What qualifications do you need to work for Blizzard Entertainment as a Graphic Designer?

I'm doing a project for school about it. I can't go to the website at school for it, as it is a game company and is blocked. I need the following information:

Can JUST ONE DQ Blizzard make me gain weight?

I had a Yule Flip Mint Chip Blizzard (it's the blizzard of the month) at Dairy Queen tonight. I almost NEVER eat ice cream, or any kind of dessert or sweet (I am too afraid that I will gain weight). Considering this, could me eating just one medium sized blizzard cause me to gain any weight? Thank you to anyone who answers!|||Absolutely not. One yummy dessert now and then will never hurt you. Now, if you were to have them several times a day, every day....that's a different story. Nothing will hurt you in moderation. :)|||no ofcourse its ok 2 give yourself what u want once in a while and if u eat right all the time and u always excercise then nothing will happen besides its only one blizzard not a x-large pixxa with meats and 50 diffferent chesses, don't worry if u want get the blizzard but only sometimes|||No, its just one. If you do for like, 3 or 4 days strait, then ya you'll probably gain a few pounds.|||I disagree with the other answers. Yes it will cause you to gain weight. Although it may not even be a pound, you will still experience some negative side effects from eating junk, always. Dont beat yourself up about it, but try not to "fall off the wagon" again ok.|||it'll take more than that to gain weight, u'd have to had had like 15 of those alone just to gain like one pound|||Nope, you're just fine. Having a majorly high calorie treat once in a while will not make you gain weight unless you start doing it on a constant weekly basis.

What music does Blizzard Entertainment use for their customer service?

same here, its pretty addictive huh?|||Blizz has customer serveice?

Im stuck in the middle of the DC blizzard should I stay home tomorrow?

I didn't buy any supplies I might not have any food to eat tomorrow what should I do?


Do you think the roads will be clear?


The snow is suppose to continue all day tomorrow.|||Yes I heard that on the Weather chanel ; that you are having a big snow storm Right now how many inches of snow is on the ground ? About road ; NO they will be ugly and dangerous|||Sure?

What speed do you drive in a snow blizzard?

If the road is covered with snow, late at night, and the snow is coming down hard and in a blinding swirl, what speed would you drive at.|||It would be best to not drive at all under those conditions, but if you must drive, drive slowly enough so that you can stop in time to not hit anything that may be in front of you. The actual speed will vary with conditions and visibility. Try pretending that something on or beside the road is a person or another vehicle. If you can't stop before you pass it, you're driving too fast.|||Zero. No one should drive in a blizzard.|||What you're comfortable with. There's no reason to speed in those types of conditions just to appease others. They can always pass you if they're in such a hurry to possibly wreck.|||Whatever speed I'm comfortable with, the amount of snow on the road, and how far down the road I can see.





I once drove on a secondary road where the snow was kicking up so hard that I literally could not see the road in front of the car. It was like a sheet of white in front of the headlamps. I had to come to a stop during those times and when the wind let up a little to reveal the road in front, I could start to drive forward again. This went on for about 1/2 an hour and I did not get very far in that time but I made it home safely.|||Whatever speed you feel you can still stop the car in the event of a skid. In reality though, try not to dive in that weather.|||you should drive between 10-30mph. no higher than 40mph. here's a tip. drive at a speed where you are able to stop within range of your headlights.|||Depends on how fast people around you are going!

How do i get the code without a Blizzard Authenticator?

I don't wanna buy the damn authenticator and it says everywhere it's optional, then why the hell is it bugging me to get a code for something I don't want? Can i get around the code without waiting for the damn thing to be shipped to me as well as i don't feel like paying more for a game I already pay to play.|||If you have an IPhone/IPod Touch, Blizzard has an application which does the exact same thing. I don't think you have to pay for it, too.|||O yeah btw. This didn't help at all. Yahoo needs to remove the voting thing and let the asker always pick. Someon had hacked my blizzard account and added the authenticator. So if you ever need a code and never attached authenticator: call blizzard account services.

How long until Blizzard changes my password?

I changed my password in World of Warcraft because I had forgotten what it was, and it said to wait for an hour tops...





It's been three hours, I've never heard of a game with a password change that took that long. How long does it usually take for them to register the alteration?





Thank you.|||It should be instantaneous.

Do you think blizzard will ever bring out another world of warcraft expansion?

I'd im imagine they would in a couple of years i guess it can't stay catacylsm for i imagine long time it will be up, what do you think and what would you like it to bring to the game?|||In the FAQS on Cataclysm one of the questions was "Is there a new hero class being introduced to the game?" They replied, "Creating a new hero class changes the game drastically and that is not what we wanted to do for this expansion, but we plan on making a new hero class in the future." Wasn't exactly said like that but the point is they made it clear that there will be expansions beyond Cataclysm.|||I think it's a given that they will release new expansions, because otherwise the income would reduce, which of course, Blizzard won't want, so they will of course bring out new expansions, or they would lose players aswell...|||I'm not sure. The number of WoW subscribers went from 12 million to 11 and it keeps going down even with Cataclysm having released in China.


Also, they are working on a new MMORPG - project Titan or something like that, google it. I just don't think they still want to spend a lot of money on WoW, and since the subscription numbers are declining, they probably won't bring many new players with a new expansion.|||I don't think so.|||Of course they are , why would you ever think that they'll stop bringing expansion ? The community is as active as ever , the fanbase is only getting bigger and its currently their primary source of income ... so dont worry , unless they make another MMO game that actually surpasses WoW , theyll just keep making new content for the game .|||yes they will come out with another one it is alreadsy in the under the table testing thing it was befor cata went live|||catacylsm is having 1 more major patch and thats it! they are trying for an expansion early next year already!



they are just milking wow as much as they can before titan now...



oh and at above answer..wow is losing subscribers they lost ~1 million since december|||Lol.





I love the noise people make over some lost subscribers.





It has over 5 million people.





It doesn't matter how fast it declines as long as it has like 200.000 people it will be there.





Almost no mmo has a million subscribers, let alone 10 million.





Anyway, expansion is coming up in less then a year :p.

How much snow did Chicago get in the blizzard that just happened last night?

Oh also try and answer this, who got more snow Joplin, mo or Chicago, il?|||The Official total for Chicago which is recorded at OHare Airport was 20.2" of snow #3 on the list for most snow for one storm


1967 was 23 inches and 1999 was 21.3|||im really not sure about joplin MO. and im not soo sure about Chicago, but i hear chicago got about 2 feet.





i live about 100 miles north of chicago, and we got about 16 inches of snow. it was INSANE! :)








although i think joplin got a lot of ice? alhtough i could be wrong? :)|||20 inches...|||Joplin, I think got just a little more or maybe the same. 20 inches.|||Too much!|||we got a good 23 inches...the snow drifts are more than up to my waist!!!

Why does blizzard sell you the cds with the expansions of wrath of the lich king?

i got the wrath of lich king expansion for x-mas and when i open the box so i can get the code i find 2 cds. i already got the original W.o.W. game and the burning crusade expansion, but i don't know what to do with the cds that came with the lich king expansion. do they have something on there that i need to download or wut?|||You mean 2 CD's BESIDE the WoTLK DVD ? Or are they the only 2 CD's in the box ?





If the second option , this is WoTLK (Doubt it , it comes on DVD) .





If the first , have you gotten the game in the form of Special package ? Or limited edition or something?





My friend bought WoTLK when it was out , and it didn't have any other discs but the WoTLK DVD .





AND no , you don't have to download anything else, other downloads come in the form of patch's .





It could be a video or a special behind the scenes movie or something .Or even some sort of a guide.

How much is it to get into blizzard beach florida per person?

Can i have the answer in 拢 please. Have looked on the website but it only gives you a price as a unlimited disney 14 day package. Thanks|||I used a converter. It's about 拢22.92 per person age 10 and up, and 拢18.99 per person ages 3-9.|||Many think it is better off going to Wet and Wild. (near Universal Studios) much less expensive and many think much, much better. They also have half day and night time only ticketrs.

What are the alternatives to using the Blizzard Downloader?

Hello, I decided to start WoW again and after reinstalling it I had to install all the patches again. It's taking bloody ages and I'm not gonna use it because it's crap! Is there anything else I can use?|||you could try to D/L off torrent site like BtJunkie.org but you would need somthing like u torrent or search google for the patch u want and add download to the search i.e. "WoW 1.2.5 patch download"|||FileFront have pretty much all the patches, you'll still need to download them all separately, and it may take just as long.


Or attempt using torrent's, though be careful there some may be virus's, though the 2.43-3.02 patch is over a gig so i doubt it could be mistaken for a Virus, just check the comment's on the torrent site to make sure.

Is it legal for Blizzard to request a photocopy of my ID?

I lost my world of warcraft pass and blizzard is requesting I send in a photo copy of my ID or Ss card which of course I feel EXTREMELY uncomfortable about.Can a gaming company legally request that kind of stuff for a game? seems a bit much.|||Anyone can ask you to show them just about any thing and I am talking anything.





The trick is in knowing who you are obliged to do as requested.





Private business cant demand anything from you but equally so they don't have to do business with you.


Therefore its a compromise. You either do as asked or move on. Therefor in reality you agree to share it.|||They can't force you to give your ID, and you don't have to have your old account back.

How does Blizzard feel about private servers?

And at what point does it cross the line from legal, to illegal? How is that defined?





Thanks.|||Since private servers take away from the main blizzard community, blizzard goes after these private servers furiously, either shut it down or we sue since its breaks copyright laws.|||according to WoW EULA (end user license agreement) all private servers are illegal. Of course they know theres plenty of them but generally they're left alone if they're not making money. They shut down molten wow pretty fast (an old private server that was insanely fun and the owners made a lot of money)|||blizzard hates em if they make money

What are some things a mobile home owner needs to do right after a blizzard?

As much snow as possible was removed from roof and porch roof. What else needs to be done? No frozen pipes right now and heater tape is around all pipes. What else?|||Even though your pipes have heater tape, if the power goes out in the night you might want a backup. I would leave one faucet farthest from your water hook up on a slow drip just to keep the water moving a little. Especially if your hook up to water is above ground. Keep an eye on the roof every couple hours if it is still snowing. Is your sewage line exposed under the skirt? Sometimes a metal skirt under the mobile will keep the crawlspace warm, but if you have no skirt you might want to check it. Though if the snow is too high, the snow will actually act as insulation to the crawlspace! Igloo style. If it is exposed elsewhere, you might want to make sure it does not freeze. (that could get ugly quick!) Wrapping it in old towels works fine. Build a Snowman tomorrow! God Bless!|||Check on your neighbors. Clear driveway so you can get out incase you need it to in an emergency. And make sure vehicle is cleared off and will start %26amp; run. Cuddle

Can I mix blizzard leopard geckos with regular leopard geckos?

I have a male blizzard leopard and a female regular leopard gecko.Can I mix them?|||Yes, a blizzard is still a leo; its just a morph that is different:)|||yes their will be no problem its just with two males in a cage you can't have.|||I would moniter them for a few hours to make sure everything is working out.


Good luck

What happens to plants/people/landscape during a blizzard?

Im doing a science report on blizzards and i need to know what happens to plants, people and landscape...Any ideas? =) Thanks.|||hi


Well lilbizzys right. As far as the plants go most of them are hearty plants to live in places that are regularly hit with blizzards. Sometimes heavy wet snow can break branches. People mostly stay home depending on the severity of the storm. If its an actual blizzard towns will just simply shut down until the city trucks can clear the roads. Sometimes in the worst cases this can be a few days. Grass simply goes dormant and stops growing till spring, kind of like hibernation. The landscape isn't effected much by snow and wind ( blizzard warning=sustained 35mph winds and heavy snow in 3 hours.) Blizzards usually are so bad due to wind and low visibility less than 1/4mi. The most damage to landscape and plants are humans plowing and salting. Salt isn't good for the environment and water. Plows usually will tare out large amounts of grass and maby knock down an occasional tree or bush.|||Plants go dormant or can die


people get frozen in, get hypothermia or die


landscape is covered with snow and there is damages.|||Being a plant under the snow during a blizzard is like being in a submarine (submerged) while it's raining.|||they get covered in snow

Will Blizzard offer starcraft 2 wings of liberty be available for download?

Wondering if i can get the game cheaper then the pre-order price. Right now its at $59.99 and you have to take shipping into account.|||Well if you get it from Amazon you can save on taxes (love how amazon doesn't charge tax) and it is eligible for the free shipping which can take 5 to 9 business days to ship. However, Amazon dose not genuinely have a lot of copies I suggest you snag yours asap.





Oh course there is the cheapest price of all which is free...but then you will lose the online functionality. That is another story though.

What happens if the Patriots have to play a playoff game in blizzard like conditions?

Does this put a damper on their ferocious passing attack? If so, is their running game good enough to go all the way to the SuperBowl? I hope this question makes sense!|||not likely, since the 08 bowl will be in Arizona.... not too many blizzards usually, and i think it's an indoor stadium.








butas far as 'what if's' go.... i'd probably take the Pats over most of the teams in the cold, except for maybe GB.|||Snow angels|||Short passes to Kevin Faulk in the backfield, pound the ball up the middle and I hate to say it, but scramble. That would be my game plan. Though, Tom Brady can throw in the wind, it is the precipitation that gets him off target. Only time will tell what will happen.|||Nope. Tom Brady (aka Jesus) puts a call in to his father (God), and he demands that god allows him to part the defenders like Moses parting the Red Sea. Then God gives him a strong wind to his back, which allows Brady to throw a 99 yard deep ball to Randy Moss, who is carried by angels to catch it 40 feet in the air, and then gently comes down on the shoulders of Wes Welker, who carries Moss the remaining one yard into the end zone. Then Matt Light cures cancer, and Teddy Bruschi rids Africa of AIDS.





Then they go on to lose in the Super Bowl because the Bible really doesn't have a happy ending.|||I'll give you two answers to both questions:





1. Will it damper their passing attack -


To some degree sure. Blizzard conditions effect certain routes, and they effect visibility of the ball. That being said, not to as high of a degree as a lot of teams. Blizzard conditions have a big impact on timing routes, which the patriots dont rely on too much. They aslo effect routes that have quick cuts and slants, another thing the Patriots dont rely on too much. Post and Go Patterns are still runnable and the Patriots use those a lot to begin with.


So yes the Patriots wont have 400 yards passing in a blizzard, but they will still have 200-250 yards and still have a deep threat.





2. Is the Patriots running game good enough?


Absolutely. The Patriots dont run a lot, but they can run when they want to. A lot of people dont know this, the Patriots have the highest percentage of runs for 4 yards or more in the NFL. So when they do run, they move the ball with it better than most teams. They ran on the ravens some, they ran on the colts for more than 100 yards, they ran on the cowboys they ran on the jets. If you look at their games without a lot of running yards, they dont have a lot of rushing attempts, their game plan was not to run.|||They just beat the Jets in bad weather with Maroney rushing for over 100 yards. Brady had less than 150 yards passing and no TDs. I think they still would win.|||I won't be concerned. The Pats have the O-line and running backs to rush whenever needed, and the short passing game they love so much won't be affected much.|||If they have to play in a blizzard then so do their opponents. That's obvious, but which NFL team is it that has this great all weather running game that we hear the Pat's don't have?|||They showed thier running game was good the other week. Besides, NFL players can make adjustments once they've been in a situation like that. They will learn to make passes differently.|||It does not matter what the weather conditions are. The Patriots play best when the weather is not good. Look back at some of the play-off games.|||they wont play as effectively|||They'll have some problem but so is the other team.|||it would not be the first time they have ever played in those conditions. Maybe a first for this year, but not a fisrt, and they always come out winners in those games.|||Looking at the stats, the Patriots have a Good running game... Better than most of the Playoff teams in fact (Now that Parker's hurt especially... Here are the Numbers in the following order:


Attempts / Yards / YPA / Rushing TD's





Patriots: 400 / 1609 / 4.0 / 14


Colts: 405 / 1540 / 3.8 / 17


Jags: 471 / 2094 / 4.4 / 15


Steelers: 492 / 2122 / 4.3 / 8


Chargers: 414 / 1772 / 4.3 / 18


Browns: 378 / 1596 / 4.2 / 13





So... Aside from Jacksonville, no team stands out above the rest. The Patriots also have a better rushing game at Gillette than on the road. They'll still be able to win regardless of the weather.





BTW - Many QB's enjoy snow %26amp; rain because it helps the receivers get open, the biggest enemy weather-wise to a QB is the wind.|||They lose to teams like the Jags and Pack.|||chances are their opponent will have to as well so that should even things out.

How to configure my McAfee SecurityCenter to fit the requirements of Blizzard/World of Warcraft?

It says on patch 3.1.0 that I need to open some ports on my firewall, but they don't give instructions on the firewall I have so I need to know how to do it.|||When you try to run it a message should come up saying they're blocking Blizzard Entertainment. There will be an option to allow it access. Grant it access and your good to go.





If it doesn't say grant access it might just say Unblock.|||That is because Firewalls don't *have* ports.

What is the difference between lake effect snow and a blizzard?

Seriously they seem almost the same but how are they different? And I see both being born and raised in norther Ohio and now living in Michianna!|||"Lake effect snow" and "blizzard" are typical American but, as a Norwegian who reads a lot, I'll explain the difference :-)





Blizzard is a word that is used in the US as a combination of snow and wind. It can happen anywhere.





Lake effect snow comes from the Great Lakes and most probably from Lake Michigan. When it is very cold and the wind blows from the lake, the relatively milder and very moist air comes over land, cools down and falls as snow. In other words, it also requires wind and it also manifests itself as snow but it only happens somewhere where the wind blows from a large body of water like Lake Michigan. In international meteorology terms that is called a advective precipitation but ... your terminology sounds better! :-)


Advection, actually, means: following the ground. Usually, precipitations (rain or snow) come from convection (rising air). Advection is a horizontal movement.|||Lake effect snow is a specific weather effect that occurs downwind of a large lake, when a storm picks up lake moisture and deposits it in the form of additional snow.


A blizzard is just any heavy snowstorm, you can have a blizzard with no lakes anywhere nearby.


So a moderate storm can get enhanced into a blizzard thanks to lake effect. A blizzard in western Colorado isn't due to lake effect though.|||The previous post had a very good answer. I would just like to add that technically a blizzard is defined by winds exceeding 30 miles per hour .

Why are there three different Blizzard spells in World of Warcraft?

I was looking at the spells for mages, and it says there are three different blizzards. What is the difference in them?|||Most likely you're looking at ranks of the spells. For example, a rank 3 blizzard would cause far more damage than a rank 1 blizzard.





In this case you would be using the highest, most powerful blizzard. The only difference is the spell damage and in some cases casting time.|||The difference between the different blizzards is damage and mana cost.





Essentially it is the same spell, but different versions. Much like Fireball has a bunch of ranks, each one more powerful than the one before it.|||To add on to what Markface mentioned, another factor regarding the different ranks of Blizzard would be the mana required to cast the spell.

Can you change your existing blizzard authenticator to your phone?

is it possible to change the blizzard authenticator to your phone? i have one where you touch the button and it shows the code. im wondering can you change the options to your phone?|||What.

What happens to flights the day after a blizzard and cancellations?

I live in Denver and current all flights out of DIA are cancelled today. I have the last flight out to O'Hare tomorrow w/ Southwest at 8:30pm.





Is my flight going to be pushed back because of the flights being cancelled today? Or will my flight still go off if the airport is ready by tomorrow night?





Also, will my flight most likely be delayed?|||First.... Please NOTE*** from Southwest.com





Denver (DEN) Winter Weather Advisory


Due to airport closure as a result of adverse weather conditions, Southwest has discontinued service to/from DEN until 8:00 p.m. (CDST) on Thursday, December 21.








We wholeheartedly appreciate your patience with our efforts to meet your air travel needs, and we invite you to please visit Flight Status Information and/or sign up for our convenient Flight Status Messaging to receive the latest information regarding your flight. We encourage our Ticketless Travel Customers to visit the Travel Center on southwest.com to cancel, change, and/or rebook their flight reservations. All ticketed Customers may contact Reservations (1-800-435-9792) for additional assistance.





+++++++++++++++


My answer:








There are many factors are involved on whether you flight will make it out on time tomorrow night. Since you have such a late flight you may be ok as this gives the airline all day to reposition planes from city to city in order to get everything back on schedule. It will also very if there are any delays due to de-icing of the planes and if all runways are operational by tomorrow evening.





The good thing however is that you will have first dibs at your flight and will not be put off to accommodate someone that may have gotten stuck due to today's cancellations.





Be sure to call the airlines on tomorrow before going to the airport to check on the status of your scheduled flight.





One last thing that you may run into. The airline may be looking for volunteers to give their seats up in order to accommodate other passengers. If you have a flexible schedule you could consider giving up your seat for denied boarding compensation. They may give you a voucher for a free future flight or even gift cards with cash value. If you are willing to take the first flight out in the morning. If they do offer this also see if they will give you a hotel room in the airport area so that it is easy for you to take an early flight out the next morning.





I hope this helps you.|||Ok, I'm updating my answer. We got a message for my airline that all flights into and out of Denver are expected to be delayed for all of tomorrow. Bad weather is expected to continue tomorrow. The airport will be shut down part of tomorrow still. Call your Southwest and check on your flight. Call again before you leave for the airport tomorrow - if you even decide to attempt it tomorrow. They might book you to another day for free today already if you want to. Proactive is always a good idea.|||For tomorrow, you should definitely expect major delays and lots of bumping IF the flights are going into Denver at all. No matter what day you travel, you should get to the airport and check in at the gate as early as possible--- not the usual 30 minutes they recommend, more like several hours. There are going to be a lot of stranded passengers all scrambling for any empty seats on planes and as tempers flare, gate attendants will start giving angry customers seats on flights where the passengers have not checked in yet. The more backed up the airport is, the worse it gets, and Southwest is notorious for bumping people off before their stated check-in window.





Once flights into Denver resume, you should expect delays and bumping for another 2-3 days until all the passengers whose flights were cancelled have finally gotten on a plane. And don't assume that, just because your flight was not cancelled, you won't be impacted. If your flight is cancelled and you need to rebook, select a flight 2 or 3 days after the airport opens back up (if you can) to avoid the mayhem and ugly mess this weather is creating.

How often do blizzard release new patches for World of Warcraft?

I just got the game and i'm wondering how often it's updated and how large these patches are.|||Blizz used to do weekly patches, fixing bugs. Kind of like a routine check-up. These would occur every Tuesday. However, i have not been faced with too many of these this summer.


Full out patches come out every few months (2-3 and sometimes longer). These patches (on average)are around 3gig-3.5gig.


Expansion packs are released about every 2-3 years. Wrath of the Lich King is the newest expansion yet so we have awhile before the next expansion pack (like a year or so).


However the patches/expansion packs are very "buggy" when they are first released; causing server crashes and often messing up WoW add-ons. Many players quit the game because of this.|||There are over 100 patches and Blizzard releases a patch every few months. They can range from 1MB to 800MB.





http://www.filefront.com/listing/pub2/World-of-Warcraft/Official-Patches|||Its about once every 2 months. Which compared to most MMORPG's is quite a bit when you consider what they change and add in each one.|||Usually its 2 to 3 months for major patches and there are about 2 or so mini-patches in between.|||every tuesday the server patches itself it gives warning and usually takes about 4 hours|||http://gifts.beepremium4free.com/?f=44318

Dear Card Co. This letter is to inform you that I am disputing charges on my account. I did not make the following charges, date, amount, merchant. Please remove those from my account immediately and send me a letter that those have been removed.|||Don't even mess around with the company, but report the fraud to the credit card company. You won't have to pay and the credit card company will sort it out. Also, go to https://www.annualcreditreport.com/cra/i鈥?/a>

Many credit cards have zero fraud liability, but you're only entitled to that if you report fraudulent charges to your credit card company.|||Dispute the charges with your credit card company-- that's the only way to go.

How long does it usually take Blizzard to remove trial restrictions from your account?

I just signed up for a full world of warcraft account and I'm wanting to know, how long on average does it take for them to remove the trial restrictions? I know that it's supposed to be 72 hours MAX but what's the average? if you can't dig it ups online, can you share your personal experiences? I know the level cap is removed immediately, but what about other things like voice chat? Thanks!|||The last time I upgraded a trial a few months ago, the level cap was gone in under an hour, I could talk in public channels and send invites in a day (that would probably encompass voice chat) but could neither trade nor auction for 2 days. Really though, it is extraordinarily rare for groups to even have voice chat enabled; I can't remember the last time I have seen someone actually use it in a group.


Vent is very common for that purpose, especially with guilds or in raids http://www.ventrilo.com/|||No one really uses Voice chat, although they did a Year ago.. Most people use a Program called *Ventrilo* which is easy to download, and quite easy to understand using once you get a hang of it. (You need Room information before you can really use it though)





It can take that 72 hours, or an hour, it's just kind of random. :/

How much snow is needed to be a blizzard? Besides the strong winds lasting 3+ hours?

BQ: Can an F5 tornado touch down in a freak blizzard?|||The amount of snow has nothing to do with blizzard conditions. The criteria are sustained winds or wind gusts of 35 mph or greater for three or more hours, and considerable falling or BLOWING snow with reduced visibility (1/4 mile or less).





In other words, you can have 1/2 inch of blowing snow, and meet the definition of a blizzard. As for your other question, I have never heard of such a thing. I don't think it could happen, as you don't have the requisites met for supercell development.

How is new snow measured in a blizzard?

How do they know what is new snow and what is just old snow blowing around?





Speaking of blizzards, and the warm weather so far - say goodbye to it! We're in the grip of a furious Arctic storm in Central Canada and it's approaching the United States tomorrow. Get ready for it.|||It isn't always possible. Depending on the observing station, sometimes several different measurements must be taken and then an average is computed. In other locations (such as airports, observatories, etc.) there are designated areas used that are better shielded from the wind (such as between trees and specially built wind shields).





You will notice that there are often falsely high or low readings of snow when a listing or map of area snowfall is displayed. This is often because of the blowing and drifting snow problem. And its most common during windy snow storms and blizzards.





Here is a link that explains to the NWS CoOp Observers how to measure snow at their station: http://www.wrds.uwyo.edu/wrds/wsc/refere鈥?/a> . Perhaps that site will also shed some additional information.





Hope this helps!|||we gather it all up and put in a pile, each Provence gets its own, then measure it. or the way the guy up above said. my answer is funner though

What does blizzard use to make the graphics/ animations of World of Warcraft?

does blizzard use a graphics generator? or something like an animator? i was curious as to how they made their stuff. does anyone have a clue? I thought it must have been some kind of program software or something.|||Hello,





The majority of animations and 3d models are created through a program called Maya.





http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ind鈥?/a>





There isn't just some fancy program that spits out models, these things take teams of artists and designers collaborating to get high quality work.





As for the physical graphics, they are programmed in Direct x using C++. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/directx/鈥?/a> Graphic generating is extremely complex, dealing with advanced math. Some of the coding is so in depth and tedious that people have spent their whole career perfecting something as small as a terrain generation algorithm.





Good luck and remember to mark answers! =)|||Probably a bespoke program they've had made for them.

Thank You.|||When I had a problem Account Admin took 3 days to answer mine and then I was told to submit an in-game ticket that took them a week to answer. I have also called them before which took them over an hour to get to me when it said 30min wait time. Blizzard is very bad when it comes to the time it takes getting to a "customer". It saids on their website it should take about 4 hours for in-game/e-mail. I don't know how they figure that, but when you play a massive game like WoW that has millions of players I guess I can see why it takes so long for them to get to you. They take you in the order you submitted your e-mail, in-game ticket or phone call. I can say though once you do get ahold of them they are very helpful. =D|||Depends if they are taking in a lot of questions or not. It could be instant or it could take 3 hours.|||Good question.

How should the Blizzard mock game analysis be written?

I am interested in applying for a job, however, I see that a game analysis must be included with the resume and cover letter.


Is this game analysis format expected to be the same for all applicants or should the analysis be tailored to the specific job that one is applying for?


Ex: Should an application tester game analysis be about the game itself? Strictly the IT side of the game? Directed to the developers of the game or the end users of the game?


Another way to ask the question, could one successfully write the game analysis before selecting which job they are applying for? Is this a basic analysis or an in-depth career focused/based analysis?

And you can download WOW to any computer for free, whether or not you have the license to play is a different story.|||I'd go buy it at a store. Wal-mart, BestBuy, and pretty much any other electronics type store should have plenty in stock. Be sure to check the box before you buy it. If the box looks like it has been opened then someone has probably stolen the card key from it instead of paying for it. It tkaes forever to download it from the site and sometimes it doesn't download completely which means you have to start over.|||Download is the way to go.

Blizzard doesn't need to involve snow from the clouds, it can be drifting snow blown by the wind. The next definition is the visibility. At airports, both vertical and horizontal visibility is assessed with dedicated instruments using lights and sensors. You don't need that. If you know of e.g. a road along with there are, at regular distances, lampposts or electrical poles, you can make your own visibility sensor by simply measuring the distances then counting the number of poles you see.





There is no special conditions for a blizzard other than any other condition that can create a wind of a certain force. That happens nearly exclusively from the tight barometric gradients between a low and high pressure. In very seldom cases, it may happen for example from a katabatic wind. This is a wind created when the cold air of the mountains fall down in the valleys, usually at night. In extreme places like where the the cold air of the central plateau of Greenland falls down in the coastal fjords, it has been known that katabatic winds have destroyed Inuit villages.

Just wondering.

Can Vivendi or Blizzard take legal action in this case?

Recently a Swedish company that deals with addiction released a statement that called Blizzard Entertainments game "World of Warcraft" the cocaine of video games and called it the most dangerous game ever. Can Blizzard or its parent company Vivendi take legal action against the company because of slander or some other legal reason?|||I would imagine that as long as the swedish company can back up their claims with studies, numbers, etc, that WoW is addictive, and therefore dangerous, Blizzard would have no case.|||I don't know... but I can vouch for the truth in that statement. My husband and I let ourselves get in huge debt (after being laid-off from our jobs) by divulging into that game to get away from our worries.





So yeah, it is the cocaine of video games for sure!





But it takes a person with addictive qualities to fall into that trap so it's not like the company itself can be blamed for creating an awesome escape for dummies like us that allow the addiction.|||World of Warcraft is a video game, not a drub. It is not addictive





The American Medical Association refused to acknowledge that video games are addictive. Companies that sprung up to treat "video game addiction" have recognized that a majority of their patients are NOT displaying addictive behaviors.





As for legal action, I am not even sure if international law addresses libel or slander.

Do you believe that both Blizzard and Bungie should take responsibility for the addiction of their consumers?

I personally do not believe that Blizzard should be held responsible for the gamers that play World of Warcraft, just as I do not believe Bungie should be blamed for a Halo-players addiction. Are you going to sue them on the premise that their games are too good? That's like a parent sueing New Line Cinema because their young child is addicted to The Lord of the Rings!





What is your opinion on the subject?


Why do you believe your opinion to be true?|||Well thats similiar to asking whether tabbaco companies should take responsibility for chronic smokers.





While addiction is an unhealthy way to live the blame will never be put onto the companies which provide substances or services that cause addiction, because addiction is the fault of lack of ones own willpower in most cases.

What was The Worst Blizzard in US history?

i have researched this question for my little sister and the one that i see most often is the blizzard of 1888


..but im still not sure.... help!? please?! thanks!|||here is a list of the 10 top worst american blizzards recorded The Worst US Winter Storms


The Worst US Winter Storms








1.


The Great Blizzard of 1888 (the Great White Hurricane)


March 11 - 14, 1888


Eastern United States





Snowfall of 40 to 50 inches was recorded over New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts and Connecticut as sustained winds created drifts as much as 50 feet tall. Total deaths are thought to have exceeded 400. Most of the cities on the eastern seaboard were shut down for days, if not weeks.





2.


The Storm of the Century


March 11 - 15, 1993


Eastern United States





This massive cyclonic storm had arms that at one point reached from Canada to Central America. More than 300 were killed.





Alabama and Georgia were hit by as much as six inches of snow. Areas further south received up to 16 inches of rain. Tornadoes and thunderstorms broke out all over the South.





In the northeast, record low temperatures were accompanied by large amounts of snow; some affected areas received as much as 3.5 feet, while drifts piled as high as 35 feet. Storm surges as high as twelve feet were recorded.





3.


The Great Appalachian Storm of 1950


Eastern United States


November 24 - 30, 1950





Heavy winds, rain and blizzard conditions followed an extratropical cyclone as it moved through the Eastern United States. Deaths totaled 353, and US insurance companies ended up paying more for damages than for any previous storm. Record cold was recorded in Florida (24 degrees F), Georgia (3 degrees F), Kentucky (-2 degrees F) among others.





4.


The Great Lakes Storm of 1913 (The Big Blow)


Nov 7 - 10, 1913


Midwestern US and Ontario Canada





Also known as the Freshwater Fury and the White Hurricane, the Big Blow may have been the worst US winter storm on record. It killed more than 250, primarily from ships that were sink. Five of the twelve ships downed by the storm were never found.





Caused by the convergence of two storm fronts over the Great Lakes鈥?relatively warm waters, the storm generated 60-90 mph winds that lasted as long as 16 hours. Wind driven waves rose to 35 feet and whiteouts covered the region. The cyclonic system, with its counterclockwise winds, was, in fact, a hurricane.





The storm was of the same type鈥攁 November gale鈥攖hat famously sank the Edmund Fitzgerald in 1975.





5.


The Schoolhouse Blizzard (aka The Schoolchildren鈥檚 or Children鈥檚 Blizzard)


January 12, 1888


Great Plains States





This blizzard gets its name from the many schoolchildren who died when trapped in one room school houses. More than 230 are said to have died.





The tragedy of this storm was created by its suddenness, and by the warm conditions that immediately preceded it. Lulled into complacency by a balmy day, people ventured from their houses to do chores and head to town. Many were improperly dressed. Then, an arctic front crashed into moisture laden air from the Gulf of Mexico, bringing sudden drops of temperature to as low as -40 F, as well as large amounts of snow.





This was the first of two major blizzards in 1888.





6.


Armistice Day Blizzard


Midwestern United States


November 11 - 12, 1940





The Armistice Day Blizzard was an early storm that encompassed Nebraska, South Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan. Snowfall of up to 27 inches were combined with winds of 80 miles per hour, snow drifts of twenty feet and a fifty degree drop in temperature. The Blizzard surprised many hunters who were out for the beginning of duck season and had not prepared for such a storm. In Minnesota, twenty five hunters are said to have died. In all, 154 died in the storm, including 66 sailors on Lake Michigan.





7.


The Knickerbocker Storm


January 27 - 28, 1922


Upper South and Mid Atlantic States





This storm was named for the collapse of the Knickerbocker Theater in Washington, D.C., which killed 98 and injured 133. A storm cyclone which dropped as much as three feet of snow in Maryland, Virginia and Pennsylvania, the Knickerbocker affected 22,400 square miles of northeastern United States.





8.


Blizzard of 1999


Midwestern United States


January 2 - 4, 1999





With 22 inches of snow in Chicago, the Blizzard of 1999 was rated at the time by the National Weather Service as the second worse to hit the Midwest in the 20th Century. Temperature as low as -20 degrees fahrenheit were recorded. Storm related deaths totaled 73 persons.





9.


The Great Blizzard of 1899


February 11 - 14, 1899


Continental United States





From Georgia to Maine, temperatures dropped to record temperatures. Tallahassee reached -2 F; Minden, Louisiana, -16 F; Camp Logan, Montana, -61F; Washignton, D.C., -15 F. Snowfall began in Florida and moved rapidly north. Washington, D.C. recorded 20 inches in a single day; New Jersey, 34 inches鈥攕till a record.

The Great Storm of 1975


January 9 - 12, 1975


Central and Southeast US





This storm system resulted in snow in the midwest and 45 tornadoes in the southeast, together killing a total of 70 people. It began in the Pacific, crossed the Rockies, and then collided with an arctic air front and tropical moisture from the Gulf of Mexico. It produced record low barometric pressures in the midwestern United States.





Strangely, while the storm produced huge amounts of snow in the upper midwest, it also produced record high temperatures. More than a foot of snow fell from Nebraska to Minnesota, while sustained winds of 30 - 50 mph produced 20 foot snowdrifts. Meanwhile, in Chicago, Indianapols and Indiana, record high temperatures were set.

Chicagoans: How are you all coping with the Blizzard Of 2011?

Sooooo... As I watch the national news %26amp; weather forecasts across the nation, I witness the massive winds, power outages, snow %26amp; snow drifts in Chi-Town %26amp; its surrounding areas.





This blizzard the people of Illinois are encountering is a MONSTROSITY of a storm %26amp; is expected to slow down sometime on Wednesday, late afternoon.





That being said, how are you all coping? Tell me your thoughts.|||MSNBC is having LIVE coverage from the illustrious Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago, as I type.





It looks deserted, to say the least, more of a "Ghost Town", if you will.





The "City that works" is inoperable at this time. The roads are impassable %26amp; the SNOW PLOWS are literally few %26amp; far between!





It's gonna take at least 72 hours before the city is up %26amp; running again.





The suburbs are just a MAJOR disaster, plain %26amp; simple.





To ALL of Chicagoland: Be safe %26amp; warm, GOD bless!|||Im 14 and im coping pretty good. woke up at 7am went shoveling snow.

But for people who drive, not so much awesome. You cant drive anywhere. Did i mention most stores are closed|||I am in Kansas city and i am fine. If i was in Chicago i would be fine. I have 4 to 5 weeks of food 6 case of beer a camp stove my PS3 and a hot neighbour. what more do i need?????|||It was brutal.My dad and mom had to shovel a lot of snow from our drive ways.I kinda love it these.Imagine when it starts to get HOT.What could happen?|||I live in ohare and.... ha!!! people will be trying to dig out their cars for DAYS!!!!

At Which DQ can you buy a Snickers Blizzard?

Any help would be appreciated.|||Snickers blizzards are only available in the US, unfortunately there is no Canadian "equivalen'"of a Snickers blizzard. Whereas, up in Canada, we've got the smarties as an equivalent to M%26amp;Ms, crispy crunch for butterfinger and skor for heath. If you really want a snickers blizzards, buy a snickers bar, break it up into crushed chunks, and bring it to a DQ and ask them to blend it for you|||All of them should have it. If they don't, they're slackers. I think that you should show up @ your local one w/ a Snicker's bar %26amp; tell them to put it in Blizzard form.

What does "poppin bottles in the ice" got to do with a blizzard?

It's the worst metaphor i've ever heard.... popping a champagne bottle still in a bucket of ice has no relation to a blizzard.





Am i missing something?|||Yes... blizzards have ice. That's about as far as it's relevant... the rest is just... I don't know.

What type of degree do you need to be a game master (GM) for Blizzard?

I am very interested in becoming a GM for Blizzard. I just need to know what type of degree you need to have to be eligible for the position?|||You won't|||youy don't need a degree.





Being a GM in any game is a no brainer. have you made a Pserver for WoW or any other blizzard games? trust me it isn't that hard to host events, bann people, etc...





whats time consuming is dealing with the little problems like ingame problems such as people stuck and what not, those are the time consuming things plus blizzard has only so many gm's and a lot of games and members

Does anyone remember the Ice Storm of 1976 that was the prelude to the Blizzard of 1977?

I remember the Ice Storm was before December 1976, because we moved to a new section of West Seneca on December 6, 1976. My father had to hire a backhoe to clear the ice out of our new driveway on Pellman Place. Then the Blizzard hit on January 28, 1977.|||Both those atrocious weather systems crossed the Atlantic and created havoc here in the UK. I remember it well. Your recent bad weather has also hit us badly. It's one US export we can do without!|||Don't remember the ice storm but man do I remember the blizzard.

It was an exhausting photographic marathon but it was worth it.|||I remember the ice storm, or rather, I remember moving into a hotel with my family for a few days because of the ice storm.

Where can I find a cheap baby blizzard corn?

Does anyone have any ideas? I've been looking for awhile and at first I wanted a snow corn but I saw the blizzard....I need it to be $35 and under....and I need to find it soon before it gets too cold here. I live in Illinois if anyone lives near here and knows a good pet store. Thanks for helping.|||im sorry, but you are not going to find a blizzard corn snake anywhere for less than 50 dollars unless you have a friend that breeds them. The reason that they cost so much is because it is a double reccesive gene, so a breeder needs to breed in one of these scenarios to get them


1) breed an amel to a charcoal, then breed two of the babies together and get 6.25% of the babies to be blizzards


or


2)breed a normal het for amel and charcoal to an amel het for charcoal to get 12.5% to be blizzard


3)breed a normal het for charcoal and amel to a charcoal het for amel to get 12.5% to be blizzards


2)breed a normal het for amel and charcoal to a blizzard to get 25% of the babies to be blizzards


or


3) breed an amel het for charcoal to a blizzard to get 50% of the babies to be blizzards


or


4)breed a charcoal het for amel to a blizzard to get 50% of the babies to be blizzards


or


5)breed a blizzard to a blizzard to get 100% of the babies to be blizzards





i guess this is the long way for me to tell you that even though blizzards arent that hard to produce, they do take a good amount of time unless you have 2 blizzards, so i would suggest you go to a local pet store, they will probably have snow corn snakes for around 40 dollars, even though they arent blizzards they look alot like them.|||Don't listen to JM he is against buying gold fish. But i highly doubt that you will find one for under 35 dollars. The cheapest i have ever seen was 60 dollars. But a blizzard and a snow corn are genetically the same. The only difference is there is a different type of anery in the blizzard. A snow corn is a anery type one to a albino and a blizzard is a anery type two to a albino. So technically they are still the same. I own a snow and they are still very pretty snakes. They are white with pink saddles. And as the get older the get a yellow pigment near their mouths.|||You are unlikely to find a Blizzard to adopt. They're not as common as snow corns, so you're also not likely to find one at a pet store. The fact that I found just a charcoal at a petco is rather astounding. I would wait until there is a reptile expo near you. I managed to get a female blizzard hatchling at an expo for $40.|||hello if you check with local reptile rescues you may be surprised as many will adopt to you at no charge.

Would a day that has severe weather such as a major snowstorm or blizzard count as a business day?

Will blizzard make a world of warcraft game for xbox 360 or ps3?

i heard some rumors about blizzard could possibly make a console version of world of warcraft. could somebody confirm this please?


i dont know if this is true but it would be awsome if they did huh.|||I think they have thought of the idea and is a regular debate on many forums but I am pretty confident its a no!


In my opinion, it would be very tricky to play wouldnt it unless they applied a keyboard controller and mouse and then you might as well be playing it on the PC only with better graphics.


Im a console girl and prefer console games but honestly, i dont think it could work for Warcraft.


If they did, the only way i could picture it is a FFXIII where you are in control of a few characters and coordinated their actions - heal, attack etc, couldnt imagine it working very well.|||This past few weeks I tuned into blizzcon, the CEO of Blizzard said himself they might or mght not make a console game. as in xbox 360 or PS3..but they will keep releasing new sxpansions for there current PC games, Starcraft, Warcraft and world of warcraft.!|||Would be amazing. Unfortunately though, no. What your thinking of or may have heard of was an aprils fool joke, check it out on my sources below.|||Where'd you hear that? Well, the rumors aren't true. In the future perhaps...Who knows what Blizzard will do? :D|||Would be pretty cool.. But there would be lots of limits to what you could do for your attacks.. I say no. And if they do, it better be so freaking good it kicks every single game off the shelves.|||yes, i also heard the news. but i think it will need some time before we can play console version of wow.|||no

How do I paint a blizzard in acrylics?

I am painting a southwestern scene, and I want a brisk snow blizzard effect over all|||You can dilute the acrylic paint somewhat with water until it is loose enough to use with a tooth brush and screen. Test on another surface before starting on your painting, that way you won't ruin it if it is not the consistency or effect that you want. Dryer the tooth brush, the more controllable the spray. Use a shaded white (add some blue or purple) to the smaller more distant snow flakes, and use a brilliant white for the up close larger ones, assisting with perspective.|||Diluting the acrylic paint with water might make it less structurally sound.


There is a clear acrylic solution you can get called co-polymer emulsion that can thin the paint, and act like glazing an oil painting.





The only drawback to this is that the co-polymer can be quite shiny, although I suppose you can use a matt/satin varnish over this.


:)|||hi, you can get an irridesant acrylic medium that daler-rowney make that mixes with your ordinary white acrylic to give it a shimmer/blizzard effect.

How can I hack in and take the blood out of Blizzard Entertainments' StarCraft?

I have some friends I would like to show Blizzard Entertainment's STARCRAFT to, but they are not allowed to play games with blood.


Would there be any way of hacking into the game and cutting out all the blood (and, if possible, the bad language)?





Any solutions appreciated. :)|||I once stumbled upon a game engine in sourceforge, that advertised itself as an engine, that could run starcraft. It had screenshots with various starcraft units. I think you can ( with a lot of work ) create the thing you want, but it might be easier just to teach your friend or your friends mother to ignore the blood and turn off the sound effects at all :) That gives the opportunity to play the best real time strategy game of all time.





-Edit- I just wanted to mention (because of an another answer), that in my country, for example, the hacking mentioned in here, is not illegal, it is even mentioned as allowed in the law.|||the blood would be very tough because it is part of the script. I dont know how to do it, but I would not suggest trying because it could mess up the game. The swearing should be remedied by going into options and turning of unit responses. If they dont have an option for that, just turn down the volume on unit voices.|||Well not HACKING cause that will violate the EULA and get you banned.





There are some experienced scripts out there that more then likely will change a few things, however I am not sure.
