Lea Michele to Sing at Super Bowl
She'll belt out "America the Beautiful."
Christina Aguilera may have "The Star-Spangled Banner," but Lea Michele has found a way to be seen, singing, by a hundred million souls nonetheless. Michele will perform "America the Beautiful" before the Super Bowl on February 6. Seeing as she'll also appear in countless Glee promos during the broadcast, and then in the Glee episode right after, we expect activity on the "Cheesheads for Lea" message board to jump significantly.

WJC 2013: Canada falls in first pre-tournament gameby Rob Mixer / Columbus Blue Jackets
There's certainly pressure on Team Canada as pre-tournament play begins today, but with the team already selected, it's more about fine-tuning the engine.
After a 3-2 loss to Finland today in Helsinki, head coach Steve Spott will likely have a list of things to review with his club. The Canadians weren't very crisp with the puck (especially in the neutral zone) and made far too many mistakes that Finland would eventually take advantage of.
Finland was strong from the start and forced Canada into four minor penalties in the first 15 minutes of play. On their fourth power play of the opening period, Joel Armia set up Markus Granlund to give the Finns a 1-0 lead that they would take into the dressing room after 20 minutes.
But as they have shown over the years, the Canadians have a quick-strike offense that can change a game in the blink of an eye.
Blue Jackets prospect Boone Jenner got Canada going in the second period with a deft set up that Griffin Reinhart buried at 3:05 of the middle frame.
Just 26 seconds later, it was Mark Scheifele finding pay dirt to give Canada 2-1 lead -- but Finland answered back. Ville Jarvelainen tallied on the power play late in the second period to tie the game, and Miro Aaltonen gave Finland a 3-2 lead that it would hang on to with just under 12 minutes left in regulation.
Canada was out-shot 42-27 on the day and really struggled to get anything going in the third period. Their second and final pre-tournament game is Saturday vs. Sweden, with the face-off set for 9 a.m. ET.

Full disclosure: I am one of the owners of Theoretically Brewing Company based in Lethbridge, so the move to tie Federal Excise Tax on alcohol to the CPI directly affects my business.
On June 22, the federal budget was approved which included measures to tie federal excise taxes on alcohol to the Consumer Price Index, which means that as inflation goes up, so will taxes on booze.
Now, excise tax is applied to many different things: almost everything imported — petroleum, alcohol, tobacco, shampoo (yes, really), but only the excise tax on alcohol was selected to be tied to the CPI in the budget.
Excise tax is paid by manufacturers/importers of alcoholic products on a per-litre basis, and makes up a good portion of the cost of your beverage. Often these taxes are passed down to the consumer, which means that starting next year, and indefinitely, the price of alcohol will climb steadily.
This is not a good thing, particularly for a fledgling brewing/distilling industry just getting on its feet in Alberta.
We would like to propose an equitable solution to the tax increases: exemption for craft producers making less than 5,000hL annually and using 100 per cent -Canadian-grown/processed malts in their product.
Malt (including barley and other grains) is the key ingredient in beer. Small craft producers focus on sourcing ingredients as close to home as they can — which is important in southern Alberta where malting barley is becoming one of the biggest crops. We proudly source all of our ingredients (hops, yeast, and malt) from Canadian suppliers.
There is already precedent for this as wine made with Canadian-grown grapes is exempt from excise taxes. We think the same should apply to beer and spirits.
This will accomplish three things:
1. Make locally-made craft beer more competitive in the market, which will ensure employment opportunities as the businesses grow (craft brewers hold five per cent market share in Alberta but employ over 80 per cent of the people in brewery-related jobs);
2. Ensure that local barley farmers (our heroes) have a constant and growing demand for their crops (bolsters local economy); and
3. Give rise to a small-batch malting industry already in its infancy in the province — more jobs.
We call upon the federal government to support the growing craft-brewing industry across the nation, and provide an exemption for your small, local brewers.
Kelti Boissonneault, Lethbridge, Alta.

Baroness Jay of Paddington: My Lords, I wish to support the amendment for the reasons that have been given so eloquently by the noble Lord, Lord Swinfen, and my noble friend Lord Ashley of Stoke.
I have one additional concern relating to the impact of discrimination in this field; namely, the area of parental genetic counselling in order to achieve the prospect of a healthy child for parents who have a genetic predisposition. It may sound rather far-fetched, but it is already the case that identifying the gene for cystic fibrosis and replacing it through in vitro fertilisation techniques has meant that healthy babies have been born to parents who might previously have been at risk of producing a child with that particular condition. We should resolutely turn our faces against anything which leads the parents of children who might be healthy to refrain from the kind of genetic counselling and testing which might lead them to produce another generation of more advantaged children.
The paradox which is possible in the present situation is that where genetic counselling, genetic testing and identifying genetic markers is potentially one of the most exciting and liberating developments in medical science at the end of the 20th century, if it becomes the case that people feel that identifying those markers in their own personal situation will lead to discrimination, they will be less likely to take advantage of those extraordinary scientific advances which may help their own condition and in which medical science may be able to help future generations of children.
It is sometimes argued that, theoretically, the whole population has the potential for some kind of genetic problem. The issue now is that we are in a situation where science has developed so far that we can talk about specific developments in genetic markers which means that it is not sensible to talk about the whole population being at risk. It is possible to identify people who are at risk. We are beginning to see the results of work now on Alzheimer's disease as well as on other diseases such as Huntington's chorea and cystic fibrosis. It seems to me that it would be very foolish if at this stage we exacerbated the potential paradox of allowing people who may be helped in this way to feel that they will be discriminated against. I support the amendment.
Earl Russell: I am grateful to the noble Lord, Lord Swinfen, for introducing an amendment which is not only important but also likely to be a great deal more important in 20 years' time than it is now.
In supporting the amendment, I must declare an interest. In doing so I should say that the issue of genetic counselling is perhaps slightly more complicated than the noble Baroness, Lady Jay of Paddington, suggested. When my father was in his twenties, which is now about 100 years ago, he was earnestly advised by several doctors that because there was a history of mental illness in the family he should never allow himself to have children. I declare an interest in the view that it is a good thing that he did not take that advice.
I say to the noble Lord, Lord Vinson, that my grandfather was an epileptic. It never occurred to me for a moment that that was a reason why I should not have a
Lord Inglewood: We have had an extremely interesting and very wide debate. At the risk of being slightly narrow minded, I draw the attention of the Committee to the fact that we are debating Part 2 of the Bill which relates to employment matters.
The debate echoed a number of points which were raised earlier. I should like to echo a point raised on a number of occasions by my noble friend Lord Mackay; namely, that this is a disability discrimination Bill. It is designed to cover people who would commonly be understood to be disabled. That is someone who has an impairment which has a long-term and substantial adverse effect on normal day-to-day activities. We think that these are the people everyone generally takes to be disabled. We have already included in the Bill the people who would be commonly understood to be disabled: people with severe disfigurements; people with a progressive condition which is in its early stages; and people with recurring substantial effects. However, we have to draw the line somewhere, and we must draw it where there is not and never has been a disability as it is commonly understood.
The noble Lord argued that people with genetic predispositions suffer discrimination. However, a person with a genetic predisposition is not disabled and therefore that argument is not relevant to the Bill, although it may be relevant to other matters.
I should like to touch on a point made by my noble friend Lord Swinfen in relation to house insurance premiums. I can tell him that the Government have powers in the Bill to prevent insurance companies discriminating unjustifiably against disabled people. Refusing to insure a disabled person or charging a higher premium than normal where there is no actuarial or other good reason for doing so will be prohibited. However, I have to tell my noble friend that the Government will not require insurance companies to charge lower premiums than the risk insured requires simply because the risk is based on the customer's disability. I am aware of no legislation in the world which would require insurance companies to do that.
As the debate has shown, there are serious ethical questions surrounding the whole topic of genetic testing. The rapid advance in scientific understanding of our genetic structure opens up a number of possibilities. It seems likely that in the relatively near future it will be possible to identify genetic predispositions in all of us. Does that mean that all of us will be disabled and covered by the Bill? Of course not. It means that scientists will be able to see in advance what conditions we are most prone to should we have the good fortune to live to old age.
I do not deny that the whole field of genetics needs to be looked at in its entirety. The Select Committee in another place is due to publish a report on the subject shortly. It would be a mistake to pre-empt that debate by accepting
Lord Eatwell: Before the noble Lord sits down, perhaps I may ask him to reconsider the proposition that he made about insurance. It is not true that no insurance companies in the world would consider the generality of insurance to be separate from the risk of individuals. For example, in Germany, motor insurance does not consider the specific characteristics of individual drivers. The standard fee is related to the size of vehicle; and that is all. The structure is quite different from that of insurance in the UK. As a result, insurance is more widely held. There is less evasion. The settlement of insurance claims is more rapid; and the cost per driver on average is less because the risk is more widely spread.
It is an example by which insurance, by not discriminating between individuals, proves to be more efficient. The statement that the noble Lord made about the nature of insurance companies is not true.
Lord Inglewood: Perhaps I may answer the point made by the noble Lord. We are at cross-purposes. The proposition that I made, and I stick by it, is that I am aware of no legislation in the world that requires insurance companies to make such provision. The noble Lord described a situation in Germany. I have no reason to suppose that what he says is not 100 per cent. accurate. We are talking about legislation, not the commercial practice of insurance companies.
Baroness Jay of Paddington: At the risk of prolonging this interesting debate, perhaps I may say this. I believe the noble Lord has the point slightly wrong about the whole population being at genetic risk. Specific conditions have been identified in the Bill as being required to be on the face of the Bill as special cases. We debated whether HIV should be added to cancer and the other conditions which are described.
We can all hope for the day when a genetic marker will tell us whether or not we shall be more intelligent, or will live to 104 years. However, we have already identified genetic markers about specific genetic disabilities which could be included in the Bill.
Lord Inglewood: I am grateful to the noble Baroness. Undoubtedly in her own right she is a great deal more knowledgeable on these matters than I am. However, the point to which I return is that in the Bill we are talking about when the disability manifests itself. That is the focus on which we have debated the matter.
Baroness Hollis of Heigham: We have been talking about when the disability manifests itself, or gives rise to discrimination. The Minister repeats a problem that we encountered at the beginning of the debate this afternoon. By focusing exclusively on disability, discrimination will be generated against which other people in similar circumstances will have no protection.

He began as quality control manager of the cannery, then cannery manager and finally operations manager of the company.
Upon retirement Charles and Marjorie moved to the Parkrose area where he was involved in several volunteer activities. He belonged to the International Executive Services Corps on a volunteer basis and was assigned, accompanied by his wife, to Columbia, Venezuela and Guatemala on six different occasions.
He also participated in a number of social services for the elderly and needy, including preparing income tax returns for many years. His interests included his family, church, volunteering, travel and gardening. He was an avid stamp collector and Eagle Scout.
He is mourned by those who survive him: loving wife, Marjorie, and three children: sons Charles F. Beardsley (Barbara), of Hood River, Alan Beardsley (Alice), of Sisters, and Carolyn Beardsley, of Beaverton. He is also survived by six grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren.
At his request, no local services are planned and he will be interred with family in St. Louis.

[v6d] ForeCast : A caster Barbarian
Page 1 of 19 • Share •
Page 1 of 19 • 1, 2, 3 ... 10 ... 19
[v6d] ForeCast : A caster Barbarian
General Rating
[Strength] 8/10
[Fun] 10/10
[Tankiness] 9/10
[Farming ability] 7/10 ( we need more speed)
[Uniqueness] 10/10
[Starting char] 7/10 easy possible just takes a bit more time
[Beginner Friendly] 7/10 if you follow all steps mentioned here you wont have a problem ! You just need to be patient
[Uberability] 8/10 as usual caster have huge penalties for Purify Bosses anything else is doable
I want to start this guide with all Persons that deserve Credit:
- Marco and BLaz for creating this awesome Mod
- Stoya for just being awesome and always improving anything
- IwanSquall,BassToMouth,Homm,Preston,DanielWolf for giving feedback
An uncommon Guide about a Barbarian caster
What is it All about ?
First of all, the Game is not designed to have pure Caster Barbarians, so dont expect a CookieCutter build here. If you want to play this build as
your first Character, be aware that you have to invest a bit more time for Unique farming ( = Crystals) than some other chars. Its playstyle however is unique
and very much fun to play. As in Ultimative v6b the discussion about the disadvantage of Caaster classes vs Weapon Dmg classes has raised its new peak, its time
to damp it a bit more by releasing more Caster Guides. As this Build is completely Unique it deserves its full Guide ! I would rate this Build Newbfriendly, as the Guide is build step-by-step
and this Build is anything but a Glasscannon.
A great forecast is to play Forecast!
As already mentioned we have great Variety of skills to choose !
|Powder Keg
|Path of Flames
|Devouring Cloud
|Emerald Prison
|Shatter the Flesh
|Frozen Crown
|Freezing Gale
|Lightning Wall
And with a large Variety of Skills, there a large Variety of Builds:
What Skills to use ? (Early Game)
The Biggest problem of this kind of Character is the Spells we can use, you can believe me ive tried all i could think of and came up with the
following skill proposals for our early-Caster barb:
Fire Dmg Apocalypse:
We can archieve this skill by the TU long staff, so if you want to be a Caster Barbarian from scratch you have to twink either 2 Arcane Crystals or this staff
early on. This skill releases an invisible piercing Fire Nova with a range of 16 yards, here you can see it in Action
- Spoiler:
Of course one type of damage is not enough for a caster build, therefore we need a second source of it, and here i decided for Devouring Cloud. I am
sure not many know this skill, its a Poison Skill that shoots poisonous gas in (i think) 5 Yards, when it lands a poisonous Slime is its leftover, which lasts
for 5 more seconds, its a really Great Skill ! To show a bit more in depth what i am talking about heres a pictur of it in Action:
- Spoiler:
To get this beautiful Skill there are 2 ways of archieving it, either by rare Gloves ( ilvl >=24) and by a rare amulett (ilvl >=72)
Pros and Cons of this Build
|+ Pros
|- Cons
|Eagle stance covers all our Mana Regen and Life regeneration Problems
|We are forced ot get all our dmg spells by Items => therefore we have a limited Itemchoice
|Wolf Aura grants maximum Cast Speed when we are near them
|Castspeed, Barbarians have a maximum Cast Speed of 9 FPA (~0.3 seconds) when we are using a staff and 7FPA when Dual wield
To QQ a bit: Marco should make Sorceress or Druid morphes archievable in Sigma
|A lot of Free Spell dmg ( MoTW Axes, Protector Spirit Bloodlust!
|Needs much Gold and Arcane Crystals at start
|very high life
|Forced to use a staff (4 sockets), that means we are going to loose a lot of potential Defense (not that big of a deal) due to Runemaster
|A lot of fun, cause we are Unique
|Slow start compared to other chars
As Barbarians werent designed to be a Caster, there are not that many Options to put our skillpoints. But here we go:
For many chars the statpoint distribution is fairly easy, but for this Barb its not that trivial to get the best result, here is my proposal. Always keep in mind we got Mountain King which helps us to get a great amount of %AA (up to 75% i think !)
Leveling Progress
- We start as any other regular barbarian in the bitches camp and we do exactly the same thing as ever: Level up to 5 do LC0 and doing Den of Evil to get our Character Orb
- Now twink over Arcane Crystals or the Tiered Unique long Staff ( You damn cheater !!) to get access to our spells, the first points should be put into
Energy and Strength.
- Add Oil of Jewelcraft and Tome of Townportal on to your Character Orb to get Rid of Mana Problems !
- Note grab any Apple, Rune, Ring or Amu on your way and try Lucky recipe or sell for gold ! ( Runes ofc in Socketed Throwing Weapons).
Be patient thats what this build is all about.
- Use Apocalypse to reach Tristram, kill Griswold ( dont forget to rescue Cain !!) and get your Gift Box, you find 1 awesome Items in there( THANKS GREG:
the Kriegsmesser, equip , that helmet ( we dont have any other choice anyway ) and that sword on second weapon slot
- That Sword has Inner Fire Oskill, which heals our life ...so just press W and heal yourself !
- If you can afford Upgrade your TU Staff ! ( i really recommend this one to get lots of dmg !)
- Continue your adventures, skip the Butcher as he is Fire Immune and if you feel underpowered get a mercenary !
- Rerun some Areas before Andariel to get even more Uniques and create TU3 Long staff ( you should be lvl 21 already ) and especially TU Ancient Armor Queen of Glass
- Kill Andariel ( should be easy enough for anybody) and proceed to Act 2, we got Eagle stance already so Manaproblems should be gone once and for all
- Create Honorific Boots and Boost your resists
- Take at least 1 Ride down the Sewers, best is to Level up to 28 already ( best is 30!)
- Gamble rare Gloves that have an ilvl >24 (mine were 27 i think) or use Imbue Quest (charsi) to get such gloves ( ilvl = charlvl +4!) and get a lot of Gold
- if you are Lvl 30 and you gamble rare gloves it works 100% that you can get Devouring Cloud, yet takes a while to get a good lvl
- Reroll your rare Gloves until you roll Devouring Cloud oskill, we want skilllvl 14 or 15 ( this is not that easy^^) all other stats doesnt matter
(pic will be added -threw mine away)
- Add Bonus poison skill duration on to your rings , this greatly Boosts your dmg !
- Upgrade your Weapon and Armor as soon as possible (when you reach required Lvl -Doc is your friend)
- finish Act 2, abuse Protector Spirit Bloodlust if possible
- No changes have to be done ... finish Act 3 and even Act 4 is no problem, upgrade your gear, and get TU Belt from your Crystals
- Start Act 5 and progress till Ancients, you should be Level 47 when you attempt to do Tran Athulua ( Cause of Queen of Glass)
- Complete LC1 ( really this is easy -> Apocalypse for all, Devouring Cloud for Boss)
- Complete Hatred ...Gz ! I assume you are ~Level 50 now
- Do some Cows ( player 8 really helps here as this is easy -> Level 60 is doable
- Start Terror Act 1, add up your resists on to your Boots, if necessary add some pierce to your rings.
- You should be able to finish T Act 1 rather quick and easy
- Go Back to hatred and get your character orb + first Upgrade
- Do hatred Fauztinville until Level ~80 ( not that much fun but not that hard at all)
- gamble rare Boots having ilvl >72 and rare amulet having ilvl >72 and prepare for some rerolling
- rare amulett should get Devouring cloud ( skillvl 24-26) ..this one is mine:
- Spoiler:
- rare Boots should only get +21 to Apocalypse: mine are created a bit later ( and bless for - enemy psn res):
- Spoiler:
- Prepare for Level challenge 2 by using honorific helm with lots of resists -> devouring cloud kills them fast

- Spoiler:
- Go Back to hatred and rip Duncraig until you are >lvl 100 ( Runemaster FTW !!)
- What Runes you Socket into your Equiptment is your choice either the fire way and Ral-Runes or the Poisonous way and using Sol Runes
- Well you could do Countess Minigame and Witch Minigame NOW !
- Finish Terror ( NUFF SAID !You should have gotten the principle by now- even Ancients die fast by Devouring Cloud)
- Tcow for Level 120 Yeah you have done it !
- Preparation for Destruction -> Farm Arcane Crystals and try to get Double Mo Tu6 Long Staff:
- Spoiler:

Mid Game and Farming
If you have followed all these steps above, youre apocalypse dmg should be between 30k and 40k and your Devouring Cloud dmg is above 80k dmg.
This is enough for completing the regular Game with ease, as farming Spot i would advice either some regular Act 5 Area like from Frigid Highlands back to town, Nihlathak and Tran Athulua !
This chart basicly summs up your midgame:
Things to note
- At least 75% all resists - anyone should know this
- Add Runes in every socket possible! (Sol Rune for poison dmg - Ral Rune for Fire Dmg)
- Watch your -enemy Resists : -100% is extremely important !
- If you find one - Craft a Sacred Ancient Armor, add Mos up to 350% ed ( dont forget to Bless and Lucky up!)

Easy Uberquests for us
Summoning Uber
|Heavily Abuse your protector Spirits to tank him, he will 1 shot us ! As soon as Circle spawns summon spirits behind it and kill him
with Apocalypse ( may take a while -but np)
|PreCast Devouring Cloud, and equip one more Honorific with max orbed res
|Same here Precast Devouring Cloud and kill Rest with same Skill
Island of the Sunless Sea Anyone can do it
Khalimgrad Same here
Tran Athulua Main Farming Spot, kill Zons with Apocalypse and rest with Devouring Cloud
Dungeon Uberquests
|It has high Avoid -> We got Poison DMG we dont care !!
|We can only do it if we are Lucky, as soon as Unseelie Dame Spawn we are dead
|Run around and cast Devouring cloud on The projector => watch out for inverse Spiral !
The way to Endgame
Honestly its Incredible Hard to list Endgame Gear for this Barbarian, as in Endgame we got MUCH more choices for Skills than before:
mentionable Available Effective Spells for Endgame
Damage Values here are to compare which skill is better, i am not saying you cant get higher values !
Big Thanks to Stoya For this Awesome Vid
Choose your path !
As already said many times before, Barb is not meant to be a good caster, so we have to decide, either we use our Head or not!
That said, either we decide for Shamanka SU Long Staff and get Awesome 5fpa Cast rate but much lower dmg ( ~50-60k Endgame) or we choose
the Tier6 Long Staff and have Much more dmg but 9fpa Cast Rate (~80k Dmg).
Picture of the headless knigth!
- Spoiler:
This Guide will be Diffrent to the other Guides you can see here on the Forums, thats why i will only list the principles and not just and Endgame Gear.
The necessary Gear is mentioned but my idea is that you will get the idea of this build after you have read this Guide
The "harder Uberquests"
There are 2 Kind of Chars, the one Stoya is trying to point out all the time (Think-Try -Suceed) and the ones that follow the WORA principle (Wear once run anywhere), the later ones are just too simple, they use 1 skill all the time ( Boradside/ATMG/Bowzon/Fortress etc...). We however are clearly placed in the first Group, to make a Barb like this Succesful in Lategame we need to Study the Offline Documentation, as every single Item you dont know may be the solution to your Actual Problem. Okay here we start with the UBERSECTION, it really requires you to have eaten all the Signets and Access to alot of the Items ! If you dont: Jump back to Midgame and Farming section:
|Baal will not loose Poison Resistance ! To be able to kill him its best to either Switch on Hide of the Basilisk and Thunderstone him to Death OR Facemelter and Mindflay him down (SSU Hammerhead Axe!). A further alternative is Dual Wield Shaad Scepter and Use Cataclysm on him. The last method however requires 2 Shaad Runes and how can we get these .... EASY Skip to Toraja Section!
Bull Prince Rodeo
|Yeah This one Looses Poison Resistance (Only Heroic Boss!) Hide behind a corner and use Devouring Cloud,
he should die quite fast ( OFC more methods here, but its PrO to kill Heroics with Poison if possible )
Quov Tsin
| The one and only .... We dont need Devouring Cloud against him and plz do NOT use Apocalypse if you want to kill him on the same day you started the fight. So you need Acces to following Items:
Rape him with Mindflay// Thunderstone//Cataclysm
|This one is not that easy as for most other Casterclasses, we dont have Access to a skill that 1 Shoots Astro. I got the Best Results when i tried double Facemelter and Mindflay ( i had 62k Light dmg in 2 Bolts).
- Spoiler:
- Spoiler:
|The ONE and Only. No Mindlfay//cataclysm/Thunderstone Deal with him quick !!
Athulua the Amazonian Bitch
|This can be done quick, switch on Double Facemelter and pwn her like a Boss, Eagle stance helps so much here:
|We need all 5 Damage sources here and this is how we do it:
| We are almost made to finish this Quest, equip double Facemelter, SSSU Chain Mail, some Rare Rings a Rare Amu and get -200% enemy lightning resistance and you are almost immortal down there, he should fall after 3-4 succesful hits
Diablo Clone Cant test, but i assume its the same as usual. Mindflay and Thunderstone are perfect for this huge Boss, either we kill him or the Area ends up to crowded. Hope for some res drops!
|Once you got good Resists Life and Defense ( After Sigs) you can just farm this Area, Devouring Cloud Totem, Apocalypse Rest
|This one really requires very high life and Defense, 50k Apocalypse and 120k Devouring Cloud and you can do it rather quick, ofc chooses the skill you like and practice a bit, you will succeed !
|I tried it with just 400k Defense (very easy to reach), but Mindflay is so godlike in there as its splash exactly covers the Spirits Range, Go in kill Dragon Upgrade
Ureh-Kingdom of Shadow
|Max out Poison Res, get good FHR and equip a shield, most POints into Vitality- just a survival check
|Devouring Cloud is great here. This + Apocalypse is all you need, train a bit !
Final Thoughts
I think after this Long Descriptions you Know what you have to do, mentioning the other Uberquests here would be pointless.
Casterclasses are not made to kill Purify Bosses and all other Ubers should be doable rather fast. This Barb just has it all,
but you need lots of Diffrent Items for him, so choose him and you wont regret.
For all questions ask Stoya or me via PM or just post in this Topic, NO GO ON OWNING
missing: Nothing, but stoya and i will add some more Videos !

Re: [v6d] ForeCast : A caster Barbarian
OMG MY NAME IS HERE i can't give cookie.
Really good gui,de i really enjoyed the way it looks like a story
Next part would be uberlevels,which sounds kinda fun with it .
Question, How much do you hit at lvl 120(with your actual gear) with apocalypse and powder keg. Because i saw you used that helm(sure you got lot of fire damage) and i was wondering if you used powder keg at all.
Also,if people doesn't like the poison way, is it viable to use Flash on fire immune? Would a fire/lightning build be viable, it would make room for another amu/glove? And with DAT casting speed flash would burst Possible to get lightning wall from something other than a staff? Saw stoya with a pretty good sorc,prolly good on a barb too but if you lose apocalypse well nevermind

Re: [v6d] ForeCast : A caster Barbarian
powder keg is a smaller nova than apocalypse and it has lower dmg ...so no i didnt use it. And flash is so small ranged ( and devouring cloud even has better dmg !).
When i entered Destruction my Apocalypse dmg was ~40k and my devouring Cloud dmg was ~100k.
Only Problem of this barb: the HUGE tradeoff between dmg and cast speed
(shamanka doubles cast speed but halfes dmg => help me to persuade marco to add an item for this barbarian to give it an endgame perspective )
Holy Paladin Winterstorm : 100k dmg per Bolt at 4 fpa castrate
Barb: 80k Apocalypse at 9fpa Castrate or 50k apocalypse at 5fpa
=> half dmg output

Did you know that Clay Shooting has been around since the early 1900s? We have the crafty Brits to thank for this game that has been described as "golf with a shotgun." In fact, England held the first ever British Open. Since the early 1900s, Sporting Clays has had a whirlwind of recognition. It has gained popularity all over the world. Dubai's crown prince just held a Sporting Clay Championship event this year.
So it comes as no surprise that NBC Sports Network recently taped the PSCA Tour. With this onset of popularity, a lot of my clients are ready and willing to be the next "Tiger Woods" of Sporting Clays. I make it a priority to attend as many events as I can and this year is no exception. I will be headed to the US Open in less than two weeks!
I am really excited to have the ability to travel there and meet all of the US's premiere Clay Shooters. The Championship will take place in Columbus, Kansas from June 3rd through the 9th. I have actually reserved a tented booth Wednesday through Saturday with special guest John Woolley. Look for us alongside the TEAM USA booth. I would love the chance to meet you and chat. Stop by and say hello!

HALLOW II, The Kindle Edition
Gregory V. Boulware, Esq.
"The Rails, Some Hemp, and A Hanging"
In France I was broke, poor, and penniless… Here in South Louisiana, I have become rich, powerful, and wholesome. I have more than a hundred acres of land manned by two-hundred and eighty-five of the best young and strong Black livestock in the territory.
A couple, maybe three of four birds chirped and sang in the distance. There could not have been any more than that, I'm sure. The Yankee soldiers outside reveled in their mastery while enjoying the aromatic scents of 'Hemp' and 'Moonshine.' There was no other way to get liquor other than someone making it themselves. There was no store-bought liquor to be had for miles in any direction. The company had its share of 'shiner's' on both sides of the war-torn fences. Their horses bayed and pranced in the cold damp yet dark beginning of the day's morn. My hanging tribunal was short and to the point. My foolish guilt could not be reversed, albeit, my hatred for these 'Blue-Coats' and their Black supporters surpasses my pain and sorrowful agony. I do long for the fragrance and joys of home… My dear sweet 'Abbey,' my darling wife and young'uns; my plantation and memories of France...
I was a vile individual who had every reason to believe that I could make and escape of paying the price for taking the life of an innocent soul."
The truth is he was not as completely innocent as some would have you think…
I laugh to think I was brought here by my father along with the family from the cold dark and dank alleyways of 'Edinburgh.' To think my life so bad that we had to move away to another town filled to the gullet with more cold dark and dank alleyways. Some call the eerie traverse-ways as bastions of hell's corridors. These causeways are the birth canals of the butchering 'Ripper.'
My course throughout has lead me astray due to the raptures and starving readiness of servitude. A short stay in 'Her Majesty's Royal Navy did me no good either. After cutting a man's throat from ear to ear, they tossed me in the bloody brig intent on making a date with...
"Howl Of An Angel"
He made no bones about his hatred for mankind. He vowed to kill or destroy every man, woman, and child of humanity – "all of them by any means necessary!"
While he usually or never has a direct physical contact with the masses, others are at the behest of his directives and desire.
…The weary rain soaked man stumbled upon the pathway to the door of the keep. He pounded upon the over-sized oaken doors with a weak and fumbled attempt. It was cold and dark. The heavy icy rain pounded down on the weary traveler to no end. He was sick. He needed shelter and warmth…now!
"Bowery Of The Crimson Frock and Flesh"
Would you not agree…?
The mentality of the analytical mind is usually in and of itself susceptible to analysis. Some people only appreciate them only for the resulting effectiveness. Among other things, we've come to know that they are always, when inordinately possessed by the possessor, the source of great enjoyment. Just like the strongman of a bodybuilder who tends to show off his muscles with feats of strength. Dis-tangling the tangled and puzzling webs of deception delights in exercises of gray cell exertion; To this type of personality, pleasure is derived from the most trivial of occupations that employ their particular talents.
By complete and utter observation, this opportunity allows the portrayal of the higher powers of the reflective intellect. Men and women of the highest order of intellect have been known to take an...
"One day men will look back and say, I gave birth to the twentieth century"
"When There's No More Room In Hell"
That part of the Wissahickon Creek was the best spot to watch the wild ducks, geese, and other natural wildlife. It was beautiful…so picturesque and serene.
Sometimes, we would use the entranceway off 'Bells Mill Road' into the parking area from Henry Ave. / Ridge Pike in Roxborough or from Chestnut Hill via Germantown Avenue. The fresh water stream was always a pleasure to splash around in or a simple wade in the beautiful cool water would be sufficient.
The fish were always jumping while anglers donned their prize gear in their pursuit. Usually it was the fish that enjoyed the last laugh.
The pedestrians and equestrians reveled in the park's courses of pathways and trails throughout the region. Another favored entranceway into the grotto like valley was Mount Airy's Cherokee Lane from Allens Lane near the Lincoln Drive. The wondrous beauty and mystery of Philly's Fairmount Park was simply adored by all and who resided and those who visited. But just as much as it is alluring it was also a most deadly place as well.
My name is Salestian Michaels. I'm currently employed by the 'Philadelphia Sunny Globe Newspaper Organization and International News Network.' I was born and raised in South Philly, the heart and soul of 'Mafiosi Life.' Angel Brondidi and Nick the Needle ran it all when they weren't at odds with one another.
I was there when Captain Willis Samuel and National Forestry Service Ranger Commander Gerald Glenn confronted and eradicated the monster beast in the park. I didn't like Glenn very much, although I admired him. He was damn good at what he did. It was his woman that I liked…
A regatta often includes social and promotional activities which surround the racing event, and except in the case of boat type (or "class") championships, is usually named for the town or venue where the event takes place.
The April Spring brought about practices for the season's upcoming round of the Regatta races, the river was swarming with sculls and other watercraft.
The police were called to a home on Ridge Avenue near 33rd and Dauphin Streets. The middle-aged woman complained that her mid-sized German Sheppard mix went missing.
"During our daily walk in the park, I usually let him run across the field. He'll usually chase a squirrel of two, a rabbit, or he'll check out what's moving in the bushes. Then he'd turn and comeback with his tail wagging and a joyful looking pant. You know, like he's having a real good time doing his thing. Well, this one time, I turned my head for a few moments while sitting on the bench. I may have nodded off for a couple of minutes, when I felt a lil' chilly. I called for 'Chauncey.' I never had to do that before. He'd always be here waitin' to go home. This time, he wasn't. He didn't answer my call. He was nowhere to be seen.
"The Catharsis Table"
And so death walked in the front door, ravaged the deck, and out the back. The curse of the beautiful but wicked womb beckoned unto the semen of the young at heart.
The neighborhood history records those old dwellings to have been the servant's quarters to the households of mansions and large houses on nearby 'Walnut Lane.'
The old domains were said to be the suburban houses of doctors, lawyers, and other so-called professionals who practiced and prospered in "Olde City Philadelphia,' just down-wind via the "Great Road."
Today, the quarters are not far removed from its former occupants. The current owner's income consists of approximately below poverty level designations.
A few of the regulars do enjoy a joint or two with their order of a shot and a brew. They bring their own weed although a simple telephone call could provide delivery service. She didn't mind much when we lit up. She never failed to grace the table with her rendition of reefer's effect on her.
"I didn't think anybody could smell it on me – I didn't even drink that much!"
The kids on the bus caught wind of it first. They laughed and talked about the funny-looking old black man. They laughed at the way his haggard apparel hung on him.
"Why was he wearing three layers of shirts under his soiled smelly and heavy overcoat?" He was saddled with a scraggly beard and unwashed face – he was always totting a disheveled appearance while believing he looked okay as well as being comfortable and presentable - he sure as **** did not.
The telephone rang at Gerry's house on Cosgrove Street. Someone had been shot. It was someone that we all knew. She was shot by her boyfriend and bedfellow with that long-assed Wyatt Earp looking magnum we'd seen him play with on more than one occasion. The local television news merely touched upon the tragedy. However, the neighborhood of East Germantown was all a buzz over the shooting fandango. I had just seen the man when he blew past me on Walnut Lane on a late Friday afternoon, in his beat up ole sun-baked dull white and gutted ford passenger van. It was equipped with a CB radio. I know this because he used to talk back and forth over the air on it with me on mine.
"Yo G'Man…I'll see you when I get back. I'm on my way to pick up some money!"
"Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opius of the people"
The man with the heart problem was stabbed. Everyone thought the man would surely die. That is, everyone except Dr. Dan. It was found that the man was still bleeding internally. Dr. Dan opened the wound and found that the man had been stabbed in the heart. There was a hole in the man's heart that was causing the bleeding. Dr. Dan decided to try to save him. He operated...
While she was pregnant, old people of the village warned him. They told him to "stop killing the bush animals. If you continue to do so, you will kill the baby...
"Ha! Look at this 'Baby,' standing here and walking all at the same time He is born!" The people all exclaimed with embarrassment. "Heigh! I've never seen a woman give birth to such a terrible baby as this one!" screamed the suffering woman.
And when he took the soap and sponge and washed from himself all the blood and goo away from his body, he wrapped himself in an article of clothing owned by his mother. He then sat upright atop a high stool and looked at..."

"My Name is Legion: For We Are Many!"
~ Is this a refusal of Heavenly Knowledge and Wisdom, Refusing The Word of God? ~
It Is Written:
"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee that thou shalt be no priest to me; seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy Elohim, and I will also forget thy children."
Obviously, to host this large event on a global scale, massive expenditures of resources; human capital, real estate, and dollars; denizens of the county and borough(s) have dreaded this extraordinary move for a long time coming. The masses of this city simply haven't been the type to embrace such a maddening crowd, particularly those residing closely around the Art Museum and Center City areas like 'Fairmount,' the West Philly area near 52nd Street and City Avenue, and all along the Papal Travel Route.
For the love of 'The Phillies,' 'The Eagles,' 'The Sixers,' 'Cheese-Steaks,' and 'Hoagies,' this city is one of the poorest major metros in the country. Hospitality afficianados and city officials acted as though the hotels were being maxed out – no empty beds – sold out! It didn't happen. Special transportation passes were expected to be all sold out while hundreds remained available for sale. Schools, Official offices, and City Services were closed. Philly's residents packed and left town in droves because of this massive influx of bodies from across the land and around the globe.
We carefully secure our houses with bolts and locks to protect our property and our lives from evil men; but we seldom think of the evil angels who are constantly seeking access to us, and against whose attacks we have, in our own strength, no...

The Company of the Gods rejoiced, rejoiced, at the coming of Horus, the son of Osiris, whose heart was firm, the triumphant, the son of Isis, the heir of Osiris."
She uttered the spell with the magical power of her mouth. Her tongue was perfect, and it never halted at a word. Beneficent in command and word was Isis, the woman of magical spells, the advocate of her brother.
Thou art the Soul of Ra, his own body, and hast thy place of rest in Henensu (Herakleopolis). Thou art the beneficent one, and art praised in Nart. Thou makest thy soul to be raised up. Thou art the Lord of the Great House in Khemenu (Hermopolis). Thou art the mighty one of victories in Shas-hetep, the Lord of eternity, the Governor of Abydos.
Thou didst stand up and smite thine enemy, and set thy fear in thine adversary. Thou dost bring the boundaries of the mountains. Thy heart is fixed, thy legs are set firm.

Frontal and rear
First of all, this young man can wear some briefs. He's a guest in his teacher's home when he rises from his bed, clad only in some briefs, and walks to the door, pulling at the fabric that has partially ridden up his crack. Very nice. The teacher comes into the bedroom and the two wind up in the sack, with Cabello's buttocks nicely captured thrusting up and down atop her. Later, he's lying on his back and his flacid, uncut penis is shown a couple of times, in the lower left-hand side of the screen, resting in a nest of curly black hair. The handsome actor also has nice hairy legs. Later in this Spanish suspense film, Cabello is shown from a side view, having sex with the woman, taking her from behind.

I made some tights!! Tights!
The pattern is Marilla Walker's fabulous Alice Tights/Leggings pattern. The pattern has three options; view A is for a two piece leg with a heel turn piece, view B is for a one piece leg and view C is for leggings. She has also made socks using the pattern - amazing!
For both my pairs of tights I made view B, being very lazy I didn't want to do more cutting than necessary and after making and wearing my first pair for a whole day and finding them extremely comfortable, I decided to do the same for my second pair. They are so quick to make up, the second pair took me 30 minutes in total including cutting and getting my machines out.
Marilla has provided a lot of information on the right fabric choices on her blog and in the instructions but she was actually kind enough to send me the fabric for both these pairs, lovely lady that she is! The colours have come up really badly here, probably due to my choice of wall, but the first pair is a really lovely coral colour which coordinates perfectly with my Jenna cardigan. This fabric is slightly thicker than the mustard ones with a textured surface.
The second pair are actually mustard (Marilla has made an identical pair here). I didn't actually remove any length although Marilla suggested it for extra stretchy fabrics. So far they are fine but if they stretch out at all I will adjust them slightly using Marilla's suggested method for altering bough tights.
I am in love with my new tights, and can see this could get very addictive! I was in need of new tights at the moment, all mine are full of holes so I have plans to replace them slowly with home made ones. I have just ordered some stretch lace off eBay for my next pair!

For those of you who don't know me..........that is a VERY strange thing! I am what you would call a "social butterfly". I love hustle and bustle, chatting with friends, and even some complete strangers from time to time. I love facebook, text messages, emails, phone calls, going out for coffee, hanging out and having dinner, you name something that has to do with people and I usually will make time to be there!
Knowing this about me, it would seem strange if I told you I only have been checking my Facebook twice a day or so.......I rarely check my email, and my inbox has been pretty empty lately. This is to do with my longing to be "present" in my own life. Not just a peripheral character.
I can tell you what I have been doing instead...........I have just been (quiet) still and calm. I have been reading..... my bible, magazines, a great book, many blog sites of great women of faith,spending time with my children, shopping with my Mom........AND I have been MOURNING over who I used to be.............. I lost her somewhere............between raising kids, paying bills, leaving our church, football, cheerleading, illness and injuries, arguments that were pointless with judgmental people, and absolute heartbreaking tragedy............I lost "me".
I lost the "me" who loved to sing, dance, laugh, worship..........the "me" who would often burst into tears over the beauty of nature, new life, new Christians..............the "me" who had passion for the gospel, loved fellowship with believers, the "me" who loved to create beauty, who enjoyed making my house a HOME......... and the "me" who prayed............without ceasing...............who talked to God day and night, in good and bad......................
I am desperately trying to get that "me" back...........it has been years of layers, of dirt and grime, of anger and bitterness, of disappointment and sorrow, of betrayals and loss, to get me to where I am now...........and some how, it "crept" up on me.
It had to...........you don't just go from daily fellowship with God to silence over night and NOT notice...........it creeps in like that awful wild grapevine I fought for over ten years at our home in Elgin. You cut it back and everything looks beautiful. The trees stretch out their limbs, take in the sunlight, and everything is right in the world. But the truth is......all you did by cutting back the vines was make it stronger..........make it determined to prevail! If you leave it for even one season without keeping it in check..........it has crept back in, with a vengence!
So it is with our relationship with the world..........left unchecked............it creeps in and chokes out all our Joy......
So here I am..........trying to cut away all the vines...........so I can breathe...........and find "me" again..............I will not go down without a fight! I am working at my game plan daily, I fail often. But quitting is not an option.
I am trying to retreat into the arms of the Savior. So that he can rescue me from this awful place I am in..........this place where I don't even recognize myself anymore. I know you are all praying for me and I truly appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. The books below are two that I am currently working in daily to help write down my thoughts and prayers. They are simple, thought provoking,and reflective.
|Some tools for along the way.
|Helpful in making myself ask some difficult "me" questions.

A very natural-feeling image stacking mechanic on Sila, which succeeds in giving single images context within the project as a whole.

Turning both convention and layout on their head, this up-scroller from Spanish designer and illustrator Clim showcases some beautiful work.
Istanbul-based design studio F A A L is producing great work, and more recently their new portfolio site. Simple navigation, content indicators and imagery that works well with the overtone of the whole site. We're especially liking the meta example at the end.

This charming site for Nous Vous is a pleasure to explore by click or by key.

Such immaculate tailoring this season from Simon Spurr as usual. Such great jackets, such amazing jeans, every fit is just amazingly clean at the Spring 2011 show. This is a brand that is a favorite with Zac Efron and Nick Jonas and I'm sure they will be spotted in some of these pieces.
Simon Spurr also went for the color pink when it came to their denim as well. I wonder if this is a trend that will also be big on the streets. But like the others, there were tons of grays, whites, and blacks in this collection as well. Are you readers going to be rocking the head to toe white and pink denim this spring?

DENVER -- In the digital era, marketing for financial advisors has a new set of rules.
"The world has shifted from outbound to inbound marketing techniques," Craig Faulkner, founder of digital marketing firm FMG Suite, told the audience at Schwabs Impact conference here.
"Advisors still need to go out and meet people," he said. "But they also need people to want to come to them in the digital world."
Faulkner spoke Thursday at a conference session titled "Four Steps to Inbound Marketing Success: Leveraging Digital Media to Acquire Clients."
To bring prospects and clients inside the advisors' digital tent, advisors need to make sure that people can find them, learn about and from them, talk to them and trust them, Faulkner said.
Here are some of his suggestions for making it easy to be found by prospects:
*Leverage search engine optimization. Advisors should personalize and localize their websites as much as possible. "People want to see you, your staff, your city and your civic engagement," Faulkner said.
*Grow the email list organically. "Dont buy lists," Faulkner said. "You want people to come to you because they want to come to you. How do you get their email? Ask them!"
*Keep it simple. On questionnaire forms, only ask for a name and an email. People are turned off by requests for more information.
Meanwhile, content is king.
"Its all about good content," Faulkner said. "But the content has to be compelling, fresh, interesting, personal and constantly updated."
Here are ways to provide compelling content:
- Use videos whenever possible. Make sure that the videos are never longer than 90 seconds. "People have short attention spans, and they're watching more videos than ever through streaming services like Netflix," Faulkner said. "Studies have shown viewers stay on a site five to six times longer if they watch videos."
- Use information-rich and personal photos. "Avoid generic at all costs," Faulkner said. "Show the inside of your office and pictures of your events."
- Present a personal brand and tell a good story. "Identify your niche and your interests," Faulkner said. "Do you golf? Fly planes? Woodwork? Let people know, make it interesting, and you will generate interest from like-minded enthusiasts."
- Change content at least once a month. One-third should be original, and the rest should be outsourced, Faulkner suggested.
In addition, once advisors reach people, they need to engage with them.
Here are ways to do that:
- Make sure that the site is mobile-responsive. About half of all web traffic comes from mobile devices, according to Faulkner. Make sure that the firm's website adapts to the screens of mobile devices and doesn't look the same as it does on a computer.
- Social sharing is a must. Make sure that the site has icon buttons for major social-media sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter.
Finally, Faulkner said it is imperative that advisors develop trust.
He recommended getting conversations going on questionnaire forms and LinkedIn discussion groups.
"Advisors sometimes take for granted how much they know, Faulkner said.
"Remind people of your expertise," he said. "The more they see that, the more they will trust you. "

Watch Nick Young Just Say No To Drugs from Bad Influence Brandon Jennings (Video)
Here's a pro tip for all you social media enthusiasts out there: don't post videos of your friends doing drugs. Especially if your friends get payed millions of dollars to play sports for organizations that frown on doing drugs.
This pro tip is brought to you courtesy of The Game. He was partying at a club recently with Pistons point guard Brandon Jennings and Lakers shooting guard Nick Young, better know to some as Swaggy P. And, during the course of said partying, he filmed a shirtless Jennings offering Swaggy P a little white pill.
The internet believes quite firmly that this pill was Molly, the club drug that all the cool rappers and hard-living pro athletes are taking. In the video, Young appears to decline Jennings' offer, which was wise.
You see, the problem with Molly is that nobody ever really knows what's in it. Pedlars say it's "pure MDMA," which is the stuff in ecstasy, but in fact it's almost always some unknown mix of synthetic drugs that may or may not kill you. So really, if you're looking to have a good time at the club, you're better off not taking pharmacological recommendations from Tyga.
Of course, I'm sure the Pistons, Lakers, and NBA will be looking into this. And I'm sure we'll hear Jennings was just offering his friend an aspirin.

|Half Baths
|2,200 sq ft

|2 nights
Settled far out in the Tallgrass Prairie of the rolling Flint Hills, with wide and endless views in all directions from a private hilltop, the True Prairie Home stands up to its name. In all seasons the house is surrounded by the magnificent and unique sea of grass. More than half of the year, the grasslands present the black dots of roaming cattle, everywhere. In late March / early April, the winter grasses are burned, with the prairie fires and their black earth aftermath a sight to see—the more so when knowing the young grasses will sprout up immediately after and color the rejuvenated prairie in fabulous greens. From the house, the prairie opens up a large pasture to hikers, painters, photographers, and dreamers. On all four sides the house has inviting porches for lazy gazing, reading and, again, for dreaming away…
All rooms in the True Prairie Home, which was custom built by local craftsmen from native limestone blocks, have huge windows which frame the natural art of the prairie. Handmade walnut doors, cabinets, floors, and staircase, complement the extensive interior stonework. The ample wall space and soaring ceilings provide a backdrop for the truly great, original art collected by the owners. The style presents a tasteful blend of the old days with contemporary design. On the first floor the living area is centered around a beautiful twenty foot stone wall and fireplace; the kitchen is fully equipped with tasteful materials and modern appliances; and the rustic dining table seats eight. The master bedroom features an interior stone wall, a large adjoining bath, and French doors opening to the expansive porch. On the second floor, you will find another large bedroom, bath, and a spacious den; complete with Western art and a queen size leather sleeper sofa.
And everywhere you look, the setting will take your breath away and stay in your soul…
Although we are both now retired, we have had long careers; Jerry in the area of city planning and Deb in educational psychology. We now have more time to devote to our interests in history, design, and environmental preservation.
We first came to the Flint Hills about 20 years ago and, like most people, we were immediately mesmerized by it. Although we lived in Kansas City, we found we were being constantly drawn back to the prairie and Cottonwood Falls. After several years of weekend trips here, we realized we definitely needed a more permanent place in the Flint Hills to live. That realization began a long search lasting several years for an historic stone house to renovate. When this search did not result in any possibilities we decided to find the perfect site for its view of the land and build a home - but to construct it with an old stone exterior. We purchased an old stone barn for its beautiful stone and in 2006 the project began. Today we have our perfect getaway home for long or short stays, enjoyed by just ourselves or our friends, or by our five children and their friends. We have already enjoyed a family Thanksgiving here, celebrating with over 30 family members. Also, we have had one wonderful wedding here with the guests dancing far into the warm, star-filled summer night. Visitors have never forgotten their time here as it makes an indelible mark on their souls. Many have returned again and again for the raw beauty of the vistas in every direction, the serene quiet, and, of course, the spectacular sunsets.
Beautiful sunsets, vistas, and experiences with the prairie. Well kept and decorated home. If you're looking to get away from it all, this is the spot! We hope to return someday!
Home and property perfect for a getaway from the city.
We very much enjoyed our weekend here. The property offers a wonderful balance of gorgeous prairie views and the total peace and quiet we wanted while still offering modern conveniences inside. The home is positioned very well for beautiful sunset and sunrise viewing and we were fortunate to have such clear night skies that we saw more stars and constellations than we had in years. Although it was cold and VERY windy outside during our stay, the house felt solid enough that we hardly noticed how gusty it was when we were inside. Very tastefully decorated throughout with quality finishes and the owner was pleasant in all communications.
This was our second time staying here and loved it just as much as the first time. The house is clean, beautiful, and has everything you need.
The property is as advertised. The prairie surrounds the home and the design of the house is perfect with windows framing spectacular views on all sides of the house.
Everything you can possibly need is provided. The home is decorated beautifully and we left wanting more time.

The Gay Group of Bahia ("Grupo Gay da Bahia") is the oldest association for the defense of the human rights for homosexuals functioning in Brazil. Founded in 1980, the GGB was registered as a non-profit organization in 1983, and was declared a public service organization of the city of Salvador in 1987. It is a member of the International Lesbian and Gay Association, it forms part of the staff of the International Lesbian and Gay Human Rights Commission, the National Association of Black and White Men Together, and it is a "twin" of the RFSL of Stockholm. Since 1989, it has been a member of the Health Ministrys National Commission to Control AIDS, and since 1995 it has been one of the coordinators of the Secretariat of Human Rights of the Brazilian Association of Gays, Lesbians and Transvestites. The GGB was directly responsible for the foundation of several groups in defense of the human rights of homosexuals in other states of Brazil, and it provides a meeting space for the Lesbian Group of Bahia, the Association of Transvestites of Salvador, and the Anti-AIDS Center of Bahia , entities which are allied with yet independent from the GGB. In 1985, the GGB promoted the Third Encounter of the Brazilian Homosexual Movement and in 1994, the Sixth Encounter of Brazilian AIDS NGOs. The group publishes the GGB Bulletin two or three times a year, and has produced two dozen pamphlets and booklets about homosexuality and AIDS.
Objectives of the GGB
The GGB has three objectives:
Organization and Functioning of the GGB
The Gay Group of Bahia is coordinated by six non-salaried Directors, (President, Vice-president, Treasurer, and three Coordinators), elected for three years. Any citizen can become a member of the GGB, independent of sex, sexual orientation, race and ethnicity, religion, or political ideology: the GGB presently has 500 regular members.
The GGB has its own center, generously offered by one of the directors, located at Rua Frei Vicente, 24 Pelourinho ( ao lado do Teatro 18)Salvador. The space is made up of a three floors hause and hold a smael library, am archive and na office with a telephone, fax end computer. It houses the largest archive of newspapers, magazines, and other printed material on the history of homosexuality in Latin America. The center is open to the public during business hours.
Since its foundation, the GGB has held two weekly meetings, every Wednesday and Friday, from 8 to 10 p.m. These meetings are coordinated by the groups Board of Directors and are dedicated to the discussion of topics of interest to the gay community. Between 100 and 200 people visit the GGBs center every week, making the number of visitors during the groups 16 years of existence exceed 20,000.
The following subgroups form part of the GGB: the Quimbanda-Dudu Group of Black Gays of Bahia; the Gay Stamp Association of Brazil; the Brazilian Association of Parents and Friends of Homosexuals; the Center for Homosexual Studies.
Activities of the GGB
Since its foundation in 1980, the Gay Group of Bahia has achieved significant victories for the civil rights of lesbians, transvestites, transsexuals and gays. It published the first and most important book about "Lesbianism in Brazil" and various articles about the history of Luso-Brasilian "sodomites" persecuted by the Portuguese Inquisition. The GGB has organized hundreds of conferences, round tables and debates about homosexuality and AIDS in schools, universities and on radio and television programs throughtout the country and overseas. It led on a national campaign which deleted homosexuality from the list of sexual deviancies of the International Classification of Illnesses of the World Health Organization (1985), and was the author of seven motions against homophobia and in defense of people living with AIDS which were approved by leading Brazilian Scientific Associations. The GGB led the successful campaign to include the prohibition of discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation in 73 Municipal Statutes and 3 State Constitutions. It is an active member of the current campaign to legalize the Civil Union Contract between people of the same sex, and was recently invited to defend this campaign in the Parliament in Brasilia. It was the first NGO to promote AIDS prevention in Brazil (1982) and was the author of the first AIDS prevention handout in Braille for blind people, of the first booklet aimed at the prevention of AIDS in Candomble (an Afro-Brazilian cult) and of two dozen handouts, posters and booklets specifically about AIDS for gays, transvestites, hustlers, and sex professionals and for HIV-positive people and people living with AIDS. Since 1987, the GGB has distributed over 700,000 free condoms and has organized dozens of exhibitions of AIDS-prevention posters in public spaces. Every year the GGB commemorates Gay Pride and since 1988 it has organized public events on International AIDS Day. In its archive, the GGB has the largest collection in the world documenting assassinations of homosexuals: between 1980 and 1998, over 1600 gays, lesbians and transvestites were killed in Brazil, (an average of one every four days), victims of homophobia. In 1995, the president of the GGB received the Felipe de Souza Prize, from the IGLHRC, the most important honor of its kind in the world.
Profile of the Members of the GGB
The GGB is located in Salvador (2.5 million inhabitants), capital of the State of Bahia (10 million), in the Northeast region of Brazil (160 million). Salvador was the first colonial capital, and it is the city in which Afro-Brazilian culture is the strongest. Blacks and mestizos make up 70% of the population. This is one of the poorest regions of Brazil, with a minimum salary of approximately US$100, and an extremely high rate of unemployment and infant mortality. Urban violence is reflected in the frequent public lynchings (one a month!) and in the widespread crimes, many of which are committed by civil and military police.
The majority of the people who attend the GGB are Blacks and mestizos aged 15 to 25, gays and transvestites, bisexuals and youths in general, most of whom need work and who are members of poor families with whom they reside. Lesbians attend the meetings of the Lesbian Group of Bahia, every Thursday night. Studies reveal that homosexuals are the primary victims of prejudice and discrimination in Brazil, with a level of rejection of up to 80% of those polled. Despite the fact that homosexuals themselves estimate that they make up 10% of the national population, the percentage of out gays and lesbians is less than 5%, since there does not exist a "homosexual community" in Brazil like those that exist in the major cities of the First World. Here out gays generally have a low income level and a weak tradition of material support for organized groups. Currently, there exist in Brazil approximately 50 groups of gays, lesbians transvestites, and trasngender
Sources of Funding for the GGB
In its first ten years of existence, the GGB survived on small donations from national and foreign benefactors, with a budget of approximately US$1,000 per month. During the past 7 years, it obtained 6 international grants (total value of approximately US$35,000) from the following entities: Norwegian Human Rights Fund, Kimeta Society (Toronto), European Foundation for Human Rights and the Threshold Foundation (SF). From 1994-1996, it received approval from the Health Ministry/ World Bank for 4 AIDS-prevention projects, with a total value of US$100,000. In order to sustain the center and the regular activities , the GGB requires a minimum of US$18,000 per year (including the salaries of 3 coordinators, material expenses, and the production of educational material).
International support and financial collaboration are indispensable for the maintenance of the Gay Group of Bahia as one of the most dynamic NGOs of the Brazilian Homosexual Movement, considering the difficulty of obtaining local resources for the defense of the human rights of gays, lesbians and transvestites.

Here is the next build with the Takom King Tiger being the centerpiece of the diorama.
Work has commenced on the smaller subjects which will be strategically placed around the King Tiger and hopefully come together to make the overall story.
It's a balancing act to see what looks right and what doesn't. Some items may be excluded some smaller items may be included. Here is the current work so far.
The Miniart 170V saloon has been broken down in sub sections for ease of painting. Some minor work to do before I move onto other models.
