Fixed a bug that caused sticky posts to be shown first in the featured posts slider, recent posts widget, reviews widget, and on the reviews page.
Added meta tag which forces Internet Explorer to run in standards mode. Ironically, this breaks HTML validation.
Added Google+ icon to social profiles.
Moved Theme Settings panel under Appearance, so it’s accessible from the Themes page along with Background, Menus, and Widgets.
