Finding A Lost FitBit
One day last week I wasn't feeling very well (turned out I had the flu) so when I got home I went to be to rest. A few hours later I got up to change out of my clothes and noticed that my FitBit One was missing. I immediately looked in the area of my bed and couldn't find it. I continued to look in all points of the house I had passed between the front door and my bedroom and still couldn't find it. I opted not to go out and retrace my steps as it was already late and I really wasn't feeling well (did I mention I had the flu?).
Late the next day, after trying to rest as much as possible (because, like, I had the flu), I set out to find my FitBit One. I didn't go out and retrace my footsteps because I really thought I had it when I got home the previous day. I opened the FitBit mobile app on phone and saw that it was connecting to the One so I knew it had to be in the house. I moved around the house a bit and re-synced the app with every move so I could see if I was still close to it. If the app detected it then I was within 30 feet of it (the distance limit of it's Bluetooth signal). After doing this a while I narrowed the search back to the bedroom where a very thorough search turned up the One wrapped in the shirt I had been wearing the day before.
Though the description above makes it sound simple the search actually took a while. And while FitBit's own help pages states "Many users find that their trackers wind up in the dirty clothes pile…" it still too me some time to get there.
When I first discovered it was missing I had tweeted how it would be nice if there was some kind of Find My FitBit app similar to Apple's Find My iPhone app. What I discovered after I had found it (but wish I saw it before) was that someone had replied with a link to just such an app. FitBit Finder detects the signal of any nearby FitBits and displays it's signal strength on a graph. Instead of knowing if you're within 30 feet using this app will tell you roughly how close you are within the 30 foot radius. I wish I had found this app before.

Deleting A Track From the iOS Music App That Won't Delete
I had an odd problem with my iPhone recently when I had a music track on it that I don't remember putting there and I could not delete it. The track was one that I had purchased on iTunes for my daughter a long time ago and I had no interest in having it.
After some research and trial and error I found the following solution worked for me:
- On the phone go to Settings->Music.
- Turn on 'Show All Music'.
- Go to the Music App. You will now see a number of songs that have the iCloud icon next to them. These are tracks that you have previously purchased on iTunes that are not currently on the phone.
- Find the track that you couldn't delete and touch the iCloud icon to download it to the phone.
- After the download completes swipe it to the left and the delete option will appear.
- Now go back to Settings->Music and Turn off 'Show All Music'.
Though I only tried this on an iPhone (iOS 7.0.4) but I'd assume the steps above will work for any iOS device. Let me know if you've tried this on any other device and what your result is.

Windows 7 Lock Screen Annoyance and Fix
I'm in the habit of locking my machine when I walk away from my desk. When I come back I just type in my password, hit enter and I'm back. But with the Windows 7 machine I've been using the last year or so I've had a recurring problem. The lock screen requires me to click an icon before the password field appears. A small action but annoying nonetheless. Even more annoying is that every time an update is pushed to my machine the fix I apply is wiped out and the problem comes back.
Every time this happens I find myself searching the web looking for the solution again. Not this time. I'm documenting it here.
- Open Regedit.
- Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWinlogon
- Change the dword setting "DisableCAD" to a 1. If "DisableCAD" doesn't exist the create it and set it to 1.
- Reboot.

Lessons Learned
As a parent I've had many situations where I've learned/taught lessons from/to my kids. Here are a few that I've found to be very valuable.
- All you can do is the best you can do.
Different people have different skill levels at different skills as well as different levels of knowledge in different areas. That's a whole lot of different. We need to adjust our expectations of ourselves according to our own skill and knowledge levels but not so much that it inhibits our ability to continue improving ourselves in all areas. My daughter is probably tired of me saying this to her: "All you can do is the best you can do."
- Always try to do your best. The second part of accepting that all you can do is the best you can do is always trying your best. Don't settle for anything less than your best.
- Always aim to do a little bit better than the last time. Any time we do something is a learning experience. Whether it is something we do every day like brushing our teeth or something we do rarely like changing the oil on a snow blower we are always figuring out ways to do things better for ourselves.
In the conversations I've had with my kids this lesson has been mostly applied to school work. Every time you get an assignment in a particular subject aim to get a slightly higher grade than the last assignment in that subject. Got an 85 on your last history test? Use that as a goal for the next history test and try to beat it!
- You may not get it right the first time. There is nothing embarrassing about not knowing something when you're trying to learn. However, not knowing something you should already know may be embarrasing. Knowledge may not stick the first time you learn something so ask the right questions and try to get it right the next time.
This doesn't just apply to school work. It could apply to just about anything. Learning to ride a bike. Putting together a piece of furniture. Programming an app.
- If you tell me a bad truth I may be upset with you but not as upset as when you tell me a good lie. As we all know by watching politicians when you lie about something you have a better chance at making it worse than if you come clean in the first place. When you do something that is 'wrong' (a very vague term) I'll be upset. But when I catch you lying to me about it I'll be even more upset because that shows me that you don't trust me. Be honest from the outset and it will not only show me that you trust me but that I can trust you too.

NBA Standings Plugin For WordPress
A couple of years ago I released a plugin to show the standings of a Major League Baseball (MLB) division on one of my other blogs. In the time since then I've done a few one off versions of that plugin to help people use it in specific ways.
Recently I was asked if I could do a version of the plugin to display National Basketball Association (NBA) standings. Since I get my data from the XMLSTATS API, which also provides NBA data, I was more than happy to oblige. The result is the NBA Standings plugin.
NBA Standings functions the same as it's MLB counterpart but since the data format is slightly different it took me a little time to work out how to properly parse the feed. Either way it's here and it works. Enjoy.

Mesa Air Group signed a deal in late September with Goodrich for landing-gear maintenance services on its fleet of Bombardier CRJ700s and CRJ900s. The multi-year agreement covers all scheduled repair and overhaul services, including the use of Goodrich-owned rotable landing-gear assets.
Mesa Air Group
St. George, Utah-based SkyWest Airlines signed a letter of intent last month to fly 14 Bombardier CRJ200s as US Airways Express under a capacity purchase agreement. The three-year deal would call for the SkyWest jets to replace CRJ200s and Bombardier Dash 8 turboprops now supplied by Mesa Air Group out of Phoenix starting in the middle of next year.
US Airways announced last month it would add first-class seating and service on 110 US Airways Express regional jets operated by Republic Airways, Mesa Air Group and PSA. Plans call for the airline to install first-class seating on Embraer E170s and E175s, along with Bombardier CRJ700s and CRJ900s, beginning in October with the E175 fleet. It expects to finish outfitting the three remaining types by the end of January.
Certainly the news that there were no U.S. airline passenger fatalities in 2010 is cause for reflection and, yes, some self-congratulation by all those who made it possible. From airline and manufacturers' boardrooms to the 10th floor of 800 Independence Avenue, congratulations are in order.
Phoenix-based Mesa Air Group expected to emerge from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in February, after the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York in late January approved its reorganization plan.
Canada's Flying Colours is talking to potential partners outside North America to support operators for which it has completed Bombardier Challengers. About 90 percent of its clients to date have been on other continents and it has already had preliminary discussions with prospective joint venture partners.
Vietnam's Air Mekong, 30 percent owned by U.S. regional airline SkyWest, on October 9 launched domestic services with four 86-seat Bombardier CRJ900s subleased from the St. George, Utah-based regional.
Executive Flight Services, a subsidiary of Kansas City, Mo.-based Executive AirShare, established a maintenance base at Midwest National Air Center in Kearney, Mo. The company will continue to operate maintenance facilities at Wichita Mid-Continent Airport and at Fort Worth Meacham International Airport.
An Embraer E190 operated by China's Henan Airlines overshot the runway at Yichun City's Lindu Airport in the northeastern province of Heilongjiang, killing 43 of the airplane's 96 occupants, according to Chinese state-run media. The crash happened at 9:36 p.m. Tuesday after an otherwise uneventful 45-minute flight from Heilongjiang's capital, Harbin, Xinhua news agency reported.
Hawker Beechcraft Services (HBS) has expanded its aircraft maintenance facility at Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport in Mesa, Ariz. The recently completed $14 million project added a second 26,000-sq-ft hangar which includes 22,000 sq ft of back shops, administrative offices and a customer lobby. The enhanced customer space offers guest offices for customers to use while their aircraft are being serviced.

Recent Marigot Bay Reviews
The Great House is really great!
We wanted take our whole family on a memorable vacation and came across Oasis Marigot's web site. We originally had a different villa picked out and Sylvie told me that the Great House would be better since we had a 1 year old and a 2 year old coming with us. We could close off the gates to the pool and stairs so the children would be safe. The Great House is perfect for the whole family. We had plenty of room. The view of Marigot Bay is incredible from the house. It's so quiet and peaceful up there on the hill. The marina and beach are just a short walk down the hill. The house had everything we needed. We can't wait to come back to St. Lucia!
Comfort and Simplicity in
The Oasis Marigot Vacation Club Villas are located in an incredibly beautiful setting located away from the hustle of village life just as described in the listing, only better! The layout of Oasis Marigot and the landscaping lend themselves to create a breath taking view upon arrival at the dock. The entire property is very well maintained and very clean, making for a very pleasant tour of the grounds. We found our Oasis Marigot Vacation Club Villa very well appointed with comfortable furniture, a well equipped kitchen, and nice linens. Both the bottom and second floor veranda offered exquisite views of the grounds and Marigot Bay. The Staff at Oasis is fantastic - all personnel are exceptionally courteous and accommodating. Interactions with the Oasis Marigot Staff started prior to arrival during our booking process with very responsive and professional communications. Once at Oasis Marigot, we found Angela was particularly helpful and full of sound advice for traveling throughout St. Lucia. Oasis Marigot offers a varierty of activities and can readily assist with the bookings of these various activities. We enjoyed the kayaking and the many restaurants located in Marigot Bay.
Spectacular Emerald Hill Villa
What a wonderful place to stay! It has been on my husband's bucket list to visit St. Lucia, so for his 60th birthday this is where we stayed. We had an amazing time just sitting and watching the sail boats come in and out of the harbor. And the fantastic views and the open air concept of the house was just paradise. The owner of the house is a wonderful person and was there to greet us when we arrived, this made us feel very safe and welcome. The staff at Oasis Marigot was super to work with from helping us arrange our rental car, grocery shopping and answering any questions we had a long the way. When we return we will stay at Emerald Hill villa and use the wonderful services of Oasis Marigot. Thank you for a perfect vacation!!

New space expected to be completed by late 2015
Sudbury's medical research scientists will have a little more breathing room thanks to a provincial investment of nearly $5 million to convert the former St. Theresa's School on Walford Road into a new space to expand the Advanced Medical Research Institute of Canada (AMRIC).
Dr. Amadeo Parissenti, a principal investigator and scientist with AMRIC, said there is no more room to expand beyond the 12,000 square feet of research space AMRIC occupies at Health Sciences North.
Parissenti's research has focused on a test to detect the effectiveness of chemotherapy for breast cancer patients.
If doctors know chemotherapy is not likely to be effective for a patient, they can avoid its negative side effects early on and focus their efforts on alternative treatments such as surgery or radiation therapy.
The research project has spun off into a company called Rna Diagnostics that will conduct and perfect its RNA Disruption Assay tests out of Sudbury. To improve the tests, researchers want to implement robotics, but will need more space to do so.
With the Northern Ontario Development Corporation's investment of nearly $5 million, AMRIC will have an additional 14,000 square feet of research space at its disposal just down the road from the hospital.
Sudbury MPP Rick Bartolucci, who made the funding announcement Friday, said the research that will come out of AMRIC's new facility will be a "game changer" for Sudbury and all of northeastern Ontario.
Bartolucci said his sister is battling breast cancer for the fourth time, and research projects like Parissenti's could have a positive impact on her life, and on cancer patients around the world.
Dr. Francisco Diaz-Mitoma, AMRIC's CEO and scientific director, said the new facility, expected to be completed in late 2015, will allow him to hire two more senior researchers. With their respective research teams, he said it will result in about 18 new medical research jobs.
Diaz-Mitoma said he expects the staff at the new research facility to eventually expand to 38 positions.
The City of Greater Sudbury has already invested $1.75 million to support the AMRIC expansion, and Diaz-Mitoma said he hopes to receive additional funding from FedNor, which he said would be necessary to complete the project.
His ultimate ambition is for a brand new $60-million facility that would expand AMRIC's total research space to 75,000 square feet.
AMRIC estimates a new facility would allow it to employ 160 people, create a number of spinoff jobs and add $42- to $48 million in economic activity for Sudbury.

Shootfighter Tekken is a short anime OVA prequel of a manga called High School Exciting Story: Tough, which probably deserves its own page (or integrated with this one).It follows the story of Kiichi "Kibou" (Kee-boh) Miyazawa, a young punk who is the only son of Nadashinkage Style's remaining few masters, Oton Miyazawa. Nadashinkage Style is a murderous martial art, borne near the end of Meiji-era Japan, and utilizes strikes to vital points and pressure points on the human body to cripple (or outright kill) opponents.Neither Oton or Kiichi really have any desire to use this martial art to kill. Or really to do anything more than become stronger with it, really. But an old rival, Iron Kiba, is still simmering over his loss with Oton—he demands a rematch with Oton and threatens to expose Nadashinkage Style to the world if he doesn't get it. He sends flunkies one by one to harass them, and...well. It goes kinda downhill from there.

Select Route:
As you enter Clear Creek Canyon, just before Tunnel 1, several ice flows appear extending from an aqueduct on the south side of the road on the opposite side of Clear Creek. Due to the low elevation and dependence upon the state of repair of the aqueduct, these flows do not form regularly. When they do, they provide some excellent local ice climbing. There are at least three other very short smears with ice-bouldering potential farter down the trail behind Tunnel 1. The details of these are not listed here. Some of these climbs start directly from Clear Creek. Climb these when the creek is well-frozen otherwise lower/rap from the top.
Getting There
About 1 mile from the intersection of CO Hwy 93 and US 6, up the Clear Creek Canyon several ice climbs are visible originating from a wooden Aqueduct on the south (left) side of the road. Park in front of Tunnel 1 and hike down a small, signed hiking trail that follows the old roadbed. Cross on the frozen creek to the climbs.

'Rihanna is the new Diana': Provocative claim by feminist writer Camille Paglia
- Camille Paglia said the late Diana and the 24 year old Bajan superstar used every photo opportunity to convey 'allure, defiance or revenge
- American author and lecturer compared the pair's turbulent romantic life
- She then targets their respective partners - Prince Charles and Chris Brown
A leading feminist writer has claimed that Rihanna is the new Princess Diana in a highly controversial article which argues the pair share a 'ravishingly seductive flirtation' with the press.
Camille Paglia, an American author and lecturer, said the late Diana and the 24-year-old Bajan superstar were both adept at using every photo opportunity to convey 'allure, defiance or revenge.'
She argues that the messages are drawn from the pair's turbulent romantic life, then targets their respective partners Prince Charles and Chris Brown.
A leading feminist writer has claimed that Rihanna is the new Princess Diana in a highly controversial article which argues the pair share a 'ravishingly seductive flirtation' with the press
Writing in The Sunday Times magazine, Paglia added that both women were victims of a 'festering romantic triangle and had transformed themselves from ' sensitive, wounded, but appealingly bubbly and good-natured provincial girls' into living sculptures for the lens.
She said: 'Not since Diana rocketed from a shy, plump kindergarten aide to a lean, mean fashion machine has there been such a ravishingly seductive flirtation with the world press.'
Ms Paglia, who has in past essays accused Taylor Swift and Katy Perry of killing feminism with their 'insipid, bleached-out personas', compared an iconic 'stage-managed' image of a lonely Diana at the Taj Mahal after the breakdown of her marriage with a shot of Rihanna on her balcony in Barbados, in turmoil over her relationship with Chris Brown.
She argues that the messages are drawn from the pair¿s turbulent romantic life, the targets their respective partners Prince Charles and Chris Brown (pictured here with Rihanna at the Grammy awards)
Camille Paglia, an American author and lecturer, said the late Diana and the 24 year old Bajan superstar were both adept at using every photo opportunity to convey 'allure, defiance or revenge'
She also drew parallels with the childhoods of the two women. Both emerged from broken homes.
Rihanna was raised in a bungalow in Barbados, and witnessed her father battle a crack cocaine addiction and abuse her mother.
Diana Frances Spencer, was born on July 1, 1961, at Park House near Sandringham, Norfolk - the youngest daughter of the then Viscount and Viscountess Althorp. Her parents divorced when she was six.
Ms Paglia said Rihanna's self-released shots - many of which were published to millions of fans on her Twitter feed - have a 'genuinely artistic atmospheric eroticism' the like of which has 'not been seen in decades.'
She used a shot of Rihanna completely naked from the waist down lolling in front of a fireplace smoking and drinking, and with a fur blanket slung over her head as an example of her 'impressive visual archive'.
Ms Paglia said some of Rihanna's more candid shots were reminiscent of the work of Kathy Keeton - a South African ballet dancer who once edited Viva and whose fashion editor was Anna Wintour.
She said the fireplace photos evoked European art films which featured enchantresses Jeanne Moreau and Delphine Seyrig.
Diana in front of the Taj Mahal, during a Royal tour of India in 1992. Ms Paglia has compared the 'stage managed' image of Diana looking lonely and wistful, with shot of Rihanna on her balcony in Barbados
Rihanna was pictured on her balcony in Barbados over Christmas while in turmoil over her relationship with Chris Brown
She said both women were the victims of a 'festering love triangle' - Rihanna, between her Brown and his one time girlfriend Karrueche Tran - and Diana with Prince Charles and Camilla, now his second wife
She concludes that while Diana, 'rebuffed' but eventually accepted her exile, Rihanna, in the 'classic syndrome of the battered woman, still pities and hopes to change and save her abuser.'
Rihanna reconciled with partner Chris Brown in 2012, while he was still on probation for attacking her in 2009.
In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Rihanna described Chris as the 'love of my life' and opened up about her complicated feelings for the man who was convicted of assaulting her at a pre Grammy's party.
She revealed she had forgiven him for the brutal attack and felt she was the only one who could help him.
Ms Paglia said Rihanna's self-released shots - many of which were published to millions of fans on her Twitter feed - have a 'genuinely artistic atmospheric eroticism' the like of which has 'not been seen in decades'
She admitted: 'I thought I hated Chris and I realised it was love that was tarnished.
'It looked like hate because it was ugly, it was angry, it was inflamed, it was tainted and I realised that what it was. I had to forgive him because I cared about him still. And the minute I let go of that, I started living again.'
Born Robyn Rihanna Fenty in Barbados, the young singer was given her big break in 2003 when she was introduced to music producer Evan Rogers, who was on holiday in Barbados at the time.
After hearing the youngster sing, the producer her to New York to record a demo.
Soon she was signed to the label of hip hop megastar Jay Z and shot to international stardom.
Lady Diana Spencer experienced a similarly rapid rise to fame - from one of her first tastes of press attention as she innocently posed aged 20 outside Young England Kindergarten in Pimlico, to the many photocalls - staged and otherwise - which followed in the next 17 years of her life.
Diana, who died in a car accident in a Paris underpass along with her lover Dodi Fayed, would be 51 years old had she survived the crash in 1997.
Ms Paglia declared Madonna the future of feminism 20 years ago.
She has since launched attacks on Katy Perry and Taylor Swift for killing feminism, and Lady Gaga for being 'stripped of genuine eroticism.'
Camille Paglia, is a self styled 'dissident feminist', outspoken on pop culture, and who has been described as a feminist bete noire.
The 65-year-old has been a professor at The University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA since 1984, but came to attention with the publication of her first book, 'Sexual Personae', in 1990, when she also began writing about popular culture and feminism in mainstream newspapers and magazines.
It is these articles which have propelled Paglia to the controversial figure she is today.
One scathing attack saw her conclude that Katy Perry and Taylor Swift, have 'insipid, bleached-out personas' that hark back to the man-pleasing, pre-feminist era.
In an article for The Hollywood Reporter, she wrote that as a result, many of today's young women fail to realize the role their sexuality plays in society and 'partying till you drop has gotten as harmless as a Rotary Club meeting'.
She said: 'Swift's meandering, snippy songs make 16-year-old Lesley Gore's 1963 hit It's My Party (And I'll Cry if I Want to) seem like a towering masterpiece of social commentary, psychological drama and shapely concision.
'Indeed, without her mannequin posturing at industry events, it's doubtful that Swift could have attained her high profile.'
She cuttingly described Perry as a 'manic cyborg cheerleader'.
Paglia previously slammed Lady Gaga, insisting her over-the-top sexuality is actually 'stripped of genuine eroticism'.
She said the star's willingness to dress in crazy outfits as an example of 'every public appearance... has been lavishly scripted in advance'.

That being said, Lenovo originally unveiled the IdeaTab A2107 back in August 2012 during IFA. Given we already touched on the price, lets dive right in with the cost.

A gymnast who grew up in North Texas is becoming an Internet sensation.
Lloimincia Hall is a junior at Louisiana State University. She's earned several perfect scores recently with her flawless hip-hop routine on the floor.
Hall graduated from Townview Magnet School in Dallas and trained at Texas Dreams in Coppell. Her parents still live in the area.
"It's really a good feeling, because,
like she said, she incorporates so many different things in it; so many
different ideas," said Lloimincia's mom,
Stephanie. "She has some gospel, then she has a little old school..."
Rev. Lloyd Hall, Lloimincia's dad, remembers where it all
"She pulls up and holds onto the crib
and flips over as if she's on the bars," he said. "So we're like, 'Wow.'"
Coaches at Texas Dreams aren't surprised Lloimincia's
video has gone viral.
"There was nothing
about that routine that I haven't seen Mince do...," said gymnastics coach
Chris Burdett. "That's always how that girl goes."
She will compete with her team in the NCAA championships later this month in Birmingham, Ala.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Thad Lewis threw for career-highs of 459 yards and five touchdowns in a dazzling one-man show to help Duke beat North Carolina State 49-28 on Saturday.
Lewis also ran for a score for the Blue Devils (3-3, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference), who snapped an 11-game losing streak to their instate rival and earned their first road league win in almost six years. Donovan Varner added 154 yards receiving while Conner Vernon had 10 catches and was one of five different players to catch a TD pass from Lewis.
He picked apart the Wolfpack's defense, helping Duke roll to 502 total yards and convert 13 of 19 third downs to dominate the game in front of a stunned home crowd for the Wolfpack (3-3, 0-2).
Lewis was sharp from the beginning, guiding the Blue Devils to touchdowns on their first three drives. And even though the Blue Devils had a few of those only-can-happen-to-Duke mistakes that helped the Wolfpack hang around, Lewis just wouldn't let the Blue Devils falter.
Duke earned its first ACC road win since beating North Carolina to close the 2003 regular season, ending a 20-game losing streak.
With the game tied at 28 midway through the third quarter, Lewis directed a 10-play drive that ended with his 8-yard scoring pass to Austin Kelly with 3:41 left. Then the Blue Devils caught a huge break when a Blue Devil punt bounced off blocker Justin Byers and Duke recovered at N.C. State's 11-yard line.
Three plays later, Lewis connected with Vernon for a 5-yard touchdown that pushed the lead to 42-28 with 11:02 left. And when the Blue Devils' defense — which hung in after a rough start against N.C. State quarterback Russell Wilson — stuffed Toney Baker on a fourth-and-1 with 6:05 left, the Blue Devils could feel that this game would be different from all those other league losses.
On the other sideline, things only got worse for the Wolfpack, which played the final 5 minutes or so in front of a virtually empty Carter-Finley Stadium.
The low point — aside from a miserable defensive performance — came when the Wolfpack botched another punt return in the final minutes in the same fashion, this time with the ball bouncing off the leg of blocker Owen Spencer and rolling into the end zone, where Duke recovered for another touchdown with 3:07 left.
Wilson ran and threw for a touchdown for N.C. State, which never led.
Baker ran for 73 yards and a score and T.J. Graham added a 93-yard kickoff return for a score for the Wolfpack.

I'll put us at 14th for offense and 10th for defense
which should be enough to atleast get us into the playoffs via the north title
Re: I'm a bit concerned.
I think our offense will rank very low in points scored but near the top of the league for time of possession. Very few turnovers while we pound the heck out of the defense. It is very different form what we became used to but it may prove to be as effective as long as the defense is as good as people at camp are making it sound. We have some playmakers on offense, so there will be flashes from the past, but mainly it will be about ball control.
Re: I'm a bit concerned.
The only thing that worries me about our offense is Brad Johnson, but he's a veteran, and has won a super bowl, I know he's old so he won't be a part of our offense for much longer, but I don't know.
I don't know what Im talking about right now.
I dont know, we'll be fine.
Re: I'm a bit concerned.
Here's how I see our offense working. Ball control, running up the gut, and short WCO passes IE slants and curls. As Mensa noted, this will keep our TOP up and let our D rest and be at its best all the while keeping the opposing defense on its heels. This is how teams succeed.

Re: I'm a bit concerned.
Yeah, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Our offense will be just fine. At least we aren't hearing that the offense is shredding the defense in practice...then I would be a little worried.MC's run away when I kick it
They act so chicken, they should come with a large drink and a biscuit
Re: I'm a bit concerned.
Imagine the Eagles from 2 years ago (minus TO). It will be the same style. Running plays, alot of screens to the RB's & playactions. Its going to be very time consuming & we will move the chains in chunks. Occasionally throwing the home run ball, but nothing like we saw in the past. Our offense has to be precise & all of the players have to be on the same page. I expect great things this year, as long as everyone stays healthy.
Another good thing is that our gameplan is relatively unknown to the other teams in the league. This is a different Vikings team & it will be interesting to see how other teams prepare for us. They will not be sure as to what we will throw at them.
My biggest concern is to see how Coach Childress adjusts to the flow of the game. Will he stick to the gameplan no matter what? Or will he constantly find new things to try.

NodakPaul...no offense intended....but I feel that with some obvious exceptions (ravens, bucs), I would say that a team with a dominant offense has had a better record in the big game than those with a dominant defense.
Lets look at the past few seasons and see what holds up. I know offense and defense rankings vary slightly from site to site, so here are the ones I used:
Pit - O rank: 14 D rank:7
Sea - O rank: 2 D rank:14
(Min - O rank: 25 D rank:21)
NE - O rank: 9 D rank:9
Phili - O rank: 8 D rank:10
(Min - O rank: 3 D rank:29)
NE - O rank: 15 D rank:7
Car - O rank: 14 D rank:11
(Min - O rank: 1 D rank:23)
TB - O rank: 24 D rank:1
Oak - O rank: 2 D rank:9
(Min - O rank: 1 D rank:26)
Average O ranking of SB winners: 15.5
Average D ranking of SB winners: 6
Average O ranking of SB losers: 6.5
Average D ranking of SB losers: 11
Min's average O ranking: 7.5 (lower because of last year)
Min's average D ranking: 24.75
As you can see, the team with the higher ranked defense won every year. I stand by my remark that offense sells tickets, whlie defense wins games. Even the big games... :wink: Minny had one of the NFL's most dominent offenses for most of the past decade, and it got us no where.

Re: I'm a bit concerned.
I hear ya triedandtruevikingsfan, I'm also concerned about the 2006 Minnesota Vikings.
If you look at the bottom right hand corner of PurplePride.org, you will see a poll named "Skol Poll". And the poll question is "What's your call? Season Record:
If you view the results, you will see that most people believe we will win 10-12 games this season. :shock:
That really suprises me because if we can't produce an effective running game, our offense will be horrible. Brad Johnson is a very efficient QB, a guy who won't put up big numbers, but also won't make a lot of mistakes. But in order for him to play like he did last season, he's going to need a strong running game. And if he dosen't get that, things are going to get ugly.
To refresh everyone's memory, our defense was the main reason we did so well at the end of the 05/06 season.
I'm expecting are defense to be MUCH better this season, but to be honest, I'll be suprised if we win more than 7-8 games.In the P.J.'s, my blend tape plays, bullets are strays

So every day I read the KFAN notes and get more and more excited. However, the last couple days I've been thinking...
They keep saying how dominant our D has been. Great news, but... I've been excited about it the last couple of years thinking "finally our D isn't going to be the laughing stock of the league" while I will admit that they have improved the last couple of years they have been far from dominant. Which leads me to my concern... is our offense that bad??
We've been spoiled in the past with a dominant offense, and while I really hope that we have a balanced team this year, I really am worried. I am by no means a bandwagon fan... I'll stick by our boys through thick and thin, but I just don't know what to feel about the upcoming season. I'm soooooooo excited for it to start, but really am conflicted on how I think we're going to do.
But we really can't tell a lot by camp reports.For example, there are always going to be more interceptions when the defense knows the offense is working on 3rd and long or 2 minute drills.
And the offense usually takes longer to jell.
But we should get a better idea with the preseason games.
At any rate, this is the time of year for optomism even if it's guarded.What takes a quarterback to the next level is not arm strength or mobility or any of that stuff. Its the ability to play on critical downs. Manage third downs, or red zones or four-minute or two-minute situations"

Nice one Pindz, I love this stuff. Speculating on how they did it is half the fun!
kingligger December 19, 2010 9:23:34 PM CET
Machined, 100% .Proof of either Alien intervention or an older civilization more advanced than we are today, that has left now. The fact that we never find a 17,000 year old Black & Decker drill bit makes me think, the former. Whoever did it, didn't leave anything behind. Not 1 thing, giving away how it was done. Can't imagine an alien race, who have conquered time & space, forgetting a laser stone cutter etc. Great video
Shibbydougy March 17, 2010 3:16:27 AM CET
(My Rant in response to Ghost32's rant)Interetsing you can extrapolate so much from so little... Unless you have discussed these issues at length with Pindz then I do not see how one could accuse so passionatly. Perhaps Pindz is not stating that he believes they were cut with lasers, but rather that the workmanship is of such caliber that it appears to have been done so. And if Pindz did believe so, what of it? The fact that they may have had this technology does the opposite of accusing our ancestors of being 'stupid'. As for the use of keywords to tag the video, it is not surprising in the least when considering that advanced ancient technology, though not one that I abide to, is a current and popular theory, albeit mostly just an entertaing thought more than a belief. Seeing that many people who like this theory are also interested in the theories related to the non-topical keywords used, I'd say it was a smart way of making sure those people got the see this video. You are correct in several of your arguements, yet your anger, if one could call it that, I find to be truely misguided. Currently living in an Age which is alien to that we lived in thousands of years ago, knowledge and aptitudes naturally decay and shift over time. One constant however has been our minds, thus is is not acceptable that we today try to imagine the forgetten answers to ancient secrets and knowledge, even if it is with a mind that's ever fantastical and creative?5 stars, not because 'they were cut with lasers', but because the site is fascinating and the engineering truely remarkable, lasers or no lasers. PS. Those who do fancy lasers should look for vids on the Temple of Osiris, which has designs (Flowers of Life) 'burnt' into the pillars...
Ralv77 November 30, 2009 10:02:21 AM CET
these structures are certainly not made of poured concrete or from molds. the stones are composed of Diorite.from wikiDiorite is an extremely hard rock, making it difficult to carve and work with. It is so hard that ancient civilizations (such as Ancient Egypt) used diorite balls to work granite. Its hardness, however, also allows it to be worked finely and take a high polish, and to provide a durable finished work. Thus, major works in diorite tend to be important.
Ghost32 November 13, 2009 1:09:23 PM CET
To think that these people were not smart enough to create molds or forms of concrete and to shape them is very silly. They had brains! Another stupid video post to waste your time folks, Pindz might be uneducated and think humans have been helpless but that is a big insult to the fact that he and everyone is still here, we are not monkies and we build amazing things everyday! Pindz lust for fame and money have totally blinded his common sense! It is disrespectful to the people that built these things to say they were stupid and not smart enough to build there own cities! Do you think we sat in the dirt forever waiting for ufos from distant places to come show us how to make a hut? After you do this for say thousands of years it becomes really simple to build! Society as a whole EVEN Pindz has been dumbed down, If you go to egypt right now and ask how the pyramids were created they cant tell you because they are not educated enough to know how there own people created structures thousands of years ago! Thats a Problem! It doesnt mean that Aliens in UFO's did it, just means people are ignorant , selfish and dont care to know, thus the knowledge has been lost except for a select few that have paid attention while we have been sleeping. Pindz do you not use your own head before you post this stuff, Dont you think about it at all! I think we can all be fooled by silly youtube videos sometimes but this is a daily problem with Pindz, Is all you have to do is put ufo in the title for him to rip it and try and make some clicks off of it! NO THEY DIDNT CUT THE ROCKS WITH LAZERS. And shame on everyone who rated this and encourages him!

Over the last few weeks, various audits were carried out on site to help guide proposed improvements to facilities to support trainees, staff and visiting members of the public. As a result of this work, a number of Health and Safety issues were identified around the Mill site and in the Tearoom and kitchen.
These concern were raised with the site owner, Aberdeenshire Council, which is responsible for maintaining the site (buildings and grounds). Aberdeenshire Council initially decided to temporarily suspend operations in the kitchen and Tearoom, and requested that we close the Tearoom and reallocate Trainees as best as possible to other activities on site.
Last week, following further discussions regarding the nature of the Health and Safety issues identified on site, Aberdeenshire Council decided, with the agreement of the Board of Trustees, to temporarily suspend all Trainee activities on site until a decision can be made by senior officials in Aberdeenshire Council as to how they will resolve the various concerns raised.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused and hope that we can obtain the support required from Aberdeenshire Council to resolve the various issues around the site and make the site safe for all and suitable to re-open to our Trainees and visitors alike.
Thank you.

Gr 3-6-Georgie lives in an unconventional household, but even her rather unusual family does not truly understand her intense belief that she can fly. Then a Canadian goose enters her life. His are the guiding wings that allow Georgie to fulfill her dream. However, where there are dreams there are always those who, lacking imagination, will seek to destroy them in the name of common sense. Georgie discovers this to her sorrow, yet learns that in opening the sky to her, her friend has truly given her the world. This gentle, exquisite story by Jane Langton (Harper, 1980) was a Newbery Honor book. It speaks of that tentative step from the innocence of childhood to the acceptance of growth and change. Performed by actress MaryBeth Hurt, the production is evocative and heart-warming. Hurt creates voices for each character and carries listeners along, on feathered wings, into Georgie's world and the greater one that lies beyond.-Teresa Bateman, Brigadoon Elementary School, Federal Way, WA

I distinctly remember sitting down to read this book at night, and not being able to put it down until the end.
