Old English arm, earm, of Germanic origin; related to Dutch arm and German Arm.
Although they may seem connected, arm meaning 'part of the body' and arm meaning 'a weapon' are different words. The former is Old English, while the latter came into medieval English from French and ultimately Latin. It is also found in armadillo (late 16th century), from the Spanish for 'little armed man'; in armistice (early 18th century) from Latin arma and stitium 'stoppage'; armour (Middle English) and armature (mid 16th century), both from Latin armatura and both originally meaning armour. The long arm of the law is the police force. The phrase was first recorded in Rob Roy by Sir Walter Scott (1817) as 'the arm of the law', but the more usual form was 'the strong arm of the law'. The first example of the 'long' form is in Charles Dickens's The Old Curiosity Shop of 1841. If something costs an arm and a leg it is extremely expensive. The traditional story connects the expression with portrait painting. A pose in which the sitter's arms and legs were all visible might be more difficult to paint, making the portrait more expensive. More likely is that the phrase originates in the idea that a person's arms and legs are very precious to them. It may be an insensitive punning reference to 'lost an arm and a leg', a phrase which was all too common in reports of wartime casualties. There is a similar thought behind the much older expression give your right arm for something, meaning 'to want something very much and be willing to pay a high price for it'.

STANFORD -- Stepfan Taylor won't play the numbers game. Just watch Stanford's superb tailback sidestep any statistic that casts him in the spotlight as if he were eluding would-be tacklers.
As the senior from Mansfield, Texas, closes in on the school's all-time career rushing record all he wants to talk about is improving.
"I wish I could get everything better," Taylor said this week. "I really couldn't just name one thing because I'm trying to improve the whole picture."
The No. 1 statistic on Taylor's mind is victories: nine and counting as eighth-ranked Stanford plays No. 17 UCLA in a Pac-12 showdown Saturday at the Rose Bowl.
The Cardinal (9-2, 7-1 Pac-12) can reach the conference championship next Friday with a victory over the South Division-winning Bruins (9-2, 6-2). In that scenario, Stanford would play host to UCLA with a potential Rose Bowl berth on the line.
Taylor, 21, has no time for reflection in such a big-game atmosphere.
"Everybody in the locker room made a big point to focus on this game," he said of the regular-season finale. "It all comes down to this and you don't want to let it slip away."
The 5-foot-11, 215-pound rusher has taken nothing for granted in his final collegiate season. Taylor recently became the first Cardinal back to gain at least 1,000 yards in three consecutive seasons with a total of 1,222 yards so far this year. He is 177 yards short of Darrin Nelson's career mark of 4,169 yards. Taylor's challenge to break the mark grew this week when Stanford sports information department amended Nelson's career total to incorporate bowl-game statistics that previously were not included in its record books.
The ball carrier, though, had no idea when he surpassed 3,000 career yards early this season.
"We're so caught up in how he can get better," running backs coach Mike Sanford said.
Taylor is dogged in his pursuit to play better. Even after a heavy workload in a game he declines to wear a do-not-touch jersey in practice.
"And he is mad when he is taken out of a practice rep," Sanford added.
Despite the impressive resume Taylor hasn't been elevated to the level of great Cardinal backs such as Toby Gerhart, Tommy Vardell, Brad Muster and Nelson.
But UCLA coach Jim Mora won't be caught off guard by Taylor and Stanford's ground game.
"You'll see plays were all 11 guys are within eight or nine yards of each other," he told the Los Angeles Times. "They just come off with force. He's not afraid to stick his head in there and get the tough yards."
"They keep doing that and doing that, then all of a sudden someone on the defense tries to do something tricky, and there's a seam and he pops it," Mora added of Taylor.
Whereas Gerhart bullied his way through defenders, Taylor makes tacklers miss. He rarely takes a direct hit, forcing defenders to get glancing blows.
Coach David Shaw likes something else about Taylor's game that has gone unnoticed by many.
"He is without a doubt, the best pass protector in our conference -- one of the best ever," Shaw said. "That's hard for a lot of runners to do."
A staff filled with former NFL coaches has tried to preserve its star for a potential pro future by limiting his touches. But Taylor gets stronger the more he carries the ball and shows no signs of fatigue in the second half.
That's by design. As productive as he was the previous two years Taylor spent the offseason improving his balance and strength with the help of yoga exercises.
Taylor has been religious this season about stretching and rehabbing in order to arrive at each game with "fresh" legs.
Of course he is fibbing himself into believing it because he enters the UCLA game as banged up as any tailback this late in the season.
"I try not to feel pain," Taylor said. "If you don't feel it you're not going to play like you're hurt."
It's just one more aspect of football accounting he chooses to ignore.

Shanghai commeth in Italian jewelry
Posted by Shreve & Co. at 2:55:09 AM in Roberto Coin (31)
Italian jeweler Roberto Coin recently launched three exciting new collections to add to his already splendid array of fine jewelry creations. All radiating with dazzling gems in awe-inspiring new designs, these new collections are dynamic and kaleidoscopic in their own distinct way. The Roberto Coin Shanghai Collection is bursting with beautiful rounded stones which provide pieces—like the amber-colored bracelet and earrings—a subtle visual impact. Using a lively mix of amethyst, citrine, smoky quartz, sapphire and topaz, the Shanghai Collection's innovative color blending creates a delicate, yet sudden and profound effect. As with all his collections, Roberto Coin always uses diversity in designs to make each piece noticeably distinct from others. However, whatever piece he creates, there will always be the profound element of femininity, which he says should be inherent in any jewelry.
Find the Shanghai Collection at Shreve & Co. on Post Street in San Francisco, an authorized Roberto Coin dealer. Also visit Shreve & Co in Palo Alto, California and Portland, Oregon.

SAN JOSE -- Vancouver defenseman Kevin Bieksa slammed Sharks forwards Logan Couture and Joe Thornton on Monday, saying they have shown a "lack of integrity" in this first-round playoff series for what he perceives to be their embellishment of injuries to draw penalties.
"Those are two Canadian guys who are supposed to be playing the game with integrity," Bieksa said after the Canucks practiced at HP Pavilion. "Maybe our team has to do more of that."
The Canucks, a team with a reputation as the NHL's worst divers, have taken 21 minor penalties in losing the first three games of the series and need a win Tuesday at HP Pavilion to avoid elimination. Bieksa has six penalty minutes in the series.
"Couture has been snapping his head back. This isn't my opinion. The evidence is in the video," said Bieksa, recalling a specific incident when Henrik Sedin was called for high-sticking Couture. "Hank touches him off the faceoff, he does a full back arch and his glove goes flying off in the corner."
Couture had a one-word reaction to Bieksa's statement -- "Really?" -- before adding: "There's really not much to say. I'm not going to go to the media and do any talking. I'll do my talking on the ice."
Bieksa referred to Thornton as "another so-called Canadian ... He gets slashed, takes his glove off, shakes his hand. The ref takes a couple of seconds to look at that and make a call."
Thornton did offer a response.
"It's just talk," the Sharks captain said. "You can see in both video clips, they were probably both penalties. They're just going to talk like that now. At this point, you really don't even pay attention to things that are said like that. It's all part of the gamesmanship. You just try not to get sucked into a verbal altercation with them."
Does Thornton worry that Bieksa's charges might influence Game 4 officials?
"Refs are professionals," Thornton said. "They don't care what's being said in the media. They just go out there and do their jobs."
Bieksa, who hit Sharks forward Marty Havlat in the groin area with his stick in Game 1, indicated that the acting jobs were effective because "they have a really good power play, and they understand they're going to do some damage on the power play."
The Sharks have just 10 minor penalties in the series and have allowed one power play goal. The Canucks have allowed four power play goals, including three in Sunday's 5-2 loss.
"Alain is a tremendous coach," McLellan said. "Do I think Alain deserves that? By no means. He's an excellent coach and will coach for many years."
Vancouver, which lost to the Los Angeles Kings in the first round last season, has managed just five goals in the first three games.
McLellan said that if the Sharks were on the brink of elimination, his job status would likely be in question.
"It's just the way it goes," McLellan said.
Vigneault has coached the Canucks since the start of the 2006-07 season and has led the team to six Northwest Division titles in seven years, two President's Cup trophies and an appearance in the Stanley Cup final in 2011. He was named the NHL's coach of the year after the 2006-07 season.
Vigneault has been criticized for the team's offensive woes this season, as the Canucks are 19th in the league in goals per game (2.5) and 22nd in power play percentage (15.8). Last season, Vancouver was fifth in goals per game (2.94) and fourth in power play percentage (19.4).

5- point plan for getting that consistency
1) Get rid of Downing - see previous thread for explanation
2) Never ever consider playing Lucas and Allen together. They seem to be too similar for the footy Brendan wants to play
3) Following from above, we have to get a so-called 'hard man' in the defensive midfield positon. I believe we are bullied too often here (a la Stoke game). Diame of West Ham would be good, and if its true he's available for 3.5 mil........
4) Give Sterling a break. He's looking a bit out of his depth at the moment
5) Sturridge must start. If you bring him on with 30 minutes to go he's only ever going to get 30 minutes. If you start him, he might just make it to the end of the game i.e get fitter quicker. I think Brendan knows he ballsed up in the United game.
I would be interested to know of everybody's 'point plan' to get us consistency and also beating the top sides which has been a problem (forget how we've played, its the results that matter)Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

See my thread.. and see how it compares?
Hey Loki, have you been talking to Aldo 'cos he says much the same thing in todays Echo, nuthin about Downing but the rest of its there! Well done!

I've been saying it for ages. Get that midfield general in. They don't need to be a hardman or a defensive midfielder but someone who runs the show. I'll admit a hardman may find that easier though.
For me Sneijder would do nicely I think if his form is anywhere near what it was 2 years ago. Alonso maybe but other than that I can't think of any real standout player of that ilk.
Anyone know where there's a 22 year old version of Souness lurking?
Loki ...u 5 point plan makes sense to me agree with all five points u make...just one to add though. In each point u make in effect u are criticising BR...and I happen to think he fully merits criticism...as each point u make highlites a failing on his part ...he is the manager. So impossible though it probably is Id like to add one point to u 5 point plan for success . Please FSG sack BR now and get on u knees and admit u made a stupid mistake in sacking Kenny and beg him to come back.

Dermalogica Scottsdale Celebrates Its One-Year Anniversary by Supporting Women's Economic Empowerment
The Dermalogica location in Scottsdale recently celebrated its one-year anniversary by honoring International Women's Day with an event to benefit Dermalogica's philanthropic arm, Financial Independence Through Entrepreneurship (joinFITE.org). The event kicked off with an informal fashion show in partnership with Phoenix Fashion Week, where models posed with their personalized Face Mapping skin analysis prescription sheets, emphasizing the need for a "custom designed" skin care regimen from a Dermalogica trained professional skin therapist.
The event supported FITE through $25 MicroZone treatments, which generated a matching donation from The Dermalogica Foundation to fund a micro-loan to a woman entrepreneur within the FITE network. During the evening, 16 micro-loans were funded, making progress toward the long-term FITE goal of funding 50,000 women worldwide.

OPI Announces Suzi Weiss-Fischmann Transition to Consultant Role
OPI Products Inc. has announced the transition of Suzi Weiss-Fischmann from OPI Co-Founder & Executive VP to OPI Consultant. Known worldwide as "The First Lady of Nails" for over 31 years, she will remain OPI's creative inspiration and brand ambassador for journalists and clients. Suzi's new role is effective July 1.
"My fascination with beauty began at an early age, and my journey has been a dream come true," said Weiss-Fischmann. "I have witnessed OPI's successful evolution in becoming the world leader in professional nail care. Now, more than ever, is the time for nails and I am excited to continue to share my expertise with nail fans across the world!"

Jane Iredale - The Skin Care Makeup Introduces New, Redesigned Packaging
Iredale Mineral Cosmetics, Ltd., manufacturer of jane iredale – THE SKIN CARE MAKEUP, recently unveiled its new product packaging as well as a new logo treatment. Characterized by a fresh layout, inviting colors and textures, integrated QR code technology, and environmentally responsible materials, the packaging symbolizes the brand's bright future and complements its 20th Anniversary this year.
"We've designed our new packaging to be clear, distinct, consistent and engaging, and are excited to begin our 20th anniversary year with a refreshing new look," says Sarah Steven, Vice President, Marketing for jane iredale. "While they may not realize it at the time, consumers actively evaluate packages on shelves in seconds. Our new packaging conveys our brand story with consumers through colors that represent the vibrancy and purity of nature, and special touches that emphasize the value and quality of our products."
The new packaging uses clean, bright, optimistic colors to capture the essence, mood, and feeling of the jane iredale brand. Coincidentally, one of the colors chosen for the logo is Radiant Orchid, which has since been named Pantone Color of the Year for 2014. The soft gray chosen for the font is more feminine than the ubiquitous black typeface seen on most makeup boxes, and the embossed treatment of the logo and soft touch of the carton add textural elements that pop from the shelf and feel luxurious in the hand.
Creatively placed QR codes are featured on the inside flap of each carton. When scanned, the QR codes direct users to a jane iredale application video demonstrating how to apply that particular product.
"Beauty is the second most-watched category on YouTube, and sharing videos through packaging is just one way to further engage with and educate consumers," says Steven.
Reflecting the brand's commitment to the environment, the paper used is fully recyclable and sourced from renewable resources. The ink uses natural tree resin systems and vegetable oils to reduce volatile organic compounds by over 75 percent, while also being UV curable, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and overall environmental impact.
The Leaping Bunny logo, the leading animal protection group for cruelty-free certification, appears on every carton and certifies jane iredale as cruelty-free - not allowing for any animal testing at any stage of product development.
The new packaging began its roll out in March 2014, starting with core foundations and the new Magic Hour collection.

Fireworks, Minnesota
Photograph by Joel Sartore, National Geographic
Photographing fireworks can be challenging but it's not impossible. In this gallery, get tips and tricks for taking the guesswork out of shooting this nighttime event, and get inspired to capture your own unique perspective.
Photo Tip: Turn off your flash and set your camera to manual mode. This allows you to control the exposure and aperture yourself. A good starting place for your settings is ISO 100, f/11, at 1/2 second. If the photos are looking too dim, vary the shutter speed while keeping the aperture the same.
Fireworks, Massachusetts
Photograph by Jeff Folger, My Shot
Fireworks explode over Marblehead, Massachusetts.
(This photo was submitted to My Shot.)
Photo Tip: Arrive early to scout out your location and choose your vantage point. Before the show begins, think about the foreground and background elements of the scene and how you might want to incorporate them. Manually set the focus for your scene before it gets dark. Focus on an area of sky where the fireworks will be, or on an object the same distance away. Once the fireworks start, you'll be ready to start shooting.
Fireworks, Manhattan
Photograph by Diane Cook and Len Jenschel, National Geographic
Fourth of July fireworks line up over the High Line in New York City.
Photo Tip: The long exposures required for firework photography mean slow shutter speeds. Keep your camera motionless by using a sturdy tripod and a shutter release cord. When shooting a scene that includes not just the sky but also other elements like a cityscape, keeping the horizon line straight is particularly important. Make sure your camera is level on the tripod.
Fireworks, Vancouver
Photograph by Pete Ryan, National Geographic
Fireworks over Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, mimic a sea urchin.
Photo Tip: Try varying your shots. The focal length you need depends on your distance from the burst and what you're trying to capture. If you want a tight shot that shows detail, you will want to use a zoom lens that goes to at least 200mm. Keep in mind that changing focal length will require refocusing in most zoom lenses. Check for this attribute before the show begins, while it is still light.
Fireworks, St. Louis
Photograph by Mike Theiss, National Geographic
The Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri, frames fireworks set off during the 200th anniversary of the Lewis and Clark expedition.
Photo Tip: A great way to capture action at the peak of the burst is to shoot in bulb mode. This allows you to create timed exposures based on changing conditions. You will want to use a type of remote shutter release to avoid touching the camera. Hit the shutter as the firework is launching and hold it down until the burst has faded, typically a few seconds.
Fireworks, Gulf Coast
Photograph by Payson Howard, My Shot
Spectators watch a fireworks display on the Gulf of Mexico.
(This photo was submitted to My Shot.)
Photo Tip: Choose a vantage point upwind from the blowing smoke. This makes for more comfortable shooting conditions, and from the right vantage point, the reflective quality of the smoke can add an element of interest to the shot.
Boy With Sparkler
Photograph by Jenn Blatty, My Shot
A boy plays with a sparkler on the Fourth of July.
(This photo was submitted to My Shot.)
Photo Tip: Tell the full story of the event by capturing what else is happening around you. When people are the main subject of your shot, expose for the faces, rather than the light source, to avoid fooling the light meter.

The first one is Two Eagle's, scheduled for the afternoon of May 29 at the Dixon Agency gym. The ceremony begins at 2:30, followed by a dinner at 4:00 and a two-hour pow-wow at 5:00. Next comes the College's on Saturday, June 6. Festivities will take place beginning at 5:30 p.m. at the Kicking Horse Job Corps Center. A dinner and powwow are planned in addition to the awarding of diplomas. Everyone is encouraged to attend these events and extend their good wishes to all our successful students this year. Intent clarified Poison Councilman E.W. Morigeau requests clarification of his April 24 action concerning Tribal-state talks regarding "jurisdiction for management of water": "Motion by E.W.

MAY IS, 1981 Vol ¡I "Flo . / NEW MOON OF THE BITTERR00T Council highlights... Lawyers to finalize bathhouse agreement The Hot Springs Bathhouse came that much closer to opening its doors this summer when the Tribal Council voted May 8 to allow the two interested parties' attorneys to work together on the finer details of a five-year lease. Terms of the lease include letting the community of Hot Springs have "a free hand" in running the place and making whatever improvements are necessary to make the business successful. Any profits realized, for the first five years anyway, will be turned back into the business. While attorneys Evelyn Stevenson and Rich Gebhardt work out the "nitty gritty", organizers in Hot Springs will be setting up a corporation - necessary to obtain certain types of funding - and be preparing to sell stock to raise money for the facility's upgrading. Future plans call for a swimming pool and maybe a restaurant and golf course later. George Plummer, who is expected to be named manager, assured the Council that tribal members 55 years and older will continue to receive free baths while other tribal members will receive a discount rate, provided they have a tribal "I.D." card. (Those cards are available from the Tribes' Law and Order department in Pablo.) No firm opening date has been set. * In other business May 8, the Council voted (for perhaps the fourth time) to ground all councilmen not turning in trip reports for off-the-rez travel. (Continued on page 3) 'A real crisis exists': Homemaker Program in trouble The Homemaker Program -- where eligible elders or disabled persons receive help enabling them to be relatively independent in their own homes - was due to expire May 15. Thanks to the efforts of several dozen people May 8, the program received a reprieve pending further review. Those several dozen people included some 50 elders and their homemakers who filled the Council Chambers in Pablo last week in an effort to keep the program going. On the hot seat was BIA's Billings Area Director, Anson Baker, the fellow who ultimately controls the checkbook. The problem, according to spokesman Evelyn Stevenson, tribal attorney, is "if you're getting welfare of some sort, you're not eligible for General Assistance (GA)". So states BIA's social services regulations and un- fortunately, the Homemaker Program is a component of GA. On first impression, Stevenson explained, those regulations seem to help avoid the problem of welfare sponging. On the other hand, those rules serve to deny Indian elders the "equal protection and rights" they're entitled to under federal and state law. Those laws say homemaker services should be made a-vailable according to need, not income. Underlying everything is the fact that BIA was able to peaceably provide homemaker services for 15 years while they had control of social services, but as soon as the Tribes contracted, hassles cropped up including a sudden funding ceiling. The bottom line, Stevenson told the area director, was that "some of the (Conhnued on poo/11)

Innovation in Electric Vehicle Technology? Easy as A123
An A123 battery helped the University of Michigan's solar car win the American Solar Challenge 2010.
To find an example of the innovations highlighted at the "Electrifying the Economy—Educating the Workforce" Michigan workshop recently, the Energy Blog traveled to the A123 Systems' battery production plant in Livonia, Michigan. Thanks to DOE support, A123 is rolling out advanced battery technology that is helping power many of the electric vehicles that are on America's roads today.
A123 Systems began as a team of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). With Department of Energy support, it grew from a small start-up company in 2001 to an international business with more than 2,000 employees. What's more, in just one decade of partnership with the DOE, A123 has developed advanced lithium-ion batteries based on a unique nanoscale lithium-iron-phosphate cathode material that allows batteries to operate with improved safety, excellent cycle and calendar life, and higher rates of charge and discharge than previous generations of lithium batteries. See the Energy Blog post.

Please help to bring affliction back
Posted 20 November 2012 - 09:35 PM
I came back to the game last week and I have to say its really quite sad what seems to have been done to affliction. I refuse to play one shot no cast demo or chaos bolt specs. I just cant do it.
Even if you arent a warlock, help this thread please. If locks had access to affliction, you would see a lot less demo idiots running around
Thanks and lets hope we get affliction back.

Depending on how exactly the aura nerf goes through next patch, Warlocks could be in a pretty fucking terrible state overall.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 12:11 AM
It's probably a bad sample to go off of but with current self survivability / self healing / class support from Warriors, SPriests, etc. affliction doesn't bring the raw damage to finish off teams. My warlock was able to top the damage charts every game, though. I'm sure Affli could work if paired with a Mage or Warrior (or just anything that has high crits).
On topic, I don't play any of these classes/specs but has anyone tried out Demo/Feral/Shaman? I would imagine it is an amazing comp right now but I haven't yet run into it.

Depending on how exactly the aura nerf goes through next patch, Warlocks could be in a pretty fucking terrible state overall.
There are 2 reasons why aff is dead;
Malefic Grasp. The while spec's damage is built around this one spell.
Check that out. About 45% of single target damage is Malefic Grasp. This is Blizzard's excuse to effectively half the damage of dots, to avoid the "problem" of multi-dotting, something aff PvP thrived on. This is now dead, and I doubt they're going to remove MG and mess up aff PvE just for PvP.
Haunt costing a shard. Really. What is this? Nerf Haunt damage, remove shard cost. Aff PvE is too high damage anyway.
Life Tap. Remember that time when Blizzard stated they want to make Life Tap cost a % of your max hp, and everyone went ballistic? Well they ninja-patched it into MoP and I've not seen a single complaint. The total lack of self healing, combined with Life Tap, I swear sometimes I end up half-dead just from dealing damage.
- Remove Malefic Grasp and Haunt from Grimoire of Sacrifice, replace it with UA (including UA dispel), Corruption and Agony.
- Buff Siphon Life glyph (makes corr heal you) from 20% of damage done, to 100%. 20% is horrible. 100% will probably offset the life tapping required. In addition, make it heal your pet for the same amount, making Soul Link talent less of a waste of space.
- Nerf Haunt damage and remove the shard cost. Aff PvE is too high anyway, and haunt is basically always up in PvE.
- Double or triple the damage from UA dispel. It's just not doing it's job.
I think the above, plus the new Kil'jaeden's Cunning, will make aff viable without making it overpowered.
Blood Fear should be reworked to;
"Your fear is instant when used against a unit who has inflicted physical damage on you in the past 5 sec."
Keeps the survival aspect of blood fear. Removes the ability to just spam instant CC on random healers with no counter.

There's a very easy way for them to adjust this in a way without affecting PvE. Two of the changes above will have no effect in PvE. The third one, there's several ways to do it:
1) Introduce a glyph that reduces MG damage but increases dot damage, make it work out as a slight DPS loss in PvE simulations. They already did this with the Imp Swarm glyph for demo - this is exactly how it's like there, and nobody uses it in PvE, while its a core glyph in PvP.
2) Use PvP power. Introduce a glyph or a talent change that makes dots hit more on pvp targets or hit through pvp power or scale more with pvp power or something along those lines, at the cost of MG damage. This could be baked into anything - from gosac until a new glyph (we currently have a major glyph slot almost completely vacant in pvp, hint hint). Personally I'd love it if they did something with the grimoires to make us use pets in pvp again, but that's just me - could easily come along with this change though.
The only adjustment to shards is maybe slightly increasing their proc rate.

They need to just fix blood fear, I think unbound will is a good talent also so we wouldn't really be fucked on that tier even if blood fear would be slightly overnerfed.
Obviously fix the dot damage, and make UA dispel hit harder. But make it so that we don't have so many instants, soul shard soul swap is pretty braindead if you ask me, make it so that it costs 2 shards or something. It should be situational not something you use in the start of the game to dot everything up and then spam felflame.
Fix curse of agony, whats the point of it hitting harder by time? The scaling of this spell is just terrible, it starts super low. Why? Just make it a proper normal dot or just reduce the difference between the lowest damage hit and the highest damage hit.
I like the haunt mechanics but as it was said it should be undispellable. Its a decision that makes affliction warlocks hit more on a single target with a cost of a soul shard and its not instant, its just not so good right now because dot damage is terrible, the better dot damage is the better haunt will become.

AVB - Sense and sensibility
Before I start, I admit that I am still not convinced by AVB, so my comments are biased.
I really think that AVB is walking a dodgy line by having a go at the fans. I am still quite happy to give the man at least til the end of the season, but so far, the football we have been playing (IMHO) since he took over has been somewhat lacking for me. I can't deny that he's been getting results, but I'm not sure that simply getting results is what 'fans' in general are after. We seem slow in moving the ball and lacking in movement - loads of possession (which you'd expect with quality players) - but a lack of focus.
I also know that a lot of the playing staff has changed and players take time to settle, but I had hoped that by now we would have been playing with a bit more flair and panache - even with just using the 'old' players.
What also concerns me is that I thought this season, with the changes at Chelsea, City and Utd - and with Pool and the Woolwich bunch still not quite the finished article, that we could have steadily improved and pushed on - and had that chance as the other 'top' teams were also in transition. But then we go out and spend stupid money on a whole raft of players, which then gives AVB the issue of working out his best 11 - which has the inevitable impact of slowing down the development of a particular 'style' (do you play Townsend or Lamela, Holtby or Eriksen, Sandro or Dembele, Lemmon or Chadli, Capoue or...which centre back pairing? Who at left back? Do we need Rose and Walker for the style to gel?......match any 10 issues from 100 combinations).
I still don't think that spending the Bale cash on a raft of players was sensible without having a target plan. I personally prefer the 'see an issue and fix' type approach.
I will end by then saying though, that I am also not certain that AVB is the problem - I am still at a loss as to who is the person who sources and buys the players - was it a Levy/Baldninny thing to spend the money - and wasSort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Common sense and sensibility would surely say get behind the guy, John, and see how his season pans out. Vocal support at the Lane is a must, plus the fact you guys aren't doing too badly at the minute.
H---Talking of support, where's the squad on here gone, used to one od the best.

I'm not sure that the fans are/were anything but behind HIM (in general), but fans sing when (what) they want, when they want. They tend to try to lift the team when they're down and sing from 'joy' when winning. The problem with Spurs is that we're doing 'well' in way of points and places - so there's no singing required to lift the team to win per se - and the football just isn't (IMHO) of a style to get them singing from joy - a no man's land. So it's a two way street - if AVB wants the fans to sing, then the style has to give them something to sing about. Be amusing to hear what songs are sung tonight.
Irrespective of what some pundits think, football as a spectator sport IS about entertainment - the players are paid like film stars. It's only the clubs who make money out of the punters who want to keep the '....its not about entertainment....its about loyalty....its in the blood....' bit alive - at it's in their interest. If George Clooney turned out boring performance after boring performance, would theatres still be packed with people watching and believing the Studio line of '.....its not about entertainment....its about loyalty... George is an icon...he's in your blood....'. Football for years has relied upon the Emperors new clothes stopping the fans from seeing that what they're presented with 50% of the time is absolute dross.
The last paragraph was tongue in cheek - but I take my lead from Danny Blanchflower:
"The great fallacy is that the game is first and last about winning. It's nothing of the kind. The game is about glory. It is about doing things in style, with a flourish, about going out and beating the other lot, not waiting for them to die of boredom."
...and remind me again what our motto is: Audere est Facere? - which if my schoolboy latin doesn't fail me means Audi's are made...
Call me a cynic, but the '...the fans made all the difference....' comment seemed more like a man either told that the fans are the ones who pay his wages or a man trying to deflect attention away from a £99billion team only winning on penalties (and the odd one at that) against a team who cost just south of two bob.
And if it takes a crowd of 36,000 to make that difference, I hate to think what is required for us ever to beat a team by more than two at home.

NAPA -- Rookie defensive end Shelby Harris provided one of the bright spots for the Raiders in their exhibition-opening loss to the Minnesota Vikings when he recorded a sack on a play that resulted in a fumble.
Yet, that's not enough collateral for Harris to be immune from a scolding. On Sunday, he was the target of a tongue lashing by coach Dennis Allen for a perceived lack of effort on a particular play.
"Just a reminder about the way we want to practice," Allen said afterward.
Allen's brief outburst was directed at Harris, yet he no doubt raised his voice so that everyone got the message that there's a standard expected of everyone at all times.
"It means don't get comfortable," Harris said afterward. "We came out here to work. That's what he wants us to do, and that's what is expected of us, to come out here and work. I respect him for that. He's willing to get on anyone."
The Raiders failed to meet Allen's standards in Friday's 10-6 loss to the Vikings, with 13 penalties, several dropped passes and inconsistent defensive play.
"They are things that, through my experience, I've seen them happen in the first preseason game," Allen said. "You don't like it, it's not acceptable, but that's why we play preseason games, so that we get a chance to work on these things."
The Raiders conclude the Napa portion of their training camp Monday morning. They then fly to Oxnard, where they will take part in joint practices with the Dallas Cowboys on Tuesday and Wednesday.
On Friday, the Raiders host the Detroit Lions at the Coliseum. In other words, there's limited time for the players to get things worked out before their next dress rehearsal for the regular season.
Allen put his players through a fast-paced practice that featured extensive work in red-zone offense and defense, the two-minute drill and field-goal operation.
"It was good to get back out here after playing a game, get a chance to make some corrections, get out and get some more work in," Allen said. "We got better as a football team."
Harris, a seventh-round draft pick in May, believes he's getting better every day. In fact, he said, he has seen enough to know that he belongs in the NFL.
"I can definitely play at this level," Harris said. "There's no doubt about it in my head. I can go out there and be an impact player wherever I'm needed.
"I have the confidence to play in this league, and I have the skill to play in this league. Now it's just to show everyone else that I have the skill to be able to play every day."
"I still don't have anything to where I can give you an accurate timeline," Allen said of Hayden's return to full-team practice. "It was encouraging that he was out here on the field and able to do some things on the field. Hopefully the process can begin to speed up. A lot of that is going to depend upon how he responds after a day's work."
Hayden was Oakland's first-round pick in 2013. He missed the final eight games last season after he suffered a groin injury.
Linebacker Kaluka Maiava practiced Sunday for the first time since he injured a hamstring early in camp.

WASHINGTON -- House Republicans put forth a $2.2 trillion "fiscal cliff" counteroffer to President Barack Obama on Monday, calling for raising the eligibility age for Medicare, lowering cost-of-living hikes for Social Security benefits and bringing in $800 billion in higher tax revenue -- but not raising rates for the wealthy.
The White House declared the Republicans still weren't ready to "get serious" and again vowed tax rate increases will be in any measure Obama signs to prevent the government from the cliff's automatic tax hikes and sharp spending cuts.
With the clock ticking toward the year-end deadline, House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and other Republicans said they were proposing a "reasonable solution" for negotiations that Boehner says have been going nowhere. Monday's proposal came in response to Obama's plan last week to raise taxes by $1.6 trillion over the coming decade but largely exempt Medicare and Social Security from budget cuts.
Though the GOP plan proposes to raise $800 billion in higher tax revenue over the same 10 years, it would keep the Bush-era tax cuts -- including those for wealthier earners targeted by Obama -- in place for now. Dismissing the idea of raising any tax rates, the Republicans said the new revenue would come from closing loopholes and deductions while lowering rates.
Boehner called that a "credible plan" and said he hoped the administration would "respond in a timely and responsible way." The offer came after the administration urged Republicans to detail their proposal to cut popular benefit programs like Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid.
The White House complained the latest offer was still short on details about what loopholes would be closed or deductions eliminated, and it insisted that any compromise include higher tax rates for upper-income earners.
Asked directly whether the country would go over the cliff unless GOP lawmakers backed down, administration officials said yes. Officials said they remained hopeful that scenario could be avoided, saying the president continues to believe that going over the cliff would be damaging to the economy. And they signaled that Obama wouldn't insist on bringing the top tax rate all the way back to the 39.6 percent rates of the Clinton era. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about internal White House deliberations.
Earlier Monday, Obama answered questions on Twitter for an hour as the White House sought to keep up the pressure on the issue.
In response to a question about his insistence on higher tax rates for the wealthiest earners, Obama said that "high end tax cuts do (the) least for economic growth & cost almost $1T." By contrast, he said, "extending middle class cuts boosts consumer demand & growth."

Cal fans, beware: Grilled bear isn't on our menu, but we're offering up extra servings of our other specialty: hubris.
You can't beat our "Big Game Burger," featuring fresh bison, or the smaller juicy "The Axe" beef burger, with calorie counts higher than your combined SAT scores.
They're served well done. Because we don't do things any other way.
Yes, it's true that "The Farm" doesn't grow much these days except engineers. The only corn left on campus just had its DNA sequenced.
But we honor Jane and Leland's memories at Stanford Stadium's "Farmhouse" Gourmet Food Court, where $6 will buy you an iced cappuccino, made from imported Kona beans.
And while the cows and chickens are long gone, our menu offers antibiotic-free Niman Ranch ribs and free-range Rocky Junior chicken. (Thank you, Petaluma.)
Admit it, Cal: Hummus at a football game is like Chateaubriand at an Occupy protest on Sproul Plaza. Save the organic bliss and hemp milk for anthro majors, not athletes.
The potatoes in our Waffle Fries look like they were grown with high octane Miracle-Gro. Don't worry about their luminescent orange glow, or a texture that resembles Highway 80 roadkill -- the world-renowned Stanford Hospital ER is just around the corner.
You think you're so multicultural? We've got Feta Cheese Pretzels and Tio Pepe's Churros. Even All-American Buffalo Chicken Wings come with a "bleu" cheese dressing, a culinary idea probably inspired by that annoying guy in the French department.
We even do color diversity. Our cotton candy comes in three hues: Pink! Yellow! Blue!
We've heard your hot dogs are more boring than a freshman seminar in gender studies. Try ours: Jumbo Sausage on Warm Pretzel Bread or German Bratwurst with apricot chutney.
We won't lie here. Sadly, no real beer was involved in the making of our fragrant $6 Gordon Biersch Garlic Fries. And if the game doesn't give you a heart attack, these might. But for a small donation toward our $18.7 billion endowment, we might throw in a pair of defibrillator paddles.
And so you don't forget us, for $12 we'll sell you Souvenir Popcorn in a Stanford-logo plastic bucket that's big enough to hold Google stock options.
Yeah, yeah, you gave the world the free speech movement. Good on ya, Cal. But -- sorry -- it does not count as a foodstuff.
Here's our cultural contribution: the "Fountain Hopper." For $9 and a chance to stand in line next to the next Sergey Brin, you'll get a taste of fresh Alaskan salmon.
Game on!
