Is there anything I can do to relieve the swelling of my face until I can go to the dentist? Also, what is the best over the counter pain relief for an abscess?
No, unfortunately there are no good over-the-counter medicines for tooth abscesses. You need to see your dentist ASAP. Be sure your temperature does not go above 100 degrees and that you don't start vomiting.

Dan Boeckner, Subtle, Wolf Parade - Track review: Subtle featuring Dan Boeckner "Middleclass Haunt" | Chamillionaire, Three 6 Mafia Three 6 Mafia get real, real busy |
I love Richman's show, but I haven't seen him recently. Is he still doing the same stuff (sparse stage, resting his guitar on a pillow to dance for a bit, et cetera)?
I saw him open for A John Waters Christmas last month, and he's great. Just him and his "drummer" (who doesn't drum much), and he did little cheesy dance moves, though there was no pillow. Never saw him in years past, but I imagine his show hasn't changed much.

Why are Jules, Laurie and neighbor Tom huddled under a tree at night, dressed in black? You'll see when "Cougar Town" (finally) premieres on Valentine's Day.
We can tell you that they're on a secret mission, sparked by Grayson (Josh Hopkins) calling Jules (Courteney Cox) "predictable." We can also tell you there's toilet paper involved, and that Tom (Bob Clendenin) is more a part of the cul-de-sac crew in the show's third season — although he's not really a full-fledged member of the group yet. Laurie (Busy Philipps), of course, is up for anything.
We can't really tell you, however, why Grayson is dressed as a police officer in this photo, since we don't want to spoil things.
And we mentioned there's a lot of toilet paper, right?
The Season 3 premiere also checks in on Travis (Dan Byrd), who's back at college and sharing a house with a bunch of guys, including Sig (Shawn Parikh). He's enjoying the setup — until Bobby (Brian Van Holt) cons him into looking after Dog Travis.
"Cougar Town" returns to ABC at 8:30 p.m. ET Tuesday, Feb. 14.

Company builds oil industry experience through partnership
Business for Patti Engineering has increased due to strength of engineering team, its partnership with AWC, and new oil drilling technology projects.
Patti Engineering, Inc. announced continued growth in their relationship with AWC, an automation supplier and distributor of Siemens automation products. AWC and Patti Engineering teamed up to work with global oil well equipment manufacturers; supporting the design and implementation of complex automated drilling technology projects.
Patti Engineering's experience with automation in new oil drilling technology has allowed them to assist with developing innovative auto drilling technology. At the recommendation of AWC, Patti Engineering was hired to implement Siemens hardware into a drilling solutions provider's theoretical design that had previously failed using other technology. Patti Engineering was able to develop a concept program based on the company's criteria, simulated the new PLC program extensively at the test facility and achieved favorable results in only two months.
Horizontal/directional drilling and hydraulic fracturing, or "fracking," are the technologies that both make shale drilling possible and controversial. With the tremendous growth in directional drilling due to the developments in fracking; control of the drilling process to maximize safety and efficiency is even more important. Automatic drillers are a large contributor in helping rig crews better control the directional drilling process.

Regular Expressions
The Digital Mars regular expression engine is common to both the C++ Library RegExp and the D Library RegExp. Regular expressions are patterns specified by the following sequences:
c | matches literal character c. |
. | matches any character. |
* | matches previous character/subexpression 0 or more times. |
+ | matches previous character/subexpression 1 or more times. |
? | matches previous character/subexpression 0 or 1 times. |
^ | matches beginning of line. |
$ | matches end of line |
{n} | matches previous character/subexpression n times. |
{n,} | matches previous character/subexpression n or more times. |
{n,m} | matches previous character/subexpression n to m times. |
[class] | match character in character class. |
[^class] | match character not in character class. |
A|B | matches regular expression A or regular expression B. |
(exp) | matches regular subexpression exp. |
Escape sequences:
\nnn | starts out a 1, 2 or 3 digit octal sequence, where n is an octal digit. If nnn is larger than 0377, then the 3rd digit is not part of the sequence and is not consumed. For maximal portability to other regular expression engines, use exactly 3 digits. |
\xXX | starts out a 1 or 2 digit hex sequence. X is a hex character. If the first character after the \x is not a hex character, the value of the sequence is 'x' and the XX is not consumed. For maximal portability to other regular expression engines, use exactly 2 digits. |
\uUUUU | is a unicode sequence. There are exactly 4 hex characters after the \u, if any are not, then the value of the sequence is 'u', and the UUUU is not consumed. |
\b | matches a backspace character (in character classes only). |
\b | matches a word boundary (when not in character classes). |
\B | matches when not on a word boundary (when not in character classes). |
\cC | matches the control character corresponding to the letter C. |
\d | matches a 0..9 digit. |
\D | matches any character but a 0..9 digit. |
\f | matches a formfeed character. |
\n | matches a linefeed character. |
\r | matches a carriage return character. |
\s | matches whitespace, one of \f, \n, \r, \t or \v. |
\S | matches any character but those recognized by \s. |
\t | matches a tab character. |
\v | matches a vertical tab character. |
\w | matches a word character. |
\W | matches any character that is not a word. |
\\ | matches the \ character. |
\char | matches char literally if char is not one of the above. |
attributes[] contains zero or more of the following:
g | global match - used to pick off a sequence of matches rather than starting over each time from the beginning of the input string. |
i | case insensitive |
m | multiline |

Music Producers Worthy of Serious Study
By AMIR SAID (SA'ID) |
Soul music historians can say what they will about the Motown Sound. Many argue that it is the most recognizable sound ever recorded by any single record label. That's cool. But the "Philly Sound," the sound relentlessly ushered forward by the famed production duo, Kenneth Gamble & Leon Huff, is, in my opinion, the meanest, most soulfully consistent sound ever recorded. Pure inner city soul music that just cooked! Their sound was one of the most disciplined, gimmick-free, distinctive sounds that I've ever heard.
In 1971, Gamble & Huff started Philadelphia International Records. Throughout the balance of the 1970s, the pair worked jointly on songwriting and production for many of the biggest soul recording artists of the era. In their prime, you could stick any artist with Gamble & Huff, and it was a guarantee that that artist would improve 100% fold! When they produced for an artist, they didn't just rent out their sound, like many of today's prominent hip hop/rap production teams. On the contrary, Gamble & Huff lent their sound to an artist, and asked that artist to simply enhance it.
The team put together by Gamble & Huff also included arrangers Thom Bell (who grew up with Gamble in the same neighborhood) and Bobby Martin. And like Motown's Funk Brothers, Philadelphia International Records' house band, MFSB, (a rough-city group made up of Philly veteran studio session and road players), kept Gamble & Huff's signature sound steady and ready with smooth time, velvet harmonies, and pulsating rhythm.
Whether it was love slow jams, disco, or raw soul, the duo injected their sound, which was an infusion of different eras of soul music (notably doo woop and 60s R&B). Gamble & Huff were also champions of humanitarianism. Much of their songwriting contained unflinching social commentary. In fact, Gamble once stated: "We wanted to take social themes and translate them to commercial recordings."

In the following essay, Meyer examines the events that lead to the protagonist's identity formation in "The Man Who Lived Underground." The story's lesson, Meyer indicates, is that self-realization occurs only upon "acceptance of one's responsibility in an absurd world"
In Richard Wright's short story "The Man Who Lived Underground" the hero's quest for identity involves his struggle for meaning in an absurd world which, although covered with pretensions of order and meaning, is more fundamentally marked by chaos, disorder, and blind materialism. The hero achieves his identity, however, only when his experiences underground convince him both that It is futile to expect to find meaning in an irrational world and that he must accept social responsibility despite the absurdity of human existence. Fred Daniels finds his identity when he realizes that all men are guilty because they possess an inherently evil nature and when he accepts...

The Regnum Christi Movement offers its members some guidelines of a gospel-based spirituality as an ideal of Christian life. The spiritual path that Regnum Christi members walk mainly consists in knowing, loving, imitating, and proclaiming Christ. This is the path and these are the goals. Below, we offer some resources that can help nurture the spiritual life of Movement members and of any Christian.
Daily Prayer 2012-11-12 Listen to podcast version here.
Father Edward Hopkins, LCListen to podcast version here.
Luke 17:1-6
Jesus said to his disciples, "Things that cause sin will inevitably occur, but woe to the person through whom they occur. It would be better for him if a millstone were put around his neck and he be thrown into the sea than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin. Be on your guard! If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. And if he wrongs you seven times in one day and returns to you seven times saying, ´I am sorry,´ you should forgive him." And the apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith." The Lord replied, "If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you would say to (this) mulberry tree, ´Be uprooted and planted in the sea,´ and it would obey you.
Introductory Prayer: I believe in you, Lord Jesus, as the only one who can fill my heart. I believe in the power of faith to change my life and the lives of others. I trust that you will grant me the light and strength to cast out sin from my life. I come to you in prayer so that I can love you even more with a firm but serene opposition to sin.
Petition: Lord, may I desire "death before committing one sin."
1. Causing Others to Sin: The negative effects of sin are many: offending God, damaging my conscience and soul, hardening my heart, forming bad habits, losing grace and will power, creating distance and difficulty in prayer, etc. But no result of sin is more damaging than that of scandal, where my sin leads others to sin. Why is this so serious? As a Christian I am called to live and teach Christ's life to others. Scandal falsifies and contradicts my vocation and mission in life. We all have "little ones" entrusted to us: children, family members, those new to the faith, those searching, those who are especially weak…. If I am truly dedicated to lead them to Christ, then sin and scandal will have little room. How real and determined is my dedication?
2. Rebuke and Forgive: We must fight sin wherever we find it. How much more difficult does this become in a world where tolerance is ranked above virtue! Even in family life we are tempted to let things go and not create friction and uneasiness. But if sin is our greatest enemy, then we must always cast it out. The key is to do everything with the heart of Christ, a heart of love: ready to forgive the sinner, never judging their heart, but never minimizing an evil action. How well do I teach moral truth? Do I distinguish the sin from the sinner? Is Christ's love always my motivation and dominant message?
3. Faith Uproots Sin: All of this -- fighting personal sin and helping others conquer it -- seemed a bit much for the apostles. They begged for an increase of faith. Faith of any size embraces God's understanding of the evil of sin and seeks to live accordingly. Yet sin is not overcome easily, and mere understanding is not enough. We must uproot sin from our lives and reject it constantly in the lives of others. Only Christ's love provides the strength we need, and often the perseverance in battling the same sins over time only comes through the strength that comes from Christ's love. Only through Christ can our hearts be filled and not return to old habits of sin.
Conversation with Christ: Give me, Lord, the courage to fight sin in my life. Grant me your heart, Lord, so I can fight and suffer without cowardice, without taking time out and without discouragement, even if others do not understand or thank me. Help me to uproot sin from my life and put you first.
Resolution: I will fight to eradicate sins against charity in my family or work life. I will avoid it and call others to do so too in a gentle but firm manner.

John Doe has experienced a few scary things in his day. The former singer for seminal L.A. punk band X was once run off the road and went off a small cliff in Maui while in a rental van with his wife and kids. He also encounters a few rattlesnakes every year near his home in the mountains of California. "I think car wrecks and rattlesnakes are the scariest things I've encountered," he says. Making his latest album, A Year in the Wilderness, was also pretty fucking scary. Most of the musicians and producer Dave Way were scheduled and a recording date was set, but Doe was two songs short, and three drummers bailed at the last minute. Fortunately, former X bandmate Exene Cervenka came to the rescue by sending him some lyrics. Doe used them on the ballad "Darling Underdog."
"I gotta say, it was a real warm and familiar feeling to use a lot of Exene's lyrics on 'Darling Underdog,'" he says. "We've been trying to work on some X material; she sends me some lyrics and things, and when I'm looking at her words, I'm always thinking, X song, fast song. But looking at this one set of words she sent me, it seemed like they were much better as a slow song. She has such a knack for turning a phrase. As long as you can find the natural rhythm within the words, you've pretty much got it all."
Doe, who's also a poet and the poetry editor for the arts and music Web site www.bluerailroad.com, knows how to turn a phrase himself. He says about a third or a quarter of his poetry will eventually become lyrics. On Wilderness, Doe spreads his words over an equal number of ballads and rockers that remind him of the Stones or the Replacements, tracks such as "Lean Out Yr Window" and "Golden State," which feature vocals by Kathleen Edwards.
John Doe
John Doe performs Thursday, July 12, at the Granada Theater.
"The weirdest thing is that we just worked together for those three songs," Doe says of Edwards. "Maybe seven or eight hours. But the effect of it is forever. And it has a lot more impact personally—and to the rest of the world and things like that—than the actual time you spent. I guess that happens with important moments in your life, where the time spent is short, but the impression is really lasting."

Guitarist Dave Alvin, who also plays with Doe and Cervenka in the Knitters, sits in on just a few cuts on Wilderness, but he makes his presence felt on the record.
"Once you work with someone for long enough, you know what to expect, but it's not like you know exactly what's going to happen," Doe points out. "With Dave, I know that he's going to deliver on a real gut level, but it's not going to be just that. It's gonna be gut level with this artistry talent. Obviously, the lead he played on 'Hotel Ghost' is great. But the stuff he did on 'A Little More Time' really put it into a '60s-'70s big-production folk song. Something that Glen Campbell or Gordon Lightfoot might do."

Our classroom is an evolving play space changing to fit our learning needs of the month, week and day! It is a wonderful blend of a homey room with all the benefits of a classroom. Each wall is covered with imaginative murals depicting jungle plants and animals. We thank local artist, Tina Dunn, for giving us her interpretation of The Great Kapok Tree. Enjoy your Mommy Nature's Preschool Centers Photo Tour. Click on the photos for a larger view of each center. Art Gallery - Different from the bulletin board where we display theme-related art and work projects, the art gallery hangs above our futon and displays creative expression projects the children have created on their own. They have free range to explore many available art mediums (see picture at right) located beside the table during free play. Book Nook - This began with a fluffy over-sized pillow next to the futon with books flanking both sides. That was, of course, until the resident class pet, the dog, decided it was too comfortable to go to the kids! Now the children enjoy pillows on the futon while I change out the books in the side as our needs change, with the seasons, new themes or new interests. Check-in Corner
- Just inside the front door of the classroom, the children can hang
their bags, coats, etc. on a labeled hook. Above, they can
clip special pictures or I may clip notes to send home. Daily Attendance - On the entry door lives our ladybug, Spot, who announces each child's attendance. When they arrive, or during Morning Meeting, if they forget, each child moves his/her "spot" from the outer area onto the ladybug to show they are here.
Supply Buckets - Above the futon (as well as above the Morning Meeting area - not pictured), I have sturdy shelves holding a myriad of supplies and games that we rotate through our centers. Science Center - A constantly updated center that sees a variety of mediums and experiments visit for various times. The guinea pig is the only constant in this center, while other items are changed out due to interest. We've enjoyed things such as an explorer's kit, seed starters, toy animal sorting/patterning basket, rice or bean buckets, and a measuring bucket.

Kimi Räikkönen
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
"*Unintelligible mumbling* vodka *more unintelligible mumbling* tires *even more mumbling* ice cream *yet more mumbling* gorilla suit *more unintelligible mumbling*I RAPED MY CAR *mumbling that's unrealistically unintelligible*"
"I was the one in the gorilla suit."
"An "Iceman" wears a gorilla suit to drive a snowmobile. What irony."
"He talks English just like Finnish. All mumbling."
Kimi Räikkönen (born Räikki Kimönen on 17 October 1979 in Ass-poo, Finland) is a Finnish tax refugee and a Formula One pilot. Kimi competes in Formula One's Top Alcohol(ic) class. Kimi (formerly Kimberly) was also known as the second female F1 driver after Sano Troolee, but after Kimi's operation Heidi took that status. Kimi is perhaps not the fastest nor the smartest F1 driver, but when it comes to emptying a 12-pack of beer, he is definitely in the all-time top ten. His main threat was probably Juan Pablo Montoya, who like Kimi, also boasts a massive beergut. Kimi's karaoke skills and drinking prowess have gained him much respect in his home country Monaco. In seasons 2004-2006 Kimi drove in Team MäcLärvit. For season 2007 Kimi got a brand new Ferrari from his boyfriend Micky Shoemaker. Kimi is also famous for his manly, low hormone-induced voice and vacant stare during the press conferences.
edit Start of Career
Kimi was very fast already as a teenager. At Imola he emptyed a sixpack of beer in less than 1:20, beating Mika Häkkinen's old record. Kimi's father won a go-kart from Finland's annual tractor pulling championships and that is when Kimi became interested in racing. Kimi broke his go-kart's gearbox soon, but luckily it was repairable. Soon Kimi learned that it was a good thing to go-kart when totally shitfaced. Kimi had to make a tough choice between Silverstone's annual go-karting race and the Lemaze 24h beer drinking contest. Kimi's mother told Kimi not to go to Lemaze, so Kimi was forced to leave a very promising career as a 24h Lemazer. At the age of eleven, Kimi made his breakthrough by winning the Silverstone go-kart race and was recruited to Team MäcLärvit by moneyman Ron Dennis.
edit Team MäcLärvit Years
Kimi's time in Team MäcLärvit was fruitful, yet he didn't win the championship. Kimi's old habits soon surfaced under pressure and he started breaking the gearbox again. Kimi could probably have won the entire thing, but his MäcLärvit F1 car started suffering from spontaneous combustion problems. Furthermore, there were some faster drivers on the track. When Kimi's cockpit hangover remedy stash caught fire and exploded, sending Kimi to the tirewall, he decided that it was time to give up the dirty habbit, and went back to good old fashioned masturbation. The unreliability of the MäcLärvit made it merely unable to produce results, partially due to the fact that the car was mainly made of cardboard and styrofoam, which consequently made it unable to drive more than 15 laps.
edit Team Ferrero Rocher Era
Bad luck has continued to haunt Kimi in Team Ferrero Rocher. After making a record of 5.6 per mill and crashing with Polish F1 pilot Kupitsa in Shackenheim GP Sir Bernie demanded that Kimi must cut back on the alcohol. Kimi had no choice but to obey. This immediately affected Kimi's speed and smell as this time he was almost completely sober during the races. Furthermore, once Kimi left, MäcLärvit seemed to have found a cure to the spontaneus combustion problems through industrial espionage. Some F1 journalists have also speculated that this was due to the lighter alcohol load in the engine compartment. Kimi's speed has steadily improved this season as Ferrero's engineers have found new ways to hide Koskenkorva inside Kimi's helmet. His deterioration in form in 2008 and 2009 co-incided with his appearance at his local alcoholics annoymous and the breakdown in his affair with Luca di Montezemelo
edit GPS Voice Set
Kimi's downloadable GPS navigation voice set has become extremely popular. In addition to being able to enjoy Kimi's beautiful voice, the GPS voice set contains some bonus features:
- At every turn there is a 10% chance that Kimi will utter his famous catchphrase "emmätiiä" (I dunno). This will, however, never happen if you select the nearest bar as your navigation point.
- Upon arrival at the bar, Kimi will congratulate you by saying his other catchphrase "Jees tö reis vos veri good änd... jees."
- If you're a hardcore Tifoso you also have the option to listen to Kimi perform the karaoke song "Genghis Khan".

Old Kimberley's 2008 F1 season did not get off to a great start last weekend in melbourne, Australia. On the thursday rumours began to circulate about an affair between Kimberley and Michael Schumacher over the winter testing season. When pressed on the subject Kimberley uttered an unintelligible monosyllabic grunt and went off in a huff. Michael Schumacher commented: "Now you've gone and done it. She's on her period, don't you know."
In the saturday qualifying session Kimberley demonstrated the hallmark of all women drivers: the inability to park. She stopped her car 100m short of the pit lane in a frankly dangerous position, got out, and wandered back to her motorhome to re-do her makeup. The race on Sunday also proved no better. Kimberley made at least 187 separate mistakes and did not finish.
Malaysiahttp://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page 2008. Unfortunately he won. Everyone knows he cheated, but we just can't prove it. Yet. He did get a lot of assistance from the Ferrari International Assistance, who gave the two McLaren drivers a grid penalty for being much faster than Raikkonen.
Bahrain 2008. Dyke-onnen, as he is now known, messed up the start. He then proceeded to drive into the back of a filthy spanish driver, known as Alfonso. Dyke-onnen reported after the race that he had been distracted by Alfonso offensive stench, and had been trying desperately to hold his nose, but first had to takes his hands off the wheel, undo his helmet straps, take off the helmet, find the clothes peg strapped to the back of his seat, attach the clothes peg to his nose, put his helmet back on, then re-do the straps, and finally regain control of the car. He was able to do the in 0.18 of a second. Unfortunately 0.17 seconds into the maneuver he crashed into Alfonso, taking them both out of the race.
It the next three races it became frighteningly obvious that Kimi is a giant homosexual.
edit Kimi's 2009 Season
2009 started badly for Kimi, as he crashed his Fiat on the way to testing in Bahrain. He suffered severe injuries and had to have both arms amputated. Being unable to drive with no arms, Ferrari modified his car to operate on his menstrual blood flow. This is likely to be a severe handicap for Kimberley this season as he is only known to have a period every other month. With his Ferrero Rocher converted into a sack of bricks, Raikkonen stole the win from Giancarlo Fizzy Keller after disabling teammate Flippo Massa. Raikkonen stole all of USF1's money and ran off in his gorilla suit back to Finland.
edit Return of the Mumbling Finn
In 2012 Kimi returned to Formula One to driver for Lotus. Any illusion that he had acquired a personality whilst away was quickly spoilt by his first press conference. It had to be run with English subtitles, even though Kimi was allegedly speaking in that language. 'Kharasmatic Kimi' drove for the rest of the season, bringing his car in first for one race when Lewis Hamilton's car broke down at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and had to wait six hours for a mechanic to fix it. Kimi responded to his victory by saying he was 'in the shit for not smiling enough'. Ahh...you little charmer Kimi!
edit Return to Ferrari 2014
Ferrari agreed to sign Kimi for 2 years. Ferrari head Dooomkelly was happy to sign kimi once again giving them a chance and fuck his F1 carrier

edit World Rally Crash
Kimberley decided he would compete in rallying, and was an instant success, by rolling down a hill at 746mph. With people tipping him for a move to the British trashing cars crashing championship. Kimberley had her month-off her period, and subsequently started staying on the track, and not exceeding the almost stationary speed of 291mph.

13 Must See Stargazing Events for 2013
— Listed In Chronological Order
1) January 21 — Very Close Moon/Jupiter Conjunction
A waxing gibbous moon (78% illuminated) will pass within less than a degree to the south of Jupiter high in the evening sky. Your closed fist held out at arms length covers 10 degrees. These two won't get that close again until 2026.
2) February 2-23 — Best Evening View of Mercury
The planet Mercury will be far enough away from the glare of the Sun to be visible in the Western sky after sunset. It will be at its brightest on the 16th and dim quickly afterwards. On the 8th it will skim by the much dimmer planet Mars by about 0.4 degrees.
3) March 10-24 — Comet PANSTARRS at its best
First discovered in 2011, this comet should be coming back around for about 2 weeks. It will be visible low in the northwest sky after sunset. Here are some sources predicting what the comets may look like in the sky; 1, 2
4) April 25 — Partial Lunar Eclipse
A very minor, partial lunar eclipse (not visible in North America) where only about 2 percent of the moon's diameter will be inside the dark shadow of the Earth.
5) May 9 — Annular Eclipse of the Sun ("Ring of Fire" Eclipse)
It will be visible in Northern Australia and parts of Papua New Guinea but mostly within the Pacific Ocean. See all the solar eclipse paths for 2001-2020 here.
6) May 24-30 — Dance of the Planets
Mercury, Venus and Jupiter will seemingly dance between each other in the twilight sky just after sunset as they will change their positions from one evening to the next. Venus will be the brightest of all, six times brighter than Jupiter.
7) June 23 — Biggest Full Moon of 2013
It will be the biggest full moon because the moon will be the closest to the Earth at this time making it a 'supermoon' and the tides will be affected as well creating exceptionally high and low tides for the next few days.
8) August 12 — Perseid Meteor Shower
One of the best and most reliable meteor showers of the year producing upwards of 90 meteors per hour provided the sky is dark. This year the moon won't be in the way as much as it will set during the evening leaving the rest of the night dark. Here is a useful dark-sky finder tool.
9) October 18 — Penumbral Eclipse of the Moon
Visible mostly in Asia, Europe and Africa, at this time the 76% of the moon will be covered by the penumbral shadow of the Earth.
10) November 3 — Hybrid Eclipse of the Sun
A Hybrid Eclipse meaning, along its path, the eclipse will turn from Annular to Total and in this case most of the path will appear to be Total as there will be a slight ring of sunlight visible near the beginning of the track. This one will begin in the Atlantic (near the East Coast of the U.S.) and travel through Africa. See the path here. The greatest eclipse (with 100 seconds of totality) will appear in Liberia, near the West Coast of Africa.
11) Mid-November through December — Comet ISON
The second comet this year, ISON, could potentially be visible in broad daylight as it reaches its closest point to the Sun. It will reach that point on November 28 and it is close enough to the Sun to be categorized as a 'Sungrazer'. Afterwards it will travel towards Earth (passing by within 40 million miles) a month later.
12) All of December — Dazzling Venus
The brightest planet of them all will shine a few hours after sundown in the Southwestern sky and for about 1.5 hours approaching New Years Eve. Around December 5th, a crescent moon will pass above the planet and the next night Venus will be at its brightest and wont be again until 2021.
13) December 13-14 — Geminid Meteor Shower
This is another great (if not the best) annual meteor shower. This year put on a show at about 120 meteors per hour and in 2013 it won't be much different so expect another fantastic show. However, the moon - as it is a few days before full phase - will be in the way for most of the night obscuring some of the fainter meteors. You might have to stay up in the early morning hours (4am) to catch the all the meteors it has to offer. If you missed 2012's Geminid Meteor Shower, here are some great photo-sets; 1, 2, 3

Inertial recoil reducers...
Do they work? Anyone have any experience with these? Some use spring pistons & others are filled with mercury.
TIA... ..bug |

They work, somewhat, if they are installed correctly. They work with inertia, either mercury, a weight with springs, or lead shot. As the gun recoils, the weight from the three items mentioned above, want to move forward in the opposing direction (actually they sit still as the recoil happens), and counter the recoil.
They may not be good to mount in an inertia locked shotgun, similar to Benelli, and others. The reason why, is these types of actions depend on the recoil to lock the bolt. If the recoil is reduced, there could be a possibility of the bolt unlocking prematurely. Also, never shoot one from a shooting vise that won't allow recoil. |

Although muzzle brakes are popular & they work, they do have their drawbacks; mainly noise back at the shooter.
Since they work, I was wondering why these inertia devices aren't more popular. I've never experienced a rifle with one. Seem like they could be used in conjunction with a good recoil pad without any disadvantages except a few ounces of weight. I put a good recoil pad on just about every CF rifle I own. This includes .22-250 & .250 savage. Even on light kicking guns, less recoil is better in my mind. Thanks for the response. ...bug |

Some were made, that could fit in the bolt hole of the stock, but the problem is, that the mercury and lead shot ones have to be mounted uphill, with the nose up toward the frame. The weight, with two opposing springs, was supposed to counter this, and allow for easier installation. The other two required a new bored hole in the stock, at the correct angle, unless the bolt hole ran uphill while the gun was held. Plus, if you shot vertically, they didn't work hardly at all, so some bird shots are out.
Winchester came up with the sliding stock, that used a shock absorber setup, and I think you can get a stock mechanism similar to it now. According to what gun you want to install it on, they make one that will replace the magazine tube cap, for some auto and pump guns. You might try one of these, to see how you like it, before boring a stock to install one. |

With all its glorious neorealism, crude imagery, provocative documentaries and some screwball comedy thrown in the mix, Mexican Cinema arrives in town this weekend.
In its ninth year, Tucson Cine México brings for its 2014 edition seven films that showcase the quality and diversity of filmmaking south of the border.
Recent history says Mexico's filmmakers are on a roll: Alfonso Cuarón won this year's Oscar for best director for "Gravity," and two Mexican filmmakers have won this and last year's prize for best director at Cannes, said Carlos A. Gutiérrez, president of Cinema Tropical, which distributes Latin American films in the United States.
"I would say Mexico is one of the countries with the most interesting cinemas in the world right now," said Gutiérrez, who curates the films for Cine México.
Six of the seven coming to the festival will be screened for the first time in Arizona and "Los Insólitos Peces Gato" ("The Amazing Catfish") will have its U.S. premiere.
The most acclaimed film in the festival is "Heli." Gutiérrez said it has been hailed as a visionary work of art, a New Wave film about the effects of the drug trade, with gruesome scenes. Director Amat Escalante earned the best-director award at last year's Cannes International Film Festival.
"I think its important to mention that it's the second time in a row that a Mexican filmmaker wins that prize," Gutiérrez said.
Another filmmaker worth following, said Gutiérrez, is Gary Alazraki, the man behind "We Are the Nobles." A runaway hit in Mexico last year, the romp pokes fun at Mexico's young, frivolous and unapologetic elites who have a taste for top brand clothes, premium cars and speak a quasi preppie far removed from street Mexican Spanish.
The film tells the story of Germán Noble, played by veteran movie star Gonzalo Vega, a millionaire who realizes his three kids are spoiled brats whose only quest in life is to overindulge. Noble's solution is to pretend that he is bankrupt. He takes his kids to a dilapidated shack and tells them they must do the unthinkable: Work.
For Vega, 66, who had been unable to act for three years due to an illness, the film was not only a comeback movie, but also a second chance at an active life. He credits the film's lighthearted comedy elements and challenge for lifting his spirits and getting him back on the acting track.
Vega and Alazraki will be in person at the screening Saturday at 7:30 p.m. at the Fox Theatre Downtown.
For Alazraki, 35, "We the Nobles" was his satirical way of portraying some of the snobs he grew up with, inspired by a few of his close relatives and friends, he said. He hopes his film's box-office success inspires other Mexican filmmakers to move on from what he describes as personal, condescending films that for decades have been geared toward elites at the expense of the masses.
"I think that this success will make many new filmmakers take on more seriously the idea of making a cleaner cinema, where there is no nudity, no bullets, no kidnappings, no drug dealers, no cuss words," he said.
The Tucson series kicks off with "Quebranto," ("Disrupted"), by Roberto Fiesco, a documentary about "Fernando," a former boy actor in Mexico who transforms into a woman. "La Jaula de Oro"("The Golden Dream") is Diego Quemada-Diez's "immigrant thriller" about four boys who perilously head north atop the "beast," the infamous cargo train.
Two films by first-time filmmakers will be shown. Claudia St. Luce's comedy about friendship in "The Amazing Catfish" and Samuel Kishi's "We are Mari Pepa", about a failed teen rock band from Guadalajara. An overly possessive mother faces a teenage girl over her adolescent son's attention span in Fernando Eimbcke's comedy "Club Sandwich."
The festival is also presented by the University of Arizona's Hanson Film Institute and the Consulate of Mexico in Tucson.

The Speaker, Pandikar Amin Mulia, stated that the MPs, not the Speaker, made the decision to suspend Getang Patah MP Lim Kit Siang from the Dewan Rakyat. His claim is not entirely true.
Kenyataan Tuan Yang di-Pertua Dewan Rakyat Pandikar Amin Mulia seperti dilaporkan Astro Awani, "Tiada peruntukan usul tidak percaya, kata Pandikar" amat meresahkan Gabungan Pilihanraya Bersih dan Adil (Bersih 2.0).
Martin Jalleh wonders aloud if the Speaker's decision is based on parliamentary maturity or political expediency.
Malaysians today witnessed another sordid attempt to make a mockery of the parliamentary system as four opposition MPs were suspended in highly undemocratic circumstances, writes P Ramakrishnan.
Anil Netto looks at something that has not been discussed much: the mainstream media's role in legitimising the Perak power grab in the state executive as well as the legislature.
Congratulations are due to the High Court and Chief Minister Nizar (and not to mention Speaker Sivakumar, whose coolness under pressure will earn him a cameo appearance in the nation's history books for sure), but let us return to the original demand that was articulated three months ago: Let the People of Perak decide once and for all, decisively – for it is they and only they who can resolve this crisis with any popular legitimacy, says Farish Noor. Let the people of Perak decide, call for state elections now!
Chaos has descended upon Ipoh and the rule of law has been savaged by the brutish behaviour of Perak Umno State Assembly members. What we have witnessed today will condemn us for ever for reducing a much respected institution into the law of the jungle. Decorum was not observed and the rule of law was totally discarded.
Judicial Commissioner Ridwan Ibrahim did the right thing in withdrawing himself from hearing the two cases against Perak Speaker V Sivakumar. It is the only decent thing to do after the ridiculous decisions he had made in these cases which denied the Speaker the choice of lawyers and his own right to defend himself. His position has become untenable.
It was another day of absurdity in the annals of the judiciary when Judicial Commissioner Ridwan Ibrahim incomprehensibly ruled on 11 March 2009 to deny the Speaker of the Perak State Assembly his right of defence. His ridiculous decision has given the judiciary a bad name tarnishing its reputation and ruining its image.
Minister in the PM's Department Nazri Abd Aziz has labelled Perak State Assembly Speaker V Sivakumar a "boy speaker". He says the Speaker "does not know what he is doing. He is not fit to be given such a heavy responsibility." Alas, who has been acting like a boy? Of course, the small boy in the PM's department, writes Martin Jalleh.
Lawyer Tommy Thomas reports on what happened in the High Court judge's chambers this morning in Ipoh. He also provides an opinion on whether the Speaker could legally hold a sitting of the state assembly.
The Election Commission has no inherent powers to decide whether a vacancy has occurred in a constituency. It has no discretionary authority to override the notification of the Speaker of the Perak State Assembly declaring that the state seats of Changkat Jering and Behrang have fallen vacant following the resignations of the incumbents of these seats.

Sarcoidosis |
SPAP, Steroids and Bosentan09/23/2010 |
Hi! My father was diagnosed with Pulmonary Sarcoidosis in 1996. He took 50mg steroids for 2 months and later about 4mg of Medrol until recently when a specialist said his ACE report showed no disease activity but ECHO revealed a SPAP of 50mmHg. He was told to take Bozetan for 2 months. But we are worried about the side effects of this drug. And after taking steroids for so long we are very wary of taking any long term drug. Help is appreciated.
Dear Sir/Madam-Insufficient information is provided for me to make a meaningful comment. Sarcoidosis is one of many causes of pulmonary hypertension. As such, other possible causes should be considered. Once the cause is established, appropriate treatments can be considered based on the results of related tests. If sarcoidosis is found to be the cause, there is reasonably good evidence in support of treatments aimed at reducing the activity of the sarcoidosis and potentially treating with a drug, such as Bosentan, that reduces pulmonary hypertension.

DMT or Dimethyltryptamine is a naturally occurring psychedelic compound of the tryptamine family.DMT is found not only in several plants, but also in trace amounts in humans and other mammals, where it is originally derived from the essential amino acid tryptophan, and ultimately produced by the enzyme INMT during normal metabolism. The natural function of its widespread presence remains undetermined. Source: Wikipedia Many believe that this molecule could hold the key to unlocking human creativity and self awareness. The documentary takes a look at the work of Dr. Rick Strassman and his research into the effects of N,N-dimethyltryptamine DMT. What he discovered was profound and could forever change our fundamental understanding of the true nature of reality, the mind, our dreams and human consciousness.You can purchase the entire documentary here Also check out the web site

Feinberg, Kenneth R., 1945-
Attorney and UMass alumnus Kenneth R. Feinberg, well known as a mediator, special master of compensation funds, and dedicated public servant, is a longtime devotee of opera and classical music. Since his days as a law student in New York in the late 1960s, continuing through his career practicing law in Washington, D.C., Feinberg has regularly attended operas, concerts, musical theater, and other musical performances. He has also served as president of the Washington National Opera and led a private opera appreciation group.
This extensive collection of more than 1,000 items encompasses a wide range of composers, productions, concerts, companies, and venues, mainly in the United States, with some European performances represented. Documenting more than four decades of concert- and opera-going, and arranged in rough chronological order according to Feinberg's numbering system, the programs are searchable by composer in an accompanying card index. There is also a small amount of related ephemera, including some vintage programs. Additions to the collection are expected.

Kindle 2 Drops To $299, Competition Looming
If you'll recall, Amazon had no problem selling through stock of its original Kindle, but really, it was a first of its kind. Now, the e-reader is somewhat more commonplace, and the economy definitely isn't conducive for sales of luxury items such as these. What's most interesting, however, is what this could signal: a spike in heated competition. We've already heard of a number of competitors gearing up to launch e-readers of their own, and we're talking about big players in the industry.
Could the $299 Kindle 2 be the first major drop in an impending e-reader price war? As consumers, we'd love nothing more. To us, e-readers are still grossly overpriced for most, and mass adoption won't happen until they sink below the $100 mark. We may still be a few years out from that happening, but we seem to be a lot closer today than yesterday.

There's a whiff of aged aquatic life about the fish-out-of-water tale "Wild Child," but that still won't stop Working Title's junior romantic comedy from smelling as sweet as sugar cookies to its tween target aud. Competent if mechanical helming debut by editor Nick Moore, who's cut many of the shingle's best-known hits (including "Love, Actually"), features upcoming starlet Emma Roberts ("Nancy Drew") as a Malibu brat who's shipped off to an English boarding school. "Wild Child," which bowed domestically Aug. 15, ought to claw out decent B.O. figures from young femmes who don't fancy the Olympics or another male-skewed blockbuster.
When popular high school princess Poppy (Roberts) infuriates her father (Aiden Quinn) by pulling a stunt that goes too far, he packs her off to British boarding school Abbey Mount. Run with a firm but fair hand by headmistress Mrs. Kingsley (Natasha Richardson), Poppy's new alma mater has a strict uniform code that — much to her chagrin — doesn't encompass Jimmy Choo stilettos. A rigid social hierarchy that places Americans at the bottom of the pecking order, below vermin, is enforced by stuck-up head girl Harriet (Georgia King). Eventually, Poppy learns a little humility and befriends her four dormmates, who agree to help get her expelled so she can return home to California. Cue an assortment of relatively harmless pranks, followed by dressing-up montages backed by an anodyne pop soundtrack. Love interest is provided by Mrs. Kingsley's hunky son, Freddie (Alex Pettyfer, "Stormbreaker"), who's a bit of a ringer for Prince William but with lusher locks. Script credited to Lucy Dahl (daughter of author Roald Dahl) puts more emphasis on character development and plot mechanics than the recent, slapstick-laden, girls'-school-set "St. Trinian's," and still manages to have funnier one-liners (not a hard feat). Pic's third-act endorsement of female friendship turns out to be surprisingly affecting, despite obvious sentimentality. Roberts has good chemistry with Pettyfer, and projects a fine mixture of sass, smarts and sweetness, although this may not be enough to make pic a crossover success Stateside, except as a cult ancillary item. The grown-up thesps aren't used to the best of their abilities, especially Shirley Henderson and Daisy Donovan. (Latter, a comic respected for her edgy work in Britain, was reportedly one of pic's original co-screenwriters, but isn't credited as such here.) However, casting agents should take note of some of pic's younger femmes, particularly ingenue Kimberley Nixon (who plays Poppy's new best friend, Kate) and strong-featured King. Tech credits are serviceable, although the opening sequence seems truncated, and elsewhere editing (which one would think would be helmer Moore's forte) feels choppy, suggesting last-minute excisions after preview testing.Wild Child

Many people choose to exercise with fitness machines such as treadmills, stair-climbers, stationary bicycles, and cross-country skiing machines. These all offer aerobic conditioning and may also strengthen muscles.
Fitness machines can be great for exercising when the weather is bad or days are short. You may also like the fact that these machines let you control the intensity of your activity and may give you information about your heart rate, calories burned, or miles covered. Fitness machines are safe and handy, but they can be boring. Listening to music, watching TV, or exercising with a friend may make it more fun.
Advertising for fitness products often promises large gains with little effort. This is a promise that sounds good but is rarely true. Before you buy, think about these tips:

Could you put 2.0.2 on the mod site?
Update for SMF 2.0.1 contains fix for problems with downloading attachments by FF?and this is fixed in this patch?
I would like to manually manage the update, as this is just small update when i update 2.0.1 to 2.0.2 i guess? I have planty of mods installed and many code changes so i want to be sure that everything will be okay, and i want to manually install this patch, if it's possible?
for those that want a parse of the 2.0.1 -> 2.0.2 package http://custom.simplemachines.org/upgrades/index.php?action=upgrade;file=smf_patch_2.0.2.tar.gz;smf_version=2.0.1
why it is not included in the release?
Pure guess: The bug is with Firefox, not SMF.
Strangely enough this forum appears still unpatched:SMF 2.0.1 | SMF © 2011, Simple Machines
Although I'm very disappointed that this update didn't fix the known "attachments bug" with firefox 8 - since I consider it a major bug, end-user wise.http://dev.simplemachines.org/mantis/view.php?id=4825There's already a patch for it (but weird, because there is no file named "Attachment.php" in the /Sources directory.. It should be Display.php), so why it is not included in the release?

At a press conference with Republican leaders today, House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) said that the president's failure to put forth a plan that is both balanced and begins to address our debt crisis is stalling a solution to the fiscal cliff and putting American jobs at risk.
"The president's plan to avert the fiscal cliff still does not meet the two standards that I laid out the day after the election," Boehner said. "His plan does not fulfill his promise to bring a balanced approach to solving this problem. It's mainly tax hikes, and his plan does not begin to solve our debt crisis. It actually increases spending."

We're back again this month for another dose of the four independent artists and their singles that you should be checking out! This feature is designed to unearth undiscovered gems – those plectrums that so annoyingly get lost, go astray if you will, and we seem to spend our lives searching for. Keep reading to find them!
Judith Owen 'I've Never Been To Texas'
Welsh singer-songwriter Judith Owen emigrated to America in 1993, after meeting a young guy from Texas while living as a broke musician in London. Inspired by her meeting with him and the magical, shimmering landscape he seemed to describe, she wrote 'I've Never Been To Texas', originally recorded for her debut album 'Emotions On A Postcard', released in 1996. This evocative tale of losing love was then re-recorded with her current band for her latest album 'Ebb & Flow' (and her first released in the UK), and the results are startlingly beautiful. Simply captivating, from the atmospheric production, the simplicity of the instrumentation and the tumbling, twisting, winding nature of the melody and vocal delivery, it's a shame that more people haven't listened to it.
You can check it out below, and find Judith Owen at her website and on Twitter, and buy the song on iTunes (UK only).
The Delta Bell 'Wasted'
Echoing a more soulful, old school country sound, Brighton, UK-based singer-songwriter Kate Gerrard represents a fascinating combination of musical factors. Singing in (mostly) her own British accent with hints of transatlanticism, her voice simultaneously recalls the jazzy, soulful black American singers of the 1960's as she floats along a soundscape of traditional (albeit bluesy) country, complete with wailing pedal steel and drone resonator. 'Wasted', which has been described as a "whiskey-soaked swagger" (rather accurately) is available as a limited 7" vinyl and download and is the lead single from The Delta Bell's debut album, 'Bow Out of The Fading Light'.
You can check out the video for 'Wasted' below, and find The Delta Bell at her website, on Facebook and on Twitter.
Ward Thomas 'The Good & The Right'
Ward Thomas are a further example to the world of the strength of sister duos. 19-year-old twins from Hampshire, UK, their perfect harmonies and sassy delivery make their debut single 'The Good & The Right' truly something to sit up and take notice. It serves as the lead track from the first EP 'Footnotes', recorded in Nashville (with their album featuring a guest appearance from Vince Gill) and is as inclusive of their rootsy, twangy influences as their poppier ones, producing solid, energetic, singable music that is hard to ignore. Inspired by the likes of Carrie Underwood, Johnny Cash, Dixie Chicks and Alison Krauss, Ward Thomas shirk their arguable geographical hindrance and, reminiscent of award-winning groups such as The Wreckers, are as identifiably and commercially country as any act in Nashville and beyond. 'The Good & The Right' emphasizes this; longing for a simpler time, it discusses people's relationship with technology, and makes sure to include a subtle jab at the content of radio too.
You can check out the song below, and you can buy it on iTunes.
Ted Z and The Wranglers 'Afraid of Dying'
The only non-UK band on our list this month, Ted Z and The Wranglers hail from Orange County, California, and it's their brand of grassroots, southwestern country-folk that sets them apart. 'Afraid of Dying' is a heartfelt ballad illustrated by atmospheric steel guitar, leaving echoes of freedom and calm, open space floating for its sub-3 minutes of playing time. Their pride in music comes from their focus on a wide variety of complex song topics; from cultural awareness to romanticism, politics to environmentalism, humanity and childhood, there's an introspective feel to their music, a manner in which inspires thought and reflection. Not content to remain sonically low key, however, their music also spans grittier rock 'n' roll, making them a well-rounded group of musicians and artists.
You can find Ted Z and The Wranglers on Facebook and Reverbnation, and you can watch the video for 'Afraid of Dying' below.

Naeth and Jensen Rock in Racine
Canada's Angela Naeth is on fire this season thanks to her perfect record in 70.3 racing, while Denmark's Martin Jensen claimed his first 70.3 win in Wisconsin.
by Shawn Skene
With two incredibly competitive fields lining up at today's IRONMAN 70.3 Racine, it came as no surprise that the race was decided during the run. Thanks to a spectacular course that serves as an excellent tune-up for IRONMAN Wisconsin, age groupers and pros alike enjoyed a great day of racing.
Jensen and Starykowicz class of the field in Racine
Martin Jensen (DMK) showed the way out of the waters of Lake Michigan with his 24:01 swim time. Behind the Dane was a pack of nine men including former ITU stars Denis and Ivan Vasiliev (RUS), Paul Ambrose (AUS), Andrew Starykowicz (USA), Barret Brandon (USA), Brad Kahlefeldt (AUS), Bryan Rhodes (NZL), Leon Griffin (AUS) and Tim Reed (AUS). Notably missing from the Jensen-pulled train was Tylor Butterfield (BUR), who dug himself into an early hole with a 2:25 deficit to overcome and a lot of fast athletes ahead of him.
Riding through 30-miles, Starykowicz was leading the way with Jensen just seconds back. Ambrose, Reed, Griffin, Ivan Vasiliev and Rhodes were working together trying to limit the gap to Starykowicz out front, but were all between 2:30 and three minutes behind with 26 miles of biking ahead.
Starykowicz's entered T2 with a 1:45 cushion on Jensen. Ambrose and Reed tried to bridge the gap to the leader over the last half of the ride, but found themselves getting off their bikes almost six minutes behind.
Out on the run, Jensen was within 30 seconds of Starykowicz by 3.3 miles and had taken the lead by the halfway point. In the end Jensen took the title with a 1:29 winning margin over Starykowicz's "never-say-die" effort. Ivan Vasiliev used the day's fastest run split of 1:13:31 to grab the final place on the podium.
Naeth forges to the front
Leading the women's race into T1 was first-year pro Haley Chura (USA), whose 25:40 swim was a minute faster than her closest rival, Jenna Parker (USA). The remainder of the field was over two-and-a-half minutes back including another former ITU star, Barbra Riveros (ESP), along with Tami Ritchie (USA); Ashely Clifford (USA); Mirinda Carfrae (AUS); Jackie Arendt (USA); Jullian Paterson (USA) and Cat Morrison (GBR).
Early in the bike Parker had the lead, but it was Naeth who was making the big move of the day. She quickly moved to second with some of the sport's best riders not far behind: Morrison was cycling fourth (2:01 back) with Carfrae, the 2010 IRONMAN world champion, sitting sixth (2:23 off the pace).
Coming into T2 Naeth had worked her way into the lead with a 1:23 advantage over the fleet-footed Morrison. Parker had slipped to third (-1:42), while April Gallatly (-2:28) and Carfrae (-3:29) came into transition in fourth and fifth.
Three miles into the run, Naeth's lead was down to just 30 seconds over Morrison. At the halfway point the gap was just four seconds. Naeth held on, though, and eventually pulled away from the speedy Scot to take the Ironman 70.3 Racine title in 4:15:00. That got her to the line 52-seconds ahead of Carfrae, who used the day's best run of 1:20:13 to nip Morrison for second overall. Morrison rounded out the podium, coming to the finish line 13 seconds after Carfrae.

Your argument is valid but opening with mutilate while shadow focus speced means: a free 55 energy cost attack, that can proc dispatch, a 2 weapons attack that can proc enchants, 2-3 instant CPs, instant damage.
Exactly. If you can, open with garrote, but it's not a big deal due to the presence of Shadow Focus and the removal of Overkill.

Your sub lineup seems to be using 165 energy in 2.01 seconds with no buffed energy regen. Hax?
I don't have one. As far as I've been able to ball park it *seems* like Subterfuge, starting with a Garrote-->Ambush--> SnD, is going to be the best option, due to being fully ramped up in 3 globals. But honestly the entire thing seems like it needs to be modeled in order to really know the answer. Factoring in things like the armor reduction on the first Ambush is beyond me. I guess the good news is nothing is so obviously "the right answer" that it's far and away the best option." - http://elitistjerks.com/f78/t126898-...all_specs/p32/ Lumen222
As to the assassination discussion, I'm sure it's being modeled but iirc the bonus of having the bleed up overtakes Mutilate as an opener, and gives you a bit of opening time... I'll have to go back and check (Edit: still in discussions, as to whether garrote for a quicker SnD or mut for quicker rupture models on top). For combat, it's possible* that RvS will be on top, but given that it's a free attack, I see Ambush as the more likely best opener, for free. No, it doesn't push you 1/4 closer to 10% more damage (a 2.5% increase?) but extra CPs are a premium for combat as it is, and the opening damage is much higher.
Also, why wouldn't you be able to open with garrote? If you're talking positionally, the requirement to be in the back is gone (as I was corrected in a sub thread some time back).

I see no posts about rogues at all, but on live i can see something is CLEARLY wrong?
is rogue intented to get owned by a lvl 85 when you are level 87 yourself?
I tryed backstab build with full cataclysm against a 85 lock, my crits is like 23 AT MOST, his crits is like 39 (same gear)
I've tried Assassination spec, and it is the best in my opinion. but my muti crits are no higher than 20k main and 6 offhand. my evenom is 25 +.
Blizzard, is it the idea that rogues should be nerfet to the ground, since we've been insanely OP in Cataclysm. (I know rogues were too strong in Cataclysm)
Are we going to be replaced by the monk class?
In level 90, i see nothing but hard times for rogues. Abselutly zero burst even with vendetta, only burst assa rogues got is Dispatch?.
Rogue got more substained dmg. but srsly if this is intented, i will leave a class i have played for 8 years! NEVER have rogues been this bad, you should be ashamed blizzard!
Sorry for all the missspells.

Small things in life are to be enjoyed, like smoking and drinking. But the best of all are gaming with 11,5 mill players
You most certainly should lose, in the same gear level, to someone levels below you. As you level, the stats required to get the same effect increase, but your stats did not. While your ratings should be the same, the 85's effective haste/crit/mastery are SOARING above yours; you've been outgeared.
Beyond that, class balance for 1v1, pvp before 90, blah blah blah all applies. Also, you're not really talking to Blizzard on this forum (MMO-champion), but to other players.

Discover the Green Side of Lisbon
Posted by Jeanine Barone in Beyond the Guidebook on September 13, 2013
Anyone who's visited Lisbon can easily reel off the prerequisite activities: listening to melancholic Fado music, hopping aboard an old tram straining up a steep incline, climbing the ramparts of the old Moorish Castelo de São Jorge, visiting the Belem district with its monuments to the great explorers, strolling along a woodland trail.
Huh? What was that last one?

Apple Creative Service Creative Director Cupertino, CA I remembered hearing Apple described as a place of refuge for corporate misfits and non-conformers. Looking back at this period, Apple made the most significant and profound influence on me as a designer. Call it Koolaid 101 or whatever businessism-du-jour, Apple provided me an invaluable life-lesson in entrepreneurship. It showed me that design is not only a form of expression, but also a method of action to accomplish a purpose and satisfy a need. The journey itself was just as important as the destination. Back then, anarchy seemed to be the modus operati inside Apple. It was not the easiest place to work but it was a place where ideas were more important than one's work experience or positions within the organization. Good ideas always trumped constraints imposed by the 'real world'. In a strange way, Apple was a displaced hippie commune that just happened to be in Cupertino. It's important to note that Apple did not actively pursue the crazies and the dreamers. They came because of the idea Apple stands for— the believe that the individual matters and that given the opportunity they can and will change the world. My tenure at Apple was just that opportunity I was looking for. It was during this period that I was exposed to the challenge of explaining and introducing new concepts into a technophobic world. It required an integrated multidisciplinary approach and a willingness to cast away closely held assumptions. These forms of collaboration have since become the core of my design practice. Having helped launch the Macintosh computer, the Desktop Publishing revolution and HyperCard for Apple, I am convinced that designers have to take an active role in shaping the tools that are transforming electronic communications. If the new medium is not designed, someone less astute will engineer it.
