Divine Plea
Following a massive outcry on the official forums, Elitist Jerks, and pretty much every paladin site in existence, Blizzard changed Divine Plea to only decrease healing by -20%, but it is now a dispellable buff.
To be honest, I always assumed it was dispellable. Every other paladin ability is.
Infusion of Light
No changing on Infusion of Light. Holy is still looking very boring.
Honestly, there's nothing to look forward to in Holy. I macro Divine Favor and Divine Illumination to HL11, that's how boring those two abilities are. Holy Shock is kind of cool, but it's been lackluster for so long, it's hard to get enthusiastic. And even then, without IoL, HS loses a lot of its new shine.
You look at Ret, and you have Vengeance, Crusader Strike, and Divine Storm to look forward to. In Protection, Avenger's Shield is more exciting than all of Holy combined. You get to throw your shield at people like Captain America! Never gets old. (Though, the 10s daze is a little excessive. Takes the mobs a bit too long to get to you, and the fighting to actually start.)
JoW bug/nerf
If this is intentional, it is a big nerf to JoW. However, I sort of see the logic behind it. JoW is a very powerful buff that only a paladin can provide. Blizzard is trying to move away from buffs which only come from one class. If JoW had remained unchanged, it's quite possible that having a paladin would be mandatory for any raid content.
It is a severe hit to an ability that we love. But Blizzard's goal of making it easier to form a raid--being able to bring people because they are more skilled or are friends, instead of bringing them for their buffs--is more important than JoW being powerful.
On the other hand, I don't think this change should apply to JoL. Healing scales in a way that mana regeneration does not.

Until Heroism is given to a second class there is no possible way to argue that any nerf to unique utility is justified because of the class homogenization.

I agree, the decrease made sense.
I'm not sure what to think about JoL. Its healing has always seemed weak. Whether it affects all melee, every 4sec, or just affects one random melee, every 4sec, I suspect it will still be weak healing.

I'm biased to JoL, because it's been essential for me on a couple fights. In particular, Void Reaver without JoL would have been impossible (no priests, shamans).
It's weak, but it's one of the very few ways we have of healing several people at the same time.

Why not change to this build: http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?paladin=052320502033012302130000000503200523101300531000000000000000000000000000000000

The real underlying problem is that the holy tree for paladins is provides nothing new in the way of holy play style. Specing holy gains you an instant attack/heal, Beacon of light, and some other efficeny tools. The other talents are medicore fillers that you get depending if your a pve or a pvp healer. Blizz really needs to rework the whole holy tree because something is very wrong if people want to spec deep ret for healing.
- 3:09 AM, October 02, 2008
- Revaan said...
Without changing IoL back to its original state, I see no reason to put any of my new talent points into Holy come the new patch. That was going to be the new talent that really worked well with and for the spec, and it's like Blizzard took it out back and shot it.
- 4:49 AM, October 02, 2008
- andrew said...
I think a step in the right direction for Blizzard the holy tree is to combine both of the judgment talents into 1 5 point talent. Then give use both the orginal aoe hot version of beacon of light and the current two target healing buff version of beacon of light.
In my opinion they really screwed up with BC two great heal spells that would be been great on paladins when to priets as base abilities. Prayer of Mending and Binding heal. Either or maybe both of those heals would have worked better as talented holy paladin heal spells.

Are you referring to the change to Judgement of the Wise (JotW) or Judgement of Wisdom (JoW)?
With all these new names they can all get confusing after a while. I'm thinking you meant JotW though.

- Taraske said...
You just need to browse the ej forums to see the state the holy tree is at. People are discussing about going 28/0/43, 28/43/0 or 15/43/13 for healing. And tbh, if no major changes to deep holy are incoming I see myself either speccing 28/0/43 or 28/43 for either an offensive healer with quite some utility or a defensive caster with huge crits (the sta->sd and +30% crit heals are nice).
It has the nice side effect that leveling is a lot faster and you can heal/dps/tank with a gear swap.
Most hilarious thing I have seen is the suggestion to go 20/0/51 and go for hunter mail with int, ap and crit on it for a true hibrid.
And divine plea sure does not make me want to skip out on jotw. Even in its current form its about 900 mp/5, do I say no to that? Especially not in the arena, where its an easy mana recovery mechanism.
- 7:20 AM, October 02, 2008
- Taraske said...
One thing to add:
is anyone else dreading warrior pally mirror matches? Or pally lock ones? With divine plea those outlast matches can take a reeeeaaaaallllly long time...
If two holy paladins are the last 2 standing its more of a who dcs first match...
- 7:26 AM, October 02, 2008
- Rohan said...
Galoheart, no, I mean Judgement of Wisdom. It's currently proccing once per 4s for the entire raid. Previously it was proccing once per 4s per person.
- 7:37 AM, October 02, 2008
- Galoheart said...
Oh Ok. I guess i must have missed that change then. Good to know also.

Does IoL stack with Light's Grace? If so, then wouldn't HL still be instant cast from IoL as long as Light's Grace was up?
- 3:19 PM, October 02, 2008
- Rohan said...
IoL only reduces the cast time by 1.0 seconds now. It's a *big* nerf.
Base - IoL - LG = 2.5 - 1.0 - 0.5 = 1.0s

Does anyone think they will actually get paladins right by the time Wotlk is released?
This shotgun to the paladinface every week is getting old and for them to continue with the stationary heal spamming healbot paladins is just plain obtuse.
They need to get Holy some truly innovative talents, and not just some nice to have, but dont need driveby talents. And is it that hard? What do you expect a fully holy paladin to be? I would say they should be just as pew pew as a mage and perhaps at the cost of their physical prowess and defense.
- 7:02 PM, October 02, 2008
- andrew said...
problem with holy is that there is no spec defining heal spell to it. priets have coh/lightwell/pennance. shamans have earth shield riptide. druids have swiftmend/wildgrowth. holy paladins just have tools to make their 2 heals better.

Water resource infrastructure not adequately funded, report says
Wednesday - 10/31/2012, 12:04pm EDT
As the East Coast slowly begins to dry out after Hurricane Sandy, some academics are warning that floods may become the norm unless the federal government makes major changes.
The National Research Council has published a report calling on the Army Corps of Engineers to change the way it manages 14,000 miles of levees, 700 dams and many more water structures. It calls on Congress and the White House to act too.
"We have built over the past 100 years or more a very large water resources infrastructure," said David Dzombak, an engineering professor at Carnegie Mellon who chaired the National Research Council committee that wrote the report. "We have not provided the funds to maintain it adequately."
He told The Federal Drive with Tom Temin and Emily Kopp Wednesday that this is not a problem that appeared overnight.
Prof. David Dzombak, National Research Council committee chairman
"That's not just within the past year, the past four years or the past decade, but it's a multi-decade trend here where we have been not providing enough funds to maintain the large infrastructure that we have accumulated over time."
The committee looked broadly at the water infrastructure the Army Corps of Engineering is responsible for, including flood mitigation and inland navigation infrastructure as well as ports, harbors and hydropower generation.
The surge of water and wind Sandy created was a severe test of the infrastructure along the East Coast.
"In this case, there was some Corps infrastructure involved, but a lot of it was state, local and even private infrastructure," Dzombak said. "I think a lesson to take away here is that there's a limited amount that hard infrastructure can do to protect the coastlines against that kind of loading."
The committee's report focused on the need for more "nonstructural" approaches to flood mitigation. "That means zoning and the development decisions that we make for limitations on that to reduce flood risk," he said. "A lot of the infrastructure that was damaged over the past couple of days has been in very high risk areas. We don't experience storms like Sandy on a yearly or even decadal frequency, but the entire East Coast and the Gulf Coast is subject to hurricane loadings like that and we've developed an awful lot that's in harm's way."
Within the context of its annual allocation for operation, maintenance and rehabilitation, the Corps does a pretty good job of allocating available funds and prioritizing among those funds, Dzombak said.
"But, the need for stepping back and looking at the entire infrastructure is at a higher level and there are policy decisions to be made there about what is high priority, how much we want to invest and how much infrastructure we want to maintain," he said. "Those are all policy decisions that fall in the domain of Congress and the Executive Branch."

According to the United States Treasury, during the present week — Monday specifically — the U.S. government will have reached its debt limit of just under $14.3 trillion. As has likely been noticed by everyone, Republicans and Democrats are using this impending crisis to push their respective fiscal agendas. The Democrats indicate (though not unanimously) that given the fragile state of the economy, this is not the time to cut spending. Republicans generally feel that significant spending cuts must be agreed upon (in principle) before the debt limit can be increased.
Adding fuel to the fiscal fire were reports released last week on the financial soundness of two major social insurance programs: Medicare and Social Security. When the news of the "trust funds" associated with Social Security and Medicare is combined with debt ceiling limitations, it should given optimists reason to pause and financial pessimists reason to feel smugly insecure.
According to last week's reports, Social Security — which combines the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) and Disability Insurance (DI) funds — recorded an operational (excluding interest income) deficit of approximately $48.9 billion in 2010, which was aided by a small $2.4 billion transfer from the federal government's general fund.
During the present year, the shortfall will continue, with a smaller projected operational deficit of $45.6 billion. However, the narrower deficit figure is based upon a huge general fund transfer to Social Security of over $105 billion. Thereafter, operational deficits will be recorded indefinitely into the future, with the Social Security Trust Fund (composed of a special class of U.S. Treasury securities) exhausted by 2036. It should be noted that the 2011 operational deficit is particularly large due to the temporary (one year) drop in the Social Security tax rate from 6.2 percent to 4.2 percent for wage earners.
In the case of Medicare, the most significant trust fund issue is Medicare Part A, which provides inpatient and related care for those requiring hospitalization. Such expenses are paid for through the 1.45 percent point tax on payrolls, with both employers and employees paying that same percentage. In 2008 the Hospital Insurance Trust Fund recorded its first operational deficit. According to estimates released last week, the HI Trust Fund (composed of a special class of Treasury securities) will be exhausted by 2024, a full five years earlier than estimates released just one year ago.
For both Social Security and Medicare Part A, once the trust funds are officially exhausted the systems will be able to pay only a portion of anticipated expenditures, with a new funding source (such as the General Fund or some new tax) required to make presently unfunded expenditures possible. As time progresses, these unfunded obligations as the law presently exists can amount to hundreds of billions of dollars per year depending upon the economic assumptions used in outlying years.
And just to more fully understand the urgency of the issues involved, consider the debt ceiling issue currently under debate. As matters now stand the Treasury estimates that Congress and the president have until early August before short term cash-management efforts make the U.S. government at risk of defaulting on its financial obligations to somebody, including holders of Treasury securities and/or citizens due to receive some sort of government payment.
One such payment would be those associated with Social Security checks sent monthly to qualified recipients. While such a decision may be unlikely, the U.S. government might be forced to reduce such payments even though retirees are entitled to such payments. One might wonder why the securities in the "trust fund" could not be sold to produce an income stream to allow the government to honor its covenant with seniors.
Sadly, as mentioned earlier with both Social Security and Medicare, the trust funds are stuffed with "special issue" U.S. Treasury securities. This is a fancy way of saying they are non-marketable financial instruments that can only be sold to the original issuer, which is to say, the U.S. government. And since the debt limit does not allow new securities to be sold, recovery of those funds is not possible, forcing the government to potentially default on its obligation to Social Security recipients.
To say the least, such a reality should finally put to rest the notion that Medicare and Social Security are on sound footing for years to come (2024 and 2036, respectively). That is only true with unlimited borrowing capabilities, and even the U.S. government can only push its borrowing capacity so far before bumping up against economic and financial market realities.

My 920 also froze up the other day while it was connected to the Bluetooth in my car. I broke the Bluetooth connection using the car's interface and my phone resumed normal activity.

I received my phone from AT&T via Fedex last Saturday(11/10/2012) and experienced my first freeze after paring it with a Plantronics M25 Bluetooth head set. The phone froze in the midst of a conversation and then shut off requiring a soft reset. It also shut itself off overnight and required another soft reset to get it back. I have turned off the bluetooth headset and turned off bluetooth on th phone to see if this makes a difference as this was the only change I have made to the phone.
I'll check back in tomorrow.
18-11-2012 19:36
I got my 920 on launch day from ATT. Within 10 minutes of leaving the store the phone locked up completely. Had to do a hard reset. The whole night and part of the next day i had nothing but problems with freezes and locking up, apps not loading, and other problems. Brought it back to ATT and exchanged. The second phone also started freezing up and the start button wouldn't work half the time. Took the second phone back as well and exchanged for my third, which luckily i haven't had a single issue with yet. I have had it for 2 days now and i am not having any problems what so ever. Finally. Still waiting for ATT to get shipment of charging plates that i am supposed to get for free with my renewel of my contract.
18-11-2012 20:30
I have my lumia 920 from AT&T for the past 1 week. As of now I dont see any freezing issues, but I do see a very rapid battery drain issues. In morning after a full charge I see the battery at 100%. By afternoon the battery level falls down to 40 - 50 % without any major activity. Both NFC and location services are disabled. Please let us know when can we expect a fix on this?
18-11-2012 20:32
After 4 hard locks with nothing running and hte phone just sitting there, I took it back to AT&T and got a replacement. If it continues I'm saying goodbye to this phone.

had my lumia 920 form EE uk delivered 16th november 2012, i have had constant problems with screen freeze /software lock up, i have hard reset the phone too many times to mention, it no matter what you do make a call recive a call download apps it frezes,i have paired it with my car via bluetooth ford cmax 2012 it locks up or restarts, whilts downloading apps it freezes, whilts swiping from the main start screen to apps it freezes.
it is also worth noting that the time and and day keeps changing requiring to go into setting and re calibrate the time both with auto time set and manual time set. it droped a call or should i say froze to my network provider mid call noting that the time change ws not going up depite the call showing as active, thankfully this was noted wit EE and they recorded it and called me back on a back up number on another handset.
now dont get me wrong i have used windows phones from way ago and my other phone is a windows phone 7.5 i have had no problems with this at all!.
the saving grace was my call to EE's tech support who have arranged for my phone to be replaced, i must add that the network does not seem to be the problem as i have 4g signal strength at max while the phone is working, i am hoping this is a problem that can be fixed for other users either by a software patch or replacment phone, however i anticipate the arival of the replacment phone as i hope this will not give me any problems.

I have my Nokia Lumia 920 for a week and I was getting a few freezes but since yesterday I am getting black screen when I open apps and connect Bluetooth. Soft reset required to get phone back. No impressed with battery life.
19-11-2012 11:55
Got my 920 last Thursday on T-Mobile in the UK. Had loads of issues with the screen locking up or putting random characters/touches in on its own.
I returned it two days later and got a new one. This one seems a lot better although it has to go back as well when they get more stock, there's marks under the screen.
19-11-2012 12:00
Have a Att 920. turned off my phone and did a soft restart this morning and now the phone is stuck on the nokia splash screen.
How do I get the phone to boot?

Try a reboot by pressing and holding the vol down + Power buttons until the phone vibrates. Could take a while.

Have exactly same problems with both my original Lumia 920 and a replacement phone. Both phones freezes when connected the Bluetooth if the music player is not already running in the background on the phone. Can reproduce it easily. However, if the WP 8 music player is running, it rarely freezes.
I also have issues with the phone (both my original and my replacement phone) crashing when using Bluetooth audio/music streaming, answering a phone call and then going back to Bluetooth music streaming after the phone call is complete.
19-11-2012 20:19
ok today i managed to have the time to take a good look into the problem of the phone freezing and reseting, firstly i decided to do a hard reboot using the combination of presses recomended by various forums ,it would not work! just soft reset, i decided to go into settings and do a factory reset.
the phone at this point was only set up to me network provider and my wifi NO apps were installed other than that that came preinstalled idid not update nokia drive as this is still in beta stage.
firstly setting the time correctly (manually) to gmt, i synced my email via outlook and it gave me no problems revciving and sending mail.
my callander was updated no problems. left it alone for a few hours did not watch over it but noticed the time had changed so i am suspecting it did reboot.
i recived a missed call during this prosses?
started playing with the phone swiping to apps bang it froze!
soft reset later turned off nfc was using the phone again swiping to apps it froze again. it is worth saying that the only conectivity at these points were the network provider and wifi no bluetooth running and no apps running in the background strong signal 4g network.
i had also delibratley left the setup to face book off or i had not signed in for it to use the people hub!
so a factory reset phone still gave me screen lockup and reboot problems the phone is going back in its box and i await a replacment cannot do with the head ache created by my continued attempts to make it stable and usable!
19-11-2012 20:21 - edited 19-11-2012 20:35
Just a little update. I reset my phone to factory setting one week ago because it was freezing everyday. After that I had no problem with the phone the whole week, no freezes and everything fine. Yesterday I installed an App again I had installed before I reset my Nokia. Well, this morning I had to reset my Nokia again. So for me it seems that this is really a problem on the application side and not on the hardware side. Maybe old Windows Phone 7 Apps which "should" run under windows phone 8 but did not get enough testing. I mean it seems wierd to me that the phone had no problem for the whole week because I installed almost no Apps to test its behaviour. I install an old App again and bang it freezes again. And I would not focus on Apps running in the background because Apps could also not shut down as cleanly as they should and so on.
And on a side note, thats the bad thing about mobile operating systems. You do not have any Log Files to investigate why your phone is crashing. At least you could have a little chance to get some information why your phone crashed. I really hope for an update for the windows phone 8.

Going vegetarian is a great way to help animals on factory farms. But by also inspiring others to change their diets, you can spare thousands of animals per year from a life of misery. Here are some key tips on how to be a more effective advocate.
People are much more likely to listen to us if they like us. By being positive and friendly — even when someone is giving us a hard time — we can stay true to our compassionate values and also be effective advocates. Rather than respond with defensiveness, we can disarm even the most committed carnivore with kindness and a sense of humor.
Vegan eating has been stereotyped in ways that may deter people from really considering it. By presenting it in an appealing way, we can make people more interested in trying it out. Rather than complaining about the lack of vegan options at one restaurant, praise the tons of great vegan options somewhere else. People are drawn to things that are popular and that others are doing. Showing the growing popularity of veg eating, and mentioning celebrities who have ditched meat, can inspire others to follow suit.
Nobody likes to be judged or told what to do, and no one wants to think of themselves as a bad person. Research makes clear that guilt-tripping people about their choices makes them even less likely to change. So regardless of how you actually feel, don't act judgmentally toward others or tell them that they are killing animals. Is it true? Maybe. But you'll be more likely to save those animals by not presenting it that way.
Most people oppose unnecessary cruelty to animals, including farmed animals. Most people don't want the planet to be polluted. And most people would like to eat more healthily—or at least think they should. Yet, these interests are probably not reflected in their existing food choices. Point out that veg eating is right in line with what they already believe and who they already are: compassionate, conscientious people.
The average meat-eater often sees going vegan as totally unrealistic. Most people spend years transitioning away from meat before going fully vegetarian or vegan. For people who are hesitant to make a major change, encourage them to start with a smaller switch like going meatless on Monday. Congratulate people for moving in the right direction, and praise their incremental steps.
Many people would be open to going vegetarian if they had a better sense of how to do it. Basic "how" questions like what to eat, where to shop, and how to be healthy as a vegetarian can seem like major barriers to change. By showing people how to do it, you'll make the transition much less scary.
The fact that you're actively taking steps to stop animal suffering and make the world a better place is something to be proud of. Learning some basic suggested responses to FAQs, meeting like-minded people through joining a local veg group, and appreciating yourself for living according to your values are fantastic ways to honor yourself and strengthen your voice as an advocate.
People may ask you questions on various topics that you don't know that much about, such as nutrition or philosophy. Don't feel like you need to know the answer to every question. It's OK to respond with "Unfortunately, I don't know the answer to that. But for me, once I learned about how farmed animals suffer on factory farms, I knew that I wouldn't want anyone to treat my dog or cat like this. I decided I no longer wanted to support that cruelty, so I went vegetarian."
Advocacy is kind of like advertising, so get the veg message out as much as you can. Wearing a pro-vegetarian T-shirt, putting a sticker on the back of your laptop or car, and sharing MFA's posts on your social media pages are great ways to get people thinking. You can also order vegetarian literature to give out to friends and family, to leave at businesses, or to pass out on the street.
There are many excellent resources out there for learning more and becoming an even more effective advocate. Here are a few that we recommend:

Black cats have never had it easy. In fact, they have long been considered bad luck and unfairly linked to witchcraft for centuries. With it being Friday the 13th, we think it's the perfect time to put some common assumptions about black cats to the test.
Black Cats Bring Bad Luck
False. In reality the color of a cat's coat has nothing to do with good or bad luck. And just for the record, in many other cultures, a black cat is a prized pet. In places like Japan and the British Isles, they're even thought to bring their pet parents good luck!
Black Cats Are Evil
False. Sure they may jump on the kitchen counter or use your favorite chair as a scratching post. And just maybe they even try to nibble your toes while you sleep. All cats can be playful. But evil? We think not.
Black Cats Are Often Unwanted
True. Ask any shelter or rescue worker and they will tell you—black cats are the hardest to get adopted. In fact, they are only half as likely to find homes as other cats. So, what's the problem? An unfairly earned reputation? Yep.
Black Cats Make Awesome Pets!
True. Black cats may get a bad rap, but really they're just as lovable as the next furry feline. So help us turn their luck around.Share this article with your friends, and consider adopting one of the cuties currently available at the ASPCA Adoption Center!
My black cat Ace is the sweetest, most laid back cat I've ever known. He's friendly to everyone that comes through our door. Bad luck? Bah! Ace is awesome!
I have a very sweet, intelligent and loving black cat who brought me great luck. About 2 weeks after getting him I met my future husband and we have been a happy family ever since! Black cats are beautiful and mine has been my best little buddy. I also saved a beautiful black cat from a feral life and she was the sweetest thing ever. Adopot all black cats!!
I've had black cats all my life, and I willnever get any other type of cat. They truly are the best, I've never met sweeter, funnier, or more loving cats in my life! You can't go wrong with them, all they can do is bring you love. Adopt black cats!! They deserve to be loved!!
A sweet and beautiful black cat named Chelsea kept me company for 19 years. She will always have a special place in my heart.
People should not be judged by the color of their skin and cats should not be judged by the color of their coats.
I am the proud momma of TWO black cats. If we had our own home we would probably have another. I love...LOVE....LOVE black cats and will adopt them every time!
We actually prefer black cats; we have 3. My husband found our two older brothers while demolishing a house & we adopted our little girl fro the local HS. all 3 have been nothing but a joy!
We don't believe in superstitions to begin with. I was born on Friday the 13th & hubby & I chose to be married on Friday the 13th as well!
my black cat is soooo sweet he is sleek smooth and quite the looker!! ;) he is really rare and my mom found him on the side of the road and we took him into our home! We got him 2 years ago and he still is on my lap right now! He is like most outdoor cats and he is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My black cat was the first I've ever owned and he is my baby.
I had my black cat Lucky for over 8 years...and he was THE BEST cat I've ever had. Super affectionate, loving...even played with the dogs :) I named him Lucky...because I was lucky to find such an amazing kitty. Unfortunatley he passed away a couple years ago :( But...if I ever get another cat, it will be a black kitty!
i know for a fact that black dogs and black cats are the last to be adopted, and that is just really unfortunate. i must have had at least 5 black cats, and i now also have a little black Pomeranian boy. all were rescues. coat color has nothing to do with it, people. it's all about your pet's personality. mine were all sweet-natured babies.

Washington (CNN) - A ban on the sale of some Apple products - including iPhones and iPads - will not go into effect after President Barack Obama's administration stepped in Saturday, a day before the prohibition was to go into effect.
Ambassador Michael Froman, the U.S. trade representative, overturned a June decision of the U.S. International Trade Commission – which, according to its website, is an "independent, quasijudicial federal agency" that investigates trade issues - that certain Apple products designed for the AT&T network could not be imported to or sold in the United States.
The Obama administration's 60-day window to address, and possibly reverse, that decision was to end Sunday.
The trade representative's rare move stems from a patent dispute between the tech giants Apple and Samsung over patents on wireless communications.
An ITC judge ruled against Samsung on three patents, but the commission sided with Samsung on the fourth - leading to the ban announced in June.
It would have affected models of the iPhone 4, 3GS and 3, as well as iPads and iPad 2s, that were compatible with AT&T's network.
In a letter Saturday outlining the decision, Froman expressed "substantial concerns" about "patent hold-up," in which companies use a patent to gain "undue leverage" over use of technologies. He also noted that communications technology standards, including those covered by patents, "have come to play an increasingly important role in the U.S. economy."
Froman noted that his decision does not stop the dispute between Apple and Samsung from continuing to play out in court. Last summer, Apple won a $1 billion lawsuit against Samsung over patent issues.
A Samsung spokesman said Saturday it was "disappointed" in Froman's decision.
"The ITC's decision correctly recognized that Samsung has been negotiating in good faith and that Apple remains unwilling to take a license," David Steel said in a statement.
Apple and the ITC did not immediately answer calls from CNN on Saturday for reaction to the U.S. Trade Representative's decision.

Tyler Smith has only been at Southwest for about two months, but the senior quarterback already knows about the Stallions' tradition and that a bulldozer of a running game has made the program a winner.
"They want to win," Smith said before a recent practice. "And coming here, they said, 'We are a smash-mouth team,' and I was like, 'All right, I'm not used to that, but I'm able to learn anything.' We are still going to be that smash-mouth team, but we are going to throw a little bit, too."
The Stallions can thank Smith for the latter.
At 6-foot-1, 200 pounds, the 17-year-old Smith gives Southwest a strong physical presence under center, but he also provides the Stallions a strong right arm that allows them to be a passing threat this season.
"I think we are going to throw the ball a little bit more than we have in the past," coach Phil Padgett said. "We are not going to be a straight-up T-formation team. He was the missing piece to what we wanted to do this year. He's stepped in and done well."
Padgett and his staff decided that once Smith became a Stallion during the summer after he transferred in from his home state of
During the spring, Smith attended
Last football season, he quarterbacked
"Since my size, I've always played defensive end or line or something like that, but I've always been able to throw because I play baseball," said Smith, a pitcher who's played baseball and football since his Pee Wee years. "My coach was like, 'Dang you can throw the ball.' He put me in there because we didn't have anybody at quarterback."
Since then, Smith has been working on his fundamentals.
"Since my junior year I've worked on nothing but footwork and mechanics," he said. "My footwork is a whole lot better."
Padgett certainly sees that.
"He can move around," he said. "He's not frozen, he's not a statute and he doesn't have concrete blocks in his shoes.
Padgett said he and his staff watched game film of Smith prior to the quarterback's arrival at Southwest, which opens the season Aug. 23 at home against
Once the coaches met Smith for the first time and then saw him drop back and sling the ball, they quickly knew he was the right fit as their quarterback.
"Right away I saw that he could throw it," Padgett said. "He's got good size, he's got a strong arm and he's very intelligent and very coachable."
No doubt Padgett and the Stallions like Smith. The quarterback also likes his new team and teammates. Smith said the Stallions "took me in with open arms" when he arrived to The Corral.
"They treated me like one of the guys. They are great guys," Smith said. "Coming in, you're the new guy, and I'm kind of used to that being a military kid, but when I came in I was nervous how they would treat me. But they treated me like I've been here my whole life."
And now that he's a Stallion, Smith wants to help Southwest continue to be a state power. The Stallions are hoping to make a run in the 2-A playoffs this season after they won the state 1-AA title last year.
"The team is great and we are going to do great this year," Smith said. "This is some of the best skilled players I've seen in my years of playing. I feel really good as the quarterback. I got big shoes to fill and there's always the pressure, but the pressure makes it fun.
"I want us to win as a team. If the team wins, that's all that matters to me."

I never thought living in a drafty castle would be much fun until Simon of Ravenswood in Master of Desire by Kinley MacGregor came along.
Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that these are my men -- when do they get their stories?

The card has a beautiful design all the way around. The software to change the color scheme and type up the card was very user friendly. I do, however, question their review process. After I ordered my card I noticed there was an error in the line spacing. When the cards arrived I noticed that no email had been sent about the error. So if there are errors in spelling etc ob your cards make sure you catch them before you order. Itherwise I am very happy with the way they turned out.

Desk Organization Tips from See Jane Work (~Holly Bohn-Weiss, See Jane Work)
Get and Stay Organized (in style of course)
Getting and staying organized is a challenge in today's fast-paced work environments. Just like new running shoes can provide the motivation to get fit, fun, stylish office supplies can motivate you to get organized. A stylish pencil cup or file sorter can add a touch of personal style and organize your desktop without breaking the bank.
Not all desks are created equal
Unfortunately corner offices are few and far between. In most workspaces, storage space is hard to find. Keep only the supplies you use daily in your immediate work area. A rotating desktop organizer is designed to hold pens, pencils, highlighters, clips and anything else you use on a regular basis. Best of all when you keep those items on your desktop you're less likely to max out your storage space with unnecessary supplies.
Little Desk, Big Mess
It's amazing how easily a desktop can go from clean to cluttered. Lost files are the least of your problems; you can't even find a pen or paperclip! Trays are a great way to corral desktop clutter. Use a tray to keep your pencil cup, clip holder, stapler and tape dispenser in one dedicated area on your desk. Our faux leather desk trays work great for holding paper and supplies.
Don't neglect your drawers
Your office looks great, that is until you open a drawer. Drawer organizers are an inexpensive way to maximize storage space. Use a label maker to mark the sides or bottom of each compartment so you know what goes where and you'll find it's easier to stay organized no matter how hectic your day.

Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference, or WWDC, is an annual conference that showcases the company's new software and technologies for developers.
The conference, which was first held in 1990 and which traditionally takes place in California, includes hands-on labs with Apple engineers and in-depth sessions covering a wide variety of tech-related topics for attendees. The 2008-2014 conferences were sold out at 5,000 attendees, all of whom have to sign a non-disclosure agreement covering the sessions and other material handed out at WWDC.
Beginning in 2002, WWDC became a site for hardware announcements. In 2003, WWDC merged with QuickTime Live, another Apple trade show. The number of QuickTime sessions was increased, the Apple Design Awards were joined by "Apple Design Awards for QuickTime Content," and more enterprise-oriented content was added.
In June 2014, WWDC celebrated the 25th anniversary of WWDC. The event included the unveiling of new software items like the iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite. The new Swift programming language and a surplus of developer kits and tools for iOS 8 were also announced at WWDC 2014.

RALEIGH — Southwest is used to being a top dog in football, no matter the opponent.
Simply put, Southwest is accustomed to contending for state championships with the proof being the Stallions' three state titles and two other appearances in the finals in 25 years under coach Phil Padgett.
However, Southwest has more than met its match — at least in terms of state crowns — in defending champion Swain County, the Stallions' opponent in the NCHSAA 1-AA championship game Saturday at 3 p.m. at Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh.
Like Southwest, the Maroon Devils are used to winning a lot of games and state titles. Swain County has eight state crowns and two other trips to the finals with its trip last year resulting in a 20-14 win over Ayden-Grifton, which eliminated Southwest a week earlier 35-14.
So when the Stallions (13-1) and Maroon Devils (15-0) meet in the state final, it will be a game featuring one state power vs. another state power.
Southwest won state 2-A titles in 2000, 2003 and 2004 while Swain County won titles in 1979, 1985, 1988-1990, 2001, 2004 and last year. Former University of Tennessee and NFL quarterback Heath Shuler led the Maroon Devils to their three consecutive titles.
"Talk about tradition," Padgett said Monday during the NCHSAA football news conferences at Carter-Finley Stadium on N.C. State University's campus. "I have the utmost respect for Swain County, and I'm excited about the game, although I'm not as excited about how good they are."
First-year Swain County coach Neil Blankenship, who served as the Maroon Devils' defensive coordinator the past eight years and has been at the school for 20 years overall, is well aware of Southwest's history.
"They've won three and made it to five and that's pretty good. Being there that many times as a coach, that's impressive," Blankenship said. "I think both schools are traditionally known for great football, and I think over the years both schools go in and their goal is a state championship."
But something has to give when two of the state's traditionally strongest teams meet for the championship. Both squads want to add to their collection of titles and further strengthen their program's strong traditions, which was the plan for both entering the season.
The Stallions have always had high expectations with this year being no different.
Southwest hadn't been back to the final since losing the 2009 title game to Albemarle, falling to Pender in the East Regional final in 2010 and losing at Ayden-Grifton last year in the regional semifinals.
But Padgett knew this season could be special for the Stallions.
"We knew this was going to be a good group if everything came together, and it has," he said. "We knew there was an outside chance of making it, but, like coach (Blankenship) said, you have to be good and you have to be lucky. This year, it's not a surprise we are here, but at the same breath, we could have easily been knocked out in the second or third round."
Southwest's only setback this season was a 21-14 loss at much-improved Jacksonville (8-5), which advanced to the second round of the 3-A playoffs. Other than that loss, the Coastal Plains Conference champions have faced little resistance as their closest victory was a 24-20 come-from-behind win over East Columbus.
The games against Jacksonville and East Columbus were Southwest's only games decided by seven points or less.
"After we beat Richlands (28-7), we really felt we were playing the best football we could play and I felt great about it," Padgett said. "Then we went in about a three-week lull and we couldn't beat the Bad News Bears as they say.
"And then we kind of picked it back up a little bit and honestly, as we went into the end of the season, we thought we were playing good football, but the competition wasn't real good and so it was hard to tell sometimes. We got into the playoffs and we felt we were playing pretty good teams and as each week progressed, I thought this team was getting a little bit better."
The Stallions' playoff scores show that.
Southwest won its four playoff games by an average of 27.5 points, including last week's 35-13 win at James Kenan.
But Swain Co. is also no stranger to big wins. The Smoky Mountain Conference champions have only played in three games decided by 14 points or less, including last week's 28-21 victory over Monroe.
"We played some pretty good teams and played some teams that may not have been on (our) level," said Blankenship, adding a 28-21 season-opening win over 3-A East Henderson "was big" for his team. "Then we played Franklin, a 3-A school who is pretty good, and then we got into the conference schedule and played Murphy at the end of the year."
The Maroon Devils closed the regular season with a 21-7 win at Murphy (13-2), which plays Plymouth (14-1) in the state 1-A final Saturday, giving the Smoky Mountain two state finalists. But while the win over Murphy was big, it wasn't the best game the Maroon Devils played, their coach said.
"We weren't happy with some of the things we saw against Murphy, but Murphy made us do those things," Blankenship said. "Even though we won that game, if we were going to be any better, we had things we had to take care of. So the next week in the first round of the playoffs, we really started to hit on the things we needed to."
And then the path was open for a Southwest-Swain County final. Padgett, though, knows bringing home a state title back to The Corral won't be easy.
"We want to go in there and give them our best shot," he said. "You can't get all excited about just coming here. You're coming in to win a football game. A lot of times kids get lost in that, but luckily the years I've been here, I'm getting to be 100 years old, I've had a little bit of experience with that and hopefully we can keep them in the right direction."

Men's Basketball Falls Just Short at Tampa
December 22, 2013
TAMPA, FL – The Pfeiffer men's basketball team (3-8) came just shy of knocking off Tampa (7-3) but missed a jumper in the final seconds as the Spartans came away with a 75-74 victory. The game was close the entire way as neither team had a lead larger than eight points.
Mike Smith connected on a clutch three pointer with the Falcons trailing by four with 50 seconds left to play to make it a one point game. Pfeiffer came away with a big stop on the defensive end and David McNair controlled the rebound. Head Coach Jeremy Currier called a timeout with four seconds left to set up a last second play for the win. On the ensuing play, Smith got a jump shot off, but was unable to convert.
Smith scored 24 points in the game, his tenth straight game scoring over 20. He connected on 2-of-3 attempts from long range and dished out six assists. AJ Clark added 18 points and five assists while McNair had his fourth consecutive game in double-digit rebounds, grabbing a season-high 15 boards.
Pfeiffer had a season-low seven turnovers in the contest and held a 43-35 advantage in rebounds.
The host Spartans were led by 16 points and 10 rebounds by Eric Moraes. Ryan Kiss added 13 points and Vincent Cornu had 12 points and seven rebounds.
Pfeiffer also connected on a season-best 47.4 percent (9-for-19) from long range and had a 16-9 advantage in second chance points. Their game featured 10 lead changes and seven ties.
Smith scored 15 points and went 6-for-8 from the free throw line in the second half and Clark had 10 second half points. The Falcons shot 48 percent from the field in the final 20 minutes.
The three point defense was also solid for Pfeiffer as they held Tampa to only 26.1 percent from long distance.
The Falcons are off until a Jan. 4 matchup with King at Merner Gym at 7:30. The Tornado were voted by the coaches as the favorite to win Conference Carolinas.

All semblance of competitiveness VANISHES when Davis comes out.
Ohh missed that
Robin hits blake hard on Wrist. Blake acts like he has a fractured skull... *****
Dude was whacked on the arm and Griffin touches his face. Dude is a total *****.
It's done! We are somehow going to package a deal around Lopez and a future 1st for Bledsoe. Just watch!
Has anyone seen Squeeky Johnson lately?
Where is J smoove with the bulldozer on griffin
GSW has the best bench in the NBA and its not even close...
Here it what it is. Monty is not changing the offense because he must truly believe the players he needs will come soon. The injured guy being one of them.
Otherwise, this stagnant, iso offense does NOT match it's talent. Vasquez should be giving the ball up damn near as soon as he crosses half court. INstead the ball stays stuck in his hands most of the shot clock.
wtf is anderson doing tonight
Anderson sure is chucking up some bricks tonite.
I think Joel Meyers and David Wesley don't like each other that much
Dell Demps PLEASE get us some scorers!
Finally Roberts is coming in. Never thought I'd be happy to see him.
cp3 making vasquez look horrible
Sick of GV holding the pounding the rock until the clock is about to expire... trade this dude after the game for a pack of sour Skittles.
davis needs to take the ball to the hoop. he isnt being aggressive when given the ball up top. he looks to pass it right away every time. granted he should be getting the ball down lower than where he is. he should still be attacking the basket which he is not

Staff &Wire reports
Robin Roberts says her road to recovery will bring her back to the 'Good Morning America' anchor desk in a matter of 'weeks, not months.'
Appearing from her home on 'Good Morning America' on Monday, Roberts wore a broad smile as she announced that her most recent bone marrow test showed no sign of the life-threatening ailment that has kept her off the air for months.
She said this means she can begin the process of returning to the anchor chair.
She calls it 'coming home' and says she hopes to be back on the air 'in weeks, not months.'
After disclosing she had been diagnosed with MDS, a rare blood disorder, Roberts underwent a bone marrow transplant in September, with her sister, Channel 4 anchor Sally-Ann Roberts, as the donor.
'This day would not be possible without my sister,' she said on the Eyewitness Morning News Monday morning.
'My blood count continues to improve. My beloved sister, Sally-Ann, my donor...her cells continue to make themselves at home in my body,' Robin said on GMA.
'The big news is that my last bone marrow aspiration by the way, ouch, I've lost count how many I've had but the last bone marrow test showed no abnormalities.... Praise God!'
Robin said the plan is that it's like an 'athlete coming off injured reserve.' She'll ease into the 'process of re-entry,' starting with getting up early.
'I got up at 4 o'clock this morning. I have to get back on GMA time,' she joked, saying it was one thing she had not missed during her absence.
She said she'll do what she called some 'dry runs,' acclimating herself to the studio. Her doctors want to see how her body reacts to the environment, especially in light of the current flu outbreak.
'What happens now is after I go through this dry run, my doctors will sit down with me again and evaluate where I am. We're talking now weeks, not months. I should be back sometime in February.'

Another function.php question

Posted 31 August 2012 - 10:56 AM
Hey Guys, function.php has been kicking my butt recently. Over the last few days I have gotten very good at breaking my site with functions.php, then going back and restoring the functions.php file to its original state. I have read a bunch on how to implement new code into functions php and have tried it in several places. Here is the latest (failed) attempt. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. Thanks a bunch
Posted 31 August 2012 - 11:07 AM
Hi, Can you tell me what you want to add to your child themes function.php file please.
Posted 31 August 2012 - 12:00 PM
Hey Danny, Thanks for the quick response! I am looking to add this :I (hopefully) will give me a short description next to each of my products.
Posted 31 August 2012 - 12:53 PM
The best course of action would be to contact JigoShop support regarding this.
Posted 31 August 2012 - 01:17 PM
Thanks Danny, I'll be sure to do that and report back if I find anything. If anyone else knows what the issue is with my code () Your joining the conversation would be much appreciated
Posted 31 August 2012 - 01:41 PM
PLEASE dont edit the main framework functions file, either use a chile theme or the customization plugin.
Posted 31 August 2012 - 01:48 PM
Looking at the paste, you're missing the closing } in your function. Not sure other than that. PS. Simon means "child theme"
Posted 01 September 2012 - 08:16 AM
Man, one little squiggly line is the different between taking my site offline and getting the code to work. @simple_mama , you are a genius. Thank you so much. @pross , I am editing the functions file found in wp-content/themew/paglines-template-theme. Is this bad?
Posted 02 September 2012 - 09:55 AM
Editing the Child theme like you mentioned above is the correct way to add custom code such as hooks to your site.
Posted 03 September 2012 - 04:36 AM
Thanks for the confirmation Danny!

As one of Germany's top bicycle brands, Focus has built a strong reputation for designing high performance bicycles. Whether it is Road, Cyclocross, Cross Country, or All Mountain, Focus is a leader in innovation and design, offering outstanding bicycles with an incredible price-to-performance ratio.
The Black Forest is a hardtail XC 29er line with a focus on performance. This lightweight bike finds its foundation on sturdy alloy frame construction, yielding high performance results. Meticulously designed and constructed, the Black Forest doesn't skip a beat on the trail and keeps you cranking mile after mile.
Complementing the Black Forest frame is a trail ready group from SRAM and Rock Shox that is durable and performance driven. Together they produce a compelling ride experience that complements the precision of the Black Forest frame. Sram X0 10 speed twist shifters set the pace with spot on and reliable shifting while the Sram X9 front and X0 rear derailleurs keep the chain in check, smoothly guiding it to your desired gearing. The lightweight and stiff Sram S1000 cranks transfer power with every pedal stroke and Magura MT2 brakes give the the power to stop on a dime. A Rock Shox Reba RL fork with remote lockout provides 100mm of travel to tame the bumps and those more challenging sections of the trail. A Focus branded Concept cockpit, rounds out the Black Forest 1.0 build, making for a truly dialed and comfortable ride.

Comments about Focus Black Forest 1.0 29" Bike 2013:
The short of it: The component package convinced me it was a good deal. It was not.
The long of it: I was advised to look elsewhere by a very knowledgeable LBS owner. His feeling that the geometry is outdated. He was right.
I purchased the bike for my 5'3" GF, who is a competitive triathlete, and figured the high end SRAM comps and Reba fork would make the purchase worth the while. She is new to mtn biking and I didn't expect outdated geometry would keep her from getting started. I was wrong.
As stand over is not specified in the geometry specs, I am confident, although not certain, that I discussed with Jenson USA sales the issue of stand over height relative to the riders height & inseam prior to making the purchase. Assured the small size frame would fit her small size body, I made the purchase.
We rode together 2 times before it became apparent that the Focus geometry was not going to work for her. It simply did not fit. The top tube was so high on the small size frame as to make riding extremely difficult, if not dangerous, especially for someone new to the sport.
Accepting that I had more than a little responsibility in the purchase decision, I consulted with Jenson hoping we could come to some mutually agreeable solution and quickly get her on a bike that fit.
Upon hearing the story and that the bike had only been ridden 2 times, the Jenson sales person I spoke with seemed confident we could return the bike even though we were about 37 days past the 60 day return period. I told Jenson the frame had some cosmetic damage and offered to send pictures.
Upon receipt of the pictures the story changed. They would not take the bike back.
Wanting & needing to get the situation resolved, I suggested they sell me a Niner EMD XS frame. I would swap out all the comps from the Focus to the Niner and need only a seat tube and headset. The Niner geometry is right, I ride a Jet 9, and I consulted directly with Niner about the swap out, it seemed like the best solution to the problem and it was.
The deal is done. I purchased the EMD frame, stripped the Focus, built the Niner and we rode this past weekend while attending the UCI WC in Windham, NY.
Bottom Line: My complaint is that Jenson, while speaking of accommodation, was acting only marginally so. The accommodation that started as a return with refund or credit ended as a meager 10% discount on the EMD frame and a free headset top. I feel they should have done better, and now seeing the Focus Black Forest discounted an additional $200 beyond the price I paid, I've got of bit of a stinging feeling in my back side.

Comments about Focus Black Forest 1.0 29" Bike 2013:
I just started riding and was borrowing a buddy's bike that was too small for me. The guys I ride with ride $10k bikes which I could not do and had no interest in as I am just starting out. After researching extensively and trying to find a reasonably priced bike with components I could use to try and chase these guys down I decided on this focus. Great decision!! There is nothing else out there remotely close to this price range with these components. I love the XO speed shifters and after about a dozen rides of me beating on the thing so far it's holding up great. I strongly recommend this bike. My only gripe with it is that compared to the Superfly I was close to getting the geometry on this frame seems a little more dated. Also, I plan on swapping out the horrible seat that it came with but that seems pretty standard on most bikes under the $3k range. Great deal!!

Just like plumbers, electricians, gardener or house help, a locksmith in Sydney is one person that should be a trusted ally and should be there when you need them, preferably they should have an agency or company that offers 24 hour locksmith services. Looking for these services is not very easy as there many companies in play. Compromised security not only affects property, but could actually put other loved ones in danger.
Getting references from close friends and colleagues who have had experiences with locksmith services will come in when doing research on what company to engage but remember some service may have worked best for your friend but may not suit your security requirements. Having the correct locksmith service ensures that your details are not spread across so many people who might want to burglarize your home.
Checking of credentials is made easier based on the current access to information on companies, some companies offer services that are bonded and insured. These protests against faulty work and property damage, and if you decide to engage the company make sure the staff, they send over have identification just as a precaution. Avoid giving out major details as to why you prefer certain security features and ensure the company respects such demands.
When upgrading a home have free quotes from companies as there are those that offer auto lock service for residential and businesses, such quotes will give a scope on how much service spectrum is at your disposal and this may include a 24 hour emergency locksmith service. Such free quotes can be obtained from the company offices or linked websites.
Quality services don't necessarily mean expensive, but also cheap is expensive, comparing cost implication that fits in your budget is a must so as to have the best affordable service. Keep contact with the company in case there are new products in the market that might improve your lock security.

Alert: The following services will be unavailable on Saturday, January 5, 2013 from 12 a.m. (midnight) to 6 a.m. CST due to system maintenance.
Bicycle safety
Bicycles are considered "vehicles" on Wisconsin roadways. That means bicyclists must obey the rules of the road like any other vehicle and must be treated as equal users by all other vehicles.
Bicycles are particularly vulnerable among road vehicles. There are several simple things bicyclists can do to greatly reduce their risk of crash, death or injury.
The best way is to avoid common bicyclist errors or to be prepared to avoid common motorist errors committed around bicyclists.
The most effective way to prevent head injuries, is to wear a properly fitting bicycle helmet. A helmet worn correctly, just above the eyebrows, on every ride is the best defense against serious injury in a fall or crash.
Beginning in April, WisDOT will host a series of workshops around the state to provide training for trainers of bicycle safety. More information about the workshops can be found in the following brochure.
What is a bicycle?
A bicycle is defined by Wisconsin law as a "vehicle propelled by the feet acting upon pedals and having wheels any two of which are not less than 14 inches in diameter."
The legal definition of bicycle in Wisconsin does not include very small two-wheeled bicycles, tricycles or motorized bicycles.
A bicycle is a legal vehicle whose operator is required to follow all traffic laws. This means stopping for stop signs and red lights if traveling in the street and riding on the same side of the road as other traffic that is going in the same direction.

Adapted from The Weight Watchers 50th Anniversary Cookbook
Nobody knows who Joe was, but these beloved messy sandwiches certainly pack a flavor punch. Bypass the too-salty packaged flavoring mix—our heady mix of seasonings tastes fresher and better!
1 tablespoon canola oil1 medium onion, finely chopped1 green bell pepper, finely chopped2 garlic cloves, minced1 teaspoon chili powder½ teaspoon dried oregano½ teaspoon dry mustard1 pound ground skinless turkey breast1 cup prepared barbecue sauce4 multigrain hamburger rolls
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Swirl in the oil, then add the onion, pepper, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chili powder, oregano, and mustard; let cool 1 minute.
Add the turkey and cook, stirring to break up the meat, until no longer pink, 3–4 minutes. Stir in the barbecue sauce and cook until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and serve in the hamburger rolls.
Serves 4
Per serving (1 roll with 3⁄4 cup meat): 356 Cal, 10 g Total Fat, 2 g Sat Fat, 67 mg Chol, 813 mg Sod, 33 g Carb, 4 g Fib, 32 g Prot, 86 mg Calc.PointsPlus value: 9.
Good ideaIt's important not to overcook the ground turkey breast in this recipe or it may become dry and chewy. Keep it moving in the pan, and add the sauce as soon as it is cooked through—not browned.
