High Inquisitor whitemane looks really good. It's like one turn worth of Kel'Thuzad but for one less Mana.

And arcane devourer looks like a fun greedy option for cyclone mage decks. Probably much too slow to be any good on average though. But devourer + images gives you a 6/6 with two taunts for protection that might keep it around long enough to go off.

Or just play questing and call it a day

I think the issue is how we've fostered a system where freshmen entering college are bombarded with the idea that "it's okay to sign for that loan because everyone had student debt following them so it's no big deal".

And know that's the impression I was given, and if I had not known from my dad's experience with college debt that followed him into his 40s I would have seen the appeal.

Throw in the fact that student loan debt sticks to you more than to average debt, particularly if it's privately held rather than federal.

It's just a crappy situation.

.

But then yeah, ideally a solution would address the situation itself which is the proliferation of the loans and not just the ensuing debt.

Bitter Root, Snowdrop, Re'em Blood

Do not discard these potion ingredients. These ingredients are used in all 3 exstimulo potions. (Makes your spells more likely to succeed at casting during traces).

Those 3 with granian hair is the level 1 exstimulo potion.

Or with Abraxan hair is the level 2

And with Unicorn is the level 3.

So at this point I'm tossing all granian hair because I don't really have the need to brew the level one potion anymore.

.

I'm trying to remember which supplies are for which potions so I know which ones I can toss or keep fewer of to conserve space.

For example dragon liver is only used for healing potions and it only takes one apiece so I've scaled back to only keeping 5 of those.

Stuff like that.

So I had like 3 paragraphs typed about my experience with the wizard challenges so far and they deleted, so you get this instead.

-make sure you are good on energy before starting one. You will likely have to duel several enemies and if you run out of energy then that's it.

-we were able to join the same party because there was a longer lobby before the tier 3 challenge started.

-we still don't know what affects the difficultly and enemy typing from the challenges. There's the tier of the challenge itself, the level of runestone you use to initiate it and maybe the number of people in the party? Still lots to learn.

So the Portkeys were cool, but you need a good bit of space to make use of them. Once you open it you pick an area on the ground to deploy it, then a portal appears. You can walk through the portal into a location from the HP universe and look around and there will be a few things to click to collect while you are visiting.

Mine took me to Borgin and Burke's, and my wife's went to Hagrids Hut.

.

And we each did a couple of level one wizard challenges, but we couldn't figure out how to team up for the same challenge. The countdown before it starts was only like 5 seconds. We'll have to look into that more.

The new mobile game from Niantic came out.

I still play a good bit of Pokemon Go and I'll be giving Wizard's Unite a shot as well now that it's out.

It has a lot of similarities, and from what I've seen some far today there are a ton of different categories and systems within which to level things up so there is a lot to do.

As far as similarities:

Instead of catching Pokemon, you have encounters where to have to nullify some chaotic magic by casting a spell. This free's the "whatever" was being affected by the chaotic magic so it returns to it's rightful place. You cast the spell by tracing a design that's different for each spell.

The "whatevers" that you rescue get broken down into a dozen different categories (magical beasts, dark arts, etc) and the more you rescue within reach category the the more that category levels up.

Instead of pokeballs you have magic energy. You expend one energy each time you attempt a spell on one of the encounters.

You regain this energy by visiting 'Inns' which are like pokestops. The Inns give you food that replenishes your magic energy and you can visit them every 5 minutes.

Instead of hatching Pokemon eggs you unlock Portkeys. I don't know what happens when you walk far enough to unlock a portkey yet, but you have an infinite use golden key or you can use finite use silver keys to unlock the Portkeys you find on the ground.

And when I say find on the ground that's exactly what I mean. There is crap scattered everywhere. You'll see random potion ingredients and Portkeys and stuff to collect scattered amongst the encounters.

.

I'm still not entirely sure what the gameplay loop will settle into other than clicking all the encounters you see to rescue all the things and level up the various categories, but it's early yet and some things like professions I still need to level up for

But yeah if you plan on playing please add me.

I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

In which vision this old legend is repeated.
In each time I met such a traveller,
Who seemed to me far older than they themselves
Were, and yet had not yet spoken up and been brought to
Thy sight. 'Twas a vision of great greatness, and
The voice they uttered in their quiet, silent way
And yet spoke with a kind, humble and solemnity
Of the world and its inhabitants.
But what is this great dream now?
In a word, how can it be? But there is an answer,
I say, I see, it is not dream, it is thought.
For the first time, I see a city without a capital,
A town without a city,
A castle without a castle; a country without a country,
A temple without a temple; a city without a city.
Nor is there any such thing as a desert of such magnitude."

Four score and seven years ago in the Bronx, Anthony Gaudino fought a violent beating that he blamed on the cops at the corner of West 34th Street and West 59th Avenue. Police said that Gaudino's fight was part of a "protest." They said that Gaudino was beating the officers because he didn't want them to shoot him over a ticket or something. Some of the cops involved in the beating said as much.

At the time, the New York City Police Department's Police Strategy Report on the case listed the officers involved in the arrest as: 1) Anthony J. Gaudino: 22; and 2) Frank J. Garzetta, 38. On June 4, 2007, on a warm summer night in August, Anthony Gaudino was brutally beaten down by a gang of three plainclothes police cops. He lost six teeth. The cops were charged with assault and battery. After the incident the NYPD filed their final report on those involved in that attack on the scene. One of the cops, Frank W. Garzetta, is now serving time for his crime. When news broke of the arrest of the officers in that attack, Mayor Bloomberg quickly ordered an investigation. The NYPD said they would only release the name of the officers who were involved, but never charged the officers involved with the beating, just the officers "involved in the arrest,"


I'd like to think Abe would be proud.

Also in my headcanon for this one there are two people involved named Anything Gaudino, both the protestor who was beaten, and one of the cops involved in the beating.

Barack Obama. And the Republicans won the 2014 Senate elections. You need the Presidency and the Senate to place a new justice on the Supreme Court.


And it's almost like every other time when the President and Senate majority were from opposing parties, the Senate still approved the reasonable nominations from the President. And then this shit happened:

Garland's nomination expired on January 3, 2017, with the end of the 114th Congress. The nomination remained before the Senate for 293 days, the longest nomination process in the history of Supreme Court nominations.

Mew2King vs Armada is a classic rivalry. Both teams went for it in 2015. Their matches were very tight and every one of the 3 games were decided by a win for Mew2King, a loss for Armada or a tie for the loser. Their biggest rivalry was also their most difficult match. While Mew2King has great mains, Armada, due to the fact that Mew2King plays so much better, has some serious weaknesses. However, both mains can win against Mew2King and if they can defeat him, it's a tough match.

Mew2King's biggest weakness are his weak grab game and his poor spacing and mobility. His dthrow has less mobility than Armada's and it can also be difficult to read for him. Even in my tournament, Mew2King didn't have too much options with his fsmash. That's not to say he has no options if it comes down to it, but he's not really an option that's great. This would be the only place that Armada would come into play, although if he played a standard mixup game like Mew2King does, Armada would have a chance against him.

This matchup really has all sorts of tools that could break up this matchup. Armada's best option is just to go berserk and win the matchup, something Arm

Okay this one was fantastic:

Mewtwo used psychic. It was super effective! Mewtwo didn't stop in time. With its psychic attack, Mewtwo had defeated the Gym Leader in a matter of three seconds and defeated the Gym Leader three more times in three seconds!
Mewtwo now appeared like a new shiny Pokmon.
After the attack on Pokmon Mansion by the Team Rocket Grunts, Meowth and Psyduck were still in the grass and could not have been used to recover on themselves!
Mewtwo's Psychic attack was just as effective. Its attacks were so effective that the opponent lost their balance and fell down straight away!

Optimus Prime was walking along an empty road in Earth's orbit when he spotted several Imperials. He approached them quickly but was greeted at the sight of several battle droids surrounding him, one of the two on the right. As one of the Imperials asked about a hologram, Optimus Prime was forced to ask why they were there, the other replied that since this was Earth the Rebels couldn't do anything to it, so they should just ignore everything. Optimus Prime then asked them if they had anyone there he could trust since he would be able to know if anyone was there due to the hologram.

Optimus Prime continued on with his questions when several more stormtroopers approached from the ground below where they could be heard arguing a bit. A group of stormtroopers called out their leader Boushh who said they must be trying to kill him since he was wearing an Imperial uniform. Optimus Prime asked if there was anything he could do since the Jedi Master was there and he replied there was something he could do. He attempted to explain to Boushh that the Jedi would need to leave because one of them wanted to destroy the planet. He said they should have left him to die as there was something they didn't understand about him so they couldn't tell what he was really about, however they had to leave and they wanted him to leave too.

If I'm going out of my way to find the negative then I would say that it doesn't sound that they have changed the "normal" marriage procedures, but merely added these extra, optional methods.

So most people will still get "real marriages" and the "other people" can get their legal equivalent.

At least that's how it reads to me, that this isn't replacing the existing procedures, just adding new ones.
