The site takes you through the steps you need to take to place an order. Seller and product pages may set out shipping exclusions, subsidies or additional charges. Please take care to check details and amend any errors before submitting your order. If a product has age restrictions, please don't order it unless you meet them.
Who do I contract with when I place an order?
From a legal point of view your order is deemed to be an offer by you to purchase the products, meaning the contract only becomes binding on you and the seller if the seller accepts your offer/order. Your contract will be with the seller (not us) and will be based on: (i) these terms; (ii) any additional terms on the seller's page or the product page; and (iii) the terms of your email confirmation.
Your order isn't deemed accepted by the seller until we (acting as their commercial agent) have sent you an email order confirmation. If there's a conflict or inconsistency between these terms and that email confirmation, or the seller's or product page, these terms prevail.
Remember that both the seller's and product pages will set out key information you need to be aware of before placing your order (so before entering intoyour contract) including information about: the characteristics of the product; the identity of the seller; the seller's address, place of business and contact information; any restrictions on delivery; and details of the price, delivery and payment. Please read this carefully before placing your order
We may refuse to process a transaction for any reason or refuse service to anyone at any time at our sole discretion. We'll not be liable to you or any third party by reason of any such refusal, or by reason of unwinding or suspending a transaction after processing has begun.
Our site contains a large number of products. It's always possible that despite best efforts, some may be incorrectly priced. If an error in pricing is discovered we or the seller will contact you to let you know and give you the option of continuing to purchase the product at the correct price or cancelling your order. We'll not process your order until we've heard from you. If we're can't contact you using the details you provided we'll treat your order as cancelled and notify you in writing. Please note if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we don't have to provide the products to you at the incorrect price.
What if the product I've ordered isn't available?
If your seller can't provide a product (e.g. it's no longer in stock or available, or because of an error in the pricing) we'll inform you as soon as we're able to and your order won't be progressed. If you've already paid for the product, you'll be refunded as soon as possible. See our Returns Policy for more information.

That is indeed the way it works on live. Our holy pally was soaking and standing in front of the ranged dps not stacked on the tank and he still soaked
We tank Heroic Morchok ten man with two healers on each side. We use a DK tank for the side Korchok (or whatever his name is) is on, and a Warrior tank on the side Morchok is on. Left side, respectively facing the boss as you start the encounter before the split is the easier side, as he doesn't spawn crystals as fast, so there is less moving around. You generall want more ranged than melee to split for the crystals. We use a rogue on one side and a DK who pops into blood presence for double stomp/Paladin for the harder side. We have the side tanking Morchok take the first crystal spawn, and have the other side drag Korchok away quickly to get into position before his crystals start spawning. Having /range on and setting it to 20yds is safe (25 yards is not an option/28 however is to far) so ranged knows to be in the 25 yard range after stacking on crystals.
Another mechanic that can be used if a DK dps is taking double stomps is channeling AotD after the stomp for the dmg reduction while being healed back up.
Also, the DK tank has the 4 piece Vampiric Blood raid heal boost/health boost used for after double stomps if the DK/Pally is too low on health. If the Warrior tank has the 4 piece he has an armor boost CD for raid/Druids have healing boosts on their 4 pieces as well.
Other than that make sure you have the ability to battle rez on both sides and that heroism is popped simultaneously on both sides when called for (generally after the Earthen Vortex is over right around 20% health left on boss), or it will not reach both sides.
Heads I lose, tails I lose? Quick, give that coin to one of those annoying street performers.
Stomp appears to ignore armour.
[20:38:19.445] Morchok Stomp <Holy Paladin> 56001 (A: 10858) = Total of 66859
[20:38:19.445] Morchok Stomp <Resto Druid> 77275 (A: 8757) = Total of 86023
[20:38:32.705] Morchok Stomp <Elemental Shaman> 67950 (A: 2888) = Total of 70838
[20:38:32.705] Morchok Stomp <Resto Druid> 86032 = Total of 86032
[20:38:32.705] Morchok Stomp <Frost DK> 63355 (A: 12262) = Total of 75617
Clearly the amount of armor you have affects the amount of damage you take (holy paladin has more armor than the ele shaman who has more armor than the frost dk who has more armor than the resto druid).
Kohcrom's stomp might do less damage than Morchok's though...
[20:27:47.656] Kohcrom Stomp resto druid 77665
[20:27:47.656] Kohcrom Stomp ret pala 68239
[20:27:47.656] Kohcrom Stomp prot pala 104397 -- probably had a 20% cooldown up
[20:27:47.656] Kohcrom Stomp moonkin 65861
[20:27:47.656] Kohcrom Stomp dk in blood spec 57629 (A: 22068) -- probably had a cooldown running
moonkin has similar armor to a ret pala, both have more armor than a resto druid.
It is entirely possible for Morchock to throw his crystal outside the invisible boundries of the raid, thus making impossible to get close enough to neutralise the crystal explosion.
I actually need some advice/help. My guild is starting on Morchock 10 man heroic. I am a rogue soaker with a bear tank. We had nothing but wipes. My problem is when the stomp would go out I would fient before and still get one shotted. The raid was blameing me for our failures but I was doing everything I was suppost to and ever thing I have read and watched upon doing the fight. Can anyone explain possible reasons to why I died? Even after the feint was active.
Using feint will easily let you survive the stomp soak, so possible reasons for your deaths:
- You didn't actually feint (fat-fingered, on cooldown, not enough energy, etc)
- You feinted for Morchok's stomp but you were on Kochrom
- You feinted too late and the spell did not go off in time due to latency
- You somehow pulled aggro and it wasn't stomp that killed you
Do you have a world of logs link to see what actually happened?
Last edited by Oratory; 04-05-2012 at 11:36 AM.
I actually feint right at the half way of the cast bar when he casts stomp should I do it earlier?
No world of logs actually. I push the fient button about half way from casting stomp.
If only the rogue is dying, its probably something to do with feint, or maybe he has a crystal beam on him as well? (a typical thing i see in normal mode pugs i do with my alt is people ignoring the crystals completely, and this would likely prove fatal in even a nerfec heroic morchok)
Either way it seems a bit odd, our rogue hardly needs to feint since the nerfs came out, he wont die with just a stomp anymore.
The rRogue probably will die if he and the bear 2 man the stomp, not so sure bout the bear. stomp is 750k damage split by the number of peeps in it, with the tank and his hand holder taking double damage. With just 2 peeps soaking that kinda cancels out. With the 15% nerf we're talking a 637.5k hit. Take 10% off for demo roar is 573.75k, as a Rogue I get maybe 35% damage reduction from armour, thats a 373k hit without Feint. With Feint, assuming you don't have Enveloping Shadows (No PVE rogue should) thats 186.5k hit. The Bear on the other hand eats the same 573.75k hit, but he has 18% dmage reduction in Bear Form taking it down to a 470.27k, and then his armour which I guesstimate is at least 60% damage reduction, which would take it down to a 188k hit. So about the same damage on each. I haven't been watching my healthpool inside DS as a rogue, But i think 186k would prolly be a one shot. As a Bear you would likely survive unless your undergeared for the HC. I think you have 190k in 378 gear fully buffed...maybe not, I don't know, I don't play bears at end game.
I think Theotherone has it sussed, you want 5 people soaking each stomp.and i don't think you have that. We had alot of problems with our OT and the stomps/crystal timing. the easiest way i had of explaining it to him was, everyone run at the crystals as soon as their thrown out. Your 3 crystal soakers should be hugging the crystal, the tank should be a few yards away, prefferaby facing the crystal with he boss in between, the other crystal soaker should be closest to the tank andd be so close to the bosses but you could kiss the tank through his legs. as long as everyone's moving its fine, if peeps are just standing their Deepsing then your screwed either way.

One of the reasons recently given by members of the local advisory committee to the responsible authorities for withholding much-needed subsidies to the Africa film festival in my home town was the question whether enough films were available. Yeh. Here are another ten films we'll be looking out for.

Associated Press
SOUK AL-JUMMA, Tunisia (AP) -- On the day he chose to die, Adel Khedri woke up at 6:30 a.m., took his black backpack and headed down to the busy boulevard where he worked as a cigarette peddler.
It was the last in a series of odd jobs that had defined his hand-to-mouth existence for almost nine years. He couldn't afford to pay bribes to get hired as a driver or a guard. The Tunisian army didn't need him. There were few factory jobs. And the owner at a fast food restaurant in neighboring Libya had cheated him out of wages as a dishwasher.
So on March 12, three weeks after his 27th birthday, Adel left the dirty room he shared with his older brother in a Tunis slum for the tree-lined Avenue Habib Bourguiba, once the stage for the first of the Arab Spring uprisings.
He stopped in front of the art deco Municipal Theater. He poured gasoline over his body. Then he set himself on fire.
Adel died 19 hours later. One of his last words to a doctor at the burn center was "faddit" - slang for "fed up."
Adel is one of 178 people in Tunisia who have set themselves on fire since the self-immolation two years ago of another high school dropout-turned-street vendor launched the Arab Spring.
These two book-ends of a revolution that toppled four Arab dictators show how little has changed in between for millions of jobless, hopeless 20-somethings across the Middle East and North Africa. The difficulty of finding a job, which helped spark the unrest, is now a prescription for continued turmoil.
Youth unemployment worldwide is up to about 12.3 percent, in part because of the global financial crisis that began five years ago. But some areas of the Middle East and North Africa suffer from more than twice that rate, because of stubborn labor market problems compounded by the turmoil of the Arab Spring.
And the future looks even worse. In the Middle East, youth unemployment is expected to rise from 27.7 percent in 2011 to 30 percent in 2018, the International Labor Organization reported this week. In North Africa, a slight increase is expected, from 23.3 percent to 23.9 percent.
Economists say fixing the problem will require broad and deep changes, such as overhauling education, slashing bloated public sectors and encouraging entrepreneurship.
"There is no quick solution that will address all the aspirations of young people looking for jobs now," said Masood Ahmed, head of the International Monetary Fund for the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).
In the meantime, the numbers add up to a generation in trouble.
In Tunisia, 143 of the people who lit themselves aflame over the past two years, many of them unemployed, have died. Similar self-immolations have been reported in Algeria, Egypt, Morocco, Jordan, Bahrain and Lebanon, though in smaller numbers.
A month after Adel's death, five of the 20 beds at the Ben Arous burn center in Tunis held people who had set themselves on fire, including two young men newly arrived from the poor provincial towns of Kasserine and Ben Guerdane. Self-immolations make up about 25 percent of admissions, according to Dr. Amen Allah Messaadi, the center's trauma chief. Some victims suffer from mental problems, but most are just like Adel -- unemployed high-school dropouts in their 20s.
The Associated Press pieced together Adel's story from interviews with two dozen people, including his family and friends; waiters, a lawyer and a witness at the scene; a doctor and a psychiatrist at the burn center, and local officials, including a school principal. The AP also looked at photos from the scene.
Adel's life of struggle was in some ways a copy of that of his father, Habib.
Born in Souk al-Jumma, about 150 kilometers (93 miles) west of Tunis, Habib went to the capital as a young man to find work in day labor. In January 1978, he was wounded by gunfire in the left shoulder during a government crackdown on anti-poverty protests.
In 1980, Habib married his hometown cousin, Latifa. The couple started out in a tiny room in Tunis, just like the one Adel and his 29-year-old brother Issam were to share later.
Several years later, the Khedris got a two-room concrete shack in Souk al-Jumma as part of a housing program by the government of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, the longtime authoritarian leader of Tunisia. Latifa stayed in the village with Issam and Adel. Habib returned to Tunis to work.

Unfortunately with the stun on opener you aren't generating as much rage. There's no way shockwave on open is better than sb and cleaving til sb is over.. You just won't have as much rage...
I. Am. Warrior.
Is it me or does every1 sound a bit whiney?????
but you are not stunning as an opener, you charge with bloodrage, thats a ton of rage right there, you get your white hits, you TC, so thats already a global of being hit before you shockwave, it takes a second or to to make sure everything is lined up right and will be hit with shockwave, you are looking at about 3 seconds into the pull before you shockwave, and when shockwave ends TC will be back up, TC as soon as the cooldown is over and shield block as soon as the stun is over, i dont even use zerker rage and i am never rage starved.
Also the Heroic throw , what is that all about, is it something we get when we hit 80, is it what we'll be using to start pulls,,,would like some1 who has used it to detail it?
yes it is a new ability we get in wrath for pulling, it hits for about 500 or so in tanking gear, this TG warrior crit a rat for 4K with it was kinda amusing in this naxx stream.
its basically so you do not have to carry ammo around anymore if you are not using a throwing weapon
I. Am. Warrior.
Thanks Cider for the pulling vid! I have been a long time Pally tank and am just now trying out warrior tanking. I found this video extremely helpful in learning the different pulling options a warrior tank has at their disposal.
Looked pretty good, but you were starting to ramble a bit.... and the jumping drove me crazy.
On a different note, @ people looking for a mod to let them know when something procs: I use power aura. I used to use it mostly for PVP, but w/ warbringer and SnB, it helps me manage my CD's a lil bit more effectively.
If the tank dies, it's the healer's fault. If the healer dies, it's the tank's fault. If the dps dies, it's their own damn fault!
Gag Order - Spell - World of Warcraft .
I would also like to know what your UI/Addons are, that text thing for your cooldowns looks cool as hell
I really can't see glyphing for charge when the synergy between Glyph of Revenge, Glyph of Heroic Strike, and the Incite talent is so OP right now.

Players continue to praise the Pawn Shop Series for evoking the more eccentric Fender creations of the mid-'60s to mid-'70s while delivering thoroughly modern sound and quality with a wealth of various Fender elements. New for 2013, the Pawn Shop Series introduces yet another pleasingly unconventional assortment of "guitars that never were but should have been," in which new models take the stage and long-vanished classics return in modern form.
With a few modern touches, the Pawn Shop Super-Sonic™ guitar resurrects an unusual, short-lived and increasingly collectible ancestor of the late 1990s, the Squier® Vista Series Super-Sonic guitar. Very little about the Pawn Shop Super-Sonic isn't highly distinctive—from its diminutive offset "reverse" body (resembling an upside-down Jazzmaster® or Jaguar® guitar) and upside-down headstock to its short scale (24") and dual canted Atomic™ humbucking pickups (only the bridge pickup was canted on the original Squier models). Then there are the controls—neck pickup volume and bridge pickup volume only (no tone control), which are reverse-wired like the Squier original, meaning that the bridge pickup volume is the one closest to the bridge and the neck pickup volume is the one farthest from it.
Other features include a "C"-shaped maple neck with "bullet"-style truss rod, 9.5"-radius rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets, three-way toggle pickup switching and dual Jazz Bass control knobs, three-ply parchment pickguard, vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge, vintage-style tuners and new Super-Sonic four-bolt neck plate.

I alwas looked for a Fender guitar with a reverse headstock. When I saw that Fender was bringing out a new version of that old Squier model I soon bought one in dark metal flake from a huge german Music store. The look of the guitar is superb (the grey flake finish, the reverse headstock, the reverse body). The two humbuckers have a strong killer tone. Absolutely a powerful guitar. The only thing I criticize is the circumstance that you won't get a warm tone from the guitar. In terms of the sound the guitar is limited but if you want a guitar with a heavy, strong and powerful tone - the guitar is right for you.

Not to many reviews around for this beauty, had it for around a month now, it's absolutely excellent, the atomic humbuckers really live up to their name and make the guitar perfect for rock or grunge music but also great for twangy clean sounds. The guitar is very playable and easy to pick up. My only issue with this guitar is that I think the pickup switch is a little bit too close to where one's arm would be going, making it easy to accidentally hit. The other issue is one every few hours of playing I'd get the bottom (higher pitched) E string caught behind the pickup but honestly that does not change my very high view of this guitar. It is a very aesthetically pleasing guitar, flashy but not pretentious, at first I thought the flake look was a bit cringe worthy but in fact it is a very nice colour, the upside down look of the guitar is a pretty amazing view. I previously had a Squier vintage modified Jazzmaster which I never wanted to change because of how great the tone was, but after finding this guitar I was blown away by the sound and look of the thing. I highly recommend to anyone planning to play music to the likes of Nirvana or Soundgarden and other Rock or Grunge music. I also recommend buying this guitar with a fuzz pedal for instance Electro Harmonix's PI Big Muff, as the guitar and fuzz pedals work like bread and butter. Honestly buy this guitar, it is what I always imagined an edgy Jaguar to be like. I hope your experiences are as good as mine with this guitar or any other.

I remember the original Squier Vista series Super-sonics and falling in love with the quirky looks and the sparkly finishes. I played a white one for a little while and my initial thoughts at the time were that I would probably rewire it to have a single volume and a tone control. I loved the playability and enjoyed how spritely my fingers felt on the shorter 24 inch scale.
I sat down in a local music shop to try this latest Fender version with the same joy at the design of this instrument. I also thought that I would have the same reservations about the 2 volume controls. Now, you have to consider that about 12 years has past since I tried the originals, and my musical 'ear' has developed (whether for the better is not for me to say!). I was plugged in to a Pro Junior, and so as not to upset the entire shop the volume was set to about 2. Of course, I was initially flummoxed by the warmer tones coming from the guitar when I had the pickup selector in the down position, until I remembered that the switched was wired back to front! Lovely flutey tones from the neck pickup, and ideal for Gilmour clean melodies with the volume backed off just a little. Switch to the bridge pickup where i expected the lack of a tone control to be a problem and all I found was a full-bodied tone with a nice bit of bite, especially when digging in a little. I play in a band that covers quite a wide range of tunes, so I need some flexibility in my guitars. Setting the pickup selector to the mid position and tweaking the volumes to taste kept me more than amused! In fact instead of worrying about whether I'd need a tone control, my thoughts started to wonder whether I would really need the pickup selector, and just select my tones using the volume controls!
I have a large family and therefore my guitar related purchases have to be seriously considered, and then saved up for. The sparkly, versatile little tone machine has just jumped to the top of my shopping list!

For 32 years, the Regional Design Annual has sliced up American design into discernable shapes and parceled them out by region. We rely on our judges to make the final cuts, and this time we had help from Sarah Gephart (MGMT. Design), Sagi Haviv (Chermayeff & Geismar), Nicole Jacek (Karlssonwilker), Jason Kernevich and Dustin Summers (the Heads of State), Renda Morton (The New York Times), and Emily Oberman (Pentagram).
This year, to further distinguish each region, we turned to our resident type experts, Paul Shaw and Stephen Coles, to select six representative typefaces released in the United States this year. Each region is set in one of the faces, and they also became the basis for illustrations by Outpost LA (Far West), Armin Vit (Southwest), Rick Valicenti/3st (Midwest), IAAH—I Am Always Hungry (South), Jennifer Lucey-Brzoza (East), and OCD (New York City). Sharp design awaits—watch your fingers.

What are the higher heat loss areas of the body and how can I reduce heat loss in those areas?
My original answer to this question sparked a surprisingly intense debate, so I'm rewriting it to clarify a few points and offer a more holistic answer.
Let me start by saying that every square inch of skin on the human body is capable of allowing heat to escape. That is to say, if you wear a jacket with no pants, your legs will lose more heat than your torso -- but if you wear pants with no jacket, your torso will lose more heat than your legs. Both areas are capable of losing heat -- and will do so more quickly when exposed. Therefore, any part of your body that's more exposed to the cold than another part has the potential to lose more heat than other than parts that are less exposed.
This is fairly obvious, but I mention it for completeness' sake. This generally means that you should try to cover yourself as much as possible, especially larger skin surfaces like the torso.
However, the point that I think the OP is trying to get at is that -- all else being equal -- every square inch of exposed human skin does NOT lose heat at the same rate. That is to say, some areas of skin lose heat faster than others. If you were to stand in the cold totally naked, some parts of you would lose heat more quickly than others. This is an indisputable, biological fact. Allow me to explain:
Human blood serves many functions -- one of which is thermoregulation. As an evolutionary adaption, humans have areas on their body that are especially suited for releasing heat, in order to cool us off when we get too hot. In these areas, there is a high volume of blood flow, and that blood passes very close to the skin. These areas are:
In these areas, there is a lot of blood flowing around, and the skin is fairly thin, allowing heat to escape from the blood more quickly than in other areas.
Therefore, if you are in a desperate survival situation where you risk hypothermia, these are the areas of the body you should focus on keeping the warmest.
Armpits are fairly easy to keep warm, just keep your elbows down and they'll be insulated by your torso and upper arm.
It's important to keep warm, dry underwear in order to keep your groin warm as well.
And yes, YOU SHOULD WEAR A HAT. While you might not lose the "majority" of body heat through your head, it is one of the areas of skin that loses heat most quickly and it should be one of the main things you focus on keeping warm.
The extremities are also important to keep warm. I have friends that go out jogging in the winter wearing shorts and a t-shirt. They don a warm beanie and gloves right before they go out, and those are all it takes to keep them warm in freezing temperatures.
In summary: If you have clothes or ways to protect every inch of skin on your body, you should do that. I thought this was basic common sense, but people were squabbling so I'll reiterate.
However, if you only have limited means of protection and you need to focus on warming only a small area of your body, you're best off focusing on the four areas listed above.
It's probably worth pointing out that a lot of people reading this question may be thinking along the (commonly quoted) line that about 80% of body heat is lost through the head - which is much more of a myth than people realise (See here for details.) From what I remember, it was an experiment done with people fully kitted out apart from the fact that they weren't wearing anything on their heads... and, somewhat unsurprisingly, most of the body heat lost in this scenario was from the head.
Of course, it is important to keep the head wrapped up, but it's equally important to keep other parts warm - especially the torso. Even though extremities may feel colder, this is because your body is reserving the heat for its vitals and cutting it off more to things such as your hands and feet. Warm up the core of your body and it'll start warming your extremities as a result!
In terms of how to reduce heat loss in those areas, it's generally as simple as wrapping up as warm as you feasibly can (and as much as is appropriate for the conditions. Obviously full arctic gear isn't required for a damp autumnal day!)
In short, wrap up as best you can all over, but it's especially important on the torso. In practice though, it shouldn't come down to deciding what to wrap up in particular - if it's cold, wrap up as best you can all over!
Heat loss can occur from anywhere on the body through a number of processes:
Other factors:
Combat heat loss by:
As for specific, high heat loss, areas of the body, it depends:
In general, the high heat loss areas will be those not adequately protected from the various mechanisms of heat loss prevalent to the situation you are in:
here is a pictorial answer to try and figure this out! I believe this is a un-clothed male under a thermal camera (SFW)
Lots of ways to reduce heat loss: Wear a hat scarf and gloves as these keep the most important parts of your body warm. Wear warm knickers (even if you're a guy). You can get fleecy knickers but not fleecy pants. Also, you can huddle, like penguins as it reduces your surface area and conserves bodyheat.
While I personally disagree to other answers, I'd like to make a point. According to my understanding an uncovered head will loose a lot of heat. Put a hat on and no top and see what happens. I'm a hunter and when I sit, I find the cold area are the shoulders, kidney and wrist.
To answer the question directly, the three areas that lose heat the fastest are actually:
This is why those are the areas that naturally grow the most hair on human bodies. It's an evolutionary adaption to keep us warm. In those areas, there is a lot of blood flowing and it passes very close to the outer layer of skin, allowing it to cool of more rapidly and lower our body's temperature. It's all of the blood rushing around your skull, into your legs, or into your arms, respectively.
Covering your head is a no brainer. As others have mentioned and most people already know, the head it where you lose most of your body heat, so wearing a dry, windproof hat with a lot of loft is always a smart idea if you're cold.
The groin and the armpits are a bit more tricky. If you're dressed according to normal human social standards, you'll probably be fine. But if, for some reason, you're out in the cold with little or no clothing, those are the areas to focus on the most.
Keep your arms tight at your sides and cover your groin with your hands. Not only is that our natural reaction to the whole "being naked" thing, it also happens to be the best way to stay warm with no clothes on!

Knights of Tranquility was formed in August 2005 on the Silver Hand server, with the belief that raiding should be a mature, fun, social experience. Our guild caters to older people with limited time to play, but who want to see content. We expect our guild members to be prepared for content, and to put forth their best effort, but we always remain respectful of the people behind the characters. We moved to The Scryers server in January 2007 in pursuit of a closer, more tight-knit server community.
We are a group of fun-loving, hardworking individuals who raid to see new content, without spending 5 days a week raiding. We have a focused and dedicated raid core, but we don't treat raiding like a second job. Most of our players are over the age of 30 and have families/jobs, and we emphasize a positive, constructive approach towards improving gameplay. Our raid times are between 7:30 p.m.-10:30 p.m. PST Monday, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.
Our approach to raiding is casual in the sense that we are always respectful of our members, and our member's time. We understand if people occasionally have to miss raids due to RL obligations. We never resort to insults or obscene language as a means of correcting mistakes. That being said, we do expect that people show up to raids that they sign up for, and are committed to putting forth their best effort. Our members often have responsibilities that limit the amount of time they have to play, so we make the best use of that time.

I'm thinking of going for real quality high resolution by getting a Sony Alpha 77 and have seen one advertised in Spain for 1400 euros with the 18-55mm lens OR with another lens - 16-50mm for 1900 euros.
Can anyone tell me why there is such a massive price difference between the two lenses..The Sony brochure, Sony 'make.believe' which the shop gave me, on which the shop wrote the prices in biro, doesn't specify any more about the lenses for the A77 that makes much sense to me. I'm a beginner on the technical side as well which doesn't help.. Did the shop just pluck prices out of the sky or is there a real reason for such a big difference in price between the two?
Does anyone also know of other sources to buy this camera as the shop on this website via WDC doesn't deal with customers not in UK and the only other place I can now see them is Amazon USA
Thanks in advance for any help !

BALTIMORE (AP) - A false fire alarm at Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport resulted in the shutdown of the baggage area for Southwest Airlines and the delay of some flights.
The Baltimore Sun ( http://bsun.md/U5wzHE) reports the false alarm happened Sunday morning. Authorities determined there was no fire on the conveyor belt system that transports baggage.
A spokeswoman for Southwest, Katie McDonald, says flights were held in order to ensure travelers and baggage got on the same plane.

Via Trey Kerby, the above mournful tweet, from J.R. Smith, the web designer (and, as his Twitter bio puts it, "NOT A BASKETBALL PLAYER"). If you're wondering how the other J.R. Smith can tell basketball season has started up, well, social media really has a way of putting people in touch with their favorite celebrities (approximately):
@jrsmith literally just flew to foul @tonyallen— Jonathan Montgomery (@JonMa_G) November 17, 2012

@jrsmith getting busy— Edino Steele (@EdinoSteele) November 14, 2012
Those are all retweets from @jrsmith, who obviously gets a kick out of the cases of mistaken identity. The Twitter handle belonging to J.R. Smith, the basketball player, is @TheRealJRSmith, which raises some thorny ontological questions—both of the J.R. Smiths have to be considered equally "real," right? Is the more famous J.R. Smith any more human? Any more manifest in our perceptual world? Any better at basketball? Oh, well, that last one, yeah. Definitely.
Our advice to the fake J.R. Smith, as it would be to anyone: get more neck tattoos, and just start acting like the basketball-playing J.R. Smith. It's much easier to just go with it.

I like to follow a theme if I can, but ice cutting is quite a challenge. So instead I have become a 'non-themer' this week with something about the war poet, Rupert Brooke.

I hope I have broken the ice with this.

With the unrest in Egypt, I wanted show vintage photos and some more recent ones. . . so I guess I'm a non-theme person.

That postcard is amazing. I have been to Robin Hood park in Keene as I live only two hours from there. Little did I know that an ice harvesting operation existed there. Thanks for sharing!

- Pat transplanted to MN said...
I have nothing about ice fishing nor ice hauling to follow such a theme, but I do have a couple old photos which can concoct all sorts of tales...I think I will saunter along.....aimlessly as I agree we don't do that near enough.
- 29 January 2011 02:13

I am themeless today, but I like the idea. I might try for it in the future. Bob certainly did an impressive job with it this week!

- Karen S. said...
Oh thank goodness about being able to not follow a theme...other than sepia, because I've had great fun randomly picking things...although I may give it a try if your post looks like something I could follow....but ice and cold and brrr...is for sure not a good topic for now...hopefully spring is coming! I like this photo though...they look so determined!

Can not think of a ice picture in my photo collection. Sharing a picture of my great grand uncle.
My son wanted to go ice fishing today but too much snow to safely travel up the north shore today.

No pictures of ice or snow that I have found so far in my box of photos, so for my first Sepia Saturday Post I will to go with something else :)

The ice cutting photo is great and ties in with my own father's experiences as described to me by his half-sister, I chose to stay inside today with my photos. Happy Saturday!

I'm Back! Hurray!!! I might even have a theme next week!

As close as my post will get to a theme is the possible coldness that ran through the lives of the people I have been showing for the past week. Or perhaps I should simply say it's a cold case, an unsolved mystery.

Good, I managed to post on time! I've been perusing a box of my late in-laws photos and came across these, which of course, lead to me remembering stories ...

I did have an icy photograph but decided to do one of a family gathering on a summer day instead.

We didn't have much ice where my family lived, but we had lots of water. It's been a while, and I'm glad to be back. Looking forward to reading all the posts.

I wasn't going to post because I missed Saturday, but your photo inspired me to post the photos of my family at my great uncle's logging camp from 1947. Not quite as cold, but difficult work just the same. Sepia Sunday today. :-)
Thanks for the inspiration!

Lyapunov: Piano Concertos
Studio Master: CDA67326 Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads available
Movement 1: Allegro con brio
Movement 2: Adagio non tanto
Movement 3: Allegro moderato e maestoso
Movement 4: Adagio non tanto
Movement 5: Allegro con brio
The photograph demonstrates Balakirev's approval of the concerto, for which he felt a close affinity, as well he might since, as with the symphony but not to the same extent, he had a hand in its composition. Even after the score had been copied out in readiness for its first performance Balakirev could not resist last-minute emendations, albeit very minor ones: 'It was necessary to alter one or two passages where the harmonies did not agree at the end', he wrote to Lyapunov. During the course of composition, Lyapunov had told Balakirev that he was having difficulties with the slow movement. These may have been caused by Balakirev's view that there should never be the slightest sign of sentimentality in such movements. Balakirev advised that he should look at the concertos of Chopin, the Larghetto of Henselt's Piano Concerto in F minor and the Andante movement of Arensky's concerto, also in F minor. Balakirev felt that Lyapunov's slow movement should be in a key which contrasted with E flat minor, and suggested B major or D major. Lyapunov chose D major, but he decided that it should be incorporated in a cyclic concerto in one movement, like Liszt's Second Concerto and, nearer to home, Rimsky-Korsakov's Piano Concerto, which is not only in one movement but is based on metamorphoses of a single melody – a folk tune selected from Balakirev's 1866 collection. Balakirev was favourably disposed towards this concerto and had conducted its first performance early in 1884. It was published in 1886, just before Lyapunov started work on his concerto. Moreover, in the recapitulation of Lyapunov's concerto, the initial order of the subjects is reversed, as in the third and fifth piano concertos of Anton Rubinstein. But the most overwhelming impression made by the concerto is that it is imbued with the music of the first and second symphonies of Borodin: the way the subjects are contrasted and some of the 'heroic' materials, including Lyapunov's use of the brass in his recapitulation, are derived from Borodin's Second Symphony; and, even more importantly, the overall imprint of the First Symphony in E flat major (with a structurally vital introduction in E flat minor) is unmistakable. This symphony had been composed under the guidance of Balakirev, who conducted its première early in 1869 and who will have been happy to help the young Lyapunov to compose a concerto in a similar mould.
But all these influences and models do not prevent Lyapunov's concerto from being a work of substantial merit, demonstrating the increasing maturity of his creative powers. The structure which emerged from his careful consideration of all the possibilities ideally suits the contents of the concerto. The opening Allegro con brio, in triple time, starts with an initial plain octave 'call to arms' in E flat minor (loud, arresting and abrasive) followed immediately by a melody with chordal accompaniment which modulates to the relative major key of G flat, with some cross-rhythms à la Schumann (smooth, tender and tentative). Lyapunov bases his first and third sections on these motifs, which are extended and transformed in many different ways. The middle Adagio non tanto section, in D major as we have seen, consisting of the contents of the sandwich, is beautiful without being maudlin and fits well between the outer layers; it recurs most enticingly towards the end, and in the coda all the themes are juggled with great dexterity. This is altogether much too good a concerto to have been neglected for so long. It is relatively short, and could easily be combined in a single concert programme with Rimsky-Korsakov's concerto, also short, or with Lyapunov's own Rhapsody on Ukrainian Themes.

This is my first Fender instrument and the hype that Fender receives at my music school was exceeded by this bass. The first plus from my old Epiphone was the vertical playing was effortless even though this is a five string. The only feature that I am in the middle on is the B string is a little loose, and I know this is normal and it is tighter than other B strings that I have played, I just wish it was a little tighter. This is only a minor aspect of this bass and overall it is the best instrument that I have ever played.

The neck is incredibly well crafted. It is as fast as you can play it and will never let you down. You will have it for life and won't find anything like it on the market. If you want an upgrade for that bass or if standard issue is not enough for you, go Fender custom shop, but don't leave that web site at any cost! You can't go wrong with an American Fender. I have been playing bass for 16 years now and that bass is my best friend.
1- The sound can go from very deep velvet with smooth reaction to strong attack nu-metal tone. You can play whatever style you want with it.
2- Features are simple (one volume per pickup and one tone knob) and you won't be able to get a bad tone out of it.
3- I use that bass for studio sessions all the time. The output level is perfect and the only noize you will hear is your rocking frenzy bass slap!
4- On stage, it is just incredible!! You can slap it, pop it, finger it or pick it and it will deliver all the time!!! That bass responds well to all right hand techniques. It is also very sturdy. Don't worry, you won't break it!!
5- Jazz Bass VS Precision? The precision sounds like a sledgehammer. The Jazz Bass sounds like a katana blade! Sharp and precise. I recommand getting both of them, but if you have only one bass to buy, go for the Jazz. If you crank up both pickups to 11, you will get a sound close to the Precision's and still have a bit more flexibility.
6- The fifth string sounds nice for rock and metal. Perfect to get the low 5th from the note you play on the E string, but unless you are playing heavy metal or dirty stuff, don't play it open.
yanerochy owns this item
Well this is my dream bass. The tone is amazing but it does have some questionable things.
1- three pieces body, c'mon for the price i expect a one piece body
2- bad nut height, too high from factory
3- I can't lower the action of this bass. I have the saddles all the way down, and I set up my basses myself. I have a Sterling Sub ray 5, and the setup on that bass is so low, but in the Fender the setup is middle to hi.
4- Can't intonate the 5 string. I tried with different strings and tiles, not one works.
Except for that it's an amazing instrument. I love it.
Sorry for my bad English I am from Argentina.

This shot of the Red Hot Chili Peppers was taken in Hamburg, Germany in 1992. I photographed the band while on an assignment for Vox magazine, a monthly music publication in competition with Q Magazine and now sadly defunct.
Henry Rollins, who was the support act that night, claimed his band blew the Chili Peppers off stage.
The band's energy is infectious and you get caught up in the rhythm while taking pictures – such great fun. Each time you have to stop to load a new film, it feels like a rude interruption.
