One could say that time is relative, life is in one's mind and we are what we think we are. Our beliefs, faith, uncertainness, and assuredness of a lost battle against death, makes me rethink, daily, what really makes one happy, fulfilled, and conversely inclined to still keep trying.
Conversely inclined to still keep trying as it is indeed a lost battle. It is just a matter of time. As faster one runs, closer one gets to death. Nevertheless, we are here: writing, reading, thinking, and living.
Sometimes, all we need is "nothing". Yes. Nothing. According to psychology, overthinking makes one depressed and depression itself can lead to sickness, low quality life, and eventually even death.
I am taking a vacation from myself. It does not mean that I am annihilating what I am or what I think: I just do not have to prove anything for a week, not even to myself.
Being able to see the sunshine and sunset for a whole week; being together with beloved ones, and feeling free to write, study, or just do nothing, is freedom from religion, belief, faith, but not from love, AKA God.
It is true that religion has broth both, peace and darkness, hope and war, faith and doubt, goodness and cruelty. One could have used this introduction for any other human manifestation such as politics; however, religion plays the ultimate role as it is in the human spirit. It involves not only thoughts, but faith; not only strength but the believe that someone greater is on their side.
If goodness and cruelty can be found is every group in the world, from the groups so called civilized or not, in every single culture there is the notion of what is good and what is not, so why does religion still pays for what humans do? Because it touches the heart. What makes us live is what kills us.
Therefore, one must give a thought on the possibility that it is not religion that brings harm to the humans, but humans themselves. There are good and bad people in every culture, religion, or philosophy. In different levels, in different perceptions, but after all we are all people: Broken people that need a reason to be. I call that reason "Spirit" and its goal "God". I call the goodness of a man, "holiness" – be separated from others, and the "cruelty" of a man, "madness" – that separate others.
Please, choose to be separated
The year was 1530. The catholic priest called Desiderius Erasmus Roterodamus said these so true words about being surrounded by less intellectual people makes one smarter than one really is. What makes man-kind one-eyed? It goes beyond physical disability, but mental, spiritual, and most harmful, moral.
Roterodamus believed that every man had the freewill. [Nothing was predestinated to happen. No fate, no destiny.] Even at the period of the protestant reform, he stands to the believe that every person makes what one believes is true, even if this believe is not founded in the pure meaning of the object of being accept as true. Does it make one right? Does it make one wrong? It depends on the point of view.
Being in the middle sometimes is not that bad. One could say that not having an opinion about everything is a sign of weakness. However, once the human being puts its faith on something he/she believes is true, it gets very hard to change one's mind. Therefore, the person becomes one-eyed as can only see one side of the reality.
A common example of partiality here in Brazil is the soccer game. As in 2012, two teams were struggling to be the number one in a state championship. At a critical time in the game, a player makes a penalty against the team that was losing. Nevertheless, the team that was losing was giving the right to make a directed kick and bingo! Now, the so called loser was now the winner. Needless to say, the loser team said the referee was totally wrong, where the winning team said the referee was totally right. Who is right?
Not only in the soccer or any other games that one can see examples like the one above. Even more examples can come from religious belief. Muslims believe they've got the message from Allah right from their prophet Muhammad (19.6%, according to David B. Barrett, from the Oxford University Press). Christians on the other hand, believe that there is only one God, and its prophet (also God), Jesus (33% according to the David B. Barrett). Notices that at some places, religious believes are the cause of uncountable deaths – and this is for the cause of "god". Imagine if it was for the cause of "evil". In time: atheism is not to be in the middle of the battle. It takes more faith to believe that pure chaos created us than a creator.
The need to believe in something is both a blessing and a curse. On one hand one gets the satisfaction of being in a comfort zone and on the other hand one "loses an eye" and sometimes get enemies as well. Forgive me for being repetitious, but the only solution to this "one-eyed" problem is still the golden rule. Other than that, one should at least expose ideas only when asked for and always in the best manner possible. At the end, we are ALL one-eyed people, and whoever does not agree with me just proves my point.
I've heard this slogan today from a coworker when he was talking about a recent event where a famous soccer player did a video where he was wearing a monkey costume. Although one must agree that prejudice is in the eye of the beholder, at some extend it must be at minimum contradictory as there is indeed evil in this world. How to determine what is really evil or just the result of our own view of the facts which suffers interference from our life experiences? Being educated, thinking about the consequences of an act, and treating others as one would like to be treated are the keys for having a good and happy life without or at least with minimum prejudice.
Educated people tend to be less prejudiced [they tend, meaning not everyone]. When one is aware of the consequence that bad choice can cause, one inclines not to do so, just as a good chess player would do/think: "If I play this move, what could happen in the next 2 or 3 (or even more) moves ahead." The idea of measuring the consequences is a way to suppress any prejudicial thought.
The writer Ben Goldacre wrote on an article at the English newspaper The Guardian: "Prejudice, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder." He goes a step further and adds beauty to the equation. History tells us that the concept of beauty depends on geographic place, but mainly on time in history. However, the prejudice about what one is thinking is wrong, should not depend on experiences, but solo on the golden rule: One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself.
Our view of the world and people surrounding us comes from our level of understanding (also called education), life experiences, and total prejudice in its deep meaning. The more educated, responsible, and aware of the golden rule we are, the more we tend to accept others as they are, even when they do not share the same ideas. As I like to say: The light (knowledge) changes our point of view (what we believe is true/good/acceptable/wrong).
Life is not easy and sometimes not fair. That we all know for fact. Why does it have to be this way? What it if one could get everything one wants? Would life be better or worse, easier or tougher? One can perceive several examples of how being in a position of power brought people to death or defeat, even if at the beginning it appeared to be the perfect and intangible state of art a life could get. If one could do everything one wants, life would be terrible not only for the person itself, but everyone else as well.
According to the genesis as described on the Christian bible, the man and woman had the power over all living things on earth. They could do everything that was good. However, they decided to do what was wrong according to God. When Adam was put out of the Eden garden, God said to him: "through painful toil you will eat food from it all the days of your life". Other cultures also demonstrate the desire of the man to be godlike. Such civilizations like the Greeks actually had their own views of the gods being real entities that could interact, even in a sexual way, with humans. As one can see from the Greek mythology, even the gods had problems doing everything they wanted. Death and disgrace seems to be surrounded by when one simply tries to be the master of life doing whatever is in the mind. In these two examples, both brought disgrace to others, not only for the one that actually did the bad act.
Humans are always looking for something else. If one has a motorcycle, desires to get a car. After getting a car, comes the house, the pool, the "toys", and so on. It is never enough. In certain extend, capitalism increases this feeling of emptiness.
This post does not bring an answer, but more questions. How would it be if life were too easy? No challenges or goals to accomplish? No dreams to become true? In some way, one could assume that it would be just too tough to live. One thing I know: no matter what one thinks, we still have to go after our dreams and recognize that we all have limits and, finally, will get old and die.
Recently, a local TV station showed what could be called murder in the highest sense. The supposed killer started gun shooting the victim several times, including the head as a mean to certify the victim would die. Needless to say, the victim is dead indeed, one could say. No! He not only survived but also was already walking a few days later as if nothing had happened. Is there fate? I surely believe and affirm there is not. Although I do believe that there is a God, things in the universe happen as the result of the billions of variables that make us unique and leads to every single event in earth, from the smallest to the highest level.
When I started this blog, I agreed to myself not to be religious tendentious and I will try to continue like so, but sometimes one has to make use of faith to explain the things we cannot explain. How could this man survive so many gun shots, including in the head, and still survive? Needless to mention other examples we see once in a while. The answer is fairly simple: 7 billion people. If one takes a sample of 7 billion, there will be, statistically speaking, several cases like this one. One has to agree that the math can't be wrong. Was he lucky? Sure he was, but that is it: just a matter of causality.
The same thing we see in daily life has happened in our own world several million years ago. For instance, let's take the dinosaurs. The poor lizard like cute big animals were not lucky at all as they lived in a time were, one in trillion of asteroids, got to be in the right path, time, and space of earth. Again, infinite number of asteroids and celestial bodies would definitely give the chance to it to happen. As scientists say: you just let time goes, and it will happen again.
One must have much more faith to believe that causality made us, than believe that there is a superior been (and I named Him God) has done it. I do recognize that even God took the time, 14 billion years to be more precise, to make things happen. By the way, if you do believe in God, keep in mind that time does not make any difference for Him, and before time He was.
Is there a fate to every living thing in the universe? I don't believe so. If one does not take the action to go after whatever he/she wants, or be lucky enough to get it already done, fate won't do any good. Of course, everyone has the right to comment (like I wrote a few days back), but the cause effect paradox will surround us forever, until for the ones that believe in God discover it in its plenitude, or just to have a sad existence end in for those who believe that this life ends when one dies. Either way, don't except too much on fate. Make it happen.

Six ways for gardeners can survive winter with style.
Power through branches with ease.
Butterfly gardening isn't difficult or complicated, but it does take some planning. Grow nectar-rich flowers for the adults and larval host plants for their young. Butterflies and caterpillars are particular about plants throughout their lifespan.
Try not to be overwhelmed by all the information out there. Start with these tricks:
• Research the butterflies most common in your region before buying plants.
• Place your garden in the sun with protection from the wind. Butterflies need warmth to fly.
• Provide shallow dishes of moist soil with pebbles for male butterflies to "puddle." They gather nutrients and salts from soil which is part of the mating process.
• Don't use pesticides. All beneficial insects are susceptible to pesticides. If you encourage a healthy ecosystem, bugs and birds will clean up most of the bad bugs anyway.
A cottage garden filled to the brim with flowers from the Asteraceae family is a great place to start. Grow Rudbeckia spp., black-eyed Susans, and try a unique variety like R. hirta 'Irish Eyes' with its striking green centers. Don't limit yourself to the "Susans" though. They are only part of the large and varied Asteraceae family. So are daisies, asters and mums. Butterflies and other pollinators love these plants, and you can't go wrong with most of them.
Another nectar plant that keeps butterflies happy is Phlox paniculata 'Bright Eyes,' seen above. The "eye" is a visual landing pad. I also grow pink passalong phlox, and both types grow steadily with some irrigation. Leucanthemum x superbum 'Becky' shasta daisies are great too. 'Becky' coordinates so well with rtemisia ludoviciana 'Silver King' and Verbena bonariensis. Pentas are butterfly magnets in late summer when other flowers stop blooming.
While most gardeners plant for adults, a good butterfly garden supports their entire life cycle. Choose plants that caterpillars love to munch. Larval plants are an essential part of keeping butterflies returning year after year. Adults need to mate and lay eggs before their lives end on a flutter of gossamer wings.
Common butterflies and their larval plants:
Swallowtails– Caterpillars eat dill, parsley and fennel. They will strip a dill plant to its stems in a few days, and some gardeners find this frustrating. I grow several dill plants in my flower garden along with my vegetable plot to keep them satisfied.
Monarchs– This fan favorite is in trouble. We must plant milkweeds in our gardens to save the Monarchs because their habitat is nearly gone in many places along their migration path. There are different types of milkweed. Choose one native to your area if you're unsure. I've grown Asclepias incarnata, swamp milkweed, in my garden, along with A. tuberosa, butterfly weed. This year, I'm starting seeds of A. speciosa, showy milkweed. Viceroys and Queens, like the butterfly below, resemble Monarchs so get out your identification guide to see which are visiting your garden.
Gulf Fritillary– These caterpillars love the other-worldly passionflower vine. I planted two hardy Passiflora incarantato clamber up a trellis on one side of my deck. By late summer, they were eaten, but I was still happy because I want to help these orange beauties.
One more thing: watch out for chrysalis in your fall garden. While most of us are familiar with the Monarch's green and gold chrysalis, the Gulf Fritillary's looks like an old gray leaf. Don't be too fast to clear out your garden in fall. Many good creatures overwinter and hatch there. Some even unfurl their wings during winter in southern states.
We love butterflies. Their intense coloration and romantic flutterings have inspired art and literature since people first began putting pen to paper. Grow some of these plants and watch butterflies take flight in your garden too.

The late Irish playwright Oscar Wilde believed it was absurd to divide people into good or bad. People are either charming or tedious, he said.
It is difficult to guess which categorization the long-dead Wilde would affix to Long Island tabloid fixtures from the 1990s such as Amy Fisher and Joey Buttafuoco. But their ability to draw a national crowd in 2011 will be put to the test on Saturday, Nov. 5 when both participate in a Celebrity Fight Night boxing card at the Avalon Theatre in Hollywood, California.
There's no need to hop on a plane to catch all the action. DirecTV subscribers can, from the comfort of their own home, watch Fisher square off against Nadya 'Octomom' Suleman, and see Buttafuoco get into the ring against Lou Ballera, Fisher's husband. The price to watch the proceedings live starting at 9 p.m. on pay-per-view is $29.95.
"This is going to be like going home for me," said A.J. Benza, a West Islip native who covered many of these same celebrities-turned-combatants years ago as a New York Daily News gossip columnist. Benza will be calling the fights for DirecTV from ringside along with Frank Stallone, Sylvester's brother.
The Celebrity Fight Night's promoters are at least honest in their marketing materials. For instance, DirecTV highlighted prominently on its website that the line-up of boxers was subject to change. The disclaimer proved fortuitous as another notorious Long Islander, Michael Lohan, was imprisoned in Florida last week on assault charges. Lohan's legal problems may imperil the bout Lindsay Lohan's father was to have had with Kato Kaelin, who gained fame while testifying at the O.J. Simpson trial in the mid-1990s. To date, it looks like nothing will keep Tareq Salahi, who crashed a White House state dinner with his now-estranged wife in 2009, from exchanging blows with Jose Canseco, the chemically-enhanced former major league baseball player.
"I don't think we're going to see crisp combinations and skilled footwork," Benza stated, as our conversation turned to the competitors' boxing skills.
This weekend's festivities get underway with a weigh-in on Friday, Nov. 4, and Benza and Stallone will be in Hollywood for that, too. You think they'd wait a whole day to find out whether the rapper Coolio, another faded star on the Celebrity Fight Night circuit, was in shape?
Having moved back to Long Island recently after living for years in southern California, Benza probably has the best career prospects of anyone associated with the Nov. 5 extravaganza. He was a Newsday reporter before moving to the Daily News, and then hosted the E! Channel's Mysteries and Scandals series, a show which explored some of Hollywood's darkest real-life tales. His most recent TV gig was as co-host of The Game Show Network's High Stakes Poker program.
The newspaper business, however, is in his blood. "I enjoyed that more than anything I've ever done," Benza said. "I still love walking into a newsroom." He has reason to believe there's a place for him today in the New York media firmament. For now, a trip to California lays ahead. Benza can plot his own comeback when he returns home next week.

The Vee Flying V is a great tire for mountain bike use. Tapered ramped center knobs help with traction. Long side knobs for fantastic cornering. The tire is made with a folding bead, dual compound, and 120 threads per inch casing material. We recommend this tire if you're planning on going hard.
Vee Rubber makes some of the best tires around. Check out the wide selection of tires.
Weird oversteer on pavement. Not confident at all unless I'm on dirt. It got better as they wore but I will not buy this again. Tough tire though - no flats after 3 months
Got these due to the ratings I saw, put them in the sun to warm up then mounted these on Niner hard tail, and wow! Fast, Fast…fast! Very impressed with the traction on dry and dusty trails, not to mention the pulling power up hills. Going to get another pair to go on the full suspension after the Rapid Ron's wear out.
I found these tires for 9.99 and figured why not try them. They are great. I have amazing grip around the corners even at high speed. They slide some in muddy conditions, but not as much as I expected. They are light and roll very fast. I would buy these again and am going to buy a Vee Rubber rear tire when my small block 8s wear out
Have put 200 plus miles on this tire. Have used it on the rear only so far. Bought two when they were on sale and bought 2 more on a free shipping day. Rolls fast, hooks up well in most conditions, although I probably would not recommend it during the rainy season if you live with a lot of muddy trails. Have a few muddy sections on the trails where I ride and tire is not an issue in these sections. The low profile tread does not pick up a lot of mud and sling it on the bike.
These were on sale so I figured not much risk to give one a try. Slapped it on tubless on the rear of my Tallboy and hit the NorCal hardpack. This sucker rails! Ordered a couple more an threw one on my SS and the performance mashing up hills was outstanding. I have since tried it on Fort Ord sand, excellent, and mildly muddy conditions after a downpour and it still performed admirably. I have a 24 hour race coming up in a couple of weeks and this tire has gained my confidence enough to be the one rolling the rear with a WildRacer up front for a bit more bite. Next time these go on sale I'm buying 10 of them.
Great cheap tire. Replaced Maxxis Ardent on my Kona. Thanks for the great deal Price Point.
I change tires all the time just to try them out and so far it always seems like there is a trade off for grip/speed...but not with the flying vee. I use this tire on the front only so far in really dry and dusty to damp and somewhat slimy conditions. This tire is not only very fast, it also grips really well in corners. I have about 50 miles on it now and I'm very impressed. Dont let the short knobs fool you. I'm going to order a couple more to have for when this one wears out and maybe try it on the back too.
These tires worked great on my trail rides! No prob on cornering and traction. The fantastic bargain price and fast shipping were added bonus!
Bought these while Pricepoint was having a sale on them for $9.99. Threw one on the rear to replace a worn out Kenda small block 8 and LOVE them. Lightweight, 120tpi, very fast rolling, easy tubeless application, and inexpensive. Can't go wrong with these guys. -Carlos
Good on concrete and hard pack.
To be honest I didn't really expect much from these tires when I bought them. Taking them out to the desert, I was surprised at how grippy the traction was going through rock gardens. Knobs are pretty tame compared to most tires, so I would only recommend these for hard pack or dry trail use.
I like these tires. They mounted tubeless easily, and they feel fast on the road. The knobs barely count as knobs, they're so small. I haven't ridden them in the wet and slop yet, but they'd be perfect for gravel. Also cheap.
For the price, you'll be hard pressed to find a better, lighter tire. I'll be buying them again, highly recommend them.
For Tucson this tire chews up and rides thru Fantasy Island like its nothing. Railed into corners hit the sugar sand at speed and had no issues at all. Went over what little rocks there were and the they just kept on grabbing at whatever I threw at them. Def stay way clear of the mud...that's obvious these tires don't have the depth for that. I was shocked at what little depth they have. But as mentioned earlier I put these through their paces and was not disappointed at all. Final verdict: good, cheap, fast tire for running thru the southwest avoiding cactus and running on hard packed single track.

Irrigation project joins research, technology and technique
The Center Pivot Water Conservation Project exists to bring the latest research, technologies and techniques to irrigators, said Chuck Burr, Extension educator in Phelps and Gosper counties.
The project is a three-year education program with major funding from the Nebraska Environmental Trust Fund, Burr said. Center pivot manufacturers--there are four in Nebraska--contributed both cash and in-kind services. UNL is a contributor, as well as the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources.
The program is designed to help irrigators become more efficient with the water that they apply through pivots, Burr said. For example, he said, growers can do a better job during the season by not irrigating corn and soybeans so early.
"It's okay to stress soybeans," he said, "in fact water stress may increase yields if you don't fully irrigate."
Burr also said that stressing corn during the vegetative growth stage will not hurt yields. But once the tassel comes out, it needs to have full water.
Burr would like to see producers deplete some of the soil water during the growing season so the soil can store any rain that falls. At the end of the season, he advises depleting the soil moisture to about 40 percent in the top four-feet of soil because, typically, there is plenty of rainfall to fill that soil profile before the next irrigation season.
Burr said that 2009 is the first year of the program. The five presentations developed for this year include:
--Sprinkler packages. This presentation will help producers select the most efficient sprinklers for their own situations.
--Pumping costs. This presentation will allow the crop grower to decide if the system is using more energy than it should and if it needs to be tested for inefficiencies.
--Nebraska Ag Water Management Demonstration Network. This network uses moisture sensors and an atmometer to keep track of how much water crop is using during the growing season.
--Limited irrigation. Growers will learn about research that reveals methods for producing optimum yields with less water.
--Water Optimizer. This is an Excel-based spreadsheet program that permits producers to plug in their own numbers to determine how best to use irrigation water.
Burr is working with the four pivot manufacturers and their distribution networks. He attends dealer open houses where he gives the presentations.
"So visit with the dealers in your neighborhood and ask if they're going to have an open house," he said.
A UNL website will soon make the presentations available for download and viewing on the producer's own computer.

Inherit The Wasteland Lyrics - Earth Crisis
Destroyed in the hands of the deranged.
Mankind's will has been imposed upon the earth as though we
were alone and if our actions had no consequences.
Man crushes all that bars the way on this path to annihilation.
Taking for themselves while the other inhabitant's
lives are given no consideration.
Inherit the wasteland! Spilled oil contaminates the sea.
Inherit the wasteland! Poisons fill the atmosphere.
Inherit the wasteland! Toxins infect the ground. Inherit the
wasteland! Deforestation scars the earth.
The rainforests burn. Countless animals die.
We must regain control or there will
be nothing left to save. The harmony of nature,
twisted into dischordance. Left to die in the aftermath of their destructive
sightlessness. Time is running, time is running,
time is running ... Time is running out.

JONES STUDIO® Crepe Sheath Dress 21 21
The perfect little black dress The last time I bought a perfect black dress, I wore it for 12 years!! I am hoping this one will last as long. It's timeless and you can dress it up or down. October 22, 2014
I read that the dress ran small on top I ordered one size larger than I normally wear because a reviewer said it ran small on top. I like the looseness but need to make a few alterations. The reviewer was correct if one is larger on top. it is a lovely design and very comfortable too. It looks alot more expensive than it is . September 19, 2014
Love this dress. Fit perfect and received many compliments. September 9, 2014
Decent but way too small For the price, this dress seemed to be of decent quality. But I packed it for return immediately upon attempting to try it on. I couldn't get it even around my shoulders without stress. I wanted to have a simple black dress to wear in various situations but unfortunately, this wasn't it for me. August 24, 2014

a player myself, I am aware of how much the set-up process has
to do with the overall sound, responsiveness, and playability of
a banjo. I understand that each player has a unique playing style
and a certain tone they are after. Once you have chosen the wood,
rim size, and tone ring, the choice of head-type, tailpiece, and
bridge wood will fine-tune the tone of the instrument.
below are the set-up options available - I look forward to working
with you to help customize your instrument.
Cast bronze Romero tailpiece. Read more about our tailpieces here.
Kershner-style - An excellent adjustable tailpiece
No-knot - Simple tailpiece most widely used for old-time banjos
Depending on the sound and stability you're after, we have both synthetic and natural heads available. Generally, we like the overall tone on skin heads better but really enjoy the stability that synthetic heads offer in a variety of climates.
Standard synthetic heads available: Renaissance, white, frosted, Fyberskin.
Natural heads available: calf skin, goat skin.
Depending on your playing style, you may want a scoop. A scoop allows you to play more freely over the highest frets on the neck. Some examples of scoops.
String options include include steel, synthetic nylon or gut strings, all in a variety gauges.
Jason first saw a five-hole type construction ten years ago from the banjo maker Monty Hendricks. After years of experimenting with different woods and construction types, we've decided that this three foot, five-hole design sounds better than every other variation we've tried, including single foot bridges. Our bridges are made in our shop using submerged maple; every bridge is compensated for improved intonation. Bridges are for sale separately from our banjos.

I've been tinkering with different Jund setups lately. The theme of this deck is to constantly kill any threat that appears, using Lightning Prowess on a deathtoucher to ping creatures to death, use Olivia Voldaren to ping and steal creatures and then try to get some damage in from time to time.
Thrill-Kill Assassin Lightning Prowess
It really is just a jumble of bits and pieces that fit the theme, i would like to be able to use mutilate but i think it'll hurt me just as much as the enemy now that Lashwrithe is gone.
Sideboard explained
2x Naturalize: There isnt any artifact/enchantment removal mainboard, so this just goes here.
3x Huntmaster of the Fells Flip: I just put there here just in case, will have to see how the meta unfolds to see if he goes into the mainboard, stays in the side or goes altogether.
1x Lightning Prowess + 1x Thrill-Kill Assassin: In some matches they cant do much about this combo.
2x Flames of the Firebrand: Can clear away little guys, like Gravecrawler and then i can use Deathrite Shaman to exile the little guys if needed.
3x Slaughter Games: When control decks are just too annoying, we remove either their control or their biggest kill.
2x Rix Maadi Guildmage: Can be good at killing off enemy blockers that are able to regenerate (see Lotleth Troll)
1x Golgari Charm: Useful vs weenies or someone with field wipes.
Swapped Bonfire of the Damned for Mizzium Mortars.
For 2 mana i can deal 4 damage to a creature. In order to deal 4 damage to each creature bonfire needs 5 mana and mortars need 6, so its about even, except you can wait for the opportune moment to cast mortars.
hey i like this idea but as a friendly note are you aware that you have 62 cards in this deck?
Just a quick note: don't forget that Lightning Prowess gives haste, so you can, with five mana, surprise drop an assassin and a prowess to kill something immediately.
-1 Desecration Demon -1 Murder ?
This deck has an interesting theme. Looks fun to play. +1 =)
Ambush Viper also fits that theme. But I would cut your card count down to 60, unless you're playing Battle of Wits .
I like the idea...i had the same some time ago...+1 for me
check my deck e give suggestions please!
just wondering why not do Fervor instead of Lightning Prowess
@pappasmurf91: Lightning Prowess lets his deathtouch creatures ping other creatures to death. The haste is just an added bonus, but not the main idea.
a i missed the fact that it made the creature deal damage 1 damage. my bad. sweet combo then. feel like there should be more DT or lifelink than? maybe Deadly Recluse ? help with flying and save a few cents on the switch. just tossing up an idea for ya.
Yeh i have thought of Deadly Recluse , but i dont want to overload on the combo, just have it in there to maybe go off as it is very fragile, but at the same time it creates a threat out of nothing that may soak a kill spell, and if it does then i get to keep my fatties most likely
Since Lightning Prowess does create such a good combo with Deathtouch creatures, I would recommend having it as a 4 of, along with at least 12(ish?) Deathtouch creatures.
@Jarrheadd0: he also has Ulvenwald Tracker s, which combos almost as well with deathtouch creatures as Lightning Prowess , but also combos well with the number of fatties he's running as his main offense.
I think he's going for a little more variety in how he removes stuff, making it much harder for his opponent to sideboard for game two.
Exactly what snotskie said, plus i dont like relying on a specific combo too much, it makes the deck extremely fragile, but just having that combo as a possibility might work out really well
Well, couldn't you just use 4 of both? The more possible pieces to a combo, the better.
Perhaps i can put a couple in the sideboard if the combo works too well, but i think if i focus too much on getting the combo to be reliable i will loose my other forms of control / survival, sort of like too much of a good thing
That is exactly right Toxonic and the more options you can have in a deck the better it becomes, also the more overwhelmed your opponents will become. I like the deck and it seems to be a great deck. Havve you considered running Rakdos's Return I like it slighty better than Bonfire Of the Damned I can Always board wipe or clear a field but emptiyng your opponents hand can be highly devastating, Also Shreiking affliction is a great combo piece with Rakdos's Return Make your opponent suffer for playing with no hand as well as force them to keep cards in there hand it causes a mental lock do I do this or that. either way +1 from me I love the Deck. Check out my Rakdos, Riders Of Hell, I assure you, you won't be disapointed.
yo, use blood artist. that shit will fuck peoples day up. trust me :)
Nightshade peddler with thundermaw hellkite's etb ability will devastate opponents using fliers.
@OFABass I was considering Blood Artist , but im unsure how effective he would be overall. I know he would hurt my opponent a lot but so do most of my other creatures, except that they also provide removal/control.
@gheridarigaaz I know giving Thundermaw Hellkite deathtouch would destroy a fliers deck, but if i was up against a zombie deck then the peddler would be completely useless. Maybe i can give him a spot in the sideboard, because he teams up nicely with Olivia Voldaren and Lightning Prowess also.
maybe -2 Desecration Demon +2 Rakdos, Lord of Riots... Desecration Demon , Olivia Voldaren and Thundermaw Hellkite all would be out much faster with him . you would then be able to play more than one fatty on your next turn and for an opponent with only 1 removal spell in hand that can win you the game. i like this deck a lot though.+1
Or you could combine Izzet Staticaster with Nightshade Peddler in RUG colors.

At about 6 a.m. on May 30, three unidentified men ambushed Cayona, a radio commentator for the local station DXLL, as he left home on his motorcycle to host a morning broadcast. Cayona died on the spot from four gunshot wounds, including two to the face. The assailants, all identified as young males, fled the scene.
Cayona was an outspoken commentator who often criticized local politicians, the military, and Muslim separatist guerrillas. The journalist had recently received several death threats, including an on-air threat that was phoned in by Abu Sabaya, spokesman for the Islamic guerrilla group Abu Sayyaf. Although Cayona reported the threats to station officials, he was not escorted by a bodyguard on the morning of the attack.
Cayona is the second DXLL staffer to be murdered in recent years. In 1998, Rey Bancayrin, another outspoken commentator for the station, was actually killed on the air when two unidentified gunmen burst into the studio and shot him dead.

Weather Blog: Since Fredericksburg resides "in the seam" between the Richmond VA and Washington DC media markets this blog is a look at the weather from a Fredericksburg-centric point of view.
The sun is back but so is the cold air
The surface low pressure that crossed the Great Lakes yesterday and dragged a cold front across the area opened the door for another brief shot of cold Canadian air and today's weather is the result. Brilliant sunshine, gusty northwest winds, and a high temperature that will barely touch 40 degrees today all serve to remind us that winter can still exert its influence on the 'Burg in February. Tomorrow will bring more sunshine and only slightly warmer temperatures but the wind should lessen as the day progresses.
Then another system approaches the region from the west. This next system will dump heavy snow across the Central Plains states today and tomorrow as it gathers strength. With cold air still in place over the 'Burg any precipitation that falls Thursday night into Friday morning could create some frozen stuff and that is exactly what the NWS Sterling forecast graphics this morning indicate. However, I am scratching my head at that forecast as I've checked five different forecast models this morning – including the vaunted European – and I can't find any evidence of precipitation entering the picture around Fredericksburg until mid-morning Friday. The NWS forecast has precipitation breaking out sometime after 1 Friday morning and creating the conditions for sleet and freezing rain that would wreak havoc on the morning commute. Thus my recommendation is to pay attention to the forecast for Friday morning as it may change between now and then. (Of course, wearing pajamas backwards and flushing ice cubes down the toilet Thursday evening may improve the odds from the schoolkids' perspective…)
Saturday looks damp and yucky but sunshine and warmer temperatures Sunday may salvage at least part of the weekend. That nice weather will likely carry over into Monday before yet another in the current train of storm systems approaches the 'Burg. The good news with this progressive weather pattern is that our soil moisture, lakes, and rivers are being replenished after last fall's dry weather. Keep that in mind if you get tired of cloudy skies…

UPDATE 7/16/13 @ 11:25 p.m.
SCIOTO COUNTY, Ohio (WSAZ) -- A 19-year-old from Chesapeake, Ohio was convicted on multiple drug charges Tuesday and sentenced to nine years in prison, according to Scioto County Prosecutor Mark Kuhn
A Scioto County Common Pleas Court jury deliberated for an hour before convicting Chelsey L. Barry of possession of heroin, trafficking heroin conspiracy to traffic heroin and tampering with evidence.
Troopers with Ohio Highway Patrol stopped Barry on Feb. 28 as she and three male passengers were driving south on U.S. 23 near Houston Hollow Road. Troopers noticed the smell of marijuana coming from the car, and Barry later surrendered 56 grams of heroin she had been hiding during the drive from Detroit to Huntington, W.Va.
Prosecutors say that Barry claimed one of the passengers gave her the drugs to conceal and transport.
There are currently outstanding warrants for the three passengers in the car.
Just after 12:30 Thursday morning, troopers arrested 19-year-old Chelsey Barry of Chesapeake, Ohio after stopping her car for a moving violation and vehicle defect on U.S 23 in Lucasville. Barry was charged with possession of heroin.
Troopers say Barry admitted to possessing approximately 70 grams of heroin. They say the heroin has an estimated street value of about $10,000.
Wednesday night, troopers stopped James Earl Brown, 46, of Muskegon, MI. on U.S. 23 near Lucasville.
Brown was charged with felony possession of heroin and oxycodone.
Troopers say they seized 122 grams of heroin and 270 oxycodone pills with an approximate combined street value was $26,400.
Both people were taken to the Scioto County Jail.

More reviews by hellokatie1618
I'm on my second bottle of this. Neutrogena's makeup remover was favorite because it didn't sting my eyes and it worked pretty well for the price. But for some reason the company kept making the bottle smaller and smaller and more expensive. So i bought equate's version and it is a pretty good dupe!
So I'm really diggin this liquid makeup remover, it may not be my all time fave, Lancôme's Bifacil but it comes close at less than half the price. It's never stung my eyes & I've never broken out from it. Haven't tried the Neutrogena one but I loved the Equate equivalent wipes & decided I'd try this. It does a fantastic job IMO, first I spread a tiny bit of Ponds Cold cream to really emulsify my eyeliner & wp mascara, then I just soak a cotton pad with this stuff, let it sit over my eye a good 30sec-1min & this gets it right off without any rubbing/scrubbing <-- I hate doing that! This also does a good job at removing lip colors, especially stains. The smell is not a big deal honestly, & the packaging is whatever. It's affordable for anyone to try out, definitely gonna keep repurchasing!
HG makeup remover! Takes off ALL my eyeshadow and mascara with just a few swipes. It's super affordable and works just as good as the Nuetrogena Eye Makeup Remover. Will definitely keep repurchasing this.
This product works great, removes even waterproof eye makeup. Love it, just as good as Neutrogena. Don't waste your money on the brand names, off brandS work just the same people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GET WITH IT

This eye-makeup remover is Walmart's version of Neutrogena's dual-phase remover. It removes all my eye makeup without having to pull on the skin. The price is great and it works IMO even better than Neutrogena.
This works just as good as the name brand removers. It easily removes eye shadow and waterproof mascara. One bottle lasts me two months. Excellent product for the price.
This is just as good as Neutrogena's eye makeup remover and is a cheap alternative. I apply it to a cotton ball and it easily takes off my makeup and waterproof mascara. I definitely recommend this.
Really doesn't help remove makeup. You have to keep rubbing and even then it wont remove everything.
This is a great comparison to the Neutrogena Oil-Free Eyemakeup Remover and much more affordable. This does a great job at removing my eyeshadow and waterproof mascara. I've gone through two bottles of these and will be repurchasing again.
Great product. Liquid makeup remover works so much better than the wipes do! I've been using this to remove my eye makeup everyday for a few years. It takes makeup off so quickly and easily, although I do have to rub too much sometimes. The product doesn't sting or irritates my eyes, and it comes off easily as well after it's done it's job. Great price as well.

The unregistered Titan Tornado, flown by a student pilot/co-owner, was observed on an approach to a private grass strip. A witness reported that as the airplane crossed over a hedge row, the nosed pitched up, and the airplane began to climb. At about 150 feet, the nose of the airplane dropped, and the airplane descended and struck the ground at a 45 degree nose down angle. The airplane had been assembled and flown for about 80 hours by Titan Aircraft, before it was purchased by the pilot as an ultralight with a 10 gallon fuel tank and without an airworthiness certificate. Examination of the airplane revealed no preimpact failure of the airframe or engine. No maintenance records were available for the airplane. The student pilot had received his student pilot certificate in October 1994, and had received about 10 hours of dual instruction. He did not solo, and no record of recent flight experience was available. A purchase agreement revealed that the airplane had been sold as a 'single place, ready to fly, used aircraft as is.'
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:
