text: ARLINGTON, Texas -- When the Dallas Cowboys open training camp practices in Oxnard, Calif., on Sunday, several players could be slowed in their return from injuries. Quarterback Tony Romo (back) has been cleared to practice, but defensive end DeMarcus Ware (shoulder), defensive tackle Jay Ratliff (sports hernia) guard Mackenzy Bernadeau (shoulder) and Danny Coale (knee) could be limited in the early portions of training camp practices. "We'll have to monitor those guys and a couple of guys and see how they are," Garrett said Thursday afternoon from Cowboys Stadium. "We'll do the conditioning test on day 1 of training camp and see where they are physically after that and make some decision. We have a plan for each of those guys going into it, based on what their injury has been and different start dates for some guys, different ways to work back into training camp and work back into football."

New Delhi, June 12: Pramod Mahajan, once widely considered the BJPs future among the second-rung leaders, has literally regained his voice in the party, hinting at the emergence of new power equations.
The general secretarys loyalist in Maharashtra, Prakash Jawadekar, has been put in-charge of the partys media cell and appointed a spokesperson.
Mahajan, maintaining a low profile after his exit from the Centre last January, appears to be regaining his hold in the party now that BJP chief M. Venkaiah Naidu is busy undoing his controversial statement on the party leadership.
Jawadekars association with Mahajan goes back to their RSS days when both were pracharaks.
Party spokesperson Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi who will retain the post said at a briefing that Jawadekar will hold the dual positions until the Assembly elections in October-November.
Jawadekar, however, said later that he would be shifting permanently to Delhi from Mumbai after the BJPs four-day chintan baithak (introspection session) ends on June 20.
Mahajan, the BJPs overall election coordinator, has kept himself out of the 11 Ashoka Road headquarters since his return to the party, preferring to involve himself in poll preparations in Rajasthan where he is the partys chunav prabhari (election in-charge).
Then the controversy over who would lead the BJP in the next general poll Atal Bihari Vajpayee or his deputy, L.K. Advani cropped up, fuelled by certain remarks made by the party president.
Naidu, who was perceived as a proactive president unlike his predecessors, was determined not to let the BJP submerge its identity in the National Democratic Alliance governments.
His approach had earned him kudos from the party cadre until he made his controversial comment, which was seen to undermine Vajpayees authority while he was out of the country.
The BJP now considers Naidu to be on a weak wicket; a party president who may have to spend his time and energy on saving his job.
So Jawadekars appointment is being seen as the likely beginning of new power equations within the party, where Naidu will not be the nucleus.
The BJPs campaign committee met today and decided to release separate manifestos for Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Delhi and Chhattisgarh, each of which will go to the polls this year. Mizoram, the fifth state in the election line-up, was not mentioned.

The Mexican auto industry includes many foreign companies that export their vehicles across the globe. It has recently called out for more tier-two suppliers, according to Auto News. Those want to take advantage of this shortage must act quickly.
The advantage of tier-two suppliers is they can build in Mexico more cheaply than companies can import the same auto parts from the U.S. Companies that manufacture in Mexico have the advantage of lower wages, along with cheaper land and local governments that are very friendly to foreign companies. Additionally, there is a ready market for auto parts in Mexico because of the vast number of cars under manufacture there, including U.S., Asian and European cars.
Doing the math, the cost of importing products into Mexico for the tier-one industry totally $38.8 billion, but this number can be reduced with tier-two supplies doing the work instead.
"It's a question of reducing this $38 billion total to $25 billion by 2019," said Oscar Albin, executive president of INA, the national association of suppliers. "That's our goal."
Companies have begun to look for tier-two suppliers
Although initially, according to Auto News, companies from Japan and Germany wanted parts from their native countries, they have begun to recognize that the products made in Mexico for a fraction of the cost are of equally high quality as anything made elsewhere.
Automakers in Mexico are manufacturing at a fast pace - at the rate they are building, they might beat Brazil's auto output for the first time in a decade, according to Auto News. If they want to compete with Brazil for prices, they will have to produce tier-two products more cheaply, which creates a niche for foreign companies that want to expand.
Other niche areas where U.S. companies can make money
Another industry where foreign business will be coming in droves is the energy sector. Exxon Mobil and BP are both excited to start drilling in Mexico, according to Bloomberg.
"The potential is great," Tony Payan, director of the Mexico Center at Rice University's Baker Institute for Public Policy in Houston, said in an interview with Bloomberg. "If they play it right, Mexico could become a major oil producer and Mexico, the U.S. and Canada could come very close to energy independence."
Companies that build products for the oil sector, such as drill bits or other equipment, could find themselves making a lot of money from the oil sector.
Even companies that don't drill or have anything to do with energy will benefit from cheaper gas and electricity as Mexico's production expands.

I must admit, that after clicking on these and finding out that I have to give out information, I am usually hesitant and just close the page and move on. I think it's more of just an annoyance than a fear of giving out the information, since the information is mostly company related.
Apr 11, 2008 at 3:14 UTC
I haven't really noticed the Tech Links but I will start looking for them now. As a side note I like the Surveys to get an idea of what others are thinking.

I'll second DinkLock. Anything that prompts for personal information (even if its office information) is an immediate turn off. I think a lot of people see an information form and immediately think "spammer".

Thanks so much for the feedback. We'll be making some changes over the coming weeks which might put your mind more at ease. I'll let you know when those changes are made since I'd love your feedback on the improved version.

KS Services is an IT service provider.
I have seen them, but haven't clicked on many in last few months as non of the topics have been on anything I was interested at the time.
However I have to add that after spending much of my time one day last week unsubscribing to mailing list after mailing list then I would be put off now by anything asking for my details.
Also the amount of suppliers who call.... endlessly

The guy I've been seeing basically the whole year has recently started tagging and getting tagged by a girl. My best friend knows her as they use to work together. She's sorta come out of no where in the last month. At first I didn't think much of it because it seemed like they were just mates but some of the things said can be quite flirty.
We had a talk the other day where I said it kinda makes me feel a bit shit and he said that they are close and he mucks around with her like he does shell ( one of his best friends wives) and he said he hasn't slept with her or anything like that.
I just saw she's still tagging him and he's replying. It's kind of annoyed me. I have a pretty good idea of who his friends are and I know she's just come out of the blue. Do I have a right to be annoyed?

I have successfully completed 3 years of Bachelor degree and Honours degree in psychology without any prior knowledge of statistics, thanks to Alex! From my first year to the 4th year Alex has taught me more about statistics than my lecturers. Alex's calm, very thorough and supportive style of teaching is outstanding! Alex has helped me through my statistical challenges with ease and he was available to help in the evenings and weekends. I can highly recommend Alex to anyone from the beginners to advanced psyc students or anyone who straggles with statistics. Many thanks Alex!
I got my statistics exam results back!! :D I did really well. Got HD (93%). And 100% in my stats labs which goes towards 10% of my grade. Plus I got 95% in my research report for another psyc subject! So proud of myself! Thanks for all your tutoring it really helped more than you can imagine. I don't think I would have done nearly as well had it not been for you explaining the logic behind everything for me haha. Now I just have to maintain this average for the finals!
Very prompt reply, great explanation on step by step analysis. I would recommend Alex to anyone who needs help on SPSS. Terrific experience! :)
Alex is awesome and super helpful. He helped edit my document, ensuring that my words were concise and sophisticated. He criticised my assignment and gave me construct feedback on how to improve its quality.
Alex has tutored me in Research Methods (Stats) during my Grad Dip and Honours in Psychology. He is very patient, knowledgeable and helpful, and I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone who needs stats tutoring.
Alex was really helpful. He helped me construct a formula to use for my assignments and took the time to go through my specific problems. Would definitely recommend him.

|Eugene Ludwig
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Eugene Ludwig was U.S. Comptroller of the Currency from 1993 to 1998 during the Clinton Administration, a period characterized by significant deregulation of the financial services industry. He later joined Deutsche Bank ( DB) as vice chairman, before founding Promontory Financial Group in 2001. A powerhouse consulting firm to the financial services industry, Promontory has advised clients including Citigroup ( C), Countrywide Financial, prior to its acquisition by Bank of America ( BAC), and Allied Irish Banks ( AIB), according to BusinessWeek. Promontory also advised Morgan Stanley ( MS) on its conversion to a bank holding company in 2008, according to a Morgan Stanley press release. Promontory will not identify its clients.
Ludwig is also managing partner of CapGen Financial, a financial services-focused private equity firm. The following interview has been edited. TheStreet:A lobbyist I spoke to believes you have an unfair advantage in that you are able to influence policy without having to register as a lobbyist yourself. What do you say to this? Ludwig: Our job at Promontory is to help companies figure out how to implement rules, not engage in fruitless arguments about the wisdom of Congress' creating those rules. When government says we want a better compliance system, we try to figure out how to build a better compliance system within the rules. That's our business. TheStreet:You are said to have an important role in shaping the financial reforms regulators are working on at the moment coming out of last year's Dodd Frank financial reform legislation. Please describe your role. Eugene Ludwig: I testified before Congress several times on the Dodd-Frank bill. My views were my own; I was not representing anyone. As an ex-regulator, I felt it was my duty to express my own views. As a matter of good public policy the country would be much better off with a single regulatory agency in the banking space rather than multiple agencies. A single agency would have one set of rules, and financial institutions would not have to answer to multiple regulators with all the confusion and expense this entails. I said this when I was Comptroller of the Currency fifteen years ago, even though some of my colleagues in the OCC preferred the status quo. My view was accepted by Treasury, but not by the Congress where each agency had its own set of champions protecting its perceived interest.

The Commonwealth of Nations is a multinational group of countries that still recognize the monarchs of the former United Kingdom as Head of State, which is currently Queen Elizabeth II. These nations are Australasia, Newfoundland, South Africa, and Scotland. Only one other nation recognizes the Queen of the Commonwealth as Head of State, but the nations of the Commonwealth does not recognize, is the Sorelist dictatorship of England.
The four countries of the Commonwealth of Nations were once part of the British Empire, which at one point covered a fifth of the world's surface. After the defeat of Britain in the Second Global War, discontent in the Dominions over having their foreign policy decided in London with no input from the Dominions lead to a series of conferences in the 1920s and 1930s that eventually saw Britain surrender much of its control over the dominions to the governments established there. While all the nations still shared a monarch and a similar system of democratic government, tensions between the homeland and colonies grew; British citizens believed that if the colonies and dominions were more supportive they could have won the war, while the dominions saw the lost war as a primarily European conflict that was enormously expensive to the colonies for the lack of governance and rights they were given. The rise of the Imperial Socialist Party in Britain lead to increasing tensions with the dominions as John Beckett tried to establish a stronger grip over the Empire. Only Canada, as the "premiere" Dominion, allied themselves with the Imperial Socialist Party, and only as the Canadian Civil War broke out in 1937. When Britain entered the Third Global War, Australasia and South Africa refused to join.
Prime Minister Lionel Logue, facing a political crisis with monarchists in Australasia demanding they support King Edward VIII, no matter the politics, and isolationists and liberals that wanted to keep out of the war (or, at least, not on the side of the National Socialist Britain), decided instead to take a third route. Visiting Prince Albert in November 1940, Prime Minister Logue asked Albert to accept being named the monarch of "a commonwealth of free constitutional monarchies." While hesitant at first, partially because of his pronounced stammer and his shy nature, eventually he was convinced, in no small part because of his wife Princess Elizabeth, to take the crown as King of Australasia.
The Act of Monarchy 1941 was quickly passed in Australasia's parliament, and given assent by the Governor General of Australasia, Sir Peter Fraser, on 19 March 1941 as his last official act before King George VI would take his regal place in Australasia. This law broke all ties to the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha and King Edward VIII, and establishing George VI and his family as the House of Windsor, named after the castle and royal palace north of London, as the new rulers of Australasia. Other nobility figures that had also fled England were given regal titles in Australasia, though these are all honorary, and gives no legal right or privilege. Peerages for the former House of Lords are still recognized, but Australasia refused to reform the second chamber of Parliament into a new House of Lords, and now the Lords is seen as more a social club than a political body. The first act that King George VI was to sign as King was the Neutrality Act of 1941. However, before he could, the Hong Kong Crisis with National Socialist China quickly escalated out of control, leading to a declaration of war.On 1 June, 1941, the Dominion of South Africa, lead by Prime Minister J. B. M. Hertzog, passed a similar act, naming King George VI as the King of South Africa. South Africa and Australasia established the Commonwealth of Nations in 1943, recognizing their "shared heritage of imperialism, governance, monarchy and ideals." When American troops invaded the island of Newfoundland in June 1944, resistance leader Joseph "Joey" Smallwood declared Newfoundland as a "reformed dominion," naming King George VI as their monarch. Newfoundland was later expanded in the peace that followed to include Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. Newfoundland joined the Commonwealth in 1945
The liberation of Scotland in Fall of 1944 lead to the establishment of the Kingdom of Scotland by Alexander Fleming, and King George VI being acknowledged as the King of Scotland, and they promptly joined the Commonwealth of Nations. Ireland, liberated before Scotland, proclaimed itself a republic, and cut all ties with the British monarchy and refused to join the Commonwealth of Nations. Quebec, after a heated debate, rejected membership into the Commonwealth as well. Other colonies of Britain were taken over by France, and therefore would not be allowed to join the Commonwealth.
When England was established by General Bernard Montgomery in 1945, Montgomery declared that England was still a constitutional monarchy, and they recognized King George VI as the head of the nation. However, as the government became increasingly dictatorial and Sorelist, King George VI refused to be crowned as King of England. It is said that when Montgomery sent an emissary to George to ask to become King and to allow England to join the Commonwealth, King George said; "I may be a Constitutional Monarch, but England has no constitution, and therefore no monarch."King George VI passed away in January 1954, and his daughter, Princess Elizabeth, would take the throne as Queen Elizabeth II. In a new development, the Queen decided that she would be individually crowned in each capital of the Commonwealth, to establish her place as Head of State and forge closer ties. One 8 June, 1954, she was first crowned in Sydney, before flying to Scotland to be crowned in Edinburgh on 10 October, 1954. She was in Pretoria, South Africa for 10 February 1955 to be crowned, and she was last crowned in Newfoundland on 30 April, 1955. Since this time, Queen Elizabeth II and her family have made it a point to visit all the realms as often as possible. The Queen visit at least one Commonwealth nation a year, with the heir to the throne Prince Charles and his siblings Princess Anne and Princes Andrew and Edward filing in the gap. Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, until her death in 2003, traveled widely and was a major symbol of the Commonwealth. Now in her late 80s, the Queen has announced that she will be unable to continue visiting the other realms, but remains active in Australasia.
South Africa had always been seen as a "black sheep" amongst the Commonwealth for it's racist attitudes to the majority black Africans that lived in the nation, especially after the horrors of the Third Global War. However, it wasn't until Queen Elizabeth II's first visit in 1955 to be crowned, and her interactions with African "residents" embarrassed Prime Minister Sir Jan Smuts, hero of South Africa's involvement in the Third Global War, and the downfall of his government in 1956. Harry Schwarz, leader of the opposition Unity Party, came to power in the next election, and over the opposition of the white British and Afrikaner establishment, abolished legalized racism and discrimination. While blacks in South Africa are still poorer compared to whites, they've made enormous political, cultural and economic strides since. Queen Elizabeth II, when asked on her Diamond Jubilee in January 2014, said the end of offical racism in South Africa would be her "greatest achievement."
The Commonwealth Nations, while strong allies with the US and other Juneau Pact nations, are also recognized as peacemakers, helping resolve issues and sending peacekeepers to trouble spots in Africa, Asia and South America when the Great Powers couldn't or wouldn't get involved.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by Zordon, Aug 27, 2014.
Skip Brainless is an idiot and even when he makes valid points, he's still wrong because he's an idiot and a coward.
Yeah but he was right in this clip. He praised the attitude and make up of Landry's teams.
Hopefully some of these young guys (Dez,Fred,Tyron,Zack,J.J., R. McClain,Dixon) can be the new rough riders. Pick up the flag and charge on, boys!!
Skip pick the dude from the team you want to cage fight. Super Beaz? Iron Leg Bailey? how about one of the ladies in the office? I thought no lol
I can see how that makes sense.
Interesting that rough riders has replaced "thugs". Making it more inclusive I see. Fact of the matter is we need more productive rough riders. Dez, Fred and DMurray are a good.start on offense. My concern is not enough reside on the defensive side. I'm hoping that Wilcox, DLAW and OSCAN can start a trend on that side, just not sure until the season progresses. Sure would be good to have more, but if they're not productive it's treading water. Also, let me get this off my chest now. After watching Church this preseason, I'm not sure he'll every fit the rough rider category. Don't get me wrong, he doesn't shy away from contact, but he doesn't strike fear in anyone as a S. Moreno owned him this last game and it's becoming a growing trend that he more than likely ends up on his back instead of the ball.carrier.
It's not a complaint as long as he creates TOs, but his production (especially forcing TOs) has to remain at a high level to be considered a cornerstone of the defense. Solid starter, but if we can get better, get better!
In the case of Skip Brainless, it makes perfect sense.
Water Pistol Pete........
Too much Skip Bayless, not enough Skip Bayless v. a flamethrower.
The only rough rider we have. Sadly plays offense, and can't any blocks off on opposing offense's(Dez)
Wilcox might be that guy, but it's a wait and see thing. I really hope we can stop picking these players up with the "Ware" attitude. The play? ok. Attitude? No
C'mon people. There is no need for senseless, tasteless, insensitive and crass remarks. I've had to delete many post some of which were fine except they were quoting deleted posts. Next one and the thread is closed.
The same Landry Skippy was critical of?
Props to Skip. Big Cowboys fan!...Tells it like it is...or at least gives out some pizzaz with his story as he makes a living in entertainment.
Sad but true
So many haters ITT
He's making a living by being a lying, loud mouth shock jock, don't know how anyone could give him props for that.
"Mans gotta make a living"
I like glitz and glamor. That's always been the Cowboys tradition. Otherwise, we're Kansas City.
It's one of the few things the Joneses do right.
yes indeed.

Please take a look at the form link below. There is too much spacing between the social media icons because there is some sort of white spacing on the left and right of each social media image and its taking up too much space. Each of the 10 social media links are very small but the white space on both sides is causing too much space to be used. Please let me know how this can be resolved.
I have also tried using the following CSS Code:

You can inject this css to fix the padding of the social media icons.

Fanshawe's Power cut
James Fanshawe is set to drop Mac's Power in class before attempting to land another big handicap before the end of the season.
Last Updated: 02/08/11 1:21pm
James Fanshawe is looking find a race in which Mac's Power can get his head in front before attempting to land another big handicap.
The five-year-old has gone close at Newbury, Ascot, and on Saturday in the Stewards' Cup this season, but is still searching an elusive success.
"He's come out of the race fine. He's just been a bit unlucky so far this year," said the Newmarket handler.
"Ideally he likes a bit more cut in the ground than there was at Goodwood but he still ran really well.
"We'll give him a bit of a break and just aim for some nice races in the autumn.
"His handicap mark has stayed the same (100) but in the big handicaps so much is dependant on the draw and the ground.
"It would just be nice to try and find a race that he could win next time.
"But, saying that, the handicaps is where the big money is.
"He's improving, but I'd really like to try and find a race he could go and win next time before going back for one of the big races."

In , the tale is also often known simply as ''''. This was one title used for a popular, abridged translation by Arthur Waley. The Waley translation has also been published as ''Adventures of the Monkey God''; and ''Monkey: Folk Novel of China''; and ''The Adventures of Monkey''.
The novel is a fictionalized account of the legends around the monk 's pilgrimage to India during the in order to obtain religious texts called sutras. The Bodhisattva , on instruction from the , gives this task to the monk and his three protectors in the form of disciples — namely , and — together with a dragon prince who acts as Xuánzàng's horse mount. These four characters have agreed to help Xuánzàng as an atonement for past sins.
Some scholars propose that the book the Chinese government at the time. ''Journey to the West'' has a strong background in Chinese folk religion, Chinese mythology and value systems; the pantheon of immortals and bodhisattvas is still reflective of Chinese folk religious beliefs today.
Part of the novel's enduring popularity comes from the fact that it works on multiple levels: it is an adventure story, a dispenser of spiritual insight, and an extended allegory in which the group of pilgrims journeying toward India stands for the individual journeying toward .
The novel comprises 100 chapters. These can be divided into four very unequal parts. The first, which includes chapters 1–7, is really a self-contained prequel to the main body of the story. It deals entirely with the earlier exploits of Sūn Wùkōng, a monkey born from a stone nourished by the Five Elements, who learns the art of the Tao, 72 polymorphic transformations, combat and secrets of immortality, and through guile and force makes a name for himself as the ''Qítiān Dàshèng'' , or "Great Sage Equal to Heaven". His powers grow to match the forces of all of the Eastern deities, and the prologue culminates in Sūn's rebellion against Heaven, during a time when he garnered a post in the celestial bureaucracy. Hubris proves his downfall when the manages to trap him under a mountain for five hundred years.
Only following this introductory story is the nominal main character, Xuánzàng, introduced. Chapters 8–12 provide his early biography and the background to his great journey. Dismayed that "the land of the South knows only greed, hedonism, promiscuity, and sins", the Buddha instructs the Bodhisattva to search China for someone to take the Buddhist sutras of "transcendence and persuasion for good will" back to the East. Part of the story here also relates to how Xuánzàng becomes a monk .
The third and longest section of the work is chapters 13–99, an episodic adventure story which combines elements of the quest as well as the picaresque. The skeleton of the story is Xuánzàng's quest to bring back Buddhist scriptures from Vulture Peak in India, but the flesh is provided by the conflict between Xuánzàng's disciples and the various evils that beset him on the way.
The scenery of this section is, nominally, the sparsely populated lands along the Silk Road between China and India, including Xinjiang, Turkestan, and Afghanistan. The geography described in the book is, however, almost entirely fantastic; once Xuánzàng departs , the Táng capital and crosses the frontier , he finds himself in a wilderness of deep gorges and tall mountains, all inhabited by flesh-eating demons who regard him as a potential meal , with here and there a hidden monastery or royal city-state amid the wilds.
The episodic structure of this section is to some extent formulaic. Episodes consist of 1–4 chapters, and usually involve Xuánzàng being captured and his life threatened, while his disciples try to find an ingenious way of liberating him. Although some of Xuánzàng's predicaments are political and involve ordinary human beings, they more frequently consist of run-ins with various goblins and ogres, many of whom turn out to be the earthly manifestations of heavenly beings or animal-spirits with enough Taoist spiritual merit to assume semi-human forms.
Chapters 13–22 do not follow this structure precisely, as they introduce Xuánzàng's disciples, who, inspired or goaded by , meet and agree to serve him along the way, in order to atone for their sins in their past lives.
*The first is Sun Wukong , or Monkey, previously "Great Sage Equal to Heaven", trapped by Buddha for rebelling against Heaven. He appears right away in Chapter 13. The most intelligent and violent of the disciples, he is constantly reproved for his violence by Xuánzàng. Ultimately, he can only be controlled by a magic gold band that the Bodhisattva has placed around his head, which causes him excruciating pain when Xuánzàng chants certain magic words.
*The second, appearing in 19, is Zhu Bajie , literally Eight-precepts Pig, sometimes translated as Pigsy or just Pig. He was previously Marshal Tīan Péng , commander of the Heavenly Naval forces, banished to the mortal realm for flirting with the Princess of the Moon . He is characterized by his insatiable appetites for food and sex, and is constantly looking for a way out of his duties, but is always kept in line by Sūn Wùkōng.
*The third, appearing in chapter 22, is the river-ogre Sha Wujing , also translated as Friar Sand or Sandy. He was previously Great General who Folds the Curtain , banished to the mortal realm for dropping a crystal goblet of the Heavenly Queen Mother. He is a quiet but generally dependable character, who serves as the straight foil to the comic relief of Sūn and Zhū.
*Possibly to be counted as a fourth disciple is the third prince of the Dragon-King, Yùlóng Sāntàizǐ , who was sentenced to death for setting fire to his father's great pearl. He was saved by Guānyīn from execution to stay and wait for his call of duty. He appears first in chapter 15, but has almost no speaking role, as throughout most of the story he appears in the transformed shape of a horse that Xuánzàng rides on.
Chapter 22, where Shā is introduced, also provides a geographical boundary, as the river that the travelers cross brings them into a new "continent". Chapters 23–86 take place in the wilderness, and consist of 24 episodes of varying length, each characterized by a different magical monster or evil magician. There are impassably wide rivers, , a kingdom ruled by women, a lair of seductive spider-spirits, and many other fantastic scenarios. Throughout the journey, the four brave disciples have to fend off attacks on their master and teacher Xuánzàng from various monsters and calamities.
It is strongly suggested that most of these calamities are engineered by fate and/or the Buddha, as, while the monsters who attack are vast in power and many in number, no real harm ever comes to the four travelers. Some of the monsters turn out to be escaped heavenly animals belonging to bodisattvas or Taoist sages and spirits. Towards the end of the book there is a scene where the Buddha literally ''commands'' the fulfillment of the last disaster, because Xuánzàng is one short of the eighty-one disasters he needs to attain Buddhahood.
In chapter 87, Xuánzàng finally reaches the borderlands of India, and chapters 87–99 present magical adventures in a somewhat more mundane setting. At length, after a pilgrimage said to have taken fourteen years they arrive at the half-real, half-legendary destination of Vulture Peak, where, in a scene simultaneously mystical and comic, Xuánzàng receives the scriptures from the living Buddha.
Chapter 100, the last of all, quickly describes the return journey to the Táng Empire, and the aftermath in which each traveler receives a reward in the form of posts in the bureaucracy of the heavens. Sūn Wùkōng and Xuánzàng achieve Buddhahood, Wùjìng becomes an arhat, the dragon is made a Naga, and Bājiè, whose good deeds have always been tempered by his greed, is promoted to an altar cleanser .
Historical context
The classic story of the ''Journey to the West'' was based on real events. In real life, Xuanzang was a monk at Jingtu Temple in late-Sui Dynasty and early-Tang Dynasty Chang'an. Motivated by the poor quality of Chinese translations of Buddhist scripture at the time, Xuanzang left Chang'an in 629, despite the border being closed at the time due to war with the Gokturks. Helped by sympathetic Buddhists, he travelled via Gansu and Qinghai to Kumul , thence following the Tian Shan mountains to Turfan. He then crossed what are today Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Afghanistan, into Gandhara, reaching India in 630. Xuanzang travelled throughout the Indian subcontinent for the next thirteen years, visiting important Buddhist pilgrimage sites and studying at the ancient university at Nalanda.
Xuanzang left India in 643 and arrived back in Chang'an in 646 to a warm reception by Emperor Taizong of Tang. He joined Da Ci'en Monastery , where he led the building of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in order to store the scriptures and icons he had brought back from India. He recorded his journey in the book ''Journey to the West in the Great Tang Dynasty''. With the support of the Emperor, he established an institute at Yuhua Gong monastery dedicated to translating into the scriptures he had brought back. His translation and commentary work established him as the founder of the Dharma character school of Buddhism. Xuanzang died on March 7, 664. The Xingjiao Monastery was established in 669 to house his ashes.
Popular stories of Xuánzàng's journey were in existence long before ''Journey to the West'' was written. In these versions, dating as far back as Southern Song, a monkey character was already a primary protagonist. Before the Yuan Dynasty and early Ming, elements of the Monkey story were already seen.
Main characters
Tripitaka or Xuánzàng
Xuánzàng is the Buddhist monk who set out to India to retrieve the Buddhist scriptures for China. He is called Tripitaka in many versions of the story. Although he is helpless when it comes to defending himself, the bodhisattva Guānyīn helps by finding him powerful disciples who aid and protect him on his journey. In return, the disciples will receive enlightenment and forgiveness for their sins once the journey is done. Along the way, they help the local inhabitants by defeating various monsters. The fact that most of the monsters and demons are trying to obtain immortality by eating Xuánzàng's flesh, and are even attracted to him as he is depicted as quite handsome, provides much of the plot in the story.
Monkey King or Sūn Wùkōng
Sūn Wùkōng is the name given to this character by his teacher, Patriarch Subhuti, and means "the one who has "; he is called Monkey King or simply Monkey Emperor in .
He was born out of a rock that had been dormant for ages in Flower Fruit Mountain that was inhabited/weathered by the sun and moon until a monkey sprang forth. He first distinguished himself by bravely entering the Cave of Water Curtains at the Mountains of Flowers and Fruits ; for this feat, his monkey tribe gave him the title of ''Měi-hóuwáng'' . Later, he started making trouble in Heaven and defeated an army of 100,000 celestial soldiers, led by the Four Heavenly Kings, Erlang Shen, and . Eventually, the Jade Emperor appealed to , who subdued and trapped Wukong under a mountain. He was only saved when Xuanzang came by him on his pilgrimage and accepted him as a disciple.
His primary weapon is the ''rúyì-jīngū-bàng'' , which he can shrink down to the size of a needle and keep behind his ear, as well as expand it to gigantic proportions . The staff, originally a pillar supporting the undersea palace of the East Sea Dragon King, weighs 13,500 pounds, which he pulled out of its support and swung with ease. The Dragon King, not wanting him to cause any trouble, also gave him a suit of golden armor. These gifts, combined with his devouring of the peaches of immortality and three jars of immortality pills while in Heaven, plus his ordeal in an furnace , makes Wukong the strongest member by far of the pilgrimage. Besides these abilities, he can also pull hairs from his body and blow on them to transform them into whatever he wishes . Although he has mastered seventy-two methods of transformations, it does not mean that he is restricted to seventy-two different forms. He can also do a ''jīndǒuyún'' , enabling him to travel vast distances in a single leap. Wukong uses his talents to fight demons and play pranks. However, his behavior is checked by a band placed around his head by Guanyin, which cannot be removed by Wukong himself until the journey's end. Xuanzang can tighten this band by chanting the Tightening-Crown spell whenever he needs to chastise him. The spell is referred to by Xuanzang's disciples as the "Headache Sutra", and is as follows:-
"Om-munney pud-meyon", which is spoken quickly and repeatedly.
Wukong's child-like playfulness is a huge contrast to his cunning mind. This, coupled with his acrobatic skills, makes him a likeable hero, though not necessarily a good role model. His antics present a lighter side in what proposes to be a long and dangerous trip into the unknown.
Zhū Bājiè
Zhū Bājiè is also known as Zhū Wùnéng , and given the name Pigsy, Monk Pig or just simply Pig in .
Once an immortal who was the ''Tiānpéng-yuánshuǎi'' of 100,000 soldiers of the Milky Way, during a celebration of gods, he drank too much and attempted to flirt with , the beautiful moon goddess, resulting in his banishment into the mortal world. He was supposed to be reborn as a human, but ended up in the womb of a sow due to an error at the Reincarnation Wheel, which turned him into a half-man half-pig monster. Staying within ''Yúnzhan-dòng'' , he was commissioned by Guanyin to accompany Xuanzang to India and given the new name Zhu Wuneng.
However, Wuneng's desire for women led him to Gao Village, where he posed as a normal being and took a wife. Later, when the villagers discovered that he was a monster, Wuneng hid the girl away. At this point, Xuanzang and Wukong arrived at Gao Village and helped subdue him. Renamed Zhu Bajie by Xuanzang, he consequently joined the pilgrimage to the West.
His weapon of choice is the ''jiǔchǐdīngpá'' . He is also capable of thirty-six transformations , and can travel on clouds, but not as fast as Wukong. However, Bajie is noted for his fighting skills in the water, which he used to combat Sha Wujing, who later joined them on the journey. He is the second strongest member of the team.

Shā Wùjìng , given the name Friar Sand or Sandy in , was once the Curtain Raising General, who stood in attendance by the imperial chariot in the Hall of Miraculous Mist. He was exiled to the mortal world and made to look like a monster because he accidentally smashed a crystal goblet belonging to the Heavenly Queen Mother during the Peach Banquet. The now-hideous immortal took up residence in the Flowing Sands River, terrorizing the surrounding villages and travelers trying to cross the river. However, he was subdued by Sūn Wùkōng and Zhū Bājiè when the Xuānzàng party came across him. They consequently took him in to be a part of the pilgrimage to the West.
Shā Wùjìng's weapon is the ''yuèyáchǎn'' . Aside from that, he knows eighteen transformations and is highly effective in water combat. He is about as strong as Bājiè, and is much stronger than Wùkōng in water. However, Bājiè can beat Wujing in a test of endurance, and Wùkōng can beat him out of water.
Shā Wùjìng is known to be the most obedient, logical, and polite of the three disciples, and always takes care of his master, seldom engaging in the bickeries of his fellow-disciples. Perhaps this is why he is sometimes seen as a minor character; the lack of any particular perks confers the lack of distinguishing and/or redeeming characteristics.
Wùjìng eventually becomes an Arhat at the end of the journey, giving him a higher level of exaltation than Bājiè, who is relegated to cleaning every altar at every Buddhist temple for eternity, but is still lower spiritually than Wùkōng or Xuānzàng who are granted Buddhahood.

Analysis: Rookie Connor Cook just wasn't able to get the ball to Crabtree or Amari Cooper. They'll be more productive with Derek Carr back next season.
|Jan. 1, 2017 4:53 PM PT5:53 PM MT6:53 PM CT7:53 PM ET0:53 GMT8:53 AM 北京时间5:53 PM MST7:53 PM EST6:53 PM CT4:53 UAE (+1)19:53 ETNaN:� - Michael Crabtree had five receptions for 47 yards Sunday in the Oakland Raiders' 24-6 loss to the Denver Broncos.
Analysis: Crabtree was the Raiders' leading receiver Sunday, but he would seem like a bad fantasy option in the playoffs considering Oakland could be down to its third-string QB. Derek Carr is out with a broken leg, backup Matt McGloin left with a shoulder injury Sunday and rookie Connor Cook had to finish the game.
|Dec. 25, 2016 9:05 PM PT10:05 PM MT11:05 PM CT12:05 AM ET5:05 GMT1:05 PM 北京时间10:05 PM MST12:05 AM EST11:05 PM CT9:05 UAE0:05 ETNaN:� - Michael Crabtree had seven receptions for 90 yards Saturday in the Oakland Raiders' 33-25 win over the Indianapolis Colts.
Analysis: This was the fifth-highest game of the season, from a yardage standpoint, for Crabtree.
|Dec. 18, 2016 6:17 PM PT7:17 PM MT8:17 PM CT9:17 PM ET2:17 GMT10:17 AM 北京时间7:17 PM MST9:17 PM EST8:17 PM CT6:17 UAE (+1)21:17 ETNaN:� - Michael Crabtree had six receptions for 60 yards and one touchdown Sunday in the Oakland Raiders' 19-16 win over the San Diego Chargers.
Analysis: Crabtree continues to outperform teammate Amari Cooper down the stretch, as he's totaled 25 catches for 265 yards and two touchdowns over the past four weeks. He'll be more than a solid fantasy choice against a suspect Indianapolis defense on Christmas Eve.
|Dec. 16, 2016 12:38 PM PT1:38 PM MT2:38 PM CT3:38 PM ET20:38 GMT4:38 AM 北京时间1:38 PM MST3:38 PM EST2:38 PM CT0:38 UAE (+1)15:38 ETNaN:� - Crabtree was questionable for Sunday's game due to a finger issue, but now he'll give it a go against the Chargers.
Analysis: Crabtree was limited all week, but is expected to play after going for just four catches for 21 yards last weekend.
|Dec. 8, 2016 8:39 PM PT9:39 PM MT10:39 PM CT11:39 PM ET4:39 GMT12:39 AM 北京时间9:39 PM MST11:39 PM EST10:39 PM CT8:39 UAE23:39 ETNaN:� - Michael Crabtree had four receptions for 21 yards Thursday in the Oakland Raiders' 21-13 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Analysis: Oakland's No. 2 receiver was rendered a non-factor by Derek Carr's inability to accurately throw the ball on a bitterly cold evening. Crabtree continues to be a boom-or-bust fantasy choice, however. He entered the matchup with 15 catches for 184 yards and a touchdown over the last two weeks, but totaled only 32 yards over the previous two.
|Dec. 4, 2016 5:43 PM PT6:43 PM MT7:43 PM CT8:43 PM ET1:43 GMT9:43 AM 北京时间6:43 PM MST8:43 PM EST7:43 PM CT5:43 UAE (+1)20:43 ETNaN:� - Michael Crabtree had seven receptions for 74 yards and one touchdown Sunday in the Oakland Raiders' 38-24 win over the Buffalo Bills.
Analysis: Crabtree was very good for the second straight week, totaling 15 catches on 24 targets for 184 yards in those games. He ended a four-game drought without a TD and should've had a pair but was guilty of a drop in the end zone.
|Dec. 2, 2016 1:16 PM PT2:16 PM MT3:16 PM CT4:16 PM ET21:16 GMT5:16 AM 北京时间2:16 PM MST4:16 PM EST3:16 PM CT1:16 UAE (+1)16:16 ETNaN:� - Crabtree will play in Week 13 after dealing with an ankle injury in last week's game.
Analysis: Crabtree had a 100-yard effort last week.
|Nov. 25, 2016 4:27 PM PT5:27 PM MT6:27 PM CT7:27 PM ET0:27 GMT8:27 AM 北京时间5:27 PM MST7:27 PM EST6:27 PM CT4:27 UAE (+1)19:27 ETNaN:� - Crabtree suited up Sunday despite having an ankle injury and had eight receptions for a season-high 110 yards in the Oakland Raiders' 35-32 win over the Carolina Panthers.
Analysis: Crabtree had just five catches for 32 yards in the previous two games. He's gone four straight without a TD after having six in the first seven contests.
|Nov. 22, 2016 10:26 PM PT11:26 PM MT12:26 AM CT1:26 AM ET6:26 GMT2:26 PM 北京时间11:26 PM MST1:26 AM EST12:26 AM CT10:26 UAE1:26 ETNaN:� - Crabtree had another awful game Monday night, catching only three of his seven targets for five yards.
Analysis: Crabtree, who dropped a pair of passes Monday, has failed to surpass 30 yards receiving in back-to-back games and hasn't scored in three straight.
|Nov. 6, 2016 8:37 PM PT9:37 PM MT10:37 PM CT11:37 PM ET4:37 GMT12:37 AM 北京时间9:37 PM MST11:37 PM EST10:37 PM CT8:37 UAE23:37 ETNaN:� - Crabtree was held to two catches for 27 yards in a 30-20 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: In four home games, Crabtree has been targeted 22 times, catching 11 passes for 115 yards and two TDs. In five road games? Try 59 targets, 38 catches, 481 yards and four TDs.
|Oct. 30, 2016 2:01 PM PT3:01 PM MT4:01 PM CT5:01 PM ET21:01 GMT5:01 AM 北京时间2:01 PM MST4:01 PM EST3:01 PM CT1:01 UAE (+1)17:01 ETNaN:� - Crabtree had eight catches for 108 yards Sunday.
Analysis: Crabtree was targeted a team-high 16 times but didn't score, and Amari Cooper finished with the better numbers. However, Crabtree did notch his second 100-yard game of the year.
|Oct. 23, 2016 2:45 PM PT3:45 PM MT4:45 PM CT5:45 PM ET21:45 GMT5:45 AM 北京时间2:45 PM MST4:45 PM EST4:45 PM CT1:45 UAE (+1)17:45 ETNaN:� - Crabtree caught eight passes for 96 yards and a touchdown Sunday.
Analysis: He has 39 catches for 461 yards and six TDs in seven games this season.
|Oct. 2, 2016 4:10 PM PT5:10 PM MT6:10 PM CT7:10 PM ET23:10 GMT7:10 AM 北京时间4:10 PM MST6:10 PM EST6:10 PM CT3:10 UAE (+1)19:10 ET22:10 - Crabtree caught three touchdown passes from Derek Carr, including the decisive 23-yarder with 2:12 to play, and finished with seven catches for 88 yards in Sunday's win over the Ravens.
Analysis: Crabtree again outperformed Amari Cooper, the second-year man who was among the top wideouts selected in many fantasy drafts. Crabtree was targeted 12 times Sunday, twice as much as Cooper, who has yet to score a TD. Crabtree has topped 80 yards in three of four games, and Cooper has done so only once.
|Sep. 25, 2016 1:44 PM PT2:44 PM MT3:44 PM CT4:44 PM ET20:44 GMT4:44 AM 北京时间1:44 PM MST3:44 PM EST3:44 PM CT0:44 UAE (+1)16:44 ET19:44 - Crabtree stepped up with eight catches for 102 yards in the Raiders' 17-10 win over the Titans on Sunday.
Analysis: Crabtree outperformed star teammate Amare Cooper, which is something to keep an eye on moving forward.
|Sep. 25, 2016 1:45 PM PT2:45 PM MT3:45 PM CT4:45 PM ET20:45 GMT4:45 AM 北京时间1:45 PM MST3:45 PM EST3:45 PM CT0:45 UAE (+1)16:45 ET19:45 - Crabtree stepped up with eight catches for 102 yards in the Raiders' 17-10 win over the Titans on Sunday.
Analysis: Crabtree outperformed star teammate Amari Cooper, which is something to keep an eye on moving forward.
|Sep. 18, 2016 5:23 PM PT6:23 PM MT7:23 PM CT8:23 PM ET0:23 GMT8:23 AM 北京时间5:23 PM MST7:23 PM EST7:23 PM CT4:23 UAE (+1)20:23 ET23:23 - Crabtree was held to four catches and 31 yards by Atlanta in Week 2, though he salvaged his fantasy day with a touchdown grab in the fourth quarter.
Analysis: Crabtree wasn't as much a part of the game plan as he was in the opener, where Oakland's No. 2 receiver amassed 87 yards on seven receptions. He should still draw starting consideration due to his potential in the red zone.
|Sep. 11, 2016 1:23 PM PT2:23 PM MT3:23 PM CT4:23 PM ET20:23 GMT4:23 AM 北京时间1:23 PM MST3:23 PM EST3:23 PM CT0:23 UAE (+1)16:23 ET19:23 - Crabtree was in mid-season form Sunday, catching seven passes for 87 yards in the Raiders' 35-34 win at New Orleans.
Analysis: Crabtree's seven receptions matched his second-highest total over his last 17 games and his 87 yards is his fourth-best number in that span. On what could be a very good Raiders team, Crabtree has every chance to surpass the 85 catches, 922 yards and nine TDs he amassed last year in one of the best seasons of his career.

There was a time when business process outsourcing was an extremely popular phenomenon in the world of hardcore business, where there is one operating principle – to reduce cost and increase profit. In those days, BPOs used to buzz with callers who were hired to do the job of telemarketing the products or services. That was one of the coolest professions, with loads of incentives and perks for star performers. Millions of jobs were created and new generation was keen on taking it up as a full time profession. They used to stay at the job for quite some years, before changing to other professions due to the nature of the job. There was only one problem – the fatigue and the boredom associated with taking calls day after day.
But with the popularity and penetration of the internet, the ground below their feet started shifting rapidly. Email marketing was the 'in' thing, followed by a tremendous wave of social media marketing. Nowadays, the focus is on the entire realm of digital marketing, as most people have smartphones and tablets that empower them to stay connected 24×7 with the internet. They consume content on the internet and rarely read newspapers or watches TVs. Naturally, business houses shifted towards capitalizing this trend of consuming content on the internet, as this seems to be the most logical option.
Also, due to the more quite and sophisticated nature of marketing, telephone calls from salespersons is seen as an intrusion into the personal space. Also, employees across the world has complained that it is out rightly annoying and disturbing to attend to relentlessly ringing bells of telephones, and that emails are a much preferred way to receive information regarding marketing offers, as they can choose not to attend it instantly.
This is quite natural on part of the common people, who are at their feet to complete their assignments within deadlines and sudden calls, which is referred to as cold calls, made by telemarketing professionals is not something that adds to the concentration of people busy with their work at offices or homes. This shifted in attitude has definitely been noticed by business houses, who would never want to annoy their prospects. Also, sending hundreds of emails at just a few clicks is a much cost-effective way than, say, making cold calls. The telephone bills, along with the salary and other costs incurred by the companies for the callers, are seen as an unnecessary expense that can be cut off.
Therefore, telemarketing professionals and answering specialists are losing their jobs in large numbers, as there is no requirement.

I apologize, but I am not currently able to take orders from new customers. I am too busy with my four children at this time. If this changes in the future, I will remove this notice. I am leaving my blog up as a reference for myself and friends. If you are family, friends, or past customers, you may still contact me to see if I'm able to complete an order at this time or not. Thank-you!!
