Research Interests
Social, economic, and cultural history of China, 10th-18th centuries; popular religion, urban history, popular social movements; comparative economic history; global economic integration, 1000-1800.
After completing an undergraduate degree majoring in Chinese at Connecticut College, I pursued graduate study in Chinese history at UC Berkeley (M.A.) and Yale University (Ph.D., 1983). I held postdoctoral fellowships at Harvard and the University of Rochester and a tenure-track assistant professorship at Connecticut College before I joined the UCLA faculty in 1987. My primary field of research is the economic and social history of premodern China, with a particular focus on the period 1000-1700. My publications include three monographs in Chinese history,several edited books, and a co-authored textbook in world history. My main current writing project is a comprehensive economic history of China from antiquity to the 19th century. I also am continuing to pursue research in Chinese monetary history, especially the interrelationship between China's monetary system and wider spheres of monetary circulation within Asia and on a global scale. During the 2013-14 academic year I will be on leave to pursue research and writing with the support of a Guggenheim Fellowship.
In addition to teaching courses on all periods of Chinese history, I have served as the coordinator for the History Department's program in world history for the past ten years, and teach a range of undergraduate and graduate courses in world history.

BROOME COUNTY, N.Y. -- The First Niagara Bank in Conklin was closed Wednesday afternoon while State Police investigated a robbery there.
A man walked into the branch on Route 7 around 2:30 p.m. and demanded money from the teller. He didn't show a weapon, but did get away with cash.
Troopers have since released these surveillance photos as they try to identify who the suspect is. As you can see, the man had a purple hat on and his face was covered up by a bandana. Troopers say he's about 5-foot-8.
Police don't know which direction he was headed when he left, but they are asking anyone with information to give them a call. The number for State Police is (607) 775-1241 or you can call 911.

Things I would have changed:H&N already did it--they also make the heavier Baracuda Power round nose pellet.
What others should know:My 12-groove barrel 34 is VERY pellet picky! Only 5 of 26 moderately priced pellets that I've tested will regularly shoot into the same hole from my 7-yard basement range bench rest. This pellet is NOT one of them, but the Baracuda Power and Baracuda Hunter are! :)

The experimental Green Solution House consists of a long volume of hotel rooms with a corrugated roof attached to a fan-like volume that opens up on the side. The center's restaurant and conference rooms sit in this larger fan-shaped space and enjoy views of the scenic countryside. Everything is adapted to the circulation of nature and guests will get an idea of how it feels to live in a world without waste. The building itself is to be constructed in a way that creates zero waste and at the end of its life it can be deconstructed and recycled in accordance with the principles of Cradle 2 Cradle.
Solar panels on the roof produce all the energy needed for the facility. Rainwater is collected, biologically cleaned and then reused. Integrated greenhouses next to the main building produce organic fruits and vegetables for use within the restaurant and whatever waste is produced is either recycled or composted. 3XN also has high ambitions for the facility to be a testing grounds for new, exciting sustainable technologies. They envision the conference center to be a destination on the already popular tourist island of Bornholm. Over time they would like to recreate the Green Solution House in other travel destinations around the world.

Fernando Alonso isn't sure whether he would prefer a wet or dry Brazilian GP, but whatever the weather he needs 14 points more than Sebastian Vettel.
On a dry Interlagos track on Friday, Alonso struggled to match the pace of his main rivals.
The Spaniard finished the day, an extremely hot one, half a second down on pace-setter Lewis Hamilton. But more importantly, he was 0.292s slower than Vettel, who finished second.
"It was very hot out on the circuit today and, especially this afternoon, the track temperatures were well above normal, even for this circuit," said Alonso.
"We have not yet found the ideal balance on the car, so there is still a lot of work to be done with the engineers going into the rest of the weekend.
"The predictions are for very different conditions from Saturday to Sunday, further reason to concentrate on the best choices when it comes to preparing the car for qualifying, but especially for the race.
"After so many Fridays, there is nothing much new to say about the tyres: the Hards appear to be more consistent, while the Mediums produce a quicker lap time."
As for whether the Spaniard, who has won two wet races this season, will be doing a rain dance or not, Alonso has yet to decide.
"It's hard to say if we prefer rain or the dry: as I said before, it is vital to be prepared to tackle both situations."
Wet or dry he knows he needs 14 points more than Vettel to secure his third Drivers' Championship title.
"We know we have to score 14 points more than Vettel for the Championship and not lose the same number to McLaren to maintain our second place in the Constructors'.
"Our targets are clear, but also difficult to achieve."

A shimmering beacon of faith and personal reflection. Crafted from platinum embraced™ over sterling silver, this cross pendant boasts five jet black simulated onyx. This piece also features gleaming white simulated diamonds throughout the cross for contrast. An ideal gift for a confirmation, birthday or holiday!
Platinum Plating:
Platinum can be used as a finish coating over sterling silver or copper alloys. Its bright, pure luster enhances the brilliance of gemstones and does not discolor or oxidize. Platinum plating is also characterized by its good resistance to surface abrasion, making jewelry pieces more durable against everyday and long-term wear. Over time, platinum plating will wear off and therefore will require re-plating.
To care for your plated jewelry items:
On the Mohs Scale, which measures the hardness of minerals, cubic zirconia is an 8.0 to 8.5. It is important to understand that hardness is not necessarily related to durability. Even though diamond is the hardest mineral (10.0 on the Mohs Scale), it can still be chipped or broken.
The only ways to tell the difference between cubic zirconia and diamond are by use of a thermal probe, by weighing the loose stone or by microscopic examination of surface features and inclusions. Cubic zirconia weighs approximately 65% more than diamond. Therefore, while a 6.25 mm round diamond weighs about 1.00 carat, the same size cubic zirconia weighs about 1.65 carats. If you know the weight of a cubic zirconia, you can figure out the diamond weight equivalent by multiplying the cubic zirconia weight by 0.6, or 60%.
Few natural diamonds on the market today are perfectly cut, and those that are cost much more than the usual diamond. Unleashing the fire, beauty and brilliance of a stone depends on its precise cut. Simulated diamonds are an excellent balance between quality, beauty and price.
Brilliance: The white light leaving a jewel, traveling upward, which is visible to the eye. Brilliance is sometimes referred to as "sparkle."
Dispersion: Flashes of rainbow colors. Also called "fire."
Hardness: Resistance to scratching. The higher the number, the more resistant.
Luster: The shininess of a jewel.
Toughness: Resistance to breakage.
Created or simulated gemstones:
How are created or simulated gemstones different from natural gemstones? Natural gems are created by the forces of nature and must be discovered, usually by digging in the ground or sifting through a riverbed. When these stones are created in a laboratory, they are called created, simulated or synthetic gemstones.
The purpose of creating gemstones in a laboratory isn't necessarily to reduce the cost, but also to produce larger, more perfectly consistent stones. Created or simulated gems can be made of any material. Synthetic gems, however, share virtually all chemical, optical and physical characteristics of their natural mineral counterparts.
Austrian crystals: These are known for their excellent reflective quality and prismatic brilliance. This man-made crystal is created using natural minerals and quartz sand, which are then heated and slowly cooled using a process similar to that of creating hand-blown glass. This process creates an end product that can be fashioned into a beautiful crystal.
A special machine is used to create a highly faceted crystal. The crystals are cut in various directions, which allows for excellent light refraction, exceptional brilliance and unsurpassed color quality at an affordable price.
Today Swarovski® is one of the largest suppliers of high-end crystals. In the late 1800s, Daniel Swarovski invented a machine to cut crystal with extreme precision. He patented his technique and to this day, only select Swarovski family members and employees have unrestricted access to the production facility that creates these crystals. They are used to decorate everything from stilettos and sculptures, to chandeliers, jewelry and clothing.

There are other leggings made of plain old cotton and then there's Agoo Leggings. They only wish they could be as soft and comfy as their bamboo competition.
These are a must for any baby carrying mama/papa out there with fall around the corner you will want bebe's legs covered and snuggly warm when in a carrier because as you know when in the carrier there's always that little bit of calf/ankle exposed.
What I like about these in particular since I'm on a bamboo kick is they are made of eco friendly, 100% sustainable bamboo. One size fits all and they are so soft! When my son wears them I like the softeness factor, the size of them too. He will get years of use out them. No red marks around his thighs and they are beyond cute on him.
They also have clothing for your kids as well and all have a UV protection of 50, to learn more click here. It's actually quite neat what they have created for the ultimate style and quality in infant/children clothing.
I also love them because they are Canadian and their products ROCK!
Agoo Leggings
Another tidbit for the mom to be or new parents, when changing baby he/she'll be a little less unsettled when you have Leg Huggers on by Agoo. Remember, baby gets cold when you remove that onesie one of the causes for those piercing cries besides being scared; nothing like the gentle touch of a parents hand on their tummy and Agoo leggings to keep their legs warm.

Central Texas Kolaches
For a taste of the Czech Republic in the States, head to East Central Texas, home to a massive kolache following. These pastries are traditionally flat and filled with fruit, but Lone Star denizens have put their own stamp on them with a meat-stuffed, savory adaptation as well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Hings Coverage I love my new phone case. I perfer the rubber cases over the hard covers, and this one is great. Understated elegance for the iphone. September 4, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by SarahC Not worth the money...even when it's on sale I hadn't even had this case for a week when the flimsy material it's made of started to tear around the edges. Now I can't even keep it from sliding off my phone. It's very cute, but I wouldn't recommend wasting your money on it. August 27, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Cartie22 Looks Great I have the white iPhone5 and purchased the navy blue case. I have gotten a lot of compliments! I like that the case is not too bulky as well. July 31, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Charncgirl Nice color and fit The case is a nice bright color, which makes your phone easy to locate and differentiate from others. Able to take it on and off quickly is also a plus. July 7, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by JenW86 Love the look, but disappointed by quality I bought this case in February and it's already so stretched out. I don't feel like it protects my phone any longer because it comes off so easily. I love the design, but I'm so disappointed by the quality. For the price, it should have held up more than four months. June 10, 2013

Time Out says
Posted: Thu Mar 29 2012
No one knows what to do with newspapers these days. They kill trees, get your fingers smeary and, in the event their stories are actually true, lag behind the Internet. Anyone who works at a daily (or even—gulp!—a weekly) frets constantly about impending obsolescence. So imagine what a joy it is to see the dear old things so gainfully employed in Disney's barnstorming, four-alarm delight Newsies. The "papes," as they're called by the show's scrappy New Yawk street hawkers, are indispensable props. They're stuffed greedily into sacks, hurled as missiles during fights, even spread on the floor for an impromptu dance surface. But it's not just the clever recycling of tabloid sheets that endears you to this bright, invigorating extravaganza: Not since Wicked has there been a big-tent, family-friendly Broadway musical that gets so much so right.
Set during the city's newsboy strike in the summer of 1899, Newsies takes the diverting Disney film and adds extra tunes and many more high-jumping dances for the spunky male ensemble. The Alan Menken–Jack Feldman score pleasingly blends music-hall orchestral swing and power pop, and Feldman's lyrics are more graceful than you'd expect from a show aimed primarily at tweens. Harvey Fierstein's book brims with sass and big-hearted sympathy for the underdog. And director Jeff Calhoun's designers balance a gray-brown palette with splashes of color (mostly from costumes), creating grit to rub up against the material's built-in melodrama and sentimentality.
Jeremy Jordan is a charismatic wonder in the lead role of Jack Kelly, the kindhearted teen who dreams of escaping to Santa Fe but accepts the mantle of hero, unionizing the newsies and standing up to antilabor magnate Joseph Pulitzer (John Dossett, squeezing notes of subtlety from a villain role). Old-fashioned book musicals with pluck, brains and heart are so rare these days; when you see one as blissfully fun as Newsies, it belongs on the front page in 72-point type.—David Cote

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

The Sassy Spin Shine Rattle has bold and contrasting colours to help your little one to focus and a shiny mirror for eye catching stimulus. The Spin Shine Rattle has a variety of textures to explore with hand and mouth and will keep your little one entertained for hours
This rattle didn't make a traditional rattling sound at all, in fact there's nothing in the rattle heads to do so, it shouldn't be called a rattle, should be called a visual stimulator, my daughter likes to shake things, so the fact that it did t make a noise disappointed her a bit.
Both of my 7 week old girls are fascinated by this rattle.
My little girl loves this. She wouldn't let it go. Colours are lovely and catch her attention.
My 6 month old loves this he's amazed by it :)
Good little toy. My 4 month old loves it, she stares at the black and white end and shakes it to make the plastic rings rattle. Only negative is she tries to put it in her mouth to chew as she is teething but the ends are too big.

Funeral details will not be known until tomorrow, but it is looking like next Monday.
Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her.She has been suffering from cancer for 5 years now. It was extremely aggresive and the cancer plus the treatments disabled her and caused her a great amount of pain. She is suffering no longer.
I especially ask prayers for my nephew, Matthew. He is 13 and has some special needs. Simone adopted him because she couldn't bare to see another minority child with special needs bounce from foster home to foster home. He doesn't understand what has happened and it will take him a good deal of time to realize that his mother isn't coming home from the hospital this time. He will be staying with my parents for the foreseeable future.
Thank you all for your prayers.
In addition, Gerry Hince (the Director of RCIA) lost her mother this week. Julia Agnes McGuire May, 89, passed away Sunday, and the funeral will be this Thursday, at St. Mary's at noon. You can read the obituary here.

Bloogan sounded barbaric and tough i originally though of it for champions of Norrath i liked it so much it stuck
Printable View
Bloogan sounded barbaric and tough i originally though of it for champions of Norrath i liked it so much it stuck
Being a feral druid I wanted to incorporate being a predator with being a shape shifter with being a king of the jungle. And yes I was a transformer fan when I was young.
So Predakhan seemed to fit all three.
Warrior: I started the game with about four or five friends who wanted to roll together on a PvP server. I wanted to roll a a rogue, but a friend who had been playing as a warrior at the time said I needed to make a warrior, they were incredible, he was making a healer, ect. I had no interest in playing a warrior, or tanking, but ended up rolling it and the name came into play because we all had names that had the 'tion' Commotion, Aggravation, Redemption. I got stuck with Termination..and yes, I heard all the jokes. When I switched servers, I renamed him after my nephew who was just born about a week prior, Caleb..and when I faction changed him to Horde, he became Mance, ripped shamelessly from the Song of Ice and Fire series.
Paladin: Kantele. Taken from a song of the same name by Amorphis.
Rogue: My original Rogue name was Caesh, a name of a character from a story a friend of mine was writing, when I stopped playing Alliance, I rolled another rogue and named him Asarel, which I got from the same friend on account that I pretty much fail at coming up with names.
Mage: Cyrael was basically just a slight alteration of something that popped up on the random generator. Leveled him to 80 and the very first raid I went on, he was dubbed Cereal and it stuck.
DK: Like my rogue his name came from a story a friend of mine wrote, I found out later that Valesh was also something that pops up when the Alliance are yellin'.
For supermassive bosses you need someone who is supermassive enough to take supermassive hits.
So I named my toon Kaityperry.
i suck with names so i use randoms that pops in my mind :P
theoneuhate - kickazz warrior
iambehindyou- rogue xD
bangbang- a huntard hehe
I've had a lot of different names for forums and MMORPGs. Runescape, I was EvelynNyht, which was a common username I had for a forum I used to frequent. But the name didn't seem right as I grew out of that character. So I researched Horde races and classes that I'd enjoy the most. Paladin was what fit my personality and naturally blood elf was the only option. So I pulled out my elven name generator sheet I'd kept around as well as the Tolkien elven dictionary I had printed out. Aelela (eye-lee-la) is "Knight Hawk." The rest of my toons all end with -ela "hawk."
As for lilmissy4205, no it doesn't have anything to do with 420. Fourty-two is the answer to the universe and 05 is my grad year from high school. As for lil missy, I'm 5'2" and obviously a girl, thus the lil missy part. And it was a nickname one of my theatre "family members" had for me while I was growing up.
Tankard... I'm a dwarf, I tank, I drink... Nuff said.
Random name generator. All of 'em. Sometimes it's harder picking the right name than it is designing the character's look.
I got roped into wow and a bunch of friend rerolled on blackrock to level with me.
At the time I had no idea what any of the classes really did or played like. So I went with the most simple analogy from WC3 I could find... Tauren Warrior. Then clicking through the skin patterns I saw one that was roan. Which triggered the pun: Roan Ranger off of the Lone Ranger. Sadly, none of my friends play or all play elsewhere now, so my toon did end up alone. Sadly, also playing on a pacific/oceanic server a lot of people assume it's some sort of racist joke against asian accents or what not. I usually tell them to go look up what roan is and they feel pretty stupid afterwards though (most of them aren't offended so much as wanting to hate on asians so I like shutting them up).
Since then, all my alts have had lame puns as well.
Greencloud - orc shaman, pun off Red Cloud
Bellringer - troll dk, I found her ugly like Quasimodo and I guess she's meant to ring people's bell...
Subarctic - frost mage naturally
Then there's Kelzaral - a undead warlock I named after an demonic/possessed dwarf sorcerer from this game called Confrontation.
It pop'd in my head at the character creation screen.
The place where you loose your self and find yourself
Karleigh: from a baby name book, means "Little and womanly" French; Also now played in a D&D 3.5 game.
Linlori: derived from a program called Tablemaster; Linlori Merliniel is her full name, and was first played as a half-elven mage in an online, play-by-post 2nd ed AD&D game. I now play her in a 3.5 D&D game as well.
Sillenael- another name derived from Tablemaster; named for Silael Lirrinil (known to humans as Silverlight), moon elven priestess of Sehanine Moonbow, as played in a play-by-post 2nd ed AD&D game.
Hi All,
This is my first post on Tankspot. Thought it would be appropriate to start with some exposition.
Glampyre, my Death Knight (and new Main) is the reanimated then emancipated form of my Warlock Glamdrella. They look the same except for the undead motif on Glampyre. Same face,hair, etc. Fun factoid here : I am 10% RP nerd. There is a whole back story to it and lineage woven into WoW lore. (ok maybe 50%) I could go on and on...
Glamdrella was first created in the CoN milleu on PS2 where I played a Shadowknight (might as well have been called a Death Knight). When I was on the CC screen I thought well now.. she is kinda hot and a bit scary therefore the Glam, short for Glamourous, and Drella derivitive of Vampirella.
Glamdrella challenged the minions of the Lich King and, through sheer coincidence, while at Scholomance on a scouring mission, she crossed paths with what was once Arthas. Brave from the Start, Defiant to the last! such was her epitaph. Her doom was sealed. For 15 years she had served at the Fallen One's feet after he struck her down with a single blow. Arthas gave her life again, but, not real life ... the life of a thrall. A hidden gift he also gave her, in addition to the awesome Death Knight powers the gift of Hate. Mairelle "Glam" Lifeseed
born a nature-loving, inquisitive, poetic soul was now empowered with the burning rage of a thousand scorned psyches. Armed thusly and with a connection to nature born in her blood as a half elf. She reclaimed her freedom and became Glampyre Hateseed, ronin Death Knight with nothing but vengence on her mind.
or something like that..
P.S. I am a male that play female toons,because, if I have to look at someones backside all day it will be a girl:)
Fastous (Slightly modified for asthetic purposes)
1.haughty; arrogant.
Kargun, my main, is a dwarf hunter and I thought the name sounded kinda Dwarfish :S
Same concept for my Dwarf DK - Baelgrun. Amusingly, discovered AFTER creating him that there is a Baelgun's dig site and that there is now a crossbow named after it. My main had a crossbow for a while which was sort of named like my alt.
My female dwarf paladin is called Damnfugly, because, well, its a female dwarf and therefore pretty damn f***kin ugly.
Mine comes from Dungeons & Dragons. Kas the Bloody Handed or Kas the Betrayer was the second in command for Vecna a powerful Lich who eventually became a God. One day Kas turned on Vecna and using the sword the Lich forged for him took his hand and eye (which are now popular artifacts in the game) the result was Kas was banished to the Plane of Shadows, where he became a Vampiric Death Knight.
A little fudging with the letters and I became Khaas the Blood DK.
My first toon was a paladin I made on my brother's account before I had one. His name was Shifalier, based on "shifa," which means health in Urdu, a language I speak a bit from living in Pakistan for a while. When I got a guest pass and made my own toon it was a Tauren warrior, named Serrmarna, which basically means "headbasher" in the same language. But I was a utter noob and didn't really understand servers and factions when I made him on a different server and all my bros toons were alliance, so I switched and made another paladin. His name is Alkatractite, which I think was inspired in part by the random name generator, but sadly I don't remember. Nowadays I try to name all my toons with an "alk" or "alka" portion and then something that relates to the class. Like my shaman is "Alkatotem," and my dk (not sure if I'll ever get him to 80, 65 now just for professions) is "Obliteralka."
Paulbunyin- based off the old Tall tale. I like stories and I figured a Axe wielding warrior named after the character in the tall tale would be cool. I made this toon in TBC cause my guild at the time had no room for my hunter in raids really and they needed tanks, so I rerolled this warrior. I tanked in TBC, and in WOTLK I've done almost nothing but DPS on him. Lolz
IBjammin- My troll Hunter. He be jammin mon!!! Originally this toon was named Belloq cause i was watching Indian Jones at the time and the villian in the lost Ark is Dr. Rene Belloq. Shrug. But this character was a character I played in Vanilla wow on a pvp server for a long time. When burning crusade came out I switched servers to play with some friends and Belloq was taken.......weird. So.... IBjammin I thought was a funny name for a troll hunter. I might add his pet now is a Wolf named IBhowling.
Maggotcow- He's a DK, and a Cow. So he's a dead cow. With maggots. I have no idea i just decided to make this toon cause I wasn't tanking on Paul really. Tanking became his offspec. I wanted to try tanking as another class and a big dead cow DW frost tank appealed to me.
Tygrasvoth- My first toon in wow. Played him in vanilla wow for a long time. He was alliance human Pally. This character name came from a Jedi I played in westend games old Star Wars d6. When I came back to playing wow when TBC came out everyone I knew was gone or was now playing Horde. So I left this guy rotting on the shelf and played my hunter and my warrior in TBC.
I have plans to resurrect this guy in Cataclysm. I already have his name saved for when I faction change and transfer.
He will be Supremebeef the mighty cow paladin in Cataclysm.
I also plan on making a Goblin rogue for Cataclysm. But I haven't come up with a name yet.
I tend to go for (attempted) funny puns with most of my names. If not, then something descriptive of who/what they are.
Carchaser- my very very first character, a dwarf warrior. His name was an inside joke/hint for my then-girlfriend (now wife) that convinced me to start playing. She didn't know I had started playing (because I had swore that I'd never play, seeing as how I had been a hardcore/dedicated console gamer for my entire life) and his name was to be a clue that I wasn't just some random guy asking her for help. I originally made a warrior because in all previous RPGs of any kind, I always played a magic-user, because it was what interested me the most. My girlfriend knew this, so that was part of why I chose the warrior, to assist with the ruse. The other part of why I chose him was because I wanted to try to be a melee class. It didn't work out and he rotted at lvl 6 because I was terribad at the game and a complete noob.
Aljahzra- Gnome Mage. My second character, after I gave up on the warrior. The name just sounded mage-y, which is what I was going for. It's mostly an amalgam of various names from different fantasy books that I've read. Retired and deleted a while ago while I was cleaning up my list of toons.
Puufbgaun- Night Elf Rogue. I made this one to level with my gf. If you don't get the name, just sound it out. My last Alliance character.
Raszahk- Undead Warlock. My first Horde character, and my main all the way from the middle of vanilla up until Wrath dropped. I was trying to think of something that sounded dead and evil, and this is what came out. It is still the only one that shows up on the Armory, so it makes me smile knowing I actually created something unique.
Soylent- Tauren DK. Slightly altered from "Soilent" because Soilent was already taken. It's a green Tauren, so, Soilent Green. If you're still confused, just google Soilent Green. **Beware of Spoilers if you ever plan on reading Soilent Green**
Gnomepunter-->Grassmuncher-->Sunderwear-->Sunderwhere- Ah, my main squeeze ever since Wrath dropped. Originally started as an alt character before I started raiding in BC. I was getting bored of playing my warlock all the time, and since I didn't raid, I had plenty of time to start a new character (I had previously ONLY played my 'lock). I wanted the alt to be as far from a 'lock as possible, so I chose a warrior. I also wanted to be unique with my warrior, so I chose a Female Tauren, because I had never seen a Female Tauren Warrior. Amazingly, Gnomepunter wasn't taken, so I nabbed it. Got her to 70 after a long while, then ended up Xferring servers, and had to rename her. I ended up taking Grassmuncher because I got stumped...and it's a female cow. I had never thought of the drug implications until I was messaged by a few different people asking about that. AAAANyway, got Grassmuncher into raiding and started gearing her up. My raiding guild all transferred away after it fell apart, so I went with my other friend to a different server. I didn't want to keep Grassmuncher, so my friend came up with Sunderwear, which I thought was appropriately hilarious and took it. I ended up moving to Germany and, in the process, finding all my old raiding group that had fallen apart before (they were all Euro/US night-shift players). Sunderwear was taken on the new server, so I altered it a little bit and Sunderwhere the DPS warrior that never tanked was born. Easily the most fitting name for her. She became my main once I Xferred to Archimonde because I ended up getting her better gear than my warlock, who got stuck in-between tiers during BC.
Twyggdrasil- My druid that I'm levelling that will be my first healer. Named for Yggdrasil, the Norse World Tree. What better name for a Tree Druid that Twygg(Twig)drasil, not quite as powerful a life force as the all-mighty World Tree, but as powerful as a small piece of it, maybe...
I'm pretty straightforward; take my real name, spell it backwards, get Eloc.
My alts are generally a variation on that, like Elok or Elocia.
When I'm about to name a char, I normally spend a few minutes looking up variations of Greek Gods/Titans and using them. They always seem to be taken, so I opt for random names which end up being quite nice :)

Suzuki shows slushy Super Bowl commercial in advance
by Jeff Sabatini (RSS feed) on Jan 26th, 2012 at 12:30PM
You won't have to wait until February 5 to see the new Suzuki Super Bowl commercial, as it's hit the automaker's YouTube channel in advance. Featuring an Eskimo who trades in his sled on an all-wheel-drive Kizashi, it's fun and decidedly more upbeat than last year's marauding snowmen. Still, we kind of prefer the snowmen, which were more unconventional than the Eskimo ad's predictable plot. This year's ad also embraces two of the major Super Bowl ad tropes of recent years: adorable dogs and bickering couples. Neither of which is likely to win Suzuki any points for creativity. Regardless,... Read More

Lore, just checking here, but I think you're jumping to conclusions a little with your economics.
The BMAH is meant to be a gold sink. It is not meant for everyone, it is meant for the top end gold makers, with multiple gold caps to their name. Blizzard doesn't care if they only get a few sales on there, just as long as they go for big $.
Because of that, it cannot be between players like the normal AH. As far as I can tell (and correct me if I'm wrong, please, I'm not in beta), but it appears that players may only bid for items. They cannot *post* items.
Therefore, items posted on the BMAH will not be subject to normal economic pressures. Trade Prince Gallywix does not *care* if no one buys his stuff, because he is an NPC and it is really Blizzard putting up pixels to 1) destroy as much gold as they can and 2) give auctioneers a reward for destroying their hard earned gold.
We will not see prices rising and falling due to market pressures (only indirectly, and only on the real AH, through the downward effect on inflation, which is the point of a gold sink), because Blizzard is outside of those (in-game) market pressures. The normal way a buyer puts pressure on a seller (not buying) has no effect on Blizzard (in-game) because it costs them nothing to create the items in the first place.
So, no 5,000-10,000 gold HM pieces.
I agree that HM gear or mounts should not be on the BMAH, but I am not worried that stuff will be excessively cheap due to supply and demand...because there won't BE supply and demand.

About me and my passion for cars
It all began as a very young kid when Matchbox were producing hot rod style Dinky toys & Monogram models. Then, as a teenager, a local car club 'Fine City Vans' would meet at La Rouen public house in my home town. It wasn't just vans that turned up, but anything with an 8.
I had to wait for many, many years before I could afford to own something like these guys had, but I'm finally there with a 1952 Dodge Pick-Up. It has a 4" roof chop & is powered by a Chevy 350. I've spent the last year & lots of money on her, but it's well worth it.

ShapeThis plum has rounded shape.
The Mexican Plum has beautiful fragrant white blooms and is a good tree for residential landscapes. It makes a nice understory tree with somewhat thorny branches.
Mexican Plum should be grown in full sun or partial shade on well-drained, rich soil but will tolerate almost any soil. It is quite drought-tolerant once established. This small tree is well suited for residential landscapes, and is especially popular in Texas. It might be best to locate the tree back from the edge of a patio, deck or walk since the fruits can be a little messy for a short period in the summer or early fall. Planted in the lawn or in a bed of low-growing ground cover, fruits drop unnoticed and are of no concern. The tree can be a `show stopper' when it is in bloom. It makes a nice tree for planting near power lines due to its small size.
Wildlife Value
The fruits of the Mexican Plum are eaten by several species of bird. The tree itself provides nesting sites and materials for birds, also. Its blossoms provide food for insects such as bees.
The roots of the Mexican Plum have been used as rootstock for commercial plum production in the past.
The Mexican Plum tolerates wet sites, but does best in well-drained areas that do not experience severe drought.
The leaves of the Mexican Plum are green in summer and showy orange in the fall.
Flower Color
The blooms of the Mexican Plum are white and quite showy.
Bloom Time
The Mexican Plum blooms in February and March.
Fruit Description
The Mexican Plum produces a small, showy red fruit.
Rate of growth refers to the vertical increase in growth unless specified differently. Rate, as is true for size, is influenced by numerous variables such as soil, drainage, water, fertility, light, exposure, ad infinitum. The designation slow means the plant grows 12" or less per year; medium refers to 13 to 24" of growth per year; and fast to 25" or greater.Manual of Woody Landscape Plants, by Michael Dirr.
