SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - California lawmakers have adjourned for the long holiday weekend, but they will keep getting daily expense payments even while they're not in Sacramento.
Lawmakers adjusted their schedules to hold floor sessions on Friday and Tuesday to qualify for per diems. For most members, the payments add about $30,000 a year to the nation's highest legislative salaries.
Those who live outside the Sacramento area are paid $142 a day for expenses so long as the Legislature does not take break for more than three days.
Senate leader Darrell Steinberg says the schedule swap is justified because members' expenses, like renting a home in Sacramento, don't disappear when members leave town.
The Democrat from Sacramento says the payments won't further damage the Legislature's already poor showing in opinion polls.

Algebra II: Simplifying polynomials 17-22, simplifying polynomials and algebraic expressions
⇐ Use this menu to view and help create subtitles for this video in many different languages.
You'll probably want to hide YouTube's captions if using these subtitles.
- We're on problem 17.
- And it asks us which expression shows the complete
- factorization of 12x squared minus 147?
- Let's see, first of all, can we factor out?
- 147 is a strange looking number.
- Let's see if we can factor out something.
- It's definitely not divisible by 12, because
- 12 goes into 144.
- Is it divisible by 3?
- 1 plus 4 is 5, 5 plus 7 is 12, and 12 is divisible by 3.
- And I don't know if you've seen that before.
- You just add up the digits and if that is divisible by 3,
- then the number's divisible by 3.
- So 147 is the divisible by 3.
- Let's see what it is.
- Let's work it out.
- It's 4 times 3 is 12, 27, it's 49.
- So we can factor 3 out of this.
- So then it becomes 3 times-- what's 12 divided by 3-- 4x
- squared minus-- 147 divided by 3, which we just
- figured out, was 49.
- And now this, once again, looks just like a squared
- minus b squared, where a would be 2x and b would be 9.
- So now we can factor that more.
- And I'll just switch colors arbitrarily.
- That becomes 3 times a plus b, so that would be 2x plus 7
- times a minus b.
- 2x minus 7.
- And that is choice D.
- In choice D, they wrote the 2x minus 7 first, but it's the
- same difference.
- So it's choice D.
- Problem 18.
- Let me see if I can get problem 18 going.
- Problem 18.
- Well, maybe I should cut and paste it.
- Why not?
- So I copied it and then let me paste it here.
- That's the problem.
- I'll rewrite it because I don't if that's big enough for
- you to see.
- So it says x plus 3 over x plus 5 plus 6 over x squared
- plus 3x minus 10.
- So when you add fractions, whether you're doing it with
- algebraic fractions or regular fractions, you have to find a
- common denominator.
- And let's see, we have to find the least common multiple of
- the denominators here, but I have a suspicion that this x
- plus 5 goes into this.
- So let's see if I can factor this.
- What two numbers, when I multiply them, equal minus 10,
- and when I add them equal plus 3?
- Let's see.
- Well, 5 times what is minus 10?
- It's 5 times minus 2 and 5 plus minus 2 is 3, so that
- works. x minus 2.
- So this is actually our least common multiple.
- This expression right here.
- So let me write it that way.
- So that is equal to-- I'm just going to rewrite this as x
- plus 5 over x minus 2.
- Now, x plus 3 over x plus 5, if we were to multiply both of
- those times x minus 2 to get something in this form, this x
- plus 3 over x plus 5 is the same thing as x plus 3 times x
- minus 2 over x plus 5 times x minus 2, right?
- You could just cancel this out right here and
- you'd get back to that.
- And now we're adding that.
- We're adding this term to this term.
- 6 over this, well, this is the same thing as this, so that's
- just plus 6.
- And now we just get into simplification mode.
- So x times x is x squared.
- x times minus 2 is minus 2x.
- 3 times x is plus 3x.
- 3 times minus 2 is minus 6, so that's this term right here.
- Got us that.
- And then we have the plus 6.
- And then all of that is over this stuff.
- And I look at the choices and it seems like they have it in
- this form, so I'll just write it in that form.
- x squared plus 3x minus 10.
- And let's see, the minus 6 and the plus 6 cancels out, and
- we're left with minus 2x plus 3x.
- So that's x squared-- minus 2 plus 3-- plus x over x squared
- plus 3x minus 10.
- And that is choice A.
- Choice A.
- Next problem.
- I'm almost out of space.
- I'll draw a line here, just so you don't get distracted.
- What is the simplified form of, and they write 3a squared
- b to the third, c to the minus 2, all of that over--
- interesting-- a to the minus 1 b squared c, and all of that
- is to the third power.
- So let's get in simplification mode.
- So this bottom part, we can re-simplify as-- let's see,
- maybe I wrote too big.
- 3a squared, b to the third, c to the minus 2.
- All of that, it's a to the negative 1, b squared, c to
- the third power, that's each of these items
- to the third power.
- So a to the minus 1 to the third power.
- You can multiply the exponents.
- That becomes a to the minus 3.
- I just took the negative 1 times the 3.
- b squared to the third power.
- That's b to the 2 times 3.
- That's b to the sixth power.
- And then finally c.
- Well, that's just c to the first of the third power, so
- that's c to the third.
- And now we can just say, well, this is the same thing.
- Let me switch colors.
- This color's getting mundane.
- This is equal to 3 times a to the 2-- we're dividing by a to
- the negative third-- so it's 2 minus minus 3.
- Let me write that, just so you understand-- 2 minus minus 3
- power-- that's where I got the 2; that's where I got the
- minus 3, and I subtracted because I'm dividing-- times b
- to the 3 minus 6, times c to the minus 2 minus 3.
- Once again, if we were multiplying these two, I would
- add the exponents.
- But anyway, let's simplify this.
- This equals 3a, 2 minus minus, so that's plus, 3a to the
- fifth, b to the minus 3, c to the minus 5.
- And this is the same thing as 3a to the fifth.
- b to the minus 3 is the same thing as 1 over b to the
- third, so over b to the third.
- And this is the same thing as 1 over c to the fifth.
- And that is choice A.
- Choice A.
- Next problem.
- Next problem.
- Oh, we already finished that page.
- All right.
- Let me copy and paste what they wrote.
- Let me put it at the top of this right there and paste it.
- That's what they're asking and I'll write it.
- 20x to the minus fourth over 27y squared
- divided by this fraction.
- So first of all, when you divide by a fraction, that's
- the same thing as multiplying by the inverse, right?
- So let's do that.
- I want to get rid of this pesky-looking division sign.
- So let's rewrite this as 20x to the minus fourth over 27y
- squared times-- instead of dividing by this, let's
- multiply by the inverse.
- So what's the inverse?
- 15y to the minus 5 over 8x to the minus 3.
- I just flipped it.
- All right?
- So let's see what we can do here.
- It seems like a lot of these numbers have common factors.
- Let's see, if we divide 15 by 3 and 27 by 3, so
- this becomes 5.
- 27 divided by 3 becomes 9.
- And just so you can think, you can view this as one
- continuous denominator or one continuous fraction.
- 20x to the minus 4 times-- well, now it's 5y to the minus
- fifth divided by 9y squared.
- Because when you multiply fractions, you just multiply
- the numerator times the numerator divided by the
- denominator times the denominator.
- Anyway, let's just keep simplifying.
- If you divide this by 4, you get 5.
- If you divide this by 4, you get 2.
- Let's see, I don't want to do too many steps all at once.
- You get 5x to the minus fourth times 5y to the minus fifth,
- all of that over 9y squared times 2x to the minus 3.
- So let's see.
- Let's get all the numbers out.
- So that is equal to 5 times 5 is 25 over 9 times 2 is 18
- times x-- let's do the x-- x to the minus 4-- minus because
- we're dividing-- minus 3.
- Minus minus 3 times y to the minus 5 minus 2, because we're
- dividing by that one.
- And that is equal to 25/18.
- Let's see, a minus minus, so that becomes a plus.
- Minus 4 plus 3, x to the negative 1, and then minus 5
- minus 2, y to the minus 7.
- This is the same thing as 1 over x to the 1.
- This is the same thing is 1 over y to the 7.
- So this is equal to 25 over 18x, 1
- over x, y to the seventh.
- y to the seventh in the denominator is the same thing
- as y to the minus seventh in the numerator.
- Anyway, that is choice-- let's see, 25 over 18--
- that is choice D.
- Choice D.
- And I'm out of time.

Christophe Claret Dual Tow Watch In Black & White
Filed under: Timepieces / Watches
Christophe Claret's workshop has special machines no where else available. The watch case is made up of about 67 parts and is cut using their 17 axis cutting machine. The precision of a machine getting closer to the dexterity of human hands. Though no hands could be trusted to make such parts given the need for water resistance. While I haven't seen titanium out of Claret's shop, I imagine his technique will render it beautiful as a case material.
There is one major concern about the watch that Christophe Claret is addressing - the reliability of the rubber belts used to tell the time. It is true that rubber degrades over time with bending. As such, it is reasonable to infer that the belts of the Dual Tow watch would wear out over a short period of time. Christophe Claret has thus engaged in a series of tests to prove that the belts are hardy. Apparently they stress tested the belts to simulate over 60 years of usage and the belts survived nicely apparently. The full results of the testing haven't been announced yet. Price for the limited edition watch varies, but is roughly in the $400,000 - $500,000 range if my memory serves correct. Configure one here.

With the signing of Harden and getting Millwood's contract off there hands, it looks good for next season. Bryd declined arbitration so Lowell (if healthy) could be a good DH fill. They've got to do something with Chris Davis at third. He's garbage.

Cuban could be a Steinbrenner for the Rangers. He tried in basketball, but that quasi-cap is hurting him.
Wouldn't it be great to have nice NY/Texas rivalry? I think it would be great for baseball and as a local, I really think the market would support a $150M payroll (especially with that stadium) along with the rivalry against NY.
I'm a Yankees fan first, but I'm also a Ranger's fan. I'm DYING to see Cuban take the Ranger and start spending big bucks on the team.

The Heartbeat 2 cluster management software can provide the messaging and application layers for HA clusters. For the application layer, Pacemaker is increasingly taking over as the cluster resource manager from what was historically Heartbeat's own. The advantage being that Pacemaker uses Corosync. Heartbeat ended a long development freeze period with its version 3.0.2 in February.

CommentsToo many Americans have been dumbed down by our socialistic public school system & mainstream media, they are incapable of thinking logically & connecting these "dots."To the poster, Carol, who wisely asks what we can do in terms of readiness, I'd suggest becoming as self-sufficient as possible in terms of food & energy. IF martial law would be declared in future, the transportation system we take for granted will be dramatically impacted. A retired military contact of mine, who's in "the know", warned me that major highways & bridges will be closed under martial law. City residents would then be unable to flee to safer rural areas. Food would not be able to be shipped in as easily. The U.S./Canada border will likely be closed, as it briefly was following 9/11. If martial law would be used to usher in Marxism, I wouldn't be surprised if the government would shut down parts of the electric grid or even natural gas, making it difficult for people to travel far from their homes. During winter months, this would also make it far easier for the gov't to round up people from their unheated homes & transport them to FEMA camps already constructed--for their own good and safety, of course. (Yeah, right.) One source--and I was never able to verify this--stated that in event of martial law, parents would not be permitted to pick up their own children at school. Families would be thus divided. Homeowners should install a wood burning stove and obtaining 2-3 years worth of firewood, so in worst-case-scenario, they are able to cook & stay warm. Some ready-made foods are not highly nutritious--get a dehydrator to preserve your own fruits. vegetables, jerky. Stock on brown rice, dried beans,nuts (high in protein.) Read the late Euell Gibbons books "Stalking the Wild Asparagus" on how to gather, cook & prepare nutritious wild plants. (Use the search engine "IX quick" instead of Google to do such searches, as IX quick does not save a record of your searches.) A friend who is a member of the militia in another state, seriously advises people to get a tent, camouflage clothes, waterproof matches, basic camp equipment, & learn some survival skills in case families needed to "take to the woods" for their own protection. It seems so weird, so paranoid, to be discussing such topics, but after 3 years of witnessing the rapid downward spiral of this regime, I conclude that such scenarios may be possible. Posted by Susan on 04/26 at 05:13 PM | # how do you sleep at night? Posted by sdw on 04/26 at 08:27 AM | # Carol, Although you did not pose the question of "...is that all we can do?" may I offer my perspective. At my end of the world I am strengthening relationship with people in my local community. I have the advantage of living in a small town, 1500 population, and relatives are the local Constable and City Police Chief so getting to know one's neighbors is not difficult. I would highly recommend your getting to know your neighbors, if you don't already. Find people of like minds, i.e. conservatives, and find out how well informed they are. If they are not "up to date" on current happenings, I would suggest you bring them up to date in small increments. Refer them to CanadFreePress.com and have them browse the articles. You may even want to point them in a direction that will hit home to them, i.e. Freedom of Speech, Second Amendment, Obamacare, etc. Find out who your local butcher is. In a SHTF scenario, grocery stores will be out of goods in 72 hours or less. It would be good to know someone that can butcher a deer, cow or whatever else you can harvest to help you and your family/friends stay alive. Find out who is a "gardner" in your area and see if they would be willing to plant a "community" garden of assorted edibles. Contact your local police department and ask for the Chief. Pose this question to him/her. "If the order comes from on high, will you seize American citizen's firearms?" Or something similar. If he/she gives you any answer other than a straight forward "No", then you know whom you have to watch out for and this will confirm that your local PD is most probably NOT on the side of the American citizen or the oath he/she took to defend the United States Constitution against all enemies foreign or domestic. Stock up on MREs (meals Ready to Eat), ammunition (especially ammo because the anti-gunners will not go after our guns, they will most probably go after ammo), a couple of reliable firearms (hand gun & long gun), alternate weaponry (crossbow and bolts, bow and arrow), clothing (not just what will fit you and your family, but others as well...excellent bartering items), canned goods (again for barter), WATER (lots and lots of it). I could go on for hours, but I think you get the idea. God bless you and yours and may He once again smile upon America and her patriots. Posted by AJ on 04/25 at 02:25 PM | # Mr. Hagmann, Excellent article. I appreciate your willingness to speak the truth in this age of lies and deceptions. Please continue to help the American people wake up. At the end of the article you say "Get ready, Americans. Understand the playbook". What are you advising? I have heard many commentators and economists say those words referring to readiness, however, no real concrete ideas have come forth. Food, shelter, ammunition and most importantly, faith in Christ my Savior are good ideas, but is that all we can do? Posted by Carol on 04/25 at 01:07 PM | # Mr. Hagmann, Thank you for a Five Star article. Very important and very well said. Posted by Ralph Bunch on 04/24 at 08:12 AM | # I unfortunately agree with the person that said that we are past the point at which we can affect things at the voting booth. I think the election of George Bush against Gore and the insanity that ensued was to ensure they could open up the polls later on to those who are not citizens, those who are in prison, and effectively dismiss the military vote. And 8 years later--having been sneered at, and told the facts, those who were screaming in 2000 instead of paying attention to real fraud, turned their heads at the obvious proven fraud in 2008 and instead saw it as just desserts. But at the same time, we cannot give up. Even the Occupy movement will have its limits when its devout followers realize they are useful idiots. Well...some of them, others will just implode. There is no doubt that Obama was the Trojan Horse president. Posted by Marci on 04/24 at 02:04 AM | # Doug, this was awesome article, and it hits hard! I have linked back here, clipped and pasted two-three paragraphs,made a couple of comments, and told my readers to click that link and get over here to read this! Sigh, my ammo stash is nowhere near what I'd like. But I'm really good at "requisitioning" materials and equipment. Posted by cmblake6 on 04/23 at 08:33 PM | # My boss and I discuss, almost daily, what is happening to America. He is Austrian born and lived through WWII and the Nazi take over of Austria and most of Europe. He has also spent the majority of his live in Socialist countries and eventually immigrated, legally, to the U.S. in 1985. He has told me on several occasions that if the America of 1985 was the America of today, he never would have immigrated. He sees and recognizes the slow encroachment of the Marxist/Socialist ideology being melded into our society and he has also told me on several occasions that it is "too late" to accomplish any REAL change through the voting polls. I fear I must agree with him. Have no fear though, my fellow patriots, there are those of us that are willing to go to the mat for our country. Hard times are ahead of us. Whether they be brought on through the disintegration of our great nation or the war to get it back. Either way, hard times are ahead. So, prepare, prepare, prepare. Posted by AJ on 04/23 at 05:19 PM | # The coming chaos from the Obama-Soertoro playbookPosted by Doug Hagmann on Apr 23, 2012 at 04:06 PM
Riots, property destruction, chaos, and death seen in Athens and other European cities shown on the television news is coming to America very soon America and the world today is in chaos. Wars, rumors of wars, high gasoline prices, increasing food prices, growing divisions among races and between classes, current and impending financial collapses dominate the headlines. Critics and detractors of Barack Hussein Obama claim that it is a result of his failed policies that our house and much of the world is in such disarray.

nonconforming use
Also known as a prior nonconforming use (PNU), this exists when a zoning code is changed, but a parcel of land that is already being used for something disallowed by the new zoning code is "grandfathered in" (is allowed to continue). For example, if a neigborhood zoning is changed to residential, a corner grocery store may be allowed to continue to operate. The PNU will generally end when the use of the land is changed (so if the grocery store closes, the new zoning code will bar a new store from moving in).
Definition from Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary
The existing use (for example, residential, commercial, agricultural, light industrial) of a parcel of real estate that is now zoned for other kind of use Generally, a nonconforming use is permitted only if the use was legally established but now violates a zoning ordinance because the property was rezoned or the law was changed. For example, a corner parcel that has been used for a gasoline station for years might lie in an area now zoned for residential use only. The nonconforming use will be allowed ("grandfathered in"), but if the station were torn down or abandoned for a certain period of time, only residential use would be allowed going forward.

Last week was pretty fun. I launched my kickstarter for Year One, which was sort of the main event I had been working toward for a couple weeks. It took a lot of work to get my book to a point of completion, in terms of cover designs, supplemental pages, rounds of edits, video making, gathering promo material, etc, to finally be able to launch an actual Kickstarter. As a result, I don't have many photos from throughout the week. … Continue reading

Grubber, the Worm Monster
!! This is my first concept ever, please use helpful critique only. Also I'm not native to the English language, so descriptions or introductions might need some improvement and reforming. Thank you !!
The Worm Monster (or "Worm Beast") was my first concept I came up with playing HoN.
I barely know half of the DotA heroes and therefore cannot say if there is anything sharing the same concept with this one.
What the Worm Beast does, is using the terrain as a major element, moving forward underearth and attacking with mean attacks from the underworld. He is also able to absorb the energy of it's own creeps and use them as a weapon against enemies. Also it's mainly slowing the enemy down, being an annoying character on the field that gives your own team good support in any fight.
- No story yet :P -
(Illustration: Fanart for Dungeons & Dragons)
I used this image just because it is closest to my imagination of what it may look like, just not as long. More grub/worm like than a long snake.
__________________________________________________ ________________________________________
The Worm Monster is an Agillity Hero for the Hellbourne.
Str: 19 (Gain: 2)
Agi: 22 (Gain: 2.4)
Int: 13 (Gain: 1.8)
Meele Attack:
Attack Damage = 50-58
Attack Range = 125
Movementspeed = 310
Turnrate = 320
Armor = 3.35
MagicArmor = 5.5
This is a Agi Hero with Str Bonus but little Int and therefore smaller manapool. His speed is a little bit above average and his range is melee, but his attack damage is lower than most melees. His armor is strong.
__________________________________________________ ________________________________________
Gulp Fire
The Worm Monster devours one of his allies, throwing them up again at a location within 600 units, causing damage in a small AoE.
Level 1 : Deals 110 damage to each target in 100 radius at the location of impact. -10% Movement slow
Level 2 : Deals 160 damage to each target in 125 radius at the location of impact. -15% Movement slow
Level 3 : Deals 215 damage to each target in 150 radius at the location of impact. -20% Movement slow
Level 4 : Deals 265 damage to each target in 200 radius at the location of impact. -25% Movement slow
Mana cost: 75/100/120/140
Cooldown 20 seconds
On activation, this skill swallows the target and stays activated until target is fired.
When the Worm Monster dies while holding an allied hero, the hero will also die.
When used on a allied creep, the creep will die on impact.
When used on a allied hero, the hero will be tossed at the location, taking 50 damage and slowing all enemies for 5 seconds.
__________________________________________________ ________________________________________
Earth Rush (Activation)
The Worm Monster will dig into the ground and move around the map with slowed down movement. When returning to the surface, all enemies in the radius will take damage and be stunned for a short amount of time.
Level 1 : -15% movement speed, deals 120 damage and stuns for 0.5 seconds to all enemies in 200 radius
Level 2 : -15% movement speed, deals 150 damage and stuns for 0.75 seconds to all enemies in 200 radius
Level 3 : -15% movement speed, deals 190 damage and stuns for 1 second to all enemies in 200 radius
Level 4 : -15% movement speed, deals 250 damage and stuns for 1.5 second to all enemies in 200 radius
Mana cost 130, 3/6/9/12 mana each second being activated
Cooldown 30 seconds
While being under earth, the Worm Monster does not take any damage.
The effect will last until his mana runs out or he's being hit by a stun or being debuffed. Also, the Worm Monster cannot use any items while under the effects of this skill and cannot attack.
[Note: Yes, the Worm Monster's path will be visible to enemy heroes and they are able to target him but cannot attack him directly. The stun or disable/debuff has to come from AoE. The Worm Monster does not take any AoE damage.]
__________________________________________________ ________________________________________
Gorging (Passive)
The Worm Monster uses the bodies of each killed enemy to fill up his energy reserves.
Level 1 : Each kill gives +1 mana regeneration for 4 seconds and fills up 15% mana for each hero kill.
Level 2 : Each kill gives +2 mana regeneration for 6 seconds and fills up 20% mana for each hero kill.
Level 3 : Each kill gives +3 mana regeneration for 8 seconds and fills up 25% mana for each hero kill.
Level 4 : Each kill gives +4 mana regeneration for 10 seconds and fills up 30% mana for each hero kill.
Mana cost n/a
Cooldown n/a
Does not stuck with Chilling Presence, but does stuck with items and orb effects.
Does not stuck on itself, killing an enemy does renew the duration.
__________________________________________________ ________________________________________
Deadly Soil (Ultimate)
The Worm Monster will leave a trace of poisoned soil behind wherever he moves, damaging and slowing enemies drastically.
Level 1 : 15% Movement slow, 75 damage per second during contact.
Level 2 : 25% Movement slow, 100 damage per second during contact.
Level 3 : 35% Movement slow, 125 damage per second during contact.
Lasts 15/20/25 seconds, 500 unit line behind the Worm Monster.
Mana Cost 150/175/230
Cooldown 200/180/150
__________________________________________________ ________________________________________

I'm still unsure how balanced this character would be as I was trying new concepts. The Ulti seems to be hard to evaluate, because you might need to see how game mechanics make this work. The idea behind the Ulti is, that about 500 unit line behind the Worm Monster a path is affected wherever the Worm Monster moves.
I need balancing ideas for the following:
Is the Ulti's damage too high/low?
Is the manareg of Gorging too high/low; short/long?
Is there any other thing that has to be improved/nerfed?
Thanks to everybody voting and making suggestions.
Last edited by Jinjira; 08-19-2009 at 01:55 PM.
Really like the idea of it, but Earth Rush needs to use A LOT more mana per second so it would not be abused.
The ult seems fine, the duration may need to be reduced slightly. The damage is fine in my opinion.
The mana regen is fine, the duration may be too long. Dropping level 4 to 10 seconds would be sufficient.
Besides that, everything looks fine.
Thanks for the ideas. I fixed some skills based on that.
Earth Rush - yea I thought that.
Changed to: Mana cost 150, 2/3/4/5 mana each second
I actually thought a 60 sec CD would be efficient enough, as I is also an escape skill and a opener in some way.
Ulti now 15/20/25 duration
Manareg for 4/6/8/10, does renew for each new kill.
Well I feel that Gulp Fire is too similar to pebbles toss/chuck and it does pure damage which I do not like. Pure should only exist in a few instances and someone being thrown does not feel like one. Perhaps lowering the damage it does and adding a slow or DoT from his bile or something would separate it enough from pebbles. How wide will his ult be? if not too wide it would encourage zigzagging when trying to damage or to slow down a runner which is kinda neat.
Sig under construction until I think of a good one.
Not much wider than your hero, similar to Behemoth's Fissure, therefore zigzacking or circle running would be a nice tactic that has to be used. It still will follow you like a tail though.
I also changed the toss damage from pure to physical, but kept the numbers.
I didnt know weather physical or pure would be the better way to go.
Also added +10% attack speed for the tossed hero over 5 seconds.
(all changes are not final, keep making suggestions )
Last edited by Jinjira; 08-16-2009 at 02:16 PM.
Changed the mana to 130 and changed the mana burn to 3/6/9/12.
This skill will have to take about 1-2 seconds until the worm is burried completely to avoid activating and cancelling this skill within less than a second. Therefore, if he digs, enemys better run
Moar tips please
Oh and dun't forget to press "Yes"
Last edited by Jinjira; 08-16-2009 at 10:18 PM.
Yeah, didn't even take the 60 second cooldown into consideration. That was my bad. :P
As Orenjikun said, lowering the damage and adding a cool "bile" effect would make it different then Pebble's toss and keep with the theme.
Seems really balanced though. I like it.
Is -20% slow over 5 secs fine?
Reread Gulp Fire again. I kind of only want it to trigger while a hero is tossed.
- major update -
I balanced Earth Rush and Gorging to be more usefull even early in the game and stay balanced in mid-late game.
Also, changed starting int to 13, but made gain to 1.8
So this char is not completely dependend on mana but that way the player has to manage the manapool wisely without getting overpowered.
Looks okay to me, although "Earth Rush" still seems to be a weaker version of "Wind Walk".
I like having a Massive Worm Hero.
Abilities seem awesome and fun.
I want to know Gulp Fire's Range.
lol I never thought about that. The animation has to be very tricky then.. wow lol.
I don't know, I guess within a .5 sec animation, the worm has to go underearth and gulp them with it's mouth open like that big sand worm in the star wars movie. lol
This is my favorite hero concept I've read so far. It's truely original. I have suggestions too.
-To help differentiate from tiny more and give more variety in how this guys played, let Grubber keep a creep swallowed by Gulp Fire until he decides to spit it out, allowing him to combo skills without having to lane, mana cost and cooldown applied on spit instead of swallow to encourage smarter mana management.
-If you're using Earth Rush and you are standing still the enemies need true sight to see you. I don't know how long the fade time on the trail should be. Short enough to set up an ambush without being obvious, but long enough that if you werent quick enough your cover would be blown.
-Maybe even remove the mana per second when standing still
-Allowed to use an item (sort of), but it unburrows you THEN uses the item as if it were queued (just for convinience)

I hope that they sell the finished product here in the U.S. A. and lower our fuel prices. That is a great avatar picture. Want to become buddies??? Warren :o)

Ex-convicts may soon become a "protected class" in San Francisco – joining African Americans, Latinos, gays, transgender people, pregnant women and the disabled.
A proposal being circulated at City Hall would make it illegal for landlords and employers to discriminate against applicants solely because they were "previously incarcerated."
Sex offenders and perpetrators of some violent crimes would not be covered.
It would also be illegal to ask anyone about their criminal past on an initial job or housing application.
"The mechanics still need to be worked out," said Supervisor and sheriff candidate Ross Mirkarimi.
"This is a very important discussion on the eve of an immense state prisoner realignment that's going to return hundreds of prisoners back to San Francisco," Mirkarimi said.
Ex-cons already are a protected class when it comes to applying for a city job or seeking to live in housing run by the San Francisco Housing Authority.
Recently, however, the Reentry Council of San Francisco – made up of representatives of the mayor's office, the Police Department, the district attorney's office, the Sheriff's Department, the Adult Probation Department and ex-convicts – adopted a resolution urging the city to apply the special status to the private sector as well.
Janan New of the San Francisco Apartment Association condemned the idea, saying state and federal law already prohibits landlords from "arbitrarily discriminating" against applicants.
"When somebody comes to rent housing, we have the ability … to screen someone based only on the ability to pay rent," New said.
Now, by creating a newly protected class of citizens, New fears the city will unfairly open the door to "where people can litigate because they say, 'You're discriminating because I'm an ex-felon.' "
"Trust me – I recognize the concern," said District Attorney and former Police ChiefGeorge Gascón, who backs the plan. "But if we want to reduce the likelihood of people going back to prison, then we have to provide them with an opportunity to reintegrate themselves."
The city's Human Rights Commission is preparing to hold hearings on the proposal next week.
Last chance: After a last-ditch meeting that went nowhere, it's game on for the big pension reform fight.
"We're going to take it all the way to the finish line," Public Defender Jeff Adachi said after his Monday afternoon sit-down with Supervisor Sean Elsbernd and union leaders went south.
Adachi's price for keeping his plan off the ballot was a "safety valve" that he wanted inserted into City Hall's proposal. Under it, city workers would contribute more to their pensions than they have already agreed to if the stock market fails to perform to projections.
The idea was pretty much a nonstarter.
With that, Adachi went over to City Hall and submitted 72,640 signatures to qualify his measure for the November ballot.
Headed east: A delegation of state and regional transit officials jetted over to Shanghai for a $200,000 celebration of the final fabrication of the new Bay Bridge eastern span.
Workers at Shanghai Zhenhua Heavy Industries Co. were still putting some final touches this week on sections of the $6.3 billion span, wrapping up five years of outsourced – and sometimes troubled – bridge production.
Over the weekend, bridge contractors led by American Bridge-Fluor hosted a giant hamburger and hot dog barbecue for hundreds of Chinese workers at the main plant.
Contractors picked up a $150,000 tab for this and other parties – thanks, no doubt, to your toll bridge dollars.
The Bay Area Toll Authority footed a $50,000 party bill, plus an estimated $22,500 for flights and hotels for seven of its commission and staff members – plus two California Transportation Commission reps – to attend.
Caltrans, which has had as many as 65 workers in China for the past five years, insists nobody made a special trip from Sacramento just for the celebration.
In the grove: Retired U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker, who struck down the state's voter-approved same-sex marriage ban, will join San Francisco Giants CEOWilliam Neukom, filmmaker Ken Burns, former U.S. Sen. Alan Simpson and ex-Secretaries of State James Baker and George Shultz as speakers at the annual Bohemian Grove bash this month.
On a lighter note, Peter Sagal, host of NPR's "Wait, Wait … Don't Tell Me," is speaking on "Lord Rochester's Joke and the Flaw in Bohemia."
One tell-tale sign of the secretive July 14-31 gathering will be the stream of private jets landing at Santa Rosa Airport, and the procession of black limousines shuttling big-shot CEOs to the 2,700-acre redwood forest encampment along the Russian River.

H10 Playa Esmeralda Hotel Fuerteventura Guest Reviews (3)
we enjoyed both our stays at the hotel and must comment on the very high standard of the staff who were all very friendly and helpful. We would like to name three in particular, only because we had more contact with them than the others. They were Abil and flavia behind the lobby bar and the lady head waiter in the resteraunt.

Very clean and helpful staff all round.

Food was nice with a wide choice available. Pool was great fun and the beach is clean and very close. Only the hotel evening entertainment lacked a bit but otherwise a nice place to go... especially for families.

Choosing a Health Care Provider and Birth Setting
Things to do before choosing a health care provider and birth setting:1) Call your insurance company to learn which options are covered by your health plan. Ask about your co-payments and deductibles and what fees and services are covered by your insurance.2) Interview health care providers and visit birth settings that are available in your community before choosing what is best for you and your partner. Be sure to ask about fees for services so that you can estimate your out-of-pocket costs (costs you will pay). 3) If you decide to have care that is not covered by insurance, you will have to pay for the costs yourself. Ask if you can pay on a sliding fee scale (a payment based on your income) or make special payment arrangements. You may also be eligible for Medicaid or other special programs for pregnant women. (Contact the Department of Social Services in your state to see if you're eligible.) Whatever you decide, just be sure to research your options before you contact a care provider to ask questions. As you start your research to choose a health care provider, it is important to consider their personal qualities, philosophy of care, and professional qualifications. Remember, health care providers may be licensed to do different things, like prescribe medication, perform surgery, or work in a hospital. That's why it's important to learn as much as you can about the health care provider's training, beliefs, and where they attend births, before selecting one. For more detailed information on choosing a health care provider and birth setting, go to our Pregnancy Topics for Choosing a Place of Birth and Choosing a Caregiver. Click here for a contact list of local health care providers in your area for these birth options. Most recent page update: 9/9/2010

Online Reservations
A lively and large establishment. The food was delicious. We had our little boy with us and we all enjoyed ourselves. Definitely recommend. Service was kind, fast and courteous.
My boyfriend and I went to Domenica over the weekend to see how their happy hour deals were. With it being a bit high priced on normal occasions, we were very surprised and excited to see the great deals they offered- half off all pizzas as well as beer, wine, and well drinks. We each got our own pizza because of the great prices and their drink selection was extensive. The food was magnificent. The pizza had a perfect, thin crust, fresh ingredients, and tasted absolutely delicious. Our server was attentive but not overly intrusive and always made sure we had what we needed. We will definitely go again and have already recommended it to several friends!
We keep going back to Domenica - the food is amazing, the menu incredibly creative, and the staff is wonderful. This trip we went twice. The first visit we had a little mix up with one order (no big deal at all - an allergy to an ingredient, but it was caught before we took a bite - great that they paid that close attention to every ingredient!) and they were so good about making sure everything else was okay. The chef on duty that evening (Joey) even came out himself. Made us love the place even more. Our server, Kelly, was terrific, too.
Food was both amazing and plentiful, and happy hour specials made the meal downright cheap. The service was very slow, but this may have been a fluke--other tables that sat down after us had their food served before we got ours. I would normally be more annoyed by that sort of thing, but the quality of everything really outweighed that negative. We'll definitely be back, and are making this our go-to place for happy hour dinners in the city.
Loved the surprising, imaginative combinations offered. Everything we ate was scrumptious. Only wish we lived there to be able to try all items on the menu. Squid ink pasta with seafood was excellent. Their fried kale was the best and crispiest we have ever found anywhere. Server was excellent. Professional, warm, and attentive. Nice to have great wine by the glass at half price during happy hour.
Since I discovered that Domenica has half price pizza and cocktails between 3 and 6pm every day, I have visited weekly. The pizzas are inventive, gourmet creations. I recommend the roasted carrot (beets, brussel sprouts, and hazelnuts - yum!). The ambiance is classy without being formal or stuffy, and the servers are top notch. If you haven't been to Domenica, get down there! But be sure to make a reservation in advance, because tables fill up quickly.
In a city with amazing restaurants I could still eat eat here every day.
A group of co-workers in New Orleans on the first night of 8 needed a quick bite. We found this great place on the web (MDW found it for me). Different types of Pizza for multiple tastes and managable portions for everybody to have alone or even share. the Meat and Cheesee sampler board was fantastic. You can order 3,5 7 items to accent your main or complement it. We had a 5, including the soft goat and sheeps milk cheese with wonderful fresh bread slivers, Parma Reg in large chunks.3 meats including a wonderful Speck. I had the spicy Salami Pizza that really lived up to it's name. Another Pizza with Pulled Pork looked great. A 3rd of Porcini mushrooms and finally the Speck and tomato pizza.
had a great dinner! ordered the affettati misti (chef's selection of assorted salumi, imported cheeses, marinated olives & roasted vegetables) as an app. did not care for everything on the platter but that is simply a matter of taste. the presentation was beautiful. ordered the bolzano and white pizzas for dinner. the bolzano crust was a bit burned in areas but still good. the white pizza was perfect and delicious. our waiter, i believe his name was kevin, was excellent! had a great knowledge of the menu and recommended some good wine pairings. it's hard sometimes to find the right balance of checking with a table too little or too often but he nailed it. very happy to have finally tried domenica.
Without a doubt, the best Besh stop. Squid Ink pasta is fantastic. Chanterelle appetizer is to die for.
Food was very good. I wish I could have sampled more of the pizzas in a group.
Had a great time at Domeica's. Went for the happy hour with one-half off pizzas and drinks. Enjoyed three different pizzas all done to perfection - Carne Tutti (sp?), spicy pork and wild mushrooms. Also tried two of the specially offered appetizers - pork belly excellent and red fish collars - very good and different. Wines by the glass were also very good. At our table we tried the pinot grigio, pinot noir and chianti. When it was asked of our waiter - who also was very attentive - which was the best chianti he brought out one not on the wine list and it was very good. It is a noisy restaurant but everyone there looked like they were having a good time.
Not only was the food great, but the restaurant environment and the waitress added to the overall wonderful experience at Domenica. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who would like to enjoy great food! When you visit Domenica, please try the roasted cauliflower with feta goat cheese. You will be delighted with the great taste of this appetizer.
Domenica never disappoints. The atmosphere is fun and you cannot beat the Happy Hour specials. The pizzas are the best in the city and the drinks are creative.
Not your run of the mill Italian. Pizza was excellent , out of the world crust. Pasta perfectly cooked. Fish melted in your mouth. Octopus appetizer was sublime. Went for dinner, and two days later came back for lunch and loved it as much
The top pizza in the CBD. The appetizers are wonderful. Everything first rate. Hope they have a Hanukkah meal this year.
Great for dinner prior to going to a concert or event, since it is near a major theater. The restaurant has a variety of food choices; some are unusual but very tasty. The service was excellent, and we were able to leave on time to attend a concert nearby.
Had lunch there. Food was very nice and different, not the "usual Italian" (whatever that means, considering how heterogenous true Italian really is!) -- exotic and eclectic, that is. Very interesting the roasted cawliflower as as appetizer, loved the rabbit and porcini pasta and the "black tagliolini" with squid ink and crab meat. Unlike most reports of it being noisy, at lunch it was rather quiet. If noisy does not do for you, go there for lunch. It's worth it.
Came @ 5:15 on Mon & took advantage of weekday specials. Great service & enjoyed 1/2 price margherita pizza very much-only $3.25 ea for 1/2 a pizza-what a deal! Banana dessert was delicious & I'm not even a big banana fan! Didn't care for peach bellini due to strong bitter flavor but my friend enjoyed 2 pomegranate bellinis at 1/2 price. Server was good enough to ask if we wanted a 2nd pizza before specials ended at 6pm. Unfortunately, even though I made my reservation mos ago, we had a terrible table--just inside front door but not tucked around the side, near the windows. Unfortunately we were hit with a cold blast of windy air every time the door opened. Worse yet, it reeked because people stood right there smoking (even cigars-yuck!)
efficient, friendly, attentive service from Will; a very professional and personable waiter.
My husband and I split a pizza. He had the lamb meatballs on his and I had the mushroom with yard egg. Both of us loved it. I had been reading the reviews and knew service here was an issue with several patrons. I must say they were right, our waiter, Will was only adequate -- did what he had to and nothing extra and was very unfriendly.
Chef takes traditional foods and makes them eclectic masterpieces. Food was A+ from gator to pork to reddish to dessert
Wonderful experience! Recommend roasted cauliflower appetizer. We had tickets to the Saenger and the staff did a great job of communicating excellent food choices and efficiently taking care of us and sending us on our way in time to see the show. We will be back.
The service and food are excellent and on point. I have dined here several times for lunch and dinner and have enjoyed the experience every time. Would definitely go back for lunch. Love love love the roasted cauliflower and goat/feta dip. My FAV on the menu.
I've been a couple of times and once was with a large group where we ordered family style and shared the majority of the items on the menu. Everything was delicious! The seasonal appetizers - friend squash blossoms and fried kale - were out of this world and the ever present roasted cauliflower was incredible. My two favorites from the main menu were the squid ink pasta and the carrot pizza - there aren't any carrots on the pizza so I have no idea why it is called this, and the ingredients themselves sounded odd, but don't let that fool you, it was a hit!
Our waiter really knew the menu and dish ingredients. His recommendations were spot on. I like pizza with a thinner, crispier crust, but the flavor of our pie was outstanding. We also had a delicious redfish plate and 2 members of our group completely enjoyed the lasagna bolognese. The semifreddo dessert was a real treat.
We were expecting a simple regular Italian but it turned to be a wonderful experience. The food was exquisite. We had the plate of cheese and salamis for starters, they were served with many different types of delicious bread. The pasta were cooked perfectly and the desserts were delicious. At the end, we were given a little thank you box with delicious chocolate cookies. We will be back for sure!
Saturday lunch before a show at the Saenger - Luke was the perfect choice on a cool, blustery day. The minestrone soup was totally unexpected (and delicious!) with fresh favors of watermelon radish and dill. Trying to keep it light, I chose an appetizer for my main course: OMG - the mushroom ragout with marrow butter on toast was Incredibly rich and luscious, but NOT light. In any case, I ate every bite. Service was casual, but very good. And, the noise level was minimal (it was an early lunch.) Only disappointment was I didn't have room for the banana cake. I will be back.
Excellent pizzas.The Cauliflower dish is out of this world
The service was very good. I recommend making reservations. We requested an off the menu item (white anchovies in olive oil) and the chief was very accommodating. We also ordered the octopus carpaccio and hedgehog mushrooms for our appetizers, all were excellent. For our entrees we ordered the Squid Ink Tagliolini, Stacci and the Bolzano pizza; all very good. The Stacci (oxtail and chicken liver) with pasta was by far the best of the three entrees; The Tagliolini was a close second. Wine selection was good. The noise level is very high. Nice neighborhood restaurant but not for romantic meals. Definitely better to go after 6:00 pm. They have a half price special from 3-6 which brings in a lot of traffic (children and noise!)
Great food, excellent service, moderately priced, within walking distance of Saenger Theater, Joy Theater, French Quarter. Located in one of the most beautiful hotels in New Orleans. It has it ALL! If I didn't live 90 minutes away, I would go much more often.
Had a great time! The wait staff was helpful, prompt and friendly and the pizzas were excellent. I hope to go back soon to try the other menu items. I've had the roasted cauliflower for an appetizer, which is excellent but haven't tried the other menu items because the pizza is so good that I order it every time I go. The Hotel was decorated for Christmas and was breathtaking. The ambiance of the place is special and the Sazerac Bar is right next door if you want to continue your stay beyond supper. What a great location!
John Besh gives so much back; loved the fab treats; great little gift. Thank you for our delicious pizza in NOLA. We traveled from Fort Polk in terrible traffic, missed our seating; and still had an opportunity to enjoy ourselves. Can't wait to visit our next Besh establishment. God bless and happy holidays! Thanks again,
Went in for Thanksgiving dinner and had the 4 course prix fix. I made reservations about a week in advance and had been looking forwards to my first Thanksgiving in a restaurant. Was not disappointed. Great service, fun atmosphere, outstanding dinner!
Found myself in New Orleans over Thanksgiving without a plan so I went to Dominica and sat at the bar. Couldn't have had a better solo Thanksgiving lunch! Very friendly, good sweet bartender. Also the food was perfect. (Nothing iike burrata, squid ink pasta and a glass of red for Thanksgiving dinner!) It was a nice alternative to a big dinner with a bunch of people, overdosing on gravy and mashed potatoes. I had been to Dominica several times over the past few years, as I work in NOLA frequently, and I've always enjoyed it a lot. It's a great place.
Domenica is always a fun place to go but the half off happy hour prices are fantastic. I love the holidays at the Roosevelt and it was the perfect day to walk through the lobby and grab a late lunch. Everything was wonderful: wine, pizza, cauliflower, and afatati misti. Chef Alon was out in the main dining area and stopped by to say hello.
Great menu. We had pizza and panini which were both fantastic. Food was perfect temperature and tasted fresh. The desserts were also fantastic - fun combo of items (like ice cream, donuts, and espresso for topping) and tasty. Service was a great combo of attentiveness without too much intrusion. Pizzas are big enough to eat family style - 2 could serve 3. I wish I lived in New Orleans just so I could eat here more often.
This place has a really high-end menu with lots of items that I'd never dream of attempting to cook at home. The wine list is impressive and they don't appear to be marking up the wine prices too much. The restaurant is embedded into the Roosevelt Hotel, which has a spectacularly breathtaking, but gaudy, lobby from the 1920s. The menu is mostly Italian, but with some Sephardi Jewish/Israeli items mixed in for major Jewish holidays like Passover, Rosh, and even minor holidays like Hannukah. A little pricy overall, but the low wine prices (for very nice wines) make it well worth it (as well as the very expertly created main courses.)
Domenica is a very lively place to meet up for after work drinks or an informal meal. In our small group we had the Quattro Formaggio pizza and the Wood Fired eggplant. The pizza was good, not earthshaking but very good and properly cooked. The wood fired eggplant was a total surprise. It was one of the simplest and most delicious dishes I have had in a very long time. I would go back just for that. The wine list was wonderful, I had the opportunity to try a nice red, a moscato, and a pomegranate bellini. Then to add just one more perfect note, we were there during happy hour and everything was half price. Also watch where they seat you, it was one of the coldest days of the year and a cold wind blew on us every time the door opened.
Great food great service and great location. Best at Christmas time to walk around the hotel lobby
This is the restaurant that my wife and I went to on our honeymoon weekend. We just made one year and went there fir dinner. It was a great experience both times. Cant wait to go back.
We had the special Chanukah dinner. Could not have been more festive or delicious. They do special dinners for other Jewish holidays as well.
My son is a CIA student working his extern ship here. We have been waiting to get here to taste everything . The menu was better than expected. Can't wait to go back.
Delicious pizza - tried the roasted carrot with beets, etc. salad and cheese / salami plate good, but not necessary. Unfortunately, the place was so loud, I couldn't have a conversation with my wife without yelling...
We really enjoyed our authentic Italian dishes here. The red fish with lemon tabbouleh was phenomenal, as was the gnocchi! Great drinks from the bar and a wine list sure to please most any palate/budget. Atmosphere was warm and inviting. Perfect evening!!
John Besh has taken his talents into the Italian realm with gusto. An all Italian wine list with plenty to choose from. Interesting cheeses, great bread and infused EVOO for dipping, salads with grilled pears and baby greens. Banana cake came in a Mason jar and was moist and wonderful. The tiramisu was the best I ever had and it was served in a little glass pot. Kevin was our waiter and was not only attentive but, helped us with some selection and was so very pleasant. Overall, a great lunch.
I had an awesome lunch at Domenica. The restaurant was fun and had a great vibe. Our server was really nice and took good care of us. We ordered a pizza which was rustic and covered with delicious house-made meats . The Minestrone soup was quite unique, and full of roasted veggies. The table also shared the squid ink pasta with crabmeat. It was a covered with a light herb sauce that was just right. It was loaded with crabmeat. Dessert was also amazing. We had the banana zuppa, a banana pudding pie in a jar that was both fun and a great way to end the meal. I would definitely recommend Domenica to friends and can't wait to return.
Had reservations for four before the Carolina game. Seated immediately. Very good, knowledgeable waitress. Had roasted cauliflower and octopus carpaccio as appetizers. Both very good, especially the octopus. We each ordered different pizzas; clam, quattro fomaggi, roasted beet, and sausage. All were great! Had an excellent pinot noir by the glass. Love the place!
Great roasted cauliflower, hedgehog mushrooms. Best waitstaff ever!
Great food, whatever you choose, but with pizza, wine, beer and well cocktails all at half price, Domenica's 365-days-a-year happy hour is high on everyone's list. Reservations essential on weekends.
