Sometimes it is helpful to know how long someone has been registered. We currently do not save when the user account was created. I was thinking of using first access; however, it appears that sometimes that data does not necessarily get populated. Where I would find this helpful is in reviewing CVS write applications it would give me an idea of how long someone has been around in the community. With the logs not being stored beyond a couple of weeks it is hard to see if someone is a quiet person that has been around for a while or a new person. I generally assume new and can use the user id as an estimate but figured it might not be a bad idea to suggest having a 'Member since' type field that would be set when the user account is created.

Anthony, thanks for your suggestion - sounds good to me Reassigning to Eloy for further consideration.
Thanks Helen. The more I think about it the more I wonder if this might not best be a feature request for CORE. I'm not sure if we have any actual data that would make it meaningful on moodle.org but we will see what Eloy thinks. Peace - Anthony
I think user->firstaccess uses to have that info (time when signup form was fulfilled... or equivalent in other authentication methods).
Adding that to profile page seems easy to do. Vote please. Ciao
Eloy - On my test site I noticed that many of the firstaccess fields were 0. The code to set the first access is dependent not so much on logging on as it was on user_confirm. When an account was created manually and no confirmation was required it is possible that firstaccess would never be set. Attached is a quick check during login that if it is in fact their firstaccess or firstaccess is empty then it will set it. Let me know if you want me to file this as a separate MDL issue. Peace - Anthony
Eloy - Here is a patch to show first access in /user/view.php. Note that it creates a new string in /lang/en_utf8/moodle.php (alternatively we could use the firstaccess string in /lang/en_utf8/filters.php). Peace - Anthony
I like the idea of having that info available. And the fix in login seems correct. My only "but" is about sites wanting to have that info hidden... should we control it based in some config setting? We have the "hiddenuserfields" config field... should we enable firstaccess there?
Thanks Eloy - Yes, I was thinking of checking for the hidden field, and just forgot to add it to the admin settings page. Here is a revised diff that adds the ability to check if firstaccess is a hidden field. Initially I was just thinking of this for Moodle.org; however, I see no reason for it not to go in core. Peace - Anthony
Hi Anthony,
some minor comments about the patch/es:
1) In moodlelib.php, when setting the firstaccess field if empty:
a) I'd execute the update by id ($user->id)
b) Would be a better option to use user->timemodified as value to put instead of time() ?
2) Changed behaviour: Once applied the behaviour changes, with "firstaccess" being showed by default. And that could be sensible in some servers. Perhaps it would be better to add one upgrade step in order to add the "firstaccess" field to $CFG->hiddenuserfields always, so current behaviour will be respected in ALL existing servers (while it will be showed in NEW servers).
I agree with 1a - $user->id seems to be the better way to go. I was just trying to be consistent with MD's set_field above. I think we should probably change them both.
What would be the advantage to $user->timemodified instead of time? Would $user->timemodified be the time that the user was created? My thinking was that the most accurate time of firstaccess is that moment when they first login (i.e. successfully authenticate). I think time might be more accurate for what firstaccess is supposed to be but you may have a different perspective.
As for the upgrade step, could you help me understand that a little better. It would have to be based on version since in mdl_config the hiddenuserfields entry just contains a list of the hidden fields and that may or may not already be set so there would be no way of determining that. If you could just point me in the right direction I'll work on it and update the patch.
Peace - Anthony
Hi Anthony,
the point about to fill $user->firstaccess with $user->timemodified instead of time() is to get some older time, different than now. Perhaps we could look logs instead of something else. I was, simply, trying to get some date in the past to avoid that field being filled with current time (to avoid users claiming about that). Not important, as far as 99% of users will have it properly filled, just trying to get an older time than time().
About the upgrade... I mean we should respect current behaviour... and current behaviour is that the firstaccess information isn't showed right now. So, after upgrade... that behaviour should remain the same. To do that we need to:
1) increase main version.php in a small increment.
2) perform one "upgrade block" that will do this:
a) if $CFG->hiddenuserfields is empty set it to "firstaccess"
b) if CFG->hiddenuserfields is not empty, add "firstaccess"
That way, the field will continue being not showed by default (current behaviour) and sites wanting to enable it only will need to un-hide it from admin.
Does that sound ok?
Eloy - Yep, sounds OK. Now I see your logic with $user->timemodified and I agree that would be better. I think combing the logs would be more accurate but overkill. I'll work on the upgrade script. I am presuming in the diff that a small increment change would be from 2007101541 to 2007101542? But I saw reference in upgrade.php to micro versions but I have not been keeping up on how those work. Peace - Anthony
in theory you could use 2007101541.01 or similar... but I think you can safely use 2007101542. Later if we run short of versions... we'll use the micro-incremements, np!
Eloy - OK - here is a diff that combines firstaccess.diff and
MDLSITE-615.diff and implements the version bump. Sorry for the delay. I got a call to play tennis and then had a friend arrive from Omaha, NE. Peace - Anthony
One area of the patch that you may want to take a look at, I was la bit azy with the if statement containing the strpos function to check if firstaccess was already part of the string. What I wanted to avoid was if by some chance (not likely) someone already had it listed not having a repeat like 'firstaccess, firstaccess'. Technically since strpos returns a number I could have done something like: if (strpos($CFG->hiddenuserfields,'firstaccess')>0); however, as long as it finds some value the statement should evaluate to true unless the string is not found in which case it will be zero/i.e. false but stylistically more seasoned developers may want that to be more grammatically correct. Peace - Anthony
Sounds good! +1 for the concept! is this ready to try on moodle.org?
Just looked at the patch - seems non-controversial and backward compatible too ... can you merge into 1.9.4+ ?
Just changed this:
if (!strpos($CFG->hiddenuserfields, 'firstaccess'))
if (strpos($CFG->hiddenuserfields, 'firstaccess') === false)
And added one missing:
upgrade_main_savepoint($result, 2007101542);
in the upgrade script. Going to test in a bit more... and commit in a few minutes. Ciao
Oki I've:
- committed to 19_STABLE
- updated moodle.org and enabled it there (was disabled by default - correct approach).
And then:
- merged to HEAD
But, in HEAD, I've omitted the upgrade step, because it will cause people coming from 1.9 to have that field hidden again. So current approach in HEAD is:
- The firstaccess field will be visible on new installs
- The firstaccess field will be visible if was visible or non-existing in the version we are upgrading from
Does that sound ok? It's the best way to respect updaters I've found. And I haven't been able to imagine an alternative way to know what was done before (but adding some flag somewhere in DB) but I think this isn't critical enough to do so.
Thanks Anthony, Martin, ciao
First access info on moodle.org is great! Thanks a lot Anthony, Eloy and Martin. I couldn't resist browsing the profiles of some of our Particularly Helpful Moodlers
Eloy - The behavior you outline sounds good to me. Thanks for your work on testing and getting it committed. Peace - Anthony
Petr - You may want to double check with Eloy but as I understood it, in HEAD the version upgrade was not necessary because we were going to have it be shown by default. We just didn't want folks seeing information in 1.9 without having the admin explicitly say it was OK so we added it to the list of hidden fields by default in 1.9 but it will not be hidden by default in HEAD. Does that make sense? Peace -Anthony
hmm, it might be better to include these in security overview report, I suppose this might be considered privacy issue by some people
Petr - At least informing the system admin that some new information is being revealed by default would not be a bad idea. Peace - Anthony
I agree could be considered privacy issue... more or less.. IMO the name, or picture... are far more private, and we don't include anything about them in security report, correct?
Is anybody can help me I have problem with the last access date. it shows the students first access and last access date same.. what should I do.. my hosting company asking money for it but why we need to pay money if the solution is on the net

Xbox 2 Or Playstation 3?
Posted 01 June 2005 - 10:37 AM
HaveYouseenPennington has told you that he is a console programmer....so I dont think that would classify him as just another forum person, plus I do know a wee bit about computers.
Teraflops are nothing new....let me change that. The teraflop has been around, but other than supercomputers, we havnt achieved getting to the teraflop range for common users...until now.
Japan is working on a computer that's cpu uses gold and diamond which is hitting around 70tflops last I heard.
you also say that people hate microsoft and say crap about them. Well the exact same thing goes for people hating sony....and no offense but you kind of sound a little bit like one of those people. Especially since you do not have all your facts straight and are just going off of what you heard.....which sounds like you're basing everything off of other people's, your computer savvy's people's opinions.
plus just IMO...I think the PS3 videos look better. I like the Gears of War and Huxley for Xbox...but what games are good after that? Please tell me?
PS3...killzone, fightnight round 3, warhawk, killing day, F1, motor storm, dark sector, ff, the getaway, i-8, the godfather, oh ya and killzone 3.....and killzone 3
and killzone 3....you gotta admit...that was the best trailer EVER! *sigh*
Honestly...I'm only excited about 2 xbox exclusive titles....unless there is one that I forgot...plz remind me. PS3 Titles blew away the Xbox ones... but thats just what I think on that.
Posted 01 June 2005 - 03:54 PM
2 whats your point. I said I'm not the most knowledgable person about this and I said I'm going off of PC professionals who I know that know about that crap for a living.
3 I'm only 20 how much do you want me to know.
4 the xbox had way better games. The only PS2 only titles I liked were the devil may cry series (GTA is on xbox too now) and san andreas sucks compared to the others. I still think 3 is the best.
5 The xbox trailers looked wayyy better. Anyone who is not blind could see that. Doesn't take an expert to see if something looks better
6 The xbox according to quite a few game things including G4TVs show on e3 said it has the best launch title line-up in history.
7 Halo won games of the year and so did halo 2 (even though I'm not a fan of them at all)
8 My favorite games of 2005 so far are jade empire (xbox only) and Splinter cell 3. I didn't try resident evil yet but I want to
Basically saying I'm a fan of quality. These are the systems I have/had.
Calico (I was too young to truly appreciate games then)
Super Nintendo
Sega Genesys
So that's far from biased and FYI I bought my PS2 AFTER the xbox. And was sadly disappointed by it and the CG was the last system I bought. I didn't even actually buy the xbox I got it as a gift but it's the best system I played. The PS2 has soo many games but a lot of them aren't any good and their controller needed a bad update. They were good for PS1 but should have been redone.

Well the reason why I choose Playstation over xbox is pretty much the same reason with Madden, and espn viedo games, once a Madden video game buyer, always a madden video game buyer. So once a Playstation buyer, always a Playstation buyer.
It would be very hard for me to switch systems just like that, Playing Playstation most of my teenage life.
I am sure XBOX is a very good system, and I know they have the bext graphics in the world, but only if their shitty games could back up the system.
Posted 01 June 2005 - 07:56 PM
that may have been one lackey on an E3 review show
IMO all of those hosts are tools anyway
truely the carson daly's of g4
and again that is all opinion anyway
especially considering nintendo won the majority of the awards at E3 [although they were given out by g4, so i guess that kills my lackey point]
Posted 02 June 2005 - 08:36 AM
Yeah but with titles Like Jade Empire2, Halo3, FF is now on xbox (even though I don't like that series) the xbox looks too good to turn down. Plus the project gotham games are the best racing games (even though I suck at them)
Posted 02 June 2005 - 11:11 AM
there's been a lot of pressure on rare to turn that game out and it should be a beauty

Almost everyone in the world agrees with me, no even about 99% agrees with me that Playstation games are way better then XBOX, and XBOX however is a better system, and has better graphics. What games are worth buying that are on playstation, well lets see...
Tekken games, EA Sport games are the two of some of the top franchises in video games, that I can not stop playing, because they are so damn good.
First off, Halo does in fact suck, games like Halo ruins little kids minds, It makes them have less of a life. I will never, ever buy a Halo video game.

nintendo lost the rare series of games a long time ago while they were in the process of making a sequel to perfect dark which was most likely set up for the gamecube
microsoft has since picked up rare and thrived with them
Perfect Dark Zero is set to be a XBox360 only game
Posted 02 June 2005 - 01:32 PM
Also I don't like halo but 99.9% of the population will disagree with me on that. I might not like it but it is one of the best selling and most liked games of all time. The first one is still a top 10 seller and has sold over 4million copies.
Tekken sucks. Well not the first 3 I actually loved the original but the series went downhill. 4 and 5 suck. (only played 5 in an arcade) the best fighting game out is DOA ultimate and xbox only game and is on xbox live. Can't ask for much more then that. And the graphics are amazing on it.
EA sports is on every system. And on the xbox the graphics are more polished. So they don't count
Like I said no good PS2 ONLY games really.

Final Fantasy, Gran Turismo, Metal Gear Solid, Virtua Fighter, Madden Nfl 2005 (collectors edition)
Posted 02 June 2005 - 02:10 PM
I like mostly action/adventure, RPG, football, those are my favorites
And vitua fighter is horrible (though the graphics are the best I seen on PS2) DOA is the best fighting game
Posted 02 June 2005 - 02:28 PM
you're welcome
i actually told my friend that if he buys an xbox360 ill buy perfect dark with him so i could play it
but what point am i proving for you? the point that xbox has quality games?
if so
you're welcome again
i'm not the one who said they had poor games
although their selection is slim most of their games hold their own
despite the fact that YOU dislike those games, they are still the worlds top selling games.

With a new pricing tool, retailers are finding ways to win more sales.
Skip McGrath has been selling independently for years through Amazon.com Inc. and eBay Inc.'s marketplaces, but there have been times when some products, like the electric salt dispensers and other kitchen gadgets he offers, just won't move. "Sometimes products just sit there," he laments. "I had some products that hadn't moved in a year."
Part of the problem, he says, is that with 900 SKUs on Amazon alone—ranging from gourmet packaged foods to jewelry to pistol holsters—he simply doesn't have the time to re-price them all, and often enough, to maintain a competitive edge on an e-marketplace with thousands of other sellers.
McGrath has tried software applications to automatically re-set prices based on what other marketplace sellers are charging, but says they often simply drive his prices fast to an unaffordable rock-bottom.
However, he recently discovered another way to play the pricing game on Amazon with Feedvisor, a new re-pricing tool from a Tel Aviv, Israel-based company of the same name. Unlike other tools that mainly change prices to stay below the competition, he says, Feedvisor factors in many data sources—including a seller's ratings from customers, whether it offers free shipping and how well a particular product sells in relation to either of those factors. It also incorporates data about how many units of comparable products are listed by competitors and how well a particular type of product has been selling at various price levels, he says.
Although McGrath has only been using Feedvisor for a few weeks, he says he has already seen a 6% to 8% increase in the number of products he's sold on Amazon that he has re-priced through Feedvisor.
Other e-marketplace sellers report even larger sales boosts with the tool. G. Brian Kern, a seller of health care and fitness products such as pain relief gels and exercise balls, says he has been using Feedvisor for a year and has realized a 500% increase in sales through Amazon for products it re-priced. Like McGrath, Kern says he had tried other re-pricing tools, but found they simply pushed down prices to what he had set as his floor price. With other sellers doing the same thing, he often wound up having to sell beneath that price, he says.
One way Kern tried to win sales at reasonable prices was by using his re-pricing tools to both lower and raise prices frequently, he says. When competitors' prices would rise in response, he'd then quickly lower his own prices, he says. "We'd try to catch other sellers off guard."
But such maneuvering wasn't worth the time and effort, Kern says. "I was managing 200-300 products, and would spend two hours or more per day re-pricing. That's a chunk of your time, and then 30 seconds later someone comes in with a new price."
When Kern deployed Feedvisor, it took about 24 hours to set up, including the time to set his rules for the minimum and maximum prices at which he was willing to sell each item, he says. He also enters information on his costs, including the wholesale prices he pays for merchandise, his fulfillment costs and the commissions he pays to Amazon. Through an application programming interface connection to Amazon, Feedvisor then compiles data from the Amazon marketplace as well as from Kern's sales and inventory records to constantly re-price his products, aiming for maximum sales and profit margins, he says.
Kern still spends about 15 minutes every day looking at how his products are priced. Feedvisor provides ongoing reports that show how well each product is selling, enabling clients to decide which ones may need adjustments, McGrath adds.
In addition to compiling information from various sources that affect sales, Feedvisor uses built-in analytics to continuously record how well products sell based on price and other attributes like ratings and shipping terms. That enables it to help Kern win the Buy box on Amazon even when he doesn't offer the lowest price, he says. Feedvisor may determine, for example, that the Gripmaster hand exercisers Kern offers may sell at a higher price than other sellers' products because of Kern's customer ratings and the fact that he ships through Fulfillment by Amazon, the warehousing and shipping service offered by Amazon.com for Amazon marketplace sellers. "We'll win in cases even when we're selling at a price that 10% to 20% more than a competitor's price," he says.
Feedvisor provides its re-pricing software over the Internet as software-as-a-service. Clients pay a fee of 1% on transactions for products re-priced through Feedvisor, says Shmuli Goldberg, director of marketing. He adds that Feedvisor currently works with only the Amazon marketplace, but is planning to offer re-pricing software later this year for eBay Inc.'s eBay.com and Rakuten Inc.'s Rakuten.com Shopping.
Hiroshi Mikitani, chairman, CEO and co-founder of Rakuten, will address the company's international e-commerce strategy during his keynote presentation at the Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition 2013 in Chicago in June. Mikitani's presentation will take place from 8:45 a.m.-9:15 a.m. on June 5.

Hope we'll still get to see the girls, the masters, and that perverted genius actually get a piece in the action
Was the 1 asking for help, the same 1 who was 1st attacking Gama and the others when they 1st came? Or was that her, as in the older sister who was fighting before?
If it is her sister, Hope the other 1 continued training?
Really hoped she would be able to handle some herself before the guys were needed. Also hope we actually get to see her and the masters fighting, no scenes where they just beat like 20 people. We've never really seen them do anything besides practice and traing. Now they can show their true potential.
I Forgot, Who is Kawasaki?
Seems like Gama lost some weight, while gaining height. His body actually greatly now resembles the genius who trained them.
I get the feeling the biggest changes and surprises will come from Zenmaru.


text: The results have been amazing! I now understand the entire strategy behind his approach, and I see what I didn't see before. My clients constantly remark about the letter I sent and how mine was the only one they saved. It's all in the approach. Tom's instincts and guidance have been instrumental in building a reliable marketing system that sometimes works too well - what a terrible problem!!

Browns Oakridge Zoo is a family owned and operated zoo established in 1990. Beginning with a single pot bellied pig and a few whitetail deer, the number of species housed at the zoo has grown to include five Siberian tigers, several black bears, two lions, and many more exotic and domestic animals. Over the years we have taken in many abandoned animals. A total of 152 lion and tiger cubs, abandoned in captivity have been reared here. Most of our animals have been raised in the house, and have had a lot of human contact. You won't just get to see the animals here, but you will be able to have hands on contact. Imagine being able to hold a lion, tiger, or bear cub. It brings out the kid in all of us.

Fountain Hill school trying to win grant to build new playground
FOUNTAIN HILL, Pa. - Students at Fountain Hill Elementary School in Lehigh County say all they want to do is play, but the school playground is not safe.
Now, several community members are trying to win a $50,000 grant for a new playground.
The Bethlehem School District deemed the old playground unsafe last spring, so the school now needs everyone's vote to build a new one.
In the meantime, the students hold on to fond memories of their old playground.
"We do the monkey bars. We go across the bridge and then the monkey bar that go into a tube," said Assata Allah-Shabazz, a 4th grader. "It's really fun."
"The bridge area that connects two pieces of equipment has begun to rust and rot and the screws are beginning to deteriorate," said Lisa Lynch, principal at Fountain Hill.
There are also missing screws and chipping paint on the 15-year-old structure, so the school and several community members have come together to help raise money for a new playground.
They found an excellent opportunity through the Clorox "Power a Bright Future" grant contest.
"To raise the amount of money that they need for a new playground is an incredible task for any community to do, and this grant would give them a leg up," said Samantha Kleinrock, community coordinator at AmeriCorps Vista. "It's $50,000 if you win first place."
The group has a YouTube video asking for votes. There are still 22 days to vote and get Fountain Hill to the top spot.
You can vote twice a day via text, online or email, and some students are really counting on it.
"I say, 'Can you please, because we don't have a playground, and we're not having really much fun?" said Allah-Shabazz.
Volunteers have been placing door hangers around the community, trying to get more votes.
The school started in 79th place; it's now in the top 10.

Maduro's charges center on party activists within Capriles' First Justice Party.
CARACAS, VENEZUELA — Venezuelan Vice President Nicolas Maduro on Saturday accused opposition leader Henrique Capriles Radonski of "conspiring against the country," just weeks after the government had said there was a plot to assassinate leading office holders.
Maduro said he would reveal within hours Capriles' actions, which he said "were nothing good." Capriles lost to Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez in the October election by about 10 percentage points.
"This should embarrass this dead-chicken loser to go to Colombia and conspire," Maduro said during televised remarks while opening an animal feed plant in the western state of Portuguesa.
Maduro said the government will present proof of corruption in Capriles' First Justice Party on Tuesday. The charges reportedly center on party activists and not Capriles, who is the governor of Miranda State.
Maduro, who was anointed by Chavez as his heir apparent on Dec. 8, has repeatedly criticized the country's opposition for trying to destabilize the South American country while Chavez is recuperating from cancer surgery in Cuba.
Chavez hasn't been seen in public since Dec. 11.
Capriles and the opposition have said that Maduro prefers to focus on unsubstantiated plots as a ruse to divert people's attention from food shortages, which have made staples, such as sugar and chicken, difficult to find.
A few weeks ago, Maduro said the government had uncovered a plot to kill him and the head of the country's National Assembly. Since making his accusation, no arrests have been made.

Another difference between private & public sector.
If a private company decides that it cannot afford to do business in one state, it can move. It is not possible for the govt of Ohio to move to Wisconsin Thus, whatever the cost of running the business of govt, they ain't moving out of state or overseas.
A private company does not have an unlimited option of raising its price to cover increased costs. At some point, it will no longer be competitive with other similar products/services in the marketplace. It can move or close its business. The govt, when faced with costs increasing, just raises taxes. Taxpayers have no chance to "opt out" as they do with other products/services.
Just read in the NYT that NJ state income tax is 8.97% ... add that to FIT; and property taxes; sales tax ... and one really doesn't have to wonder if the "rich" are paying their fair share of the taxes.
Interestingly, the states with the highest tax profile (like NJ, NY, and CA) are the ones who have the largest financial mess. Seems like the more $ the govt has to spend, the less wisely they spend it.

The reason companies like Mercedes Benz, Nissan and Toyota chose the south to build thier factories is because they wouldn't be blackmailed by the UAW. Add the fact that pay at these factories are better then what is paid in Detroit.
The list goes on and on of companies moving to areas that are more buisness friendly than the unionized "rust belt".
""President Trump was a chaos candidate and apparently intends to be a chaos president. Stability, it would seem, is out the window. The White House will lie without hesitation when it serves its perceived interest." The American Conservative
"Do you believe that a person should be forced to pay to have a job? This means do you think that a person should be forced to pay money to a union in order to have job? Why is that not extortion?"
To me this question doesn't reference government unions but is a general statement about closed shops. I agree, unions based on government employees are different because the employer is not incented in the same way. So the union has had an advantage for so long and now their benefits are out of whack. However, I don't think unions alone are to blame. The public and our representatives are to blame. We are the other side of the table and we have to protect our interests too. We have to find a medium.
Unfortunately, for too long many locations have been electing representatives that are beholden to the unions which is much more common in the Democratic party but happens on both sides of the isle.

Join us for this week's The List as we share our picks for our favorite Diablo III classes (so far!).
I outright dismissed this class when Diablo III was announced. I'm not into the whole Ace Ventura voodoo motif, so I was mostly turned off by the outward appearance of the class. However, having played alongside a friend of mine who mains a Witch Doctor, I've come to appreciate the serious variety in spell effects and functionality that the Witch Doctor brings. It's a visually interesting class to behold and there are simply tons of options to choose from. I'm definitely going to have to give this class a closer look. Also, you can create a tower of zombies as a Witch Doctor. SOLD!

I play the monk as my main at the moment, I love it! But the barbarian is also reallyyyyyy nice.
atm i,m on nightmare with my witch doctor..its awsome,love it when 30+ mobs show up and i just explode the hounds,hehe carnage.
Nice write up, Mike.
Hmm, I only played Demon Hunter in the beta. ... Maybe that has to do with my mediocre experience ...
Most of D3's classes honestly don't tickle my immersion glands so much and the DH came closest. Hence I picked it.
I guess I'll have to wait for a Paladin class because I really digged the plate wearing, shield bashing, mace wielding knights in shining armor of D2.
Monk For Life!

Sounds like an Occupy related festival, possibly aimed at supporting Tibet, tbh.
Play as a female monk. Although, i did try out the other classes & the only other one that I really liked was the wizard - the female one has a good arrogant attitude going on
(On an entirely different note - OMG DarkPony!)
demon hunter>monk>although favoring monk more as i level him....witch doctor.....barbarian....wiz.
I hadn't planned on playing a Barbarian on release. I was actually going to play a Monk and maybe hit up Barbarian at a later date, but my friends decided to all make monks and I wanted to add some variety. So I jumped on a Barb and I haven't looked back.
Monk in beta was a lot of fun as well.
So far, I'm playing the Witch Doctor through Nightmare mode, and LOVING IT!
From hurling jars of jumping spiders that home in on adjacent enemies to flaming skulls that bounce across multiple targets for massive splash damage, to pouring down pools of acid that spawn acidic blobs, the list goes on and on...
The gargantuan can basically tank anything in the game, the zombie hounds make me think of Mr. Burns from "The Simpsons", when he'd tell Smithers to "Release the hounds."
Sooo much fun!
I really dont' like most of the classes but picked Demon Hunter. It's fun if not a little ridiculous.
I was playign a barbarian and my roommate comment that it really didn't seem like me. Which it isn't. Kind of wished there was a regular warrior.
Aww.. but I really like my demon hunter but Im prone to peer pressure waa!
I knew I should have taken that left turn at Albuquerque...

Yeah, the rather arrogant attitude the Female Wizard has is thanks to a certain female lightning-slinging firebrand from a show that the same Voice Actor played.
As for me? Barbarian and Demon Hunter so far. Barbarian because me likey smashy. Demon Hunter because while the class is awkward as f%^& when it comes to its movement skills, and could really use a tune-up with some of the skills oomph-factor, part of me just cant resist twin-crossbows and rapid fire.
PigEye McNasty
Demon hunter atm-like the monk though and witch doctor
Wizard is my top so far. Every time I level up that awesome lightning spell or acane orb I was using changes and gets surprisingly cooler. I am squishy however and it's noticeable in nightmare mode, hehe. Witch Doctor takes awhile to get good I think, and seems to have lulls in between certain levels where you feel OP one second and UP the next. Seems the kicker in this game is getting them all to 20+ to see what they can really do. It's all good though, lots of fun to be had.
Demon Hunter. I love it. I love being mobile and difficult to kill while doing damage only rivaled by the wizard. I have several defensive abilities that make me the envy of my group in our hardcore mode.
Diablo 3 is so well constructed that every class is extremely fun. It really depends on your personality and play style.
I personally enjoy classes that most people don't like to play so the witch doctor for me was my first choice. The other two i like in order are the demon hunter and the monk tho since i am a ranged fan i tend to like the demon hunter the most.
Barbarian so far.
Grim Dawn, the next great action rpg!
I'm in Act IV with my DH and it's a really great class imo and they look really nice. I'm trying to settle on my 2nd class for another playthrough but can't decide between monk and wizard. I really wanted to like WD but it just didn't click for me at early levels -necro plz - altho i really like how they look in later levels.
Barb seems so flavorless to me. It seems like a class that every other kid chooses when they first log-in, without even trying anything else because it's "rawr barbar". Altho it was fun when i tried it. Every class is fun in this game, can't choose
I am still literally not happy about there beeing no Necro. I know, I know old news. WD just isn't the same for me. Where are the sardonic little quips?Where is the freaking blood golem and the pasty "I need to get out more" contenance? I loved building Necro's more than I loved building stuff out of Lego. And I love building stuff out of Lego guys!.......Love it!

By By DIXIE ALLENVice ChairState Board of Education
Since the inception of "No Child Left Behind," public education has been under attack. In Utah, many of these attacks are coming from the Utah State Legislature in the form of cuts to education funding, proposals to dismantle the state's educational governance structure and generally casting dispersions about the performance of Utah's Public Education System.
Amid the myriad attacks comes the new legislative mandate to assign a letter grade to all schools, based on a model developed in Florida.
The question Utahns should be asking now is: Can school grades improve Utah's education system and meet the expectations of the taxpayers and especially legislators?
The assumption school grades will improve student outcomes in Utah becomes suspect when one looks closely at Florida's K-12 reforms.
Grading schools was just one component of Florida's comprehensive reform efforts. Hallmarks of their education reform included a large infusion of money into the reading assistance program for early grades, lowering class sizes, and holding back third grade students who are not reading on grade level. Florida's test data certainly reflect improvement based on these changes.
For example, Florida's fourth grade reading scores took an immediate jump when poor performing students were no longer included. However, with drastically lower expenditures and higher class sizes, Utah has shown similar and in some cases higher outcomes.
Given the similar educational outcomes, despite Utah's financial and class size disadvantages, one has to question what role, if any, grading schools has played in Florida's success. So will we actually improve the quality of education for Utah students by implementing a school grading system? After taking a close look at Florida's comprehensive reforms, the answer seems to be, "No."
However, school grades are on our horizon and as we approach the implementation of SB59, I am appreciative of the work of the Utah State Office of Education and the cooperation of the bill's sponsor, Senator Wayne Neiderhauser. Every effort has been made to include student growth measures and grade level competencies in the grade calculation, while still meeting the statutory requirements of SB59.
For high schools there will be added points for graduation rate and students being prepared for career or college. It is anticipated that less than 10 percent of Utah schools will score as a "failing school" under the grading criteria, and these schools will likely be alternative high schools or schools in very poor communities, with little access to supplemental programs and supports.
The School Grading System might be one tool in informing our decision making about persistently under-performing schools, but it is paramount that this system is used as a way of identifying and helping struggling schools, not punishing them or the students, families and communities they serve.

|In response to Re: toliet leaking
: : There's what is called a "spud washer" a rubber cone shaped water sealing device that is already there, but it's probably warn out. Turn off thewater to the tank at the valve by the floor. (There's a tube that runs from the bottom of the top tank, to the valve). Flush the toliet to empty the tank. Disconnect the supply tube. Catch the water that runs out into a dishpan. Loosen the two screws that hold the top tank to the bottom bowl. lift the tank off of the bowl. Be careful not to bump it against the wall or the bowl and crack it. Turn it upside down in the tub or shower. You should see a spud washer at the bottom. Pry that out, go to a local hardware store and get another, and replace it.

Both times President Bush was elected I strongly supported him. Now, after witnessing the actions of others when our country is at war, I have constructed a few rules which I will follow.
In the future I will refrain from being publicly disrespectful of a president. In wartime, I will not hope for failure so my party can regain political power. I will not support a president who quits a war for the sake of popular opinion. I will not support a president if we are repeatedly attacked and he does not take appropriate action. If I oppose a war, it will last until our blood is shed, then opposition will stop. It is a good thing to criticize the conduct of a war, but criticisms should be geared towards victory.
President Bush is commander in chief of our armed forces. Many members of the opposing party have tried to defeat him politically by facilitating and hoping for failure in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Wars, many of them voted to finance and wage. I have learned from this selfish performance. Just as I support the current war and president, I will be just as resolute in support of a future president from an opposing party.

Reviews of this property
Flat de excelente localização. Equipe receptiva de boa acolhida. O inconveniente é a questão e água quente e calefação. Água quente ás vezes falha e o banho fica frio, sendo um transtorno no inverno. A calefação também não é boa. Dá-se a impressão que ás vezes não é ligada pelo gerente do prédio. Mas num geral é tudo muito muito bom e recomendo esta estadia. Com certeza voltaria a este mesmo lugar.
Die Lage war super. Wenig Verkehrslärm und doch zentral mit Bus- und Metro-Anbindung (Lincoln Center und Columbus Circle). Gleich gegenüber zum Frühstücken ein Bio-Bistro (Le Pain) und um die Ecke ein großes restaurant/Bistro mit guter Auswahl zum Frühstücken (The Smith) und abends Bar (haben wir abends aber nicht besucht). Die Einrichtung einfach, aber grundsätzlich nett gemacht, allerdings etwas renovierungsbedürftig. Nicht so gut waren folgende Punkte:
· Kalt, Fenster nicht dicht, Heizung nicht richtig warm; Ersatzdecken wären gut gewesen.
· Extrem hellhörig, insbesondere beim Schlafen auf dem Gästebett im Wohnraum. In den anderen Räumen war das nicht so schlimm.
· Gästebett eigentlich nicht nutzbar, das es durchhängt und irgendwelche Knubbel aus der Matratze herausstechen und laute Geräusche aus dem direkt daneben liegenden Heizungskeller kommen. Sobald jemand im Haus warmes Wasser benötigt, fängt der Boiler (oder was auch immer) recht laut an zu rumoren.
· Die Bettwäsche für das Gästebett war nicht gewaschen.
· In der Wohnung hat es nach irgendeinem Raumspray gerochen – vor allem in Küche und Wohnraum. Einige Klamotten riechen immer noch so.
- Das Schlafzimmer oben war recht klein, das Bett reichte von einem Ende des zimmers bis an die gegenüberliegende Wand (was auf dem Foto bei genauem Hinsehen zu erkennen ist).
- Die Betten in den beiden Schlafzimmern waren gut.
- Gemütliches Wohnzimmer, wo man abends noch nett sitzen konnte.
Die Lage der Wohnung war ganz gut, aber das war es dann auch schon. Leider ist sie recht runtergekommen. In den Doppelbetten kann man nur allein schlafen da eine zweite Person sich, falls sich mal einer bewegt, unweigerlich wachgerüttelt wird. Außerdem knartzen sie so laut... Die Klimaanlage macht zwar einen Höllenlärm, kühlt aber nicht. Es wirkt alles angeschmuddelt und man möchte nicht barfuß im Bad stehn. Ralph ist auch nicht grad die Ausgeburt an freundlichkeit, wenn man ihn am Telephon hat. Die Bilder wirken eigentlich recht passabel, aber täuschen doch SEHR. Für das Geld kann man erheblich besser unterkommen!

Great apartment accomodated 8 of us comfortably. Fantastic location! Would definitely book this again ❤
The apartment is located brilliantly close to Central Park and Times Square. Virtually everything we wanted to see in NY was in walking distance and CP is great for a morning run or a casual walk. The bedrooms of the apartment are very nice with lots of closet space. While the living room is a bit small and without windows this did not matter much as we only spend mornings and late evenings there.
The apartment was everything we needed, It was situated only a block from Times Square, surrounded by theatres , restaurants and bars and yet was quiet enough due its proximity to 9th ave to give us a local feel away from the hustle and bustle. The apartment was large enough for 7 adults and a baby to live in relative comfort, the two bathrooms came in very handy and the kitchen is more than serviceable. The only negative I can think of is that during our initial contacts we advised that we required a babys crib and high chair during our stay and were told that they were both available, on our arrival we were told that neither were organised for our stay and that we could get a crib if we payed an additional $50 which we did. Apart from this our stay was fine, there is ample lined and as we stayed for 2 weeks the close proximity to the laundramat around the corner meant it was easy to clean this line fairly regularly. All in all a great place to stay as a base for everywhere you want to go in Manhatten
The apartment was exactly as described and pictured. The host was waiting for us to hand over the key when we arrived and everything was in absolutely great order. We enjoyed our stay here very much and would recommend this location to everybody. Very close to Times Square and Central Park, metro is just two blocks away. Four nice bedrooms and two identical and very modern bathrooms. Communication with the host was easy and they made us feel at ease. Recommended!
The location was superb. However the lifts smelt of garbage at all times. Apartment is deceiving in photos for its was so cramped that the two couples had no privacy. The apartment needs a renovation considering what they charge. Not very happy stay unfortunately. Plus we were charged $80 for late entry even though New York airport was closed due to lighting storm . The lady was very inconsiderate to say the least with our plight. She was more interested in her $8o surcharge. So feels bit cheated.
the flat is located in the center of Manhattan. Th description of the flat is properly done. Good communication.
