Yahoo! (YHOO) has had countless blog posts and tech articles written about what it needs to do to fix itself or why it's unfixable.
Why would Yahoo!'s board pay someone like Heidrick and Struggles to go out and try and find a qualified CEO when so many able candidates are writing for MSN Money who could easily slip into the corner cubicle in Sunnyvale?
There is a "lamestream" tech media narrative that exists about Yahoo! It used to be so simple:
"Jerry Yang is terrible." He's no longer there in any capacity, so you can't carp about him anymore.
"The board is hopeless." It's totally turned over and the most egregious member of the board – Roy Bostock – has been exiled.
"Who uses Yahoo! anymore?" Well, 700 million people still do every month and, since AOL (AOL) has tripled in the last year, why would anyone pay any attention to this argument? Old websites have nothing to do whether the stock is a good investment or not. Do people use AOL more than Yahoo!?
There's still one big criticism that I still hear people mouth about Yahoo!: "Its culture is broken/toxic" or something along the lines of "It's been a losing company for so long, so how do you turn it around?"
This point is irrelevant. In fact, I'd argue that – in 2 months on the job – Marissa Mayer's already "fixed" the culture.
Say what?
Yahoo! never really had a culture problem. It had a screwed up board trickling down a bunch of dumb decisions including the CEOs they hired. They had a leadership vacuum from the corner office that only really changed in the few weeks when Ross Levinsohn took over as interim CEO and has now noticeably changed with Mayer. They had a problem with keeping all their best people and seeing a high rate of talent get raided out of the company including Jeff Weiner at LinkedIn (LNKD). They had a bloated cost structure with too many people.
So, that culture problem, such as it was, is now fixed.
The best people at Yahoo! — and there are still lots, always have been — feel like someone who finally "gets it" is in charge and won't tolerate a second rate effort. Therefore, they're not going to leave. Even though Ross Levinsohn was well-liked and well-respected, Marissa Mayer is almost supremely respected – and not just inside the company but by all the prestigious gatekeepers and opinion leaders of Silicon Valley. The opinions of the latter groups are important because it's very reassuring for those inside the company.
For the first time since I've closely followed the company in the last 7 years, there's a real sense of hope and, yes, even a little self-confidence.
I think that confidence is the biggest thing for talent retention. It's more important than money and stock options for a lot of folks. However, if we're talking about perks, the free food and iPhones are big. But even when it comes to stock options, which stock has a better chance of tripling in the next few years: Yahoo!, Facebook (FB), or Google (GOOG)? I would argue Yahoo!
Yahoo!'s culture isn't broken. You want to know a screwed-up culture? AOL. You talk a place with fiefdoms. There are the old AOL folks, the new Google folks who came in under the wing of Tim Armstrong, and the HuffPo folks. None of them trusted any of the others. The place lacked hope and was rife with back-biting – especially last year when the stock dropped below $15.
Yet, even with all that culture mess, the stock has still tripled in the last year. The bad blood is still there of course. I think it's still a pretty dysfunctional place, but people are happy with the jump in the stock price – most especially Armstrong – and that can cover up a lot of bad culture dynamics for a while.
My point is that this culture thing is a total non-issue for Yahoo! They've solved it. Marissa's beloved. Her people will take a bullet for her.
Yahoo! still needs to refresh all its products, get display ads moving up again, get a mobile strategy, buy new companies without wasting cash, and return capital to shareholders. It's still a tough road.
But it's nowhere near as difficult as some are making it out. And it's not conditional on Mayer fixing the culture.

100 Easy Ways To Get Your Kids Reading
Everyone hopes their child will grow up loving books. In these busy times, though, it can be difficult to find time to share your love of books with your kids and help them become better readers. A Busy Mom's Guide: 100 Easy Ways To Get Your Kids Reading has tips for busy moms (and dads!) to get their kids reading and enjoying it, starting right from babyhood. Check it out from the Parenting section today.
An Online Treasure for Readers
Every Monday morning, my email contains a special book. The email book club sends out a few pages every day in email. By the end of the week, you have read two to three chapters of a new book. You can then decide whether you want to check it out at the library or purchase it. It's a great way to discover new authors and genres. There are twelve categories from which to choose - pick one or all of them, including fiction, audio, romance, teen, good news, thrillers, classics and more. Your only requirement is an email account. The next Monday, it starts all over again with new books. What a great idea! This service is sponsored by the Friends of the Canton Public Library and is free to our patrons. Just log onto our web site at www.cantonpl.org, go to the column on the left and click on services. Next, click on book clubs and scroll down to email book club.
President's Speech to Students
President Obama addressed students today in a back-to-school speech focused on staying in school and trying your best. He encouraged them to set their own goals including "spending time each day reading a book." As a new school year begins, Raising Bookworms, can help parents instill the love of reading in their child. Author Emma Walton Hamilton also has written 16 books for children with her mother, Julie Andrews.
Library Reading Program Receives Funding Boost From Target Store Grant
The Canton Public Library is the recipient of a $3,000 Target store Early Childhood Reading Grant. Money from the grant, combined with funds from the Friends of the Canton Public Library, will be used to sponsor Family Reading Nights at the Canton Public Library.
Librarian Anne Cnockaert applied for the grant on behalf of the library and helped to create the Family Reading Night program, which will start in October and run through June, 2010.
"This program encourages the whole family to become involved in reading," says Cnockaert. "There will be a themed storytime, then families can complete a craft and have a snack related to the story. The family will receive a free book that they can read together and take home to keep."

reading levels for kids
A lot of people think that it's important or positive for a child to read "above grade level", but does it really matter? Is it even good for a child to read books that were intended for an older audience? Many literacy experts believe that it doesn't matter, and that it isn't necessarily good - a child should read books that make for a pleasurable, positive reading experience.

Put a Smile on a Grey Day
Grey weather getting you down? One of my favorite books with some good rainy day chapters is Ramona the Pest by Beverly Cleary. Curl up with a good Ramona story, check out Ramona online, or if you're really feeling adventurous, grab your galoshes and raincoat and splash in a few puddles!
Hurry...Reading Month is Ending Soon!
Donalyn Miller, Teacher Magazine blogger and author, couldn't find a book that demonstrated her love for reading to her students so she decided to write one herself. It's a shame we aren't born with the desire to love books. We have to discover the world of books on our own, or from parents and teachers. Many of us have cherished childhood memories of visiting the library and happily leaving with an armful of books.

Adrian R. Krainer
Ph.D., Harvard University, 1986
|Our DNA carries the instructions to manufacture all the molecules needed by a cell. After each gene is copied from DNA into RNA, the RNA message is "spliced" - an editing process involving precise cutting and pasting. I am interested in how splicing normally works, how it is altered in genetic diseases and cancer, and how we can correct these defects for therapy.
Adrian Krainer's lab studies the mechanisms of RNA splicing, ways in which they go awry in disease, and the means by which faulty splicing can be corrected. In particular, they study splicing in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a neuromuscular disease that is the leading genetic cause of death in infants. In SMA, a gene called SMN2 is spliced incorrectly, making it only partially functional. The Krainer lab is able to correct this defect using a potentially powerful therapeutic approach. It is possible to stimulate protein production by altering mRNA splicing through the introduction of chemically modified pieces of RNA called antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) into the spinal cords of mice. Previously, using ASOs in mice carrying a transgene of human SMN2, they developed a model for SMA using a technique they called TSUNAMI (shorthand for targeting splicing using negative ASOs to model illness). This year, they used the method to develop a mouse model for adult onset SMA, and they are currently working to develop models for the study of other diseases caused by splicing defects, including familial dysautonomia. The Krainer lab has also worked to shed light on the role of splicing proteins in cancer. They have found that the splicing factor SRSF1 functions as an oncogene stimulating the proliferation of immortal cells. This year, they were surprised to find that SRSF1 can actually stop cell growth by stabilizing a powerful tumor suppressor protein, called p53—suggesting that the cell is responding to the aberrant SRSF1 activity. This discovery offers insight into how tumors arise and the pathways that lead to transformation.
Fregoso, O.I., Das, S., Akerman, and M., Krainer, A.R. 2013. Splicing-factor oncoprotein SRSF1 stabilizes p53 via RPL5 and induces cellular senescence. Mol Cell 50: 56–66.

Zimbabwe has lost 4 989 548 hectares of wooded land to various causes inspired by both human and natural factors between 1992 and 2008, an official with the Forestry Commission has said. In an interview on the sidelines of a Regional Workshop on Reduction of Deforestation and Degradation in Kariba last week, Mr Member Mushongahande said Zimbabwe had the highest level of deforestation that was pegged at 1,6 percent per year while Malawi had one percent with Zambia experiencing the least at between 0,3 and 0,4 percent per year.
The workshop, dubbed the "Regional Workshop on REDD+ Readiness in Miombo Woodland Countries" drew participants from Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
The participants sought to find ways of containing deforestation, environmental degradation and strategies of producing and harnessing carbon for commercial purposes in the Miombo eco-region.

Thermal Ceramics Smoothset
I have read alot about different mortars but have only found one reference to using smoothset, any thoughts?? I can source it locally and it seems to be less expensive than HS50 although still higher than making your own
Re: Thermal Ceramics Smoothset
I used the thermal ceramics brand refractory mortar. I have no idea if the bag said "smoothset," however. If it's the same product, I found it easy to work with. I did seem to have more cracks than the average build, but not very big ones, and that could have been entirely my skill with mortar and the arid Phoenix conditions.
Re: Thermal Ceramics Smoothset
I'm using the same stuff from the same place that Nikki used, and it does say "smoothset" on the bag. I've barely started, and I have no experience to compare it to, but it seems to be ok.
Re: Thermal Ceramics Smoothset
I just purchased this smooth set down in tucson. How did it end up working out with the mortar.
Re: Thermal Ceramics Smoothset
My oven has been working well for over a year now. I call the thermal ceramics a win.
Re: Thermal Ceramics Smoothset
Thanks, That is what I purchased and Just wanted to make sure
Re: Thermal Ceramics Smoothset
Been working in my oven since last summer, so 2 hairless thumbs up from me!

Rod Stewart's New Album 'Time' Dropping On May 7
Rod Stewart's first album of new material in almost 20 years, Time, will be released on May 7.
The LP include the singles "She Makes Me Happy" (out today) and "Finest Woman" (out April 8) among its singles. Stewart produced eleven of the album's twelve tracks, and three additional songs will be available with album pre-orders on iTunes, including the Stewart-penned "Legless."
Rod, who previously acknowledged that he has struggled to write songs over the last twenty years, explained that working on his recent autobiography renewed his songwriting spark:
"Something about that process of reviewing my life for the book reconnected me. I was getting up in the middle of the night and scrambling for a pen to write things down, which has never happened to me."
Stewart kicks off a European tour in June.

The Formula One season is ramping up once again, and these are the first snaps to emerge of Kimi Räikkönen's return.
The Finn was pictured testing a 2010-spec Renault R30 at Valencia yesterday, completing the first of a two-day run ahead of his season debut later this year.
So what where his first impressions after a two-year absence? "There is a lot to get used to," he said, somewhat obviously. "Knowing when to turn, brake and when to get on the power didn't take long at all. Hopefully we'll be fast straight away and it's going to be an interesting season."
Kimi Räikkönen tests in Valencia
An interesting season indeed. Kimi brings with him a career record of 16 pole positions, 18 wins, and 62 podium finishes, and it means six F1 world champions will line up on the 2012 grid (Vettel, Button, Hamilton, Kimi, Alonso and Schuey).
It should hopefully mean less of a procession for the young German who also heads up our Top Gear F1 leaderboard.

Pizza Training
New to the site! Great site by the way, I'm looking into purchasing and putting together an oven with my father. In one of your previous threads you mentioned that their were schools for pizza training here in the US. I live near NY city, can you make any recommendations or give me any information about this.
Welcome aboard. You are definitely going to enjoy the whole process -- the oven, the cooking, the fire and the food. It's great.
Here's what I know about brick oven cooking schools.
You can go to Italy:
Enzo Coccia
Pizza Consulting.it
The trainers' trainer. Everyone says Enzo is excellent.
Scuola Italiana Pizzaioli
Via Sansonessa, 49
30021 Caorle (VE)
Tel. 0421 83178
Email info@scuolapizza.
I talked with Tony Gemingnani, who took classes there and said it was good.
Pamela Sheldon Johns has a school in Montepuciano for homeowners and has a brick oven.
There is a school in Paestum, an hour south of Naples that has brick oven cooking lessons as part of their regular school. They produce buffalo milk for cheese. I have heard good things about the classes.
In California, there is the VPN school in Southern California. I know someone who attended and can answer questions on that off-line.
In NorCal, we will be running cooking class from our demo kitchen in Healdsburg starting this spring. The classes are targeted at home owners, not professional chefs.
Does anyone else know of a good school on the east coast?
Perhaps someone can contact us about setting one up.
I grew up in Santa Rosa, and my Mom was from an old Italian family in Healdsburg!
I'm not to far away, in the San Jose area...
Looking forward to meeting you
It's a small world. We went the other way, moving to Healdsburg from Palo Alto. Many of the Healdsburg Italian families came from Lucca and still have relatives they meet there.
We will be ready to host people for cooking in about four weeks. The oven is functioning wonderfully, and we are finishing up the outdoor cabinets, work surfaces, etc. The rain isn't helping. A number of people have come by to see the installation work in progress. We have a Casa90, a Calore fireplace and nice new poured concrete work surfaces. The outdoor kitchen is set in a small vineyard.
Drop me a private email and we can talk about dates. You can come up and see family and cook some great pizza.

Eddie Murphy to return to stand-up comedy
24 May 2010
Eddie Murphy says he is planning to return to stand-up comedy again after staying away from it for 20 years.
"Within the last six months or so I started getting an itch to do it again. I started writing stuff... I was like, 'I could go and do 15, 20 minutes right now.' Maybe in a couple of months I'll start working again'," imdb.com quoted Murphy as saying. "But it'll take a year before I'm ready to go on the road... It's gonna take at least a year to get the rust off; 20 years of rust," he added.
Before he became an in-demand film star, Murphy was one of the world's top stand-up comedians.

Iraqi telecom Asiacell hopes to raise $1.3 billion
BAGHDAD (AP) - One of Iraq's three telecommunications providers is looking to raise $1.3 billion through what is likely to be the country's biggest stock offering yet.
Asiacell said on Tuesday it plans to offer 67.5 billion shares for at least 22 Iraqi dinars, or just under 2 cents, apiece when it launches the initial public offering beginning next month.
The shares being offered represent a quarter of Asiacell's total share capital. The Gulf state of Qatar's Qatar Telecom owns 53.9 percent of the company.
The Iraq Stock Exchange announced the upcoming IPO earlier this month. Tuesday's statement offered the first pricing details for the share floatation.
Asiacell competes against Zain Iraq, part of Kuwait's Zain, and Korek, an affiliate of France Telecom.

Should U.S. reinstate funding for UNESCO? Listeners weigh in

BAGHDAD: Shootings and bombings in central and north Iraq on Tuesday left seven people dead, including a judge and the bodyguard of an MP, security and medical officials said.
In the main northern city of Mosul, Judge Abbas al-Abadi was gunned down as he was leaving his home, police First Lieutenant Mohammed al-Juburi and Doctor Tareq al-Naimi at Mosul hospital said.
Near Mosul, 350 kilometres (220 miles) north of Baghdad, in Tal Afar, two members of Iraqi President Jalal Talabani's Patriotic Union of Kurdistan party were killed when a roadside bomb struck their car, according to police First Lieutenant Abid Ghiyab and Ahmed Abdulghaffur, a doctor at the town hospital.
Also north of the capital in the disputed city of Kirkuk, a car bomb at around 8:00 pm (1700 GMT) near a police vehicle killed two policemen and wounded four others, a security official said.
Doctor Othman Ahmed at the city's main hospital confirmed the toll.
Just south of Baghdad near the town of Mussayeb a bodyguard of lawmaker Ali Alaq was ambushed by gunmen who killed him before fleeing the scene, local police and medics said.
Dhia Konein had been driving his personal car when he was shot dead.
In the capital itself, gunmen opened fire on the car of police Brigadier General Shaaker Mahmud in east Baghdad. A security official said the vehicle's driver was killed, while a medic said one person was killed and another wounded, but did not give details.
Violence in Iraq is down from its peak in 2006 and 2007, but deadly attacks remain common.

mid-14c., from Latin concupiscentia "eager desire," from concupiscens, present participle of concupiscere, inceptive of concupere "to be very desirous of," from com-, intensive prefix (see com-), + cupere "to long for" (see cupidity). Used in Vulgate to translate Greek epithymia.
desire, Rom. 7:8 (R.V., "coveting"); Col. 3:5 (R.V., "desire"). The "lust of concupiscence" (1 Thess. 4:5; R.V., "passion of lust") denotes evil desire, indwelling sin.

Randall Brenes scored five minutes into added time to rescue a draw for Costa Rica in their CONCACAF Gold Cup Group A clash with El Salvador in North Carolina on Thursday.
The teams came into the match on the back of polar opposite results - Costa Rica despatching Cuba 5-0 and El Salvador hammered by the same margin by Mexico.
But that meant little when Rodolfo Zelaya put El Salvador in front on the stroke of half-time with a fine free-kick.
Brenes entered the fray in the 80th minute and there were only seconds left from six extra minutes when he fired low past Miguel Montes.
The Ticos improved to four points, while El Salvador have one point and need to beat Cuba in its final group game to have a realistic chance of advancing.

Roses have their own language. Depending on the color, the arrangement, and the occasion, they can be used to convey so many different things. Of course, their biggest statement is romance. There is nothing more romantic that the scent, the color, and the sheer luxury of roses. When you propose to your love, use the language of flowers to say I love you, and ask for her hand. Here are a few great ideas to get you started.
A Bouquet in the Crowd
For a marriage proposal in a crowded venue, she can gather flowers as she walks to you. Give individual roses to people in the crowd, and make sure they each hand her a flower as she walks by. By the time she reaches you, her arms will be full of a gorgeous bouquet.
Bouquet of Roses Forest
A room full of roses can be a lovely fairytale location for a proposal. Create a "forest" of roses by decorating a beautiful room with as many bouquets in vases as will fit and look beautiful. Use candles and other decorations to create focal points around the room.
Rose Petals
There are several lovely ways to use rose petals in your proposal. For example, as she enters a room, arrange for rose petals to gently cascade over her, bathing her in their aroma, and beauty. She will feel like royalty. Another sweet idea is to make a heart of rose petals on her bed. You can also fill a bathtub with water, and float rose petals in the tub. Be creative, and you are sure to delight her.
If you are planning to propose but aren't sure how to plan a public or private event, contact The Heart Bandits today for personalized advice and proposal planning unique to you and your partner. If you are searching for an alternative to the traditional bulky engagement ring box, go to www.ringstash.com and find the ultimate thin box solution!

hi richard,
for what it's worth, i never ever use MS office. never have, never
will. however, i purchased both codeweavers plugin and office bundle,
simply to help support the wine effort. considering that their new code
goes back into the GPL'd wine project, i consider the money spent as a
donation to the wine project.
like how i purchased mandrake for a couple of friends to help support
mandrake, even though i would never use mandrake myself. i guess my
money didn't help mandrake very much though. :(
btw, crossover plugin is *excellent*. i'm *very* happy with it.

DEPOSITS of calcium that form in diseased heart valves are in some cases actually bone tissue, according to research presented this week at an American College of Cardiology meeting in Atlanta, Georgia.
In the US alone, about 71 000 people each year have heart valves replaced because they have become so calcified that they can no longer flex and control blood flow. Doctors have always believed calcium was deposited on the valves in much the same way that limescale builds up in a pipe carrying hard water.
But Emile Mohler, a cardiologist at the University of Pennsylvania Medical Center in Philadelphia, says that in many cases the truth about the deposits is more complex. "It's not just calcium. It's organised bone. It looks just like bone you would see in an arm or a leg," he says.
Mohler looked at 228 heart valves removed from 206 patients over three years. ...

HONOLULU- On Sunday, January 27 at 7 p.m. in Hawaii, a school-record tying six former Vols will take part in the NFL Pro Bowl, broadcasted live on NBC.
The six Vols chosen to play, as announced on December 26, will actually play in the all-star game Sunday.
Strong safety Eric Berry, punter Dustin Colquitt, running back Arian Foster, quarterback Peyton Manning, linebacker Jerod Mayo and tight end Jason Witten. Five of the six: Berry, Colquitt, Foster, Manning and Mayo have been selected as starters.
With six selections, Tennessee is tied for having the most former players of any school in the nation. Along with the Vols, Georgia and Miami (Fla.) also have six products in the Pro Bowl.
Eric Berry was selected to his second Pro Bowl, also making the trip to Hawaii back in 2011.
In his return to the grid iron after suffering a torn ACL in 2011, Eric Berry finds himself back in the Pro Bowl as an NFC starter. The Georgia native started and played all 16 games at strong safety for the Chiefs this season making 86 tackles, 73 unassisted. While also tacking on 10 passes defended and an interception.
- KCChiefs.com:  Pro Bowl Wired: Eric Berry
Dustin Colquitt is making his first Pro Bowl appearance of his NFL career after a record setting season with the Chiefs.
Colquitt set a single-season franchise record with 45 punts inside the 20-yard line. Colquitt set a new NFL mark for most punts inside the 20-yard line in a single season passing Arizona P Dave Zastudil's 2012 mark of 44 with a booming 55 yard punt to the Denver 15-yard line on the Chiefs last possession.
In 2012, Colquitt punted 83 times for 3,887 yards, marking the seventh-consecutive time in his eight-year career that he has punted for more than 3,000 yards in a single season. He has a gross average of 46.8 yards per kick, the highest gross average of his career, and carries a 40.8 net average, a career best. To go along with his 45 punts inside the 20, he has seven touchbacks and a season-long punt of 71 yards.
Arian Foster is appearing in his third-straight Pro Bowl.
The four-year NFL vet tallied 1,424 yards rushing during the regular season, the second highest of his career, playing and starting all 16 games in 2012.
Foster also rushed for 15 touchdowns, leading all NFL rushers and caught another two. His 17 total touchdowns is also an NFL best. Foster is sixth in the NFL with his 1,424 yards and second in the AFC behind Jamaal Charles.
In the postseason, Foster became the first player to run for 100 yards in each of his first three playoff games in NFL history. The VFL gained 140 rushing yards on 32 carries with a touchdown in the Wild Card game against Cincinnati. He also had eight catches for 34 yards to gain 174 total yards.
Foster's 2012 postseason total included 230 rushing yards, 97 receiving yards and three touchdowns.
Peyton Manning will take part in his 12th Pro Bowl in 15 years playing in the NFL.
Manning's 12 Pro Bowl selections are the most for a quarterback in NFL history. He is also the first quarterback to make a Pro Bowl one year removed from missing a full season due to injury or illness.
Manning also set some NFL records in 2012. Against Houston at the beginning of the season, Manning recorded his 64th career 300+ yard game, an NFL best passing Dan Marino in the record books. During the season Manning notched nine 300+ yard game, tying his career best and setting a Bronco record, while extending his NFL record to 72 games.
In the Divisional Playoffs, Manning's Broncos fell to the Ravens in double overtime. Manning finished with a 28-for-43, 290 yard effort tossing three touchdowns but also two interceptions, one of which led to Baltimore's game winning field goal in double-overtime.
Manning moved into a tie with Dan Marino for the fourth-most playoff touchdowns thrown (32) and his three TD effort marked the 10th time this season that he has accomplished the feat. His three touchdowns also tied a Broncos single-playoff game record set by John Elway who did it three times during his Denver career, the last time coming in 1994.
Jerod Mayo has earned his second Pro Bowl honor and will return to the all-star game for the first time since 2010.
Mayo led the AFC in tackles for the majority of the season and for a few weeks was the NFL's leading tackler. Mayo, who played and started all 16 games at middle linebacker for the Patriots went over the century mark for the fourth time in his five year NFL career and finished with a team and AFC-leading 147 tackles. He ranks fourth in the NFL.
Mayo also tacked on three sacks, three passes defended, four forced fumbles (a career-high after tallying four through his first four seasons) and an interception. Mayo is hailed as the quarterback of the Patriots defense and has led the team to its fourth-straight AFC East divisional championship and fourth-straight playoff appearance in his five seasons with the Patriots.
In the 2012 playoffs, Mayo notched 15 tackles and forced a fumble against Houston and Baltimore.
Jason Witten will return to Hawaii for the eighth time in his storied 10 year career in the NFL.
Witten rebounded nicely, from a lacerated spleen suffered during the preseason, and finished the year playing and starting in all 16 games on the year, making a NFL record for a tight end 110 catches for 1,039 yards and three touchdowns. It was the fourth time in his career that he broke the 1,000-yard barrier.
Jason Witten also hit the 800 career catch mark in the final game of the regular season, just the third tight end and 26th player in the history of the NFL to do so, and the fastest. Witten accomplished the feat in just 159 games. With 806 career catches, he is just 10 away from passing Shannon Sharpe (815, 1990-2003) for second place on the All-Time NFL receptions by tight ends list.
He also set a new Cowboys' record for career catches passing Michael Irvin (750) earlier in the season.
Witten also became the second Tennessee product with 100 catches in a season joining Carl Pickens, who had 100 catches in 1996 with the Cincinnati Bengals. Witten now holds the record for most catches by a former Vol in a season with 103.
In a tough loss to the New York Giants on Oct. 28, Witten broke his own Cowboys receiving record and set a league record for tight ends with 18 catches for 167 yards. Only Brandon Marshall, Terrell Owens and Tom Fears have ever caught as many or more passes at any position.

Windhoek — Construction is about start on three bridges across the notoriously dangerous gravel road linking Okahandja to Ovitoto, after a brief on-site turning of the sod ceremony on Tuesday.
The Roads Authority (RA) contracted the Roads Contractor Company (RCC) for the N$63-million project, which is expected to create 150 jobs for people living in the vicinity of the road.
The work will include erecting 12 small drainage structures at the Bobbejaan, Niehus and Swakopmund river bridges. The drainage structures are an attempt to minimise dangers posed during the rainy season and create much-needed and improved accessibility between Ovitoto and Okahandja.
"During the rainy season, the Ovitoto settlement is cut off from essential services at Okahandja, thus, successful construction of these bridges and 12 other drainage structures will minimise the dangers posed during that time," said the Minister of Information and Communication Technology Joel Kapanda during the ground-breaking ceremony.
The construction of the bridges is also expected to improve the level of service delivery and social benefits, as well as uplift the living conditions of residents of the Ovitoto community and surroundings areas.
"Government has embarked on this project to improve accessibility and abate the threat to the Ovitoto community and surrounding areas of being cut off from essential services due to floods. Lack of mobility during the rainy season has affected both human life and activities at Ovitoto, including the delivery of services, such as medication to the clinic, food to the school, services in Okahandja for the sick and elderly, attendance at schools and access by tourists," said Kaapanda. The event also marked the second phase of the Ovitoto Development Committee's road infrastructure improvement programme to upgrade the gravel road to bitumen standard.
"The project will result in enhanced access and boost marketing for available products and integrate rural settlements into the mainstream economy. This is also in line with Vision 2030, which envisages a fully industrialised Namibia with enhanced road networks by 2030," said patron of the project Eku Tjitendero.

President Obama campaigned in Ohio on Tuesday. His message was personal and aimed at college students. The president said he too had been saddled with student loans, and that he understands the burden and the value of education. He also criticized his Republican rivals Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan for supporting a budget that would make deep cuts in Pell Grants and other programs important to young people. Melissa Block talks with Scott Horsley.

hello lugod,
i just wanted to tell everyone that tonight's meeting will be a real
treat. francois gouget from crossover will be talking to lugod.
froncios is with "codeweavers", the company that is using wine to bring
certain technologies to linux when microsoft based companies refuse to
support linux. for example, crossover office will let you run MS office
on your linux box (if that's really your desire). their crossover
plugin supports browser plugins that haven't been ported to linux based
the thing that makes it noteworthy is the packaging. zero set up on the
user's part, i believe. you install the thing and it does it's job.
not like wine, which _can_ take a bit of fiddling around with (although
that's beginning to change too).
in fact, i believe francois is a wine developer, and may talk about the
wine/rewind split over licensing, which is a very bitter tale and
somewhat of an embarrasment to everyone involved.
so for anyone who has an interest in running windows apps on linux, or
has an interest in wine, or has interest in the wine/rewind/winex
debacle, this meeting should be a very good one to attend.
this guy is a hardcore programmer for wine and codeweavers, so bring
your questions with you to the meeting. :)

Our Bronze Cerridwen Statue depicts Cerridwen, Mother of Taliesin. Cauldron of Inspiration. Great earth goddess associated with the eternal cycle of life, death, and rebirth, worshiped at harvest time. She tends her cauldron of wisdom and inspiration.
Her totem animal is the white sow and she is a shapeshifter, able to be seen as a greyhound, an otter, a hawk, and a black hen. She was mother to the great Celtic bard Taliesin.
Her herbal potions bring forth initiation and transformation, just as tiny grains become vast fields of wheat that then transform into the bread that sustains life.
