Im half way thru the Docks and that'll leave just the Blacklake District to do as far as i can see .
Here are my stats as they stand at this time...
Strength 17-3
dex 13-1
Con 16-3
Int 10-0
Wis 10-0
Cha 9-Minus1
.
What does the 2nd number mean with all these stats?

I have taken on board what you have said and i can go down the road of a Fighter/Barbarian so that is just dandy. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
The second number is the actual MODIFIER that is applied from said stat. This is the important number. Your STR for example is good but it should be 18. This will give an extra +1 to hit and damage. i.e. your modifier will be +4 not +3.
Saying that fighters can get away with lower STR as their BAB is very high.
Leave the DEX at 13. Wear full plate mail. You should have no loss in your Barb abilities at all.
Dodge, Mobility, Spring Attack
I never notice much of a benefit from these skills at all. You're a STR brute! Take cleave, great cleave, knockdown and improved knockdown as Hande has already stated. You will have LESS feats as a Barb, you should choose carefully.
Personally I would even take 'Iron will' over dodge. Barbs have UNCANNY DODGE anyway! With a better will save Voleron might not chew you up and spit you out. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
