Since there are so many topics from people asking for help i thought its time for a guide like this. I know with the upcoming patch 1.04 many things in regards of legendaries will change and they get buffed alot but the majority of players simply cant afford to buy them on the ah. Many people kinda run on small budgets like 1 or maybe 5mil. This guide is mainly for those people who post on our monk forum and asking for help in regards of how to gear up or what they should upgrade next. Most of the times its not easy to help these people since they made quite some mistakes in terms of their gear.
Each and anything within this guide is based on my own experience. Sure i make mistakes and sure there are some within this guide. I encourage you all to contribute and point out errors i made.
Side note: Since im not native english i beg your parden in regards of my english.
So lets get things started!
1.) Itemslots
First we need to understand that each piece of armor has a different proposal. There are like 5 categories in regards of the different itemslots.
a.) Stat Slots
- Chest
- Pants
- Shoulders
- Belt
U should always aim for dex, vit and resistens on em. The values depending greatly on your budget. U should try to get pickup radius on one of these items. Items tend to have 4 and up to 7 properties. So its the easiest and cheapest way to get pickup radius on top of dex/vit/res. Since u will looking for items with 4 or 5 properties.
b.) Hybrid Slot
- Boots
Most people tend to want movementspeed on their boots. It helps alot if u need to constantly move out of groundeffects and will speed up your farming speed. Thats why i always recommand getting at least 10% movementspeed. U should looking for boots with dex, vit, res. and movementspeed. In case you are lookign for double resistens (@res+2nd res) you are already looking for 5 properties. If you try to get pickup radius too u will end up looking for 6 properties which makes them realy expensive.
c.) DPS Hybrid Slots
- Bracers
- Helm
Bracers and helms are able to carry crit chance as a dps stat other then dex. In terms of bracers u want dex, vit, res and crit chance on em. Double res on bracers would be nice since you are only asking for for 5 properties on em. A helm is kinda a categorie of its own. Buying a helm with only decent stats and a some crit hit chance(+3.5%) will cost like a whole starter gearset. So most of the times u have to compromise in terms of stats and statvalues.
In terms of your helm you should try to get either a helm with dex/resistens and vit or open socket for %life gem OR a helm which offers more dps/damage with dex/resistens/vit or open socket and crit hit chance(+3% at least). Things like a socket makes a helm realy expensive. Its like with open sockets on weapons. Its realy nice to have em later on but u realy dont need em as a starter.
With the new paragon system u want a socket on your helm. A red gem gives a realy nice boost to the xp your are gaining! Sure it will takes weeks or more likely months to level up all the way from 0 to level100 but a ruby gem will help alot.
d.) DPS Slots
- Amulet
- Rings
- Gloves
Those three items are ment to carry most of your dps. They are able to have crit chance, crit damage and attackspeed on em. Amulets can have a nice amount of life on hit as well. DO NOT TRY TO GET RESISTENS ON RINGS AND/OR AMULET. Those r retarded expensive and it would be realy hard to replace em later on if u want to gear up your starterset!
U have a ring with just dex, vit and resistens(which is kinda mandetory for your current stats). You cant replace this ring without upgrading other pieces of your gear too. SO there is this super cheap ring on the ah and you bought it but cant wear it atm. U need to find other upgrades to make up for loosing the resistens of your current ring. which is realy bad and makes u sad. :-)
So get as much dex, crit hit chance and either attackspped or crit hit damage as possible on these items. Starters should try to get as much dex and crit hit chance from rings and gloves as they can afford and getting dex and crit hit damage from the neck.
e.) Mainhand and Offhand
Main and offhand are realy realy important. Along with your jewels and gloves they carrying your dmg! Dont focus on getting vit on your weapons. This way its way harder to replace em later on. Same like in terms of resistens on rings or amu. You should always be good on hp without havin vit on your weapons!
You want at least 2 stats on your weapons!
- Dex
- Crit Damage and/or open socket to gem for crit damage
I wouldnt recommand to get life on hit on weapons. Since loh makes em far more expensive and u have to compromise in terms of weapon dps most likely. If u realy need some "extra healing" then look for weapons with life leech. Those are kinda cheap compared to life on hit. But keep in mind that life leech gets an 80% penelty in inferno. So a weapon with 3% life leech yields 0,6% healing of the damage you deal. I would recommand buying a main and offhand with nearly same dps. For starters its not that easy to track the current active weapon and potential you will loose a lot of damage in some fights.
2.) "Statweights"
Primary Stats:
- Dextery offers three things for monks: DPS(!), Armor and Dodge. Thats why dextery is so important for monks and we focus on stacking as much dexerty as we can afford.
- Without HP we are dead on the floor. Simple as that. We dont need to stack it as high as possible but we should aim for certain amounts. Depending on our budget and the act we are progressing/farming. It de-values as soon as we get better and better dps and/or higher armor/resistens.
- Like vitality it ramps up your hp. Its greatly related to your amount of vitality. With a low amount of vitality its pretty worthless. So its nice to have(like from socket into a helm) but not essential.
- For 1 point strength we get 1 point armor. So its another way to raise our amount of armor. Beside that its pretty worthless for monks.
- For 10 points of int we get 1 point all resistens. Its like strength. Nice to have but not a must have at all.
Resistens(RES) and Armor
- Both stats are realy important. There is a rule of thump: Always aim for resistens equals 1/10 of your current armor value. F.e. if u have 7k armor then aim for like 700 resistens. Both armor and resistens lower the incoming damage by a % value. There are different values dpending on the inferno act u want to farm/progressing. Monks havin a passive(owe with everything) which adds up our highest stacked 2nd resistens to our all resistens. This way we are able to get a decent amount of resistens kinda cheap without the need of getting items with all resistens on em.
DPS Stats - Weapon Damage Modifiers
Crit Chance(CC)
- Essential for monks. With our current standard build beside dexerty our 2nd best dps stat. Realy strong in combination with sweeping winds/cyclone rune. Since cyclone only spawn from critical hits we should have at least 20% crit hit chance to make the skill and rune working.
Crit Damage(CCD)
Works like hand in hand with crit chance. Havin a high amount of crit damage but lacking crit chance is pointless. U need crit chance to get crit damage working and vice versa. After dex and crit hit chance our 3rd best dps stat. Argueble the 2nd best. But only when u already reached a realy high amount of crit hit chance.
- Not as good as crit chance or crit damage but still a good stat. With slow weapons or if you run with life on hit/life leech it gets more value. In case of slow weapons it helps you in regards of your spirit regen. In terms of life on hit/life leech it will help you to boost the incoming heal. Others then that it helps increasing our dps.
+minimum / + maximum damage
- These stats r kinda tricky and many people just dont know how good these stats are. They can appear on rings and amulets. Just add the value to your current min and max weapon dmg. Its a stat that could make a ring or amulet more "attractive".
F.e. u have a ring with 10 min and 20 max dmg. Your weapon has 500 min and 1000 max dmg. With your ring equiped your weapon now has 510 min and 1020 max. dmg.
Bonus damage vs. elites
- Currently its not a bad stat. It helps to kill things faster. With patch 1.04 elites/champs will getting reduced their health by 15% and so the stat will be de-valued quite a bit but still not bad at all.
Other important stats
Life on hit(LOH)
- Its kinda expensive but has a huge advantage. Regardless your damage you will always get the same amount of healing. From different abilities we get a different amount of healing.
Have a look at the spreadsheet for numbers.
Life leech(LL)
- Life leech is ment for people running high dps gearsets. One big advantage is that life leech gets triggered by sweeping winds/cyclones!
Life regen per second(LR)
- Appears on various armor items. Its a passive way to regen health without havin to hit mobs.
Life after kill(LAK)
- Some people like it. Im not a big fan of it. Its only helpful if u drag elite/championpacks into big trash groups. If u kill big trash groups u wont need it either cuz there will be more then enough health globes spawning to keep you on a solid amount of hp.
Extra healing from health globes
- Kinda underrated stat atm. If u get items with total like +4k on health globes it makes things easier if u dont have any other source of healing. This way even the small globes heal you for a big chunk of your hp.
Spirit regen(SR)
- I dont see any value at all except one scenario atm. If u died on a pack and have to run a long way back after rez its nice to have. I bought some cheap(like 2k gold each) fistweapons with +2 spirit regen on em. I equip them just on the way back and regen to full and swap back to the real weapons.
Bonus Armor(BA)
- Again an underrated stat. In terms of mitigation 10 points of armor are equal to 1 resistens(to a certain point). Sometimes u find good single resistens items with bonus armor kinda cheap on the ah. They are worth to consider.
Magic Find(MF)
- With the upcoming patch u want some mf on your farming gear. White mobs will drop 4 times the amount of magical items.
The downside of mf gear is that it already went up in price. If you run on low budget you have to compensate either dps or some other stats like resistens. So getting mf on gear could end up for you in farming a lower act then you are used to be.
- Im not a fan of goldfind tbh. Its ok if i have an item with it but im not actively looking for this stat. Im not a goldfarmer. While farming i want to find items. Either upgrades for myself or worth selling them on the auctionhouse.
Pickup radius(PR)
- Im a huge fan of pickup radius. I died so many times while running with 0 pickup radius compared to havin at least like 5yds. Maybe i failed and died but for me its a big difference to have some pickup radius for getting the health globes while fighting an elite/champpack.
- Some people are good without and some say its a must have. I would say get at least 10%. The difference between 10% and 12% as a melee isnt that great.
€dit: Bonus exp from killing monsters
- With the new patch 1.04 all level 60 characters are able to level up paragon xp. See patch notes for more details. Since the stat only appears on items until itemlevel55 i wouldnt recommand to gear up for bonus exp in any way! You will loose way too much useful stats for just a tiny amount of bonus exp. Maybe blizzard will introduce new highlevel items with bonus exp but this wont happen with patch 1.04!
Source: http://www.diablofan...ndrew-chambers/
Q: With that, will we be seeing +exp affixes show up on ilvl 63 items?
A: We spoke about it internally, we think it's something that takes up a really valuable slot for a lot of players, if you want to replace an existing stat with +experience. So we are not going to be adding that to this patch."
All the other stats not mentioned above arent necessary in any way. So im not going to talk about those at all.
3.) What statvalues and skills/runes/passives do i need for the different inferno acts?
Act1 inferno
In order to be successful farming act1 inferno you will need at least:
+25k HP
+4k Armor
+300 Resistens
0 of any source of life regen aka loh/ll or lr
+20% crit hit chance
A bare minimum of 15k DPS - getting +20k isnt hard nor expensive at all
Build: http://eu.battle.net...XYgh!XUa!acbcYa
Follower: Enchantress cuz she offers way more utility and buffs compared to the templar and scoundrel
Build: http://eu.battle.net...follower#!!0110
Q: But i heard crit hit chance is so important! Why not using the scoundrel?
A: The Enchantress gives 15% bonus armor, 3% attack speed(as long as she isnt dead on the floor) and a 15% dmg buff for 3sec every 15sec. Its your choice.
Act2 inferno
+30k HP
+5k Armor
+500 Resistens
Some sort of life regen could be helpful but isnt mendatory if u play smart.
+20% crit hit chance and 200% crit hit damage
A bare minimum of 25k DPS
Build: Same as for act1. If u outgear act2 by far then get "MoC/Overawe" instead of "MoE/Hardtarget" and maybe switch guardians path for resolve.
Act3 inferno
Act3 is currently the endcontent of diablo3 in terms of farming. Act3 requires decent/good gear to farm it successfully.
If u just want to progress thru act3/4 inferno and dont bother with skipping packs on your way and dying from time to time then you are good to go with
+35k HP
+6k Armor
+600 Resistens
Some sort of life regen could be helpful but isnt mendatory if u play smart.
A bare minimum of 30k DPS
For progressing i would recommand the act1 starterbuild. The incoming damage in act3 is huge compared to act1 and even act2.
For farming act3 on a daily base you should aim for
Approx 40k HP
7k Armor
700 Resistens
A bare minimum of 40k dps. I would recommand either +50k dps and/or some sort of life regen. Havin more dps helps alot with your farming speed and dying less.
In terms of farming i would definitely using a build with MoC/Overawe. It speeds up your farming alot. If you feel kinda squishy may switch either resolve for guardians path(more avoid) or transcendence(more healing). If you are good on dps then guardians path should be the better option. Health globes will drop faster and you wont need the extra healing from transcendence..
Act4 inferno
The mobs are a bit harder compared to act3 but if u beat act3 with your gear you will be able to clear act4 as well. ATM act4 is not worth farming at all. There r way less elite/champpacks in act4 compared to act3. Its impossible to kill the first 2 bosses in act4 with 5 stacks of valor. Sure u can 5 stack nv kill diablo but its not worth the time and effort since act3 has the same dropchances in terms of loot and way more packs to kill.
There is a golden rule of thump:
Never ever try to farm content which u dont outgear! If u dont outgear any given act of inferno farm a lower act! Farming is about to be as fast in killing things as possible! So if u clear act1 inferno in lets say 90min and need half a day for act2 inferno stick with farming act1. Even if act1 havin a lower chance to get lv61/62/63s its more efficient for you.
4.) How im supposed to gear up as a fresh lv60 with a small budget?
Your character and the items are kinda like a construction kit. If u follow some simple rules in terms of how to gear up then its kinda easy to have a " decent starter gearset" which could be developed in the future without any troubles b/c lack of gold...
I was kinda curious if its still possible to gear up with max. 1mil as a fresh monk. I was realy surprised by the outcome! I was able to build a set way cheaper then 1mil gold!
This is the gearset: http://d3up.com/b/4122
24k DPS - 25k HP - 320 resistens and 4,3k armor (without enchantress buff)
A list of what i have payed for each item:
Weapon1: 80k
Weapon2: 75k
Chest incl. gems: 70k
Pants incl. gems: 33k
Bracers: 40k
Belt: 49k
Shoulders: 150k
Boots: 15k
Gloves: only 5k(!)
Helm: 100k
Amulet: 75k
Ring1: 100k
Ring2: 65k
Total amount of gold spend: 857.000 Gold
Lets get one thing straight. No 2nd resistens is more expensive then others in terms of top notch items. If you are looking for realy good stuff it doesnt matter if you stack physical, arcane or what ever resistens! Double resistens with high amount of dex and vit is expensive no matter what kind of secondary resistens you are stacking. Im realy sure i could build a similar set like this with every other secondary resistens! Everybody can build a set like this. All you need is some time and patience for searching the ah and follow some simple basic rules!
- Havin resistens on rings and amulets is not necessary. You should get your resistens and vitality from other parts of your armor.
- Try to have sockets on your chest and pants. Sometimes the next good upgrade is getting better gems.
- Dont buy weapons with open socket for "your starter set"! Weapons with naturel crit hit damage are way cheaper compared to those with a socket. Not to mention the cost of good emeral gems. A 70% crit hit damage emeral already cost approx 600k. The 80% crit hit damage is 2mil and the 90% crit hit damage will be like 6mil.
- Dont bother with items havin double res or all resist on em. They are too expensive compared to secondary resist items. Buy those items later on if u want to upgrade some items of your set and already farmed some gold.
- Consider even blue items for your starter set. Weapons, Rings and in some cases amulets are decent even if they are only "blues".
- While shopping on the ah for new items/upgrades NEVER set any amount as max. buyout price. You will miss any items just running on bids. Like 50% of my own gear i got kinda cheap from bids!
- Never buy an item without being sure its worth the amount of gold/money! Think twice if the upgrade in terms of stats is realy worth the amount you have to spend on the new item and if its possible to get a better upgrade for a different slot of your gear.
- Use a simple spreadsheet to keep track of your stats while building a new gearset. It helps alot and u dont need to log on the character and equip the items just to check your new statvalues.
- Its realy important that u know what kind of statvalue can appear on which itemslot. The following link provides a realy good overview. http://www.d3rmt.com...maximum-values/
Some tips in regards of bidding
- If u hit the bid button and see that the amount of gold differs from the starting bid u know someone already placed a bid on it.
- You can raise the amount of gold to any value you are willing to pay for this item.
- If u want to keep track of an item just bid the asked amount. Even if u get outbid right away the item is listed within the actionhouse tab under "auctions/bids". And its easy to keep track of the price. But the actual bid wont update on real time base. Im not sure how often this is updated by blizzard. Even log off and loggin again sometimes wont change anything. As soon as u place a new bid the current max bid will be updated for you. Maybe this will be fixed with upcoming patch 1.04.
- Try to place your "final bid" on the last minute of the action. This way u can proberly safe some gold. If the auction runs out while your are not playing set your final bid when you are about to log off. Keep in mind u can bid any amount you are willing to pay for this item even its way higher then the current max bid!
Useful links:
A nice online tool to compare items. Not flawless but realy good and easy to use. You can import your characters directly from the battlenet.
Lots of good stuff about d3 combat mechanics.
If u want to know what you have to spend for crafting any kind of gem.
Simple damage calculator.
I strongly recommand to have a look at the great monk guide. Tons of useful informations!

Ben Mason provided comprehensive support and was the consummate professional during a difficult and complex process. His guidance and assistance was greatly appreciated.
Schofield & Associates provided us with integral support during the launch of our business. They were extremely proactive and were able to guide us through complex legal issues with ease. Their service was second to none and provided excellent value for money – we have already recommended them to a range of our clients and business associates, and will continue to do so.
Schofield & Associates has provided us with clear and professional advice and respected their proposed time schedule. I will work with them again without hesitation.
Ben is very professional, always prompt, with agreed actions and easy to deal with.
Recently, faced with redundancy for the first time in my career, I engaged the services of Ben Mason, who was recommended to me, to assist in negotiating my exit, and am very pleased to have done so.
Ben's calm and supportive manner helped me a great deal and his patience in explaining the legalities meant I could be confident both in my decision making and in communicating with my employer more clearly.
I would strongly recommend the use of Ben's services to anyone who finds themselves seeking employment legal advice, they will be guaranteed a very professional service as well as a friendly, reassuring and personal one.
Excellent service from Ben.
Very diligent, clear communication and fast turnaround. Thanks
Ben was able to assist me in a very satisfactory settlement within a 48 hour turn-around. Due to the timescales Ben was willing to provide advice outside of normal working hours, and took me through the process step by step. He was professional and very knowledgeable and assisted me in avoiding some pitfalls that could have been costly. I have no hesitation in recommending Ben.
Eileen Schofield has acted for me during the past 12 months culminating in a successful Employment Tribunal. Eileen advised me of my position with my employer while I was suspended from work and during my disciplinary hearing. Following my dismissal and during the Employment Tribunal process Eileen advised me of the options available to me and the best course of action to take. My case was high profile and attracted both public and press interest and at times was difficult due to the actions of my employer. Eileen not only corresponded with my employer on my behalf but also supported and assisted with managing the press interest. Her guidance and choice of counsel for the Employment Tribunal was invaluable and again her support got me through what was a daunting experience.
Along with her colleagues Eileen made what was at times an extremely stressful and worrying period manageable through her support and practical advice. Her realistic approach was vital when making decisions and allowed me to see the whole picture concerning my situation. Eileen also assisted with job applications I was compiling following my dismissal and helped me deal with my situation with potential new employers.
My success at the Employment Tribunal was down to Eileen's diligent work over the previous 12 months and I am very grateful for this.
I would highly recommend Schofield & Associates to anyone who finds themselves in the unfortunate position I did in April 2014. Ben Mason dealt with my case, he was extremely professional, personable and understanding, he went to great lengths to go through all the details of my case with me explaining everything step by step. I was greatly encouraged by his professionalism and personable nature, he gave me completely unbiased, sound advice and put me completely at ease. I felt a whole lot better about my predicament by the time I left his office and was able to make a sound decision regarding my next step.
Fortunately, things were settled swiftly, Ben made sure I got the absolute best possible outcome, keeping me up to date as and when things happened. Losing your job is grim but Schofield's helped ease the situation. I cannot thank Schofield and Associates enough for how they treated me and dealt with my case. Thankfully, I moved on very quickly to another job and was able to put it all behind me.
Thank you again.
I would highly recommend Ben Mason to anyone in a similar position. I was recommended to him by my sister, who couldn't sing his praises enough. I put myself in a very difficult position at work, and although I was in fact technically at fault for my dismissal, Ben secured me an outstanding tax-free compensation package, along with references, expenses etc.
There is a big difference between believing you have a case, and proving it, and Ben was outstanding in explaining all that was involved, and then dealing with the case. He made it clear, not only what could be achieved, but also when I was being unrealistic, in a polite, swift and professional manner.
I wish him all the best, and know who I'll be calling if it happens again.

I've had this range over two years. No problems. I never knew what cooking was like until I used this great range. It holds any temp dead on. I checked it with an oven thermometer. I love to low, slow cook ribs at 225 degrees. My ribs fall off the bone. The temp probe is also a winner to know when my meat reaches the correct internal temp. Boy do I have fun making Greek pastries. I kick myself for not dumping my previous builders grade range earlier for this beauty. You'll praise yourself for making this as your choice in a range. I can't believe I tell friends and family about my range, but I do.

I've had this range for about 6 weeks now after upgrading from an electric range. My favorite part is the convection feature... it definitely speeds up the baking process. All around great product.

Stove is nice but was did ...
By Gregg

Stove is nice but was did not have the attached pull out rack as the other model does. Also this stove did not come with the griddle or the larger oval burner in the center which I thought it did. So, I'd suggest looking closer. Stove is nice, but does not have the features I really wanted.
Excellent Range
By SteveDoRight
from Commerce City, CO, United States
We purchased this a few months ago. This range has turned out to be quite excellent. The five burners are well positioned with plenty of BTU capability. So far, the range top has been pretty easy to clean. The oven has been great, both as a traditional oven as well as its convection performance. It looks very good as well. We are very happy with our choice on this one.

I love my new range. It is the perfect size and looks stunning in my kitchen!

Sixth-seeded Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France stopped playing while trailing Ernests Gulbis of Latvia two sets to one after having his left leg treated by a trainer, one of a series of player injuries at Wimbledon on Wednesday. The 39th-ranked Gulbis was leading the second-round match 3-6, 6-3, 6-3 when Tsonga quit. Tsonga was the runner-up at the 2008 Australian Open and a semifinalist at the All England Club each of the past two years. Following the second set, Tsonga sat on the grass while a trainer wrapped tape below his left knee.

Ben Vereen to perform at Lyric Theatre on Saturday
What: "Steppin' Out Live with Ben Vereen"
When: 3 and 7 p.m. April 2
Where: The Lyric Theatre, 59 S.W. Flagler Ave., Stuart
Tickets: $50
Contact: 772-286-7827; www.lyrictheatre.com
Ben Vereen is a big talent eager to bring a lifetime of Broadway and television stardom to Stuart.
"I am so ready!" he said. "I really enjoy the smaller venues. It's like being in their living rooms — it's like we're sharing. I may pick up on something they like, and go off in a different direction."
Vereen will perform his one-man show, "Steppin' Out Live with Ben Vereen," twice April 2 at The Lyric Theatre in Stuart.
The show includes song and dance tributes to Broadway, Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr., his mentor early in his career. Vereen will sing, dance and share stories of his very full life in entertainment from the late 1960s until today.
Since his Broadway debut at age 22 in "Hair" in 1968, Vereen has been making happy mischief on stage. He won a Tony for his title role in "Pippin" and starred in such shows as "Chicago," "Jelly's Last Jam," "I'm Not Rappaport" and, most recently, the more serious "Fetch Clay, Make Man."
Vereen's television credits are those of a prolific actor, constant small roles covering most of the past 40 years. The highlight was Chicken George in "Roots," a miniseries that showed the impact slavery still has on African-Americans' lives.
But he also was the leopard Mayor Ben of "Zoobilee Zoo," a children's show, and today plays Sam Gibb, a recurring character on the CBS sitcom "How I Met Your Mother."
His other role these days is spokesman for more open diabetes care.
"I myself have diabetes, and I take insulin for it," Vereen said. "There's a lot of fear factor. People have to talk about it, change their diets, and support each other with the things they need to do to take care of themselves."

You can get to Tisno by air, land and sea and some of the best and most common options are below. In an effort to try and run this festival whilst causing as little damage to our lovely planet as possible, we encourage you to consider all possible options for travel before making your choice.
By Air
If you are travelling by air then please try and pay the small carbon offset fee that is provided as an option with most European flights nowadays. The nearest airports to the village of Tisno are Zadar (45 mins), Split (90 mins) or Zagreb (4 hrs). Flight prices do vary massively. Don't be put off if the first ones you see are expensive, as there are plenty of cheap ways to travel out there – by flying to an airport slightly further afield you can get flights for under £70. For those with more time for an adventure, other airport options in Croatia are Dubrovnik, Rijeka or Pula. Flights to these airports tend to still be cheap when the prices to the others have increased. Also not too far away from Croatia are Ljubljana in Slovenia with Easyjet and Trieste or Venice in Italy with Ryanair. You can generally get good connections to Croatia by bus from these cities. Skyscanner compares millions of flights to find you the cheapest deal, and fast. You can book direct, with no fees at Skyscanner.
By Bus
Use the local buses and enjoy the beautiful Croatian landscape! You should check out www.autobusni-kolodvor.com or www.buscroatia.com for details and timetables. Be aware that multiple different operators often run on the same routes, so be sure to check prices of the various options at the bus station in Croatia. As one might expect, the faster the journey, the more expensive it generally is.
The Sunshine Bus run by Planet Festival
The most eco-friendly way to travel to Soundwave is probably by the Sunshine Bus, a number of coaches we provide from the UK to the festival site. Take the bus! It will give you the chance to experience a drive through Europe and to get to know a bus full of like-minded people also on their way to a party. We guarantee that you'll feel like a family by the time you get there! Planet Festival exists to make travelling to the World's best festivals simpler. In 2014, Planet Festival will operate the Sunshine Bus service from the UK to Soundwave Festival. The popular Sunshine Bus service is being expanded in 2014 with pick ups in Birmingham, Dover, London (Victoria Coach Station) and Manchester. A return fare is only £199 and this includes all return coach and ferry travel direct to the Soundwave festival site. Sit back and relax as Planet Festival whisk you through Europe to one of the most hotly anticipated festivals of the summer. To view all service information and to book your seat please visit:

Uni Rent: www.uni-rent.net
Ride Shares
If you're eager to meet some party people, and have some free seats left in your car, why not give a ride to a festival goer like you? Or if you would love to ride to Soundwave but you don't have a car, why not ask for a ride instead? Check out the Bla Bla Car website, download the apps for Android or iPhone and share/ask for a ride to Soundwave now!
By Boat
Found a cheap flight to Ancona or somewhere else on Italy's Adriatic coast? Why not get a ferry to Zadar or Split, the closest cities to the festival? Enjoy a stunning sea crossing whilst preparing yourself for Europe's most beautiful festival! Check prices and timetables here:
If you want to experience Croatia at its very best, try renting a boat and discovering its many islands, before anchoring in Tisno, just a short swim away from Soundwave! Try this boat rental website:
Just don't get too sea sick, 'cause there will be plenty of boat parties waiting for you when you arrive!
By Train
We advise against taking trains in Croatia. They are slower and much less reliable than the buses, and even Croatians don't often use them. However, if you really fancy the challenge, you can travel by Eurostar to Northern Italy and then take a train through Slovenia into Croatia. See the following sites for more details:
www.seat61.com/Slovenia.htm or www.adria.si.
Travel Packages
Why not take all the hassle out of arranging your trip and leave it to the experts? Festicket & Love Music Travel are pleased to offer holiday packages for Soundwave 2014. Tailor your package to include flights, accomodation & more! For those wanting to incorporate a little boat trip – Busabout are the guys who can provide that for you – check them out!

I can see why the BDSM community are up in arms. Here is a man who stalks his victim with a degree of fortitude that it's hard not to feel some begrudging sense of awe. He knows her bank details, in fact he has a built an entire file on her and flies out to interrupt a holiday with her parents, checking in to the same hotel as she's enjoying cocktails with her mother.
The reporting of this tragedy has been almost exclusively focussed on how the two women were purportedly sex workers, although Hong Kong police have not said as much. The killings are immediately characterised as American Psycho-style murders, giving them an aura of glamour. And predictably, within hours of his arrest, there was another woman in Jutting's life to cast blame on.
Supporters of Lord Morrow's Bill eliminated from their agenda the safety of the very women they claim are vulnerable. They attempted to defame those who do not back the criminalisation of the purchase of sex as supporters of sex trafficking in order to undermine their arguments. They should have properly examined the available evidence and consulted with those to whom the legislation applies: sex workers themselves.
As a full-time journalist I'm constantly exposed to the shitty, bleak side of life. As a result, I've learned not to sentimentalise and that certainly benefits me in this role. Because there is no point in breaking down in tears while a sex worker tells you she has been raped or robbed or both. It doesn't help. What I can do is empathise. Provide a hug. Organise immediate, practical assistance such as food, clothes, medical care or arrange police intervention. Violence against sex workers is a huge problem and this is exacerbated by the fact that selling sex is, after all, illegal.
If Blackstone's Formulation is based on the principle that the state should not cause undue or mistaken harm then we need to seriously consider the harm to victims of rape and sexual assault who are subjected to an horrendous ordeal and then tragically failed by a system which allows them to be discredited and humiliated in the name of justice and all too often their courage in coming forward turns out to be in vain.
Most people are voiceless because no one is letting them talk or listening to them when they do. There is a lot to be said for quitting being the voice of the voiceless and letting people speak for themselves. But not by those seeking to abolish the sex trade. Words are put into people's mouths when they can be, and when they can't, those people are silenced and dismissed.
Like any human being, I watched the documentary Hunted with an open mouth and an increasing horror. I also watched it whilst trying to quieten the several fireworks going off in my head at once. The similarities between homosexuals' rights in Russia and sex workers' rights in the UK/Ireland are breath taking.
Yesterday the European Parliament backed measures which have been rejected as a violation of basic human rights by Amnesty, Human Rights Watch and UNAIDS. Mary Honeyball MEP's report advocating the criminalisation of the purchase of sex were widely criticised... Despite the overwhelming evidence Ms. Honeyball charged ahead on a moral crusade to eradicate sex work at whatever cost.
A carefully orchestrated campaign to criminalise the buyer of sexual services is set to be centre staged this year. Emotions, prejudice, feminism, ideology and religion are creating a vortex, and revolving at its centre is the question as to whether selling and purchasing sexual services is right or wrong. Where are the rights of sex workers in this debate, have they been consulted and has their voice been heard?

Democratic rivals Sens. Barack Obama, D-Ill., and Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., will square off for the last debate tonight before Pennsylvania voters got to the polls next week.
Clinton is favored to win Pennsylvania, but a new ABC NEWS/Washington Post poll finds her support nationally has further declined.
Likely Democratic voters, 51-41 percent, say they want Obama to win the nomination — his biggest advantage to date. Obama has also cleared the "electability" hurdle in Democratic minds — 62 percent say he is more likely to win than Clinton.
In more bad news for Clinton, 58 percent of Americans polled said she is not honest and trustworthy. Obama beats her on this attribute by a 23-point margin.
"She flip flops on issues too much and seems like a professional politician whose goal is just to get elected at any cost," said Gene Louin, a Pennsylvania voter standing in line at Geno's Steaks in South Philadelphia.
Added Michael Gold of Westchester, Pa., "I do not think Hillary is trustworthy — not because she's a woman, not because she's a Clinton — not because she's a Democrat, but because she's a politician."
A record high of 54 percent of Americans have an unfavorable opinion of the New York senator, according to the ABC News/Washington Post poll.
Her husband, former President Bill Clinton's unfavorability rating is almost as high at 51 percent — his highest level since leaving office.
"I love Bill Clinton but I'm not happy with the way he has conducted himself," said Mina Bannett of Cherry Hill, N.J.
The former president will be watching the Democratic debate tonight in Pittsburgh with Mayor Luke Ravenstahl and Dan Onorato, the Allegheny County chief executive.
The poll finds that Obama has largely moved beyond what seemed to be a big threat to his campaign — his 20-year relationship with his controversial former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
In Philadelphia last month, Obama distanced himself from the inflammatory comments of his pastor, who said "God damn America," in a sermon repeated on cable television, among other incendiary remarks.
The poll finds 59 percent of all adults, and 72 percent of leaned Democrats, approve of the way Obama dealt with the Wright controversy. However, nearly 50 percent of Democrats polled said they were concerned the Republicans will use the Wright imbroglio effectively against Obama if he is nominated.
Despite more calls this week for Clinton to step out of the Democratic race, the poll finds 55 percent of Democrats say she should stay in the race if she unexpectedly loses the Pennsylvania primary next week.
"She should persevere until it's over and completed," said Sharon Lumb of Philadelphia, whom we met as she shopped for produce at the Italian Market.
Clinton currently trails Obama in the number of states won, the popular vote and the delegate count, according to ABC News' delegate scorecard.
Neither Democratic candidate will reach the 2,024 delegates needed to win the nomination before the Democratic convention this fall in Denver, and both are appealing to superdelegates — those 795 party officials and members of Congress — who may ultimately decide the nomination.

Playoff Split Means Early Day For Team USA At ISF World Championship
HAARLEM, Netherlands –- Following a near 30-hour delay due to rain, the USA Softball Women's National Team began the playoff portion of the International Softball Federation (ISF) World Championship on Saturday. Team USA, playing as the top seed from Pool B, defeated Canada 6-1 in their first game to earn a matchup later in the day with the only other undefeated team in the tournament, Japan. With a spot in Sunday's Gold medal game on the line, Japan jumped out early on the USA and never let up as they went on to win 6-1.
USA 6, Canada 1
Despite being held scoreless for the first three innings versus Canada on Saturday, Team USA posted six runs in the final four frames to take a 6-1 win and advance to the next round in the winners bracket at the ISF World Championship. Michelle Moultrie (Jacksonville, Fla.) and Lauren Gibson (Pasadena, Md.) each homered resulting in five of USA's six runs. Jessica Moore (Sutter, Calif.) started the game in the circle and lasted 3.1 innings before Sara Nevins (Pinellas Park, Fla.) entered in relief to earn the win.
"I loved the little things that we did to get the win over Canada," said USA Head Coach Ken Eriksen. "Sacrifice bunts, aggressive base running, those are things that don't look all that impressive on a score sheet but they add up to wins."
Samantha Fischer (Simi Valley, Calif.) lead off the top off the fourth with a ground ball single to short stop and advanced to second via a Moultie sacrifice bunt in the next at-bat. A walk and a hit-by-pitch loaded the bases for Team USA with Haylie McCleney (Morris, Ala.) up next. The outfielder singled to left field scoring the first USA run of the game.
The lead didn't last long as Canada started the bottom off the fourth with a single and followed it with a shot to center field that barely snuck past McCleney's glove. The first runner scored but Moultrie gunned down the second runner at third to preserve the tie through four.
Gibson walked to start the fifth inning and a Valerie Arioto (Pleasanton, Calif.) sacrifice bunt advanced her to second. Two batters later, Moultrie put Team USA ahead for good when she sent the first pitch she saw sailing over the center field wall.
Nevins retired the side in the bottom off the fifth and Team USA added insurance runs in the sixth. With two outs, Raven Chavanne (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) singled to third base and Kelsey Stewart (Wichita, Kan.) followed her up with a single to left field. With the runners on base, Gibson sent an 0-2 pitch over the center field wall for a three-run homer to give Team USA their 6-1 lead.
With the favorable lead, Nevins kept the Canadian batters in check through the sixth and most of the seventh innings. In the bottom of the seventh, the lefty gave up her first hit of the game, a two-out single to Joey Lye. In the next at-bat, with an 0-2 count, Jaclyn Traina (Naples, Fla.) entered the circle to pitch. Needing just one strike to end it, Traina followed a foul ball with a swinging strikeout and Team USA secured the win.
Japan 6, USA 1
Japan jumped out to an early lead on Team USA in their game late Saturday evening at the ISF World Championship. Facing Jolene Henderson (Elk Grove, Calif.) Japan scored one run in the first and added three in the second to put the Americans in a four-run hole early in the game. Offensively Team USA couldn't get much going early facing Japanese veteran Yukiko Ueno.
"We put the ball in play and put runners on base," said Eriksen. "We did some nice things, just had a few small errors and when you're playing Japan they will take advantage of those errors. The great thing is, we still have tomorrow. We just have to play great softball for one day and then we can call ourselves World Champions."
A Japan two-out single in the top of the first was followed by an Eri Yamada double scored the first run of the game as Japan went up 1-0. Gibson walked and Arioto singled in the bottom half of the inning but Ueno left them stranded, getting a strikeout to end the inning.
Japan added three more runs in the second off of two singles and a walk before Traina entered to pitch for Team USA. With two outs, Traina pitched a fly ball to end the Japan rally.
Both teams remained scoreless through the third inning. In the top of the fourth, Japan added a fifth run, this time off of Traina. Nagayoski singled to start the inning and was later brought around to score on a Kawano single to short stop.
Team USA gave up the sixth and final run to Japan in the top of the fifth. Mine doubled to right field to start the at-bat and after Sakamoto laid down a sac-bunt to advance her to second, a Sato single to short stop scored the runner from second putting Japan up 6-0.
The Americans finally got on the board in the bottom of the sixth when Hoagland drew a walk and later came around to score on a Kellie Fox (San Diego, Calif.) single to right field.

Kick in the pants time: IEA says smart grid and clean energy progress too slow
By: SGN Staff
By Jesse Berst
Quick Take: In the early days, clean energy meant renewables to most people. The smart grid was (at best) an afterthought.
Today, however, the smart grid is front and center in the clean energy debate. Its central role and vital importance are now widely accepted. That's the good news. The bad news, according to the International Energy Agency, is that things are not going well - not for smart grid nor for renewables, as the IEA's Executive Director expressed in the foreword to the 2013 version of the agency's annual progress report.
As you will see, the report cites the smart grid as one of the few bright spots but also asks for improvements.
IEA Executive Director Maria van der Hoeven did not pull punches in her introduction to the IEA's just released Tracking Clean Energy Progress. She had "stark messages:"
- Progress is not fast enough
- Glaring market failures are preventing clean energy adoption
- Energy efficiency potential remains untapped
- R&D must accelerate
- In particular, we are failing to make progress in carbon capture and storage (CCS)

First look at Andrew Rannells in 'Hedwig and The Angry Inch': PicAdd to Favorites | Girls
Andrew Rannels is taking over for Neil Patrick Harris as the lead in the Broadway production of "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" starting Aug. 20 and the first look at him in character has arrived. The "Girls" and "The New Normal" star is featured in a poster, very similar to the one that touted Harris as the show's star.
It was announced in June that Harris would be departing the role in August, with Rannels taking over. He's no stranger to Broadway, though. After roles in "Hairspray" and "Jersey Boys," Rannells originated the role of Elder Price in "The Book of Mormon"
Rannells also isn't new to "Hedwig," after playing the same role in a regional production of the rock musical about a transgender rock singer from East Berlin.

Alternative Factor - Worst Episode Ever?

Re: Alternative Factor - Worst Episode Ever?
Melakon wrote:
"The Alternative Factor" suffered a lot of backstage problems. The actor originally hired as Lazarus failed to appear on the first day, saying he forgot, resulting in the studio and/or production filing a grievance against him with the Guild. Robert Brown had to be hired at the last minute and the already built costume refitted. Then there's a questionable change in the script where a love story subplot between Lazarus and Lt. Masters was cut entirely because they'd hired a black actress for the role and were worried about offending parts of the United States.
I did not know any of this. Very interesting and explains many of the episodes faults.
I enjoyed the episode, and all of TOS really. The only Star Trek I did not like nor could I watch much of at all was Enterprise and Voyager.

Triple shade of black that my bleach should never fade me
from Robert Glasper (Ft. Yasiin Bey) – Black Radio Lyrics on Genius
Bleach diminishes, or whitens, color when we do laundry. Bleach is also a deadly chemical. But Bey is "triple shade of black" so his blackness can't be diminished or whitened.
On the same black national consciousness tip, Bey's debut album was titled "Black on Both Sides."

Below is the poem entitled In the Hour of My Night which was written by poet
Grugan. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Michael Grugan
Steel kiss from phantom blades abounding,
Adagios anguished, lick, resounding,
Fierce hammers rage, in Darkness pounding-
In the hour of my night.
My beggared soul to grim remand,
Nestles deep 'neath an ebon sand,
Where gaunt and ghostly jackals stand-
In the hour of my night.
With chaliced draught of Desolation,
Toasting Twilight's coronation,
Embraced! Poor heart's disconsolation-
In the hour of my night.
Gone, frailest hope to shadows tame,
When murmurs soft, this beast its name!
Fair Dawn droops spent, and mute, and lame-
In the hour of my night.

The wellbeing of all Victorians is directly connected to the health of our environment, the quality of our infrastructure and services, and the strength of our economy. Changes in our climate may put each of these things under pressure.
In 2013, the state's first comprehensive Victorian Climate Change Adaptation Plan was released.
It sets out how the Government is managing climate risks to our natural assets, essential infrastructure and services such as our waterways, transport systems, healthcare and emergency response systems. It shows that to be most effective, climate change adaptation requires government, businesses and the community to work together.
To find out more about progress since the release of the plan, read Building a Climate Resilient Victoria – Victorian Climate Change Adaptation Progress Report.
Following the State Election held on 29 November 2014, there has been a change of Government. The website will be updated accordingly.

Spring 2012 - Key
Southern Miss
What's happening this spring season? Several FSN publishers provide
their insider info on the key questions that matter to the real world of
college football. Scroll down for the links to all the spring questions.
Q: With all the personnel turnover and big changes, is the coaching staff starting from scratch?
From Drew White, GoldenEaglePride.com … There will be some personnel changes due to losing some key players to graduation, but the good news is that Larry Fedora and his staff put together several strong recruiting classes in a row, and there is plenty of talent for the new staff to work with. The only two areas with turnover and major changes are at quarterback and linebacker. Every other position will return players with experience. This is a veteran staff under new coach Ellis Johnson, and they know how to prepare a team. They have taken a very businesslike approach, and it's paying off.
What needs more work and rebuilding/retooling, the Southern Miss O or the D?
To this point in the spring, the defense has dominated and looks very strong. They will be running a very similar defense to last season's, so it has been a seamless transition for them. The strength of this defense could be the secondary, which is loaded with speed, talent, and experience. Deron Wilson and JaCorious Cotton lead that unit that will be very tough on opposing offenses. The biggest shoes to fill will be at linebacker, where the Eagles are replacing two seniors. Several candidates have emerged, with Alan Howze stepping up as well as redshirt freshman Terrick Wright and JuCo transfer Dylan Reda. The defensive line is very talented. All-world athlete Jamie Collins harasses opposing quarterbacks at the "bandit" position, and Rakeem Nunez has stood out early in the interior of the D-Line.
Offensively, it will take more time because of the loss of senior quarterback Austin Davis. The offense will be similar, but there will be some subtle changes that will take more reps to run smoothly. The Eagles are still loaded at running back despite losing Jamal Woodyard for the season. Kendrick Hardy is back after an injury last season kept him away most of the season, and Desmond Johnson is in his senior year along with Mr. Everything and the explosive Tracey Lampley, who will see time all over the field on offense. The receivers return two tall play makers in Chris Briggs and Dominique Sullivan, both of who emerged as big time targets last season.
What's the biggest insider storyline from this spring that the average fan should know about?
Who will replace four-year starter Austin Davis? At this point, both Chris Campbell and redshirt freshman Ricky Lloyd appear to be neck and neck with neither emerging much this spring. This battle will probably come down to the fall, where five-star QB Anthony Alford will join the mix as a true freshman. With everything else in place, the emergence and solid play at QB will determine if this team can win another conference championship.

Gear Review
Cheap easy surfboard rack!
These will fit great on Yakima or Thule bars, or even some "smaller" factory bars. I had them on my old Pathfinder bars, which were maybe 3" wide. The pads won't go all the way around wide bars, but you really only want to cover the top of the bar anyway, so you can just tie them on below, and they are fine. I use these pads, along with a set of tie-downs, to transport surfboards. Super cheap & easy way to move boards, boats, or anything else. Giving your rack the cushioning of these pads makes it much more universal, everyone should have at least one set!

As the Apple Watch (iWatch) release date approaches, Apple faces the sobering news that the other major wearable computing product on the market, Google Glass, has been discontinued due to lack of interest. It's enough to give pause to Tim Cook and his Cupertino minions, as Apple has just bet very publicly on its new wearable product and has high expectations in carving out a new market. But here's why the Apple Watch will outsell Google Glass handily:
Feature set: The iWatch already offers deep integration with the iPhone from day one and a full feature set which is polished enough to appeal to those who just want the product to work out of the box rather than feeling like they've bought a tinker toy. Contrast that with Google Glass, which shipped at least a year before it was ready, and ended up appealing only to those who enjoyed tinkering with half finished products.
Price: If the Apple Watch sounds pricey at $349, consider that Google Glass was selling for $1500. Apple may end up having to bend to market forces and bring the iWatch price down to $299 before long, but it's least it's within the realm of realistic gadget pricing.
Wrist: Plenty of people wear eyeglasses, but Google Glass created the specter of people walking around with a video camera mounted to their glasses, which made the public uncomfortable. The Apple Watch is worn on the wrist, where it won't freak other people out. Also, since the iWatch doesn't have a camera, there's little to worry about in that regard.
Cool factor: The first people to buy Google Glass were the kind of tech geeks who gave the product a highly uncool reputation by showing it off in dorky ways that didn't appeal to the mainstream, such as wearing it in the shower or live-streaming other patrons in a bar. The first people to buy the Apple Watch will be the type who want to use it to enhance their iPhone experience, and that will give the product practical word of mouth once its release date arrives.
The good news for Apple is that the Apple Watch shouldn't suffer from any of the key errors that were made with Google Glass. And the good news for Google is that if the iWatch does succeed as expected, it means the wearable market is for real and Google can take another crack at it after having learned from its early mistakes. The iWatch release date should arrive in the March to April 2015 range.
