If you're planning a career as a graphic artist, you need to master Adobe Illustrator CS5—and this course will give you the skills you need to use this powerful software tool with confidence.
Adobe Illustrator is the industry standard for creating vector images you can resize to fit on anything from a dome to a billboard. And if you think of vector graphics as hard-edged and sharp, think again—because you can now create stunning blends, brushstrokes, and shading effects.
In addition, Illustrator is the program of choice for drawing logos and designing type effects, and it's perfect for creating graphics for Flash sites. It's also easy to move designs back and forth between Photoshop and Illustrator to take advantage of the strengths of both programs.
In this course, you'll learn how to use a wide range of tools in Adobe Illustrator CS5. For instance, you'll explore the enhanced Recolor Artwork feature, which helps you choose a harmonious color scheme for your image and completely alter the color palette of any image with just a few clicks. You'll also see how the redesigned Gradient tool makes it easier to adjust colors directly on an image. You can even paint brushstrokes on your canvas, using brushes that look and work like the bristle brushes from an art supply store.
In addition, you'll learn how to draw and trace with the Pen tool and how to fine-tune the contours of any line. You'll also discover how to work with color, use shortcuts for applying color to images, and add special effects such as 3D to your drawings.
This course is designed to let you work at your own level, whether you're a beginner or looking to refresh your Illustrator skills. By the end of these lessons, you'll be a master at using this elegant tool to further your career and express your own creativity.

FAQs About the Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program for Submission in Years 2011, 2012 and 2013 (NSF 11-038)
PECASE Press Releases, Photos and Award Lists
CAREER Directorate and Division Contacts:
A revised version of the NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG) (NSF 15-1), is
effective for proposals submitted, or due, on or after December 26, 2014. The PAPPG is consistent
with, and, implements the new Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit
Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance) (2 CFR � 200). Please be advised that
the guidelines contained in NSF 15-1 apply to proposals submitted in response to this
funding opportunity.

CAREER: The Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program is a Foundation-wide activity that offers the National Science Foundation's most prestigious awards in support of junior faculty who exemplify the role of teacher-scholars through outstanding research, excellent education and the integration of education and research within the context of the mission of their organizations. Such activities should build a firm foundation for a lifetime of leadership in integrating education and research. NSF encourages submission of CAREER proposals from junior faculty members at all CAREER-eligible organizations and especially encourages women, members of underrepresented minority groups, and persons with disabilities to apply.
PECASE: Each year NSF selects nominees for the Presidential Early Career Awards for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) from among the most meritorious recent CAREER awardees. Selection for this award is based on two important criteria:� 1) innovative research at the frontiers of science and technology that is relevant to the mission of the sponsoring organization or agency, and 2) community service demonstrated through scientific leadership, education or community outreach. These awards foster innovative developments in science and technology, increase awareness of careers in science and engineering, give recognition to the scientific missions of the participating agencies, enhance connections between fundamental research and national goals, and highlight the importance of science and technology for the Nation�s future. Individuals cannot apply for PECASE. These awards are initiated by the participating federal agencies. At NSF, up to twenty nominees for this award are selected each year from among the PECASE-eligible CAREER awardees who are most likely to become the leaders of academic research and education in the twenty-first century. The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy makes the final selection and announcement of the awardees.

I didn't know how this could get better!!!!!! Except if I went on the stage and was picked to go on it. : ) She really rocked our socks!!! I wish I can go to her concert on August 22nd, 2009 in Atlantic City. I want to go with my mom and my little sister. It would rock!!!

It was in San Diego she was opening for the Jonas Brothers. I loved it. You could see just by standing up. But if you wanted a perfect view you had stand up on the chairs. It was the best night EVER. Only Con is that they took away everybody's posters! <3
[9 of 12 customers found this review helpful]
I saw on The Roxy's Website that the Jonas Brothers where at the concert. I never actually saw them, or any of the other people that I've heard where there. The great thing about that venue was that they allow cameras, so I took photos for my websites. Plus as a small venue, I got much closer than is possible at a seated venue.

About us
We deliver user-centric business strategy, communication platforms, content, and design and build services for clients around the globe. Fundamental to everything we do is the importance of properly understanding the clients we work with. This client-centric approach has become central to the way we work, based on 3 core beliefs.
We're free to recommend the right solutions to clients, whatever they may be (…) we also have to work harder, meaning our clients benefit from an agency set up to deliver business success at all costs.
Multi-Disciplinary Teams
Our teams have always been client-focused and multi-disciplinary. This is based on an understanding that a conveyor-belt approach is not capable of delivering against the complexities of digital projects, and that digital problem solving requires many different skills and mindsets.
An Iterative Approach
Our ways of working need to cope with a world where change is the only constant. Fixed thinking, fixed deliverables, can be out of date by the time work is released, and so we need a more flexible, agile approach. This allows us to build, release and test at rapid speeds, updating strategy and research with real-world learning and ensuring constant improvement to the platforms we build.
Independent Thinking
We're one of the last remaining independent digital consultancies, and that means we're free to recommend the right solutions to clients whatever they may be. It also means we have to work harder, meaning our clients benefit from an agency set up to deliver business success at all costs.
Next up
Our business
From our inception in 1996 to present day, our vision has always been to create a company that is designed to deliver business success for our clients.
Our values
We're the rebels. The misfits. The people who drive change by not fitting in, by offering the unconventional approach.

Sylvester Williams: what the draft analysts said about him
Sylvester Williams, DT, North Carolina
Height: 6' 03"
Weight: 313 lbs.
Arm length: 33.5"
40-yard dash: 5.03
225-lb. bench: 27 reps
Broad jump: 8' 06"
Vertical jump: 26.5"
3-cone drill: 7.93
Short shuttle: 4.80
2011: 54 tackles, 7 TFL, 2.5 sacks
2012: 42 tackles, 13.5 TFL, 6 sacks
Pro Football Weekly (Nolan Nawrocki) Analysis
Rank: 6th overall, 2nd-highest rated defensive tackle
Grade: 6.45 (instant starter)
Positives: Highly competitive. Very quick off the ball and disruptive. Plays with violence in his hands. Feels blocking pressure and splits double teams. Swats blockers. Can dig heels in dirt and neutralize blocks or shoot gaps. Very good anchor strength -- seldom moved off a spot. Knows how to work the edges. Very good short-area quickness, confirmed by impressive 10-yard splits (1.73 seconds) for a 315-pounder. Good eyes and instincts to sniff out the run and makes plays behind the line. Terrific motor. Outstanding personal and football character -- very demanding of himself and needs to be chased from the weight room. Extremely versatile and can fit anywhere along an odd front and as a plugger or penetrator in an even front. Very tough and will play through injuries (as he did as a senior).
Negatives: Only played one year of high school football and is still learning how to play the game. Overaged. Can be easily influnced. Weight balloons rapidly and needs to be monitored. Limited upside - maxed out. Marginal 20-yard shuttle time (4.83 seconds) and 3-cone time (7.93 seconds).
Summary: Strong, versatile, highly motivated interior presence was slowed by a left ankle injury that he battled through as a senior. Stood out at the Senior Bowl and has the intangibles and work ethic to become a dominating inside force at multiple positions vs. the run and pass.
Mel Kiper's Analysis
Rank: 16th overall, 4th-highest rated defensive tackle
Grade: 9.2 (Should start in his first year)
Comments: "Williams is a fascinating story because of the random path he took to get to this point. He is a super-competitive hard worker who proved to be a real penetrator on the interior. He gets into the backfield and wreaks havoc, splitting the double-team and making plays. Williams was very impressive at the Senior Bowl practices, seeming to be unblockable during the week in Mobile. He is quick for his size, with a great power/strength quotient. Williams is a guy that offensive line coaches mark and have to figure out how to stop. He brings a pass rush component as well as freeing up other defensive tackles and linebackers to make plays because of the attention he demands. He is deserving of Top 15-25 overall status in this draft."
Draft Insiders (Frank Coyle) Analysis
Rank: 28th overall, 5th-highest rated defensive tackle
Grade:85 (should start in first year)
Notes: "Strong mobile senior tackle completed an excellent ACC career providing big plays consistently from the inside. Sylvester started all 25 games of his two year Tar Heel career after an All American JC stay at Coffeyville CC. He quickly became a fixture in the middle of their talented front line. He showed marked improvement over his career that earned him an invite to the Senior Bowl and NFL Combine after achieving ACC honors over his final two seasons. He is a very strong tackle with a wide frame and the mobility and power that translates well to the field. He has explosive lower body power with the quick feet to gain consistent penetration in the gaps. He is learning to use his hands better to create an early advantage on the down. His hand punch needs further development to take advantage of his power and quickness. His good initial explosiveness allows him to penetrate the backfield and instrumental in him attaining 21 `NC career TFL. He is a good leverage defender who fills the hole well vs. the run, relying on his long arms to keep blockers off his body. He has fine natural movement skills to rank him among the upper echelon of prospects with the skill set to become an early NFL starter. He could also be testeed as a nose tackle in a 3-4 set, but is best suited for the inside in a 4-3 set in a three technique for early NFL playing time. He has learned to use his strong hands early on the down to keep clean, though he needs critical work on his technique to separate and shed blockers to stay alive later on the play. He has learned to use his powerful hand punch to strike an opponent quickly as well as coming off the ball with good leverage and speed. As a pass rusher, he has good initial speed, though limited development and production with marginal secondary moves. He makes many plays in the tackle box and has enough speed to get to the sidelines. He displays good functional strength and balance with the ability to play on his feet and get to the ball with a fine burst within a limited area. He has adequate COD skills and can struggle at times if his initial move is controlled. he has nice short area speed that allows him to gain penetration, though he can get wired to blockers often if his initial move is contained. He disappears for stretches which suggest strength conditions concerns. He has improved nicely reading plays with good reaction and vision to recognize run and react to the pass. He is similar to Dan Williams in size, power and initial quickness. At the Senior Bowl, he performed well and showed good run stuffing skills and the power to push the pocket. He has performed well at a high level of competition and should be able to step in and contribute as a probable rookie starter. Though a developing pass rusher, he has the talent to improve further in that area. Developed prospect with the skill set to be one of the unheralded defenders in this deep DT class. Top 30 player and good addition with early starting potential. He could be a fine late 1st round addition with an expected huge run at the position in the top 50 selections. Type to become a fixture in a 4-3 front with Pro Bowl talent."
NFL.com Analysis
Rank: 62nd overall, 7th-highest rated defensive tackle
Grade: 80.6 (eventual starter)
STRENGTHS: Wide-body nose tackle with an unexpected bit of quickness off the snap. Has girth through the middle that makes him tough to move when he looks to anchor. Keeps his eyes in the backfield and locates the ball well (and will sniff out the occasional screen). Uses strong hands and upper body to rip past and push aside lesser linemen. Good flexibility and balance, showing the ability to bend and roll his hips through contact off the ball and keep a wide base to anchor against base blocks and doubles. Violent tackler, will throw ballcarriers to the ground. Has enough short-area quickness to charge through the A-gap off the snap. Spins off blocks when moving forward to threaten hesitating quarterbacks or get a hand on running backs in the backfield. Can two-gap, moves to either side of his man to corral backs coming between the tackles. Shows good leverage, pad level, and hand quickness to split double teams. When fresh, he will chase a bit more than most players his size against the run as well as give a second effort if his initial pass rush move fails.
WEAKNESSES: Lacks closing speed to get a lot of sacks or make plays outside the box. Overly reliant on the swim move. Does not bull linemen backward very often, won't outquick NFL guards. Flashes quickness off the snap, but gets stuck on blocks too often when tired, and loses ability to get to the ball even if able to disengage. Can get low and create a pile on the goal line, but gets pushed back when playing high in other short-yardage situations. Doesn't have the athleticism to stop his momentum. Will run himself too far upfield and miss sacks and tackles when he can't stop himself.
NFL COMPARISON: Terrance Knighton
BOTTOM LINE: Williams quit the game after high school, but missed it enough to try again as a junior college enrollee. He should project as a starting NFL nose tackle, even if he is rotated out regularly against more pass-heavy offenses. Uses his hustle to chase ball carriers (20.5 tackles for loss, 8.5 sacks in two years starting) and strong anchor to hold the line. He has good quickness in relation to his size, but is overly reliant on this athleticism at the moment. Plays both three-technique and one-technique for North Carolina, and it's likely he's been coached/asked to be more of a penetrator than he will be in the NFL. For a player with his size and strength, you'd like to see him use it more. When he decides to get his pads low and anchor against base blocks and double teams, he can be impossible to move. Opposing teams made it a concern to try and run him upfield, or use his active motor in backside pursuit against him (running away from him to get him to chase and wear out).
National Football Post (Russ Lande) Analysis
Rank: 12th overall, 2nd-highest rated defensive tackle
Grade: 8.15 (highly productive starting player)
STRENGTHS - Williams is an innately explosive athlete that also displays impressive agility for a man his size when playing with proper knee bend and leverage. When he comes off the snap low he display very good strength at the POA and the heavy hands needed to take on and shed multiple blockers. He demonstrates outstanding instincts off the snap and excellent read and react skills, allowing him to use his non-stop hustle to make plays he otherwise wouldn't be able to get to.
WEAKNESSES - Too often Williams comes off the snap high and doesn't play with proper knee bend and base. This allows blockers to get into his framework and control him at the POA, as well as prevents him from breaking down in space to consistently finish tackles. He goes to his swim move too often on the pass rush, leading to him being washed out too easily by aggressive blockers.
SUMMARY - For all the (justified) hype Sharrif Floyd and Sheldon Richardson have received, Sylvester Williams is every bit the same level of prospect at DT. He possesses an outstanding first step and excellent instincts, which allow him to constantly penetrate gaps and threaten the backfield. When playing with proper base and leverage he demonstrates excellent strength at the POA, and uses his hands aggressively to shed blocks. When rushing the passer he flashes a variety of moves utilizes his natural quickness and power, but he tends to rely too much on his first step quickness and arm-over move. Once he learns to lower his pad level off the ball utilize his full skill set, he will become a highly productive player in almost any defensive scheme. Williams is clearly worth a first round selection, and should be able to make an immediate impact in the NFL with his burst off the ball.
CBS Sports (Rob Rang) Analysis
Rank: 19th overall, 4th-highest rated defensive tackle
Grade: N/A
STRENGTHS: Possesses a naturally large, thick build. Possesses a very quick first step and a lethal swim move (both arms, if necessary) to slip past interior linemen. Varies his burst off the snap, lulling his opponent into relaxing and can make the explosive tackle behind the line of scrimmage before the ball-carrier has had time to make his first cut.
Good strength for the bull rush. Has the strength to rip his arms free to disengage and shows a quick, closing burst. Very good strength for the drag-down tackle as ballcarriers attempt to run by him. Versatile. Asked to line up on the nose, defensive tackle and even out wide, showing the ability to hold up to double-teams. Improving awareness versus screens, draws. Good pursuit to the edge. Has only played football for five years and appears to be an ascending player.
WEAKNESSES: Struggles with consistency. Can make the flashy play and then disappear for long stretches. Relies on his swim move to slip past the defender but has only average flexibility, which forces him to turn his back to "get skinny." When doing so, Williams often loses sight of the ball, actually helping his opponent create easy lanes, at times.
Lack of ideal flexibility and awareness is also evident against cut-blocks, as he is often knocked to the ground and has only average quickness in getting back up to get himself back into the play. While he shows good pursuit to the edge, Williams loses steam quickly and doesn't give much effort downfield.
COMPARES TO: Gerard Warren, DT, New England Patriots -- Like the 12-year veteran of the NFL trenches, Williams possesses precisely the combination of size, power, and burst to dominate the middle. The question for scouts will be if he has the work ethic to dominate consistently.
TFY Draft Insider (Tony Pauline) Analysis
Rank: 22nd overall, 4th-highest rated tackle
Grade: N/A
Positive: Large, athletic defensive lineman with potential at a number of tackle positions. Plays with excellent pad level, gets leverage on opponents, and fluid moving in every direction of the field. Quick off the snap, easily changes direction and gets down the line scrimmage to make plays in space. Keeps his feet moving on contact, displays power in his lower body, and drives blockers off the point to collapse the pocket. Commands double-team blocks and consistently focused on by opponents. Tough, smart, and plays disciplined football.
Negative: Possesses average pass rushing skills. Occasionally plays out-of-control. Wears down over the course of games.
Analysis: Williams is a versatile defensive lineman with a well-rounded game and a player who can line up at nose tackle or as a conventional tackle in a four man line. He needs to better condition himself and improve on the details of his position but Williams comes with terrific upside potential and will produce at the next level if properly coached.
ESPN (Scouts Inc.) Analysis
Rank: 17th overall, 4th-highest rated defensive tackle
Grade: 92 (rare prospect, first-rounder)
Versus the Run: Has surprisingly good first-step quickness for a DT with a bit of a wide-body frame. Fires off the ball and has the initial burst to consistently win the battle for initial positioning. Pad level is inconsistent and he gives ground when loses the battle for leverage. Played undersized in 2012 and was on the move much more often. At a good playing weight (approx. 310lbs) he can be much tougher to move off the ball when he stays low. Shows consistent ability to hold ground when asked to maintain gap integrity as a run defender. Struggles to anchor versus double team but will put up a fight and will split some. Showed ability to shoot gaps and disrupt plays in the backfield against zone runs. Can slip offensive linemen as he works upfield. Has good range for the position and will make some plays in pursuit.
Pass Rush Skills: Explosive first-step quickness but will pause when reached. Does not show elite burst through the gap and only has adequate closing burst to the QB. Too much finesse as a pass rusher. Would like to see him incorporate more bull rush into his array of moves. Flashes ability to knock blockers off balance with punch but much more effective with slap, rip and swim moves. If anything, he relies on swim move too often. Occasionally when he breaks free, he comes flying in out of control and will be unable to gear down to complete the sack. Gets hands up when sees quarterback start throwing motion and times jumps well. Production is a bit inflated; three of six sacks in 2012 came versus Elon (2) and Idaho (1). Doesn't show enough savvy in setting up blockers but has the lateral mobility to develop effective double move with improved footwork.
Quickness (hands/feet): Very quick hands. Does not have heavy hands but does have some shock. Very good initial quickness. Above average lateral agility.
Toughness/Motor: Doesn't gear down when teams commit two blockers to him. Chases the run and flashes the ability to make plays outside the tackle box because of it. Above average motor rushing the passer. However, isn't quite relentless and appears to wear down at times.
Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel (Bob McGinn) Analysis:
Rank: 5th-highest rated defensive tackle
Grade: N/A
Notes: Grew up in a tough section of St. Louis, then played his one and only year of high school ball in Jefferson City, Mo. Worked for a year before sustaining his career in junior college. Started all 25 games at weak-side DT for Tar Heels. "The most solid D-lineman that has no chance of busting, solid as a rock, is Sylvester Williams," one scout said. Goes by "Sly." Registered 96 tackles (20½ for loss) and 8½ sacks. "I wouldn't take him in the first round," another scout said. "He is a pretty solid player. I got him in the third (round). He might be a nose. He can be (stout). He was probably 330 last year but lost a bunch of weight because they changed schemes." Led D-tackles in Wonderlic score (25) and hand size (10¾). "I just don't think he's very good," a third scout said. "I'm shocked at all this (attention) he's getting. Absolutely shocked. He's non-instinctive. Just doesn't make any plays. Doesn't play strong. Hopefully, he will go ahead of us. His off-the-field is great. They love him. Works hard. Worked out good. All that."

No idea who did that NFL.com ranking and how long ago it was considering quite a few of their writers/reporters had Sylvester in their top 20's right before the draft including Mayock.

I agree he is not instinctive, he is a read and react guy but with his first move being so quick he is a natural fit for a front like ours.

I hate playing the "strong locker room" card but I think this kid came to a good one, and a staff that will absolutely get the most out of anything he has.
I almost can't believe we drafted D Line 2 years in a row like this. Today should be exciting.

From Denver Post.
Not that Williams wasn't a solid pick. It is believed New England was ready to take him with its No. 29 pick. After the Broncos nabbed the Tar Heel one spot ahead, the Patriots traded back with Minnesota.

This, "He is a super-competitive hard worker..." from Kiper, is all I need to hear. The rest can be fixed with coaching. But if you don't have that first piece, the coaching means nothing.

Here's the deal people, sorry I have to be the one to point this out but oh well: If the Broncos would have traded down and the Pats would have taken Williams, everyone one and their grandmother would be singing the praises of the Pats and pointing out how they got the steal of the first round yadda, yadda, yadda. But the Broncos get Williams and don't trade down and everyone is like "well, that is a lot of picks, think I'll cry now."

I am not a draft guru either, but you can find things to worry about with any player. Google "PLAYER NAME negatives", and you'll find something wrong with every single player. Get down into the later part of the first round, and you'll get even more questions.

OK, so i appreciate the lack of info. I really do. All i can take from this thread is that as a disc priest i should A respec holy or B stay out and raid heal, as single target healer.... none of this sounds any kinds of apealing. I'm surpriesed that nobody has any help for what a disc priest should be doing in this. I'm a stategist at heart so i've tried different strats but generally our tank/dps gets wipedout from blistering zombies each time.
"In anything, if you want to go from just a beginner to a pro, you need a montage." /w TankSpot WTB Montage for Raiders.
I have an issue with positioning, our main problem is we're getting too many adds to control, and we get to the enrage with too many adds, so:
1- What is a decent amount of time to get to lets say 75%? (we send 4 healers inside)
2- How many stacks they should get in each portal phase? (assuming they are not losing any, we get the boss to 75% at 5min~ but things seems to stop then)
3- How you should set raid positioning?
We are recently running with lots of melee, so we have 4 each side (where the suppresers stand), we put healers and caster in the middle of the boss so they can reach the raid or the blazing skells, and the 2 tanks are in the front of the room getting the abominations, for supressers we divide DPS and put range to AOE 1 side at a time, then all in skells then melee on mages and casters on the abos then AOEing. Is there anything wrong here?
I've heard ppl saying that is better to nuke suppressers even before skells, others that skeels have top priority then mages, what we do is: Skells>Suppressers> (melee Mages and range Zombies/Abos).

I don't think your issue is add control, though it would be difficult to say w/o a video capture, instead I think you are healing the dragon too slowly.
First off, send three healers in the portals. I know it sounds counter intuitive, but sending in one less healer will actually increase your ability to build larger stacks on your best single target healers, in turn healing the dragon faster.
A few answers:
(1) I don't have an exact number, but the entire encounter shouldn't last longer than, say, 5:30.
(2) That will change if you decide to take my advice and send in three healers. With three, 7-8 per trip isn't unreasonable, 5-6 is adequite, and any less is fail.
(3) Your raid positioning seems fine. I would remove the ranged and healers from the "middle" of the dragon, as they cannot dodge mana voids and "shoot you up in the air" voids if they cannot see them on the ground. Of course, if by "middle" you mean "near" the boss, then you're fine.
A couple of questions:
(1) What healing classes do you have available, who are you sending in now?
(2) Do you assign quadrants for your healers for orb collecting in the dreamstate?
(3) Have you tried prioritizing Mages over suppressors for the raid overall, and just assign a few people to take down suppressors when they spawn?
Well, I don't mess with them in how they do it, 3 of the 4 we send they know how to do it and have experience from 10m,
1- We send 1 Pally, 2 Shammys and 1 Holy Priest, ideally instead of the priest we send a resto druid but we didn't have one the last few attempts.
2- No that i know.
3- I set top priority Skells, then Supressors, then Mages, happens that sometimes the mages run by the supressors spot and we aggro the mage so we kill it before it kills some dps. We assing always melee on supressors + AOE from our casters, then we go to Archmages.
When you are courting a nice girl an hour seems like a second. When you sit on a red-hot cinder a second seems like an hour. That's relativity. - Albert Einstein
I would try the fight out with only sending in only your pally and shaman (shamans? shamanses?). I think you'll be surprised.
Try setting quadrants for when your healers are in the dreamstate, like N, SW, SE. Like a Mercedes Benz logo. That way you will never have one healer assed out on orbs.
Put a slightly higher priority for "raid" DPS (ie-those w/o specific assignments) for mages. It really isn't the damage, but the snare that can really start getting you behind on adds. I would say they are more important than suppressors when you dragon healers are in the portal. Of course, I still suggest having a couple people on each side dedicated to burning suppressors (preferably DPS w/o a reliable interrupt).
awesome thanks, we will try that out next time.

Alright, we spent all night wiping on this fight on 10 man, and after it all I have a few questions.
We run a 3 healer, 5 dps, 2 tank setup for this fight we usually seem to be making it about to 6 minutes and some change every time before we wipe it up, which from what I'm reading so far shoud be plenty of time to have finished this fight. We have a shaman and a paladin constantly healing the boss and taking every portal and a druid healing the raid.
So, with that info, my questions are as follows.
1. With 2 healers about how much HPS should they be looking at on a successful fight?
2. How important is interrupting the mages frostbolt volley, ie. If its going off to much should it be stopping our healers from being able to take portals. Currently we have it WAY up in priority, with one dps on either side of the room who's job is almost completely to be interrupting them when they are up.
The two Val healers (myself the shaman, and our druid) usually pull about 8-9k HPS BEFORE the portals. Over the whole fight we average around 11k-13k each. Do you have World of Logs to show?
Small things, like making sure the shaman drops earth shield on your tank every once in a while, can make a big difference. But, if its taking more than 6 minutes, it may well be an issue with the healers.
Someone has to tell me what nameplates those are in the ten man video!
good job mate
May i ask what addon you uses for your actionbars?
just a quick question....im a holy pally and i was just wondering if it would benefit more to just beacon one of the tanks and keep heals up on val 24/7? i do this cuz we single tank this on regular 10m....but yesterday we tried the heroic 10m and healing val and leaving raid heals to our holy priest seems to not work....but when i beaconed val and went to raid heals....her life just kept depleting faster as opposed to my other way of healing.....BUT the raid was kept alive everytime im out of the portal.....any suggestions?? i TRUST our healers to heal the raid....but should i keep beaconing val and raid healing or just beacon a tank and bomb HL on val...?? any suggestions are appreciated
Mate, I don't think (remember it's a think), that it is affordable to have two Val-healers, I solo healed it (Holy Paladin), and I came up to 36 stacks of Emerald Vigor and a avg. HPS of 26k while casting (Not counting time in the Emerald Dream). It would be easier doing the raid healing with 2 healers, and you'll get approximately the same Val healing with 1 Val healer. At least with a Pally HealerThe two Val healers (myself the shaman, and our druid) usually pull about 8-9k HPS BEFORE the portals. Over the whole fight we average around 11k-13k each. Do you have World of Logs to show?
by any chance can you list your addons or upload a pack of them to wow.curse.com your UI just look wonderful
i found a link in your youtube comments and i found it thanks a bunch

So we tried this fight last night in our 10man, our biggest problem seemed to be the warrior tank saying he can't pick up the lil worms from the abominations he said he would thunderclap em but as soon as the TC wore off they would just run straight to the healers. is this more of a dps issue or tanking issue? as a dk, i was able to hold them just fine.
Honestly? Tank error. Warriors have plenty of tools to overcome healer aggro. There are several reasons why this could be, but my general guess is he isn't holding shockwave for the worms, but is instead using in a general threat rotation. TC->ShW->TC should be more than enough threat to keep the worms off healers. Also, is he subbing Cleave for HS as a rage dump when tanking the worms?

Ok so basicly i discovered something incredible for holy palas=D 1st Put ur beacon on the fat boss
2: stick on the boss, like 1 ft away
3: spam holy light
result: if u have holy light glyphed, theres a AOE heal that is produced that will heal u, friends, but the beacon of light will make the boss receive the extra heal and augment ur HPS by like 1000.
Try it out!!!!!!

How to make Sous Vide Chicken in a Home Kitchen – and Massaman Curry Recipe
February 4, 2013 in Entrees, Gluten Free
I have always been curious about those sous vide machines, but alas – they are pricey.
Then, I saw a chicken salad recipe in Cook's Illustrated that used a home version of sous vide - with no fancy equipment at all. Their method is interesting- they just put the chicken right into water, so it is a mild poaching.
I modified their method to keep the chicken in zip top bags, thus keeping the flavor in the chicken and not leaching out into the water.
This method is super easy and quick and results in moist, tender, flavorful chicken. Perfect for my first ever try at Massaman Curry at Home! I followed the lead of the Starving Chef and was not disappointed – but, of course, tweaked a bit.. Massaman is my favorite Thai curry – and I am thrilled to say this beats any restaurant version I have had!
Here are easy instructions and step-by-step Sous Vide photos (AND a bonus Massaman Recipe!):

Take a Few Extra Steps in the Fall to Make Spring Mowing a Breeze
It's a beautiful spring day, the grass is green again, and you're thinking about pulling out the mower for the first cut of the season. Your lawnmower has other ideas. You yank and prime and swear and yank some more. Nothing happens. So you call the lawnmower shop and they tell you they can squeeze you in - next month. If you put your lawnmower away in the fall with a little preparation, starting your mower in the spring will be a lot easier.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- A Syracuse attorney pleaded guilty to bribing witnesses in connection with a 2010 shooting that left one man dead.
Ezequiel Neuman was indicted on 21 counts and faced 25 years in jail if convicted of the most serious charge.
Investigators say he used cash and cocaine to bribe witnesses in the murder trial of Emilier Carrasquillo-Fuentes. Carrasquillo-Fuentes is accused of shooting and killing another man in 2010. That trial was scheduled to begin next month.
As part of his deal, Neuman agreed to give up his law license, surrender his green card and leave the country. He will be sentenced on January 24th.

Acorn Rentals (www.acornrentals.com.au) delivers rental cars to customers after an auto accident. Now Acorn's drivers travel with FileMaker Go on their iPads, so they deliver an even better customer experience along with the cars.
Acorn's drivers typically deliver a rental car to their customers at an auto repair shop. With an iPad running FIleMaker Go in hand they enter customer and vehicle details directly into the firm's main database at headquarters. Then the customer receives a copy of the documentation by email.
Customers waiting for a rental car want to get their replacement and get going as fast as possible. In its role as "clipboard replacement", the iPad eliminates an intimidating amount of forms and copies, removes the need for rekeying of customer data and eases and speeds the whole experience for the customer.
"The moment we found out about FileMaker Go for iPad, we instantly switched over to it and abandoned our previous costly, complex mobile development effort," says Aaron Martin, national operations manager for Acorn Rentals.
For Acorn and its customers, the benefits of adopting the iPad and FileMaker Go are immediately evident — fast time-to-market for an advanced iOS solution, improved productivity, reduced costs and enhanced customer satisfaction.
"With FileMaker Go, we now deliver a customer experience that is unrivalled by any car hire firm in Australia and was achieved without a huge development budget and specialised hardware," says Martin.

Equipment Spotlight: Used Equipment - Farm Storage
By L. Sorensen On-farm storage is a growing trend and many farmers have replaced older, smaller bins with new and higher capacity ones over the past year. The volume of grain bin sales reported over the past year isn't large, but it will give buyers some idea of what used bins are selling for. Generally, bins sell for approximately .50/bu and reported sales prices reflect that standard. However, some North Dakota sales in 2008 pretty well reflected that average. One 7700 bushel bin sold in North Dakota in December 2008 for $3,000. That's nearly.39/bu and the condition of the bin is unknown. That could have had a major effect on the sales price. Several 10,000 bushel Butler grain bins were reported sold in North Dakota in December 2008. Two different bins brought $3,750, which is .33/bu for the bin. Two other bins were reported sold that same month for $4,300, which comes to .43/bu. One bin reported sold in North Dakota in December 2008 brought $5,100, which averages out to .51/bu. Some smaller Butler bins were also reported sold in North Dakota in November 2008. Four 18'DX16'H bins were sold at auction in November 2008. Two were sold for $925 and $950 each; two others brought $1,000 each. Bins this size hold approximately 3,270/bu of grain and the per-bushel price at $925 comes to .28. At $950, the price-per-bushel is .29 and the $1,000 cost brings the price of the bin to .327/bushel. The few hopper sales reported came from North Dakota. Prices reported from a November 2008 auction sale were $3,000, $4,750 and $6,000. One other hopper bin sold in November for $1,200 in North Dakota. One 7,500/bu Sioux grain bin was reported sold in North Dakota in October 2008 for $1,750. That's just .23/bu and may have been quite a bargain, depending on its condition and moving costs. Few grain bin sales have been reported in 2009. Those that have been reported are primarily for older bins. Sales reports came from North Dakota and South Dakota in March and May 2009. North Dakota's reported sales in Marcy were for older Sioux bins. The capacity wasn't reported but the ales prices for three different bins were $300 and $350. Apparently the bins were small and probably old. Two 4,000 bushel bins were reported sold in South Dakota in May 2009. The brand is unknown. One went for $4,750 and the other sold for $6,700. The prices were much higher than those reported earlier in 2009 and in Fall 2008. The $4,750 bin averages to $1.187/bu. The $6,700 bin was sold at an average of $1.675. Two other 4,000/bu grain bins were reported sold in Georgia in December 2008 for $500 each. It's possible the potential for a bumper crop is causing farmers to hold onto older bins even if they're setting up new and larger grain bins. It's also possible that the cost and time involved in moving and resetting an older bin isn't as worthwhile as purchasing a new one. Traditionally, grain bin sales are at a peak in the winter. Our reported sales were meager this past winter. It's possible that farmers were utilizing methods other than auctions to move their bins. The highest number of sales reported came from North Dakota. South Dakota reported the next highest number. However, North Dakota sales reports totaled 22 and South Dakota's reported sales only numbered three. The majority of the sales were reported in November and December with just a handful coming in March. Two of the South Dakota sales occurred in May.

AbleNook was designed by Sean Verdecia and Jason Ross as part of an architecture project while at the University of South Florida. The summer-long independent study project turned into a real-world solution they hoped could make a difference in the wake of natural disasters. The modular design is based on identical and universal aluminum structural insulated panels (SIPs) and extruded aluminum structural members that clip together without the use of any tools. A basic shelter can be assembled in about two hours without the help of skilled labor. The structural members have a patent-pending design that allow for wiring of electrical components. An arched roof covers the module and integrated solar panels generate power for the dwelling. Finally, adjustable leg jacks allow AbleNook to be deployed on wildly uneven terrain.
The design team has recently completed a working prototype, a single module that serves as a proof of concept. They also recently launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for the next phase of their development. With $60,000 the team will build the molds and tooling necessary to fabricate AbleNook 002 and begin building dwellings on larger scale. "We really believe that good design can help save people's lives and restore human dignity after a natural disaster," says Jason Ross. While the original plan was for these units to be used for disaster relief, AbleNook could also be expanded for classrooms, offices, and even prefab housing. The duo expect to have units completed and available for sale by the end of 2013.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. - A Utah senator helped inspire a movement two decades ago when he argued against wilderness protection, by saying his older constituents would not be able to enjoy the outdoors if motorized access was prohibited.
Female backpackers in the audience objected to his comment and decided to form a group, calling themselves Great Old Broads for Wilderness. The group was founded in 1989 on the 25th anniversary of the Wilderness Act.
National headquarters for Great Old Broads for Wilderness is located in Durango. Numerous local chapters, called Broadbands exist across the country.
Four years ago, Jan Burch founded a Broadband in Grand Junction, where members meet monthly to talk about preserving wild lands - for themselves and future generations.
Some local Broads also volunteer with the Bureau of Land Management Grand Junction Field Office, an agency responsible for more than a million acres of public lands in Colorado, mostly in Mesa and Garfield counties.
Local Broadband leader Sherry Schenk adopted a BLM trail that she monitors, and from which she regularly hauls out trash. Schenk also volunteers in the office and helps with BLM outreach events. Another member, Janice Shepherd monitors archeology sites on BLM land.
It's an "incredible gift" to have unspoiled lands nearby, so "volunteering to give back is important to me," Schenk said.
Broads testify at hearings on land-use policy, write letters to the editor and to legislators, and participate in rallies and protests.
Members also get together for "Broad Walks" where Great Old Broads from across the country come to walk, study and learn about an area and often do a service project together.
Not everyone appreciates the women, who tend to be 60 and older. Last fall, members from 50 states gathered for a Broad Walk near Canyonlands National Park where they camped for four nights. They woke up one morning and found themselves locked inside their campsite.
"We were doing trail and fence maintenance," 80-year old local Broad Joyce Olson said. "Someone came at night, closed the gate and padlocked it. If anyone had gotten sick, we couldn't have got out."
Former GOB director Ronni Egan walked to a nearby ranch for bolt-cutters, Olson said.
A hag mask was also posted on a fence with an ominous note: "Get out of San Juan County. This is your last warning."
"It was a threat because they locked us in," Olson said.
These wilderness gals are not easily intimidated, however.
Great Old Broads spend a lot of time researching issues so they can make intelligent comments regarding public land use, said Schenk, a 60-year old retired school psychologist.
Most recently, members have immersed themselves in studying the BLM's draft Resource Management Plan, a 600-plus-page document that will determine public lands direction for the BLM for the next 20 years. The BLM is accepting written public comments regarding the four alternative plans through April 25.
"We revise the plan every two decades; this (new plan) will set the management direction for the next two decades. So, it's very important," local BLM spokesman David Boyd said.
"There are four alternatives we're looking at. It's important for people concerned about public lands to review the alternatives and give us comments. It's a good opportunity for people to have an influence on how public lands are managed."
Plan A directs the BLM to continue with its current plan. Plan B, the BLM's "preferred alternative," identifies three areas: West Creek, and Maverick and Unaweep Canyons near Gateway, as areas with "wilderness characteristics" - meaning oil and gas development, and motorized access would be prohibited.
Great Old Broads prefer plan C, that would protect nine additional areas from motorized use, and oil and gas development. While recognizing that many motorized users are good stewards of the land, both Schenk and Olson said they have seen many instances where off-road vehicles have driven up creek beds.
"One of our mottos is it's OK to use the land; it's not OK to abuse it," Olson said.
Under Plan D, no additional lands would be considered for lands with wilderness characteristics.
Boyd emphasized that all alternatives are on the table, and that the BLM welcomes feedback regarding each of the plans. The final plan will probably have aspects of each of the alternatives, he said.
"Lands with wilderness characteristics" must be natural, provide solitude, provide unconfined recreation and be larger than 5,000 acres. Other, supplemental values include lands with rare plants, endangered animals, or paleontological and archaeological features.
Great Old Broads for Wilderness includes members of all ages and both genders. Men are called "Bros" and younger women under the age of 50 are called "Training Broads."
Not all Broads visit the lands they work to preserve - whether due to physical ability or geographical distance. They want the lands protected, however, for future generations.
Broads work to preserve wild places and say roadless wild areas should remain roadless to protect wildlife habitat and prevent further "damaging incursions into wilderness." According to the grassroots, nonprofit organization, "public lands already contain enough roads - millions of miles of them, providing adequate access and recreational opportunities."
Broads also like to point out that protected wild lands bring economic benefits in the form of hunters, fishermen, birders, photographers and tourists to the region.
There are 100 members of the local Broad chapter, 30 of whom are active, Schenk said.
The Great Old Broads for Wilderness' next meeting is planned for 5-7 p.m. Monday, Feb. 25. Call Schenk at 970-596-8510 for location and more information.
