Bought these because you can run them tubeless according to vittora's website.
Used the stan's cyclocross kit and was good to go.
C02 is necessary and they take a while to seal up. Hopefully vitorria will come out with a tighter bead. But they work for now and I'm happy with them.

whats better the 700x32 or the 700x34 whats the difference what do u recommend..
Aaron Crabb
This measurement is the width of the tire (incase you didn't know). And while there's not THAT much difference between 32 and 34mm, the choice can make a noticeable difference in how your bike feels.
The wider 34s can take slightly lower pressure maybe giving them a little more cushion over rough terrain. They may have a little more traction in stopping and climbing steep hills. But the 34's will not necessarily have better cornering traction. Wider tires can "walk" or roll when they are on narrow rims. Plus the cornering traction of a tire like this is mainly dependent on its side knobs.
If you have wider beefy cyclocross-specific wheels/rims go ahead and get the 34's.
Or if you expect ride in very dry conditions the wider 34's might be better (wider tires seem to do better in dusty, sandy, dry terrain).
Otherwise the 32's are lighter and will probably feel more stable more often in the corners.
If you are racing Cyclocross technically 34mm is wider than regulations allow.... but no one cares and many people run them anyway :-D

Tires ride really well on all types of terrain. No problems so far.
Great traction - tough bead
I have enjoyed the additional traction (and more forgiving ride) of these tires; however, I've had major difficulty installing on my Easton Vista wheelset. Punctured 3 tubes, broke 1 lever. Purchased a tire bead jack and I've now won the battle. I also have the Cross XN for commuting -love them more.
Can these be run tubeless?

These tires are great. I use these as my CX training tires, and their big brother tubulars as my race tires. The tread pattern is a great all arounder and is very similar to the Clement Grifo pattern, but these have bigger and better cornering knobs. Very predictable tires. I will continue to buy these in the future.

It is the focus on the "fascial" system that sets Rolf Structural Integration (RSI) apart from other forms of massage therapy and bodywork. Let's take a look at a couple of the unique qualities of fascia. Along with the skeletal system, the fascial system is the main structural component of the body. It is composed primarily of protein (collagen and elastin) fibers suspended in a semiliquid material called ground substance. The most important quality of the ground substance as it relates to RSI is its ability to transform from a thick, sticky "gel" form to a more fluid, slick "sol" form. The sol form is the normal, healthy condition of the ground substance that allows the bundles and layers of fascia to slide smoothly against its neighboring fascial component. In gel form, it tends to adhere to the tissue around it - think about a mass of scar tissue which is an area of fascia with randomly arranged fibers stuck together with ground substance in gel form.We find fascia in three general conditions in the body. (1) In the normal, healthy condition, the protein fibers are organized parallel to the muscle cells, and they are suspended in fluid, slick ground substance in sol form. (2) In the unhealthy altered form, the protein fibers are densely packed and stuck together by ground substance in thick, sticky gel form. (3) And in the case of scar tissue, the protein fibers are randomly arranged, like a bowl of spaghetti, and stuck in gel form ground substance.Through injury, overuse, or bad posture the fascia changes from healthy/sol form to unhealthy/gel. The inward flow of oxygen and compounds used by the muscle cells in normal cellular metabolism, and the flow of CO2 and waste products out of the cell slows, changing the biochemical balance and causing dysfunction and pain.Fortunately, RSI can intervene in this process and change the gel form fascia back into sol form, so the tissue can return to health. On a molecular level, the physical work of RSI compresses the molecules of the fascia into a smaller space where they bump into each other more often, generating heat, (and by physical definition - changing from solid to liquid form), melting the tissue into the healthy fluid sol state.
So how does this work in helping a person feel better? Let's take the example of sciatica, a painful irritation of the sciatic nerve that causes pain and numbness in the butt, and sometimes radiating down the back of the leg. The pain and dysfunction is caused by an impingement on the nerve somewhere along its pathway from where it exits the spinal cord in the lumbar spine, down the middle of the buttocks, and down the middle of the back of the thigh. By evaluating the structure of the back, as an RSI practitioner, I can locate a site in the back that has unequal muscle tone between the left and right sides of the spine. Using RSI techniques I can then work to lengthen the short, contracted side and simultaneously increase the tone on the opposite side. This re-establishes the even left/right balance in muscle tone, and can relieve the impingement on the sciatic nerve as it passes through the tissue. Other RSI techniques can be used if the nerve impingement is occurring in the muscles of the buttock or hamstrings in the back of the thigh. Establishing balance and symmetry in the tone of the soft tissue is the key. This supports proper posture and nervous system function which minimizes the potential for pain.Most people perceive RSI therapy to feel similar to a deep tissue massage, where the pressure is in the "good hurt" range. Because the fascia releases more slowly than the muscle cells, the work is more slowly paced than most massage. During a treatment, I apply firm, steady pressure, with a component of stretch to the tissue, and then wait for the release to occur. When it does, I simply follow the release to the next barrier, and wait for the next release. If no release occurs, I might try to approach the barrier from a different angle or depth. In either case, several times during the session I will step back to reassess the changes in overall body balance and symmetry. It is important to remember that, in effect, I am making suggestions to the body of new ways of function and form. That is, I am trying to replace old habitual ways of function and posture with new, more efficient ways. Often the biggest changes occur days (or more) after a session when the body is able to integrate the work into a new pattern of movement and structural balance.Kirk Apt is a certified bodywork therapist with more than 15 years experience.

I've been using it for around a week now and had around 25 hours of talk time plus and the charge meter is still on four bars! The comfort is great; interchangeable ear pieces and you can switch the hook around so you can change to whatever ear you prefer. I think maybe the bigger the ear you have, the better it fits! I've been told my voice is clear to when talking in party chat and that they get no feedback (low buzzing). The Bluetooth function also works well. The clarity of the voice calls is superb. All in all a great wireless headset with plenty of talk time and is lightweight.

Global Warming Alarmists Plan Back'Fires' Again
August 3, 2012
Posted by Katie Brown firstname.lastname@example.com
Global Warming Alarmists Plan "Back'Fires'" Again
Alarmists Claimed Melting Street Lamps Caused by Global Warming - Turns Out they Melted Due to a Dumpster Fire
Fox News: Liberal Plan Back'Fires'
Michelle Malkin: Sen. Inhofe reveals the 'global warming' that melted street lamps in Oklahoma by Doug Powers: After further analysis I think the warming alarmists might be on to something. Look what became visible when I zoomed in on part of the photo of the melting street light:
Watts Up With That: Alarmist fact checking - street lights don't melt at 115°F: I wonder if it ever occurred to these guys to check to see how many streetlights melt in Phoenix (or Riyadh and Baghdad) each year where the temperature routinely reaches 115°F and as high as 122°F ? Or why only two globes melted on one side? They are High density polyethelene HDPE Polyethylene White Street Light Globes, Melting Point: 266°F 130°C
Daily Caller: Dumpster fire, not global warming, melted Oklahoma streetlamps: Always a lightning rod for global warming activists' discontent, Oklahoma Republican Sen. James Inhofe was treated to some challenging tweets Thursday after the left-wing blog ThinkProgress posted a photo of melting street lights in his home state and claimed they were the result of global warming."WOW. It's so hot in Oklahoma that the streetlights are melting," ThinkProgress declared, noting the temperature topping off at 114 degrees."Hey Senator @InhofePress, even your streetlights are saying #ImTooHot http://ow.ly/cHbX4," the Climate Reality Project tweeted later, linking to the ThinkProgress claim."Senator Inhofe, God may be trying to get your attention. Check out this picture http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2012/08/02/630211/in-oklahoma-its-so-hot-the-street-lights-are-melting/ ..." added Environmental activist Bill McKibben, highlighted by blogger Tom Nelson. That tweet was later deleted. But according to KFOR-TV in Oklahoma City, the street lamps melted because of a dumpster fire in the area the night before. KFOR first posted the streetlamp photo on its Facebook page. "That is the consensus in the newsroom," a KFOR staffer confirmed to The Daily Caller.
Newsbusters: Soros-Funded Propaganda Machine Think Progress Falsely Claims Global Warming Melted Street Lights in Oklahoma: So eager are the shills at the George Soros-funded far-left website Think Progress to find evidence of global warming that on Thursday they falsely blamed melting street lights in Stillwater, Oklahoma, on the heat ... Pretty pathetic! Anthony Watts observed: I wonder if it ever occurred to these guys to check to see how many streetlights melt in Phoenix (or Riyadh and Baghdad) each year where the temperature routinely reaches 115°F and as high as 122°F ? Or why only two globes melted on one side? Watts later identified that these globes are made of high density polyethelene with a melting point of 266 degrees. Why should we expect a far-left propaganda machine to do research that might impede its agenda? Soros must be pleased with the bang he's getting for his buck.Powerline: Liberals: Global Warming Is Causing Street Lights to Melt!: There is a sad postscript to this story, however. Yahoo News, which I believe has more readers (or, at least, casual viewers) than any newspaper, picked up the story of the melting street lights in Oklahoma. It reproduced Think Progress's photo, with the headline: "Oklahoma is so hot that street lamps are melting." The alleged phenomenon was highlighted on the main Yahoo page, where millions of people presumably saw it ... But if you keep reading, you learn that Yahoo knows better: "It's possible the heat itself isn't responsible for the event - it's being reported on Facebook that a nearby dumpster fire may have been the cause of the melting plastic light housings. Still, that dumpster fire was caused and aggravated by the record heat and dryness. And if dangerous, spontaneous fires aren't reason enough to go green, we don't know what is."

Quaker Heritage Center Announces Two New Exhibits
Each Continues Theme of Peace and Reconciliation
October 3, 2012
Canadian photographer Peter Davis chronicled his spring 2003 visit in Italy after the invasion of Iraq by including in his photographs the seemingly ever-present "La Bandiera per la Pace" – the rainbow-colored, Italian flag for peace.
The Meriam R. Hare Quaker Heritage Center at Wilmington College is continuing its exhibit theme of peace and reconciliation by featuring two new art exhibits drawing upon the Quaker tradition of nonviolence.
Searching for Peace and Broadside Prints from Volume IV: You Are Not My Enemy! will open Monday (Oct. 8) with a special exhibit reception Wednesday (Oct. 10), at 7:30 p.m. The event is free of charge.
Curator Ruth Brindle Dobyns said the occurrence of these concurrent exhibits is especially serendipitous.
"I was working on the design for Searching for Peace when Steve Fryburg of Missing Peace Art Space in Dayton contacted me," she said. "'I've got something here you might be interested in,' he said. When he sent me some photos of the artwork from Broadside Prints, I was sold. I knew we had to have these two exhibits here together."
Searching for Peace is an exhibit featuring the work of Canadian photographer Peter Davis. Brindle Dobyns explained that, in Italy in the spring of 2003 after the invasion of Iraq, Davis was surrounded by La Bandiera per la Pace – the multi-colored, Italian flag for peace.
"Virtually everywhere he turned to take a photo of a building, a statue, a piazza, the flag would be somewhere in the viewfinder," she said. "The stunning result is an exhibit that includes more than 60 photographs, each one inviting the viewer to search for peace."
Broadside Prints comes from the Combat Paper Project, a group that uses art-making workshops to assist veterans in reconciling and sharing their personal experiences, as well as broadening the traditional narrative surrounding service and the military culture.
(LEFT) One of the Broadside Prints featuring the theme, "You are not my enemy!"
"This one-of-a-kind portfolio features eight stencil printed images on handmade rag paper," Brindle Dobyns said, noting that additional artwork by Fryburg is included.
"Both of these exhibits are powerful in their own right," she added. "Putting them side-by-side adds to the message that we must each be responsible for the peace we wish to find in the world."
The exhibits run from Oct. 8 through Dec. 14 during regular gallery hours, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Information on extended gallery hours can be found by contacting Brindle Dobyns at (937) 382-6661 ext. 719 or visiting www.wilmington.edu/qhc.

David Zinczenko, Jack Kliger and The Man Most Unlikely to Wind Up at Michael's
As faithful readers know, we endeavor to give our rundown of the movers and shakers who show up at Michael's every Wednesday a cheeky spin so as not to take ourselves too seriously about the whole power lunch thing. Today, aside from the obvious reason not to make light of an already featherweight subject, I'm too dumbstruck by a new acquaintance I made while making my rounds in the dining room to come up with a pithy opener.
When TV Guide's acting CEO Jack Kliger motioned me to come over and meet the handsome young man dressed in a T-shirt and jeans, I couldn't imagine who he might be. An actor starring in a new crime procedural for CBS? A new reality star ready for his close-up? A family friend getting the full-court "Lunch at Michael's" treatment? Well, I was half right. "This is Jonathan Alpeyrie," said Jack. "He's a combat photographer who was kidnapped in Syria and just released a few weeks ago." The French-American photographer told me he was on his third trip to Syria when he was abducted at gunpoint by masked men at a checkpoint near Damascus and was held for 81 days. During his harrowing time spent in captivity, he was often chained to a bed and narrowly escaped execution after enraging a guard because he went to the bathroom without getting permission. The solider held a machine gun to Jonathan's head before being called off by the other soldiers standing guard. Jonathan didn't seem to want to talk much about his experience, so Jack, who is a close friend of Jonathan's father, filled in the blanks.

Orchiectomy is a surgery to remove one or both testicles.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
An orchiectomy may be done to treat:
It can also be a diagnostic procedure to determine if cancer is present when a mass is found during ultrasound.
If you are planning to have an orchiectomy, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
Before your procedure, talk to your doctor about ways to manage factors that may increase your risk of complications such as:
Your doctor and anesthesiologist may do the following:
Talk to the doctor about your medicines. You may be asked to stop taking some medicines up to one week before the procedure, like:
Other things to keep in mind before the procedure:
The procedure is done under
spinal anesthesia
. You will be asleep or sedated. Anesthesia will block any pain during the surgery.
You will be prepared for surgery. The genital area will be shaved and sterilized. An IV will be placed in your arm for medicines and fluids.
Once you are asleep, the doctor will make a small incision in the groin area or in the scrotum. The testicle is pulled up from the scrotal sac. The cord that connects the testicle to the scrotum is clamped and sutured. The testicle is removed. Absorbable stitches will be used to close all incision areas.
A prosthetic testicle is sometimes placed into the scrotum. This can be done at the time of the surgery or at a later date.
About one hour per testicle
You will not feel any pain during the procedure. The doctor will give you pain medicine when you wake up.
The staff may provide the following care to make you more comfortable and help your recovery:
You will be able to leave when the anesthesia has worn off and you can walk.

The Play for All Abilities Park has been a community-wide effort and a dream come true for Round Rock and surrounding communities. Through the Play for all Foundation, the City's Parks and Recreation Department, local civic clubs, city staff and professionals and parents who have worked with children with special needs, Round Rock was able to design a beautiful park to serve the children of Williamson County, including its 7,945 children with a disability.
The mission of the park is to provide a safe, fun place to play and develop new skills for children and playscapes that easily accommodate children with special needs. Used for therapy and learning — as well as play — the park includes all ability swings, an all abilities playscape, a sensory pod, and even a village with mini-versions of Round Rock businesses to help children learn life skills.
The park, just east of A.W. Grimes Boulevard, south of U.S. 79, is heavily shaded and tucked away from busy streets. The Brushy Creek Regional Trail will be accessible from the park (2013 construction). The trail will connect Redbud Lane/CR122 to A.W. Grimes Boulevard and connects into the Greater Lake Creek Trail System.
The Texas Municipal League is a voluntary association of more than 1,120 Texas cities. Its primary objective is to serve the needs and advocate the interests of Texas cities, and it is the largest organization of its kind in the United States. The City of Round Rock is a member of the Texas Municipal League.
The Texas Municipal League Municipal Excellence Awards and the City-County Cooperation Award recognize and encourage the achievement of Texas cities in meeting the challenge of municipal government. The programs showcase the best in cooperation, innovative problem-solving, excellence in management, increasing citizen participation, and reaching toward higher service levels.

Our royal obsession? Rubbish!
Am I the only human being who didn't give a flip about the royal wedding?
Reportedly, more than 23 million Americans tuned into the television coverage that started at 3 a.m. EST on April 27. I have friends who took off work to not miss it. I even know someone who sent out legitimate wedding invitations for a viewing party at his house.
We don't know Will and Kate. We were not invited. We're not even British!
What really struck me was how millions of women who have been planning their dream wedding since birth were captivated by this event. Aside from marrying into the title of "princess," Kate's wedding was anything but a fairy tale. Forget modern, simple or edgy, by nature British royal weddings are heavily rooted in age old traditions that must be upheld.
Religious Restrictions
Before the wedding can even take place, there is the approval process. The 1701 Act of Settlement prohibits royals from marrying Catholics. For a royal bride or groom, violating this stipulation would mean forfeiting his or her place in line for the throne.
Predetermined Venue
Will and Kate's wedding was held at Westminster Abbey which became a mainstay for royal weddings in 1919 after the previous locale, the Chapel Royal at St. James Palace was deemed too small.
The Bridal Party
Traditionally, English brides are escorted by a group of bridesmaids; typically girls between the ages of 10-12. Kate upheld the tradition but also included her sister, Pippa. And at the ripe old age of 27, she will go down in England's history as the oldest royal bridesmaid to date.
Bouquet Requirements
Since the marriage of Queen Victoria to Prince Albert in 1840, English royal brides have carried a sprig of myrtle, known as the herb of love, in their bouquet. Thankfully, the bouquet is not required to be entirely made of myrtle as Queen Victoria's was, but nonetheless the herb must be present.
Kate actually left her bouquet at the grave of the unknown warrior at Westminster Abbey in honor of those who have served in the armed forces. A noble gesture, but further evidence to how public and political her special day was.
Obligatory Invitations
Will and Kate sent out nearly 2,000 invitations to their nuptials. Among that guest list were fellow royals, foreign leaders, church officials and diplomats. Sounds more like a corporate function than a personal celebration.
Impersonalized Ceremony
Writing one's own vows is out of the question. Pandemonium resulted in 1999 when Sophie, Countess of Wessex, promised to "honor, cherish and obey" Prince Edward. Imagine omitting anything with specific personal meaning from your ceremony for fear of public backlash.
Reception Itinerary
Typically, British weddings take place at noon and are followed by a formal luncheon called a "wedding breakfast." Subsequent to the meal is a public kiss scheduled to take place at 1:30 p.m. on the balcony at Buckingham Palace.
Weddings are typically a reflection of the couple and the receiving line is an opportunity to meet and greet all of the important people in your lives that took the time to be present. For a future princess, the reception is more so a public relations balancing act.
It seems to me that the wedding obsessed would frown upon the lack of creativity involved in the royal wedding. Kate truly had little say in the occasion. When I think about all the wedding details that make future brides gush with excitement, working a sleeve into the gown design isn't one of them. And don't even get me started on the wedding "fruit" cake.
All criticism aside, I am very happy for the newlyweds. But weddings are only relevant to me if A. I'm invited and B. requests for Tina Turner's "Proud Mary" are unlimited. And from what I can gather, that was not the case at Will's and Kate's.

Kamui Kobayashi is confident he will remain with Caterham until the end of this season but is unsure about the long-term future.
Earlier this week, it was confirmed that the Caterham F1 team had been sold to a consortium of Swiss and Middle Eastern investors.
The group have installed former F1 driver Christijan Albers as the new team boss while Colin Kolles is acting as an adviser while Kobayashi and his team-mate Marcus Ericsson will hold onto their race-seats.
"I will drive for this year, sure," said the Japanese driver. "For the future, I really didn't speak with them about it yesterday.
"I think next week we will have more time to speak with the boss, so let's see. Whatever happens I think my job this year is to get some results."
The 27-year-old is delighted that Caterham have remained on the grid and believes the influx of cash will help the team chase down Marussia in the Championship.
"I really appreciate that we can still continue to race, and I think our target is clear that we need to push to get back the Championship position," he said.
"We need to focus, and I think the last few months we were struggling with the budget, but now it seems we can use a bit more budget, so let's see what we can do.
"We need to do as much as we can. The new boss says he wants us to push for this year - this is a clear message for everybody. He is aggressive but I think this is what we need to do.
"We have more money, so we can get more updates. This is what we feel. This is a time to really push.
"We have nothing to lose, this is simple. We need to be together as a team and we have to focus to get our position in the Championship."

"I think a good novel would be where a bunch of men on a ship are looking for a whale. They look and look, but you know what? They never find him. And you know why they never find him? It doesn't say. The book leaves it up to you, the reader, to decide. Then, at the very end, there's a page you can lick and it tastes like Kool-Aid."

Neither. Use the Last Stand glyph + Blocking and Revenge.
You lose 10% of the HP that last stand gives, but a 2min cooldown vs a 5min cooldown is more than enough to make up for it.
20% hp is more than enough of a panic button, and it means you can use that button more often.

also remember haste stacks multiplicatively with it's self unlike crit , so if you have the 10% melee haste buff you only need 13.64% haste (5796 rating) from other sources to get down to 2 second swing time.
The extra absorb/reduction from Armor is not constant, the extra EHP (at same base armor) is.
The rating needed for 25% Haste (2.5->2.0) = 25 * 425 = 10625
At 3386 Haste, you get an average of 2,59 swings in a random 6s interval (or 3 attacks 59% of the time, 2 swings 41%), or 0.19 attacks more than at 0 Haste.
This is worth an extra ~2 Rage at 0% crit chance and ~3.14 Rage with your 40% crit chance.
The same amount of Haste turned into Crit grants an extra 5.64% crit chance, good for (6s / 2.5s swing) * 5.64% * 15 rage = ~2.03 Rage.
Result: Haste is giving you an average of 54% more rage during SD than crit does.

God damn it Airo.
also remember haste stacks multiplicatively with it's self unlike crit , so if you have the 10% melee haste buff you only need 13.64% haste (5796 rating) from other sources to get down to 2 second swing time.

*nods* Okay, you math-oriented folks, have you figured out what the sweet spot is where I should stop gearing/forging for crit and start forging for Haste, then? Airo's numbers seem to imply that Haste is better than crit once I hit 40% crit, and I vaguely remember Teng saying something back in the beta days about wanting 40% crit, 15% Haste or something like that (correct me if I'm wrong), but this was also before the re-buff of melee swing rage income. 13.64% soft cap sounds like a good thing, too, though 5796 is a long way to travel from 0.
I'll revisit the RPS calculator later this week. I suspect though that if haste is better it will always be better, no soft caps just the hard cap of inifinity.
EDIT: some one remind how glancing affects crit? and theres still a 4.5% crit depression agianst boss levels right?
EDIT2: I've uploaded a seperate bear calc. i'm so out of touch with my own sheet i expect mistakes. also screw bears bear form modifiers i've left the inputs as percentages, i'm too tired to sort out rating conversions.

Hard to say from my WoL parses, since I've got trinkets that boost my crit on some runs and ones that boost my Agi by others. But it looks like Glancing is always more or less constant as always.
New twist data - Tooth and Claw now makes Haste more valuable. As of the 5.1 patch, white melee swings have a 40% chance per swing of proc'ing a buff that applies a debuff to a Maul target. Said buff causes the target's next melee swing to absorb your current Stamina(x1) in damage, after which the buff goes away.
I took the new buff into a few 5 mans last night, and it threw my active mitigation rotation out of whack. It's sorta-kinda like a poor man's Shield Barrier or the original v1 Savage Defense, in the sense it blocks a set amount regardless of how much you get hit for and then goes away -- if you get hit for less than the debuff, it shows as an Absorb and you take 0 damage.
So now the AM choice becomes:
- Savage Defense (60 Rage, +45% dodge, but take full damage when you don't dodge)
- Maul (30 Rage, on Tooth and Claw proc), absorb your Stam in damage when the next melee swing hits you, so you could have both up at the same time, but highly unlikely
- Frenzied Regen (up to 60 rage, heals variable amount, but does nothing for you defensively)
Some numbers (damage is average, source is my WoL parses in the last couple of weeks):
Stone Guard dogs hit for an average of 20,238
Feng hits for an average of 49,909
Garajal hits for an average of 59,753
Elegon hits for an average of 70,237
Right now my unbuffed Stam gives me a little over 20K absorb. So for Stone Guard, any time you hit TaC, the next melee swing by the dog goes away. But the bigger damage on Stone Guard is the Rend Flesh, which with enough SD uptime and a lot of luck can be also avoided, but usually doesn't happen very much.
Taking 20+K off of any melee hit is nothing to sniff at. But it costs half of the Rage you were already building to get to your next Savage Defense/Frenzied Regen. If this were old-style Rage-on-getting-hit, definitely. But it's a tradeoff -- any way you slice it, that's two more hits you have to make to make up for the Rage you just spent to mitigate a single hit.
I'm still mulling over the utility of it - especially in light of the recent discussion. It's a flat 40% proc chance, not affected by Crit or Mastery or anything else, so Haste increases the number of procs. Someone who went all Haste and got their swing timer down to 2.0 would have up to three Maul absorbs every 6 seconds, but taking a page from the Warrior book, I'm thinking that this is a 'nice to have' rather than a 'replaces SD in priority' thing -- when you are about to taunt the boss, hit Maul, and it'll smooth the transition for the healers a little bit sort of thing, or a 'oh hey, soft enrage (cf Garajal) incoming, pop Incarnation/Berserk and use the extra Rage income to reduce your damage that much more' sort of thing.
Also, 5.1 patch did not deliver new boots/belt from August Celestials/Klaxxi. Still 489 gear.
The first things I boosted with my maxed out Justice Points: my Spear of Xuen (which will guarantee that a Qiang will drop this week) and the Searing Words trinket. Still have things to buy with my Valor points.
Preliminary results on Tooth and Claw show that it does, in fact, reduce the damage taken from Stone Guard Melee to zero, a full absorb -- but by its very nature it winds up making it so you have less Savage Defense casts available because you wind up wanting to hit Maul every time the graphic for the proc appears. Over a 6 minute fight, it reduced my average damage taken from Melee swings, week over week, by about 400 points, since I took more damage more often by way of the things I didn't dodge because I wasn't Savage Defense-buffed, but a number of those hits were for less damage. Out of 57 ToC procs I was able to cash 25 of them; this is because I was perpetually clearing my Rage on Savage Defense and Frenzied Regen, so I rarely had any Rage to spare for Maul.
Does that mean that Tooth and Claw isn't useful?
Actually, there's one situation where it seems to be extremely useful -- when you aren't the active tank, like for Feng and Garajal. Because you gain the buff when you hit the boss with a melee swing, and you apply the debuff to the boss for its next melee swing regardless of whether or not you're the tank. So the boss hits the -other- tank for less damage, it counts as an absorb for/on them, and you now have a real reason to hit Maul to spend your excess rage while you're waiting for your turn to tank. It's ... kinda similar to Intervene, then, yes?
Not fully confirmed, but stay tuned until I get some better data. WoL shows absorbs happening, but not for how much just yet, since ToC doesn't seem to hold the normal rules for buffs/debuffs applied to PCs.
Using maul while not actively tanking was always usefull imo for the added damage you do, unless there is high aoe dmg and using FR to heal yourself would be more beneficial, Especially for the 20 seconds after your "tanking turn" ends and you still have high vengeance so FR heals kinda like a ton.
Me personally, i ignore TaC procs while tanking, and i use them to reduce the dmg on the other wank while i am not tanking. On any boss. (well not SG and lei shi and sha of fear normal )
PS: all my experience is from 10 man only. This may differ in 25 but i have no idea.
Nice to hear from you, Tjomek. I was wondering how you were doing these days.
I'm actually having to avoid cashing TaC procs more often than not on fights where you get a big spike and then swap tanks. But this is because I outgear and outthreat my offtanks lately and wind up pulling off of them if I high burn DPS while I'm not tanking (though one of my better bear tanks suggests using Shadowmeld to avoid that...) and sometimes even from white damage / leftover Lacerate ticks.
I'm a big fan of Savage Defense, but I've been seeing more and more tanks skip SD altogether in favor of Frenzied Regen/Maul only -- or Maul-only defensive button presses. Works great in LFR where you have a lot of healers healing you, for sure.
But Tjomek's thoughts are good ones -- when you have full Vengance stacks, a good FR hit can heal for most of your health and help the healers out quite a bit to save you -- especially on fights like Bladelord where you know a big hit is incoming and you can top yourself off easier. Stone Guard is another where if you've got less than a full health bar, FR likely is a better way to go (again, thanks to Tjomek's experience) if you don't want to play RNG roulette by dodging multiple Rend casts in a row.

Quick and dirty notes for 5.2 (based on the patch notes, servers are still down at the time of this writing):
- Thick Hide now reduces the chance to be crit from all damage sources by 6%. Unless NPC mobs can crit you with spells, this seems to be pretty much just a PVP thing.
- Soul of the Forest now gives 10 Rage per Mangle instead of 7. This makes it a bit more attractive to use for rage income.
- 20% buff to armor gain per point of Mastery. But remember that Mastery still only affects Physical attacks.
- Nature's Vigil's cooldown was reduced to 90 seconds rather than 3 minutes, which makes it a lot more attractive to use (but see Nerfs) considering that it'll be up 30 seconds out of every 90.
- Force of Nature trees got buffed in damage, but I seriously doubt that it'll compete with Incarnation for damage unless they buffed it a _lot_.
- Cenarion Ward healing was increased by 100%. This'll bring it more in line with the other healing powers on that tier (Renewal and Nature's Swiftness) and actually might make it better than Renewal for raw healing over those 2 minutes. I'll run some numbers and compare them to the ones I took a couple of weeks ago.
- Frenzied Regneration now scales 10% more efficiently with attack power. It's not a huge buff, but I'll take it.
- Tooth and Claw now scales 10% more efficiently with attack power. Still doesn't make it a replacement for SD on Melee-heavy fights, but every little bit counts, and you should definitely be hitting it to help your co-tank when you aren't the boss's focus.
- Nature's Vigil buff is only 10% damage/healing bonus, so it does half the buff but is usable twice as often. This will also disconnect the massive chain combo of Incarnation+Nature's Vigil, but allows you to hook it up with Berserk when Incarnation is cooldown.
Recommended Changes (aka 'this is what I'll be doing when the servers come up')
- Try taking Cenarion Ward for a spin. With its 30 second cooldown, guaranteed healing on being hit, it makes it more of a utility situational heal for damage spikiness. And it can be cast on other people. It's still not as good as the paladin Sacred Shield, but it's much closer. (I really need to put up that discussion on the various heal tier talent comparisons. Soon!)
- Keep stat priorities the way you have them. None of these changes really affect what you were already doing, though the buff to Mastery will make reforging -to- Mastery more attractive to Passive Defense style tanking.
- Take Nature's Vigil and use it on cooldown, preferrably with Incarnation and/or Berserk on a /castsequence combo. It'll increase your damage output somewhat, but the nerf will cause the raid healing part to be even more negligible than it was before.

Since the launch of 5.2 i have been using Cenarion ward. It is better healing compared to the other 2, doesnt get affected by vengeance (figured some1 should say it ) but it is affected by agility making it a lot stronger during trinket procs, the individual tics can crit so with a rage build it really works well. The only drawback is that it is a HoT, where as NS + HT and renewal are a "o crap" button, Cenarion ward doesnt have the instant save.
Comparison: my current avg ilvl is 512 (648k hp raid buffed)
Renewal : 193k instant off GCD heal
NS + HT : 84k non crit, 160k crit instant on GCD heal
Cenarion ward : depending on procs between 30 and 40k ticks with 60 to 70k crit tics, on GCD but can be pre cast (also, maybe a small detail but this heal is affected by HoTW making it a litle OP during HoTW uptime, i was getting between 180k and 250k ticks hehe)
Yep! I'm getting the same results you are -- been using Cenarion Ward as well, and getting a feel for it before I recommended it on the guide. I _definitely_ miss the 'oh crud' save feel of NS+HT plus the loss of the instant battlerez, but I've been practicing on elites and big dinos, and we finally got Windlord down last week while I was using it, but I only managed to get a couple of casts off because the GCD was getting in the way
What makes Cenarion Ward shine (now) is the 30s cooldown and overall greater output versus Renewal in the same time period. The negative on that is that it is on the GCD, which has meant that sometimes I'll hit it while I'm inside the GCD, think I've hit it, and nothing happens -- in order to use it I've got to stop hitting other buttons and wait for the next GCD to use it, so it feels a little clunky to use when I've gotten so used to a 4-count rotation.
If Vengeance affected CW like it does Sacred Shield, that'd be a slam dunk. As you said, though, Agi trink procs (and Dancing Steel) -do- affect it, so trying to time it during one of those procs is a bigger heal. Probably the biggest bang for the buck from it comes from using it in Resto, though. :}
I'm just getting back into the game and Guardian is my first tank class. I've read through the thread, but there are a couple things I don't quite know yet, and I'd appreciate any feedback.
1. Is Incarnation the generally accepted level 60 choice now? I've been running with Soul of the Forest, and while I like the rage, my crit's getting up to the point where I'm not sure how useful 3 extra rage on a Mangle is for me. I like the idea of Incarnation, but the uptime is so low I'm having a hard time seeing how it can be that much of a benefit mitigation-wise.
2. Your guide suggests gemming red into Agility: is 1 Agi really worth more than 2 crit/haste? I'm still at the point where I generally have to gem into exp/hit to remain at caps, but with the double itemization on secondary stat gems and the 50% boost in bear form, it seems like Agi's not that great a stat.
3. Why do we use the dodge cap for expertise rather than going all the way to the parry cap? With the way expertise works now, we reduce parry at the exact same rate we reduce dodge, so going from 7.5% to 15% is exactly the same improvement as 0 to 7.5%, and it's the same amount of rating. Parry only applies when we're in front of the boss, but if we're not OTing and waiting for a swap we'll be there, and if we're waiting for the swap we're not as worried about Rage. The Dodge cap seems like an arbitrary place to stop.
4. What health number should I be shooting for for various raid tiers? I'm not planning on gemming Stamina, but wrist, shoulder, and leg enchants all give me a choice of stam versus agi, and I'm not clear what's better here.
1. depends if you want passive rage gen or controlled periods of high rage to deal with specific mechanics.
2. Agility converts into Dodge and crit at nigh 100% when in bear form and fully buffed, so theirs nigh no difference between an agility gem and a crit/dodge gem apart from the extra AP agilty gives
3. you don't go for dodge cap, you go for enough expertise to be comfortable or 15% whichever comes first
4. unles you under gear the instance you should have enough health for any given instance so 463 for MSV, 476for HoF/ToES, 496 for ToT normal. you might need to waggle a stam trinket or two for some fights. if you under gear you will need more stam.

What teng said is mostly true but
2. i will have to disagree with. geming crit outperforms geming agi for the simple fact that you get 2 crit rating for 1 agi from gems, last i checked agi was better than crit but not to a ratio higher than 2/1
and i would add to 3. that going for exp hard cap is nice but hard to get with current gear without sacrificing a lot of other usefull stats, once your gear ilvl goes higher you will notice that getting 15% exp will become easyer
2: Agi gives you base AP/crit/dodge, which starts your 'floor' a little higher when it comes to initial threat gen and holding onto stuff on after a taunt easier. I suggest it for red mainly because you can't get agi from any other source other than socket bonuses, and there's nothing wrong with going agi/crit, agi/hit, agi/expertise, or agi/stam if you need to. You'll find that there will be sweet spots where you can squeeze over the next point of crit if you swap an agi gem for a agi/crit, but 40.1% crit is the same as 40.85% Another minor side effect of Agi is that it'll bump your spellpower up -- which helps if you took Cenarion Ward or Nature's Swiftness+Healing Touch, but not so much if you took Renewal.
3: I'm working with ~15% expertise now as a test, but when I'm the OT, I'll switch around behind the boss if it's a long pause between taunts (Ji-kun, for example) -- it's a question of whether or not you can live with a handful of parries or not from the front versus a higher crit/haste. I'm leaning towards changing the recommendation to 'try for 15%', but it's wasted reforge/gems if you can change positions. I'm on the fence about this, and in the beginning (heroic 430 gear) it was impossible to get to 15% expertise without seriously gimping your crit/haste in the process. I have an OT bear who is sitting 15% lower on crit, and I rip threat off of her without trying very hard and generate almost double her rage from Primal Fury.
Some hard numbers: With 7.28% hit, 10.16% expertise on Tortos (had to double stack stam trinkets to avoid getting eaten alive by bats) 8 minute fight:
Attack: 64 crit (42.7%), 51 Hit (34.0%), 33 Glancing: (22%), 1 Parry (0.7%), 1 Missed (0.7%).
4. MgV: 400K. HoF: 455K. ToES: 525K. ToT: 575K (600 on Tortos), bare minimums based on empirical data. I've never had to gem for stam except on Tortos.
Hope this helps...

Um, why do we even care about our DPS when we're behind the boss? if we're behind the boss we don't generally have much vengenace so our DPS is gimped anyway. Surely it would be better to maximise our DPS whislt tanking even at the cost of of losing some whilst not tanking. Failing to conect a mangle backed by 5k vengeance is not much of a DPS loss compared to failing to connect a mangle backed with 250k vengeance, and when you're not tanking you are going to want to back off anyway whilst the other tank ramps up and you vegenace ramps down.
The other tank being ripped off because she's 15% lower on crit is a little unfair; if we assume all other things are equal then its no suprise having more of a beneficial thing make you produce more aggro, if all other things aren't equal wheres it coming from? i higly doubt that the difference is shes lost 15% crit becuase she's gone the to the hit exp caps and you haven't. Are you both playing identically? i highly doubt it unless you're both robots (which would be cool). Anecdotal evidence is anecdotal. same with your "hard numbers"; a single result just isn't statistically meaningful.

She's lower on crit because she went the dodge/stam route and doesn't bother even trying to reforge for crit. :P (And to support your theory, she's at 7.5% expertise.)
To answer your question 'why does a tank need to care about their DPS?'
In a good raiding guild, your DPS are usually good-to-great DPS. They kill the meter and pesky things like add phases don't slow ya down much. A tank is supposed to be about survival and connecting with the boss, so misses/parries/dodges don't help the situation, hence the argument for the full 15% expertise, which I do, in fact, support, just not quite officially yet. The DPS should be a side effect, not the goal, in most cases.
I raid with a guild that doesn't have a lot of heavy DPS, but they're the friends I've raided with for years; every ounce of DPS counts for us when we're having to use three healers where two good ones will suffice, and a good third of the DPS we have are sometimes closer to the tanks' DPS than the other DPS -- or lower than mine. (And I'm not talking about just the gimmick fights.) When we're hitting enrage timers, I'll take any advantage we can get in the damage department.
So for us, having a tank that can carry the load of a medium-weight DPS while being non-squishy at the same time is one of the things that has gotten our guild as far as it has gotten. And yes, while I'm not tanking the boss, my Vengeance is slowly ticking down over the next 20 seconds, but I'm still hitting the boss, refreshing my Lacerate and Thrash, and otherwise contributing to the fight damage while it's ticking down.
And you're right. Anecdotal data is exactly that -- those were the numbers I put up there were from last night's run that I'd just gotten out of before writing the post, so I had them in my Skada log. I'm not seeing a huge difference between 13% and 15%, but I do see one between 7.5% and 13%. I'm at 14.87% expertise with my normal trinks, but when I had to switch 'em out for extra stam, it dropped a bit for the one fight.
I'm pushing closer to 15% expertise these days as promised, and have been for the last few weeks. I mostly like what I see, even if I miss the extra crit. I am collecting as much data as possible before I change the guide over, but I'm definitely not against you on this. :}
you've missed my point Tielyn.
why do we even care about our DPS when we're behind the boss?
I know that that tanks do more DPS when thye have high vengenace. we rarely have high vengeance when the boss isn't attacking us. the only time we would is shortly after a tnak swap, in which case we need to throttle down to not take aggro back. justifying not being expertise cappped becuae it does nothing when tyour not tanking is pretty much saying you'd rather have a low vengeance mangle crit and high vengeance mangle parried than have a low vengeance manlge hit and a high vengeance mangle hit. form astrict DPS stand point you might aswell say that if you're under the caps you should pop berserk when your not tanking as it will only connect 100% of the time from back there. That's crazy logic.

Nah. I'm not saying that at all. All I'm saying is that I am, in fact, repositioning myself when I'm not actively tanking, especially on fights where you don't want to be in front of the boss with the other tank (Tsu Long and Lei Shi, for example). Yes, I have to be careful not to rip back off my OT, but a good OT should be able to hold off of me by doing their rotation right so I shouldn't have to throttle back for more than a couple of seconds after they taunt, as our Vengeance is going in opposite directions. I moonlight with another guild who has an equally geared DK, and I have near-zero threat issues while keeping up my full bore rotation (She's also hit and expertise capped. )
I am agreeing with you that the 15% hard cap is important. Have been for a bit. But I'm less adamant about it being so important that it should be done first and foremost without at least some consideration towards crit (the source of half of my Rage) in there between the soft cap and hard cap.
I pop Berserk when I know I'll have the boss for a bit. Maybe 4% of my Mangles might miss if I'm not expertise capped, but right now I'm as close to it as I can be, so maybe 1% of them miss, but they crit 6% less often. I care about my DPS the whole fight, not only when I'm tanking.
Well, I've swapped over to Incarnation, and I basically haven't looked back. It's a boatload of threat, pretty much guarantees I won't drop for its duration, and allows me to pop a useful cooldown every 90 seconds in addition to saving my tank CDs for fight-specific issues. My only issue is that I can't figure out what I'm supposed to be doing with it on AoE fights. Generally my rotation is Mangle-Swipe-Thrash-Swipe, and it seems like with Incarnation all I could really do would be changing that to Mangle-Swipe-Swipe-Swipe when I don't need to refresh Thrash. Should I just be avoiding popping Incarnation when the fight mechanics don't permit Mangle spam?
It's good to hear you guys agree on the 15% cap: I was having a hard time understanding why the first 7.5% is more important than the second, aside from OT considerations. Is there a specific crit number that once you hit, you should start moving towards expertise? Is it worth reforging haste into expertise on pieces where we don't need other reforges?
I'm not sure how convinced I am on Agility. I've had a heck of a time digging up numbers for what Agility converts to, but everything I find says 1259.52 Agi per 1% crit and 951.16 Agi per 1% dodge. For ratings, 600 crit rating per 1% crit and 885 dodge rating per 1% dodge. I don't think there's anything that directly affects Agility besides Mark of the Wild's 5% boost, and nothing that affects Crit rating besides Bear Form's 50% buff (and nothing that affects Dodge, we're just gonna look at them both pre-DR).
You can do the calculations yourself to verify, but I'm getting .4000% crit off of 160 crit rating versus .1334% crit off of 160 Agi, and .1766% dodge off of 160 Agi versus .1808% dodge off of 160 dodge. This means that if there was a Crit-Dodge gem (I'm aware they're both yellow) we'd actually get more mitigation from gemming that than pure Agi. And the guide doesn't suggest gemming for dodge anyway, so we'd probably stick a 320 Rating gem in there for .8% crit, which is a pretty significant 2% crit boost off of 2-3 gems. That's about as significant as gemming choices get. As far as bonus power on Cenarion Ward, I'm getting about 500 extra healing per Cenarion Ward with an extra 160 Agi, and 450 extra healing per NS'd Healing Touch. I'm less confident on those numbers, but if they're right they're basically rounding errors on your health bar.

Felipe Massa says it is "impossible to explain" why Red Bull failed to convert their qualifying pace into dominant display in Australia.
Sebastian Vettel was unbeatable the dry practice sessions at Albert Park on Friday and unsurprisingly claimed pole position with team-mate Mark Webber starting next to him on the grid.
However, the RB9's much vaunted pace wasn't visible on race day and triple World Champion Vettel had to settle for third behind race winner Kimi Raikkonen and Fernando Alonso while Webber was down in sixth place.
Massa, who finished fourth at Melbourne, says it was bemusing to see Red Bull struggle for pace come the race.
"I have no idea how to explain it," the Brazilian is quoted as saying by Autosport.
"If you look at last year, they had an incredible car in qualifying, and in the races it was still incredible, but less so.
"The year before, the same. It is the way they build the car.
"Since 2007 we've never really had the most incredible car in qualifying. The race was always better than qualifying and this is just the direction of our car. Why? It is impossible to explain."
Lotus and Raikkonen made the most of Red Bull's struggles as they won the race on the back of a two-stop strategy compared to their rivals' three stops.
Massa, though, warns it is too early in the season to draw conclusions.
"There were a lot of surprises in this race," he said. "With our car it was impossible to do two stops. Kimi could do two stops and that was a fantastic job," he said.
"We need to wait for a couple of different tracks because maybe one car will work in one direction on one track for degradation, and maybe it will work differently on another track.
"Lotus has stayed in a good direction with the tyres [in Australia] and this made a big difference."

Yeah we don't crap in the first world; most of us would actually have no idea what that was emanating from Ajmal's backside. Why isn't it roses and rainbows like what happens here? PEWS's retort to Ganeshran on Daemon's picture depicting Ajmal's excreta
If the tie breaker is a cry-off I'm sure Bangladesh would be favourites heading into it.

Bangladesh had won me over with their performance but this cry baby stuff has totally turned me off. You gave a good account of yourself, now don't ruin it by being ****ing ****s about the result. You lost fair and square.

It almost reminds me of something Zaltzman would write in his blog, to take the proverbial.
12+ years in international cricket and Bangladesh still haven't grown past acting like children.

Oh dear, toys out of pram time.
Enayet Hossain Siraj, chairman of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) cricket operations committee, told reporters on Saturday that Cheema had deliberately blocked batsman Mahmudullah in the final over.
He said the BCB would demand five penalty runs which if granted could force the ACA to reverse the result.
We have seen video footage of the incident repeatedly. It is clear that Cheema blocked Mahmudullah deliberately, Siraj said.
Bangladesh bitchery aside, is there any precedent for overturning a result after the fact?
I know the Ovalgate test was briefly declared a "no result" before England were readjudged as the winners, but are there any that stuck?
Can't see how anything can be changed. You only have to look at incorrect decisions for dismissals during games that aren't changed after the match even if proven 100% incorrect.

Beware the evils of Kit-Kats - they're immoral apparently.
Indians can't bowl - Where has the rumour come from as I myself and many indian friends arwe competent fast bowlers ?
With the English bid I said: Let us be brief. If you give back the Falkland Islands, which belong to us, you will get my vote. They then became sad and left
their fans have such chip on their shoulders I really fear the day they start winning regularly. On their forum the Bangladeshi team was being compared to Brazil 82 and Holland 74.
