U.S. Drought Monitor Report for the Week Ending July 2 (Text)
Stephen RoseFollowing is the text of the weekly U.S. Drought Monitor as released by the National Drought Mitigation Center in Lincoln, Nebraska:
Weather Summary: During the past week, a strong and persistent area of high pressure dominated the circulation over the western half of the lower 48 states while extending northward to eastern Alaska. That upper-level high pressure area brought much above- normal temperatures to most of the west and Alaska, with some areas breaking heat records. Upper-level low pressure was entrenched over the eastern third of the lower 48 states, bringing copious amounts of rain (1.0 - 8.6 inches) to places east of the Mississippi River. New England and mid-Atlantic: A deep, upper-level trough brought persistent rains (0.5 - 8.6 inches) to the Northeast and Mid- Atlantic. Those rains prompted the removal of D0 (abnormal dryness) from southern Maine and central Pennsylvania. Additionally, the moderate drought (D1) was improved to D0 across northern West Virginia and southwestern Pennsylvania, as rains (0.9 - 3.4 inches) fell across that region. Streamflows across the region are mostly within or above the normal range. Southeast: Moderate to heavy rains (1.0 - 4.5 inches) fell on most of the remaining D0 over northern Florida, southern Alabama, and southern Georgia. Therefore, the remaining area of abnormal dryness (D0) was trimmed considerably across Florida and Georgia, but left nearly intact over Alabama where the rains were not as heavy (0.5 - 1.5 inches). Streamflows across southern Alabama remain below normal in many locations. The Midwest and Northern Plains: Some rains (1.0 - 1.8 inches) fell on the drought area in Minnesota, so some minor adjustments were made to the drought depiction there, with D1 being trimmed slightly where the heaviest rains fell. Further south, rainfall along the Mississippi Valley kept the dryness contained, though across portions of South Dakota and Iowa, little rain fell and temperatures were slightly above normal, so this area needs to be monitored closely. Streamflows across this region are mostly near normal, with a few reporting stations still reflecting the longer term dryness that gripped the Midwest for most of last year. The Central and Southern Plains, and Lower Mississippi River Valley: Isolated areas of rain fell across eastern Kansas and Nebraska, prompting only a small trimming of D0 over eastern Kansas. Over central Nebraska, where not rain fell, D2 was expanded over Lincoln County. North Platte Regional Airport Lee Bird Field is approaching 3 inches below average for the year and has also not seen more than 0.50 inch of rain at one time since May 29. Farther south and west, some rains fell across eastern New Mexico and western Texas. The maximum radar estimated precipitation (4.0 inches) was significantly greater than what was reported at individual stations (1.2 inches), so improvements were not as widespread as when the data sources exhibit better alignment. D4 (exceptional drought) was removed from portions of Harding and San Miguel counties in New Mexico, with slightly larger areas of extreme drought (D3) reduction across western Texas and southeast New Mexico (Yoakum County area). Across eastern and southern Texas, southern Oklahoma, southwest Arkansas, and northwestern Louisiana, dry conditions prompted the expansion and intensification of drought conditions. Streamflows across much of the southern Plains are well below normal, with many stations reporting at or below the 5th percentile. Southwest and West: Hot and dry weather continued over the southwest and much of the west, with many locations breaking daily records for high temperatures. Little to no rain fell across much of the region, although some isolated showers did move across southern Arizona, but the showers were not enough to alleviate the ongoing drought. No rain was measured over northern Arizona, most of Utah, and most of Nevada, so drought conditions intensified. Accordingly, D4 (exceptional drought) was added to Navajo and Apache counties in Arizona, where some reports indicate that working animals have perished and fights have broken out due to lack of water. D3 (extreme drought) was also expanded across northwestern Arizona and southwestern Utah, in the area indicated to the driest by CPC Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) blend. Reports from the Natural Resources Conservation Serve out of Utah indicate that reservoir levels are dropping, soil moisture is near historic lows, and streamflows are in the lowest 25 percent, all indicative of intensifying drought. The CPC SPI and 30 and 60-day percent of normal precipitation were used to indicate the exceptional drought area across northwestern Nevada. Extreme drought (D2) was expanded slightly in western CO. The area was extremely dry during June, and wildfire activity and available fuels are an ongoing issue in the area. Streamflows in the region are much below normal, and modeled soil moisture values indicate D2 conditions. Despite near-normal rains for a small portion of southeastern Colorado, no change was made to the drought depiction as little to no recovery was indicated in stream flows and the reported impacts (ranchers selling herds and little to no ground cover for some pastures) align with the current depiction. A storm system did bring rains to northern California and parts of Oregon, prompting the removal of some D0 (abnormal dryness) from across the Cascades in Oregon. The rest of the depiction remained the same as streamflow responses were minimal. Across Montana, D3 was expanded over Madison County to reflect the ongoing dryness. Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico: Over Hawaii, light rains fell on some stations, but the rains were not significant enough to improve conditions on the ground. Therefore, no changes were made to the drought monitor over Hawaii. Continued dry weather across Alaska prompted the expansion of D1 (moderate drought) and D0 (abnormal dryness). Streamflows continue to decline due to lack of recent rains. According to the USDA Forest Service, there were seven active fires across Alaska as of July 2, with many fires burning in excess of 10,000 acres. Widespread rains fell over Puerto Rico with some stations reporting over 5.0 inches of rain for the week. No drought or dryness is currently indicated for Puerto Rico. Looking Ahead: The next 5 days (July 3-7) favor wet weather across most of the eastern half of the Nation, with heavy rains forecast from the Gulf Coast to the Central Appalachians and portions of the Northeast. Some rains associated with the southwest monsoon are also likely during the next 5 days. Generally, less than 1.0 inches of rain is forecast across the Great Plains and Pacific Northwest. For the ensuing 5 days (July 8-12), the odds favor above-median precipitation over northern Alaska, the southern Rockies, portions of the Great Plains, and from the central Gulf Coast across the Tennessee Valley to the Northeast. Dry conditions are likely across the Pacific Northwest, the Alaskan Panhandle, and the immediate southeast coast. Temperatures are likely to be above normal west of the continental divide, and across the northeast, with below-normal temperatures favored over the center of the lower 48 states.

I agree. I was just saying Warlocks who liked the 'Dark character' concept did move over to Death Knights when they were introduced because it opened up melee and tanking to them if that's where their ideals lay. Not saying Warlocks wouldn't loose players, I just think DKs and Rogues would be more 'at risk' as it were; and again I don't even think that's necessarily a bad thing as it allows players who aren't entirely happy to move to something they're more looking for.
I really do think it would be better for everyone to have Demon Hunters as their own class as it would automatically resolve all the issues raised in this and other threads, and allow the designers to focus totally on the design of them from the ground up without breaking things for existing players of this or other classes.

There are a few simple guidelines taught to any new drinker: Liquor before beer and you're in the clear; beer before liquor and you'll never be sicker. But forget that old adage and sip on Well Built ESB, a collaboration between Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey (read about the company here) and Breckenridge Brewing Company. The barrel-aged extra special bitter beer is bottled with branding from both the distillery and brewery on the label.
"We've achieved balance," Breckenridge's brewmaster Todd Ursy says. "There's a great blend between wood and whiskey, neither overpowering the other." Made from 100 percent English malt imported from the United Kingdom, Well Built ESB has a 7.8 percent ABV with a flavor hints of oak, caramel, dark cherry, and fruit.
The first small batch of 750 ml bottles hits Colorado-only shelves today and you can find it on draft at a few taprooms statewide. The next batch is already in the barrels, but the plan is to release a new one each quarter. "It's a small, neighborly, friendly batch," Ursy says. "Get it while you can."

Kuwait's NBK Profit Beat Estimates Amid 'Ongoing Challenges'
Fiona MacDonaldNational Bank of Kuwait SAK, the country's largest lender, posted 2012 earnings that beat estimates amid what it called a "stagnant" operating environment. The shares fell after it proposed a lower dividend.
Net income rose 0.9 percent to 305.1 million dinars ($1.1 billion), the bank said in an e-mailed statement today. That compares with a mean estimate of 302.6 million dinars from five analysts, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
"We achieved a solid set of results despite the ongoing challenges," Group Chief Executive Officer Ibrahim Dabdoub said. "The outlook for 2013 has improved as we expect to see more government spending, mainly on mega projects, which in turn generates economic activity and creates opportunities for the private sector." Last year was "turbulent" for the banking industry "as the operating environment remained stagnant," Dabdoub said.
The global credit crisis weakened lending and investment banking in the Middle East, pushing up loan-loss provisions and led to a drop in the value of investments. Kuwait has dragged implementation of a $110 billion development plan to diversify and modernize its oil-reliant economy, hampering the demand for debt.
The board recommended a cash dividend of 30 fils a share and five bonus shares for every 100, the bank said. NBK paid a cash dividend of 40 fils and 10 bonus shares for every 100 in 2011. The shares dropped 2 percent, the most since Oct. 22, to 970 fils. There are 1,000 fils to the dinar. The stock lost 5.7 percent last year compared with a 2.1 percent gain in the Kuwait Stock Exchange Index.
"NBK's results were better than our expectations, on account of higher capital gains and lower provisions," said Naveed Ahmed, a banking analyst at Kuwait City-based Global Investment House KSCC. "While the quality of earnings is lower than what we would be happy with, lower-than-expected provisions might actually be a good sign, though needs further investigation. We are happy with the payouts which are in line with our forecast."
Kuwaiti loan growth rose to 5.2 percent in the year to November, having risen as high as 5.5 percent in September, the fastest pace in almost three years. Personal loans grew 12 percent. While political turmoil thwarted attempts to speed up investment projects and spur corporate lending, the government and parliament have pledged cooperation to put the development plan on a fast track.

A blighted tomato.
GARDENING THIS year, we could easily have been dubbed the Isle of Blight.
The wet weather may have had the positive effect of killing off wasps but it also ensured all manner of other diseases flourished to frustrate our best efforts in the garden.
Author and keen gardener Alan Stroud summed it up eloquently for me.
"What a summer! I was going to open my garden as a theme park — Blight World. Everyone I know has had it in potatoes, tomatoes and, for the second year, I now have leek rust, which is threatening to destroy my crop — but not a word from you!
"Someone said to me: 'That Richard Wright an't mentioned it. P'raps he an't got it.' Did you?"
Sadly, I did get a touch of the blight on my tomatoes in the greenhouse, in common with several of my gardening friends.
And one, who I bumped into in the supermarket the other day, had identical symptoms and did the same thing as I to control the misery that is late blight.
In common with him, I do not like spraying tomatoes, especially those under cover, because chemicals must get absorbed into the fruit.
In late June, I was forced to uproot the worst affected plant but I left the remainder, just employing the technique of chopping off the worst-affected foliage.
The plants may not look pretty at the moment, bearing the scars of disease, but they seem to have beaten off the blight of their own accord and are producing an abundance of fruit.
The potatoes are another matter and I have been tempted to spray on occasion in an often vain battle to defeat what can turn a healthy crop into an evil-smelling decaying mass in a matter of days.
Powerful fungicides used by commercial growers are not available to us gardeners and we have been forced to rely in large part on Bordeaux Mixture, which is a blend of copper sulphate and hydrated lime.
It has also proved invaluable as an autumn and spring spray to prevent peach leaf curl, although I would personally not spray it directly on fruit to control apple canker.
Soon I won't be able to use it at all, so a handy tip — if you want to stock up — is to do so before February 28 next year when it will be banned.
You then have two years in which you can store and use the mixture, which comes as a dissolvable powder. But my guess is there will be some desperate lawbreakers out there who might be tempted to cock a snook and keep it for longer.
The Sarpo potato range exhibits more effective resistance than other cultivars to blight and can be grown satisfactorily without fungicide protection. Some old favourites, including Arran Pilot, King Edward, Majestic and Sharpe's Express, are very susceptible.
Tomatoes are generally very prone to blight but the varieties Ferline, Legend and Fantasio are claimed to show some resistance.
Rust is another difficult-to-prevent disease, which appears in different form on many crops.
This year, reports have reached me of runner bean rust.
Pete Osborne, when he is not making beautiful hand-crafted mahogany and brass cribbage boards down in Ventnor, is often to be found out in the garden where mice just destroyed his beautiful crop of sweet beetroots and where the leaves of his runners have developed the characteristic brown blotches of rust.
Bean rust is not really treatable, other than removing the affected leaves. It most often affects mature leaf growth and removal allows greater air circulation and makes it less likely spores will settle and flourish in a humid environment.
It is also a disease of later season, which means it starts to take effect when most of the harvest has taken place and it has to be quite bad before yield is affected.
Rust on leeks is another matter.
There are no chemical controls that I know about for controlling the fungal problem, which can also manifest itself on onions and garlic.
Leeks which develop rust lose vigour in the late summer and early autumn, and fail to thrive.
I am currently experimenting with a variety, which the seed company claims is rust resistant and, at the moment, the plants appear very healthy indeed.
But there are a few tips from the Royal Horticultural Society:
• Infection is worse on nitrogen-rich soils with low potassium, so take care with fertiliser applications.
• Do not crowd plants as this raises humidity and increases the likelihood of infection.
• Dispose of all plant debris at the end of cropping.
I may also escape leek rust because of my heavy use of seaweed, which is high in potassium.
Wood ash too is rich in potash and, hence, potassium and I frequently use the subsistence farming technique of cultivating the next year after an autumn bonfire.

text: Why Would An Olympic Basketball Player Not Want To Lead His Team In Scoring? To Avoid Drug Testing.Tom Ley7/26/12 4:25pmFiled to: Olympics1994 Olympic basketball teamGrant HillBasketballNews11EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Thanks to Grant Hill, another interesting piece of Olympic basketball lore has risen to the surface. Yesterday, Hill went on the Dan Patrick Show, and talked about how nobody on the 1996 Olympic basketball team wanted to be the team's leading scorer, because that person would automatically have to submit to a drug test.AdvertisementHill explains:It was actually pretty funny - nobody on the team wanted to be the leading scorer in those games, in the Olympic games. Because whoever was the leading scorer, ended up having to be drug tested.And the reason for that is the drug testing process, you'd be there for two hours after the game. And so nobody wanted to be there and have to go through that whole process.So if you watch those games and you watch the highlights at the end of the games, everyone is being super unselfish passing the ball. Because no one wants to shoot (laughs).So now we finally know how to sublimate the alpha dog mentality of an NBA player: Threaten him with a two-hour wait and a piss test.Advertisement[The Dan Patrick Show via The Basketball Jones]Reply11 repliesLeave a reply

- Meanwhile, prepare gravy mix according to package directions. Stir in pepper. Place fries on a serving plate; top with cheese curds and gravy. Yield: 4 servings.
Reviews for Poutine
"No self respecting Canuck would use frozen french fries though! I love my poutine even though it is also called "heart attack on a plate" here in SW Ontario. And I always sprinkle lots of salt and white vinegar on top --using homemade fries. Then the poutine is "to die for" and I guess that is where its "other" name comes from!"
"My daughter and I really liked this (I used cheese since cheese curds don't seem to exist here in TX). My husband and son refused to try it."
"We loved these fries!!! I've seen them featured on Food Network a bunch of times and always wanted to try them... They may not be exactly like how they make them in Canada, but they were delicious! We used a bag of shoestring fries and two packets of gravy... My daughter wanted to add some sliced green onion to them so we added some to the gravy when it was done so the onion would cook through a little bit. Embarrassed to admit, but we polished off the whole thing in one sitting between two adults and two teenagers:)"
"We had Poutine at a Wedding recently and it was a huge, late night buffet success. The Canadian secret is to use a light gravy, so modify any store bought gravy accordingly and to use very fresh cheese curds; no more than one day old, which may be a problem for some, but important for authenticity. Enjoy.....skeptical guests were hooked after the first bite and you will be too!"

Uses Of Oregano Oil
Oregano oil is a very effective and natural alternative to various traditional medicines. It is because of the presence of herbal ingredients such as phenol, carvacrol and carbolic acid, the uses of oregano oil have become so popular. Recently, various researchers have found that oregano oil is extremely helpful in healing various ailments, besides being anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-fungal.
Following are some of the most common uses of oregano oil:
Oregano Oil Can Kill Bacteria
According to the various studies conducted all across the world, oregano is proved to have herbal properties to kill bacteria because of the phenolic substances present in their structure. Oregano is very healthy and can even help in improving the body's important cell protection system. It also prevents the formation of diabetes and cancer. Further, it regulates the cholesterol level of the body. It also helps in preventing tumors and slows ageing of cells.
Oregano Oil To Treat Eczema
Oregano Oil is very powerful for human skin and therefore is considered very effective in curing serious skin problem like eczema. So, you should ideally dilute the extra strength oregano oil with olive oil in the ration of 25:1. Also, you must do a small skin test with oregano oil for checking the skin sensitivity or allergic reaction. After done with this, you just need to rub oil of oregano on the eczema spots.
Oregano Oil On Gums and Teeth
Oregano Oil is also a very effective herb that can also be used in treating various dental problems. Just use a drop of this oil on your toothbrush rather than using it on the toothpaste while brushing your teeth. You can even rub the oil on the teeth and gums for various infections. It should be used once or maximum twice daily.
Oregano Oil In Soap
Always test a small amount of oregano oil first for sensitivity or allergic reaction. Add a few drops to all pump soaps and use during showering and hand washing for excellent hand and body antiseptic.
Above mentioned are some of the most common and prominent uses of oregano oil.

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. - The JetHawks fell to the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes, 12-6, on Thursday night at LoanMart Field to snap their second half-opening seven game win streak.
The Quakes jumped on starter Brady Rodgers (5-5) early in his first start since returning from a brief stint with Triple-A Oklahoma City. Rodgers allowed two runs in the second inning and was then removed from the game in the third inning with a hand injury. He allowed four runs on six hits over 2 1/3 innings.
Darnell Sweeney hit a solo home run against Rodgers and led the Quakes attack with a 3-for-5 night. He doubled twice and drove in four runs.
Andrew Aplin led the JetHawks comeback charge. Aplin finished 3-for-3 with two runs scored and two RBI. He walked and picked up a run with a sacrifice-fly as well.
Theron Geith allowed two runs over 1 2/3 innings out of the bullpen after entering the game for the injured Rodgers.
Chris Devenski, the tandem starter, allowed six runs (five earned) on four hits over two innings. He walked two without recording a strikeout.
Cameron Lamb threw two scoreless innings out of the bullpen.
Lancaster attempted to rally late in the game. Nolan Fontana doubled and scored on an Aplin single to start the eighth but Aplin was thrown out at second base trying to stretch the hit to a double. M.P. Cokinos, who finished the game 3-for-5, followed with a double and scored on Joe Sclafani's fourth homer of the season.
In the ninth, Chris Epps doubled and would later come around to score the JetHawks final run of the game.
Quakes starter Carlos Frias (1-1) allowed two runs (one earned) on five hits over six innings. He struck out eight Lancaster hitters.
The JetHawks (7-1, 46-32) take on the Quakes (1-7, 32-46) in game two of the series on Friday at 7:05 pm in Rancho Cucamonga. David Rollins and Tyson Perez will pitch against Quakes starter Gustavo Gomez.

Texas Mayor Speaks Against Oil Extraction updated: Aug 01, 2014, 10:45 AM
By Arlo Bender-Simon
Former Mayor Of Dish, Texas Speaks Out Against The Expansion Of High-Risk Oil Extraction
Warns Santa Barbara County Of What's To Come If Measure P Fails
A former mayor from Denton County, Texas came to speak in Santa Maria this past Friday. Calvin Tillman knows firsthand what happens when the fossil fuel industry is allowed to rapidly expand drilling operations; as mayor, it was his job to know.
His presentation began with a google map image of Dish, Texas, an image scarred with a disease-like array of oil and gas well pads and facilities. Tillman and his family moved out of Dish a few years ago because it was no longer the community they wanted to live in. Not only had rural Dish, located just north of Fort Worth, been transformed by increased extraction, his children's health suffered and his backyard now featured the view of a massive gas processing facility.
Tillman challenged many of the arguments that the industry makes in defense of its track record, arguments that this county will be hearing extensively leading up to the November election when voters will decide on Measure P, which would ban fracking and other extreme forms of oil extraction in Santa Barbara County.
For example, Tillman challenged the Industry's contention that there have been no proven links between the past decade's fracking boom and groundwater contamination. Firstly, the Industry is being misleading. Technically, the term "fracking" only applies to the actual rock fracturing process. Proven aquifer contamination is more often linked to to well casing failures and spills, rather than the actual breaking up of rock deep underground. Secondly, the fracking process is exempt from the Clean Water Act, the Clean Air Act, and a few other key environmental safety mechanisms so federal agencies are not monitoring it as much as they should be. And lastly, Non-Disclosure Agreements are a legal way for the industry to get people to shut up. Many neighbors of drilling operations or those with wells/facilities on their land have signed on to an agreement like this. The industry offers to pay to replace the water that has been contaminated by their operations, or gives a sizable check. In return, the signee can never discuss the terms of the agreement or the operations they concern.
Tillman also spoke to the problems of air contamination. He highlighted an often overlooked source of air contamination, Volatile Organic Compounds. Propane, benzene, and other components of gasoline are examples of dangerous volatile organic compounds. Tillman explained that these substances are not visible to the human eye and thus are often being expelled from sites which appear to have little, if any, emissions.
Santa Barbara County stands on the verge of a boom in unconventional, risky oil extraction. Thousands upon thousands of new well sites are waiting to be drilled, oil and gas companies operating in this county are excited, and they expect that their profits will soon be on the rise.
"We don't do what we do for money, and that's the difference." With this statement, Mr. Tillman struck at the heart of the issue. The Santa Barbara County Water Guardians have been accused of being a part of a "cottage industry of activists" coordinating nationally. This is partly correct, there is a wave of concerned citizens across the United States of America who are standing up to the fossil fuel industry and saying NO MORE. No more water contamination, no more sick children, no more false promises, no more lies. Communities are reaching out to each other, forming networks, and sharing information. Not in order to make a profit, but to protect our homes.
Calvin Tillman ended his talk with the simple reality. We here in Santa Barbara can choose to do nothing, and allow what has happened to Denton County, Texas to happen here. Or, we can do something about it, we can take a stand and who knows, maybe we will have prevented disaster. The Santa Barbara County Water Guardians have already gotten the ball rolling, now we need you to join us.

Class Skills (4 + Int modifier per level, ×4 at 1st level) |
Class FeaturesEdit
All of the following are class features of the hexblade.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency (Ex): A hexblade is proficient with all simple weapons, martial weapons, light armor, and light shields.
Maneuvers (Ex): A hexblade begins his career with three maneuvers chosen from the Dread Crown, Hollow Nymph, Shadow Hand, and Stone Dragon disciplines. His alternate disciplines (any alternate discipline can be substituted for a discipline known, but this choice must be made at first level in the class and is irrevocable) are Black Heron, Oncoming Storm, and Onyx Zombie. Once he knows a maneuver, he must ready it before he can use it (see Maneuvers Readied, below). A maneuver usable by hexblades is considered an extraordinary ability unless otherwise noted in its description. Maneuvers are not affected by spell resistance, and do not provoke attacks of opportunity when initiated.
A hexblade learns additional maneuvers at higher levels, as shown on Table 1-1: The Hexblade. A hexblade counts his full class levels towards his initiator level, rather then half as normal.
Upon reaching 6th level, and at every two hexblade levels after that (8th, 10th, 12th and so on), a hexblade can choose to learn a new maneuver in place of one he already knows. In effect, he loses the old maneuver in exchange for the new one. He can choose a new maneuver of any level he wishes, as long as it is not greater than his highest maneuver level known. For example, upon reaching 11th level, a hexblade could trade in a single 1st-, 2nd-, 3rd- or 4th-level maneuver for a maneuver of 5th level or lower, as long as he meets the prerequisite of the new maneuver. Only a single maneuver can be swapped at any given level.
Maneuvers Readied (Ex): A hexblade can ready all of the maneuvers he knows at 1st level, but as he advances in level and learns more maneuvers, he must choose which maneuvers to ready. A hexblade readies maneuvers by practicing sleight of hand, balance, and stealth while unobserved; doing so takes 1 hour of uninterrupted concentration. Rest is not required to ready maneuvers; any time a hexblade is unobserved and able to practice, he can change his readied maneuvers.
A hexblade begins an encounter with all her readied maneuvers unexpended, regardless of how many times she might have already used them since she chose them. When she initiates a maneuver, she expends it for the current encounter, so each of her readied maneuvers can be used once per encounter (unless she recovers them, as described below).
Whenever an opponent fails an attack roll, skill check, or casts a spell which is successfully saved against by all targets, the hexblade may recover a readied maneuver as an immediate action. Whenever an opponent under his Curse dies, he may recover all his readied maneuvers as an immediate action. He may also recover one maneuver he knows with a DC 15 Sleight of Hand check; this check is a full-round action that provokes attacks of opportunity and is interrupted by attacks of opportunity, and he is flatfooted during it.
Stances Known (Ex): A hexblade begins play with knowledge of one 1st-level stance from any discipline open to him. At the levels indicated on Table 1-1: The Hexblade, he can choose additional stances. Unlike maneuvers, stances are not expended, and the hexblade does not have to ready them. All the stances he knows are available to him at all times, and he can change the stance he is currently using as a swift action. A stance is an extraordinary ability unless otherwise stated in the stance description.
Unlike with maneuvers, a hexblade cannot learn a new stance at higher levels in place of one he already knows.
Hexblade's Curse (Su): At first level, a hexblade has mastered the dark signature of the class, her Curse. Cursing an opponent is a move action that does provoke attacks of opportunity; opponents are allowed a Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 your class level + your Charisma bonus) to resist. On a failed save, they are subject to a -2 luck penalty to attack rolls, AC, saves, and skill checks for the rest of the encounter. A hexblade may Curse an opponent once per encounter; they may use their Curse once more per encounter at levels 5, 10, and 15. If an opponent successfully saves against a Curse, they are immune to the hexblade's Curse for 24 hours, but the Curse is not used up.
At 8th level, a hexblade's Curse acquires an extra bite to it. The luck penalty from a successful curse increases to -4, and they take a -10 luck penalty to their speed (all movement modes).
At 16th level, a hexblade's Curse is truly deserving of the sobriquet "Dire". The luck penalty from a successful curse increases to -6, and they apply twice the hexblade's Charisma bonus as a luck penalty to any DR, energy resistance, and spell resistance they possess.
Witch Knight (Sp): As an Eldritch Blast can be shaped and infused, so too can the hexblade's Weird Strike. Starting at first level, a hexblade gains the ability to apply eldritch essence invocations to her Weird Strike ability, adding the effects to the effects of the attack and heightening Weird Strike to the equivalent spell level of the invocation. In addition, at each level marked on the chart (1st, 5th, 10th, 15th) the hexblade gains a bonus eldritch essence invocation of the indicated tier. Applying eldritch essence invocations to a Weird Strike is a swift action, and the use of this class ability is not subject to arcane spell failure chance.
Arcane Resistance (Su): Starting at 2nd level, the hexblade adds her Charisma bonus (mininum 1) to saves against spells and spell-like abilities.
Voodoo Style (Su): At 3rd level, a hexblade must choose his Voodoo Style from the available options listed below.
- Brutal Juju: The hexblade may use his Strength instead of his Charisma to determine the save DCs of invocations and hexblade class features against an opponent currently afflicted by his Curse. In addition, whenever he strikes an opponent by surprise or confirms a critical hit, he may use his Curse against that opponent as a swift action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity, and he may add his Strength bonus to the save DC.
- Martial Mojo: The hexblade may substitute her Charisma for any other ability score when determining the save DC of a maneuver from one of her hexblade disciplines she is initiating against an opponent afflicted by her Curse. In addition, she adds one-half her Charisma modifier (rounded down) to her hitpoints gained at each level (retroactive).
- Wicked Ways: The hexblade's Curse is a subtle poison in the souls of his victims. Targets of the hexblade's Curse are not aware they have been cursed unless they make their save; even if they do, they must succeed on an immediate Sense Motive check versus the hexblade's Sleight of Hand check or remain unaware of the curse attempt. In addition, increase the DC of your Curse by 2.
Weird Strike (Su): The hexblade's counterpart to the warlock's Eldritch Blast, Weird Strike is an awful tangle of black magic swirled into an attack and used against an unfortunate foe to ruinous effect. Whenever a hexblade attacks an opponent currently under the hexblade's curse, he deals the indicated bonus vile damage.
Dark Companion (Ex): Upon reaching 4th level, the hexblade gains the service of a loyal companion. He gains a familiar as a sorcerer/wizard of his level - 3, except that it benefits from the dark template.
Aura of Ill Omen (Su): At 6th level, once per encounter, a hexblade can radiate a debiliating aura of misfortune and woe. As a swift action, she may project the Aura of Ill Omen (lasting a number of rounds equal to her Charisma bonus, minimum 1), granting her a 20% miss chance against melee and ranged attacks. In addition, hostile spells of which she is the only target suffer 10% arcane failure chance.
Black Benediction (Su): At 7th level, if an opponent misses an attack or fails a spell against the hexblade due to miss chance or arcane spell failure chance, and the hexblade's Aura of Ill Omen class feature is active, you may end the aura as an immediate action in exchange for a +4 profane bonus to attack rolls, AC, and saves against that opponent. This bonus lasts a number of rounds equal to your Charisma bonus, minimum 1.
Bonus Feat (Ex): At 9th level, and again at 13th and 19th level, a hexblade gains a bonus feat from the following list: Blade Meditation, Extra Invocation, Martial Study, Martial Stance, any tactical feat with a prerequisite of one or more maneuvers or stances from a specific discipline.
Aura of Calamity (Su): At 12th level, a hexblade's Aura of Ill Omen becomes the Aura of Calamity, granting her a 50% miss chance against melee and ranged attacks, and improving her inflicted arcane failure chance to 25%.
((Anchor|Greater Arcane Resistance}} (Su): At 14th level, the hexblade gains spell resistance equal to 15 + her Charisma bonus.
Storm of Curses (Su): At 17th level, a hexblade no longer has a limit on his Curse ability; he may use it as often as he pleases in a given encounter. Additionally, once per encounter, he may take a full-round action that provokes attacks of opportunities to attempt to Curse a number of enemies equal to his Charisma modifier.
Aura of Doom (Su): At 18th level, a hexblade's Aura of Calamity becomes the Aura of Doom, allowing her to wreak unimagined havoc on the battlefield. Any attack that misses her or spell that fails against her has a chance, through twisted ties of fate and deep voodoo, to strike the attacker or one of the hexblade's other opponents. Roll randomly to determine who among her enemies is the victim; the attack or spell is repeated against the victim under the exact conditions it was performed against the hexblade.
Destiny Desecration (Su): At 20th level, once per day, a hexblade can reach deep into the realm of fate and tear open an awful wound. As a full-round action, she can force a single opponent to make a Will save or be utterly destroyed, as if that opponent had come into contact with a sphere of annihilation. Even if they save, they are immediately afflicted as if by a hexblade's Dire Curse, allowing no save and not counting against per-encounter uses of Hexblade's Curse.

Criticism of Mormonism/Video/Search for the Truth DVD
Jesus Christ/Joseph Smith or Search for the Truth DVD
Jesus Christ / Joseph Smith
Replies and resources addressing the Search for the Truth DVD
A collaborative effort of FAIR. On 25 March 2007, a ninety-minute video entitled Search for the Truth was distributed to thousands of homes across the United States. The video has excellent production values but, unfortunately, its contents are not of a similar quality. Though it purports to be an objective Christian evaluation of the teachings, history, and beliefs of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, it contains much that is inaccurate and very little that is balanced. Rather than focus on what they believe, the video's producers have taken it upon themselves to describe and interpret LDS beliefs and teachings, often in ways that would be objectionable or unrecognizable to Latter-day Saints. The video contains many of the same anti-Mormon claims that misguided critics have been repeating for years. The issues it raises have been repeatedly addressed by faithful Latter-day Saints, but the video does not address or take those responses into account. This page provides information that will help you compare the video's claims with the actual history, teachings, and beliefs of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
