...can't happen, not incredibly unlikely to happen- but truly impossible then no great shock it doesn't happen. What needs to inform your work- how often does what you cast happen? If it has a thirty percent chance of accruing, and your spells work 31% percent of the time- I'm not going to be wowed. However, if the results jump up to 85% then I'll agree you're on to something. I strongly hold that ...
..., in which one prerequisite for success is an obsessive and overwhelming desire for power, such extensions of power were clearly irresistible. Gary Younge, in The Guardian , accurately characterizes the mutual benefits accruing from "the recklessness and vacuity at the heart of the US response to 9/11". To galvanise the nation for war abroad and sedate it for repression at home, the previous ...
... handling the situation...and they treated her like a criminal. How much money do you suppose her account was worth after 4 years of intense play? Countless hours not just leveling and gearing up, but accruing rep, pets, achievements, etc? You can't replace those as easily as you could grind a new character up to 80 and get them geared. Because in-game items are worth real world currency (there'...
... a little break, he clicks on it. He instantly wishes he hadn't. In flowery language, the financial aid department informs him that his scholarship only covers school-year rooming, not summer. He's been accruing a debt without realizing it, his books for this term finally putting him over the limit. If he wants to graduate on time, he'll either need to make up the difference immediately or live ...
..., taunting and somehow eerily romantic at the same time, the music making this wall of buzzing, whirling noise, like some eeerie vortex. Even his voice sounds more like the MES I know, his vocal chords accruing a little timbre of age (or maybe just the booze and fags). "Hey fuckface.... kill it, kill it!.... you won't find anything more ridiculous.... the Classical! The Classical!" I have no idea ...
I lie, garroted across the carotid, spreading lake of red life already cooling beneath me. I lie like a thrown towel on the forty-fifth floor of my own ambition, accruing layers the size of years, as guilty and as innocent as the muscles inside a rapist’s fingers. Once more onto the boards, my friends! All the world’s backstage. Her eyes are wide when she looks down at me dying and I’m reminded ...
... into things you attempt to do. You can expend 1 Strength to re-roll a check or a roll in a Conflict. This Strength is gone once spent and does not count as Strength spent for accruing DP. PROCTECTOR You’ve been raised or trained to keep an eye out for those younger or less capable than you. Gain Strength from any Conflict in which you are in the company of a Child ally. ...
.... If my body were performing the gymnastics that mind my did to justify these purchases, I'd be in the best shape of my life. So let it be said that I have a... resolute interest in: 1. Not accruing more stuff. 2a. Using the stuff I have already, or 2b. Gifting, Craiglisting, or donating what I am unlikely to use. It doesn't help that I'm now the proud owner of a house, which is essentially a ...
... new people. My colleagues are already good friends (my friend S who I have mentioned previously will effectively be my supervisor), so I know I'll be working with people I love. I get more money, a car, life & health insurance, and they'll pay for my phone & internet expenses :) I'll also be flying a lot, and therefore accruing frequent flyer points. WIN WIN WIN! 2010 is going to be AWESOME!
