Fury Warrior DPS Rotation, Cooldowns, and Abilities (MoP 5.4)
On this page, we list your Fury Warrior core abilities and how they should be used together (rotation) in World of Warcraft MoP 5.4. We also explain when to use your various cooldowns. Then, we go deeper and present all the subtleties that you will need to know if you want to excel at playing a Fury Warrior.
The other pages of our Fury Warrior guide can be accessed from the table of contents on the right.
This guide has been reviewed and approved by Jalopy, one of the best Fury Warriors in the world, who raids in Duality. You can follow his stream on Twitch.
1. Preface↑top
Playing a Fury Warrior properly (in a way that results in good DPS and beyond) is more difficult than in the case of most other classes. You can do reasonable DPS if you execute a simple rotation, but your DPS will not be competitive until you learn to master the rotation and playstyle in full.
In the section that follows, we will present a rather basic version of the rotation, that will allow you to get started and play your Warrior with reasonably good results.
Keep in mind, though, that if you wish to be truly proficient at playing your Fury Warrior, you will need to master the advanced rotation.
2. Single Target Rotation↑top
To begin with, you should always cast Colossus Smash on cooldown, and save your rage so that you go into Colossus Smash with a full rage pool.
Storm Bolt plays an important part in the rotation. Make sure to read our dedicated section to learn more about how to use Storm Bolt.
- Before Colossus Smash.
- Use Heroic Strike
- To prevent reaching maximum rage.
- Use Bloodthirst on cooldown.
- Use Bladestorm/ Dragon Roar.
- Use Raging Blow (make sure to have at least 1 charge available when you do cast Colossus Smash).
- Use Wild Strike (only with a Bloodsurge proc).
- Use Heroic Throw.
- Use Battle Shout.
- Use Heroic Strike
- During Colossus Smash, use precisely the following spell sequence:
- Heroic Strike (every available global cooldown);
- Raging Blow (if you have 2 charges);
- Bloodthirst (if you have 1 or 0 Raging Blow charges);
- Raging Blow (when Bloodthirst is not available);
- Wild Strike (when neither Bloodthirst, nor Raging Blow are available).
Outside of Colossus Smash, you should make use of Heroic Strike only to avoid being at maximum rage.
When the boss is below 20% health, Execute becomes much more important. Outside of Colossus Smash, you should use it instead of Heroic Strike (to ensure that you do not cap your rage). During Colossus Smash, you should mostly use Execute, only using Bloodthirst when you are below 30 rage), and Raging Blow only when both Execute and Bloodthirst are unavailable.
3. Multiple Target Rotation↑top
The AoE rotation depends on how many adds you are facing and how good your rage generation is. In any case, you should always make sure to use Heroic Leap against the targets, if possible.
If you are facing 2-3 enemies you should perform a single target rotation with a few modifications:
- Replace Wild Strike (when it does not benefit from a Bloodsurge proc) with Whirlwind (this will also stack the Meat Cleaver buff).
- Replace Heroic Strike with Cleave.
If you are facing 4 or more enemies, you should maintain the following rotation for as long as your rage allows you to:
If benefiting from the 2-Part Tier 16 Set Bonus, you should weave in Colossus Smash as well, since the extra rage will help you cast more Whirlwinds.
If you are facing 8 or more enemies, simply use Bloodthirst as needed to remain enraged, and spam Whirlwind while weaving in Colossus Smash. Make sure to use Raging Blow at 3 stacks of Meat Cleaver.
4. Cooldown Usage↑top
As a Fury Warrior, you have several DPS cooldowns. Additionally, you can obtain two more DPS cooldowns from your talents of choice.
- Berserker Rage should be used to help with your Enrage uptime. This is subtle, and we tackle it in depth in a later section.
- Recklessness should be used as many times as possible throughout the encounter. It is ideal to stack it with other cooldowns.
- Skull Banner should be used as many times as possible throughout the fight, but keep in mind that the rest of your raid should benefit from this as well.
- Shattering Throw is essentially a raid cooldown, so keep in mind that the rest of your raid should benefit from it as well.
For more details on these cooldowns, as well as on the cooldowns granted to you by your talents, refer to our detailed cooldown usage section.
5. Stance↑top
Battle Stance grants you a lot of rage with each melee attack you make, but grants you no rage from damage taken.
Berserker Stance grants you half the rage that Battle Stance does, from your melee attacks, but also grants you rage from damage taken. If you are taking at least 3-4% of your maximum health in damage each second (or if you anticipate a large damage spike will hit you), it becomes a DPS gain to be in Berserker Stance .
Other than this, there is no difference between the stances, and your abilities are not conditioned at all by your current stance.
6. Mastering Your Fury Warrior↑top
The guidelines given above will enable you to play your Fury Warrior with good results. If you want to push things further and master your character, then we advise you to continue reading.
6.1. Titan's Grip or Single-Minded Fury
At the moment, Titan's Grip provides slightly higher DPS in single-target situations, and a much higher gain in AoE when compared to Single-Minded Fury, assuming equal item level weapons. The important thing is weapon damage, though, meaning that you should choose based on what your best Main-Hand weapon is.
So, you are better off with an item level 535 Main-Hand and a 509 Off-Hand, than with two 522 weapons.
6.2. Rage Generation
By default, your rage is generated from two sources:
- Dealing damage with auto attacks.
- Using special abilities that generate rage ( Charge, Bloodthirst, etc.).
Exceptionally, if you are in Berserker Stance, you also generate rage from damage taken.
Your rage is mostly used by abilities in your rotation, although some utility spells also cost rage.
6.3. Advanced Rotation
The entire Fury Warrior rotation revolves around the periods of time when the Colossus Smash debuff is up on the target. While you are outside of a Colossus Smash phase, you will essentially be preparing yourself (pooling rage, saving certain abilities) for Colossus Smash being applied. While Colossus Smash is active, you will need to perform the most efficient sequence of abilities possible to make the most of the debuff. Finally, you will have to treat things a bit differently when the boss is below 20% health. We treat each case below, and then go into more detail later on in the guide.
The following outline is a fairly advanced overview of how to play Fury to a very high level. However, Fury is a playstyle that requires both following a long priority and gambling on procs and critical strikes to reach maximum potential. While this priority is accurate, there are simply too many ifs, ands, or buts regarding the intricacies within it to present here. You will have to discern much of this yourself by getting a feel for how often your Bloodthirst scores a critical strike, how quickly you will gain rage, how long until a DPS stop occurs, how long until an AoE DPS phase comes about, and so on. This will force you to think on your feet and alter your thought process regarding many of the choices you must make. This is something you will simply have to practice in order to get better at.
6.3.1. Outside Colossus Smash
When the debuff from Colossus Smash is not active, you should follow this priority system. Note that if you have the 2-Part Tier 16 Set Bonus, you can lower any rage thresholds by about 15-20.
Storm Bolt plays an important part in the rotation. Make sure to read our dedicated section to learn more about how to use Storm Bolt.
- Use Heroic Strike
- If you have more than 110 rage, and your next global cooldown is not Colossus Smash OR
- If you need to expend extra rage with Wild Strike (see this section), and it is currently affected by Bloodsurge.
- Use Bladestorm/ Dragon Roar.
- Use Bloodthirst
- Only when you have 1 charge of Raging Blow.
- Use Colossus Smash
- You should have at least 1 charge of Raging Blow when this ability comes off cooldown.
- Use Raging Blow
- Only when you have 2 charges.
- Directly after a Colossus Smash, you can spend any extra charges immediately.
- Use Execute (when it is a proc from the 4-Part Tier 16 Set Bonus)
- If the difference between the time remaining on the proc and the cooldown of Colossus Smash is 3 seconds or less, use it on the first opportunity.
- If the difference is 4.5 seconds or greater, hold on the proc for the coming Colossus Smash window.
- Use Wild Strike
- Only if you have a Bloodsurge proc.
- Use Raging Blow
- Only if you have 1 charge and you are certain that you will still have at least 1 charge again when Colossus Smash comes off cooldown.
- Use Wild Strike
- Only if you have over 110 rage, the global cooldown would not otherwise be used by Bloodthirst, Colossus Smash, or Raging Blow, and Colossus Smash still has 3 seconds left on cooldown.
- Use Impending Victory.
- Use Battle Shout or Commanding Shout
- Only if you have less than 50 rage.
- Use Heroic Throw.
- Do nothing (if none of the above steps meet their conditions).
6.3.2. During Colossus Smash
While the Colossus Smash debuff is active, the very first cooldown should be used on Storm Bolt (unless you are saving an Execute proc from the 4-Part Tier 16 Set Bonus that will otherwise expire), while the rest of your rotation is as follows:
Storm Bolt plays an important part in the rotation. Make sure to read our dedicated section to learn more about how to use Storm Bolt.
- Use Berserker Rage
- Use it to force a charge of Raging Blow in case Bloodthirst does not score a critical strike or you need to otherwise fill a global cooldown.
- Use Heroic Leap.
- Use Heroic Strike.
- Use Raging Blow
- Only if you have 2 charges.
- Use Bloodthirst
- Use Execute (when it is a proc from the 4-Part Tier 16 Set Bonus).
- Use Raging Blow
- Only if you have 1 charge.
- Use Wild Strike
- Only if Bloodthirst and Raging Blow are not available.
6.3.3. Execute Range Outside Colossus Smash
Note that if you have the 2-Part Tier 16 Set Bonus, you can lower any rage thresholds by about 15-20.
Due to the rage income you have with the 2-Part Tier 16 Set Bonus and higher gear levels, you can sometimes treat situations of high rage as Bloodthirst-X-X-X- Bloodthirst instead of Bloodthirst-X-X- Bloodthirst. This is because the enrage effect from each Bloodthirst lasts long enough to cover the 3 global cooldowns to the next Bloodthirst, and the damage from Execute will yield higher DPS.
As a Titan's Grip Warrior, it is important not to waste charges of Raging Blow, as they are extremely efficient in terms of damage per rage spent.
Storm Bolt plays an important part in the rotation. Make sure to read our dedicated section to learn more about how to use Storm Bolt.
- Use Bladestorm/ Dragon Roar.
- Use Colossus Smash.
- Use Bloodthirst.
- Use Raging Blow
- Only when you have 2 charges.
- Use Execute
- Only if Bloodthirst and Colossus Smash are not available, you have 1 charge of Raging Blow, your rage is over 80, and the global cooldown after it would not be Colossus Smash.
- Use Raging Blow
- Only if you have 1 charge, and less than 60 rage.
- Use Wild Strike
- Only if you have a Bloodsurge proc.
- Use Battle Shout or Commanding Shout
- Only if you have less than 50 rage.
- Use Heroic Throw.
- Do nothing (if none of the above steps meet their conditions).
6.3.4. Execute Range During Colossus Smash
After using Colossus Smash, the very first cooldown should be used on Storm Bolt, while the rest of your rotation should be exactly as we describe below.
Depending on how much rage you have, and the time until Colossus Smash, you should use a rotation of Bloodthirst - Execute - Execute - Raging Blow - Bloodthirst, so as to get the most out of your enrage procs and bleed extra rage. How much and when you should be using this is up to your discretion.
Storm Bolt plays an important part in the rotation. Make sure to read our dedicated section to learn more about how to use Storm Bolt.
- Use Heroic Leap.
- Use Bloodthirst
- Only if you are not enraged and Berserker Rage is not available.
- Use Execute.
- Use Raging Blow.
6.4. Opening Rotation
If Dragon Roar is not your Tier 4 talent of choice, fill the global cooldown with Heroic Throw, and overlap any assigned cooldown for that step with Colossus Smash.
Always ensure that the Colossus Smash debuff is up on the target before using your first Heroic Strike.
Any abilities on the same line should be used during the same global cooldown. Cooldowns on the same line as an ability should always be activated before the spell is cast, so that they may benefit from its effect.

6.5. Key Concepts
6.5.1. Enrage
Each time you critically strike with Bloodthirst and Colossus Smash, you become enraged, dealing 10% increased physical damage for 6 seconds. This will happen passively, so you do not need to concern yourself with it too much. Being enraged doubles the healing effect of Enraged Regeneration (if you have taken this talent) so it is advisable to have a way of monitoring this buff.
Note that your Mastery increases the damage bonus from enrage past the base 10%.
6.5.2. Bloodthirst Usage
As a rule, Bloodthirst is your most important damaging ability, because it generates rage and enrages you. So, this ability should be used on cooldown, except for when the boss is below 20% health and the Colossus Smash debuff is applied.
Essentially, you will use Bloodthirst every third global cooldown, with two filler spells in between. Choosing your filler should be done based on the priorities listed at the top of the page, all while taking into account how much rage you currently have.
As we mentioned before, it is sometimes viable to do nothing for one or two global cooldowns between Bloothirsts, in order to conserve rage for when you use Colossus Smash.
6.5.3. Colossus Smash
Properly managing the debuff applied by Colossus Smash is a crucial aspect to Fury DPS.
The general rule is that you want to use as many damaging abilities (and your most damaging abilities) while the debuff is active. Given its duration, you will at most fit 4 global cooldowns in, although with latency, 3 is a more realistic number. In addition to this, you can use abilities that are off the global cooldown.
To begin with, you should always prepare for a Colossus Smash, and only cast it if the following conditions are true.
- You have a high amount of rage (at least 80).
- You have one or two charges of Raging Blow.
- You are enraged.
If you are not enraged, then you should use Berserker Rage to enrage yourself, and if Berserker Rage is not available, you should delay your Colossus Smash until you become enraged from a Bloodthirst, or until Berserker Rage becomes available.
This is the ideal Colossus Smash spell sequence (not necessarily in this order, all that matters is the combination of abilities used in a given time frame):
- (before Colossus Smash) Bloodthirst;
- Colossus Smash;
- Raging Blow;
- Bloodthirst;
- Raging Blow;
- Raging Blow.
All the while, you should be spamming Heroic Strike (of which you should be able to land up to 5), and ideally also damaging the boss with Heroic Leap. As you can tell, that requires a lot of rage, so it is recommended to save your abilities and pool rage in preparation for a Colossus Smash.
While the boss is in execute range, Execute becomes the top priority under Colossus Smash.
In addition to this ability usage, it is very important to have as many DPS cooldowns up as possible while Colossus Smash is up. Most importantly, you should try to line up Bloodbath, Recklessness, Skull Banner, and Synapse Springs (for engineers) with Colossus Smash. Dragon Roar already ignores armor and therefore does not benefit from Colossus Smash.
6.5.4. Wild Strike and Bloodsurge
Your Bloodsurge passive ability talent grants your Bloodthirsts a chance to make your next 3 Wild Strikes be free of cost and only trigger a 1-second global cooldown.
You should have a means of tracking when this proc is active, through an add-on such as Power Auras.
Wild Strikes that benefit from a Bloodsurge proc are a much higher priority than those that not. In fact, as you can notice from the priority list above, Wild Strikes that do not benefit from a Bloodsurge proc should only be used as a means to dump rage.
6.5.5. Raging Blow
Raging Blow is not available by default. It becomes available each time you become enraged (either from Enrage or Berserker Rage). Each time you become enraged, you can use Raging Blow once. If your two enrages stack (either because you used Berserker Rage while you were enraged, or because Enrage procs while Berserker Rage is active), you will be allowed to use Raging Blow twice.
6.5.6. Wild Strike Versus Heroic Strike
When outside of a Colossus Smash window, maximising damage is extremely important. One of the more subtle ways to ensure your output is optimal is to know when to use Wild Strike or Heroic Strike as a rage dumping tool. Unless your main hand weapon is considerably better than your off-hand weapon (a difference of 20 item levels or so), Wild Strike will deal more damage than Heroic Strike. However, you must also discern on the fly which of these abilities is best to use as a rage bleed based on the basic fundamental variables of the Fury priority, such as rage, time until Colossus Smash, number of Raging Blow charges, and number of global cooldowns until Bloodthirst.
For example, if you have 100 rage, 1 Raging Blow charge, Bloodthirst has just been used, and Colossus Smash will not be available for another 6 seconds, it would be optimal to use Wild Strike in one of the two global cooldowns you have available. Inversely, if both of those global cooldowns can be filled with higher damaging abilities (like Raging Blow or Storm Bolt), it would be best to pair one or both of those global cooldowns with a Heroic Strike. You will also have to be on the look-out for free Wild Strikes (thanks to Bloodsurge procs), in which case you should pair the Wild Strike with a Heroic Strike if necessary to dump rage.
This is not something that a player who is new to the Fury specialisation should try to learn, but it is important for those wishing to truly master the playstyle.
6.5.7. 2-Part Tier 16 Set Bonus and Rotational Changes
The 2-Part Tier 16 Set Bonus causes special attacks made against a target affected by Colossus Smash to generate 5 rage. While this is quite a simple bonus, it has added a lot of complexity to the playstyle.
To begin with, acquiring this set bonus allows you to drop practically every rage threshold by around 15-25 rage, depending mostly on your ability to play Fury, as a higher understanding of the priority list will yield more efficient rage burning, and therefore make you expend rage in the most optimal of times. This will also mean that you will be filling more global cooldowns with either Heroic Strike or Wild Strike, as you will not need to save as much for each Colossus Smash. To put it into perspective, the maximum you can do inside a Colossus Smash is 4 special attacks and 5 Heroic Strikes. That makes up 9 abilities, which will grant you a total of 45 rage, enough for 1.5 free Heroic Strikes.
A good example of how the set bonus affects your playstyle is predicting incoming damage spikes. For example, in the Heroic mode of Garrosh Hellscream, when you are going to be using all cooldowns during a Whirling Corruption (during Phase Two), you could completely empty your rage pool before a Colossus Smash, since the combination of the raid damage and the set bonus procs will sustain your rage requirements for the entire Colossus Smash window.
You can also dump all of your rage until about 9 seconds to the next Colossus Smash, since the natural rage regeneration and the set bonus will be more than enough for a proper Colossus Smash window.
In the end, a lot of the changes that this set bonus brings depend on your skill level, specifically on your ability to adequately decide when to and when not to use extra rage. As it was said in the foreword of the advanced fury rotation area, there are just too many variables to list. While this section should have given you an outline of the idea, a lot of it you will have to pick up yourself as a player, the more time you spend with the class, getting to know your own rage incoming, and matching it against every global cooldown while saving enough rage for each Colossus Smash. If you are not certain that you have the skill and experience to assess these conditions, it is best not to try at all, and to err on the side of caution.
6.5.8. Sunder Armor
If no one else in your raid is providing the Sunder Armor debuff, then you should make sure to be using Glyph of Colossus Smash. This will ensure that your Colossus Smash hits always apply/refresh the debuff.
6.6. Detailed Cooldown Usage
6.6.1. Recklessness
There is no great subtlety to using Recklessness. Simply make sure to use it as many times as possible during the encounter, and try to stack it with as many other cooldowns as possible (especially with Skull Banner and Heroism/ Bloodlust/ Time Warp).
6.6.2. War Banners
Skull Banner is by far the most important of your banners. While we advise to always use it together with Recklessness (and Avatar, should you chose that talent), you must keep in mind that it is an extremely powerful raid buff. As such, if there is a time when your raid would benefit more from using the cooldown, than you would by stacking it with your other cooldowns, you should put the raid's best interests first.
Demoralizing Banner is also a raid cooldown of sorts, although it is a fairly weak one. You should coordinate with your raid leader, or at least with your tanks, in order to figure out the best time to use it.
Mocking Banner is mostly useless in PvE raids, but it could have some merit against adds.
6.6.3. Berserker Rage
Berserker Rage is a very powerful DPS cooldown, especially so when you consider that it only has a 30-second cooldown. Berserker Rage must be considered together with Enrage.
Their effects do not stack, so using Berserker Rage while Enrage is active is a waste. As such, you should keep in mind that Enrage will proc off Bloodthirst and Colossus Smash critical strikes, and adjust your Berserker Rage usage accordingly. Namely, you should use Berserker Rage to refresh your Enrage the moment it falls off, primarily when Bloodthirst fails to be a critical strike. Being enraged is one of the most important aspects of playing a Fury Warrior, and having the highest possible Enrage uptime has a huge impact on your overall damage, since your Mastery is a direct damage buff to every attack you make.
6.6.4. Shattering Throw
Shattering Throw is a raid cooldown above all else. As such, you should always prioritise your raid's best interests when determining the time to use this ability. We advise that you consult with your raid leader, as well as with other Warriors. Most of the time, however, you will prefer to cast this ability right as the boss is being pulled, since it costs no rage.
6.6.5. Tier 4 Talents
Essentially, Bladestorm should be used as often as possible. That said, whenever there are moments of AoE damage coming up, you should save it for those moments.
Titan's Grip users should read this section to see how Bladestorm can be used against a single target.
Shockwave and Dragon Roar are both valuable when used against a single target, despite the fact that they are designed with multiple targets in mind. As such, no matter what you choose, you should incorporate it into your rotation by using it more or less on cooldown. If you are using Dragon Roar, do not cast it while Colossus Smash is active (use it either before or after the Colossus Smash window).
Consider the multiple target properties of these abilities, and if there is a situation that is suited for them, try to save them for that time. For example, if a pack of adds is just about to spawn, it is fine to delay your ability slightly so as to make better use of it, especially if it is important that these adds die quickly. Note also that, as we mentioned on the talents page, the damage of Dragon Roar drops off sharply if it hits more than one target, so if there is a "main" target you wish to prioritise, make sure Dragon Roar only hits that target.
6.6.6. Tier 6 Talents
Avatar should be stacked with Recklessness and Skull Banner at all times.
Bloodbath should be used on cooldown.
Storm Bolt should be used in different ways depending on whether or not you have a cooldown reduction trinket, and if yes, depending on how powerful it is. Also keep in mind that Storm Bolt does considerably less damage against stunnable targets (which most adds are), so unless killing those adds is a massive priority, consider saving it for the boss.
6.6.7. Proper Storm Bolt Usage
Storm Bolt is a powerful ability, and how you utilise it in your rotation will depend on certain factors, as will be outlined below.
- If you do not have any form of Evil Eye of Galakras, use your Storm Bolt on cooldown, with every other use being inside a Colossus Smash.
- If you do have an Evil Eye of Galakras, then ensure to use your Storm Bolt inside every Colossus Smash. Due to the cooldown being slightly misaligned with Colossus Smash, make sure it is always your first global cooldown inside a Colossus Smash (or at least as close to the start as possible). If necessary, delay Colossus Smash so that Storm Bolt will fit inside of it.
- If you do have an Evil Eye of Galakras, and it is item level 580, it is no longer of paramount importance for Storm Bolt to always be the first global cooldown inside of Colossus Smash. Instead, use it as a replacement for Raging Blow or Execute at the first possible opportunity, as long as it is within the first three global cooldowns. The reason for this is that the fourth global cooldown will cut it fairly close to Colossus Smash running out, and the travel time that Storm Bolt has could possibly make it not hit in time.
6.6.8. Bladestorm for Single Target
Due to recent theorycrafting findings, it has come to light that for Titan's Grip users, Bladestorm is actually the optimal single target talent, and therefore it is technically the best Tier 4 talent to take in every situation in this tier. The reason for this is that by using a cancelaura macro to end the Bladestorm on the 4th or 5th tick, you can spend the full allotment of time between two Bloodthirsts in a Bladestorm, and then immediately break the cast so you can re-cast Bloodthirst without delay. You should not use Berserker Rage to re-enrage before a Bladestorm, so that you can possibly skip canceling it early for Bloodthirst.
However, it is still advisable that on fights that have phases of both single and multiple target situations, you always save Bladestorm for the AoE situations. For example, you can use it for single-target in the first phase of the Heroic Thok encounter, as long as it will be up in time for using it on the Captive Cave Bats.
The last thing to note is that the usage of Bladestorm as a single target DPS gain is reliant on your weapon being as good as your overall gear. If your weapon is not as good as your average item level (such as it being 20 item levels below, for example), we recommend keeping Dragon Roar as your single target Tier 4 talent of choice.
6.7. Cooldown Reduction Trinkets
If you have a cooldown reduction trinket, this will reduce the cooldowns of your Tier 4 and 6 talents, Heroic Leap, Recklessness, Die by the Sword, and Shield Wall. This leads to a few changes in the way some of these abilities should be used.
Dragon Roar should be used on cooldown (either before or after a Colossus Smash window, but never during).
Recklessness should be used in different ways depending on how large the cooldown reduction is (this is determined by the item level of your trinket). If your Recklessness cooldown is greatly reduced, allowing you to use it every 2 minutes, then you should use it (after the initial use) at the 2-minute mark, and you should save your Skull Banner and use it together with Recklessness again at the 4-minute mark. If your Recklessness cooldown is greater than 2 minutes and (roughly) 15 seconds, then you are better off using it together with Skull Banner at the 3-minute mark.
In order to reduce the cooldown of Recklessness by enough to make it viable to use every 2 minutes, you will need a Flexible raid version of Evil Eye of Galakras with 2/2 item upgrades performed on it, or better.
Finally, if the cooldown of Storm Bolt is around 21.5 seconds, then you should delay it by a single global cooldown so that it can be your first ability inside a Colossus Smash window.
Make sure to read the previous section to understand the best usage of Storm Bolt.

The suit really doesn't stand a chance considering what Google has in place.
A Google representative said Friday that the company prohibits child pornography in its products and removes all such content whenever the company finds or is made aware of it. "We also report it to the appropriate law enforcement officials and fully cooperate with the law enforcement community to combat child pornography," spokesman Steve Langdon said in an e-mail.

It's been a while since we last heard from Anibal Automotive Design, but every time they revisit their series of Attack models and the aero kits fitted into them, we can't help but wonder why this Montreal-based tuner doesn't do more programs like this.
In any case, we'll take whatever they dish out any way we can get it. So when they released their new Attack program for the Porsche 911 , we stood up and took notice. The aerodynamic kit includes components built straight out of carbon fiber. There's also a striking contrast on the sports car's body, particularly the utilization of a silver finish on the body to go with a black carbon fiber hood.
As an added touch to the striking and downright stunning aero kit, Anibal Automotive Design added a new set of multi-spoke wheels to the 911.
According to Hani Harfouche, CEO and designer at Anibal Automotive Design, the Porsche 911 Attack is already scheduled for production. No concrete date has been announced for when the cars will go on sale, but we'll keep a close eye on when these amazing Porsche 911s are ready to be taken home.

Michelle's Story
My husband and I were in our late twenties when we first started trying to start a family. We had no idea that we would have so many problems and struggles to get there.
After many tests and two years of trying, it was discovered that my fallopian tubes were damaged, also that I had hormonal problems. We were sent to an infertility clinic with the knowledge that we may never have a child.
I was lucky enough to get pregnant on our first in-vitro try. However, before I knew I was pregnant, I became very sick from all the drug therapy. My ovaries were over-stimulated and I was in a lot of pain. I gained fluid rapidly and the doctors were very worried hat it would get into my lungs. I was very sick and scared. After a week in the hospital I began to feel better and was no longer at risk.
There I was, finally pregnant with our first baby! My husband and I were elated. Then, when I was six months pregnant, my mother passed away from complications of Lupus. She was only 48 and it was a very sad time for us.
Shortly after her death it was discovered that I was 2 cm. dilated and I was ordered off work. I focused all my energy on the baby and tried to keep everything tucked away. At seven months my water broke; three days later I delivered my baby girl. She weighed three pounds, ten ounces. I was so scared that she wouldn't be okay. Having her was a miracle in itself; now I needed the doctors to help us keep her. She was a fighter and came out breathing on her own, and thrived from that day forward. I was thirty one weeks pregnant when I delivered her and she came home at only thirty four weeks. My husband and I did a lot of "kangaroo care" with our daughter, stripping to our waists to hold her in close bodily contact, which doctors say helped her pick up on things more quickly and thrive.
Now our daughter is eight months old. She is a beautiful baby and is developing normally. It feels like so much had to happen in order for us to have her, but she has made our lives complete.

Is it allowed to hit below the belt in matches like this?
The groping sounds like it would technically be allowed, but, as she doesn't just kick his nuts, I doubt below the belt is a legal maneuver.

You won't have to unravel complicated commands or provide commands that work on some specific system. But you will have to walk into the exam with a fairly extensive amount of knowledge and some good test taking skills.
If you're thinking of going after your CISSP, I think you should consider taking a prep course with someone who can not only help you digest the material but can give you a lot of perspective on the test. My class was offered by UTSA (http://www.utsa.edu) but was offered in Delaware, not Texas.
The CISSP changes slowly and covers a lot of technology that you may never encounter, but it also provides a lot of perspective on how security is managed and provided -- and from a number of perspectives. The exam will cost you something like $600, includes 250 questions that you have to answer in six hours and you have to earn 700 points out of 1,000 possible points. The questions don't all count the same. In fact, some don't count at all and you won't know which they are. But preparing will give you a lot of background on what security is all about and passing might just open up some very promising career doors. The world needs more CISSPs running around and making things better. Maybe you'll be one of them!

Title: "Themes Observed and Lessons Learned in the NMAH Mathematics Collections"
Abstract: For over a decade, the Smithsonian Institution has gradually been digitizing catalog records for its 137 million objects and making them available to the public viahttp://collections.si.edu. More recently, staff members at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History (NMAH) have been organizing object records into groups and posting them as mini-exhibits at http://americanhistory.si.edu/collections/object-groups. Thanks to the generosity of slide rule collectors Ed and Diane Straker, I have been able to assist with both efforts for the past 27 months. This talk will provide a tour of the resources available on these websites, particularly as they relate to mathematics. Since my appointment is winding down, I will also utilize this opportunity to reflect on how we might better understand the history of mathematics by looking closely at object groups. These groups include slide rules, planimeters, sectors, protractors, dividers and drawing compasses, scale rules, parallel rules, and sets of drawing instruments—in all, over 650 objects and related documentation from the NMAH mathematics collections. [This is a completely different talk from my presentation at the AMS Eastern Section Meeting at Temple University in October.]

Title: "Topology and its history: must there be a separation?"
Abstract: A first course in point-set topology tends to not only be divorced from history, but also divorced from any other branch of mathematics in the minds of many students. This makes continued motivation of new topological concepts difficult. In contrast, the historical development of certain concepts provides automatic motivation and places the concept in its larger mathematical context. In this talk, we will outline a preliminary list of topics which trace the evolution of connectedness. Beginning with Cantor and a problem of Fourier series, we investigate the contributions of Jordan and Schoenflies, culminating in the current definition first given by Lennes. We share pedagogical suggestions to connect the thought of these mathematicians to build a coherent narrative which teaches some of the main properties of connectedness through part of its historical development.

Title: "Planetary Orbits and the Calculus Controversy"
Abstract: The conflict between the Newtonians and the Leibnizians is often portrayed as a dispute over priority for the invention of the calculus. It was that, but it was much more, since the participants differed on matters of substance concerning theology, natural philosophy, and mathematics. The first and second editions of Newton's Principia were published during this protracted conflict. By examining a few propositions about orbits and some continental reactions to them we can infer some of the differences between the two schools concerning mathematical methods and values.

Title: "Washington and Mathematics"
Abstract: There are many interesting things in the cyphering books that George Washington compiled as a teenager: His study of decimal arithmetic is straightforward, but understanding some of the errors he made can be fun. He had a technique for partitioning a plot of land into two equal pieces, bit it was wrong---and so was his source. Some things are hard to understand for time has passed them by. For example, his pre-Eulerian trigonometry is a mystery today, so we shall elucidate it. We shall present some pages of the cyphering books that the Library of Congress did not digitize because they were at Cornell, Dartmouth and the Historical Society of Pennsylvania.

Title: "Yours truly, D. F. Gregory"
Abstract: Duncan F. Gregory (1813-1844) was a proponent of the Calculus of Operations and a founding editor of the Cambridge Mathematical Journal. Extant is a series of six letters that Gregory wrote to a friend in 1839. This correspondence provides a glimpse into life at early-Victorian Cambridge, reveals something of the character of Gregory and his dedication to the CMJ, and shows some of the mathematical problems he pondered. In this talk, we will look briefly at Cambridge, Gregory and the CMJ, and will examine several of the problems.

Title: "The Turn of the Screw: The History and Optimal Design of an Archimedes Screw"
Abstract: The Archimedes Screw is one of the oldest machines still in use today. It is now enjoying renewed popularity because of its proven trouble-free design, its ability to lift wastewater and debris-laden water effectively, and its gentle treatment of aquatic life. Within the last decade it has also found a new application in the generation of electricity by being run backwards. In this presentation I will give a history of this device from Archimedes' time (3rd century BC) to the present day and also discuss my past and proposed research on the design of the Screw that maximizes the amount of water lifted or lowered in each turn of the screw.

Title: "The Architecture of Mathematical Institutes: A Comparative Study of Göttingen and NYU's Mathematical Institutes under the Leadership of Richard Courant"
Abstract: In this study of the cultural history of mathematics, I consider the architecture of mathematical institutes as historical artifacts. The buildings in which mathematical research and teaching take place offer incredible insight into the work practices, as well as social and cultural identities, of the mathematicians who inhabit these spaces. As a case study, I consider the career of the mathematician Richard Courant (1888-1972), who served as director during the construction of two world-class mathematical institutes – the first, in the late 1920s at the University of Göttingen (where he was exiled in 1933), and then in the 1960s at New York University. In both cases, I consider the buildings' planning, development, construction, and habitation processes, examining blueprints, committee meeting minutes, and correspondence between the mathematicians, university administrators, government officials and philanthropy representatives. Ultimately, I hope to explore how the built environment mattered to those whose work required a certain type of private workspace, desk, and chalkboard –situated in the right relationship to shared workspaces, a mathematics library, classrooms, and other scientific departments. What can the physical environment of mathematical institutes tell the historian about the work practices and social identities of mathematicians?

Title: "A Tentative Look at American Postulate Theory"
Abstract: American postulate theory is the body of work of several American mathematicians in the first few decades of the twentieth century, concerned with studying the structure of established mathematical theories by examining fundamental assumptions. They examined alternative postulational formulations and considered desirable features of a postulate system: consistency, independence, completeness, categoricity, brevity. John Corcoran, "On Definitional Equivalence and Related Topics," History of Symbolic Logic 1 (1980), 231—234, introduced the term "American postulate theory," identified some of its practitioners and suggested a need for historical study of their work. Michael Scanlan "Who Were the American Postulate Theorists?," The Journal of Symbolic Logic 56 (1991), 981—1002 and "American Postulate Theorists and Alfred Tarski," History and Philosophy of Logic 24 (2003), 307-325 identified others, compared two American postulate theorists to European contemporaries, and analyzed their influence on mathematical logicians. I will undertake a broader review, attempting at least partial answers to the following questions: Who contributed to American Postulate Theory? What were the characteristics of their research? Who or what influenced them? Were there mutual influences or rivalries among them? What influence did they have on other lines of mathematical research? Did a theory of postulation develop?

Title: "Tales of Nineteenth Century Russian Mathematics"
Abstract: The Moscow Mathematical Society, which grew out of a math circle, had its first meeting on September 27, 1864. It was founded with the purpose of promoting mathematical sciences in Russia. In a few years, it started the publication of the "Mathematichekij Sbornik, " the first Russian Mathematics Journal. The Moscow Society reflected the philosophy of the Moscow School of Mathematics which rejected the importance of applied mathematics and emphasized mysticism and spirituality, whereas the St. Petersburg School of Mathematics, influenced by the French school, saw the importance of practical applications in development of mathematical ideas.

Title: "Data-Driven Nonparametric Prediction Intervals"
Abstract: Prediction involves using one sample to make inference on some aspect of a future sample. In this talk, I'll consider the problem of using a simple random sample of size n to create a prediction interval for an independent future observation from the same distribution. Prediction intervals may be parametric or nonparametric, but I'll focus on nonparametric intervals. I'll describe the standard nonparametric prediction intervals, and I'll also describe new data-driven prediction intervals that outperform the standard intervals. Specifically, the new intervals are much shorter than the standard intervals when the distribution is skewed, and they are only slightly longer than the standard intervals when the distribution is symmetric. Coverage probabilities for the new intervals are determined by using a combination of new theoretical results, Monte Carlo simulations, and known results about Brownian motion and Brownian bridges. All needed background material will be provided.

Title: "Counting Upper-Triangular Nilpotent Matrices of a Given Jordan Type"
Abstract: The Jordan forms of upper triangular nilpotent matrices are indexed by paritions. Over a finite field of q elements, the number of matrices with Jordan form corresponding to a given parition is a polynomial in q. In this talk, I will explain how these polynomials can be calculated recursively. These polynomials are connected to certain q-rook polynomials, and I will show how the recursive formula gives a refinement of q-rook polynomials.

Title: "The Origins and Contents of de l'Hôpital's Analyse"
Abstract: Guillaume François Antoine de l'Hôpital's Analyse des infiniment petits (1696) was the first ever calculus textbook. It was also something of an enigma. For one thing, it was published anonymously, although de L'Hôpital's authorship was no secret. Also, it made no mention of the integral calculus: instead, its introduction to the differential calculus was followed by what can only be described as an advanced text on differential geometry, motivated by what were then cutting-edge problems in mechanics and optics.
However, the oddest aspect of this book is its genesis. The introductory chapters were based on Johann Bernoulli's Lectiones de calculo differentialium, lessons that only ever existed in manuscript form and were unknown to the scholarly community until 1921. De l'Hôpital received his copy when he hired Bernoulli to tutor him in 1691-92. Subsequently, he "purchased" the advanced material of the later chapters, in an arrangement under which he supported Bernoulli with a stipend in 1694-95.
In this talk, we will consider both the mathematics that was presented in the Analyse and the process by which in came into being. We will compare de l'Hôpital's exposition of the elements of the differential calculus with that of Bernoulli and examine some of the more advanced results presented in the Analyse.

Title: "Mathematical modeling, transmission dynamics and control of antibiotic-resistant infections"
Abstract: The emergence and spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria is considered to be one of the biggest threats to human health in the 21st century. In the last decade, mathematical models have been increasingly used as tools to identify factors responsible for observed patterns of antimicrobial resistance, to predict the effect of various factors on the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance, and to help design effective control and intervention programs. This talk focuses on the emergence of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci (VRE) infections that have been linked to increased mortality and costs in intensive care units (ICU). A new mathematical model is introduced, key factors are determined and simulations are produced. Optimal Control Theory is used to determine efficient and economically favorable strategies to prevent outbreaks and to control the emergence of VRE. Key controls included combinations of the levels of special preventive care, healthcare workers' complicance rates, and health and economical costs.

Title: "Hypotheticals, Conditionals, and Implication in Nineteenth Century Britain"
Abstract. Modern logicians ordinarily do not distinguish between the terms hypothetical and conditional. Yet in the late nineteenth century their meanings were quite different.and their tie to implication unclear. In this paper, I will explore the views of four prominent British logicians of the period, W. E. Johnson, J.N. Keynes, H. MacColl, and J. Venn on these issues.

Title: "Complexity and Chaos in Medieval Cartography"
Abstract: The source of the peculiar accuracy of certain medieval maps known as Portolan charts has been a mystery that has stumped scholars for hundreds of years. In this presentation I will describe the surprising accuracy of these maps, produced from 1250-1550, using mathematical models based on stochastic processes, like Brownian bridges, and transformational geometry. I will also show how the geometry of these charts develops out of the non-systematic nature of early navigational measurements and the chaotic shifting of the secular part of the earth's geomagnetic field, hints of which are encoded in the data used to make the charts themselves.

I have some different scopes your welcome to check out. 2x is awesome for learning though. Just make sure you get a scope with an up pin. you can remove the lens if you dont like it.
Thanks Rick, I am going to go without a lens and if I want to try one down the road then I will take you up on your offer.

That's the Maelstrom, and it was created as a result of the Well of Eternity collapsing. The Highborne ended up becoming naga as a result and that's where their capital city is. Also, it's supposedly where Queen Azshara would be if she were alive (RPG says she is, but there's nothing in game to prove either case).
That would be the Maelstrom, created during the Sundering.
It's the Maelstrom. When the Well of Eternity imploded and the single continent was split into Kalimdor and what are now called the Eastern Kingdoms, it collapsed and took a large portion of the continent with it.
More importantly, it formed the Rift, a massive rift at the bottom of the newly formed ocean. It's so massive, in fact, that it exposed the core of the planet (the interior of Azeroth is comprised of a region known as the Elemental Plains, and its core is actually a "sun"). This heated the ocean and caused a massive storm, called the Maelstrom, which is so fierce that it prevents most travel. It's been raging for thousands of years, and hides many islands and Nazjatar, the naga capital.
It'll likely be the feature of an upcoming expansion.

ARBOVALE, W.Va. (AP) — A 384-acre tract of farmland in Pocahontas County is being protected through a conservation easement negotiated with the West Virginia Land Trust.
The tract is bordered by the Monongahela National Forest and the National Radio Astronomy Observatory at Green Bank.
The Charleston Gazette reports (http://bit.ly/1gL0OTx) that the land is part of the Hevener Farm and has been managed by members of the Hevener family since 1851.
Officials say the easement allows the Hevener family to continue the family tradition of farming the land for generations to come, while protecting the tract from certain types of future development.

Glee - We can do 'ginger supremacy' but not ACTUAL racism, that's still fucking relevant and clearly at play on the very show??
We can talk about serious matters of bullying and homophobia and briefly on sizeism, but we cannot give serious consideration of what it's like to be a nonwhite student at a majority-white school, with majority-white teachers, with obvious majority-white biases at play, and make people's nonwhite cultures the butt of jokes, like "Asian F", "Asian Therapy", "Cocoa Babies", "Glee club, not crunk club", "fiesty, violent Latina who only speaks Spanish when mad", "lazy (though there's canonical proof over two seasons that's not the case)". Hell, you even sort of addressed it in S1 with "Throwdown", and then never bring that back up again - not even when the moment is handed to you, by your own pen, on a silver platter with that Rachedes conversation in Mercedes' SUV at the end of "Night of Neglect". Mercedes isn't stupid. She's observant, she knows how life works. Children of color learn those particular rules pretty damn quickly.
Those concerns? They're actually not fucking funny and they're not throwaway experiences or concerns. They eat away at you like acid, depleting whatever encouragement or self-esteem, or even self-efficacy one could've had before stepping into, what is actually, hostile environments. But they're subtly hostile, to the point folk have you convinced you're the crazy one and seeing things and your can't trust yourself to decipher what your own lived experiences are. Now we know why Emma has OCD, and I think that's actually a really compelling and moving reason; but can we discuss why Mercedes might be oversleeping and throwing up and having a lack of energy if she's not pregnant (and…I still don't think she's sexually active. Way for fandom to make that leap when it's Mercedes of all people)? Those are signs of depression, people. We got a little bit of the pressure Mike Chang's under, and it definitely added texture to his character. But Mercedes clinging to kind words, only getting kind words from people she's known for all of five minutes (both Lauren and now Shane) but not from her "family" even though, when it's mattered, she's always been there for them?
My parents always said black people have to be two times better to be considered equal, and my goodness if we haven't watched that play out for the past two and some change seasons. Mercedes finally called people out on that, then respectfully said "thanks, but no thanks" and got out of a relationship that was starting to be toxic to her. I'm proud of her for that. And yo, if they make this child come back begging while neither Rachel, nor Quinn, nor Santana had to do that after they quit/got kicked out, I'mma cry fuckery.
And no, I'm not putting this under a "read more". Read it. Do your mental gymnastics to deny what's been going on onscreen and in glee fandom.
"You got an Asian F?"
I hope you all are ready for an onslaught of feelings.
This storyline is going to be awful. I haven't watched this show since the end of S1 basically and I am not going to. But this storyline is going to be awful in the way that the other "Asian" storylines this show handles are also awful.
@thewaxlion, @eyre, and I were talking about our feelings the other day and especially about our feelings regarding our own experiences with self-policing with regard to Asian-American students in high school. (Obviously, parts of our own high school experiences.) I know people who have went to Stuyvesant High School, including some of my own family, and I have friends who attended other magnet high schools in DC where there are high proportions of Asian-American students and there is always this discussion that comes up about not being Asian enough. Which, of course, fits hand in hand with the model minority stereotype.
Which is why this storyline, if done properly, would be so important to me. I was that kid in high school who was like oh, you know, a C is an Asian F. And I have had talks and arguments and other things like that with my parents about grades going back to elementary school. WHICH IS WHY THIS STORYLINE WOULD BE IMPORTANT TO ME, IF DONE PROPERLY. Academic performance fits hand-in-hand with the model minority stereotype, and so it became this thing that we used to judge ourselves. Much like math. If you're bad at math, you're a "bad Asian." And that's just how the dialogue around Asian-American student … groups? people? goes a lot of the time.
And around tumblr and also in real life, I've heard people who've talked about how alienated they feel in environments where there are a lot of Asian-American students because it makes them feel like outsiders, isolated from this greater community. But that greater community - in high school - polices the shit out of itself. You can be too Asian - fobby - or you can be a bad Asian - "Americanized," bad at math, bad at school - etc. And obviously, there are a lot of people that fall between the two, myself included, but that always seems to be the line that's drawn. Good Asians, Bad Asians, Too Asian(s).
And this storyline is important to me because Tina, as a character, in the gifs that I have seen, in what I have seen of her in S1 is doing her own thing. She dyes her hair, she joins glee club, she isn't chained to her academic life - she does what makes her feel happy. And this is sort of the opposite tack because there was also an incident where she spoke out because she didn't want to eat chicken feet with his family every week - never mind that you are in Ohio, where are you going to eat dim sum every week? And also you wouldn't have chicken feet every night, but that's besides the point - but here, it's about grades.
And grades are always talked about but they're always joked about in high school hallways when part of it is because good grades mean you're a good Asian mean you're going to be successful and make your parents proud means you're the model minority. And it's all wrapped up in that but you're in high school so what do you know, and ha ha, you are so(/such a bad) Asian, isn't that funny.
And I'm not going to lie. I have a lot of weird internalized model minority ish, I'm positive I do, and I wish this show could sit down and have a frank talk about it because where else do we see an Asian-American teenage couple interacting and dealing with this shit? Nowhere else. In fact, I'd go out on a limb and say they're probably the only Asian-American teenage couple we've seen on primetime tv - with storylines! - in a while. And it's important that it gets talked about because it happens and nobody talks about it and it becomes this thing that you use to judge yourself.
Except that would be real talk.
And who would want that when you could make a joke instead?

The Rock Star's Guide to Eating, Praying, and Loving in the High Security State of Israel
Why Justin Bieber, Elton John, Madonna, and, yes, Alicia Keys, love to play Tel Aviv—and why Israel loves them back
There are several plausible explanations for this reverence Israelis of all ages feel for rock's dinosaurs, but chief among them is that perhaps Israelis feel about rock stars the same way rock stars feel about Israel. An act like Lady Gaga or Kaiser Chiefs can make Israel feel like just another normal country, but when artists like John or Stewart arrive and send tens of thousands of fans, of all ages and all walks of life, to their feet cheering, Israel feels special. It feels the same thing the visiting rockers feel when they check into the Dan Hotel, a special bond between country and performer, a bubble that, for a day or two at a time, pretends like the only thing that matters in the world is rock 'n' roll.
Which, pretty much, describes every day in the life of Shuki Weiss. When he was young, Weiss wanted to be a rock star; he stood in front of the mirror, strummed on his bass guitar, and howled happily. Soon, however, he discovered that his talents lay elsewhere, not on stage but behind it: With a general's attention to detail and a roadie's commitment to rock, he took over one of Tel Aviv's hottest clubs in the 1980s and turned it into a Mecca for visiting celebrities.
Celebrities, perhaps, isn't the right word. The performers Weiss attracted were, for the most part, a year or two or 20 past their prime. But having an uncanny feel for his audience, he realized that mattered little: What Israelis wanted was recognition, and they didn't need more than Ian Dury or Peter Hammill or John Cale, decades after his Velvet Underground heyday, to feel as if they've been admitted to the Family of Man. And so, while other producers did whatever they could to diversify their portfolios—not a bad strategy in a market as tiny as Israel—and took to managing local artists or producing television shows, Weiss focused mainly on attracting foreign entertainers. A decade or so into his career, he was the only game in town.
This, in part, has to do with the economics of putting up enormous concerts like those by Madonna or the Chili Peppers or any other of Weiss' productions. Because no insurance company in the world will sell an Israeli promoter a policy against possible cancellations—these, given the political climate and security situation, are far too likely to make the risk worthwhile—anyone wishing to put up a big, international show in Tel Aviv has to be able to take major risks. Others have tried and failed; Weiss persevered. In 2006, when Depeche Mode canceled their concert at the last minute because of the war with Lebanon, Weiss lost millions. Shortly thereafter, when Waters threatened to cancel his arrival, Weiss convinced him to play not in Tel Aviv's large park as usual for shows of that scale but in Neveh Shalom, a joint Jewish and Arab community. Because Neveh Shalom had no appropriate venue in which to mount Waters's extravagant and pyrotechnics-rich concert, Weiss had to strike a deal with a local farmer, promising to buy an entire year's supply of a nearby chickpea field for the rights to host Waters and his fans.
It's that kind of thinking that has made Weiss a successful producer, and that kind of thinking that has made Israel an unbeatable stop on the world tour of famous artists. Landing in Tel Aviv, pop's luminaries know that someone will always find a way to take care of them; just ask Justin Bieber.

Proud to announce our next release, a 12" by Oakland's Roman Ruins titled Homebuilding. We have pressed only 250 copies of this beauty on translucent milky white vinyl. The vinyl edition also is cut as a continuous A-side and B-side to highlight how the tracks were created.
Homebuilding is the debut album by 31 year-old Oakland-based songwriter and producer Graham Hil (Roman Ruins). Hill is an architect and landscape designer, with a thirst for methodical and process-oriented craft. Since 2008, Hill has played drums on tour with Beach House and Papercuts, and contributed to the recording of the former's critically lauded album, Teen Dream. The music on Homebuilding creates a sense of home, lyrically exploring the range of bonds that hold families together. Hill began constructing these songs while on tour in Europe in early 2010, daydreaming in the van about his pregnant wife at home. Following the birth of their son that summer, it became clear that Hill was ushering in a family of songs about the process of growing a home, both architecturally and spiritually.
The record will be released on February 28th, you can now pre-order the album. All pre-orders will receive the MP3 files before the release date.
The first track, "Mighty Love", premiered this morning on Ears of the Beholder and you can also stream/download through Soundcloud below.

For Immediate ReleaseLouisville Metro CouncilContact: Tony Hyatt 574-4137/526-3622 Stephen Haag 574-1204/645-1752Louisville – In 2011, Louisville Metro Police officers came across 107 meth lab locations in Metro Louisville. Not all were located in homes; some were along roads sides or in cars as part of mobile operations.
Right now, it appears 2012 will outpace last year's number of locations.
In an effort to protect neighborhoods and communities, LMPD and the South Jefferson Community Partnership of the Louisville Metro Alliance for Youth are offering three workshops on how to spot a meth lab in your neighborhood.
"Many of us on the Metro Council have done extensive work with police to get a handle on this problem," says Councilwoman Madonna Flood (D-24). "With the community's help, we can get to these labs before it becomes a major health hazard to unsuspecting people living near such operations."
"Anyone who thinks it happens somewhere else and not on my street would be wrong," says Councilwoman Vicki Aubrey Welch (D-13). "There is a great risk of children stumbling upon a garbage bag that was once a meth lab. The best course of action is to become informed about what a meth lab is and how you can help police fight this crime."
Council members Rick Blackwell (D-12), Bob Henderson (D-14) and David Yates (D-25) are joining Flood and Welch by encouraging residents and neighborhood groups to take advantage of the following three workshops:

Your Turn, NH: Some anti-gun arguments are so lame that one has to respond
Mostly, though, I feel like it is pointless to argue with a foe who has no regard for your personal views, experiences or positions on such a polarizing argument. However, once in a while, I get so bothered by a particular argument that I just have to say something, whether it makes a difference or not.
The new term trotted out by the anti-gun crowd is "military-style weapons." It has me shaking my head and wondering, "What in the world are they talking about?"
Any weapon used by a person in a combat situation is a "military style weapon." However, this cleverly crafted use of the English language is perfect to sway people with little knowledge relating to guns, but who have good intentions.
Just because a gun looks like one you might have seen in movies like "Rambo" or "Apocalypse Now" doesn't mean it is any more lethal than many run-of-the-mill hunting gun. Any old shotgun can put 17 pellets the size of a 32-caliber bullet in the air with every shot. A typical revolver takes seconds to reload with a speed loader. Don't know what I'm talking about? Then quite possibly you don't know much about guns.
Since when does the legislative branch legislate "style?" To me this is like saying you can't own a car that looks too fast. "Style" is subjective, something that might seem to you "stylish" could be conceived quite differently by me.
Another argument in relation to this bizarre position taken by the anti-gun crowd is this: You don't need an "assault weapon" or "high capacity magazine" to hunt deer. First, the Second Amendment says "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear rms, shall not be infringed." It does not say "the right to hunt deer." In fact, deer hunting is not a right. The use of the word "militia" obviously implies using weapons that would be useful in combat.
Second, where does the government get off telling me what I do or do not need? It could be said that you don't "need" a five-bedroom house, or a car that is capable of reaching 150 miles per hour. In a free society, I'm sorry, you can't tell me what I do or do not "need."
In Switzerland and Israel, citizen-soldiers bring their fully automatic rifles home. The home-invasion rate is quite low.
This is reflected in the contrast to U.S. cities. Honestly, would you rather invade a house in Massachusetts, where most people are unarmed, or in New Hampshire, where there is a good chance that someone might possess a gun (one useful in a combat situation), regardless of whether you choose to call it "military style?"

Mom Pleads Guilty to Training 12-Year-Old Daughter to Be Dominatrix
They entered new pleas Thursday in Kansas City. The woman will serve 15 years, and Barkau will serve 25 years.
The U.S. attorney's office in Kansas City says the case is the first in which a parent has been charged with the commercial sex trafficking of his or her own minor child.
Officials say Barkau and the woman -- who isn't being named to protect the identity of the daughter -- lived in Blue Springs when the 37-year-old Barkau began grooming the 12-year-old girl to become a dominatrix.
