If you know me then you know I've been doing a lot of work with apps lately (SP2 – link, twitter). I started developing primarily with an on-premises virtual machine running SharePoint 2013, but I have recently switched to using SharePoint Online (Office 365) more.
- Free Office 365 Developer Site – The first benefit is that you can sign up for a free Office 365 Developer Site. This is a great way to get your feet wet with SharePoint 2013 without having to worry about installation and configuration. You can create a developer site collection and publish your apps here and get started very quickly. Especially if you use the "Napa" Office 365 Development Tools.
- Less setup – setting up SharePoint 2013 has a fair amount of complexity, but nothing that most of you can't handle. However, setting up apps is even harder as you have to set up a wildcard DNS entry to do it correctly. Office 365 takes care of all of this for you. Your subdomains are automatically provisioned for your apps, all you have to do is publish and you're good to go. If you plan on using provider hosted or auto-hosted apps, SharePoint Online is easier as well.
- You don't have to set up Workflow – Setting up workflow is hard. I messed it up on my last attempt on my SharePoint 2013 virtual machine and I haven't bothered to go back and fix it. When I needed to build an app that used workflow, I started publishing to SharePoint Online. It just works here and you don't have to worry about installing Workflow manager and all of the related items.
- Seller Dashboard team tests here – I discovered this when one of my apps was failed a while back and the issue only occurred on my SharePoint Online tenant. The nice thing about apps is that once everything is configured they work in both on-premises and in the cloud (depending on the type of course).
- You don't need SharePoint 2013 installed – You can develop SharePoint apps without having SharePoint 2013 installed. This means you can do the development directly from your host OS.
- Test Licensing App – If you are doing license validation (and you should), the Test Licensing App helps you test this much easier. It allows you to generate a test license for free, paid, and trial apps. I believe this app is self-hosted (or maybe auto-hosted) which means it is much easier to get running with SharePoint Online. When you do install it, be sure and wait several minutes before trying it because it takes some time before it will work. If you don't use this app, you have to create XML files to represent the test license and install them with PowerShell.
- Testing with latency – some of your users are likely to use SharePoint Online. When running in the cloud, things have more latency than on-premises as you know. As a result, some JavaScript that you write may perform greatly on-premises but not so well in the cloud. This is a great way to test for this and see if you need to make any adjustments or add caching.
I have also found that publishing to SharePoint Online really doesn't seem to take any more time that it does locally (most of the time). The biggest drawback here is that you can't debug workflows. That may be a deal breaker at some point, but hasn't been a problem for me yet. You can debug your JavaScript using Visual Studio just fine though.

Snow clears out through Thanksgiving, but what is left on the ground will be a big concern, especially for those of you traveling. Over a foot of snow fell in some spots. Orwell got 16 inches, Middlebury got over a foot.
Tap here for the area temperatures.
Tap here for the latest forecast
Our temperatures will be near or below freezing on Thanksgiving, so most of the snow isn't going anywhere. So use extra caution on the roads if you will be driving, because a lot of the region saw snow and rain.
We stay cold for Friday, lows in the 20s and highs near 30 with partly cloudy skies. Mid 30s and more sun for Saturday before the 40s return for the end of the weekend.

Patch, good news, and bad. Let's get into it...
Piltover...buff? Nice that she might actually be seen one again as a more viable ADC. Though that net nerf...ugh. Nevermind.
Woot, no more "Yay ult! Oh **** no Idol up, damnit I died before ult finished!"
Good, nerf this broken OP champ more please. Melee AND ranged, and good at both? Sounds OP to me.
Miss Fortune
YES. Damnit, I need to own this champion! People need to fear when MF is MIA...
Cougar buffs, hot damn. But, does she really need this? I suppose her non-AP users appreciate it.
Champion unlocked: Rengar. Nuff' said. Thanks for buffs, and listening to community feedback (for once) Riot.
Buffs...? *Cries deeply, hides in base in fear.*
Double U Tee Eff. What Da ****. Tides of Blood nerf, really?? You nerf the ability that costs a ****ing 1/5 of your life?!? Really Riot...git your head out your ass.
Monkey buffs, holy ****. Damnit, now am I gonna buy Rengar next, or Wu??
Good, this guy needs more strong points. Those of us whom are very good with him should be rightly feared.
Ehh, I can't really say for sure this was a needed nerf, but I strongly doubt it will have a massive impact. IMO, nerfs for mana gains are generally the best bet, before nerfs to CD, damage or effect.
ZIGGS! I missed you, little buddy! Glad that I will once again have a good, solid AP pick in him, and not wonder if any game I play will be another **** shoot.
So, those are some pretty good, and a couple bad changes. But, let's see here...something is...missing...
You are STILL not fixing support, Riot. I'm disappointed in you. Lulu especially needs some love. This little Yordle has to have some form of means to defend herself, and farming via Glitterlance is rather pathetic right now. She needs her old ratios back on it, at the very least.
The new Arcade skin since I last played is great! Though, I still think she might be a tad on the UP side, I still don't own her so I can't say for sure.
The Starchild is still very, very sad. I'll let you know I came back to LoL during the Bonus RP period, and had you actually taken some of my advice, and un-nerfed many (or all) of the supports you have been driving into the ground the past year, I might have been tempted to actually purchase the $100 RP bundle. Though sadly, very sadly, you have not, so I only got the $35 one. You lost 2/3rd of your profits, Riot. Keep this in mind next time Morello is going nerf crazy...
Whoa...are you kidding me? The boards are absolutely blowing up about how many problems Syndra has, and she's not getting a single hotfix change?!? This is extremely disappointing. My own suggestions, then:
Mana issues: Reduce the costs of Dark Sphere, and Force of Will at least, as these are your 2 most spammable abilities.
Damage: Dark Sphere is pathetic, and really quite laughable all game. Increase the base damage on it significantly.
Cooldowns: Reduce them, if you are left with Dark Sphere on CD, with no nearby minions, you are 100% screwed.
Ult: The damage is very infrequently substantial, and often only leads to KSing from your team as you drop an enemy only low enough to be finished off by them.
Mushroom damage buff, lower cooldowns on them. I'm going to keep asking for this until I get it...Teemo is barely Captain Teemo w/out them. The "buff" to Toxic Shot was almost nice, until I noticed the DoT aspect of it was nerfed. This is an overall nerf, regardless of the added initial damage. Stop dicking Teemo around! >.<
So, hopefully the pros agree with some of these changes, as for once they seem to be relatively well thought out (except that Vladimir BS.) Hopefully in the future you begin making more clear, concise, thoughtful & balanced game changes.
Also, new refund feature available? Is this just coincedence shortly after Synda was released, to the dismay of the community, being rather weak? I think not.
Junior Member
Noooo, not my precious Yorick. D:
omg they finally noticed that Jayce needed to spend more mana as his abilities got stronger -_-
Question, does anyone think the rengar buff with make him a more viable pick for jungler? Or atleast move him up a tier? I really love rengar's playstyle. But I have heard most people say his jungle is really bad? with such low clear times.
I feel Rengar is such an epic champion, But really viable outside of normal play? Please give me a reply would love to learn more about this topic.
Also Hecarim, needs a speed boost buff, Super damage buff, and and everything he touches turns to fire, and also when i press M the whole screen turns blood red. And he can fly. thank you riot
fnaticRC Xizt
epic patch was epic
Update to the Tribunal: Hire Riot staff to do their job.
Look into every other MMO game, does the community decide justice of other players? NO. It's a joke. Soft skinned people can report the "offensive/toxic" players, but they shouldn't have the ability to ban/suspend them.
I can't tell you how happy this patch made me overall, I felt from the beginning that Rengar needed a bit tuning up, and i'm glad to see it, but even more than that, I'm really happy to see riot making changes to the older champs who aren't used as often (Cait and MF obviously) It really makes me sad to see champ after new champ being released with nothing being done about the older ones. (not that I don't like new champs, but sometimes it feels like my money is going to waste when an older champ doesn't measure up to the new ones) I'm really happy to see Riot paying attention to the older champs and I really hope they continue.
It was said a while back that "Riot hasn't looked at [X champion] recently because no one has been playing them," I think it would be nice if you could take a look at, say the last 6 months and see the champions who were used the least, and maybe do some tweaking there? Generally speaking, there might be a few issues with the champ (or at least the community might think so) out of 100+ champions, 10-20 of them seem to be never used.
(can we please see a poppy buff sometime? or at least a tune up so she can measure up to other champs in lane? besides some glitches, she hasn't really been touched since 7-2010. This would also be a welcome change, because then people wouldn't dodge everytime I lock her in...)
I realize I'm only a junior member, but I hope my post is taken seriously, I'm not trying to whine just because I've lost a few games. I have over 500 games with Poppy, and no matter what I do, especially in lane, she seems useless 90% of the time. As far as I know she has only 2 good matchups, and even those can beat her simply by stacking enough ad. I believe the biggest issue is 2 fold.
Poppy is designed to be tanky at low hp, but with almost every top lane taking ignite her passive is almost completely useless. On top of that, there are only 4 melee champs left in the game with no mr/level. Shen, Gragus, Maokai and Poppy, all of these except Poppy have some sort of natural sustain, some better than others, but still enough to keep them going, except for Poppy, and she also has no form of ranged attack either (heroic charge doesn't count because it forces her to enter melee range) so she must always be on the front line to last hit.
One other point that is less important, but still annoying, is her abysmal mana pool, at level 6, poppy can use all of her abilities once and then she's oom. On the other hand, if you look at jax, not only does he have a higher mana pool and mp/5, but his abilities have much lower costs too. At level 6, Jax can use all 4 abilities and still have 1/3 of his mana pool left.
To summarize
1) I would like to see Poppy's passive work on true damage, sure it would be the only ability in the game to do so, but just because something hasn't been done before has never stopped riot in the past.
2) It would be nice to see poppy get some form of mr, or a sustain of some sort. It's understandable that she could be considered OP if she had the standard 1.25/level, but what about the lesser amount that kayle and nid get, or maybe simply having no + per level, but starting with 40 instead of 30?
3) Being OOM is a bane for every champ, but it seems to be worse on Poppy than almost any other, especially because she must always be in the enemies face to do anything. It would be nice to see her ability costs OR mana tweaked to bring her more in line with other bruisers, such as jax or pantheon.
Again, I understand I'm still new to the community as a whole, but it would be nice for my post to actually be taken seriously, or at least replied to. One last note, I am not saying Poppy needs all of these changes, I'm just trying to bring to light what I think are her biggest issues.

Except of course that is exactly what the GOP was claiming: that the Executive willfully ignored repeated pleas for assistance, and in fact ordered the military to stand down, in order to turn attention away from whatever it was the GOP claimed that Obama didn't want attention paid to. The State Department has already admitted that it handled the situation poorly, so there is no there there. Bottom line: it isn't a scandal. Bad managment? Maybe. But that certainly doesn't justify eight investigations, nor the breathless hyperbole engaged in by both Fox News and politicians like Ted Cruz who had hoped to benefit from creating a scandal where none existed. So the GOP has spent inordinate amounts of time and money to valiantly uncover that which has already been known. Well, done, GOP. Well done.
Interesting. So actual fact-based science is now a Democratic talking point? That would be consistent with much GOTP policy. How about these "talking points:" No one transmits Ebola without being symptomatic. No one has contacted Ebola in the First World who wasn't a healthcare worker in close contact with an Ebola patient and their bodily fluids. I know the Radical Right doesn't believe in science, but the fact remains that this is a bone-headed policy which protects no one, but which panders to uninformed hysteria and to the TP wing of Christie's policy, who have already claimed that Obama wants to infect the U.S. with Ebola as punishment for slavery.
Conservatives now control 3/4 of the gov't. This is now their baby. I just hope they don't expect the Dems to work with them. The game plan they used as a minority to take back Congress (no compromise, lack of bipartisanship, blame, blame, blame) was obviously effective. The Dems would be fools to do anything but follow it. But now Boehner and McConnell get the blame. Obama will catch some of it as well, but because he can't run again, why do they care? Oh, and good luck with the Tea Party, Mitch; you'll need it. You can catch and ride a rabid cougar for a while and go really fast, but the problem is that at some point you have to try to get off, and it then turns on you.
The GOP's failed policies will do nothing to fix a recession that officially doesn't exist, because it only affects the middle class and the poor. The rich are doing very well, thankyouverymuch. So why would the GOP want to change anything with the economy?

There are some indications that the Earth is approaching the end of its era of being able to support complex ecosystems, so after another ME the Earth would eventually recover, but it is not assured that it would recover to the level of biological complexity that existed before the advent of Man.
It's interesting how much climate change denial is starting to sound like 9/11 Truthers and Chem-trail believers. All require increasingly large yet completely secret coordination of various groups in some ever-widening conspiracy, while simultaneously denying both basic science and accusing vast legions of experts in their fields of either being incompetent or else being involved is a nefarious plot. And only the adherents know the "real" truth of the matter in all three cases.
As constant as the Northern star.
A two-meter sea level rise completely submerges New Orleans and Miami. It causes constant flooding in New York, Norfolk, VA, and scores of other coastal cities. Estimates have gone as high as $50B a year for the U.S. alone to mitigate such flooding, and over $1T of economic downturn. And most climatologists admit their estimates may be low, and a 2M rise estimate may be far too small. Still think that climate change mitigation is the only option that potentially reduces standards of living? Climate change deniers always seem to gloss over the real dollar and cent costs of doing nothing.
You can't be serious. You want the "freedom" to be able to eat an artifical substance that kills you, so you force those of us who care about our health to eat it? When these frankenchemicals are used, the manufacturers don't make things without it. Unless I go "off the grid," I can't avoid them, just so you can not care about your health in any way. That's like saying if I don't like the fact that you drive a car ready to explode, I should stay off the road.

In Between the Living and the UndeadElijah set the camera between the branches with trembling hands. His fever had spiked so much he could feel the sweat pouring off his body, drenching him from head to toe. He welcomed the cool mountain breeze as it blew over his ashen face. Once the camera became situated he hit the record button and began."Hello," he spoke wearily. Elijah barely got the first word out before he began coughing violently. When the choking fit ended he could see his own hand was stained with blood. Elijah wiped it on his already stained jeans and continued."My name is Elijah. I am a member of a small band of survivors who are attempting to reach the military base in Vancouver. We have little food or shelter and our morale is low. Yet, by some miracle or just blind luck we've managed to encounter no hoards since reaching the Appalachia."He paused for a moment, biting his dry lip and contemplated. Then he added, "Before the epidemic, I was a scientist working for the

What I gave youI unfairly gave you,Many wonders this world doesn't ownMany pipe dreams I painted for youThe rainbow butterfly of my loveGentle treasures buried in my very soulThe phial of my affection......That you drank in one goDrying me to my last heartbeat.You gave me ashes backSealed in a mocking funeral urn.Even bullets couldn't wound me As much as your sadistic smile.Despite leaving me all alone, againI still forgive you. I still believe in you.On the gloomy roadAnd I walk, and I cry, and I feelA chill of loneliness.
Nine TimesI saw him nine times.The first time we were both sitting in the room together, getting ready to take the math test that would determine our placement. I was scatterbrained and throwing things around, trying to find the pencils that I had known I would need but had still just tossed in my purse. He was lounging backwards in his chair, looking for all the world as though he didn't have a single care in the world, including the upcoming test. It annoyed me, that I was frantic and ready to scream, while someone else could be that relaxed.I tested out of the class. I don't know if he did.The second time I saw him, it was a few months after I arrived on campus. He was the one rushing and frantic this time, running across the square. He was probably late for class, though I had no way of knowing for sure. I was already lost in my own thoughts and ideas, deciding on my major and convincing people that yes, this is what I really want to do with my life. If they weren

MaaheWhen the Maaheseum wore off, Onteia knew she was close to death. Her hair had gone white, her eyes were sunken and glassy, her flesh had receded. Those in her pod were the same: decrepit old men and women, none of them older than twenty-five. Outside, the blueshift had pushed every black hole, every brown dwarf, every burst of cosmic radiation from every pulsar in the Galactic Center into visibility. In hyperspace, even someone who never saw the shining beauty brought out by Maaheseum could see what lay beyond the cursory glance that was their lifelong perspective.The pod was nearing its final destination--the spectacular, unmatched glory of a collapsing star. This was what all Travelers longed to see before their inevitable early death from the drug. Onteia reached into the small container at the center of their pod, where there were enough green-tinted black shards to last a hundred Travelers a decade. She took a piece just over an inch long, and set it on her decaying molars, and b
All Here For A ReasonI turned onto a shady, well-manicured driveway that, for all intents and purposes, looked harmless enough. Maple trees lined both sides of the street, and a parade of Canadian geese marched across the road to a wide duck pond with a flamboyant fountain. There were blooming crepe myrtles and rose-of-sharons, and as I grew closer to my destination, neatly trimmed gardens with neatly trimmed bushes.I stopped to let the geese pass. They looked at me; one hissed. I honked my horn and moved around them.At the end of the road sat a collection of grayish buildings and a number of signs directing me to the appropriate parking lot. "Welcome to Ten Creeks Hospital," said one of them. "Please enjoy your stay." I parked in the visitor's lot. Surely I wouldn't be staying.I was shaking when I got out of my car. I had spent the morning getting high. One foot in front of the other, flip-flop noises, hot sidewalk. Mulberry and magnolia trees, freshly shaved grass. A bench and pan for smokers. A set o
Heaven - Day #2 FFM 2014There was a reminder on the refrigerator door that day, left for me by my brother saying"Let out the dog"This he wrote in bleedy purple ink that made a frost-like border around the letters. I let out the dog and went upstairs. In my bedroom, there was a strong smell of fake lemon from this morning when I had cleaned off that spot of hardened slobber the dog left there last week. Right next the patch of lemony scent (which had replaced the slobber as equally gunky), there was a paper that detailed the reason for my "unfortunate" term three English grade.It said I was doing well. It said I was intelligent. It said I had an obvious insight into the world around me and that I was sure to be a phenomenal speaker if only I would participate outside of class. It also said I couldn't stop writing. That's what was bad, that I couldn't stop writing.They all told me I was a bad writer. They said I rarely used punctuation. They said I wasn't focu

Dodgers Designate Link, Lindsey For Assignment
The Dodgers have designated reliever Jon Link and first baseman John Lindsey for assignment, the club has confirmed.
Link, a 27-year-old right-hander, made his Major League debut with Los Angeles in 2010, appearing in nine games, after spending time in the Padres and White Sox organizations. For his minor league career, he has a 3.84 ERA, 9.0 K/9 and 3.1 BB/9.
Lindsey, 34, debuted in the bigs with the Dodgers in 2010 after a lengthy minor league career. He appeared in 11 games with the big club after a 16-year minors career in which he posted a respectable .284/.361/.478 line in 6,342 plate appearances. Lindsey was a 13th-round pick of the Rockies in 1995.

Dodgers Notes: Ethier, Kemp, Barajas, Gibbons
With the Padres, Giants and Rockies all battling for the playoffs and the Diamondbacks knee-deep in a GM search, don't forget about that fifth team in the NL West. Here are some news items from Dodger Stadium…
- GM Ned Colletti tells Tony Jackson of ESPNLosAngeles.com that the Dodgers will be more active this winter than they were during their relatively quiet 2009-10 offseason.
- According to CSNNE.com's Sean McAdam (Twitter link), Andre Ethier "has told some [he] would love to come to Boston." McAdam doesn't elaborate on whether or not Ethier really wants out of L.A. or that the Dodgers would consider moving him, but in another tweet McAdam writes that he has "a feeling, that given the mess the franchise is in, nothing [is] off table."
- Since the Dodgers are in the market for a third outfielder next season, Jon Weisman of ESPNLosAngeles.com suggests they could acquire a center fielder and move Matt Kemp to right. Kemp has delivered a -17.7 UZR/150 in center this season after being an above-average fielder in 2009.
- Weisman also writes that Rod Barajas and Jay Gibbons have performed well enough to be brought back by the club in 2011. Gibbons, for his part, is on board with that idea. He tells Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times (Twitter link) that playing for the Dodgers is a "dream job."
- Hernandez also tweets that Dodgers assistant GM De Jon Watson will interview for the vacant Arizona general manager's job tomorrow, while Logan White interviewed for the job today.
- Jim Peltz of the L.A. Times has the story of the Dodgers' John Lindsey, who is finally a major leaguer after spending 16 years in the minors.
- As we wait to find out if Joe Torre will leave the Dodgers after this season, the L.A. Times' Steve Dilbeck simply asks, "why would Joe Torre stay?"

Jonathan Rauch writes that Christian conservatives, in response to their defeat in the "culture wars," are likely to isolate themselves from the wider society. I think that is precisely what they will do. It's what they've done before.
Their eyes softened just for a moment, remembering the day. They described that their marriage had added priceless depth and surprising meaning to their lives together. My own eyes teared up in response.
The term activism has become such a cliché, we have become unsure of its actual meaning. Take online petitions for example, or what I consider to be the ultimate in Slacktivism technology.
After the Supreme Court's Hobby Lobby decision, conservative religionists tried seizing the opportunity to exclude people from their midst whose non-heterosexuality troubles them. The president of my own alma mater was one of them.
If there ever was a likelihood that issues of gay rights would provoke a major split in U.S. Christianity, it appears that time may have passed.
Embracing LGBT employees isn't about sacrificing your values, it's simply about treating people like people, fairly and equitably.
When asked about the recent progress of Kenya's LGBT movement, Njeri Gateru doesn't hesitate to answer with the word "visibility." Ms. Gateru is one of 500 fellows taking part in the Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders, the new flagship program of President Obama's Young African Leaders Initiative. IREX is pleased to share her story.
Most commitments in life come with an escape clause. You can join a group and later decide to leave. You can accept a job and then quit. Deep friendships can slowly fade -- even marriages. But to be asked by someone to participate in the act of creating a child... this was truly sacred.
AB-2501 sends a global message that the gay-transgender panic defense should not and will not be tolerated. The LGBTQ community must write their law makers, do not let people get away with murder, they have been doing it for far to long.

During dinner, my aunt handed us a folded piece of paper containing an email she had received from the senior pastor of the Meridian Street United Methodist Church, Anne Rosebrock. I quickly read the email and was greatly impressed by the powerful message it contained.
Michael, who is living with HIV, fled Nigeria two years ago after being beaten up and threatened with his life by anti-gay vigilantes. He was shunned by his family and was forced to live a life of exile in the US.
Perhaps it is our job, we insider sheep, to take our eyes off the controversy and place them on the shepherd, who may be not so much seeking our opinion on the matter as executing his own.
Gay people have to be courageous to accept ourselves, be honest about our feelings, and live our lives. I struggle with that courage every day, but when I read the bull**** that people say, I just want to stand tall with my chest puffed out and say, "I'm a homosexual and there ain't nothin' wrong with that!"
I came out 21 years ago. In my line of work as an actor and comedian, it has been one of the single best choices I have made for both my career and life. But I got to make that choice for myself. This brings us to Simon Hobbs.
Bindel's rage at the current state of play burns through every page, but is juxtaposed with moments of surprising poignancy as she reflects on her own early days as part of a very different "community" -- that of the Gay Liberation Front, which is the point of comparison on which much of her argument rests.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Bad miss made McCallum better
CFL's best kicker since infamous 2004 blunder
VANCOUVER -- The West final will mark a unique anniversary for Paul McCallum.
Playing for Saskatchewan in the 2004 West Final, the veteran kicker missed an 18-yard field goal attempt that would have given the Roughriders a berth in the Grey Cup. Instead, the host B.C. Lions prevailed and went on to win the title.
McCallum was subsequently disowned by Rider fans and, after one more season in Regina, ended up moving back to the Lions, the team with which he had begun his unlikely CFL career.
The miss could have destroyed McCallum's career. Instead, it made him better.
"I wanted it not to define me," McCallum said Saturday after his club's final walkthrough at BC Place Stadium. "I made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes, and I didn't want to be known for that mistake. You can come back and make a positive out of a negative. I think I've done that."
There is little doubt he has.
Heading into today's contest against the Calgary Stampeders, he has made 39 of the 40 field goals he has attempted in the playoffs (semifinals, division finals and Grey Cup included) since 2006. His only miss came in last year's Grey Cup, which the Lions won anyway, over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
"I'm pretty proud of that, but my career's not over, so I just want to keep going," he said.
This season, McCallum has adjusted to a new holder in backup quarterback Mike Reilly and snapper in Angus Reid on field goals. They replaced former backup signal-caller Jarious Jackson, who was released and signed with Toronto in the off-season, and Dan McCulloch, who retired.
After some struggles adjusting to the newcomers, he established the same high level of trust and comfort that he felt with his former battery mates in a process that lasts a few seconds. McCallum finished the regular season with 44 field goals -- the highest total in the league -- off 52 attempts.
His punts averaged 41.2 yards and his kickoffs travelled an average of 56.5.
The field goal stats were down slightly from 2011, when he connected on 50-of-53 attempts.
But the results defied the fact that at age 42, the Surrey, B.C., product is the oldest player in the CFL.
"To me, I don't think age is an issue as far as I'm still here at that age," he said. "It's the fact that I'm still producing at that age."
According to Don Sweet, a CFL legend with the Montreal Alouettes who now tutors McCallum, the B.C. veteran's success has nothing to do with age. It's all about how smoothly he swings his leg, rhythm, tempo, and the ability to cast aside "voices" in his head that lead to extra pressure and distractions.
"You have to have ice in your veins," said Sweet, when asked what it takes to be a good kicker.
He rates McCallum as the CFL's all-time best, or at least on par with Lions legend Lui Passaglia, who played 25 seasons.
As a divorced father of two girls aged 11 and 13, McCallum, who is also a residential real estate agent, could face plenty of distraction on and off the field. He attributes his strong focus to positive thinking and his thirst for pressure-packed situations.
"I just think it's kind of your personality, your nature, your demeanour and things like that," said McCallum, adding he does not need to block anything out.
"It's just something that I enjoy. I don't feel the same kind of pressure that, maybe, somebody else does."
With the 2004 miss having made him stronger and better, McCallum is not fazed by the possibility of being called in during the dying moments of today's game to attempt a field goal necessary to keep the Lions' hopes of a second consecutive Grey Cup alive.
"I try and approach them all the same way," he said. "I've gotta make them all."

Messer says, "Listen" (which BTW, is one of the buzzwords that all of these talking heads start their statements with to sternly get the attention of the second grade level American minds who still buy their BS), "I'm no fan of this President and I'm certainly no fan of this President's foreign policy...I THINK HIS MISMANAGEMENT HAS COMPOUNDED OUR PROBLEMS THERE...but I believe we can't stop being America because we have an ineffective Commander in Chief..."
Translation? He thinks the President has grossly mismanaged the Middle East and doesn't support him or his foreign policy, however, he fervently supports giving Obama even more power and encouragement to continue on. Except, this time, he will be doing so against the wishes and might of the Russian and Chinese military machines, hence risking WW III. All the while, just about the entire adult population of the United States, plus, almost everyone else in world, opposes any action.
What a f'n idiot! This jerk must be first in line for some of the free bribe money that has been dangled in front of him and all the other traitorous Congressional hacks who support this treasonous and illegal act!
I say it's time for his bosses, the American People, to band together and fire all of these ignorant turncoats...and soon, or else!
"Liberty tastes sweetest to those who fight for it, and most bitter to those who work to deny it!"

Republicans Gary Miller and Bob Dutton square off in Inland Empire race for Congress
Two veteran politicians are battling for control of a newly drawn Congressional district in the Inland Empire.
Both candidates are Republicans — pushed into an all-GOP fight by California's "top two" primary system that sends the two leading vote-getters into the general election regardless of party. But even though both are Republicans, there are key differences between the two.
The 31st Congressional District swings west from Redlands, up through San Bernardino and out to Rancho Cucamonga — home base for Republican Congressman Gary Miller.
"This is my fourth event today," said Miller outside his campaign office before joining supporters for a hamburger lunch on a recent Saturday.
For nearly 15 years, Miller represented the 42nd District — an Orange County Republican stronghold that included a small ribbon of the Inland Empire.
Bill Clinton traveling to Irvine to boost CA Democratic Congressional candidates
Joe Raedle/Getty Images
Former President Bill Clinton recently spoke at an event at Florida International University in Miami.
Bill Clinton is visiting Orange County Tuesday. The former President is lending some star power to a quintet of lesser known Democrats who'd like to become members of the US House of Representatives.
Democrats know that if they want a shot at taking back the House, they have to pick up more than two dozen seats around the country. Redistricting has made California ground zero for turning red to blue.
To help out, Clinton will be the headliner at a UC Irvine rally called "California's Voice."
He'll be there to boost candidates in five of the toughest House races in California. Three are running for open seats: Julia Brownley in Ventura, Alan Lowenthal in Long Beach, and Mark Takano in Riverside. Two others are taking on GOP incumbents: Scott Peters in San Diego, and Raul Ruiz in Palm Springs.
Deadline looms to register to vote for November elections
Joe Raedle/Getty Images
In California, voters can now register on the internet. Shown is an old-fashioned Florida Voter Registration Application.
If you want to vote in the November 6 Presidential election you have until midnight on Monday to register. Eligible voters must be citizens of the United States and 18 years old by November 6th.
In California, the deadline to register is always two weeks before the election date, and this weekend the rush is on to register. For the first time in the run-up to a Presidential election, voters may go online to register.
California Secretary of State Debra Bowen is responsible for managing the hundreds of thousands of applications submitted in the final weeks before the voter registration deadline.
Bowen says she wants as many people as possible to register before Monday, and points out that should internet registration be too difficult, that the trusty paper applications are widely available.
Voices of Young Voters: We talked to college students about what matters to them this election

Sharon McNary interviews a young voter at Whittier College
Could the voice of millennials be enough to change the election? An estimated 46 million of them (between age 18 and 29) will be eligible to vote this election year. We joined KQED and other West Coast public radio stations as a part of a project called "Young Voters West," which aimed to collect the voices of these young voters — what they stand for, why they matter and what issues are on their mind.
We headed to Whittier College, the University of Southern California and UCLA.
Do their votes matter? Young voters overwhelmingly said they did, and even if they weren't quite 100 percent informed, they wanted to make sure they had their say in this year's election.
For Phong, a Vietnamese immigrant who was just naturalized, voting was important because, in his homeland, votes were just for show.
Business sector is dubious of Props 30, 38
Bookstore owner Alzada Knickerbocker discusses an upcoming community event with manager Nicholas Weigand.
At the Avid Reader bookstore in Davis, just steps away from the UC campus, a customer digs into her wallet to purchase an early work by Jules Verne. The woman ringing up the purchase is store owner Alzada Knickerbocker.
"This is my 25th year," Knickerbocker says. "It's an exciting year. So we have to celebrate that we're still here."
The Avid Reader is one of two local independent bookstores that survived the arrival of Borders a decade ago. Now that the chain store has folded, Knickerbocker says things are looking up.
