Jin'do the Hexxer and Moam tuning discussion
Posted 28 July 2006 - 09:49 AM
Now, I know most of you probably aren't too terribly interested in the 20-man raid dungeons, but I figured I'd put this out there for some discussion. I recently (5 months back) started my own guild from scratch, so this is something I've had a chance to experience myself. Keep in mind while reading the following commentary that this is coming from a guild who did not back-track to the 20mans as they were released (from MC or BWL respectively), this is from a guild who worked its way up from scratch, greens and blues. It's also worth knowing when reading this that the guys we ended up with in the guild are a very good crew, great players, and we have had a very high success rate, with little "learning" time. We've conquered ZG, RAQ, Ony, and are on Ragnaros currently. That being said,
Does anyone else feel like these two particular encounters are a tad out of place, difficulty-wise? Let me explain:
Jin'do the Hexxer
This guy is just flat out harder than Hakkar, the boss of Zul'Gurub. Given the level of dps your raid is expected to have after farming some of the other bosses in the zone (I'd expect Jindo to be a target pre-dating Hakkar), he's a bit out of whack. Even if you're doing everything perfectly, stacking -heal debuffs on Jindo, removing totems asap, and staying pretty well ahead of shades, he still requires a decent amount of dps to overcome before your (pre-mc) healers run dry. And if you're a caster heavy raid (and Jin'do is a caster-loot oriented boss), its even tougher, as you run into mana issues. Rogues/Warriors end up being your best bet by far. Basically we didnt drop this guy til we had farmed Hakkar 4-5 times. Easily the highest learning curve in the zone. Suggested solution? I'd say raising the cooldowns on all of his abilities by just a bit would tune it pretty nicely. A couple fewer totems to deal with, a couple fewer skeletons to AE down, and a couple fewer shades to kill, resulting in a bit more time dpsing Jin'do before your healers are dry.
This guy's a bit of a different story than Jin'do. Basically, you have to stack classes. And I hate hate hate stacking classes. Compared to the rest of RAQ, where you don't need to stack classes anywhere, its really frustrating to have a very balanced raid class-wise, clear everything but Moam with no problem, and then have to make the decision of either attempting the fight with difficulty turned to hardcore, or subbing in an extra 1-2 warlocks to just bring the fight back down to RAQ's average difficulty. Let me explain more:
With 3 warlocks (and 2-3 priests, and a hunter). You have sufficient mana drain to prevent the explosion, and keep in mind your dps isnt stellar yet, its just 20man gear and maybe some MC pieces here and there. You have your three warlocks to banish the three adds and just dps Moam down in stoneform. Even so, heading into add-spawn and stoneform, your raid is mana drained pretty bad (ending up with almost required consumable use per-kill, something rare in a 20man), so heals are fairly scarce. In come three big bad elementals, and the crux of the problem. These three elementals are almost a raid encounter of themselves (would be, if they had more hp). They are not snarable, fairly certain they are not stunnable, they have a harsh 1k arcane AE, and to top it all off, they can counterspell. So even with the 3 warlocks, you're going to take some hefty AE damage on average, due to at least 1 badly timed counterspell on your warlocks, or simply if they launch an AE before the 1.5 banish cast time. All in all, doable, but still very challenging (With stacked classes!)
With 1-2 warlocks (and 2-3 priests, and a hunter). Here's my issue. With 2 warlocks, you end up with 1 free elemental to be tanked, launching AEs and counterspells. With 1 warlock (we've never even bothered trying this), you have 2 free elementals to be tanked, launching AEs and counterspells. And again, this is on top of your already near-dry casters. At the appropriate gear levels, you have to have everything go extremely well, perfect positioning, no bad luck on counterspells and such to even have a chance with 2 warlocks. With 1 warlock I dont even see this encounter happening. These adds are just way too harsh.
Suggested solution? Simply toning down the elementals would go a long way to making this encounter balanced for RAQ's overall difficulty level. Options are adding vulnerability to snare/stun (again I dont remember stun's status, but I am sure they are not snarable), reducing availability or damage of the AE, and removing the counterspell. Any or all of this would help a lot. I realize they already dont have much HP, but the AE can rip your raid to shreds considering your available dps will mostly be melee, since the drain will have taken a toll on casters. Basically anything that removes the warlock-stacking requirement would be a huge plus.
Anyway, overall I am very happy with these two instances. Having been through the end-game a couple of times in other guilds, but never having been a part of the "guild building" phase from ground up, I am immensely enjoying the availability of 20man raid dungeons to help gear us up. Not to mention its just fun as hell conquering a zone with your guild (quite a bit more fun if you're doing it while its still a challenge, i.e. pre-MC/BWL). I just feel these two encounters are a bit out of place. A bit of tuning would go a long way towards making these zones masterpieces. Thoughts?
Posted 28 July 2006 - 09:55 AM
If they were progression bosses in the zone, then I would agree - but as it stands, they are fit for purpose I think. Really hard optional challenges you can do when you finish the zone for a bit of extra loot.
(BTW, 3 warlocks isn't stacking a raid for a 20 player force. You woudl expect 6 classes to have 3 members present, and 2 classes to have 2).
Posted 28 July 2006 - 10:04 AM
They prime you for the massive usage of consumables that become much more common in the 40-man raids.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 10:06 AM
And I can see your point about the optional aspect of these bosses, but Jin'do's loot is not any better for casters than Bloodlord's is for melees. Remember where my guild was coming from. Bloodlord's melee weapons were fantastic for us, huge upgrades. Same with Jindo's caster stuff.
As for Moam, while I can accept the fact that three of the bosses are in fact "optional" by definition, the zone is very empty without the inclusion of them in a clear. Once again, remember why a new guild is there. They're wanting to clear the entire zone for loot volume, not quality farming (Ossirian) like an established 40man guild is.
While Blizzard may have stated that they are indeed optional and tuned correctly, I was more after the opinions of people themselves, especially from the perspective of a starter guild.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 10:09 AM
And it could be argued that bringing 3 warlocks is stacking the raid. Considering that a lot of 40 man raids these days consider anything above 2 a waste.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 10:19 AM
Exactly.And it could be argued that bringing 3 warlocks is stacking the raid. Considering that a lot of 40 man raids these days consider anything above 2 a waste.
In 20 people raid, 2-3 representatives per class mean balanced setup, just like in 40 ppl raid 5 per class is. Thus it's can be hardly said that having 2 warlocks (the lowest number that can be considered balanced), 2 priests and 1 hunter is stacking. Even 3 are far from stacking comparable with taking 7-8 mages for BWL/AQ - it's basically equivalent of 5 warlocks.
Stacking would happen if having 4th or 5th warlock gave you something extra in this fight, which is obviously not the case - warlock DPS when mana draining is laughable and having more then 3 warlocks (and arguably, more then 2 as well) actually makes Moam harder.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 10:33 AM
How many warlocks does it take in a 20-man raid to experience the full benefit of the warlock class's utility? If the answer is < 3, then having three is stacking. After all, anything a warlock would do beyond utility is DPS, and there are classes I would much rather have doing DPS than a warlock (at least, with the gear level in a pre-MC/BWL guild). If you need no more than one warlock to experience the full benefit of the warlock class's utility in a 20-man raid, well, you get the idea.
Basically, if one warlock can provide all that I need in a 20-man, anything more is stacking.
"Agree with Maledict, it has been stated by Blizzard that these encounters are optional, hence they are harder then the progression bosses in their respective zones. A bit of risk/reward scenario here. You can let them rot, and still consider the raid a success, if you feel you don't want to risk failure." - I don't know that I agree with this. I think we can all agree, however, that just because Blizzard cries 'Balanced!!' doesn't mean that there is balance. Regarding difficulty due to optional status, Buru is MUCH easier than Moam and can be done with a ridiculous variety of raid setups. Mandokir is worlds easier than Jin'do, so once again I have to take issue with this whole 'optional boss' business.
So yeah, the encounters could use a bit of tweaking.

This fight is very easy with 3 warlocks, but perfectly doable with 2 as well. And 2 warlocks is just normal, minimal number of those expected in 20 people raid. Not having 2 warlocks means stacking other classes, not the other way around.
As for balancing this fight, if it's really needed.... I guess adds could be not only banishable, but also fearable (just like elementals in DM West). That would give you 2 classes that can control them - although their HP/damage would need readjusting to cope with 1 warlock being able to crowd control 2 at the same time and 1 priest being able to AoE fear them in right situation.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 11:54 AM
It is still very challenging with 3 warlocks, at the appropriate gearing up stage.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 12:11 PM
We have killed her on the second try (first one was disaster on many levels - among other things, priests were healing not mana burning). DPS was really subpar because of gear and before the spawn Moam was still around 40%. But good banish and DPS coordination after spawn resulted in burning first add fast, then boss, then last 2 banished adds.
There are many tricks that can be used by not that well geared groups like starting with druids in hybrid gear and cat form to add to DPS and save mana for healing when shammies/palas run out of mana. Good coordination between warlocks can result in almost instant banishes and limited AoE damage.
But like I said, if this fight requires balancing it should not be done in making mana draining less intensive or lowering number of adds, but by giving raiders more crowd control means. Fear fits this fight - 1 warlock will be able to control 2 adds, 2 warlocks - all of them. And you can always use priests instead, if warlocks are not available.
Is this fight class dependant? Yes, of course. But there are many such fights in game - every raid dungeon got at least one.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 12:18 PM
Moam exhibits a distinct problem with lowering the number of raiders. Devs have to be careful not to require anything out of the ordinary or else people will have to stack their groups. I led our guild AQ20 runs for a while, and I played around with group setups etc. I'd go from 3 hour clears to 1 and a half clears by changing a few people around for a few different people. Even for a group of hard-hitting niggers, it would be quite dangerous to attempt moam without enough mana burners to keep him drained. We had enough DPS to dirtnap him without his sons coming, but due to poor group setup, he would explode on some parts. Hell I think we've had him explode twice before and still won.
Anyway, I hope the 10 mans that will be 'hard' (I call bullshit on that already) in TBC are tuned to NOT require two warriors, or two of any class.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 01:58 PM
I hope Blizz learns from Moam and doesn't do something like that again (or at least do it for a more popular class).
I am sure that having Shaman/Pallys will be make some TBC encounters easier (with their new level 70 spells), but that should be understood. I just hope this requirement will only be in 20 mans or higher.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 02:04 PM

I get enjoyment out of constructing buildings out of my fries and demolishing them with my chicken nugget army as I make monster noises. But you people. You people are FREAKS.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 02:19 PM
The best way to achieve this is have a bear tank and have everyone stand in the exact same spot. There is no reason to spread out on this encounter at all.
Healing totems are much worse than mind control totems. Kill them immediately. The totems are backstabbable rogues can destroy them. Since a bear is tanking make sure that the dps warriors remember to sunder.
If everyone is standing together you will find the shades 'MUCH' less of an issue. If you can only kill 1-2 shades because they are spread all over the place then they will pile up.
I actually really like the jindoo fight because even a very well geared group can lose (and badly at that) if they do not play it correctly.
Moam I agree for a 20 man guild is a lot harder than he needs to be. For geared out 40 man guilds he dies prior to the summon even with 3-4 alts in the raid which makes him overly simple.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 02:25 PM
We've been farming Jin'do way, way before we even stepped foot into MC. Very much doable for a guild in DM / ZG blues and a few random epics.
Posted 28 July 2006 - 02:27 PM
Lots of 22 man raids on your server then are there?(BTW, 3 warlocks isn't stacking a raid for a 20 player force. You woudl expect 6 classes to have 3 members present, and 2 classes to have 2).
(6*3 + (2*2) ) = 22
<Zyla> If there's gonna be a dick in the room besides my own, i'd rather it have to be my brother's. You know that kinda sounds bad all typed out like that,
Posted 28 July 2006 - 02:30 PM
The idea with down-rank spells is to have lots of healers casting slow, efficient spells that hit (non-crit) for about 1k health on the tank. (Heal Rank 2 is a popular one for Priests.) If your healers aren't wearing some modest amount of +healing gear, then they won't get any more efficiency out of these lower-rank spells. Make them do some basic arithmetic and figure out the hpm numbers for themselves. Go farm more +healing gear if they don't have enough.
With a rotation, you have some healers active while others rest and regen. One thing that works pretty well on Jin'do is to have pairs of healers tag-team: one chain heals, the other rests and regens mana. If the active healer drops below 50% mana, gets ported to the skelly pit, or has to kill shades, then he hits a macro to tell his buddy to come in for him. Two healers can swap back and forth this way on the fight for a surprisingly long time.
For Jin'do, only the MT should really be taking signifigant amounts of damage. Other folks should be able to bandage and help the healers out. Do not allow your dps to soak up lots of spot healing.

Photographer: Tampa Theater
Copyright 2013 Scripps Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
Posted: 10/15/2013
TAMPA - The Tampa Theatre is celebrating its birthday on Wednesday with the unveiling of a new logo.
Theater officials say the new logo is part of a rebranding effort to showcase both the past and future of the 87-year-old Theatre.
"Tampa Theatre is a cultural icon in the community," said Jill Witecki, Tampa Theatre Director of Marketing and Community Relations. "With this rebrand, we wanted to showcase the Theatre's historical importance, while also creating a brand identity that would welcome returning and new audiences for years to come."
Tampa-based branding and digital marketing agency, Sparxoo, who led the rebranding effort, wanted to make sure the new logo well-represented the Theatre.
"We fused the blade sign and bright welcome spotlights in an urban setting to capture the essence of the Tampa Theatre as a true icon in downtown Tampa," said David Capece, Sparxoo CEO. "It was an honor and privilege to work with one of the world's most spectacular theatres."
Tampa Theatre officials say the rebranding effort is not finished.
Right now Sparxoo is helping to re-launch the Theatre's website to create a more user-friendly experience. The redesigned website should go live before the end of this year.

Bosra strikes back for Cecil
This was not largely a victory for Albion however. The American-bred winner was ridden by an Irishman, Pat Eddery, and is owned by a Syrian, Wafic Said.
Bosra Sham, though, is trained by our very own Henry Cecil, and there was some piquancy in the fact that he should peel at the fingers of the Dubai domination following his split with Sheikh Mohammed. The Sunday crowd seemed to acknowledge this and Cecil was given a sweeping reception by the assembly on his return. It affected him deeply. He choked: "It's very emotional and it makes you want to cry." Which he almost did.
Cecil must have been close to tears several times this week. Bosra Sham has moved with the alacrity of a Tommy returning from a bog-filled trench for much of the final build-up, the victim of particularly brittle feet. "She has had a horrible time with people re-doing her feet," the trainer said. "But we never throw in the towel, we keep going. She hobbled out on Friday morning and she hasn't been able to do anything since, so it's a pretty good performance considering."
Such is Bosra Sham's celebrity there was even a camera to record her negotiating the ramp from her horsebox. Disembarkation is only usually a spectator sport when royal legs emerge from a limousine. The filly was led around the grass in the paddock and taken down steadily, but the real question would be asked in the race proper.
From a point of 2-5 earlier in the week, Bosra Sham had eased to 10-11 by the off, odds which appeared by no means generous as Eddery was one of the first to get sweated up in the race. The filly, we now know, has the attitude to accompany her undoubted brilliance and she responded to activity from the saddle. Eddery's route did not please the stewards (he was later given a two-day suspension for careless riding, drifting in front of the field on to the rails), but he was struggling to nurse his partner home. "Normally she travels a lot better than that but in the last furlong and a half she was shortening on both front legs," he said. "You haven't seen her at her best today. "
This belief is also held by Cecil. "Sir Noel Murless always said you had to be 110 per cent to win Classics, but she's done it on probably 90 per cent," he said. "When Pat asked her the question she felt it and she looked after herself in the final furlong. That's not surprising with her bruises and soreness, but she's a real professional and very genuine. I hope next time she runs we have a nice clear run and we can see her even better."
That may be in the Irish 1,000 Guineas or, more likely, Bosra Sham will be allowed protracted recovery time and pointed at Royal Ascot's Coronation Stakes. There is no immediate plan to try her at beyond a mile.
The Guineas winner will therefore be playing no part in the Oaks, which looks as though it will be retained by Godolphin if Pricket's performance in the Pretty Polly Stakes is anything to go by. The five-length winner is down to 6-4 for Epsom.
The only other filly in single figures is Bint Salsabil, which is rather surprising considering Willie Carson's comments after she finished seventh yesterday. "She didn't stay," he said.
n Frankie Dettori will be sidelined for a total of 12 days this month after he picked up a two-day ban at Newmarket yesterday for careless riding on Kammtarra in the closing race after the eight-day ban for overuse of the whip on Mark Of Esteem.

Love the ring
By SHARON
from EDMONTON
This ring is very comfortable and something I have been looking for. I'm glad that TSC is carrying rose gold and bronze items now.
( 2 of 2 customers found this review helpful)
By JayB
from Montreal, Quebec
This beautiful oval shaped Spinel ring is surrounded by one row of beaded sterling silver and two rows of beaded copper. On the sides, there is some cut work, which adds to the beauty of this ring. The band is domed and narrows at the back and is so comfortable to wear.It is not a bold in your face ring, but it is made to perfection and looks so elegant on. There isn't a flaw in this ring, which is typical of Hilary Joy's jewellery. Oh yes, there is the HR initials inside the ring.I love the quiet elegance plus the chic and unique styling of this ring.P.S. I ordered one size larger and wear it on my ring fingrer and you would probably need two sizes larger to wear on your middle finger.
Smooth, like butter!!!
By Jill
from Toronto, Ontario
This ring is so smooth & comfortable, I now would like a 'cigar band' style in silver & copper with small turquoise stones accross the top, in the hope that it will help with rheumatism in my hands. Can you oblige Hilary??? thankyou, J.C.

Forever Archive - video portraits of West Dorset people
Forever Archive, portraits of Dorset
AN archive and new film project, Forever Archive, from the Zeals-based Windrose Rural Media Trust gets its premiere at Bridport Arts Centre next Tuesday, 20th November. The team has shot new video portraits of present day West Dorset people, their lives and what they can show us about our area, and next week's event will combine these with archive films. "We are all part of history," says Trevor Bailey of Windrose Rural Media Trust, a registered charity. "For some 28 years we have been saving old films of life in Dorset. It is vitally important to preserve and copy old films so that they can be seen again. But it is just as important to go on filming new records of life today and of the people who give richness to that life. Our lives are just as interesting as those of our forebears."
James Harrison, who worked with Trevor to shoot the new video portraits, says they were helped by West Dorset journalist Margery Hooking and made one of the video portraits about her. Other people featured include Alistair Chisholm, tourist guide; Darren Batten, brewer; Rupert Best (pictured), cider apple grower, and Emily Fearn of the New Hardy Players.

1. The interview above with Milton Friedman was recorded shortly before he died in November 2006 at the age of 93, and here's what he had to say about drug prohibition (starting around 0:52):
I have long been opposed to the prohibition of drugs…whether it's marijuana or other drugs. The major basis for my opposition is not that prohibition has caused more harm than good, it's been primarily a moral opposition. We have free speech and free assembly. But I think the same thing goes with respect to what I put in my body. I do not think the state has any more right to tell me what to put in my mouth than it has to tell me what can come out of my mouth. Those two are essentially the same thing, and they are both essential elements of freedom.
HT: Don Boudreaux ("Keep Your Laws Off of My Body")
2. Here's more from Don's post:
In the LA Times, former California GOP legislator Chris Norby rightly criticizes the hypocrisy of conservatives who, with one breath, decry the nanny state and then, with their next breath, endorse the so-called "war on drugs" (Letters, Sept. 11). As Mr. Norby says, "Those who support individual freedom should oppose locking up adults for nonviolent behavior, as incarceration only makes it far worse for them, their families and the taxpayers who must pay to imprison those who have only hurt themselves. The war on drugs should not be a war on people."
3. Radley Balko reports that a "Philadelphia Family Loses Home Over A Single Drug Charge", thanks to Pennsylvania's asset forfeiture laws that allow the state to seize private property based on a mere "preponderance of the evidence," and provide property owners with even fewer legal protections than accused criminals:
Sam Leino was ultimately convicted on a single charge of possessing prescription drugs with intent to distribute. For that, his wife and their three children are homeless. Welcome to the wonderful world of asset forfeiture.
Because the owner of a piece of property — be it land, cash, a car, or a home — needn't even be charged to lose the property under forfeiture laws, the Leinos had already lost their home by the time Sam Leino was convicted on that single charge. (Despite the conviction, the family maintains that he possessed the drugs for personal use after an automobile accident.) In fact, the government can actually freeze your assets before any proceedings begin, making it difficult to hire legal representation for either your criminal trial, or to go to court to reclaim your property. In this case, the Philadelphia DA's office actually evicted Sandra Leino and her children from their home, rendering them homeless until a relative took them in.
The office of Philadelphia District Attorney R. Seth Williams eventually withdrew the claim on the Leino home, but only after the family had fallen behind on their mortgage payments and the bank foreclosed, meaning that the home was no longer theirs for the government to take from them.
HT: Warren Smith

Physical Therapy Associate's Degree Programs
Career Options
- Physical Therapist Assistant or Aide
Expected Salary
Job Growth
These projections are estimates based on data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics.
One of the most expanding fields in the medical industry is physical therapy. Assistants are constantly sought after to help the physical therapists which includes helping patients during their rehabilitation process. These PTAs (Physical Therapy Assistants) must aide people who have gone through minor through major trauma including people who have undergone accidents, burn patients, back pain, osteoarthritis, head and neck injuries, amputees, and people with more serious conditions such as Lou Gehrig's Disease.
PTAs must be trained to exercise these patients in a therapeutic way, giving therapeutic massage, evaluate and observe patients and maintain charts on the progress of individual patients. They must also be able to adjust or fit devices such as crutches or braces. Clerical and office duties are often needed, such as ordering supplies, completing forms and insurance applications and even answering phone calls from doctor's offices and the patients themselves.
In order to become a physical therapy assistant, you must at least earn an associate's degree in physical therapy assisting. There are many accredited physical therapy programs throughout the United States but the curriculum will vary greatly between programs. You will study the practice and theory of physical therapy but also have a rudimentary knowledge of medical science and general education. When you are in an accredited program, you must have a great deal of experience dealing hands-on while learning a clinical practicum.
If you truly want to have an advantage over other graduates, it is an excellent idea to volunteer as a physical therapist within certain facilities such as a geriatric facility. To succeed in your program, your overall knowledge of chemistry, biology, physiology, physics, first aid and social sciences will give you more recognition and set you apart from your colleagues.
An associate's degree in physical therapy assistance does not require all that a physical therapist must endure. At a later date, if you decide that you want to become a physical therapist after graduating as a PTA, you might want to pursue PTA-to-PT accredited curricula.
Of course, to practice as a PTA, you have to obtain an associate's degree from an accredited online PTA college. License prerequisites will vary within the fifty states besides earning your PTA degree. As you graduate, you might have to become certified in First Aid and CPR, for example and finish a minimum of practical work within a physical therapy organization.

Leroy Pullins
Leroy Pullins
Leroy Pullins is pretty much the definition of a novelty one-hit wonder -- a singer who patterned himself after Roger Miller, a move that resulted in one moderately big country hit, "I'm a Nut," in 1966, and a host of other, similar tunes in the next few years, but few other hits. Not much is known of Leroy Pullins' life and career -- all information comes from Colin Escott's liner notes for Bear Family's 2007 CD I'm a Nut, a collection that contains all existing Pullins sides and credits a 1984 obituary written by Valarie Honeycutt for the Lexington Herald Leader. Pullins was born Carl Leroy Pullins on May 12, 1940, in Berea, KY. He began pursuing a musical career in his teens, assembling a rock & roll band called the LeSabres when he was 19. Once the group fell apart, Pullins moved to Nashville, where he was signed to Kapp Records, a subsidiary of Decca, in 1966. He was signed with the idea that he would capitalize on Roger Miller's success, which he did quite successfully with his first single, "I'm a Nut," an original tune that went all the way to 18 on the country charts. A full album also arrived in 1966, with a second arriving the next year, but that album and its accompanying singles went nowhere. As success started to dry up, so did Pullins' writing, so he decided to retire from the music business, moving back to his hometown of Berea where he became a fireman. He stayed there until his death from a heart attack in May 1984 at the age of 44. A few months later, Bear Family issued an LP called I'm a Nut (this was not a deliberately posthumous release; it was planned before his death), and that was the only Pullins release in circulation for years until Bear Family issued a different compilation, also called I'm a Nut, in 2007. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi

AIMA publishes updated guide to sound practices for hedge fund valuation
Related fund data links
The Alternative Investment Management Association (AIMA), the global hedge fund industry association, has updated its Guide to Sound Practices for Hedge Fund Valuation.
The new edition of the guide takes account of recent regulatory reforms, including a summary of valuation requirements under the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD).
The guide also reflects changes in accounting standards since the previous edition was published in 2007, such as the introduction of new international guidance on and disclosures of fair value accounting.
In total, the guide contains 16 recommendations that reflect industry sound practices within the areas of governance; transparency; procedures, processes and systems; and sources, models and methodology. The guide also sets out the areas of hedge fund valuation that are now covered by regulation and those where discretion still applies.
The guide was produced by a committee of volunteers from the industry and was co-chaired by Declan Quilligan, managing director of Citco Fund Services (Ireland), and Olwyn Alexander, European hedge fund leader at PwC.
AIMA chief executive Andrew Baker (pictured) says: "New accounting standards, greater demands from investors for transparency and the post-crisis regulatory reforms are changing the way that managers, administrators and other valuation specialists manage and approach valuation. The new edition of our Guide to Sound Practices for Hedge Fund Valuation reflects these changes while also drawing a distinction between where valuation practices are now mandatory and where discretion applies."
Quilligan says: "As the hedge fund industry emerges from the financial crisis and with regulatory change impacting the industry more than ever, issues connected with valuation are more relevant today in 2013 than ever before.
"Since the publication of the last Guide to Sound Practices for Valuation in 2007, there has been a notable move away from self-administration of hedge funds to independent administration. This evolution suggests that sound practices promulgated within the guide such as independence and greater transparency that are increasingly espoused by institutional investors will continue to drive change. Investors and other stakeholders should feel more comfortable that the adoption of sound practices together with enhanced regulatory frameworks offers greater investor protection than before."
Alexander adds: "Ever since the first edition was published, this guide has proved to be a very useful tool for hedge fund managers, investors, regulators and the wider hedge fund community. Since the second version was released in spring 2007, there has been convergence in the world of accounting standards, but we have also experienced divergence in the regulatory sphere, and this new edition of the guide reflects those changes. In addition, the extreme illiquidity experienced during the financial crisis gave rise to some unique valuation challenges which are now addressed in the recommendations and ensuing guidance."

Watch live as Columbine and Lakewood play for Colorado's Class 5A high school football championship at 2:30 p.m.
When Columbine runs the ball: The Rebels clearly have the state's best 1-2 punch in brothers Bernard (a sophomore, 917 yards, 17 TDs) and Cameron McDondle (senior, 2,148 and 25 TDs). They're tough, fast and powerful. Columbine's line isn't full of stars but is sound, as usual.
When Columbine throws the ball: You're kidding, right? The Rebels have thrown it a grand total of 40 times, including twice by Cameron McDondle, one of those for a TD on a halfback-option toss. They pass on the pass; receivers are blockers.
When Lakewood runs the ball: Senior John Greer has emerged in the playoffs, burning Grand Junction for 206 yards and three TDs in the quarterfinals, then Pomona with 167 yards and three TDs, including the game-winner, in last week's semifinals. Up front, Lakewood is small yet effective.
When Lakewood passes the ball: Quarterback Dylan Nelson, also a threat to run, is a lefty who operates well on rollouts. The Tigers' most serious receiving threat is Cassius Simpson, a playmaker on the perimeter who can turn a short grab into a big-play catch-and-run.

Artist Alexander Melamid removes a deep-fried portrait of Sigmund Freud at the opening of his exhibit, 'Hell,' at (Art) Amalgamated. Natalie Keyssar for The Wall Street Journal
Most art galleries in Chelsea maintain a meticulous, crisp aesthetic, a cleanliness bordering on the sterile. But visitors entering (Art) Amalgamated on 10th Avenue last Thursday evening were greeted by a pungent odor. They were there for the opening reception of new dual shows, "Hell" and "Heaven," by the veteran visual artist Alexander Melamid, and the gallery space was suffused with the smell of freshly fried funnel cake, but with a trace of something else—like burning plastic.
Mr. Melamid, the 67-year-old Russian emigre, was present at the reception and smiling widely. He was dressed up for the occasion, but with a white apron over his clothes. He stood near a desk with wire baskets placed underneath. In each basket sat dozens of glossy photos of iconic 20th-century philosophers and artists: Karl Marx, Sigmund Freud, Pablo Picasso, Marcel Duchamp and Andy Warhol. At a gallery patron's request, Mr. Melamid used a pair of tongs to pull a famous black-and-white portrait of Picasso from the drawer. He dipped the picture into a tray of water, then moved it to another tray, dusting it in powdered sugar. Once thoroughly coated, Mr. Melamid plunged the photo of the iconic artist into a small fryer set atop the table.

"That was a good sizzle," Mr. Melamid joked as the great Spanish painter sunk into the hot oil, sounding more like a sassy short-order cook than an esteemed artist whose work has been shown at MoMA, the Metropolitan Museum, and the Guggenheim during over the course of his decades-long career, both solo and in conjunction with his longtime partner, Vitaly Komar. He cocked an ear to the fryer: "It's the music of Hell!"
"Hell" is the title of the show at (Art) Amalgamated, running through Feb. 23, with Mr. Melamid staging a exhibition-as-protest against the deification of such 20th century icons, borrowing the image-burning tactics of the world's political protests. (The gallery's front room features images of mobs burning photos of German chancellor Angela Merkel and Syrian president Bashar al-Assad, among others.) "They are all major figures from my past," he said. "Psychologically, I got rid of them a long time ago. But I want to demonstrate to the public that it's not worth thinking about them any longer. Picasso, Duchamp and Warhol still reign supreme in the art world and I think it's wrong. We need to get rid of them."
A gallery sign points the way to 'Heaven' from his other show, 'Hell.' Natalie Keyssar for The Wall Street Journal
For decades, beginning in the 1970s, Mr. Melamid worked with Mr. Komar as part of Russia's conceptual arts (or Sots Art) movement, a parallel of sorts to American pop art of the era, but with a undercurrent of commentary to their realistic work. Both artists emigrated to the U.S. in 1978 and their work flourished. There was, for example, the bronze bust of Joseph Stalin—installed in a phone booth in the Hague's red-light district. In 1998 they taught elephants in Thailand to paint abstract expressionistic canvases. The pair went their separate ways in 2004.
On his own, Mr. Melamid recently rendered realistic portraits of hip-hop moguls like 50 Cent and Russell Simmons in the style of the Old Masters. "I've been working on elite subjects for a long time," he said. "Art is worship itself. Art is a form of religion. It's searching for justification or a higher power to justify itself."
In keeping with the theme of higher powers, "Hell" is conjoined with Mr. Melamid's "Heaven," an exhibit, also through Feb. 23, situated three blocks east, on the 10th floor of his studio. On Thursday night, horse-drawn carriages squired patrons to "Heaven," where the artist has hung a series of canvases with raised letters spelling "God" spattered with 14-karat gold leaf.
"You cannot move between paradise and hellfire in a modern car," explained Mr. Melamid. "You need a more basic form of transportation."

By day, his studio houses another ongoing project, "Healing Shrine," wherein Mr. Melamid uses modern art to "heal" aches and pains. On one wall hangs the Hippocratic Oath, on the others the nine canvases that make up "Heaven." The centerpiece is a 7-foot self-portrait of the artist, done in whites and pale pastels, his bespectacled, beatific visage barely visible. Beneath it, three votive candles burn, the artist himself rendered as a holy icon.
On Thursday, still stationed at his fryer, Mr. Melamid said, "I think of the art world like Christianity. It's a belief, something which we cannot explain. The point is at this stage, the church became a humongous institution. And it's a corrupt system, moneywise and intellectually."
Gesturing and revealing fingers caked with sugar, he said, "We're trapped with our heroes. We need a change." Then he lowered his tongs into the fryer, removed a brown, crispy photo of Andy Warhol, and dropped it into a plastic clamshell. He considered his work: "Warhol is evil. Aesthetically, he's as bad as Hitler and Stalin."
Perhaps ironically, Warhol was also the biggest seller of the night. For $10, a 20th-century icon was bagged by a gallery attendant and turned into something resembling a Chinese food take-out order.

Encouraging our Priests
By Kathryn Marcellino
Catholic Online
When was the last time we told our pastor or parish priest that we appreciate all the hard work and service that he�s given the parish? Wouldn�t it be a nice gesture to remember our priests and religious for all they do for us and to take time to write a thank you note or some sort of verbal encouragement or even a gift to our priests?
We tend to take all our needs to the priest, but who do priests take their needs to? We as their congregation are like their family. Just like parents in a family, priests can sometimes be taken for granted, overworked and under-appreciated.
If we stop and take a moment to think about our priests, they are being bombarded on every side in a human way. Even though most priests are hardworking servants of God, they have lost some respect due to the child abuse scandals. Plus pastors and priests are overloaded with more work to do than ever with a shortage of priests. Just do a little math by dividing how many parishioners per priest in your parish to see how many people they have to serve to get an idea of the enormity of their job and with little support from most of the parish.
Some people have the idea that all priests have to do is to write a homily and say Mass on Sundays, but their job involves so much more than that and most take only one day off per week. They say daily Mass, Liturgy of the Hours, attend meetings, answer phone calls, hear confessions, counsel and instruct people, preside at weddings, funerals, baptisms, etc. etc.
Just one example of the many sacrifices priests make is that recently in my sister�s parish the pastor�s brother died. There was no one to cover for him because of the shortage of priests, so he stayed at the parish rather than taking the trip to go to his brother�s funeral. We don�t see all the sacrifices they make.
Parishioners have a tendency to complain when things aren�t going the way they think they should, and write letters to complain, but not too many take the time to thank or uplift their pastors and priests. Studies show that bishops, for example, say that most of the mail they get is negative, critical or complaining. They say the people who are satisfied rarely bother to write and some people who do can be hyper-critical.
Some Gallup polls have said that around 88 percent of Catholics approve of the job their priests are doing but it seems that approval isn�t expressed.
Perhaps it is time to give our priests some encouragement and voice some appreciation to them. We can honor them to make up for the contempt they are getting from the media and for the complaining angry letters they get from others. We can say something like, �I just wanted to thank you. I really appreciate what you are doing for me and the parish and all the hard work you put in. What would we do without you?�
Priests after all are human beings like everyone else. Whereas God is our main source of love and acceptance, God does build into us a need for human love and support as well.
Even Jesus, during his agony in the Garden of Gethsemane, asked that some of his apostles pray and keep watch with him and their response was that they fell asleep! Let�s not snooze when our priests need our support most. Now at this time of crisis in the church because of the scandals in the news instead of just being scandalized by the actions of a few, perhaps now is the time when our good and faithful priests really might need some encouragement from us.
So in that line of thinking why not take a moment to write a thank you card to your pastor or priest, especially a priest who might be overlooked or not appreciated that often.
Another idea is to volunteer to help at the parish or ask if there is something you can do to help make your parish a better place instead of wishing or asking that the priest would do more. If you see something that you feel the Church is lacking perhaps you can volunteer to organize or help get it done. It might even be that God is asking you to do something to help build up the Church if you see the need for it, as we are all part of the Church, not just the priest.
Also let�s remember to keep all our priests, nuns and religious in our prayers� even the ones who have fallen short in some way, as they are the ones who need prayers the most. And the next time we are tempted to criticize or complain, let�s think about all the things that the priest and sisters have done for the parish and offer our suggestions in a humble spirit of love and service.
As Christians we are to love and build up one another, so let�s remember to be thankful and to pray for our priests and religious who have given their lives to serve Jesus and us. As Archbishop John Vlazny said in the June 2006 Catholic Sentinel, �We priests are only human. The more welcome and supported we feel, the more effective we will be in carrying out our ministry.�

>>A guide to artists with famous namesakes
Where is the center of the Earth? According to artist Nick Cave, it lies somewhere between a night out at Taboo with Leigh Bowery and a Brazilian Carnaval parade. It can be found in Liberace's glittering stage getups and Yoruba ceremonial hunting dress. Other possible coordinates include Yinka Shonibare's Africanized rococo costumes, Cockney pearly suits, the hautest of haute couture, and the fun fur tribes of Black Rock City.
Thankfully, for us, Cave's crocheted, sequined, bedazzled, embroidered, dyed, and encrusted vision of the heart of the world can be found locally. Yerba Buena Center for the Arts' "Meet Me At the Center of the Earth" presents the largest exhibit to date of the Chicago artist's work, which straddles the realms of sculpture, high fashion, body art, and dance with a visual ferocity and level of workmanship that is alternately stunning and inspiring.
Cave's art practically dares you to play chicken with your thesaurus. One would have to borrow a page (or several) from the descriptive reveries of Thomas de Quincey or Ronald Firbank to fully convey the cluster fuck of beading, psychedelic hair furs, plastic tchotchkes, yarn, tin toys, buttons, second hand sweaters, and enough sequins to cover a thousand '80s cocktail dresses that he has quixotically and painstakingly pieced together.
The centerpieces of "Meet Me at the Center of the Earth" are undoubtedly Cave's Soundsuits wearable sculptures that take their name from the sounds created by their movement. They fill YBCA's largest gallery like some other-wordly pantheon of gods and monsters. Arranged in an X-shaped configuration with paths running down the center of each axis, the suits form a giant visual nod to the exhibit's title. X, of course, marks the spot, and hanging above the room's center is the Earth itself, swathed in several shades of inky sequins. On the adjacent walls hang two huge and possibly glitzier tondi the Italian Renaissance term Cave uses for these round hangings which serve as flattened counterparts to the globe.
The display lets you explore the Soundsuits from every angle. Designed to cover the entire body, the suits hide any individual traces of the wearer by creating a second skin, and then some. The suits with towering, festooned cage structures which bring to mind both Balinese funeral pyres and Simon Rodia's Watts Towers still have a vaguely human outline at their core, whereas the suits patterned in all sort of brilliantly colored fur-like human hair could very well be studies from an unrealized Jim Henson project. This lycanthropic aspect of the Soundsuits is explored most humorously in Cave's more recent pieces, which take the reverse tactic of fashioning knitwear pelts for taxidermy models of bears and beavers.
While much of Cave's work, to quote New York Times critic Roberta Smith, "fall[s] squarely under the heading of Must Be Seen to Be Believed," it also begs to be heard. It is unfortunate that YBCA wasn't able to more fully integrate the sounds of the suits into their display.
