Heyneke Meyer is confident the Springboks' lineout will function efficiently despite the unavailability or loss of key second row commanders, with Juandre Kruger set to be thrust into the hot seat.
Statistics show that the bulk of tries in Test matches involving the elite teams come from lineouts in or just outside the opposition's 22m area. This makes lineout success critical to the Springboks' cause.
With Victor Matfield directing matters during his international career it was a facet of play the Springboks consistently dominated. However, with Matfield's comeback from retirement blocked by an IRB ruling that stipulates a player must serve a six-month reintroduction period before they can be considered for Test selection, Meyer had hoped Andries Bekker would fill the void.
However, a chronic back injury then ruled Bekker out of contention for the England series, compounding Meyer's troubles. Kruger looks likely to step up. He trained in the position on Monday afternoon in Durban and Meyer spoke highly of him.
'Three of our locks haven't played a Test. But I'm confident in the ability of [forwards coach] Johann van Graan. Juandre has also taken a lot of leadership responsibility at the Bulls. The lineout session today went very well. It's not the ideal situation but I believe we'll be fine there.'
Matfield's influence on Kruger has been evident (Matfield works as a lineout consultant at the Bulls). No team in the competition has stolen more lineout feeds than the Bulls and none have been as accurate on their own feed. Meyer acknowledged the impact of Matfield's tutelage and said he would place a premium on his views.
'Victor [evolved lineout play], he was world class. I also think that in time he will be a world class coach. I'll definitely make use of his insights.'
Meanwhile, Meyer said he had settled on his match 22, explaining that the composition of that squad had come after careful analysis of performances throughout the Super Rugby campaign.
'I've had almost five months to think about the team and the combinations that would best serve us. There are some guys that performed well in the derbies in the last two weeks, but I have to look at the season as a whole. You can't let emotion influence selections. I'm confident I know who the best 22 is,' he said.
Asked whether the 30-man squad was picked specifically for the England series or whether he was looking longer term, Meyer said: 'There's a balance. The core of players are here for the England series only. But where there was a 50-50 call I went for the youngster who I think in the next year can become great Springboks.
'They need exposure they need to train with the side and work on our defensive structure and the [attacking] game plan. The six youngsters we've brought into the camp [flank Siya Kolisi (Stormers), flank Arno Botha (Bulls), prop Frans Malherbe (Stormers), flank CJ Stander (Bulls), centre Francois Venter (Bulls) and scrumhalf Piet van Zyl (Cheetahs)] have been great and it's only a matter of time before a couple of them step up. That will probably happen on the year-end tour.'

Emergency Medicine
If you are unsure about whether your child's injury or sudden illness needs emergency care, treat it as an emergency. Call 911 immediately.
Why Choose All Children's Pediatric Emergency Center?
Children's health emergencies require special expertise and special treatment. All Children's Hospital has built an Emergency Center around the specific needs of children in emergency medical situations. Some of the distinct advantages of the All Children's Emergency Center are:
- The EC Attending staff consists of Pediatric Emergency Medicine Physicians and General Pediatricians.
- Pediatric Emergency Medicine physicians have three additional years of pediatric training beyond their training in emergency medicine.
- There is at least one Board Certified Pediatric Emergency Medicine physician in the EC at all times, sometimes as many as three.
- In addition to having the skills to make kids feels more secure and at ease in emergency situations, Pediatric Emergency Physicians' additional training means faster diagnosis and treatment.
- All Children's Hospital also uses ONLY Pediatrics Residents - doctors who are training to be pediatricians, rather than general practice residents.
- The EC Nursing staff is specially trained in pediatric emergency nursing.
- The Emergency Center is directly adjacent to the Pediatric Radiology Department. The Radiology department is staffed 24 hours, and films are read by Pediatric Radiologists. Our Radiology department is part of the Image Gently campaign; a widespread effort by radiologists to reduce radiation exposure in children's in many different ways.
- The Emergency Center has a child life specialist who helps make the Emergency Center experience less threatening and stressful for patients and families. Child life specialists use distraction and play to help children cope better with the hospital experience.
The All Children's Hospital Emergency Center treats over 45,000 infants, children, and teenagers a year, and is part of a joint trauma program with Bayfront Medical center. The Emergency Center at All Children's hospital is able to treat all emergency conditions.
When do I need an Emergency Center?
Emergency Centers can treat minor conditions but also deal with more serious injuries and illnesses. The All Children's Hospital Emergency Center is open 24 hours a day. Commonly treated emergency conditions include:
- Severe Asthma
- Concussions
- Several Abdominal Pain
- Seizures
- Severe cuts with excessive bleeding
- Fevers in children under 8 weeks old
- Broken bones
- Sports injuries
Not sick enough for the Emergency Center?
Many of the pediatric specialists on our campus offer urgent visits daily. If you need to see a pediatric specialist at All Children's Hospital immediately, please call your primary care physician and ask them to call the specialist for an urgent appointment.
If you do not have a primary care physician, please contact the All Children's Hospital Physician Referral Service and they will be able to help you find a pediatrician.
Bringing Patients to the Emergency Center
Information for Parents
The All Children's Hospital Emergency Center sees pediatric patients in person at any time of the day without appointments. The staff in the Emergency Center cannot give advice over the phone. Any parent whose child has received treatment in the Emergency Center should feel free to return if they have concerns relating to an illness or injury that was treated in the Emergency Center. Many conditions change over time, and we are always happy to repeat an evaluation or perform further testing when events do not progress as expected.
Referral Information for Primary Care Physicians
All Children's Hospital Emergency Center is happy to take referrals from pediatricians, family physicians and any other physicians in their offices or clinics for patients who need further evaluation and treatment. To transfer a patient to All Children's Hospital, please contact the All Children's Hospital Patient Transfer Center.
Referral Information for Emergency Physicians
All Children's Hospital Emergency Center will accept any patient of an appropriate age from any hospitals. To transfer a patient to All Children's Hospital, please contact the All Children's Hospital Patient Transfer Center.

I am not a cold weather fan.
It is my conviction that God created snow to be admired on calendars and in articles in National Geographic, with cute penguins or arctic foxes or polar bears bouncing around.
To me Dante's image of hell as a giant lake of ice is at least as terrifying as the more traditional images where sinners sit around filling out air conditioner requisitions that are then sent to FEMA where they disappear into an enormous black hole forever.
And so, as you can imagine, I've spent the last few days shivering and staring morosely out the window, wondering why the Sun Journal hasn't yet asked me to cover events in Key West until April.
I mean, darn it, there are important things happening at the Ernest Hemmingway Museum and New Bernians want to know.
I am cold. I step outside and I wince and shiver. And so I am happy.
Because, after all, the human race loves nothing more than complaining about weather.
Have you noticed that? Only really upbeat people move to places that have year-round summer, because it is only the really upbeat people who don't thrive on weather complaints … and it's hard to complain when your Facebook entries are all, "80 degrees and sunny again!" Unless you add the modifier, "How I miss the change of seasons!"
I don't often see statements of how nice the weather is, but in winter and summer there are always thousands out there who are noting the incredible cold or the wasting heat.
The problem is, sometimes, the weather just isn't that helpful. It gets down to 25, which isn't that comfortable, but it's not like April in Bismarck when it's seven below. Or a July day only builds to 85 … it's hard to feel really bad about that.
That's why the FeD-FWAT (Federal Department of Feeling Worse About Things) long ago came up with special laws to help us feel worse — and, therefore, happier — about our weather.
For winter, they invented the "wind chill factor." Before wind chill, a weatherman was forced to tell us, "It's 40 degrees, but it's windy, so cover up."
But through the blessings of the FeD-FWAT, he can puff up his chest and declare, "The temperature says 40 degrees, but with that wind chill it feels like minus 17."
And we all puff up with pride at how we're suffering. We can't wait to tell the world on Facebook.
Come summer, we turn in wind chills (because feeling cooler in summer doesn't give us bragging rights) and we dial up the Humidity Factor, otherwise known as the heat index. Now, a 70-degree day, with a high enough humidity, suddenly feels like 95. Or 110. We can't wait to get online and tell all our northern friends who've been rubbing minus-80 degree wind chills in our face, how this humidity factor is melting steel buildings in the streets.
I've always wondered why we don't just make ourselves more comfortable: let's apply wind chills in the summer ("It's 97 but with that wind chill, it feels like a cool and comfy 75 degrees") and heat indexes in winter ("Yes, the temperatures read 15 out there, but humidity's up so it feels like 55.")
I am convinced we don't because of our love to let others know we're suffering. We're all Aunt Mabel who's always got to bring up her corns and bunions every time you tell her "Hey" on the phone.

The Cutting Board is changing hands.
Don't look for many other changes, said Willard James "Jim" Clark, the Burlington restaurant's new majority partner.
Without disclosing the cost, Clark said he bought majority interest in The Cutting Board from John and Jack Burton.
Clark said Deanne Huber, a former Cutting Board manager, is the sole remaining partner.
Menu favorites will remain, Clark said.
"That's what built the restaurant and that's what we think will carry it forward," he said.
Among menu features he credits with building a loyal base of patrons:
■ A salad bar the restaurant promotes as the best in town.
■ Chuck burgers and a garnish bar.
■ Potato salad made from the same recipe used when the restaurant opened in 1969.
■ A selection of charcoal-grilled steaks.
■ Grilled chicken served with nutmeg sauce served since 1969.
Clark lives in Burlington. He retired from the Guilford County Schools after working there 33 years. He lives in the city's historic district and said his love of tradition is one reason he wants to preserve that at The Cutting Board.
The Cutting Board may be a landmark in the local restaurant scene, but it has had struggles. After starting in the late 1960s on South Church Street as The Patrician, it operated for three decades on Alamance Road, from 1974 to 2004.
A fire that year extensively damaged the building's exterior, putting it out of business for three years. The restaurant reopened in 2007 at 2699 Ramada Road.
Huber said she was manager of the restaurant during its last five years on Alamance Road and manager/part-owner when it reopened on Ramada Road.
She said cooking over charcoal will be reemphasized: "It's something nobody else does."
Cutting Board history
1969: Owned by Maurice Jennings and his family, the restaurant opened on
1974: The restaurant moved to
2004: A fire damaged the restaurant badly enough the owners decided against rebuilding.

The Fiesta Vee 342, which is outfitted from the factory
with ALL of the equipment required for family outings and extended cruises, at a
surprisingly competitive price.This express cruiser from Rinker delivers maximum
space below and many features youd find on a 40-footer. This just-add-water
cruiser comes ready to commission. With a fully equipped cockpit galley, head
with separate shower, cabin with cherry veneer cabinets and flatscreen TV/DVD
player, all standard the 342 is the industry standard in 35 foot cruisers.
What separates this boat from all the others like it on the
market? In the case of Rinkers 34-foot cabin cruiser, the answer came down to
two words, standard equipment. This is clearly reflected in the boats price,
which offers a lot of bang for the buck when compared to other similarly
equipped boats.
Drive Train:
This Fiesta Vee is powered by Twin-5.7 OSI-XDP (320hp each)
Ocean drives. The Volvo Ocean drives are composite drives and are rustproof. The
lower-unit is constructed of composite materials and are lighter and more
durable than standard outdrives
Gen Set:
The most notable (and most expensive) standard feature is
the five kilowatt generator, which is more than adequate to power the air
conditioners, water heater, and galley appliances simultaneously.
The cockpit wet bar includes an icemaker, two cubic foot
refrigerator, and a built in blender. The layout above decks shows careful
consideration as well. The wet bar is oriented diagonally just aft of the helm
on the starboard side, sensibly placed in the center of traffic flow. The Corian
countertop conceals a sink, removable trash container, and a fixed mounted
blender. The icemaker and refrigerator are flush mounted beneath the counter.
The galley countertop is split with the stove slightly
higher than the sink, primarily to allow a taller refrigerator. I found the
difference in height to be practical too, as it raises the stovetop for cooking
and keeps little ones fingers farther from the heat. The built in coffee maker,
at shoulder level behind the sink, is a great addition.Other standard equipment
includes a GPS receiver at the helm, built in coffee maker in the galley, and
even a central vacuum system. Because the equipment list is quite inclusive,
Rinker doesnt offer many options.
The forward Bimini top and enclosure protect the helm seat
and large forward lounge from the elements. The aft Bimini shades the entire aft
deck, including the transom-width lounge. By stowing the aft Bimini against the
radar arch and inserting the filler cushions, the aft lounge becomes a large
The swim platform, accessed via a walkthrough on the
starboard side, includes a recessed telescoping ladder, a fresh water shower,
and plenty of storage.
We can finance this boat at 3.9% for well qualified buyers

Benefits of Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is one of the most widely used metals in the world today due to its tough durability, rust-resistant trait, and aesthetic appeal. In kitchens, stainless steel appliances are popular because of the guaranteed longevity of use and because they're easy to clean. The biggest complaint with stainless steel appliances, like refrigerators or dishwashers, is that they collect smudges, fingerprints, or water spots. These are all easily wiped away with a quick spritz of rubbing alcohol on a clean, soft cloth. Some newer stainless steel appliances even come with a polyester coat for "smudge-proof" convenience.

Shoemaker's Five RBI Helps Baseball Rout Tusculum 22-6
February 23, 2010
MISENHEIMER, N.C. By the end of the third inning on Tuesday afternoon, every Pfeiffer University starter had at-least one hit as the Falcons baseball team routed Tusculum 22-6 at Joe Ferebee Field. Six of the nine starters had three hits or more as the Falcons pounded out 25 total improving to 6-8 overall. The Pioneers fall to 5-6 after surrendering the school-record runs and hits outburst to Pfeiffer.
The Falcons put five runs on the board in each of the first two innings as Myles Pearl (High Point, NC) began the day with a solo-HR to center. This tied the contest at 1-1 after Jared Richmond (Fort Smith, AR) had an RBI double in the top of the first. Later in the first, Eric Shoemaker (Huntersville, NC) delivered a three-run blast to right-center putting the Falcons up four.
In the second, Shoemaker had the big blow again with a two-run single to right. Preston Lyon (Gastonia, NC) and Josh Strickland (Liberty, NC) had the other RBI in the frame with base hits. Will Davis (New London, NC) scored his second RBI of the day in the third bringing in Zack Pou (Stanley, NC).
After an unearned run by Tusculum in the fourth, Pfeiffer exploded for seven more runs widening the margin to 16. Strickland capped off the inning with a two-run double to left with five other Falcons, Pearl, Pou, Lyon, Aarin Sharpe (Winterville, NC) and Davis each brought in another run.
Shoemaker finished the day with five RBI while Lyon, Davis and Strickland each had three. Lyon had four hits and four runs scored in five plate appearances while Sharpe ended up with seven at-bats in eight innings picking up three hits. Nate Grabowski (Pennellville, NY) and Sean Finucane (Cortland, NY) each had a pair of hits for the Pioneers.
The Falcons are back in action at home on Wednesday as Pfeiffer hosts #21 UNC-Pembroke at 2:00 p.m. weather permitting.

There are two ways to extend coding rules :
- Extend an existing Sonar plugin. For example Checkstyle and PMD plugins accept definition of custom checks.
- Embed and execute a code analyzer. For example the Checkstyle plugin configures and executes the library Checkstyle.
Solution 1: Extending Sonar plugins
The following plugins can be extended with new rules :
- Checkstyle (Java)
- PMD (Java)
- Codesniffer and phpmd (PHP)
- C, freeware plugin provided BySonarSource
- Cobol, commercial plugin provided by SonarSource
- FxCop (C#)
- Gendarme (C#)
Checkstyle (Java)
Checkstyle provides extension mechanisms to develop your own coding rules. Tutorials to write such custom rules are available online. You can for instance define your own naming conventions, forbid access to a given API or anything else that is relevant in your context.
Once written, the Checkstyle rules must be listed and packaged in a Sonar plugin. See this example for more information.
PMD (Java)
The PMD coding rules must be packaged in a Sonar plugin. See this example for more information.
It's also possible to define XPath rules directly from UI. Search for the rule "XPath rule template" in the administration console and copy it to create a new rule :
Read the plugin documentation.
Read the plugin documentation.
Read the plugin documentation.
C# FxCop and Gendarme plugins
Read the plugin documentation.
Solution 2: Executing a code analyzer
A code analyzer plugin executes the following steps :
- Register definitions of coding rules, when the server is started.
- Optionally define some templates of quality profiles, when the server is started.
- Analyze source code and inject results in database
1. Registering coding rules
This step relates to the extension point org.sonar.api.rules.RuleRepository. A RuleRepository defines a set of coding rules. It usually loads data from a XML file :
The XML file is available in the plugin classloader and looks like :
2. Defining quality profiles
This step relates to the extension point org.sonar.api.profiles.ProfileDefinition. Profiles provided by plugins are registered at server startup and can't be edited by users :
3. Analyzing source code
This step relates to the extension point org.sonar.api.batch.Sensor.

His sons, Jeffrey and Jay Cooper, hardly needed a sales pitch to join up. They followed their father's example of military life.
"They grew up with it. The Army, to them, was very normal. It was their own decision," said Cooper, who at 56 has been told he's the oldest Army recruiter in the county.
The Mill Creek man said he asked his sons, both Jackson High School graduates, to think about their choice, "to make sure it's what they wanted to do."
"I didn't do their paperwork. My colleagues put their packets together," he said. "But of course I'm their recruiter. I'm their dad. They're the only two sons I have."
His older son took an uncommon route to the Army. Jeffrey Cooper, 22, served in the Coast Guard Reserve. In May, he graduated with a bachelor's degree from the California Maritime Academy. "He saw the light and found the Army," the father joked about Jeffrey, who is about to leave for the Army's Officer Candidate School at Fort Benning, Ga.

Before this Veterans Day weekend, Douglas Cooper reflected on steering other people's sons and daughters into the Army or Army Reserve. He has shared with parents that his own children are serving.
"It's very rewarding," he said. "I like talking to young people in high school. And I talk to a lot of college graduates, people really struggling to find their places. Many of the parents, I think they're surprised to meet me. I show them pictures of my sons."
Cooper said he sometimes asks people to mentally "change the channel" if their image of Army life is "going down the streets of Baghdad looking for bad guys."
He tells parents there's "a whole other Army Reserve, it isn't all that shock wave depicted on TV."
"I start with my Army story, where it's taken me in my life," he said.
His military duty, some of which he called "back-office paperwork," was punctuated by a long civilian career. Cooper joined the Army in 1976 after high school in Pennsylvania. He was an active-duty soldier until 1980.
Trained by the Army as a lineman, he worked for AT&T, which later became Comcast. He stayed 29 years with the communications company, which transferred him from Philadelphia to Seattle. As a manager of technical operations with Comcast, he was responsible for the city of Seattle's cable networks.
While working and raising his boys, Cooper was also in the Army Reserve. "Most of my career in the military was as a reservist," he said. In 2009, he was mobilized as a reservist to teach classes "to get everybody ready for deployment."
After retiring from Comcast, Cooper looked into the Army's Active Guard Reserve program. Now with active-duty status, he works full time recruiting for the Army National Guard and Reserve.
He visits campuses, including Edmonds Community College. At Jackson High School, he taught a short course covering America's founding fathers.
"I believe I am the oldest recruiter in the U.S. Army," Cooper said. Mandatory retirement age in the Army Reserve is 62.
Cooper sees military experience as a solid first step in life.
"Raising your children, they pass through phases -- infants to toddlers to adolescents. The hardest part you don't see coming is when they get out of high school. If you don't get a good solid step right out of school, you can really sink," he said. "With the military, they've got that piece of concrete, that critical first step."
The Reserves also help young people pay for college. One memory that stands out is talking with a young man who was working in pouring rain as a roadside sign-holder.
"He was dressed up in a Statue of Liberty outfit," Cooper said. "I pulled over, introduced myself, and said I wanted to tell him about the Army Reserves," Cooper said. "He is no longer holding that sign."
Cooper said the man's goal had been to attend culinary school, which he is now doing while serving in the U.S. Army Reserve.
Along with the benefits of military service come risks. Ours is still a nation at war.
"It's something to take seriously," Cooper said. "But you're not walking around with a sense of fear. You believe in the American way of life. It's an honor supporting our beliefs and values. I look back on my life, I never regretted it."

RYAN VREDE reports on the Chiefs' 29-22 victory over the Brumbies secured through a Jackson Willison try at the death.
It was by no means convincing but the Chiefs continue their early-season march, giving further fuel to the growing belief that they will be among the teams involved in the business end of the tournament. To progress beyond the play-offs they need to exorcise the demons that sporadically tempt them to abandon a balanced approach in favour of crowd-pleasing panache.
The Chiefs at times resembled the rudderless side they were last year, shifting the ball laterally without any platform to do so effectively. Where purpose had characterised their attacks prior to this match, there was too much hope of individual brilliance, which was in short supply. It was no surprise that both their tries were built on pragmatic phase play.
Credit to the Brumbies for their structure, accuracy and power on defence – hallmarks of a Jake White team. The pressure they were able to exert in this regard contributed significantly to a string of handling errors the Chiefs committed, although a number of their cough-ups were simply schoolboy.
The Brumbies should have been ahead at the break (tied 9-9) having shown greater composure on attack but lacking the killer blow in the red zone. Their phase play and rolling mauls troubled the Chiefs, who lacked the gainline physicality to stifle the former and the organisational skill to quell the latter. Their lack of punch in the tackle compromised their breakdown contest and resulted in them conceding a string of breakdown penalties, which Christian Lealiifano duly banked.
He traded three pointers with Aaron Cruden, the flyhalves kicking five apiece to lock the scores at 15-all going into the final quarter. However, you sensed that the Chiefs had the edge. With their cavalier spirit reigned in slightly they were able to exert pressure in a manner they never were in the first half. They worked through phases and rewarded when Sona Taumalolo drove over from close range. Cruden converted to give his side the lead with seven minutes to play.
But then the Chiefs showed their tactically naive side once more, attempting to run themselves out of their territory instead of punting deep and forcing the Brumbies to take risks. They turned over possession and with four minutes to play Brumbies lock Sam Carter burrowed over the whitewash. Lealiifano held his nerve to level the scores once more from a difficult angle.
But the Chiefs redeemed themselves immediately. They depleted the Brumbies' defensive line through multiple phases before shifting the ball to Willison for the match-winning score.
