Under current plans, the casks of nuclear waste material awaiting burial at could be sent into a "chaotic melee of bouncing and rolling juggernauts" in an earthquake, according

Posted on May 7th, 2008 2:14 pmFolks, brace yourselves. This 911 call is anything but Vanilla… ummm, Ice. Bad jokes aside, a bizarre call was placed to a police dispatcher April 10 after alleged rapper Vanilla Ice allegedly kicked and hit his wife Laura.This call - obtained by TMZ - can be listened to here.Vanilla Ice is a bit past his prime, and is experiencing personal issues as well. Halfway through, Laura Ice (probably not her name, but that’s what we’re calling her) starts talking to the 911 operator like he’s a couples counselor!It’s hilarious, albeit a little upsetting. You may recall that Vanilla Ice (real name Robert Van Winkle) ended up being arrested and charged with battery after the aforementioned melee.

To begins Mages obviously do not have the innate capability to do even mentionable physical melee damage. However, this little tips may reveal a way for you to changes that (but not fully). Basically, you went to The Shadow Labyrinth instance. There are some set of mobs that at a certain amount of health, they will sometimes transmute or evolve their selfs to take the form of a great mini magmadar. This was a magical buff, and as so you may cast Spell Steal to capture the buff in two minutes. Now you have like +700 attack power, and attack twice as fast with melee attack. Now, the only way to really make any usage of this is to find melee dps cloth gear? Low, strength and agility! Unfortunately, the best you could find is a cloak, a dagger or a staff to be use.It is not that great for Mage

Mêlée is a pop-rock quartet from Orange County, California.Over the past couple of years, Mêlée has appeared on the Warped Tour and Take Action! Tour, sharing the stage with Copeland, The Donnas, Bowling for Soup, Sugarcult, Motion City Soundtrack and Starting Line, among others. After touring exhaustively and selling 15,000 copies of their 2004 release, Everyday Behavior (Sub City/Hopeless), the band became the subject of a major-label bidding war before inking with Warner Bros. Records A&R chief Craig Aaronson. They have recorded a few videos for some of their songs including "The War" and "Built to Last."The band entered pre-production on their major-label debut, Devils & Angels, with roughly 34 songs in the works. Produced by Howard Benson (All American Rejects, My Chemical Romance, Mae, Daughtry, Papa Roach), Warner Bros. Records released Devils on April 3rd, 2007.The band is managed by Adam Harrison.Mêlée appeared on FOX's This Week In Baseball on July 7, 2007. The

Train wreck singer Amy Winehouse got into another bizarre, bloody fight with her husband after he found her in a hotel “cutting” herself.But just 24 hours later, Winehouse was seen out and about, and claimed that the man she’d just “lost it” on had actually saved her life.Here’s how it went down, according to the UK’s Daily Mail: the songstress, who had left rehab - again - after just a few days and was holed up in the Sanderson Hotel in London, was spotted by photographers walking around London early Thursday with cuts and blood on her face.Her legs and feet were also bloodied, and her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, had cuts all over himself as well.In a series of text messages posted on Perez Hilton, however, Amy explained she was “cutting herself” in her hotel and “after he found me … rightly said I wasn’t good enough for him. I lost it and he saved my life.”Early this morning, at 4:00 a.m. London time, the couple was seen cleaned up and strolling arm-in-arm

Yesterday was pretty hot. We had the door propped open and the fan on, but still... hot. We had about 16 students at class yesterday, had a pretty decent warmup where we jogged, did some drills and some abs. My hip held up pretty well. Got sore from the jogging, but wasn't bad. The only two exercises I didn't do were the leg raises, which put too much strain on my hip right now, and about half of the neck exercises. Those kick my butt. I need to start doing those outside of class to increase my neck strength.Melee was, in Medieval times, the most dangerous and bloody event of any festival or tournament. Far more dangerous than jousting, this was the event where multiple knights would fight each other. Sometimes, these were mobs where it was every man for himself, and others would be divided into two teams. Some people believe that these bloody affairs resulted in Soccer. My opinions of that will have to wait for another post. At yesterday's class, we had our own version

I hate how people are so often neglect common courtesy.  This weekend the family and I went to New Hope, PA for a couple of hours to break up the monotony and seemingly everywhere we went we ran into people who were completely oblivious to anything other than themselves.  Twice I ran into blatant rudeness.  Both times it was when I paused on the sidewalk and was nearly run over by foot traffic.  In one instance I had paused to allow a heavily pregnant teen the opportunity to pass in front of me and in the other I paused to allow a family to take a ph

The Monday Melee is a neat idea that I’ve decided to join in on, at least when I remember to LOL Check it out and join in 1. The Misanthtropic: Name something (about humanity) you absolutely hate. The apparent capability to harm your own child. Yes, it’s awful when someone harms a child - any child. But the simple IDEA that someone could hurt the child that they CREATED - mistreating them, hurting them, killing them - drives me batty. I simply cannot fathom it. 2. The Meretricious: Expose something or someone that’s phony, fraudulent or bogus. Supermodels. What exactly is so super about them? 3. The Malcontent: Name something you’re unhappy with. At the moment, I’m unhappy with myself for not having any self-control recently. 4. The Meritorious: Give someone credit for something and name it if you can. My hubby, for getting up and going to work every day, in a field he doesn’t enjoy, even on the days he knows are gonna suck, and doing it simply beca

Fracas’ The Monday Melee for April 30, 2007 1. The Misanthtropic: Name something (about humanity) you absolutely hate. I hate it when people pretend to be your friend and then talk (in a negative way) about you or your family behind your back. Just grow a spine and say it to my/our face. 2. The Meretricious: Expose something or someone that’s phony, fraudulent or bogus. Tandy Anderson. Blech. Her comments praising model Marianne Berglund for her emaciated figure, while chastising model Jen Hunter for being too fat (though Jen looks fabulous) raised a lot of fuss. In fact, they prompted fracas to create the Thinspiration Petition. I think, given what Tandy herself looks like (as shown here), it’s clear that she’s a big phony. Yes, I know… she isn’t a model herself, only an agent. My poi

Fracas’ The Monday Melee for April 23, 2007 1. The Misanthtropic: Name something (about humanity) you absolutely hate. I really hate it when people believe that having more formal education than someone else actually makes them smarter or superior to someone else. Hey.. I happen to know some really cool people who are self-taught in their field, and who totally kick the asses of more “educated” people. 2. The Meretricious: Expose something or someone that’s phony, fraudulent or bogus. I know a few fraccers who will be pleased that this Monday, I’m choosing to name (and link) to Michael Moore as my pick for a big phony. See Michael Moore documentary sheds light on his controversial filmmaking tactics 3. The Malcontent: Name something you’re unhappy with. The fact that I have to get my ea

Fracas’ The Monday Melee for April 16, 2007 1. The Misanthtropic: Name something (about humanity) you absolutely hate.  (Lack of manners) Spitting. It’s a disgusting thing to do  regardless of whether you’re a male or a female. Every person who spits/gobs/hocks up a loogie in public would just as likely be grossed out were someone (they considered to be less kempt than themselves) to spew a wad onto their shoes… so what makes them think theirs is any less offensive to someone other than themselves? “Saliva carries many easily caught diseases including tuberculosis, flu, encephalitis, meningitis and hundreds of cold bacteria. Lethal viruses can incubate and spread to other individuals who contact the spit in its slimy liquid form. Pneumonia, bronchitis, asthma and some communicable childhoo

The last thing I expected to report from the Writing Today conference was that I was lured into a public SMACKDOWN over the value of blogs and blogging by Richard Schickel, film critic for Time magazine and author of many movie-related books. Mr. Schickel gave the keynote speech during Friday’s lunch. There was a moment of silence during the invocation before his speech, and I prayed the words I customarily pray before I give a presentation because I was scheduled to talk in the afternoon session. I asked God to guide me in my choice of words, for wisdom and self-restraint, and then I prayed that God provide anything else I needed that I’d forgotten to specifically request. That’s my spiritual-legal catchall phrase I tack on just before the Amen which provides an extra dollop of comfort. Thus armed with the Holy Spirit, I sat back as Mr. Schickel was introduced. I was gobbling up both my rice pilaf and his words because I’ve been reading and enjoying his movi
