The congressionally mandated "Beyond Compliance" concept, viewed by many as a "pay to play" or buying-favor enforcement system, has potential to favor large motor carriers according to comments filed June 20 by the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association.
Even with the safety measurement system CSA currently undergoing review and possibly facing an overhaul, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration issued a notice of proposed rulemaking on April 20 that posed the concept of tacking a new category onto the program.
Moving quickly on a mandate in the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act, FMCSA sought comments on a Beyond Compliance program. The idea behind the program is to reward motor carriers that go above and beyond the regulations to ensure safe operation.
The program is to allow recognition, including credit or an improved percentile ranking in CSA, for motor carriers that install "advanced safety equipment;" use enhanced driver fitness measures; adopt fleet safety management tools, technologies and programs; or satisfy other standards that are deemed appropriate by FMCSA.
OOIDA outlined several concerns with the proposed program, including a potential bias toward large fleets and the possibility that the safest drivers and motor carriers will not benefit.
At the core of many of OOIDA's objections is a motor carrier's inclusion in the Compliance, Safety, Accountability safety measurement system Beyond Compliance category just for installing devices rather than because of a company's reduction in crashes. That, coupled with unproven success of add-on "safety" systems such as speed limiters, has OOIDA skeptical of the accuracy of any sort of reward program improving a CSA score.
The Association's comments detail a 2015 OOIDA Foundation study that compared large fleets with electronic logs and speed limiters to motor carriers that did not employ the technology.
While the motor carriers with the technology demonstrated better CSA scores compared with motor carriers not using the technology, the crash rates were higher than the motor carriers that did not use speed limiters or electronic logs.
"This effectively demonstrates that compliance with the rules does not necessarily correlate with actual safety," OOIDA comments state.
Additionally, a dependence on CSA data will leave a skewed picture benefiting large motor carriers if tendencies of roadside inspectors and data sufficiency are not taken into consideration.
"Of great concern to OOIDA is the effect of the program on motor carriers who have no reportable crashes and an insufficient number of inspections in the (Motor Carrier Management Information System or MCMIS) database to create a disadvantage for small carriers by their exclusion from the Beyond Compliance program," OOIDA's comments state.
OOIDA reports in its comments that Association members frequently find that when they are inspected, if no violation is found, they are often sent on their way with no "clean" inspection report being filed.
"This is a bias in the proposed program detrimental to small motor carriers," the comments state.
The Association urges FMCSA to focus on actual crash reduction in any Beyond Compliance program. One that rewards longtime safe drivers and motor carriers rather than propping up the CSA scores of motor carriers with high crash rates just because they are using a new technology. All technology and programs should be evaluated for effectiveness on an individual basis and not accepted conceptually as improving safety on the word of vendors, the Association states.
"Ultimately, the results and recognition awarded under this program should be based on how well the Beyond Compliance action improves a motor carrier's crash record or maintains a motor carrier's exemplary crash record," OOIDA comments state. "Recognition awarded under this program should be withdrawn if those expectations are not fulfilled."

To see more of the Ethnology Collection, Visit the Ethnology page here.
The Ethnology Collection began in 1939 with the donation of a small collection of South American materials. Since then the collection has grown to over 5,500 objects, with over half of the materials from North and Central America. Objects from South America, Africa, Europe, Asia, and Oceania are included as well. The Collection spans an approximate 150+ year period, from the mid-1800s to the late-1900s. They represent predominately horticultural, pastoral, and hunting-gathering peoples living in semi-arid and arid environments.
The Collection consists of two types: Systematic Collections generated by field work with associated documentation, and Synoptic Collections generated by donations and purchases with little or minimal documentation. Three field-generated collections – the Cordry, the Yaqui, and the Qashqa'i – form the core of the Ethnology Collection. A number of smaller collections generated by individuals also have significant research, exhibit, and educational value because of the donors'/collectors' meticulous notes and subsequent research-generated information.

that maybe the developer had given up on keeping the Android version going!
Was even more happy trying the Beta version finding out that it was not a small cosmetic change
but a real one with many new functions.
The most exciting one being the ability to automate any controller on any note on any of the eight sound generators and in a very easy way that makes way for experimentation and fun.
Having eight tracks instead of six and having six seconds of mono sampling time
(instead of like before one second) does not hurt.
One thing more that is very nice is that if you tried it before and found it confusing it is now easier to understand as you now only have to press and hold an icon and there will be a description of what it is.
When I first got Nanoloop it was not easy to understand everything, as it looks cryptic and does come with it's own personal interface that is not used by any other music application or program in general
(that I know about).
Not having much of tutorials for the Android version had to learn from the Gameboy tutorials that existed,
in either case now it is easier to learn / figure Nanoloop out.
One last thing is that Nanoloop is great for older devices as well so if you have an older device it still have at least one very good multi track / sequencer / synthesizer / sampler application that it can run.
Here is the update info:
- per-step control for all parameters
- variable pattern length
- 8 channels
- 6 seconds sample length (mono)
- fine-tune samples
- filter resonance
- more "gain" range
- soft clipping
- adjustable font/icon size
- new layout
The interface has been simplified, there are no more triple-taps, double taps are not needed either, except for panning.
In most cases, a long press on an icon reveals info and/or a menu.
Playstore link:
And to say goodbye to the old Nanoloop here is one of my favorite compositions for Nanoloop.
Yes it has been posted before but what can a poor Frank do?

The View from Here: Recommended Romanian authors
Posted by BookerTalk
We're off to Romania for our next country in The View From Here series on literature from around the world. Our guide is Georgina who blogs at Readers' High Tea.
Let's meet Georgina
Hello! My name is Georgiana and I live in Bucharest, Romania. My academic background is a blend of computer science and business studies, and at the moment I work as a management consultant. As hobbies, I enjoy travelling to places I've never been before and doing sports (snowboarding and squash). I've been interested in books since childhood, and recently this interest has materialized in a blog – Readers' High Tea. I created it as a cosy place where readers share thoughts about the books they read, find what book to read next, and also read about other bookish stuff like discovering nice bookstores around the world.
I am currently experimenting a lot with my reading, so I do not have particular authors I like and read a lot. Carlos Ruiz Zafón is the exception here, as his gothic style made me fall in love with his Cemetery of Forgotten Books series. I read both classics and modern authors, mostly foreign ones. The most recent book I've read and enjoyed (a lot!) is All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr.
Q Tell us about the traditions of literature in your country. Are there any particular styles or characteristics for literature from your region? Any themes or issues that you see reflected frequently?
The most common themes reflected in the Romanian literature are rural life (inspiration from nature, folklore, the daily lives of peasants), social and political conditions, and the effects of the war on people's lives (including the struggles of intellectuals during the war). Modern writers also tackle subjects as spirituality, religion, and self discovery.
Q What books do you remember having to study in school that could be considered classics of Romanian literature?
Romanian literature is studied in-depth during high school years, ranging from from poetry to drama and novels. When it comes to the ones considered classics, I would mention Moromeţii (The Moromete Family) by Marin Preda and Ion by Liviu Rebreanu – two novels that portrait the ordinary peasants' life. Another one is Enigma Otiliei (Otilia's Enigma) by George Călinescu, a novel that presents the life of people in Bucharest at the beginning of the 20th century. Maitreyi (Bengal Nights) by Mircea Eliade, one of my favourite books I've studies in school, depicts the writer's love story with the Indian girl Maitreyi Devi.
Regarding poetry, Mihai Eminescu is for sure considered one of the greatest Romanian poets. Tudor Arghezi, Nichita Stanescu (he was inventing words called unwords), and Lucian Blaga are also classics studied at school.
Q What books and authors are very popular right now in Romania?
The Vegetarian by Han Kang and The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins are very popular at the moment. Also the recent Harry Potter related books (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them) are quite trendy. In general, young adult books are popular, and also many self-development books (some examples: time management – Musai List by Octavian Pantis, life style – The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo)
Q What recommendations would you have for readers who want to discover books written by authors from Romania ?
Unfortunately many Romanian authors are not translated in English. From the authors that are translated, I recommend Bengal Nights by Mircea Eliade, he was a Romanian historian of religion, fiction writer, philosopher, and professor at the University of Chicago. Nostalgia and Blinding by Mircea Cartarescu are also worth checking out, as Cartarescu he is an awarded contemporary writer. Another recommendation is Book of Mirrors by Eugen Chirovici, which is said to be global publishing phenomenon.

Hi! Would you like to check out my blog as well, and even follow it if you would like? Thank you!(I am from Romania, but my blog is in English)
It's so funny how Harry Potter transcends, well, everything 🙂 This is a great series, BookerTalk. I was very interested to read this interview!
the guest bloggers for this series do such a great job of sharing their knowledge. if you know of anyone you think might be willing to write a pst do let me know
Karen, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to share my thoughts about Romanian literature with all your readers ! It was a very nice exercise, and for sure it inspired me to read more books written by Romanian authors 🙂
Apart from Mircea Eliade (his religion books and Diary of a Short-Sighted Adolescent, as MarinaSofia mentions above), I hadn't heard of or read any other Romanian literature. There's a whole world of books out there, and so little gets through via UK publication or English translation! I love this series you do for that reason.
I am discovering a whole different world through these guest posts…..they are rarely available in book shops so without the recommendations I'd never know of them
How lovely to meet a fellow Romanian here! I will certainly be watching out for her blog and agree whole-heartedly with her recommendations. Most of the Romanian writers of the past who have been translated are now out of print, but there are a couple of recent publications which might be of interest: Eliade's charming and somewhat gauche description of teenage life in post-WW1 Bucharest in his Diary of a Short-Sighted Adolescent (Istros Books) or Mihail Sebastian's description of life as an intellectual Jew in 1930s Bucharest in For Two Thousand Years (Penguin Modern Classics), Scarred Hearts by Max Blecher (Old Street Publishing) and Dan Lungu's rather funny and scathing I'm an Old Commie! (Dalkey Archive).
What I'm struck by is the ability people have to read and write in English as a second language with such ease and style! Really interesting to read about specific books and their place in education, culture, popular imagination – while the books are different I thought there were similarities in subject matter in some of those education texts between Romania and Scotland. And having just looked at her blog I'm with Georgiana on the 'unputdownable' effect of the Carlos Ruiz Zafon books!
who would have thought Scotland and Romania would have some similarities beyond high mountain landscapes??
God, I'd love to be able to speak a little Romanian and read some of these in the original language.

Abomination is the first novel I've read in a long time that felt like legitimate horror to me. I've read books with monsters before, and long time readers of my blog know it's something I actively seek out, but of all the novels I've read so far this year, this is the one that had the horror fan in me jumping with joy. It didn't "scare" me, but that in no way hindered my enjoyment of the novel. Gary Whitta's novel is creepy, intense, dramatic, filled with rich characters, and some surprising turns. An absolute must for all horror/fantasy fans. A wild, brutal ride, and one of my top reads for this year.
He is England's greatest knight, the man who saved the life of Alfred the Great and an entire kingdom from a Viking invasion. But when he is called back into service to combat a plague of monstrous beasts known as abominations, he meets a fate worse than death and is condemned to a life of anguish, solitude, and remorse.
She is a fierce young warrior, raised among an elite order of knights. Driven by a dark secret from her past, she defies her controlling father and sets out on a dangerous quest to do what none before her ever have—hunt down and kill an abomination, alone.
When a chance encounter sets these two against one another, an incredible twist of fate will lead them toward a salvation they never thought possible—and prove that the power of love, mercy, and forgiveness can shine a hopeful light even in history's darkest age.
I should say right off the bat that this isn't a novel for the faint of heart. The descriptions Whitta uses are brutal. Even I cringed at some of the images the story put in my mind. But that right there is the brilliance. I could visualize and sense everything. I felt like I was right there with the characters, experiencing the same astonishing horrors and brutality they were.
The characters are awesome. It's impossible not to love Wulfric, who is the definition of a tragic hero. He's almost too good to be honest, but I adore the guy and loved all the arcs he went through. The second main character, Indra... Talk about a handful. A feisty, strong woman who never needs to be rescued, I thought she was a bit too intense at some points. Though having said that, I loved being witness to her adventures and battles. Both characters were very strong and ideal leads for a horror/fantasy novel.
For me, the highlight was the monsters. Each one was more horrifying than the last and they carried unique weapons or fighting skills. I never knew what to expect from them, and the twist that carried them through the story was really engaging.
I'm itching to give this novel five stars, I really am, but there were a couple things that irked me. First, I found the pacing at the beginning a bit strange. Everything was moving really quickly, and I didn't know why until the end of that part when the twist began.
There were also a couple major events that I predicted early on. The biggest one was pretty obvious, and while it didn't alter my enjoyment of the story in any way, I wasn't exactly stunned when it came to light.
Finally, the villains. The first one was crazy and I wanted to see more of him. The second seemed to come out of nowhere, and until I knew he was the villain, I actually felt sorry for him. He just didn't seem like a good choice for an enemy, and was very anti-climactic.
But as a whole? Abomination rocked my world. Great characters, intense action, terrifying monsters, and incredible suspense. Maybe not recommended for readers who don't like gore, but if you like horror and light fantasy mixed with a little history? This is definitely the book for you.

Shayananna's DancingBlonde Site
Protein Blintz
Ingredients:2 eggs1/3 cup dry curd cottage cheesefrozen blueberries, defrosted to room temperature
(you can use whatever fruit you like here, but I use frozen blueberries since they keep well for long periods when fresh berries
aren't in season, and they're not packed in syrup)
Sweetener (Sugar, Splenda, Stevia) - Optional
Directions:Beat eggs and pour into small nonstick frying pan heated over medium heat, as if for
an omelet. When the edges begin to firm up, push them towards the centre so that the runny stuff in the middle puddles out
and cooks.
After doing this once or twice, spoon cottage cheese and blueberries on top. Allow the eggs to set fully. The bottom
of the omelet should be golden brown (turn it up with a spatula to check).
You can either roll up the omelet into a cylinder like a blintz, or simply slide it off the pan and fold it in half like
an omelet. If this isn't sweet enough, try beating a little bit of sugar or sweetener (like Splenda) into the eggs beforehand.
I don't like it too sweet.

Publish Apps with Xamarin Studio for Mac
I already explained it how you can publish Android apps the easiest way with Visual Studio and Xamarin Android 7. Publish apps to the app store is similar than publishing apps to the play store.
Create the archive
In the context menu on the IOS project there is an option "create archive" which starts the archiving process. Make sure that you have set the configuration to debug.
After the build is completed, the overview of all created archives is shown. The same window also appears when "view archives" in the context menu is clicked.
Sign and Distribute
By clicking sign and distribute, the archive can be published. Next to app store deployment, you can choose enterprise or adhoc deployment. For enterprise development you need an enterprise developer account. After selecting the appropriate option, you have to choose the correct provisioning profile. After creating the .ipa file you have to upload your application to the app store via Application Loader. There is right no no other option correctly than this tool, because there is no web portal or similar like in the Google Play Store to upload your .ipa file.
Next to the way above, there is also another way to create the .ipa file. By setting the configuration to adhoc and change some settings or change the release configuration so that an .ipa file is created. This could be interesting for you if you use Visual Studio or if you want to integrate it into your build process.

Block 1 Block 2 Block 3 Block 4
Squidoo Lens with entire series: Self-Healing from Trauma
This block picks up where the last exercise left off. If you had any trouble with making your list of needs or if you would like some feedback on your list please let me know. If you have any trouble with this exercise on analyzing your needs let me know. Remember to have your enjoyment basket near by while you are working with this.
Hopefully you are still making time each day to do one thing for yourself that makes you feel good and one thing that you enjoy doing. If you you do not have time to spend for yourself everyday, at least try to do things for yourself every other day.
Now that you have made your list of needs and organized it into the order you want to work on them, you need to analyze that list and order to determine that you are approaching it the best way possible. Sometimes we will think there is one thing more important than another when really we cannot achieve the first thing without first doing the second thing.
Go back through the answers to your questions about each need. Make sure that there isn't an underlying need that must be met prior to pursuing the main need you have listed. For example if you listed getting a place to live as your number one first need that you must address; what do you need to do BEFORE you can even start trying to accomplish that? Maybe you need a job; but then maybe you have to obtain proper work clothes. Thinking about all of this to start with will save you time and frustration in the long run.
Maybe you are having problems ordering your list. Right now it seems like you need to get everything done all at once and you are running out of time to accomplish that. If that is the case then you could approach if from the perspective that all of your needs are most important. Try listing the sub-needs under the main needs in that case. Make it look more like a To Do List.
Realize that none of your needs are frivolous. If you feel that you need something in your life then you do. What you need to examine is why you need it and how much of it you think you require. You may have put that you need clothes at the very top of your list, and that may be true. If you are looking for a job and only have one outfit, then having more clothes is very important. However, on the other hand if you already have a closet full of clothes and having more would just make you feel better for some reason, then you may need to move clothes down the list and replace it with something else. Don't remove that need from your list totally though.
There may be other needs that really are a surface need for a deeper need. Such as you may have listed a cell phone high on your list, or you may have added manicure or makeup as a last thought. These may actually point to your need of security without you realizing it. In the back of your mind you may be thinking that if you had a cell phone you'd be safer and could call for help if you needed to. Or if you got a manicure or makeup you would look better and attract people to you. So examine the reasons for your needs, and you may find that your list is actually getting shorter; especially if you are sub-categorizing your needs.
Go back to the questions again and see which needs actually require someone else to do something before you can meet that need. Really think through it and determine if there is any way you can meet that need without someone else's help. There are times when we think someone else needs to do something first only later on do we realize we really didn't need to wait on them.
There are some things though that we really must wait for others to do and that can get frustrating. Before letting frustration take over, attempt to approach the person if possible and check their timing as to when they think they are going to be done with their portion or part. Don't ever just assume that they already know you are waiting on them unless you have already spoken with them yourself.
At this point it is enough to know which emotions you feel when thinking of each need. By putting those emotions down on paper you are essentially acknowledging them, and for the time being that is enough. You may have had to keep your feelings to yourself for so long that this simple admission in and of itself may feel like a release. You will look at and analyze your emotions later.
Once you have worked through your needs, answered the questions pertaining to each one and analyzed it all it is time to get started on accomplishing the tasks that will lead to meeting each need. Some tasks may meet more than one need and thus save you time and effort. By realizing that in the beginning you will save yourself time in the long run.
There may also be some things that you can "get started" and then move on to something else. Such as; you may need a car, job, and place to live. You can start looking for all three at the same time, as long as you realize to yourself that you really can't get the first car you see if you haven't found a job to pay for it. Whereas you will also know that you probably can't take the job you want that is 30 miles away if you don't have a car yet. So you may have to take a closer job until you save enough to get the car.
This may all seem like a never ending cycle. However, starting out by thinking about and realizing what is possible today versus what may be possible later on will get you started much quicker and give you time to think through your actions. Then you won't be running in circles without seemingly accomplishing anything.
The next block in the series covers some relaxation techniques. I will post block 6 on Friday October 2, 2009. If you need feedback while you are working through your needs and analyzing them please contact me at: email@example.com

Your name
The mission was to report on Sberbank's performance (excellent, by the way), while overcoming the deep-rooted scepticism of the viewer.
Our solution was an infographics-based video. There were two ingredients in its success (in addition to a dozen rather important factors) — the facts in which the shareholders were most interested (with no idle talk) and the dramatic structure.
Doubter is an important character in the film, one who is extra cautious when it comes to buzzwords. He acts on behalf of the viewer, which makes the film easier to watch. Those who are not Sberbank's shareholders will be intrigued as well, even though the film comprises six minutes of graphics and no narration! You doubt us, too? See for yourselves!

EPSB.ca » Schools » Space for Students » Rosslyn Area » Working Committee Meeting Notes
The District asked representatives of important stakeholder groups to participate on a working committee. This committee will provide feedback as we develop several options for a community-driven strategy for the Rosslyn area. The working committee includes:
The committees will meet between October 2016 and February 2017 to develop a plan. In spring 2017, the plan will be presented at a public meeting for feedback from the community.
In this final meeting of the Rosslyn area working committee, concepts were reviewed for any minor changes. The Committee planned the presentation and breakout sessions for the public meeting on March 22, 2017.
In December, the Rosslyn area committee asked the architect to develop five different concepts. These concepts were reviewed at the fifth committee meeting in February. The concept plans will be revised to reflect committee feedback and reviewed again at the end of February. Final concepts will be shared for public feedback in early March 2017.
The committee discussed the following questions:
The meeting included discussion around District programs and how they are distributed. We also took a look at how Kindergarten-Grade 9 schools benefit students in our District. The Rosslyn committee asked the architect to develop five different concepts. These plans will be reviewed by the committee in late January and again in mid-February. Final concepts will be shared with the public for feedback in March 2017.
Rosslyn Meeting Information Package
School Building Assessments
The committee reviewed data to get a better understanding of the students and the community the schools serve. Committee members looked at the data and identified trends or information relevant to our process, as well as other ideas not provided in the data. This information will be used in our next meeting, December 13, 2016, to form new concepts to share with the community in March 2017.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to complete the site evaluation/building considerations survey. The survey is now closed. This information will be used to form new concepts to share with the community in March 2017.
Committee members toured Major-General Grisebach School (a replacenment school built in 2012) and Balwin School (built in 1960 and fully modernized in 2006).
These tours showed committee members the possibilities available in a new construction project compared to the possibilities and/or limitations of modernizing an existing building. The committee will use this knowledge to develop potential concepts for the area.

RAMBLE: Wednesday 5-1 Norwich City
Some things only happen once in a blue moon.
Halley's comet passing, blue bins being emptied and 3pm Saturday games at Hillsborough.
After a lazy morning in bed watching Soccer AM the troops were roused.
The wife and daughter were off shopping and visiting the hairdressers leaving the boy and myself for a long afternoon of football nonsense.
The recent tepid displays must be having an effect on Tom, as for the second game running he said he didn't want to go. Tough!
Yes he's only eight, last season was his first proper full season following The Owls, and he followed them all the way to Wembley.
Not every season will be like that.
I had my first season ticket at the same age on the old wooden seats of the uncovered Lower South Stand.
The Wilkinson-led Owls were in their first season back in the top flight donning a flashy new Umbro kit.
I used to wear my full replica kit to every game… just in case.
Every home game was a Saturday 3pm kick off and it'd home straight after for home-made cheese flan and chips with Rolf Harris on the telly.
In the 30 odd years since then I've witnessed some unbelievable highs and more believable lows.
There were times I'd not felt like going too, but you take the rough with the smooth. So get your coat, son.
Pep talk over he got dressed into his full kit – shin pads and under armour included – Adidas Messi boots and match day tracksuit… just in case Carlos runs out of subs and needs someone from the crowd (every boy's dream it seems).
I always enjoy playing against Norwich at Hillsborough, always seem to be decent games full of incident.
We also do well against them, the last time we lost at home to them was a 5-0 spanking in 2001.
I reminded the wife on the way down that I took her to the Norwich game the day after we got married, the hopeless romantic that I am.
We won 3-2, last game of the season, and a ridiculous own goal by Etuhu in front of the kop.
"Hmmm," she remembers fondly, "some girls get whisked off to the Bahamas, not me though."
She dropped me and the boy, and Richard who was also in tow, at the pub and tootled off down to Hillsborough centre.
It was quiet in the pub today. Usually it's 3 or 4 deep at the bar and standing room only, but no problems today.
A pint of American Pale and a famous Jump pork pie with a dollop of Coleman's.
Ooops, hope that doesn't prove bad luck.
I must have been in a nostalgic mood as pub talk centred around childhood games such as Wembley and three-and-in.
We checked with Tom that the games still existed and were relieved to learn they do… with a few minor rule changes.
These things happen, the offside rule has changed five times in my life time.
We reminisced about how everyone seems to have a short period of enjoying being the goalie because you overcome the fear of throwing yourself on the floor, and that in amateur football it's to that position that you ultimately return after a heyday of being the star striker, then moving out to the wing, then to centre mid, then left back before putting the gloves on because you don't have the legs for it any more.
Team news buzzed through.
Abdi and Reach out, Bannan and Winnall in.
Had I missed something? I must have because Abdi wasn't even in the squad.
Presumably injured as I think his recent performances had been okay.
Yes he's been tidy on the ball and makes space well, but he lacks the thrust that Bannan and Lee (who we are missing immensely in my opinion) bring to the side.
We looked at the balance of the side.
Playing Forestieri on the left and Wallace on the right meant two inside forwards, both cutting in and running at the defence, threading through balls or having a shot.
We mused that maybe Norwich had a couple of big centre backs and we weren't going to win the aerial battle today.
Fox still in the side too. I'm really not sure about him as I think I touched on in my last ramble. Still, let's see how he goes with yet another player in front of him.
Carlos' pre match rallying call was "it'll be reyt", once again meeting the doubters head on and remaining unmoved in his tactics, ethos and game plan.
However the recent criticism must have touched a nerve throughout the squad because Wednesday started brightly, pressing high up the pitch and forcing the play.
This is how the first goal game about, Hutchinson chasing his own charge down; a hopeless cause as the ball was rolling out of play towards the corner flag and Ruddy with plenty of time to clear up the wing.
You wonder whether this would have happened a couple of weeks ago, or whether Hutch would do the sensible thing and resume his anchor man position in readiness for defending the clearance.
But today he did, and it's a good job.
The pressure didn't allow Ruddy to get enough on his kick, and narrowed the angle so the only place he could put it was up the line where it dropped to Wallace.
Everyone knew what was coming.
A touch out of his feet, on to his left and from fully 45 yards found the back of the net through the malaise of scrambling Canaries.
The Wednesday of two weeks ago would have probably slowed the pace there, remain organised and stifle the opposition as they search for a reply.
Not today though.
The relentless Forestieri powered down the wing with purpose before cutting on to his favoured foot and finding Rhodes with a pin point cross.
The poacher had found himself in good space, unmarked, and such was the quality of the delivery he didn't have to move or jump, just angle his header into the bottom right corner. Two – nil.
Norwich rallied and got one back from a well-rehearsed set piece that we struggled to deal with, the short kick taking us by surprise before a ricocheted shot looped over Westwood and found Jerome waiting to nod home at the far post.
Not what we needed just before half time. However, the two goal cushion was restored a few minutes later as Fox netted his first for the club, a neat diving header from a Forestieri corner in front of the Kop.
HALF TIME: Wednesday 3-1 Norwich
A strange feeling at half time.
We were happy, confident and felt entertained.
There were no moans or grumbles (other than the speed of service at the bar) and even started getting carried away with ourselves "we'll get another couple yet," I confidently predicted.
And indeed we did.
The second half began with the same purpose that had been evident in the first half, and soon Rhodes had his second headed goal of the day, this time Bannan dinking a beautifully inviting little clip over the top of the defence for Jordan to power past the forlorn keeper.
The Norwich fans remained in full voice though with chants of "We want Neil out" and "Don't get excited, we're s*** every week" interspersed with "4-1, and you still don't sing".
We soon put an end to that.
A free kick from a central position about 25 yards out was won and Forestieri and Wallace mused over what to do.
Fessi actually picked up the ball and moved it a little further away from goal by a few yards, obviously acutely aware of his range and ability (or lack of) to get the ball over the wall and back down again from so close.
What followed was a sublime curling bullet of a free kick over the wall and into the top corner. "We're on our way! We're on our way!"
Then Carlos played his trump card.
The one player at his disposal capable of getting the crowd singing for the remainder of the match without doing anything special.
Enter Semedo. If I was a Norwich fan I'd be bemused as to why a sub with not much game time over the last couple of seasons would get so much adulation, but we know the full story.
Each of his seven or so touches of the ball were greeted with a rousing applause.
Wednesday were playing the clock down now after an energy sapping performance.
FULL TIME: Wednesday 5-1 Norwich City
A game where every player came out of it with a solid 8 out of 10… except Westwood who only had one shot to same all game and let it in…bloody useless.
Joking aside, it was very pleasing to see a side that had seemed so disjointed, bereft of confidence and lacking any spark only a week ago put in a performance like this today.
Norwich now must feel they are out of it, which basically means Fulham are the only team challenging the current top six and with a game in hand on us, we'll need this performance to be the start of another run to secure our playoff spot.
And if we perform like this in the playoffs, then our freshly renewed season tickets may well be tickets to watch Premier League football next year.
Meeting back up with the family, and Richard, in Sainsbury's after the match, we decided on another pint so it was off to the Norfolk Arms.
We've not really done this much this season, more often than not just going straight home and cracking on with tea whilst listening to praise and grumble, quietly content with another uninspiring win to keep us in the playoff hunt.
There was a celebratory mood today though.
One that needed to continue as we enthusiastically talked about the tenacity of Fernando, the brilliance of Bannan, the instinct of Rhodes, the fire in Hutchinson's eyes all coming together to produce a display worth toasting and chatting about.
Yes Carlos… It certainly did turn out all reyt.

In 2005, an innovative eye tracking study found that the majority of visibility during a search query happened in a triangle at the top of the Google.com search result page.
Search experts called this area of concentrated interest the "golden triangle," since 100 percent of those searching Google looked at it.
This "golden triangle" is similar to the amount of space a retail store allocates to a product which is known as "shelf space." Shelf space is a scarce resource for a retailer and one of the most important aspects that are used to improve financial performance. Hence, retailers provide profitable items prominent placement and visibility in their store's "shelf space."
Just as visibility is important inside a retail store, the 2005 eye tracking study also revealed the importance of visibility online during a consumer's search. The study exposed that visibility and click-through behavior changed dramatically for items "below the fold," when the user had to scroll down the monitor.
A brand capable of having paid ads on top, and their website as the top organic (free) result, followed by pages from their partners and distributors, would dominate this new "digital shelf space" and push competitors to the bottom of the shelf.
The digital shelf space strategy changed in May of 2007 when Google released their "Universal Search" results with news, videos and even images competing for the top results. Brands had more assets to optimize and more competitors, including results from Wikipedia. We found that social channels could send signals that Google could find, allowing optimization of social assets and the ability to rank on a new "social shelf space." For this reason, in June of 2009 we created SocialShelfspace.com to track this evolution.
With the "Google Instant" update in September of 2010, the search results page changed with every letter the user entered in the search box. Google was able to make predictions and provide instant results before the user was done entering their search query. Brands that could optimize for this prediction were able to intercept the search intent and gather new traffic.
Let us fast forward to 2012, with the abundance of content including 3,000 photo uploads to Flickr and 100,000 new tweets every 60 seconds! Also added during this one minute, were 30 hours of video to YouTube.
Google makes over 500 enhancements to their algorithms each year and continues to look for ways to improve their results to keep up with over two million search queries every minute. On January of 2012, Google's "Search Plus Your World" enhancement provided personalized results with content that has been shared with you privately as well as results from the public Web, including social media sites. Even if you are not logged in to your Google+ account, the search result page will have content from people and business pages on Google+.
Brands need to identify internal advocates with the proper social media channels to participate in the new personalized results pages. Brands also need to understand that influencers play an important role in the social shelf space and can drive traffic to your products or to your competitors' products. Finally, a clear understanding of how potential customers search for your products and services will help brands optimize for the mobile/iPad search intent vs. those that are searching from computers since the results and optimization techniques are different!
First things first. Before you worry about your "Pinterest strategy" or how to leverage the 50 million users on "Draw Something," the biggest mistake you could make is to break what is currently working on your social shelf space. Start with an audit of your site and social accounts. Are the search engines finding your Web pages and social content? What keywords are driving traffic to your site? Who is updating your social accounts? Is a different office, team member, or affiliate competing with your corporate message and sending traffic to old offers?
Once you understand what is working and the areas that need improvement, you are ready for social search engine optimization. Participate in the different communities, and check what assets the search engines are finding before you engage with an agency that recommends a new Web site or to replace your current content management system or adding the latest "app strategy." Continue to create the assets that the community is using, then listen, engage and repeat. You will identify advocates and competitors. If you concentrate on quality content and remove barriers for the engines to find you -- like content protected behind passwords or fancy animations -- the social shelf space will take care of itself.

The partners behind Gecko's Grill & Pubs are bringing back an old fashioned diner that was once a well-known gem in Southwest Florida.
S'Macks Burgers & Shakes will open under Gecko's Hospitality Group ownership at the corner of Bee Ridge Road and Shade Avenue this summer. The site of the new restaurant will offer classic menu items like frozen custard shakes, burgers, hand cut fries, S'macks hot dogs, and more.
The restaurant will mimic a classic local diner that was originally known as Smack. The original establishment opened as a drive-in diner at the intersection of Main Street and Pine Place in 1934. The restaurant moved to Main Street and Osprey Avenue in 1937, which is now the Suntrust Bank building. It closed in the late 1950s.
"If you've ever seen the movie 'American Graffiti,' it looked just like that," said Sarasota historian, Jeff LaHurd. "It was a place that anyone who lived here during that time would remember fondly."
LaHurd said the restaurant was a hotspot for locals and tourists alike, and was known for having "beautiful girls who took customer orders curbside." It was also a popular hangout for teens, and often a site of rivalry between Manatee High School and Sarasota High School students, he added.
S'macks is expected to open in July and will offer indoor and outdoor seating.

Jack has been studying for GMAT since long. And during this period he missed quite a few opportunities to take this test.
Most of the time, what he missing was right approach, strategy to prepare for the GMAT and some good advice.
When Jack was completing his degree, it was ideally the best time for him to take the test. Honestly, it gets more difficult once you get a full time job. Jack had his classmates to take the test. It would have been definitely easier for him to take the test then.
But he missed the boat.
After finishing his education Jack had some free time that could have used wisely for GMAT preparation. He in fact did utilized that time but not so wisely. Too many cooks spoil the soup.
Yes! Same thing happened with Jack this time.
Unfortunately he couldnt resist to apply for jobs simultaneously. Jack failed to realize the case if he gets a call from a prosperous company on the verge of taking the GMAT. Exactly same thing happened and Jack faced this dilemma. He had to drop the idea, one more time. But he wouldn't have gotten success in GMAT because the wrong approach he followed.
He had all free time available for preparation, Jack bought all material available on earth also he joined tuition/classes. Well in most of the cases it is recommended but Jack went to extreme and end up confusing himself for the right strategy that would work for him.
Yes! too many cooks spoil the soup. Oh! I forgot to mention about the forums and blog he used to indulge in!!
After resuming to his job, Jack hardly finds time for anything extra work like studying for GMAT. Though Jack turned wiser than before, he has time constrains, mental stress and job responsibilities. He's struggling to manage work-life balance forget about extra efforts for GMAT study.
He needed the force to go for GMAT study. He made up by his own… He could have done much better if he had joined some classes this time.
Above all things of Jacks story went wrong Jack could have done better. To know the right approach read on.

Quick Tips for Authors- Guide to Using a Pen Name
By Roxanne Rhoads
Many, many professional writers use pen names. Kim Harrison and Nora Roberts are two NYT Bestselling Authors that instantly come to mind.
For years I wrote under both my real name and a pen name. At times it was really confusing, especially in the beginning when I had no idea when I should use both names and when I should just use my pen name.
Throughout the years of operating Fang-tastic Books, a book review and promotion site for paranormal authors, I found that many new writers are just as confused as I was in the beginning.
One time an author, who is man but writes as a woman, sent me all his promo info for his book under his pen name and his bio under his real name. His email and web sites were also under his real name. So I assumed that he had no problem with both names being used to promote his book (since he didn't specify otherwise). As a reviewer and promoter I publish what authors send me, I don't change their words except for misspellings.
Well, the author contacted me a few days later very upset because I used his real name and the pen name. I explained to him the problem and suggested a few ways to stop any confusion in the future.
The things I suggested to him are ways to keep writing names separate while making your professional life much easier.
First of all, set up an email account in your pen name. Many email servers like gmail offer this for free. Use this email account for all writing transactions and submissions under your pen name.
Create a signature line for your email. For a long time I wondered after I sent an email if I accidentally signed the wrong name. Now I use signatures with my email accounts that include my name, email address, and web addresses so I never have to worry about signing the wrong name.
Create a bio for your pen name. This bio should not include any writing credits, jobs, degrees or memberships that are under any other name. When someone tries to verify the info in your bio and can't find anything under your pen name you'll look like a liar. So keep your names and bios separate unless you have no problem with both names being linked or being public knowledge. Some authors use different pen names for different genres, not because they are "hiding" or trying to keep their real name from the public eye. In that case you can include something like this at the end of your bio: "Suzanne Case also writes as Susannah Monroe".
Set up separate social media accounts for your pen name. That way all your promotion can be done through those networking sites under that name alone. This is extremely helpful when you want to remain anonymous plus it helps build your author brand.
Set up a blog using only your pen name. This is extremely easy to do, especially with Blogger, WordPress or Weebly and it will help with promotion as you can publish all your book covers and publishing information on the blog, entertain readers and draw people in. Try to get the URL with your pen name in it, such as www.JadeDesire.Blogspot.com or grab a custom domain name from GoDaddy.com and point your blog to the domain www.JadeDesire.com.
The last and most important thing to remember when using a pen name…don't ever give anyone your real name unless absolutely necessary. Book reviewers, bloggers, book promoters- none of these people have any reason to know your real name. Publishers and agents are the only ones that ever need to know your real name and sometimes there are ways around that as well.
In some localities you can file a DBA (doing business as) under your pen name. This is the same as filing for a business name. Some cities/counties/states won't allow you to file a DBA under a person's name while others do. If you can, this will allow you to legally use that name for all transactions. You can even open a bank account using your business/pen name. To get around the use of a social security number you can file for a taxpayer id number.
The only drawback to going this route is that it leaves a paper trail that anyone can have access to if they know where to look but you won't have to give your real name to publishers, editors or agents.
Decide which route works best for you then stick to your guns and keep your names as far away from each other as possible.

Grilled Swordfish with Balsamic Brown Butter
This weekend we picked up some swordfish steaks at the seafood market. And since I can't seem to get enough of my grill pan these days, I decided to make grilled swordfish with balsamic brown butter sauce. I was inspired by this recipe on epicurious. I scaled it down to 4 servings, so my husband could have 2 servings for dinner and I could bring the extra for lunch tomorrow. I served the swordfish with a garlic and corn couscous, which I'll follow up with the recipe another day. We also felt very adventurous when we ventured from red wine to white tonight. I think this is the first bottle of white we've ever had with dinner, it was Cielo Pinot Grigio. Pinot Grigio seems to be the only white wine we can get into, and this is an inexpensive bottle that was crisp and fresh, perfect for the hot weather we had today. Keep reading for the recipe with my adaptions.
1/3 stick unsalted butter
2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 Tablespoon honey
1 Tablespoon dijon mustard
2 Tablespoons capers, drained
1 tomato, chopped
Heat grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush both sides of salmon steaks with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Once grill pan is heated to medium high place salmon steaks on grill and cook about 3 to 4 minutes on each side (they are cooked through when center is opaque).
Meanwhile cook butter over medium high heat in sauce pan. Cook until it bubbles and starts to turn brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool down for a bit. Then whisk in balsamic vinegar, honey, and mustard until combined. Please note to be careful when adding vinegar to the butter, if it is too hot it can splatter up and burn you. Once whisked together drizzle over swordfish steaks (I had enough sauce left over to drizzle on the couscous I made and it was delicious). Top swordfish steaks with chopped tomatoes and capers, and enjoy!
My happy customer (and unmade bed in the background, feel free to judge me).
