Promotion Celebration [Terrenus Military]
LastLight posted a topic in OOC RP ThreadsPromotion Celebration The Terran military is hosting a promotion celebration for several soldiers that have recently risen in the ranks. All members of the military, even those not promoted in some time, are invited to attend. There will be food, a disc jockey that'll rattle the walls, a wonderfully designed party environment with soft lights swirling about in artificial fog, pool tables and a phrase game that will encourage guests to mingle with their brothers and sisters in arms. This exercise, though celebratory at heart, is being carried out with the expectation of team building among military personnel. The objective is for the guests to form lasting bonds with fellow soldiers whom they have not yet met. The hope is that this will improve communication among military personnel outside of missions as well. Celebrated personnel are as follows, Cadmium Metireal ( @supernal ), Barrett ( @amenities ), Anouk Enouk ( @Radioactive ) and Nur the Feral ( Me! ) And this is the venue: Military Base #34 Celebration Event Phrase Game The celebration will be accompanied by a phrase game that encourages IC social interaction with as many other guests as possible. Below are listed several social activities, or triggers, that must be performed in-character in order to be presented with the possibility ( dice roll ) of acquiring one or two letters for the phrase. When a guest has successfully acquired all seven letters, they win the prize. The phrase for the event is Suujali, which has a total of seven letters in it. This means that winning guests must, at the minimum, perform at least seven of the social triggers listed below. Depending on how well guests roll, they might unlock more than one letter per social trigger, but no more than three at any time. Hidden Game Details on a possible second game will be withheld and can only be unlocked if certain circumstances are met. Triggers Introducing yourself to someone new. Asking what someone's hobbies are. Agreeing to work ( do a military mission ) with someone at the celebration. Dancing with someone new. Proposing a toast. ( Can happen once per player ). Exchanging contact information. Inviting someone outside for a more personal interaction. Asking the DJ to play a specific dance track. Gather a few newly acquainted colleagues for a picture. Interview anyone who is celebrating a promotion using a video camera. ( Same person can't be interviewed twice. ) Give someone a home gift (as this would require foreknowledge of gift-giving as a trigger it is fine for soldiers to come bearing small gifts). Inviting someone out to a social meeting outside of work. Introduce someone you know to someone else you know. Establish a resource channel with another guest ( make personally crafted equipment available to one another ). Sing a song for the audience. Rules Only Terran military personnel are allowed to participate in the celebration. This is a social gathering. If physical conflict occurs, it shouldn't grow to such a degree that it overpowers the original premise of the thread; the military police will escort you out. Although there will be no hard word number cap, we do suggest players try and stick to a 200 word max. This'll make the thread easier to respond to and also make it easier to meet the phrase requirements. Whenever one of the trigger conditions are met, players will roll a d100 in the dice rolling thread and the rewards are as follows: 1-60 = 1 letter, 61-80 = 2 letters, 81-100 = 3 letters. The results should be included in each post and once a player has obtained a total of seven letters to complete the phrase, the game ends. Only one trigger per post is allowed. Prize The winner of the phrase game will be able to choose Access to one set of equipment from a higher rank or different unit Object class amount of any Standard or Government material Letter Track Xanathi Maira: 0 Cadmium Metireal: 1 Delistair Paige: 1 Nur The Feral: 1 Other than these essentials, I'll note that there is also a loose posting order. Furthermore, interested parties can post as soon as they're done reading this post! The venue is already up and I dare say it's a shame that it has been since September of last year with no activity. Let's change that. Any questions or chit chatter can be posted here.

Intimidation Game (OOC)
Tyler posted a topic in OOC RP ThreadsOkay, so this will be our OOC chat area for Mission 2. I will work on starting the RP itself once I have OOC chats for both missions up. Here's our cast for this one (this doubles as our posting order): @Tyler as The Man in the Suit/GM/Narrator/NPCs @LightningBolt as Dahlia Gloomwood @Seraphina Jeanne as Hyeok Kyoungjong @Abigail666 as Persephone @PandaHat as Gisela Valance If any of you have some questions, please ask so I can answer them! Also, in case I don't do a good enough job of explaining it in the opening post, I imagine all of your characters were recruited as they were passing through towns or villages in the relative vicinity of Norkotia. So places like Hell's Gate, Langley Keep, maybe Blairville, and any number of unnamed towns in-between them all. If you guys are curious where Norkotia is on the map, it's situated on Sidereal Lake in Terrenus.

More Important is the Journey OOC
Cheezeegriff posted a topic in OOC RP ThreadsMore Important is the Journey follows the travels of intrepid adventurers with various goals. It's about learning to get along, facing challenges together, sharing meals and adventure together despite one's differences. We'll pass through beautiful landscapes and through harsh and pleasant weather, inspect the occasional peculiarity like old castle ruins or druid circles, isolated villages and prosperous farmsteads. But mostly it'll just be our characters sharing a journey. Because the journey is more important than the destination. Without the journey, what do we learn? Cast of Characters Cheezeegriff as Jon Kowal, AKA Jack, a sellsword with a thing for animals. Jotnotes as Priscilla the runecrafter, an escapee from some nasty individuals. Mickey Flash as Michelee Subar , an old cat that looks like a young cat that looks like a human. Mag as Arzada, a female nostalgic and lonesome vampire with a lust for travel. Currently inactive due to busy life schedule and unconscious PC. Withdrawn/Inactive Players (listed here for easy return to active) Tia Dalma as Kinaaz Achlys, a fairy from your worst nightmares (or dreams, if you're into that sort of thing). Missing. Last seen a few days before the pirate attack. Presumed to have flown to safety or dead, or joined pirates. JaviD'Arcana as Yonx, a blind samurai looking for the Samurai Way. But not with his eyes. Missing. Last seen injured fighting with pirates. Presumed dead. The Blex as Ronin, a security samurai who hates knives and bullets. Missing. Last seen fighting pirates. Presumed dead. Rin as Vex, a demon with as many weapons as tattoos and three belts besides. Failed to get on the airship. Important Links >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Link to the RP thread: <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Link to the original interest check We're playing on Genesaris. Read about it here. Our starting location is Dragonsoul Summit, a land ruled by monsters. Eventually however we will move on from this location. Our final destination is Vdara, a journey of more than 12000km, or just under the circumference of the earth! Bring a few spare pairs of socks. Posting Order Flexible. This means you can post in any order, so long as it adds to the richness of the story for everyone. For instance: if you find yourself online at the time as another player, feel free to have a bit of back and forth over a few posts each where it fits into the story. But in the event of major incidents make sure everyone gets to have a go. Post Length Post length is irrelevant. If you want to write swirling prose of of floral epicness, feel free. If you only want to write a few sentences, that's also fine. I personally prefer writing that gets to the point. Not simple or boring. Just succinct. But you won't get reprimanded for spending two paragraphs writing about the way your character's hair reflects the dazzling moonlight. Inactivity Policy If you plan to be inactive for more than a week please let me know on this thread. Otherwise if a person is inactive and this is holding up the RP, my policy is to work around it. For instance if my character asked your character (Percy) where you got those scars, and you don't reply and a few other things happen I want to interact with, I might say, "Percy paused with a thoughtful look. Jon left her to think and walked over to Reginald to make sure he didn't miss out on any raspberry pie." After a couple of weeks I will mark the thread as semi-open and bump the interest check thread in the water cooler. If you come back you'll still be allowed back in. We can handle one more player if need be. It just won't be marked as open again until a couple of players become inactive.
ooc Ruin has come to Ashville
Jotnotes posted a topic in OOC RP ThreadsThis is the OOC thread for the aforementioned Ruin has come to Ashville thread. With this in mind, direct all OOC comments and questions related to the RP to this thread. Above me, in the spoiler, is the posting order for the time being. I believe that I am being more than fair, giving everyone seven days to post, each. This gives you all the time in the world to post, and it also allows me to say, without hesitation, that if you don't post, we will skip and forget about you. Too many threads get held up because people slack on their posts. Not this one. If you get forgotten, the thread will make up for it easily, and it will move on without you. So...post in three days, yeah? Also, if any one of you wants to argue the posting order, let me know. If you think you'd like to post before someone else/after someone, we might be able to arrange that.
Cleaning Up the Mess (OOC)
Grubbistch posted a topic in OOC RP ThreadsHere is the link to the IC thread. Post at your leisure as I do not wish to rush anybody. Any questions you have please direct them here and be sure to follow both this and the IC thread to keep track of any updates or changes. First off I would like to thank everyone who signed up to be here. I want to make sure we all have fun and have a good time, which is mainly why this is up. Having a clear line of communication I find is vital to making a thread successful, as well as making sure everyone is on the same page for an idea. If you know there is going to be a conflict with your schedule or some other circumstance that will prevent you from posting for an extended period of time, know you will not be judged for letting us know about it in this thread. Real life will always be more important than a hobby, and I would never make someone feel bad about having to back out for personal reasons. Now as my first question here let's start off with what kind of reward is your character looking for? Do they want money, land or some kind of favor only a powerful political faction could grant? The more information we have about your character's motivation the better we can come to a mutual understanding of what everyone wants out of this thread. Links to the info for House Aetherion and their religion of Astra Terra will be up soon in case you would like access to that lore as well. Good luck and have fun everyone!

OOC: A series of unfortunate effects
jaistlyn posted a topic in OOC RP ThreadsIC: Background Some of you may remember, or have participated in the Maddening Mists event (omg!! It's 1.5 years old!!). With the wrap up of the last spire at the Gaian Academy, we finally have all the codes of the 5 spires! You can try solving the puzzle, it will please @supernal's geeky mind A-anyway, regardless, though the Terrenus mainland is now mostly free from the maddening mists, something is happening in Yh'mi. The mists from the Whitewoods are thicker than ever, even enveloping the Broken Plains. Yh'mi creatures are driven mad by the mist, even attacking their own, thus suggesting that this is not an effect of Yh'mi itself, but something external. The paladins of the Order of the White Hand regard the threat of the growing mist as the same as/even greater than Yh'mi itself, and they are taking emergency measures to find the source of the thickening mists and destroy it. RNG rules 1) Roll a d100 for the effect, and d3 for the number of turns. 2) You only post your roll in the OOC right before your turn (You can roll right now if you want, but don't reveal the results. So that there is no metagaming, intentional or not, by other players) 3) Your character is not conscious that s/he is affected, until s/he recovers. You cannot self-heal. 4) Affliction for one turn is considered as from the start of your current turn to the start of your next turn. This might be relevant due to other people's interactions with your character. 5) Volentia and Nieve can heal one character each during their turns, either physically or mentally. (Provided that plot-wise, they are in a state to do that.) Everyone decides who should be healed before each of their respective turns. When afflicted by: Berserk, Amnesia and Loss of concentration, they cannot heal (the person chosen will not be healed). Exhaustion, the healing will not be as effective (e.g. only cutting the duration of an effect by one turn instead of two). Nightmare and Phobia, they cannot heal if they are near enemies. Magic chaos.. that might be bad news... General Rules Loosely 3-day skip, you're fine if you give a heads-up if you need more than 3 days. There is the possibility of character death, but as always in my RPs, it is up to the player to decide if a character dies or is just badly injured and out of commission. This RNG system is experimental, so I may do some balancing along the way, please bear with me if I need to do that, my aim is to make this as fun as possible!

Beyond All Mortal Ken OOC [Special Jotsy Edition]
Jotnotes posted a topic in OOC RP ThreadsHello there! If you're reading this, then either you have nothing else going on at the moment, you sort of caught a glance of it on that side bar thing on the main page, or most likely you're actually a part of the thread, or looking to become a part of the thread! Regardless, this is the OOC Section of the thread. As usual, everything not spoken in-character, as well as any questions, comments or announcements regarding the thread itself, will end up in this thread. Remember to follow it for updates and additional information. I'll also be supplying a series of links to other pages on this document as well. These links are meant to supply you, the writers, with additional resources that you might find useful. Maybe. The Original Beyond all Mortal Ken Interest Check as written by the lovely and talented @Chouette I have yet to hear back from Chou since my takeover of the thread, but he has made his interest in the project evident even now, and I hope that he chooses to work closely alongside me during this thread. I would value his input. My revamped Interest Check It's very likely that neither of these will be too useful for you, but they're here if you need them. The Thread <<< Posts should go here! The Terrenus Faction Civil War Thingy OOC Whether or not you are fully involved in the whole matter, this thread is both relevant and interesting, as this thread ultimately serves to introduce a faction into the civil war. Lastly, I am going to mention this once, I think. The current posting order is nonexistant; I need a first, or second post from everybody looking to be involved in the thread. You have a total of two weeks to get the post in, so there's no reason not to put something in there if you're interested in writing with us. At the moment, it is Tuesday, March 13, so you folks have until March 27 to get your posts done! Following that, we will either arrange a posting order of some kind, or determine how otherwise the thread will move along. And that's about it! Below this I'll be listing everyone who expressed an interest in the thread, in order to get us all on the same page. Thanks for taking the time to read this!

The Unofficial Official Valucre List of Playable Character Races
Jotnotes posted a topic in Profile DatabaseIt's finally here, after all this time! [Canned Applause] Alright, but before I get started, I have to make a brief disclaimer here for all the newbies looking at this right now. Take a second and read this next bit, because it's incredibly important. DISCLAIMER: The following list is composed entirely of races other users have already made characters of, and as such this list is always growing. Additionally, this list is not official, and not fully inclusive. You are by no means expected to pick from this list when making characters, nor do you need to conform to this list in any way. This list is not official. This list is not official. Additionally, I am hoping to constantly add more races to this list as I go, so if at any point you would like a race submitted to this page for others to consider using, then by all means go ahead and send me a private message. I'm on here almost every day, and I reply quickly, so it won't be hard to see something you made end up on this page. Also, a tremendous thanks to @supernal for not only supporting this idea before I even started working on it, but also constantly checking in with me. Props to that guy. The following document is an ongoing list of many races that appear in Valucre as player characters and NPC's. They have been documented here for ease of access and identification, and to help new and veteran users find new ideas for characters quicker. The list updates often (hopefully) and I will attempt to frequently interact with users in order to add new races that I find interesting. Please, use this list to your own discretion, and remember that this serves as more of a guideline instead of stiff rules. Do as you please, and make a character you're happy with. If you would like to submit a player race of your own, please feel free to PM me with the following formatting. Race Name: (Official and Colloquial) Basic Physical Description of the Race: (Things like size, weight, body type, etc; are they furries? Zombies?) Age of Race: (How long has the race been around for?) Place of Origin: (If they're indigenous to Val, just specify what continent they came from. Do they share any common ancestors with other races on Val? Are they from another world?) Character Sheets for Reference I am fairly lenient in terms of composition, so as long as all of this information exists somewhere for me to find, I will be satisfied.
ooc King's Feast Chatter [Participants & Gamblers Only]
paradigm posted a topic in OOC RP ThreadsThis thread is for any questions, concerns or discourse you may have about the King's Feast Event. I'm still planning on having the event go live this evening. There will be a 'Rankings' Thread pinned at the top of the Cosanastre Board for you to keep track of rules, points and any necessary links. (I'll fill the links in as they are posted.) Before/As we get started I have something of a survey for all our hunters. Links to the items can be found in the Rankings Thread. Note: This survey will help us determine what Artifacts to put on hold. If you're currently questing for an artifact (thread must have begun prior to Oct. 31st) you have until the end of the event (JAN 1) to wrap the thread up. There's no wrong answers and no choices will be removed as a possible prize due to low popularity. This is to ensure that you, the individual, get the specific prize you want when you win. Rank the items in the order that you'd want them if you win the Hunt. (I'll use my own order as an example. If you have suggestions) 1. Class IV or below Alterion Artifact 2. Tellus Seed 3. Custom Artifact/Prize 4. Hunter's License 5. Notoriety Market Credit 6. Familiar (any creature Class IV or below) 7. Participant Suggestion (Two for Glen Coco. You go, Glen Coco!)
A Pirate's Life Ain't So Bad
Ataraxy posted a topic in OOC RP ThreadsAaarrrrggg yeeee mateys! Who wants to join me on a voyage of the seas! We will travel the world finding treasure and causing trouble however we like >:) If that sounds like a plan, sign up or my crew aboard the Silver Swan and the voyage for our first treasure will begin! Location: Ursa Madeum Premise: A new pirate crew is formed under Captain Fiora Pendragon who sets sail for the first time. Armed with nothing but their mundane weapons and a treasure map, the crew set sail from Casper toward the Pirate Cove in Ursa Madeum to find the rumored Map of Artifacts. Supposedly this map could be used to accurately track down powerful artifacts across Valucre. I didn't feel like doing a whole big thing this time because hey, what kind of pirate really plans or details and shit? Let's go find some treasure! Requirements: I'm looking or characters that are Novice- Mid level experience and skill. Anything higher than that I feel would take away from the general adventurousness of this thread. Be open for really loose posting orders and speed. I have a habit of posting really fast and then really slow. We can start with a strict order and then loosen it up as we become more comfortable. The Crew! Captain Fiora Pendragon (I'll post a character sheet sometime soon.

Mostly to taint Yuma and make her into the Black Heart Mirror Witch. Also you can play a male, woman or even the ore itself to trick Yuma. You can even with my approval, choose Yuma's darker appearance should she eat the black heart mirror ore I'm trying to sabotage the heroes attempts in Talia; The Breaking of Iblis, link here: The Umbral Year, The Beginning of the End I might need a hero to help Vex escape Manah who's now a tainted knight trying to taint Vex and turn him into a monster.

Gehenna Down
Jotnotes posted a topic in The Daily WeeklyTragedy in the skies over Genesaris this week, following the horrific collapse of one of the largest aircraft to ever grace the skies. Earlier this very week, the former gunship turned luxury cruise, the Gehenna, was attacked during its trek across the skies. While the cause is unknown, the effect is nothing short of terrifying. The Gehenna came down hard, eye witnesses claim, just over the mountains between Dragonsoul Summit, where it first took off, and Stormward, where it was expected to land. And yes, there were some eye witnesses, but not many. The ship was last seen airborne over head of Stormward, where unidentified aircraft approached the vessel and began to board it. Though rumors claim that the ship may have been a pirate vessel, no surviving members of the crash have come forward with any positive evidence, as the ship itself has yet to be fully recovered. There are rescue teams in the wings, but given that the vessel has yet to be properly located, no search parties or official rescue has been conducted. The wreckage held over 100 passengers and staff, and it is expected that the majority of the passengers on board may well be somewhere in the wreck as of now, as well as their possessions and belongings, in addition to any precious cargo the Gehenna was carrying at the time. While rescue parties are being formed, it's uncertain how long it will take for official parties to get there, raising many concerns regarding the possibility of looters, raiders and slavers getting there first, and the ever-present threat of hostile wildlife is always a concern in these sorts of situations. More news to follow once the wreckage has been recovered and the survivors identified. (See the Original Thread here) (Feel like helping us finish the thread, or participating in some way? Check the Water Cooler.)
ooc CHAOS
Radioactive posted a topic in OOC RP ThreadsYou find yourself in a dark alley, having followed the instructions on the note you found stuck to your door that morning. You can scarcely make out the silhouette of the man. He's either wearing a mask, or he isn't human. Whatever he is, he doesn't want to be seen. You wouldn't even know it was a man, were it not for the deep voice, which seemed to be distorted by some staticky interference. "Chaos is the path to freedom." He says. You can hear every distorted breath he draws. "Will you serve our order, for the sake of ending order?Perhaps you've stolen, pillaged, or even murdered in the past... Perhaps your life has left a trail of fire and blood everywhere you've been... But this, this is different. This won't be petty crime or even an insane killing spree. This will be a meticulously planned assault on the very institution of society. This will break down the very foundations of law and order in Genesaris, and then the world. Will you serve?" He hands you a small square of paper with a map drawn on it. "Go to the desert, and look for the red door." The criminal syndicate known as Criminal Heathens Against Organized Systems, or CHAOS, is in need of anyone that is weary of law and government strangling the fun out of life. Join us, and help us burn it all down! \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Name: CHAOS Etymology: The name is an acronym, Criminal Heathens Against Organized Sytems, presumably created by the founder. Heraldry: Hierarchy: Ranks- Founder: Unknown (Except to the current Warden) Warden: Rein Heavensent C.O.: The Fumigator @FirePenguinDiscoPanda Lieutenants: {2 spots open} Sergeants: {2 spots open} Class- Assassins: The Fumagator Thieves: Spies: Central Location: Valanian Dessert, on the border of the Red sands. Look for the red door (leading into a small underground bunker). Genesaris Affiliations: — Allies: — Enemies: — Neutral Parties: Agenda: CHAOS is a band of unsavory individuals that, to put it simply, hate organized government, and wish to cause as much chaos as possible. While the main objective of the group is anarchy, the secondary objective is to obtain wealth and power... and use that wealth and power to create more anarchy! Historical: Background: While most of the history is not available to the public, or even to the members, a few things are known for certain. -The founder of CHAOS is a powerful individual that takes great care to keep his/her name a secret. Only the current leader knows who the founder is. -CHAOS is well funded. -Both the Founder and the Warden do recognize the irony of an organized group against organized systems. Means to an end... Rules/Regulations: Considering the goal of the group, they have very few rules. 1. Every perspective member must accomplish a mission given to them by the Warden before membership is considered. Membership will NOT be based on whether or not the mission is accomplished, but HOW the mission is accomplished. (If you put some effort into it, you'll be in. It won't be anything excessively time consuming or difficult) 2. All members must have the CHAOS heraldry tattooed somewhere on their body. The location and size are to the members discretion. 3. Anyone, who has been a member for at least two weeks, can challenge the current Warden for leadership at any time. The leader is decided by mortal combat, in the place and at the time of the challenge. As soon as the challenge is VERBALLY issued, the current leader automatically accepts, and the fight begins. One exception, this cannot happen during a mission (while the mission is ACTIVELY in progress). The fight is to the death. 4. Badasses only. 5. In-house disputes are to be settled, by any means necessary, between missions, and never during missions. 6. Don't talk about fight club...err, CHAOS. 7. All offenses to these rules are CAPITAL offenses. If you break a rule, you might want to start running. Pertinent miscellaneous information: There are a few secret code words that every CHAOS agent will need to have memorized. Upon acceptance, you'll be given these words in private. All missions will be rewarded, either with promotions, useful items, or both. Everyone is assigned a rank and a class, meaning you can be a Lieutenant and a spy, or a Sergeant and an assassin...

Savanna posted a topic in AlternativeOur kingdoms have been at war for centuries, the difference between day and night. Only royal blood had power. I had lightning and water, constantly contradicting myself. I was unable to use my powers because they often crossed. Your sister arrived at my castle asking for a peace treaty. She wanted to make peace, but in order to do that I had possibly marry the King, you. I agreed on it for I was done with the war. Our journey to your kingdom was hard, but even worse was when I was a few minutes away from meeting you. I stood there in my Navy blue dress that hugged tight to my curves, and had a plunging neck line. a thick black line circled my wrist (tattoo like) and twirled up to my shoulder and revealed itself out to my collarbone. My white hair was in a long braid going down my back and a few sticking and covering some of my blue eyes that stick out because of the dress. I was the embodiment of water but chose to use it or let anyone know. You on the other hand were the Embodiment of fire and I would lie if I said I wasn't afraid of you. I followed the servant as she led my two head guards and I, walking into your huge, red brick, dimmed room. "Sorry to interfere with your bath, your majesty. We have some guests, Princess Phaedra, from Litide. She is here to discuss the peace treaty," she said nervously, for you hated it when you're disturbed. Kik- Fxck._.fxxlingz 😉
the Lunaris Praetorium.
dvsn posted a topic in KalopsiaOVERVIEW The Lunaris Praetorium is the theocratic government of Kalopsia governing all surrounding lands under it's unified legislation. It is in this world that all races and walks of life, immortal and not, can coexist in a utopia of perpetual equality. From the ashes of nothingness it appeared overnight, the Citadel of Animus towering over the peerless constructions both old and new, almost as created by the hand of Zaratras, the Valor Star himself. It is here that the mysterious lifestone known as Voltia is regulated throughout all of Renovatio, allowing any and all the power to weave their spirits into magical splendor whether to bring destruction to evil or life to those in need. According to the Renovatian Census Bureau, the population of the Kalopsia province is around 20,000,000 (capital: 400k); with an equal unregistered amount of all races from across Renovatio and beyond. In this land, origins do not matter, all that does is your registration in the Lunaris Praetorium in accordance with the Covenant of Anima. key terms; lunaris praetorium, kalopsia, zaratras, voltia, renovatio, citadel of animus, covenant of anima. GEOGRAPHY Unlike the world that once existed in the same space prior, the ever shifting lands of Kalopsia are a wonder to behold. Every season the land mass dramatically shifts under the pressure of anima cascading from the eternal slumber of Zaratras who is the lifeblood of Kalopsia itself. The result is the appearance of many mystical wonders, land masses, and even enigmatic ruins that may have never existed. According to the Apocrypha of Eumeria, this is a phenomenon that warps worlds, places, and things into, and out of, Kalopsia constantly changing. The Lunaris Praetorium itself however is a series of seven pillars known as Titans as they rest on the back of spawns of Zaratras who appear as nothing more than landmasses to those unable to feel the lifeblood beneath. Each of the tremendously large land-masses are connected by light-vector bridges powered by Voltica technology and adorned by golden rings at either side intricately linked endlessly. The seven Titans are Baal, Rahab, Hesiod, Levant, Ashur, Gila, and Tiamat. key terms; anima, apocrypha of eumeria, voltica CLIMATE As complicated as the land masses surrounding the capital too is the ever changing climate. One region may be in a cycle of perpetual winter, while another may follow the usual cycles of Renovatian weather. This is an important factor in how The Lunaris Praetorium governs the region as will be outlined below, in tandem with the ever changing geography. CULTURE In Kalopsia, your worth is governed by your purpose designated by choice and design. While there are minor exceptions to those with gifts in one area or another (some things being tailored only to specific biological, or mental faculties, i.e sports) the Praetorium's registration system is essential in allowing someone who has entered Kalopsia, whether living at the capital of Lunaris, or in one of the many villages and cities outside, to follow their passion and dreams. Therefore the gap between the aristocratic elite and the poor being eliminated as everyone, regardless of what they chose to do or pursue, is compensated more than enough. While there are minor political issues, primary as far as the Praetor and the Ignatius Council goes, the enriched culture of Lunaris' high-technology, high-magicka society seems to leave most who reside within Kalopsia happy. key terms; praetor, ignatius council. PARKS AND RECREATION tba. GOVERNMENT AND NATIONAL SECURITY The Praetor— Eternally and infinite, the ruler is chosen as the vestige of Zaratras to lead the theocratic government and the world beyond. The current Praetor is none other than Virtrius himself. The Celestial Vanguard— The most talented and powerful warriors from across Renovatio aspire to become a part of the Celestial Vanguard that knows few equal. Much about them rests in enigma, and rumor has it that one of them alone holds the power of an overlord capable of reducing cities to ash by their lonesome. Only the most elite qualify to enter their ranks, and even fewer can learn the mystical arts that they hold, directly descending from Zaratras himself. BORDER 𒀯𒀳— The official military of The Lunaris Imperium and Kalopsia. They use particularly powerful Voltica technology known as Triggers and Voltia itself to protect the kingdom from any threats foreign and domestic. 100,000 of them occupy the capital prepared to depart at a moments notice. The Crow— They exist as extensions of PRIDE who have jurisdiction over the surrounding lands and beyond. They borrow many of their teachings and have transformed them into their own. The few that exist are rumored to be on-par with the Headmaster's due to their combination of arts and Voltia in tandem.

He was chosen to be the leader of the Mission because he had served the people of China and his fellow missionaries in a spirit of love, humility, and self-discipline. He was also a man of deep prayerfulness. He believed, like Hudson Taylor before him, that "it is possible to move men, through God, by prayer alone." "Patient, persevering prayer," wrote Mr. Hoste, "plays a more vital and practical part in the development of the Mission's work than most people have any idea of."

I was posting in the thread "national defense authroiztaion act" and it occured to me that this measure is a means for the US government to at least maintain its country's freedom from radical islamic terrorists. Im not saying that this paranoia is the right way to do this at all, but maybe the US government thinks it is the lesser of two evils. But thats not the whole picture.
The problem starts with the US being a democratic nation - represtants to the government are democartically elected. This creates a problem that they have to please the people, or else they wont get elected. When it doesnt interfere in foreign matters, the US governements gets blamed for letting cruel despots take "democracy" and capitalism out from the hands of innocent citizens. When it does interfere, it arms people who then become a threat to their own country - and to the rest of the world. Case in point: the US government armed Afghanistan to reistst against Russian communism and the armed Afghans became the Taliban. Other examples would include Egyptian Presidant Ossni Mubarack, Iraqi president Saddam Hussein, and Libyan dictator Muammar Khaddafi being thrown over in favor of democartically elected governments. And when democratic elections in these countries are organized who wins the elections? Islamic parties. This is the heart of the problem. The middle east is just filled with Islamists who are just waiting to take over and impose their ideals through politics. They relish the throwing over of Islamic moderates like Khaddaffi, because this allows them to seize power where a stable governement originally created and put in place by the US was taking their place.
Democracy is supposed to be the great liberator of mankind. But what is it doing in the wolrd now? Democratically elected governements are ruining everything because it allows the rule of the fool(the fool = the greatest majority) to have power, not the wise, the few, the intelligent.
What do you think? Has democracy reached the end of its rope? Is its tip now burning away to ashes? Is it time for some new form of government to be favored over democracies? What about a meritocracy a group of people who select who gets to rule and make decisions, such as the anceint Roman senate during the Roman empire did, rather than (though I beleive they were democratically elected too, not everyone in Rome was allowed citizenship. In fact, most werent) everyone being able to make a "difference" by voting? Or is complaining about the government that your right to vote grants you worth too much? Do we just want a society comprised of upset complainers, rather than contributors? What power does democracy allow the average person to have in the end, and is the average really worth being given the final say?

Diana Wynne Jones' The Time of the Ghost
Here's another Diana Wynne Jones book that I somehow have never read! This one involves four sisters who live at a boarding school for boys--and a ghost, who's one of the sisters, but isn't sure which one. It's complicated. Really an engaging (and delightfully weird!) read, even if things do wrap up a bit neatly. Then again, it /is/ aimed at kids. B+.

With headlines across the Internet, from mainstream outlets, to blogs, social media to conspiracy forums, about the upcoming announcement of an overreaching planned Executive Order on immigration from Barack Obama, which will provide amnesty for up to 5 million illegal immigrants, Senator Ton Coburn issues a dire warning, stating "The country's going to go nuts, because they're going to see it as a move outside the authority of the president, and it's going to be a very serious situation," Coburn said on Capital Download. "You're going to see — hopefully not — but you could see instances of anarchy. ... You could see violence."
The announcement is expected on Thursday in Vegas and politicians opposed to this Executive action which will bypass Congress have issued a firestorm of criticisms and calling Obama "Emperor," and threats of lawsuits, with major networks snubbing the speech and refusing to air the speech live, sheriffs are going on record calling this the "Destruction of Democracy," and accusations that Obama is deliberately throwing the "nation into crisis," with the DHS warning to "brace for a new surge" of illegal immigrants to flood the US.
Will the reactions of Americans to this overreach by Obama be the very thing that tips the scales and gives him the excuse to crack down and turn the US into a police state?

Interesting, well researched and well performed. A great insight by Tim Hanley into the ups and downs of one of comics stand out villain/anti heroes. Read nicely by Rachel Dulude. There are more than a few mispronunciations of comic book creators names in here, however I'm certain that is not the fault of Tim or Rachel and doesn't detract much from a great listen. Just bought Tims Wonder Woman audio book, if it's as enjoyable and interesting as this one I'll be very happy.

Hi guys, I recently got my L-75B light meter, and I was wanting to use it for both film and photo shoots, and I was wondering if any of you guys knew how to go into "photo" mode.. or wherever I can change the actually shutter speed, and not fps or shutter angle. Thanks!

"Continually Under Shell or Rifle Fire"
Churchill spent Christmas Eve at the headquarters of General Redvers Buller, scarcely a few hundred yards from where he had been captured by the Boers 36 days earlier. During January, General Buller gave Churchill a commission as a lieutenant in the South African Light Horse despite the fact that he continued to serve as a war correspondent for The Morning Post. The War Office had prohibited soldiers from holding a dual position, largely because of Churchill's dispatches during the Omdurman Campaign and his subsequent book. Buller indicated in a letter to a friend why he had been inclined to ignore the prohibition: "Winston Churchill turned up here yesterday escaped from Pretoria. He really is a fine fellow and I must say I admire him greatly. I wish he was leading irregular troops instead of writing for a rotten paper. We are very short of good men, as he appears to be, out here."
"He really is a fine fellow and I must say I admire him greatly."
Buller specified Churchill was to receive no pay from the Army while serving as a correspondent. Churchill didn't care and was soon in the thick of fighting at the battle of Spion Kop, writing in late January to Pamela Plowden: "The scenes on Spion Kop were among the strangest and most terrible I have ever witnessed….I had five very dangerous days continually under shell and rifle fire and once the feather on my hat was cut through by a bullet. But in the end I came serenely through."
Pamela, not so serene, had been urging Churchill to come home as he had certainly achieved the notoriety and, indeed, the public acclaim he was seeking. His escape had been the one bright spot for the British in their Black Week of the Boer War when, Churchill wrote, they had "suffered staggering defeats, and casualties on a scale unknown to England since the Crimean War." Churchill declined Pamela's entreaties, writing to her: "I am quite certain that I will not leave Africa till the matter is settled. I should forfeit my self-respect for ever if I tried to shield myself like that behind an easily obtained reputation for courage. No possible advantage politically could compensate–besides believe me none would result…but I have a good belief that I am to be of some use and therefore to be spared."
Churchill's mother, Lady Randolph, joined him in South Africa in late January, along with his brother, Jack. Lady Randolph had organized and raised funds from Americans to send a hospital ship, the Maine, to South Africa; Jack, with his brother's help, had been named a Lieutenant in the South African Light Horse. Despite his brother being wounded in a minor skirmish on February 12th, Winston persevered, through heavy fighting, and was with the first relief column on February 28th which lifted the siege of Ladysmith. Churchill stayed in Ladysmith for over a month where he started work on his fourth book, London to Ladysmith via Pretoria.

It's reliable advice which we've constructed them all in the beginning. It really is absolutely an issue, however that was usually the particular purpose, to start with some thing fresh and initiate along with a thing totally new. Rethinking items that helped us all earlier was completely part of that.

song of the same name. It is a great opportunity to introduce the song to the rest of the world. Amy's vocals are pretty good, however, they lack the passion that the original had. Remixes by Tracy Young, DeMarko!, and Klubjumpers make this dancefloor ready. Tracy and DeMarko!'s are big room-oriented. DeMarko!'s is harder and just works better overall. The Klubjumpers mix has a Eurodance feel with some Rock thrown in. This is in a similar vein as the original Girls Aloud version. All are good, but the DeMarko! one is the standout.

Evidently, somebody's reading this now, so I'm obliged to produce something on a more regular basis…
1) After seven years of college and $70,000 in debt, I find many economists say a bachelor's degree isn't a necessary prerequitite for success. "The notion that a four-year degree is essential for real success is being challenged by a growing number of economists, policy analysts and academics. They say more Americans should consider other options such as technical training or two-year schools, which have been embraced in Europe for decades," says a recent Associated Press story. As much as I dream of my kids getting a degree and living the cliche'd American Dream, there are plenty of welders, plumbers and ITT graduates making a darn good living. It pays to look at all of your options instead of rushing into college loans with blinders on. Wish someone told me that 30 years ago.
2) Went to Chinatown's market this morning to stock up on some fresh groceries, and realized that when it comes to fresh food, they mean business:
3) Keith Olbermann used to do an admirable job pointing out hypocracies of the right-wingers, but lately it's become tiresome. His nightly 'Worse Person In The World," as evidenced by a full-out nonsensical rant aimed at Sarah Palin the other night, has become a tired schtick. It's hard to take him seriously any more.
4) Did not make the pineapple salsa like I planned. Tried regular salsa first; it took me three tries, but I'm in the ballpark. My cilantro was cilantro, not parsley, and my jalapeno's were jalapens, not serranos. But I can tell the difference now. I'll try it again tomorrow.
5) I'm a news junkie – I do a daily scan of at least seven or eight online news sites daily. Yet the only thing I know about Supreme Court nominee Elena Kegan is that she says she's not gay. I'm relieved, though… the Court would never be able to function if Justice Sotomayor kept having to worry that Kegan would hit on her between cases.

So, so thankful
"I have to tell you what happened to dad yesterday, but before you get upset you should know that he's alright now."
She proceeded to tell me that he was down at the boat yard with a 74-year-old fellow retiree friend trying to fix the cover on the boat. He was pulling a line to increase the cover tension because high winds have been a big problem down there. I'm not sure whether the line snapped, or the attachment point on the cover ripped, but immediately there was too much slack. He was pulling hard enough that the sudden slack caused him to lose his balance. Their boat is situated at the very corner of the boatyard and when he lost his balance he fell backwards, miraculously clearing the 8-foot rock-lined drop before he hit the river. He broke through the ice in the river and went to the bottom. He was able to pull himself up towards the surface, but was unable to find the opening in the ice where he had fallen through. Somehow, he found a small opening and his friend was able to direct him to a larger opening in the ice where he held onto something until he could be directed towards a way out. I don't have the details, I'm not sure anyone is clear on any of it, it happened so fast. There was no one else in the boatyard yesterday afternoon and if his friend had not been there, he wouldn't have made it. If he had fallen with just slightly less force, he probably would have smashed his head into the rocks on the way down and not come back up. If he hadn't been able to find that opening in the ice as quickly as he did, well, you know what I'm saying. His friend was quite overwhelmed, too, as he realized quickly how helpless he was in that situation and as he told my mother what had happened she broke down completely. My dad lost his glasses and he needs a new wallet. He's got some nasty gashes on his head from where he hit the ice trying to break through from the underside. He's also pretty sore from the force of breaking through the ice somewhere on his lower body. But thankfully, he's alright. My mom said he was pretty quiet last night, I can only imagine what a horrible experience he went through and especially coming just 3 months after hospitalization for heart troubles, his mortality has really been shoved in his face recently. They needed a quiet day at home and I'll see them when I get back from my trip.
On a lighter note, we had a great family afternoon- just what I needed before spending five days away. The kids were very excited to show me a new trail in the woods off our road that they found last week while walking with dad and the puppies. We set off after Superman took a rare nap, the boys each pushing their doll strollers and Paul with the puppies while I tagged along. It's about a quarter of a mile to the trail entrance and from there it was probably another half mile, across a shaky bridge over a small stream and following on an embankment that at times was pretty steep, until we reached the place that they stopped last time. Hot Wheels spotted a point where it looked like the trail picked up again, on the other side of the stream. Of course there was no bridge of any kind at this point, so we scouted out an area where the rocks seemed close enough that the boys could make it over with some help from dad. I'm not really known for my steadiness or being all that sure-footed, so dad was in charge of stream crossing. The puppies, of course, just jumped in and across, and I followed along as best I could. We guessed at where we were heading and we were wrong. About half a mile later we ended up on a road sort of close to where we thought, but not close enough that we could take it home. So, back into the woods, over the stream, along the embankment, over the shaky bridge and back home. Our quick walk turned out to be a very enjoyable trip almost 2 hours long. The boys both walked alot, Superman needed a lift after we hit the first road for a few minutes and then they both needed to be carried a bit about 2 tenths of a mile from home. Not bad mileage for a 2- and 4-year old. It was a beautiful 50 degree day and one that made it so nice to be a family, spending time together outside. Not that we didn't lose our patience a little when Superman started dawdling along picking up sticks and rocks and generally poking along, sometimes we forget what fun it must have been to be a 2-year old out in the world. As much as I'm excited about this baby coming, it was also one of those days that made me just slightly sad that while the boys are becoming so independent and self-sufficient, we'll be starting all over again soon. We've got strollers that can do off-roading and I've got a good baby carrier, so we'll try not to stop the normal pattern of life completely, but things will be different again for a while. But it's all worth it.
Not much more than 12 hours from now, I'll be on the road to the airport. I'll be home around 7pm Friday. I'm trying to look at the bright side of being away that long. I hope to get 4 nights of uninterrupted sleep, I get to sleep in all the way until 6:30am and still get in a workout before heading off to work. However, I'll be at work until 6pm every night and I'm usually done a 3:30pm. Eight hours a day of instrument programming and instruction and then we've all got to go to dinner together, so it will be a long week. I hope the hotel has a decent gym, but I guess we'll just see what happens. Happy week, all.
Pregnancy status: 18 weeks, 154 days to go.

How frightening! I'm so glad to hear that your dad is okay. I loved your story about your trek through the woods with the family and the puppies. It painted such a beautiful picture in my mind. And I'm sure once the new baby comes it will just add more fun to your outings! :) Have a safe trip and it sounds like you'll stay busy so it will be over and you'll be back home before you know it!

Oh my! What a weird accident for your dad to have - all the ifs. I wonder if he has a concussion; my husband had one that went undiagnosed. We kept wondering why he was so quiet and out of it. Best wishes for your dad!
I just went into the woods with a 2 (3 tomorrow) & 4 year old today - they certainly do make you see the world with new eyes.
Enjoy the sleep this week - and your boys when you get back. :)

Wow. What an ordeal with your dad. Lately, I'm really beginning to truly comprehend how precious and fragile life on this plant is. I'm glad he's okay.
In my opinion, travelling for work is no fun, but it is always good to look at the bright side. I also count not having to cook as a plus when I travel. Have a good trip.

So glad your father is OK. That must have been a very frightening ordeal.
Sounds like you've got two budding trail orienteers on your hands.

Omigosh - that must have been terrifying for him. Thank God he is okay.
I love your kid stories! If we had started earlier, I'd have had 50 kids...

Yeye, I haven't done anything here in recent weeks. I'm not sorry 😉
Things must go on though and here's something to prove. Anyone who doe snot know me might say it sounds incredibly emo. It isn't. Anyone who can't accept that: to hell with you^^
numbness closing in
every single blink is
followed by the words ascending
arising, looming, screaming
pictured thoughts
framed memories and fantasies
is this really me
is this someone else
what are these faces
what mean these names
and are these my own hands grasping
who's voice is it in my head
who's fear I feel when the night goes on
it's me
it's me
it's me
it's me who's crying now

My three year old, Joseph, took Holy Communion on Sunday like a big boy, arms crossed, said his own name, waited for Dn. Lawrence to finish the prayer and walked away to grab his antidoron. As he walked up to me with bread in his mouth, he beamed as he said, "My mouth is holy."
I'm beaming from ear to ear.

Verified Patient Reviews
The receptionist and staff was very professional and the atmosphere was great. All questions was answered reference my visit and I will refer to others that has been for great profession help for skin, and hair care. I was absolutely satisfied. I would recommend to others.
Even though this was my first time I loved the way the staff greeted me and the actual appointment. I felt heard and not dismissed which was important to me.
I thought the meeting went well, & am glad I booked the appointment with het.
Dr. Miles was fabulous. She was thorough and very knowledgeable. Her staff was excellent too. I am very happy with my results.
She's so sweet and pleasant. Very knowledgeable and organized. Always a joy being seen by Dr. Miles!!
She's amazing!
I appreciate the level of professionalism and candor from this office. Highly recommend!!
Was not impressed with the doctor and the personnel.
I do not like having to leave my credit card on permanent file with their office. I will not be going back to this place of business.
Very concise. Diagnosed the problem right away. Extremely Knowledgeable!
Dr. Miles and her staff are always prompt. I'm provided nothing but, great service and respect whenever I go to her office. I highly recommend her, she is a great resource and very knowledgeable. I've been seeing her since before starting her own practice.
Dr. Miles' staff are professional, informed, personable. The space is lovely and soothing. I drive from Washington, D.C., and since the traffic is light and parking is accessible, the drive takes less time than driving downtown. Most importantly, I feel that Dr. Miles is a professional and a healer with a focus on excellence. I recommend her to all of my friends and family.
I showed up to the appointment on time but still had to wait in excess of thirty minutes for my appointment. In an age where doctors have signage indicating they can charge patients for being late, there should be an effort to have appointments be on time. While this is nearly impossible with patients who **are** late and then cause everything to back up, at the very least the receptionist should indicate that there is a wait--and apologize. Mercifully, this is an annual appointment but if I had to visit this practice regularly, I would definitely take this into consideration.
I was a new patient on the first visit and very happy I picked Dr. Miles. She was very friendly, very professional and attentive. She helped with everything I needed. I definitely recommend.
Professional, knowledgeable and prompt
She was able to look at my skin and immediately know what I needed. The cream and shampoo that she prescribed worked!
Dr. Katina is wonderful. She is very personable and always has a solution to my skin problem. Her staff is great too!!!
Office staff is friendly and helpful and very minimal wait time, maybe 10 minutes at most.
She was very friendly. She took time to explain my condition and answered all questions I had. I also didn't feel she rushed my time to get to the next patient which some doctors tend to do. Great bedside manners.
Very nice and professional and to the point. Didn't push for unnecessary procedures.
Extremely polite and attentive. Highly recommend Dr. Miles. 10 Star!
Dr. Katina is wonderful she took her time with me and had great bedside manner. I will definitely be seeing her from here on out and recommend her to anyone and everyone!
Dr. Miles was super informative and patient, and her assistants were very kind also. The front desk staff were helpful and welcoming. I would definitely recommend friends here. The only negative for me was waiting about 10-15 minutes past my scheduled appointment time, but that's not a big deal at all. Great experience overall!
I love the space and energy when you enter the office. The staff is extremely professional, and I felt as if I was in the hands of an experienced healer, who wanted to explore and understand the issue, and not just check a box and move to the next patient. I did not mind waiting, because I felt like a quality experience. Most importantly, I began to experience progress within a few weeks of her prescribed treatment.
I thought the office staff was very professional and helpful. Dr. Miles was very knowledgeable, professional and personable.
Dr. Miles was very knowledable. I'll be coming back.
Came in to see Dr. Miles for eczema and acne and both conditions have improved greatly since my first visit. She's very pleasant and knowledgeable on both conditions. She usually has an assistant that takes care of the medications in terms of telling you how to use the medications she prescribes and such. For all my visits so far, she has spent just enough time to inspect, diagnose, recommend, or reaffirm course of treatment. The only downside for now is the distance I travel to see her.
Dr. Miles listened carefully w/o interruptions to what my problem was and came up w/ a plan to treat me. I like Drs. who listens to patients and try to give a diagnosis w/o listening to ALL of the symtoms. I love her will definitely be my Dermatologist now henceforth & forever more.
Learned a lot and felt that my needs and concerns were important. Everyone was warm and competent.
She is very nice and listens to my concerns.
I enjoyed meeting Dr. Miles. She was very courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable of the concerns I brought to her. She answered all my questions and even provided some alternative procedures/treatments that could possibly help resolve or alleviate my condition (but she was careful to acknowledge that those alternative options may not work as well). Her nurse was equally courteous. I would give my visit with her an A+, Excellent, 5 stars. On the other hand, her front desk staff was NOT A+. Please be advised that Dr. Miles has a policy in her office that requires every patient to leave a card on file so her office can charge you a fee for any appointments you may miss or arrive late or balances left from your health insurance. I understand the policy but it should not be requested of any new patients. I believe the fee should be applied to any patients that have violated the policy. To apply it to every new patient is a huge turn-off especially with an unfriendly front desk staff that gives you an ugly look if you refuse to leave your credit card. Even with this policy, I would still recommend Dr. Miles.
Dr. Miles was great! A full body scan can be uncomfortable and she made it not so bad. She answered all my questions and talked me through the exam. I like the technology use in office. The whole appointment was very efficient and I love that you can book appointments online.
Dr. Latin a Miles was very professional, thoural, and curtyious.
Very efficient and friendly staff. Dr. Miles and her assistant made me feel very comfortable and at ease. Dr. Miles answered my questions without making me feel rushed. Great doctor.
Nice staff- very open and friendly. Dr. MIles was very thorough
Loved the doctor and the doctor's tech. Wait time was around 40 minutes, so a little more than I wanted but it's a doctor's office. Only small issue I had was the two ladies working up front. Did not greet me or anyone else I saw come in and sign the clipboard which was literally right in front of them. Just came off kind of rude. Other then that I definitely recommend this doctor! Super personable and helpful.
Very good visit.. Dr was knowledgeable and professional
The experience was amazing and the staff was friendly AND professional! ??Very happy to have her as my dermatologist
Wonderful doctor!!
The 1st visit was okay. I like her personality. I feel she should have explained conditions, treatments and outcomes a bit better. All in all I would still recommend her to others. I hope I leave from my second visit with a little more information.
Very informative; I will be returning soon to do a check up and to buy product for skin care.
I will not refer people here or return myself, very unprofessional and the front office woman was SO RUDE on the phone, the type that talks AT YOU instead of TO YOU. Awful customer service. The dr didn't seem to care.
I appreciate Dr. Miles taking the time to address my multiple issues and answer any questions I had. I did not feel rushed and left feeling confident that I have simple solutions to my skin issues.
Highly skilled, professional, and caring.
She's awesome!
My visit with Dr. Miles was very much professional and what you would expect from a high-quality dermatology office! I'm just personally not able to afford the customized treatment plan, in addition to my current treatment plan at the moment. And it's quite a financial lift up-front, especially considering that the treatment may or may not work in tandem with my current treatment that is giving me satisfactory results. It didn't seem like there was room to discuss options or natural alternatives outside of dietary restrictions, or the usual advice about having acne.
The wait was a little longer than I'd like, BUT it makes sense when she's taking her time listening to your concerns! I will be back for sure !
Staff & doctor very friendly, professional & knowledgeable. I was taken aback by requirement to leave credit card information on file. No personal checks accepted.
Dark spot on face
It was good. Did not feel rushed and she answered all my questions and did not get annoyed.
My visit with Dr.Miles was great!! My wait time was under 30 minutes (new patient forms) , once I was taken back it was 5 or less minutes before the doctor came in and evaluated my complaints and did a simple procedure. Overall my experience was less than an hour in and out. Best service ever in a doctor's office.
Dr. Miles was gentle, kind and very professional. She and her staff were courteous at every step of the new patient process. I'm looking forward in getting the medical treatment that I need from such a wonderful professional.
Dr. Miles has great bedside manners. She is friendly, knowledgeable and really makes sure that you get the best treatment and results possible. My first appt was November 2016 where I was given 3 acne medications and 2 scalp medications. She advised me how to properly take them and within one week I began to see results! I couldn't believe how drastically my acne and dark spots began to fade! After only 3 months, my skin is looking better than ever and should be fully cleared of all dark spots in another 2 months or so. Great doctor, pleasant staff, wait time fluctuated each visit. The longest I've waited is an hour and some change, but this is not a normal occurrence. Plus, the area is nice- new shopping centers in walking distance. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Really liked the doctor and how thorough she was, but the office seemed very geared toward elective and cosmetic procedures and advertising pharmaceutical brand name drugs, which I did not like.
She was very knowledgeable.
I was very please with the way I was treated even though I came in already in pain. The wait time seemed to be too long. Even though many of us have grown to expect a long wait at the doctor's office even if you are not a new patient. If the wait time was less than 30 minutes this would have made the visit excellent. Overall I am pleased with the Dr. Miles professionalism and care.
Very professional, very relaxed atmosphere. Great assistant to go over details
Dr. Miles is always pleasant and professional. She is very knowledgeable about her field. She seems like a genuinely nice person. I highly recommend.
Dr. MIles was very professional, knowledgeable and timely. She put me at ease and I felt very comfortable talking with her.
She is a great dermatologist and I trust her knowledge in skincare. I've seen other dermatologists before, but Dr. Miles will explain the truth behind the process of treating your skin type and she explains how the skin will be improved. I saw her for adult acne treatment and she said it will get worse before it gets better, I'm finally starting to see results three months in and I continue to see Dr. Miles because this is the first time I've seen results this good.
She and her staff were professional, nice, and very efficient. I highly recommend them!
I really liked Dr. Miles along with her nurse and the women at the front desk. Everyone was pleasant and professional.
Great first visit, quick and too the point. Doc was very professional and personable. Looking forward to my follow-up appointment.
Very good visit; they seem very interested in making sure that they had accurate information about the patient and a good understanding about why the patient was there. They are very efficient and their use of technology helps make the visit timely for everyone. Very impressed with their mannerism, professionalism and presentation. Office very clean and welcoming.
I am a new patient. I like the bedside manner of Dr. Miles and the nurses that I have dealt with. I have referred others to Dr. Miles who like her as well.
The office is really clean and inviting. The average amount of time I've waited on my visits has been around 30 minutes.
Good - saw improvements in my skin in one month based on her recommendations. Very informative and helpful.
Dr. Byrd Miles was very knowledgeable about my skin care issues and she has a great bedside manner.
Gave all the options for treatment. No pressure to purchase inhouse products. Seems very up to date on all the best & current treatments.
So grateful to have found you! Looking forward to the relationship we are building as you work with my daughter over the next several months!
Awesome people!!!! With such beautiful smile.
Everyone was very nice and professional. Sarah was excellent and very knowledgeable. Dr. Miles was very attentive, focused and made recommendations. I enjoyed my first visit and look forward to my next visit.
Very friendly and responsive.
Excellent experience, great advice and look forward to treatment.
This was my 1st visit and I was very pleased and will definitely go back.
My visit was very informative. Dr. Miles addressed all of the concerns that I had and suggested options and outcomes to resolve each of them. She was very understanding of my preference to take the less invasive therapies and did not push for me to take more aggressive treatment.
Great service. Very personable! Really enjoyed the visit! Office staff and nurse were excellent as well! Highly recommend!
Dr. Miles is excellent and a great listener. I recommend her to all my friends and family.
This was my first visit and Dr. Miles was very knowledgeable and treated my skin issue. Dr. Miles also gave me additional advice for skin care options and fully examined me. She had a great bedside manner and was very professional while also pleasant. In addition her staff was friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend.
It was great. Dr. Miles was very personable and approachable, she answered all my questions.
Very pleasant, professional and positive. Explained everything to me in details and answered all my questions. Thank you!
Straightforward but friendly approach by staff and Dr Miles. All aspects were explained including cost.
Went to see her for my yearly skin check. She was very thorough and explained any issues she found very well. Good bedside manner. I was seen within minutes of my appointment time. Front desk staff was helpful but not very friendly, just matter of fact.
Front desk was very helpful and pleasant to work with. Katina Miles, is very professional and was very attentive to my concerns.
This was a great visit. The entire staff is a joy to work with. Dr.Miles provided a great treatment plan and options.
My first consultation with her was great. Very informative and personal. Her assistant was great to talk to and work with as well.
Great office and Doctor; the wait time was ridiculous though.
Excellent staff and nurse, doc was straight forward and thorough!!
Very thorough and answers all of your questions, even if you have a hundred of them! She knows her stuff and pretty much laid out a treatment plan for all my problems right away. She has such a sweet spirit. Will definitely return.
First visit ever. Very professional and good manner. All staff made the visit extremely comfortable.
I've had skin tags & moles removed before. However, my experience with Dr. Miles was by far the most comfortable.
I was referred to see a dermatologist for contact dermatitis , I chose Dr Miles. She was pleasant but I did not feel she understood my problems with the issue. I felt she would be much better for cosmetic issues rather than my issue. This is just my opinion.
Doctor was very friendly, thorough and professional. The nurse was super nice and quickly put me at ease. Front desk staff were quick and informative and handled all of the paperwork with no issues at all.
The waiting room was beautiful and cozy. The staff at the front desk were very kind and helpful. The nurse that came before the doctor was very up to date and helpful. Dr. Miles gave a swift assessment and was able to give me solutions.
The office staff was not welcoming. They all seemed annoyed and did not possess pleasant dispositions. They tried to sell products on the first visit and the doctor rushed through the appointment making random choices in medication usage. They also will not ket you use your choice of pharmacy. I wAs very disappointed and will never return. Quality patient service should be a top priority and they lack it. The visit was a waste of time.
Very happy to have found this practice! Her staff were very professional and courteous and both Dr. Miles and her assistant were very knowledgeable. I really appreciated that they took time to explain the diagnoses and what medications/products would work best for my specific needs. I had a few questions and concerns and I never felt rushed or cut off when she would explain things to me. Would absolutely return to her if I have any other skin concerns!
She is GREAT i would recommend her to anyone i wish there were more Doctors like her
The doctor and her staff were pleasant. I was seen quickly and she was thorough in her explanations of my issues and the possible treatment plan.
1st visit. 2nd visit should avail itself.
My first time there and I loved the service and professionalism.
Dr Miles was very professional, personable, and attentive to the patients' questions. She provided answers that were easy to understand and quickly performed the necessary treatment,
Excellent from all aspects. Immediately I was seen, consulted, diagnosed and put on a care plan tailored to my specific needs. Everyone was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and explained everything I need to do and how to use the products and prescriptions I was given. The Esthetician spoke with me privately and even wrote out my AM/PM regimen - which I desperately needed. She also developed a point system which allows for discounts on products and future services. There was no hard selling, just great advice, expertise and education. The best part and most important part for me (the reason why I chose this specific place) was that the doctor, medical personnel and specialists share my ethnicity - so I knew I was getting, not only the help I desperately needed, but the BEST examination and care plan designed for MY skin. I was even provided coupons for the prescriptions issued. My former skin care habits have completely trashed my skin and for the first time in my life, I have hope that in a few months, I'll have the skin I've always dreamed of having. My only regret, is not getting to them sooner. Customer for life :)
Dr. Miles was very professional and straight to the point about finding a solution. However I would like it if her office staff were a little more respectful. When I entered, I greeted both women and was met with silence and very stiff responses when I asked questions. This isn't a deal breaker, but when I greet someone and have questions I expect better.
My visit overall was very good, because of my extended wait time my Specialist Co-Pay was waived, I consider that EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!
This was my first experience with Dr. Miles, and I could not have been more satisfied. She was very thorough and informative, and addressed some issues right then and there, instead of requiring me to make another appointment. I highly recommend her and her excellent staff. Thank you!
I highly recommend Dr. Katina Miles! I took a leap based solely on reviews left by others, and I was not disappointed. The staff was polite and friendly, and made sure I was comfortable and understood what to expect. Dr. Miles took her time, listened to my concerns and communicated in a thorough and professional manner. She was kind and friendly, and made sure all my questions were answered. Thank you for a great experience!
She was very quick and efficient. Listened to my concerns and came up with a regimen to treat my issues. Was able to get information on something that previous dermatologists were unable to diagnose/understand. Love the nurse!!
I scheduled this appointment same day and online from the office website. I was able to enter all of my daughters information and complete the registration forms to be sent directly to the office prior to my arrival. Upon arrival I was pleased to see a very neat, clean office and greeted by a very friendly receptionist. I was totally satisfied with the visit. She answered and made clear all of my concerns regarding my daughters skin. Dr. Miles provided excellent bedside manner and I did not feel rushed through my appointment at all which is a PLUS for me. Her assistant/nurse was very helpful in making sure I understood my after visit information regarding my daughters prescriptions and ensuring that if I had any questions to please not hesitate to contact the office. My 8yr old came nervous but was immediately put at ease upon being triaged by the assistant and after her visit with Dr. Miles. I would definitely recommend Skin Oasis for your dermatologic care.
Very professional , and the staff was great. I felt like they were family!
Professional and welcoming.
The nurse was really fun and helped my son feel at ease. Dr Miles was very polite, professional and thorough. Overall it was an excellent visit. We will definitely be back again.
She took her time and educated me as to what was wrong with me. Her assistances were very knowledgeable as well! So far so good I will be making a follow up appointment
I was very pleased to get an appointment the same day, especially after I got the wrong diagnosis at an urgent care clinic over the weekend. Mr. Miles, her nurse, and office staff were all excellent. I felt so much better within the hour of the visit.
Dr. Miles was very pleasant as was her staff. My concerns were addressed quickly.
Very nice. Takes her time with you. Good listener.
Dr. Miles was very personable. She examined my skin and scalp, identified the dandruff issues and prescribed two medications. Both have worked very well!
She looked at me for 5 minutes total. Not happy with the amount of time I took off work to be given very little of her time.
For me to drive 45 minutes away to see her and have a 5 minute discussion, of which she didn't ask any background history (for acne) was ridiculous. She literally confirmed I was there for acne and told me to take this and that and off i went. I felt rushed and like I was just another patient. There was also a male trainee who came in the room. I was never asked if I felt comfortable with him there and to have 3 people looking back at you did not make me feel comfortable or able to speak freely. We'll see if I go back in 3 weeks and if this medication even works. Overall, right now...not worth the drive, the tolls or my time.
I think she is a very apt physician and she was precise in what she can and cannot do for my skin and I like the manner in which she explained . I will have to see if she is as good as I think she is due to this was my first visit with her,however first impressions are everything and she made a lasting one in a most positive way.
I've never been to a dermatologist and didn't know what to expect. She was very professional, looked at my issue and provided two options for moving forward. I will be going back for a follow-up in 3 weeks. On a separate note, I read in the comments that the office didn't have all the history they'd filled out on Zoc Doc, so I didn't fill it out. They had the few things I did fill out online and then I had to fill it all out in person. I don't know why they didn't have that other person's, maybe it was a long time ago, but they have the info now.
Great visit. Receptionists were warm and inviting, medical assistant was very professional and easy to talk to. Dr. Miles was very professional as well, and took concern with the reason I was there. I would highly recommend this practice!
The office staff were extremely friendly. The nurses were quick and triaged thoroughly. I will definitely return to Dr Miles' office.
Quick to understand my problems and was an easy in & out. Great service
Dr Miles was friendly and involved. The staff and nurse were also great.
I was 17 minutes late due to traffic and bad weather. They wanted me to reschedule but since I'm 45 minutes away it wasn't worth it to me. The receptionist also said they don't get paperwork from Zocdoc so I had to refill everything out in person that I already filled out online.
Dr. Miles was very knowledgeable and good at explaining my conditions. She listened to my concerns and addressed each very appropriately.
I was a new patient and she did not spend a lot of time with me. I felt rushed along for the next patient. I am suppose to return in two weeks. Wet will see.
The entire staff was efficient and professional. They explained everything that was going to happen, how to use certain products and no pressure to schedule cosmetic treatments.
We were able to schedule an appointment and be seen right away. Excellent staff and Doctor - made my teenage son feel very comfortable.
efficient...answered my questions and gave me options. very professional.
I felt very comfortable with Dr. Miles. She was very attentive and professional.
Very happy with the visit. Surprised how painless the procedure was and she provided specific answers to any questions we may have had.
Very professional and efficient Swift service but thorough Would recommend
I did not know what to expect at this appointment, as I'd booked it via ZocDoc and it was my first time using this website. I was pleasantly surprised. The office is very professional, as was Dr. Miles. I'd recommend to anyone.
Very fast straight to the point

The inspiration for the Bramble comes from the Coventry-made Triumphs beloved by Land Girls and English district nurses in the inter-war years up until the 1950s.
The bike is easily customisable and can take a rear rack or basket, while an ample ration of 6 gears is good for hillier areas. With slightly flatter handlebars than the Birdie, the Bramble is a nippy, dependable steed. Its also our lightest bike, so no sweat lifting this fellow up your stairs.
