4e rule changes
6 Years, 11 Months ago
2 posts threaded together from D&DContact that has some more info on 4e that I hadn't heard before:
> I would agree with this. Many of the changes I have
> heard fix things which I never perceived to be
> problems.
I agree whole-heartedly. And as a true-to-heart
traditionalist, I am appalled at the concept that a
paladin will no longer need to be LG. Sure I believe
there should be "holy warriors" for religions that are
not LG, but why not develop a different character
concept with a different attitude and different
ability trees. Afterall, they're doing this for the
implementation of character classes such as warlock,
warlord to expand upon the wizard. There's already an
"evil paladin" called the blackguard - why not add in
a neutral or chaotic one called a crusader or
something. Furthermore, I am disappointed that they
opted to add Tiefling as a core race (notorious for
its fiendish heritage and being roguish, troublesome
etc) but not have the wherewithall to balance it out
by adding in an Aasimar as core as well. The
Tiefling is the new Drow.
Another thing I dont like is the fact that there will
be 3 players handbook - and you'll need all three in
order to get access to all the core races and classes.
Each book will only introduce a few of them, so
instead of 30 bucks for one PHB you'll need to spend
90 bucks!

Other examples include getting rid of power attack
(too powerful according to them), changing the spell
level system - theres no more 1-9 level spells - now
spells are levelled 1-20.

Dumbed down is the right way to say it. Not to
mention that they opted to keep the same names of the
gods, but changed them around a lot - got rid of gods
like "Agriculture" and such - because "clerics of
agriculture are not known for wanting to become
adventures" I guess they feel that gamers can no
longer conceive of creative ways of coming up with
storylines, and they couldn't come up with NEW gods,
so they just re-used the same names and changed the
gods around. Dumbed down is right.
You and many others I've seen post frustration here
and on the Paizo board about EnWorld seeming to squash
any negativity posted about upcoming 4th Ed. Morris,
who owns EnWorld was seen cavorting and being given
the "royal treatment" by Wizards staff at Gen Con 07,
and many believe that he is getting some serious
kick-back by being the front-runner for "outside"
advertisement and "non-biased" reviews. Yet many have
been threatened to be kicked off the EnWorld site, and
many posts with negative opinions have been removed
from the messageboards. Thats why Paizo seems to have
the best source for the "Cons" of upcoming 4th.

I'll play 3.5 for a long while still. I have enough
printed material by the good adventure publishers of
Necromancer, Fantasy Flight, Goodman Games and of
course Paizo to continue running games for several
years without ever running out of material.

I am chilling about all this. I will ignore the hype and the doom sayers and wait to read the product myself. If our group agrees, we will play test it. If it's better than 3.5, great, if not then we will be sticking with 3.5.
There is always Mongoose (Conan, Runequest, new Traveller) Games and old favourites like Call of Cthulhu, Mutants and Masterminds, Pendragon and others to look at.

im going along for the ride on 4th ed. If you dont like tieflings or other rules dont use them. I think the people who dont want 4th ed are worried that many will.
wicked cool

I like some of the new rules and dislike some of the new rules. Like all editions before it we developed home rules. For instance we do not like the roll or die spells/abilities because no matter how good of a player one is or how good of a role player 1 roll determines your fate. However in the spirit of the game we have had roll or die situations in which we lost one of our party members. We abondoned our quest adn went on a quest to save the other person from the afterlife. We all made it a choice that this kind of storyline would be fun. However knowing that, most of the time when I DM or someone from my original group we most likely do not put in roll or die spells. As for level drain we max it at 2 levels if the player is below 10th level and at 3 levels from 10th to 15th level and 4 levels 15th or above. This seemed to work for us. The character is not to weak to continue with the group and moves up a lot quicker due to the more XP granted etc. So we played around it. I am intrigued with the choices aspect that they are trying to bring to DND. I am not intrigued with the Video Game attributes they are bringing to the game. With that said if the choices out weigh the video game stuff then cool. By video game stuff I mean the dumbing down others refer to. I agree that WOTC is trying to move away from drow and move towards tieflings. Not sure why other than they can not control drow storylines, pop culture etc. Tieflings they can. More races, more classes is ok for me. It saves me money buying supplements to get other races, classes etc. All in All I will continue to run 3.5 games as most of my players are nay sayers to 4th ed., but I will purchase the material and look for a game to either run or play in within 2 months of all the books coming out.

Shadox -
Didn't your group simply use Restoration or Greater Restoration to restore levels lost to energy drain? That was one of my beefs with 3x edition D&D - they stuck these spells in there to easily remove ability point and level drains!
I'll probably purchase the PH, but from what I'm hearing, that will only be SOME of the races and classes - the rest will be released in subsequent installments of the PH over several years......sounds like it is not the same as the Complete Splat books from 3x edition but rather a withholding of core material from the first PH to extort more money from players....

I'm still running 3.0 - and still having fun with it.
Hey, my games still draw gamers at Shore Leave; when our group gets together at home, we still have fun. I still enjoy buying, customizing, and collecting DF.
Who needs 3.5, 4.x, or whatever?

That assumes we were campaigning with a cleric. Restoration only restores 1 level and if I remember correctly only the day you get drained? Could be wrong on that. Greater restoration is good but is a 7th level cleric spell which is I think a 14th level cleric before they can cast more than 1 or 2. Most of the folks in my party will take greater cure serious wounds mass and/or resurrection so I loose. :-( I guess if we had a cleric it would be ok. Then again we do not always have a cleric. In the end I guess it works, the mechanics, it is just a house rule that we made.

I always try to keep an open mind. I do remember back in the old days when the new "Advanced" Dungeons & Dragons came out. As a player, I was leery of the new books, which seemed to drip with Gygax's egoisms. But, in time, I put aside my misgivings and went with it, in part because it was clear the the tide had turned, and the large majority of D&D players had made the change. Still, like most, I modified or replaced those rules that I felt did not work for my campaign.
When 2nd edition came out, I welcomed the change. It was a chance to breathe fresh life into the old game, and it gave players some new options, like Thieves getting to assign their skills instead of a single chart by level. As before, I and my friends modified or replaced those rules that we didn't like, and we played and had fun. The same went with 3.0 and 3.5.
The new edition will likely have some elements that I will enjoy. If the information is correct, it seems that all classes are getting abilities usable X times per day, per encounter, or at will. I like flexibility and freedom, and will likely find favor with this. Some elements I don't think I'll like, and I'll modify or replace those elements.
The critical hit system, as described, seems very bland and boring. Max damage on a natural 20 is, in my mind, a "nerf" that D&D doesn't need. Yep, I've killed PCs with critical hits (Ogres with battleaxes are nasty), but without the threat of death, victory is hollow and meaningless. So, I'll likely not use the new critical system. Oh, and I don't mind confirmation rolls because my players have breated hearty sighs of relief when an enemy's critical threat failed to confirm. I just don't think that any attack on an opponent that needs a 20 to hit should be an automatic critical. That's just my preference; your mileage may vary.
I do wish that WotC wasn't so secretive about the process, though. I'd much prefer that they took the time to get feedback on the design elements, so that they can find out what we, the players and GMs, want and don't want.

Wow, 4th (5th really) edition.
I was looking through my red box from the 1st ed of DnD where if you were an elf, dwarf, or halfling, that WAS your class. Other then that it had the fighter, thief, mage and cleric. 7 classes, 3 were races....
Then 1st ed, with the str 18(00) and the way they rules were organized, fun game, but it had gaps....
Skipped 2nd
I've played 3.0 since it came out, and switched to 3.5 and liked it better...
That said, the game DRAGS at higher level, when you have a fighter with 2 weapon fighting and improved critical at higher levels, and electrical dmg or what not, you are seriously keeping track of 4 or 5 attacks with sometimes 3 or 4 dice per attack and then rolling to confirm crits on them and rolling more damage dice, we are talking 12 or more dice, easily.
If 4th edition simplifies the game so that ONE battle does not take 45 minutes, then I'm all for it.
One example: Bull strength lasts 1 minute per level, so at 10 level, 10 minutes.
The fight takes 7 rounds, so the spell is active for 9 minutes and 18 seconds. So now someone should keep track of the spell and the parties activity just to see if the next fight starts in less then 10 minutes... which is annoying. So the DM says it just lasts this one battle anyways, cause its simpler. Player points out that that's not fair, the rules allow for use for the full time, an advantage of being a more powerful spell caster.... and so on.
New rule from 4th ed, from what I understand: Buff spells last the time of the combat. PERIOD.
There is too simple... but in my mind esoteric rules that create realism at the expense of playability suck.
A game can have simpler rules without being dumbed down.
Example: Chess.
Way simpler rules then half the board games in your game store. Try telling a chess master that his game is dumb.....
Anyhow, I'll be running the intro adventure with my DF stuff for 4 E in April, and I really believe that it will be better then 3.5.... Maybe I'll be wrong, but that's OK, I've got Tunnels and Trolls on my bookshelf if all else fails....

Celtchief Robert -
That's why I never even went to 3.5; I stuck with 3.0, and if a rule interfered with playability, so much for the rule.
Remember, the purpose of the game is to HAVE FUN; this is ONLY A GAME, and if you and your gamers agree that some rule is stupid, interferes with playability, and generally sucks the lifeblood and enjoyment OUT of Dungeons and Dragons, then the RULE GOES!
At least, that's how THIS DM plays it. And every year, I get gamers coming back to my table st Shore Leave; some who've never played D&D, and some who get their butts STOMPED every time, because they know they'll get a fair, honest, enjoyable game (either that, or they're really masochists of the first order, I'm never really SURE which!). And, I always manage to throw in a little twist SOMEWHERE that leaves them shaking their heads and saying "Howinhell did he manage to do THAT to me?"
Robert, I know I'm probably preaching to the choir here, but as a DM, you've gotta either leave 'em laughing, or leave 'em scratching their heads in confusion. While you pack up your stuff and RUN for the door!
The ONLY time you have to worry about the rules is when you're running an RPGA game, where Hasbro and WotC sits there with their own set of rulebooks for the current version and throws "THOU SHALT" all over the place. Otherwise, screw it AND them; the DM IS god.

Long Train Runnin'
Description: By Bus Stop
By Sho-T feat Brenda
And here we go
Down around the corner
A half a mile from here
You see them old trains runnin'
And you watch them disappear
Without love
Where would you be now
Without love....
Ooooh, where would you be right now
Finesse, and the lyrical master
Scream if you wanna go faster
Takin' a train to tha, the next station
On the dance floor rockin' the nation
The sound is comin' out now
So DJ, play the song loud
Dancin', I'll make your body rock
Long train runnin' and it won't stop
Like a piston, I keep on churnin'
Like a fire, I keep on burnin'
Dance around in the place
Let my DJ rock the place
Well, pistons keep on turnin'
And the wheels go round and round
And the steel rail bed holdin' hard
And the miles that they go down
Without love, without love
Where would you be right now, where would you be right now
Without love....
Here we go

Museo Archeologico Nazionale
This fascinating, world-class museum houses the Farnese collection of antiquities from Lazio and Campania and the incredible treasures of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Notable among these collections are the Farnese Hercules and the Farnese Bull, the largest known ancient sculpture. On the mezzanine level is the Alexander Mosaic and at the furthest end of the mezzanine floor is the Secret Room (Gabinetto Segreto). The intriguing collection contained here showcases erotic material found in the brothels, baths, houses and taverns of Pompeii and Herculaneum. The top section of the museum houses the Campanian wall paintings, well-preserved creations attesting to a mysterious past world. These are supported by a range of artefacts, in the form of glass, silver, ceramics, rope and even foodstuffs surviving from the Campanian cities of yesteryear. The remarkable collection is housed in a 17th-century building interesting in itself. Visitors should check ahead whether all the exhibits in the museum will be open to avoid disappointment as the most popular exhibits are subject to close at any time for restoration and maintenance work. Although a popular attraction in its own right, the museum is also a worthwhile stop if you plan to visit Pompeii as so many of its treasures are stored here.
Address: Piazza Museo Nazionale 18-19
Website: museoarcheologiconazionale.campaniabeniculturali.it
Telephone: +39 081 292 823

Last year, I bolted off to Jamaica. Before doing so, traded off a slew of scents, sold quite a few - donated quite a few to the local Salvation Army that assists people to get jobs.
In the recent months, I've been back in the US on a contract, then back to Jamaica and now back in the US!
Luckily, it's now over (I hope) and I've collected some scents that will probably go into storage or might be donated like so many before.
Bottles up for swap:
- I Profumi di Firenze Manto di Rugiada - 1.6oz/50ml ~95% Full, Cap (just received this on a trade, awesome scent, but just not for me)
- Montale Mango Manga - 1.7oz/50ml ~90% Full, Montale Branded Clip, Montale Pouch w/ circle rhinestone design
- Montale Fougeres Marine - 1.7oz/50ml ~70% Full, Montale Branded Clip
- L'Occitane Cade - 3.4oz/100ml ~95% Full, Cap, Box
- Bulgari Pour Homme Extreme - 1.7oz/50ml ~95% Full, Cap, Box
- Bulgari Pour Homme Soir - 1.7oz/50ml ~95% Full, Cap, Box
- L'Eau D'Issey Pour Homme (Summer 2013) - 4.2oz/125ml ~95% Full, Cap, Box
- Kenzo Homme Fresh - 1.7oz/50ml ~95% Full, Built-in Cap/Sprayer, Box
- Kenzo Power Cologne - 2.0oz/60ml ~95% Full, Cap, Box
- Kenzo Air - 3.0oz/90ml ~90% Full, Built-in Cap/Sprayer PENDING

- YSL Body Kouros - 3.3oz/100ml ~95% Full, Cap, Box
- Carolina Herrera for Men - 1.7oz/50ml ~95% Full, Cap, Box
- Juicy Couture Dirty English - 1.7oz/50ml ~90% Full, Cap
- Sean Jean Unforgivable Eau Fraiche (hard to find) - 4.2oz/125ml ~90% Full, Cap
- Sean Jean I Am King of Miami - 3.4oz/100ml ~95% Full, Cap, Box
- Creed Neroli Sauvage - 4.0oz/120ml ~85% Full, Cap (Lot CE1Y05)
- Xerjoff Casamorati Mefisto - 2.5oz/75ml ~90% Full, Cap, Golden Tassel (tbh, Xerjoff fills are questionable, but this is above the top of the shoulders & the Mefisto sticker started to come off on the upper left corner, I'll gladly show a picture to clarify)
- Hermes Terre D'Hermes EDT - 3.3oz/100ml ~90% Full, (built-in) Cap
- By Kilian Taste of Heaven - 7.5ml Travel Atomizer Refill, Cap*
For a trade, I'm just looking for something modern. Doesn't even have to be clean - just not a fan of powdery scents. The true goal for me is to lessen my bottle count. Multiple bottle (your) swaps for one of my bottles sorta defeat the purpose.
*I'd love to trade evenly for a By Kilian Atomizer Refill that I don't already have access to - already own Straight to Heaven, looking for others including Cruel Intentions or Back to Black amongst others...
Pictures are available per DM request and if you have zero (0) or lower feedback than I, please understand that you might have to send first. Swaps that use USPS and offer tracking numbers is indeed a welcome thing.
— More swaps will to be listed in a bit perhaps. And if you want pictures, DM me please —

One designer Lopez hadn't worked with before was Oscar de la Renta, who was delighted to bring her back to an environment both of them know well. "Jennifer's Latin flair and her extraordinary sense of self come across in everything she wears," he says. "We are both proud exponents of where we came from, which is why we chose Washington Heights"a heavily Latino neighborhood in uptown Manhattan"for the shoot location." Though Lopez is originally from the Bronx's Castle Hill neighborhood, it was still a trip down memory lane. "We were in the hoody!" she says. "All kinds of locals hanging out, eating out of paper bags, thinking, What's going on around here? It was crazy."
It was the type of neighborhood where Lopez first honed the style sense that would make Michael Kors see her as a born fashion editor. ("She is curious about what's new and what's next," he says, "but at the same time she knows how to edit perfectly for her look and lifestyle.") At 14, she saw a "Lucky Star"era Madonna and realized what clothes could become. "It occurred to me for the first time that you can take sweatshirts and cut them up," Lopez says. "It was about expressing yourself in a sense, trying different things." So she and her junior high girlfriends took the Bronx by storm in "webo pants"loose-fitting drawstring pants favored by dancemusic fansand gladiator sandals. "I wear the Roman sandals now," she says, laughing, "and fashion people don't even realize how Bronx this was in the '80s!"
Her love for couture would come later. In the mid-'90s, after In Living Color but before recording her first albumwhen she was making "enough to say I was a working actress, but not enough to do much except live in the Valley"Lopez went to Los Angeles' Beverly Center mall, "looking for something for the little bit of shekels I had at the time." In the Shauna Stein boutique, she saw a black Dolce & Gabbana dress that would change her life: "Cut spaghetti straps, tight to the waist, all the way pencil down below the knees, split in the back, just the perfect black dress," she says. "For me, being a curvy person, a lot of times it was like, the waist is big or the hips were too tight, or whatever." She bought it on layaway for $1,095, then wore it to every audition.
It was her first splurge. "Jennifer loves beautiful things," says footwear designer Brian Atwood, who created shoes for her for the 2006 Academy Awards and for this story. "And it's through that appreciation that she has cultivated her look." Even during the first six months of pregnancy, Lopez was costume-changing her way around the world on tour with Anthonyand when she finally holed up for her third trimester, she somehow saw it as a fashion opportunity: "I was like, How am I going to rock this moment of my life?" In early February, roughly two weeks before the twins were born, she commissioned photographer Tony Duran to shoot a book of her as a Valentine's gift for Anthony. She has an assistant bring in the book. It is oversize, lushly shot, and frankly looks like the sexiest maternity catalog in existence: Jennifer in full makeup, hair done up, wearing long cashmere sweaters pulled up to expose her nigh-to-bursting belly. "I felt very womanly," she says. "Marc was in a dream. He loved it."

Updated Republic Wireless Review – Moto X and Moto G
I first wrote about Republic Wireless several months ago when my parents were looking to dump their AT&T family plan. To recap:
Republic Wireless is an awesome company that I first found when doing research for my post on the cheapest cell phone providers. The founders had the crazy idea that they could utilize a high speed internet connection to lower the usage of cellular data, and therefore lower the cost to end users. It worked.
They took the Android operating system and developed a custom firmware that integrates Wifi high speed internet and Sprint cellular towers. When you are in range of a Wifi broadband internet connection, Republic Wireless phones automatically make calls and send messages through the internet, which is very cheap to do. Once you are beyond Wifi range, the phone would automatically switch and use Sprint towers just like a traditional cell phone.
With new firmware configured, they launched a beta, then they brought the service to the masses. For unlimited talk, text, and data, the price was $19/month. Absurdly cheap.
This new service was configured for only one phone – the Motorola Defy XT (now extinct), and it had a few bugs that slowed growth. The transition from Wifi to cellular towers was buggy and sometimes resulted in dropped calls. MMS (multimedia messaging) also had problems and required an Android app to work in full capacity.
Republic Wireless Review 2.0
After those initial problems, Republic Wireless announced that the old service issues had been resolved and vastly improved. There are no more dropped calls in the Wifi to cellular transition and no more messaging problems. The service now works seamlessly.
They didn't stop there. They then proceeded to announce an all new lineup of plans and a new phone offering – The Motorola (Moto) X.
They began offering the Moto X with no contract whatsoever for the ridiculous price of $299. The same phone was selling for about $600 off-contract at any of the other major cellular providers, although that price has recently dropped a bit.
I won't do a full review of the Moto X, as that has been covered elsewhere, but I will share a few impressive specs:
- WiFi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac
- Android 4.4.2 firmware
- 4G LTE capability
- 4.7″ AMOLED™ 720p HD Touch Display
- X8 Mobile Computing System with
- 1.7 GHz Dual-Core Processor, Quad Core Graphic Unit, and 2GB RAM
- 16GB Internal Memory
- Integrated 2200mAh Lithium-ion battery, mixed usage up to 24 hours
- 1080p HD Video Capture & Playback
- 10 MP Camera w/ Auto-focus and LED Flash, 2 MP Front-Facing Camera
- Access to thousands of apps through Google Play
Cutting the Price in Half…Again
Just recently, Republic has once again upset the overpriced cell phone providers by offering a new phone to their lineup – the Moto G.
The Moto G comes in 2 varieties that vary only in storage capacity – 8GB ($149) and 16GB ($179). These are very nice phones that offer almost all of the same features as the Moto X, for half the price. Here is a comparison of the two:
If you don't know what any of that means, I'll sum up the important differences.
- The screen is actually slightly sharper on the Moto G, according to most reviewers.
- Performance is better on the Moto X, with a slightly faster processor and twice as much RAM. This difference will be almost nonexistent for 95% of users. Only high end games or extreme multitasking will allow the Moto X to shine.
- Camera is better on the Moto X.
- The Moto X has 4G LTE network access, but the Moto G can only do 3G.
- Battery life edge goes to the Moto G, primarily because 4G data eats juice.
- The Moto X has two extra features: active display and touchless control.Active display shows the date and time without unlucking the phone, immediately when you pick it up.
- Touchless Control lets you control your phone hands-free by speaking commands. Train your phone to recognize your voice, and it's always ready for the launch command, so it's ready to execute voice searches and unique device commands.
Your Choice of Plans
For these sweet new phones, Republic has 4 plans available.
- $5/month – This is unlimited usage on Wifi alone. No Sprint cellular usage
- $10/month – Unlimited talk and text on Sprint and Wifi. Data on Wifi only
- $25/month – Unlimited talk, text, and 3G data** on all networks
- $40/month – Unlimited talk, text, and 4G LTE data** on all networks
Republic will allow you to switch plans up to two times per month, and will prorate your bill accordingly. This change can be done at any time through the online dashboard on your Moto device.
For example, if you're always surrounded by Wi-Fi, you could choose the $5 or $10 plan. If you have an event planned and know that you'll need high-speed data, you could easily bump up to the $25 or $40 unlimited data plan, then back down again when you are ready. That's a sweet feature.
Or consider international travel. Republic makes it easy to downgrade to the $5/month WiFi only plan, which can successfully be used while traveling abroad. This is an outstanding feature for frequent travelers!
**While Republic Wireless does guarantee unlimited data usage in appropriate plans, there is a minor disclaimer. The terms of service permit Republic to reduce the data speed for a billing period if you exceed 5GB of data while using cell during the billing period. They also give you a break and will forgive you for exceeding 5GB of data once every 6 months as a courtesy.
The entire Republic structure is built on the idea of minimizing cellular usage. Prices are low because they expect users to utilize high speed Wifi connections whenever possible. If you download movies 8 hours per day on the Sprint network, they are going to lose money on your account, which is why they limit the total data usage.
Our Experience on Republic Wireless
Three different members of our family are currently on Republic Wireless plans. All are using the Moto X on the $10/month plan. It's amazingly cheap and a great option for those people who don't need data outside of a wireless high speed internet connection.
I've also been able to play around on the 3G and 4G networks. All in all, things are not perfect. I don't think the Sprint network is the greatest, and the 3G coverage can be spotty in various parts of the country. Wifi calling and texting seems to work quite well when in range, but we have still seen a few dropped calls when moving from Wifi to the cellular network. It doesn't happen all the time, but does happen.
That said, there really isn't anything else on the market that is a viable option at this price point, so we'll have to overlook the flaws and appreciate the continued improvement.
Republic Wireless Review Summary
There is nothing else on the market that can compete with Republic Wireless on a price basis right now. The new $149 smart phone and unlimited plans starting at $10/month make up for the few technical difficulties that we have experienced.
The unlimited plans are a great value if you always need data, but the $10/month plan is the best deal available for users who can stick with Wifi for data needs.
I think Republic is changing the game and I think they are doing consumers a huge favor in providing this service. With the recent changes and new phones, they offer an outstanding service.

R. J. Reynolds Center
R. J. Reynolds Center
Construction Date: 1983
Named For: Richard Joshua Reynolds
Dedicated on May 18, 1984, this 3.1 million dollar structure houses the School of Business, an academic computing center, fourteen classrooms, and a 209-seat lecture hall. The building was funded by a $2.1 million appropriation from the State of North Carolina, a portion of a $1 million gift from R.J. Reynolds Industries, and significant contributions from the Hanes Group, the Kresge Foundation, and Owen-Illinois Company.
Richard J. Reynolds, founder of the Winston-Salem based R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, was born July 20, 1850 in Patrick County, Virginia, to Hardin William and Nancy Cox Reynolds. As a result of his father's wealth as a merchant, farmer, and tobacco manufacturer, Reynolds received private tutoring and later attended Emory and Henry College. In 1874, Reynolds decided to expand his tobacco business, and bought a one hundred-foot piece of property from the Congregation of the United Brethren of Salem, easily accessible to the railroad system. There he built his first factory, a 38 x 40 ft. building beside the railroad to Greensboro. R.J. Reynolds frequently used the profits from his company to support philanthropic efforts, including donations to Slater Industrial Academy and Slater Hospital. Although Reynolds died July 29, 1918 after a long bout with pancreatic cancer, R.J. Reynolds Industries continued its founder's philanthropic vision.

So, I found a few random Skittles under the front seat of my car the other day, and, the scary thing is, I don't know when or where they're from. I'm really not that gross and don't usually eat in my car, but the thing is this: my car is 35 years old and things seem to get lost in it. Similar to those mysterious missing socks in the dryer, my car can gobbles things up like a sort-of mobile Bermuda Triangle.
And, since I've had my car since I was 16, there are some awesome artifacts that pop up. Things I've found most recently include: a Hello Kitty mechanical pencil, a 90s-era scrunchie, the Bob Marley Legend album I had on repeat in high school, that handful of Skittles, lots of change, an old Tortilla chip that I swear is completely my brother's fault.
I have no problem blaming my brother because, you see, he's had his habit of eating in my car ever since high school. I'd drive him to and fro and we'd hit up El Pollo Loco on a really regular basis. We'd go to because after a lucky car cushion scavenging session we'd have just enough change to hit up the El Pollo Dollar Menu, where we'd religiously order BRC (beans, rice, cheese) burritos.
Not that we don't still hit up EPL every so often, but I wanted to give my brother a recipe that was just as simple but healthier. Something you could throw together for a real meal in the midst of the holiday madness. Something that you could make ahead and nosh on whenever you finally take a break from tree trimming or gift wrapping.
That said, this month's Pretty. Easy. is my twist on the BRC, which is the BQC (beans, quinoa, cheese) taco. So, make some quinoa, keep some beans on hand, and then you'll be set to make this on the spot. And, if you've got friends or family coming over, take it up a notch and add in whatever you'd like — be it sautéed mushrooms, wilted greens, pulled pork, or just lots and lots of avocado.

"Nate Garnette is a fucking riff monster, churning out songs as catchy as they are unwaveringly ferocious, with the rest of the band rising to the challenge. New drummer Dustin Boltjes pushes the band to a new level of metallic heaviness, the band delivering their most blisteringly focused effort to date. Forever Abomination is firmly rooted in the metal world, one of the most creatively stifling genres out there. However, Skeletonwitch manage a uniquely fresh take on the genre and for the first time get a production job to match the intensity, courtesy of Matt Hyde. There isn�t a weak moment on the album. Forever Abomination is as much a statement as it is a cohesive set of songs. This is the sound of a band hungry for the next level, significantly upping their talents and strengths to get there. A definite contender for, if not the, metal album of the year. Skeletonwitch has arrived."

My daughter received a pair of these years ago as a party favor and she still uses them regularly when she pretends to be a puppy--they are still in perfect condition. Pretty impressive for an inexpensive party favor! We are hosting a vet-themed party ourselves and I was looking for a cute favor that would get used and not end up in the trash the next day. Thankfully, the ears we have had the Birthday Express logo on them, and they still carried them! The quality remains the same, and they are completely adorable!

Layer Cake
A middle-ranking cocaine dealer has his plans to take early retirement scuppered. Debut feature from Guy Ritchie's regular producer Matthew Vaughn, starring Daniel Craig.
Regular Guy Ritchie producer Matthew Vaughn steps out of Ritchie's shadow with this directorial debut, faithfully adapted by JJ Connolly from his own novel. Layer Cake is a more restrained affair than Ritchie's hyper-stylised debut Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels (1998) and his follow-up Snatch (2000), but still can't resist showing off with a belly-full of camera tricks, sketching a gallery of one-dimensional gangland thugs or choreographing designer violence to a well-timed pop song.
Vaughn's smartest move is casting Daniel Craig as the nameless narrator (let's call him Mr X), a small-time but smart coke dealer. Craig conveys his character's streetwise savvy with aplomb, using enough rough charm to ensure we're with him rather than against him. With the material on offer, Craig does a solid job - though compared to some of his previous performances, notably in Sylvia and The Mother, this is an undemanding role.
The trouble with Layer Cake is that it gets bogged down in a dense narrative. Dispensing with the archetypal rise-and-fall structure that drives most gangster films, it begins with a lengthy voiceover sequence in which Mr X introduces us to his world. Already as high as he wants to go, Mr X wants to quit the business and get out before he gets caught. Easier said than done.
Above him in the gangland hierarchy, kingpin Jimmy Price (Kenneth Cranham) enlists his help to find the missing daughter of an associate of his named Eddie Temple (Michael Gambon). Meanwhile, Mr X's sidekick Gene (Colm Meaney) has set up a deal involving a shipment of ecstasy - stolen by the unhinged JD (Jamie Foreman) from a gang of ruthless Serbians who have despatched an assassin to retrieve their goods. To complicate matters, there are further sub-plots - Mr X flirting with Tammy (Sienna Miller), flighty girlfriend to Sidney (Ben Whishaw), one of JD's gang members; Mr X's associate Morty (George Harris) brutally attacking a tramp who he knew once upon a time.
It's not that the story won't hold your attention. It's just, as with Ritchie's films, you'll have trouble remembering it within minutes of the credits rolling. At least it's less cocky and cartoon-like than its stable-mates, and as pure Friday night entertainment, Layer Cake delivers.

Distrify and The D-Word announce strategic partnership
Members of The D-Word documentary community can now "sell movies socially" with Distrify. The Distrify player can easily be embedded in film profiles and postings on The D-Word.
I have checked some other peoples sites on Distrify and it seems that everyone is automatically selling there stream version as a download for the same price. How do you change the price of the downloaded version of your film?
Hi Josh,
We recommend selling the download at a different price. I don't think many people are selling downloads yet, and most aren't selling at the same price. If you go the "LATER" section and there is no download available it shows you the streaming option, which is maybe what you're seeing. You can't actually sell the same file for streaming and download... yet.
We'll soon have some more enhanced features for selling downloads, coming in a week or so... Stay tuned...
What about coupons or some kind of gifting of the films. I see a scenario where I would like to sell my film generally, but also be able to make it free to view for certain people who i provide a code to. I think a private vimeo or youtube video could serve this need, but it would be great if a similar feature was available in Dristrify. I realize there is still an inherent cost – your streaming bandwidth – so perhaps the filmmaker can pay?
Oh gotcha, miss understood. The later section is just showing the streaming, I thought it was charging the same price fora download.
If I want a download version, if have to reuplaod my file?
That is a great idea! Filmmakers would be happy to pay that cost, to give out to people that we need to see our projects.
Presently it has to be a separate upload to sell a download, however I'm working on a solution to make this easier. Should be ready in a week or so.
Cameron, We've had a number of requests for this and it will be added to the list. We need to work out acceptable pricing for these "tokens" and a usability approach that makes it work smoothly and avoids potential abuse.. You're right that for now you can use YouTube or Vimeo for this kind of thing, but of course the pseudo-streaming offered by those platforms is not as robust for feature films, so we will come up with a solution in time.
Peter, Ben,I've been considering Distrify for the future, but looks like the time is NOW with this great opportunity offered to us here. So I am very glad to hear about this new partnership and look forward to seeing how it develops. It's also good to have the chance to learn more about your vision for Distrify. I have a couple of questions right off the bat. 1. Can the affiliate share be adjusted, if the filmmaker wants to offer them more and is willing to do so by lowering his/her own percentage of return? 2. If the filmmaker has a digital newsletter or email blast for fans, can the Distrify button be used within it? Thanks.
Hi Beth,
1. Yes, the filmmaker can offer more (or even ALL) of their percentage as affiliate commission. Distrify always pays the first 5% and the rest comes out of the filmmaker share.
2. We have a handy tool that lets you make an image version of your player so you can embed it in an email blast. You have to link it to the real player, since you cannot embed video in emails. Our partner Edinburgh International Film Festival used one in each of their email newsletters to great effect.
Peter, thanks, that flexibility for affiliate commission is super and also good news abut the tricky tool.
What are your ideas about distribution of a film that is actually a web series? I have been wondering about ways to present a web series that is in post-production now. We could share episodes on YouTube and then offer a DVD of the entire series via Distrify. I am thinking this is the best way to start, because we have to market and build viewership.
To distribute episodes individually, via streaming or download, how best to do that? With the Dsitrify model, we would have to present each episode with a button using a trailer. Or would we? Might there be a way to present a series of short films, with a listing that looks something like an album with individual songs for sale? There are some services out there for music, like Top Spin and partners, but a filmmaker has to make the adaptations, as far as I can tell. I would appreciate hearing your perspective.
I'm wondering what the maximum stream capacity is at a given time. I'm working with a producer who may get a huge amount of national and international publicity for his film concentrated in a short period of time. Thanks.
In reply to Beth Humpert's post on Mon 25 Jul 2011 :
You can add a number of short videos to one Distrify player. Just keep adding a "new product" and you can add as many videos as you like. Then you just need the one player/preview. You can either sell the shorts individually or group them together as a "package" like a deluxe edition. You can choose to make products "only in a package" or they can be $0.99 each or $5.99 for 10, just like an album. We haven't made a how-to video for this feature yet, but it's all there and some filmmakers are using it to great success. I'll embed an example below (note: this one does not show the packages to Germany, Japan or UK, due to geo-restrictions).
In reply to Steve Ladd's post on Mon 25 Jul 2011 :
Steve, we can handle pretty much any capacity. If you expect some extra publicity, please let us know and we'll boost up our resources, but they should expand dynamically anyway. Please let us know when you expect the extra hype though, and we can join in.
Peter, thanks for the info. Distrify handles the streaming and download of movie files only, is that correct? Sales and fulfillment of physical product are left up to the filmmaker. How are payments handled for these various sales, since you collect and distribute to filmmakers and affiliates?
Have there been customer service issues develop on streaming product, and if so, to whom does a customer go for a solution? Mini example- when I tried to sign up for email on Adventures of Power from the button you embedded above, I had problems. Could not 'continue.' Will try again later. Thanks.
We handle all payments through the player, and presently for physical merchandise you get an email notification to fulfil the order. This can also be sent to your fulfilment company, or you can get in touch with us and we can look at deeper integration options. As soon as payments clear to our account you can request a withdrawal from the Income Report on Distrify.
For customer service on streaming and downloads, we handle that for you. If there's a problem with a DVD or other merchandise, we will contact you and ask you to get in touch with the customer to solve the problem.
I will look into the Subscribe issue you are reporting..
Peter, I discovered that my registration to Distrify email list went through, even though it did not appear to on screen.
Hi Beth, yes, there was a display bug on that screen. Thanks for reporting it – my engineer fixed it straight away on Wednesday. Cheers
The Scotsman newspaper on Distrify.
I uploaded my film, but now I'm wondering if the 53 minutes version would be better for on-line viewing than the 72 minute one. Any thoughts on that? Given the choice, do on-line viewers prefer shorter ones? My film is purely entertainment, about a group of radical puppeteers in Chapel Hill that perform huge spectacles in a primitive amphitheater, using recycled materials.
The audience would be primarily the puppeteering community, and secondly the eco/alt-theater crowd, a demographic I just made up.
Well, my upload failed (probably my end), so now that I'm starting from scratch I'll await to hear your thoughts on my question before trying again.
Using AT&T extreme DSL from the USA I was averaging 15 to 20 hours to upload HD files – so it's a pain because any one thing can easily stop the upload and you have to start from scratch again. You have to stick with it though and it will work. Safari browser works on smaller files – Firefox was terrible and Chrome works on larger files but Chrome was unstable ... just my experience. I do not and will not ever use Explorer.
The uploads mainly depend on the stability and upload bandwidth of your own internet connection. I've never experienced any difficulty here.
In the meantime, Dogwoof (a large distributor for indie docs in the UK, very active in audience engagement) has made a great part of their library available for streaming or purchase via Distrify players on http://dogwoof.tv – worth having a look.
I should say, we made some improvements to the Distrify uploader a couple weeks ago to help those with connection problems. It can now continue even if there are a few hiccups in the network.
Dogwoof has made a nice library indeed, and I'll again point out Jon's good work, since he now has a page to encourage users to take advantage of the reseller affiliate programme: http://emptymindfilms.com/watch-now/become-a-partner-its-free/
Peter – I'm wondering if you guys ever added a way to offer a free download or stream to distrify. I'm about to (or trying to, encoding is messing with me) join up with distrify, and one extremely useful thing would be to allow people to preview a film – like an academic considering purchase
This is a common request – something we hope to implement before long. Of course the main issue is that free is not actually free, so we have to build in the pricing model for free. Hope that makes sense!
It does.
I also just posted a feedback question on distrify; the only way to do so seems to be via some site called "get satisfaction", unless you have tweeter or facebook, etc.;
My upload appeared cropped, but it seems like there's no way to view one's own upload to see how it looks, is there?
Everything is cool now. Distrify gives prompt feedback. I'm now officially distrified. Send me some money! (I need to replace the trailer; it has a few extra frames at the start...)

anyone other LOs on a food strike? DS has had a couple so I want to blame that for his food strike, but I feel like he's been on a strike before he got sick. I am not sure what to do.
He throws more food on the flood than what goes in his mouth. Honestly can get him to drink milk, and eat the food pouches. Sometimes berries, or cheerios, or crackers, but pretty much everything he throws.
How do you handle these food strikes?

What About Giving?
Martin Luther said, "There are three conversions necessary: the conversion of the heart, the mind and the purse. "Followers of Jesus Christ have a tremendous opportunity to make the glory of God and the gospel obvious as they grow in generosity.
Biblical giving should demonstrate several characteristics. Of first priority, giving is done with regularity, joy, sacrifice, purpose and from a heart of contentment. When we think in those terms, it's not hard to understand why Jesus spoke so often about the tug of war money can be for our heart's devotion.
God sees our faith and our finances as inseparable, according to Randy Alcorn. We have opportunity in our giving to demonstrate our trust in Christ, transfer current resources into eternity and claim a share in the mission God has given His Church.
Giving is a significant, life-giving force in our devotion to Christ. As we give, we declare first to ourselves that honoring God is more valuable than money. That declaration is no small statement in our consumer culture. In fact, Jesus said, "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." (Matt 6:21) We can literally lead our heart with our financial decisions.
Growth in financial discipleship is a significant challenge for every believer. That's one of the reasons Faith has a ministry team devoted to help followers of Christ learn and apply biblical stewardship practices. Eternal Treasures Ministry is here to help you. The team provides workshops, small group study resources and individual counsel.
If you're just getting started in the adventure of biblical stewardship, here are a few key passages of Scripture to consider: Matthew 6:19-24; Luke 12:15-21, 33; 2 Corinthians 8-9; 1 Timothy 6:6-7, 17-19. Also, a very helpful resource is the small book titled The Treasure Principle by Randy Alcorn.
Giving to Faith Community
Giving as Worship
Jesus is building His Church. Everyone who is part of the family of God ought to set a priority with the first part of their giving specifically to the mission of the local church they are part of. At Faith, this is done through the offering boxes provided by each of the
Some prefer to set up their regular giving commitment through an automatic bank withdrawal. Automatic withdrawal can be set up through Nancy Gleason at the Faith offices. She can also help with information if you have questions about donations or other types of gifts.
