    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah, for $30 I think I might as well drop the cash and buy the full game. Not sure if Ill sub past the free trial month, but well see. Kinda liking Warrior so far. I often play paladins, but nothing beats smashing things with a giant two-hander!

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    In the vein of the current conversation, I'm thinking about trying this out on the free trial. As far as soling, how are their tanks for solo leveling? Was thinking of starting with a beefy melee class, but wasn't sure how each of them play out versus levelling as a DPS. And, I see that you...

    Started up this league after playing just a bit at the end of Delve league, character name is Muatamo. Working on a Jugg to just facetank the shit out of everything after playing a necromancer in Delve. May try some kind of Ice build later on once I see how all the buffs pan out.

    Yeah, that's something you need to check on to see how its listed in their prices. As far as the specialist, when I had to have my two root canals done, I did have to go to an Endontist(sp?) since my dentist office didn't do the procedure themselves. Which was ok cause the guy was very good...

    You may want to check about the Root Canal price itself. In Florida, the price for the root canal was per root, so a molar having 3-4 roots would be more than a front tooth. if your price is $210 per root, versus $210 for the whole tooth, then that's where the discrepancy is coming from. As...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    Sad to hear. Had quite a bit of fun when the game came out; atmosphere was fun and the housing was alot of fun to experiment with. I kind of feel they pushed a bit too hard with the constant dodging and CC shield break mechanics in the dungeons. Stuff was brutal for any kind of PUG to try and...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The worst part is, she doesn't even tell Anduin anything about it. If you go to the Alliance side and listen, all she says is: "Oh, the talks we're.... unsuccesful." No mention at all about the fact that her mere presence allowed the Void to open a portal against her will and nearly consume...

    Sylvanas is a tragic character who is currently stuck in a no win situation: For her people to survive, others must die and then brought back in undeath just like them. And for all that, if she and her people don't survive, they face an eternity of suffering. She and the Forsaken are literally...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Oh there have been outside forces who have been pushing things in various directions. But, as of this moment, I don't think she has been corrupted. Has being turned undead dampened her emotions to the point that she is a cold hearted, ruthless bitch when she wants to be? Absolutly, but not...

    Sylvanas is stuck in a situation with no good ending. She fought the good fight against Arthas, only to have him raise her up as a Banshee purely as a dick move because he was butthurt she slowed him down. She then spends the time from then until WotLK plotting her revenge on Arthas and trying...

    True. Of course he is the night elves leader and also the single most powerful druid on the whole planet, who nearly stopped the whole Horde offensive with a wall of wisps. Taking him out is both a strategic neccesity and a way to take the fight out of their forces. It is war and Sylvanus...

    Note that she only wants to capture Teldrassil, not destroy it. She just wants to cut off the Alliance ability to transport the Azerite from Kalimdor to Stormwind.

    So, its been about a month since we lost my brother, but we haven't given up the search to find his body.

    Sorry, hadn't had a chance to post for a bit. But yeah, the search for him has been suspended. It was just too long between the accident and when we found the vehicle, don't really know what happened to his body at this point. We had a Memorial Service for him last Saturday. Had a lot of...

    So, as a final update: They have suspended the search for Paul. The area his vehicle went into has proven too difficult to continue safely searching and the agencies involved have exhausted all resources they have available. At this point, there's not much more we can do, unless we wanted to...

    Well, they found his vehicle last night. It went off the road into a swampy/marshy area along the side of the Interstate. He was not in the vehicle when it was pulled out of the water. The vehicle rolled as it went down the embankment, so they are not sure if he was ejected or not. They...

    Yeah, it was worded poorly there. The company he works for does the removal (Picking up of the deceased body) for funeral homes. He had taken someone up to Jacksonville, where there is a company that does the tissue harvesting (For those who choose to be a tissue donor). He had made the drop...

    That's probably what I will try and get them to do next. At this point, probably will do more driving tomorrow, see if I can take some other routes he may have gone. Getting a location would just help narrow the search. Dunno how long the process would take, but phone records are our best...

    No, was an X-ray. I think it was to check the bones to ensure there was no fractures or underlying issues they couldn't detect from the physical exam. Granted, this is the Workmans' Comp doctor so I take things with a grain of salt, but it seems sound for now. Basically, he said since I...

    Yeah, but I haven't had any numbness, was just the pin and needles and the aching. Was why I am thinking its maybe a nerve. If so, only question is whether its originsting in the spine or further out in the limb.

    potential MI? Looking up, I'm guessing you meant Heart Attack? Yeah, I worried about that too, but I've been checking my BP each day and its been ok. My resting BP is around 130/80, haven't had any high spikes or anything that I can tell.

    Looking up on this, what is recommended to do if I get this? Just do cardio for a day or two untill the soreness goes away or keep to the weights? Looking at what I eat, I gather that I eat more carbs than I should. That will likely be the major change I need to make - cutting carbs and...
