SHILLONG: A day after reports of the detention of Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) chief Champion Sangma by security forces in Bangladesh, state police were yet to come out with any official reaction on the matter, even as Intelligence sources iterated the former cop-turned-rogue was indeed in the dragnet of authorities in the neighbouring country.
"There are indications that he was detained by the Rapid Action Battalion of Bangladesh in Mynmensing district," a source said.
Champion, a former DSP in the Meghalaya Police, was widely believed to have been hiding in Bangladesh, due to proximity of the neighbouring country to Garo Hills.
The GNLA had let loose a reign of terror in Garo Hills, indulging in killings and kidnapping of government officials and businessmen. Recently, the outfit had abducted the BDO of Dadenggre block, P K Boro, whose whereabouts are yet to be traced.
The state police had formed a team of Special Weapons and Tactics ( SWAT), consisting of highly trained commandos, to neutralize the GNLA rebels.
Meanwhile, leader of opposition in the Meghalaya assembly, Conrad K Sangma, met governor Ranjit Shekhar Mooshahary here this evening and expressed his concern over the prevailing law and order situation in Garo Hills.
Welcoming reports of the detention of the GNLA chief, Conrad, while stating that he too was not absolutely sure about the development, said this would be a step forward in dealing with the outfit.
Meanwhile, interrogation of the six GNLA 'linkmen', nabbed by the state police on Wednesday in connection with an arms deal in the city, was on, police sources said. The city police apprehended an aide of the GNLA, Jackiush A Sangma, based on whose interrogation five others involved in the arms deal were also nabbed.
"Jackiush was in Shillong to make an arms deal with some persons, but a police team apprehended him along with two others, namely Bappun A Sangma and Harding M Marak," East Khasi Hills SP, A R Mawthoh, had said. Cash amounting to Rs 11,49,500 was seized from Jackiush's possession.
"On interrogation, he revealed that he was an aide of Sohan D Shira, 'C-in-C' of the GNLA, and was sent by him for procuring arms and ammunition from one Pungam Hangal alias Angam of Dimapur, who had come to Shillong for the deal," the SP had informed.
Sources said the rebel leader may be handed over to Indian authorities in Meghalaya.

Season 6 finally premieres tonight! With high hopes for what's ahead, we celebrate designers from past seasons who've stayed in our memories -- including Christian Siriano, Jay McCarroll, and Stella Zotis -- and their best work
Season 4
We really only need to use one word here to describe the season 4 winner: fierce! The pint-size designer, who single-handedly sent that catchphrase spiraling across the nation (no, really, he was even mocked in an SNL skit), was able to accomplish something most PRers hadn't before him immaculate high fashion (remember that pale pink avant-garde tiered gown?). Still, Christian's overconfidence (''I just know I make clothes so much better than the other designers,'' he said during a challenge) could have easily been mistaken for complete arrogance.

City wants to write rules for social media use
MONROE - The City Council initiated a discussion last week on social media and how elected officials should use it to allow for citizen input but avoid risks associated with discussing city business on the Internet.
At next week's meeting, the council will discuss forming a special committee to draft rules for communicating on such forums as Facebook.
Many council members expressed concern over the fact that communication with citizens become public record and worried that each and every interaction online might not be properly documented.
"There are some inconveniences associated with being a council member in what we can say and who we can meet with," Councilman Kurt Goering said. "Conversation is not a public record, but in social media, it is."
The issue became an issue after council members in October criticized Councilwoman Patsy Cudaback for writing something to a citizen on her Facebook page, which was dedicated to city business. Cudaback took down her page after Goering and Councilman Kevin Hanford accused her of breaking the law. An outside expert on this area of the law previously told the Tribune he didn't think Cudaback broke any law.
The City Council reviewed other municipality polices on social media to model Monroe's after. The city of Cheney's appeared to be most favored among members.
Goering suggested modeling elected officials' behavior after Bothell's practice of having an online "Council Corner," in which city officials post a statement on social media meant to inform the public of current events but bans any back-and-forth commentary.
"So, it's not an interaction," Councilman Jim Kamp said.
"That's what's recommended in these instances," Goering said.
Cudaback said she values the importance of open government and transparency and liked how social media provides an outlet for that.
"Facebook can be used as an effective tool to engage with your constituents," Cudaback said. "When I ran for City Council, it was on a platform of transparency and openness to connect with citizens, to really be out there."
She also acknowledged the dangers associated with social media.
"The other perspective is that we need to make sure that we're being aware and strategic of the pitfalls and the dangers," Cudaback said. "We need to make sure we're following the ethics ... that you're not using social media to endorse candidates or push your campaign, and that there's also records retention. We want to make sure that we're meeting the requirement for public records compliance."

It's Week 2 of The Bachelorette and for the first time, we see a local news report about the filming of the show. Apparently this is a big deal for Charlotte, N.C.
Emily gets together with some girlfriends to tell them about her first night. Must be nice to be allowed to chat with friends, rather than have the usual solitary confinement our Bachelors and Bachelorettes experience. At the house, Chris announces the first one-on-one date, which goes to Ryan. But rather than the glamorous or adventurous dates viewers are used to, Emily takes Ryan home to bake cookies for her daughter's soccer team. Ryan seems right at home with the apron on and the two seem to be effortless together. Once the cookies are done, they're off to the soccer field where Ryan waits in the car as Emily brings the kids the goodies. Ryan seems in awe of watching Em in her element.
But the date isn't all comfy clothes and baking cookies. At night, the pair gets dolled up. (Love Ryan's silvery suit!) The Charlotte fandom is even waiting outside the restaurant for their arrival. Once inside, Emily doesn't waste much time before asking Ryan about his exes. He's had two serious relationships, he says. They then delve deep into how to pursue someone and how Emily's new man will eventually fit into Ricki's life. Ryan lays it on by telling Emily how attractive she was making cookies and that he likes her already. Clearly, he gets the rose. Dinner is capped off with dancing to a live performance from Emily's favorite band, Gloriana. But no kisses just yet!

When I got this the TV listening portion was fine but the FM radio would cut out and in constantly. I did some simple surgery and now everything works perfectly! Here's how...1st, follow the suggestions in the other reviews about pulling apart the transmitter and turning the screw a bit counter-clockwise thus putting the transmitter at the bottom range of the FM scale. When I turn my unit on I don't even have to reset to tune it in. It just comes in on the proper TV station. Next, pull the cover off the earphone with the controls on it. It just pulls apart--no screws--easy-peasy. Now look for a thin black wire that's all coiled up inside the earphone housing. It's the antenna wire. It is only attached to the board at 1 end. Uncoil it and get it out of the case. You can take a knife and score the edge of the case to give the wire a channel to run through and keep it from pinching. Pop the ear cover back on. I taped the wire to the headband in a couple of places with black elec. tape but you could use twist ties, zip ties, a drop of hot glue, or whatever you like to hold the wire in place. Now I can walk all over the house and out in the yard and still get excellent TV reception. The FM radio works equally as well anywhere I go.Try it before returning them as "defective"! I now have 2 of these and they both work well.Good luck!

I received these headphones as a gift to be used with a Plasma TV located in a bedroom. The transmitter output consists of 1 red RCA male and 1 - 3.5mm headphone male. I hooked up the red RCA to my Plasma - no sound. I tried the FM radio scan and was able to listen to radio stations, but the sound quality is very poor - no bass, etc.I tried hooking the transmitter to the DVR audio output, still no sound. Finally, I fired up my laptop, and put it on Pandora. Plugged the 3.5mm jack into the laptop. I could hear garbled sounds emitting from the headphones. I put them on, and the sound was gone. Pushed the reset button, still no sound. Turned off the transmitter and headphones. Turned them back on - still no sound. Repeatedly plugged and unplugged the 3.5mm jack, and then - SOUND! The audio quality is poor, but it is clear with no static. I connected the RCA jack to the Plasma, and now there is sound. The TV volume control doesn't affect the headphone volume, which is good. You can turn your TV sound all the way down and still listen through the headphones.I have no idea why they didn't work for so long, and I have no idea if they will continue to work.

About Me Casual Do-It-Yourselfer
I took the first set back because it constantly cutout, the second set did the same as long as I connected them to the analog audio out on my digital Tv. I have the optical out of my Tv connected to an input on my stereo, so I connected the transmitter with an adapter to the 1/4" headphone jack on my stereo. Now I can control the signal level going to the transmitter, and that seems to keep it from over driving and cutting out. Batteries are no longer a problem, I use rechargeable batteries and charge them every few days. I've had this unit for approximately 6 months now, and still working great.

I dvd homeschool and I have a splitter in the headphone jack so one of my students can listen to his videos by headphone as well as myself (in certain classes). I decided to attach my wireless headphones to the splitter instead of regular headphones and now I am free to sit at MY desk and still listen to my students video. This system has given me the freedom to be at my desk doing other things. I can even go out of the classroom to the living room and still get a decent reception. Why didn't I think of trying these sooner! Thinking about getting three more to have on my other kids tv/dvd so I can randomly do the same with them (you know, the eyes in the back of my head kind of mom).

I love these things.

About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
I love these things. They work just fine. What do people expect for the money. My parents purchased TV Ears that cost $100 and have a rechargeable docking station. These use 2 AA, but last months. There are 2 buttons. A reset button and a channel change button. Click the reset button, and then begin clicking the channel change button. On the 3rd click, it tunes into my TV. You can continue advancing to pick up radio stations. The ear pieces are "on ear". I would prefer the "over ear" type but these are fine. Now I can listen to my TV or DVD player without disturbing others. If your an audiophile, you'd probably be better off spending $100 or more. If your like me, these are fine and I appreciate not having to spend an arm and a leg!

Works, as long as the frequency is open
By kc-science

About Me Professional
I agree 100% with the excellent review from "Ed" in Redmond, Washington. His review is well worth a read.I could not get the headphones to lock onto the transmitter. A clock radio I have laying around found the signal from the transmitter just fine (around FM 89-90), but the headphones rarely did, and when they did lock onto the signal, turning my head was often enough to make them loose the signal again. Very annoying...Assuming a local source was interfering, I re-tuned the transmitter to a lower frequency (as suggested by Ed). Snapping open the case revealed a very small circuit board with just one adjustable item - a variable inductor right next to the condenser microphone. I turned the ferrite bead inside the inductor about 1/2 turn counter-clockwise, which put the signal at FM 88.Now it works great! Very reliable!I am not a fan of the "reset and then scan" user interface - it's rather odd. Having the transmitter set to the bottom of the dial (FM 88) so it's the first thing the headphones finds, definitely helps, though.While I had the transmitter open, I probed the external power input jack. It's center positive. This fact should be in the manual.
Not bad if you understand the quirks
By Ed
from Redmond, WA
My son bought these with his allowance and could not get them to work. Before bringing them back, the "engineer-wanna-be" inside me just couldn't let it go without having a look myself...After futzing around with them and opening up the base to reverse engineering it (the case pops open if you do it carefully -- no screws) I discovered a few things folks should know when purchasing this:1. THESE ARE *NOT* STEREO WHEN USED IN WIRELESS MODE! The base ONLY transmits the LEFT audio channel. (The "ring" contact on the cord doesn't connect to anything; the "red" RCA is in parallel with the mini plug's "tip." Technically, it should be "white" to be consistent with industry norms IMHO.)2. If there is a strong station close to the frequency of the base, the headphones can get confused when they try to "seek" to the signal. (I opened the case and re-tuned my transmitter to a lower frequency so the headphones now find the base before any broadcast stations. If you do this, you need a plastic screwdriver because metal near the coil affects the tuning and makes it difficult to know where you are.)3. You need to "seek" to the base pretty much every time you turn on the headphones. That is, it doesn't "remember" where it was tuned the last time you used them. As somebody else wrote, the seek button just scans from the bottom of the band upwards until reset back to the bottom to start again. The base is tuned towards the bottom, so you should run across the signal fairly quickly. (Before I re-tuned my base, it took about 3 or 4 clicks on the seek button because of interference from a local broadcast station.)4. It sometimes helps to use a different FM radio to look for the signal to ensure it is transmitting. It also helps to play an MP3 so you have a known signal to look for.5. If the base stops transmitting, or possibly even goes quiet because you disconnect the audio cable, or turn off the base, the headphones seem to somehow "lose their lock" on the signal. (I didn't take the headphones apart to understand that end of it!) So, you may need to make sure you have audio to the base, use Reset and Seek again.So, with these quirks and limitations in mind, they really are a great value for the money, but do NOT expect super hi-fi, stereo performance because that is not what these will give you. They're fine for watching news, cartoons, or whatever else you don't need stereo for -- and they sound just fine as far as that goes.
Compared to my alternate, these are cool
By WorkdayCheese
from Idaho
Considering the alternatives, these are great. I am kind of a gamer, so these came in handy in numerous ways. I have an Xbox 360 with a Kinect. I hooked these up to the outputs of my TV and turned the Kinect on for game/party chat. Now, I could hear everything through the headset, game and chat and everyone could hear me through the Kinect with no background noise or feedback. I essentially got the same thing that a Turtle Beach or other headset would have given me, but for a ridiculously smaller fraction of the price. Sound is okay, but it does not have the crispiest treble or punchiest bass. Connected to my phone, with the Beats Audio feature turned on, these things are okay. Just be advised that it is transmitted through FM frequency, so it can get some static at times. The frequency is 88.1. We have an FM station here that broadcasts on that, but it did not intrude, until I left range or turned off the transmitter. No biggie. A little patience to learn these simple things will be worth every penny in the long run.

Remember the story of David and Goliath?
This classic Biblical story comes to life on a daily basis for over 350 FOCUS missionaries serving on the frontlines to confront the culture of death with the gospel of life.
Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) has an annual budget of over $1 Billion and performed 329,445 abortions in 2010. Ironically, PPFA had an excess of revenue over expenses of 18.5 million dollars (in other words, this billion dollar non-profit organization profited 18.5 million in 2010); sadly, 46% of the total PPFA budget comes from taxpayer dollars in the form of government funding.
We are outnumbered. We are mocked and ridiculed. We have less material resources. But just as God was with David, St. Paul reminds us to "be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes." (Ephesians 6:10-11).
Thanks to a generous matching offer from a FOCUS mission partner, we have the opportunity to raise $500,000 toward our efforts to build a culture of life on the college campus and beyond.
Help us make the most of the matching gift by making a donation today. Together, we can change the world, one soul at a time.

Posts Tagged: male valley carpenter bee
Cuddly Little Teddy Bear
It's a sure sign of spring when we see "the teddy bear bee."
Native pollinator specialist Robbin Thorp, emeritus professor of entomology at the University of California, Davis, calls the male Valley carpenter bee (Xylocopa varipuncta) "the teddy bear bee."
An apt description, to be sure. It's gold with green eyes and is often mistaken for "a golden bumble bee." It isn't. It's a carpenter bee. The female of the species is solid black.
Yes, they're pollinators.
Thorp netted one of the teddy bear bees March 12 in front of the Harry H. Laidlaw Jr. Honey Bee Research Facility on Bee Biology Road, UC Davis, and saved it for doctoral graduate student Margaret "Rei" Scampavia and yours truly to photograph for a quick catch-and-release session.
We placed it on a germander bush in the nearby Häagen-Dazs Honey Bee Haven. The boy bee. The blue blossoms. Bee Biology Road.
And oh, those green eyes!
Soon the little fellow abruptly fled our photo session, soaring high above our heads and never looking back.
Probably to meet up with the girls.

The 'Teddy Bear' Bee
Lots of youngsters received teddy bears as holiday gifts.
But native pollinator specialist Robbin Thorp, emeritus professor of entomology at UC Davis, received a teddy bear, too.
Of sorts.
A male valley carpenter bee (Xylocopa varipuncta), aka "teddy bear," recently visited his Davis home during the long holiday season. "We found it behind the couch," he said.
It's a green-eyed blond and fuzzy just like a teddy bear, thus its name. The female are solid black.
To the untrained eye, the male is often thought to be "a new species, a golden bumble bee." We get scores of telephone calls asking what this "big yellow bumble bee" is. A bumble bee, it isn't. A carpenter bee, it is.
Every time I see the females buzzing around, I think "Can the 'teddy bears' be far behind?"
I saw one zipping through our garden last summer but it never stopped long enough for me to capture its image.
But with Thorp's "teddy bear," I could. It's in his refrigerator, spending part of the winter there. Soon, he said, he'll give it a little honey.

What's That Bug?
If you don't know what it is, don't kill it.
That insect in your garden could very well be a beneficial insect.
If you operate on the "shoot-first-ask-questions later" or "the only good bug is a dead bug," no telling how many insects--and generations--you'll be destroying.
Butterfly expert Art Shapiro, professor of evolution and ecology at UC Davis, tells this story that's worth remembering.
"Last week I was walking across Capitol Park in Sacramento when I observed a smartly dressed young woman in her 20s stomp a praying mantis and grind it into the sidewalk. She exclaimed to her phenotypically similar friend: 'Did you ever see such an ugly, icky bug?'"
And, many years ago, Shapiro encountered a man in College Park, Davis, in the act of stomping a Tiger Swallowtail.
Shapiro asked him why he was doing this.
The man replied: "This is the bug that has the big green caterpillar that eats my tomato plants!"
When Shapiro told him it wasn't, the man told him to check his information, and that "I'm right and you're wrong."
There is indeed a lot of misinformation and misidentification out there.
Tabatha Yang of the Bohart Museum of Entomology at UC Davis relates the story about an avid gardener who absolutely loved ladybugs (aka lady beetles) because of their voracious appetites for aphids. But when our avid gardener came across "some weird black and orange bugs," she promptly killed them.
Little did she know that she was killing immature ladybugs.
Then there's the story about a UC Master Gardener who encountered a "green-eyed golden bumblebee-like" insect that frightened her because it buzzed so loudly around her flower beds. So, she killed it. Turns out it was a pollinator, a male Valley carpenter bee, also known as a "teddy bear."
And, can you imagine what goes through people's minds when they meet up with a Jerusalem cricket in the mud after a rain? Whoa! Bug-o-mania!
Here's where the Bohart Museum, 1124 Academic Surge on California Drive, UC Davis campus, can help. If you live in California and see an insect and wonder if it's beneficial insect or a pest--or just want to know what it is--take a photo of it and email it to the Bohart. Lynn Kimsey, director of the Bohart Museum (home of more than seven million specimens) and professor of entomology at UC Davis, identifies insects in between research, teaching, administering the Bohart Museum, and other duties. Her email address: email@example.com.
In fact, if you go to the UC Davis Department of Entomology home page and scroll down to the bottom you'll see:
"Do you have an insect question? Ask It Here!"
Maybe, just maybe, this will save a few praying mantids, ladybugs, Valley carpenter bees and Jerusalem crickets./span>

Christmas arrived a couple of days late this year for the South Carolina Department of Education, which received its first delivery of newly purchased school buses on Dec. 27. Dr. Mick Zais, state superintendent of education, said the department would receive 342 new school buses after all deliveries are completed.
This is the first state purchase of newly manufactured buses since 2008. The state has purchased retired, used school buses from other states at auction in recent years, as those buses are still much younger than some 25- to 30-year-old buses still in operation in South Carolina.
The state is the only one in the nation that operates all of its school buses directly. Gov. Nikki Haley has pushed for either outsourcing all buses to contractor companies or giving individual county school districts the ability to outsource or own and operate fleets in-house. Currently, there are nearly 6,000 school buses owned and operated by the Department of Education for school districts, and buses are required by law to be replaced at least every 12 years, if budget dollars are available.
Parents expressed concern about the safety of riding in older buses when school resumed in September, complaining about the lack of heat and air-conditioning as well as the bumpy rides. A model year 1990 school bus broke down three times in the first month of school, according to one parent.
"State government has heard the concerns of students and parents about the age of the school bus fleet, and today is a tangible milestone as we work towards resolving this issue in the years ahead," said Dr. Zais.
The superintendent thanked the General Assembly for prioritizing funds for school bus procurement in the past two state budgets. He has requested $34 million for school bus purchases in fiscal year 2013-2014.
"Today is an example of how elected officials from different political parties can come together and work towards a solution," he added.
Dr. Zais noted the new school buses are more fuel efficient, less expensive to maintain and are equipped to transport students with disabilities. They will replace all buses from model years 1984, 1985, 1986 and 1987 as well as some 1988 models. Each bus cost $82,030. The SCDE spent $28,054,260 from lottery revenues, general fund carry-forward monies and proceeds from selling scrap metal from decommissioned school buses.
"South Carolina didn't earn the distinction of operating the oldest bus fleet in the nation overnight," Dr. Zais continued, "and this issue won't be fixed overnight."
In its 2006 National School Bus Report Card, the Union of Concerned Scientists singled out South Carolina for having one of the oldest and highly polluting school bus fleets in the nation.

Title: Very cute
Date: Dec 09, 2013
Doing an airplane theme for a baby shower and needed something for a centerpiece for the tables and saw this. I ordered them and they are adorable. A little small, but I plan on making a runway and have a cluster of balloons with clouds on them also on the table, so this should be plenty. I plan on playing a game and give each center piece away to the winners. Can't wait till my guests see them. Perfect little gift for a baby or small child.

Can the Renewable Energy Sector Roar Back?
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. -- Alternative energy stocks were battered on Wall Street in 2008 as volatile commodity prices, a continuing global recession and tightening credit markets drove one ethanol company into bankruptcy protection and sent shares of others down more than 90 percent.
Wind and solar companies fared slightly better, but the worldwide economic downturn overshadowed $17 billion in new federal tax incentives that had those industries poised to take off.
"Those are the two ends," said Joseph Muscat, Ernst & Young's Americas director of cleantech and venture capital. "As we end the year, I think right now the challenges in the economy are weighing more heavily than those incentive programs to try to keep the industry moving along at a good pace."
It was a tough year for stocks overall as bad bets on mortgages erupted into a global crisis that seized up credit markets.While the Dow Jones Total Market Index fell 40 percent and the Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 39 percent, shares of companies like Suntech Power Holdings Co. Ltd. (STP) plummeted 86 percent and First Solar Inc. (FSLR) lost nearly 50 percent of its value. In wind, which is dominated by companies that trade on foreign exchanges, shares of Denmark's Vestas Wind Systems A/S logged large share-price declines. One of the hardest hit alternative energy segments was biofuels, as tightening credit markets erased the sector's lifeline to weather volatile corn and fuel price swings. Near-zero profit margins caused by rapidly rising corn costs and declining ethanol prices helped drive VeraSun Energy Corp., the nation's No. 2 ethanol producer, into Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. And shares of Aventine Renewable Energy Holdings Inc. (AVR), Pacific Ethanol Inc. (PEIX) and BioFuel Energy Corp. (BIOF) all lost more than 95 percent of their value during 2008. Oil is trading at low levels not seen in more than four years, prompting naysayers to once again chant "ethanol is dead." That statement couldn't be further from the truth, said Tim Hannagan, a grains analyst at Alaron Trading Corp. in Chicago.

Armenian Red Lentil Soup by Jennifer Abadi
Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease, is the most common form of arthritis. With osteoarthritis, the joint cartilage gradually deteriorates and bones become exposed and rub together, sometimes creating growths called spurs. When the joint moves, spurs grind against each other, causing pain and joint instability. Osteoarthritis can affect any joint. However, it is most common in the fingers, knees, ankles, feet, hips, neck, and spine.
Osteoarthritis is mild at first. Stiffness and pain may occur in the morning or after exercise, but usually dissipate after rest. In some cases the condition worsens and can be severely debilitating. After years of wear and tear, the affected joints can become deformed or misshapen. The body cannot rebuild cartilage. Injury or overuse of a joint can accelerate the development of osteoarthritis.
Psoriatic Arthritis has general arthritic symptoms which occur in conjunction with redness and itching over the affected area. Silver or gray scaly spots may also appear on the scalp, elbows, knees, or the lower spine. Inflammation as well as swelling in small joints may also occur with psoriatic arthritis. Fingernails and toenails have been known to fall off.
Rheumatoid Arthritis is different from psoriatic and osteoarthritis because of the symmetry of condition. It usually affects both sides of the body when it occurs (such as hands, wrists or knees). Rheumatoid arthritis can be diagnosed based on the location and symmetry of affected areas. Other symptoms and signs are more or less the same as osteoarthritis. It can be diagnosed through a blood test.
Our customized online meal planner uses the healing power of whole foods to help you manage arthritis. It takes into consideration the health conditions of everyone in your household, allowing you to serve wonderful meals that meet everyone's nutritional needs.
MyFoodMyHealth automatically generates a shopping list for you based on your conditions, making shopping easy.

BOURBONNAIS — It could have been the chest bump he received from quarterback Jay Cutler. It could be all his activity on Twitter. Or it could be his happy-go-lucky demeanor and big, beaming smile.
Whatever the reason, offensive tackle J'Marcus Webb has been a lightning rod for criticism when the Bears' offensive line struggles. He even gets heckled by fans during one-on-one drills at training camp.
Some of it is fair and some isn't.
''I feel pretty comfortable with what I did [in 2012],'' Webb said. ''I just have to take that as a platform and take it a step further and make sure I solidify myself as a really good tackle in this league.''
He really has no other choice. Even though Webb started every game at left tackle for a 10-6 team last season, the Bears still thought an upgrade was needed and signed Jermon Bushrod to a lucrative five-year deal. Webb was bumped to the right side, a move he said he ''happily accepted.'' But he's essentially in a spot where he has to prove himself all over again. He's in a contract year and in a completely new offense with different coaches.
Coach Marc Trestman and coordinator/line coach Aaron Kromer are installing a complicated offense. It will feature man- and zone-blocking schemes in the running game and an inside-out protection scheme to keep Cutler upright. Athletic — and consistent — linemen are needed.
Webb has come a long way since being drafted in the seventh round in 2010, but Kromer's approach is definitely different from that of former coordinator Mike Tice. Nonetheless, Webb said he likes it.
''There's more emphasis on technique,'' Webb said, ''[and] knowing that I've played a few years, it's more accountability in how I have to play to the best of my ability every single down and be physical and emphasize the protection on the quarterback."
''Accountability'' is the key word because it has been an up-and-down camp for Webb, Trestman said.
''J'Marcus is day-to-day,'' Trestman said. ''He has some terrific moments. He's got to continue to be consistent. He ascends some days and levels off.''
According to Pro Football Focus' ratings, which general manager Phil Emery said the Bears have used, Webb was tied with guard Lance Louis as the Bears' best lineman last season. But it's easy to remember Webb's two awful outings: Week 2 against the Green Bay Packers, when he allowed two sacks, and Week 11 against the San Francisco 49ers, when he gave up three sacks.
According to PFF, he allowed 30 hurries in 2012 (second-most on the team) but didn't give up a sack in the final six games.
''I don't even look at those numbers,'' Webb said. ''I just kind of play, game-plan and seek out the W's. I do think I played consistent, and that's one of the things I have to do this year to be a really good tackle in the NFL.''
Trestman said Webb has been ''extremely focused'' in the meetings he has attended.
''He's on top of everything, and Aaron and [assistant line coach] Pat [Meyer] are working really hard to continually develop him, and they're excited to,'' Trestman said. ''He's a talented young man, and he's focused and wants to do well.
''These things are day-to-day and week-to-week in terms of progress. He's working at it every day, and we've got some time left to see where this thing takes us as the season gets closer.''
Ask Webb if he thinks he has proved he can be a left tackle in the NFL, and he says, ''I think so, yeah."
He just has to prove his worth on the right side right now.
