you the ability Kingsbane which strikes your enemy releasing the poison from inside the blades leaving the target poisoned Every time you apply a lethal poison in a target it increases the damage done by Kingsbane Traits Notable Artifact Traits Blood of the Assassinated Rupture has a chance to infect your target increasing damage dealt by your Rupture by 100 for 10 sec Bag of Tricks Envenom has a chance to smash a vial of poison at the targets location creating a pool of acidic death that deals Nature damage over 6 sec to all enemies within it From the Shadows Declaring your Vendetta unleashes a barrage of poisoned daggers at the target that deal Nature damage over 20 sec Surge of Toxins Finishing moves increase the poison damage the target takes for 5 seconds Empowered Traits New traits explanation Strangler mostly mediocre trait albeit it does get synergy with the T20 tier bonuses and will be acceptable on multitarget Dense Concoction defensive trait of questionable value which seems somewhat counterproductive crimson vial is generally used after damage already gone out while this mitigates incoming damage However rogues are generally the designated soak class so this can be combined with other damage reductions to be a decent damage reduction when timed to line up with last second of the buff Sinister Circulation only new trait we really care about New applications of our Lethal Poisons reduce Kingsbane cooldown greatly increasing the number of times it can be used generally expected to reduce cd down to 30 seconds resulting in 50 more uses Recommended

WPRI 12RWU Poll Raimondo reelection lead grows Whitehouse far ahead PROVIDENCE RI WPRI Democratic incumbent Gina Raimondo has gained an edge in the race for governor as a crowded field and discontent with President Trump hamper her opponents an exclusive WPRI 12Roger Williams University poll released Thursday shows The survey of 420 likely Rhode Island voters finds Raimondo at 43 and Republican Allan Fung at 36 with 9 of voters undecided Republicanturnedindependent Joe Trillo is at 7 and 4 of voters are backing other candidates The previous WPRIRWU poll in late July was significantly closer with Raimondo at 39 and Fung at 37 The headline we see now is Gina Raimondo has actually opened up a lead said Eyewitness News political analyst Joe Fleming who conducts the poll The survey was taken just after Raimondos 24point primary victory over Matt Brown which was a larger win than most political observers had predicted There is no question the primary has given her a bump in the numbers at this point Fleming said Its still early its still a long way to go before the election in November but right now she has pulled away with a 7point lead Raimondo Fung and Trillo are set to meet for their first televised gubernatorial debate in one week on WPRI 12 It will be broadcast live from Roger Williams University next Thursday Sept 27 at 7 pm PDF Read the full September 2018 WPRI 12RWU poll Related Voters back RI leaders on PawSox poll shows In the race for US Senate the poll shows Democratic incumbent Sheldon Whitehouse comfortably ahead of his Republican challenger former RI Supreme Court Justice Robert Flanders The poll finds Whitehouse at 54 and Flanders at 35 with one in 10 voters still undecided Bob Flanders still has to get betterknown Fleming said Hes trying to do that right now with his advertising but again he has to ramp up to spend a lot more money Sheldon Whitehouse has a big financial advantage and if he keeps using that its going to be very difficult for Bob Flanders The landline and cellphone interview poll was conducted Friday Sept 14 through Monday Sept 17 by Fleming Associates of Cumberland Rhode Island The survey has an overall margin of sampling error of plus or minus approximately 48 percentage points Fleming has been conducting polls for WPRI 12 since 1984 Fungs poll numbers have been consistent this year he has had the backing of 36 or 37 of voters in all three WPRIRWU polls conducted since February Fungs current support mirrors the 36 share of the vote he received against Raimondo when they faced off in the 2014 election for governor Allan Fungs numbers are about what theyve been in every poll weve done Fleming said At this point I would be concerned that he cant get his numbers to move if I were a Fung adviser we would have to come up with a plan to move Fungs numbers up to the 40 range Raimondos lead is built on strong support from Democrats 59 to Fungs 21 and female voters 50 to Fungs 30 She and Fung are effectively tied among independents with about 38 each Fung is ahead among male voters 43 to Raimondos 36 but he also appears to be losing votes to Trillo who is capturing 11 of Republicans and 9 of independents I think he cant let Joe Trillo get any higher in the polls Fleming said of Fung If Joe Trillo keeps moving I really think hes taking votes from Allan Fung So I think Allan Fung has to come up with a plan that holds Joe Trillo where he is President Trumps weak standing in Rhode Island is a headwind for fellow Republicans Fung and Flanders as well as for Trillo who was the presidents 2016 campaign chairman in Rhode Island The poll finds 54 of voters think Trump is doing a poor job up from 44 in July while only 31 think he is doing an excellent or good job Nearly half of independents Rhode Islands largest voter bloc give Trump a job rating of poor I think Allan Fung has to try and distance himself Fleming said In some ways the problem he has is if he distances himself from Donald Trump too much those Trump voters who are supporting him have an alternative Joe Trillo Among the other candidates on the ballot for governor Moderate Party nominee Bill Gilbert received 17 independent Compassion Party candidate Anne Armstrong received 14 and independent Luis Daniel Muñoz received 05 Half of voters like Raimondo Fung Trillo underwater Raimondo and Fung are evenly matched when it comes to voters views about them personally Raimondos favorable rating is 50 identical to the previous two WPRIRWU polls while her unfavorable rating is 47 She is viewed favorably by 64 of Democrats and 56 of female voters but only 46 of independents and 43 of male voters Peoples opinions of Gina are set there is not a lot of movement Fleming said About half of the people have a favorable opinion of her almost half have an unfavorable opinion Fungs favorable rating is also 50 down from 56 in the July poll but the same as February His unfavorable rating increased to 35 up from 31 in July and 26 last winter while roughly one in six voters had no opinion Fung is viewed favorably by 52 of independents and 57 of male voters but only 37 of Democrats and 43 of female voters He is at 79 favorable with Republicans Raimondo is on shakier ground when voters assess her firstterm performance The poll shows only 38 of voters think Raimondo is doing an excellent or good job as governor while 27 think she is doing a fair job and 33 think she is doing a poor job Those numbers have changed little over the course of the year There is a significant gender gap with 46 of female voters rating her performance as excellent or good but only 30 of male voters saying the same Raimondos job rating closely tracks voters views on conditions in Rhode Island The poll shows 39 of voters think Rhode Island is headed in the right direction while 42 say the state is moving in the wrong direction There is more optimism among Democrats 52 right direction and female voters 45 than among independents 36 and male voters 33 There has been very little movement since February Fleming said Voters still think Rhode Island is going in the wrong direction but its getting close to breaking even Peoples minds havent changed much in one direction or another Trillo the independent candidate remains unknown to many voters and more disliked than liked among those with an opinion While 21 of voters view Trillo favorably 36 view him unfavorably and 44 have yet to decide what they think about him His net favorability rating is negative among all subgroups Fleming said the televised debates that start next week could be crucial for Trillo just as they were for Moderate Party nominee Bob Healey who surged to 21 in 2014 Youre going to see Joe Trillo in action Fleming said The voters will get a firsthand look for some people it will be the first time people get to see who Joe Trillo is Whitehouse currently edging Flanders with independents In the US Senate race Sheldon Whitehouses lead is built on overwhelming support among Democrats 78 as well as the strong backing of female voters 62 seniors 58 and younger voters 56 He is also slightly ahead among independents with 44 backing Whitehouse and 41 backing Flanders The pair are roughly tied among male voters Fleming said Flanders needs to boost his name recognition quickly if he has any hope of unseating Whitehouse Hes trying to do that right now with his advertising but he has to ramp up to spend a lot more Fleming said Sheldon Whitehouse has a big financial advantage and if he keeps using that its going to be very difficult for Bob Flanders The Whitehouse campaign will try to tie Flanders to Trump due to the presidents dismal job rating in Rhode Island Fleming said though Flanders is already trying to counteract that in a TV spot that suggests he will break with Trump when necessary If you vote for Flanders youll be keeping the Republicans in charge of the US Senate which helps Donald Trump by voting with Sheldon Whitehouse you are taking it out of Donald Trumps hands Fleming said Weve seen the same scenario when Sheldon Whitehouse ran against Lincoln Chafee in 2006 saying that a vote for Chafee was a vote for keeping thenPresident Bush controlling the Senate If it worked then I think hes going to use it again now Fleming added Another boost for Whitehouse he is getting positive reviews for his work in the Senate The poll finds 50 of voters think Whitehouse is doing an excellent or good job as a senator while 17 think he is doing a fair job and 27 think he is doing a poor job Fleming pointed out that 44 of independents give Whitehouse a rating of excellent or good If Im the Whitehouse campaign Im very happy with that number he said Whitehouses numbers have showed improvement since he took office He won his 2006 US Senate race against thenRepublican Lincoln Chafee with 54 of the vote But halfway through his term in January 2010 only 33 of voters rated Whitehouses job performance as excellent or good Two years later in 2012 he won reelection with about twothirds of the vote over Republican Barry Hinckley Ted Nesi tnesiwpricom covers politics and the

State News 7 questions about filing record requests in NC answered Posted March 19 2016 Updated March 20 2016 By Tyler Dukes Raleigh NC See more Sunshine Week coverage Although it typically forms the backbone of the investigative reporting you see from news organizations across North Carolina the states open records law isnt explicitly intended for journalists its really for the public Thats why Sunshine Week a celebration of transparency and open government that ends Saturday is a great time for North Carolina citizens to refresh their knowledge of what they have the right to request from state county university and local officials and what kinds of material counts in North Carolina as a public record Q What qualifies as a public record in North Carolina North Carolina statutes and legal precedent combined take a pretty broad view of public records in the state If its created with taxpayer money it belongs to you There are plenty of exemptions sprinkled throughout the public records law and the rest of the states general statutes personnel privacy and public safety to name a few but the default position most courts have taken is that unless public officials can point to a specific exception they must release what you ask for Even if confidential or protected information is included in the scope of your request it is the record holders responsibility to separate that information out Governments must also bear the cost of that redaction and by law can not charge you for it Such wide latitude to request documents can be a bit daunting But the law itself has a pretty comprehensive list of examples in the very first sentence A few others to consider emails meeting minutes official credit card receipts and call logs should all be open to the public for copying and inspection Q How specific does my request have to be The easy answer and the admittedly evasive one is It depends Theres no real legal requirement to narrow your request in any way at all but its generally accepted that youll have an easier time getting what you want if you tell the agency what youre looking for That might mean limiting an email request to a few specific accounts with a small list of keywords Or asking for agency travel records created during a limited date range Unless you dont want to reveal your motive it can also help to give the agency as much information as possible about what youre looking for That degree of specificity could help a government employee track down a report buried in a file cabinet somewhere or a presentation stored on a workers hard drive Not everyone goes that route though The North Carolina Republican Party in 2015 hit Attorney General Roy Cooper then the presumptive Democratic nominee in the next race for governor with a request for more than a decade of correspondence The North Carolina NAACP meanwhile sent a long rambling request in early 2016 seeking meeting minutes and all information about several topics such as the firing of former University of North Carolina President Tom Ross and the hiring of new President Margaret Spellings It typically helps to be a bit more specific than that Q What information should I include in my request A few simple phrases can make the eventual response to your records request a little easier to manage First ask for access to and copies of records That way if you get guff about the difficulty of making copies you can offer to inspect them during reasonable times and under reasonable supervision in their original location or format such as the basement file cabinet or internal email system If you do want copies specify the format The law says requestors can obtain public documents in any and all media in which the public agency is capable of providing them so its not acceptable for an agency to provide a PDF of say contractor payments when it keeps that record in spreadsheet format I typically add three more sentences to my requests all designed to either speed up the process or provide details I can use to push back against redactions if necessary If applicable please provide these records as they are processed Please notify me in advance of any fees associated with this request If my request is denied in whole or part I ask that you justify all deletions and redactions by reference to specific exemptions in the state open records act Q Do I have to identify myself Government officials are not prohibited from asking your identity when you file your request for public records but you do not have to reveal who you are or why you want the records Q Do I have to be a North Carolina resident No Anybody even residents from outside North Carolina can request records from local county and state government agencies as well as statefunded colleges and universities Although there have been attempts in the state legislature to change this on the grounds that only state taxpayers are entitled to state records theyve so far failed Other states have successfully passed such laws but open government advocates point out that given the amount of federal money that flows through government at almost every level government records are the property of the people without regard to borders Q How many days do public officials have to respond Unlike other states and even the federal Freedom of Information Act FOIA there is no legal requirement prescribed by North Carolina law for government officials to respond in a certain timeframe Instead the standard in this state is as promptly as possible That leaves things open to interpretation and government officials have at times stretched that definition out to a year or more in some cases But when the public record law was rewritten in the 1990s the argument against establishing a time period was that it would extend routine and simple requests for example police reports to the maximum response time dragging out the process even longer Such a prescriptive response time hasnt helped reporters who regularly make use of FOIA requests on the federal level Despite a requirement that officials must respond in 20 business days an Associated Press investigation found requestors routinely wait months or years for records if they receive anything at all Q How much can they charge There are only a few specific things government agencies can charge for when responding to records requests Thats because the general understanding is that these records were created with taxpayer funds because requestors have already paid for them charging again would essentially be doublebilling Agencies may charge for printed copies or for the media CDs thumb drives etc the requestor specifies but that actual cost is limited to the direct chargeable costs related to reproducing the record The McCrory administrations policy for example is to charge 5 cents per page in the case of paper copies 5 cents per copy p 3 View the entire document with DocumentCloud But another part of the administrations policy is more controversial The states public records law allows for a special service charge for requests that require an extensive use of information technology resources or extensive clerical or supervisory assistance That special service charge must be reasonable and based on the actual cost for IT resources or labor This has seldom been used in the past nor is it well defined in the law or in court precedent But the McCrory administrations policy applicable to every cabinet agency is to apply such a service charge to any request that requires four or more hours of clerical or supervisory assistance to fill Special service charge p 2 View the entire document with DocumentCloud The current estimate for that special service charge is 18 an hour Credits Reporter
