Way too much instant coffee last night. I have a headache, feel strung out, and have really bad jitters. I dunno wtf I was thinking BUT be that as it may here's a picture of some food. 
http://www.kitchentreaty.com/pumpkin-pancakes-with-buttermilk-caramel-syrup-and-toasted-hazelnuts/
 
Hopping onto my exile character. Been awhile since I played Zidaya. I dunno if I'll join a guild because I'm rarely on this character, and seem to log in on a sporadic basis. I'm a horrible guildie XD
 
Zidaya crafted his first pair of home made shootin' irons. Not bad for a first attempt. They were a pretty decent upgrade. 
They kinda remind me of this
 
Also updated WIP
 
 
Yeah, I know. There's a lot that needs work but I think I've gotten a lot better over the last year.

*Hops through the window with a crate full of food*
 
Good morning, peoples!
 
Nothing special for breakfast today, just usual. Cheerios and small bit of coffee. Rest of food can be shared, ONLY if others also share things to nibble on! Yes yes, am looking at those hazelnuts right there, Roo!
 
 
Took cassian & mechari to their first vet dungeon yesterday, Stormtalon's Lair. Died many times, but had much fun in voice chat. After that, they came out as different people :D

Rocio's adventures last night were so awesome! After descending into an underground cavern, he was met with an army of weird human things attacking his friends. he wasn't sure what was going on (I got there late,) But he dashed into the fray, backed by Geist and Spectral Swarm!  But after an initial victory, it wasn't long before their spears found their mark and he had to use his healing powers. But then he was right as rain and returned to decimating his enemies... 
 
But then new enemies came who were strong against Psychic abilities as they were one mind with another mental parasite inside it! Ant-human hybrids! Even though he might be able to effect one mind, the other mind would fend off his attack. He was at a loss, all his abilities were Psychic!  He was stuck healing and bolstering his allies which was good because they weren't bad fighters either, shooting flaming bullets throwing acid bombs and summoning a voracious tentacle monster.  Moment of the night, one Aurin Stalker-chopped a ant so badly, the mind parasite got separated from its host!
 
In the end the day was saved! Rocio ran away to vacuum up loot... I mean collect samples! Samples for research. Not loot... SCIENCE!  He had his eye on an enemy shaman's staff. But a fellow player knocked it out of his hand saying the had no authority to take anything. But screw the rules! Rocio is a Black Hood! Rocio grabbed it anyway and snuck out with it.  He wasn't going to caught without a fallback again. He got lucky this time, but he was sore about healing the group instead of killing stuff.  He hates healing. Maybe enemy magic will give him a fallback.

			Good morning! How's the science?Today is the day! I get to interview a bunch of people and I am as turbospazstic as a Chua at the moment. I did not sleep very well. I cannot help but wonder: what if I hire the wrong person? The ER is serious business. No idiots allowed.In WildStar news? Hmm. I got all the lore done minus the impossible book in Southern Grimvault and the scientist-only datacube in Western Grimvault. I will get those done soon. Today is also the day I pick my faction! I will attempt to do so after work at around noon EST. I did find an obnoxious number of Mechari Engineer at endgame, which is disappointing.More to do! More to do! Also, more to do!	
----
			
So ... Got Boomyre on Elvindra to 23SS and Soldier 21 ... full soldier gear and ready for whitevale.
 
Remade "Kytar" from Exile to Dom on Elvindra ... usually all my Kytar characters are stalkers in honour of my Kytar WoW character who is a sub rogue ...but since Mechitar ( Me Kytar) is my Dom Stalker on Elvindara .. Kytar on Elvindra is now a esper 8/ explorer 4.
 
As far as food been thing fusion again ... so ...
 
Blueberry salsa ( yes blueberry ):
 
Massive Blueberries (1 -2 cups )
1tsp of all spice
1/2 a red onion ( minced fine)
1 clove of garlic
1 red pepper chopped fine
1 Jalapeno pepper chopped fine (you know I like my spice)
1 tablespoon of brown sugar
The zest and juice of one lime.
 
Now put that salsa over Spiced Waffles (with clove .. I love clove as you know ) or French toast ( use cream dang it and not milk) and enjoy with BACON!!!! Everything is better with BACON!!!11!!!! ;)
 
Er ... for SCIENCE ( my chua is showing ... 0_o ) in the nexus. ;)

Morning!
 
Last Night I did Skullkickers kicked Skullcano in the well...er Skull! We made a new friend over on Rowsdower
 
Here's a screenie Of our victory over Mister Redmoon. 
 
I thought Skullcano was pretty neat (First time doing it.) I ended up tanking with a couple pieces of several under leveled gear but we did it!
 
Also Tex stopped by and got to see the Glory Of Jacosta's Throne Room.... and he got to see the lovely Room she's prepared for Rocio.

((In all seriousness you should come check it out later tonight!  :) ))
 
{| class="blockquote"
 
 
 
 
Rocio smirks. "It's a shame you spent all that time preparing, as I will be sure never to see the inside of that place."
 
----
			Couldn't log in last night because I was feeling sick to my stomach again.  I might have to go see a doctor today.  Anyway, I'm taking the day off so I'll probably be in Wildstar quite a bit.  Let's see if I can get a new main to 50.

Vic .. when in doubt .. lots of water .. flush the system .. er for Science!!! ;)
 
((get better soon bro! ))

Rocio practically lives with Mordesh because of his condition. Lucy is an older sister to him... he knows a lot of Alchemy because of this. His main tradecraft is technologist. He makes his own potions and medishots in the field.
 
There's a huge number of Aurin in the XAS (the Exile version of The Collegiate) their curiosity makes them great scientists.
 
Most Aurin draw the line at Mordesh Alchemy, though. Rocio's tribe however practiced a warped version of Weave magic that was feared and despised by many Aurin tribes too. Rocio is more into the paranormal/supernatural, nightmare-magic, as a DPS esper.
 
So when it comes to eyes of newt, and toes of frog, that's right up his alley, science or not.

			Onward to my office to judge a seemingly-infinite list of people! Listening to Donna Summer's "I Feel Love" to relax. No, I am not old. One of my favourite group, Blue Man Group, did a remix of that song so I just had to find the original. Turns out that I enjoy the original version too.Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2q2bis6eLEBlue Man Group: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGubeJE115gGood day! Be back at around 1pm EST or so if all goes well.

Good morning.
 
I'm really tired. Like all the way through kind of tired. Slept but didn't sleep, not sure if you know that but it's a real thing. Had crazy dreams that I don't really remember. I do remember walking on top of these snow tunnels, following footsteps of someone, and knowing that the tunnels could collapse at any moment. 
 
In Wildstar news, I got Dott to 20! Yay! And I did some crafting on Reezza. I made 7 airtight containers, not because I wanted to, though. Haha. 	
----
			
I was up until 2 am RPing.
 
2+2 is 5.
 
Don't ask me to do anything. I'll screw it up.
Don't give me anything I will find a way to lose it. I caught myself trying to put toothpaste in the fridge.

*sulks into the thread, wiping his eyes of sleep*
 
Moooorning all! I was out pretty late last night with the Comedy Spot (place where I do theater tech) crew drinking and going to various open mics around town, pretty fun. Sadly, my time on Nexus was very very very short.... however.
 
BAM! Wildstar News!:  I caved into that ever popular craze and made a Chua Esper by the name of Muncheez! Only was able to play until 3rd level but it was pretty fun. I like that fix to that spirit sword spell that had to be casted staying still, I remember in beta that kind of killed the class for me. I took a bunch of screenshots of him, I'll have to post them once I'm back home.
 
*raises his coffee mug that seemed to have been produced out of nowhere* TO WILDSTAR! TO SCIENCE! TO OTHER THINGS!

Morning All :)
 
I didn't get any Wildstar in last night and had planned to make up for that this 3 day week end then my boss (the best boss in the world!) said to me 'Hey! you haven't taken much time off! How about a five day week end?'
 
So I was like.....Is this a trick question?
 
So OMG!! I have 5 days IN A ROW off!! (so excited I feel light headed.....or maybe I'm just overly caffeinated....)
 
I'm imagining this...
 
 
 
 
but the reality will be more like this....
 
 
 
 
yay?

I was not aware that biome fabkits dropped from pvp bags. 
I love Deradune, but as a mordesh it just seems out of place.....and it's soulbound.

Good (Mid) Morning Everyone!
 
Yaaaaay for long weekends!
 
I'm off until Tuesday after noon today.
 
Of course that just means that I get to do chores when I get home though.  <_<
 
W* wise, after last nights playtime, I got my Medic (Fyxe) to 50! (Yaaay! That's four fifties!) and will start gathering the Daily Data Rations for her. I'll try to do the Arkship Attunement task for Cyphar and Iggy this weekend. Then I'll push to see if I can get the last two Alts to 50 as well.
 
I also need to try to get my shots from my daughters LARP group out of the camera and done. Not too many but it's more time away from W*.
 
So, let's get on with the day and get to the weeeeekend!  :lol:

Hey look, I started replying again before I said good morning.  I'm so rude.
 
Good morning everyone!
 
I have another fun-filled day of endless meetings to look forward to but the end is in sight!  Just today, and tomorrow, and then weekend, and then.... vacation!  A glorious 9 days of no work!  There will be much Wildstar :)
 
All I did last night was craft.  But I managed to finish two more boxes in the artisan armorer tech tree.  I made a set of blue Galactium Weave armor and put it up on the auction house to see how it does.  Hoping to get my third Epochos schematic tonight.  I am such a crafting addict :)

Ingredients
 
1/2 pound ziti
2 cups milk
2 cups coarsely grated gruyere cheese (about 6 ounces)
1 cup finely grated parmesan cheese (about 4 ounces)
2 large eggs
3 slices white sandwich bread, roughly diced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing
1 medium onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt
8 ounces thinly sliced deli-boiled ham
 
Directions
 
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the ziti and cook until al dente, about 6 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl; toss with 1/4 cup milk.
 
Meanwhile, combine both cheeses in a bowl. Beat 1/4 cup milk and the eggs in another bowl; fold in the bread and add half of the cheese.
 
Melt the butter in a saucepan over high heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook, stirring, until just brown, 2 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour, cayenne, nutmeg and 1 teaspoon Kosher salt; cook, stirring, about 2 minutes. Slowly add 3/4 cup water and the remaining 1 1/2 cups milk; bring to a boil, stirring until thickened. Remove from the heat and whisk to cool slightly. Whisk in the remaining cheese, then add the pasta and toss.
 
Butter a shallow casserole dish. Add half of the pasta, top with some of the ham and cover with the remaining pasta. Top with the remaining ham, then cover with the bread mixture. Bake until golden and bubbly, about 20 minutes. Let rest a few minutes before serving.

STAYCATION - stay in the house all day!
STAYCATION - meant to be spent at hooome!
 
With apologies to The Go-Gos.
You must be peanut butter, because I am JELLY!

And speaking of caffeine:
 
 
 
 
Protostar knows what's up!
 
And finally...
Blue Man Group...oh man, that song is so great, but check out this live version to get more of a full Blue Man experience.  The description is dead on - just CHECK OUT the look on the singer's face!  She looks genuinely full of joy to be up there on that stage singing her heart out.
Also, her dress looks like a psychedelic toddler toy.

You've never seen the films from the 80s with Chevy Chase? National Lampoon's Vacation, European Vacation, and Christmas Vacation?
 
Chevy Chase plays Clark W Grsiwold and leads his family through hilarious situations. First on a cross country trip to a theme park called Wally World, then on a trip they win to Europe, and finally even at home during the holidays when family comes to stay. The wife is played by Beverly D'Angelo but the kids are different actors each time.

The first one is the best though European Vacation has its moments, and I can't help but love Christmas Vacation but the first one is the classic. Vegas vacation is a recommended skip.

			You know, I'm constantly amazed by this game's attention to detail.  I just finished the Darkspur wing of Malgrave.  It's fascinating how much detail was put into their ramshackle spaceport.  A bar, karoake bar and stage, a TV hangout, there's just so much there and it all looks like it was built piece by piece with so much care.

I liked Mark Twain's "I never let my education get in the way of my learning."
 
Honestly from everything I have heard most colleges anymore are just heavily politicized circle jerks.
 
Not having money is the first reason I didn't want to go to college, that and having no idea what I would want to study more make a job about, hearing the BS of colleges makes me think that despite my crap circumstances that I made the right choice at least as far as my integrity goes.
 
My buddy, who ended up dropping out, told me he had an ignorant ass professor that insisted that anime was nothing but excessive amounts of gore and child porn.
 
My buddy called him out on it in front of class and the professor said "Well then prove me wrong." My buddy made a thorough report on how he was full of crap. He made the professor look like a fool in front of everyone and he remarked "Pissed off every single girl in that class."

Yeah, point being that if someone tearing your work that you've spent weeks or months on a new *cupcake* rubs you even slightly the wrong way, architecture's not a good fit for you.  You'll have clients, contractors, engineers, and public officials doing that every second you don't have other architectural designers doing it.

It's a scary thought, but in a lot of instances, you can't count on just building inspectors to catch mistakes. Building inspectors are basically the last ditch effort to catch construction errors at the end of the process, and to hold the contractors accountable for building according to the design. The design portion of the process is where (hopefully) you have good people to catch major errors before they're implemented.
 
 
It was a difficult lesson to learn that harsh criticism isn't necessarily a personal attack, especially since most architecture students are overachievers who are used to being praised for just about everything they did in high school. Now that I'm actually working, I find that harsh criticism makes it easier to remember the things that I've neglected to consider in the past. Some of my favorite clients are the ones who aren't afraid to tell me I'm an idiot (when deserved). Of course, then the remainder of my pride makes me try to prove that I'm not, but that's just part of the fun. ^_^

Yeah, I had the pleasure of learning from Rob Livesey one year.  He's the former dean of the school and probably the sharpest architectural knife in the drawer I've ever met.  We got to pick who we wanted for spring and he said something about the Union redesign.  I thought, that sounds like fun!  Realized later that he's one of the harshest teachers at the school.
 
I spent the entire quarter trying desperately not to fail.  For every thing I did right, I did ten things wrong.  For every great idea I had, I screwed it up with a hundred ancillary things I didn't think about.  He hit me for everything from the placement of my loading dock (and yeah, he told us we needed a loading dock and what we needed for it) to how light was getting into the important spaces.  I was just struggling to get out of that class with a D.
 
Final review came up, and I got glowing praise from everyone on the panel, including Rob, and got an A in his studio.  I literally want to cry thinking about it now, because I have a tremendous amount of respect for the man to know he thought so highly of my work in his class.  He just couldn't tell me that, there was a lot wrong in my project right down to the wire.  He needed to be brutal, to teach me to look at everything all at once and to understand the entire project as a whole, every single little thing I was doing I had to weigh and understand.
 
Still probably one of the proudest moments of my life, that A.

Do they still make Blade Runner mandatory viewing? I have a friend who is an architect, and he said that during the 80's and 90's they'd make everyone watch it due to Syd Mead's design work on the show. 
 
Also, from everything I've read Frank LLoyd Wright was a fabulous artist but absolute crap when it came to practicality. Most of his buildings are falling apart, and a lot of the construction folks had to add stuff he didn't want because otherwise his buildings would collapse

Eventually, you get that they actually meant you should change it without losing anything.  They teach you to be looking all over the place.  It's good practice for when you're on a floor and you say, "Well, if I just move the elevator a foot or two to the right, it'll be fine!"  You learn to check every floor, whatever is against it, what's on the roof, will the structure need to move, can people still see the elevator from the adjacent hall.  Moving a piping chase six inches could mean hours of work fixing every little thing that changed.

There's one game on Steam that I absolutely love and it's called Tribes Ascent. It's not exactly your typical first person shooter as there are jet packs and it's more fast paced. I know a lot of people who play Ascent play it because they used to play the original Tribes (no, there was no Tribes 2..............), but if you think that a fast paced action packed CTF/DM game with jet packs and skiing (press a hold a button to slide along the ground to go faster) then I would highly recommend this.

Actually, Wright had a major problem with practicality more than his buildings falling apart.  He did a lot of his own engineering calculations (which was more common back then, before you needed that engineer's stamp from someone keeping up the practice) and that's why they had to post-tension Fallingwater before it fell into the water.

Yeah, actually, cloth and ore both sell decently well.  Especially on Dominion lately, for whatever reason.  Spenser's auctions don't usually come back.  Seeger's have been, but that might be because he's got a lot of decor and other random goods that sometimes take a few rotations.  CX is usually pretty quick on turnaround if you like the bottom price.

Architecture totally relates to WildStar.
 
First of all, there's the game architecture and the comparison of how EVERYTHING is connected in some way.  You have to be able to see the big picture, and work with it to make adjustments that don't bring the whole thing crumbling down into a useless pile of junk.
It has to be "livable" and inviting, too.  I can see that.
Really good points, Vic.
 
Second of all, there's the in-game HOUSING!  Yeah, it doesn't follow real architecture because in real life, you can't really smush things together and merge an object into another to make something different.  BUT you do still have to take into account things like directing people to an area, making it inviting, and making it so you can run around in the building without snagging your head crystals or your claws on something.  heh
 
Really fascinating discussion.
In my WildStar-related news, I am just finishing up my lunch (leftover black bean salad and blueberry tea), and then will be hopping back in.
I'm totally debating whether I want to embark on an alt already since my medic is only level 19.
I'd kind of like to try an engineer, and I have "TonySnark" - such a handsome Cassian fellow!  He makes me giggle every time I see him in my character list, but I'm just not sure he'd be...accepted on a RolePlay server.  After all, I'm one of the people who used to cringe every time I saw a "WillFeral" druid running around in WoW.  -_-

 Why would anyone ever need that? Don't they know it's NEVER Lupus?

We use saline a lot. You put it in insulin pumps to teach people to use their pump before they try it with the actual insulin. 
 
Random fact: The small bottles of saline we use are currently on back order from all suppliers. My theory is a Chua blew up the factory because how do you run out of salt water solution for 6 months? 
 
:P

*thinks*  If I remember right, spinal concussions were typically the use.

			I know this thread is probably going to get moved but... does any care at this point? If so please post a Chua.

 I just saw that as one of the uses and couldn't pass up the opportunity for a bad joke. Honestly if I was a head of a bunch of doctors and they threw in lupus EVERY SINGLE TIME I'd smack the shit out of them. I mean it doesn't have THAT many damn symptoms does it?

I need another Carnival / Festival type spot.  Thoughts?

			Good prices, Chua quality!...I wish. It seems the market on Evindra, as far as gears are concerned, has hit a dead end. I blame the up-and-coming changes to gears.

Just ran into a bunch of people on Malgrave.  Before work even really lets out EST.
 
I guess we aren't dead! \o/
 
Now down for quick server maintenance though. :P

Was just cropping the next pic of Teppysnark dancing, when I noticed the unauthorized bioscience going on in the background!  You might have to STRAIN a bit to notice it, but it's bursting out in the worst photobomb.  haha!
 
 
And there's Teppysnark, dancing 'til the world ends.

I had to look that up. I didn't get very far in WoW, so those references are usually lost on me. Anyway...
 
lol. Look up a screenshot. It kinda looks like a cozy party spot...although it does have heart balloons...

			I wish we could raze our property to be able to build from the ground up.

Me too..... O.O
 
Especially if it was like roller coaster Tycoon and you could go flying off the track and explode in mid air.... Epic fun for me for hours. Hahaha.

I would like more terrains. Grass is fine sometimes. But I want moon or dirt or rock or metal. At least give me a mower so I can shorten the grass.

The request has been made lots of times. I agree, and I hope they implement it whenever they get around to expanding the housing system.
 
They have said that they're working on allowing us to change the landscape (hooray for having snow on the ground!), so hopefully this'll be included with that.

I would absolutely love the ability to include water features. Maybe being able to set a source point and an end point, and somehow the game figures out how the water flows from A to B.
 
I'm probably a developer's nightmare. :unsure:

I can't wait until they roll out the next patch.
 
And honestly, it's not for me.  Nor is it for anyone else anymore per se.
 
I'd just really like to have a discussion on the GD forums outside the coffee thread that isn't about server populations.
 
Just enjoying being able to log in and to hang out here.

			Oh and I would like to be able to purchase a bigger plot in game or be able to create a bigger plot.
