Pituitary Tumor Surgery
Surgery is usually the main treatment for people with pituitary tumors. The most common surgery used to remove pituitary tumors is called transsphenoidal hypophysectomy. In this surgery, the surgeon will make a small cut behind the upper lip and create a hole through one of the bones of the nasal passage in order to reach the pituitary gland. The tumor is then removed. In this kind of surgery, no other part of the brain is touched, and there is no scar that anyone can see. It is common for microadenomas and soft, larger tumors to be removed this way. Another option may be to insert long, thin instruments through the nose, along with a very small camera on the end of a flexible tube (called an endoscope).
If a tumor is very large, or if it has spread to nerves in the area or other parts of the brain, transsphenoidal surgery may not be possible. The surgeon may need to open the brain through the skull, which is called a craniotomy. This is another type of surgery to remove pituitary tumors. This type is only used for large tumors or tumors that have spread to neighboring tissues.
Side effects of surgery
Side effects from surgery are uncommon. However, damage to large arteries, to nearby brain tissue, or to nerves near the pituitary, which rarely can result in brain damage, a stroke, or blindness may occur. Another rare complication is infection of the membranes surrounding the brain (meninges). This is called meningitis (infection and inflammation of the meninges).
A condition that does occasionally occur after surgery for pituitary cancer is diabetes insipidus. This condition results in excessive urination (the urine is very pale, almost clear), excessive thirst, and dehydration. It's caused by a lack of antidiuretic hormone, or ADH, which can be a result of the surgery. Diabetes insipidus generally goes away in a week or two with no treatment. However, a nasal spray that contains medication may be used to treat it.
Levels of other pituitary hormones may be low after surgery. This is less likely after surgery for a small tumor, but when larger tumors are removed, this side effect may be unavoidable. Hormone replacements may be given, if necessary.

Cable Assembly
A cable assembly is a collection of cables or wires that sends electrical signals or power. By putting the cables together, the cable assembly can prevent a disruption of signal that could be caused by various factors – such as vibration, liquid, heat, or electrical shorts.
Have you ever tried to define cable assembly? It's not easy. The best definition we can give you is this: a cable assembly is a collection of bound wires that diminish the change an electrical signal will be disrupted.
A cable assembly can be put together using a variety of casings. Regardless of the type, it's there to ensure that your power connector run at peak efficiency. How do they do this? It's a bit of a process.
- They are designed according to exacting size and power requirements
- This is translated into a diagram
- The wires are cut to length
- They are printed for ease of identification
- The wires are stripped (this exposes the metal and makes it easier to assemble)
- The cable assembly is then bundled and clamped
- It's finished with protective sleeves
This process is noramlly done by hand due to the exacting needs at various stages of production.
Once the cable assembly is ready, expert technicians will test the finished product. If the cable assembly doesn't do well during the test, it's thrown out.
A cable assembly is important to many different types of industries, including aerospace, industrial applications, the military, and rail systems.
But what do cable assemblies do? In short, they protect clusters of wires and make them more efficient. They minimize the amount of space a bunch of wires takes up and also makes them less vulnerable to corruption.
Harness and cable assemblies are important to a variety of different industries including aerospace, datacom/telecom, industrial, medical, military/defense, and transit/rail applications.

|Source information needed!
- Not to be confused with Demonhunter.
- For the Warcraft III unit, see Demon Hunter (Warcraft III).
Demon Hunters are dark, shadowy warriors who are shunned by greater society. They made a pact, long ago, to fight against the forces of chaos using its own terrible powers against it. These mysterious warriors ritually blind themselves so that they develop 'spectral sight' that enables them to see demons and undead with greater clarity. They wield demonically charged warblades in battle and even call upon demonic energies to augment their formidable combat skills. Although they are counted as some of the mightiest warriors within the night elves' society, the demon hunters are always maligned and misunderstood for making their selfless pact with darkness.[3] (WC3MP 56) Though many among the night elves and the Alliance fear the demon hunters and their pact with darkness, all know that demon hunters and their demonically-charged warblades have played an important part in combating what remains of the Burning Legion.[1]
Illidan Stormrage is the most famous demon hunter, and was the first of their kind. Even Illidan's own brother did not appreciate his sacrifice, and locked him below ground for thousands of years for trafficking with dark powers. Illidan's case was unique. Sargeras, lord of the Burning Legion, burned away Illidan's eyes with magic fire until only scorched sockets remained. Illidan's resulting sight was a maddening display of violent colors. His altered vision allowed him to easily recognize both demons and mortals with magic powers. In addition, Sargeras covered Illidan's body with black tattoos that increased his arcane power.[2]
Later, a group of night elves, inspired by Illidan's example, made a pact to turn the Burning Legion's powers against it, fighting destruction with destruction. Obviously they could not gain their powers in the same way Illidan did, but they discovered other means. In the millennia since, other night elves, and a few creatures of other races, have made the same pact, binding demonic essence in their bodies and using it to destroy the Legion's minions.[2]
Development & abilities
Demon Hunters have a variety of abilities that assist them in destroying demons, though the power coursing through their bodies also allows them to prevail over lesser foes. Demon hunters eschew heavy armor, valuing mobility and speed. As a demon hunter grows in power, they undergo a gradual evolution, becoming more and more demonic in appearance. The changes are cosmetic and can take many different forms, from burning eyes to black blood. By the time the demon hunter reaches the pinnacle of his development, he is a twisted and dark version of his former self - though the chaotic energy in his body does not affect his personality and allegiance (or so the demon hunters claim), it wreaks great changes on his physical form. The demon hunter's gradual evolution achieves its pinnacle as they become a demonic entity. Their appearance has changed to something frightening: The exact changes vary, but can include glowing red eyes; horns; clawed feet and hands; nonfunctioning wings; cloven hooves; a spiked tail; dark skin; a deep, rumbling voice; and similar cosmetic changes. The demon hunter becomes an outsider.
The demon hunter can drain a demon's energy to fuel their own powers. They mainly use arcane and fire energy. Shadow energy is rare. No other energies have been confirmed. The demon hunter can channel the chaos energy within them into a melee weapon to increase its powers. In time the demon hunter becomes more proficient in channeling demonic energy into their weapons, and highly skilled demon hunters are adept at this technique. Demon hunters have shown the ability to cover their bodies in a shell of flame. At the pinnacle of evolution, Demon hunters can unleash the demon in them and turn themselves (temporarily) into something more. This is called Metamorphosis.
Demon hunters hone their speed and maneuverability to overcome their foes.[4]
Night elf society shuns demon hunters. Most night elves don't understand the noble sacrifice that demon hunters make; therefore, they make another sacrifice: to be outcasts from their society. Other cultures share the night elves' distrust of demon hunters, and the shadowy individuals are not welcome in cities throughout the Alliance or Horde-controlled lands. Citizens and soldiers may allow a demon hunter to stay at an inn or take a brief rest at a tavern, but they watch them warily and breathe sighs of relief when they leave. These people do not see the demon hunters for the heroes and martyrs they are; they see them as dangerous individuals who consort with dark powers, almost as bad as warlocks. Such ignorance embitters many demon hunters, and most are solitary souls. Some are fortunate enough to find the company of a few individuals who appreciate them, or at least show them little ill will. Recently, knowledge of a secret order of demon hunters has come to light. Little is known of who they are, but they call themselves the Dark Embrace. Hints of their path have surfaced in the days following the Cataclysm, rumored to be found in the bleak lands of Darkshore and the tainted glades of Felwood.[2]
Equipment and weaponry
Though equipment obviously varies from demon hunter to demon hunter, one universal element of the order seems to be the blindfold. Used to conceal the remains of the demon hunters' mutilated eye sockets, the demon hunter blindfold is usually some dark but mundane-looking fabric. Blindfolds are occasionally neglected, perhaps to make the demon hunter appear more frightening and intimidating. A second common occurrence among demon hunters is the tendency for the males among their numbers to be stripped to the waist, which is just one display of the demon hunters' emphasis on the importance of agility and general rejection of heavier armor. Those female demon hunters that have surfaced have been similarly garbed, wearing only the bare minimum of clothing on their upper bodies, sometimes even nothing at all. Demon hunters further tend to wear what appears to be cloth or leather, rarely (if ever) donning plate and mail, favouring greater speed and agility on the battlefield.
To contrast their stark lack of armor and clothing in general, demon hunters seem to typically carry large, curved warglaives, in the style of Illidan Stormrage's own Twin Blades of Azzinoth. Though the exact reason for this tendency isn't well explained, there are several possible reasons. One is that this kind of weapon has simply become a tradition over the years, later demon hunters mimicking the first of their kind. Another is that this style of curved warblades is common among the kind of demons that demon hunters have to kill as part of their basic initiation process. A third explanation is that the dual-bladed nature of their large, curved weapons allows them to deal the most damage with the least amount of effort, allowing them to focus on their agility and speed. A final explanation is that this kind of weapon is somehow easier to magically charge or channel through, though there is nothing that directly suggests this.
Demon hunters also possess a plethora of magical abilities, most notably the ability to metamorphose. Many abilities also tend to vary from demon hunter to demon hunter, possibly derived from the type of demon that they originally partially absorbed.
Demon hunter warblades description: These blades appear as a strange cross between a small buckler and a sharp-looking, curved, two-bladed short sword. The demon hunters of the night elves wear these blades while they hunt the minions of the Scourge, the Burning Legion or other dark adversaries worthy of such weaponry. While many of the demon hunters rely on non-magic weapons, eventually most have either one of these double blades or a matching pair.[5]
The use of such weapons tells a lot about the individual wielding them. The inwardly-curving nature of the blades means that the demon hunter must get extremely close to their opponent, literally within what would normally be punching range, in order to get maximum use of the blades. The warblades would be swung in wide arcs at extreme speed, viciously lacerating the foe. More often than not, the warblades will have intricate serrations on the outer edge of the blade near the central buckle, adding yet another facet to the brutal nature of the weapons.
Demon hunter races
Any race can become a demon hunter, though almost all demon hunters today are night elves, with a minority of blood elves.[2] The tradition of demon hunters arises from night elf history, and almost all demon hunters are night elves. A few blood elves have made the pledge as well, seeking revenge for the destruction of their home.
Humans can also be demon hunters.[1] some of these demon hunters can be found guarding Mount Hyjal with the help of fellow night elf demon hunters.[6]
Demon hunters in other races are rare, but some exist.
Notable demon hunters
In World of WarcraftThis section concerns content exclusive to World of Warcraft.
Naturally, Illidan Stormrage is the most prominent demon hunter currently residing inside World of Warcraft, but there are several others of note.
- Loramus Thalipedes resides in Azshara. He directs the player to the true name of Razelikh the Defiler, and crafts a piece of enchanted azsharite weaponry that can slay him and his minions.
- Vish Kozus (unconfirmed) located in Cenarion Hold in Silithus. He is only the quest-ender for a small handful of quests, and no backstory is available on him. However, he wears a blindfold and dual-wields two long, curved sabres.
In The Burning CrusadeThis section concerns content exclusive to The Burning Crusade.
- Theras, Netharel, and Alandien are night elf demon hunters brought to Outland by Illidan, and are training the apprentices at the Ruins of Karabor.
- Altruis the Sufferer is a night elf demon hunter who also accompanied Illidan to Outland, but later defected. He can be found battling the Burning Legion in Nagrand.
- Varedis is also found at the Ruins of Karabor. Of the first five blood elves to be trained by Illidan, he was the only one to survive with his sanity intact. He is now in charge of training additional blood elf demon hunters.
- Leotheras the Blind, who dwells in Coilfang Reservoir, was one of two blood elf demon hunters to be trained by Illidan and survive. His sanity, however, did not.
- Inside and around the Black Temple are quite a number of apprentice blood elven demon hunters.
In CataclysmThis section concerns content exclusive to Cataclysm.
- Feronas Sindweller resides at Felwood, where he kills demons that are disguised as druids.
- Telarius Voidstrider, the Herald of the Dark Embrace, whose ghost resides inside Bashal'Aran Collapse beneath the Maw of the Void.
- Loramus Thalipedes, initially found dead (in several pieces), is resurrected through a quest chain involving getting his body parts from Dreadmaul Ogre lockers and resurrecting him at the Altar of Storms in Blasted Lands. Rather than have to travel to Azshara to complete the "You are Rakh'Likh, Demon" quest line, he is conveniently located in Blasted Lands for both Alliance and Horde. The Cataclysm quest line is slightly different to the classic quest line.
Other named demon huntersThis section concerns content exclusive to Warcraft III.
This is a list of random demon hunters that appear in Warcraft III:
- Shadowsong, Shadowfury, Shadowstalker, Flameseeker, Darkweaver, Darkterror, Darksorrow, Sindweller, Painkiller, Hellbourne, Wrathbringer, Ragerunner, Firebrand, Bloodwrath, Terrorblade
- The Demon Hunters as a whole resemble the Miraluka, a race from the Star Wars universe. The Miraluka are born without eyes (Demon Hunters carve their eyes out ritualistically), they are extremely Force sensitive (certain Demon Hunters such as Illidan Stormrage possess similar powers.) The Miraluka see through a vision similar to that of Spectral Sight called "Force Sight". The Miraluka are very reclusive (most Demon Hunters do not enjoy the company of others, hence are reclusive as well. Many Demon Hunters are a part of the Illidari, which is a faction on it's own. Separate from the Horde, the Alliance and the Burning Legion.)

MEEKER, Co. (KUSA) -- The tree that will light up the grounds of the U.S. Capitol in Washington D.C. this year is coming from Colorado.
"[It] typically is real quite around here," Schwartz said.
That's changing, at least for a day, because Schwartz and his lodge is about to gain national exposure.
"It's like winning the lottery," Schwartz said.
VIDEO: Meeker Will Furnish Capitol Christmas Tree
It's all thanks to a special tree that will soon be standing bright and tall in front of the capital building in Washington D.C.
The tree will begin its journey to the nation's capitol Friday.
Most of the cost surrounding the tree gets absorbed by volunteers and donations from sponsors like Mack truck, which donates several trucks and the fuel need to get the tree to D.C.

A strong storm will develop over Kentucky on Tuesday, moving eastward over the North Carolina-Virginia coastline Tuesday night into Wednesday. This will bring plenty of wind and rain to eastern Carolina with snow further to our north.
Periods of moderate to heavy rain will be likely Tuesday night with a rumble of thunder possible as well. One half to one inch of rain will be possible.
As the storm strengthens off the coast Wednesday, cold winds will crank up across the area. Winds of 20 to 30+ mph will drive the temps into the middle 40s by mid afternoon. Periods of lighter rain may start to mix with snowflakes over far northern counties by late Wednesday. The best chance of snow will stay generally north of the state line. Snowfall may accumulate to 1" along the northern state line. Much of the state of Virginia could see 3 to 6+" of snow on Wednesday.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- C.J. Leslie scored 25 points -- including six straight during a key second-half run -- to help No. 20 North Carolina State beat No. 1 Duke 84-76 on Saturday.
Richard Howell added 16 points and 18 rebounds in a relentless performance for the Wolfpack (14-2, 3-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) in a matchup of the teams predicted to finish 1-2 in the league.
N.C. State was picked for the first time in nearly four decades to win the league, though two early losses drained some buzz.
No longer. Now N.C. State is back on everyone's radar, while the Blue Devils (15-1, 2-1) are no longer unbeaten.
Seth Curry scored 22 for Duke, which shot 45 percent and hung around early by crashing the boards for second-chance baskets. But the Blue Devils had no answer after halftime for Leslie and Howell, a duo that helped the Wolfpack lead all second half.

Jackson walked with her head down when DeKalb County detectives escorted her inside Magistrate court for her first appearance Tuesday.
Shelton Latroy Ray is the biological father of Sasha Lamaya Ray, 2, of Decatur. "She told me out of her own mouth that she did it," said Ray.
According to investigators, Jackson was babysitting Sasha and her four other young siblings while both parents were at work.
Ray said Jackson was caught with a boy inside the home while he and her mother were away from the house.
Ray told investigators that Jackson called him Monday and confessed to the murder.
Veronica Hillman, a coworker of Ray's wife who is also a neighbor, reports seeing the teen allow the boy into the home. The coworker then called the wife at work and went to the house.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (NBC33) - Winter weather and icy roads have caused more than a few headaches for drivers on roadways in the area, but it has also resulted in big business for those responsible for clearing those roadways off.
Plow drivers have been working around the clock clearing roads and parking lots throughout the past few weeks, many putting in extensive overtime to do so.
"I had some guys during the blizzard log up to 80 hours in one week," says Mark Nolot, President of Vision Scapes in Fort Wayne. "So it's been nice for them and us. It's good revenue but it is tiring when you've been up for so many long periods of time for so many days."
As Nolot describes it's not just the below freezing temperatures and falling snow that have been causing problems.
"In years past we just haven't had that much drifting. We might have some slight drifting one or two events. We've had so many events where the winds have been so high that things just drift over. So even though the snow has stopped you're still out plowing and you'll have to come back and revisit and visit and revisit."
Nolot says his crews have already laid over one-thousand tons of salt. That is in addition to the 265,000 tons the Indiana Department of Transportation has used.

Partners in Style
Not only do these ladies know how to accessorize, but they also look great in bright and vibrant colors. They have lived near each other for over thirty years and have obviously influenced one another's style.

One Book One Community: "The Ballad of Frankie Silver"
One Book One Community Encourages Sumner Residents to Read a Historical Mystery
People love to talk about books they are reading, so you can imagine the conversation if everyone was reading the same book. That's the goal of a new program for Sumner County residents. Volunteer State Community College is partnering with area public libraries in what is called One Book One Community. The selected book this year is "The Ballad of Frankie Silver" by Sharon McCrumb.
Here is the description of the novel from St. Martin's publishing:
"In a little mountain cemetery in Mitchell County, North Carolina stand three graves—all belonging to the same man. Behind the legend of graves is the true story of Frankie Silver, an 18-year old frontier girl, hanged for murder in Burke County North Carolina in 1833, for a crime she might not have committed. This stirring tale of mountain justice is also a study of a frontier family, and of the contrasts between the mountain South of log cabins and trappers and the flat land South of plantations."
"There are two settings for the book, 1830's Virginia and 1970's Tennessee. I think that makes it especially interesting for people," said Louise Kelly, the director of the Vol State Thigpen Library. "Sharyn McCrumb shows the parallels between the two cases."
Sharyn McCrumb is the author of several novels, including "The Rosewood Casket" and "She Walks These Hills." Her books have been named Notable Books of the Year by the New York Times and the Los Angeles Times, and she has been honored for her contribution to Appalachian literature.
The Vol State Thigpen Library is leading the project and working with the public libraries of Gallatin, Hendersonville, Portland, Westmoreland and White House.
"Working with the libraries helps to get the entire county involved," Kelly said. "The goal is to get more people reading and enjoying the fun of discussing what they read with friends and neighbors."Sharyn McCrumb will visit Sumner County on Thursday, October 24, 2013 for a free event at 7 p.m. in the Rochelle Center of the Thigpen Library on the Vol State campus at 1480 Nashville Pike in Gallatin. Everyone is invited to come find out more about the book from the author's perspective and ask questions. A reading guide and other information about the community read can be found at www.volstate.edu/OneBook.###

Vol State Thigpen Gallery Shows Alicia Henry Artwork
Submitted on November 05, 2010 at 11:00 AM
The Volunteer State Community College Thigpen Library Gallery will present the artwork of Alicia Henry in an exhibit beginning November 6. Henry is an associate professor of art at Fisk University in Nashville.
Henry has received numerous grants and awards from various foundations including the Ford Foundation, and the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation. She has had exhibitions at the Cheekwood Museum and the Frist Center for the Visual Arts.
"Isolation and interaction is a common recurring idea in my work," said Henry."I am interested in the complexities and the contradictions surrounding familial relationships as well as societal differences and how these variations affect individual and group responses to themes of Beauty, the Body, and Identity. My current work explores these ideas, addressing the process through which groups, specifically female, navigate these issues."
The exhibit will run from November 6 until December 18 at the Thigpen Library Gallery on the Vol State campus at 1480 Nashville Pike in Gallatin. For more information call 615-230-3201.

After its 2007 launch at the Venice International Film Festival, La Montre Extraordinaire La Rose is blossoming this year in a sparkling version lighting up the wrist with over 14 carats of diamonds. Its delicate curves are inspired by the 19th century, and its finely relief-worked bloom sculpted in white gold is entirely covered with precious stones accentuating the finesse and the lifelike motion of the layered petals.
Born from the expert fingers of genuine artists, this Haute Joaillerie model weds beauty and precision thanks to the most complex of all gem-setting techniques: snow setting. Within the workshops of the Manufacture, gem-setting is a discipline exercised as an art in its own right. Not only do they master all the customary gestures involved in their craft, but the Jaeger-LeCoultre gem-setters have themselves developed procedures in order to meet specific aesthetic demands. Invented by Jaeger-LeCoultre, snow setting calls upon all the artisan's expertise in order to achieve this voluptuous, frosted effect that is truly unique in its kind. With the model itself as the only point of reference, the craftsman's work is gradually revealed as the closely nestled stones progressively carpet the entire metal surface.
In addition to the complexity of the task and the time required to perform it, the prior selection of the diamonds also calls for considerable expertise: the smallest diameters must be able to merge seamlessly into the most daring shapes – as in this particular instance where the petals provide no flat surface whatsoever. The rose is covered with a total of 1,420 diamonds. Working with an extremely broad palette of individually cut and adjusted stones, the master gem-setter fits them closely side by side, playing with the varying diameters, and little by little this fine workmanship entirely covers the white gold of the case and dial. The latter is demurely swept over by a pair of hands and punctuated by pink sapphires symbolising the precious and transcendent nature of time. Finally, such extraordinary gem-setting is matched by an exceptional mechanism: the manually-wound Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 846 which lies hidden at the heart of this sparkling floral creation.

Bicycling magazine makes its Editors' Choice selections for the best road bikes of 2010.
This Defy shares the same frame geometry as the Defy Advanced that won the 2009 Editors' Choice award for in the plush category. It's slightly relaxed and a bit more upright than a standard race bike. Like all finalists in this category, Giant offers the buyer a choice of compact double or triple crank.
Testers said:
- The Giant just cruises along, steady under pedal input, never penalizing you through a broad power range.
- As smooth as it is, it's still a sporty bike with good responsiveness and a lively feel.
- Smart move by Giant outfitting the Defy the 25c tires because it probably played a part in the velvety smooth ride.

Stacks of rough koa timber beams give way to a small shop filled with sawdust, noisy machinery and fifty or so craftspeople cutting, sizing, sanding, bending, gluing, hammering and forming wood. Everyone works with a singular, determined purpose: to make the industry's most sought after ukulele.
Have you ever played an ukulele? Have you picked one up and strummed your fingers (or fingernails) across its soft nylon strings? Have you heard the surprising rich, distinctive tones of those four silky filaments? If you haven't, you really, really should. "What," you say, "I'm no musician!" Guess what? It doesn't matter.

Ki hoalu, which translates to English as "loosen the key," is the Hawaiian name for the solo fingerpicked style unique to Hawaii. In this tradition, the strings (or "keys") are "slacked" to produce many different tunings.

This is pure trollin dont read don'tttt yew readdd itt
I was just going to leave well enough alone. But after being trolled into checking my Mail tab by Logress in order to receive a THUNDERDROP, I was just pushed a little too far. If the card was free and just there, it would be one thing. But honestly, it was just a troll move to ask me to enter a serial number just to get a thunderdrop. That's just a troll move Logress. Do you not comprehend the absurdity of offering ANYONE this card, as a "gift" on a "special occasion"?
But I just wanted to have a discussion about a game called ShadowEra and just to illustrate how much Alteil customers are getting trolled on a daily basis. Recently I've been trying out this game called ShadowEra. Basically I paid $40 and now I own 95% of all cards in the game with 4 copies of each of those cards. So with relatively little cash I now have the freedom to make almost any deck I please without having to worry about the existence of Bringer or Diodora or Rasam SS. Which I tell you the truth is a HUUUGE relief. I won a few games and I used the Gold (ShadowEra's equivolent to the Alteil Point Card), in order to pinpoint exactly the card I wanted. I did the math and since it takes about 10 wins in order to get 400 gold which is what some Epic cards (ShadowEra's 5star) cost to pinpoint, basically each win in ShadowEra gives you about 6 point cards.
Case in point, I started playing ShadowEra last week. I saw a cool looking Epic Rarity (5star) card and thought to myself, "I want that". Guess what, a few wins and $5 later, I now have 4 copies of that card. And no, it's not overpowered. And no, it's not useless either. It's kind of....ermmm...balanced? It's a card that lets me do direct damage to my enemy's life points but whenever I use it I have to swap a random card with my opponent. So as you can imagine, hilarity ensues. That's why I wanted it. And that's why I have it. After so much experience with Alteil's point card system, I feel like I'm taking a breath if fresh air. Which is why I've decided to do a sloppy and hastily written explaination so that you can debate or not debate amongst yourselves about the merits of Alteil system vs ShadowEras. You can ask yourselves why can't Alteil's system be this way. Read for details below.
Today I asked a question in the ShadowEra forum and a member of the design team gave me a balance related answer.
But yeah, I dunno, when I had to enter in a serial number for a freakin thunderdrop which can't even randomly kill Dio, does'nt do crap vs lycans or Bringer or Rucca. I mean wtf is the point of giving ANYONE this card? Stop trollin Logress. And yes I was one of the main people using thunderdrop back when there was a brief little fad with it and wyverns, but ultimately you just have to be honest with yourself that handing this card out as opposed to balancing the game is just a pure troll maneuvar and I don't even care if the spelling is onkorrect. A 40% win hail Mary card for stompoing noobs only...thanksssssss and Rubia is Shite btw - I was the only sucker trying to get her to wrok
Difference in Rarity System
Alteil has 1 star - 5 star.
ShadowEra has Common-Uncommon-Rare-Epic
Difference in Currency
We all know that 1 stars recycle for 5 gran, 2 stars for 10, 3 stars for 30, 4 stars for 150, and 5 stars for 300 and that 10 point cards gives a 1 star and 60 gives a 5 star.
ShadowEra is different. ShadowEra also has a dual currency system. You pay with money, then that money is converted into Shadow Crystals. Which you use to purchase packs. Then they have a system where when you buy a booster pack with your ShadowCrystals you are able to sell your unwanted cards back to the shop at which point you are given Gold in return for them. This gold can be used in order to PinPoint the exact card that you want to purchase out of the shop. Basically...ShadowEra Gold = Alteil Point Cards. But this is how they do things differently...and FAIRLY. The Gold (point card) value of each card in the shop is determined by market forces. In other words the more people want a card and the fewer people that sell that card, the higher the price. The more people sell a particular card and the fewer who buy it, the lower the price. I found this to be a wonderful setup as it makes lesser used cards easier to get. Which indirectly encourages players to try different and diverse strategies. When you think of it, isn't it silly that a Bringer costs the same Point Cards as a Proposition? No wonder nobody plays Proposition. If Proposition's point card value was determined by player demand, the cost would plummet, and SOMEONE out there would be willing to point card him and give him a try.
That said, There are No Bringers in ShadowEra
Despite what I just stated about the Gold value of pinpointing cards in ShadowEra using Alteil as a point of reference, there are no Bringers or Diodoras in ShadowEra. There are no Thundergirl Rubias or Thunderdrops, or Propositions. Therefore, the Gold value (point card) is not a true measure of raw Power or "OPness" it's just a measure of the general trends. Generally speaking, a Common Card's price will range from 100gold to purchase up to about 110gold, depending on market demand for it. Uncommons range from 200-250 I think. Rares cost 300-375. While Epics can cost from 400-775. Each card sells for exactly half it's purchase price. Therefore "recycling" a really high demand Epic will be worth more Gold to the player as well. And due to the fact that no ultra Epic card has the relative power of an Alteil Bringer or Dio, there are many times where selling one would actually be the sensible thing to do in order to purchase some Common cards with the Gold.

At the end of six long days of jury selection in the case against one of two men accused in the deadly 2007 Cheshire home invasion, there jurors were chosen.
One man, a writer who was out of the country during the horrific 2007 murders of Jennifer Hawke-Petit and her two daughters, Hayley, 17 and Michaela, 11.
And two women: a grandmother raising her grandchild from East Haven. And a newly married young woman who works as an analyst for the state Department of Environmental Protection, who was chosen Tuesday.
It's a roller coaster ride of minutia, emotion and everything in between inside that New Haven courtroom -- including, thankfully, a little humor.
When the state DEP analyst said Tuesday that she recognized State's Attorney Michael Dearington from a gym she used to attend, Superior Court Judge Jon Blue didn't miss a beat when he asked, "Is he powerfully built?"
She wisely didn't answer.

What geographic factors determine where a path, trail or road wends its way across North Carolina? What physical factors dictated transportation and settlement patterns in Colonial times in the Old North State? This presentation touches on the geology and geography of pre-modern byways, the flora and fauna needed for travel, and the environmental and geopolitical factors determining where we live to this day.

"Introducing Her Royal Higness...
...our sweet little lady"!
She was born May the 12th (early morning). Labor went all well and after a few hours we have a beautiful daughter. She looks like a little rose, soft and pink with smooth snow white skin and long dark hair. My darling baby girl is amazingly quiet and shy, she almost never cries but tries to smile at her mama. We got to know each other a little more than a day ago but I am completely in love, she is such a cute little thing.
With the help of Nameberry we picked the most gorgeous name ever. It is Cornelia Hermione Winter. We had a list of Cornelia and Cordelia with nickname Cora but after she was born I had no doubt it's a tiny Cornelia. She makes adorable funny face when she eats or smiles and we have decided quirky Nelly will suit her perfectly.
Huge, enormous thanks to everyone who helped us with her name. You are all fantastic namers ladies and I am as grateful as I only can be.
I am sorry I can't post a photo of our girly but Nelly's papa isn't comfortable with them in the Internet. Maybe I will post a couple when she gets older but, trust me, she is such a lovely baby. Our hearts are fulled with happiness and we are thrilled to be her parents.

The move to a new Alaskan prison in September could leave 1,200 empty prison beds empty and 200 jobs lost in a region of Colorado starved for jobs.
According to the Greeley Tribune ( http://tinyurl.com/croxqp5), the GEO Group, a private company that runs the four-year-old medium security prison, could be left without any customers.
So far, there is no word on any further contracts with other states, including Colorado's Department of Corrections.
The 1,250-bed correctional center was built in 2009 by Cornell Companies, but later was taken over by the GEO Group, which runs private prisons throughout the world.

San Diego Museum encourages youngsters to aim high with professional juried exhibit of student works
Number of works chosen from 44 public and private county schools for 'Story of Me' exhibit
It's not often that a child's artwork gets displayed beyond the classroom or refrigerator, let alone in a museum.
But the San Diego Museum of Art ensures that happens every two years in "Young Art," the Balboa Park institution's biennial youth exhibit.
"Young Art 2013: The Story of Me" showcases 200 works by students at 44 public and private schools from across San Diego County at the museum and a gallery in the Jacobs Center for Neighborhood Innovation in southeast San Diego.
More than a dozen North County schools participated, including San Marcos' Mission Hills High School, which has 10 pieces in the exhibit.
The museum "does an amazing job installing the show," Mission Hills ceramics teacher Tim Benson said. "They go so far above and beyond, and actually do an academic, professional production of a kids' art show."
Students and their teachers were invited to an opening reception at the museum last week. The exhibit continues through May 26.
The San Diego Museum of Art — which counts works by Georgia O'Keeffe, El Greco, Henri Matisse, Claude Monet and Diego Rivera among its permanent collection — has been exhibiting youth art since not long after its opening in 1926. "Young Art" as it exists today was established in the 1980s, said Amy Briere, manager of educator and student programs.
All K-12 schools in the county may submit works, and most media are accepted, such as paintings, sculpture and photography. It's free to participate.
Briere said the museum received about 350 submissions this year, by schools from Escondido to Chula Vista. The exhibition is juried, meaning the works are judged competitively and not every piece is accepted.
All submissions must be tied to the biennial theme, which this year is about personal identity.
The museum selected 150 works for display in Balboa Park. Pieces from the permanent collection are paired with the youth art. The other 50 "Young Art" works are displayed in a professional gallery setting at the Jacobs center, Briere said.
New to "Young Art" this year is an audio tour at the museum. Several students recorded material for the tour, Briere said.
Some of the submissions are collaborative works, so the museum is actually exhibiting the work of more than 300 students, she said.
The reasons for holding a youth art exhibit are many, Briere said, from raising awareness about the importance of art education to showing what students are capable of — "amazing things."
The youth exhibit also brings new audiences into the museum, she said.
For teachers, exhibiting student work is imperative.
"Exhibition is the purpose of the visual arts, just as performance is the purpose of the performing arts — the exhibition space is our stage," Benson said.
Terrilyn Quick, the art teacher at Escondido's Bear Valley Middle School, is equally passionate about exhibiting her students' work.
"In the arts, the way that you have your final is by showing," Quick said. "You never get to share your thoughts, emotions," otherwise.
Quick requires all of her full-year students to submit works to the San Diego County Fair art show. "It's about having a goal. If you don't, then you have nothing to aspire to."
But exhibiting also is about the magic of seeing one's own work in a museum.
"The most enjoyable part of getting my students to exhibit their work is for them to experience, firsthand, the validation of their creative efforts and to truly understand the real meaning of what they are learning about in class," Benson said.
"It's very special for the kids and parents to see their work displayed so professionally in a museum of this caliber."
Seventh-grader Jessica Harkleroad, 13, Quick's student at Bear Valley, realized that when she first saw her mixed-media sculpture, "The Mermaid in the Ocean of Pollution," hanging in the 87-year-old museum.
"When (Quick) told me that it made it, I didn't really think, 'Hurrah!'" Jessica said. "But then I got there and saw it and was walking around the museum seeing all these amazing pieces of art."
