The product looks nothing like the picture. I was very disappointed when my 90 year old grandma opened the box. I thought it would have a little more sparkle to it. It was all dusty too.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

This should be a fun thread!
This should be a fun thread!
how about the chance for thunderforged gear increases drop rate as the patch progresses (for example 5% more each week?)
Yes your ideas are right ... elite fights dropping Thunderforged (or a high probability) makes sense.
Thuderforged being equivalent to "fully" valor upgraded would be a good idea. No buyers remorse on upgrading a piece only to see a Thunderforged version drop and then having to spend valor again.
Perhaps a better way to do it would be for them to drop Thunder Forge tokens (or a material) which you can take to the Thunder Forge and have a forge master upgrade your existing items?
At this point, the fact the we don't know anything about any Elite Fight is a sign... there wont be elite encounter and gear this time. And maybe the upgrades are only a catch up mechanism in 503.
The controversial topic is the LFR item level (502), you just bypassed t14 like nothing. This time the 10's and 25's very much agree that this wont make a lot for 25's and screws completionist.
In the forums I wrote
Three comments on this:
Is this a thing?
I can't see this as a motivation to get in 25 and I doubt it is for my Raid Leader UNLESS there are not enough 10 man raiders so we need to move to 25 to get people. So as a incentive I think it fails.
Why it has to be RNG based?
Ok, you want to give a little more incentive to farm and a little more for doing 25 over 10, but why it has to based on chance? couldn't be good old farming? Maybe even RNG but not an absolute 0-1, but more like you need 10 items to get the Thunderforged item, you'll get 0-3 items each week. Like the Motes and essences in DS but with other numbers, so at least you know that you are getting something every kill.
If you want to give something to the people organizing the raids? Why do you give it to the raiders?
Set something that marks who is the raid leader in a 25 man, like a raid registering form that you need to fill before creating a raid group and each kill and raiding night that the raid leader participates count towards him (maybe 1-2 officers too), and when they complete the raids give them:
- a mount
- an achievement
- a title
- a shiny effect on their armor
- a set of gear for transmog
- all of the above?
The only way to make 25 man raids more interesting is making that those capable of organizing have the desire to doing them more than doing 10 man. Make the 10 raid leaders jealous of the 25 raid leaders, make them create the incentive for the raiders, make the 25 man leaders be your army to recover the relevance of this format.
What could go wrong, right?!Make the 10 raid leaders jealous of the 25 raid leaders,
Currently, when you get a drop, the tool tip shows the upgrade status with the 0/2. It's possible that the T15 gear will not have that. The entire tier of gear may not be capable of upgrades even when 5.3 drops and the vendor is (presumably) back.
IF that is the way it plays out, then the TF gear is in effect an alternative to valor upgrading. Just a different implementation that is RNG based instead of "the grind".
Also, realistically, if 5.3 drops and T16 gear is available, wouldn't it be a "waste" of the limited valor you can earn for the tier if you spent a bunch of valor on T15 gear that you are now actively trying to replace? There is the age old question of if it would be worth it in order to speed progression but is 6 iLvls really going to make that much difference? I mean, 6 iLvls average for the whole raid is significant. Six iLvl for a couple slots probably would not be that noticeable.
"he doens't need healing, he doesn't need healing, he doesn't nee-WHAOSHIT!wtf was that man!". Please stop leaning on TDR. -Teng
Supposedly the upgraders will be back later in the tier.Currently, when you get a drop, the tool tip shows the upgrade status with the 0/2. It's possible that the T15 gear will not have that
The rumors I heard hinted that it would be 5.3 before they came back...IF they came back. Anyways, it's all speculation at this point anyways. I just really dislike the whole idea.
What does it fix?
There is a chance that 25 man will be more geared. This would probably play out pretty well since they don't have the same scale of problem with sharded gear. Is that little bit of gear enough to make GMs and officers want to take on the increased management work? Not likely. You may have more raiders who want to do 25s, but not the GMs creating spots for them.
Short answer: It fixes nothing with any certainty.
What does it break / make worse?
Loot drama just added a whole new layer. People wanting to hold off on upgrades so they get a TF level piece first regardless of the rarity, etc. What about off-specs? If the gear is common enough to be an actual incentive to 25s, then the same guy who got a trinket upgrade last week may be soaking up that same trinket this week because it dropped TF. Now those dual role players who heal one fight and dps another or need their OS for whatever reason are much less likely to ever have a functional level of gear. If you are likely to see enough non-TF drops to avoid that, then it's not much incentive for 25s.
"he doens't need healing, he doesn't need healing, he doesn't nee-WHAOSHIT!wtf was that man!". Please stop leaning on TDR. -Teng
That's the complete wrong way to go about fixing it though."If you want to give something to the people organizing the raids? Why do you give it to the raiders?
Set something that marks who is the raid leader in a 25 man, like a raid registering form that you need to fill before creating a raid group and each kill and raiding night that the raid leader participates count towards him (maybe 1-2 officers too), and when they complete the raids give them:
- a mount
- an achievement
- a title
- a shiny effect on their armor
- a set of gear for transmog
- all of the above?"
You shouldn't be having to "bribe" people into 25man raiding who don't want to or can't be bothered to do it.
There are plenty of people that WANT to do 25man raiding, they're just spread out too much. 3 free realm transfer every 3 months would do far more for 25man raiding than bribing in people who don't really want to do 25man raiding, just because it gives extra gear / cosmetics - they're not going to stick around when they get bored of that.
Blizzard need to focus less on putting a golden palace at the end of the road, and more on smoothing out the road. The problem with 25mans isn't the reward, it's getting 25 people (and spares) in one place.
It's just funny that somehow a lack of 25-man raids is being treated as this problem. It's fairly clear which format the players prefer, but for some reason people feel this need to go about lamenting the "death" of 25-man raiding and pitching ideas to force people back into it.
i think the best way to go about the thunderforged items and adding to the incentive of 25s would be to make them like the tokens in firelands that were used to up the BoEs.
say a 5% chance per boss in 10s and 10% chance in 25s, for the boss to drop a thunder token. then make it so you have to use the thunderforge thing on the island so that raiders would have a bit more incentive to do the dailies that are going to be there,
It will be interesting to see if any top guilds remain 10 man when this system goes into place. For the average raider I don't think it will matter a whole lot since it's RNG, but the top guilds will be looking to get every single advantage possible.
Edit: I guess what I mean is that it will be interesting if Paragon remains 10 man. I thought there was more 10 man top guilds than it actually was
Reev: So, do I macro /dance into Shield Slam now? Raysere: Yes, I hear it increases your DPS Gold balance gear quality attractiveness to the opposite gender considerably
Whilst I don't think this idea forces people to raid 25 man, I still dislike it very much. I think anything that causes gear differences is a bad thing.
Why should 25 man raiders be rewarded for clearing content in 25 man? Its not like the raiders are putting in any extra effort...nor does it take extra skill to play in a 25 man raid. The only persons job which is much more difficult is the raid leaders job and by extension some officers involved with the organizational side of things.. Why should you as a random DPS get rewarded for the hard work the raid leader put in, when you put no extra effort in on your part?
The reward itself should be the fact you are actually seeing and killing bosses in the raid size you prefer, and there being less RNG for your gear as there is a larger chance your item will appear from the loot table than in a 10 man.
As somebody who raids both 10 and 25 man, and has to put the same amount of effort into either, I don't personally think 25 mans deserve any extra reward for being a 25 man and I feel people need to move away from that line of thinking.
That said, I do think 25 man needs help, I just don't think that extra rewards to gear everyone up slightly better is the answer.

Eald: You're picking this up totally the wrong way. Rewarding the raid leader extra is a whole can of worms you do NOT want to open up.
I would love to run a 25 man raiding guild. Right now I'm an officer in a 10 man guild because there are no 25 man raiding guilds on my server, and not enough people interested in 25 man raiding. I'd have to migrate off the server to do that. If I would get rewarded more for running a 25 man guild, that still wouldn't encourage any others to join that guild.
On top of that, there are lots of people currently content with letting others lead, who would then forced to lead the raids themselves to get the reward. IE, 25 people that currently might want to raid together, then suddenly wouldn't, because they want all the others to join their group, rather than the other way around. Or perhaps set up a round robin. And then the raid leader tag is just pointing out whoever is receiving the special bonus this week (which will be messy when you need to use raid extentions). All in all not leaving the desired result at all.
If Blizzard wants their 25 man raiding back, they should really merge the lower pop servers, so there would be enough people on the same server to raid 25 man with! Or create other ways for people to find each other and play together without having to place big bucks on the table and hope for the best. As Lore described it well, it's the problem of the people finding each other.
As for the rewards, they're trying to make the rewards so that some of the people that don't care between 10 or 25 man raiding would lean more towards 25 man raiding, while those who really prefer 10 man raiding aren't left in the cold. This could be a good try, but it could use a little more evening it out.
If Thunderforge would coexist with valor, but not stack, it would be nicer to have the valor upgrades simply be called Thunderforge, rather than having a Thunderforge piece or a 2/2 piece which would lead to the exact same.
As for Elite, I doubt we'll see them every raid tier. They did it in AQ40, then again in OS. Sporadically. Then when they tried to bring it up a lot, things ended up like Ulduar and it eventually devolved into HC mode. Do we want every boss to have a HC and an Elite mode? That would be nuts.
Ahm, rewarding the leader have works wonders for every industry out there.
I was thinking that I already addressed the fact that yes, more people will try to lead a 25man than those capable of doing it, and their groups will fail, given the time the raiders will learn to choose their group, wait that already happen, if you don't ask questions in your interview is your fault being with a bad raid leader.
And two things about the raid form:
- You can make it so you need months to get enough points to get the rewards, so you can't rotate.
- You create a raid like you create a guild right now, and when you get into an instance you set which Raid group are you going to give the points (that means you has set your leader and officers) and nobody else will get this points, you can of course set up alt raids, to workaround, anyway, you will have a capable leader setting up a 25man raid.
About the "I don't want to pay for transfer", I have paid my transfer, mains and alts to raid, because that is what I need to do to play in a group that I feel comfortable playing, have done 10 and 25, lots more 10. Why do you think that this will benefit 25man more? Won't this make the things just more convenient to 10man? What will stop this I-want-to-do-25man-guy to get an easy to handle 10man group in the best server possible (size depending if he want to do gold or to spend, faction and so on).

- Singapore
Travelling Alone - Singapore & Malaysia
March 2010
Hi I am travellign to Singapore alone, i have been told by many peopel that it is safe to travel alone to Singapore & Malaysia, but being travel experts could you please advise me further. I have alreayd bought my tickets & the money includes everythign my accomodation, tarnsportation to & fro airport and my tours are booked with transport. So basically am only taking money for my expenses such as food & any shopping, how much should i take for 13 days.
Will very much appreciate your help.
March 2010
angelbaby - Singapore and Malaysia are two very safe destinations, but it is always worth taking precautions. Start by reading our Word Travels guide to
, including the safety tips.
As for money, well food is very cheap and delicious in those places. so you can eat very decently for $30 a day. Shopping is harder to predict...
Have fun!
March 2010
Hi Thank you DavidF I will have a look at the guide. thank you ones again.
Just oe last question do you think $4000 is enough for 13 days including both the countries.
thank you!!!
March 2010
$300 per day should be plenty for accom, food, transport and spending money. Keep it safe though! Probably best to use a credit card and draw cash or travelers cheques which are still a safe way of transporting money despite being out of fashion these days.
March 2010
Hi DavidF, my accomo, and all the tours are already paid so the moeny I will be taking is just for my expenses including food and any shopping. But thanx this so great to get an answer so quick. Its just tht this is the first time am travelling so far and fist time to singapore & malaysia and also that too alone. So little bit nervous, with excited.
March 2010
Hey, you'll have a great time. Enjoy. Read the guides I linked you to, they'll steer you in the right direction...
March 2010
Hi angelbaby, I just happen to read your inquiry about how much you need to bring to spend on food and shopping in Singapore and Malaysia and like to give some suggestions. Food and transportation are cheap especially in Malaysia; shopping is about half or even less than Europe price. Since all the big items are already paid for, SGN$3,000 is more than enough to spend like a Duke. By the way, I am a Singaporean.
March 2010
Hi PhilipK, thank you for the advise, am actaully from new zealand, so it is prity hard for me to make out how much to bring. Out of 13days i'll only be in malaysia for 5 days. so dont think much will be bought but singapore will be spending more time there. You know how it is beter not be less rather be more
. So cool sine my accomo and all ym tours and tour transport is paid what you are saying s that for 13 days including singapore & malaysia SGN $3000 is enough right. Cool Thanks.
March 2010
Thank you DavidF.....thnak you for your advise I sure will enjoy....And upon my return will let you know.
Thank you!!!!!!!
April 2010
Hi angelbaby, since you are from New Zealand you can expect to spend lesser than what you would in your country: maybe 10 to 20%. SGN$1,000 (equivalent to M$2,500) and that's a lot for 5 days in Malaysia. The best places to go in Malaysia are Malacca and Penang (you can fly to Penang via www.Jetstar.com or www.Tigerairways.com (SGN$50) and for Malacca is better by Coach (SGN$30).
You can go to www.wikitravel.org/en/singapore or /penang or /malacca for more info.
Happy holiday
April 2010
Angelbaby, you ask if Singapore and Malaysia are safe to travel in alone. Take this advice from a long-term expat in Singapore. You have to keep in mind that these countries could not be more different in terms of crime, safety, corruption and such. Singapore is probably the safest place in the world in any respect you can think of. While I don't want to say that crimes never happen here, you practically never have to worry about getting your pocket picked, getting scammed, ripped off in taxis, mugged, etc. Also, the food is safe, you can drink water out of the tap, and the medical care is top-notch (if you happen to need it, knock wood). Everything is above-the-board in SG, and the people are fair-minded. If you lost your wallet in Singapore, I'd say there's a 9 in 10 chance someone will look up your ID and try to return it to you.
In Malaysia though, you don't want to get on the wrong end of any kind of dispute, physical or otherwise. Unlike in SG, cops in MY will side with whoever pays them off, and you are wise to keep an eye on where your wallet, handbag, backpack is at any given moment. By and large it is a safe place, but you gotta keep your head on your shoulders. The only thing that is unsafe in EITHER country is drugs -- do NOT take in even the smallest amount. You will be caught, you will be caned (at minimum) or killed (if over a certain amount). That said, Singapore customs is deceivingly friendly, and if you are within the law (ie, no drugs), you'll find it one of the easiest and friendliest immigration desks in the world.
By the way, the shopping is top notch. Four new malls on Orchard Road in the last 6 months, with others having gone under major improvements. Best are ION and Paragon on Orchard.
April 2010
Hi Angelbaby, Generally Singapore & Malaysia is a safe place. Should you visit Singapore, a must place would be Orchard Road & Sentosa. Orchard Road will be a nice place for shopping & if your budget permit, drop by Sentosa & visit Singapore latest attraction the Universal Studio (kinda of miniture USA Universal Studio).
As for Malaysia, visiting it's capital city Kuala Lumpur would be a good choice. A good way to go to Kuala Lumpur from Singpapore is via an executive coach bus (www.aeroline.com.sg). The bus will stop smack in the city centre just 5 mins walk to Malaysia's icon Petronas Twin Towers. Shopping heaven in Kuala Lumpur will be at Bukit Bintang area which is less that 1.5km from Petronas Twin Towers.
All the best!

Singapore and Malaysia were safe location to visit ...Singapore is well known for its beautiful parks and open spaces. For a free and lazy outing, wander around one of the many areas of natural or cultivated beauty. The Botanical Gardens, Zoological Garden and Jurong Bird Park are all well worth a trip. Malaysia is no exception. A must visit for wildlife enthusiasts. Its great to see so much heritage and culture preserved in spite of the tremendous growth in technology and the rapid spread of globalization.

Hi there,
I am flying into KL from the Gold Coast in March and wanted to know what would be the best route to take (and how) when i want to see the the lovely beaches of Malaysia and make it to Singapore. I have to be back in KL after a 5 week period. Any advise on MUST SEE'S are also very welcome. I often travel OS but this is my 1st trip to these 2 countries. I am aware that some places "off the beaten track" can usually be the highligh of any trip. Any recommedations? Much appreciated.

Hi I am travelling to singapore in two weeks with my father, who has some illnesses, which may need doctor consultations. Can you let me know whether the GPs and OPD s in Hospitals are open in weekends? Where should I contact for an emergency medical assistance. I am not refering to a hospital admittance. But just to consult a doctor and have some medicine.

What are the best must do/ see things in Singapore? Any recommendations? I'm just trying to build a list of places so that I can plan my trip next year.
Thank you!

I just go to travel at Malaysia. It has much nice place and good food. I love it and have some picture when go to travel.
July 2011
Kuala Lumpar ,main city in Malaysia has so much to offer.A must to visit is the Twin Towers of Petronas Towers. Also the main park has such a variety of animal life and fauna and flora.
Singapore is also a fantastic place. Make time for a 'bumboat' trip up the river from Clarke quay. Orchard road superb for shopping and sitting at a cafe watching the world go by.
Never felt threatened in either of these countries and loved every second of being there...Enjoy!!!!!

I just got back to the US from 3 weeks in Singapore and Malaysia...First of all Singapore is the safest country I have ever been to...much safer than the US. It is the most cleanest city/country also...I also traveled thru Malaysia and it was totall safe..So Have Fun...TravelWitSpells!
November 2011
Kadam, cost will be very subjective depending where you want to go. If you are goin to Sentosa it can be a bit costly unless you are planning just for Botanic Garden, Zoo or Jurong Bird Park. Like wise on food, eating at Clarke Qauy chilly crabs will cost you a BOMB! May i suggest you plan on your budget first & see how it can blend.
January 2012
I am going to Singapore this Feb. only a 4 days tour. will be arriving Singapore at 15:45. I want to go straight to Malaysia to see Petronas and be back to Singapore for the Universal Studios. , is it safe to travel to KL from Singapore around 23:00? How much is the fare? What Bus can you recommend? How much is the fare from Singapore to KL? I've read that Malacca is a good place to see? would it be possible to see Malacca also on way to KL?
January 2012
Hey there, I'm going to Singapore for 9 days. I have paid for acomodation. Will $1000 AUS be enough for food, sight seeing and traveling around?
February 2012
Hello, I'll be visiting Singapore for 6 days on my own on April. Should be exciting but its my first time to travel on my own.
I do have friends in SG but most of them are working during weekdays, and that leaves me to go on my own itinerary.
I plan to stay in a hostel near Clark Quay-but still undecided. Somewhere vibrant, not stiff and a lot of people.
I want to join 'walking group tours' or dinner group--for a chance of interaction, but I don't know which tour groups are usually packed and has a good number of mixed people.
So for a solo-traveller-where are the good stops? Anything and everything under the sun is cool for me?
Also, is it possible to visit KL? Whats the easiest way and will save me time (except flying)..
April 2012
Katrina, you can take a bus from Singapore to KL...its cheap, comfortable and takes 4 hours.
To plan your trip, you can use this very useful website/app www.tripflick.com

I was planning to go to Malaysia alone this summer, but the thing is I am 17 at present, and my folks were telling me that there are traps for young travellers and so on and so forth, I would very much appreciate if an expert would guide me through to the best alternative ??
November 2012
Hi Hussey,
malaysia is generally quite a safe country to travel in. That being said, I am guessing that you are a girl and therefore your parents are worried during your solo travel, plus you are quite young in my opinion. I travelled in a small group when I was 19..
That being said, it is always more important to be careful and alert because you never know when you will fall prey to.
Hence, I think the best alternative if you would like to go to malaysia is to check into a backpacking hostel and get to know a bunch of friends who share similar itinerary as you. And ask if you could tag along or something. This will get you more people and a bunch of possibly lifetime friends.
Recommend that you check out travelfish - it is for Southeast Asian backpackers with really good tips to share - or you can also check out travelmob - for their social stays where you can connect with hosts who are willing to take you around in a safe manner that gives your folks a peace of mind.
hope it helps. Stay safe and have fun!

hello all..great comments so far. I'm planning a trip around June/July 2013, single traveler. Any advice on cheap, but clean hotels. Maybe in areas central to the city or areas of cheap food and good nightlife. thanks
December 2012
Singapore has one of the best public transportation systems you'll ever encounter, so it's very easy to get around. Most of the areas of interest are all within walking distance of one another
December 2012
hi zippins, clean and cheap hotel im not very sure. but i do know one hotel which is still not bad and the price is also acceptable. u can try ibis bencoolen. it is at the town area, walking a few streets down you can find a hawker center with really good and cheap food. besides that, there are also several food centers with very nice and cheap food. cheapest food is about SGD2.50
and if you know how to walk, striaght down the hotel have several pubs (nightlife)
February 2013
If you have money and you have 18 or 18 + age then you can travel alone.you have collect travel guide because you can arranged all these things.

You should check out Hotels. Com
This a reliable site that I have used many times to find a hotel
Once you see a hotel you like you can then check it out on Trip Advisor and see the reviews here is an example
For example the Drop Inn Singapore is cheap and has good reviews.
Food courts are the cheapest and best places to eat. There is so much to see and do in Singapore look here
You do not say what country your from so I found this information from the Malaysian High Commission
Have a great time
May 22
I know its very late. But Can I come with you. I want to see Singapore

July 28
Singapore is absolutely safe to travel.. Anywhere and anytime..
September 2
Singapore is a safe place to travel alone though you would do well to have a friend or loved one with you next time. Also select St. Regis Singapore as your base the next time to decide to go to Singapore.
September 13
Singapore and Malaysia both are safe mostly and you can go any time may be in the next year I go to the business meeting to the both countries..
September 30
Useful post..Singapore and Malaysia both places are most beautiful.Both places are safe and secure for unknown peoples like tourist and visitors.
November 26
I found Singapore was really easy. The public transport is great and at times I caught the taxi coz it's quite cheap. Malaysia tho was different. You have to be careful of taxis coz they like to charge you a flat rate and overcharge you.

If you want to use a slow cooker...
Brown the chicken in batches, transfer to the slow cooker and add the flour, onions, lardons, garlic, mushrooms, bay leaves, redcurrant, orange zest, red wine and stock and season. Cover and cook on High. Make the dumplings according to step 4, then sit on top of the casserole after 4 hours. Cook for another 1-2 hours.

- Preheat the oven to fan 180C/ conventional 200C/gas 6. Season the chicken with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then coat lightly in a little of the flour. Heat the oil in a large ovenproof lidded casserole dish and, in batches, brown the chicken on both sides over a high heat. Remove the chicken and set aside.
- Reduce the heat, add the onions and lardons and cook for about 5-8 minutes so they are golden tinged. Add the garlic, then sprinkle in the plain flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring to prevent sticking.
- Add the mushrooms, bay leaves, redcurrant sauce and orange zest, then pour in the red wine and stock and season with salt and pepper. Bring to the boil, then return the chicken to the casserole dish, making sure it is well covered with the liquid. Put on the lid and cook in the oven for 30 minutes.
- While the casserole is cooking, prepare the dumplings. Put the self raising flour, breadcrumbs, mustard and butter in a food processor and blitz to a crumb consistency. Add the thyme, parsley, eggs and salt and pepper. Briefly blitz until the mixture forms a fairly moist dough. Using floured hands, roll the dough into 6 large, even-sized balls.
- Remove the casserole from the oven when the 30 minutes is up and sit the dumplings on top. Pop the lid back on and return to the oven for a further 20 minutes, until the casserole is cooked and the dumplings have puffed up. Spoon the chicken and sauce onto six plates and top each with a dumpling. Serve with a rich, fruity red wine.

Comments, questions and tips
Made this in the slow cooker. Loved the addition of peeled orange zest and used strawberry jam (!) instead of redcurrant sauce but it was a really delicious meal. The dumplings were lovely even though I used a pinch of dried mixed herbs instead of fresh thyme and parsley. The dumplings had an hour in the slow cooker but still needed 10-15 minutes in the oven at the end. Served with roasted root veg and french beans - yummy!
Simply perfect! I followed this recipe last week whilst holidaying in Scotland. It was truly delicious, really easy to prepare and so full of comforting flavour. The dumplings also came out really well and made a nice change from mashed potatoes (although mashed potatoes are a great replacement if you don't have time to make the dumplings). It was perfect with a side of broccoli and cauliflower. Will definitely make again.
This has been a firm favourite since I first tried it. I didn't have the smoked bacon lardons so I used diced chorizo. Adds a bit of spice and smoke which I think works really well. I'm also not a fan of dumplings so I don't do them and serve with whole grain mustard mash and fried nutmeg cabbage for an ultimate winter warmer comfort hit.
I was expecting something amazing after all the good reviews, it was ok but i won't be making it again.Dumplings were nothing special and the dish wasn't very attractive. Don't use red onions this is all i had and the whole dish turned purple so didn't look very appetising however i take full responsibility for that!!
I made this last week for my family, and served it with mash and green beans. It went down well with all everyone. We upped the quantities to make enough for 8 and split it between 2 casserole dishes when it went in the oven. The chicken was really lovely and tender, and the dumplings were very tasty. The orange and redcurrant weren't overpowering, but just gave it a light fruitiness. Not sure I'll make it again because there are so many other casseroles I fancy making, but I do recommend it.
Used a mixture of skinless chicken thighs and drumsticks and a smoked gammon steak in place of the lardons... it wasn`t the prettiest of dishes and the sauce was a little thin, but yum yum. Gave the dumplings a miss and served with smoked mash, went down a treat. Would definately make again, only thing I`d do differently would be to remove the lid for the last 10 mins or to thicken up a bit.

LOS ANGELES — Tony Parker scored 31 points and the San Antonio Spurs led all the way in beating the Los Angeles Clippers 116-90 on Thursday night for their fifth straight victory and first over the Clippers this season.
The Spurs improved to an NBA-best 22-10 on the road, where they've also won five in a row.
Parker had seven assists and no turnovers in 28 minutes and Danny Green added 15 points. The West-leading Spurs tied their season-best with 59-percent shooting, hit eight 3-pointers and made 22 of 28 free throws. They had lost both previous meetings with the Clippers in November.
Matt Barnes scored 18 points, Blake Griffin had 17 points and Jamal Crawford 15 points as the Clippers' four-game winning streak ended in their first game after the All-Star break. Chris Paul, MVP in Houston last weekend with 20 points and 15 assists, was held to four points on 1-of-6 shooting and three assists.
The Clippers have lost their first game coming out of the break in nine of the last 10 years, including five in a row. They came in trailing the Spurs by 4 1/2 games for the best record in the NBA, but they never got a run going and their defense didn't do much. The biggest excitement during the game was generated by a fan who made a half-court shot during a timeout to win a new car.
The Spurs led by 28 points to start the fourth quarter, when Parker rested and fans hit the exits in droves. The Clippers equaled their worst loss of the season.
San Antonio put on a free-throw shooting clinic in the third quarter, making 16 of 20, including 12 during a 14-4 run that extended its lead to 81-53.
The Spurs shot 63 percent to lead 58-43 at halftime. Parker scored 17 points in the half, while Griffin was the only Clipper in double figures with 13 points. Paul didn't make his first basket until the final 3 minutes of the second quarter.
San Antonio made its first six shots to start the game and used a 17-4 run, including seven by Manu Ginobili, to close out the first quarter leading 34-21.

Dear Viewers and Listeners:
This spring ETV is proud to be shining a bright light on the music of Charleston.
In a recent half-hour program, ETV's Mark Quinn and The Big Picture told the little-known story of Charleston jazz—a story about the roots of jazz in the Lowcountry. What caught my eye was the rich blend of jazz and big band sounds of the Charleston Jazz Orchestra that is drawing capacity crowds at the Charleston Music Hall. Using ETV's vast archives, the program also looks at the possible origins of the "Charleston" dance craze of the 1920s. It's a fascinating story you can find at scetv.org/thebigpicture.
And now, ETV Radio focuses on Charleston's world-class Spoleto Festival USA. For more than 30 years, ETV Radio has produced programming covering the Festival including broadcasts of the Spoleto Chamber Music Concertsand Spoleto Today, a daily roundup of Festival events.
Recorded in the historic, recently refurbished Dock Street Theatre, Chamber Music Concerts air weekdays on our classical stations during the Festival. Public radio personality Lisa Simeone is the host of the 13 nationally syndicated one-hour concerts. This year's broadcast marks the inaugural season of Spoleto's charming new chamber music boss—violinist Geoff Nuttall. In addition, throughout the year, select performances from the Chamber Music Series from Spoleto Festival USA are broadcast on American Public Media's Performance Today, a program heard by more than 1.2 million listeners each week around the country. The host of Performance Today, Fred Child, took part in this year's opening ceremonies in May and conducts a stage talk with Osvaldo Golijov, the Chamber Music series' composer-in-residence for 2011.
Spoleto Today is an hour-long weekday program airing regionally that features interviews, highlights and commentary from Spoleto, considered one of the world's most comprehensive arts festivals. Tune in at 9:00 a.m. to find out what is hot in Charleston with beloved host Marcus Overton, performing arts professional for more than 30 years and the former general manager of Spoleto Festival USA.
And you can keep up with all of this at ETVRadio.org. Join us for a music-filled month from Charleston!

To get ultraxion you want the average dps of each damage dealer to be around 35k. This will be enough to kill him just before the damage gets really rough and the cooldowns start to drop off (5 mins 30). However, the damage isn't really what will stop you killing him, rather people derping Fading light (2 people + the tank need to react, and you can have as little as 3 seconds) or the Hour of Twilight rotation.
What was killing you on Yorsahj? Which blobs are you killing and how are you handling the Mana Void?

Post subject: DVD: no medium found
I just installed Blag 19999.00081 and I like it a lot. The one problem is that if I try to mount anything in my DVD-ROM drive, I get the error :
mount: No medium found
This happens whether I'm logged in as root or as a user (cbw). When I put an audio CD into the drive, CD Player reports that the drive is open. In each case, when I put a disk into the drive, the LED comes on and the disk spins and then nothing. I also have a CD writer which seems to be working fine and can mount/read all the disks I've tried.
The hardware browser correctly identifies the two drives :

I tried changing the ownership of /dev/hdc to root.disk and changing the permissions, but it didn't make any difference. Rebooting the machine resets the ownership/permissions, I'm not sure where this happens.
It occurs to me that this might be a hardware problem, which is just coincident on my installing Blag, but I'm hoping I've missed something.
Sorry for the long posting, but I wanted to give as much detail as possible. Any help would be appreciated.

mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom
mount /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom
Also, is it a regular data CD? You can't mount audio CDs like a data disk.
Also, to make sure the drive mapping is right, try:
eject /dev/cdrom
eject /dev/cdrom1

I'm sorry, I didn't make myself clear
/dev/hdc is the DVD drive.
/dev/hdd is the CD writer.
If I put a data CD into the DVD drive
mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom
mount: No medium found
which is my problem
mount /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom
mount: No medium found
which is not surprising as there isn't anything in the drive.
If I put a data CD into the CD writer
mount /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom
mounts successfully

I didn't try to mount an audio CD. I was saying that I can neither mount a data CD nor play an audio CD. I can play an audio CD in the CD writer (although it's not connected to the sound card).
eject /dev/cdrom
opens the DVD drive.
eject /dev/cdrom1
opens the CD writer. So the mapping is as expected

Long posts with good info == good++ :)
It looks like you've done everything correctly. I'm not sure what to say... hmm....
Perhaps add "-t iso9600" to mount command, but I don't think this will solve it either. Perhaps try a variety of CDs just to see if it's just a particular burned one that's failing.
Sry I don't have a better answer, but I don't see that anything is mis-configured.

Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft
Is the current talent specc I`m using and I`m happy with it. More or less what all palas use atm.
As for threath rotation, dont simply mash buttons. Use the 969 or 696 rotation and work on it.
6 sec CD
9 sec CD
Holy Shield
I start with judgment > SotR > HS > HotR > Conc > SotR on singel target, then simply rinse and repeat.
More then 1 mob a HotR/conc is the best from my point of view.
Doing this simple thing will generate enough DPS to keep trigger happy dps behind you.
Glyphs look fine.

'Duck, stop quacking! The Free Syrian Army is going to catch you'
People in the small town of Kafranbel in north-western Syria are taking on the Assad regime with cartoons depicting their leader as, among other things, Gollum out of The Lord of the Rings. His wife's pet name for Bashar al-Assad is "Duck" and that, too, has become a source of roadside graffiti. That's the focus for this edition of Media Watch, Friday 6th July 2012.

I'm so glad you asked this question. My wife invented and patented a product specifically for long hair riders. It is called the wrapter and we have been pretty succesful the past two years selling them online and at the motorcycle shows. If anyone wants one for their wife send me a PM.
It rolls up like a condom (hair protection) her website is here Clicky
I hope you don't mind but I have a daughter, nieces and lady friends who are sports minded (from snow skiing/snow boarding to softball to hiking/fishing/rock climbing) so I've put the link on my facebook page.
They're always looking for solutions and this may just fit the bill for them.

History and Development
The Green Building Guidelines are a comprehensive resource of best practices for green building. They offer recommendations for improving indoor air quality, increasing energy and water efficiency, conserving natural resources, and planning for livable and vibrant communities.
The original New Home Guidelines were based on the Alameda County New Home Construction Green Building Guidelines, which were written collaboratively by builders, green building experts, and StopWaste.org in 2000. The Guidelines were updated in 2005 to apply statewide, address changes in Title 24, and incorporate measures from other residential green building initiatives.
This update was informed by the Green Residential Environmental Action Team (GREAT), a task force of state agencies including the California Integrated Waste Management Board, California Energy Commission, Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment, Office of the State Architect, Department of General Services, Department of Water Resources, and California Air Resources Board.
Updates to the Guidelines
Build It Green's Green Building Guidelines are revised periodically. Check back for announcements about Guideline updates. Summaries of previous Guidelines changes and updates are available for you to review. If you would like more information on previous updates, please email email@example.com.

Batista won Royal Rumble 2014 by eliminating Roman Reigns in the end. Other contestants during the match were Alberto Del Rio, Alexander Rusev, Antonio Cesaro, Big E Langston, CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, Damien Sandow, Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler, El Torito, Erick Rowan, Fandango, Goldust, Great Khali, Jack Swagger, JBL, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, Kane, Kevin Nash, Kofi Kingston, Luke Harper, R Truth, Rey Mysterio, Ryback, Seth Rollins, Sheamus and the Miz.
After defeating Dolph Ziggler in a number one contender match on Monday Night Raw, Fandango will be receiving a shot at the WWE Intercontinental Championship next week against Big E Langston. A title change is unlikely to take place, however.
Fandango defeated Dolph Ziggler in a really short TLC kickoff match. He won via pinfall after nailing the top rope leg drop. Summer Rae provided some distraction to help Fandango score the win over the former World Heavyweight Champion.
There are those that believe that Fandango is being greatly helped by the presence of Summer Rae, as management needs him around for the act while they continue to develop her into a future WWE Divas Champion.
John Cena, Alberto Del Rio, Sheamus, Mark Henry, Big Show, Fandango, Great Khali, R Truth, Bella Twins, Summer Rae, Vince McMahon, Stephanie McMahon and Triple H were all in attendance at the Wrestlemania 31 press conference in Santa Clara.
On Monday Night Raw, WWE announced that Dolph Ziggler and Fandango will be doing the kickoff match at the TLC pay per view. Neither guy has been given much of a push, and there is not a lot of history between the two of them.
WWE has appointed the Shield as their rookies of the year. Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns beat out the Wyatt Family, Fandango, Curtis Axel and Big E Langston.
While she has been receiving more ring time as of late, there are currently no plans to split up Summer Rae and Fandango, as WWE officials feel that the tandem is a successful mid card act.
WWE has been putting more of an emphasis on Fandango during the European tour because they feel that he is more popular on that continent than in the US.
WWE is no longer high on Fandango, and he is now viewed solely as a mid card act.
Tyson Kidd returned from an injury and worked a tag team match with Natalya Neidhart on Monday Night Raw against Fandango and Summer Rae.

Its the end of the expansion and summer is coming so there will be people leaving the game for a break or for good. Also because of this recruitment is hard right now.
All you can do is stick to your core values and demote people (if you use a raider rank) if they are not showing up or not coming prepared, or just kick them out of the guild if you only allow raiding members to stay.

INDIANAPOLIS – The House Ways and Means Committee voted 20-1 Thursday to require Amazon to begin collecting sales taxes on in-state purchases starting July 1 – six months ahead of when expected.
House Bill 1007 now moves to the full chamber.
The legislation says if a company has a physical nexus in the state – such as stores or distribution facilities – it has to collect the tax on the purchases.
Amazon has four warehouses, and former Gov. Mitch Daniels initially promised not to collect sales tax from them.
Then he cut an agreement to start doing so in 2014.
In the meantime, Amazon has begun collecting in other states.
Indiana's brick-and-mortar retailers have long complained that it builds in a 7 percent disadvantage on cost because people can buy online and not pay the sales tax.
The bill would affect only online retailers with a physical presence in Indiana. An overall solution still has to be handled on the federal level.
Sen. Brandt Hershman, R-Buck Creek, chairman of the Senate Tax and Fiscal Policy Committee, said he is unsure about the legislation.
There was a deal made regarding that collection, he said. We need to evaluate how making a change to that deal is perceived in the business community.
Hershman said he understands the argument on fairness and that the need for revenue is real. But he said online retailers are significant job creators as well.
The Daniels administration had estimated Amazon would likely owe the state an additional $25 million annually in state sales taxes.

Intercultural Competence – A Key Competence or a Dispensable Feature in a Globalized World?
In today's globalized world, how much importance should we attach to what is known as "Intercultural Competence"? In the light of a world that has become more and more interconnected, approaching this question has gained in importance for the Bertelsmann Siftung. Western societies that have become more heterogeneous over the years also urge us to concentrate more on obtaining intercultural competences. This need is rooted in the fact that cultural heterogeneity can bring about new opportunities. However, it can also contain potential for new conflicts.
This is why the Bertelsmann Stiftung and the Fondazione Cariplo focus on the promotion of intercultural competences. Based on a strategy paper that the Bertelsmann Stiftung drafted with the American researcher Dr. Darla Deardorff in 2006, both foundations designed a thesis paper that discusses central aspects of intercultural dialogue. The idea to write this very thesis paper was born in the course of a workshop that the Bertelsmann Stiftung arranged with experts from the United States and Germany on the 20th of January 2006. The workshop's aim was to discuss Dr. Deardoff's recent research results on the question "What is intercultural competence and how is it possible to convey it?"
We are convinced that acquiring intercultural skills is not only related to the precondition of having a fundamentally positive attitude towards intercultural situations. Additionally, in order to "deal constructively," an individual must be able to interact effectively and reasonably in intercultural situations drawing on unique abilities to act and reflect. The development of intercultural competences is complex, multidimensional and, depending on the cultural situation, it can be highly diversified. This indicates that acquiring intercultural skills is a dynamic as well as continual process of lifelong learning.
You can download the Bertelsmann Stiftung's thesis paper on the right side of this webpage. The paper is currently available for download in English. The discussion paper is meant to fuel a debate and build a foundation for further project development on cultural dialogue and the challenges of a global education.

Old Time Radio Downloads > Westerns > Have Gun Will Travel
Have Gun Will Travel was a Western Adventure radio show that started on ABC on November 1958, just a year after its television version aired. At first, the scripts for the radio show were derived from that of the television show, making the episodes in sync with one another. Later, though, the radio started making scripts on its own.
The story is about gun-for-hires, with the main character being Paladin played by John Denner. Despite the nature of the job, Paladin is in fact a principle man, as he prefer solving problems in a peaceful manner, if at all possible. He usually works for people who he believed were wronged. Although it is important that his client could pay, he also works for free for those who can't pay.
The radio show was on-air until 1960, while the television show lasted until 1963.

Hello,Glad to see that RTM is back. I've updated the translation into Albanian. It could be at 100%, if someone gives me a hint about "push syncing". I'm sorry for not being able to guess it and for not having a phone to get a clue from seeing it in action. TIA.P.S. I believe that even without that string, the translation is ready to go live.

Hi besnik,Thanks for your contribution! I've added that to our list to investigate; there are some steps on the backend that we need to take with ready translations.In the meantime, you can see push syncing demonstrated in our video; the Android app operates very similarly. The changes are "pushed" from one platform to the others when there are changes instead of each platform requesting to sync on a timed interval.Hope that helps describe push syncing!
