Latest Release. Offline Browsing in HTML5 with ApplicationCache. Offline browsing is becoming increasingly important to web developers and designers.
Giving the user the ability to use your website offline has always been a goal, but one that was pretty difficult to reach, to say the least. As we move into the age of HTML5, however, this is changing and you can now take advantage of the ApplicationCache interface. Using the application cache, you can specify which files the browser can cache and use when the user is offline. Your website will work as if the user is online, and best of all, they won't notice any difference! So, how do you specify which files the browser should cache? The Cache Manifest The cache manifest file lives inside your website, and it defines which files can be cached by the browser.
The catch is this must be included on every page. Mobilizer. Veille Technologique. Meta viewport Minimal-UI Dimanche 16 mars 2014 Il y a quelques jours est sortie la version 7.1 de iOS, apportant avec elle son lot de bugs (typo et bug) et de nouveautés.

HTML5 and CSS3 Form References & Resources. Useful HTML5/CSS3 Frameworks. Frameworks are an interesting topic.
Some developers absolutely swear by them, other developers see them as unnecessary complications that add a lot of superfluous weight to what would otherwise be fairly simple code. I find them to be quite useful and timesaving. HTML5 and CSS3 frameworks are becoming more and more popular every day, so in this post, we'll examine some of the most popular CSS3 and HTML5 frameworks.

Neko Case sings with The Dodos on new album 'No Color'
The Dodos' last two albums have been incredible, so I'm quadruple-y excited for the third. Particularly since Neko Case appears to be involved.
"No Color" will be out on March 15 via Frenchkiss, who insanely continue to put out solid records, damn them. Alt-country standout Case is singing on about half the set, according to FrenchKiss.
This is after the San Francisco-based band has gone back to being a guitar/voice and drums duo, losing the vibraphonist the helped out on their last "Time to Die." Instead, expect a '90s comeback. Welcome to the twenty-teens
"I have a love for '90s riffs that I haven't gotten to showcase in this band," said singer/guitarist Meric Long in a release. "The most fun I had with this record was when I got to strap on the electric guitar and come up with Billy Corgan riffs while the tape was rolling."
[More after the jump...]
The band got back together with former producer John Askew for "No Color": Askew helmed their debut "Beware of the Maniacs" and "Visiter." At nine tracks, "No Color" is just as long as "Time to Die."
Here is the tracklist for "No Color":
1. Black Night
2. Going Under
3. Good
4. Sleep
5. Don't Try And Hide It
6. When Will You Go
7. Hunting Season
8. Companions
9. Don't Stop
And here is a behind-the-scenes video of the band in the studio:

NEW YORK (MainStreet) Earlier this year, the Federal Reserve began scaling back its bond stimulus by $10 billion per month, on the heels of improving economic conditions.
In her first Congressional testimony as the newly minted Federal Reserve Chairwoman, Janet Yellen announced that the Federal Reserve would continue tapering the bond stimulus, so long as the economic data and conditions warrant such action.
"If incoming information broadly supports the Committee's expectation of ongoing improvement in labor market conditions and inflation moving back towards its longer-run objective, the Committee will likely reduce the pace of asset purchases in further measured steps at future meetings," Yellen told Congress.
The Federal Reserve's bond stimulus, known as quantitative easing, boded well for investors in 2013, as it contributed to the Dow Jones Industrial Average's 27.5% gain and the S&P 500's 32% increase.
Those increases were an aberration and will likely be difficult to replicate in 2014. After all, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is already down 3.5% for 2014.
Since the Federal Reserve's stimulus is slowly starting to exit the markets, investors are scrambling to prep their portfolios for what is expected to be a turbulent year ahead.Not to mention, a dearth of asset buybacks from the Federal Reserve will push interest rates yields to the upside, along with the 10-Year Treasury yield, which determines the interest rates on mortgages and credit cards, even though the Federal Reserve is not expected to change the federal funds rate any time this year, adding another level of complexity to asset allocation.
"It might be time to take some risk off the table, given 2013's gains, but we remain with a bias towards stocks," says Jeff Raupp, CFA and senior investment manager at Brinker Capital, a $16 billion investment manager. "If your time horizon is 6-12 months, you have to look at the markets in a positive nature, but you might have some more volatility from the taper."

Yea, thats right pal, I'm talking to you.
Are you sick and tired of driving a car that makes you look like a total gibroni? I know I'm sick and tired of you doing that.
BOOM! 2000 Ford Crown Victoria. The instant you slip into the driver's seat of this baller-assed luxury fortress on wheels: Instant street cred.
People will immediately respect you once you hit the streets in this fully-sick swagger wagon. And it shows when every car around you hits the brakes as soon as they see you approaching. Obviously as a sign they acknowledge your superiority to them, I mean come on, LOOK AT THIS THING!!!
Oh my god, this thing has power everything, you don't even need to break a sweat; but you might with the ultra hot-blowing heater. Too hot? Then CHILL. This thing has A/C that blows colder than snowman fellatio.
This fine automobile was driven by none other than my grandfather, the legendary Tony K. Tony only rolled in this auto when he really felt the urge to style on the common-people, so it was taken out of its stable only on occasion; hence, the incredibly low mileage.
Tony only sought the best care for his stallion, so it requires nothing mechanically (except maybe for some new brake rotors - Tony kept these ones the way they are because he was all about the Shimmy-Shimmy-ya ;).
Jealous haters attempted to flex on Tony's machine once or twice before, resulting in several scuffs and dings, but Tony decided to keep them on the car as a warning sign to others that he is not to be flexed with. He also kept the interior extra-immaculate, because this car was Tony's temple, and he didn't want to offend the gods of luxury.
Tony was also a family man, and he wants his chariot to go to another family man who can make great use of it. No family?! NO PROBLEM!! This thing is a 5 star hotel on wheels, and has PLENTY of room to start a family. Believe it. When babes see you rolling, they WILL recognize.
So let me guess, now you're wondering: "Respect? Luxury? Babes? There is no way that I can have all that for a mere $3000.00…" Well guess what chief, you're WRONG, because you CAN!
All you've gotta do is give me a call at 241-8223, and we can set you up a date of acquisition for this sleek, sexy, powerful dream-machine. DO IT! CALL NOW BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE! YOU OWE THIS TO YOURSELF!!!

Welcome and thanks for visiting
. Buffalo Gap Longhorns is located on a family ranch property 2 miles southwest of Buffalo Gap, Texas some 12 miles south of Abilene. Located on the northern edge of the Edwards Plateau, Buffalo Gap is named for the gap in the mountains once traversed by millions of American Bison in their annual migrations. Comanche Indians used the natural funnel in their annual hunting expeditions for the buffalo.
We are focused on building a foundation herd using some of the best genetics in the industry through both AI and Embryo Transfer. Our program is utilizing semen from industry leaders: CV Cowboy Casanova, BL Cowboy Tuff Chex, RJF Sittin Dreamer, and Spur Texa. The breeding plan is focused on horn, color, and consistency. As we build our foundation herd from these proven producers we will be retaining the heifers for further improvement in our long range plan.
We are thrilled to have added RC Pacific Mermaid to our herd in March 2016. Mermaid is only six years old, already tops 80" TTT, and has already produced a bull with over 80" TTT and a cow with over 77" TTT. She is a magnificent, proven producer, and she is going to be the foundation of our cow herd.
We are also thrilled to have three heifers from the cross of CV Cowboy Casanova x FL Rio Maxine. This cross, which we accomplished with our partner, Cedar View Ranch, has produced several great bull prospects including Call of Duty. And, our first heifer, BG Cricket, topped 59" TTT on her second birthday.
We also own a young heifer calf, Tuff's Red Rose, who is sired by world record Cowboy Tuff Chex who most recently measured 99" TTT. Her dam is Max's Red Rose measuring 87" TTT. Rose has already produced a 90" TTT daughter, Rex's Red Rose. Tuff's Red Rose will be the next great producer on the ranch when she matures.
As you can see, we are establishing the building blocks for tremendous horned cattle in our herd.
Please browse our pages and our herd often and watch us grow. We would love to meet you personally, and show off our herd if you are in our area. Feel free to contact us with questions or if you have an interest in purchasing any animals you see.

Historical Traveler Reviews Al Moudira Hotel Luxor
A Very, very different Hotel !!
Firstly Al Moudira is different. Very,very different from the main stream Hotels operated in Egypt.
My wife and I stayed for 4 nights in September 2005 and we personally considered the prices charged as a "rip-off"
Whereas our room had its own fountain(which we never saw working) this does not substitute for the lack of cleanliness.
The gardens are overgrown and by Western standards the furniture is a load of junk looking as though it was purchased from the local souk.
If you are aged 25 years and younger the place will probably appeal, for the more discerning Traveller having an eye for quality - Beware - Don't stay !
Sadly we chose to ignore the earlier criticisms posted by people who had stayed at Al Moudira. Regretably their comments proved to be correct in all respects.
Unfortunately the overall appearance of the "Hotel" shows abject neglect.
A very special place...with quirks and flaws
Al Moudira, as you will see from its website, is a beautiful hotel with unique rooms done in a vaguely Egyption/Arabic/Italianate style. The hotel is located in a quiet rural section of the Luxor valley well apart from the business and tourist section of Luxor located across the river. The location is a good and bad thing -- if you wish a rest from the noise and bustle of tourist luxor, the short cab ride to al Moudira allows you to escape it. You can spend your evenings wandering the quiet grounds and staring at the stars and hills marking the edge of the nile valley. The location also puts you much closer to the tourist sites on the west bank of the nile. On the other hand, if you want to easily eat somewhere else, or stroll outside to do some shopping....you can't. There is nothing around within walking distance of the hotel that would come remotely close to being a tourist facility.
I would not recommend al Moudira for those with kids. Rather, it is a place for adult travelers to enjoy a boutique hotel with unique rooms in a beautiful setting. There is an outdoor pool (unheated and thus almost unusable in December/January), but little other recreational facilities. Bring a book, enjoy the view and spend the day looking at the tourist sites. If you have kids, the lack of dining options (there is only one hotel restaurant and it has rigidly defined serving times) is a huge problem. When we tried room service, it was a long time coming. Not a good thing with a demanding three year old famished from a day at the temples and tombs. For those wanting a hotel more in the thick of things (with a myriad of restaurants open 24 hours), I would suggest the Sonesta St. George. Not anywhere near as special or romantic, but much more convenient.
Perhaps I was spoiled by the 4 Seasons Cairo, but I found service here to be OK but not great. Room service was a problem and the quality of English, even at reception, was poor. This hotel caters largely to Europeans, so perhaps I would have better luck with French. The grounds are well maintained and clean, as was the pool, but you have nothing like the 5 star pool service that you get at the 4 Seasons (sharm or cairo).
A definite Highlight
This was defintely the highlight to a wonderful tour of Egypt. We spent 4 wonderful nights at this hotel, which has the feel has the feel of staying at an Egyptian Millionaire's house with charming hosts.
We were made to feel most welcome during our stay, which was out of season, at a time when the hotel is unusually quiet. However the staff more than make up for the lack of guests and proved to be charming companions, teaching us a little arabic during our evenings in the bar.
The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are elegance personified. Our room was massive with a turkish hamman style bathroom set around a beautiful courtyard. During our stay there was no timetable, only our own, with the hotel staff going out of their way to provide breakfast whenever and wherever you wanted it. The hotel is a short taxi trip and a local ferry ride to Luxor, but is well worth the small expense to get there. It cost us about �4 sterling by return for the hotel to organise a taxi, and only about 10p for the short ferry trip, which is well recommended if you want to experience Egypt. The hotel were also able to organise a fantastic sunset sail on a felucca up the nile, where we had our own boat with two guides for about an hour and a half, all for about �5 sterling for both of us. The crew even made us a cup of tea...
I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough, and can only suggest that the last guests did not put their heart and soul into experiencing this hotel. Like all things in life, if you put in a little effort with the staff etc, you will reap rewards, and leave with many fond memories, not to mention friends.
We will definitely return to this hotel.
A huge disappointment
Our stay at Al Moudira was to have been the high point at the end of our trip, but was anything but. The place was soul-less, uninviting and very poorly maintained. The welcome was non-existent; the garden stewn with weeds and the whole place had a sad and abandoned atmosphere. My wife and I are staggered that other guests at this hotel have apparently given it a five star rating - which beggars belief.
A magic place
A very special and beautiful hotel. This is more a boutique hotel than a standard luxury hotel. It is a very relaxing place for soul and mind. It is a 20 minutes ride away from center of Luxor, but that is no problem as taxi is very cheap and easy to find. If you appreciate a beautiful setting and special interial design, go there. If you arrive after dark, you are lucky because then you can really feel the magic of this place
Beautiful and relaxed
We have just returned from six nights at this stylish but relaxed hotel. The hotel itself is a beautiful mixture of Moorish and Italian architecture dotted with small courtyards and gardens. The rooms are large. We thought the first room we were shown was nice but not exceptional. We were moved without much fuss to a spectacular room: it had columns, antique furniture and even its own internal fountain!
The place looked well run and in very good condition. Both the owner and the assistant manager were apparent and keeping an eye on everything. An earlier review talked about an air of neglect, salt deposits from rising damp etc. That review strikes us as just being plain wrong. The "salt deposits" were the chalky residue left as a result of the trompe d'oiel paint scheme which is the whole theme of the place - there was no rising damp (remember this is on the edge of the desert!). Gardens were also well cared for.
Food was generally good and the menu changed every day (although there were variations on a theme which returned over the space of a few days). Food and wine were reasonably priced (about 300LE for two people with a bottle of Egyptian wine) and served in a very attractive courtyard.
There were a few drawbacks. It is in an isolated position, about 20/25 minutes from Luxor (60LE by taxi) through some fairly biblical-like villages and occasional heavily armed police check points. But it is about 20 minutes from the Valley of the Kings and the other sites of the West Bank, so closer to those than many of the hotels in Luxor. One guy on reception's English was not good and this led to a slightly amateurish start but generally staff and service were good.
Highly recommended if you want to escape the hassle of Luxor and mix sightseeing with relaxation by the pool.
Pretty but lacking in substance
My wife and I just stayed for 4 nights and enjoyed it mostly. The Moudira is a very beautiful spot, very unique to luxury hotels and is a great place to relax at the end of a hot and dusty Egyptian day. The food is very good and the breakfast is very good also (for Egypt) and not that overpriced. The rooms are very large and well kept and unique in their decoration. Bed was very comfortable, bathroom enormous and nice, good shower pressure. The hotel is a bit isolated from the scene in Luxor as you probably know already and the hotel has worked out taxi fares that are public knowledge. This is good and bad, since the taxis know the prices for the various destinations, there is no bargaining to be done, I tried. This results in higher costs for you, but the no-bargain taxi ride may be worth something if you aren't up for the usual hassle. The hotel is close to the sights on the West Bank, we had a driver for a 5 hour tour for only about $25US. To get to the East Bank, I would recommend taking a taxi to the ferry for 25 pounds and then the ferry is only 1 pound, if not its 50 pounds by taxi to town. The ferry is not fancy but it gives you the chance to see how the real people get around and we talked to some locals who were nice, of course they did try to get us to go for a camel ride. The service at the hotel is not great. The guy who checked us out wasn't competent on the credit card machine and charged me twice by accident. The maid service is suspect, they took a wet towel off the floor and hung it up to be used again. The waiters are very slow but try hard to please. The bug situation wasn't good either, we got bites in our room and in the public areas, so bring bug spray for sure. The hotel offered a bad exchange rate and the mixed drinks were absolutely ridiculously price, this leaves a perception of being gouged and that is not the best feeling to have when you are already spending upwards of $200 per night. We considered moving to a hotel in town but it wasn't worth the hassle. If I ever went back to Luxor I would stay in town either the Winter Palace, Mercure, or one of the others are more central.
A bleak experience
We checked in to this hotel after a wonderful 7 day cruise on Sunboat III. We planned 4 nights R&R at the end of our holiday. We were bitterly disappointed. The hotel is seriously run down with a pervasive air of neglect. The flower beds, of which there are many, haven't been weeded or tended for many months and the shrubs poke through a jungle of undergrowth. The walls are stained throughout with salt deposits due to rising damp and there is peeling paint everywhere. We received no welcome and our room was vast and bleak. We checked out after half an hour. Interestingly two other guests from Sunboat III were checked in to the Al Moudira for 2 nights. When we told them we were leaving they said that they had thought about it but had decided to stick it out as they were leaving 36 hours later. Later that evening we ran in to them in the bar of our new hotel. They said they had managed 5 hours but then found it so overwhelmingly depressing, they could stand it no longer. Perhaps it looks better in very hot weather. We were there in mid-February when it was quite cool.
Hotel gem on Luxor's west bank
We learned about the hotel almost by accident, through a review in the Lonely Planet and then following up with the pictures on the hotel's web site. The beauty of the hotel surpasses the pictures on the web site. The hotel has many pluses: an intimate, quite environment, with beautiful plantings; large rooms; charming decor; excellent food in the dining room (steer towards the Lebanese and North African dishes for the very best cooking); helpful staff; and a wonderful masseur on call. The only potential limitation is that the hotel is on the West bank of the Nile and visiting the town of Luxor itself on the East bank of the Nile requires a little time and effort (manageable).
War and peace
I stayed at the Al Moudira on the eve of war with Iraq. It was almost completely deserted and there were very few tourists around Luxor in general. The hotel is architecturally stunning and the pool is beautiful. The rooms were huge and excellent but had a somewhat unfinished feel, as if they ran out of money and had to resort to the trompe-de-oeil decor as a result. "Al Moudira" means "the boss" in Arabic and Zeina, the proprieter, is a real "Grande dame" and a great character. She couldn't do enough for us and lent me a suit so that we could dine at the Winter Palace across the river. The west bank of the Nile is much less developed than the other side which can be dreadfully touristy - the real Egypt is much in evidence here. We felt really safe and were provided with an armed police escort whenever we took a taxi into town. Food in the restaurant was mediocre, but that may reflect the desparate economic circumstances brought on by the immanent war. I suspect that once things have returned to normal, Zeina will bring Al Moudira up to scratch and make it one of the great hotels in Egypt - she had an air of determination which is not easily beaten.

I recently purchased the AOC 22" LCD TV (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...688919700
No issues on TV quality. BUT when I connect my PC via HDMI and try to set the resolution to 1680 x 1050, there is some flickering in application windows and the text appears a bit fuzzy. When I try other lower resolutions (1440x900, 1280x720) the flickering goes away, but the text is still fuzzy.
Here are my hardware specs:
LCD TV - AOC L22W761 (manual says that it should support 1680 x 1050)
Graphics - integrated ATI Radeon XPress 1250 (maybe this is the problem?)
I've updated my graphics drivers, but it didn't do anything. I tried the ATI Catalyst Control Center to manipulate some of the settings, but couldn't find anything there, either.
Does anyone have any suggestions or thoughts on these issues? I'd really appreciate any input at this point. Thanks everyone.

I would say get a decent graphic card, mine was 89 bucks.
I'd download the Drivers for the monitor first and give that a try. It made a HUGE difference even when dealing with my IBM 19" LCD - Also needed them for my Dell 20" WFP display.
Quote from Specboy :Not the video card. My old Nvidia GeForce 4 32MB PCI can support 1600x1200 with no issues or flickering. No issues either with my Radeon Xpress 200m on a 22" LCD either.

Quote from lounging98 :Have you tried VGA? I had an older monitor which gave issues like this when using a digital source HDMI/DVI, but worked fine over VGA. Most likely you're running your TV setup through component, and don't see any issues.
I haven't tried downloading drivers for the monitor. The website indicates that the drivers are for LCD monitors. Is it the same if I download for an LCD TV? I'm not too educated when it comes to stuff like this.
Yes, I tried VGA, but I wanted to set up dual monitor, so I had to use the VGA port for the second monitor. Also, the max resolution for VGA on my LCD TV is 1440x900. I wanted to get the full 1680x1050 out of it by going HDMI. I guess HDMI isn't really made for PC signals? No idea.
Next step is Monitor drivers.

It's a year old, but the info's pretty interesting. Maybe my lcd tv doesn't do this 1:1 pixel mapping.

In partnership with Barnes & Noble, the Mount Pleasant Police Department launched the Reading Patrol Program today at the Mount Pleasant Towne Centre. Police Chief Carl Ritchie welcomed the young readers to the program.
More than 35 children attended the new program and were treated to readings of Clark the Shark and Llama Llama as well as special crafts.
We would like to thank Barnes & Noble for their community spirit and for allowing us to host our program in their bookstore, said Sgt. Les Mauldin.
The Reading Patrol Program is simple: build a connection early on with the youth of our community, and they will remember it when facing difficult decisions. We want to build bridges one book at a time and we plan to read to children in a fun and congenial atmosphere that will lend itself to making lifetime connections.
The program is free and meets at Barnes & Noble every third Saturday of the month.
For more information about the Reading Patrol Program, contact Sgt. Mauldin by email at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 843-881-8242.

General Motor, Where Will You Go? 0 commentsSep 30, 2012 8:30 PM | about stocks: GM
In 2008, Fed gave 50 billion$ financial aid to General Motor to
avoid the collapse of this big company. With the crisis passing
over, GM is doing better and better now.
GM emerged from bankruptcy, and started to make money now.
In the first half of 2012, GM has a profit of 2.5 billion$ after tax.
In 2010, GM made 4.7 billion $. In 2011, GM made 7.6 billion$.
GM sold properties and equity to pay off the debt to Treasury.
25 billion $ has been paid off. The left 25 billion$ was paid with
27% percent of whole shares of GM, approximate 500 Million sh
ares. The break even price for Treasury is 53$/share. Now,
GM is hanging around 24$.
Where will GM go now?
Please Check here for new update.
It should be upside, though the economic environment
is still quite complex. My reasons are in the following.
1. GM has very good performance in China.
China is the No.1 automobile market in the world. GM has spents
years of time to developing the market and brand good reputation.
GM got big success in China. The number of Buick brand automobile sold in China is 4 times of that sold in America. It is a huge success. Without China market, Buick could already be gone
with Saturn, Pontiac Saab, when GM dropped those brands in 2009.
China Automobile market is still growing. And GM will keep benefiting from this market.
In Aug 2012, the conflict between Japan and China is rapidly aggravated when Japan government announced the nationalization of Diao yu Island. China government released several official documents and laws to claim the sovereignty of Diao yu Island, and warn Japan several time about their wrong estimation.
Protest and parade bursted out in many metropolitan areas of China. Many Japan brand cars were damaged on site.

Tennessee community.
Free 7-day trial!
Kickoff against Austin Peay is still 30 days away. Much can be and must be accomplished between now and then. The Bermuda on Haslam Field and Shields-Watkins Field is going to get a workout. Here's a look at what the IT staff needs to see from camp:
Riley Blevins' thoughts
Gone are Cordarrelle Patterson's 1,858 all-purpose yards. Justin Hunter's nine touchdowns count for nothing now. Zach Roger's reliability is well in the rearview mirror.
The numbers reset in 2013. As does Tennessee's need for playmakers at wide receiver.
The Big Orange is in dire need for the dust to settle at wideout during fall camp. The Vols look to replace 2,352 yards of receiving with a depleted corps. First-year receivers coach Zach Azzanni works with just three players who recorded a catch in 2012 — Alton "Pig" Howard nabbed 13 balls, Vincent Dallas hauled in nine and Jacob Carter tallied eight. Cody Blanc saw the field but didn't make a catch.
In a perfect world, redshirt freshman Jason Croom and Drae Bowles will blossom into legitimate options and Devrin Young will add a jolt in the slot. But for now, there are more question than answers.
In order for the Vols to stay afloat in year No. 1 of the Butch Jones era, freshman will need to have an immediate impact. There are promising youngsters on roster, but will they be enough? Signees from the 2013 class like Paul Harris, Marquez North, Ryan Jenkins and Josh Smith need to hit the ground running.
Upgrading at the receiver position in 2014 has been a priority for the Tennessee staff, as seen with the additions of Eric Lauderdale, Kameel Jackson, Dominique Booth and others. But, can the Vols weather the storm before the reinforcements arrive? That's a question that begs to be answered in the coming weeks. All eyes should be peeled on the competition at the perimeter.
Randy Moore's thoughts
The first thing I want to see in Tennessee's fall camp is leadership from the quarterback position. I probably have a higher opinion of Tyler Bray than most people, but I must admit he didn't provide the level of leadership you need from the QB spot. Given the offensive limitations of this Vol squad, it desperately needs a leader at quarterback, even if he isn't the most talented passer in camp.
I also want to see a team with conviction. I believe unfounded optimism will erode once the Vols go to Oregon and to Florida in Games 3 and 4. That's why I want to see a team built around the conviction that things are getting better ... even when the scoreboard suggests otherwise.
Offense: I want to see running backs break tackles and get some yards beyond what the blocking gives them. I don't know what the YAC (yards after contact) stats were for Tennessee backs last fall but I'm sure it was an embarrassingly low number.
I'd like to see some of the young wide receivers blossom quickly. This is the greenest wideout corps I've seen in three decades covering the Vols, so some of the unproven guys really need to step up in a hurry.
Defense: I want to see a much-improved pass rush. Given how suspect Tennessee is in the secondary, the Vols desperately need to protect their defensive backs by getting some pressure on opposing quarterbacks. Otherwise, the pass defense could be almost as bad in 2013 as it was in 2012.
Special Teams: I want to see consistency from the kickers. I'd like to see Matt Darr win the punting job, so Michael Palardy can concentrate on place-kicking and kickoffs. And I'd like to see Palardy (who always does well in practice) show he's ready to carry over that success into the games. Finally, I'd like to see someone provide a big-play dimension on returns similar to what Cordarrelle Patterson did last fall, although I realize that's probably a pipe dream.
Danny Parker's thoughts
Think back to the last postseason game Tennessee played — the 2010 Music City Bowl. In spite of the result, Big Orange Country had reason to be excited with so many freshmen contributing to a team that was a hair away from being 8-5.
Slight attrition and players departing early for the NFL Draft impacted this roster years later, but if what they say about the Southeastern Conference is true, referencing winning in the trenches, then this squad should get bowl eligible. Ten seniors between the two lines in the two-deep should mean punching some foes in the mouth for a change. However, the skill players need to show vast improvement after a below-average spring with this first-year coaching staff. That means putting down the video game controller and cell phone and getting to work using the finest facilities in the country. Did they do it? Have kids like Cody Blanc, Drae Bowles and Devrin Young learned to play receiver? Show me.
Don't count on a true freshman, they rarely post gaudy numbers at receiver their first year in college. That goes for all of you thinking Marquez North is going to step right in for Cordarrelle Patterson and the Vols won't miss a beat. You're kidding yourself. That group has skill but it takes time and this is the SEC.
Another concern is health. Sounds weird, right? Not one play of camp has gone down — but still. Linebacker Curt Maggitt could be a playmaker if used right. Michael Palardy has complained of issues in the past but has every leg specialist duty in his final year. Defensive lineman Maurice Couch, wide receiver Jason Croom, running back Rajion Neal, cornerback Nyshier Oliver, tackle Antonio Richardson and others have all missed games due to their bodies. Football is like being a pitcher in baseball…you're rarely going to be healthy heading between the lines. Can you play through the pain? Will you wave off the trainers? Let's see it.
Quarterbacking coordinator Mike Bajakian's offense is as much of a mental thing as anything. No matter who the guy is, he need only take care of the football and distribute it to the playmakers. The position group that concerns me the most is Willie Martinez' unit in the secondary. No stats from 2012 are needed and an initial two-deep that has first-year players Malik Foreman, Riyahd Jones and Cameron Sutton listed shows an overhaul is in effect. With both Brent Brewer and Dontavis Sapp on the field at linebacker, that group should be much faster and more productive dropping into coverage. If Brian Randolph is his old self, that alone is a giant upgrade. What I need to seed is the guys on the island match up with NFL-bound receivers like Amari Cooper and Jordan Matthews and win.
To give the DBs aid, the edge rushers need to start living up to their potential. Corey Miller and Jacques Smith were high school All-Americans. It's put-up-or-shut-up time. These Vols have gotten tutelage under Ed Orgeron (while committed prospects), Chuck Smith, Lance Thompson, John Palermo and now Steve Stripling. That's a vast amount of knowledge passed along. Use it and be productive. If Jeff Driskel, James Franklin, Marcus Mariota and A.J. McCarron still have the ball in their hands on third-and-eight for longer than 3 seconds and they're not fearing for their lives, then the chains are going to move and the scoreboard is going to light up.
Lastly, practice with this staff leading the way in its ninth month on the job should be the fastest we've ever seen on The Hill. I'm anxious to see how the offense responds. If the Vols go three-and-out four times in a row and roll about 65 seconds off the clock each possession, then the defense is going to get gassed. In order for an opposing defense to be exhausted come fourth quarter, Tennessee has to have the ball and go-go-go in the first three periods. Who scared the life out of Auburn in the BCSNCG? Who beat mighty Alabama in Tuscaloosa last year? Answer: teams with pedal-to-the-metal offenses. It can work.
Josh Woodward's thoughts
The temperature in Knoxville has cooled some and football is in the air. With the depth chart being released Tuesday, it's go time. Here are a few things I would like to see as fall practice gets underway.
Quarterback, Quarterback, Quarterback. It all starts here for me. They have all wide receivers back from spring injuries so let's see them make some throws. They have had all summer to learn the offense and get in tune with the tight ends and receivers. Will Justin Worley take control of the starting job? I think he can, but I think Peterman's mobility fits this offense more. I want to see the ball come out quick with smart decisions. Interceptions this season will kill this team, so a caretaker of this offense is important. I don't want to see either of the true freshmen. I believe it would be better for the program for a redshirt for both.
The wide receiver position is the second biggest question to me. They have some talent at the position. I would like to see Jason Croom and Vincent Dallas get some early confidence. If they can be the go-to guys it will help bring some of the other young talent along. I would like to see Alton Howard catch the ball. I hope he worked on his catching skills this summer and plant his feet without falling down. I want to see Jacob Carter on the field on third down. This kid can catch anything, best hands I have seen in awhile.
On the defensive side of the ball it starts with cornerbacks. They have faster players at the position this year, which will help tremendously. Really if they just don't fall down they will be better than last year. I want to see the safeties take good angles to the football and have good tackle form.
With Tennessee going back to the 4-3 defense I would like to see more disruption by the front four. I would like to see some meanness there also, a little fire up front will go a long way this season. The linebackers need to make tackles. They are a solid unit and will be the strength of the defense in my opinion.
Lastly from the coaching staff, I would like to see a sense of urgency, which I know they will. I want to see them working on tackling and special teams. I would like them to keep grinding on the recruiting trail during the season. If they can keep this class together, it will be special.

LUBBOCK - It's been nearly 2 years since Pete Richardson led Oklahoma's largest classification - Class 6A - in rushing and scoring.
If he ever took that achievement for granted - running for 1,700 yards and piling up 29 touchdowns as a high school junior - he probably never will again.
That's the last time he spent a full season healthy.
As a second-semester Texas Tech freshman, Richardson finally is getting a chance to knock off nearly two years of rust.
His senior season at Muskogee, Okla., ended when he suffered a broken leg in the fifth game, and then he suffered a broken foot that wrecked his redshirt season at Tech.
Tech coach Mike Leach generally detests injuries as alibis, but he seems to give Richardson a pass in that regard.
"The thing is, throughout his career - really until a while into the off-season, this semester - he hasn't been able to run,'' Leach said. "I mean, he's not been able to run to his full potential, so we were always curious how well he could run.
"We'd never seen it. Turns out he's fast like we thought he was, but for a year and a half we had no idea.''
The last two spring practices, Richardson has more or less split time at running back with projected starter Shannon Woods.
Fellow freshman Kobey Lewis missed workouts Monday and Wednesday because of a death in the family, and Taurance Rawls is out all spring with a knee injury.
Thus, Richardson has at least gotten to handle the ball a lot.
"He's doing real well. He's healed up,'' Leach said.
Richardson said he's not back to tiptop form - the kind that allowed him to rush for 354 yards and four touchdowns in the season opener his senior year.
"No, I'm not. I feel like I'm getting there,'' he said after Wednesday's practice. "I feel like the more work I get, the more comfortable I'll get back to feeling.''
The 5-foot-9, 185-pound Richardson came in with Lewis and Edward Britton as the running back recruits in the 2005 signing class, having turned down Texas A&M, Kansas State and Oklahoma State.
Richardson hurt his left foot in preseason workouts but tried to keep quiet and keep practicing. Eventually, he told someone and wound up undergoing surgery in September for what turned out to be a broken fifth metatarsal.
Of course, putting a couple of busy spring workouts together is a far cry from getting into position to play in games.
Woods has been the heir apparent to Taurean Henderson ever since he turned heads during his first fall on campus.
Though Britton has since been moved to flanker, Richardson said walking into his first college camp and seeing several other talented running backs when he arrived was an eye opener.
"It's a lot of competition here,'' he said. "For me, it didn't give me a comfort level. Like right now, I feel like I've got to do everything right.''

In fact, they brought the European notion of the trouser without a full suit to the U.S. and nothing's been the same ever since.
Louis Raphael pants come in three different styles including the Louis Raphael Luxe, which features worsted wool that's luxurious to the touch; the Louis Raphael Rosso, which is suitable for any occasion and features a blend of microfiber, silk, wool and cashmere; and the Louis Raphael Braggi, which is made for everyday wear, intended to last and is even machine-washable.
Other details of pants made by Louis Raphael make them standouts. For instance, they include Coruzo buttons, a signature label and V-notch tailoring. They look like they're hand-sewn and feature strong pockets that won't rip out or tear. The zipper is reinforced, making it longer-lasting and more comfortable and the D stitching offers even more reinforcement over seams that get the most stretch and strain. And you won't be able to live without the French fly, which keeps the front of your pants flat, always leaving your outfit looking freshly pressed. With details like these, it's no wonder why Louis Raphael pants are the talk of the town.

Embracing and heartfelt, genuine and environmentally minded, classic and contemporary — perhaps even an eclectic mix of the two — as long as it reflects a personal and meaningful take on the world.
That's where interior design is headed in 2016: toward homes that neutralize the complexity and stress of life by becoming retreats of greater authenticity and peacefulness rather than places full of generic and relatively meaningless stuff.
"In design, people are talking about well-being across the board, physical and emotional," said New York interior designer Robin Wilson, founder and CEO of Robin Wilson Home and author of "Clean Design: Wellness for Your Lifestyle." "It is not just about beautiful anymore."
It's more about soul and meaning, said Charleston designer Beverly Bohan of Haute Design. She describes a home integrating the best of contemporary and classical pieces in a clean approach that creates an environment that's about you and what you stand for.
"It's no longer about buying to buy and just putting stuff out there," Bohan said. "It's not disposable. It's more thoughtful ... genuine, personal. It's about how you live, your personality, your values, what represents you and your philosophy of life."
"I think America is returning sentimental," she said.
Starting with color
Among the home decor trends are the new chosen colors of the year: Rose Quartz and Serenity for Pantone, and Simply White for Benjamin Moore.
It is the first time that Pantone, the world-renowned color expert and provider of color matching systems which has been releasing a color of the year for the past 15 years, presents two colors.
Pantone's website says, "As consumers seek mindfulness and well-being as an antidote to modern day stresses, welcoming colors that psychologically fulfill our yearning for reassurance and security are becoming more prominent. Joined together, Rose Quartz and Serenity demonstrate an inherent balance between a warmer embracing rose tone and the cooler tranquil blue, reflecting connection and wellness as well as a soothing sense of order and peace."
According to Pantone, the combination of the two colors challenges traditional perceptions of color association, reflecting the current gender blur in fashion and other areas of design as well as "societal movements toward gender equality and fluidity, the consumer's increased comfort with using color as a form of expression, a generation that has less concern about being typecast or judged and an open exchange of digital information that has opened our eyes to different approaches to color usage."
Together with Rose Quartz and Serenity, a nod to millennials that the design community greeted unenthusiastically, white is trending back, with its seemingly million shades, says Wilson.
While years back deeply colored walls were in vogue, dictating the furnishings and art of an entire house, classic whites are trending back as well as light blue ceilings that bring calm to the supine.
"Whites are the hottest thing to do right now. It is classic," Wilson said.
New York decorator Marsha Russell, who recently moved to Charleston, said new color ideas sprout every year purporting to capture what makes people feel good or horrible when walking into a room.
Overall, though, "I think people gravitate toward the colors that make them feel good. If red makes your socks go up and down, that's great ... But neutral colors are always in vogue, no matter what people say."
And, picking a white should keep you busy enough: The paint retailer Benjamin Moore alone offers more than 150 different shades of white. What's more, between all the companies combined, shades of white and off-white number in the thousands, said Roy Cole, owner of Brewers Paint Center in downtown Charleston.
There also are about half a dozen whites approved by the Charleston Historic Foundation, he said. Whites are enough to get anyone into an argument, and this year's Simply White "is not even white," he said with a hint of bafflement.
Handmade, authentic
In other house trends, designers at Southeastern Galleries are seeing home decor that looks "cleaner and lighter weight," said Nathaniel King, assistant to the company's president.
That includes lots of metallic and texturing in what are called casegoods (hard surfaces such as woods and metals) and a scaled-down look in upholstery. "No skirts, cleaner lines. Clean in trim, but not edgy contemporary," King said. And everything lighter in color.
Russell, meanwhile, whose vision of design stems as much from the bones of a house as from the authentic aesthetic of the people who live there, said people are gravitating toward the handmade and handcrafted, and will be for some time to come, she predicts.
The impulse may come from a lost past — lost family heirlooms — or a lost simplicity of life, driven perhaps by our increased mobility and the ubiquity of technology.
Whether it's a handwoven carpet, embroidered fabric, glassware or ceramics, made in the United States or in tribal Africa, "people want to see the hand in things," she said. "They want to see who did it.
"I think the need for connection to the past never goes away; it reminds us of people we have known, places lived or visited that we want to remember, or maybe exotic locations we would love to experience one day," Russell said.
"The Internet has brought an introduction to products from distant cultures, as well as introduced us to artisans working in small towns close by that we didn't know anything about ... I think these will be our new heirlooms."
In that same vein, she said, wallpapers and textiles are going to have a more painterly feel, with blurred lines and lots of texture, she said. "There is a move toward a softer focus, which goes hand in hand with the handcrafted feel."
Geometric patterns continue to be popular, Russell said. "They look great with all the soft, painterly, watercolor-feel fabrics that look hand painted, and fresh. There are so many possibilities with fabrics now."
The return to handcrafted and textured reflects what Bohan of Haute Design views as people's desire to individualize their home with the family heirloom, or mom's handmade quilt, or repurposing the fur coat that one no longer wears but gets draped on a bench as a nod to the past.
"It's about people making something 'theirs,' " said Bohan, who considers her design "transitional," a term that captures the marriage of traditional and contemporary for a timeless, classical feel in which everything is specifically chosen.
"I love when I hear people say, this reflects who I am ... Authenticity and integrity are coming back. It's about value," she said.
Bohan said design also is leaning toward a less cluttered, leaner look.
"It's a time of cleansing. People are living in a more purposeful way," she said. "They are buying what they need, and they don't buy it if they don't love it. They care about comfort and that things represent them, how they live, how they dress, who they are."
Health and beauty
Perhaps it goes hand in hand, then, that design is trending toward choices that make homes more salutary and eco-friendly, says Wilson, an expert on healthy homes.
People want beautiful, sustainable, affordable, and healthy: no sneezing or wheezing, no off-gassing, energy efficient and safe.
"Everyone talks about the global ecosystem; your home is your personal ecosystem," said Wilson. "You need a place that is your sanctuary. You have to ask yourself what you can do to make your space safe in addition to beautiful."
Going into 2016, among the hottest home design trends on Wilson's list that contribute to the integrity of that ecosystem are:
Quartz stone countertops, praiseworthy for offering multiple options, lower maintenance, antibacterial properties and durability.
Entry foyer or mudroom benches where people can pause to leave their shoes and outerwear to prevent toxins from entering the home.
Under-mounted sinks, which keep things cleaner by not trapping bacteria in the lip of the sink.
Open kitchens and great rooms, which are more sociable, more energy-efficient, and offer greater flow of air.
Home offices, offering a dedicated space to separate work from leisure.
Pantries for the convenient and proper storage of bulk purchases.
Mechanical window shades, controlled by timer or even a smartphone, that move automatically to keep out the summer sun or to let in the winter sunshine; to protect furniture and artwork, and to enhance security.
Home remote controls that allow you to manage security, temperature, lights, window shades and other features from your smartphones, even while traveling.
Curbless showers and other intergenerational or aging-in-place features that allow for safe living even while aging.
These trends suggest a practicality in living and an emphasis on well-being in the home, a trend that Russell welcomes.
"People want a smart home, and wellness is certainly part of that," she said.
