Elementals are better to use than Soldiers because they have more health, are stronger, it takes Vez'nan two hits to kill them, and Vez'nan's Soul Drain attack does not work on Elementals because they are just made of rock and have no soul.

![]() ![]() Are we too busy playing Candy Crush or posting on Facebook and Twitter to crack an actual paper spine? Maybe. Oh no! The ugly truth is that Americans as a whole lag behind most of the rest of the world when it comes to reading books. Americans don’t read as much as most other countries Fully 80 percent of 18–29-year-olds reported reading at least one book, compared to 69 percent of seniors (65+). One notable aspect of the data is that people tend to read less as they age. But the bottom line is that educated, high-earning women sit atop the reading pyramid in America. It’s hard to say whether education and income are causes of this trend since people who go to college probably grow up reading more anyway, and income correlates with education. Also, the more money they earned, the likelier they were to be readers. Across both genders, readership also went up with education and income.Ībout 90 percent of college grads read at least one book a year, compared to 34 percent of people who haven’t finished high school. Also, the average woman read 14 books in 12 months, while the average man read only 9. About 77 percent of American women read a book in 2015, compared with 67 percent of American guys. Here’s what the data showed: Educated, affluent women read the most ![]() Certain groups read more, or less, than the country as a whole. Of course, there’s plenty of variation among demographics. The most frequently reported number was 4 books per year. The average number of books each person read over the course of a year was 12, but the most avid readers inflate that number. However, these stats include people who reported reading “one book…in part,” so it’s unclear how many made it all the way through. The figure now stands at 75 percent, according to the recent statistics released by Pew Research Center. Roughly 72 percent of American adults read a book in 2015, continuing a gradual decline over the last 5 years (from 79 percent in 2011). The Pew Research Center released their latest data on American reading habits, and the results show some interesting - and somewhat surprising - trends. ![]() Over the course of four fowl weeks, the Gamecocks' mascot went from Sir Big Spur, to the Cock Commander (kind of) to The General, to Sir Big Spur again. What's in a name? When it comes to the University of South Carolina's live rooster mascot Sir Big Spur, the answer is a whole lot of ruffled feathers. ![]() 23: Claw & Order: The Ballad of South Carolina Mascot Sir Big Spur Our resident football brainiac Bill Barnwell joins us to break down an NFL Week 3 that seemed to defy any logical explanation. And the Eagles proved why they are perhaps the class of the NFC by staying undefeated with a dominating win over the Commanders. The Raiders dropped to 0-3, making them the only winless team in the league despite splashy off-season moves. The Chiefs stumbled against a Colts team that had looked hapless in their first two games. The Dolphins upset the Super Bowl favorite Bills, despite a tuchus-deflected punting mishap that rivaled the "Butt Fumble" in ridiculousness. When you punt the ball off the butt of your own personal protector and still win the game, you know it's a strange week around the NFL. 26: Dolphins Survive Butt Punt, Colts Stun Chiefs in a Bizarre NFL Week 3 Jeff Passan, a man who is not afraid to make tough decisions, settles the debate once and for all.

Baxter Holmes, the ESPN reporter who kicked off this entire saga, explains why Sarver suddenly changed his mind about selling, what this means for the NBA.and how this story is far from over. One week later, Sarver has put both teams up for sale. ![]() The WNBA's Phoenix Mercury, who Sarver also owns, came forward and said they were excluded from the investigation altogether. Fans and players felt it wasn't enough, and had been calling for the Phoenix Suns' owner's banishment from the league. Sarver, the subject of a massive investigation by ESPN and later the NBA, was suspended one year for racist and misogynistic behavior. The aftermath of the Robert Sarver investigation has been anything but what the NBA had hoped. 28: How Phoenix Moves on from Robert Sarver And we try to understand what's been happening behind the scenes as one of the most famous retired athletes in this country is accused of defrauding the poorest people in America's most impoverished state.and where this case goes next. So we talked to the government investigator who helped uncover the largest fraud scandal in Mississippi history, state auditor Shad White.

There are 5 maple trees where I work, and for the last 10 years or so I have watched them turn brilliant orange and red about this time, but this year, the leaves are turning brown and falling off the tree without even changing color, due to the terrible drought we have had in Maryland this year. Things (i.e., the climate) are definitely different here in Baltimore. See this? Don’t ever touch that part of the camera, right here, don’t touch that, there, no, move your fingers, look, right here, that little piece of glass, never touch that, okay, don’t touch it, don’t touch that, yeah, the piece that you’re touching, let me get a lens cloth, okay, there, that, never touch that again, okay?” …rinse and repeat) (picture me first calmly and then frantically saying…”Honey, move your hand over. then again, I let my child use it so…that lens has been through some challenges.

Kind of the down side of our totally automatic point and shoot digital cameras. Have you used a tripod and put some tape down so you remember where you were shooting from each time? It is weird how the color range, lighting and even focus seem to vary so much in the film you shot. I don’t want to encourage compulsive behaviors but maybe shooting at the same exact time of day would be good? I’m buying shares in ski-making equipment companies myself … This year the jet stream went North and the gulf stream went South so instead of summer we had a monsoon where we didn’t have a day without rain for about 6 weeks.Īpparently the prediction is that all the fresh water melting from the Arctic slows down the gulf stream, moving it South, so Britain (roughly) gets the same weather as Newfoundland or Moscow and Spain becomes even more of a desert. Spring is definitely getting earlier and earlier – we’ve got gardening and weather reports going back 250 years to prove it. ![]() We’ve had some very weird weather – spring bulbs have appeared in September/October, birds laying 3 sets of eggs instead of 2 (successfully).

The Independent recently reported a temperature of 22 Celsius in the Arctic and that for the first time in recent history, ships have been able to sail the Northwest Passage without icebreakers. it’s odd and disconcerting.Īlison, is there a way to make the transitions in your film less jarring? i agree about doing it the same time of day and in the same place. no changing leaves at all which almost always happens by now with my maple tree. some of my roses are blooming again but not near the number that usually occur with slightly cooler weather. Now i live in the southwest and it’s still hotter than hades which is ridiculous for this time of year. i sort of got lost and had to ask directions from a man who looked like someone out of tam o’shanter (i was studying robert burns at the time) and who lived in this huge victorian lit up with pumpkins. ![]() on that night i remember it was foggy and dark driving through the green mountains and the trees looked like skeletons.

There are still missions this time, but they do tend to be a bit more simplistic. In Playground, you’re looking at $10-$25 per delivery. In the original Virtual City, each delivery of a good to another building would net you an easy $400-$600 depending on which good you were delivering. A bakery will cost you around $13,500, whereas it used to cost only around $5000. On top of that, buildings also cost a whole lot more to purchase this time around. The problem is that you don’t have enough money to get all of these buildings at once. This is where the problems begin, you have to get a production line of pies running and in order to do that, you have to buy a wheat farm, dairy farm, a grain mill, bakery and a shopping mall.
