LONDON — Minnesota Vikings quarterbacks coach Craig Johnson doesn't agree with the fans loudly calling for a change under center, but he's not surprised starter Christian Ponder is under fire after his inconsistent play in the team's 0-3 start.
"I don't feel any different now than I did before," Johnson told USA TODAY Sports on Tuesday after the team arrived for Sunday's international series game against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Wembley Stadium.
"The bottom line is — and he knows this — if you do not win the game, you're getting the blame. That's just the way it is. Suck it up. You're no different than quarterbacks in every other part of the country. When you lose, you're getting the blame. That's part of the deal."
PONDER LIMITED: QB's rib injury limits practice
JUDGMENT: Vikings owner ordered to pay nearly $85M in damages
ELSEWHERE IN NFC NORTH: Lions lose wideout to broken arm
Through three games, Ponder ranks 21st in the NFL in passing yards (230.2 per game), 22nd in completion percentage (59%) and 30th in passer rating (65.9). He has two touchdown passes and five interceptions, including a costly pick-six in the second quarter of the Week 2 loss to the Chicago Bears.
Ponder, 25, played better in the second half of that game and ran for two touchdowns in last week's home opener against the Cleveland Browns, who gave the Vikings' protection unit all it could handle and sacked Ponder six times.

But Ponder heard boos and chants for backup Matt Cassel even before he missed a series of passes down the stretch — none more costly than a bad overthrow of Greg Jennings on third-and-4 preceding the Browns' winning drive.
"He's got to push through," Johnson said. "At the end of the day, we've had the opportunity in the end of the game to have a chance to close it out, and we've got to do that. He's done that (before). We've got to do it. Period."
Drafted 12th overall out of Florida State in 2011, Ponder has been through this before. He was booed at the Metrodome on multiple occasions last season, when he improved in virtually every statistical category over his 11 games as a rookie but went through a ghastly midseason slump.
In a brief interview with USA TODAY Sports after an NFL community event outside Wembley Stadium on Tuesday, Ponder said his confidence "hasn't wavered," though he admitted he's frustrated with how his third NFL season has begun.
"I think our whole team is frustrated in where we're at," Ponder said. "But we're fine. We've got to get this thing changed around."
After the loss to Cleveland, running back Adrian Peterson said he had Ponder's back — something the reigning MVP said when the quarterback struggled last year as well.
Ponder rebounded from that rut and played the best football of his career down the stretch as the Vikings won their last four games and earned a wild-card berth. Johnson said everything he's seen suggests Ponder can do it again.
If it doesn't, the Vikings figure to be in the market for a replacement after the season, and fans may get their wish to see Cassel before it's over.
"He understands the importance of the third year. We know that we want to continue to try to improve," Johnson said. "He's done a lot of good things. We haven't won — that's the number one thing. Quarterbacks are (judged) by your wins.
"He's got to improve consistency all the time. He's put together some good plays, some not so good plays. The biggest thing that I told him and any quarterback is make sure we protect the ball better. We do that, we'll be good."

I'm using Empathy on Ubuntu 12.04 (32 bits) to connect to "people near me", gtalk and facebook. I've been using it for about 2 weeks with no issues.
Then suddenly today the facebook account started dropping, disconnecting and reconnecting all the time. It does connect to facebook (I've found lots of other questions here but it's for people who can't connect -- I can connect and see the logged in users)
After about 20 or 30 seconds it gets disconnected, shows up a "reconnect / edit account" button on the top of the contacts list. If I either press "reconnect" or don't press it, it keeps retrying, getting reconnected, then dropping connection after a few seconds.
I have removed the account and created a new one. It appeared to have worked for about five minutes, then the issue reappeared.

Broad Creek Christian Church in Pamlico County is well-known for its outreach programs � Thanksgiving, Christmas and back-to-school supplies.
Broad Creek Christian Church in Pamlico County is well-known for its outreach programs � Thanksgiving, Christmas and back-to-school supplies.
The Olympia Road church soon will deliver 300 bags of supplies for needy students in Pamlico County and at Craven County�s Bridgeton Elementary School.
This is the fourth year of the project, according to church minister Jeff Swain, who said that in the past the church had bought materials, packed them and then gone into low-income communities for distribution.
Teaming with schools, he said, allowed for a longer-term commitment and a chance to become familiar with counselors and social workers who are aware of community needs.
�We want to show them (students) that God loves them through something as simple as providing them with school supplies,� he said. �The message is God loves you and so do we.�
Broad Creek Christian is just one area church collecting and distributing items students soon will need for school. In New Bern, Trinity AME Zion Church and the Arabian Temple No. 40 Shriners donated school uniforms to neighborhood children. And in Havelock, Cherry Point United Methodist Church recently gave away more than 150 backpacks to area students.
Among the dozens of backpacks given away by Cherry Point Methodist, only one was purple, and almost everyone wanted it. So they drew names, and Jordan Skinner, a sixth-grader at Havelock Middle School, was fortunate enough to get it.
�It�s stylish,� Skinner said as he picked through the various back-to-school supplies inside. �This is great. Better than chicken nuggets.�
The give-a-ways took place as the church, with help from First United Methodist Church of Havelock, fed children free lunches. The summer program is designed to give children who would normally eat school lunches a free, nutritious option while out of school for the summer.
About 120 of the backpacks were donated by Dr. Russell Davis, a Havelock chiropractor.
�The book bags are great. They even have them for teachers,� said Dan Ruffner, a seventh-grade math teacher at Havelock Middle School.
The bags were filled with school supplies such as markers, pencils, pens, paper, notebooks and other things students need for the start of the school year.
Mark Woods, pastor of Cherry Point Methodist, said money from the Bate Foundation and church donations paid for the backpacks and school supplies.
�We try to do what we can to support the community. We�ll do anything to help out,� he said.
The church parishioners also donated hundreds of books for children to take home and read. Children surrounded the book table, stuffing their backpacks full of the books.
Back in Pamlico County, Broad Creek Christian Church bought about $3,500 in supplies that would be needed by students in any grades.
�Walmart has been great to work with,� Swain said. �We found that their prices were the lowest, and they have gone out of their way to help us, shutting down lanes for us to check out. It takes quite a while to collect all this for the various grades.�
Working with the two school systems this year has helped the church Impact Team members get a better handle on what to purchase.
�We talked with teachers and used their expertise as to what was needed,� Swain said.
The bags are in packed with supplies to fit grade-specific students � kindergarten to second grade; third and fourth grade; fifth and sixth grade and seventh through high school seniors.
For example, the kindergarten to second-grade bag has items such as crayons, paper, rulers, safety scissors and even dry-erase markers.
Swain said that the work with the schools needed to be a positive experience, not an embarrassment for the students.
�The schools do a good job trying to get the materials to them in a way that is not intrusive,� he said.
School begins Aug. 26 for students on the traditional calendar in Craven and Pamlico counties.

Here's a great tee that I stumbled upon while perusing Rangga's great site, Cottonable. This is probably the best shirt to have in the event that you find yourself in the middle of a zombie infestation. I always thought that zombies were a bit overrated in terms of the fright factor. I mean, come on, they are such slow movers! Unless of course you're dealing with "I Am Legend" type zombies, in which case, this T-Shirt will probably not help you one bit.Â

Q. My child has severe asthma, and we have been informed that he will not be going out to PE with his first-grade classmates. His teacher says she does running games for PE to help build the cardiovascular health of her students. I accept that. But every PE? Can't I ask that she do some activities that my child can participate in as well? I think making him go to the office every time they go to PE is a little much.
A. I agree with you and I think you should talk with the teacher. We are seeing more and more kids come into our classes with asthma and health issues, and we often have to make adjustments for this.
There are many skills we need to go through as first grade teachers, and not all of them are covered in running games. Those are wonderful activities for kids and I think the teacher should include them in her program as we are also seeing more and more children dealing with obesity sometimes stemming from a lack of physical motivation. I would not ask her to eliminate them entirely, and I think you already agree with that.
Your son's condition may make the teacher nervous, so perhaps you can help her understand his limits and his desire to be included. You used the word 'severe' and the teacher is not a doctor, so she needs help to learn what she can and cannot ask of him.
If you are available to help volunteer at the PE time, that would also help a great deal. Either way, talk to the teacher. Your child could help "coach" his classmates and help with the whistle, etc. during the more rigorous activities so that he is not in the office at this time, but hopefully you can both find a way for him to be included in the other skills we cover, like throwing, catching, kicking, balance, climbing, swinging, and the list goes on and on.
Q. While I want my school to have technology in the classroom, I worry that it will lead to a lack of memorization. I think more people look up information these days rather than hold that information in their memory. Take phone numbers for instance. We used to all know so many of these, now we just type them in our phones. What are your thoughts on this interference caused by the access to information people should hold themselves?
A. You make an excellent point, and this is a sign of changing times. I would still stress the importance of holding information rather than trying to access it all of the time, and educated people should be able to do this.
We are still asking children to memorize facts and hold information in schools, but we are also showing them how to utilize tools that are now a part of our culture and our workforce. Kids need to know how to use the technology of their day, and this has always been true throughout history.
When cars were invented, we walked less, yet driving became a skill we agree all adults need to have. Technology will always change, and accessing information is obviously changing, but kids should still be acquiring facts, memorizing, applying their understanding, developing critical thinking skills, and then contributing to their world by creating the newer technology we will see tomorrow.

PC gamers can return to the islands this fall, as Kalypso Media announces Tropico 3 for North American release this September.
The third title in the popular Tropico series of island management sims once again places players in the role of "El Presidente", the ruler of an island in the Caribbean during the Cold War era. The game centers around developing your island nation, keeping the citizens happy while juggling the various political factions trying to win your influence.
It sounds very much like a remake of the original Tropico by Bulgarian developer Haemimont Games, rather than the full sequel delivered by Frog City Software, the developer of Tropico 2: Pirate Cove. If it manages to carry over the tongue-in-cheek humor from the original title as well as the themes, characters, and settings, it could very well be worth strategy gamers' whiles to plan for an island vacation this fall.

a result, in one month the individual obtained
a total of 2,520 doses of highly addictive,
narcotic medications classified as Controlled
Dangerous Substances.
apparently abusive pattern of purchasing
drugs was revealed this month – and
the discovery was made thanks to the New
Jersey Prescription Monitoring Program (NJPMP).
General Jeffrey S. Chiesa unveiled the NJPMP
as a powerful new tool in the State's
fight against the abuse and diversion of
prescription drugs, and the often-heavy
reimbursement costs of fraudulently-obtained
prescription medication borne by health
insurance companies, the State, and ultimately
General Chiesa noted that prescription drug
abuse is growing at an alarming rate as
a threat to public health and safety:
NJPMP, established by State legislation
and maintained by the Division of Consumer
Affairs, has been collecting detailed data
from 2,000 pharmacies statewide since September
1, 2011. Pharmacies provide data every 15
days on all prescription sales of drugs
classified as Controlled Dangerous Substances
(CDS) and Human Growth Hormone (HGH).
result is a searchable database that includes
detailed information on the sale of these
high-risk drugs when they are dispensed
in outpatient settings in New Jersey, or
by out-of-state pharmacies dispensing into
New Jersey. The information on each transaction
includes, among other things: the patient's
name and date of birth; the dates at which
the prescription was written and the drug
was dispensed; the name, quantity, and strength
of the medication; the method of payment
for the medication; and the identities of
the prescriber and pharmacy. The database
now includes information on approximately
4 million prescriptions dispensed in New
Jersey since September 1.
New Jersey Prescription Monitoring Program
is one of several new tools in our statewide
effort to halt the abuse and diversion of
prescription drugs and promote fiscal integrity
in the healthcare sector," Attorney
General Chiesa said. "The database
will help the Division of Consumer Affairs
and other law enforcement agencies identify
and investigate individuals and businesses
suspected of fraudulently diverting controlled
drugs for abuse. By highlighting the location,
nature, and extent of abuse throughout the
state, the information collected will also
better inform our healthcare initiatives
and addiction-treatment efforts."
information in the database is kept confidential
in compliance with Health Insurance Portability
and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and
Privacy and Security Rules. Under HIPAA
and the State law that establishes the NJPMP,
the Division of Consumer Affairs on January
4, 2012, began allowing State-licensed prescribers
and pharmacists to obtain free accounts
to access and search the database through
a secure website.
practitioners must certify they are seeking
data only for the purpose of providing healthcare
to current patients. Any practitioners who
access or share NJPMP data for any other
purpose are subject to civil penalties of
up to $10,000 for each offense, and disciplinary
action by the practitioner's professional
licensing board.
Division of Consumer Affairs will also provide
case-specific NJPMP information to law enforcement
agencies, pursuant to grand jury subpoenas
or court orders and certifications that
the information is requested for a bona
fide investigation of a specific practitioner
or patient. In addition, the Division is
required to notify law enforcement agencies
or professional licensing boards if the
Division determines a prescriber, pharmacist,
or patient may have violated the law or
committed a breach of prescribers'
or pharmacists' standards of practice.
all know that prescription medication, when
used properly, can alleviate pain and illness.
The darker, lesser-known side of prescription
medication is that, when abused, it can
be just as dangerous, addictive, and deadly
as heroin," said Thomas R. Calcagni,
Director of the New Jersey Division of Consumer
Affairs. "Nationwide surveys show
that many still mistakenly believe prescription
medication is harmless – and this
misperception is fueling a nationwide epidemic
that's sending thousands of New Jerseyans
into addiction treatment centers each year,
and 40 Americans to the grave each day.
The NJPMP is an important tool in our statewide
effort to halt the soaring problem of prescription
drug abuse and diversion."
January 2012 launch is the first phase of
a three-phase process during which the NJPMP
will be further enhanced and expanded, culminating
in approximately May 2012.
addition to its current application for
basic searches of patient- or prescriber-specific
information, the Division of Consumer Affairs
is developing enhancements that will enable
more complex, statistical analyses. When
fully expanded, the NJPMP will generate
reports on geographical areas with unusual
CDS or HGH prescription activity during
a specific time frame; identify practitioners
in each county who prescribed the largest
quantities of a specific drug during a given
time period; and provide other information
that can help identify and compare troubling
patterns of CDS and HGH activity.
R. Crowell, Special Agent in Charge of the
U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, New
Jersey Division, stated, "The DEA New
Jersey Division is committed to fighting
the prescription drug problem with every
available tool possible in order to protect
our citizens. The New Jersey Prescription
Monitoring Program will serve as an invaluable
tool to thwart the spread of this significant
drug threat."
levels of prescribing and dispensing of
controlled drugs are not necessarily indicators
of illegal activity or drug abuse, Attorney
General Chiesa noted. "While working
to stop abuse, we must remain mindful of
the legitimate uses for medication and ensure
practitioners are empowered to meet their
patients' healthcare needs,"
he said.
medical practices, such as those that specialize
in pain management, prescribe larger amounts
of CDS medications than others during the
normal course of providing patient care.
The Division's NJPMP Administrator
will work with investigators from the Division's
Enforcement Bureau to analyze the information
behind NJPMP data reports.
database is an important tool for physicians
and other health care practitioners to have
a complete picture of their patient's
use of prescription medications that are
classified as Controlled Dangerous Substances
and Human Growth Hormones," said Health
and Senior Services Commissioner Mary E.
O'Dowd. "With access to this
information, practitioners and pharmacists
will be able to identify an individual with
a possible substance abuse problem and refer
them to appropriate treatment."
Velez, Commissioner of the Department of
Human Services, said, "The Department
is proud to partner with the Attorney General's
Office on efforts to stem the misuse and
abuse of prescription medication. This new
tracking and monitoring system will serve
as a necessary safeguard and empower pharmacists
in prevention efforts, as well."

Sauvignon Blanc & Sunshine: Marlborough's Perfect Combination
Love Sauvignon Blanc, sunshine and gourmet picnics on the beach? Then don't miss incorporating Marlborough into your New Zealand holiday.
1 / 6
Marlborough is New Zealand's largest wine-growing region; blessed with high sunshine hours and a moderate climate, it's famous for delicious wines, seafood and produce. Here, there's a beautiful freshness to the ocean and the land; food is simple, flavoursome and put together with skill and love. Friendly residents are passionate about the cuisine they produce - living amongst picturesque river valleys and the beautiful Marlborough Sounds, locals are down-to-earth, easy to chat to and love living in this part of the world.
World famous New Zealand
Putting New Zealand on the map as a top Sauvignon Blanc wine producer, Marlborough's version of this varietal is distinct in its gooseberry & capsicum flavours and robust aroma. Some call Marlborough the Sauvignon Blanc capital of the world – a hard invitation to resist if this is your drink of choice! For fans of fragrant, full-bodied Pinot Noir and other red varietals, this region also won't disappoint. Marlborough's wineries are set in picturesque river valleys, next door to native forests and rushing waterways. More than 30 quality wineries surround the tiny town of Renwick, all within a 30-kilometre radius – perfect to explore by pedal power! Quality wine tasting tours, whether by bike or by car, are plentiful in this region.
Local delicacies
Sitting at the meeting point of the Pelorus and Kaiuma rivers in Marlborough is the town of Havelock, one of the world's top producers of green-lipped mussels. A New Zealand seafood delicacy, iridescent-green shells house the large cream or coral coloured meat which can be eaten hot or cold. Havelock is an old gold-mining settlement, and is home to a number of boutique buildings that now house delicious eating establishments. Other local Marlborough seafood delicacies also include salmon and blue cod.
The Marlborough Sounds
The jewel in Marlborough's crown has to be the long, sheltered inlets and white sandy bays of the Marlborough Sounds. Here, emerald hills rise steeply out of the Pacific Ocean, creating an intricate part of coastline that houses sheltered inlets and white-sand beaches. Work up an appetite and make the most of a sunny day by kayaking from bay-to-bay or hiking over the headlands before finding the perfect spot to stop for a picnic.
Does a few days' exploring Marlborough sound like an exciting addition to your New Zealand vacation? Let First Light Travel do the leg work.

It seems my editorial last week came across as critical of the Marion, Centre, and Peabody-Burns school districts, when it wasn't meant to be. But when multiple people get the wrong impression from an editorial, it's possible the problem was with the editorial and not the reader. So here it is, take two.
All of the school districts locally are working hard to accomplish the goals set for them by the state and federal government. You can't fault them for that. But you can fault the state and federal goal-setters for choosing goals that won't prepare students for education after high school — something that is becoming increasingly necessary for students to find prosperity later in life. Despite that need, federal education standards don't include standards for college-readiness.
It falls to local school boards and administrators to set any goals for college readiness. When Hillsboro USD 410 Superintendent Steve Noble saw college-readiness numbers — as interpreted by the ACT — that he wasn't pleased with, he recommended having all seniors take the ACT. If the school district sticks with that plan, it is sure to increase the number of students prepared for the test, because teachers will be able to spend more time on college prep material knowing that the school district specifically wants students prepared for the ACT.
When someone has an idea that is worth considering, it doesn't mean others' ideas are wrong. Our local schools clearly understand that, best exemplified by cooperation on the Technology Excellence in Education Network. One of the reasons we have locally controlled schools is to encourage innovation that can be shared with other schools. Education itself isn't about finding a single answer and sticking with it. It's a constant effort to re-examine answers and find better ones. That is how knowledge advances.
Advertising executive Leo Burnett had it right, "When you reach for the stars, you may not get one, but you won't get a handful of mud either."

it's been awhile
And how I've missed you.
So what better way to usher in my newfound comittment to blogging (do ya like the new layout?) than to share a fabulous easter egg decorating tip:
Wilton edible pearl dust.
Add some to a little water, and paint on the eggs for a gorgeous irridescent look. These are our best yet. This pixie dust actually made me not dread coloring eggs this year. It's the little things. Shimmery little things.

It's been a heady couple of weeks for the world's 1.2 billion Catholics.
It's been a heady couple of weeks for the world's 1.2 billion Catholics.
March 12, cardinals of the church gathered at the Vatican to elect a new pope, thrown into conclave by the first resignation of a sitting pope in nearly six centuries.
The next day, white smoke rose from a chimney above the Sistine Chapel indicating an election. Shortly thereafter the world learned that the first Jesuit ever and the first non-European in 1,200 years had been elected the 266th pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church.
Six days later, Pope Francis, Jorge Mario Bergoglio, archbishop of Buenos Aires, was officially inaugurated.
"We must not be afraid of goodness or even tenderness," he said in his homily before a crowd of as many as 200,000 gathered in front of the Vatican.
And apparently humility, if Francis' actions during his first few days after election are any indication.
He rode the bus with other cardinals back to his hotel, paid his own bill and carried his own bags. This was in keeping with his practice in Buenos Aires of riding the bus to work, doing his own cooking, living in a small apartment and visiting the poor in slums.
Before the installation Mass began, he rode around St. Peter's Square in an open-top jeep to greet the crowds, and at one point stepped off to lay hands on a disabled man.
"I would like to ask all those who have positions of responsibility in economic, political and social life, and all men and women of goodwill: Let us be protectors of creation, protectors of God's plan inscribed in nature, protectors of one another and of the environment," he told the crowd.
"Let us never forget that authentic power is service," he said. "Only those who serve with love are able to protect."
But Francis' calls for goodness and tenderness should not be taken to mean weakness. As one analyst put it, the pope is "a man of steely determination."
He will need to be.
Francis takes the helm of a church growing in Asia and Africa but contracting in its European base. It has been rocked by sexual and financial scandals and leaks from inside the walled-off Vatican. It remains to be seen if the new pope has the steel to reform corruption in the curia, the mostly Italian group of cardinals who run the Vatican, described by the New York Times as "an ancient monarchy in which the pope is treated like a king, branches of the hierarchy are run like medieval fiefs and supplicants vie for access and influence."
How he deals with those challenges could define his papacy and how it serves the 1.2 billion Catholics worldwide.
While Pope Francis' style is decidedly different than his predecessor, Benedict, their positions on church orthodoxy - sexuality, abortion, marriage and contraception - are similar. Francis has said same-sex marriage attacks God's plan, and that gay people adopting children is an act of discrimination against children.
In an increasingly secular world, especially in Europe and the United States, such positions will find less and less appeal.
Still, a Reuters/Ipsos poll showed that of those who are aware of the new pope, 85 percent of all U.S. adults surveyed had a favorable view of him, including 94 percent of Catholics.
Churches aren't run by polls, but as an indication of how receptive Catholics and non-Catholics will be to what seems to be a new direction Pope Francis can look forward to the honeymoon period he deserves.

The oustanding wallpaper is segment of Cycling Shoes: Top 5 Benefits piece of writing which is listed within , , and posted at December 16, 2016 11:53:45 am by Sport Reviewer
Cycling Shoes: Top 5 Benefits: Shimano Wide Cycling Shoes
Even though it is perfectly acceptable to take a bike ride around your neighborhood in a pair of ordinary sneakers, cycling shoes give you real benefits if you want to use cycling as true exercise or a sport. This is true for both fans of street biking and trail riding. The shoes make all the difference in your comfort levels and performance.
1 – Cycling Shoes Fit Better
Take the time to shop around and try on a lot of brands and models before choosing the perfect shoes for you. They are an investment in your sport.
2 – Cycling Shoes Work Your Whole Leg
With toe cages or clips, shoes allow you to pull up on the back pedal at the same time you are pushing down at the front. This not only gives you a better workout but also can increase performance.
3 – Cycling Shoes Never Slip
Any time your foot slips off the pedal, you risk injury, accident or at least a drastic reduction in speed and control. Shoes are designed not to slip and to fit securely inside any toe cages or clips.
4 – Cycling Shoes Improve Your Speed
Because your foot will not slip off the pedals and due to the harder sole, shoes help you increase performance and speed. Take your bike ride to the next level.
5 – Cycling Shoes are Just Plain Cool
Anyone who is serious about the sport of cycling opts for dedicated footwear when they hit the road. For those who care about fashion and style, shoes offer plenty.
The wonderful digital imagery is part of Cycling Shoes: Top 5 Benefits has dimension 1000 x 1000 pixel. You can download and receive the Shimano Wide Cycling Shoes images by click the download button below to get multiple high resolution versions.

New for 2015
Showa Suspension. ABS Brakes.
All-new features and a host of refinements make one of the most dynamic motorcycles on the planet even more entertaining. Showa suspension keeps the bike perfectly balanced whether you're pointed at the apex, powering over choppy terrain, or sailing along your favorite ribbon of singletrack. The upgraded suspension perfectly complements improved wheels clad with Pirelli Scorpion MT-90 tires for better traction on everything from smooth pavement to dirt roads.
The advanced Bosch anti-lock braking system (ABS) improves safety in a wide array of conditions, ensuring the best performance out of newly tuned hydraulic ratios. Of course, ABS can be disabled when the adventure leads off road. Riders will notice stylish mirrors that provide excellent rearward visibility and reduce motorcycle width. Comfortable new grips are made of a softer rubber compound, and a more robust throttle seamlessly controls the Z-Force® motor's 70 ft-lbs of torque.

It's your chance to help the Oracle APEX team to spreading the word about Oracle APEX. They want to convince the Oracle eBusiness Suite/Oracle Applications team to formally legitimize the use of Oracle Application Express with the Oracle eBusiness Suite/Applications. I think that would be another huge step to get Oracle APEX into more companies if it can be officially used to write custom applications in that environment.
But they need your help! Check out David Peake's blog posting for more details.

The Inchcape Rock (unsourced)
No stir in the air, no stir in the sea,
The ship was still as she could be;
Her sails from heaven received no motion;
Her keel was steady in the ocean.
Without either sign or sound of their shock,
The waves flowed over the Inchcape Rock;
So little they rose, so little they fell,
They did not move the Inchcape Bell.
The holy Abbot of Aberbrothok
Had placed that Bell on the Inchcape Rock;
On a buoy in the storm it floated and swung,
And over the waves its warning rung.
When the Rock was hid by the surge's swell,
The mariners heard the warning Bell;
And then they knew the perilous Rock,
And blest the Abbot of Aberbrothok.
The sun in heaven was shining gay;
All things were joyful on that day;
The sea-birds screamed as they wheeled round,
And there was joyance in their sound.
The buoy of the Inchcape Bell was seen,
A dark spot on the ocean green;
Sir Ralph the Rover walked his deck,
And he fixed his eye on the darker speck.
He felt the cheering power of spring;
It made him whistle, it made him sing:
His heart was mirthful to excess,
But the Rover's mirth was wickedness.
His eye was on the Inchcape float.
Quoth he, "My men, put out the boat
And row me to the Inchcape Rock,
And I'll plague the Abbot of Aberbrothok."
The boat is lowered, the boatmen row,
And to the Inchcape Rock they go;
Sir Ralph bent over from the boat,
And he cut the Bell from the Inchcape float.
Down sank the Bell with a gurgling sound;
The bubbles rose and burst around.
Quoth Sir Ralph, "The next who comes to the Rock
Won't bless the Abbot of Aberbrothok."
Sir Ralph the Rover sailed away;
He scoured the sea for many a day;
And now grown rich with plundered store,
He steers his course for Scotland's shore.
So thick a haze o'erspread the sky,
They cannot see the sun on high:
The wind hath blown a gale all day,
At evening it hath died away.
On the deck the Rover takes his stand;
So dark it is they see no land.
Quoth Sir Ralph, "It will be brighter soon,
For there is the dawn of the rising moon."
"Canst hear," said one, "the broken roar?
For methinks we should be near the shore."
"Now where we are I cannot tell,
But I wish I could hear the Inchcape Bell."
They hear no sound; the swell is strong;
Though the wind hath fallen, they drift along
Till the vessel strikes with a shivering shock:
"O Christ! it is the Inchcape Rock!"
Sir Ralph the Rover tore his hair,
He curst himself in his despair:
The waves rush in on every side,
The ship is sinking beneath the tide.
But, even in his dying fear,
One dreadful sound could the Rover hear,--
A sound as if with the Inchcape Bell
The Devil below was ringing his knell.
This work was published before January 1, 1924, and is in the public domain worldwide because the author died at least 100 years ago.

I haven't been blogging much lately (sorry!), but I have been writing a lot on LinkedIn. I got caught up in a powerful discussion in the group for CILIP, the U.K's Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals. Here's the question that started the online discussion:
What are the top 5 things we can all do to ensure the integrity and future of the profession?

Rugby Premiership betting tips for the weekend of August 31 - September 2
Gloucester vs Northampton (Saturday, 14:00 BST)
I've been throwing out a lot of my food because I physically feel like I cannot eat that much, and if I do eat too much then I don't feel so good. However, I'm learning to keep all my meals small and frequent (just like I should have been doing all along!).
I plan to definitely buy this product again, I really love it and finally, I've successfully changed my eating lifestyle. Dieting is Out.

ATLANTA — Matt Bryant kicked his second game-winning field goal in three weeks, a 55-yarder with 1 second remaining, and the Atlanta Falcons remained unbeaten with a sloppy 23-20 victory over the Oakland Raiders on Sunday.
Overcoming Matt Ryan's three interceptions, the Falcons (6-0) extended the best start in franchise history. But it wasn't easy against the pesky Raiders (1-4).
Atlanta pulled ahead when Asante Samuel returned an interception 79 yards for a touchdown with 2:40 remaining, only to wind up tied again when Carson Palmer led Oakland down the field for a tying score. Darren McFadden powered in from the 2 with 40 seconds left.
That was just enough time for Ryan and Bryant to pull off another fourth-quarter victory. Ryan completed four passes to set up the winning kick. With the game tied at 13 and the clock winding down, the Raiders were in position to attempt a go-ahead field goal. Then, on third-and-6 from the Atlanta 28, Palmer tried to hit Denarius Moore with a pass along the sideline. Samuel read it all the way, stepping front of the receiver to make the pick and taking off the other way, right in front of the Atlanta bench.
The cornerback shook off a weak attempt at a tackle by Palmer around the 20 and strutted into the end zone, where he was pummeled by his teammates.
The Raiders weren't done, though.
Palmer completed two short passes before finding Derek Hagan breaking free down the sideline, having gotten past Samuel. Hagan hauled it in for a 38-yard completion and nearly scored, getting dragged out of bounds by Samuel.
Two plays later, McFadden finished off the drive. Turns out, Oakland left a little too much time on the clock.
The Falcons had experience in these situations, rallying to beat Carolina just two weeks earlier.
Backed up on their own 1-yard line with just over a minute left, Ryan completed a long pass to Roddy White and Bryant knocked through the winning kick with 5 seconds left.
This time, the 37-year-old kicker connected on his longest field goal since joining the Falcons in 2009. Bryant put it through with plenty to spare, giving the Falcons another hard-fought win heading into their bye week.

About 70,000 kids sit behind bars in the U.S. at any given time, according to the Campaign for Youth Justice.
And Richard Ross is telling their stories.
The photographer and University of California — Santa Barbara professor visited about 300 facilities across the country and spoke with more than 1,000 juvenile inmates about how they got to where they are.
"They're all teenagers and teenagers by definition make bad decisions," Ross told Business Insider.
Click here to jump straight to the pictures >
Most of the young inmates filling America's detention facilities are there for truancy, marijuana, or a whole host of arguably minor crimes.
To fight the growing tide of incarcerated teenagers, Ross said it's time to do away with zero tolerance, a policy he says just doesn't work.
Instead of spending so much time and money locking kids up, he advocates for putting that money back in the community and using it to fund more teachers and effective after-school programs.
Ross, who has published a book on his work with juvenile inmates, said he wants to use his pictures to put a face on the issue of kids as young as 7 being locked up.
"They exist," he said. "They're real people."
Ross will soon head to Miami to visit a teen who has sat behind bars for four years and four months without a trial.
"He has alleged crimes stacked against him but he's not the only kid in this situation," Ross said.

Vermont State Police are looking for the driver of a box truck that shattered a cross beam and tore the trim on a covered bridge in Dummerston, believed to be the longest covered bridge still in use in the state.
Police said the Budget rental truck crashed into the West Dummerston Covered Bridge at about 5:15 p.m. Sunday. The truck stopped briefly, but the police said the driver did not report the accident.
The town's highway supervisor says the bridge did not sustain any structural damage and is still safe for travel.
The 280-foot-long bridge was built in 1872 and crosses the West River.

Taking pics of awesome smelling food, especially when you are hungry, is quite torturous and so I haven't really done justice to how great it actually is, so pardon the pics.
The chicken masala can be made in a pressure cooker to reduce cooking time. Although Shab advices against it.
Try the exact same recipe with mutton, if you prefer that.

Sometimes I wonder if people want to be successful, or if they just want to be famous.
There are times in someone's life when they can't have one without some of the other. However, I observe people who are very successful and they don't seem to realize it at all. They are seemingly chasing fame instead of celebrating the success they already have and the added success coming their way. The level of success they currently have is spectacular and impressive, and they are already accomplished and awesome, but they are constantly minimizing it themselves and their success because they desire to have fame and a lot fans. Having fame and fandom on any level isn't at all what it's cracked up to be. Being famous involves a lot of responsibility that many people truly can't handle. Sometimes being famous can actually destroy your success.
Success requires work, sacrifice and maintenance. Remember all of those college classes you took and that student loan debt for those degrees? That was work. Remember all of the friends you lost and relationships that failed because you were studying or working? What about the long days and nights you spend striving towards meeting a deadline? Those are sacrifices. Think about your continuing education or leadership classes, conferences and networking events you attend. That is maintenance.
Fame is fleeting and unpredictable; it can help, but it can also hinder. Fame also has limitations. Everyone has different gifts and talents when they come into this world that makes them unique and contributes to the quality of their lives. When you are aware of what your gifts and talents are you can use them towards being a success, instead of trying to emulate others. Everyone won't be a famous author. I know this because I receive phone calls and emails from people who haven't completed a manuscript. Everyone won't be a YouTube sensation overnight or at all. Yet daily people invest a great deal of time in doing so. Every woman with curves won't become the next Kim Kardashian or Amber Rose, but on a daily basis women strike a pose on Instagram in hopes of being discovered. Becoming famous for most people who do isn't about their gifts or talent. They are dependent on societal trends and timing. Without that fame formula coming in to play for them, we'd never have heard of them at all. Years from now we won't remember most of those famous individuals for anything meaningful, if we remember them at all.
I've learned that you can't reach the next level of anything in your life or career if you don't appreciate where you are currently at. Appreciate the success you have today, no matter how small you may think it is. There's something to be said for having gratitude in your current situation. There's a lesson in this moment of your life that you need to learn in order to elevate to the next level.
Even if your name is never in lights on a marquee, strive to be success in your life, not famous. Success comes in various forms. For many people success is being able to pay their bills on time, feed their children and help others in their communities. Success for some people is never going before a judge or having their children go to college. Success for some people is having an opportunity to go a job they love everyday. Success is what the people who matter in your life will remember you for when you are gone.
Gratitude is extremely powerful and pushes you closer to your purpose in this world. Be grateful for what you have in your life and career today. Change your perspective and begin working towards improving upon the success you have without expecting to become famous for it. Your life will be more fulfilling and you will be happier when you do.
"Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things." Robert Brault

Fantails at The Riverbank Homestay and B&B
My friend "Pi"
Just about the sweetest bird we will find in the bush and garden.
1 / 3
Just about the sweetest bird we will find in the bush and garden.
My friend Pi (short for piwakawaka) has been at our property for 5 summers and this will be his 6th.
It started with piwakawaka when we first moved here but he passed on the next year and then while working away in the garden area sometime later a piwakawaka sat in the corpsma chatting to me and after a short time I started a conversation and it wasn't long before I decided it might like the bin opened. That bird flew to the bin along side me and sure enough it flew into the bin when I opened it. How it knew about the bin I don't know but the world of creatures is more complicated than we can appreciate. All these years later this little bird still has me under his control.
Working quietly in the garden I will become aware that there is a presence near by making wee noises. We have a chat about "waiting a minute, I am busy" to "oh alright come on lets go to the bin," and off we go, Pi flying beside me or just behind. I guess flying behind me means he can pick up the odd bug that I might disturb.
Windy days keep him in the bush and I get a lot more done in the vegetable patch.
Working along side this tiny bird has made me curious about the life of piwakwaka. Just how long do they live, what size territory do they need.
We are quite sure Pi only has two broods a year as by the time December ends he has the tattiest tale and is well into his moult, and seems to stop breeding. Which would make sense, moulting is not an easy time.
We have been up close when the fledglings leave the nest and sadly we witnessed the demise of the youngest of the four chicks, just a bit too young to fly, it seems it was left to fend for itself, as it was on the ground, needless to say it probably did not live long, it was a bit distressing but we have to be real about life.
Winter can be a rough time for these little birds so we keep our compost bin well stocked so the vinegar flies breed, leaving the lid open just a little bit keeps Pi well fed when I am not here.
