85 Undead Priest
As a person I enjoy being useful.
I also enjoy doing something that maybe not everyone else does.
I'd rather be a Tank or a Healer because of this. There slightly less common, and they're mandatory to a group.
As a healer it's easy to see yourself getting better without getting stomped by others.
DPS or total damage is hard to gauge as sometimes other classes are just built better at certain levels (Shadow priests, really dont come into there own until 40+ I hear) so you'll be out performed by other classes simpily because lvl 19 is a good level to be a rouge. Or at least thats how it seems.
Also, theres a few common metrics you can use as a healer to become much better.
Not just keeping everyone above 90-95% at all times (although that's a good thing to meause) but also things like overhealing can be kept down to a minimum, and Mana levels can be kept up at the same time.
This makes the class more appealing to me as a newish player (had a 70 a while back, when WOTLK was out lol)
84 Blood Elf Priest
you know you do good on heal when everyone don't die (not mean they have full hp) and your party beat a last boss of the dungeon.
meanwhile, in DPS, you think you suck when you don't score first place or close to first place's dps :(
but, I am happy to hear you have a fun on your healers. Hope that Cata will make healing more fun for you.

Tiny avocados are dropping
Hello Members,
I have a robust 14 feet high Mexicola Grande tree.It has been producing in the last 4 years. The crop keeps increasing each year goes by. Last crop I had 50 avocados. This tree has been in backyard 8 years and is growing fast.
This year I suspect I am going to have less fruits.The year as far as rain has been a great year.We can prove that with the reservoirs levels in Santa CLara County. Since the fruit starte forming we have not had wind storms that would knock down the tiny fruits. After the flowering was over I noticed large number of tiny fruits forming. For some reason large number of fruits just dropped. I wonder what are the possible causes for this to happen. I appreciate any info on what might be causing this. Thank you for your info. Jaime
Could be several things. Many fruit trees often set more fruit that the tree can possibly support, dropping some eases the stress on the plant.
A sudden spike in heat can trigger fruit drop as can water stress. There are nutritional reasons for fruit drop but your tree sounds healthy. Poor pollination can also result in fruit drop.
Is there still a good amount of fruit on the tree?
Yes.There is still a good amount of fruit there.But I expect the crop to be higher than last year.Facts will prove. The caliper trunk size at base currently is about 4 feet.I doubt it is heat stress or water stress,this year the temps have been quite consistenly low compared to last year.In the spring we had good rain.This has been a great year for rain.Most reservoirs aroun here are full.
So I do not see reason for drought which causes stress.

|This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. (May 2010)
Under the Whyte notation a 2-8-8-4 is a steam locomotive with two leading wheels, two sets of eight driving wheels, and a four-wheel trailing truck.
Other equivalent classifications are:
- UIC classification: 1DD2 (also known as German classification and Italian classification)
- French classification: 140+042
- Turkish classification: 45+46
- Swiss classification: 4/5+4/6
- Russian classification: 1-4-0+0-4-2
The equivalent UIC classification is, refined for Mallet locomotives, (1′D)D2′.
Such a long locomotive must be an articulated locomotive, and all the examples produced were Mallets, with a joint in the frame between the first and second groups of driving wheels. The superstructure of the locomotive was attached to the rearmost set and the forward set and leading truck could swing laterally on curves.
The type was generally named the Yellowstone, a name given it by the first owner, the Northern Pacific Railway, whose lines run near Yellowstone National Park. Seventy-two Yellowstone type locomotives were built for four different US railroads.
The 2-8-8-4 was a common arrangement for the largest steam locomotives. All Yellowstones had fairly small drivers of 63 to 64 inches (1.60 to 1.63 m). For greater speeds, the Union Pacific Railroad chose a four-wheel leading truck and 68 inches (1.73 m) drivers for its Big Boy 4-8-8-4 class.
Several classes of Yellowstone, especially the Duluth, Missabe and Iron Range's locomotives, are among the largest steam locomotives, with the exact ranking depending on the criteria used.
Northern Pacific[edit]
The Northern Pacific Railway was the first railroad to order a 2-8-8-4. The first was built in 1928 by ALCO; it was the largest locomotive built until then, and it had the largest firebox ever applied to a steam locomotive, some 182 square feet (16.9 m2) in area. The purpose was to burn Rosebud coal, a cheap low-quality coal. That firebed was too large for the available draft and the fire burned poorly. The problem was mitigated by blocking off the first few feet of the grates. Baldwin built eleven more for the NP in 1930.
Southern Pacific[edit]
The Southern Pacific Railroad's famous "cab-forward" articulated steam locomotives were effectively a Yellowstone in reverse, but the SP also owned some conventional 2-8-8-4s for use on its less mountainous routes. Lima built twelve AC-9 class locomotives in 1939; they had skyline casings with striped pilots. At first they burned coal but were later converted to oil firing.
Duluth, Missabe and Iron Range[edit]
The Duluth, Missabe and Iron Range Railway hauled iron ore in Minnesota. Iron ore is heavy and the DM&IR operated long trains of ore cars, requiring maximum power. These locomotives were based upon 10 2-8-8-2s that Baldwin had built in the 1930s for the Western Pacific Railroad. The need for a larger, coal burning firebox and a longer, all-weather cab led to the use of a four-wheel trailing truck, giving them the "Yellowstone" wheel arrangement. They were the most powerful Yellowstones built, producing 140,000 lbf (620 kN) of tractive effort, and had the most weight on drivers so that they were not prone to slipping.
Eight locomotives (class M-3) were built by Baldwin in 1941. The Yellowstones met or exceeded the DM&IR specifications so ten more were ordered (class M-4). The second batch was completed late in 1943 after the Missabe's seasonal downturn in ore traffic, so some of the new M-4s were leased to and delivered directly to the Denver & Rio Grande Western.
The next winter the D&RGW again leased the DM&IR's Yellowstones as helpers over Tennessee Pass, Colorado and for other freight duties. The Rio Grande returned the Yellowstones after air-brake failure caused Number 224 to wreck on the Fireclay Loop.[1] This was despite the Rio Grande's earlier assessment that these Yellowstones were the finest engines ever to operate there.
DM&IR's were the only Yellowstones to have a high-capacity pedestal or centipede tender, and had roller bearings on all axles. Some of the locomotives had a cylindrical Elesco feedwater heater ahead of the smoke stack, while others had a Worthington unit with its rectangular box in the same location.
Only one Yellowstone was retired before dieselization took place on the Missabe; Number 237 was sold for scrap after a wreck. The rest of the 2-8-8-4s were retired between 1958 and 1963 as diesel locomotives took over.
Three of the eighteen built still survive and are on display: Number 227 at the Lake Superior Railroad Museum in Duluth, Minnesota, Number 225 in Proctor, Minnesota, and Number 229 in Two Harbors, Minnesota.

When the U.S. entered World War II The American railroads saw increases in traffic. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, along with other railroads, wanted to purchase more of the diesel locomotives since they were showing improved performance over steam locomotives. But the War Production Board regulated the production of steam and diesel locomotives until the war emergency was over. So along with producing 40 new class T-3 4-8-2 type locomotives in-house at their Mt. Clare shops in Baltimore, Maryland, the B&O took delivery of 30 class EM-1 Yellowstones in 1944 and 1945, the largest number and the smallest of this type built by Baldwin as well as the most modern.
The EM-1 produced 115,000 pounds-force (510 kN) of tractive effort on 64-inch (1.6 m) drivers with 235 pounds per square inch (1.62 MPa) steam pressure and four 24-by-32-inch (0.61 by 0.81 m) cylinders. The tender carried 22,000 US gallons (83 m3) of water and 25 tons of coal. The engine weighed 627,000 pounds (284 t) while the tender weighed 328,000 pounds (149 t) for a combined 1,010,700 pounds (458.4 t). Nothing bigger could operate within the tunnel clearances and track restrictions on the B&O's main line.
They were equipped with the newest technology including the Worthington feedwater heater, superheater with front-end throttle, Cyclone front end, thermic syphons, a lateral cushioning device in the front pair of drivers on both engines and the front wheels and the trailing truck, as well as roller bearings on all axles, engine and tender, which gave them the reputation of "yard creepers", because three men could move one on a level track with the cylinder cocks open.
B&O's president, Roy B. White, after inspecting the first one delivered, said to the general superintendent of motive power and equipment, A.K. Galloway, "well, I must say, they have everything!"
Fleet numbers 7600–7619 were built and delivered in 1944 and 7620–7629 in 1945, all by the Baldwin Locomotive Works of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They went to work on the Cumberland Division's rugged West End subdivision with its more than 2% grades and tight curves where with the older 2-8-8-0 EL classes hauled West Virginia coal and freights. Since the EM-1s had roller bearings throughout, they also handled mail and express trains, replacing two B&O class T-3 4-8-2 Mountains. That continued until January 21, 1947 when near Oakland, Maryland, train 29 with engine 7625 derailed with the locomotive rolling onto the engineer's side, killing the engineer. The EM-1s were then restricted to coal and freight trains until the late 1950s, when the B&O used EM-1 No. 7600 for railfan trips.[2]
The EM-1s also ran on the Pittsburgh Division over Sand Patch Grade near Meyersdale, Pennsylvania, with empty hoppers, iron ore or dolomite loads westbound, coal eastbound, as well as general freight in both directions. In the late 1950s, the B&O used EM-1 No. 7600 for railfan trips mostly between Cumberland, MD, and Connellsville, PA. Well-known photographer and Cumberland, MD, native William P. Price captured on still pictures and 8mm films, the EM-1s on the east side of Sand Patch pulling heavy trains with two of the B&O's 2-10-2 class S1 and S1a Big Sixes on the rear as helpers dispatched from Hyndman, PA.
Near the end of steam they were all sent out to Fairmont and Wheeling, West Virginia, and Lorain, Ohio, with lake-bound coal trains as well as runs between Willard, OH and Garrett, Indiana, until the B&O started to retire them in 1957. As good as they were, they could not compete with the diesels. None were saved from the scrapper's torch.[3]
Outside the United States[edit]
The metre gauge Central Railway of Brazil took delivery of four 2-8-8-4s from the German firm of Henschel in 1937. They were the only narrow gauge locomotives of this wheel arrangement, but not the only 2-8-8-4s outside the United States, they had the largest boilers ever used on a narrow-gauge Mallet.
Soviet Russia constructed two 2-8-8-4 locomotives at the Kolomna Locomotive Works. These were the P38 Class numbers P38.001 and P38.002. The first locomotive carried partial casings over the boiler and smokebox typical of the 1950s. P38.002 bore no such adornments and had a more conventional appearance. Both engines had tenders with part bogie and part fixed frame similar to the American 'centipede' tenders.[4]

Disambiguation link notification[edit]
Hi. When you recently edited Squamous-cell carcinoma, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Epidermis (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Curation Toolbar absent[edit]
Hi. Have you any idea how we can get the developers to address this issue? Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 15:52, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
- I don't know any way except giving feedback on Wikipedia talk:Page Curation. In my case, I cured the problem by closing the browser window containing the "new page feed" page and reopening it. It might also be good to try a "complete refresh" of that page and a reviewed page (complete refresh being shift-F5 on some browsers I think, and two successive CNTRL-refreshes on Chrome). I haven't been able to recreate the problem today. --R. S. Shaw (talk) 19:04, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
- I've tried everything, including asking Keyes to look into to it. For some reason he declines to respond. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 07:19, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
- Actually, you'll note I've now responded asking for a screenshot or any additional information you might have :). In the absence of that, R. S. Shaw, would you be able to provide one? okeyeswikimedia.org. Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 06:33, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
- I've tried everything, including asking Keyes to look into to it. For some reason he declines to respond. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 07:19, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
- R.S., is this now solved? Re your message above that there's been no recreation :). Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 11:09, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
- For me the toolbar has been working since before my previous post. I have not seen any further problems, although I have not used the feature heavily. All I can say is I'm not seeing the problem now, and I don't know a way of recreating it. --R. S. Shaw (talk) 05:58, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
- Great; thanks :). Kaldari is also reporting he can't recreate - Kudpung, is this still happening? Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 11:36, 17 September 2012 (UTC)

Hey R. S. Shaw. I'm dropping you a note because you've been using the Page Curation suite recently - this is just to let you know that we've deployed the final version :). There's some help documentation Wikipedia:Page Curation/Introductionhere that shows off all the features, just in case there are things you're not familiar with. If you find any bugs or have requests for new features, let us know here. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 11:59, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
food energy[edit]
the phrase I quoted was just an example of the articles problems, the overall tone of the entire page, please either restore the tags or fix the page.126.96.36.199 (talk) 12:11, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
- The quoted phrase indeed had inappropriate tone (and content), and needed to be removed; it was probably added by a young, naive contributor. The sentence containing it had just been added in the edit before your edit which tagged the article, and probably would have been fairly soon removed by someone. Beyond that sentence, the applicability of the tags probably isn't immediately apparent to many people, and so to be effective more details of the deficiencies need to be added to the talk page. Better yet would be to actually make the relevant improvements to the article itself. However, simply burdening the article with boxes at the top demanding that someone else make vague changes to the text of it does not seem helpful to me, and I'm going to decline to deface the article with such boxes. --R. S. Shaw (talk) 21:01, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

- OK, I see you got it all fixed. I don't understand what you did, but the result looks good. Ignore these comments. Peter Flass (talk) 01:07, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry for the mistaken revert. I somehow misinterpreted the changes wherein one piece of vandalism you had missed I thought you had made. When I saw my mistake, I reverted my revert, and then figured out the right thing needed and did that (what I should have first done). --R. S. Shaw (talk) 01:18, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Box art posts are the worst: here's one for Watch_Dogs
Ubisoft's upcoming Watch_Dogs is a big deal, right? So you want to see the box art, right? Yeah, I don't care either. I just care that this is a game that's coming this holiday season, and I'd rather play it on one of systems that do not have box art represented in our gallery. You know, like Sony's new thing.
While the game looks great, this box art doesn't do much for me.

I had the idea for my presentation for the Underground Railroad conference months earlier. But on long-term projects, I procrastinate. (Or, conversely, I do it right away, because I know I tend to procrastinate.)
So it's the Monday before the Saturday of the conference. I've taken the day off from work. The plan: in the morning, finally watch Hurt Locker on DVD. In the afternoon, go to the library and work on the presentation. Neither of these things happen, though; the daughter is home sick for the 10th time this school year. and as usual, she's not SO sick that she's sleeping, but rather needs regular attention from daddy.
So it's now the Thursday evening before the Saturday of the conference. I blow off Bible study and choir, stay at work until 8 pm and actually get the presentation into some sort of narrative shape. It's not finished, but it's quite far along.
So it's now the day before the conference. I dig out the thumb drive I was given which I had never used, and copy the program. My intention is to finish it up at home on the wife's laptop. Except the wife's computer doesn't seem to have a cursor anymore.
So now it's the morning of the conference. I still cannot get the laptop to work. As for my desktop computer, not only is it slow, it is so old that it actually doesn't have a compatible slot for the thumb drive. I'm thinking I may have to go to the downtown branch of the library; the local branch doesn't open until 1 pm, and that's too late.
Then I play with the daughter's new Netbook that her aunt and uncle just gave her for Valentine's Day. I can't get the Internet to work on it, but the word processing is fine, and the presentation is finished Just In Time.
Eventually - I have no idea how - I've gotten the cursor to work again on the wife's laptop. I mean I'm a Luddite, but not as bad as this guy, at least most of the time.
So here's the question: do you consider yourself technologically savvy, or do you go around screaming when technology fails? I'm not a screamer, but...well, let's put it this way: DON'T hire me for IT.

1999 Dodge Stratus 4 Dr STD Sedan Review
Runs like a dream, handles great
Just seems a little bit lower quality than something older
Fun, Attractive Car... — Very nice car to drive, feels like driving a cloud. Very smooth acceleration. Takes corners at high speeds with NO loss of grip. Handles like a smaller car than it is. Runs amazing, sounds mean and accelerates great for being just a 4cyl. Build could be a little sturdier, I think my car (an older Taurus) is actually built more solid, of course most older cars are. Nice looking car, easy on the eyes and definitely has a "cool factor" to it. Cost of ownership to my knowledge is fairly low...gets good gas mileage and the only problem I've seen it have since she got it cost me a buck to fix (roll of electrical tape). Overall a fun car that has plenty of years left in it.

Powerful engine
Unrelieable engine.
Don't Bother Buying One — I only keep the car because I can fix it myself. I keep it running with minimum maintenance, having security in mind. It almost looks like this car was designed so you need to the dealership now and then for maintenance that does not occur with other cars/manufacturers. If you can fix cars, want a powerful engine, don't mind fuel mileage and want a cheap car, this one is for you. Otherwise, don't buy this.
Primary Use: Family transportation

its indestructible
it always has something wrong with it
Poop — It breaks weekly, I'm always putting money into it, the gas does not seem to last very long, it used to be a roadtripping machine, now it is deemed undrivable for one week due to the fact the back windshield broke and i have no side mirror cuz they are not very sturdy.
Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

MPG, turning circle
acceleration, transmission, ride, comfort, styling, interior quality, lack of features, ease of acess, engine
My Dodge Stratus.... — Like the gas mileage.. 28-30 (25 with a lead foot) but needs bigger engine and i'm desperate for horsepower/torque 4 cylinder just isn't cutting it for me.. It's okay to drive around, but i am wanting something way more sporty. Despite high gas prices, I'd kill for an SUV right now

Power window, power locks and decent engine
The weather stripping on the windshield is coming off.
Dodge's Are Decent. — The perofrmance is good, brakes need replaced every once in a while. The build quality is excellent, deals with door slamming all the time. The appearance is extremely aeordynamic without looking like a car tree huggers would drive. The cost is reasonable.
Primary Use: Commuting to work

Peppy engine with 5-spped offering great fuel economy for size of car
Original brakes could have been better, yet diddn't wear prematurely
Outstanding Value For A Dependable, Reliable, Economical Sedan Offering Great Interior Space — Base model w/2.0L 5-speed. Extremely dependable and reliable. Great fuel economy of 35.5 comined city/hwy, mostly hwy. Great useable interior and trunk space. Above average factory stereo. Sharp, sporty-looking sedan. Great factory original Michelin tires contribute to a great smooth ride and lasted 85,000 miles. Car still going strong at 160K miles.

Great gas mileage, very reliable, fairly easy to work on
It is a Dodge so it does have a transmission made by Chrysler which you can never trust. Battery is located in the wheel well which means you have to take the tire off to remove the battery.
Great Car — I currently own a white '99 Dodge Stratus with the 2.4L DOHC 4 cylinder engine. This is the second '99 stratus I've owner (I still have the original for a parts car). The 2.4 engine is the only Mopar motor I'd ever recommend to someone looking to buy a Dodge or Chrysler. This motor produces about 150hp, which really gets up and goes since its such a light car, and gets excellent gas mileage. The previous Stratus I drove has about 170k and still runs like it just drove off the lot but has a rear main seal leak which is something that just eventually goes out in any car. The only thing I've even had to replace in that car was the started and I got a used one from the junk yard for $13 and it still works to this day. If you are looking for reliability and a cheap economical car I'd highly recommend getting a Stratus...just make sure you get one with the 2.4L because the 2.0L 4 cylinder and 2.5L v6 are both junk!!!

Loss and Grief: Social Media's Impact on the Way We Grieve
A conference designed for social workers, professional counselors, marriage and family therapists, nurses, clergy, funeral directors, pastoral ministers, chaplains, educators and health and human services professionals.
Workshop Description:
What is death and grief like for those who are plugged-in, wireless, WiFi cyber networked? What are the unique issues and age-related concerns as we chart new ways of mourning in an online environment? The Internet has profoundly changed the way in which individuals respond to death-related encounters in terms of the accessibility of information and opportunities to connect with others with similar concerns. These encounters are moderated by developmental differences in the comprehension of death, types of death-related encounters, cultural contexts and coping mechanisms.
This workshop will explore how the virtual world influences and is influenced by children, adolescents, young adults and adults as they work to construct understandings and cope with feelings about death in our contemporary networked environments. You will gain new insights for helping grieving families and individuals through practical information and engaging activities.
Learning Objectives:
• Articulate development differences in death concepts between children, adolescents, young adults and adults.
• Discuss how the virtual world influences and is influenced by individuals across different points in the lifespan as they try to understand death and seek support and solace when they are grieving.
• Review some of the research literature on how the Internet is currently being used to mediate our experiences with death.
• Draw out the implications for practitioners who work with the bereaved.

Gothel in Gotham
The woman creeps along the alley
between the dumpsters
her pepper wool hair matted
her spine the keel of a ship
been twenty leagues under
She goes her way singing
a lullaby in witch language

Mist is on the far shore
with its distant mounds
blooms of breathing white
Multicolor rocks worn
by salt years
rest easy in the palms
The largest driftwood
has every-which-way locks
and a twisted-monkey face
The tide sigh-wooshes in

Zula May
The blood oranges sat in the cut glass bowl, untouched for a week. Slowly they curled into themselves, the skins shriveling up. They mummified in the Colorado summer as dust blew in through the open door with its peeling paint.
Light entered in, the only fresh element in/… Read full post »
