The title of this question says it all.
I am trying to update my code from the deprecated
_getTracker() method to
_createTracker(), but am experiencing inconsistent results.
I have tried both traditional and Asynch methods (using a JSP include), but they all have the same result. My pageviews, and others in the office all show up in analytics, using both methods. The client visits from their own machine are not showing up. I have tried various test cases, but their visits using
_createTracker( ) just do not register at all for them, and mine do. Visits from their machines using
_getTracker ( ) do show up.
They have tried on multiple machines, and I have walked through with them step by step, so I know it's not just user error. I have verified that independent computers elsewhere (outside my network) do have their visits tracked, so I am extremely confused why their visits are not showing. It's also frustrating to show that the new tags work for me, but just not on their machines.
I know that if someone has javascript turned off will cause the tags not to work, but I am wondering if what else might cause their visits to not be recognized? I would appreciate any suggestions.
Currently trying this code: (Successful in all my test cases, but not client machine)
<script type="text/javascript">
var _gaq = _gaq || [];
_gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-xxxxxxx-x']);
_gaq.push(['_setAllowLinker', true]);
(function() {
var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
Tried this (also successful but not on client machines)
<script type="text/javascript">
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
<script type="text/javascript">
var pageTracker = _gat._createTracker("UA-xxxxxxx-x");
This is the old code that still works on client machine:
<script type="text/javascript">
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
<script type="text/javascript">
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-xxxxxxx-x");
UPDATE: So I did some more tests today, and the original tags are NOT working on the client machines now. To be clear all three versions are working in all other tests, so it seems not to be the code itself. At some point in the last month, something changed. I will check to see if it's their network or something on these two machines... but my question still stands... what on their machines might cause this. All answers are still appreciated as to what exactly I might examine to narrow down, and the first clue to lead me to the issue will not necessarily get the rep. If two or more answers are similar, but one explains it more correctly and/or completely, consideration will be given to what the best overall answer is. I also assume I can extend the deadline if I don't have the correct answer by the deadline, but if not I will make sure the rep goes to the rightful winner.
UPDATE: #1 - I didn't realize that the rep just disappears at the end of the bounty period.
<hangs head> I truly thought I would be able to wait until I had an accepted answer. #2 - Things are registering client side. The first code block is what we are using and it works just fine. The issue wasn't the analytics code, but rather something else that has "reverted" back. Not that it matters now that things are registering, but I was able to use the Chrome dev tools to verify the tracking beacon was sent.

Draft 2012: What the Giants got, from the polished L.S.U. receiver to the old rookie tackle from Germany
The following is an analysis of the Giants draft picks from Rounds 2 through 6. For my analysis of Giants first-round pick David Wilson, click here.
2nd Round (63): Rueben Randle, WR, LSU (6-3, 210)
In short:
Randle is big, smooth and polished, with good hands and the body control and coordination needed to "high-point" the ball. (That is, to catch it at its peak.) His gliding stride allows him to get out of his breaks effortlessly, helping him gain separation from defensive backs.
Another appealing thing about Randle, according to Giants general manager Jerry Reese: He's better prepared for the pro game than most college receivers.
"He's N.F.L.-ready," Reese said. "He runs the entire route tree. In this day and age in college football, it's all about the spread offense, and guys don't run the full tree. This guy runs the full tree."
Randle likely slipped to the end of the second round for two reasons: One, he played in a run-oriented offense at L.S.U. with relatively poor quarterbacks, which precluded him from posting big numbers.
Two, his combine performance was underwhelming: He ran a below-average 4.55 40-yard dash, and his vertical leap of 31 was just one inch better than the worst receiver tested.
Speed tends to be an overrated commodity in wide receivers, but Randle's lack of it limits him somewhat: He projects more as an intermediate threat than a deep home-run threat. Of course, Hakeem Nicks and Victor Cruz don't light up stopwatches either, and nobody's accusing them of lacking big play ability.
As college scouting director Marc Ross said, "I think our guys who we have now, Hakeem and Victor, if you put them at the combine you won't notice them, but you put them on the football field and they just take their game to another level."
It's usually foolish to buy into the spin front-office types put on players immediately after drafting them, but it seemed believable when Ross said that Randle "was in our stack" of players the Giants had ranked from 15th to 32nd, who they basically considered of near-equal ability.
The Giants made mention of this group of players of similar talent before the draft, which fueled speculation that they might trade down in the first round in the likelihood of still being able to land one of these players. They didn't do that, but it looks like they lucked out and managed to get two players, in David Wilson and Randle, from this group.
Where he fits:
The Giants have a two-time Super Bowl M.VP. quarterback in his prime, and in Hakeem Nicks and Victor Cruz, they have two receivers with a chance to go down as the best the franchise has ever had.
This is not your father's run-oriented Giants offense.
For the next several years, the Giants will win on the strength of Eli Manning's passing. He had the sixth-most passing yards ever last year, and he should be expected to continue putting up numbers that would have been undreamed of for a Giants quarterback several years ago.
Randle represents an investment in the passing game, and obviously a replacement for Mario Manningham, who left in free agency. And though Cruz and Nicks will hopefully be the starters for many more years, the Giants run enough multiple receiver looks for the title of "starter" to be somewhat meaningless: Randle will be on the field a lot, and soon. His frame and long strides make him best suited to be an outside receiver, thus enabling Cruz to line up in the slot. Cruz's quickness and savviness in confined spaces, along with his telepathic communication he developed last year with Eli Manning, make him more of a weapon in the slot than on the outside.
The selection of Randle also shows that the Giants weren't sold on the other receivers on their roster. Domenik Hixon is coming off his second ACL surgery in two years. Ramses Barden, a third round pick in 2009, has basically been a bust. Jerrel Jernigan, a third round pick in 2011, is better suited to the slot at only 5-foot-9.
3rd Round (94): Jayron Hosley, CB, Virginia Tech (5-10, 178)
In short:
The fact that Hosley's on the small side, that this draft was deep with quality cornerbacks, and that he failed a drug test at the combine enabled the Giants to pick him where they did.
(Nobody's elaborating on the drug test. But because Hosley was a favorite of Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer, and because his stock didn't drop too much, it's reasonable to guess that it was marijuana, which in turn means the Giants, reasonably, didn't hold this against him too much. It should also be noted that the last third-round pick who slipped because of unprepossessing size and a failed drug test was Mario Manningham in 2009. That worked out pretty well.)
Hosley profiles as the perfect slot corner and possibly more. His small size enables his excellent "short-area-quickness," in scoutspeak. In other words, while he might not be cut out for running and jumping with outside receivers like Calvin Johnson, he's well suited to shadowing smaller, quicker guys like Wes Welker and Victor Cruz.
Scouts also speak highly of his spatial instincts and route awareness. These things are hard to get a handle on when looking at college players, but they're really the most important attributes for a player, and give hope that Hosley's better than his middling "measurables," like his 4.47 40-yard dash.
His ability to "play bigger than he is" was the subject of a nice turn of phrase by Jerry Reese: "He's not a big man, but this guy has athletic arrogance. His plays like a big guy."
Where he fits:
Hosley will likely compete with Prince Amukamara, last year's first-round draft pick, for the slot corner position. It's is a major position of need for the Giants, whose inadequacy there almost sunk last season (it's easy to forget how close this came to happening).
Because of injury last year to Amukamara and several other cornerbacks, Antrel Rolle was thrust into slot corner duty for much of the year, and he didn't acquit himself well: Quarterbacks who threw his way posted a rating of 104.0, compared to the league average of 82.5.
The competition with Amukamara itself will be a good thing, maximizing the odds that the Giants will net at least one good corner from the past two drafts. Amukamara missed most of last season due to injury, the effects of which are still lingering, and performed poorly when he finally got on the field. His numbers were ghastly: He allowed quarterbacks a rating of 125.0 and a completion percentage of 70 percent.
Hosley can also return punts. His teammate at Virginia Tech, David Wilson, can return kicks, meaning that the Giants might just have overhauled their poor return game with their first two picks. Last year, according to FootballOutsiders' DVOA metric, the Giants were tenth worst in kick returns, and third worst in punt returns.
4th round (127): Adrien Robinson, TE, Cincinnati (6-4, 267)
In short:
A throwback to the "Planet Theory" drafts under Bill Parcells and George Young, which held that people with rare size and speed combinations are worth taking flyers on because there are only a certain number of people on the planet who possess them.
Robinson is 6-4, 267, and ran a wide-receiver-like 4.56 40-yard dash. Scouts say he has sure hands. As a blocker, has a strong lower body and a good base.
But that's all projection. Because Robinson's downside is obvious: For as impressive as his workouts have been, he's shown very little in terms of results on the field. At Cincinnati, in an offense that frequently employs four or five wide receivers running quick horizontal routes, the tight end was marginalized in both the passing and running games.
Last year was Robinson's first as a nominal starter. He posted career highs in receptions and yards with 12, and 183, respectively. So Robinson is all theory at this point, making him a classic "boom or bust" pick.
Reese evidently thinks the former is more likely. Pointing to Robinson's size-speed combination and the fact that "he hasn't scratched the surface" of his talent, he said Robinson "is kind of a JPP of tight ends. We like these kinds of people."
Reese also alluded to the Midas Touch of tight ends coach Mike Pope, whose record at developing tight ends has been stellar ever since the Giants used a fourth round draft pick 27 years ago on Mark Bavaro. More recently, Pope is credited with turning Jeremy Shockey into a good blocker, and turning theretofore nobodies Kevin Boss (a sixth-round pick) and Jake Ballard (an undrafted free agent) into somebodies.
Where he fits:
Probably nowhere but special teams for this coming year. Martellus Bennett, signed to a one-year contract, is the undisputed starter at tight end, with Bear Pascoe entrenched as the second tight end in running situations that call for a good blocker.
Reese expressed excitement about Robinson's potential contribution on special teams: "He is going to be one of those big guys that can run down on special teams and be a solid contributor to your big for special teams with that height, weight, and speed."
4th round (131): Brandon Mosley, OT, Auburn (6-6, 314)
In short:
Mosely is a quick and agile lineman who played both right and left tackle spots in college. Tom Coughlin said he might start his pro career at guard. In junior college, Mosley played tight end and defensive end.
On the downside, Mosley is susceptible to power moves and is unpolished technique-wise. That's understandable, given his relative inexperience as an offensive lineman at the top college level. As with Robinson, the success of the Mosley pick hinges on how Mosley will develop more than whether or not the Giants guessed right on what he is now.
Then there's this: As proof that everything you hear, from everybody, about the N.F.L draft has to be taken with a grain of salt, here's two takes on Mosley's intelligence:
From Scouts, Inc.: Keeping academics in order has been a struggle however and there are concerns regarding mental capacity. Did not quality academically coming out of high school so enrolled Georgia Military School and transferred to Coffeyville [Junior College] a year later. Turns 24 in December.
From Jerry Reese: Big, tough, smart. Just like we like in our offensive line room…. The guy has a good concept. He understands, knows how to play.
Where he fits:
Somewhere in the offensive-line mix. He likely won't play much this year, but probably will in the not-too-distant future. How much Mosley develops, and where on the line he does, is anybody's guess.
Restocking the offensive line is a priority, given that Will Beatty and Kevin Boothe, both of whom played key roles last year, are free agents after this year.
6th Round (201): Matt McCants, OT, UAB (6-6, 308)
In short:
McCants is a similar project to Mosley: Both are athletic but raw in terms of technique, and susceptible to being pushed around. McCants didn't even play football until his senior year of high school. Before then, he was the tuba player in his high school marching band.
McCants's best attributes are quickness and his long arms, which are ideal for a left tackle. The key is working on technique and adding bulk.
Said Reese, "I think at the combine he was 308. I think he's 315 now. I think he will be 325 pounds in a blink. A very interesting prospect for us. We think in a year from now he could really make some headway and challenge for a spot in our starting lineup."
Where he fits:
In the offensive line mix, competing for playing time at tackle, likely by 2013 at the earliest.
Who plays tackle this year for the Giants is up in the air. The presumptive starters are Will Beatty at left tackle and David Diehl at right tackle, although that's very much subject to change. Sean Locklear, who played both right and left tackle last year for the Washington Redskins, was signed as a free agent. James Brewer, a second-year man, has been praised in the press by the front office.
Markus Kuhn, DT, NC State (6-5, 300)
In short:
An inexperienced player with marginal on-field productivity but good combine numbers: Kuhn ran a 4.9 in the 40-yard dash, and performed well above average in the 3-cone, 20-yard shuffle, and vertical and broad jumps.
But he wasn't a starter in college until his senior year, and he's old for a rookie: He turns 26 this training camp. He's also a native of Germany.
Where he fits:
Sixth-round picks are not guaranteed to make the team, but Kuhn might help his cause on special teams.
Said Reese, "He's fast, a straight-line fast guy so we think he can run down on kickoffs. Again, when we get this late in the draft we look for special things that guys can do and he's big and strong and can run fast and he plays hard."

Austen Heller, founded by former University of Pennsylvania quarterback Gavin Hoffman, is bringing durability and reasonable pricing to the fanciful field of men's loafers – freeing men from the sweaty constraints of socks. The shoes are simple and elegant, with detailing that recalls a perfectly constructed saddle as much as the daintier products already on the market. The Chicago-based brand produces all of its distinctive loafers in family-run factories in Portugal, where the shoes are hand-stitched using traditional moccasin construction by shoemakers with generations of experience making the world's best footwear.
The iconic Tod's pebbled-bottom driving shoe, the Gommino, is an obvious inspiration, but Austen Heller adds some American heft and utility with its more durable sole. These loafers are designed to take punishment from pavement, not just to skate across recently waxed Italian marble floors (though they'll do nicely there as well). Austen Heller's take on the preppy classic are crafted in rich leathers and suedes, with cushioned insoles and soft calfskin linings for comfort. And – as befits this bit of inspired foppery – the loafer comes in some sharp color options: cherry red with a black sole, navy with a bright yellow sole.
For a simpler look, we like the Slaters in dark gray suede or the can't-go-wrong Classics in rich brown calfskin. Shipping and returns are free and, as an old-school bonus, each pair comes with its own wooden shoe trees. [$195; austenheller.com]

Mariners battle to beat Astros with just one hit
Saunders' RBI double ends no-hit bid and drives in winning runs
HOUSTON -- Astros left-hander Erik Bedard no-hit his former Mariners team for 6 1/3 innings on Saturday, but wound up the losing pitcher on a strange night when Seattle pulled out a 4-2 victory despite managing just one hit and striking out 15 times.
Bedard, who pitched three seasons for Seattle from 2008-11, was removed by Astros manager Bo Porter with one out in the seventh after issuing his fifth walk and reaching 109 pitches. Two of those walks came around to score in the sixth and his final free pass resulted in the go-ahead run when Michael Saunders ripped a two-RBI double off reliever Jose Cisnero after replacing Bedard in the seventh.
"That's the oddest win I've ever been a part of," said Saunders. "To score two runs on no hits and no errors, I don't remember the last time that happened. We're just grinding out at-bats. Bedard pitched great -- a no-hitter -- and ended up taking the loss. I don't know how that happens."
It happened largely because Saunders finally found a way to get a ball to drop in, driving his double deep to center field over the head of Brandon Barnes to the base of the hill in the oddly-configured Minute Maid Park outfield.
"That was the longest double I've ever had," Saunders said. "I definitely put a good swing on it. I guess if the hill isn't out there, maybe he runs it down. Or if the hill isn't out there, maybe it's a home run. I don't know. But it fell, we won and that's all that matters."
"Michael Saunders was huge for us tonight," said Mariners manager Eric Wedge. "That ball goes out of any other ballpark, as we all know. Still, the guy had a chance to catch it so I was glad it fell in there. And then that catch [Saunders] made in the ninth inning was huge."
Bedard, 34, thus wound up the losing pitcher, falling to 3-7 on the season despite striking out 10 and not allowing a hit in 6 1/3 innings or a baserunner for the first four frames.
Since 1916, only one other team has scored four-plus runs while recording one or fewer hits, that coming in 1990 when the White Sox beat the Yankees 4-0 despite getting no hits.
Only five previous pitchers in baseball history had thrown six-plus innings without a hit and allowed at least two runs, the last being Matt Young with the Red Sox in 1992.
Bedard had no issues with being pulled when his pitch count hit 109, which equaled his season high. He told Porter, "I'm done," when the skipper came to the mound in the seventh.
"I've had three shoulder surgeries, so I'm not going over 110," Bedard said. "I'd rather pitch a couple more years than face another batter."
Bedard hadn't thrown more than 7 1/3 innings in a start this season and had just one complete game in his career, back in 2007 with the Orioles.
Bedard was making his second start against the Mariners since being traded away in July of 2011. The 34-year-old lefty threw four scoreless innings with just one hit against Seattle on April 9, but was taken out of that game after throwing 66 pitches in his first start of the year.
Mariners All-Star Hisashi Iwakuma got the win after allowing two runs on seven hits over seven innings. Iwakuma is now 9-4 with a 2.99 ERA as Seattle won its fifth straight to improve to 45-52.
The Mariners have been held to one hit or fewer 19 times in franchise history and have actually won three of those, having also topped the Yankees in 2002 in a 1-0 one-hit game and the Rangers 2-0 in 1989 on a one-hitter.
The Mariners scored two runs to tie the game in the sixth despite never squaring up a ball against Bedard, who walked three in that frame along with a pair of passed balls.
Saunders and Brad Miller walked with one out and moved up on the first passed ball by catcher Jason Castro. Saunders then scored on a sacrifice fly by Nick Franklin and Miller crossed the plate after Castro's second passed ball on a pitch wide of the plate.
Bedard needed 28 pitches to get through that inning as his pitch count climbed to 101. He then walked Justin Smoak with one out in the seventh, with one of his pitches flying all the way to the backstop, before Porter pulled the plug.
Cisnero got one out before walking Mike Zunino and giving up Saunders' go-ahead double.
Charlie Furbush replaced Iwakuma and threw a perfect eighth with two strikeouts before closer Tom Wilhelmsen came in to notch his 21st save, helped by a great running catch by Saunders to rob Justin Maxwell of a likely leadoff double in the ninth.
"That's the play of the day," said Wilhelmsen. "Or maybe his double as well. He closed down on that sucker so fast. That ball was smoked. I was like 'Holy cow.' He was full extension. Incredible catch. Huge."
The whole game fell into that category for the Mariners, who will look to close out their second straight series sweep on Sunday after not sweeping a series the entire first half until the final weekend before the All-Star break against the Angels.
"What a crazy game," said Wilhelmsen. "Kuma got in some trouble and bailed out of it every single time. Obviously, Bedard threw that great game. Those are games that winning ballclubs win. And we're on our way. "
The Mariners saw their club-record streak of 23 straight games with a home run end, leaving them one short of tying the 1953 Brooklyn Dodgers for the fifth longest streak in Major League history since records began being kept in 1916.

UConn men crushed by Louisville
LOUISVILLE, Ky. >> Russ Smith really didn't care about being top scorer in his home finale with Louisville because passing to open teammates was the better choice.
The star guard is showing he can be pass-first when needed.
Just ask Cardinals forward Montrezl Harrell, who scored 20 points while Smith recorded a career-high 13 assists as No. 11 Louisville routed No. 19 Connecticut 81-48 on Saturday to claim a share of the American Athletic Conference championship.
The Cardinals (26-5, 15-3) finished tied with No. 15 Cincinnati atop the league. A postgame coin flip went to Cincinnati and left Louisville with the No. 2 seed in the conference tournament.
The Cardinals still got to hoist a trophy thanks to Smith's generosity.
"Russ does so much for our team," said Harrell, who added 11 rebounds and several thunderous dunks. "He doesn't just worry about scoring. He had like (three) points tonight and 13 assists, so how does he not make us better? ... Right now, he's just worried about us winning, and that's what we need."
Smith's performance was appreciated by a sellout crowd that gave him a standing ovation as he went to the bench with 4:22 left in the game. The reception capped a joyous day as he and fellow seniors Luke Hancock, Tim Henderson and Stephan Van Treese were honored as the program's winningest class.
Their achievements included winning last year's NCAA championship. All played key roles in Saturday's 116th win together.
Smith made just one of two shots but topped his previous assist high by two. Hancock added 16 points while Henderson added an early basket on feeds from Smith. Van Treese grabbed 13 rebounds.
"It was just getting the ball to my teammates to get the ball movement going," said Smith, whose audience included nine NBA scouts. "When I looked at the film after the first UConn game, I was very sloppy with the rock. I wasn't handling the ball as well as I should have. I negated any discrepancy about turning the ball over. I just kicked it out to other teammates."
Louisville's defense, meanwhile, frustrated the Huskies (24-7, 12-6) into season lows in scoring and shooting (29.4 percent) in completing the sweep. Their previous shooting low was 29.6 percent in a loss to SMU.
"I didn't see anything like this coming," said UConn coach Kevin Ollie, whose team still earned the No. 4 seed. "And I'm glad it came because now we know how tough we have to be to be a champion.
"We weren't tough enough. We weren't together enough. Louisville took every opportunity to take advantage of it. ... That's what champions do."
Wayne Blackshear added 11 points and Chris Jones 10 as Louisville won this matchup between two of the past three NCAA champions. While the defending champion Cardinals weren't always smooth in beating the Huskies, they shot 45 percent (26 of 58) from the field and mounted a couple of second-half runs to put the game out of reach.
DeAndre Daniels' 17 points led UConn, which had its four-game winning streak snapped and dropped to 0-4 at the KFC Yum! Center. Senior guard Shabazz Napier managed nine points on 2-of-13 shooting just days after scoring 26 points including a career-best seven 3-pointers in a win over Rutgers,
Emotion preceded the game as Louisville honored the seniors who helped earn the school's third national championship last spring. Smith as expected drew the loudest cheers from a red-clad sellout crowd as a montage of his and teammates' shining moments was played on the video screen, which included a shout-out from rapper Pit Bull.
Louisville's 30-18 lead at the break eventually grew to 34 with 91 seconds left to put fitting end to a fond farewell to the seniors especially Smith.
"It's a special class because for four years they totally did things for all the right reasons," Louisville coach Rick Pitino said.
Of Smith, he added, "how would you ever imagine Russ Smith knowing on Senior Night he would pass up all opportunities to score and get 13 assists? That shows you how much he's grown. If any pro scouts wondered tonight whether he could be a point guard, I think the thing is all closed."

Apple has introduced a Micro USB adaptor for its new Lightning dock connector. Speed freaks will be disappointed to hear it's a USB 2.0 connector.
USB 3.0 imposes a less-compact connector than the older version of the bus standard. Since USB 3.0 is essentially two separate buses in one - Superspeed USB and USB 2.0 - its version of the Micro connector is a B-shaped affair comprising an old-style Micro USB jack bonded onto a smaller connector that carries the USB 3.0 lines.
In fact, the inelegant nature of the Micro USB 3.0 connector may explain why Apple devised its own, sleeker alternative.
It's not yet clear whether Lightning is based on USB 3.0, but given that all new Macs now support the standard, it seems unlikely that it's USB 2.0 only.
Apple has to offer a Micro USB adaptor in Europe after the European Commission mandated the connector as a standard for AC adaptor interoperability in a bid to reduce the number of phone power supplies in circulation and thus minimise the number of them ending up in landfill because new handset otherwise need new PSUs.
Meanwhile, the 30-pin adaptor Apple announced at the iPhone 5 launch will be accompanied by a 20cm cable version for folk who don't fancy balancing the new handset on an old speaker or cradle with the new adaptor in between.
If the docking hardware is too old, neither adaptor may work. "Some 30-pin accessories are not supported," Apple warns.
The Lightning Micro USB adaptor costs £15 - the old version was only eight quid. The 30-pin adaptor is £25 and the cabled version £30. ®

President and Professor of Ethics
Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley, CA
Chief Executive Officer of a major graduate university comprised of nine graduate schools of theology, seven research centers and academic program units, the largest and most extensive theological library in the United States, and joint degree programs and affiliation with the University of California at Berkeley.
The Graduate Theological Union (GTU) is constituted as a structurally and financially integrated consortium for the academic study of religion. Its member schools represent the major Protestant denominations (Episcopal, Lutheran, Baptist, Presbyterian, United Church of Christ, Methodist, Unitarian-Universalist), three Roman Catholic traditions (Jesuit, Franciscan, Dominican), and major world religions (Center for Islamic Studies, Center for Jewish Studies, Center for Orthodox Studies, Center for Buddhist Studies).
The GTU offers the Ph.D., Th.D., and M.A. degrees in theology and religious studies, as well as provides academic programs for the Master of Divinity degree in preparation for religious ministry. The curriculum and research throughout the GTU represent the full range of academic specialties in theology and religion (scripture, historical studies, philosophy and theology, ethics, art and religion, religion and science, comparative religious traditions, liturgical studies, interdisciplinary studies, historical and cultural studies of religion).
Responsibilities entail the oversight and coordination of an extraordinarily complex set of organizational relationships and structures. Primary responsibilities include oversight of a 135-member faculty in ten theological disciplines and management of the structural collaboration among the consortial schools and with the University of California at Berkeley. Specific responsibilities include overall administration and development of the consortial enterprise, strategic planning, and oversight of academic programs, all shared consortial services across member schools, and the common library. Management of a staff of 45 including direct supervision of the vice presidents of finance, development, library, and academic affairs and an annual budget of approximately $9 million. Select accomplishments include:
- Developed Board-approved long-term sustainability plan for the GTU Common Enterprise and the consortium (2010–2012)
- Played lead role in securing fundraising revenues of $1–2 million per year from individual donors and foundation grant support (2002–2011)

Crazed Fan Grabs Nicki Minaj Onstage
Nicki Minaj isn't afraid to get in your face with her rhymes, but Lord help whoever gets in hers. The Young Money queen was not having it when a crazed Barbz grabbed her onstage in Miami — and neither were her guards.
During a break between songs, Minaj was chatting with her Barbz when one of them got way too close. He actually rushed the stage and grabbed her disproportionately small waist and refused to let go. Scary stuff! But it got even scarier for him when her security team and her boyfriend, SB (Safaree Samuels) kicked the crap out of him.
What ensues next is a mess of punches and even a dropkick (these people are not playing around!). Then, two of the fan's pals follow him onto the stage and into the backstage area, ostensibly to check up on and maybe nurse their pal back to health.
For her part, Minaj handled the situation remarkably well. While she at first appeared really startled and nervous, as soon as the guy was gone, she laughed the whole thing off. With a sheepish grin, the Harajuku Barbie looked at the crowd and roared, "Thank you for the love, Florida!" She immediately got back to business, performing 'Take It to the Head' with DJ Khaled and Lil Wayne, who joked, "Is that your baby daddy who ran onto the stage?" Oh, Tunechi. Don't ever change.

Katy Perry has been "struck down" with food poisoning! How could this have happened???? Oh. She's actually a human being and not a cartoon. I guess that could be why.
The 'Teenage Dream' hitmaker - who is currently performing across the US as part of her 'California Dreams' tour - has been forced to cancel a number of her concerts after suffering from "severe dehydration" as a result of the sudden illness.
According to a statement from promoters Jam Productions, the singer has rescheduled her July 8 show at Chicago's Allstate Arena for August 21, and her July 9 gig at St. Paul's Xcel Energy Center for August 23.
Katy said: "I apologize to my fans in Chicago and the Twin Cities for not being able to perform this weekend, but I am going to return in a few weeks to give them the very best show ever!"

When we were in Atlanta last week, we ate lunch at a restaurant a few blocks from our hotel called Naan Stop. I got a naanwich filled with chola (no, not that kind of chola) and a sweet apple-tamarind curry, which was messy, but delicious. Why are there not more naan restaurants?! There really should be.
I'm kind of convinced that naan is the new pita. You can use them both in the same ways–tear them into pieces and use them for dipping, make sandwiches with them, and use them instead of a traditional pizza crust. But what makes naan better than pitas is that now you can buy tasty naan in your local grocery store. While you can buy pitas too, so often they're dry and tasteless. I am not a big fan of store-bought pitas, but I'm pretty crazy about naan.
I've used naan as a pizza crust before, but the difference in this naan pizza recipe is that this time, I grilled it first. You can do this on an outdoor grill if you have one, but I just used a cast iron grill pan–much easier! Grill both sides of the naan until it's warmed and has nice grill marks on it, then top it with grape tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, and drizzle the whole thing with a balsamic reduction.
This is the kind of meal I could eat all summer long. It's not fussy, it's simple to make, and it tastes delicious. Even if you like your caprese without tomatoes. (Yeah, that would be me.)

Grilled Caprese Naan Pizza
An easy summer pizza made with a grilled naan crust, fresh mozzarella, and grape tomatoes. Although I used a grill pan, you can also grill your naan on an outdoor grill.
- Prep Time: 5 minutes
- Cook Time: 10 minutes
- Total Time: 15 minutes
- Yield: 2 servings 1x
- 1/4 c. balsamic vinegar
- 2 naan
- Olive oil mister or cooking spray
- A handful or two of cherry or grape tomatoes, halved (use heirloom if you can!)
- A handful or two of small fresh mozzarella balls (ciliegine)
- 1/4 c. fresh basil ribbons
- Salt + pepper to taste
- Heat balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until syrupy and reduced to about a tablespoon, 8-10 minutes.
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Spray both sides of one naan with olive oil and place it in the pan, pressing down on the top of it with a spatula to sear. Cook on each side until just beginning to char, about 2-3 minutes. Repeat with second naan.
- Top each naan with tomatoes, cheese, and basil. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with balsamic reduction. Cut into wedges and serve.
If you can't find ciliegine at your grocery store, you can buy a bigger size and uses slices of it on the pizza instead.

This year's flu season has seen a rise in hospitalizations and deaths across the country. Although the season typically reaches its peak in January and February, this round has already seen fatalities in several states. Experts urge that it is not too late to get a flu shot.
The predominant flu strain affecting the country is H1N1. Back in 2009, an H1N1 pandemic killed over 200,000 people worldwide. Swine flu is not expected to pose a similar danger this time because the current flu vaccine includes protection against H1N1. But the CDC warned that the 2013-2014 season will be most dangerous to young- and middle-aged adults, as it was in 2009. By contrast, common seasonal influenza victims are children and those over the age of 65.
As of early January, the CDC documented 2,622 influenza-related hospitalizations for the season.
In order to properly protect yourself from the rising rate of flu-related sickness, here are five things to keep in mind for a safe and healthy season:
Get a flu shot, even if you already got one last year
This year's vaccine contains the most up-to-date protection against the circulating strains, including H1N1. An old flu shot will not protect you for a new season. There are also different types of vaccinations available for those with allergies. The flu vaccine finder on the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' flu website is a good tool to find the nearest location that fits your need.
U.S. & World
Practice proper hygiene
Wash your hands with soap and water or an alcohol-based cleanser after you go to the bathroom, cough, or sneeze. Don't think that antibacterial gels will be a good substitute. A gel is only a worthy replacement for hand-washing if it is made from over 60 percent alcohol, ethanol or isopropanol, Dr. Roshini Raj said on "Today."
Avoid touching your phone too often in between washes
Your phone could be a magnet for germs, especially if it's a touchscreen, NBC DFW reported. Try a disinfectant every once in a while to remove those unwanted pathogens.
Learn how to recognize the symptoms
If prevention doesn't help you avoid catching the flu, noticing symptoms early on is your best chance for ensuring proper treatment and recovery. Common symptoms include a cough, fever, sore throat, headache, fatigue, and muscle pains. If you think you may be coming down with the flu, see your doctor immediately. Dr. Keri Peterson warned on "Today" that even if you've already gotten the flu, you may be susceptible to a different strain.
Do your research
Check out the WHO, CDC, NIH and other trusted websites for more tips to avoid catching the flu. You can also use Google's Flu Trends map to track the level of influenza nationally and locally.

The Governance of The Episcopal Church: This information is another in an ongoing series discussing the governance of The Episcopal Church.

The Disciplinary Board for Bishops, part of the Title IV canons, consists of 10 bishops, four clergy and four lay members. Eight of the bishops were elected by the House of Bishop at the groupâs recent meeting; two were later appointed by Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori when vacancies occurred. The clergy and lay members were appointed by President of the House of Deputies Bonnie Anderson for an interim basis until the House of Deputies can elect at General Convention 2012.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) The more the Denver Broncos win, the better the chance they lose - coordinators, that is.
Defensive boss Jack Del Rio and his offensive counterpart, Mike McCoy, figure to be hot commodities for any head coaching vacancies when the season finally winds down. That's simply the price of success.
``You like to see people get opportunities and have those options,'' said coach John Fox, whose Broncos (11-3) will host Cleveland (5-9) on Sunday. ``I'm sure it will be no different this year.''
Losing a defensive coordinator has almost become a rite of passage for cornerback Champ Bailey. One year with the Pro Bowler and they're out the door.
That's been the case the last six seasons and there's a possibility it could happen again after this year, especially with the way Del Rio has the defense humming along.
Surely, orchestrating one of the top defenses in the league will garner Del Rio some consideration for another head coaching job.
Bailey understands, though. He would never stand in the way of an upgrade, even if it meant learning another new system from yet another coordinator.
``It (stinks) not to have a guy coming back that you've done good things with, but any time a guy gets a promotion, you've got to applaud that,'' Bailey said. ``I'd be happy for him. It would (stink) for us, because we'd have to start all over again, but it is what it is.
``Everybody wants a promotion.''
McCoy nearly had one a year ago, receiving not only kudos for the job he did with overhauling the offense to fit Tim Tebow's unorthodox style, but strong consideration as a head coach. He was in the running for the Miami Dolphins job before it went to Joe Philbin.
This season, he's assisted in resurrecting the career of Peyton Manning, who's thrown for the fourth-most yards passing (4,016) in a season for the Broncos and has an outside chance to break Jay Cutler's franchise mark (4,526) set in 2008.
Not bad considering Manning was coming off neck surgery and few figured he would have this bountiful of season.
So dominant has the offense been during the Broncos' nine-game win streak that they're beating teams by an average of 12.7 points.
Even more, they've also averaged 29 points a game this season, an output that could draw teams in need of a head coach toward McCoy.
Although, he quickly deflected the attention.
``Good players make good coaches,'' McCoy said. ``My wife and I and the kids, we absolutely love Denver. We'll see what happens. If it's meant to be, it's meant to be. If not, hey, we can stay here for a long time.
``We have a lot of football left this year to go. We'll see what happens down the road.''
McCoy has certainly earned the respect of Manning, who also credits quarterbacks coach Adam Gase with his stellar performance this season.
``I'm grateful for their help and support,'' Manning said.
A defensive coordinator moving on after a season in this city has almost become expected. After last season, Dennis Allen bolted to take over in Oakland.
Other coordinators who have filled the spot over the last few years include Larry Coyer (2006), Jim Bates (2007), Bob Slowik (2008), Mike Nolan (2009) and Don Martindale (2010).
That has Bailey wondering - kiddingly, of course - if he's doing something to drive them off?
``I know I'm up there,'' Bailey said of where he would rank among players who've had the most coordinators through a career. ``I've got to be up there. I don't know how many I've had - 12, 13, whatever. It's nothing new to me.''
Del Rio has a rather good thing going in Denver with two of the elite pass rushers in the game in Von Miller and Elvis Dumervil, a talented linebacker collection and a secondary led by Bailey. That's a pretty formidable ensemble in which to build a dominating defense.
He's really in no rush to go anywhere just yet.
``When you're a young guy and you haven't been there, the urgency and desire to get that opportunity is such that you'd take just about any job given to you,'' said Del Rio, who was in charge in Jacksonville for nine seasons. ``I don't feel that way now. If there's something that fits and the right situation comes along, so be it. But in the meantime, I'm all in, 100 percent as a lieutenant on this staff. I'm somebody that John Fox, John Elway ... and the players can count on. I'm 100 percent invested in helping them be their best.''
Any chance Baily would consider being a player-coach, should Del Rio ever move on?
That way, Bailey could assure a level of continuity for years to come.
``Ahh, no,'' Bailey said, smiling.
NOTES: Broncos OL Chris Kuper missed practice Friday with a balky left ankle and migraine symptoms. He's doubtful for the game against the Browns. ... FB Chris Gronkowski (hamstring) was limited at practice. There are nine other players on the injury report listed as probable. ``Right now, we're relatively healthy considering we're second-to-the-last regular season game and that's all good,'' Fox said.

Saint Pio of Pietrelcina was born on the 25th of May 1887 in Pietrelcina and he died on 23 September 1968 in San Giovanni Rotondo.
Pio (whose name was Francesco Forgione) was an italian catholic bishop of the order of the Capuchine Friars. He was beatified on the 2nd of May 1999 and he was sanctified on the 16 of June 2002 by Pope John Paul II.
The Catholic Church venerates him as a saint and it celebrates his liturgic memory on the 23rd of September, when he died.
When he was 30 years old it began to appear the stigmatas. During his life they attributed him many miracles and inexplicable healings.
In Italy were born numerous "Groups of Worship", associations of devoted observants, with voluntary works and pilgrimage's organisation to the Shrine of San Giovanni Rotondo.

I have been to Scotland and the first stop was Edinburgh
As you might have noticed, it has been a while since my last post. Although I have taken some pictures the past months, which I will share later, I simply couldn't find the time, nor energy, to post my work. Luckily, there came an end to my lack of motivation, as I visited Scotland and got re-energized!

Losing our religion explores the notion of a prolonged but imminent death of religious belief in our increasingly secular contemporary Western society. Its role has been reduced due to major sociocultural and ideological shifts, suggesting that in thousands of years' time it is plausible that even dominant religious sects may be dissolved by science, reason and alternate beliefs such as atheism and humanism. The hybrid gods and goddesses ignored within an indifferent bustling cityscape symbolise the spiritual obsolescence of ancient belief systems and the potential fate of current religious beliefs, highlighting the comparatively reduced function of religion in a contemporary context.

HowTo contribute your translation to us
This how-to assumes that you have enough experience to install and setup subversion (svn) and using the Shell.
First, you need to get the subversion client "svn" from AmiNET for OS3/OS4:
After that, you can go and do a checkout by doing something like this:
cd "where you want to store the files" svn co https://svn.yam.ch/svn/yam/trunk yam
This will checkout the sources from our "trunk" to your local directory "yam". Now you can go into the "locale" subdir and change the *.ct file for your language in there (Don't change the directory layout and such).
However, you need to make sure you keep the following in mind:
- Always do a "svn update" in that "yam" directory (not in any subdir of it) right before your next change or checkin so that you make sure you get the very latest changes.
- Always bump the revision and date of your *.ct file (in the header of it) before you checkin your changes back to the repository, that's very important!
- Always adapt the "ChangeLog" yourself by adding an entry to it right before you checkin (keep the style like we are doing it)
After you have done your changes you might do a "svn status" in the "yam" directory and subversion should tell you which files you changed (not the 'M' sign). And after that you could even do a "svn diff" in the directory and subversion should show you a diff file with the particular local changes you have made.
If you then have added a comment to the ChangeLog you can do a "svn commit" in the directory "yam" and subversion will prompt you for a log message. This should open c:Ed and here you should add a comment, same like you added to the ChangeLog file. It will also show you which files have been changed and thus which changes will be checked in. After that you will be promted for your login and password and after that you are done!
In the future you do not need to do a complete new checkout again, all you need to do, to update yam, is:
cd "your yam directory" svn update
And please note, before you are able to use "svn commit" you need to got our permission to submit your changes. So please inform us first in case you want to submit your .ct file to us.
Good luck translating YAM!
HowTo translate the online documentation
You don't need a subversion client here. Your favorite browser and an account on the Yam's site is enough.
You need to know the ISO639-1 code of the language you wish to translate the documentation.
For example, if you wish to translate into Italian, the code is "it". For a complete List of the possible language codes see the following page: http://yam.ch/wiki/TracLanguages
A little bit of knowledge about WikiFormatting will help, but is not required.
Here are the steps to start a new translation:
- Login - This is needed to be allowed to create and edit wiki documents.
- Go to the main default (English) documentation page.
- Click on the Edit button and copy the content.
- Cancel the edition of that page.
- Now you have to create a new main page for your translation. Let's say the translation will be in Italian.
In the URL text gadget of your browser, type:
- "it" is the ISO639-1 code for Italian
- "%3A" is the URL replacement for ":".
- You will be prompted that the document does not exist. Click on Create.
- Paste the content you have previously copied, and start replacing the English strings by the Italian equivalent.
- Use the Preview Page button as much as needed, then save your work with the Submit changes button.
IMPORTANT for the main page (and the main page only):
This page is the root of all subsequent documents, linked by an absolute path.
To make those links point to the future translated pages and not the English ones, you need to edit each occurence of
Links in the other documents won't need to be edited as they will be all relatives to
When the main documentation page is created, with the links in it properly edited, you can just follow those links to create or edit other documentation pages.
Status of online documentation translations
To assist in properly translating the online documentation and wiki pages please see the following list of status messages for all currently translated pages:
If you have questions or wish to discuss about translations, please post on the Locale Translations forum.
Thank for your help !
