 * Hi everyone. This one is baffling me as I have used this same code on another
   blog and had success. Here is the issue: I am building a blog within another 
   blog. I have installed Category Template Inheritor to do this. I have also set
   up a template file called “blog” and am calling two custom queries. The problem
   lies with the paging. I have set it up as instructed here: [http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop](http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop)
   and here: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts).
 * Paging however, will not go, no matter what variation I am working with. Here
   is a synopsis of the code in question from here([http://wp.corpedia.com/blog](http://wp.corpedia.com/blog)):
 *     ```
       <?php
       /*
       Template Name: Blog
       */
       ?>
   
       <?php get_header(); ?>
   
       <?php $my_query = new WP_Query('cat=10&showposts=3');
         while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
         $do_not_duplicate = $post->ID;
       ?>
       <?php endwhile; ?>
   
       <?php
       $page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
       query_posts("cat=8&showposts=20&paged=$page");
       if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
       if( $post->ID == $do_not_duplicate ) continue; update_post_caches($posts);
       ?>
   
       	<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
       	<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" border="0" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
       		<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
       </div>
   
       <?php endwhile; ?>
   
       <?php else : ?>
   
       	<div class="post">
       	<h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
       		<div class="entry">
       		<p>Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.</p>
       		</div>
       	</div>
   
       <?php endif; ?>
   
       <?php get_footer(); ?>
       ```
