I also had issues with fatigue that I just attributed to middle age/work/kids/life, etc. Put off checking until the wife finally had enough and made me see Dr about it. test results confirmed I had Type II Diabetes. I was stunned...I don't fit the profile (5'10", 170lbs, no family history). She started me on Metformin and Lantus insulin and I thought "OK, bad but I can deal with this". Only problem is damage had been done. You see diabetes will destroy your arteries and who knows how long I had been going along clueless to my condition.
Two months after I was diagnosed, in a 5 day period I suffered 2 heart attacks resulting in a stent placement. At 45 yrs old.
Guys, I can not stress enough to you....don't ignore those little signs that something may be wrong and get your ***** checked out. If you're feeling sluggish or out of sorts or whatever just go see the damn Doc. The look of pain and fear in your wife's eyes and your kids eyes is not something a man should ever see. I know I don't ever wish to see it again.
Hope everything works out for ya Bruce.

Hunters Helping The Hungry
 Generous hunters are donating deer to the Hunters Helping the Hungry (HHH) Program, providing thousands of pounds of venison to needy families across the state.
The 2016 season marks the 25nd consecutive year that the Division of Natural Resources Wildlife Resources Section (WVDNR) has sponsored the HHH Program. Since the start of the program, generous hunters and financial contributors have enabled the processing of 23,981 deer. That has allowed 917,350 pounds of highly nutritious meat to be made available to needy families and individuals throughout West Virginia.Hunters participating in the program take their deer to certified meat processors where it is turned into two-pound packages of ground venison. The Mountaineer Food Bank (Gassaway) and the Huntington Area Food Bank, both members of Feeding America, collect the venison and then distribute it to the needy through their network of qualified charitable food pantries, soup kitchens, senior centers, shelters, community centers, orphanages, missions, and churches statewide. Financial support for the HHH comes from concerned individuals, businesses, conservation organizations, foundations and churches.
Click here to view the Participating West Virginia Meat Processors in PDF format.
The West Virginia Council of Churches has established and promoted a Share the Harvest Sunday in November. Participating Churches asked each member to contribute one dollar, five dollars or whatever they can afford to the HHH program. Since the Share the Harvest Sunday was implemented a substantial amount has been donated to the HHH Program and plans are needed to expand this worthy venture to all churches that wish to participate. (Click here to view Share the Harvest Sunday letter)
West Virginia is fortunate to have the generosity of so many hunters. The potential for HHH to continue to donate thousands of pounds of venison to the needy each year makes it a wonderful and worthwhile program. However, the total cost of this program can reach over $119,000 in one year. There is a lot of interest in this program, but the WVDNR cannot continue the HHH program at this cost without finding additional financial contributions. This DNR is restricted from using sportsmen's license dollars to fund this program, and is completely dependent upon monetary donations by concerned individuals, businesses, conservation organizations, foundations, and churches.
Interested individuals, churches, organizations and businesses can ensure the perpetuation of Hunters Helping the Hungry through their generous monetary donations. These donations are accepted throughout the year. Checks or money orders can be made out to Hunters Helping the Hungry and mailed to:
For more information concerning the HHH program, or to discuss tax-deductible donations, contact Tyler Evans at 304-924-6211 or email email@example.com
Table 1. Hunters Helping the Hungry Annual Report.
*Processing and distribution cost can vary year-to-year with deer harvest and donations, and has amounted to over $119,000 in certain years.
This program is being presented with financial assistance as a grant from the WV Department of Health and Human Resources.

Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney's stay with a Liberal MP and the party's interest in recruiting him have exposed the challenges and expectations facing public office holders — but also the ambiguity over how ethical standards are applied.
Some former federally appointed officials say personal relationships cannot be abandoned, while others believe an ethics investigation should be launched into the bank governor's actions.
Senior public office holders appointed by the federal cabinet are required to abide by a long list of ethical guidelines and standards of conduct, included in the Conflict of Interest Act and in rules set out for governor-in-council appointments made by cabinet. The Bank of Canada has its own conflict of interest policy.
Mr. Carney's case raises a wider question, regardless of the written standards or guidelines, as to how far senior officials — who are expected by the public to be politically neutral — must go to safeguard their reputations and the overall standing of their offices.
Jim Flaherty, the Finance Minister, said Wednesday he has chatted with Mr. Carney about the recent revelations, but would not comment on whether he thought the bank's ethical guidelines should be updated.
I'll let the governor respond, if he chooses, to questions about conflicts
"I'll let the governor respond, if he chooses, to questions about conflicts at the Bank of Canada," he said in Burlington, Ont.
Asked whether there is a need for government agencies to have an independent third-party review potential internal conflicts of interest, the minister said MPs have a "rigid regime" to follow, but would not comment on federal entities outside Parliament.
Despite reported Liberal entreaties, the Bank of Canada insists Mr. Carney — who will take over as the new governor of the Bank of England in July — did not contemplate jumping into politics.
The central bank has confirmed Mr. Carney and his family stayed at the vacation home of Scott Brison, the Liberal finance critic, during their summer holidays in Nova Scotia.
The Bank of Canada's general counsel, who is responsible for enforcing its conflict of interest policy, has determined Mr. Carney's visit did not breach conflict of interest guidelines in any way.
Ottawa has a set of "Ethical and Political Activity Guidelines for Public Office Holders" that applies to appointments made by cabinet, including officers of Parliament such as the federal auditor general, chief electoral officer, ethics commissioner and lobbying commissioner.
Those guidelines and the Conflict of Interest Act do not apply to Carney in his role as the governor of the Bank of Canada, who is technically appointed by the central bank's board of directors but ultimately approved by cabinet.
The bank has its own conflict of interest guidelines, which say employees must never "solicit gifts, hospitality, or other benefits in connection with their bank duties."
You just cannot forsake friendships because you're occupying an office
However, it says Mr. Carney's acceptance of hospitality at Mr. Brison's house relates to his personal life and has nothing to do with his bank duties.
Jean-Pierre Kingsley, Canada's chief electoral officer in 1990-2007, said he does not see an issue with Mr. Carney having vacationed with an MP who is a longtime personal friend.
"You just cannot forsake friendships because you're occupying an office at a moment in time," he said.
Mr. Kingsley, whose job was to regulate political parties, said he kept relationships to a professional level and he had no friends in politics, which made it easier to avoid any potential conflicts of interest.

|Done purely for a Christmas-y photo shoot in London with Street-Angel as my matching Sheryl.
All the pictures of the figurine show it as pink, bar one that is red. So I chose to do it in pink this time as that was the cheapest option but might make another for next Christmas in red!

Well, Sissy and the little one moved into their own place, but they visit me tons so I can still lick the little one some, but mostly it's quiet here now. Mommy and Daddy bought a new house, which is all one level, so I don't have to deal with stairs anymore. I love it! I can lie outside on the screened in porch and sun without worrying about anyone messing with me. I'm an old grey girl now, but I'm still happy and healthy. The vet said so. He said I'm in great shape for my age and as long as I take my joint supplements and anti-inflamatory medicine (which is a fancy word for treats, since they taste like treats to me) every day, I feel good. I don't do zoomies as much as I used to, but I get excited and run around every now and then.
I mainly like to relax with Mommy and just be home.
Lots has happened since my last diary entry! Mommy is ALWAYS on the computer, so I don't get a chance to keep everyone updated, but here goes. My human sister and the baby live with us right now, and it's kind of fun! The baby is 20 months old now, and she's learning to be gentle with me, and likes to "give me love". It's not so bad. She is eating in a high chair now, which is great, because she tends to drop things, so I score food a lot! She thinks it's fun to feed me, too, which Mommy tries to get her not to do, but hey, who can blame her! Even a baby can tell I'm too cute for words! She's here every other week, so I get a break, but I sort of miss her when she's not here. So lots of changes in our house, but I can adjust! Who says you can't teach an old dog.....
My human half-sister came to visit this weekend with her little one. The baby is crawling! And she loves me! Boy is she fast! I spent a lot of the weekend keeping an eye on her. When she cries, I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure if I just lick her all over I can fix whatever's wrong. Mommy just laughs when I try to baby the baby. She's not so bad, and Mommy promises that as she gets older, they'll teach her how to play gently with me. Right now she tries to pat me but sometimes ends up hitting me in the nose! For now, I'll just bump her a little with my nose when she comes on too fast and try to be patient with her. Guess she's not so bad. Mommy is loving being a Nana, so I guess I can enjoy being an Auntie Doggie. Sometimes when I wander through, the baby just squeals and points at me. Yesterday I did zoomies through the house and she just laughed and laughed!

Ok so I ordered my Zone 6" lift today and they are saying I need a torsion bar unloading tool to properly install this lift (because I will be installing it myself). Now I am asking around to see do I really need this tool? Or can it be done without it?
Because I have seen the tool and all it looks like to me is a c clamp with some nipple type ends on it. It costs about $100 for the tool, expensive little sucker, and I really don't want to pay that price for something I'm going to use probably once. With that being said though if I absolutely need this tool and can't complete the install without it then I will buy it.
Just thought I would ask you guys about it.

Mancan helps search for killer
Mancan Staffing is making good use of their Mancan Facebook Fan Base as well as their presence in the communities in which they do business, by helping the U.S. Marshalls with their search for the person instrumental in committing the horrible crime against Ashland's own Lynn Jackenheimer. With more than 2000 Facebook Fans, Mancan has posted to their page the picture of a pick up truck sporting a large banner across the tailgate that says "Wanted" and shows the picture of a person of interest along with the vehicle this person was last seen in.
Mancan tracked down the company responsible for the production of the banner and discovered that a Graphics company in Ashland was responsible for making that banner. Mid Ohio Graphics owner said she would make those banners for Mancan for $41 each which is well below her cost. Mancan purchased 22 of them to hang outside every office location in the hopes that someone would recognize the person in the photos and call the number on the banner. With thousands of Mancan Employees coming through our doors each day, we are sure this will be one more way we can be of help in our communities.
We are in these small towns, these people are our friends and neighbors, our employees. We have an office in Ashland. This town is devastated.
We feel it's our civic responsibility to get involved when someone in our community needs help. It's the least we can do.
If anyone else wants to order a banner for the back of your truck or to hang on your porch feel free to call Mancan or Mid Ohio Graphics in Ashland to order them. Let's really get this guy's face out there so he can't hide from this. Let's help get swift justice for Lynn Jackenheimer!

Thoughts on Bible and energy
Time seems to slip by so fast anymore for me, but there was a letter to the editor of The Daily Record back about seven weeks ago, I think by a woman from Millersburg about holy Bible and times prophecy.
Doctor David Jeremiah on WCRF (90.5 FM) and pastor Joe Silvestri of Wooster Bible Church, I rate both as most excellent. Joe is on Wooster 960 AM at 8 on Sunday mornings. And oh man, does David Silvestri lead the singing at the church.
I read about Smith Dairy of Orrville ("the dairy in the country") that isn't in the country anymore, in the articles about their setting up to use natural gas as truck fuel and also G & S Titanium going with solar panels for part of their electricity (the Geiser with the geyser on Lincoln Way East). I give both of them a most excellent commendation for cleaner air.

Watch Gareth Peirce discussing her work and Dispatches from the Dark Side: On Torture and the Death of Justice with Guardian legal affairs correspondent Afua Hirsch at the Frontline Club in London.
Victoria Brittain reviews Dispatches from the Dark Side for the Institute of Race Relations website.
Reading her litany of horror, delivered in cool legal language, any government lawyer, or MP, or official in the Ministry of Justice, might feel the need to resign in order to keep their self-respect.
Gareth Peirce spoke about Dispatches from the Dark Side on BBC Radio 4's "Woman's Hour."
Stuart Jeffries interviews Gareth Peirce, author of Dispatches from the Dark Side: On Torture and the Death of Justice, as well as Gerry Conlon of the 'Guildford Four' and Moazzam Begg, whose wrongful convictions were overturned by Peirce.
Peirce's debut book presents a set of devastating yet elegant essays, each written as an "urgent SOS" from 'the dark side'—"the shadows in the intelligence world"—so swiftly embraced by Dick Cheney, just days after 9/11. They lay out, eloquently, the legal principles that might provide a life raft "where the facts suggest that the ship of state is sailing towards moral and political catastrophe," and call for an accounting of the British government's activities in the torture, rendition and internment without trial of those suspected of involvement in terrorism.

Post of the Day
July 28, 1999
From our
AOL Folder
Posts selected for this feature rarely stand alone. They are usually a part of an ongoing thread, and are out of context when presented here. The material should be read in that light.
Subject: AOL vs The World
Author: Standabove
I've been lurking on this board for a while now and watching the internet jihad between AOL holders and @Home holders. As an AOL holder for some time (2+ years) I've watched the nay sayers and doubters of this company get left in the dust. AOL has been good to me, but I've noticed an alarming trend that makes me, for the first time since buying, doubt the company's long term potential.
While some on this board have been waging a war of words with the @Homeies, I think you've totally misidentified your enemy. The current "broadband battle" is about access- who gots it and who wants it. Huge corporations (AOL included) headed by ruthless CEOs are positioning themselves to decide what the world will use to communicate in a new age of connectivity unparalleled in history. Cable vs copper wire is a tiny skirmish in a much larger campaign (simply a means to an end.) The real focus of this issue is resources- which include delivery (speed) but also include infrastructure, ubiquity, reliability, cost, familiarity, ease of use, brand identification and a host of other smaller, intricate characteristics.
|"Huge corporations (AOL included) headed by ruthless CEOs are positioning themselves to decide what the world will use to communicate in a new age of connectivity unparalleled in history."
Use the resources to get the access. Simple, yes?
Those little free ISPs do not have the resources to deliver digital connectivity to the world. They are only competitors in the same sense that a roadside fruit vendor is a competitor to Dole. AOL has many of these resources in at least some quantities, and they are defiantly protecting them scorched-earth style. In doing so they are positioning themselves in the sights of the one company that has more of these resources than most other companies combined.
Who has the money to rush headlong into any business enterprise he chooses? Who has the ubiquity of platform from which to launch an assault on any software company (that is what AOL is rapidly becoming) with near impunity? Who's wrath has AOL been courting with increasing frequency as of late?
Could it beeeeee....
No, but close. Its Bill Gates.
Think about it, AOL has squarely set itself against a company who is clearly determined to control how the new information economy works. In a battle for subscribers, AOL has put its proprietary online content (which is similar in function if not in form to MIE) and "portal" status squarely against Microsoft (as well as a few other players as well.) AOL intends to be the new Windows for the digital economy, the format by which people collect, view and manage information from their home. Case has stated as much. But instead of focusing exclusively on developing the resources they will need to innovate and create the environment in which this will happen, they have been sidetracked- bickering over a small homesteader's plot while the entire West lies unconquered. The formidable AOL is fighting not just @Home (content, pipe) but AT&T (brand name, marketing, worldwide industry partnerships) and the mighty Microsoft (platform, ubiquity and more money than God). And potentially on AOL's side? The mighty power and wisdom of the US Justice department and or FCC! <Just a hint of sarcasm> Just how do they intend to win? By shutting MSFT out of their messenger service? Slings and arrows...
|"...if AOL tries to crash a party to which it was not invited, by conducting a lengthy court battle and waving the one finger salute to the world in a bid to dominate the web by itself, it will likely fail."
Of coarse, in this scenario even @Home may end up being hobbled, but at least they're willing to ally themselves by not trying to replace MSFT in direct competition. When Gates replaces the AOL icon in Windows 200X or CE or whatever whose will replace it? @Home? Maybe. Right now MSFT is simply hedging its bets with its investment into AT&T to insure its software powers whatever the internet morphs into, but if AOL tries to crash a party to which it was not invited by conducting a lengthy court battle and wave the one finger salute to the world in a bid to dominate the web by itself it will likely fail. Maybe sooner. Maybe later. But eventually.
Look, I tend to lean towards the libertarian view, so even though I own AOL and do not own @Home I'd like to see the open access question end in @Home's favor. That may seem self defeating, but I think it will rapidly improve the internet experience for all persons involved by giving companies the financial incentive to invest in it (whether it be cable or satellite). Also, I think AOL can compete very successfully in that environment by building alliances with infrastructure (perhaps their own cable network), developing more efficient means of delivery (DSL, satellite) and focusing on their true trump cards- content and ease of use. Some of you will say they're already doing that and they are, to a certain extent. But trust me, I've been down this road before. As an Apple shareholder I've watched my favorite little company get crushed tilting at the bespeckled windmill in Redmond, WA while trying to protect its proprietary properties from in the face of overwhelming competition. Its not a pretty sight.
Just an opinion from an interested Fool.
Long on AOL...for now.
PS- Has anyone read "The Plot to Get Bill Gates" by Gary Rivlin? Read it and you'll begin to see the market forces that are bound to shape AOL's future.
PPS- Full disclosure, I also do not own any MSFT shares. But I probably should <shudder>.

As a first time writer on the blog, I'd first like to introduce myself to our oh so loyal audience. My name is Jen, the (now sorta) new Account Manager here at Amplify Interactive. I've lived in Oregon for the whole of my 30 year life and have loved every minute of it. Advertising has been my life ever since I graduated from college. With new technology and more social channels popping up just about every month…every single day is different. The majority of my Account Management career was focused in planning and executing Direct Response television campaigns with an emphasis in multi-channel attribution. So how did I end up at a boutique SEM agency you ask?? Because Search Engine Marketing is where it's at. It's the most efficient and highly targeted media channel.
Throughout years of attribution analysis it was clear where people's focus was moving…online. Consumers browse, research, and now, engage with companies/products online. The best part about that is, it's much cheaper to reach them through PPC and Social channels AND get them to actually take action…which let's face it, is the bottom line. So with that said, I've learned so much over the past four months and feel compelled to share, what I see as, the top five reasons to STOP overlooking your Search Engine Marketing plan.
1) Potential customers need to be able to find you in order to use your service or buy your product.
If you haven't put in the time and money to ensure you show up in search results when consumers are looking for you…you shouldn't waste your money advertising anywhere else. Sadly, I will admit that in all the years I was involved in multi-channel media plans and attribution models, PPC was very rarely even mentioned as something important to consider. I mean, if you're going to spend the money to develop a new TV campaign, display at a tradeshow, or launch a new product, the goal is most certainly to create buzz and drive more traffic/sales to your website or call centers. And as we've all experienced, there's nothing more frustrating than trying to find a company or product and getting shown everything but the company's website you're looking for. So please, please, please don't spend one more dime on advertising until: PPC campaigns have been setup properly, tracking codes are in place, the best assets have been chosen, and you don't just push them live and then forget them (and if you're not sure what "properly" means…check us out on SlideShare for some free tips).
2) Once those potential customers have found you, you want them to be served precisely what they were searching for.
If the search was for "Ethics Training" you want them to be directed to your best asset (whitepaper, webinar, services page, etc.) that could potentially get you that lead or sale; not to your generic home page where they have to navigate their way through all the different options before they can even find the "Ethics" section. With the proper keyword research, optimization, tracking, and ongoing analysis within your PPC, SEO, and Social campaigns, you can ensure you are paying attention to your different target segments wants/needs and giving them the proper solution the first time they come to you.
3) Spend money and get immediate, trackable results.
PPC is the most efficient way to start driving traffic to your website. Though it is dependant on other marketing efforts to drive demand, it's by far the channel that you see the most return in since it captures all the interest the other mediums stir up through awareness. You may have heard the terms "push" vs. "pull" when describing offline vs. online media and I believe that's the best way to visualize the purpose of individual marketing channels. TV/Radio/Print/Email/SEO, even online display all push awareness for your company/product, while search "pulls" that interest and directs them to the appropriate page.
4) Testing is the key to success and in an environment that changes daily, online media allows for larger impressions at lower costs.
Before spending thousand of dollars on production of newspaper or TV creative, wouldn't you feel more comfortable knowing what some of your target customers think about it? In fact, that's what a majority of creative agencies do now anyway…test their creative concepts or offers through banner ads or online focus groups in order to reach a wide range of their customers at the lowest cost possible. In TV specifically, a minimum of $25k and two weeks on the air is necessary to gain any statistically sound learnings, whereas learnings from online media (of course unique to search volume) can be gained at a fraction of the cost (almost always under $5k) and can sometimes only take a few days. As customers search patterns and needs shift and new competition pops up every day, it's crucial your message is continuously customized.
5) The data's available, why not use it?
Regardless of how much time and money your company decides to invest in PPC, SEO (Content and Link Development), and Social (Facebook, Google+, Twitter, Pinterest) campaigns, the facts can't be denied…people WILL be looking for and researching you online. Please don't waste that valuable information by not capturing it or analyzing it. Do you know how potential customers find your product or service? Do you know what they're actually interested in? After seeing the data that's available to them (through keyword research), almost every client I've worked with has been surprised by what keywords or phrases customers actually use vs. what they thought their customers used to find them or were interested in. All that data can then be used to shape the way you communicate to your audience and allow you to be more specific to their needs when delivering them a solution.
And there you have it! After overlooking this crucial part of my marketing campaigns for so long, I'm committed to make sure companies stop making the same mistake. Call us today, ask questions….just make it happen!

- Check if there any other symptoms, such as pain, cramps, nausea, dizziness, or any feeling that disturb your daily activities. If one or some of those symptoms occur, you need to see your doctor immediately.
- If only light bleeding occurs, but no other symptoms detected, usually you just have to reduce stress, take a good rest, and eat nutritious foods. It's usually caused by hormonal imbalance due to bad daily routine. But if the bleeding continues for the next 2 months, you need to go to doctor to have complete examination of your hormone level.
What can cause mid-cycle bleeding?
- Hormonal imbalances. Most cause of mid-cycle bleeding is hormonal imbalances, or your hormone level is not in the right level. In this case, the blood usually dark or brownish and the bleeding is heavier. You may feel a little pain or cramps. Your doctor usually give hormone therapy after a full blood check. Hormonal imbalance can cause serious problems (cancer, infertility, etc) if not cared well. Usually it cause small bump in uterus, like what i got now. On the right the USG picture of my uterus, showing 0.72 cm bump (marked with small "x"). But it's not a big problem. The bump will vanish with 3 month medroxyprogeterone acetate therapy.
- Ovulation. The good news is: that ovulation sometimes cause a light mid-cycle bleeding occurs, and it is very normal. No worry about that. During the ovulation, the ovary follicle ruptures to release egg, and cause a very light bleeding. The blood usually pinkish and your cervical mucus will be clear and stringy. To identify this, you have to be sure that you are ovulating when the bleeding occurs. There are numerous ovulation test pack which you can purchase on your local drugstore.
- Endometriosis. Endometriosis is a gynecological medical condition in which cells from the lining of the uterus (endometrium) appear and flourish outside the uterine cavity, most commonly on the peritoneum which lines the abdominal cavity. The uterine cavity is lined with endometrial cells, which are under the influence of female hormones. Endometrial-like cells in areas outside the uterus (endometriosis) are influenced by hormonal changes and respond in a way that is similar to the cells found inside the uterus. Symptoms often worsen with the menstrual cycle. (source: wikipedia).
- Pregnancy or misscariage. First or second week of pregnancy can cause a light bleeding. It is normal, and considered as a sign of pregnancy. Bleeding can also be sign of misscariage if you're pregnant.
- Infection. Mid-cycle bleeding usually caused by infection if you experience pain and smelly cervical mucus.

A game with a strong narrative focus is not negatively impacted by a tighter mechanical rule set. There is no correlation to be made here. I also fail to see why this school marm thing keeps coming up. If someone is dead set on making a dud character, then just get them to use an npc class that suits them.
I'm starting to wonder if magic items are actually too weak to be honest. At least, from my perspective, if items had the same relative strength as a class feature at the level it becomes feasible to purchase that item, then inequity in class design would have a lesser impact than it currently does.
Right, why would an adventurer not go out and pay for an epic outsiders service instead of buying a friggin hat that still puts them face to face with potential death and dismemberment? It may not work forever, but purchasing way above your cr can be accomplished through spell services. Buy a hat, or send in assault angels into the bbegs lair. Which makes more sense in the context of the universe? Which is more fun to deal with as a GM?

Case in point. How many adepts can I keep in my employ with 45000!!! gold pieces? Why have magic items if they don't even make sense? There's no sensible reason to ever create this type of object. You could feed an army for a month with that much gold!
Does no one care that magic items shouldn't exist!? Why would you buy this if you can keep a Balor on call for a friggin year!?
(Did not fact check the numbers. Expect some discrepancy in how long you can bind a Balor for.)

Blah blah blah spellcaster overlords blah your own fault for not picking a caster blah.
We need to make sure we maintain the status quo where only one group has access to the good game features right?
After these discussions I kind of wonder why umd isn't on every non casters list. The devs are clearly saying umd or gtfo.
I honestly can't be bothered to look at magic items really. They're either boring, incredibly situational, or cost so much that you'll never see them in a game. I almost wish magic items and feats were removed from the game. False choice is just work.
Maybe that's the idea! Make the meta game as much like work as possible so that everyone hates it. That'll show those silly munchkins!

You could also do something like doubling an effect like alchemist fire requires eight times the fuel for each step above standard. A corresponding 5' to the explosive radius makes sense.
That would make it an interesting, if expensive, option later. Just getting 3d6 with a fifteen foot explosive radius would require 64 alchemist fire flasks.
Dawnflower dervish/Loracle? You don't end up with full bab, but the inspiration bonus is doubled and only works on you. Tonnes of healing potential, two spell lists and all good saves as well as skills coming out of every orifice.
The only thing that's a little bit of a downside is that you have two spell lists so you'll have to plan your turns ahead of time.
bigrig107 wrote:
Yeah, that's definitely true. I was more speaking too the relative strength of feats in the general sense. You(general) just don't get enough feats for them to be applicable in such a narrow way. If the feat gave niche advantages in one area, I would expect that you end up with other advantages at later levels from that feat.
I think the trouble with feats like this is that feats take up too much real estate on your character progression for the pay off they offer. I mean, a spell that has an effect of this sort would be of trivial opportunity cost for the most part, but as a feat it represents ten percent of your character... Which is too costly for the pay off in the extreme.
Of course, this is more an issue fundamental to the games assumptions and is likely a consequence of feat design being overly conservative at inception.

You can type in caps all you want, but everything you've said aside from pointing that some spells have alignment descriptors is your opinion of how spells with alignment descriptors should be handled in play. I don't think your stance is objective, I just think it looks that way to you because you're standing at the center of it.
If a thread could be 'won', this would be the post that does it.
Cognitive bias, it's a thing.
I would love to see either racial levels or mythic tracks for some of the cool iconic monster types that a lot of players would like to play. I figure something like four or five levels to become a werewolf or something and have some of those levels progress class abilities like a prestige class.
So, for the hypothetical werewolf class levels, you would get half those levels toward the barbarian or druid class abilities or something. You kind of have to do that to make those levels less punitive later.
I could even see doing something like the lycanthrope effects altering rage and wild shape respectively.
theres a great many posts recently making a claim to other peoples motives that really have no place here. Ashiel and others have made very reasonable arguments as to why a thing ought to be considered good aligned or not. The fact that the book is not consistant with those views does not somehow make them amoral.
Look, if I somehow gained power over the world and made oranges illegal and proclaimed that any who ate oranges would, henceforth, be considered evil, do you think eating oranges would actually be morally wrong?

To be fair, some of us can't type a million words a minute Tacticslion, so that's a thing. :)
Personally, I hope so. I keep getting into groups with DMs who demand this sort of game. Inevitably, the ad hoc house rules start piling up and the game just collapses under the Titanic lack of understanding in the game system. Last couple guys who ran games I was in had that mentality and the game mechanics were broken beyond repair before the first session was finished.
Long story short, if you don't care about game mechanics and think everyone ought to just RP better, then don't fiddle with math you don't understand.
I can tell you with 100% certainty that science isn't remotely involved. If it were, we would have a lot more rigorous testing methodology.
There's definitely art involved, but art is not objective the way mathematics is. I'm not suggesting that any structure needs to be perfect, we are all human after all. That doesn't mean we need bad saves to scale so slowly as to be irrelevant(an example). Math is super important, and the more you employ it the better the system will be because the vast majority of the game relies on it.

So, mathematics won't give you balance of any sort and all I care about is min maxing and power gaming. You have no concept of what your talking about. Everything in that paragraph is biased and has nothing whatever to do with game systems and everything to do with your personal hang ups. Do you think your helping, really? The opening poster wants to make some home brew alterations to the game and you 'help' by insulting them... What the hell.
Yeah, I was suggesting a move to true neutral if you feel you must do something. if some other major transgression occurs in the future, the loss of powers and eventual change in deity are more reasonable.
To be clear, I don't generally think pushing alignment is a worthwhile endeavor given the tiny pay off you may or may not get from it. At least, getting consensus at the table is a nightmare in a lot of ways. Even if you happen to be in a group of people who can keep their heads, you are still fairly likely to disagree on a number things.
This fellow does seem to think strange things about being good though. I am curious to know how torturing someone could be good. Its pretty hard to get reliable Intelligence from a guy with clamps on his nipples. I think most would agree that the guys only thinking about clamps.
You know, you'd think a group of people like all of us, who are interested in a game like this would be more careful about our pejoratives and general bashing that we probably got enough of in high school.
Using the mechanics of the game to your advantage is not something that you ought to be singled out and called names for. It's a friggin game people.

Well the main reason is that divine casters get their power from a deity, so they have to keep them happy, mechanically this means they get nice things like casting in armour, better base attack bonus etc. compared to arcane casters who generally don't get armour, are useless with weapons and have less health, in return their power is their own.
Sure, but you kind of need armor as a divine caster. The cleric spell list is built on the assumption that you have armor so you can get in close and heal or attack. It's not as powerful as the arcane list. I honestly don't think the devs consider the deity thing as a balance metric, it's more to keep the theme.
This may have been different in previous editions, but I'm not as well versed in that area.
Dude, change his alignment one step toward neutral. If he doesn't get the message he never will.
I personally hate alignment because of the human element(nobody can be objective and still be human) which makes these calls very much about perspective. That said, advocating torture is a pretty clear violation of good and really ought to move someone to neutral.
A real mechanical change that doesn't immediately turn off all of his class features is the best middle ground and it gives you a stronger position if and when you actually do take his powers away.
Well, as it applies in multiple arenas, I would pars each area separately to determine relative strength and then charge that value as there isn't really a benefit to them being combined in a point based system. If anything, it gates one attribute of the feat behind an additional charge.
Edit: read as the sum of the two parts.
Feats ought to be judged by how well they do what they are trying to accomplish. Your going to have trouble measuring the power of weapon focus against skill focus because they involve different parts of the system.
If you want to compare feats, an easier approach might involve comparing combat feats against other combat feats or skill feats against other skill feats. For whatever reason, magic feats are usually better than their competition, so most of those should be on the expensive side.
Add your strength modifier again every time you get an iterative attack instead of turning the crossbow into a longbow light. It takes fewer feats to use and penetrates DR better than a bow, but it's too end damage is lower.
If someone really wants to focus on it, they could take vital strike feats to pick up the crossbows extra dice. You still end up with less damage because you can't add weapon bonuses more than once. Also, if you miss, your boned.
Edit: the extra strength could represent that extra crank you get in before firing.

Piracy is more a natural consequence of huge inequality than an indication of any particular moral standard. People wouldn't even contemplate theft if they had the wealth to purchase products. There's enough wealth world wide to solve most of the world's problems, we just choose to spend it on guided explosives and aircraft carriers.

David Foster Wallace, Postmodern Novelist and Writing Teacher, Is Dead at 46
David Foster Wallace, a writer who was known for his sprawling postmodern novels and humorous, heavily footnoted essays and journalism, died on Friday in an apparent suicide. He was 46. Police officials in Claremont, Calif., said Mr. Wallace's wife returned home Friday night to find that he had hanged himself, The New York Times reported.
Mr. Wallace, who won a MacArthur "genius grant" in 1997, taught at Pomona College, where he held the Roy Edward Disney Chair in Creative Writing. He previously taught writing and English at Illinois State University, in Normal.
He was perhaps best known for his complex, 1,079-page novel Infinite Jest, which was published in 1996 and was set in a future in which years are named for corporate products. The novel drew comparisons to the works of William Gaddis and Thomas Pynchon. Time magazine put Infinite Jest on its list of the 100 best novels from 1923 to 2005.
Mr. Wallace's short stories and essays were also acclaimed. In his travel essays, he had a knack for exploring ordinary cultural events — a Caribbean cruise, a Maine lobster festival — and finding the grotesque and absurd in them. The Boston Globe said that his essay about the Maine lobster festival, which was published in Gourmet, "ranks as one of the most extraordinary New England-themed magazine articles of all time. It is alternately jarring, disjointed, contrapuntal, maddeningly long, and enviably brilliant."
At a 2005 commencement speech at Kenyon College, in which he made a reference to suicide, Mr. Wallace told graduates that caring about people and being educated were keys to the only real freedom in the world.
"The alternative is unconsciousness, the default setting, the rat race, the constant gnawing sense of having had, and lost, some infinite thing," he said. "I know that this stuff probably doesn't sound fun and breezy or grandly inspirational the way a commencement speech is supposed to sound. What it is, as far as I can see, is the capital-T Truth, with a whole lot of rhetorical niceties stripped away. … None of this stuff is really about morality or religion or dogma or big fancy questions of life after death. The capital-T Truth is about life before death." —Scott Carlson

There actually isn't very much wrong with the 42XL2E's HD pictures at all, in fact. As I hinted earlier, occasionally some colour tones look a touch over-ripe. Also you have to be a bit careful with some of the TV's settings; for instance, I'd recommend always using the Movie preset but making sure the backlight is knocked back to no more than 60 per cent, and that the 'advanced' Film mode setting is deactivated as it can introduce some odd twitching artefacts over horizontal motion. But provided you take these precautions, the 42XL2E should leave HD fans very happy.
Shame the 42XL2E's standard definition performance is nowhere near as good. Presumably because of issues with the set's rescaling processors, colour tones tend to look markedly less credible while you're watching standard definition fare; there seems to be more glitching around moving objects, and the picture generally looks a little softer than it ideally should - especially if you've got some low-level noise reduction in play to counter the otherwise slightly over-obvious MPEG noise.
Sonically the 42XL2E is a real disappointment. Things are OK during relatively quiet moments, such as the Blood Diamond sequence where Archer, Vandy and Bowen head through the jungle after ditching their vehicle following an attack on their convoy. At such peaceful moments the amount of detail in the mix is impressive. But the moment things kick into any sort of action gear, such as during the RUF assault on Freetown, a pretty disastrous lack of dynamic range becomes apparent, leaving the soundstage sounding cramped, thin and flat as a pancake.
If you're in the market for a pretty-looking HD telly, the 42XL2E is worth checking out, as it's one of the best LCD TVs around when the source quality is high. But its weak audio and average standard definition efforts make it a trickier recommendation as a straight 'living room' TV.

Node 0.10.15 was released last week, which quickly followed 0.10.14. The newer release adds a fix for
process.getuid, to address an issue on Mac OS X:
This commit should unbreak npm on OS X - it's hitting the new 'uid must be an unsigned int' check when installing as e.g. user 'nobody' (which has an UID of -2 in /etc/passwd or 4294967294 when cast to an uid_t.)
Version 0.10.14 fixed bugs in
url, and upgraded npm and uv.
node-interval-stream (GitHub: czzarr / node-interval-stream, License: MIT, npm: interval-stream) by Stanislas Marion is a simple module that provides a
Transform stream that triggers events based on an interval. The author's example combines
IntervalStream with
request to display the results of a large download every 2 seconds:
var request = require('request');
var IntervalStream = require('interval-stream');
var is = new IntervalStream(2000); // emit every 2 seconds
StreamToMongo (GitHub: czzarr / node-stream-to-mongo, License: MIT, npm: stream-to-mongo), also by Stanislas Marion, allows data to be streamed to MongoDB. This could be used to stream JSON data directly into a database. The example in the readme uses the npm registry, effectively allowing you to create a structured local cache in Mongo of all the module metadata on npm.
Finally, fileswap-stream (GitHub: bpostlethwaite / fileswap-stream, License: MIT, npm: fileswap-stream) by Ben Postlethwaite allows underlying file resources to be swapped. This might be useful if you're streaming data to log files, and want to split the files:
Write to a writable file-stream that swaps out its underlying file resources according to swapper and naming functions. This can be used for a persistent log or data stream - just stream to it 24/7 and let it swap out to new files whenever you trigger it to.

April 2014
By Purnima Coontoor
Purnima Coontoor profiles three bravehearts whose tryst with illness expanded their consciousness, and compelled them to serve others in pain
|Devieka Bhojwani, right, helping raise cancer consciouness
It's genetic," said the allopath. "It's a vaata dosha," declared the ayurvedacharya. "Imbalance in body salts," pronounced the homeopath. "It's psychosomatic," opined other healers. "It's karma," said spiritualists.
And thus I was stuck with the immune-deficiency disorder called rheumatoid arthritis last May – a severely crippling condition that can wreak pain on all the joints in the body. It crept upon me unawares as a swelling in the ankle, and spread to the entire body until every joint was affected with inflammation – including the jawbone, I was appalled to discover! My motor functions failed to execute even simple jobs, like unscrewing the toothpaste cap, leaving me dependent on others to go about basic chores. I had no time to think or lament though; tackling one moment at a time consumed all my attention and energy. Life slowed down drastically, forcing me to practice awareness. I had to avoid jerky and unconscious movements to avoid pain. Nothing like illness to knock one back from unconscious complacency!
I lay awake night after night, defenses completely down, listening to my aching bones tell an exaggerated story… of every negative thought, word and action that I had ever indulged in during my lifetime. Ashamed, I mentally begged forgiveness from those I had wronged and forgave all those who had wronged me…A cathartic, elevating experience.
As my husband massaged my joints with medicated oil one morning, I said tearfully, "I'm so sorry to put you through this. How can I ever repay this debt?" God forbid that he should fall sick for that sake… but what he said jerked me out of my sense of helplessness: "I'm not serving you, I'm serving myself. What debt are you talking about?"
It's so simple really. There is no 'other'… just one Universal Spirit in different manifestations. If the server and the served are one, whom to thank, from whom to expect gratitude? What to covet, what to reject? It's just me, playing various roles in my own life simultaneously! I experience health in one body, ill-health in another. Every experience of each being on earth is but mine! Now, my task is cut out for me for the rest of my life – if I can treat each and every being as an extension of myself, the purpose of my illness, and life, would be served. If I retain a separate identity I'll have to come back repeatedly to experience whatever I covet and reject in each lifetime.
I have become almost independent now, thanks to a combination of ayurveda, allopathy, love and compassion; but I still walk with a limp. That's ok, for I'm walking perfectly well through other people around me.
Three other souls who have undertaken this healing journey of self-discovery talk about their illnesses, their transformation and contribution to society as a consequence.
A cause beyond oneself
When this bubbly, successful, 46-year-old event manager from Mumbai was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2000, it was the words of her reiki master that became her mantra through her illness, "Devieka, it is going to be a time of great change, the unnecessary will now disappear from your life. Just don't be afraid." "Breasts are very special to a woman, I was quite proud of mine. The thought of one of them being operated upon was quite unsettling," says Devieka Bhojwani. "But then what were they, anyway? Just over-romanticised fat! They had served me well, I had nursed both my children for over a year. If I had to lose one of them, I was not going to get hysterical about it." As it happened, she had to go through a lumpectomy and not mastectomy, and only chunks of the affected parts were removed. The test results, however, showed malignancy, leaving her thinking about death. "I realised that I wasn't afraid of dying, a wondrous revelation! I had lived a full, joyous life, had loved and been loved. I was ready for any eventuality, though I knew I wasn't going to go anywhere, there was so much more I still had to do."
Devieka was advised two months of radiation therapy for destroying any remaining malignant cells. Through her guide, Dr Deepak Chopra, Devieka knew that intelligence is not only in the brain but in every part of the body. "Through meditation and visualisation work on my body, I imagined all the toxins getting out of my system. I got into a dialogue with my breast. Today, that breast has come back to being absolutely normal. It proves that the body responds if you approach it the right way."
Devieka was inspired by her radiologist, the then Director of Tata Memorial Hospital, to contribute towards raising awareness among women about cancer. It's ten years since Devieka has set up the Women's Cancer Initiative in partnership with the hospital, which has rendered emotional and financial help to women in their hour of need. The foundation has partnered with the Lavasa Women's Drive, Pinkathon, Elle magazine and fashion events around the country, to emphasise the importance of early detection and to raise funds for the Foundation. Today, it is funding the treatment of nearly 500 women annually.
Devieka took her cancer as a blessing, as it gave her a chance to re-evaluate and take charge of her life, to reach out and help others. She wonders, "Could my cancer have been a manifestation of hanging on to some pain or anger? I don't know but I have realised that I had to let go of all the negativity. I feel blessed for having had the opportunity to find my strength through adversity, and find a cause beyond myself! My life today is so much richer for it!" concludes Devieka.
Meditation for health
As he entered his 20s, Dilip took to smoking heavily and was addicted to 30-40 cigarettes a day. His health was naturally affected. He was under medication for chronic indigestion. Finally one day, his deep-seated anger which turned to melancholia, got the better of him, and Dilip consumed 40 sleeping pills in a bid to end it all. "Luckily, nothing happened, and I was treated immediately by my doc," he says. "What hurt, though, is that my parents never understood what I was going through. The doctor informed my father but he never bothered."
Encouraged by his doctor, Dilip started behavior therapy at NIMHANS, the premier mental health institution in Bangalore. But it was only after he was introduced to meditation that he made the shift. "It was a stroke of luck meeting Mr Ravi, an Osho sanyasin, through a friend. He counselled me, taught me meditation and gave me books to read. The book, From Medication to Meditation, by Osho helped me a lot."
It has taken Dilip almost three years to get out of depression and smoking addiction… Now 80 per cent cured, he has started his own music school where he teaches the keyboard, drums and guitar. But meditation is a very important part of Dilip's routine. "I do the Osho 'nadabrahma' meditation for an hour daily. It's a wonderful way to spend time with myself and my body. Meditation removes negativity and energises me. The breathing takes me over completely. I also like to travel, spend time with nature, and to just sit and breathe!" he says.
Grateful to the new lease of life he got from meditation, Dilip wished to share the same with other troubled souls. "A couple of days ago, I saw a young man suddenly jump from nowhere onto the track as a train was approaching," he said sadly. "How frustrated he must have been to have taken this extreme step! I strongly feel that everybody needs to meditate. That's why I let out my music studio free of cost on Sundays and holidays for meditation workshops to be held. I also encourage my students to attend these workshops. I feel happy when I see them benefiting from it," says this 23-year-old, like a true meditator!
A divine bond
That's what probably brought a healer to his doorstep one evening.
As he was limping back home from a massage session, a stranger stopped to enquire about his condition. She said she was on her way to the dargah, and would pray for him. Ravi forgot all about it before he reached home, but was amazed when the lady knocked on his door an hour later, offering him a rose flower as 'prasad' from the dargah. This continued for a quite a while – a Mohammaden stranger praying for him of her own accord, and visiting him each day with the 'prasad'… until Ravi was compelled to invite her in and offer her a cup of coffee on one occasion. As she came in, her eyes alighted on the photograph of Osho and she was visibly excited. "I have read one of his articles, and found the answer to most of my questions in it!" she exclaimed, asking him to tell her more about him.
And so Ravi introduced her to Osho's teachings and meditation techniques, while she learnt reiki and hypnosis just so as to heal Ravi – indeed a symbiotic relationship! Even as he taught her, Ravi himself discovered more and more of his guru –and chanced upon the book, From Medication to Meditation which totally changed his perspective of health. "All the while the answer was with my guru, but I was destined to meet this lady to discover it through her," says Ravi, while she firmly believes that his illness was just a reason for her to be introduced to Osho!
Ravi's experience reiterates the fact that all relationships are give and take – we are all continuously exchanging energies. Ravi's life has now almost come back to normal but his passion for meditation and healing has increased manifold. He had already resigned from his government job to take up the job of setting up of Osho ashrams in Mysore and Bangalore; now he has opened his doors to souls who need counselling and help in dealing with mental and physical troubles as a seva to his guru. Through him many souls have healed, been inspired and transformed. Asked why, even as meditators, we tend to invite such illnesses, Ravi says, "Maybe we would have strongly wished for some experience, which cannot but come with the baggage of illness. Practising choiceless awareness, an old mantra reiterated by Osho, is the only answer to avoid such unnecessary troubles."

If I get a hybrid, what boost can I run with standard pistons?

The works appear ethereal and physical manifestations of a reality that exceeds our own worldly expectations.

Standard may have provided ammunition for critics by remaining heavily invested in shares - unlike many rivals. Some 75% of its £35bn with-profit fund is still in the stock market. It is therefore more vulnerable to further setbacks than rivals that have switched large chunks of assets into bonds.
The fund's free asset ratio, a measure of the cushion of assets over and above obligations to policyholders, was 5% at the time of its most recent return to regulators in November. It will have grown even slimmer following the latest share falls.
The Scots giant recently raised £1bn through a bond issue, though it denied that it had done so in order to shore up its capital. It said: 'We certainly are solvent. We are not selling shares at the moment and we are happy with our equity holding.'
Rival Friends Provident denied reports of an £800m bond issue to boost its finances. Its latest free asset ratio was around 7.7%, though that includes around £600m of financial engineering and will also have fallen in recent weeks.
Fears that life assurers may have been liquidating share holdings to meet solvency requirements helped push shares on their precipitous downward spiral on Monday. Insurance shares also suffered because of worries over the impact of Ron Sandler's report into savings. Leading players, including the Prudential and Aviva, said they were not offloading shares.
The Financial Services Authority recently relaxed 'resilience' tests that might have forced insurers to sell more heavily.

At least someone is considering real solutions to mass school shooting and protecting the children of the state of Tennessee…. hopefully, other states will follow…
Tennessee has emerged this week as a center of the "the answer is more guns in schools" sentiment following the Newtown, Conn. elementary school shooting. State Sen. Frank Niceley (R) told TPM on Tuesday he believes it's time for that to change. He plans to introduce legislation in the next session, which begins Jan. 8, that will require all schools to have an armed staff member of some kind. The current language of the bill — which is in its early form — would allow for either a so-called "resource officer" (essentially an armed police officer, the kind which most Tennessee high schools have already) or an armed member of the faculty or staff in every school in the state.
You can read the full article here.
Please contact Governor Bill Haslam and our Tennessee state Elected Officials (even if you're not a resident) to express your full support for arming teachers and protecting our children… :yes:

Ramon Magsaysay Award
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (February 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
|Ramon Magsaysay Award
|Awarded for
|Outstanding contributions in Government Service, Public Service, Community Leadership, Journalism, Literature and Creative Communication Arts, Peace and International Understanding and Emergent Leadership
|Presented by
|Ramon Magsaysay Award Foundation
|First awarded
The Shekhar soni' is an annual award established to perpetuate former Philippine President Ramon Magsaysay's example of integrity in governance, courageous service to the people, and pragmatic idealism within a democratic society.[1][2] The prize was established in April 1957 by the trustees of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund based in New York City with the concurrence of the Philippine government.
It is named after Ramon Magsaysay, the seventh President of the Philippines. The Ramon Magsaysay Award Foundation gives the prize to Asian individuals achieving excellence in their respective fields. The awards were given in six categories, five of which were discontinued in 2009:
- Government Service (1958–2008)
- Public Service (1958–2008)
- Community Leadership (1958–2008)
- Journalism, Literature, and Creative Communication Arts (1958–2008)
- Peace and International Understanding (1958–2008)
- Emergent Leadership (2001– )
- Uncategorized (2009– )
In May 1957, seven prominent Filipinos were named to the founding board of trustees of the Ramon Magsaysay Award Foundation, the non-profit corporation tasked with implementing the awards program.
The RMAF recognizes and honors individuals and organizations in Asia regardless of race, creed, sex, or nationality, who have achieved distinction in their respective fields and have helped others generously without anticipating public recognition. The awards have traditionally been given in five categories: government service; public service; community leadership; journalism, literature, and creative communication arts; and peace and international understanding.
The winners of the Ramon Magsaysay Awards came from different parts of Asia although there are some instances were the winners came from countries outside Asia who had served, worked or accomplished something in different Asian countries. As of 2016, recipients have come from twenty-two Asian countries.
The 2016 awardees were Vientiane Rescue (Laos), Conchita Carpio-Morales (Philippines), Dompet Dhuafa (Indonesia), Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers (Japan), T. M. Krishna (India) and Bezwada Wilson (India).[3]

The Cancer Survivorship Plan is a rather new concept. It is currently being embraced and executed only at select cancer treatment centers. However, as it becomes more widely understood this planning should become readily available. It is empowering to know about creating a plan to help guide you when treatment is over.January 30, 2013 - 3:58pm
A recent report by the Center for Disease Control, announced the great news that overall trends show lives lost to cancer are decreasing. This is great news. However, the corollary to this is that more people are living longer as survivors…often dealing with significant challenges as a result of their cancer or treatments.
Finally, there is an increasing awareness that while the end of treatment is a milestone, it is not the finish line and, in many ways, it is just the beginning of not only recovery from cancer but recovery of your life.
Read this blog piece that describes the creation of a Cancer Survivorship Care Plan, and the important details that should be considered and included in the plan.
