Another alternative could be to remove the K/D all together, that way nobody knows what their stat is and just plays the game for fun.
When I bail... I'm usually host and cannot hit the ocean falling out of the Titanic.
Never gonna not have KDR... but people do need to just have more fun.

when playing league with one or two friends, and your team mate quites the game, before it even starts, the odds of you winning that game are very low. The people who leave league just becuase some people one on the other team may have a higher rank should have more done to them than just 5 Min probation.

Well COD multiplayer needs to have some type of competition or people start relying on things like KDR to prove they are better than someone else.

I think there needs to be something. There are days I can't finish a match because the entire team quits, players just bail when they're not have an amazing game. That's not fair to other team

A system should be implement where a ranks's worth of XP is taken when a player backs out 2 times in a specific period of time. To make this work there should also be a thing where you can back out of a game within the first 30 seconds of joining and no penalties for anything should be given. ITs stupid if i join a game where my teams getting destroyed and leaving the game gives me a loss.

Simply show how many times they "Rage Quit" on there public profile.
17. Re: What should be done about people who rage quite or dashboard?mp5k-master Jun 9, 2013 8:29 AM (in response to fletch796)
As much as we hate to admit it, there are times when rage quiting almost isn't a nonsense move.
For example, say you join a game of TDM, where there's under a minute left, and your team is down 68-4. Meanwhile, the other team has a brutal spawn trap in place, in addition to a VTOL, stealth chopper, and swarm all at the same time. You can't even move, especially on an open map. There's barely a point in staying for the remaining 30 seconds: your team is going to lose anyways, you'd be beyond lucky to get a kill, and you'll probably die 6 or 7 times. That game is unfair: you were thrown into a game that you were guarunteed to lose, and you're being killed due to the poor ability of those that were previously on your team. Why should you be penalized for leaving that game the moment you join? Answer: you shouldn't.
Now before any of you say that's unreasonable, and that this situation would never happen, it's happened to me before, several times. Rage quitting can be annoying, but sometimes you just have to deal with it.
Rage quitting and dashboarding/quitting can't be punished. There are factors that are sometimes out of your control. For example, what if your power flashes out in the middle of the game? Sorry, too bad. You're punished. That pesky younger sibling decides to run by and press the power button? Too bad. Your Xbox froze? Well, enjoy your punishment!
While it seems like punishment would be a great idea, it's impractical and would only bring about greater trouble.
18. Re: What should be done about people who rage quite or dashboard?t.h.flame Jun 9, 2013 10:13 AM (in response to fletch796)
I would propose a Rage Quit XP bar that appears after you quit a game early. It makes the next "X" amount of XP go towards filling up that Rage Quit XP bar. The first Quit will be something small like 250XP. Each time you rage quit, the bar gets larger. It should also restart each week.
1 quit = 250
2 quit = 500
3 quit = 1000
4 quit = 2500
5 quit = 5000
This way, if something happens like, you need to answer the phone or the oven starts smoking, you won't be punished too severely. Maybe make the first quit each week free.
19. Re: What should be done about people who rage quite or dashboard?kastro187420 Jun 9, 2013 1:30 PM (in response to t.h.flame)
Given all the issues this game is going to have on launch (like Black Ops, MW3, Black Ops 2..), people are going to be quitting left and right trying to find a lobby that is functional. These issues will persist for likely a good few weeks, and then in less severe forms for at least a couple months, and even then they'll never eliminate the problems completely.
Look at Black Ops 2 with their temp-ban "feature". That thing broke within the first week and so many innocent people were getting hit with those bans who did nothing wrong. They were just being dropped by the game because their game was broken, yet it still punished them.
As I've said, unless you address the reasons WHY people are quitting, you will never prevent them from doing so. Put in whatever punishment you like, it won't stop the problem. The only way to fix the problem is to look at why people are quitting, and address it there.
It's a bit like having a small child. That child might be throwing up on your carpet and you could get annoyed with it, but simply putting them in the corner and telling them "stop throwing up" isn't going to solve it. You have to figure out why they're throwing up and solve that.
The same is true with this game. Solve the reasons they're leaving, and you reduce the desire to leave.

So there was Robert Gibbs, talking to Savannah Guthrie and Chuck Todd on MSNBC's "The Daily Rundown," explaining why he's leaving the White House.
It may have been an honest take, but it left out more than half of the equation.
Gibbs said he is stepping down as White House press secretary to allow some new blood into the role.
"The reason this place works, is new people come in with new ideas and fresh voices. That has sustained the running of every government," Gibbs said. "I think you need that. I think you need new blood, you need some new energy. "
Just two years in?
It may be that the visual needs an update, too.
For folks who sit in the press room, for those who watch endless hours of cable news, the timing does seem right for a new actor behind the podium. In TV terms: some recasting for midseason.
It may be a good thing for President Obama to have a new press secretary, as Gibbs said. The better thing might be to have a more contemporary face on the daily adventures of his administration. A telegenic, hip communicator who registers for the audience less as the 1980s variety spokesman and more as a Facebook, Twitter and (P.S.) White House press conference emcee.
In a multi-cultural TV world, where blonds rule the newscasts on popular Fox, morning show hosts offer chipper, toothy smiles and youth is everything, Gibbs was a little out of his league.
Is he brilliant? Yes. But, sadly, that only goes so far on TV in 2011.
The viewing audience could stand a surge of personality from this administration. Let the old hands like Gibbs and David Axelrod get busy behind the scenes on the re-election campaign, looking toward 2012.
Robert Gibbs is tired. He admits as much. Who would want to keep up the exhausting pace he's sustained since the campaign? It's all about "the rhythm of how this building works," Gibbs said. "You know, two-year segments in a four-year term. Many of us, as you mentioned, I spent two years on the presidential campaign that ran at a pace different than any other presidential campaign. Two years in here that ran at that pace."
Take a seat off-camera, and bring on a young turk to do the daily standup and sparring with the media.
Perhaps someone from the news biz?
Thinking back on earlier presidential press secretaries, there have been more visually exciting choices, many pulled from the world of TV news, and earlier, newspapers.
Looking back
Bill Moyers was in media before and after serving under LBJ. Ron Nessen, Gerald Ford's spokesman, was a former NBC News correspondent, (also the first White House press secretary to go on "Saturday Night Live.") Tony Snow, a Fox News anchor, was picked by George W. Bush. ABC News correspondent Pierre Salinger was JFK's choice.
Imagine which news personalities might be tapped by Obama to assume the press secretary duties now, who would bring more on-air poise and presence to the job.
Oh, to hear Brian Williams riffing before the press (he's an outstanding ad libber). The only thing Katie Couric's enormous salary can't buy is daily access to the president. Might she abandon the negotiations with CBS, which wants her to take a salary cut, to take a press secretary gig? Would Oprah Winfrey respond if her president called her to serve?
More realistically, perhaps, a George Stephanopolous type, someone who came from politics, made a mark in media, and wants one more shot at the revolving door? NBC's Chuck Todd was a print journalist for years, before following in Tim Russert's shoes as the network's political director.
Comedian and CNN anchor Joy Behar has already volunteered for the spot. Maybe a couple of "Daily Show" writer-producers could pen ghost lines and press releases? I'd nominate Darrell Hammond, whose impressions of politicians have long graced "SNL."
How cool would it be to see Christopher Hayes, clever editor of "The Nation" and a prominent, vigorous guest on MSNBC's "Countdown," angling for the Administration?
Gibbs' departure is all about getting the re-election campaign going, Huffington Post's Roy Sekoff speculated on CNN. That's probably true, but it's also an opportunity for a little flash in the West Wing.
For a president who's been accused of being aloof, a fiery media lightning rod could be just the thing that unites the country.

Teeming with struggle, conflict, faith, sexuality, and power, his works afford the viewer a ringside seat for allegorical spectacle as the spheres of fantasy and reality collide.

MHS831 replied to Montsta's topic in Carolina PanthersIt could be dubbed the "Redemption Bowl"---New England's second chance to run the table by winning the Super Bowl and Carolina's opportunity to avenge their loss to the team that defeated them in their only Super Bowl appearance. The Panthers have six games left, and winning in Dallas with Romo back and the chance to make the playoffs is going to be tough--if they make it, they would be mirroring the team that did nearly the same thing last year on the field. Carolina has Dallas, NY Giants, Atlanta twice, and Tampa Bay left on the schedule, all will be playing desperate football trying to back door the playoffs. They also play Brees in New Orleans, a task many feared tremendously not long ago.
Give me your top 5 most annoying fanbases
MHS831 replied to Hotsauce's topic in Carolina Pantherswithout looking at the others-- 1. Dallas They are not even Texas' team anymore, but since they were flashy in the 70s.....The Aikman beer commercial about living in the past is applicable to all Cowboy fans. Nobody calls you America's team anymore except you. I can say that they have the most ignorant fan base in existence. 2. (TIE) New Orleans and Atlanta. Win and fans become arrogant, brash, bragging morons, lose and they disappear. However, when winning they are intolerable. 4. Philadelphia. They are the most unethical fans in the NFL. Peeing on visiting fans from the upper deck, calling children wearing opponents' gear profanity-laced names--I am guessing they took the "brotherly love:" thing too far, because they are missing a chromosome or two. In fact, the Philadelphia public school system does not own a long bus. 5. New England. They are arrogant and brash. Used to getting calls and winning super bowls. I hate them because they are hard to beat and they know it. I would trade places with them in a minute, however. I think that is in the works. Honorable mention: Seattle---I want to tell them, "Act like you have won a game before!" but then I remember, they haven't.
What Cowboys Fans Are Saying
MHS831 replied to Jeremy Igo's topic in Carolina PanthersReality check for Cowknuckle fans: Even if we lose, we are 10-1, you are 4-7. And don't use the injury excuse. We can win with our second-string qb because we are not being run by an idiot. Our GM has vision, Dallas' has ego and surrounds himself with yes men. During our 14-game win streak, we have had injuries too. Don't believe me because we were 14-0?: 1. QB (First-rounder Cam missed Tampa Bay last year at the end of the season following his accident) 2. MLB (First-rounder Luke missed several games this season) 3. NT (First Rounder Star missed the first few games with a foot injury) 4. WR (First rounder Kelvin Benjamin out for season) 5. RB (First rounders Stewart and or Williams missed games during this streak) Let me stop there--how many teams have 5 first rounders on their roster? How many games were we at full strength? 6. DE (Charles Johnson spent half a season on IR) 7. RG (Norwell out for multiple games mid season) 8. CB (Tillman was out last week) And there have been others, but this is not widely known because we didn't make excuses--oh, wait--we didn't need to. So don't hand me the BS about your WR and QB. We have had more injuries to our core and didn't miss a beat.
GETTLEMAN freaking MAGIC!!
MHS831 replied to ncfan's topic in Carolina PanthersI liked Moses, but saw the value in Ealy. I am rather certain I do not know more than what the people who know nothing write.

MHS831 posted a topic in Carolina PanthersIt is located on an Indian burial ground. Seriously, this team just keeps getting better. I would like to note that Cam's mechanics are better. Less back foot throwing, better accuracy. (sorry for starting another substance-less thread, but I am fired up)
So this happened on the way to Charlotte
MHS831 replied to nctarheel0619's topic in Carolina PanthersHow rare is it to prove to complete strangers that you are a brainless moron without even showing your face or opening your mouth? He is probably listening to Justin Beiber and sporting a permed mullet.

Hi - when using the media uplonder and inserting images into posts, the default behavior seems to be to make the image into a link - to itself.
In the past this wasn't the case, but it seems to be happening for all the writers on my team. They're not very HTML saavy so have no idea they've done it, so I have to go into posts and get rid of the HREF around the images.
How can I make the default for all users to be NOT having uploaded images be links?


text:
I would like to allow registered users to create a post. I want this post to be a picture that they drew. Sort of like draw blog but I want it to be on a background that I have chosen, not a blank canvas. Sort of like a map that they can draw lines and stuff on. And then they can post it like a normal blog post, not a reply.
Is this possible?

VIDEO: Highlights from games played Jan. 22
Blazers try to hold it together | Popovich, Rose stick up for Thibodeau | Riley not itching to make deals | Report: Wizards interested in Allen, too
No. 1: Blazers trying to hold it together now — Without a doubt, there have been better weeks this season for the Portland Trail Blazers than the one they're in right now. Yesterday came news that All-Star forward LaMarcus Aldridge will miss 6-8 weeks following surgery to repair a torn ligament in his thumb. Then came last night's game against the Boston Celtics (which Portland lost, 90-89), sending the Blazers to their fifth loss in six games. Within that game, starting small forward Nicolas Batum injured his wrist and did not return. All of this has Portland circling its wagons, writes :
The Portland Trail Blazers will be without leading scorer LaMarcus Aldridge for the next 6-8 weeks as the three-time All-Star will havesurgery on a torn ligament in his left hand.
The Blazers, who have lost five of their last six games following Thursday's 90-89 loss to the Boston Celtics, refuse to feel sorry for themselves despite a rash of injuries (which included Nicolas Batum re-aggravating a sore wrist) over the last month.
"I don't want to get into not having LaMarcus and I don't want to get into having Nic out there," head coach Terry Stotts said after the game. "Everybody knows what Nic can bring and what LA brings, so we have to figure out different ways of scoring and sometimes different ways of playing."
"We've got to hold down the fort," added guard Wesley Matthews. "We've got to figure it out. We've got to find ways to win and continue to play basketball the right way."

Big Sur is a place that I go often to reflect, to breathe the air. When I find myself off balance, or even slightly out of tune with the world around me, I just jump in my car and head north.
I become centered as soon as I'm driving up the coast.
Big Sur is one of my most favorite places on the planet. It is spectacular. And each time I drive up it is a fresh adventure, a new beach to check out. I just fell in love with Fess Parker Inn in Santa Ynez, which is a great place to stop for breakfast. Try their homemade Greek yogurt and granola, it's the best ever! All the vineyards in Santa Ynez Valley are worth their own day's adventure but it can be a great spot for lunch and maybe one wine tasting, just to enjoy the beauty of the area.
One of my all time favorite hikes is up behind the Ventana Inn in Big Sur. Drive up Coast Ridge Road, behind Ventana and just park and walk along the road until you find the trail head. The flowers and views are so gorgeous, and you might even come across an enclave of butterflies. After a big hike, I have to stop by the Big Sur Bakery for an organic latte and to pick out one of their wonderful homemade jams.
It's remarkable to think I've traveled only a few hours from my home and seen so much beauty and such different geography... that really makes me a proud Californian. I often think with our busy schedules and harried lives that we don't realize what is in our own back yard. We are constantly traveling somewhere else to relax instead of taking advantage of all the homegrown beauty that is so close to us. I travel so much for my work, that getting in my car and exploring all that my home state has to offer is so appealing, so liberating! And no place is more peaceful and rejuvenating than Big Sur.
This year has been particularly travel heavy for me and all I would think about while boarding a plane for yet another long flight was just getting in my car and driving to Tassajara in Carmel Valley. Tassajara Road is so beautiful in and of itself, particularly in the early morning or when the sun is setting, it is spectacular to see.
Tassajara is an incredible place where there are stunning hot springs deep inside the heart of the mountains. It's actually a Buddhist monastery school but from April to September it is open for guests. They have Zen meditation and retreats about Buddhism, Qigong or Zen in the Workplace (who doesn't need that), so much to offer! It's my spiritual heaven. It's where I can hear myself and listen, I don't have to talk. The trails, the hikes, the baths along the stream, the natural hot springs all heal me. It is as simple as that. I want to be a conscious human being and Tassajara is a place for some guidance through life by breathing and observing without judgement. And I have to mention the wonderful bread that they serve with every meal, they're famous for it!
I often go to Esalen in Big Sur. Great food, and incredible workshops on everything from Enneagrams to Improvising Our Lives, it's amazing what they have to offer. They have wonderful hot tubs, that are fed from the natural hot springs, that overlook the ocean. I can sit in the hot tub and listen to the sound of the waves crashing against the rocky cliffs below. For me, this is heaven. And it reminds me of the Mediterranean, where I also feel very rejuvenated. My family is from the Mediterranean and I believe that our heredity has a lot to do with the places that we feel most comfortable or more centered.
Another place that I love to stay for a night when I feel like splurging, is the Post Ranch Inn. It's also a great spot for lunch. The dining room and patio have absolutely stunning ocean views, and the food is divine. But if you can swing a night there it is almost otherworldly. All the rooms are little cabins either built into a tree or into the side of the cliff. And there are beautiful slate soaking tubs in each room, most with stunning views to look at while you relax in the tub. There's also a very luxurious spa, but I find the beautiful walks, the dramatic views and the morning yoga all that I need to feel completely revived.
Whatever may be the cause -- the air, the beaches, the views, the hot springs or heredity -- the fact is I find myself the most grounded in Big Sur.
The Pacific Coast Highway, Malibu. California Living! July 30th, 2012... The start of my journey to Big Sur.
Another gorgeous California moment driving up the PCH...
Along the way, I always find something beautiful that inspires me...
This is just off Highway154 as you enter into Pismo Beach. Love all the signs! There are great thrift stores here, too so check them out.
I discovered this location on the way up north on Highway 1 near San Luis Obispo. These grounds will be a state of the art, super eco-conscious, green beyond green spa and hotel! The food sounds like it will be amazing, too. But we have to wait and see... So, check out Moonshadows Spa sometime in 2013.
This room inspires me to use boulders for interior spaces. Moonshadows Spa, under construction. San Luis Obispo.
On Highway 1. I love the motorcycles along the way. I imagine the person behind me here thinks I'm HOT and is following me...
This was The Piedras Blancas Motel, north of Cambria. It went out of business, sadly. It looks like it would have been an offbeat, fun place to stay for the night.
One of my favorite spots along the highway to stop is the Piedras Blancas Elephant Seal Rookery. It's just 14 miles north of Cambria. There is a great observation deck to walk along and watch the beautifully funky elephant seals playing on the beach or relaxing in the sun. If you want to see the little babies go during the birthing season which starts in mid December and last until early February.
The Visitors Center at the entrance to Hearst Castle, which is a MUST SEE. The place is so big that there are three completely different tours and it takes all day if you go on all of them. One is enough. Even the shuttle ride up to the Castle is worth it the price of admission.
I love this spot, I immediately thought of Edward Scissorshands (as I would!). Find it on Highway 1, about 15 minutes north of Hearst Castle.
A Zen moment. We all need a few...
I love the Northen California beaches... This is Mill Creek Beach, about 25 miles south of Big Sur. Or about 35 miles north of San Simeon, if you coming that way!
Beautiful Pfeiffer Beach in Big Sur.
Henry Miller lived in Big Sur for 20 years and the Henry Miller Library seeks to preserve his legacy. It is also a fabulous performance space hosting musicians from The Arcade Fire to the XX as well as readings by renowned poets and authors. There is also an amazing bookstore. I always check out their calendar before any trip through Big Sur.
A beautiful walkway on the grounds of Esalan in Big Sur. Esalen is a MUST. Just to experience the hot spring baths while staring at the stars at night is magical...
A hot spring bath with a gorgeous view at Esalen.
The view from the baths at Esalen.
The morning sunlight slipping through the trees at Esalen.
McWay Falls on Julia Pfeiffer Beach is absolutely gorgeous. There is great hiking in the Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park that this beach is in. It's really worth exploring.
Gorgeous Carmel Valley. Another reason to love California, just a short drive in from the coast and you find such a dramatically different, equally beautiful landscape.
On Tassajara Road in Carmel Valley. I feel like I am in heaven with all the clouds. A trip to Tassajara is an amazing, spiritually grounding experience.
Beautiful Tassajara Road.
There are natural springs here at Tassajara that are so beautiful and clean. This is the men's side, where there are hot plunges, a steam room, showers and sun decks.
I got up super early this morning to watch the sunrise... And here it is reflecting so beautifully through the trees along Tassajara Road.
Leaving the Los Padres, saying goodbye to a lovely stay at Tassajara. And starting my journey home...
A gorgeous farm in Carmel Valley. Sometimes driving home from up north, I take highway 154 for a couple hours. This route provides an inland perspective and is as equally gorgeous as the coastal drive.
A beautiful farm in Carmel Valley.
Yet another type of landscape to admire in Carmel Valley. This looks straight of a spaghetti western to me, where's young Clint Eastwood?
Just another one of those beautiful coastal California vistas. Lucky cows, right?
But after all the driving and exploring, eventually I just want to be home... so, like the window says, LA or Bust!

Put conference on hold: ANCYL membersComment on this story
ANC Youth League members in Limpopo gathered outside the party's headquarters in Polokwane on Thursday demanding that its upcoming weekend elective conference be put on hold.
League members accused the ANC's provincial executive committee of not adhering to the party's elective process when conference delegates were nominated during branch meetings.
They wanted the disbanded Peter Mokaba region to participate in the conference. They claimed it had been dissolved to suppress leaders opposed to provincial secretary Jacob Lebogo.
Lebogo, a close ally of suspended ANCYL president Julius Malema, was standing for re-election as secretary. His supporters backed league treasurer Rudzani Ludere for the post of chairman.
ANCYL Polokwane sub-regional secretary Joel Seabi said they wanted to meet with the ANC's national executive committee to discuss their problems.
"We are gathered here, as branches that are concerned, to say the league provincial executive did not conduct their meeting in a proper manner."
He said ANCYL members would accept the elected leadership and allow the elective conference to go ahead if proper processes were followed.
Police were monitoring the situation. The conference was due to start on Friday in Polokwane. - Sapa

'Vanguards' host women's forum
January 13, 2012
By Sgt. Mary S. Katzenberger, 4IBCT Public Affairs
FORT STEWART, Ga. - The "Vanguard" brigade hosted a women's forum for female Soldiers in the 4th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, Third Infantry Division, Dec. 15, at the Main Post Chapel.
The day-long event, which featured keynote speakers Lt. Col. Heidi Hoyle, commander of 3rd Special Troops Battalion, 3rd Sustainment Brigade, 3rd Inf. Div., and Command Sgt. Maj. Cynthia Howard, command sergeant major of 87th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, 3rd SB, included a panel discussion and a presentation on sexual assault awareness.
Colonel Kimo C. Gallahue, commander of 4IBCT, requested the forum be held to address female Soldiers' issues and to provide Soldiers the opportunity to speak with senior leaders about navigating through successful careers in the Army.
Both Lt. Col. Hoyle and Command Sgt. Maj. Howard told the attendees that earning rank and esteem in the Army requires possessing a high level of physical fitness and technical proficiency--qualities required of every Soldier regardless of gender.
"You've got to believe in yourself," Command Sgt. Maj. Howard said. "You've got to give one hundred and ten percent. You've got to dot every 'I' and cross every 'T' before you go out and complain."
Specialist Jessica J. Howard, a native of Oak Forrest, Ill., and a motor transport operator with Company A, 703rd Brigade Support Battalion, 4IBCT, said having the opportunity to hear what the guest speakers had to say was meaningful.
"I've been in the military for five years and … a lot of people have told me that I can't … do this, that I can't do that," Spc. Howard said. "But … the fact is … if you put your mind to it you can."
Specialist Howard said a leader from her past discouraged her during a deployment, saying she would never learn how to drive a specific type of military vehicle. The motor transport operator said she relied on the advice from a senior leader to navigate through the situation.
"She told me to look at it as a challenge [and] to wake up every day to prove … that I was worth something," Spc. Howard said. "Let me tell you, three months later [my leader] had no choice but to give me my license."
Specialist Sarah M. Bailey, a combat medic with Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 703rd BSB, 4IBCT, said participating in the women's forum was more beneficial than she had expected.
"[It was] a time for female Soldiers … to talk to senior leadership and kind of get a better grasp of what it is to be a female in the Army and … what you can do to excel," Spc. Bailey said. "I … got a better idea on … how to do those little things that will help me stand out and help me … stay professional in situations, and how to handle work and be in the Army better than I was able to before."

As Colorado prepares for the Super Bowl this weekend, another important celebration is also taking place to celebrate the horse. Known as the Spring Festival or Lunar New Year, thousands will celebrate the Year of the Horse beginning on January 31, 2014.
Unlike other new year celebrations, the Lunar New Year is celebrated over 15 days through many traditions and customs. One common practice is to clean your house before the new year begins to get rid of "bad fortune" and make way for incoming luck. Another activity is to decorate homes and windows with paper cut-outs celebrating themes of good fortune, longevity, wealth, and happiness.

"We'll start with smaller groups of focused testers, who all registered through our [The Elder Scrolls Online] beta signup," Zenimax said.
Update: The first wave of invites have been sent out according to ElderScrolls.com
The business model for The Elder Scrolls Online has not been announced yet but it is expected to release some time in 2013. Whether the MMORPG is a subscription-based title, free-to-play title

Death of The Ruck
An article describing how in the modern version of Rugby Union the ruck has all but disappeared.
Post Comment|0 Liked It
In recent years the animal kingdom has lost some great creatures. The Baiji River Dolphin and the Javan Tiger are chilling with the Dodo and the Mammoth in the realm of extinction. Yet another great beast that is facing extinction is at the heart of the game of Rugby Union; the ruck. According to the laws, "the ruck is a phase of play where one or more players from each team, who are on their feet, in physical contact, close around the ball on the ground". Now I ask you to go away, watch a game of top level rugby and count how many 'real' rucks you see. I imagine it is likely to be in single figures and I will explain why.
The first part of the law that states 'one or more players from each team' is in reality rarely seen. Often defending teams do not commit any players to the 'ruck' however if there are no defending players in said 'ruck' then no such ruck exists. If no ruck exists there is no offside line and the opposition would be perfectly entitled to stand amidst their opposing backs. Imagine the same situation but if there was a maul. If no defending players were committed the attacking team would be penalised for pre-binding before contact. Then there is the concept of players staying on their feet. The original concept of being on your feet was that if all other players were removed you would still be able to support your own body weight. At any one breakdown there is a multitude of 'innocent' players flopping over the ball and others that are supposedly on their feet but in reality would immediately flop over if the players on the ground were removed. The law allows players on their feet to use their hands with the concept this would speed up the rucking process. In reality defensive players put their hands on the ball when they are not on their feet, get away with it and slow the game down. The rest of their defence strings itself across the field waiting for the next down-head, plodding meat-head rumble.
|A modern 'ruck' PHOTO: GETTY IMAGES
The game of Rugby Union has now started to resemble a poor man's version of Rugby League which is tiresome at the best of times. The main difference between Union and League is the existence of the breakdown. But in the majority of Union games the attack finds their biggest meatheads and sends them on a one metre charge to flop at the feet of the next tackler to set up the next 'ruck'. The defence commits perhaps one or two men to the breakdown and the rest string across the field. The attack then summons another meathead and sends him on another charge. This process often goes on for several phases until the referee arbitrarily gives a penalty because he hasn't given one in a while, the attack knocks it on or they get bored of this pointless exercise and kick it away. Rugby Union is suffering from homogeneity. This used to be the style of select few teams but now seemingly everyone has adopted it. Rugby as a game for all shapes and sizes is slowly fading with a gym culture taking over where many players are encouraged to lift weights in the gym instead of improving their basic skills. The meat headed charges mean that many games can become a non-affair in the last ten minutes as the winning side just tries to kill out the clock. If we look at the recent World Cup and take Wales and New Zealand out of the equation it was a very dull World Cup in terms of quality of rugby. I understand there was plenty of tension in many games but there were very few vintage attacking moments that we will reminisce about in years to come. The players that were most praised at the World Cup were the openside flankers and the main reason for this was how they nullified the opposition attack. The openside flanker's craft is a unique one and I have plenty of respect as the Richie McCaw's of this world truly are some of the best players. However, one need only look back at the World Cup Final to see the negativity of the New Zealand back row. The following link sheds a lot of light on a so called glorious New Zealand win and is a must-watch for anyone interested in the state of the game:
The main thrust of the video is to suggest the inconsistency of the referee but there are several decisions that highlight the problem that surrounds the breakdown at the moment. I must make this clear that I see this as a problem that mostly affects the top level of the game. In watching an Under 15s game of rugby I saw plenty more real rucks than in any recent international test.
So how can we fix this problem? Well I have a few suggestions that if implemented should at least help this malaise of negative rucking.
1) Enforce the current law. Referees need to be more consistent and vigilant at ruck time. If players are off their feet in the traditional sense and playing the ball they should be penalised. As soon as the referee shouts "ruck" it should be a hands off policy. Anyone playing the ball with their hands should be penalised immediately and shouldn't be offered another chance. This is not revolutionary. This is all already in the rulebook the referees just need to be stricter enforcing it. Players will learn and hopefully it should reduce the negativity both in attack and defence whilst not entirely destroying the craft of the jackler.
2) Re-introduce the use of the boot. Too many players lie around at ruck time interfering with play. It sounds barbaric but allowing the use of the boot in the ruck should encourage players to get the hell out of the way. If you don't learn after a good shooing it is unlikely that you ever will.
3) Don't allow scrum halves to sit with the ball at the back of a stationary ruck for an eternity. In a similar way to how mauls are managed the referee should inform the scrum half to "use it or lose it" if the ball is at the back of the ruck. If the scrum half takes too long about it a scrum should be awarded to the defending side. This will discourage the practice that takes place at the end of games where teams just slowly run out the clock with the ball safely at the back of the ruck where it is impossible for the opposition to compete for it.
As you can see my suggestions are hardly revolutionary and mostly revolve around tougher policing of the breakdown. Hopefully these new measures should lead to more forwards committing to rucks and being effective thus creating more space outside and reducing the mindless pick and drives. The ruck is one of the features that makes Rugby Union unique and it is a shame to see it move closer towards a Rugby League or American Football style of play. Here's hoping that in the Six Nations we see better policing of the contact area and less mindless pick-and-gos but I won't be holding my breath.

The wire of the Tesco 100 Value coloured christmas lights is more black than green, so not well camouflaged. Lights themselves are fairly garish colours. Fairy lights should be soft pretty colours.
Main problem: stopped working after 12 hours, so had to completely re do tree. Not happy.
Just wish for better colour quality bulbs, less flashing razamatazz! Those sequences are really annoying!

"After a year and a half on the market with two different agents we were market weary and so was our house. We got a call from the Jensen Team and Jimmy convinced me that they were/are different from other Realtors. We decided to list our home one more time at virtually the same price and had an offer in a couple of weeks.
Myra and Jimmy believed in the value of our home and that showed in the listing. Myra is multi-talented as a Realtor, Stager, Marketer, and top-notch listener. Her marketing made the best of our house and its location.
This is truly a team that excels at what they do! I'd work with them again!"

Little did I know that developing and following the Living PowerLife approach to health and well-being would result in reviewing, rethinking, rejuvenating and finally rebooting everything about me. Reviewing past decisions for wisdom, rethinking how those decisions could have been different. Rejuvenating my mind, body, and spirit with a wholesome approach to life. Rebooting myself so that the person I was meant to be has a chance to exist. Or, imagine my surprise as I realized that what I experienced as change was actually me becoming me. What I was viewing as change was actually the journey that would end the change that I underwent while becoming an adult. My journey came with a cost, though, which was coming to terms with my own mortality. Only through facing and overcoming the frightening possibility of death was I able to look at the past, present, and future with the same eyes.
Coming face to face with my own mortality empowered me to transcend the distractions I used to avoid personal growth. These are the distractions that allowed me to avoid reviewing my decisions in retrospect. We all use distractions to keep from facing things we do not want to know about ourselves. Distractions such as blame, where we see others as the source of our problems. Anger, when we lash out in efforts to cause pain, rather than face why we hurt from within. Drug, food, sex, and alcohol abuse where we over-indulge in efforts to mask our feelings of guilt, loneliness, and inadequacy.
These distractions keep us isolated from one another and more importantly, we are unable to connect with all of who we are. We can see an example of how distractions separate us and stop us from maturing in the current tensions between communities and the police. The talking heads, news papers, social media, and broadcasts are full of distractions such as racism, gun control, and legal justice. In the process, we are only becoming further and further apart from one another based on political, ethnic, or cultural differences. Because of this, we are less and less able to see the common needs that connect us as humans. Instead, we focus more and more on the particulars that make us appear different from one another.
Thinking about the fact that we are given a limited number of days, can frighten and paralyze us. Knowing and consciously accepting this limitation can also empower us. We see each day as a gift not to be wasted on actions that come from pride, fear, or bigotry. Accepting our own mortality empowers us to focus on ways to rejuvenate our minds, bodies, and spirits with each new day. This means that instead of making choices that separate us from self and one another, we make life-giving choices that connect us. Rather than succumb to the challenges that we face, we hold on to the knowledge that no one event or person has the power to diminish who we are.
Indeed, the day we become consciously aware that we will one day lose our lives, is the day we gain the calm confidence to live life completely. The time we understand that any minute can be our last is time we begin to make every moment worth remembering. I know this because one of the benefits of acknowledging and overcoming the challenge described in You Are the Answer is gaining fearlessness. Now, do not get me wrong. I do not think I can leap tall buildings in a single bound (email me if you get this reference). I still avoid pain and understand what could happen if I walk out into moving traffic. The fearlessness I am describing is based on freedom from anxiety. Freedom from the problems any mind can create. With fearlessness, or freedom from anxiety, we own life, powerless is not a word, and the miracle of a rebooted mind takes place.
Rebooting a mind is similar to rebooting a computer. When the computer is sluggish or crashes sometimes taking it to a time before the crash will restore the machine. This is how I experience the results of following Living PowerLife to date; my mind has been restored to a time before I went down the path that was not meant for me. One example is that my taste for food is different. A few days ago I realized that, after eating mayonnaise on my sandwiches for decades, I now prefer mustard which has less fat. This is a simple example but significant in the long run. A more complex example is the fact that I no longer have the need to address rudeness from others. When I encounter rude people, I do not have to internally fight the urge to respond. The feeling simply is not there any longer.
Coming to terms with the fact that we all will ultimately die, gives us courage to recognize our mistakes and use the lessons they contain to become better. These are the mistakes we can only see if we are willing to rethink how we lived and be open to new perspectives. Understanding the fact that death is the one thing we all have in common, frees us to focus on the work of becoming better people. Accepting death as part of living gives us the ability to refrain from wasting time and energy on situations that are beyond our control.
I leave you today with these thoughts as we recognize, claim, and live the power we have in every situation:
- The more you know you can live without, the more power you have to overcome adversity.
- Realizing that life is limited and living accordingly is how we leave anxiety behind.
- Whenever you can, regularly take time away from the instant gratification of the Internet.
- If your health allows, regularly abstain from physical gratification like food.
- When you are taking time out and in abstinence, use the time to listen for your inner voice.
- Keep those who live in love rather than anger close.
- Understand that those who live in anger are full of anxiety.
May your year be prosperous, full of love, and peaceful. Until my next entry...
From my PowerLife to yours,

DON WILDMAN of Travel Channel's MYSTERIES AT THE MUSEUM
in Paranormal
In the sixth season of Travel Channel's Mysteries at the Museum, airing Thursdays at 9pE, history explorer Don Wildman leaves no artifact unturned as he scours America's archives, uncovering objects that bear witness to some of history's most astonishing secrets.
Museums are where America displays its wondrous treasures of the past — often strange and curious remnants of the momentous events that have shaped our history. Behind each artifact is yet another story to be told and secret to be revealed — tales brimming with scandal, mystery, murder and intrigue.
Don Wildman also served as host of Travel Channel's Off Limits, where he crisscrossed the United States, taking viewers behind locked doors to uncover the secrets of the country's man-made world. In Wildman's new original series on Travel Channel, Monumental Mysteries, he uncovers some of America's most intriguing events, greatest triumphs, well-known disasters, and even some notorious crimes that are linked to many of the nation's history-rich monuments.
Previously, Wildman served as the intrepid host of History's adventure series, Cities of the Underworld, where he explored hundreds of mysterious tunnels, catacombs, crypts and bunker systems around the globe. Wildman has worked across a spectrum of subjects from history to engineering to sports adventure including ESPN's Men's Journal, and Filthy Cities – a joint venture between Discovery Channel and BBC.

I've written some overarching thoughts about last week's presidential election, but I wanted to dwell on one of its more fascinating aspects: the extent to which the Republican party was blindsided by the outcome. Going into Tuesday, countless Republicans had predicted a solid victory for Mitt Romney, and it's clear that this wasn't just a political ploy to sway media coverage. On the contrary, Republicans at every level sincerely believed this - ordinary voters, professional pundits, and … [Read more...]
Piercing the Republican Epistemic Bubble
How Religion's Demand for Obedience Keeps Us in the Dark Ages
This article was previously published on AlterNet. For the vast majority of human history, the only form of government was the few ruling over the many. As human societies became settled and stratified, tribal chiefs and conquering warlords rose to become kings, pharaohs, and emperors, all ruling with absolute power and passing on their thrones to their children. To justify this obvious inequality and explain why they should reign over everyone else, most of these ancient rulers claimed that … [Read more...]
Rehabilitating the Inquisition
These days, one of the blogs where I spend the most time commenting is Leah Libresco's Unequally Yoked on Patheos. This isn't just because its author has a unique and interesting perspective unlike any I've seen elsewhere, but also because there's a lot more give-and-take between atheists and theists (mostly Catholics) than you find in the comments section of many atheist blogs. And while debating and attempting to persuade believers is a fun and worthwhile pursuit in and of itself, I also do … [Read more...]
The Radicalism of Obedience
As I mentioned in my last link roundup, I wanted to discuss in more detail the Pope's latest Easter homily, in which he directly addresses the "disobedience" of priests who are calling for the ordination of women and an end to mandatory celibacy. There are some interesting implications for how the elites of the Vatican see the future of the Catholic church. The background to this story is that Catholicism is in the grip of a slow-motion demographic crisis: their priests are growing old and … [Read more...]
The Religious Demand for Obedience
My latest column has been posted on AlterNet, How Religion's Demand for Obedience Keeps Us in the Dark Ages. It's about the religious worldview that sees human existence as a strict hierarchy of commandments and submission, how this belief has been used by tyrants and autocrats throughout the ages to justify unaccountable power, and how it continues to oppress human beings today even as the monarchies that once enshrined it have crumbled. Read the excerpt below, then click through to see the … [Read more...]
The Apologist's Turnstile
As I've often mentioned, religion has a set of cognitive tricks - unconscious ideas, prejudices and habits of thought it tries to instill in believers - which shield their minds against contrary argument and make it less likely that they'll leave the faith. One example is the selective wall I've written about in the past, also dubbed "Morton's demon", that lets supportive evidence pass through while blocking contradictory evidence. Today, I want to discuss a different but equally common one: the … [Read more...]
Weekend Coffee: November 5
On my old site, I had regular link roundups for all the stories I saw that interested me, but that I didn't have the time to write about at greater length. And I've had a lot of those stories this week, so here's some things to read over your Saturday morning coffee: • I've previously reported on whether the American Cancer Society turned down a big donation because it came from atheists. Now the redoubtable Greta Christina has written a lengthy follow-up piece for AlterNet, laying out the … [Read more...]
The Duty of External Obedience
While I was doing research for "The Ordinary and Universal Magisterium", I came across some amazing passages in the New Advent Catholic encyclopedia's article on infallibility. Since it can be safely assumed that these still represent the Catholic church's viewpoint, I thought it was worth calling some wider attention to them.The article starts out by making the same threats that are endemic to all forms of Christianity: the ominous proclamation that the church is infallible, and if you don't … [Read more...]
Escaping Christian Patriarchy
Ophelia of Butterflies and Wheels has been writing some excellent posts lately about the abuse and oppression of women in Christian communities. One of them led me to an outstanding blog titled Love, Joy, Feminism. Its author, Libby Anne, grew up in an incredibly strict and fundamentalist Christian home that practiced a way of life she calls "Christian Patriarchy" (some might also refer to it as the Quiverfull movement). She and all her (twelve!) siblings were homeschooled, indoctrinated with … [Read more...]
Rebutting Reasonable Faith: The Evangelical Conspiracy Theory
In "The Aura of Infallibility", I mentioned William Lane Craig's belief in something he calls the "self-authenticating witness of the Holy Spirit", which he considers to be the most persuasive, crowning argument for Christianity. Basically, all it boils down to is that Craig has a really strong feeling that Christianity is true, and he believes that that feeling should be privileged above any and all evidence.As Craig himself puts it, in question #136:For not only should I continue to have … [Read more...]

My Nissan Altima 2002 (106873 miles). It used to smooth after oil changes. But, I have been noticing that the car is not smooth as it used to be after oil changes. It used to feel like the car was flowing like water now it feel like I'm driving a cart (not exactly). But, what I can I do to fix this?
Getting an oil change should not make your car go from driving like crap to all of a sudden brand new, there are a lot of other maintaince that must go into a car other than simply doing an oil change. When you get your oil changed do you also have them check the transmission fluid, differential fluid, power steering fluid...also your using the word smooth, whats not smooth about it, without that info we can only assume your car is simply not maintained well, with over 100000 its prolly time for new brake rotors, shocks, a complete flush of all system fluids including brake fluids, has any of this been done?

A lawyer from the Center for Reproductive Rights fills us in on what's going on with the last clinic in Mississippi. A new HIV prevention drug has limited uses and pregnancy testing in bars is a really bad idea.
In the first half of 2012, states enacted 95 new provisions related to reproductive health and rights. As was the case in 2011, issues related to abortion, family planning funding and sex education once again were significant flashpoints in many legislatures .
