"We're about to start our journey to Jupiter to unlock the secrets of the early solar system," said Scott Bolton, the mission's principal investigator from the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio. "After eight years of development, the spacecraft is ready for its important mission." Juno's eight instruments are set to record information about Jupiter's interior, atmosphere and aurora. This information will help NASA scientists understand how the solar system was formed. When Juno reaches Jupiter it will be a whopping 507 million miles from the sun, well past the European Space Agency's Rosetta Spacecraft which will reach 492 million miles from the sun (Rosetta is set to reach that goal next year).
Juno's launch window lasted until August 26th but NASA saw a good chance of the craft taking the leap this morning. The launch was shown live on NASA's live stream located on their website. The rocket had been letting out a steady stream of steam all morning in preparation for its big moment, and we were excited to see this feat of renewable energy engineering set out on a history-making journey. The spacecraft is expected to reach Jupiter by 2016 to commence its investigation of the gas giant.

Shiver me timbers, them's some great infromaiton.

A perfect example of the groundside benefits of space exploration beyond videos of people floating around. Of course, there is nothing inherently 'green' about this mission. In fact, since the Atlas rocket which launches it burns a mixture of Liquid Oxygen and a fuel very close to kerosene, it is considerably more polluting than the shuttle's LOX/hydrogen engines.
However, even though using solar power in space is no more or less green than using a nuclear reactor as most probes do, the R&D invested in making solar panels light and efficient will create more applications for them on earth. This is the immediate green upside of space exploration.
You should note too that these are not solar sails. Solar sails are extremely large, very thin membranes attached to spacecraft which use the pressure of solar radiation to propel the craft away from the sun. They have never been deployed except in small scale experiments and scifi novels. These are just solar panels which collect sunlight to turn it into electricity. All of the craft's propulsion comes from chemical rockets which put it on course and pressurized gas to make adjustments later on.

US should apologize over drone incident, Iran tells Obama
Dec 13, 2011, 8:37 GMT
Tehran - Iran said on Tuesday that the United States should apologize to
Iran over the alleged violation of the Iranian airspace by a US drone.
US President Barack Obama had on Monday called on Iran to return the drone
which Tehran claims to have been spying in Iranian airspace and therefore
brought down by Iran's revolutionary guards (IRGC).
'President Obama should not forget that that the Iranian airspace was
clearly violated by the US drone and therefore the US should first
apologize for that,' Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast told
reporters in Tehran.
'We ask Mr Obama how he and the US had reacted if the US airspace had been
violated by a spy drone,' thr spokesman added.
Mehmanparast termed the capturing of the drone by IRGC forces as a
humiliation for the US 'in front of the world.'
An IRGC commander said Sunday that Iran would keep the captured US drone
for examination by its military experts.
General Hossein Salami however also said that the US could 'compensate
this aggressive move by some correct (political) measures.' He refrained
from specifying what that would entail.

Re: DISCUSSION - CHINA/JAPAN - Gas talks and Noda's visit

marked by the visit and coordination on gas talks? I think if we do go
ahead with a proposal on this piece, we probably will want to point out
that although we may see some changed relations at present - they are
ultimately superficial - because the cause of maritime rivalry we've seen
play out recently between the two is rooted in the ongoing shift in power
balances in the region and until that's resolved we are going to keep
seeing the cyclical flare-ups. I think the gas angle is really interesting
and your explanation of why now (from Japan's point of view) would make a
great piece if OPC approves.

Japanese media reported that Noda is making arrangements for a two-day
trip to China starting Dec.12, following the repeatedly unsettled
decision. It will be Noda's first visit to China since taking office in
September and also first Japanese PM in two years after Hatoyama.
Notably, China had reportedly shown sign to consider resumption of talks
with Japan on the joint gas development project in the East China Sea,
which have been stalled following Japan's arrest of a Chinese trawler
captain in the wake of collisions in the disputed area in the East China
sea last September. The gas talk hasn't confirmed by Chinese side (as it
may also be Japanese media bringing the issue up for some achievements).
This came after the sideline meeting in APEC between Noda and Hu, during
which Noda was calling for an early resumption of talks to sign a treaty
on the Chunxiao project in the East China Sea and urged China to
consider easing restrictions on Japanese food imports.
Since Noda took power, Beijing had been watching his policy stance
particularly the foreign policy toward China, not only because of
frequent shift of leadership as a result of Japanese political cycle,
but also Noda's personal background as JSDF and past statement over war
issue. The relations with previous DPJ administrations have gone through
up and downs. It was improved relatively under Hatoyama administration
for DPJ's campaign of more independent foreign policy distancing from
U.S and stress for economic ties with Beijing as part of its pro-Asia
initiative. Kan, however, bilateral relation went sharp down turn as a
result of boat collision, combining with Beijing's clear demonstration
that it won't compromise on territorial issue. To Beijing, Kans
approaches to hedge against China through cooperation with U.S and other
neighbors, and Beijing also perceived the unstable political cycle also
resulted in weak territorial claim on Japanese side. And the weak
response on Japanese side and exposure to China as a result of a series
of actions taken by China also created considerable oppositions
domestically. One option for Japan was to revitalizing Japan-U.S
military ties, and unilateral developing natural gas deposits in the
disputed area.
Under Noda, while he didn't demonstrate clear foreign policy direction,
a series of move after swore in have convinced Beijing he is continuing
Kan's China policy. This includes prioritize U.S-Japan security ties
(including base issue), sign of greater involvement in the South China
Sea disputes and multilateralize the issue with Vietnam, Philippines and
India, as well as TPP. To some extend, China perceived Japan's decision
on TPP participation a gauge of its position in moving to fit
Washington's reengaging Asia plan, and intention for counterbalance
China not only economically but also strategically.
However, Noda's decision of participation doesn't seem to be well
received by both U.S and domestically. Domestic criticism also arise
criticizing his failure for policy achievement at international stage,
particularly to pressure China and DPRK and gas talks. And also the
declining supporting rate is seen from original 60 percent to 40 percent
. For this, China may see the opportunity to display the benefit of not
balancing against Chinese interest.
But it also comes from Beijing's consideration to sooth tension in the
periphery, amid U.S engaging and heightened tension in the regional
security issues such as South China Sea. And a gesture on gas
exploration with Japan would also offer a perceptual move over Beijing's
intention in its advocated joint exploration proposal with other players
particularly in the disputed South China Sea.

the offer of resumption of gas talks comes at quite difficult timing
for Noda. Some domestic reports shows he wasn't well received by the
U.S in APEC despite his decision to participate TPP, and that he
failed to pressure China on DPRK and gas talks (by the time Hu didn't
agree with the resumption). China may see the opportunity to exploit
the situation, but could also be a way to sooth tension in the

China mulling resumption of stalled gas talks with Japan - agency
Text of report in English by Japan's largest news agency Kyodo
Beijing, 16 November: China is considering resuming stalled talks with
Japan toward signing a treaty on a joint gas development project in the
East China Sea and may reach a final decision as early as this month,
sources involved in Sino-Japanese relations have told Kyodo News.
Beijing is hoping to stabilize relations with Japan ahead of next year's
Chinese Communist Party Congress when a major change in leadership is
expected, the sources said. In addition, 2012 marks the 40th anniversary
of the normalization of relations between the two countries.
However, the decision-making process in China will likely be complicated
as it involves not only the Foreign Ministry but also various bodies of
the government, party and military. Depending on the outcome of upcoming
international meetings involving both countries, Beijing may decide to
continue to put off resumption of talks, according to the sources.
China unilaterally postponed the talks after the first round was held in
July last year. The move was made in protest against Japan's arrest of a
Chinese trawler captain in the wake of collisions in September last year
with Japanese patrol ships near the disputed Senkaku Islands in the East
China Sea.
The incident drove bilateral relations to their lowest point in many

opinion in China,'' a Chinese diplomatic source said.
Resumption of talks on the gas development project may draw opposition
from the Chinese public, many of whom are wary of Japan as they feel
Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda's administration is actively intervening
in China's territorial disputes in the South China Sea with other
If the Noda government is seen as being hostile toward China at upcoming
diplomatic gatherings such as the East Asia Summit and bilateral foreign
ministerial talks later this month, Beijing may decide to continue
delaying the resumption, the sources said.
Nonetheless, China has recently shown a more flexible stance compared to
its dealings with Noda's predecessor, Naoto Kan. In talks with Noda on
Saturday in Honolulu, Chinese President Hu Jintao said China wants to
continue communications with Japan and prepare for an early resumption
of negotiations, according to a Japanese official.
In 2008, the two countries agreed to jointly develop an area near a gas
field known as Longjing in China and Asunaro in Japan. Japanese
companies would also join the development of the Chunxiao gas field by
China, known as Shirakaba in Japan.

JDS Architects recently unveiled their plans for the Beijing Green Visitor Center, which will sit at the entrance to a new sustainable industry park. The building serves as a welcome area for visitors and employees and joins the existing car park to the R&D centre and the park loop. Inside the 5,000 sq m (53,820 sq ft) visitor center are multifunctional and exhibition spaces along with a reception area, VIP room, a shop, a cafe and a children's area. The building's volume is based on a serious of manipulations to protect it from its environs. In this way, the original rectangular box is pushed and stretched to create an undulating roof, which is characteristic of JDS Architects' design style.
This undulation is topped with a building integrated photovoltaic system on the portion that faces the south. The stretching of the roof also serves to protect the interior from direct sunlight, glare and overheating, while still allowing for natural daylight to to enter the space. Moveable photovoltaic louvers on the south side further block direct light by absorbing it and generating energy. In the winter, the sun is low enough to reach into the interior and heat up the floors that act as thermal mass and distribute warmth throughout the interior. Rainwater is also collected and stored in an underground cistern for use in the toilets and the park. Visitors and employees can enter through the building or bypass the interior by walking over the top and gaining a different view of the surrounding park and landscaping. The sloped roof can also serve as seating and an amphitheater when required.

An abstract class is something which is incomplete and you can not create instance of abstract class. If you want to use it you need to make it complete or concrete by extending it. A class is called concrete if it does not contain any abstract method and implements all abstract method inherited from abstract class or interface it has implemented or extended. By the way Java has concept of abstract classes, abstract method but a variable can not be abstract in Java. Popular example of abstract class in Java is ActionListener which has abstract method called actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae). This method is called when an ActionEvent is fired like when you click on JButton. Its common in java to attach ActionListener with JButton by implementing abstract method actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) using Anonymous class, as shown in below Example :
7) If a class extends an abstract class or interface it has to provide implementation to all its abstract method to be a concrete class. alternatively this class can also be abstract.

10 Reasons the GOP Is Really Messed Up -- According to Republicans
Karl Rove uses white board on 'The O'Reilly Factor' to illustrate his polling theory.
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
Just as the Republican Party might have contemplated an end to its wound-licking (the better to gin up its scandal-making machine for President Barack Obama's second term), vanquished Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney proved to be -- for liberals, at least -- the gift that keeps on giving.
The president, Romney told a group of campaign donors on a November 14 conference call, won re-election by promising free stuff to his homeboys and women's libbers and brown people who inconveniently declined to self-deport -- or words to that effect.
"What the president -- president's campaign did was focus on certain members of his base coalition, give them extraordinary financial gifts from the government," Romney told his fat cats, apparently unaware that reporters were listening in. Soon that particular cat leapt out of the proverbial bag, and it was the 47 percent all over again -- offering a vision of the majority of the electorate that voted for Obama as a bunch of moochers. The one difference, of course, was that no longer the party's presidential contender, Romney learned that Republicans were free to kick him to the curb, which they did with steel-toed boots.
In the Los Angeles Times, Morgan Little wrote that within two short weeks, Romney went from being the party's standard-bearer to being "a punching bag for fellow Republicans..."
The effect of Romney's remarks was to extend for a second week the rounds of public ruminations by Republicans, via the Sunday talk shows, on what went wrong in the presidential election that Republicans were so certain they were poised to win. The Grand Old Party not only lost, but lost big among key demographics, including Latinos, 71 percent of whom voted for Obama, and unmarried women, 68 percent of whom voted for the president.
Here's a sampling of 10 reasons given by some of the Republican Party's leading lights -- including Karl Rove, Newt Gingrich and Meghan McCain -- and why the party failed so miserably, and what it needs to do in order to make a comeback.
1. Bobby Jindal: G.O.P. = "the stupid party"
The Republican governor of Louisiana made a grand show of great offense at Romney's remarks, stating such offense in multiple media outlets over the course of several days, and with a flourish on Fox News Sunday, where Jindal's consternation seemed as much focused on the bad politics of the Romney comments as it was on the contempt shown by the nominee for everyday Americans. On Fox, Jindal's segment (which also featured Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker) was set up with a snippet of video featuring Jindal saying: "We've got to stop being the stupid party. You know what I mean by that. Certainly, we need to stop making stupid comments."
Interviewed by host Chris Wallace, Jindal elaborated:
If we want people to like us, we have to like them first. And, you don't start to like people by insulting them and saying their votes were bought. We are an aspirational party.
Let the Democratic Party be the party that says demography is destiny, that says we are going to divide people by race, by gender, by class. We as a Republican Party, believe our conservative principles are good for every single voter. It's not just a marketing campaign. It's not just having better PR folks. We're going to go and convince and fight for every single vote, showing them we are the party for the middle class, upward mobility. We don't start winning majorities and winning elections by insulting our voters.
2. Lindsey Graham: "We're in a big hole," and Romney keeps digging.
When he's not busy trying to turn the Benghazi tragedy into a scandal, the U.S. senator from South Carolina apparently spends his down time trying to figure out how to fix his own party. Appearing on NBC's Meet the Press on Sunday, Graham offered a laundry list of things the Republicans had gotten wrong -- including anti-immigration rhetoric and the scapegoating of the poor.

If you're in the mood for doughnuts, pizza or cocktails, three new D.C. area eateries that opened this month will satisfy your cravings.
Zeke's DC Donutz 2029 P Street NW, Washington D.C. 20036 Hours: Monday, Wednesday and Friday 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Thursday 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., Saturday and Sunday 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. www.facebook.com/ZekesDCDonutz
Zeke's DC Donutz has joined the doughnut trend that seems to be sweeping D.C. as of late with a funky doughnut shop in Dupont. Owner Aaron Gordon, who is also behind Red Velvet, Rabbit, and Drafting Table, designed the shop's old-school aesthetic to be reminiscent of the Washington he grew up in where go-go bands ruled and graffiti artists used the cityscape as personal mural space.
The eatery features walls with vibrant graffiti designs, a boom box pumping old tunes and 80s-style track suits. Pastry Chef Stephanie MacGlaughlin serves up classic doughnuts along with more innovative ones such as chili-spiked Mexican Chocolate and even mealtime-inspired doughnuts like grilled cheese or pizza.
For even more twists on the classic donut, patrons can also top their doughnuts with froyo or indulge in cold cereal milk -- MacGlaughlin infuses milk with sugary cereals such as Fruit Loops and Corn Flakes.
RedRocks 2501 9th Rd. South, Arlington, Va. Hours: 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to midnight Friday and Saturday www.redrocksdc.com
The third location of RedRocks Neopolitan Bistro has opened in South Arlington along the Columbia Pike corridor. The menu offers classic Neopolitan-style pizzas, house-made pastas, charcuterie and small plates ranging from scallop dishes to turnip puree.
Patrons can expect to see the 3,800 square-foot space adorned with vintage, industrial décor and walls lined with charming reclaimed white oak wood. An extensive beer list also accompanies the Italian fare as well as six signature cocktails and wines sourced from small-scale vineyards.
RedRocks serves lunch daily, except on Mondays, as well as dinner and late-night dining Thursday through Saturday.
Barmini 855 E Street NW, Washington D.C. 20004 Hours: Tuesday through Saturday starting at 6 p.m. www.minibarbyjoseandres.com
Jose Andres, internationally acclaimed chef and restaurateur, has delighted Washingtonians with a new, innovative bar concept, Barmini.
The cocktail lab, adjacent to Minibar, serves as an experimental mixology laboratory offering a rotating menu of 100 different experimental and avant-garde cocktails. Molecular gastronomy techniques elevate staple cocktails such as Whiskey Sours and Rusty Nails, while newly conceptualized cocktails equally wow patrons.
The crazy but delicious cocktails range in price from $14 to $20 while small bites are available from $5 to $16. Reservations must be made in advance and can be done so online.

Central wins fifth straight
Adams Central got a strong performance from Isaac Luginbill on the mound and scored its fifth straight win Thursday night, beating Southern Wells 10-0 in six innings in the opening round of Allen County Athletic Conference baseball in Monroe.
Luginbill went the distance and allowed just one hit. The one base runner he allowed was promptly picked off. The junior southpaw struck out nine and was backed by errorless defense.
Will Schultz, Cooper Hill and Conner Lengerich both hit home runs for the Jets (5-4, 1-0). Schultz finished with a team high four RBI; Lengerich and Hill both had two runs batted in.
Isaac Soldner went 3-for-3 for Central. Dalton Combs, Landon Brunner,...

Manual Installation
In certain circumstances there might be a problem with using the standard Browser Installation method described, but all is not lost. It is possible to install Joomla! in a more complex, but never-the-less straight-forward process provided it is completed in sequence.
Step 1 – Create and edit the configuration file
Open the local directory where you uncompressed the Joomla! Core distribution directories and files and copy the file configuration.php-dist.
Rename the copied file to configuration.php, and open it in your code editor.
Edit the following fields in particular, prior to saving the file in the joomla_root directory of the installation. The remaining fields can be edited through the Global Configuration screen of the Control Panel->Site Menus.
The following are the important variables to be amended before the software will operate properly:
var $sitename = 'your Web site name';
var $dbtype = 'mysql';
var $secret = 'FBVtggIk5lAzEU9H'; //Change this to a random mixture of upper and lower alphanumeric characters. This is an important security feature and should not be neglected.
It is not essential to enter the FTP data at this point as the information can be added within the Global Configuration screen once installation is completed.
var $ftp_host = '127.0.0.1'; //This is the default localhost address reference. Your Web host may have set this differently.
var $tmp_path = '/tmp'; //The absolute path to the tmp directory within the root directory of your Joomla! installation. This should not be confused with the same named directory of your Web server.
var $log_path = '/var/logs'; //The absolute path to your Web server log directory.
var $mailfrom = 'your e-mail address';
Other variable settings in the configuration.php can be altered via the Global Configuration screen in the Control Panel->Site Menu once installation has been completed.

Comments about DC 1011700 Men's Central Graffik Sandals:
I bought these because I loved the look and the logo print. I should have known though that wearing them would cause the printing to wear off, but I didn't realize it would happen so soon. I wore them for a day and saw them already wearing off. They're reasonably comfortable as far as flip flops go, but it's sad they won't be flashy for long.

Portfolio Management Group-Fixed Income Analyst Interview
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at BlackRock in November 2010.
I did not apply via campus recruiting. A family friend circulated my resume through the NY office and they contacted me saying that they no longer had any positions open for the NY group but they would keep me in the loop if something opened up. They contacted me 3 days later and asked me if I wanted to set up a time to have a phone interview with someone in the SF group. The phone interview was supposed to be around 30 minutes, but lasted for about 50 and was entirely fit. I walked through my resume, my interest in BlackRock, my interest in asset management and my interest in fixed income. The interview went well and I was invited to a SuperDay in the SF office. The interview process in SF consisted of 4 (approximately) 30 minute 1:1 interviews, with of a mix of fit questions, brainteasers and questions about current events in the markets. I met with VP's and Directors. Everyone was extremely nice and it was a very laid-back experience. The interview was on a Friday and I was contacted the next Monday with the offer.

I can check again next time I get the chance, but I have done the same on the beta.
Just to be clear so there's no misunderstanding, Death Grip has not been changed on LIVE, but has been changed on CATACLYSM to have a minimum range of 8 yards, and it does not work at point blank range. Here's a this nifty video I made so everyone can see them self. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ta1lR2tWfI8

The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
hi, um maybe u mentioned it but is there such thing as hard caped defense.... where after defense is pointless to add on....if there is such thing do u happen to know the figure?
i tank wid 599 defense rating and was thinkin maybe i shud drop it down to 570 defense rating and get a bit more of health pool which is currently at 40k
btw love ur guide
No. There is never a point at which you cease to get value from Defense.
Also on a related note, I take no small measure of enjoyment from my excessive defense giving my IBF about 65% damage reduction.
For your personal concerns, it is only a matter of whether or not you are gemming for it beyond what you need (540). I am sitting at around 612, I think without a shred of Def gems or enchants. If you are gemming it or enchanting it though, there may be a more desirable choice depending on your priorities. It holds up rather well at higher levels for still giving you good avoidance, but few people are looking for that.
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
I'm just wondering. What is the highest threat combo to start off with as Blood? (Opener)
Personally I, ITx2, PS, HSx2, ERW, ITx2, HSx2
That should net me about 90k (15k x4 from IT + 5k x4 from HS + 10k misc PS/melee/RS) threat easily.
Best case scenario i would start the fight with 4 deathrunes (after trash) and my Opener will be
ITx4, HSx2, ERW, ITx2, PSx1, HSx2
should net me about 120k (15k x6 from IT + 5k x4 from HS + 10k misc PS/melee/RS) threat.
But was told to use DnD (after somehow a lock pulled aggro during the Rune Blackout after the Opener).
So what i did was, DnD, IT, PS, HS, ERW, ITx2, HSx2
That should net me about 105k (40k from DnD + 15k x3 from IT + 5k x3 from HS + 10k misc PS/melee/RS) threat. (O dear, i just learnt something)
As for Cruiser
Usually I HSx2, DSx2, HSx6 (or Pestx1, HSx5)
If im getting caught up, IT for deathrunes instead of HS.
Are there any better variations out there?
Ok guys, so Im at the Lich King now on 10 man and my GM is telling me that I need to re-spec to Frost to kill the LK.
Is this true? We had him to 55% last night and I seem to be doing fine with threat.
On the same note, he also said I should swap my PvP shoulder enchant for dodge/parry, and also my glove enchant for 2% added threat. I have already went back through my old comments and what Edgewalker said and according to him I have the best available now.
I know there are different people that have different opinions, but I feel very strongly about my current enchants and unless someone proves me wrong I will not change them, which is what I told the group very nicely during a raid. Im very glad to be at the point now where I can stand up for myself with my gear and enchant choices, though the Frost spec for LK I still do not understand.
Any DK tank that ask me for help I direct them to this guide, which for me, has been the single best thing I have had for help and information.
Thanks in advance
To put it bluntly, there isn't a single thing your GM said that makes sense. Stam on your shoulders provides better buffer against Soul Reapers then the Hodir enchant, on gloves go expertise for threat or 18 stamina for survival (your cruising threat should be so far beyond the dps these days that an artificial 2 percent increase is worthless). And as to the spec... if you are going to be tanking LK himself, at all, then you pretty much must be blood. WOTN will let you eat soul reapers, even if you miss cds, if you are sufficiently geared (but don't stress your healers out, use the cds). If you are going to be doing nothing but adds, it really dosen't matter so much. A Frost spec with chill blains is not bad for slowing all three valks on 25m, but it really shouldn't be neccesary.
I have run this with a number of different set ups and tanking configs. In the most recent kills I have run with a warrior tank. We put him on LK and me on Adds in P1, just because I have done adds so many times that its lulzy. Then we switch on P2 so that he can stun valks without having to drag LK around, then we switch back on P3 so that I am free to army, taunt, DG, etc adds... I do all of this in blood.
If you are a member of a strict raid team where you have to fall in or sit out, then you wouldn't have much of a choice. Otherwise, I would expect from what you've said that your raid leader is a micro-manager and one who tries to direct people on topics he doesn't fully understand. Trust the community and your experience over what he read on a BiS list. /shudder

Thanks guys.
Sorry I didn't provide my armory link ; http://www.wowarmory.com/character-s...cn=Michultradk
Please note that I picked my new shoulders up last night and have not enchanted them yet. I feel that I'm geared well enough to complete ICC, playing talent pending...lol
The guys I'm running with have really helped me out by taking a player that has minimal playing xp and only one level 80 toon, I wish I would've started sooner but it is what it is. The GM was not demanding, but more trying to help the raid group, which of course I'm all for. But as I explained to him and the others I feel I read and study a decent amount and use several different sources of information so I can be better prepared as a player for group raids.
Again, any help on better gear choices or changes is always welcomed, I know I need a neck upgrade badly but one hasn't dropped for me yet. At the content I'm playing now I should switch my D&D glyph for one that has been mentioned here, I know Satorri has said that it's pretty good for 5 man heroics but useless for ICC raids. I will look back into that.
Thanks again guys

The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
Okay, so I am sitting here wondering if I am doing this whole thing right. I was wondering if you guys would take a look at my toon, and let me kinow if I am enchanted and gemmed properly. I really would appreciate any feedback.
My armory link is http://www.wowarmory.com/character-s...N%C3%AFghtmare
Jol, for ICC I would swap some enchants: +30 stamina pvp enchant on shoulders, +225 armor on cloak, +275hp on chest, +240 armor on gloves. But I'm assuming here that you don't have problems with threat and you're doing progression runs, not farming bosses on normal mode.
2 things...
1> Thank you for your time, tons of helpful insights and answers here.
2 Um...my wife says you owe her a new ink cartridge! lol

The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
You are confused in your statements. You dismiss what you don't appear to understand.
The PvP shoulder enchant is only actually better for you *if* your personal valuing of Stamina is significantly higher than any other value (in this case dodge and defense). If you are maximizing EH, the Gladiator glyph becomes the best in ICC gear. If you are maximizing survival in general, the opportunity cost of that shoulder enchant is not absent.
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
* Your spec is blood where many abilities relies on your total HP: Death Strike, Vamp Blood, Rune Tap, WotN, Mark of Blood.
* You're part of progression runs, not farming content.
Am I missing something or I misunderstood your last post? Cause I'm sure that both above statements are true in case of Michultradk.
*If* you value EH first and foremost. I am generally of a mind that health is the best value for Blood DK tanks, yes. I am only disagreeing with the severity of TheYanger's statement saying that it is never advisable to use the Def/Dodge enchant. (I also specifically have used it, even through progression, because I invest in a decent amount of non-health supporting survival values. My healers have felt I'm easier to heal because of it, anecdotal though that may be.)
And for Mich, with the size of the buff, I fancy the value of the Dodge and Defense (double whammy avoidance and IBF buffing) for ICC raiding at this point, though the Glad enchant is not a bad choice, by any stretch of the imagination, either.
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
You may fancy it, but being the face of the DK community it's sickening to see you advising people poorly about it. Your 'healers' have definitely never noticed you having 0.75% more avoidance or whatever the heck it is after all the DR we have at ICC gear levels. Compared to over 400 extra health? give me a break. EH isn't always the superior stat to consider, but for ICC in almost every case it is, there are some fights where pure stamina can beat it out due to magic damage, either way avoidance isn't a factor to consider on this fight where you're getting trucked and you need the extra health.
Again, it's one thing to be some baseline DK apologist who will support anyone in their endeavors to be a unique and special snowflake in their tanking, which is what you usually are, and quite another to offer poor advice as gospel. If people want to do silly things like tank as unholy or whatever, at least admit that it's suboptimal, if they ask 'am I doing this wrong?' the kid gloves don't help - you are what a ton of newbie DK tanks look up to and when they ask a question about the game it's better for the game and for the players if you can at least give the right answers. CAN you tank as unholy successfully, CAN you use the hodir enchant and beat the game? No doubt. That's kind of not the point. You don't see new rogues going in with terrible subtlety specs and asking for advice and being told that it's ok, they don't have to be 'the best.'
It genuinely bothers me that we have a DK representative who is so out of touch with the reality of what is best for a DK tank. You can tell people definitively what they SHOULD do, if they ask for it, without coming accross as a prick, I assure you. (And before someone says it, I know *I* come accross as a prick, but I'm not Satorri and people don't ask me for advice).
