Steamroller 2013 Primer pt. 4 Scenario 4Posted: June 25, 2013 in Uncategorized
Tags: ammunition run, hordes, scenario, sr2013, steamroller, strategy, tactics, warmachine
Scenario 4, aka Ammunition Run, is another fairly common scenario at tourneys so it pays to spend a bit of practice time with it. Let's take a look at the this and plan our path to victory.
This is another Assault Scenario which typically means a mashup in the middle. In fact, there is just a single rectangle zone that is 6″x12″ in the dead center of the table. There are also 3 objectives in this scenario – a friendly objective to each player which is a bit off on the right flank and near the middle of the table (20″ from deployment table edge) as well as an objective in the middle of the table that is an enemy to both players.
As the tactical tip so helpfully informs us this "enemy" objective in the zone means that neither player can control the zone until it has been destroyed. Since I brought it up, let's take a look at the objectives next (all three are the same).
I made the card big because there is a lot of text on this one and my eyes are old.
Like all objectives in sr2013 they are models on large (50mm) bases. The other generally shared characteristics of objectives, are immobile so it cannot be knocked down or moved, is automatically hit in melee, cannot be engaged nor can it engage, immune to continuous effects, and cannot be damaged or targeted until the 2nd players 2nd turn. Again, those are not really unique to this scenario, just to all objectives so it is worth remembering.
As an ammo dump it is only fitting that if your caster dominates the objective (pop quiz: how close do we need the caster to be to the objective and how far must enemies be to dominate? *see below) that ranged weapons of friendly models within 2″ of the objective gain +1 RNG. I know that +1″ doesn't seem like a huge boon but ranges tend to be so short in this game that it can often mean the difference between being in charge range of an enemy or not. You shouldn't risk yourself going for it, but it can be a nice bonus and is certainly worth considering.
Speaking of risks, we note that this objective has the rule "Explosive". When the objective is destroyed models within 2″ (the same distance as those who were getting the bonus range) suffer a POW 12 magical damage roll and the Fire continuous effect. For those of you fortunate enough never to have seen the horror of a model set on fire before, let me tell you from first hand experience that it kills casters dead. In a nutshell, you test during the maintenance phase but only after your have dumped your focus to 0 if you are warcaster (you knew that happened, right?) On a 1 or a 2 it goes out, if not you take a pow 12 damage roll. Don't think you warlocks get off much better than casters – remember you don't leach fury until your control phase so if your beasts are maxed out you can't transfer to them and you still have to have a fury on yourself. It is a very high risk proposition and since in this particular scenario you can't get control points by dominating the friendly objective, unless you really think that 1″ will make the difference in the game, I would suggest you not dominate the objective. Dying from fire in a game you are otherwise winning is very frustrating. You don't even get control points for dominating the enemy objective so just destroy it (which is how you get the control points).
How hard is it to destroy you may ask? This particular objective is not too hard at all. It is armor 15 with 15 boxes. It will take some effort, but not a ton. Also, this is an objective you really want to destroy with ranged weapons since, with a few exceptions, the longest ranged melee weapons are reach weapons at 2″ which means that they take a pow 12 hit and get set on fire when destroying the objective. It might be worth it to sacrifice a model or two but make sure that decision is intentional, not an "oops, I just killed 5 of my own Iron Fang Pikemen" move.
So, how do we actually get control points and win this one (without fiery death of a caster)? Let's look at the rules.
You only get control points based on the objectives being destroyed if they are enemy objectives. The practical application of this is that generally you should try and take out the middle one first. You can always get the far enemy objective later and that gives you a control point that they can't make up by destroying yours. The exception to this is if their warlock/warcaster (or some other low or medium armor high value target) is within 2″ of the objective it might be worth it to try and blow it up to set them on fire (assuming they aren't immune).
The other two ways to get control points, of course, are by either controlling or dominating the zone. Remember you can't do this while the objective is there, so don't forget that, but also remember that it is fairly fragile and your opponent might waste an infantry model or two wrecking it and then dominating the zone, so don't count on it to be your linebacker.
You get 1 control point for controlling the zone and 2 control points for dominating the zone. Remember, the first to 5 control points wins. That means there can be an incredible 4 points gained on a single turn – destroy both enemy objectives and dominate the zone. That 4 point swing could put you up so far that your opponent has to scramble just to not lose immediately.
*Answer to the pop quiz "an objective is dominated if there is a warcaster/warlock within 2″ of an objective that an opponent does not contest (any enemy models within 2" of an objective contest it). But you knew that, of course. Give yourself a gold star.
Steamroller 2013 Primer pt 3 Scenario 3Posted: June 12, 2013 in sr2013, tactics
Tags: sr2013, tactics, tournament, tourney
We are looking at one of the classic sr2013 scenarios today – Close Quarters. Close quarters is a a staple scenario for tournament play and is a great scenario for pickup games against a new opponent. It doesn't require any zones nor does it have interactable objectives – just two 40mm flags.
Close Quarters is one of only two scenarios that have neither zones nor objectives. The table setup for this one looks like this:
As mentioned in the previous post on the Supply and Demand scenario one of the first things you want to look at when you see a scenario are the scenario win conditions. In a 2 (or more) caster tourney, the win conditions will often inform your choice of caster almost as much as your opponent's force.
Look for things like hills, walls, forests, and other defensive options within 4″ of a flag (since that is the range to contest). Also you might want to look at the approach to the flags – if you are playing melee heavy with few pathfinder options you might prefer to take the clearer side to get you across the table quicker since you know you aren't going to have to go much further than the center line for most games. Conversely, if you are a shooting force you might want to look at fire lanes and where you want to end up on turn 2 in order to give you maximum coverage. As always, remember that the player going second will have the first opportunity to score the flags and plan accordingly.
Let's look at the specific rules for this scenario now:
Like the previous scenario this one also has the Kill Box artifice. Basically, this means if you end your turn with your caster completely within 14″ of ANY table edge that your opponent immediately gets 2 Control Points. Sometimes it can be worth it to give up 2 points to save your caster, but make sure if you do that it is a conscious decision and not a game changing accident. It is also worth noting that, unlike CPs gained via control or domination of flags/objectives that Kill Box is only scored once per round.
This scenario uses "flags". Let's take a look at what the means in sr2013:
Flag (40 mm base): All flags are models with the following qualities: Incorporeal, stationary, immune to all game effects. They do not activate and cannot be targeted, damaged, moved, placed, or removed from play.
A player controls a flag if he owns one or more models that are not immobile, fleeing, wild, or inert B2B with a flag that an opponent does not contest. There are no additional requirements for solos, warjacks, or warbeasts.
If the model B2B with the flag is a member of a unit, the unit must contain 50% or more of its starting number (rounding up) and all those remaining models must also be within 4 ̋ of the flag.
So controlling a flag with a full unit can be problematic as the entire group must be within 4″ of the flag AND be at or above 50% of the starting size. Solos and small units are good choices for controlling a flag, but aren't typically great at clearing out contesting models which still having one in base to base with the flag. Ranged solos are a decent option for controlling once the area is cleared out as they will still be able to influence the game while scoring on a flag. Solos also tend to be kind of quick and you can often get a surprise control by running the solo to claim the flag if it the zone is cleared or just unmanned – keep that in mind as you are moving your solo on the flank – it is worth setting it up for a turn or two down the road. The down side of using a solo for this is that they tend to be much more fragile.
A warbeast or warjack is also a decent idea for controlling an enemy flag since they are usually a bit more resilient, but often your opponent will be able to see this coming and will direct more energy to killing a warbeast or warjack.
To dominate the flag a caster needs to be in base to base with it and no enemy models (other than other casters) within 4″. Since flags are models, another model cannot end their movement on it. This really helps mitigate the threat of assault from non-reach troopers since the number of models that can end up in melee with them is reduced by 40mm worth of space. The flag doesn't block LOS and is incorporeal so it doesn't do anything vs. shooting, and it also means that models can move completely through it and still attack you as long as your model doesn't leave their melee range before they move through it. This is an odd interaction of charging that is worth knowing. Once a charging model has its target in melee in must keep it in melee until the end of the charge. In a nutshell, what that means is since LOS is typically the front arc a model can only move until the middle of their base is at the point furthest from its initial charge. Models always move directly forward on a charge. If there isn't room to place their base in that location due to the flag the charge is likely a fail.
This scenario is a staple for a reason. It is a lot of fun to play and the combination of Kill Box, the ability to dominate one's own flag for control points, and the central-ish location of the 2 flags typically mean there will be a big mashup in the middle. This is one of the scenarios that it really pays to think of the long game in. Once you get the number of models down dominating the zone gets pretty powerful and since enemy casters are unable to contest and it is possible to score on both flags getting an actual model advantage is extremely valuable.
As always, thanks for reading, I hope it has been useful, and feel free to add any other tips or corrections to the comments!
How does Khador win?Posted: February 1, 2013 in Uncategorized
Tags: khador, tactics, warcasters
So, I made a post over at the muse on minis forum about Khador casters to help me kind of quantify what their win conditions are and how they play and OrsusSmash had a FANTASTIC write up. It pretty much killed the thread by winning it so decisively that it reminded me of that scene in Old School where they are doing the debate. Anyway, I asked him for permission to reprint his post here in its entirety and he agreed so, enjoy, and feel free to comment. In honor of his namesake, here's a sweet pic of the Butcher of Khardov, Orsus Zoktavir and the article begins in earnest right below it.
Thanks again to OrsusSmash for this write up –
Khador as a faction is slanted towards attrition, typically via inequitable trades. Example: a handful of Battle Lusted Iron Fang Pikemen can kill just about any heavy in the game, and if you can leverage the whole unit they'll do a number on a colossal. That's a comparatively small investment, for a large gain on your part. "Trading up" is usually something Khador does well.
The flip side of the coin is demanding your opponent spend resources well above and beyond what they "should" need to in order to remove some of your models. One of the neo-classic examples is Kayazy Assassins: even without Iron Flesh, your opponent is probably going to have to throw more attacks at the unit to kill it than they'd like (with Iron Flesh it skews even harder.) That allows your unit to trade at a rate that other units normally wouldn't be capable of, or deal with things way outside of their weight class (even buffed infantry typically need 7-8's to hit, and again it gets much worse with Iron Flesh.)
Typically, "attrition" based Khador warcasters aren't "tanks" like some of the Trollblood 'locks are. They achieve attrition through tilting their infantry one way or the other (ultra killy or ultra hard to remove) or sometimes both at the same time (hello Irusk1!) and letting those parts of the army grind your opponent down to a position they can't maintain.
Enough preamble, lets talk 'casters!
Sorscha1: Attrition/Assassination. Renaissance girl right now. She herself is relatively easy to kill (usually DEF 18+, but usually zero focus camping,) but she enables her army to either tilt the numbers in your favor via mass Stationary/KD (through her spells and her feat) or sneak an assassination (via her feat and typically long ranged shooting that doesn't care about DEF 5.)
Vlad1: Aggression/Attrition. Vlad1 is one of the few 'casters that can run a decent size battlegroup in Khador, thanks to his feat giving you an alpha strike or at least matched threat with most enemy heavies. This allows him to play much more aggressively with the warjacks he brings, which is something most people don't see in Khador. The shining stars for him are his two big spells: Signs & Portents, and Blood of Kings. The former tilts the math of your entire army, putting you into a really good position offensively, and Blood of Kings gives him an endgame/survival tool that can be hard to deal with after attrition has taken it's toll. Vlad1 is one of our 'casters that is more likely to end games himself, but he's not really assassination; it's usually a situation where your opponent has to try to Hail Mary you off the table and fails, or it's a 'caster duel and Blood of Kings Vlad1 wins.
Butcher1: Attrition. Iron Flesh to tilt your army defensively, Fury and his feat to tilt your army hard offensively. Butcher1 makes a promise: I will kill anything you put in front of me. If your opponent can't deal with that (either via out threating you, or surviving your offense,) they're gonna have a bad time. Butcher1 is probably our best "tank" 'caster, because he hits like a ton of bricks, and can camp/buff himself up to very hard to kill levels. His threat range is really easy to understand and mitigate, but he still needs to be respected.
Irusk1: Attrition. Vying for our "best 'caster" spot, because he does his job extremely well. Every aspect of Irusk1's kit is tuned to give you the tools you need to grind your opponent's army into dust. He makes his infantry into unholy killing machines, turns their survivability on high with his feat and Iron Flesh (though there are counters to both, so don't get cocky!) and even has our best warjack support spell to slap on a Conquest backing all that up.
Sorscha2: Attrition. Also vying for "best 'caster," she does a lot of what Irusk1 does, but does it differently. She doesn't hit the peaks of damage that Irusk1 does, but her feat is still a huge damage multiplier (especially considering how hard Khador can hit at base.) She also supports our best infantry unit….the best (Winter Guard Infantry) which allows you to establish infantry dominance in a lot of matches very quickly. Sorscha2 also supports a Conquest well, between her bond's freezing effect, the extra focus, and Boundless Charge for threat. Also worth noting that Shatterstorm gives her RFP that she can dole out as necessary, which can be very valuable in some match ups.
Vlad2: Assassination/Attrition. One of my favorite 'casters. Vlad2 is still all about supporting his army, but in this form it's much more about turning a handful of models into relative stat gods and having them either cripple your opponent's army, or pick the enemy 'caster off. High risk, high reward, because his feat is random and sometimes you'll come up short on a big play, but a lot of fun because you can build your army for both possibilities at 50 points, and have flexibility for when you pop your feat. Doom Reavers are way too much fun with +3 to all stats.
Karchev: Attrition/Assassination. Karchev is all about making his battlegroup extremely mobile. I played him a lot in Mk. 1 with Iron Curtain abuse, but he's been harder to use in Mk. 2 so far. He has a strong assassination/attrition play that works precisely once on everyone (Karchev Tows warjacks up 10″, drops them off, they kill your 'caster or your heavies.) Once your opponents become more familiar with him, you need to be a lot more cagey. Difficult 'caster to use, since everyone is gunning to take down exactly what he is (low DEF, high ARM heavy) but fun when you get his game to "click." Don't use him against Cryx.
Old Witch: Attrition/Control. One of our precious few "control" 'casters. Old Witch is looking to control the board using her feat (one of the stronger control feats out there,) Murder of Crows (to block LoS/movement,) and existing terrain (Augury shenanigans or Weald Secret'ing our infantry.) She can tilt defense using the always popular Iron Flesh, and she can be pretty hard to pick off thanks to distance and Prowl (watch out for things that ignore Stealth!) Also threatens infantry with Scrapjack-Avatar of Slaugher sprees, though like Karchev's Tow move that's something that most people will walk into once. One thing to note about Old Witch: she's one of our 'casters that does zero to the army's damage output, so you need to build for enemy ARM in mind.
Butcher2: Attrition. Butcher2's theme list is what he's best known for. Can you kill all these Doom Reavers before I erase you? If not, I win. If so, I may still win because there's Conquest and Butcher2 behind all of them. That aside, Butcher2 is a very interesting 'caster. He still has the stats for a decent endgame run, but it's not as reliable because he doesn't have Iron Flesh or steady focus. He does have some very good offensive spells (i.e. he still has Fury, and he picked up Boundless Charge,) he supports a few warjacks well with his Conferred Rage, and his feat can be a huge attrition tool (allows you basically a second turn immediately after the first) or a sneaky assassination tool (cavalry solos have a 26″ non-linear threat under his feat, warjacks have 18″ if you can get Butcher2 to kill something.)
Zerkova: Attrition/Control/Pity. Zerkova is an oddball. Her feat is actually a strong control feat, and she has a few good spells on her card – Icy Grip is an okay debuff, Banishing Ward is situationally nice, Watcher is actually a pretty fun spell (though something your opponent can mitigate,) and she can snipe solos/UA leaders pretty well using Razor Wind – but her overall kit doesn't come together into anything particularly great. In theory, she's another "control" 'caster for Khador, but I've never felt particularly in control when using her. Winning with her does help your nerd peen though.
Irusk2: Attrition. Like most epics, he's a revision of his old style, with a new approach. Irusk2 retains the glory that is Battle Lust, picks up a good shooting buff in Fire For Effect, grabs two movement spells (Energizer and Tactical Supremacy,) and picks up an odd control-ish spell with Artifice of Deviation. His feat is also a huge "tempo" feat, as it hobbles most of your opponent's chances at offense, while allowing your army to recover and press the attack. Irusk1 tends to be safer and more consistent, but I find Irusk2's "lead from the front" style more fun to play.
Strakov: Attrition/Assassination. Strakov is another odd duck, but thankfully he turned out better than Zerkova. I've played a good bit of Strakov, and he's at least more active and effective than her. Strakov has "one good trick" similar to Karchev, in that you can catch a lot of people with Feat + Overrun + warjack to the face if they aren't ready for it. Once they've seen it, they'll take the necessary precautions. Unlike Karchev though, I think Strakov has more depth to fall back on. He has a very interesting spell in Sentry, Occultation to help with shooting match ups (not all of them, but better than nothing,) and Overrun can be used to give warjacks a turn-by-turn effective double speed bonus or movement shenanigans. Strakov's feat feels more designed for the mid-game, when the first lines have murdered each other and you're both struggling to get as much of your second line into action as possible, and when I've played the army with an eye on crushing on turn 3-4 (instead of fishing for a hard alpha) he's worked pretty well.
Harkevich: Attrition. Harkevich is a battlegroup support warcaster, and boasts (currently) the only ARM buff we can put on our warjacks. His feat plus Escort plus Field Marshal allows him to run his battlegroup very aggressively, and use it to get stuck in and start a scenario grind. Under no circumstances should you build for Broadsides, but it also isn't too hard to build an effective battlegroup that can happen to make use of that spell if you end up in a good situation for it. With Harkevich, start with a battlegroup that's going to push for melee, and build your army to support it (screening/anti-infantry infantry, some support solos, Mechaniks, etc.) He ends up having a very unique playstyle in Khador, and he's been very fun to use.
Vlad3: Aggression/Attrition?/Assassination. The NKoTB. Vlad3's deal is speed, and a different style of infantry buffing than previous versions. Dash is a huge enabler for your army, and it allows you to get to scenario zones/objectives very quickly. From there…I'm still figuring that out. Right now I've got a build that is more cavalry heavy, and it actually works decently well: you can use his feat to hit-and-fade, or hit and dig deeper into enemy lines. You also have the ever present threat of Vlad3 lawnmowering down enemy infantry (bonus if they're living so he can beast out on blood) and/or Side Stepping his way around/through their army to get the 'caster kill. Very fun, but also high risk/high reward.
Thoughts On… Lord Carver, BMMD esq. IIIPosted: October 12, 2011 in Uncategorized
Tags: carver, carver tactics, farrow, farrow tactics, hordes, lord carver bmmd, minions, privateer press, tactics, thoughts on
One of the really great benefits of the journeyman league from Privateer Press is that it forces the basics. I am fairly new to the Mark 2 version of the game but I did play for a while way back in Mark 1 so it isn't something that I felt compelled to do to learn the game. That being said, I really wanted to chance to slow grow this army and learn how to play it well.
One of the things I learned back in another life as a corporate trainer was how much more one learned when writing about a subject. I thought this would be a fun way to start putting down my in-game observations to share what I have learned and, hopefully, in writing them out learn a bit more. I was also curious how many times I could write "learn" in a sentence. And obviously, if any readers have anything to share that would be great 🙂
Since this is my first analysis it might be a bit rough and disjointed but hopefully later on it will be a bit better.
Lord Carver, The Bringer of Most Massive Destruction (esquire the third) is the warlock in the officially recommended battle box for the Thornfall Alliance.
Carver's stats are pretty decent but nothing great. His defense is a bit on the low side for a warlock but his armor is a tiny bit higher. He is faster than most of his army and with the reach on his weapon his threat range is shy of his control area which means you should never fail a charge unwillingly even with mobility (more on that later).
His weapons are both pretty impressive, however. His melee weapon, Hand of God (or HoG if you want to have fun with pork flavored puns), has a hefty power+strength of 15 and reach in addition to the standard magic that all casters have. This combined p+s is enough that he can reliably kill pretty much any warriors and most cavalry in the game without breaking a sweat. He'll hit a def. 14 on an average roll. The downside to his melee attack is that it is only a single attack. This combined with his mediocre fury stat of 6 means that he won't be able to go on a rampage and decimate units of warriors or even a heavy warjack/beast once you figure in the necessity of boosting to hit. If only he had thresher!
If he is in danger of being swamped it is probably better for him to shoot with his sawed-off scattergun. This gun is a non-magic 6″ spray. The power on it is a decent, but not amazing, 12 which means you should be able to deal with lighter warrior models as long as their def isn't too high. His rat is just okay. Where the gun gets really good is when you notice it has a rate of fire of 2. That is right, he can do 2 str 12 sprays per turn which can really clear out infantry that are trying to jam him. Additionally, if you need a bit extra stopping power, you can fire both barrels and trade that rate of fire for +4 to the damage result as a *attack.
Next up let's take a look at his spell list. He has 4 spells on his list and as a warlock can also use the animi of the war beasts in his battle group – I might mention the use of an animus, but they will be discussed in greater detail in my Thoughts On… that model.
Batten Down the Hatches – This spell will take up fully half of his fury and in most cases you will be casting it without batten an eye. See what I did there? Seriously, this spell increases the armor of models in your battlegroup (including Carver himself) at the cost of a loss to defense. Additionally it makes you immune to knockdown so I guess you might say that it gives you a better defense than you would have if you were knocked down. It isn't an auto-cast however. You need to be particularly aware of units in your opponents army that ignore these bonuses as in most cases they will only ignore the bonus but not the penalty. Also, bear in mind that war beasts have a decent defense and the farrow beasts have a decent armor to begin with. There might be times when the only threat to you is a bunch of infantry that are going to be doing dice -4 or -5 without the buff and only hitting on a 7. In that case, you might be better off taking a couple of minor hits and hopefully getting a couple of misses on you. I haven't actually run the math on this, by the way. If you are good at it, I would be curious what your results are. Immune to knockdown is absolutely brutal against those models whose feat is a knockdown effect. This also helps out against things like headbutts and throws. If you felt like it you could put up batten down the hatches and then have Brine double handed throw the warhog at something to knock it down. The war hog would still have to forfeit his movement but could then pound on whatever was knocked down. It is pretty risky though because you could go out of Carver's control area and lose the effect from Batten Down the Hatches. Overall it is a great spell though and one you will use a whole lot. It isn't an upkeep spell so you need to plan on paying the full cost every turn for it. Conversely, since it isn't an upkeep it can't be dispelled.
Mobility – Another great spell. As the name implies this spell greatly improves your mobility. Like Batten Down the Hatches Carver casts this spell on himself and it is not an upkeep. This is huge because that means you can stack the effects giving you both more resilient and faster war beasts which are always a good thing. Mobility increases the speed of battlegroup models as well as giving them pathfinder. Since it is a speed bonus it means that your run doubles the bonus rather than adding it straight at the end. Pathfinder is a beautiful thing as well since having our slow war beasts get stuck in terrain is painful. It also allows you to charge over linear obstacles or through forests meaning you can use them for a defense bonus to help offset the penalty from Batten Down the Hatches or give you the option of not casting it for a turn and trusting on a higher defense to protect you. Also it combines well with Rift in giving you more options in activation order as you don't have to worry about locking your own models down. It won't leave you much fury left over but flexibility and options are good.
Quagmire – This is a really interesting upkeep spell. It gives enemy models in base to base contact with the unit/model a defense modifier of -2 while also preventing them from moving other than to change facing. The obvious use is to prevent things from trampling over a unit of brigands or locking models in place for a turn since you can't usually move after doing your combat action. This can be very useful in scenario play for keeping a model out of a control zone. Also the -2 is what I call a "soft boost". What I mean by that is that it isn't quite as good on average as a normal boost but still helps break the curve. This soft boost also makes war beasts a good target. Anything that helps your war hog (or Carver himself in a pinch) get more hits can only be a good thing allowing you to save those forces for extra attacks. If Carver were a fury 7 caster I would advocate casting it on turn 1 and upkeeping it for the rest of the game. As it is, there are so many turns in which you will want to cast Batten Down the Hatches and Mobility you will probably be better off having that emergency transfer for whatever sneaky thing you missed that your opponent is about to do to you.
Rift – This is a decent power 8″ aoe spell. The aoe on it is 4″ which is pretty sweet on its own but it also remains in play through your opponents turn as rough terrain. If they are lacking on pathfinder this can be a huge inconvenience and go a long way to making sure that your hogs are the ones doing the charging. Bonegrinders give you an extra 2″ range helping to offset the short range of the spell. It is fairly expensive, but you can still use that and pathfinder and have that emergency fury I advocate which helps with some of the order of activation issues that could come up.
This brings us to his feat – "Hog Heaven". This feat gives all farrow models in his control area an dice of damage and Overtake. It is important to remember that it is only farrow models meaning that those other support solos like Gudrun the Wanderer and Saxon Orrick will not benefit from his feat. Also it is only while in his control area so it is possible to overtake out of his control area and lose the overtake on future attacks and the extra dice worth of damage. It is a pretty straight forward feat which I like to use pretty early in order to give myself an advantage on big models by taking out opponent jacks/beasts.
I made a mistake in dismissing him as a boring caster when I first read him over. Lord Carver, BMMD esq III can be played in a straightforward manner as a beat-stick but he also has some tools which enable you to play him a bit more patiently and tricky than it would seem at first glance especially by blocking off movement with rift and quagmire. A great thing to keep in mind is that he is a bandit king and play him appropriately. He is not going to stand up in melee to the likes of the Butcher but he has the shenanigans to ensure that he doesn't have to.

The chemistry between the lead pair is rocking. Rest of the cast Rajendra Prasad, Ashish Vidyarthi, Sayaji Shinder, Raja Ravindra and Jaya Prakash Reddy, Sudarshan are good in their roles.
Sekhar Chandra's music is pretty average. None of the songs are registered. Background score is passable. B. Rajasekhar's camera work is not bad. Editor MR Varma should have scissored more in the beginning. Production Values of AK Entertainments are okay.
Andhhagadu ios basically is a revenge story, It all about a soul's revenge. There were many movies made in this genre that involves revenge, thrilling scenes, and comedy. But 'Andhagadu' is altogether different one which sounds fresh. All credit goes to the director Veligonda Srinivas who dealt the story differently with twists.
The first half will be a just timepass film with the introduction of characters in the film, Raj Tarun – Hebah's love track and some entertainment. The main plot being in the second half where the spirit and its revenge comes to light. Director has dealt the second half in an interesting way. Comedy, thrill, suspense and Horror have executed properly. The director gave importance to entertainment during pre-climax and climax.

Is America's time almost up? Are we really sitting at one minute to midnight, on the prophetic watch?
Many men and women are flooding the phone lines of Block Talk Radio, AM/FM Radio, creating websites or writing comments on blogs, recording YouTube videos, and using about any means possible of social media, to warn people about the impending "doom" ahead for America.
Although I do believe that some may be false prophets, others seem to very credible. Many of these dreams and visions are eerily similar, and state that America will be judged for its abominations, with: tsunamis, volcanos, earthquakes on the New Madrid, Juan De Fuca/Cascadia Subduction Zone and San Andréas, meteors and more. Others have seen "Martial Law," FEMA Camps, foreign soldiers on American soil, terrorist attacks; the list goes on and on.
"If God doesn't punish America, He'll have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah."
–Ruth Graham
Numerous people, in mainstream Christian Literature and Media, have condemned America for the sinful nature it embraces. From Jonathan Cahn to Reverend Franklin Graham, these modern day "prophets" are shouting of the impending judgment due, to the once great nation of America.
Homosexuality and many other types of sexual perversions, run rampant in the land. Abortion is deemed a viable solution for an unwanted or inconvenient pregnancy. America's schoolchildren are being taught about unthinkable adult content, and the application of sexual acts and practices in public school classrooms, (under the guise of free speech and education); while they are strictly forbidden to carry a bible to school, let alone pray. The ten commandments have been taken down from almost every government building; even if they hold significant historical value, from a secular standpoint. Satanists now hold incantations in place of opening prayers at the start of our local government meetings. We as men and women of "Faith," have elected corrupted government officials, and just stand idly by, while they suck the last shred of morality out of our country, and create seemingly irreparable damage for many generations to come.
Our society has gone way past a "rapid speed of moral decay", we are at breakneck speed for social and moral extinction.
So when Ruth Graham said that, "If 'God' doesn't punish America, He'll have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah," she was right. If America doesn't turn from it's evil and wicked ways, we will suffer the same fate. Not that I want it to happen; but I understand that it is the consequences for the collective actions of America.
This concept should not be foreign to us. It is the very same thing that we would expect from our Justice System: A criminal commits a crime….. the criminal does the time. Why then would we expect the Holiest Judge in the universe, to NOT issue the same sentence???
Americans are calling upon Donald J. Trump, to be the country's "savior." Even if the Father were to bless us with a great President, we still have to be judged for America's prodigious mountain of sin.
The only thing that we can do, is a spiritual "about-face." We must hit our knees in fear, and humility, and ask for the Father's forgiveness. Even if we haven't done these things personally, we have stood by and let it happen.
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil, is that good men do nothing."
-Edmund Burke
Visions and Dreams
As I had stated earlier, there are so many people receiving dreams and visions about the judgment coming to the United States. Here is a short list of some of the dreams and visions given to prominent people, in the "Christian Community."
Perry Stone– Tsunami Dreams
See more at: http://endtimeheadlines.org/2016/05/perry-stone-receives-another-dream-of-massive-tsunami-coming-soon/
Shane Warren– A vision, that showed a literal dividing of America at the New Madrid, and an economical storm that completely devalues money.
John Kilpatrick– New Madrid Earthquake
David Wilkerson– Visions of earthquakes, droughts, and financial disasters
"Earthquakes coming to United States! The United States is going to experience in the future the most tragic earthquakes in its history. One day soon this nation will be reeling under the impact of the biggest news story of modern times. It will be coverage of the biggest most disastrous earthquake in history. It will cause widespread panic and fear, Without a doubt, it will become one of the most completely reported earthquake ever. Television networks will suspend all programming and carry all day coverage. Another earthquake , possibly in Japan may precede the one that I see coming here.
There is not the slightest doubt in my mind about this forthcoming massive earthquake in our continent. I am not at all convinced that this earthquake will take place in California. In fact, I believe it is going to take place where it is least expected. This terrible earthquake may happen in an area that is not known as an earthquake belt. It will be so high on the Richter scale that it will trigger two other major earthquakes."-David Wilkerson
And a warning from David Wilkerson, aired on the PTL Network in 1976:
"American food reserves will dwindle partially due to DROUGHT and FLOOD in this country. Wheat, rice and soybean reserves will be completely exhausted. The demand for corn, rice and wheat will not be met."-David Wilkerson
(credit: Patrick Dennis/The Advocate, via Associated Press)
Financial Disasters–
The nation's economy will collapse, and violence will erupt. Fires will consume our cities, and tanks will rumble through the streets. Pray that God would give our President the same spirit that Josiah had, to tremble at his Word. -David Wilkerson-1992
Some of these are already coming to pass!
Heidi Baker– Famine in America
These people are publicly ridiculed, for warning America of judgment to come, if it does not repent….and turn from it's wicked ways.
Here's just a few things we should be judged for.
Aborting our children:
America's abortions are no different, than the child sacrifices offered up to Molech, by the ancient peoples, in the Bible. Sacrificing children and abortion both shed innocent blood, and our Father sees this as a grievous offense.
21You shall not give any of your offspring to offer them to Molech, nor shall you profane the name of your God; I am the LORD.
Leviticus 18:21
Accepting Gay Marriage, Sexual Promiscuity, Pedophilia and Bestiality:
9Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who submit to nor perform homosexual acts,
1 Corinthians 6:9
22You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination. 23Also you shall not have intercourse with any animal to be defiled with it, nor shall any woman stand before an animal to mate with it; it is a perversion.
Leviticus 18:22-23
Arrogance, Gluttony, Laziness and Apathetic Attitudes for those in need:
An article on http://www.evenatthedoors.com/godsjudgment.html states: "According to this passage those cities [Sodom and Gomorrah] were proud, gluttonous, lazy, and uncaring towards the poor. The other reason God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah was because of the abomination of their homosexual activity"
49"Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had arrogance, abundant food and careless ease, but she did not help the poor and needy. 50"Thus they were haughty and committed abominations before Me. Therefore I removed them when I saw [it].
Ezekiel 16:49-50
Turning our backs on our Creator:
We have turned our back on the Father. We have taken prayer out of schools, removed the Ten Commandments and other "Christian" monuments from government buildings; all the while holding hands with Satanists (in the name of unity and love). America idolizes movie stars and other entertainers instead of honoring their Creator. Americans worship what their own hands have made………MONEY.
16"I will pronounce My judgments on them concerning all their wickedness, whereby they have forsaken Me and have offered sacrifices to other gods, and worshiped the works of their own hands.
Jeremiah 1:16
10For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. By craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.
1 Timothy 6:10
Progressively turning our backs on Israel:
If you follow the news on a regular basis, you will already know of the icy relations between American President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
If you, as an American, are ever unsure on who's side to be on, Israel or Palestine…. remember these passages…
In regards to Israel:
2And I will make you a great nation, And I will bless you, And make your name great; And so you shall be a blessing; 3And I will bless those who bless you, And the one who curses you I will curse. And in you all the families of the earth will be blessed."
Genesis 12:2-3
In regards to the Nations of the World:
2I will gather all the nations And bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat. Then I will enter into judgment with them there On behalf of My people and My inheritance, Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations; And they have divided up My land.
Joel 3:2
The Father has given us a stern warning of what will happen to those who curse or divide Israel……….. They will then be cursed or divided.
I wrote an article a few months back. It speaks of Ancient Babylon, and how it was destroyed in 539 BC. If America repeats any of Ancient Babylon's mistakes….We will fall the same exact way.
Judgment will be poured out on:
- Cascadia Subduction Zone: If big enough event happens, this could cause a massive tsunami, and cause a seismic chain reaction into the Juan De Fuca, San Andreas and other ancient fault lines in the area. This could also trigger volcanic activity at Mt. Hood, Mt. St. Helens, and Mt. Rainer.
- Yellowstone and Snake River Caldera: The ash cloud itself, would blanket a good majority of America, decimating everything for hundreds and hundreds of miles.
- New Madrid Seismic Zone: If a large enough earthquake hits this area, it could split the land wide open from the Gulf of Mexico, right up to Lake Michigan. The Mississippi would then be impassable, almost as if it were a sea. (Did I mention that there are (15) nuclear power plants along this area?)
All three of these geological areas, are of great concern to: geologists, scientists, and governments from around the world.
Just these three areas alone, show why people are dreaming of Earthquakes, Tsunami's, and Volcano Eruptions.
It only makes sense that these other things, that people have been given dreams and visions about, happen after the Natural Disaster Events:
- Financial Crisis
- Martial Law
- Famine
- FEMA Camps
- A surprise attack from the Russians and Chinese.
- Riots, violence, murders
So I have to ask the question…. Are all these things going to happen around the same time? I can't say for certain that I have the answer for that, but it does make sense.
If these events are all happening in rapid succession… then all of the dreams are true. Why would the Father give His children these vivid dreams, unless it was to warn them.
(Now is a really good time to go read the article on the Missouri Gravity Low, and how this geological feature connects the New Madrid, to the Yellowstone/Snake River Caulderas, to the Cascadia Subduction Zone)
My brothers, sisters, and fellow Americans…please understand,
America (as a collective whole), will pay for it's sins VERY SOON! Prepare now!
Get on your knees and pray to our Father.
For those still stuck in sin…QUIT FOOLING AROUND! The time is shorter than you know! Repent. Ask the Father for His forgiveness.
To those that have already been "called out" from the world and "set apart", you will have Yahuwah's (God's) protection! Get on your knees right now and PRAY. Don't just pray for America… pray for the peace of Israel. If Obama divides Israel, America will be divided as punishment!
In 2 Chronicles 7:14, we are promised something by the Father:
14and My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Mountain Biking in the Bent Creek Area - Asheville NC
Located just 20 minutes from downtown Asheville, Bent Creek is a popular place for locals to take after-dinner rides, but its easier trails are especially nice for people new to Mountain Biking as a sport or just new to riding in Asheville. It is in the Pisgah National Forest. Here are some trails to look for at Bent Creek:
1. Campground Connector (1 mile)
This easy ride on an old gravel road makes an excellent choice for first-time mountain bikers or families with small children. Connecting to several other trails in the area, the trail starts beside Lake Powhatan and the campground and winds along Bent Creek further into the Forest. Many longer rides in Bent Creek will make use of this trail as well.
2. Boyd Branch (1.5 mile loop)
Take the Campground Connector to Boyd Branch, an easy, 1 1/2 mile loop using a gravel road and a single-track trail. (Single-track means a trail wide enough for just one bike at a time). Throw in a small creek crossing and you've got a great easy loop any time of the year.
3. Pine Tree Loop (2 mile loop)
Ready to advance? Take the moderate Pine Tree Loop trail along Bent Creek and up into the hills and meadows along the lower slopes of Grassy Knob. The roots, rocks, and short climbs will challenge your skills and there are numerous opportunities to connect with other trails from here.
4. Green's Lick (2.5 mile trail, 8-10 mile loop)
This difficult, strangely named trail is accessible in a variety of ways. Try North Boundary Road for a long, rolling climb or take Little Hickory Top for a grueling ascent up to Green's Lick. For the shortest route, follow Laurel Branch road about 1.5 miles up the creek valley to the bottom. Once you're there, enjoy a fast, roller-coaster like trail (heading downhill) which was newly built with mountain bikers specifically in mind. Banked curves, technical steeps and creek crossings add spice and make this ride really nice!

About CDFG 首座临空国际免税城2020年建成
- About CDFG:
- China Duty Free Group Co., Ltd. (CDFG), established in 1984, is the only state-owned enterprise authorized by the State Council to operate duty free business across the country. In accordance with the State policies, CDFG exercises unified management of the national duty free industry (i.e. unified operation, unified purchasing, unified retail pricing and unified development of management regulations). After 30 years of rapid development, CDFG has become the duty-free operator with the widest duty-free type coverage and the most retail outlets in a single country, making numerous splendid achievements:
Working with over 200 name brand suppliers worldwide;
Over200retail stores
Covering30provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in China (including Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan) and Cambodia
types Global top 3duty-free
distributors Global top8duty-free
- In 2004, CDFG and China International Travel Service Limited (CITS) jointly set up CITS Group Corporation, which brings greater opportunities and platforms for CDFG.
- In response to the "Belt and Road Initiative" and the national "go-global" strategy for state-owned enterprises, by following international practices, CDFG has been actively exploring the overseas market by establishing subsidiaries in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan in succession, successfully opening Jinmen Offshore Duty-free Store, conducting foreign ship supply business in Taiwan, establishing cruise duty-free stores, establishing CDF (Cambodia) Co., Ltd and forming CDF-Lagardere (CDFL), a joint venture with Lagardere, thus leading the international and diversified operation of duty-free business.
- The year 2011 saw successful operation of CDFG's offshore duty free business in Hainan, which started a new chapter for China's duty free industry. In September 2014, Sanya International Shopping Complex built with a total investment of 5 billion RMB was opened, the world's largest duty-free commercial complex, which became another milestone in the history of China's duty-free industry. The opening of Sanya International Shopping Complex marks more powerful vitality of China's offshore duty-free policy and means CDFG has greatly improved its capabilities in large-scale investment promotion targeting name brands as well as operation and management of large-sized retail platforms, bringing China's duty-free industry to the next level. Over the past years, CDFG has been actively engaged in international competition, with new breakthroughs made in business development. On January 26, 2017, CDFG won the inbound duty-free concession at Kunming Airport, followed by acquisition of inbound duty-free concessions at Guangzhou Airport, Qingdao Airport, Nanjing Airport, Chengdu Airport and Urumqi Airport. On April 5, CDFL won the Hong Kong International Airport duty free liquor & tobacco concession through highly competitive bidding process.
- On June 30, CDFG and its majority-owned subsidiary Sunrise Duty Free (China) Co., Ltd. respectively became the first successful bidders for the T2 and T3 duty free concessions at Beijing Capital International Airport.
- Looking into the future, CDFG will keep integrating its resources, deepening its system reform, innovating its operation mechanism and lead China's duty free industry to become larger and stronger. CDFG will actively make progress into main business-related areas, so as to become a world-class duty free operator.
- Message from President:
- Founded in 1984, China Duty Free Group Co., Ltd. ("CDFG") has been operating for over 30 years and made significant progresses under the guidance of competent authorities with generous support from all walks of life and unremitting efforts of several generations of CDFG people. Here, I'd like to take this opportunity to extend on behalf of all CDFG people our sincerest gratitude to leaders at all levels, our partners both at home and abroad and friends from all walks of life for their care and support!
- With China's reform and opening up, the first duty free store in China was opened in 1979, more than 30 years later than the world's duty free industry. Despite this, CDFG has seized historic opportunities, leveraged the rapid growth of China's economy and tourism industry and carried out the strategies of business conglomeration, internationalization and professionalization. While setting up a nationwide duty free sales network, improving duty free services, improving the images of duty free stores as windows of Chinese cities to the outside world and bringing China's duty free industry more in line with international standards, CDFG has achieved its own transformation from a traditional duty free distributor to a retail operator and from dedication only to duty free business to engagement in many other areas related to travel retail. In doing so, CDFG has displayed its prominent role as an industry leader with a growing overall strength and influence both at home and abroad, becoming an indispensable force in China's tourism industry and a key player in the world's duty free industry.
- Three decades of exciting development has witnessed the growth of China's duty free industry, and more importantly, encouraged CDFG to compete in the international market with boldness and resolution, tempered the corporate character of always having the courage to go beyond with a team who are determined to accomplish our missions.
- Against the infinite space and time, thirty years is as transient as the flash of a meteor. However, previous accumulations will certainly be our invaluable wealth, which will enable us to compete, prevail and keep ascending greater heights in the future. We do believe that with the deepening of China's reform and opening-up and the sustained prosperity of the tourism industry, CDFG will turn a new chapter and embrace a glorious future!
- CDFG President
- Chen Guoqiang

Kate Carroll
Kate Carroll began working at PSG as an intern in the summer of 2012. She was hired as an editorial assistant upon the completion of her internship and was eventually promoted to copyeditor. While working as an editorial assistant, Kate completed her senior year at Emerson College; she graduated magna cum laude with a bachelor's degree in Writing, Literature & Publishing and a minor in Business Studies.
Through her internship with PSG, Kate was able to combine her acute sense of language with her enthusiasm for education. She has since gained experience in copyediting, proofing and researching by working on many of PSG's educational projects. In addition to her role as copyeditor, Kate also works with PSG's sales team on various marketing campaigns and sales initiatives, adding further types of experience to her skill set. An enthusiastic and committed worker, Kate is a welcome addition to PSG.
At Emerson, Kate worked as a copyeditor for Undergraduate Students for Publishing, an organization that publishes several student-created books each academic year. She also studied abroad through Emerson's international program and lived in a fourteenth century castle, Kasteel Well, in the Netherlands. There she worked on and was published in The Black Swan, Kasteel Well's literary magazine. While in Europe, she was able to travel to 12 different cities in 9 different countries, her favorites being London, Prague and Edinburgh, the Mecca for Harry Potter enthusiasts. Her love of literature can be summarized in a quote by J. K. Rowling: "Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic."
Before starting full time at PSG, Kate also worked at the Barnes & Noble at Emerson, where she flipped through and admired all the books she likes. Some of her favorites include Jess Walter's Beautiful Ruins, George R. R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire series and any of Jane Austen's novels.

Last night another commercial vessel was attacked and boarded by pirates. It happened not far from us and we overheard the conversation between a coalition warship and the motor vessel in question. For obvious reasons I am not saying which attack it was but I was able to record the second half of the conversation between the coalition warship and another warship in the area. I have written the first part of the conversation between the warship and pirated vessel from memory with Liz's help. It makes for interesting reading but please don't let it worry you. We are perfectly safe and currently in negotiations with the coast guard (who have big armed vessels!).
HMS Chatham: Big Brother Is Watching Us
Meet Big Brother, watching our every move since Egypt!
Oman: Additional
Sadly it is nigh on impossible to undertake the paperwork required to enter Oman without the use of an agent. We know of one yacht who attempted this and was so distraught at the heartache involved they eventually succumbed and employed an agent too. More frustratingly, however, is that there is only one agent we are aware of and much of the rally fell out with him for over-charging for his services.
Costing Oman And A Leg
Where the women are forced to wear black and their presence is absent from the streets. Welcome to Oman, a country that lives indoors in air conditioned buildings and drives around in air conditioned cars. Welcome to Oman, an expensive country boasting the most incredible beaches yet desperately lacking in soul. Read what I really think of this strange country…
Pirate Alley: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly
Collisions, fishing nets, narrow escapes, exhaustion, arguments and tantrums. And that was just the first day! Sailing in convoy with fourteen other boats through the most dangerous waters in the world is enough to turn any sane man into a quivering wreck, excuse the pun. For some of us more conscientious sailors the Pirate Alley convoy was a living hell!
Pirate Alley: Putting It In Perspective
Pirate Alley. Two words that strike fear into the armchair sailor, apprehension into those who actually sail it, and have the effect of filling my pants out of shear fear when that phrase is uttered. In this preamble I attempt to put some of these thoughts into context.
Dancing With Yemeni Fishermen
I am the first Englishman to dance with Yemeni fishermen. Actually I think the accolade I was awarded by the coastguard who gave me this video clip was that I was the first foreigner to lead a troupe of Yemeni fishermen in dance. Ever. Don't worry I'm not being serious, even though the coast guard was. I was quite touched that one of the coastguard-policemen came looking for me to lead me up to Colonel Mohamed's office to watch this clip. All ten policemen were huddled round a TV with a camera plugged in to it, watching this clip! The actual event was a leaving ceremony put on by Colonel Mohamed of Aden for the Vasco Da Gama rally and the fishermen were breaking out some traditional dance routines to a live band. I have to say they were excellent and the music was pretty cool too. Check out the video clip.
Crazy Place
Come with me to Crazy Place, a place like nothing you have ever witnessed before. Crazy Place is the name given to the qat market, the covered area where the locals come to buy their drug. It is an insane place. It is Crazy Place.
Letting The Qat Out The Bag
I found Yemen a difficult place to love when I first stepped ashore. With the beauty of the desolate marsas of Sudan and Eritrea behind us I found Aden an industrial mess. After spending some time there and traveling around, especially to Arab Town, I began to understand it a bit better. Some of the people we met were wonderful. But the problem I had with Yemen was qat.

I saw this assortment on items left on the pavement of a side road when I went to the shops earlier today. A small company moving premises perhaps? A lady walking next to me thought they might be having a sale...

Peterson has not been charged with Stacy's murder. But he is charged with the murder of his third wife, Kathleen Savio.
This hearsay hearing is about the murder case of Kathleen Savio, but the majority of the testimony Thursday was about Stacy Peterson and what may have happened to her the weekend she disappeared.
Morphey trusted and looked up to his stepbrother Drew Peterson until, Morphey says, he became scared to death of the former Bolingbrook cop. In a pre-trial hearsay hearing, 42-year-old Morphey detailed the conversations and interactions he had with Peterson the weekend that Stacy Peterson disappeared.
One day before Peterson's fourth wife was reported missing, Morphey testified that Peterson took him on a drive to a park. On the way, Morphey said, "Drew asked me, 'How much do you love me?' I said, 'I do'. He said, 'Enough to kill for me?' I said, 'I always assumed you killed Kathleen.' He said, 'I would never kill Kathleen. She was a good mother'."
"We've always said that from the beginning of this case that Mr. Morphey has very serious credibility issues. That's becoming apparent," said Joel Brodsky, Peterson attorney.
Brodsky says Morphey's admitted history of mental illness and alcohol problems do not make him a credible witness. Despite that, Morphey calmly testified that the day before Stacy went missing, Peterson told him she wanted a divorce and was kicking him out of their Bolingbrook home. Morphey said, "He told me he planned to do something to Stacy."
Morphey said both men discussed renting a storage unit where Peterson wanted to store an air airtight container for six months until he could dispose of it. The following night, the same night Stacy was reported missing, Morphey was inside Peterson's home. Morphey said Peterson walked out of his master bedroom and "he had a large barrel-like container...he had me grab an end, he grabbed the other end. It felt warm."
Morphey testified that Peterson drove him home and said, " 'This never happened.' I said, 'I will not tell a soul' ."
Under cross-examination, Morphey was asked why he never called 911 during that time, specifically on that Sunday, and Morphey answered that he was afraid Drew Peterson would shoot him because Drew always carried a weapon.
Morphey testified that he never saw what was inside that blue barrel, but based on the conversations he had with Peterson that Saturday and the events that took place Sunday, he is assuming that it was Stacy Peterson's body in the blue barrel.
Later in the afternoon, testimony turned back to Kathleen Savio. Peterson's oldest son, Eric, testified that he saw his dad physically abuse Savio in the early 1990s.

Does unlimited hosting exist? Understand why they are lying to you.
Many companies offer unlimited hosting for users. But is it really unlimited? In practice the story is different. Learn why they are lying to you.
In a tight market, some companies believe that everything is worth to win customers. This appealing thinking is part of any market, unfortunately. The consumer loses a lot.
To increase sales, some companies take advantage of costumers' lack of technical knowledge and delude them. That's what this article is warning. You are going to understand why there is no unlimited hosting.
Those pricing tables that compares web hosting plans hide the actual number of resources you can use.
All limitations are generally described in terms of use, that almost no one reads (do you know those huge text documents?).
Think about it: if your hosting plan were unlimited, you could create websites like YouTube, Facebook or Gmail. So would host thousands of websites and receive millions of simultaneous visits.
Imagine being able to do it all paying around $30 monthly?
Only in a dream!
To host unlimited websites and e-mail accounts, support millions of simultaneous visits and work correctly, it takes unlimited equipment.
These "unlimited" serves would use infinite internet bandwidth, consume unlimited power and infinite support resources.
How could you pay all this? Only with unlimited money.
That's why cheap signatures don't deliver true unlimited hosting.
When you know the real resources you can choose, you can plan your spending and create realistic expectations. This prevents bad surprises, frustration and loss with your host.
Such damage can be financial, because of sales lost with congested website or unexpected spending with another hosting plan. It can also damage your brand, since problems on the website make visitors angry.
A transparent hosting plan gives you accurate information for decision making.
Besides free hosting with cPanel and PHP, without advertising, freehosting.host offers plans tailored to your business.
See for yourself!

Peter Brown – Art & Designing a City – TEDxSMU2011
Architect Peter Brown works on big ideas for large and small projects. He is principal of Peter Brown Architects, a design and strategy firm that collaborates with clients to transform the way people work, live, learn, create, and enjoy.
At any given time you might find Peter in Florida, creating a middle school that moves as fast as students think. Or in Germany, designing a chair that moves with your body. In Dallas, he may be on his way to meet with a fashion retailer to discuss innovation and collaboration in the creative workplace.
If you live in Oak Cliff, your child could attend Hector Garcia Middle School where every classroom overlooks the entire city of Dallas. If you are an expat in Beijing, your kids likely attend a school that Peter has had a hand in creating. And if you happen to live in a residence designed by Peter, you'll enjoy waking up from a Sunday nap with soft sunlight dancing across the room.

This class presents the four most intricate automotive techniques to senior college students: 1) engine tune-up; 2) engine service and restore; three) automotive drive train; and 4) accessory programs. This formal instruction is combined with the students operating a small scale automotive repair facility, and the chance to participate in two nationally ranked contests for high school auto mechanic college students. We anticipated the Interrupted group to make some mistakes, however the results were truly dismal, particularly for many who think of themselves as multitaskers: throughout this first test, each interrupted groups answered appropriately 20 p.c less often than members of the management group. Job Corps is a second chance at high school and profession preparation for youth ages sixteen to 24. Jacksonville is an ideal place for this program in Florida and affords plenty of academic and private alternatives.
In those outdated days, the dealership was required to have a service middle that would change the oil, restore belts, exhausts, carbeurators, and such devices for you. We take delight in offering constant high quality with each automobile we element while all the time providing exceptional customer service. It would not matter when you have a dream car or a dirty automotive, we'll deal with your car as if it were considered one of our personal, ensuring it receives the best level of care with outcomes that exceed expectations.
Language makes us human. We use this language as a carriage in our interrogating and interacting with life and inside life. We use language to talk, sing, voice our opinions, disagreement, thoughts, intention communicate, write, and so forth, in our daily lives. It is a complicated impact one mediated by each particular person's psychological makeup, social standing, age, and the way the person makes use of the media.
Would you recommend SPD over Coventry in my case? If I do 4 years at Coventry I would be 29 by the time I graduate, but might the extra time to improve plus the location 12 months is likely to be advantageous over the two-year possibility at SPD? Thanks so much prematurely on your help. Its annual finances is estimated to be around $1.53 billion, which is the same as 103 billion INR. for that we've to do engneering or we will apply immediately… and in addition tell me where are these schools in INDIA…. becoz don't know much about them.

Crude steel production - process diagram
Crude steel production
Modern production lines in steelmaking ensure economic success
Today's steel industry with its modern blast furnaces for pig iron production and the different converter methods can make products with a consistently high quality at low cost.
Because there is a high degree of plant automation the reliability of the components is a critical factor for the economic efficiency of the companies.
Here, sensors play a special role. Whereas in the past they were only used for process control they today provide additional information about the plant condition.
Required maintenance and repair can be planned and prepared precisely. ifm sensors with diagnostic functions are used for condition-based maintenance and contribute to cost reduction.
Sensors from ifm help increase the reliability and uptime of the installations.
