I agree that things can't be done in a vacuum, and that tank balance has to be kept in mind. But keeping balance in mind when making an adjustment isn't the same as using it to justify a change, which some of the arguments seem to do.
That said, I think that Masteries in general could probably use some overhauling, as I suspect that by T13, Warriors will be coming up on the mess that Paladins are currently in, and I worry that Blizzard will do something lazy and obvious like Sunwell Radiance or just add in a steep Diminishing Return, which makes stats meaningless at a certain point, and we all go back to Stam stacking like in Wrath.
Except they don't even feel the same to people who have objectively played both classes any more than any CD feels like any other CD.
Weren't we in agreement in Wrath that STDs and CDs were the one place where tank "homogenization" was generally ok? What has changed?
You also claimed it was another "change pushing us closer and closer to being a warrior". Warriors and paladins play absolutely nothing alike except they both use shields. You have been making this claim since Wrath and it is still laughably ignorant now as it was then.
But the bulk of my displeasure is not what this change does, but what it doesn't do. Ours remains the only hard-capped Mastery.
And it is not supposed to do that. Funny story, I logged into the PTR, copied a premade paladin over, and checked T12 stats (premades are given full T12). Wanna know what my CTC was? 96.4% with kings up. I readily concede some pieces may not have been the general use ones but still, we had some wiggle room. Blizzard even hinted the problem wasn't going to be a problem in T12 so they pushed it to 4.3. So we can happily keep stacking mastery blindly through Firelands.
I thought one of the reasons for mastery was a dial they could easily turn for balance?
Without needing to hit a HoPo finisher to maintain Holy Shield there is now no incentive to NOT sit on HoPo
People keep saying this, doesn't make it true. But to play along...
There is no reason for a warrior to use anything but T-clap and demo shout if threat isn't an issue. There is no reason for a druid to use anything but maul and demo roar if threat isn't an issue. There isn't a reason for DKs to.... well sorry DKs.
Except, ya know, if people want to play the best they possible can and not settle for "meh, whatever". I called you on this before and you claimed you weren't supporting the playstyle but the fact that you continually bring it up after the aforementioned reasoning makes me doubt you.
I doubt any of that. You fear every change or at least your responses on the forums leads one to believe that.
As of 2 days ago when I was last on the PTR it is just a generic block animation.
Actually just checked it, it was changed to just a bright flash around your shield.
But at least the new AD graphic is amazing :D.

I'm a little confused with the devs comments. When they say we needed less passive midigation, wasn't Holy Shield our only passive stat or are they taking all of our avoidence stats in there? If HS was our only one then how is taking that away a good thing. I'm not really knowledgable about all of the theorycrafting but looking at the changes it seems like we will be taking more damage but they still aren't fixing how our mastery is scaling. Maybe I'm missing something but I'm just confused by their response didn't completely clear it up for me.
Pushing a button you didn't push before is not having more buttons to push? Can I ask in what universe this even remotely makes sense.
You wanna know what's clunky? Having to use blood runes for DR but not wanting to use blood runes. That is clunky. Nothing a paladin does is clunky. You press a button, and the effect it causes is exactly the effect you want. The rotation flows with some spells improving other spells and some spells making other spells actually usable.
Clunky doesn't mean stuff you don't like despite how much you try to use that as a definition.
What was dynamic about CS, something, CS, something, CS, WoG? What was dynamic about our spec defined spell being used when about half your other abilities were on CD? What was dynamic about having absolutely no reason to not mindlessly hit the next button you know was going to be next 5 mins beforehand?
The answer to every single one of those questions is absolutely nothing.
lolwut? The paladin playstyle is the best it has ever been. You are not even making sense.
It will add exactly what paladins have been begging for, to play an active role in their mitigation or at least that is the generic response paladins slammed the forums with when WoG was given a CD. "We want to feel like we are in control of our survival, even if it is nothing more than an illusion" was their battlecry. It was repeated so many times I thought someone went crazy and bought 4 accounts with nothing but paladins on them.
Thank you for proving all the insults I have made at you. It is not really ad hominem when you call someone awful not to disprove their claims (reasoning and logic do a fine enough job at that) but because they are just awful.
Macro it to everything. Play poorly. Half ass it because you can. Just don't come to the forums misusing simple words like clunky and dynamic in a poor attempt to make a point. At least try to make sense when you converse with people, at the very least Fean is kind enough to do that.
Actually we will be basically fine for this tier without a change to mastery. If anything, we get to have our cake and eat it in t12 at the level where people will actually consider their choices of stats. Which is why it's not being prioritised anyway.
Do you think it's so awesome that you'll barely noticing it doing anything most of the time? I'm not saying it's not a minor buff when used correctly, but there's hardly anything awesome or exciting about it.
Do you notice having up or not now is basically the same idea though.
It will be more noticeable bouncing between 30% and 50% DR from block and like you said can be a small buff when used correctly. So outside of keyboard space, what isn't sexay about a small buff you can feel and the feeling that you are contributing to your own survival?
can someone point to a current fight where simply macroing it to go off every 30 seconds would not result in about the same benefit as having it as a separate key?
cause thats the issue i have with shield block... i can never find a good reason to save it for the 6 second spell damage reduction. (edited) meant to say, its hard in most cases to time it to land when needed.

It just feels very, very meh to me. I'd almost rather the devs—if they have their hearts set on changing something—go back to giving HS charges. Make the charges more dynamic and something to monitor like other procs. This is just a boring change and feels more maintenancy than anything. It's a tedious change as it is now and not one I'm going to enjoy monitoring while raid leading.
Edited by Marrs on 6/17/2011 9:04 AM PDT
Halfus. no saving it wont matter, use it right off the bat then as often as you can.
temple. only matters when you jump back to nature to tank his ultimate, and you would be off cooldown most likely anyway, so spam it the rest of the time would be the same result.
mal. spam it if you are adds tank, spam it if you are main tank.
cho'gall. I can see this one, its useless during flames orders, so save it until shadows orders.
nef. useless to save it, spam it.
atramedes. useless to save it except in air phase, spam it when in ground phase.
val and ther, useless to save it except during transitions, spam it.
council. useless to save it except during transitions, spam it.
this is what i mean. in all those fights, the only place that timing will have any real impact is cho'gall, because the rest of those bosses, their bursts are spell damage. the only thing spamming does is cost you some uptime when the bosses are in a transition.
and i edited the 6% thing. 6 second duration is too short in most cases to have any real impact. things like crackle can only be estimated, there is no guarantee you will actually time it right.
a fight like council, assuming you are tanking arion, it would be nice to save it for an uninterrupted lightning blast, or maybe a bad ignatious shield break + flame torrent, but both of those are highly dependent on raid performance.
Understandable, as it is not a super massive ZOMG buff. But aren't we tanks all about stacking small gains.
if they have their hearts set on changing something go back to giving HS charges. Make the charges more dynamic and something to monitor like other procs.
Isn't that just making it more maintenancy though? Would you also not have to monitor the procs drawing your attention from raid leading?
I am just trying to figure out your mindset here.
If it had charges it might be easier to plan ahead on when to use it and what to use it against. I'm not saying the 4.2 version isn't going to be the same as I just described as far as effectiveness, it's just that the 10 second window and 20 sec CD are so short. It really feels like something extra to do for the sake of just pushing a button.
If I had the dev's ears, I'd ask them to nerf the current version of holy shield and give me some extra damage dealing proc to use to be honest. Did I mention I hate healing myself as tank? So yeah, WoG would go away. That's my mindset.
85 Blood Elf Paladin
Buff/nerf has nothing to do with why this is a bad, horrible, and stupid change. We did not need yet another cd. We didn't need yet another warrior-ish ability making it harder and harder to seperate and distinguish between the classes.
Sorry fean but you know me. I love tanking cds and love the thought of having more. Im a fan of the cd tanking model =)
That said i hope they fix our mastery soon.
Puts things into a very interesting perspective for Prot Paladins.
I see no reason to balance my rating for when I dont need the extra DR (and am not using my HS cd). If anything i think we should be balancing our ratings based on when we do need the extra dr (and HS is up) which means the point of where avoidance=mastery went down some.
Seems like an easy choice to me.
Troll! =P
I did some quick math in another thread and the DR (Damage reduction) was about where you find a trinket. Are your trinkets worthless and do you macro them?
My block is 55%.
In comparision to what we have now
(55*.5-55*.4)=5.49% damage reduction
My JC trinket gives me 600 dodge
at 1400 dodge i have 7.36% diminished dodge
With my trinket popped its a 6.12% dodge increase
Still think its worthless and gonna waste it by macroing it?
Its a very nice buff.
Its not a weak cd. Its on par with a trinket.

I don't like the change. 40% blocked all the time is far better than 30% blocked most of the time and 50% blocked some of the time. I have enough cooldown abilities to remember to use currently - I don't need another one. What an @ssinine waste of developer time.
Why would they want to make things more difficult for the least popular job type in the most popular PvE group content level?

You not being good enough at using cooldowns isn't a good reason for Holy Shield to be passive. My Shaman is bad at using Mana Tide effectively, so clearly the best solution is to remove Mana Tide and just give me a sizeable regen boost.
When did everyone agree that tanking should be about having more and more CDs. I just think it's lazy design. Someone else said it best when they compared it to having a 3rd trinket. For me, it's a play-style difference that you like and I don't. No need to call someone else a bad though. Keep it civil.

It sounds like the truck might be equipped with some kid of BlueTooth or wireless technology. In this case there is not a whole lot you can do other than try moving the monitor to a place with the least interference. You can also try moving the transmitter as close to the monitor as you can for the best signal. You may need the extension cable, # PKCORD, to accomplish this task.

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a Clean reinstall. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

Note: You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.

Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.

After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).

Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:

Windows:

C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox

C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox

Mac: Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.

Linux: If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see Install Firefox on Linux. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.

Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:

Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.

Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.

Please report back to see if this helped you!

Hello,

Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.

(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)

 On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.

 On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the option key while starting Firefox.

 On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)

 Or open the Help menu and click on the Restart with Add-ons Disabled... menu item while Firefox is running.

Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"

If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article for that.

To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.

When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.

Thank you.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
I looked on the wiki and searched, but these are such common terms that I can't pinpoint an answer to what I am sure is a remarkably stupid question:
if a font comes with both book and roman faces, what is the difference in use intended to be? Is book optimized for a particular size? It appears a bit heavier...
I'm looking specifically at Didot Elder as an example.
Books weights usually (but not always) have less contrast than their roman counterparts. This makes them more readable for running text.
There are some old threads with lots of details about this. Try using Google with the site:typophile.com keyword to find them—the Typophile search engine doesn't work very well.
Here you go:
roman, book, light - when to use?
Book-Regular weight conflict
Choosing the right weight: Text vs. Regular
Book v Roman!? Why fight - just use a Book-Roman...
Thanks-- the search was more fruitful once I knew that roman and regular were often synonymous...
Using 'roman' to refer to a specific font within a family, e.g. synonymous with regular, seems really dumb to me, since as an adjective it could be legitimately applied to any weight of upright type in the roman style (as distinct from blackletter, civilité, etc.). A 'book' font in this style is just as much roman as any other weight.
I think some of the confusion in the naming of fonts within a family is because some of the terms refer to weight (e.g. light, regular, bold), whereas others I regard more as optical size descriptors (e.g. book, text). When I see a font described as book or text, I expect that it's meant to be used at around 10-12 points in body text. So you could have book (or text) light, book regular, book bold. John Hudson is right: "roman" is simply a style descriptor--i.e. bold roman, bold italic. If there is no style descriptor, it's assumed to be roman.

Game 1 loss a heartbreaker for Bruins
It was a heartbreaker for the Boston Bruins, who played the perfect road game for 59 minutes and 41 seconds, only to see Vancouver forward Raffi Torres turn hero, scoring with 18.5 seconds left to give the Canucks a 1-0 victory Wednesday in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals at Rogers Arena.
For in-depth playoff analysis and commentary, head over to Inside Hockey. Click here to sign up for their email newsletter.
The game quickly turned into a goaltender's duel, with Vezina finalists Roberto Luongo and Tim Thomas each playing outstanding games. Although Luongo made 36 saves for the shutout and the win, Thomas was called upon to make the more spectacular saves. Among them was the snuffing of a Jannik Hansen breakaway attempt early in the third period.
Ultimately, it was Hansen again who played a key role in the only goal. The Canucks forward set up Torres for the winning score after Ryan Kesler made a gritty play to chip the puck into the Bruins' zone and get the puck rink-wide to Hansen.
"They were able to keep it in at the blueline," Thomas said. "Hansen was able to get into a spot where I was starting to cut down the angle because he was in a dangerous enough spot that I had to take that shot. And that's when he was able to make a pass to Torres cutting to the net. I didn't even know Torres was there."
Thomas insisted that the last-minute goal wasn't going to get his team down heading into Game 2.

"At this point of the year, it doesn't matter what the score was — you either win the game or lose the game," he said. "We're going to have to bounce back and win the next one."
The Bruins and the Canucks looked evenly matched when skating 5 on 5 coming into the game, but while Vancouver's power play had been dangerous in the playoffs, Boston has been struggling to get its man advantage clicking. However, neither team found success on the power play in Game 1, each going 0 for 6.
"Our power play was better tonight than it had been in a while," Bruins coach Claude Julien said. "We spent a lot of time, we had some shots, had some opportunities, had some chances. We didn't score. But I think the same thing happened on the other side. As long as we're able to stay on even terms with them when it comes to special teams, we're OK with that."
The teams also tried to send a message with plenty of hard hits, and pushing and shoving after whistles. Apparently, things got downright nasty. Patrice Bergeron claimed that Alex Burrows bit him on the hand during a scrum at the end of the first period.
"He did [bite me]. He cut me a little bit on my finger," Bergeron said. "I'm not going to complain about it. I'll let the league do its job. We were speaking French to each other and I asked him why he did it, and he said that I put my finger in his mouth and he had to do it. I don't mind the rough play as long as it's pushing and shoving and stuff like that. But biting? Come on."
Bruins power forward Milan Lucic also was front and center when things got rough. The Vancouver native was turned head over heels by a low hip check from Dan Hamhuis. However, while Lucic skated away after the play, the Canucks defenseman headed to the dressing room and didn't return. It's unclear whether Hamhuis will return for Game 2, but the Canucks remain confident after getting the win while down one skater.
Out in front
The Canucks took Game 1 of the Stanley Cup, beating the Bruins 1-0. We've got the best shots from the game right here.
"Going down to five (defensemen) midway through the second, with the intensity that was out there, was obviously taxing on our group," Canucks coach Alain Vigneault said. "But I thought our forwards did a good job of helping our defense out. I thought the five guys that handled the workload did a real good job of sharing the time. Our best period was our third period. We were down to five (defensemen) at that time."
For Boston it's heartbreaking to lose in the final seconds, but the Bruins are confident that with a little more hard work, they'll figure out a way to beat Luongo and take the series back to Beantown all tied up.
"We did a lot of good things tonight. We've got to bear down," Lucic said. "When we're going to the net with a purpose of not being denied, that's when we're finding those loose pucks. This isn't the time of year to get down or discouraged. We played hard today, but obviously we're going to have to play a bit harder if we want to get a win out of here."

No not if your employment is at-will, which is the presumption under California law in the absence of an employment agreement.
However an employer will typically
provide a business justification of some kind when they terminate an employee.

|THE BERLIN IRON BRIDGE COMPANY, CORRUGATED IRON DOORS AND SHUTTERS—Continued. were all placed in exactly the same exposure, and the fires were lighted. It soon began to burn fiercely, but for the first half hour it did not show itself on any of the shutters, but so great was the heat the walls commenced cracking. The first signs of giving way under this severe heat was shown in about half an hour, by the wood shutter covered with tin, which commenced to emit smoke and wood oil through the holes in the tin where the latches and stays were bolted on. The corrugated iron shutters at this time showed no effect of the heat, except the single thick shutter, which became quite warm so that the paint commenced to smoke. The box door was so cool that a person could hold their hand on it. At the end of an hour, the wood shutter covered with tin, which had been for some time throwing off streams of smoke through the cracks, showed unmistakable signs of giving out, and had it not been for the heavy iron bands forming the outer frame, it would have fallen from its place. The single thickness corrugated iron shutter was, at the same time, so hot that the paint was all burned off, and the others began to show the intense heat by the burning paint on the outside, but still held their places, and beyond the burning paint showed no signs of distress. It now became evident that the wood shutter covered with tin could not withstand this severe heat much longer, and soon the flames were seen to eat through it at the top, showing that the inside cover of tin had been burned off, and the shutter, as a fire protection, was useless. The corrugated shutters held their places firmly and closely to the wall. At the end of three hours the fire had nearly subsided, and the shutters were all opened out for examination. On the inside of the wood shutter, covered with tin, a large hole had been burned through the inside covering, and when the shutter was opened, about one-half of the inside wood work dropped out, a mass of burned and charred wood. The shutter had been evidently held together by the wrought iron band about the outside, and the strap pieces forming the hinges which were all firmly bolted through and through with large washers inside—a form of construction which the superintendent informed us they alone use on shutters of this kind, and without which the shutters, no doubt, would have failed completely to do the duty. As it was, it came out of the fire in a very damaged and useless condition, while the corrugated iron shutters were, apparendy, as good as new, except the single thickness shutter, which was warped a very little on one lower corner, but not enough to allow the fire to leak through. The test was witnessed by several, but it is to be much regretted that it had not been more generally advertised, so that more of our large manufacturing companies, to whom fire proof construction is such an important item, could have been represented. The test was very satisfactory indeed, as showing merits of the corrugated iron shutters over the wood covered with tin, although for moderate exposure these latter stood a good test. The building with the shutters still attached is to be left standing, just as they now are, and parties interested in fire proof shutters can see them if they wish." EAST BERLIN, CONNECTICUT, U. S.

Why We Fight
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
This 2005 documentary film explores a half-century of U.S. foreign policy from World War II to the Iraq War.
It starts with the 1961 Farewell Address of Dwight Eisenhower, who warned that the political and corporate interests had become alarmingly entangled in the business of war as a form of the so-called "military-industrial complex."
The United States of America is drifting dangerously far from her founding principles toward a more imperial and self-distructing future with an ever-increasing defence budget.
Later in the film, the director reveals an evil-force as a form of the "military-industry-Congress-thinktank complex."
The title sounds quite sarcastic because it refers to the World War II-era propaganda movies commissioned by the U.S. Government to justify their decision to enter the war against the Axis Powers.
If you view the film, you will certainly come to undestand who is making war for whom.
Incredible movie. War for profit! What an outrage. Let us take back democracy from the multinational profiteers, dealers in death, before it is too late. It may already be too late. The politicians of the most powerful nation on earth (US spends more on military than the rest of the world combined) are already under the thumb of the arms manufacturers.
an edge of your seat documentary, every section is more shocking than the last. War affects us all and the military indsustrial complex is a driver of it. This film is a must see. A brave exploration of this too often hidden problem.
A fascinating subject is well presented in this film. The degree to which the military-industrial complex pervades the workings of the United States is truly frightening, and 'Why We Fight' gives valuable insight into this.
The companion website features a 70-odd-page study guide to accompany the film.
Very interesting prospective on why US fights

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is often characterized by multiple low lethality suicide attempts triggered by seemingly minor incidents, and less commonly by high lethality attempts that are attributed to impulsiveness or comorbid major depression. The relationships among life events, impulsiveness, and type of suicidal behavior has hardly been studied in BPD and mood disorders. This study compared depressed attempters with and without BPD to identify specific suicide precipitants and risk factors in BPD and their relationship to severity of suicidal behavior. Attempters with comorbid BPD and major depressive disorder (MDD) had a higher number of lifetime suicide attempts; made their first attempt at a younger age; reported more interpersonal triggers; and had higher levels of lifetime aggression, hostility, and impulsivity, compared with attempters with major depression only. Environmental triggers of attempts in BPD are more likely to be interpersonal stressors. Lethality of attempts in BPD plus MDD is equal to that in MDD only, indicating that the seriousness of precipitants is unrelated to the lethality of the suicidal behavior. The differences between groups suggest that risk assessment and treatment should target both depression and personality disorder in those with combined illness.

"I had been looking for funeral thank you notes were I could have my own personal message printed on the inside. . . these were perfect. With the photo, name and date added to the cover, they also served as a keepsake for all that attended, and I received many compliments on them!"
"I have been using Tiny Prints for my Christmas cards for several years now and have also had Thank You and Memorial Cards done. I like the classic templates, fonts and colors. Their products are consistently high quality and the customer service is exceptional. Tiny Prints is my "go to" for creating special cards and messages for special occasions."
"Ordered these (not as "thank you" but as a "hello!" note) for my 11 year-old niece's b-day. She's not into flower and typical girly stuff, so this design was perfect for her. It came out beautiful. I do wish, though, that TinyPrints would offer boxes for their products. The "presentation" factor for the stationary as a gift isn't great. I'm going to pull it all out of the plastic & wrap in a ribbon, but wish there was a proper sized box that I could buy in which my niece could keep the stationary."
"I had been looking to buy blank funeral thank you cards on Amazon and at the bottom of the screen there was a referral to TinyPrints.com. So, I started just browsing through options and within a short time I had located a beautiful blue design (she loved blue) and had our Thank You card perfected and ready to go. I clicked print on Monday and the cards arrived on Wednesday - fantastic. What we produced aren't just Thank You cards, they are amazingly beautiful and poignant cards that reflect the beauty of our mother."
"thank you, they are perfect, sweet and to the point, they will be just the right size for thank you notes. We love them."
