Starting a Warden
I'm excited to become a columnist here at LOTRO Reporter as I love listening to the podcast and it gives me a different audience to focus on. For my first post here, I thought I'd step back a bit from my blog which is more focused on the end-game and write from a broader perspective. I will certainly cover some higher level content but at first I'm going to focus on getting started with the class as it is quite a different animal from the other classes currently in LOTRO. For those of you who want to know more about me, I just updated my About page on my blog with some more information such that I can jump right into the main topic.
Now the Warden class is one of the two new classes added with the Mines of Moria expansion and I think has been one of the more mis-understood classes in the game. For many reasons (which I won't go into now) there are many misconceptions surrounding the class and that was one of the primary drivers behind me starting my blog. My focus here will primarily be on helping folks as they level their Wardens and progress through the various stages of their development.
For the meat of this post I thought I would cover the first 15 levels or so of growth as a Warden with a primary focus on the gambit system. The Warden's main role is that of a tank, we can contribute to DPS, but in all honesty tanking is what we do best, and specifically tanking multiple mobs. Wardens have some ranged capabilities, but that's more of a supporting role and not expected to replace a Hunter or Rune-Keeper. However the way a Warden tanks is different from all other tanks in LOTRO, but that discussion is for another post. :) (I don't cover this specifically on my blog but these posts should help – Threat definitions, Wardens, Tanking Gambits, and Group Dynamics) The general differences lies in that we don't have any snap agro tools but instead build it over time and don't mitigate damage we avoid it or self-heal through it.
When it comes to racial choices, there are only 3 options available to Wardens – Men, Elves, and Hobbits. Like most other classes the reason for picking a particular class isn't going to make or break your Warden so the primary reason should be what race you enjoy most. For me, I mainly look at the racial trait abilities as the main distinguisher and as such all three have useful traits for Wardens. Hobbits can stealth and play dead, both of which can be very handy while solo but not as much in a group. Elves have their parry buff which can be a very handy oh-crap skill which Wardens don't really have. For me, I chose Men for their large heal as this is (in my opinion) the best racial oh-crap skill in the game. Men also do get a boost to their base block, parry, and evade which is another key thing for Wardens. Races do get a trait for bonus weapon damage so keep that in mind if there's a particular weapon you like best :)
Wardens work a bit differently from other classes in that their main skills are gambits which are a combination of various skills built up in a set pattern. While this does make our quick-slot bars a little easier to set up, it can be hard for some to learn all the combinations. By level 4 the warden has all 3 of the gambit builders:
- Quick-Thrust which adds a spear to your gambit
- Shield-Bash which adds a shield to your gambit
- Warden's Taunt which adds a fist to your gambit
These 3 builders are the building blocks for almost all of the wardens skills and abilities and as you build your gambits the Gambit Default skill will change to represent the appropriate gambit. These builders do have their own effects, but the true power of the class is not in these builders but in the gambits they can create.
- Quick-Thrust is simply a melee damage attack
- Shield-Bash does some level dependant common damage with a 15% chance to apply a block rating buff
- Warden's Taunt does some initial light damage and also applies a second light damage tick 4 seconds later. This is in addition to the initial taunt :)
Until level 16, Wardens can only build gambits that comprise of 2 builders so things start off rather easy – this does increase and at level 40 they can build the max length gambits which consist of 5 builders. There's really not much group content as you start off in Middle-Earth so this is a great time to get a feel for how the gambits work and the system in general. You will also unlock some of the initial traits available to Wardens, which I won't talk about here quite yet. (However, I do have a pretty lengthy post on my blog if you want to jump right in)
As you probably imagined there are only 9 possible combinations for length 2 gambits, but more importantly is starting to understand the patterns as that will be crucial to learning the class. All gambits starting with a spear () are focused on damage or interrupts, all gambits starting with a fist () are focused on generating agro or Damage over Time (DoTs), and all gambits starting with a shield () are focused on self-healing or defensive buffs. So as I walk through these initial gambits, I will also point out the pattern they start and what that "line" specializes in. The exception being the double builder gambits as those are only length 2 gambits – meaning there's not a spear, spear, spear gambit. Now some of the length 2 gambits don't quite follow the patterns you'll see me describe but they're at least somewhat similar. I will list these in the order that you can learn them with that level in parenthesis.
- (1) Deft Strike () pure damage attack
- (2) Defensive Strike () damage + block rating buff
- (3) The Boot () damage + chance to daze + interrupt. All gambits following this pattern are capable of interrupting inductions.
- (4) Goad () 3 target Area of Effect (AoE) damage and damage over time (DoT). This is also the first taunt gambit learned which has an initial taunt and a taunt over time (ToT) effect.
- (6) Persevere () damage + heal over time (HoT). All gambits following this pattern are HoTs with larger pulse values.
- (8) Offensive Strike () double melee attack with an initial threat component. This pattern continues as a purely melee damage line.
- (8) Impressive Flourish () DoT + HoT. However, this pattern changes as gambits going forward are threat transfers.
- (12) Precise Blow () damage + threat. Best single target threat gambit for wardens that provides initial threat and a ToT. This line continues with increased damage but not any increased threat.
- (12) War-cry () 10 target AoE DoT + HoT + threat. This is a good AoE threat gambit as it hits lots of targets with both an initial taunt and a ToT plus it does heal for a small amount. Now again, this line does diverge a bit as the continuation is a DoT with a threat component.
All DoTs and ToTs start off as 4 pulses (or ticks) spaced 4 seconds apart, and all HoTs start off as 4 pulses spaced 3 seconds apart. Both DoTs and HoTs have traits and trait line bonuses that can add additional pulses which come in real handy as it allows us to stack them more efficiently.
So that pretty much covers all the gambits you get initially and provides a good mix of offense, defense, and taunting. However, I will mention that tanking at low levels (even into your md-20s) is VERY hard for any class, let alone a warden so don't get discouraged if you struggle in areas like the Great Barrows. Hopefully my next post should help better prepare you for these early tanking experiences.
There are a couple other skills you learn during this time that are pretty significant for the Warden and really change their play-style. At level 10, 3 skills are available to learn:
- Ambush – ranged attack which stuns opponents
- Critical Strike – melee attack with high crit damage potential only available on stunned mobs
- Recovery – skill that clears all builders from your gambit. So this allows you to quickly switch gears if you were building something for damage and need to heal for example. Now granted, in some cases you can just fire off the current gambit and build the next but for some inductions and things like that you need to act fast!
The Ambush/Critical Strike combination can be a very effective way to start off fights as it allows you to front load lots of damage on a mob. Now, there are cases when it is better to use Ambush from range and just attack with our Javelin (especially when you get Wages of Fear at level 38 which does increased damage from behind) but getting into melee range quickly can be a good way to help minimize adds from wandering mobs. Either way, Ambush is a very useful skill and many Wardens (including myself) will use it in group situations to start off a pull. Critical Strike can either be used then, or mid-fight when you daze a mob with your boot :)
Now, at level 12 Wardens get their first stance which is a huge boost to our survivability as Determination significantly boost our In-combat morale regeneration rate. This stance really is your first step towards being able to do things on your Warden that you wouldn't think of on other toons, and is part of why Wardens are such a strong solo class. As you level there are a total of 3 stances (plus a legendary trait that combines them into one), each have their uses and will get covered as I progress. But for now, once you get this skill toggle it as soon as you can and never turn it off ;) Until you get another stance that you like better of course.
The other major shift comes at level 14 when we get our run buff (Forced March) and our stealth ability (Careful Step). Forced March can only be used out of combat and carries a hefty power penalty so be cautious using it in an area where you'll have to stop and fight as power will instantly become an issue – or carry LOTs of power pots ;) Careful step is pretty handy for the obvious reason of just avoiding mobs (it has a fixed duration sadly) but it also allows you to instantly use Ambush without waiting for its induction.
I'll wrap up with a very important concept to keep in mind as you start to get longer gambits, all of our HoTs, DoTs, and ToTs can stack with each other. Now ToTs of all kinds (even repeats of the same gambit) stack with each other, so that's why spamming Precise Blow can be a very effective way of keeping agro :) HoTs and DoTs don't stack with the same effect of the same length gambit, but different effects of the same length or the same effects of different lengths can stack. So, for example our HoTs, you can (and should get used to doing this) stack Preserve, Safeguard, Celebration of Skill, and Restoration all together such that each heal tick is a combination of them all. For DoTs I quite regularly will have the 3 Fist DoTs (Brink of Victory, Surety of Death, and Desolation) stacked with the 2 Spear line DoTs (Power Attack and Mighty Blow).
For my next post I'll spend time on the mid-levels of the Warden and offer some suggestions on tanking, traits, useful and useless traits and gambits, and also various other things you should be concerned with as you progress through the Lone Lands and towards the North Downs. Until then, feel free to contact me with specific questions, take a look at my blog as there's a bunch of info and resources there, or I highly recommend the Warden forums on LOTRO's main site as the Warden community for the most part is incredibly helpful.

I've just started a new duo pair with my GF and we went with me on a warden and her on a burg. I really apreciate the suggestions and tips for the class as it is by far the most cerebral of them all.
The biggest question I'be had so far is when and when not to use my auto attack. Is it better for a warden to forgo their auto attack when trying to build threat and then slow down and use the auto attack once they have it? Or should they rarely use their auto attack and try to get as many gambits off as quickly as they can?

Very nice guide!
I just started LOTRO last month and the Warden just seemed to suit my playstyle so well. However I couldn't find anything that just broke down what was happening and explained it as well as you just did. I do see I need to read up a bit more on Taunts and how they work in LOTRO.

Bridger, near Bozeman, MT, is a community owned ski hill. That alone eliminates a majority of the destination resort crowd. Bridger is definitely a skiers mountain. I put five stars in family friendly however, because every kid you see up there looks like they can ski better than you, and they probably do.
What Bridger lacks in high speed lifts, they make up for in terrain. Bridger's renowned ridge, accessed via Bridger lift or the new Schlassman's lift has some legendary terrain. Chutes, cliffs, trees, powder stashes, hidden gulleys; Bridger is up to their balls in steeps, and in snow. The legendary coldsmoke that characterizes Bridger's winters contains 1-5% water, very dry, champagne status snow. The new lift opened last season, Schlassman's, opens up serious terrain that used to take hours to hike to. With this serious terrain comes the requirements for an avalanche beacon to ride. This helps keep it segregated from those that might accidentally happen upon terrain they can't handle, but it also keeps it out of reach for poor college kids, namely me. Beacon's run between 150-300 dollars, and they recommend a shovel and probe in the backcountry as well. This adds to your backcountry costs by about 100 dollars.
Don't let that tear you from Bridger however, the inbounds terrain is still some of my favorite in Montana. The trees off Alpine lift and Pierre's Knob leave little to be desired, especially since they're accompanied by hidden stashes of powder. Bridger's also relatively cheap (compared to Big Sky or Moonlight, about 50 miles away), and provides a relaxed atmosphere conducive to drinking a beer and hitting the slopes.
Watch out for rocks on exposed days, because, like other resorts in Montana, they seem to breed like rabbits. Go to Bridger if you love to ski. Go to Moonlight if you love hot tubs.

Raw Milk Fast 2013 (Day 2)Raw Milk Fast
Day 2 of Raw Milk Fast 2013 went better for some and a little worse for others. How are you doing? Tired? Hungry? Energetic? Let us know in the comment section below.
To compare notes with Day 2 of Raw Milk Fast 2012, click here.
Paula: It would have been nice to rest and relax but it was another busy day at the box. I was not nearly as hungry as yesterday and ended up with just under a gallon; my body has adjusted and my energy levels, digestion and elimination are all working smoothly. I did a strength workout today–mainly very heavy squats and worked up to 160#–felt great, I followed with some foam rolling, a nice relaxing stretch and about 5 minutes of a decompressing savasana.
Even 5 minutes of deep breathing helps to combat the stressors of the day. The rest of the day was again very busy with zero downtime. I got home about 7:45 pm (a little later than usual) but it was so nice to not have to cook dinner. That is one of my favorite things about the fast–I don't always realize how much of my time is spent cooking/preparing food. While I love cooking it is a nice break. Off to a deep and restorative 8 hours of sleep. Nite nite.
Richard: Drank about 6 cups of milk with added tablespoons of raw cream today – the same as yesterday. This seems to be the right amount for me. Feeling great overall. Excellent energy and focus.
Had a small boil emerge on my thigh which is an indication of detoxing going on. This is a normal occurrence for me during detoxification. It happened when I had my root canals removed and again when I had my amalgams removed years ago.
The fast is obviously doing its work!
Sarah: I was relieved that I didn't experience much if any hunger throughout the day today. Such a relief after yesterday's struggle with extreme hunger all day long even though I drank just shy of an entire gallon of raw milk!
No sign that any detoxification is going on though – no headaches or other symptoms of cleansing. Just feel great overall with excellent energy.
My friend Lori came over and gave me an hour and a half massage today at lunchtime. Ahhhh! Totally wonderful.
Rested afterward and took in a lot of milk to provide adequate fluids. Massage can release a lot of toxins so taking in enough fluids is really important.
Sat out in the sun for awhile during the afternoon as it was such a beautiful day. Basically took most of the day off and just relaxed which was definitely just what the doctor ordered.
The hardest part about today was making dinner for my kids. I made barbecue chicken wings plus veggies and the smell was delicious! I think, hands down, the hardest part of a Raw Milk Fast is cooking for others when you won't be eating any yourself.
I managed to get through dinner hour by sipping on milk the whole time. Consumed 12 cups for the day. 2 cups were raw goat milk and the rest were raw cow milk. Hit the hay about 10:20 and slept soundly.

Can I do a raw milk fast while breastfeeding a 22 month old?
Hi Sarah,
I think that your website may have been hacked. I just received dozens and dozens of the same email from your site entitled , " 12 year Vegan ….. " . It may have been hacked by those who are the enemy of raw milk availability to an extreme degree – the pasteurized milk industry and their helpers .
Peggy Allen
I am on day 2 of the fast–decided to join in on the event since we have dairy goats and make kefir and cheese–also wanted to take the opportunity to get un-addicted to coffee! It's going ok, I expected a worse headache this am from lack of coffee. I did fine on 6 cups of goat milk, 2 cups of kefir, 1 glass of watered down homemade kombucha and 1 cup of hot herbal tea (nettle, black cohosh, myrtle). Today I may add some chevre (no pesto). Already I have had 4 cups of milk and 2 of kefir by noon. Definitely hungrier!

Hang on, are you only drinking raw milk for a week? Or jot drinking raw milk for a week? Or something else?
The plan is to drink raw milk while eliminating all other foods. It would be according to your individual situation and your doctors advice whether or not to take whatever meds and supplements you usually take. Drinking water in addition to the milk would be fine and good if I understand correctly.
Oops. forgot to share about how much I'm drinking. I didn't really keep track but I know it was less than half gallon each day, so far.
I did fine with day one and day two as far as hunger and energy go. In fact I had some extra energy yesterday (day two) compared to my norm. I do have a concern though. Elimination. It seemed to be trying to completely stop although I did finally manage to have a BM. It was hard and difficult and quite a solid ball shape albeit, mostly whitish. So far today there has been no movement at all, just an occasional feeling of the need with no results. Sorry for the TMI but I'm hoping for some feedback from experienced raw-milk-fasters. I had been on GAPS since last October and had added raw milk in throughout this year. But I have never done a milk fast before.

Today is day one for me planning on doing a 10-30 day fast. Went to the dairy for 2 weeks supply of raw milk. So far, I feel great! I <3 raw milk!!
Tom Beattie via Facebook
The grass here in Ga is not yet rapidly growing. I will have to wait a couple of more weeks before I can do this.
Sarah Winson
Day 2 has been easier for me. I've been putting the milk on the counter to get room temp first and I find it is MUCH easier to digest and not nearly as much gas! I actually crave the milk when I'm not sipping it! LOL Don't really feel hungry either! I do have a migraine today, but they are fairly common for me so not sure if it's from detoxing.
Would you recommend this for weight loss? I am tired of the yo-yo diet and I generally lump fasting in with that, but it sounds like the Milk Cure could heal issues which cause weight gain.
Day two – drank about 12 cups of milk and never really struggled with hunger. My struggle was with the desire to eat even in the absence of hunger. As salmon pies baked in the oven for my family, I had to hide away with my milk and a good book! Mid afternoon, I took a long hot bath with salt and baking soda. Nothing seems to be happening except strong urine odor and some halitosis so I will add water for Day 3 as I have been drinking milk exclusively. Oh yes, weight is down by two pounds. I may go beyond Day 3 to see if elimination will become regular and if detox will start. I'm assuming since this is my first cleanse/fast of any kind in my life – that I'm full of junk. I'll go back and read the diaries from previous years to see when all the detox symptoms kicked in for other people.
Ditto with the urine and halitosis. I would love to know if that's normal across the board or just a symptom of detox when there's an overload of toxins in the system. Or something else entirely.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has done a milk fast or diet while breast feeding and what were your results.
side note: I sipped raw milk throughout my 44 hour labor, I gave birth standing up, with one foot on a chair and felt as though I could have done another 24 easily. It gave me the perfect amount of energy and strength for that Iron woman event. BTW, my little Hammie was 10lbs.
That's great, need a +one button or something.
Finished my three days yesterday. I was busy all the days, so it went by quickly. We do a lunch at my church once a month, and it happened to fall on Wednesday and Thursday during the fast. I was pleasantly surprised that I didn't even have the urge to quit and eat. I probably drank 8 cups of milk a day. I also drank herbal tea and komboucha.I had a slight headache the first day, but it left quickly. It was due to the fact that I gave up caffeine.. I didn't workout until this morning. It was a pretty tough run. I'm down about 4 pounds, which I needed. At 5'9″ and 160 i feel better at a lower weight. I think I'm going to do the fast every other week for the three days.

Curious what the benefit of this kind of fast are?

I agree, the hardest part was making food for my family.

Second day went really well, although I still had cravings, especially when cooking the meal for the rest of the family. Noticed I had really awful BO. Had an Epsom salts bath which made me sweat a bit more. Slept really well.
Darn, I missed the start of this by not reading the blog this week. A longer warning next year, please, for those of us who avoid the evils of Facebook. I guess I'll start tomorrow and do it alone. I did a few days last year and enjoyed it, but I had access to only a few gallons of milk. This year, I've moved to a state where I can buy it in the store so I can drink as much as I want. Best wishes to everyone.

I haven't got to start. The cows aren't ready.
Day two wasn't bad until I got home from work. I had planned to do some light cycling, but I had zero energy, and the couch was calling me. At this point I decided that 48 hours was enough, so I had some brothy soup and a small salad (I chewed the heck out of it! haha). I'm still going to be doing mostly liquids and soft foods today, interspersed with milk to make the transition smoother. I feel like this process is very good for my digestion, but I did notice this time that my throat got a little mucus and my sinuses were impacted a bit, too.

Erie-area law enforcement pays attention to 'Jay Reed' Facebook pages
The judge fired questions at the 15-year-old boy.
How the teen answered could determine whether Judge John J. Trucilla sent him home to serve probation or placed him in a juvenile detention center for his role in a robbery.
Who, Trucilla demanded to know during a recent hearing in Erie County Juvenile Court, gave the boy the marijuana he had admitted he smoked constantly?
What was he doing before the robbery?
Who was he with?
Despite insistent questions raining down on him from the judge, the teen was not talking.
Then the youth's lawyer, Assistant Public Defender Emily Stutz, explained.
Her client, it turned out, was more afraid of a popular Facebook page than anything Trucilla could do to him.

CNBC's Bob Pisani looks ahead at what's moving in early morning trading, including steel stocks, industrials and more. » Read More
We noted last week the mantra of the bears: in a real bear market, even the market leadership eventually gets taken out. And that prophecy appears to be coming true. Quietly, traders have been selling the energy and materials stocks, which were the market leaders.
The more gas that drillers need brought to market, the more money Spectra makes.
Plus, is Cramer responsible for food inflation? And coming clean on Watts Water Tech.
It was an ugly first half for the stock market and now that the goal posts have been moved for the economic recovery, expect a rough game in the second half.
What follows below is an unofficial transcript of my interview last night with James Hackett. Mr. Hackett is the president & CEO of Anadarko Petroleum. He also happens to be an incredibly bright man whose thoughts and ideas on energy are right on the money.
With growing talk about peak oil — when the globe's petroleum reserves begin an inexorable decline — exploration companies are increasingly turning high-tech to delay this eventuality. There's been stunning advances in the industry's ability to visualize what lies deep underground and to extract more of what's down there.
Don't think a plateau in oil stocks means the end of an energy run.
A key bill suffered a setback in Congress today. Here's how it affects you.
There's nothing wrong with riding the coattails of big shots like Carl Icahn – but only if you've done your homework first.
Despite what you heard, this show is not just about stock picks. Find out what you should really be taking away from Cramer's recommendations.
Sure, you can cry about high gas prices. But Cramer has a better idea.
Oil prices will continue to roil the stock market this week as the summer driving season officially kicks off and as more companies feel the pinch of higher energy prices on their profit margins.
Skyrocketing oil prices, the threat of recession and continued housing slump are all pointing to a rough summer for the markets. Still, there are opportunities for investors.
This infrastructure play is making big moves into wind power. Get in before Wall Street catches on.
Others in the oil sector would do well to imitate this strategy, Cramer says.
The Lightning Round is extended in this CNBC.com exclusive feature.
Risk aversion is definitely back today. You can see it in the dollar/yen, where the yen has really strengthened today. The AIG news (down 8 percent) told us that a lot of the bad news is still not priced in. Big momentum stocks like Visa, Mastercard, Nucor, US Steel, Anadarko, Apache, Bidu, Apple, and Google all saw profit-taking today. But here's the big problem: oil closing up five straight days, closing at a new high.
Don't count this company out like Cramer did. It's making a comeback.
This fuel could be the key to America's energy independence, he says.
Following are the day's biggest winners and losers. Find out why shares of NYSE Euronext and AMD popped while Sara Lee and Qwest dropped.

Research Institution:
AbstractCurrent radiation detectors used in nuclear physics are typically capable of detecting only one type of radiation well. Therefore, the systems in use require a number of individual detectors for each type of radiation. Furthermore, fast neutron spectroscopy is often very challenging. The research proposed here will allow development of nuclear detectors that provide neutron and gamma ray spectroscopy with high energy resolution and linearity. The goal of the proposed effort is to develop a single detector capable of detecting multiple modes of radiation (gamma & amp; neutron) with spectroscopic capabilities. The Phase I project will be aimed at demonstrating the feasibility of detecting multiple modes of radiation with a single scintillation detector. The particular focus of the Phase I research will be on investigation and optimization of fast neutron detection. Commercial and Scientific Potential: A system capable of detection multiple modes of radiation will easily find use in nuclear physics experiments. Moreover, fields such as homeland security, health physics, and material sciences will benefit from this system.

PAWTUCKET, R.I.,� Providence Mayor Angel Taveras announced today the endorsement of retired Pawtucket Mayor James E. Doyle, Rhode Island State Senator James E. Doyle II and two-thirds of the Pawtucket City Council.
�I understand many of the challenges that Angel faced upon coming into office � and the kind of leadership that was required to see Providence successfully through,� said Doyle, who retired in 2010 as Pawtucket�s longest serving mayor. �I have been very impressed by what Angel has accomplished during his tenure in Providence and look forward to seeing him bring this same leadership to the State House.�
Sen. James E. Doyle II (D-Pawtucket) added, �When Angel first took office, there were many in the General Assembly who thought that bankruptcy might be unavoidable for Providence. But by bringing groups together to come to a compromise and working with the General Assembly, he was able to help turn the city around and put it on firm financial footing.�
Additionally, Taveras was endorsed by the following members of the Pawtucket City Council:�Councilman Jean Philippe Barros (District 5), Councilman Terrence Mercer (District 3), Council President David Moran (District 1), Councilor At Large Lorenzo Tetreault, Councilor At Large Albert Vitali, Jr. and Councilman Mark Wildenhain (District 2).

The individual who finalized this weekend's scrap between legendary boxer Wladimir Klitschko and Alexander Povetkin said Tuesday that the Russian challenger "does not know what fear is." The 37-year-old Klitschko (60-3, 52 KOs) will defend The Ring, WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO heavyweight belts against the 33-year-old Povetkin (26-0, 18 KOs) Saturday at the SC Olimpiyskiy arena in Moscow. "I really like (Alexander). He's a great fighter, but also a genuinely good man. It's a rarity today.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Mar 01st, 1985
Running Time: 80
Director: Ned Morehead
Company: Dreamland Home Video
Cast: Harry Reems, Herschel Savage, Tom Byron, Ginger Lynn, Susan Hart, Peter North, Traci Lords
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Film
When I went to college at Temple University in Philadelphia, they never had extra-curricular activities like the ones found in Sister Dearest. The story revolves around a visit by Tom Byron to his old alma matter. He goes back to visit the frat house where some of the wildest things that could happen to a young man actually did.
Traci Lords delivers a powerful performance (then again her mere presence does it for me) as Byron's older sister, who just happens to be the campus slut. Some of the situations she finds herself in will leave even the most jaded adult video viewer breathless. She proceeds to take on the entire fraternity, campus and faculty by herself or with the help of her two gorgeous friends Ginger Lynn and Susan Hart.
As a special added treat, Harry Reems makes a cameo appearance as a concerned art professor who helps student Susan Hart with her painting. She needs little help with her upward and downward strokes.
One of the more interesting aspects of Sister Dearest is the frat parties and mis-goings-on with all the hilarity and excitement of Animal House. The characters are similar, but unique in there own way, even without a toga party.
In the meantime, Byron is faced with the serious dilemma of being a virgin in a fraternity where their motto is "throw down the books and pick up the women." He feels totally inadequate and his brother tease and even haze him into desperation. Alas, big sister comes to the rescue in an incestuous romantic interlude that outshines all.

Deal Immediately Cuts Unfunded Liability from $300 Million to $161 Million
Note: The Pension Task Force unanimously approved the proposal at today's meeting held at the offices of Commerce Lexington.
Click here to read the Pension Sustainability Consensus Proposal Presentation to Task Force.
Lexington, KY - Lexington's police and fire pension, which has a $296 million unfunded liability, would be comprehensively reformed and set on a sustainable path under a consensus plan agreed to late last night by Mayor Jim Gray, representatives from the police and fire unions and two representatives from the pension board.
Introduced by the city's pension consultant, PFM, at a Pension Task Force meeting today, the plan would immediately cut the city's unfunded liability by approximately 45%. The plan includes lower annual cost-of-living adjustments, increased contributions from active and future employees and a remodeled new-hire plan. The city has agreed to increase its payments to the Policemen's and Firefighters' Retirement Fund by $9 million a year and bind itself to paying down the unfunded liability over 30 years. PFM is a national public sector financial advisory firm.
Under this agreement, Lexington would not need to issue the $34 million bond that narrowly passed the Urban County Council last year. That bond was to cover the city's minimum required payment of $29 million to the pension fund this year.
Under the new plan, the city's annual payments would be $20 million per year, up from the $11 million per year it had been contributing supplemented by pension-obligation bonds. The new payment schedule and methodology shifts the city's payment plan from interest-only to paying down the principal. Paying down the unfunded liability over 30 years without the benefit changes would have cost the city $34 million a year.
The plan will be put to a vote by the police and fire unions. To be implemented, it would need to be adopted by the state legislature during the current session.
"This is a comprehensive, honest and responsible way to put our police and fire pension system on an affordable, sustainable path while preserving a dignified retirement for our police officers and firefighters," Gray said. "Across the country, cities and states are wrestling with pension reform. Only in Lexington will you find a solution reached by consensus, through shared sacrifice. This could not have happened were it not for the hard work of police and fire representatives, including Rob Sarrantonio, Mike Sweeney, Chris Bartley, Drew Short and Larry Kinnard."

Work your way down from the shoulders to the chest, using safety pins and zip ties to hold your designs in place. Now would be a good time to make sure all of your designs are neatly and correctly done. Don't sew anything in place just yet; just apply safety pins like I mentioned earlier and make sure your plan is satisfactory.
This step is where your designs become permanent. Cut holes throughout the costume with the X-Acto Knife, weaving the EL-wire through those holes. When this is done, sew the wire into the costume with the translucent thread. Something to keep in mind is that your stitch work doesn't necessarily need to be flawless, but ensure that it gets the job done. Remember, this costume is intended for a dark setting!

Featured positive reviews:
I was drinking a lot of wine this past year and decided I needed to give my body a rest. One major problem was that I used wine at night to keep falling back to sleep; also, I noticed that the only time I seemed to feel cheerful was after 2 or 3 glasses of wine. My husband found a paper on how alcohol and drugs disrupt your neurotransmitters, and they don't rebuild quickly once you stop any substance, so he bought this for me and I have to say, I soon noticed I was happier, calmer and could sleep longer. Since the PM upset my stomach a little I stopped taking AM & PM after a month and within a few days my mood slipped. I'm back on both and taking it with food (also the Super Omega) and my moods went right back up the next day. I highly recommend this product and am so grateful my husband found it!
Your "magic medicine" Brain Recovery AM/PM Formula helped me through a wild summer last year! It was all related to my addiction to prescribed pain medication, oxycontin, for chronic arm pain. To make matters worse, as a side effect of the drug, I had horrendous sleep apnea (I stopped breathing 60 times every hour at night), to the point where I was falling asleep mid-conversation, or behind the wheel at a red light. I couldn't watch a movie or a play without falling asleep, and my marriage was in serious jeopardy because half the time, my wife was chatting with a zombie.
Then I stopped the oxycontin. Almost overnight I found I could stay awake all day no problem, and I'd sleep through the night wonderfully. It was like being reborn. And I haven't had a problem since!
Also, for whatever reason, I used to get the hiccups three or four times per day. I haven't had them since July of last year.
So how did I get off the oxycontin? I went into forced codeine (oxycontin) withdrawal when I left my pain medication at home when I went out of town. After five days in New York with no sleep, wild sweats and horrors too brutal to even tell, it took a while to get my system working, even once I got home. Then I called you [a friend of the family], and you recommended Brain Recovery AM/PM Formula daily, along with CALM Natural Mind pills as needed.
From the start, when I took the Brain Recovery packets along with the CALM pills, my head got clearer, my appetite normal, and I'd just feel human again. Eventually, by the time I started my new job in late August, I think I was about 90% recovered. I'd had no idea that the pills my doctor kept prescribing me were wreaking such havoc on my body.
At home we called around and I was told I should get on methadone to help with withdrawal symptoms. Happily, I listened to you instead and was able to get through that difficult time without developing a new addiction or further damaging my insides.
I hate to think of where I'd be now if not for you and your amazing supplements!
I'm happy to say that I haven't taken anything stronger than an Advil for pain since then.
When my arms hurt, I've found other ways to deal with the pain. You've been a huge help with this, and I can't thank you enough. I'll forever be in your debt for helping to make last summer more manageable with the Brain Recovery and CALM!
This/these products (AM&PM) have helped me to get back on track with my supplement program. I used to take a lot of different supplements but got tried of taking and combining a lot of different things and stopped. Dr Cass's combinations enabled me to get back on track with my my supplement needs by combining all the needed nutrients in an easy to use combination. I have been on her regimen for about 3 weeks now and have found that they work very well. I have been using them mainly as I get off of the remaining pharmaceutical meds that I have been on and have found that I have been able to reduce my use of those very effectively by adding these supplements. I intend to keep using these combination supplements as long as I need to as I free myself from my dependence on pharmaceuticals.
Ordered this supplement in the hopes that it would improve my mood & health. I have been suffering for more than 8 years with poor energy production, feeling depressed, and having physical discomfort on a daily basis that was so severe that I needed to take meds to handle it.
After taking this supplement for only two days I am amazed by the results - my daily discomforts have almost vanished entirely, I no longer take pain killers, and my energy production and mood are almost back to normal.
This supplement really works and has changed my life entirely, I have been taking them for almost three weeks and I feel better with each day that passes. Thank you so much for creating this amazing supplement, will definitely recommended it to everyone I know!!
I have been taking the 7 AM pills with breakfast and the 7 PM pills with dinner for the past 2 weeks. I am feeling so much more chill and dare I say "balanced". I no longer have chocolate cravings or any carb cravings for that matter. I have always desired a sweet (cookies, pastries, cake, pie, etc.) after dinner but I don't even think about them any more. Well worth the cost and yes, I will be re-ordering. Thanks for an amazing product!
After months of sobriety from various stimulants, I was still sleeping poorly and felt exhausted. However, within a week of taking Dr. Cass' Brain Recovery AM&PM formula, I was amazed to find that I was able to fall asleep easily and deeply. I woke up rested, and my energy and focus lasted all day. I noticed that I was dreaming, too, which I hadn't for a long time. I felt as if my brain was restoring itself!
Hyla's Brain Recovery Formulas are amazing! I had tried 3 times in the past 20 years to rid myself of the need for my meds. Although I followed ALL the suggested protocols for doing so, my problem always returned with a vengeance. It's clear to me that these formulas were the missing component in my efforts. I am finally, after so many, many years, drug free! Thank God!
I absolutely love the products of Dr Cass'. I have been using the brain recovery AM and PM as directed along with the brain cell support, and have noticed a dramatic difference in my concentration levels and enthusiam. Also use the calm products as required to help with daily stresses that poop up as part of life. Highly recommend these products.
My doctor wanted to prescribe antidepressants but I was afraid of the side effects, and of being dependent on medication, so I tried Dr. Cass' Brain Recovery Nutritional Program and in a month, I was back to the old me, and haven't looked back since."
I have been taking it for about a week and so far I am able to sleep through the night much better. I have been recovering from withdrawal and I am hoping for even better results given more time. So far, I think it is a very good product!
I have been taking the Brain Recovery formula for 10 day now and have already noticed an improvement. I'm sleeping better and my temperment is much more stable. I also appreciated the quick delivery time. Thank you!
My wife has been taking brain recovery for a year now. I can see a big improvement in her day to day activities. She said she can really tell the difference in her overall attitude and wouldn't be the same without it.
I noticed a difference within the first 2 days of taking this am/pm formula. Easier to focus, more alert and able to maintain concentration for longer periods. I highly recommend it!
Best I have experienced ever. Noticed cognition improvement in two days. In three weeks noticed increased sex drive. At age 72 both are huge to me.
My wife takes this product every day and we can really notice a change in her day to day attitude. This product is very good.
LOVE THIS PRODUCT. It is helping me feel more mentally and emotionally balanced, and get on a regular sleep/ wake schedule.
Using this supplement while I am tapering and I believe it has made the transition much easier. I feel good.
Love all of these products. They have been making life feel balanced and whole.
fast and prompt delivery, products are exceptional! A bit pricey though!
These are great supplements and the delivery is quick and easy!
Helps get your mind right. Very good for sleep.
This product is expensive but effective.

Focus: It's a natural "stimulant" or "caffeine substitute." Click here
Energy Balance: A mild energizer, it also contains adaptogens to support the adrenal glands. Click here
Take 1 - 3 Capsules of either or both Focus and Energy Balance in the morning and for that mid-afternoon energy slump.
If you still tend to be anxious, irritable and easily stressed, take:
CALM: 2 capsules, 2-3 times daily (up to 6 daily). CALM is a great end-of-the-workday supplement and pre-bedtime relaxer. Click here
Nightly CALM: This is CALM, plus the proven sedating herb, valerian. Take 2-3 at bedtime. Click here
5-HTP: If you experience low moods, anxiety and have trouble sleeping and staying asleep you are likely low in serotonin. 5-HTP will provide the raw material needed to make serotonin in your brain. Take 5-HTP 100 mg, 1-3 capsules 1/2 hour before bedtime. If you are taking an SSRI antidepressant, check with your physician, since there is a rare risk of serotonin syndrome. Click here
Brain Cell Support Plus: If your memory and cognitive abilities are not what they used to be (what you'd like them to be) take 2 capsules with breakfast and 2 with lunch or dinner. It provides the materials needed to enhance memory and cognition. Click here

Kentucky coach Joker Phillips is not interested in giving any
thought to how young the Louisville Cardinals are.
Phillips says the game will be an "old-fashioned,
roll-up-your-sleeves and get after each other" kind of game
between the Wildcats (2-0) and Cardinals (1-0), regardless of the
players' ages.
Age is important to Cardinals coach Charlie Strong, though.
After losing 25 seniors from last year's team and looking somewhat
unimpressive in a 1-1 start, Strong is still looking for some
confidence from his squad, one of the youngest in the nation.
Snapping a four-game losing streak to the Wildcats on Saturday
night in Lexington in the annual Governor's Cup showdown might just
create some confidence for the 23 Cardinals who have made their
college football debuts in the past two weeks.

MEXICO CITY (AP) - Authorities in central Mexico say a newborn baby girl who was declared dead but later revived inside her coffin has died.
Hidalgo state attorney general Jose Rodriguez says the baby died of asphyxia, three days after being declared dead the first time by a doctor in the town of Tulancingo.
The baby was born prematurely on Monday and declared dead by a doctor.
Rodriguez said Thursday that during the wake the baby's parents heard a strange noise coming out of her little coffin and when they opened it found the baby crying. He said the baby was in stable condition in a hospital.
But on Friday Rodriguez told a press conference the baby had died Thursday night.
The doctor who declared the baby dead the first time is under investigation.

How many people still play this online?
Thinking about going back just to 10th prestige... this and WaW
Wouldn't bother. Tried playing online on WaW the other day and there are people running around with mods on left right and centre. I had to back out of a game because some guy had invinicibility on. In Cod 4 you can get under the maps etc etc, those games are totally ruined now :(
HAHAHA I actually went back to see how this game was since I never really played it online when it originally came out. Strangest thing ever. I can see why it because such a hit but man after playing MW3 or even 2 you can truly see the advancements that were made. Although I gotta admit it was nice to only have 3 or maybe 4 killstreaks and thats it.
ive been playing cod4 alot and need to 55 urgently!! i need someone to boost still at lvl 43....
me !! i do, i do !
all the time.
join me whenever :D
yea when some uses a mod or hack it just ruins the game:mad: but i find a few games that dont have anyone with mods or hack:).
Hey guys is this game totally overun with hacks and mods now? Just I really wanna get it for 360 used to have it on ps3 and to me was the best COD there was. Just on the ps3 last time I played I got infected off a host and totally ruined it :( is this the case on xbox also?
Thanks for quick reply. Also I didn't know someone already asked this further down in forum *facepalm* but back on track that's awesome I think I will defo be buying this game again :D
Just beginning
I'm really missing this game and I'm thinking about getting it again. So how's the situation about modders/cheaters? Is it still overrun by these douches? I used to play HC modes, so how's the population? Cheers guys!
So many hackers :( I can even deal with people being on things they should be able to cuz I can still kill them, but not much I can do when people are under the map or invincible or crap like that
Unplayable FFA, the introduction of quick scoping, shit maps and numerous other crap. MW3 is better, but still not a patch on the original.
I decided to give it another go yesterday after three years. Id heard that it was full of dodgy stuff. So played on a 2nd account after finding a 48 hour gold trial.
Yesterday was fine. Just as good as I remembered. Nearly had an accident I got so excited when Overgrown came up.
Today, some dodgy stuff. The left side of the screen suddenly got flooded with multi coloured text. Something about joining infectedxbox.com and numerous numbers with infected next to them. Also several people that were different prestiges every level.
Been having trouble with Party Chat all evening so im hoping thats just a random bug and not because ive been playing in some dodgy lobby.
I jump in from time to time, usually its modded but sometimes you find guys just having fun on the old girl. COD 4 was one of my favorite games, so its nice to find others enjoying it still.
...But yeah, the Modders will seriously ruin the fun so sometimes its not worth it.

I have taken the plunge to add Just Map It to my site network songofshambhala.com.

I have created tags for about 140 of the main sites 500 posts and while I can see where the map should be displayed, I don't see a map. For instance here on this "mandala" post http://songofshambhala.com/book-of-sources-sos/#mandala-qwiki-post/
Can you advise me on what might be wrong? I want to make sure it will work before I create tags for the remaining posts.

I'm using the jQuery UI Datepicker with these options:
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
minDate: new Date(-2206281600*1000),
maxDate: new Date(1298653687*1000),
yearRange: '1900:2011'
Works pretty well. The month and year are displayed as 2 side-by-side
<select> boxes. The problem is, we're only in Feb of 2011. So when the user goes to enter their birth date, to say, Dec, that month isn't available yet. They have to choose their year first before the month becomes selectable.
How can I get into to display all 12 months, even if those months aren't valid options for the current year?

I have a bold idea where a user could take an image like the following
and in a few seconds of processing, be able to edit a document which looks roughly the same.
The software would use WhatTheFont (or something similar) to recognize the fonts used, and OCR and other software to handle the font size, color, line-spacing, and of course the text content itself. In the case of the example image, there would be three separate "textboxes" produced, each starting at the upper left corner of the text, and extending as far to the bottom right as it could before running into another text box. So the user would then see something like this:
(The rectangles are just used to show the boundaries of each textbox.)
From here, the user would be able to edit the text in each of these boxes to create a new document.
Of course there are tons of obvious uses for such an application, especially on a mobile phone with a built in camera.
So my questions are the following:
- I doubt the answer is yes, but does anything do this already?
- If I'm going to try to build this, what should I write it in? Can I use Python?
- What would be the best OCR libraries to start with?
- Is there a service other than WhatTheFont for font recognition that has better API support?
- Anybody want to help me build it? :)
etc. etc.
Update: One thing I wanted to mention (but forgot) is I would also like the background to be preserved. In other words, if the example above had an image behind the text, I'd like the document to use that image with text removed. I know this complicates things a lot because that would require some image editing techniques too (something akin to Photoshop CS5' "content-aware fill"). But if we can solve diminished reality on iPhones, I think we can figure this out!

These were unbeleivable! They were so easy to make and really good. I made them in mini muffin pans for little tarts and had twice as much filling as I needed, though. They were so good I decided to add them to my menu for my sons grad open house. Thanks so much.
Perfection! Crispy coconut crusts with smooth chocolate centers! These are quite low carb as well. I made into 12 crusts and the amount of filling was right on, up to the rim. Once I had baked the crusts, they were browning at the edges, but still slightly soggy at the bottoms. So I inverted and put them back in oven, upside down, for a bit, before cooling and filling them.
These were great and pretty simple to make. I made them for an evening get together and people loved them. The coconut shells could be used for lots of other things too. Thanks!

Arsene Wenger has named his 18-man squad fro the third round of the Capital One cup against Coventry City tonight. The main surprise, for me, is that Laurent Koscielny is not included. The French international central defender has been unable to get his place back to due to the excellent form of Per Mertesacker. He played against Manchester City, but only because captain Vermaelen was ill.

Fighting on the Home Front: The Legacy of Women in World War One (Hardback)Kate Adie
Hardback Published: 26/09/2013
- Not available
Check availability At your local shop
In 1914 the world changed forever. When World War One broke out and a generation of men went off to fight, bestselling author Kate Adie shows how women emerged from the shadows of their domestic lives. Now a visible force in public life, they began to take up essential roles - from transport to policing, munitions to sport, entertainment, even politics. They had finally become citizens, a recognised part of the war machine, acquiring their own rights and often an independent income. Former BBC Chief News Correspondent Kate Adie charts the seismic move towards equal rights with men that began a century ago and through unique first-hand research shows just how momentous the achievements of those pioneering women were. This is history at its best - a vivid, compelling account of the women who helped win the war as well as a revealing assessment of their legacy for women's lives today.

- Casey Dreier, Director of Space Policy, The Planetary Society
- Mat Kaplan, Planetary Radio Host and Producer
- Jason Callahan, Space Policy Advisor, The Planetary Society
In the premiere of this new monthly series we briefly examine the latest move by the House of Representatives in the game of NASA's budget and then discuss what Lockheed Martin's new "Mars Base Camp" proposal takes from The Society's Humans Orbiting Mars workshop. Our featured discussion takes a deep dive into the story of President Obama's impact on human spaceflight--how NASA ended up with a mixed program of commercial systems and big government programs.
