From Dragonwake go to Isle of the Dead. Head to the Ritual of Death
PQ. There are four locations where two Deathwracked Servants spawn by a
column. These mobs will not attack you.. ever. They will die randomly,
and respawn randomly (Sometimes less than 5 seconds). They give loot (I
farmed at least 10 blues and countless buy cheap runescape gold greens) and coin and credit for a dark elf kill (I got two pips now) and exp.
Sure,
you can go there and kill them over and over, but to maximize this
exploit why not bot it? I have no autoit or programming experience so I
made a ghetto buy swtor credits
bot with my nostromo gamepad. The same could be duplicated exactly on
the g15 I imagine. Here is what I rigged up with my lack of programming
skill.
Position your character so that one is directly behind the
other. Set your mouse so that it is on a point where one mob overlaps
the buy runescape gold
other. Set up the gamepad to click left THEN right at a short interval
and loop it. I used .1 seconds. Set and loop a kill sequence, as caster I
just tossed a few DoT’s and a DD.
What happens. You kill the first, as he drops you right click and loot, it auto loots, when the first has d3 gold
dropped to the ground the second becomes available to be clicked on. It
left clicks, kills, then loots and continues to click until the first
respawns.
I left this going while at work, sleeping, doing other things etc…
Only problem I ran into was the server going down, and my bags getting full.
WARNING: The Tormented runescape money
Spirits wander and will kill you if you are in the wrong spot. The key
is to be in a spot close enough to loot and kill both mobs, but not too
close to be in a path of a spirit. If you set your kill macro to be
defensive enough you can take a spirit every once in a while (They
respawn slow).. but it causes problems as you gw2 gold
may click OFF them and they will kill you while you take down a
servant. Also, it can push the PQ along, if it goes into stage 2 you are
****ed. I recommend avoiding the Spirits, and it is not too difficult. I
have found 3 spots where I can kill both servants and not agro the
spirits. One is in the screenshot I have posted. Be careful one does not
wander across the path of your mouse pointer or you will click and pull
it. Also, make sure your loot screen does not interfere with you
clicker. If you leave this on for an extended period of time your bags
WILL get full and the loot screen won’t go away.
Exp starts really sucking at 38 (100exp a kill) but this is pretty much free exp until 39, and unlimited coin.

Guild Wars 2 guild wars 2 guide is a better game for all of the work that our community has put in.
Now that we’re just two months away from launch, we’ll spend our remaining time optimizing, polishing, and balancing the game, to ensure that we provide you with the best launch-day experience we possibly can.
To this end, I’m excited to announce that our next and final Beta Weekend Event is planned for July 20-22.
These are exciting times; we’re on the cusp of a new era in online roleplaying games, and we’re glad you’re on this journey with us.

Titles of the Court
Titles of the Court
When a sylvari joins the Nightmare Court, they are initiated in a ritual pageant designed to awaken the nightmare within their spirit. They spend time as a courtier, learning the ways of the Nightmare Court, acting as a servant to higher-ranking members, and studying ways to break free of the tablet’s influence. They may choose to serve under a more senior member of the Court, becoming a squire or an apprentice. Once they have earned the ability to spread nightmare on their d3 gold own, they become a knight.
It is a knight’s duty to spread fear and despair in the name of the Nightmare Court, creating traumatic memories and experiences that they hope will be taken into the Pale Tree and help to turn her—and her as-yet-unawakened children—away from the lessons of Ventari’s Tablet. To further enhance the fear they hope to create, they often take a title, and are called such during their time as a knight in the court. diablo 3 gold Such titles include Knight of Decay, Knight of Blades, Knight of Lies, or Knight of the Shattered Star. The highest ranks among the Nightmare Court are known as the Retinue. Knights who have done well are elevated into the Retinue by the Grand Duchess Faolain, who rewards them with rank and position. Baron, count, countess, duke, and duchess: all bear responsibility and a great deal of respect within the hierarchy of the court. Some knights elect to retain buy d3 gold the title they chose for themselves as well, becoming the Count of Blades or the Duchess of Frozen Snow.
All of these titles are chosen to foster the legend and myth of the Nightmare Court. The members choose to associate themselves with evil things, so even the sound of their names might trigger a response in other sylvari. They prefer to leave their victims alive—if they are sylvari—to further spread the stories of terror, as that only increases their hold within the gw2 gold Dream. In the end, most Nightmare Courtiers believe they are justified in their actions. Like Cadeyrn, their founder, they seek to free the Mother Tree from the tablet and the lessons forced upon the sylvari by the shadows of the past.
The Mother mourns her errant children, knowing that they can never return from the evil they have chosen. As new sylvari go forth into the world, she reminds them to hold fast to the hero’s path of honor, courage, chivalry and compassion even as they guild wars 2 gold strive for victory over the Elder Dragons. Truly, the sylvari fight not only for their own souls, but for the spirit of Tyria itself. While that battle will be hard-fought, the Pale Tree does not fear difficulty.
Hard ground makes stronger roots.
“…we gather in nightmare. We look to the darkest part of our spirits. The covetous hand, the lying heart, the knife that betrays a friend: we call upon these, and we see their power. For what are we, in the end, if not creatures of power? It will take strength buy wow gold to defeat the dragons, and strength does not come by turning away any weapon, no matter how vicious or how cruel. We will use them all.” Cadeyrn lounged on his throne with a careless, prideful slouch. A crown of golden vine glittered on his forehead as courtiers bowed and whispered before him, hanging on Cadeyrn’s every word, their eyes as lightless as the space between the stars.
“We, the sylvari, are the future. It is our time. We must leave behind the fears of awakening. Let go the stone that weighs us down. We were born to be more than this. We were born with a darkness in our Dream and in our heart that we could embrace…if only the Mother were not so afraid of the night. It is time to show her that her children are more than even she has dreamed we could be.
“If the sylvari are to survive, we must learn from the poison thorn and the stinging nettle, the vine that crushes the very sapling which holds it to the light. We will raise the nightmare. We will see Tyria remade in our image.
“We will grow until nightmare swallows the world.”

A WvW Weekend with a Wild-Eyed Dolyak
I gave the dolyak a hearty slap on the hind quarters. The keep
wouldn’t stand against another attack without these supplies. Time was
of the essence: there was only so long the warriors of Kodash could nip
at the heels of the invaders before they over extended and had to
retreat. The castle defences need repairing before the invaders can gain
the upper hand and push us back behind the walls.
I spent the entire weekend gallivanting around the Eternal Battlegrounds. A whole weekend laying siege to keeps, escorting lonely pack animals, defending ogre tribes and mercilessly hunting down the opposing team – all in the name of journalism, of course. It’s a lot to cram into one blog-post, so, without further ado:
Step one to getting to WvW was creating my character (well, step 0.1 was getting into the game – something I didn’t achieve until the early hours of Saturday morning). I thought: who is the baddest cat in the entire world? Clint. So I made Clint.
I asked myself, do I feel lucky? The answer being a resounding yes, I jumped into Tyria and swiftly scurried through the starter quest (a necessary PvE distraction – I wanted to get as little exp from PvE as possible before jumping to WvW). Once out of the tutorial I hit H, selected the PvP option at the bottom and whisked myself away to the Mists.
I climbed to the top of the rise, a little ahead of my shaggy companion, and buy d3 gold scanned the horizon. Not much further, I hoped. We’d held out as long as we could – charr alongside human and norn, but eventually we’d used the last of our supply and the gate began to creak. Fireball after fireball rained down on the bolted steel and wood. If the detachment from Stonemist hadn’t arrived when it did, we’d have been overrun. Shouting slurs from the battlements is all very well and good, but once the gate falls and the flood of steel, lightning bolts and arrow heads washes through the breach, even the most stalwart warrior’s bowels turn to water.
The Eternal Battlegrounds and Coloured Borderlands
After a comprehensive training section (it involved “go here – rez this person, well done you’re fully trained; get out there soldier!”) I hopped through the portal to the Eternal Battlegrounds. This central zone is where the three opposing servers really grind up against each other – a maze of lakes, hills, cliffs and mountains housing castles, keeps, camps and numerous NPC encounters to keep the gameplay varied. This zone differs from the outer zones in that all three servers start relatively close to each other, so players flood into the centre of the area and duke it out (it was common to come across three-way battles, which were utter chaos).
Guerrilla warfare is not your friend in this area. Traveling cheap diablo 3 gold as a group which is smaller than about twelve but larger than three makes you noticeable enough to be a target, but not intimidating enough to retreat from. This is definitely the zergs-paradise. Moving as an amorphous blob – absorbing and destroying almost everything it comes across, the zerg-train can roll over almost everything. I say almost – and I’ll come to that in a moment.
If you are a smaller group of bandits, hoping for some quick kills and easy targets – I’d head to the Borderlands. These are more open, allowing for smaller groups of savvy players to fall upon individual players and other weak targets. Each server has its own Borderlands to defend – but it isn’t in the average gamer’s attitude to hold out in a war of attrition when they could be off attacking a keep of their own. I generally encountered smaller groups of players and individuals exploring and gathering crafting ingredients. Moving as a fast-paced smaller group you can take supply camps and kill-off caravans with ease and then disappear into the ether just as quickly (I found diving into the nearest lake to be a very good way to lose any pursuers).
As we rounded the final rocky cliff-edge, the great cacophony of war washed over us – causing the dolyak to rear and kick. The crash of warhammers, swords and maces on stone, the constant swoosh and blast of fireballs, lightning diablo 3 gold bolts and ice shards crashing against bodies and castle walls alike and, most worryingly, the twang of ropes twisted and pulled taught, the explosion of rock against wood – a great engine of war swinging a ram as big as an ox. This is what I had feared; I had come too late
Siege Engines and Castle Upgrades
I mentioned that the zerg-train can roll pretty much anything in its path. One thing it can’t just roll over is castle walls. Even a group of 50 will struggle to break down a keep’s gate within 20 minutes through normal attacks alone – and by that time it is likely they would have been picked off by defenders on the walls and on the ground.
So, even the most accomplished of attackers should carry around some siege equipment. Siege engine blueprints can be purchased from the vendors in the main castle (and from siege-masters in keeps if you have bought one), they take about one hundred supply to build once placed on the ground. Out of all the pieces of equipment I encountered, the most effective was the ram – able to make short work of gates (doing about 8000 damage with each hit), it was also one of the cheapest. It did have one downside though – the oil barrels.
Defending players are able to buy keep upgrades from the Quartermaster to further strengthen their position in the keep. From what I saw, they were surprisingly cheap, and the most difficult part guild wars 2 gold was finding the supply to build them. The most effective defense, by a long way, was the oil barrel – suspended above the castle gate, it pours burning oil on the attackers below – meaning it was the perfect counter to an enemy ram. Whenever a zerg approached a gate it was always accompanied by shouts of “destroy the oil, n0000bz!” as wave after wave of attackers charged into the gate and promptly melted.
The lesson to learn from all this is that the single most important resource in WvW is supply. You use it to build siege engines, repair walls, build cannons and oil barrels, and strengthen walls and towers. You can wear down a keep by cutting off its supply, and you can hold out for a hell of a long time if you are defending a keep with a lot of it.
Pounding hooves on cobblestone pathways, the sound of the warhorn adding pace to our flight. The invaders were so engrossed in rapping on the door that they barely noticed one ranger and a dolyak approaching from the east. One more blast of the enchanted warhorn willed the great beast into a frenzy, he reared – letting out a mighty wail – before charging through the mass of bodies, sending chainmail-clad guardians and staff-wielding elementalists flying in all directions. I hung on for dear life as he stormed through the portal and tumbled across the courtyard in a cloud of dust and fury.
Final thoughts
I thoroughly enjoyed buy gw2 gold my weekend in WvW. I managed to get my human ranger to level 10, and my charr thief to level 6 – both solely through experience gained on the battlefield. I also amassed around 25 Badges of Honor through player kills. Frankly, it is difficult to class WvW as PvP – as the little player vs player you come across is usually a swift and overwhelming zerg descending on a lone player, but it is fun nonetheless. And the dynamic of capturing and protecting supply lines adds a really nice ebb and flow to the gameplay which means that momentum is everything. If you get a real good thing going, your whole server gets stat boosts – which can further cement your dominance on the battlefield.
Six months down the line I expect siege weapons and keep upgrades to be pretty prevalent: being so cheap. I hope also, that we get some strong and tactically-minded commanders to take charge of the unruly mobs which punctuated my time in The Mists. I also anticipate people working out that the /local chat channel is cross-server, not just for your team – but that particular piece of information might take a while to sink through.
During the beta, WvW was a glorious mess – just a great swirling mass of chaos and fire. I’m not sure what it might turn into once the game begins in earnest, but I loved every single second of the terribly bloody affair.
It took three mesmers to calm the mind of the frenzied dolyak. Most of the supply had been thrown from his packs when he flew into the yard, so the workers were already hurriedly using it to repair the gate and patch the walls. “Grab a box and get up here, we are almost ready!” I heard from atop the gatehouse – the guards on the walls beckoned to me – I dragged myself out of the dirt and grabbed some supply.
At the top of the wall, the extent of the invader’s army was spread out in front of me – warriors and guardians beneath the walls operating the ram, rangers, thieves, mesmers and necromancers behind the front line; hurling arrows, spells and throwing knives at the guards on the walls. With each swing of the ram, the entire wall shook. I stood at the edge of the battlements and gaped in horror and wonderment. The workers wrenched the supply from my grasp and hurried it over to the scaffold which hung above the main gate.
The men worked with admirable fury and intense precision, fashioning the supply into a great iron cauldron which instantly filled with boiling and bubbling oil conjured out of the air by the keep necromancer. The workers stood back and admired their creation. The wall shook from the impacts below. “What do you think of that?” one said, dusting off his hands.
I was still gaping when he shook me by the arm:
“We’re doomed” I said.
The worker turned to his creation and slowly pulled the lever, releasing the torrent of boiling oil “Oh ho, We’re just getting started“.
I spent the entire weekend gallivanting around the Eternal Battlegrounds. A whole weekend laying siege to keeps, escorting lonely pack animals, defending ogre tribes and mercilessly hunting down the opposing team – all in the name of journalism, of course. It’s a lot to cram into one blog-post, so, without further ado:

Once out of the tutorial I hit H, selected the PvP option at the bottom and whisked myself away to the Mists.
I climbed to the top of the rise, a little ahead of my shaggy companion, and buy d3 gold scanned the horizon. Not much further, I hoped. We’d held out as long as we could – charr alongside human and norn, but eventually we’d used the last of our supply and the gate began to creak. Fireball after fireball rained down on the bolted steel and wood. If the detachment from Stonemist hadn’t arrived when it did, we’d have been overrun. Shouting slurs from the battlements is all very well and good, but once the gate falls and the flood of steel, lightning bolts and arrow heads washes through the breach, even the most stalwart warrior’s bowels turn to water.
The Eternal Battlegrounds and Coloured Borderlands
After a comprehensive training section (it involved “go here – rez this person, well done you’re fully trained; get out there soldier!”) I hopped through the portal to the Eternal Battlegrounds. This central zone is where the three opposing servers really grind up against each other – a maze of lakes, hills, cliffs and mountains housing castles, keeps, camps and numerous NPC encounters to keep the gameplay varied. This zone differs from the outer zones in that all three servers start relatively close to each other, so players flood into the centre of the area and duke it out (it was common to come across three-way battles, which were utter chaos).
Guerrilla warfare is not your friend in this area. Traveling cheap diablo 3 gold as a group which is smaller than about twelve but larger than three makes you noticeable enough to be a target, but not intimidating enough to retreat from. This is definitely the zergs-paradise. Moving as an amorphous blob – absorbing and destroying almost everything it comes across, the zerg-train can roll over almost everything. I say almost – and I’ll come to that in a moment.
If you are a smaller group of bandits, hoping for some quick kills and easy targets – I’d head to the Borderlands. These are more open, allowing for smaller groups of savvy players to fall upon individual players and other weak targets. Each server has its own Borderlands to defend – but it isn’t in the average gamer’s attitude to hold out in a war of attrition when they could be off attacking a keep of their own. I generally encountered smaller groups of players and individuals exploring and gathering crafting ingredients. Moving as a fast-paced smaller group you can take supply camps and kill-off caravans with ease and then disappear into the ether just as quickly (I found diving into the nearest lake to be a very good way to lose any pursuers).
As we rounded the final rocky cliff-edge, the great cacophony of war washed over us – causing the dolyak to rear and kick. The crash of warhammers, swords and maces on stone, the constant swoosh and blast of fireballs, lightning diablo 3 gold bolts and ice shards crashing against bodies and castle walls alike and, most worryingly, the twang of ropes twisted and pulled taught, the explosion of rock against wood – a great engine of war swinging a ram as big as an ox. This is what I had feared; I had come too late
Siege Engines and Castle Upgrades
I mentioned that the zerg-train can roll pretty much anything in its path. One thing it can’t just roll over is castle walls. Even a group of 50 will struggle to break down a keep’s gate within 20 minutes through normal attacks alone – and by that time it is likely they would have been picked off by defenders on the walls and on the ground.
So, even the most accomplished of attackers should carry around some siege equipment. Siege engine blueprints can be purchased from the vendors in the main castle (and from siege-masters in keeps if you have bought one), they take about one hundred supply to build once placed on the ground. Out of all the pieces of equipment I encountered, the most effective was the ram – able to make short work of gates (doing about 8000 damage with each hit), it was also one of the cheapest. It did have one downside though – the oil barrels.
Defending players are able to buy keep upgrades from the Quartermaster to further strengthen their position in the keep. From what I saw, they were surprisingly cheap, and the most difficult part guild wars 2 gold was finding the supply to build them. The most effective defense, by a long way, was the oil barrel – suspended above the castle gate, it pours burning oil on the attackers below – meaning it was the perfect counter to an enemy ram. Whenever a zerg approached a gate it was always accompanied by shouts of “destroy the oil, n0000bz!” as wave after wave of attackers charged into the gate and promptly melted.
The lesson to learn from all this is that the single most important resource in WvW is supply. You use it to build siege engines, repair walls, build cannons and oil barrels, and strengthen walls and towers. You can wear down a keep by cutting off its supply, and you can hold out for a hell of a long time if you are defending a keep with a lot of it.
Pounding hooves on cobblestone pathways, the sound of the warhorn adding pace to our flight. The invaders were so engrossed in rapping on the door that they barely noticed one ranger and a dolyak approaching from the east. One more blast of the enchanted warhorn willed the great beast into a frenzy, he reared – letting out a mighty wail – before charging through the mass of bodies, sending chainmail-clad guardians and staff-wielding elementalists flying in all directions. I hung on for dear life as he stormed through the portal and tumbled across the courtyard in a cloud of dust and fury.
Final thoughts
I thoroughly enjoyed buy gw2 gold my weekend in WvW. I managed to get my human ranger to level 10, and my charr thief to level 6 – both solely through experience gained on the battlefield. I also amassed around 25 Badges of Honor through player kills. Frankly, it is difficult to class WvW as PvP – as the little player vs player you come across is usually a swift and overwhelming zerg descending on a lone player, but it is fun nonetheless. And the dynamic of capturing and protecting supply lines adds a really nice ebb and flow to the gameplay which means that momentum is everything. If you get a real good thing going, your whole server gets stat boosts – which can further cement your dominance on the battlefield.
Six months down the line I expect siege weapons and keep upgrades to be pretty prevalent: being so cheap. I hope also, that we get some strong and tactically-minded commanders to take charge of the unruly mobs which punctuated my time in The Mists. I also anticipate people working out that the /local chat channel is cross-server, not just for your team – but that particular piece of information might take a while to sink through.
During the beta, WvW was a glorious mess – just a great swirling mass of chaos and fire. I’m not sure what it might turn into once the game begins in earnest, but I loved every single second of the terribly bloody affair.
It took three mesmers to calm the mind of the frenzied dolyak. Most of the supply had been thrown from his packs when he flew into the yard, so the workers were already hurriedly using it to repair the gate and patch the walls. “Grab a box and get up here, we are almost ready!” I heard from atop the gatehouse – the guards on the walls beckoned to me – I dragged myself out of the dirt and grabbed some supply.
At the top of the wall, the extent of the invader’s army was spread out in front of me – warriors and guardians beneath the walls operating the ram, rangers, thieves, mesmers and necromancers behind the front line; hurling arrows, spells and throwing knives at the guards on the walls. With each swing of the ram, the entire wall shook. I stood at the edge of the battlements and gaped in horror and wonderment. The workers wrenched the supply from my grasp and hurried it over to the scaffold which hung above the main gate.
The men worked with admirable fury and intense precision, fashioning the supply into a great iron cauldron which instantly filled with boiling and bubbling oil conjured out of the air by the keep necromancer. The workers stood back and admired their creation. The wall shook from the impacts below. “What do you think of that?” one said, dusting off his hands.
I was still gaping when he shook me by the arm:
“We’re doomed” I said.
The worker turned to his creation and slowly pulled the lever, releasing the torrent of boiling oil “Oh ho, We’re just getting started“.

Latest Diablo 3 News: No PvP for you…
Blizzard Stated in their new post that PvP will not be available for release. In their own words:
“As we’re counting down the days until we’re ready to announce a release buy diablo 3 gold date for Diablo III, we’ve come to realize that the PvP game and systems aren’t yet living up to our standards. cheap d3 gold Today, we wanted to let you know that we’ve made the difficult decision to hold back the PvP Arena system and release it in a patch following diablo 3 gold the game’s launch. After a lot of consideration and discussion, we ultimately felt that delaying the whole game purely for PvP would just be punishing to everyone guild wars 2 gold who’s waiting to enjoy the campaign and core solo/co-op content, all of which is just about complete.”
Amazon has set the release date for April 17th, as well as appearances cheap guild wars 2 gold of that release dates in some other promotional material and stores around the world, so dropping the PvP aspect seems like a confirmation that Blizzard is trying hard to keep that release date.

D3 Witch Doctor Guide – Strengths
The primary strength of the Witch Doctor class is its raw damage output. The Soul Harvest ability allows you to literally double your damage and it can be kept up nearly 100% of the time. As a result, the Witch Doctor’s | diablo 3 gold fast delivery damage is off the charts by default.
In particular, the Witch Doctor deals excellent single-target damage. This is due to its Poison | buy cheap diablo 3 gold Dart ability. With the Splinters rune, this skill dishes out 180% weapon damage and has a mana cost so low you can cast it indefinitely. When you combine a practically | d3 gold free to use, high-damage skill with a huge self buff to damage, it is not surprising the Witch Doctor’s strength is single target damage output.
Another strength of the Witch Doctor is its pets and snares. Between gw2 gold these two things, it is not very often that the Witch Doctor actually gets hit by enemies. When you consider the large amount of Intelligence the Witch Doctor has increases its magic resistance significantly, it turns out the Witch Doctor guild wars 2 power leveling takes very little damage in general.
Finally, the Witch Doctor gets access to a lot of control abilities which will come in handy in PvP. It has an AoE fear, an AoE charm, and the Hex ability which causes nearby targets to be unable to act and take extra damage.
However, all classes have their weaknesses, including the Witch Doctor. In the next part of this Diablo 3 Witch Doctor guide, we are going to reveal the Witch Doctor’s weaknesses so you know exactly what pitfalls to avoid as a WD in D3.

SWTOR Guide – Jedi Sentinel Vs Jedi Guardian
Note: This is page 2 of the Jedi Knight Strategy Guide. For page 1, check out
Jedi Knight Guide Leveling the Jedi Sentinel Like a Pro Do you want your enemies
afraid of even just taking a glimpse at you? Or if you’d like to make them look
foolish when fighting up close with you, then the aggressive Jedi Sentinel that
dual wields two flashy lightsabers will definitely be your choice. With just a
quick glance at how Sentinel launches a massive attack at the enemies instantly
and ferociously would have already made it an appealing choice for most SWTOR
players. As always, approach the Jedi Knight trainer gw2 gold to gain your Dual Wield and
Centering abilities. You may then never have to worry about building Focus for
the Jedi Sentinel as a lot of its skills already supply enough Focus for you to
dance with your Sentinel. Once you’ve become a Sentinel at level 10, the
Defensive Forms ability will already enhance the Shii-Cho Form that reduces
damage taken, and at the same time providing you the ability to convert the
damage taken into building you Focus, allowing you to jump into combat without
any more worry. Click Here for the SWTOR Complete Mastery Strategy Guide Also,
guild wars 2 gold you will learn the
Zen ability – Which allows you to choose to consume Fury instead of Focus and
attack a second target as well as Zealous Strike which will help you build high
amount of Focus. So your rotation for these two abilities would be Slash above
Zealous Strike, into Blade Storm into Zen into Slash. I am sure you will find
this rotation useful even for the next 10+ levels you are going to enjoy
killing. A Little Guide for Jedi Guardian You as a Jedi Guardian will be holding
a single lightsaber and equipped with a shield generator. Remember to approach
the cheap gw2 gold Jedi Knight trainer
in order to receive your shield generator, learn the Blade Turning ability to
enhance your melee defense, and most importantly pick up the brand new heavy
armor to become a real Jedi Guardian. The heavy armor makes Jedi Guardian highly
endurable by boosting your strength and endurance stats while giving you the
ability to reduce damage taken for a short time. You may not see much change in
your abilities when first starting out as a Jedi Guardian, they are pretty
similar to those you have been using during the first 10 level like Force Leap,
Force Sweep, Slash, and Strikes buy gw2 gold etc., just use
Force Sweep as much as possible for AoE attacks and you will also gain a new
Strike called Sundering Strike to weaken the armor of targets and build Rage. As
the Jedi Guardian experience more quests and flashpoints; its tanking and DPS
abilities will greatly improve with new abilities such as Combat Focus – Which
instantly builds 6 Focus and is designed to combat with large mob, and Enure
(level 28) which can best be used in melee combat to dramatically increase your
health for 10 seconds. Powerful Crew Skills for the Jedi Knight Class Following
are two recommended pairs of Crafting Skills gw2 power leveling for
both Jedi Guardian and Sentinel Artifice – No matter If you would like to
enhance your Jedi Guardian’s shield generator or crafting a much more powerful
lightsabre(s), this skill just comes right to allow you to craft crystals, hilts
and enhancements gathered by using Archaeology and delivered by Treasure
Hunting. This is certainly a good option for both the Guardians who enjoy
crafting a some nice offhand items (Don’t forget to reward your great companion
Kira) and the Sentinels who would love to stand out with more “lightshows” along
the way. Synthweaving – I guess some of you already know what I am going to say
next. Yes, this skill allows you to create light to heavy armor (of course you
don’t want to waste your money for any armor other than the best one, so go
ahead for the heavy armor selection) all by yourself using the materials from
Archaeology where you mine out all the crystals and archaeological fragments
needed to craft the armor, and with Underworld Trading you should be able to get
the unique companion gifts and other crafting materials. Are you already a Jedi
Guardian or you are going to become it soon? I certainly would go for these
skills if I want to shape up an impenetrable tanking Jedi Guardian, what about
you? Enjoy wielding!

AA's (Alternate Advancement)
AA's where implemented during the Luclin expansion. AA stands for Alternate
Advancement. In other words it's an alternative way to advance your character
further. AA's can increase your stats, Give you a Free mount, Give you a chance
to crit, give your spells a chance to crit and a ton more. There are around
10000 AA's that you're able to acquire and generally each expansion adds diablo 3 gold a lot more for players to.
What this means is there is ALWAYS something for you to do in Everquest. Along
with AA's you also have raid and leadership XP. I'll get to that later. First
lets start with how to see your AA's. Hit "i" to open your inventory and look at
the bottom of the window. Where you see guild wars 2 gold Alt. Adv. that's
the one you want. Left click on this to bring up a whole other box. You'll see 4
Tabs, General, Archetype, Class and Special. Each tab has different types of
AA's in it, click on them to see what's in them for yourself! In the AA Window
you'll also notice the 4 different categories at the top. They say Title, diablo 3 items Cur/Max, Cost and Category.
The title is the name of the AA, Cur/Max is how many you have points you have
into that AA and what the maximum amount of points you can put into it is. Cost
is how many AA's it costs to put 1 point into it. Finally Category is what
expansion the AA came out during. Now that you know where to find AA's and about
them gw2 gold it's time to teach
you have to earn them! AA's are earned in a very similar way as levels. Hit "i"
again and below where it shows you the XP for your level you'll see your AA XP.
Now open your AA window up again and look at the top right hand corner. You'll
see Exp to AA and a plus and a minus. You can use the plus and the minus to
raise or lower how d3 gold much XP you
want to put into AA's. Keep in mind you can only raise or lower the amount of XP
in 10% intervals. When you gain an AA you can spend it by clicking on a skill in
the AA window and on the right hand side click Train. Now that you know just
about everything there is to know about AA's, next up a lesson in Leadership and
Raid XP. Note: You must be at least level d3 items 51 before you can start earning
AA XP and you can only have a maximum of 30 AA's banked at a time. Leadership XP
Leadership XP works in a way very similar to AA's. The main difference being is
you must be in a group of 3 or more players (Merc's count) to start to earn
leadership xp. To bring up the Leadership XP window hit "L". Notice the tabs up
top just like rift platinum the AA
window and on the right hand side the ability to turn Leadership XP on or off.
When you have Leadership xp on your total xp will be reduced by 20% but you'll
gain leadership points. You can spend these points similar to AA's on the
abilities listed in the window. With Leadership XP you can also Mentor someone.
To mentor someone click on the Group Mentoring button. It will come up with a
new window, Select a Protege out of the list of group members and select the
amount of XP you'd like to give them while mentoring. Also please note that when
you pick the amount of XP you're giving them you're picking that xp from the 20%
that is going into Leadership XP, not the 100% you're earning from a mob. If
you'd like to see my recommendation of where to put your first 100 AA's use my
AA Placement Guide!

Runescape Combat Triangle
The Runescape Combat Triangle is an in-depth yet simple battle method to ensure
success in the wilderness, most likely. Basically, it's a Rock Paper Scissors
situation. Although there are many other factors, this is what the Runescape
Combat Triangle is based on. Let me break it down for you. » Meelee beats Range.
» Range beats Mage. » Mage beats Meelee. Simple enough? Let's see why this rule
applies. Meelee vs. Range: If you're out there using Meelee, and you come across
a Ranger, your plate armor is going to reflect a runescape gold lot of the Ranger's arrows
and cause little to no damage to you. Then you can advance on the Ranger and
slash through the weak leather. Once your close enough to hit them, they are
practically powerless because their arrows do even less damage. Range vs. Mage:
Ok, you're a Ranger this time. You happen to spot a mage, and you send a flow of
arrows their way. The Magic Robes they wear lowers their long-range defenses.
Thus, the arrows just fly right into them. Your leather protects greatly against
swtor credits the magic attacks.
Also, a Mage takes quite awhile to recharge and fire again, while a ranger is
quick on the battle field. Mage vs. Meelee: Alright, Mage you are. You're out
strolling around with a pocket full of runes, Then... What's that? Some guy with
Rune on! You start casting some spells, which his heavy armor will make the
magic attack stronger. You keep your distance, as he tries to get close enough
for an attack his armor slows him down. All the while your firing huge magic
attacks on him. Now that runescape money
you have a basic idea of how the Runescape Combat Triangle works, lets talk
about how you can change the rules for a better advantage. Meelee vs. Range Turn
out 2: Say the Ranger has Full Green Dragonhide, Great stats, about 25 magic. As
your trying to get closer to him, he keeps using Bind on you. This is holding
you a good distance away from him, and all the while, you're just getting
pounded over and over by his arrows. In this situation, the Ranger can win. If
you eventually get close to the ranger, he can simply bind you swtor gold again, and switch to a
shortbow, or just run a little further away. Range vs. Mage Turn out 2: This
time, the mage was prepared for a surprise attack from a ranger, and brought
along some plate legs and a shield. Regardless of the magical drain it gives,
the mage is able to block a lot of your attacks, and send waves of magic at you.
This battle could go on for awhile, but most likely the mage would win. Meelee
vs. Mage Turn out 2: This time the guy with rune on decided to bring a set of
Dragonhide just in case. He slips it on real fast, along with an Anti-Dragon
Breath Shield. Your magic is doing little to no damage now. He runs up and
begins slashing through those weak mage robes. Slash after slash your health bar
goes down, you try to teleport, but you're too deep in the wilderness! You try
to run, but after five steps you fall. So there you have it. Obviously, this is
Runescape, and as such, anything is possible. The Runescape Combat Triangle is
not always a fact. No matter how many people say it is, it is not. There are so
many opinions out there to do things. Especially about Player Killing.

SWTOR Sith Warrior Companions Guide
If you think of what Darth Vader would have been-aggressive, wearing heavy armor ect, that is what you get with a Sith Warrior.
Below you will find the ultimate SWTOR Sith Warrior Companions Guide, including their statistics and what they like and dislike. As a Sith Warrior, you will have the choice at level 10 to pick your advanced class, becoming either a Marauder or a Juggernaut. Regardless of which option you choose, your companions will always be the same. I decided to create this SWTOR Sith Warrior Companion Guide to aid you in your travels, and teach you about what your companions like, dislike, and their respective statistics.
You can click on the companion’s names below to be taken to a full guide on each companion which includes a list of gifts and much more info on each Sith Warrior swtor credits companion.
Vette
Vette is a female Twilek who you will recruit to your crew at around level 7, after complerting your story (class) quests on Korriban (the started planet for a Sith Warrior). You will find Vette in imperial custody, where you free her to work as your accomplice briefly, until she decides to permanently join you. She specializes in being a ranged dps, and uses a blaster pistol to shoot from a distance. She will prefer conversations options which involve talk of money, and rebellion. Vette is romance-able if you play as a male Sith Warrior.
2V-R8
2V-R8 is the droid you will acquire when you receive your ship. Your ship can be obtained from around level 17, but really it will depend on when you complete your class quests on Dromund buy swtor credits Kaas. Really, 2V-R8 is rather pathetic, as he only has one conversation cut scene in the entire game, where he gives you a tour of the ship. He also is not designed for combat, meaning that he will be more or less useless for you. He can, however, be used as a weak healer in combat, or can punch with his fists, and you still get the options to upgrade his armor with better parts. The only thing i find the ship droids are useful for is crew skill missions, though he doesn’t actually have any proficiencies in any crew skill choice. You cannot romance him either, or gain affection with him, but if you listen to what he says to you, you can see he is already 100% devoted to you!
Malavai Quinn
Quinn will be your second companion as a Sith Warrior, and will join your crew at swtor gold around level 27. You will first see him whilst doing some quests on Balmorra, and if you play as a female character, you will have the opportunity to flirt with him during them. He is a funny character to try and romance though, as he tends to blush, go shy, and somewhat avoid your romantic advances. Malavai Quinn’s main role is a healer, though he can be switched to DPS role too.
Jaesa Willsaam
Jaesa Willsaam is a human who specializes as a melee DPS. She will be the third companion you receive whilst embarking on this story line, and you should receive her at around level 32, after completing your class quests on Hutta. When Jaesa becomes part of your crew, you will be close to unlocking your “Legacy” title (if you haven’t done so already). This will be available to players in March, but you wow gold are able to start levelling it up now. If you play as a male Sith Warrior, and gain enough affection with her, you will be allowed to pursue a romantic relationship with Jaesa.
Lieutenant Pierce
Whilst most who don’t possess the force join the military, Pierce did so not out of a sense of duty, but because he longed for a piece of the action. He will become part of your crew as your fourth companion by the end of Taris at around level 35. Ranged Tanks prefer to attack from a distance, which is exactly what you can expect with Pierce. He is human, and male, and prefers conversations involving personal gain, hurting the republic, danger, and laughing at authority. Lieutenant Pierce is another companion character who will be available to romance if playing as a female character.
Broonmark
Broonmark is a sweet looking Talz, who you can recruit on the planet Hoth. He will be the fifth and final companion of a Sith Warrior, and should join your crew at around level 41. He specializes in being a melee Tank, meaning his preferred choice of weapon is a Vibrosword. Secondarily he likes to use a Shield Generator. Some Sith Warriors who choose to play down the Tanking route will realise that Broonmark is not the ideal choice of companion. Instead, I would recommend Malavai Quinn for his abilities to heal.
I hope you enjoyed reading my SWTOR Sith Warrior Companion Guide, and that it served as some use, or aid to helping you understand your companions better. If you’d like to know more, see the advanced guides, which are more in-depth, allowing you to find out which gifts they prefer, statistics, armor proficiency and favorite conversation options.

After Mitt Romney Wins, Media Having Hard Time Facing Facts
Last night, Mitt Romney managed to win most of the delegates available, was victorious in a majority of the states that held contests, and clawed his way back from a double-digit polling deficit in Ohio to eke out a victory. This wasn't necessarily his "best-case scenario" -- had Romney maxed out last night, he might have ended up with 250 delegates or more -- but the 210 he took was well within expectations. He got closer to the magic 1,144 number and wow gold widened his lead on his competitors. But did Romney stomp his competitors into literal puddles of bone and viscera last night? No? Well, then, sorry everyone! Last night's result was actually a split decision. Just like this year's Super Bowl was a split decision, because the New England Patriots scored 17 of the 38 points total produced in the contest. Look: Everyone understands that Mitt Romney is a historically buy wow gold weak frontrunner, and his fortunes thus far have essentially hung on his campaign's ability to marshal the forces of darkness in attack ads that cost millions. And we understand that Romney isn't seen as ideologically pure and that plenty of conservatives are leery of a candidate with a history of politically convenient flip-flopping and isolated flirtations with moderateness and/or liberalness. This is what I mean when I say that cheap wow gold Romney is having trouble "sealing the deal." But Romney's "deal-sealing" problems are more worrisome in a general election, when he'll depend on being able to field an enthusiastic army of supporters to go out and get him votes. As far as the primary process is going, he's actually doing a much better job "sealing the deal" than any of his competitors. But because this process is designed to be elongated, and because the media loves exciting storylines, wow gold eu a night where Mitt Romney went out and did everything he was supposed to do has been turned into a Pyrrhic victory for Rick Santorun and Newt Gingrich, two guys who split a smaller portion of delegates between the two of them, underperformed throughout the night (Santorum couldn't crack a vote threshold in Georgia enough to earn back some delegates; Gingrich didn't finish above third place in any other state than Georgia), and who have big limitations on their campaign infrastructure going forward. What everyone should be saying today is that we now have a race between one guy who could conceivably notch the nomination and three guys who -- acting in concert -- might be able to do enough to deny him the win by the time the primary season ends in June. Instead, we're hearing that Romney could not deliver the "knockout punch" in a contest that ended up a "Republican Split Decision" and that it's actually Romney who has "no clear path to victory."

Josh Mandel Campaign Links To State Campaign List For Federal Race
Ohio Democrats have been complaining that State Treasurer Josh Mandel -- the Republican challenging Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown -- has been using his state campaign lists and resources in violation of federal election rules. But that doesn't seem to have influenced swtor credits the Mandel campaign.
After Democrats sent The Huffington Post a video of someone clicking on a Mandel email from his Senate campaign that went to a site that said State Treasurer, HuffPost tried the same experiment.
The result buy swtor credits was the same. Additionally, attempting to forward the Mandel email -- which announced his Senate bid -- to Brown campaign spokesman Justin Barasky for comment resulted in a message from Mandel's list-managing service saying that Barasky had swtor gold been removed from the list.
Barasky said that he signed up for the treasurer's list more than a year ago, not the Senate campaign that sent the email to HuffPost.
Reliable email lists are expensive to create and maintain, and while campaigns are free to share them, they must pay for them, otherwise it counts as an illegal donation. Brown's complaints to the Federal Election Commission -- most recently last month -- said they showed no evidence of a payment from the Senate campaign to the state operation. A Huffington Post review of the most recent filings found no payments, either.
It's not exactly the crime of the century, but Brown's campaign says it's more evidence that Mandel cares only about his next job, not about the rules you're supposed to follow in getting there.
Mandel's campaign did not respond to a request for comment.

Scott Walker Recall: Wisconsin Governor Narrowly Trails Likely Opponents In New Poll
A new poll finds Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) trailing two likely opponents in a recall election. However, their narrow leads suggest a long road ahead for Democrats hoping to unseat the embattled governor.
According to PPP, Walker's two potential contenders, Tom Barrett and Kathleen Falk, hold narrow leads over the unpopular governor. The poll shows Barrett with a 49-46 advantage, while Falk has a slight 48-47 edge over Walker.
The runescape gold poll also found that former Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.) would have a more commanding lead over Walker than either Barrett or Falk. PPP found that Feingold would hold a 52-45 advantage over the governor. Feingold, however, has said he will not run in the recall election.
Recall organizers gathered over 1 million signatures, nearly double the amount required to force a recall vote. Walker buy runescape gold announced Monday that he would not challenge any of the signatures. "We faced an impossible timeline," Walker spokeswoman Ciara Matthews said.
So far, Barrett and Falk have emerged as the most likely challengers to the governor. Currently the mayor of Milwaukee, Barrett ran against Walker in 2010, losing by about five points.
Falk, a former county executive, has the support of major unions like cheap runescape gold SEIU Healthcare Wisconsin and AFSCME. However, as In These Times reported, a few unions have been hesitant to endorse Falk, who made some controversial budget concessions while serving as executive of Dane County. Among those unions is the Teacher Assistant Association, a leader in last year's labor protests at the Wisconsin State Capitol, who were put off by Falk touting $10 million in cuts she made to public employees' salaries. rs gold
Barrett, too, has his share of union opposition. As the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported, two public employee unions have openly opposed his potential candidacy, due to decisions he made about the city's public school systems and his cuts to the city's budget.
Despite these challenges, the recall effort is in full swing. The Wisconsin Democratic Party released its first ad in the recall campaign on Monday, comparing Walker to Richard cheap wow gold Nixon. The ad centers on the so-called "Walkergate," the ongoing investigation centering on individuals who served under Walker's time as as Milwaukee County executive. So far, six former Walker aides have been charged with criminal activity.
The pro-recall coalition We Are Wisconsin, who played a big role in collecting the signatures, was pleased with the PPP findings.
"While Scott Walker lies about imaginary out-of-state spending against him, the people of Wisconsin have taken democracy into their own hands, collecting over one million signatures to hold him accountable at the ballot box," executive director Kristen Crowell said in a statement. "After spending millions in dirty corporate cash trying to cover up his extreme agenda and his divisive and corrupt administration, Scott Walker and his out-of-state billionaire backers have absolutely nothing to show for it—in fact, the needle has moved in the opposite direction."

New 'Additional Feature' for Health Insurance Finder: Same-Sex C
Don't you wish you could just look up health insurance on Amazon? It'd be easy to see which plans were rated well, then you could read the reviews to see if specific issues you needed were addressed. Of course, when it comes to comparison shopping, health care has long been a black box. Which doctor is best? Which plans cover the most? Can my partner get covered? These questions have all been nearly impossible to answer, until now.
One of the many changes the Affordable Care Act has brought into swtor credits our world is a move toward more transparency in the health care system. To this end, a new website, Healthcare.gov, has built a series of different tools to help the average person find a doctor, compare hospitals, and compare health insurance plans. It's not quite the 1-to-5-star system, and there's no user feedback yet, but it certainly is a great step forward in making health care less of a guessing game for all of us.
One of the major issues buy swtor credits in LGBT health is that we are much more likely to be uninsured than others. In a recent study, researchers found that in California, partnered, male, same-sex couples were less than half as likely to have health insurance as opposite-sex couples. Same-sex female couples had an even smaller chance of being insured, nearer one quarter. Of course, this discrepancy exists because we cannot get married, and to a lesser extent because job discrimination forces some of us swtor gold into lower-paying positions that are less likely to offer health insurance. But for whatever reason, the truth is that this relative lack of access to health insurance is one of the major reason we experience health disparities. We need to be able to get to a doctor before we can get access to checkups, tobacco cessation services, blood pressure medicine, anything. And this is no small potatoes; it affects hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of LGBT people -- perhaps even you?
So wow gold I'm very happy that the federal government has now launched a new tool to help combat this problem. In Healthcare.gov, when you compare insurance plans, one of the "Additional Features" you can now compare is whether they cover same-sex partners (as well as domestic partners).
"Last year, as part of our commitment to work with the LGBT community and be more responsive to the needs of these populations, we promised to improve the Health Plan Finder tool to give LGBT individuals the ability to search for buy wow gold health plans that provide same-sex partner benefits," said HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. "Today we have delivered on that promise."
Kudos to Secretary Sebelius and the other staff at HHS for showing us how we won't be overlooked in health care reform.
Of course, I'm struck by the story of one of my champions in HHS, the openly lesbian head of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, Ms. Pamela Hyde. Having her as an open lesbian at the helm of that important agency has pushed changes we all appreciate, like a focus on LGBT suicide prevention. But when I heard her speak last, she talked about how she'd come from New Mexico to D.C. to take this post, and one of the things she lost en route was health insurance for her partner. The federal government did not offer domestic partner insurance coverage, whereas the State of New Mexico did offer such coverage. So, I really do applaud today's move, but I'm reminded that employers need to allow this coverage before it'll help us to be able to find an insurer who offers it.

Let Us Honor Slave-Owning Presidents?
Here it is again, the intersection of Presidents Day and Black History Month. Eight of our early presidents, beginning with George Washington, owned slaves during their tenure in the nation's highest office. The two I am most familiar with, given my career at the historic sites of Monticello and Montpelier, and as the author of the recently published A Slave in the White House (Palgrave Macmillan, $28.00) are Thomas Jefferson and James Madison.
Jefferson and Madison owned over a hundred enslaved people at their Virginia plantations and took several slaves with them to swtor credits the White House. Running the domestic side of the executive mansion was a private undertaking then, and the third and fourth president each assembled a household staff, headed by a French steward, of about ten: white and free black workers, slaves hired in the capital, as well as slaves from their plantation.
Slavery was not a debate. It was a crime being perpetrated on real people in real time.
Ten-year-old Paul Jennings was one of the home slaves selected by President James Madison for the White House household staff. As a buy swtor credits footman Jennings set and served meals, assisted the coachman, and ran messages and other errands. Later he became Madison's personal manservant or valet, and in freedom he authored the first White House memoir.
One enslaved man, John Freeman, served as a White House footman during both Jefferson's and Madison's administrations. Jefferson purchased Freeman in 1804 with the understanding, set by his former master, that he was to be freed in sixteen years. In 1809, the year Madison's first term began, the third president sold Freeman to his swtor gold successor for $231.81 (calculated to the penny based on Freeman's remaining time as a slave). This is the only recorded instance of the sale of human property between these two presidents, though Jefferson also sold a woman, Thenia Hemings, and her five young daughters, to another of our slave-owning presidents, James Monroe.
It is easy to see the contradiction--some say hypocrisy--in the author of the Declaration of Independence and the father of the Constitution lording over plantations of more than one hundred slaves and presiding over a government wow gold devoted to upholding individual rights while being served by enslaved footmen in livery.
Yet we tend to make excuses for the failure of our Founding Fathers to end slavery. They were men of their time, they had to put union first, they did not understand that we are all one biological race. We look back and see slavery less as a political issue, more as a moral offense. The truth is that Madison and Jefferson saw it that way, too.
Madison acknowledged that slavery was an evil of great magnitude, a "moral, social and economical" failure. Jefferson called it an "abominable buy wow gold crime" and a "moral depravity" and allowed that should a violent contest between slaves and slave owners transpire, there was no doubt which side God would be on.
Both men supported gradual emancipation if something could be done with the free blacks. It was the concept of colonization, the transport of free blacks to Africa that offered Madison relief from his despair over slavery. Maybe all slaves could be freed, he wrote, if the "double operation"--emancipation followed by colonization--was put in place.
Thus in the end it was not slavery but race--racism--that was the cheap wow gold sticking point. Jefferson and Madison thought that people of color should enjoy the same individual rights as white citizens. But not here. They averred that black and white could never live harmoniously in America together.
Two centuries later (centuries!) we are still working on proving them wrong in their prediction, still working on realizing a truly pluralistic society that all Americans honor.
Paul Jennings's great grandson, Dr. C Herbert Marshall, who, along with his fellow black doctors, could not practice in all-white hospitals or even join the American Medical Association, wrote an "op-ed" in the Negro History Bulletin in February of 1960 that started off, " I have every reason to be proud of being an American." It concluded, "Today, we find ourselves on the threshold of a new era ushering in the type of freedom for all for which my fore-parents sacrificed so much."
If Dr. Marshall could offer that positive a sentiment in February 1960, then certainly we in February 2012 can take a sanguine view of the distance we have come since then. If we are not post-racial yet, we are getting there. No matter the sins of the Fathers, it is on us now. A sprint to the finish, anyone? Everyone?

Ten Deep Thoughts on the All-Male Panel on My Vagina
House Oversight Committee Chairman, master car thief and general criminal, Darrell Issa held a hearing today on the Obama administration's new regulation requiring employers and insurers to provide contraception coverage to their employees. Claiming that it was "not about reproductive rights and contraception swtor credits but instead about the administration's actions as they relate to freedom of religion and conscience," Issa barred a progressive woman from testifying, as that would have ruined the all male conservative religious anti-Obama motif he was going buy swtor credits for. This led three Democrats to walk out of the House (which must have been extra hard, because their panties were all up in a bunch). But I watched the hearing. And here are some thoughts.
1. I guess I should give the GOP props for voting against the Violence Against swtor gold Women Act, since it would be hypocritical to condemn violence against women, while at the same time advocating ultrasound rape.
2. This is a really beautiful image of small government and big family values.
3. I'm really glad women aren't allowed to testify at this hearing, which runescape gold is about their bodies. It's a dangerously slippery slope and I think we all know what comes next: box turtles are allowed to testify. It's also really hard to be objective and have a vagina at the same time.
4. Rep James Lankford should recuse himself from abortion discussions, as he, himself, buy runescape gold is a fetus.
5. Given what men of the cloth are known to do in this position, I'm kind of relieved when a clergy member testifies that he gets on his knees every morning and "prays for the president."
6. Joe Walsh shouldn't be speaking or even here. He has way overdue child support to pay.
7. Darrell rs gold Issa throws the panel a real hard ball and asks them "Do you think this hearing was a sham."
8. That hearing was good, but having Fred Phelps there would have made it even better.
9. That hearing was good, but having it in Salem in the 17th century would have made it even better.
10. I'm holding a hearing in which an all female panel will testify for weekly colonoscopies performed on the male clergy and GOP members who participated in today's hearing. We will also discuss Virginia State Sen. Janet Howell's amendment requiring men to have a rectal exam and a cardiac stress test before obtaining a prescription for erectile dysfunction medication.
