect time to look at them with fresh eyes.
Just a few months into the latest round of the Console Wars, the PS4 appears to have the edge in sales over the latest Xbox. But Microsoft is unsheathing its latest weapon in the form of Titanfall, a new multiplayer-focused sci-fi shooter that is exclusive to the Xbox and Windows platforms. In fact, as of March 11, shoppers can seek out a new Xbox One bundle that includes Titanfall (a $60 game) at no extra charge.
So, is that game, set, and match for the Xbox One? Not at all. Even with two recent small software updates under its belt, the Xbox One still carries with it a laundry list of issues: the vaunted live TV integration and voice control is often more a burden than a convenience; an overly convoluted dashboard interface; and some graphics and performance compromises compared to the PS4. The kicker remains the price tag: free Titanfall or no, the Xbox is $100 more than the PS4 ($499 versus $399), and you're stuck buying an Xbox Live Gold membership (up to $60 per year) to do anything online, from multiplayer gaming to watching Netflix.
On the other hand, there has been incremental progress. Those software updates delivered a handful of improvements: slightly better Kinect voice recognition, improved storage management, USB keyboard functionality, a battery charge indicator for controllers, better party and multiplayer systems, and real Dolby Digital audio output.
On the games front, the Xbox One boasts winning indie titles like Pebble 2 and Max: The Curse of the Brotherhood. Post-Titanfall, gamers are already looking forward to Project Spark: the free-to-play Xbox One exclusive (entering open beta in March) features an open sandbox world that is basically a crowd sourced development platform where players can play and build minigames with a powerful toolset at their disposal. There's also Sunset Overdrive and Quantum Break to look forward to, but we don't have any solidified dates on those two games either.
In other words, the Xbox One is better buy than it was at launch, but still not a slam dunk versus the PS4 -- or even the older Xbox 360 and PS3, which remain more affordable, and offer a much larger library of great games. If Titanfall is a must-have, the new Xbox One bundle may well put you over the edge -- just be aware that the game will also be coming to the PC and (albeit with less splendid graphics) to the Xbox 360 in a matter of days.
If Titanfall doesn't sway you, read on: we'll go in-depth on everything we love -- and don't love -- about the Xbox One, and how it stacks up against the PS4.

What's in the box
Inside the Xbox One box is the console, its power brick, the Kinect sensor, a 6-foot HDMI cable, one controller, and one chat headset. Like the $400 PS4, there's only one hardware version of the Xbox One, a 500GB system for $500.
Even though Kinect isn't vital to the Xbox One's functionality, you're still left paying the $100 premium for the Kinect, which comes in the box. (Of course, Kinect was originally required, but backlash forced Microsoft to remove it as a prerequisite.)
The PS4 includes a free month of the PlayStation Plus service (and its accompanying free games) and a $10 voucher for online purchases. As of March 11, you can buy a new Xbox One bundle that includes a download code for Titanfall (a $60 value) and a free month of Xbox Live Gold (worth $5 to $8). Needless to say, those are great extras compared to the earlier hardware-only bundle. If you have any interest in the Xbox One, definitely seek out the Titanfall bundle.
The hardware
Under the Xbox One's hood is an eight-core AMD CPU, 8GB of DDR3 RAM and a GPU clocked at 853 MHz. The Xbox One's specs trail the PS4's only slightly, but it's important to keep in mind this was the case last generation as well. Both consoles' architectures are more closely constructed this generation, so for the most part we'll likely see similar graphical performance. There are somewhat noticeable differences from time to time and it's certainly possible this will grow as the consoles age. For example, Tomb Raider runs at 60 frames per second on PlayStation 4, but only puts out 30 fps on Xbox One.
The Xbox One is significantly bulkier and notably less sleek than the PlayStation 4; some have described it as a retrofitted VCR. Quite frankly it's not really anything special to look at, though the glowing white Xbox logo on the right panel is oddly soothing.
One ugly carryover from the 360 is the Xbox One's external power brick. That's in contrast to the trim PS4, which manages to keep its power supply tucked inside.
The Xbox weighs around 8 pounds and measures in at 13.5 inches wide by 10.4 inches deep by 3.2 inches tall, but it doesn't go as deep as the PS4 (10.8 inches by 12 inches by 2 inches). Unlike the PS4, the Xbox One's internal 500GB hard disk is not user-replaceable. Wireless Xbox One features include 802.11n and Wi-Fi Direct, but there's no built-in Bluetooth support.
The box is littered with vents on top and around the sides. Xbox One is designed to be on nearly 24-7, if only because it sits in line between your cable box and TV. I've had the console on more often than not when I've been home, and impressively enough, the machine barely makes any noise. (That's a far cry from the jet-engine din of the original Xbox 360 consoles.)
Kinect 2.0 is bundled into the Xbox One system and is meshed into the console's operating system, more so than the PS4's PlayStation Camera (an optional $60 upgrade to the Sony system). Kinect is not required for operation, but Microsoft is never shy to heavily recommend attaching the device during the initial setup. The camera and microphone array take up a little more space than one of those old-school industrial Swingline staplers, so finding a spot for it shouldn't be too much of a task. Be warned, though, unlike the PS4 camera, you can't put the Kinect on top of your TV; that could be especially problematic if you have a sound bar at the base of your screen.
When it's powered on, you'll notice three infrared (IR) blasting beacons emanating from the front of the Kinect. In fact, the Xbox One can send and receive IR commands, which means it can both control your TV and audio receiver or sound bar (to a degree), and accept commands from a standard universal remote. (The PS4 can do neither, even with its camera connected.) Note, however, that the Xbox's database of control codes isn't comprehensive; we already found some mainstream TVs that it wasn't able to control.
Around back is a collection of ports: an HDMI-in and -out (for live TV integration), an optical audio port, two USB 3.0 slots (plus one on the left side for a total of three), the Kinect attachment interface, a slot for an IR blaster, and an Ethernet port. The IR slot is for owners who don't have line-of-sight (if their devices are behind a closed cabinet, for example) between their Kinect and AV devices. For these setups, a wire (not included) must manually run from the console to these devices so they can receive IR commands.
An Xbox One media remote control with more device compatibility will be available in March for $25. We'll have a separate review of it when it arrives.
Xbox One must lie horizontally, unlike the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3 and 4. Finally, standard-definition TV owners are out of luck; the Xbox One only connects digitally via HDMI.
Most of the Xbox One games I tried out look great and mostly perform well. Dead Rising 3 is capable of displaying a dizzying amount of zombies on screen at once -- way more than its hardware predecessor was physically able to do. Ryse: Son of Rome and Forza Motorsport 5 are the best-looking eye candy among the initial crop of exclusive titles.
As with the PS4, most multiplatform Xbox One games, especially those already available on current-generation systems, only look marginally better than the PS3 or Xbox 360 versions. In certain cases -- EA's sports titles, for instance -- new next-gen engines have been put in place to take better advantage of improved hardware. That said, the majority of games won't truly hit their stride until developers learn to master the system. It's just the nature of the beast and it affects both the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4 alike.
During any gameplay session, players can suspend the action and back out into the console's operating system, watch live TV, open other apps, or enter settings. The suspended game is only lost when a new game is started or the console is powered off.
Players can also "snap" certain apps to their gameplay screen, which I'll discuss in depth a little later.
Achievements are back with the Xbox One and presented within their own app in the operating system. Each achievement's details can be viewed and, depending on the game, some achievements will actually record gameplay the moment they are unlocked.
Microsoft is supporting independent game development for the platform, and those titles will be available exclusively in the Xbox One Game Store. Outside of digital-only offerings, all titles will be available in disc or digital form. If you buy digital versions of games, you can download and play them on any Xbox One you log in on. If you buy the disc version, that disc must follow you wherever you go. (The PS4 offers the same options for sharing digital and disc-based games.)
All games, disc-based or digital, completely install onto the system. You'll only need the disc to play if that's how you purchased the game. There's a significant install time that occurs the first time you pop in a game, noticeably lengthier than the time it takes to start a game the first time you play a PS4 title.
Just like the PS4, the Xbox One has no backward compatibility at all with Xbox 360 discs. The ability to buy and download classic games from Xbox 360 wouldn't be surprising down the road, but that's strictly wishful thinking for now -- no official announcements have been made.
Since the Xbox One's announcement, Microsoft has really drilled in the idea of cloud computing and how it will supposedly open the door for revolutionary in-game results. None of the launch titles we've seen incorporates cloud computing in any noticeable manner, but we're sure this kind of tech will surface as we head deeper into the console's life cycle.
The controller
It's tough for the Xbox team to have improved upon the Xbox 360 controller. Save for its subpar D-pad, the controller was easily the most comfortable one ever made. For Xbox One, the controller's shape and feel have undergone tweaks, and I can't say it's all for the better.
The new controller isn't necessarily uncomfortable, but it's gripped slightly different and has more angles as opposed the curves of the 360's controller. The Xbox guide button (now the Home button) is placed well away from where the Back and Start buttons used to flank it -- likely to avoid accidentally hitting. The Back and Start buttons are now the View and Menu buttons, respectively.
The Xbox One's controller still has the same layout for face buttons and the analog sticks are laid out in the same format as well. The sticks have smaller circular tops on the joysticks and they can be clicked in. The D-pad is the most different-looking, compared with the 360's controller; it no longer sits on a disc. The plus-shaped directional pad now clicks in four directions, totally eliminating the accidental inputs its predecessor suffered from.
The LB and RB buttons now have much more space atop the controller and the L and R triggers have a really solid squeeze and feel to them. There are even independent rumble motors tethered to each trigger, so, for example, stepping on the gas will shake the right trigger but not the left.
On top of the controller is a Micro-USB port that can be used if there's a rechargeable battery pack installed. It takes two AAs otherwise. There's also a sync button and two IR blasters that send information to Kinect. This is how Xbox One knows who is signed into the console, but more on that later.
Underneath the controller is a port for connecting a chat headset. Unfortunately, this interface isn't compatible with any 360 headset, though Microsoft will be releasing an adapter to so soon.
Additional Xbox One controllers can be purchased for $60 and the console can support up to eight connected at once.
Kinect 2.0 and the Xbox One interface
While Microsoft seemed to have gone all-in on how deeply rooted the motion sensing and voice recognition camera was going to be, a vehement pushback from the gaming community changed that. Sure, Kinect isn't required in order for Xbox One to work but it's still very much ingrained in much of the experience.
Xbox One is nearly completely controllable with the Kinect and your voice, though it can make for some frustrating moments. Kinect doesn't always hear you correctly and things that would take seconds to perform on a controller can take much longer as you start articulating and pronouncing every single syllable more clearer.
Kinect 2.0 introduces a handful of new voice and gesture commands, all of which will take some time getting used to. In fact, Microsoft provided me with a cheat sheet containing around 30 new voice commands and five new gestures -- though oddly this isn't included in the retail box.
When it does work, Kinect can provide some brilliant "a-ha" moments. Even the simple task of turning the console on without the need to locate a controller is a luxury tough to abandon once experienced for the first time.
The console can log you in using only your face, up to six different faces and six log-ins, to be exact. Once you turn on a controller, it then knows which player is holding which controller. It's a sneaky yet effective trick, especially when multiple users share a single console. During my test time with the feature, I found Xbox One would recognize me about 75 percent of the time. After almost four months with the console, that number has improved to about 85 percent.
When you're logged in to another console outside of your primary home console, your content is only available if you are the home user (meaning you push the Home button) on a controller. Once another attached user hits the Home button, they are then driving the console. This impacts which games and saves are available too. Essentially, your Xbox Live account follows you where you go. I'll dive deeper into Xbox Live accounts a little later.
Using the Skype app was a really great experience. The Kinect sensor isn't mechanical, but it can zoom in and out taking into consideration the amount of people in a given room. By tracking everyone's skeletons, the Skype video feed ensures everyone stays in the picture during a video conference. Skype is baked into the OS quite well and also responds to its own collection of voice commands. Keep in mind though, use of Skype requires an Xbox Live Gold membership.

I haven't been running my DK much in the last weeks, I've been prepping my live toons and stocking up to help speed my DK through leveling profs.
How is Rune Strike working now? What does it proc off of? Does it proc often?
Ravenous would be good as well, I just like having the longer diseases up. In your rotation I wouldn't worry about Death Coils unless you have sudden doom and it procs. When tanking I've found Rune Strike to be the RP dump of choice.

I'm in same situation. Haven't played around much on beta lately at all. Rune strike procs a ton when tanking/soloing. Goes off when you dodge or parry an attack. Big damage and tons of threat.
Semi-instant double weapon damage does not suck at all. And it's 20 RP now, so slightly more RP dump. And I agree, I don't Death Coil too frequently so I always have RP for IBF, but I'm careful not to let it to close to max. Scent of Blood can really crank up RP generation, so does using Death Rune Mastery to throw 4 quick Heart Strikes, which I can sometimes slip into rotation.

Your unholy spec fails
- No master of ghouls? wtf?
- No unholy aura?
- No gargoyle?
- Desecration?
Gargoyle and master of ghouls are blatantly easy and obvious choices for a mere 1 point each. Desecration is a massive waste of 5 talent points for any tank.
I have a question about Unholy, not necessarily tanking but general..if you are not dualwielding, I have read that necrosis and blood caked blade are wasted talents because of how little you auto attack. Any experience with that? Haven't played a DK yet but interested in trying, and wanted to know your opinions on it.
For a tank Garg and Ghoul aren't needed. Ghoul can cause issues, and Garg's rp will go for UB on multi pulls or Rune Strike on single mobs.
Desecration is alright, could be better, but it is decent at least. When its up can slow any mobs that might want to move away, plus the damage add it does.
Necrosis and BCB are better yes as DW talents. Both are all right with 2 handers though. They aren't make or break talents but decent.
I agree, on Gargoyle and Master of Ghouls. I don't keep a ghoul up while tanking, doesn't help and being able to direct it as a pet still doesn't make that smarter. Gargoyle RP can be more easily spent elsewhere, and my tanking specs are usually point starved.
I like Desecration for the dps increase, but also for the slow, it's nice for keeping runners pinned down.
You can make an argument for Necrosis being better with Dual Wielding, since you'll do a bit more white damage with smart gearing. BCB is a bit less distinct. With one 2-hander it hits less often but it hits harder, with two weapons it'll fire more often but hit much softer. I wouldn't leave them off if you're going with a 2-hander, but you can take that into account if you're trying to figure where you like your points best.

Ooooh dammit, I should get away from these posts xD
Now I'm thinking on playing a Death Knight instead of my warr >.<¡¡¡
In summary, TBC raiding is easy. 9/10 encounters can be summarized with 1 phrase. Stay out of the fucking fire.
Panda Cub with a Gnome pet!
These are tanking builds... if ghouls and gargoyles gave you a threat increase (since that is part of your job as a tank) they would be viable but at the moment like Satorri and Urrik posted previously for tanking RP is better off spent somewhere else...
Desecrate is a nice ability to have while you have an AOE crazy boomkin who just pulled aggro and your have 3 seconds until your DnD cooldown is up, but yes as future changes come to the death knight trees if you are looking to shave some points and put them elsewhere this and/or the anti magic talents maybe some of the best places to free up some talent points.
Unholy Aura...really?...yes i know Sunwell had most fights where a movement speed increase could make or break situation but blizzard has already said that do not plan on making an instance as difficult as that again and if the occasion arises in later raids in Wrath where that becomes a necessary move, then by all means take it but for early raids/heroics... i wouldn't count on it being a staple in a death knight tanks must have arsenal.
Like posts made above unholy is a great aoe tank build but a lot of the survivability in the form of avoidance comes from the frost tree and survivability in the form of stamina stacking comes from the blood tree. Every tree has its own tanking as well as dps niche however since Death Knights rely on decent DPS to for threat we will have to remind ourselves from time to time that keeping everyone alive is job 1... big numbers are nice but leave them to the rest of the raid.
and sattori, runestrike is still proc'ing all the time.

I have to disagree with your frost build.
First, Hungering Cold is almost useless in raids. Maybe for 5mans this would be useful, but your build is labeled for raid tank so I'd skip it.
Second, blizz has said that increasing TPS will be important in later raids. More important than it was in TBC. Skipping Bladed Armor, Icy Talons and Imp IT is just plain silly. Take the points out of BOTN and ravenous dead for these. I'd rather have +600ap in naxx gear than +15% dmg to one spell[(23,000armor/180)*5=639ap]. The haste increase is also amazing, at least if you are using a 2hander. With Icy Talons and Imp IT your 3.4 speed weapon will become 2.6 speed.
The death runes aren't required either. I've had no problem with threat/abilities without them. +3% str from Ravenous Dead is nice, but doing the math it really isnt that much of an increase. with 700str*0.03=21 additional strength. Thats +5 parry rating and 42ap. Not worth 3 talent points imo.
Build: Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft
Boss Rotation: IT>PS>Oblit>BS>BS - Rune strike/Frost strike when available and Howling Blast if Rime procs. Rinse and Repeat or Oblit>Oblit>BS>BS second rotation.
AOE Rotation: IT>PS>DnD>Pestilence>>Howling Blast>Blood Boil>etc etc.
This works very well for me.
Edit: Also, I have Rune strike macro'd to all my strikes. even then i usually have enough RP to use FS at the end of a rotation, especially if i have Blessing of Sanctuary.
Last edited by CombatJack; 10-31-2008 at 11:38 AM.
agreeing with hungering cold, but i think imp icy talons isn't so necessary since most of ur dmg is done by styles with a 2hander.
botn is very nice and adjuvant i think, yeah but ur right about the bladed armor, it's a pretty nice skill
edit, Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft is the build i wanna test, if i can run my betaclient x_X
but i'm concerned about only putting 1 point in epidemic, somone has experience with this?
an answer would be nice (=
Last edited by Aryeh; 10-31-2008 at 01:14 PM.
I do agree with your choice for putting the points in bladed armor and removing the points from as hungering cold is very situational looking back on it.
However in a raid there is an extremely large chance you will be able to count on windfury totem coming from your shaman and seeing as WF and IT don't stack those points would probably better spent in BotN...
As a ten man tank it maybe more practical since you will be loved for your haste buff if shaman are not dropping WF
*edit your math is good on the ravenous dead point drop as well and the change has been made.
1.) For putting 1 or 2 points in Epidemic it's all a matter of rotation. The thing to account for is whether or not your rotation is improved by the extra 3/6 seconds. I like my frost rotation without any simply because Icy Touch does good damage (or did anyway, I don't know if it has slipped too much with the Tundra Stalker change), and because of Rime. If you can squeeze more out of not reapplying your diseases, it's surely worth taking.
2.) If we're speaking in terms of raid buffs, then you can't make sweeping statements. Improved Icy Talons does not stack with Windfury, so having a shaman means you don't need the talent, though the 5% melee haste may be nice. The same could be said of Ebon Plague and Earth and Moon (Boomkin) or Imp Curse of Elements (Afflic Lock). You get my point.
There is a lot of swing room for different choices, though time and experience will tell what works best for you and your style.

just testet it on the beta server, i prefer
Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft
just switched the point from epidemic into hc, didn't need the 3 seconds extra time and hc is kinda nice in some situations (ok there aren't many of them) and a nice alternative to apply frostfever onto many targets without using an frost rune.
rotation now is: it,ps,bs,bs,ob-rp dump->it,ps,ob,ob-rp dump->
this works very well

i'm confused...oh wait...maybe i'm not...
combat... you are right... just did some situational testing the imp it + icy talons
previous build blood of the north - Image of 1s - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
build with imp it + icy talons - Image of 2s - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft - will be updated for frost tanking spec
just a question:
your testresults r without a wf totem, right?
so if i have a shaman dropping this, i don't need to skill icy talons. or?
i'm confused...oh wait...maybe i'm not...
Correct, these numbers are completely unbuffed... if you have a shaman dropping windfury you would see bigger tps gains by picking up the blood of the north.
As you can see from the recount data...
with IT and imp IT you see more of your base damage coming from white damage,
however when you pick up blood of the north you will see a larger amount of damage come from obliterates...
a WF totem + blood of the north build will give you the best overall numbers.

had another DK tank app to my guild... if you were told this is the spec for a "main tank" blood spec, what would this tell you about the player and there understanding of a class?
Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft
I'm posting this because i want to see some thoughts and opinions and make sure i'm not bias
I would say he should have 5 points in Toughness and possibly 3 in Icy.

Lets Talk Blinds - Live Chat
or Call Us
Love the look and ease of cordless blinds. Although I am still trying to settle an issue with the fit/construction of one of the four that I purchased. They made it slightly too short and the cords are pulling out of bottom. I would order again from here, since I have confidence that this problem will be corrected to my satisfaction...
Love the cordless feature and the install was a breeze.
I absolutely love these blinds. They are gorgeous and work flawlessly! I feel like I really got what I paid for!
i'd buy them again
Beautiful look and operation. However, the mounting brackets for inside mount blinds do not allow the blinds to be mounted flush with the outside window edge. Blinds will stick out about 1 1/2 inches which makes it necessary to order the valances with
returns in order to have a completely finished look. Customer service was diligent in trying to resolve the issue with the manufacturer on our behalf (I sent lots of pictures of the problem with the mounts). Still, we love how bright our rooms can be without
letting in direct rays from the sun and how easy these are to raise and lower - with no strings attached! (pun intended). Thanks SelectBlinds - we'll be back for more.
The NEW Cordless Faux Wood Blinds feature a 1 1/2 inch slat for a streamlined look and easy operation. These cordless blinds offer the safety benefits of a cordless product by eliminating the lift cords. The blind is operated by pushing on the bottom rail to raise it and pulling on the bottom rail to lower it. These cordless blinds come standard with left tilt wand and a 3 inch crown valance to conceal the pvc headrail. As with all of our products these cordless faux wood blinds come standard with a limited lifetime warranty.

SUU's Hunter Conference Center to Showcase
The Photography of Paul Michael Sciacca
January 15–February 15, 2014
Photo credit: "Silent Dawn" by Paul Michael Sciacca
Southern Utah University, Cedar City, Utah: Las Vegas-based photographer Paul Michael Sciacca's work incorporates thoughtful composition and a unique, breathtaking luminescence that make it stand out from the crowd. His landscape photography, which feature stunning seascapes and the iconic landscape of the American Southwest, will be displayed on the 2nd floor of SUU's Hunter Conference Center, beginning with a reception at 6:30pm on Wednesday, January 15, 2014. Light refreshments will be served. The exhibition will continue until February 15, 2014, and is open Mon–Fri, 10am–5pm. The work will be available for purchase throughout. Admission is free and the public is encouraged to attend.
Born in Brooklyn, New York, Paul Michael Sciacca learned at an early age how to shoot pictures with a manual Canon 35mm camera. After college, he landed a job working on a film in New York. That experience led him to Hollywood to work full-time in makeup effects. After nearly 10 years in the film industry, he grew tired of the uncertainty and accepted a position with Disney. Following this experience, he set out on his own and began the company Creations Ink, developing relationships with major film studios to sculpt promotional toys. Though Creations Ink grew to a staff of 25 artists, the events of 9/11 influenced him to move on to individual pursuits such as web design, graphic design, and video production. These wide variety of experiences and explorations inform his singular photographic compositions, which emerge from the paper with color, light, and lines that offer a fresh perspective on his landscape subjects.
Sciacca believes fine art should be reasonably priced, making it available to a wide audience. He realized this after trying to purchase a photo at a Las Vegas art gallery. After learning that it cost more than his car, he invested in camera gear to recreate the photo himself. When friends saw it and asked how to get one, his photography career began.
Please take advantage of this opportunity to experience the talent of this emerging landscape photographer, whose varied career and experience have led to a product that mesmerizes audiences. For more information on the SUU College of Performing and Visual Arts events, please call the Arts Hotline at (435) 865-8800, or visit www.suu.edu/pva/arts.
