NFL coaching rumors are starting to heat up and they won't be going away any time soon. As we examine the possible head coaching candidates for the job openings.
One name that continues to pop up is former Super Bowl winning head coach and current ESPN Monday Night Football analyst Jon Gruden. The talking heads at ESPN want us to believe that Gruden is happy in the booth and tied into his contract with the sports media giant, but the reality is Gruden could return to the sidelines if the right opportunity presented itself.
ESPN's Chris Mortensen acknowledged today on Mike and Mike in the Morning that you have to consider Gruden a viable candidate for the job openings around the league.
"I have to say, we all have to watch our Jon Gruden — ESPN's Jon Gruden," Mortensen said. "It makes everybody at ESPN nervous when we say that, but we haven't heard one way or the other. He is very happy at ESPN, but we know that he is on the tip of a lot of tongues with NFL people."
If Gruden was to return to the sidelines, you would have to imagine he would want to go to take the best opportunity to hoist a Lombardi Trophy again. He would also want a team with an established veteran signal-caller. That is why you would have to keep an eye on the Chicago Bears.
Another team to watch in the Gruden sweepstakes, that has yet to fire their head coach, is the Dallas Cowboys.

DorobekINSIDER: Federal News Radio Book Club: Daniel Pink's Drive — the liner notes
Friday - 4/2/2010, 2:00am EDT
The Federal News Radio Book Club "meets" this afternoon — and we will be discussing Daniel Pink's new book Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us.
First, the details:
When: Friday, April 2 at 3p ET
Where: On Federal News Radio 1500 AM's Daily Debrief with Chris Dorobek and Amy Morris and on FederalNewsRadio.com
The book: Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us by Daniel H. Pink
Book Club participants: In studio, in addition to Amy Morris and myself, will be Daniel Pink, the author of the book, and Tim McManus, vice president for the Partnership for Public Service… and on the phone, Steve Ressler, the founder of GovLoop and co-founder of Young Government Leaders.
Read my notes for the show here.
I have now studied this book — and I hope it will speak to the government market in a few ways.
First — from a capital management perspective, Obama administration and the Office of Personnel Management under director John Berry has been looking at reforming the government's HR systems. Meanwhile, we have seen scores of stories about pay systems like the Defense Department's now defunct National Security Personnel System, which sought to build a pay-for-performance kind of system. I think this book offers some unique insights about the issues surround those topics.
First, the Office of Personnel Management is looking at revamping the government's general schedule system, OPM Director John Berry has said.
Second, the failure of the Defense Department's National Security Personnel System, a pay-for-performance system. I have been fascinated by NSPS because, it seemed to me, it offered some real learning opportunities for the federal government.
Second, and perhaps more important, Drive really has to do with change. We talk about it all the time — culture change. What motivates people to change how they do what they do? How do you encourage them to get away from the, 'That's not the way we do business here.' The book is about what motivates people to make those changes.
Essentially, the book says that it is time for a new way of looking at motivation. In fact, he argues that most of what we know about motivation just isn't based on fact or data.
Drive notes that Motivation 1.0 was about survival — you had to kill the lion to eat, and that proved to be a real motivator.
Motivation 2.0 was about carrots and sticks, and it worked well for industrial age functions, but he argues that in the information age, it is time for…
Motivation 3.0… it is more about purpose, mastery and autonomy.
We always look at motivation in terms of carrots and sticks. But Pink argues that the data simply doesn't back that up. In fact, he says that those kinds of motivators can actually be demotivating.
One of the issues we'll discuss is the pay issue, because Pink passes over that topic a bit too quickly for my liking. He argues that pay needs to be fair and adequate — people need to be able to survive and thrive — but if that is equalized, it isn't really about money.
We'll also talk about Pink's Drive factors — purpose, mastery and autonomy.
For the first half of the program, Tim McManus, Amy and I will talk to Pink about the concepts in the book. In the second half of the hour, we'll talk about how they apply to government.
I hope you'll join us. You can post questions on GovLoop or Facebook… or Tweet me @cdorobek or Amy @AMorris_WFED.

Are the Kansas City Royals on the verge of something special?
For the past couple of years (at least), we heard that the Kansas City Royals farm system was going to save the day. Well, it appeared that way to some of us outside of the KC fanbase. Despite dealing 2013 AL Rookie of the Year Wil Myers previous to the 2013 season, they added a stud starter in James Shields. Adding Ervin Santana stabilized the top of the rotation.
But there was a pleasant surprise to those not familiar with the team.
Some Positives
Quick. Which bullpen led the American League in practically every pitching categories for the 2013 season? That would be the 'pen of the Royals. You could go on and on about which categories: ERA (2.55), FIP (3.21), xFIP (3.38), SIERA (3.04), batting average against (.213), SO/9 (9.57), strand rate (81.4%). There's more, too. That's a post in itself.
And has Kansas City found themselves something special in closer Greg Holland. But it wasn't just him. He had plenty of help from the likes of Tim Collins, Luke Hochevar, Kelvin Herrera and Aaron Crow. Even Bruce Chen got in on some of the action.
The only concern would be the walk rates for Collins and Crow. We'll talk about the 'pen a little later, too.
Who had David Lough figuring into the Royals 2013 outfield situation? With Jeff Francoeur starting the season in right field, Lough's playing time wouldn't be anything like the 96 games in which he played. He started 80 games and compiled a triple slash of .289/.311/.422.
Some Negatives
There was some offensive regression from Alcides Escobar and Mike Moustakas (left).
Escobar has never been one to take a walk, but he was even more hesitant last season. His walk rate of 3.0% had a profound effect on his .259 OBP. And that's a shame because Escobar can create havoc for opponents on the basepaths. He was a prefect 22-for-22 in stolen base attempts. Take that Billy Hamilton…
Moustakas saw his ISO drop from .171 for 2012 to .131 for 2013. And for the second consecutive season, his OBP was below .300. No one would dare accuse him of being an on-base machine, but in his days in the minors, Moustakas had only one season with a OBP below .300. His next lowest: .337 in '08. His April and May were not impressive (.183/.253/.307).
A positive spin would be that Moose did cut down on his strikeouts (20.2% for 2012 to 16.1% for 2013).
When I initially looked at the overall numbers, the stat that jumped out at me most was the Royals lack of scoring. Sure, the team was fifth in batting average (.260), but they were 11th in runs scored (648). The club's wRC+ of 88 was 12th in the AL. And where did that lead me?
RISP. Sure, the Royals were third in batting in that situation, but they also only scored the 9th most runs.
But what was most telling was the team's record for the month of May. Seems simple. Their dreadful 8-20 record for the month was arguably the main reason this club didn't make the postseason. If they play .500 baseball in May, they would have ended the season with the same record as the Cleveland Indians. Cleveland made the wild AL postseason. Could have been even wilder had the Royals thrown their hat in the ring, too.
May was the only month where the Royals played under .500 baseball. You can't win a division – or in this case, postseason spot – in the early months of the season, but you can lose one.
And ponder this thought. If Kansas City goes 15-13 in May, they tie the Detroit Tigers for the AL Central's top spot. What might have been…
Hot Stove Activity
GM Dayton Moore was looking at the unenviable task of replacing Ervin Santana who appeared to have priced himself off the Royals ledger. While no one would dare state Jason Vargas as being "that replacement", Moore was looking for the proverbial "innings eater". Vargas possesses that ability.
Now the rumblings…
Would Kansas City be willing to deal Billy Butler? And I've also read Eric Hosmer. And only yesterday, Bob Dutton of The Kansas City Star stated that the club could deal from its bullpen depth in order to upgrade the second base position. No apologies to Chris Getz fans.
How about Howie Kendrick? That's the name most attached if such a proposal were to come to fruition.
Here it looks like I have the negatives outweighing the positives, but I don't think that's honestly the case. Sometimes it's easier to delve more into negatives than positives. I don't believe the Royals are that far away from creating more buzz. Could it be 2014?
That would not surprise me one bit.

I understand a closed network to be one with out a SSID identifier being broadcast. To make it a closed network, you need to remove your SSID name. SSID is broadcast to make it easier to find and identify a wireless signal. It is the name that is assigned to the wireless base station.

Filled with excitement and intrigue, Collins' latest will keep the reader quickly turning pages to discover what happens next. This tightly plotted mystery, filled with quirky characters, will appeal to suspense lovers everywhere.
Joanne Weeks is frustrated when Baxter Jackson, the husband of her best friend Linda, seemingly gets away with murder — twice. Joanne wants to find the proof that Baxter is guilty so he can be behind bars where he belongs. When a mysterious stranger tells her to find the foster child who lived with the Jacksons because she has information about the crime, Joanne puts her skills to the test. The search proves dangerous for her and everyone connected to the situation. (ZONDERVAN, Jul., 320 pp., $14.99)

My earliest memory is from October 17th, 1997. It is the day my younger sister was born and also the day that my parents locked me out of the house. I had to spend the afternoon at the neighbors. They gave me Oreos and let me watch Ah! Real Monsters, so all was well.

This quote could change someone's life.
(via ashanti-notthesinger)
(Source: black-wolves, via begottencobaltdream)
— Albert Camus (via surbeat)
(via begottencobaltdream)
You can change what you want about yourself at any time. You see yourself as someone who can't write or play an instrument, who gives in to temptation or makes bad decisions, but that's really not you. It's not ingrained. It's not your personality. Your personality is something else, something deeper than just preferences, and these details on the surface, you can change anytime you like.
If it is useful to do so, you must abandon your identity and start again. Sometimes, it's the only way.
Set fire to your old self. It's not needed here. It's too busy shopping, gossiping about others, and watching days go by and asking why you haven't gotten as far as you'd like. This old self will die and be forgotten by all but family, and replaced by someone who makes a difference.
Your new self is not like that. Your new self is the Great Chicago Fire—overwhelming, overpowering, and destroying everything that isn't necessary."
Julien Smith, The Flinch (via evad-e)
I'm in the middle of this process. Sometimes I feel like I'm dragged back to the comfort of the familiar, but more and more I'm realizing that I don't really want that.
Also "Set fire to your old self. It's not needed here." is an absolutely amazing line. That's so dead on right now. Love it.

…I accidentally locked myself out of tumblr.
I blocked a handful of sites in order to be more productive, and I thought I put tumblr in the "20 minutes every 24hrs" section…but apparently I didn't, so it's totally blocked. So I went in to try to edit my list and I had to type some crazy long code and it told me I did it wrong, so I just gave up. Then I realized I could just open it in Firefox (I'm only locked out on Chrome)- so I'll probably do that every now and then.
…so I guess I'll only get on Tumblr like once a week now and end up missing lots of cool stuff. …oops?

November release plans...
by eihrul
on 10/30/2012 08:57, 134 messages, last message: 01/05/2013 08:49, 18665 views, last view: 10/24/2014 13:18
So, I'd like to get the party started so we can have a new release out the door by the end of November.
To that end:
Mappers - <emphasis!!!>FINISH YOUR MAPS AND PUT THEM ON QUADROPOLIS A.S.A.P. SO YOU CAN GET FEEDBACK AND FIX PROBLEMS.</emphasis!!!> I don't want to include broken or unfinished maps in the release. So if you have dreams of getting a map in the release, hurry it up.
Brave players - test the SVN stuff (requires compilation). Make sure nothing is horribly broken so that people don't have to experience horrible breakiness have the release.

We're getting there. There are still things that need to be taken care of. Be patient.
Meanwhile, if people want to help out, you can download the SVN stuff and test it. Just make sure there are no bugs/regressions from the previous release. More testing now means less post-release shittiness later.

svn page is here http://sourceforge.net/p/sauerbraten/code/4415/tree/ there is an svn checkout command there,
svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/sauerbraten/code/ sauerbraten-code
You can see changes in the new version by looking at docs/history.html in svn, and looking at the topmost entry.

#126: SVN and XCode on OSX
by mayhem
on 12/22/2012 03:49
I have a MacBook Pro from 2009 running OSX 10.6.8.
My Video card is an ATI Radeon X1600 and my mouse is a standard logitech G3 gaming mouse.
If I wish to compile from SVN, I must first replace the SDL, SDL_image, and SDL_mixer frameworks included in the XCode directory with the more up to date frameworks that are already on my system.
Also, when running in windowed mode, the menu mouse displays some strange behaviour. With V-sync off, it will slowly increase sensitivity over a span of about 8 seconds before suddenly dropping and slowly increasing again. With V-sync on, it is just erratic. This problem is non-existent in full-screen mode.
Everything else seems to work just fine.
P.S. The new menu layout is very nice

yeap - the mouse thing is a known issue.
Use SDL 1.2.14 and it should be better (could copy these SDL libs from the previous sauer release).
Please let us know if this fixes things for you.
#130: Re: SVN and XCode on OSX
by mayhem
on 12/28/2012 06:04, refers to #129
Thanks for the info guys,
I used SDL 1.2.15 actually. I've never been able to use the included frameworks to compile the xcode.project, even when I tried to build from the source included in a release binary.
Of course, this fixes things for me unless you meant the mouse issue would be better, in which case I can't comment as I didn't notice it before now. Fullscreen FTW!

You can call me Mono - it's a pleasure to meet you. Here you'll find updates from a Master of Science (Zoology) student at Melbourne University, Australia. This is a mismatch of a place; expect updates from within Uni and from out of it. I post about both zoology and its domestic cousin, animal science, and mix photos and pictures with lengthy discussions.
The Eungella Honeyeater (pronounced 'yungella'), Lichenostomus hindwoodi, is a species endemic to Australia. The first specimen was discovered in 1975, though it was incorrectly identified. It wasn't until 1983 that these birds were described and listed as their own species. It has a very small range in a plateau rainforest in Queensland's Clarke Range, and although sightings are unusual it is believed to be a quite common species in this area.

Jenelle Evans RIPS Snooki Over Fake Parenting Quoteby Free Britney at . Comments
Jenelle Evans RIPPED Snooki this week for being a bad mother ... before she's even become a mother and because of a quote Snooki probably didn't say.
Not known for her fact-checking or calm demeanor, this one.
Evans Tweeted out of nowhere: "omg, no offense... but u call ME a bad mother... but look what @snooki said about her baby... thats straight F--KED UP."
What did Snooki supposedly say about her unborn baby?
Jenelle Evans linked to a Reddit photo of Snooki with the quote, "There is no way I'm changing any diapers when my baby is born. That is disgusting."
"That's what maids are for and babysitters. I don't have time for that. I'll have them do that stuff. I'll be there for the good parts, like dressing my son up, making sure he got style. You don't have to cook or clean or change diapers to be a good mother."
"My son will have everything he wants. He's going to be a little star like his mommy."
That's a pretty terrible quote ... but there's no evidence Snooki ever said it. She's mused about her fetus cheering on her orgasms, yes, but nothing like this.
Also, when was the last time Jenelle even SAW Jace? Just asking.
Later, Evans tweeted again, saying, "hahahahaha what did @snooki say back to me? she blocked me from twitter... figures. cant take criticism like i can."
Right Jenelle. We're sure that's it. Hours later, Snook wrote: "FYI, I can't wait to change sh---y diapers & I don't even believe in maids. Just sayin."
True enough ... have you seen the squalor Snooki lives in?!
Jenelle, who are u to say anything! You would rather get high & party all of the time! At least snooki quit all the partying and her son's not even born yet! She's already a better mother than you could ever be, that's why your moms got Jace! Your just jelous that snooki is everything you wanted to be! Time to get over yourself!
okay..first who cares about she said he said shit...everyone talks shit... If it want Janelle I'm pretty sure someone else said it but they're not celebrities so we pay no mind to them...i love snookie but i can careless about a girl who got her so called fame from getting pregnant as a teenager said about her...snookie is going to keep on doing what she needs to do for her child regardless of what anyone says and that's all that matters..people need to grow up already..smh
This is for Jenelle: You don't have the right to comment on what Snooki said or did not say. You left your son in your mothers care for her to take of him and then you were so disrespectful to her. She was doing your stupid ass a favor because she wants the best for her grandson. She works and took on your responsibility. All your ass wanted to do was get high and hang out with your friends and your boyfrie
Why even answer. this is a skank that had a baby before she was even off her moms tit and still on meds. This chicks lower than the ground snooki spits on. And she actually answered. At least Snooki was banking when she was being loose and drinking like a frat boy. This young porn star in training is still as loose as ozone layer and as dumb as someone who thinks "chicken of the sea is made by chicken" who F*****g cares.
Seriously Jenelle Evans (OF ALL PEOPLE!!!) Is the LAST person in the free world to comment on anything someone "might" have said! She was so DEVASTATED THAT SHE HAD TO STOP SMOKING MARIJUANA TO STAY OUT OF JAIL!!!! Hello you dumbass you have a son! And smoking weed with your loser boyfriend is more important?! Atleast Snooki wants to be around her baby! This fool would rather get high then spend time with HER son...That HER MOM IS RAISING!!! Look at yourself before you wana throw stones at other people! OMG I CANT STAND THAT LITTLE GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If this is true. Who is she to say anything? From what I've read it seems like she's not exactly mother of the year. Take a look at your own parenting skills or lack there of before you judge anyone. Word of advice, grow up and act like a parent not like a promiscuous trashy mouthed twit.
Who is she to judge? She never even took care of her son hell she's not even raising him! She's too busy trying to figure out which STD she'd like to have that week! At least Snookie is excited about being a mom and I seriously doubt she even said that. Janelle needs a life or a real nice a$$ beating from someone like I dunno lets say JWOW!I do believe Snooks is gonna be a great mom! Hey Janelle FK Off ya trashy Whore!
*she would much rather spend the time sleeping with whomever is the pick of the day and partying it up like the "bad ass" she likes to pretend to be. She needs to be sent to the military so they can teach her a lesson about life. That, or fall off the face of the planet so she cannot make money from being a nut-job. Either or. :) Just sayin'.
How could Janelle possibly call anyone a bad mother? Snooki hasn't even had her son yet so its impossible to say whether she's a bad mother or not. Even is she doesn't change her sons diapers, at least she'll be there for her kid, Janelle doesn't even take care of Jace. Putting Snooki down doesn't make her look better.
janelle evans comes off as white trash who doesn't even take care of her son and it's hard to take anything she says seriously.

I get many unsolicited resumes from copywriters each month. I get asked all the time about how to become a professional writer. I have only ever had two writing rules.
One I made up but share with many other pros: read whatever you've just written out loud. The other I got from Stephen King's "On Writing" - he says that the second draft should always have 10% fewer words, by actual count, than the first draft. Lately, I have modified this to be a 30% reduction, and I am never disappointed with the results.
(Also: if you're applying for a copywriter job, proofread your cover letter. And resume. Please.)
And now: Watch as I use sexual imagery to sell you corn chips

I think the mean of the grammar of a language depends on whether you are a native speaker of this language or not.
In english grammar, I think for you dear NES friends, as riverkid said grammar is unconscious, I can say it's a reflex.
But for us, it has different meaning, it is one of the aspects of a language like listening, reading, etc. We need to study it to learn it, but you just can live normally to receive the sense of the grammar.
For non-NES, it also depends on the learner, for example for me, I do make grammer mistakes quite often but wouldn't say that I make them much more than the other ESL learners. Ive never been taught grammar in detail; I didnt study by myself either. I dont know which one is past perfect, which one is something continuous tense etc(I don't know in my own language too.. For ex: I sometimes make passive sentences without thinking but if somebody ask me to convert one sentence from active to passive it takes long time to do it.Just my fingers type the letters unconsciously, I dont know whether they are right or wrong. But still this unconsciousness is different from your one, as I always think that "did I make a grammar mistake"?, I believe which's never been a thought of a NES. But on the other hand some Non-NES people know about the grammar even mora than the NES, they know the logic, rules and name of the rules.For them grammar must be a thought. But for you dear teachers, I think grammar has completely different meaning, which I'm not capable of to describe.

Why Liza Lange chose Lake Chelan
QuailsEnd lends itself to the perfect getaway for family and friends. The main floor living area flows to facilitate large gatherings of people. The kitchen is fully stocked and many guests have commented on how much they have enjoyed the kitchen. The house is large allowing a place to bring people together and space for privacy. Lake views from every room bring a peaceful feeling to the house. And of course there is the lake! The slide from the dock to the lake can't be beat. Floating on an air mattress on the lake on a hot day is wonderful!
What makes this house unique
This area is known for 300+ days of sunshine each year, a growing list of wineries, and world-renowned golf courses. QuailsEnd is the perfect place to stay to enjoy all that the area has to offer.
