IDM was a big issue in our relative region last year. Rather than stick our head in the sand and grow the same number of walleriana again this year, we've embraced alternatives. Sunpatiens have moved from bit player to major role. So far, so good, but we've gotten a few questions I can't confidently answer. I'm turning to you guys!
1. Are Sunpatiens deer resistant?
2. Is one series of Sunpatiens (Vig v Spreading v Compact) more likely to flop than others? I've not seen it in production, but I've not grown big banks of them in the landscape either.
3. Is the bloom better in the shade with Sunpatiens than traditional New Guineas? I think the asnwer here is no, but I'd like some corroboration.
4. Do vigorous Sunpatiens really get 36-48" tall? That's really big. When I've seen them in trials, they haven't been that big.
What did you think of the ones in the photo? Looks like Rakers garden trial.
I can't say that I see any real difference between Sunpatiens and New Guineas.
Here's an article we had on how to produce Sunpatiens. Hope this helps.
I asked the same questions in a few different forums and forgot to update this one when I got the info I needed. For those of you who may be interested, here's what I found.
1. The perpetual deer question. Are SunPatiens resistant to deer browsing? Yes and no. Several people weighed in to say they'll eat them, but they're not high on the preferred food list. If you have heavy deer pressure in your area, I wouldn't count on them being resistant.
2. Is one series more likely to flop than another? I received a unanimous "no" on this one. No one who responded has had any issues with any of the series flopping even when spaced closer together than necessary. It WAS pointed out that they love water and wilt when too dry but recover nicely.
3. Do SunPs bloom better in the shade than traditional NGs? The answer here was "sort of". SunPs allegedly have smaller flowers, but they'll bloom through the heat when traditional NGs sometimes stop flowering.
4. Does the Vigorous series of SunPs really get 3-4 FEET tall and wide. Again, a resounding "maybe". In the south, if planted early, with regular food, and unlimited water, they can get that tall. A landscaper customer in Northern VA who's used them for several years said hers don't get that tall or wide.

Dealers see rise in F&I profit per vehicle
Seventy-five percent of car dealers responding to a survey late last year said they expected their gross F&I profit per vehicle to rise in the fourth quarter.
In the poll of public and private new-vehicle retailers by KeyBanc Capital Markets in December, three-quarters of respondents said they expected their gross F&I profit per vehicle to increase by more than $50 in the fourth quarter. KeyBanc would not say how many retailers were surveyed.
The "financing environment remains favorable and a continued driver of sales growth," wrote Brett Hoselton, auto industry analyst for Cleveland-based KeyCorp, in a note to investors on Jan. 22, which included the survey results.
Most of the six large publicly traded dealership groups are expected to report fourth-quarter financial results next month.
The survey, launched in 2012, asks new-car dealers about the state of their business. Each month, respondents are asked what they expect their current quarterly results will be compared with the same quarter the year before.
In December, 75 percent of respondents said they expected their fourth-quarter gross F&I profit per vehicle would increase by more than $50; 25 percent said results would be relatively flat.
F&I results aren't available for privately held stores. But in the fourth quarter of 2011, the six large public groups had a combined average of $1,102 per vehicle, based on company earnings reports.
Said Hoselton: "We also anticipate an increase in total revenue in the F&I segment, driven by higher gross profit per unit, higher new- and used-vehicle sales, and higher approval rates particularly in the subprime segment."

'Chiru unavailable'
VIJAYAWADA: Observers sent by the Praja Rajyam Party (PRP) leadership to take stock of the affairs in Krishna district in the aftermath of elections faced severe criticism from the cadres at the review meeting on Wednesday.
The leaders faced the ire of some party workers, who did not get a chance to speak. "We gave slips first to express our feelings. But, you allowed others to speak. This kind of attitude has led the party to debacle," they shouted.
The cadres held the leadership responsible for the drubbing the party received in the general elections, and suggested that it should change its "mindset and style of functioning" for a better future.
Visibly livid party activists raised a wide range of issues, including selection of candidates, election symbol, electoral alliances and failure to cash in on the people's problems like spiralling prices.
"The opposition parties, including ours, ignored the issues that directly concerned the public, and it helped the Congress to retain power. The party should rebuild organisationally, and prepare for the local body elections," the activists said.
'Chiru unavailable'
They said most of them were diehard fans of party president Chiranjeevi, and they did not aspire for a post or profit. All they wanted was a "photograph with Chiranjeevi and an opportunity to shake hands with him." But, he was hardly available for the visitors, they said.
"The party would have pocketed 30 more seats and become a king-maker had it entered into an electoral alliance with the Lok Satta Party. Our party could have won at least 30 segments more, but for the presence of the Lok Satta Party," said Y. Ramakrishna, an activist.
Suresh, another activist, was furious against the selection of "wrong candidates." "In the name of social justice, you (leadership) have backed the wrong horses," he said.
Former Ministers Kotagiri Vidyadhara Rao and Metla Satyanarayana Rao, who were sent as observers by the party leadership, and local leaders suggested to the cadres not to excessively worry about the past and, instead, work for the future. The party should be strengthened from the grassroots level to see to it that Mr. Chiranjeevi became the Chief Minister at least next time. The PRP was the only alternative to the Congress, and it would come to power in 2014, they asserted
Symbol change
All the speakers said there was an imminent need to change the party symbol. The Congress fielded dummy candidates whose names were closer to the names of PRP candidates, and these dummy candidates contested on road roller symbol and confused the voters, the speakers said.
PRP MLAs Vellampalli Srinivas (Vijayawada West), Yalamanchili Ravi (Vijayawada East), former MLAs Vangaveeti Radhakrishna and Buragadda Vedavyas, former MP K. P. Reddaiah and others were present.
Chiru's last hope to Become CM
Praja Rajyam Party president Chiranjeevi is reconciled to the fact that he cannot become Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh this time.
However, there is still a last hope for him to realise his dream. If Chiranjeevi gets 45-50 seats and the Congress gets around 100 seats, then he can come to an understanding with the latter to form a joint government, on the lines of BJP-Janata Dal (S) arrangement in Karnataka. And he can share the chair with the Congress nominee (YSR or DS) in turns. That is the only option available to him. The question is whether it is possible with Y S Rajasekhara Reddy in chair. Who knows, this can also be a possibility!
YSR takes potshots at Chiranjeevi
PALACOLE (WEST GODAVARI DISTRICT): Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy on Monday trained guns on PRP president Chiranjeevi at an election rally in the coastal town where the latter is his party Assembly candidate. Dr. Reddy devoted most of his time to target the actor-turned leader in an apparent bid to counter his film glamour on his home turf. "Politics does not mean a two hour movie nor a couple of duets", the Chief Minister heckled at Chiru's debut in politics while describing his party as a "Cinemala party". He sought to know as to why Mr. Chiranjeevi preferred Palacole, his in-laws place, by deserting his birthplace Narsapur, to fight the election. Saying that the PRP chief was fighting a lady candidate, Bangaru Usha Rani from the Congress, Dr. Reddy questioned, "Is it the kind of social justice Mr. Chiranjeevi harps on day in and day out".
Dr. Reddy depicted himself as a saviour of the farmers from nature's vagaries and rural distress. Recalling that the whole Godavari delta faced a serious threat of withering for want of adequate water in the Godavari in the rabi, he said the government had made strenuous efforts to save the standing crop by drawing water from Orissa and the other different sources.
"We have not allowed the standing crop on even in a single acre to wither away", he asserted. He sought farmers' support to his party on the planks of the modernisation of the Godavari delta and the Indira Sagar Project. He said the Grand Alliance was a 'stumbling block' to the irrigation projects, including the Indira Sagar in the coastal region.
Braving a sour throat, the Chief Minister hit the road in West Godavari district by addressing a slew of election meetings at Jangareddygudem, Koyyalagudem, Tanuku, Ganapavaram, Palacole, Bhimavaram, Denduluru and made a night halt at Eluru. The oppressive mid-summer heat seemingly failed to deter him from undertaking a marathon roadshow from Ganapavaram to Eluru.

Roja again Locks on Chiru Rail Eigne Symbol
After keeping lull for a couple of weeks, Telugu Mahila president Roja is back to Chiranjeevi bashing.
Addressing election meetings at Tirupati, Roja said there was no democracy or social justice in the PRP and its leaders were selling tickets to rich and mighty. "It is no more Praja Rajyam. It has become Dhana Rajyam. Only those who can pump in money are being recognised there and sincere and honest people do not have place in that party," she said.
The Telugu Desam leadership is learnt to have asked Roja to do campaign in Tirupati, too, after Chiranjeevi filed his nomination from there. So, she shifted her focus from Chandragiri to Tirupati to do Chiru bashing. Better, she concentrate on her own constituency; otherwise, she would end up on losing side.

Praja Rajyam Party Resigning Leaders List News
Ch. Venkateswar Rao
Anjaneya Reddy
And now Parakala Prabhakar
The list seems to be endless. Why this exodus from the Praja Rajyam?
Except one or two all other are persons of their own stature and commitment to the society. We can not afford to lose their services just because of our materialistic behavior. Let us put a full stop here.
In a major setback to Chiranjeevi's Praja Rajyam Party, its General Secretary Mr. Prakala Prabhakar on Thursday resigned from the party and lashed out at its top leadership over the selection of candidates and style of functioning.
Mr. Parakala Prabhakar, a former Bharatiya Janata Party leader, was one of the first leaders to join the MegaStar's party. His resignation came after days of speculations that Prabhakar, the only Brahmin leader of the party, had decided to quit after he was denied a party ticket. He was also reportedly upset about the PRP leadership denying tickets to several candidates recommended by him, amid allegations that Chiranjeevi's brother in law Allu Aravind had sold the tickets for Crores of rupees.
Prabhakar is among several top leaders of the party who have resigned in the last few days. Former state intelligence chief and retired Indian Police Service Officer Mr. C Anjaneya Reddy, who was the founder Vice President of the party, has also resigned. Speculations are rife that P Mitra, party General Secretary and Chiranjeevi's advisor, is also planning to quit.
After the media started playing up the news of Prabhakar's resignation, a shaken Allu Aravind rushed to his residence to placate him. But Prabhakar refused to meet Aravind.
"PRP has turned into a poisonous tree and I have don't have the strength to uproot this tree. This tree is poisoning the state politics," the disgruntled leaders told reporters.
In a stinging attack on Chiranjeevi and the coterie around him, Prakala Prabhakar said that PRP had become a business house and he can not be part of the 'PRP company'.
"I have not taken this decision out of anger or rage but with a lot of pain and agony. There are inherent flaws in the party and no body can correct it," he added.
Continuing his attack, Prabhakar claimed that he failed to understand why the "PRP had been launched."
"The promise of change the party had made remains unfulfilled. The objective of the party seems to be completely different," Lashing out at Prabhakar, PRP's official spokesperson P Upendra said that he had quit the party because he had been denied a ticket. "We regret his resignation because he was a senior leader in the party. But we don't think it will weaken the party," he stated.

Chiru to contest against YSR in Pulivendula
The Praja Rajyam party chief Chiranjeevi is now looking confident after conducting his road shows in the state. He is overwhelmed with the huge response to his road shows.
Chiranjeevi is also confident of bagging a majority on his own after the EC agreed to give him a common symbol. The PRP will be given the symbol 'Rail Engine' on April 2.
Chiranjeevi is now reported to have decided to take on chief minister YS Rajashekar Reddy in his home turf – Pulivendula.
Chiru wants to show to his cadre that he is capable of defeating YSR and his corrupt government. It is understood that some party workers suggested to Chiru to contest in Kuppam against the TDP chief Chandra Babu Naidu also.
Okay, okay, before you get excited with the news of the impending 'Big' Fight' take a moment to look at the calendar.

Total prohibition, if comes to power: Chiru
Muramalla (East Godavari dt.): Praja Rajyam president Chiranjeevi has expressed the resolve to achieve total prohibition if the party comes to power. The focus will be initially on removing belt shops. The PRP is also committed to implementing the Rs. 100 package of food items on which it has done the homework. The party's intention is to reduce the cost of living but not to merely compete with other parties in using populism as a means to garner votes.
Addressing a press conference here hours before winding up his Praja Ankita Yatra of East Godavari district on Tuesday, Mr. Chiranjeevi said his party announced a slew of welfare schemes on the basis of expert advise and there was no reason why it could not keep its promises.
Gas share
The PRP might face difficulties in fulfilling the people's aspirations but it firmly believed that nothing was impossible if corruption was checked. The PRP also decided to do its best to secure the State's share in K-G basin gas reserves discovered by Reliance Industries Limited and to set up State Gas Corporation if the need arose. The State's share would be protected first before thinking of gas supply to domestic consumers.
"The Chief Minister is giving a wrong picture that I am opposed to Rajiv Arogyasri and Jala Yagnam whereas my stand has been consistent that corruption is defeating the purpose of those schemes. It is understandable that the Chief Minister is trying to mislead the people and, by doing so he is acknowledging that the PRP has grown into a force to reckon with," observed Mr. Chiranjeevi.
Security problem
Mr. Chiranjeevi said security was a big problem in East Godavari district as the police have apparently failed in doing their duty properly. His entourage could move with great difficulty particularly in Konaseema area but the police appeared to be unconcerned as there was no crowd control at all. However, he was told by Superintendent of Police Y Nagi Reddy during a telephonic conversation, that some PRP leaders sounded confident of ensuring safety of their leader, which was not the reality.
Later, speaking at a packed roadshow at Amalapuram, Mr. Chiranjeevi compared the plight of people of Andhra Pradesh during the Congress and TDP regimes with what Lord Rama had endured in His 14-year-long exile in the forests (Vanavasam). "Bring back Rama Rajyam to put an end to your ordeals," he said.

Balaiah thigh-thumping before Roja
Nandamuri Balakrishna, Telugu Desam Party's only show master at present, is doing too much thigh-thumping these days; and thereby becoming a laughing stock before the people.
On many occasions, people are deliberately asking him to thump thighs just for fun. They want to see how Balaiah would react to their demand. And when he does, they are laughing at him.
On Tuesday, Balaiah thumped his thighs and twirled his moustache in front of Roja, who is contesting from Chandragiri constituency. He thought he would prove his "manliness" before his ex-heroine in many films. Roja, just smiled and turned her face to the other side!

Praja Rajyam loses hope in Telangana
With polling just 15 days away, the Praja Rajyam leadership has decided to focus on Andhra and Rayalseema regions as it is losing hopes on the Telangana region where it has no organisational base.
The ongoing tour of the PR chief, Mr Chiranjeevi, in Godavari districts strengthens this view as he would continue to tour these districts till April 3, says a source.
Interestingly, Chiranjeevi's actor brother and Yuva Rajyam president, Mr Pavan Kalyan, is taking up a three-day tour in Vizianagaram, Srikakulam and Visakhapatnam districts. Mr Pavan, who is also looking after Telangana affairs cancelled his tour in Mahbubnagar district to campaign in north Andhra. Party sources said the leadership feels that focusing on regions where the party has a clout is better than concentrating on the entire state, "We enjoy considerable sway in Andhra and Rayalaseema regions. So we will focus our attention in these regions to win maximum seats," said a senior leader on condition of anonymity. Right from the inception of the party, the PR has failed to evoke a good response in Telangana despite its categorical support to separate statehood for Telangana.

So fingers what can u do with them? The tickle, they tingle, they soothe and caress. Here's how to make the most of ur foreplay with ur hands.
1. Caress- run ur hands sensually over ur partner, touching all those hot spots that don't normally get attention. You'll know when u find one. Ur partner will react in some way. Stiffen, moan, writhe.
2. Soothe- rub it partners back in slow circles, waves or finger light touches. Vary your technique and speed for optimal stimulation.
3. Massage- use ur hands and fingertips to massage ur partner front and back. Soles of the feet, calves, thighs, inner thigh, belly, chest, back, and arms. Again vary between hard and soft and watch for ur partners reactions. Find what they like, what makes them moan or what the don't like and don't forget the shoulders and neck.
Ticking- play a game find where ur partner is ticklish and cress there lightly. It will usually light the up and turn sensual.
There is always the inside and outside massage for a woman. Focus on her clit and outlet lips. Then the inside. Find the area that stimulates her most. Some times it's two fingers crooked and held just inside the top of her opening opposite her clit. Sometimes it a gentle massage of her cervix or behind it. Be careful with this one as it can hurt if ur not used to being touched there regularly.
On a man u can massage his shaft using different techniques with ur hands. And don't forget his boys. Those are important but unless ur into torture or he is be gentle.
And above all have fun!

Writ: Jane Goldman & Matthew Vaughn based on the graphic novel by Mark Millar & John Romita Jr.
With all the people out there who love comic books, with all those millions of people who love superheroes, why hasn't anyone ever tried it. That's what Dave Lizewski wonders. It isn't that he thinks it is sensible, but surely it stands to reason that someone, somewhere will try it? Or has tried it? Well, why not him. So he goes online and buys a scuba diving suit, and low and behold, Kick-ass is born. Things do not go well for him. He's a weedy teenager out on his own trying to fit the bad guys. He gets his ass kicked, on more than one occasion, but he also gets famous. And comes to the attention of Big Daddy and Hit-Girl, two real superheroes who know enough about their job to keep themselves totally secret. Did I mention that Hit-Girl is like eleven or something?

They Come To America II
Dennis and I will be discussing the explosive revelations that he exposed in this documentary – THIS IS A MUST TUNE IN!
IT'S THE FILM THAT COULD KILL THE IMMIGRATION BILL but you can't see it in a theater because Hollywood and the mainstream media reject films made by Dennis Michael Lynch.
The Cost of Amnesty is the most action-packed, truth revealing, in your face documentary ever to be made about illegal immigration. With Congressman Peter King, Mayor Rudy Giuliani and AZ Attorney General Terry Goddard, the film provides the best argument for rejecting the current immigration bill.
In THEY COME TO AMERICA II there is a scene where I am working the borders in Texas and find a militia-style cap with Arabic writing on the tag. Attached is a link to the scene.
This is one of the most powerful scenes in the film. The number of Asian/Chinese coming across the border is rarely mentioned. But if you stop and consider the implications you will likely come to the same conclusion as many of us already have. An unsecured southern border presents a clear and present danger to all of us and this specific threat has little to do with cheap labor.

After Fire, Barricade, Perry Hall Man Could Face Charges
Charges could be filed against an unidentified man after he is evaluated at a local hospital, police announced.
(UPDATE, 11:45 p.m.)—A man who barricaded himself in a Perry Hall home Saturday evening was taken into police custody, Baltimore County police announced. Police said he would be taken to a local hospital for an evaluation and could later face criminal charges. Fire department personnel first responded at 6:15 p.m. to a call about a fire in the yard outside a home in the 4100 block of Link Avenue in Perry Hall in the Nottingham zip code. The fire was put out, but a man at the property retreated into the house, according to police department spokesman Lt. Robert McCullough. Fire department personnel attempted to talk to the man, at which time they observed firearms. The man barricaded himself in the house and refused to come out, McCullough…

This month we move up the coast to the seaside town where the turf meets the surf. August is the perfect month to spend a weekend in Del Mar as summer is in full swing and the races at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club are underway.
As you contemplate hotels for your staycation in Del Mar, be sure to consider the area's top two resorts — The Grand Del Mar and L'Auberge Del Mar.
The Grand Del Mar boasts San Diego's only Tom Fazio-designed championship golf course, a 21,000-square-foot Renaissance-inspired spa, and the award-winning Addison restaurant. This summer, the resort is offering myriad value-oriented packages to suit any taste.
If a seaside escape is more your style, L'Auberge Del Mar is steps away from the beach, with amenities including two lighted championship tennis courts, swanky cabanas throughout the resort, Spa L'Auberge, and Kitchen 1540 featuring the cuisine of executive chef Paul McCabe.
Don't wait until the evening to get the weekend started — the 70th season of horseracing is in full stride, and this year its popular Friday late-card theme has been changed from Four O'Clock to Three O'Clock Fridays. So don your best turf club attire and place some winning bets. And for a dose of culture, stick around after the last race for a live music concert. Featured August performers include The Airborne Toxic Event on August 7, Common Sense on August 14, Pinback on August 21, and Super Diamond on August 28.
If the band doesn't suit your fancy, migrate to one of the nearby restaurants — Red Tracton's has been a post-track staple for over half a century, The Fish Market's fresh catches and oyster bar have been luring people in since 1981, and Pamplemousse Grille is repeatedly voted Best San Diego Restaurant by Zagat Survey. Also nearby are Blanca Restaurant (featured on this month's cover) and Market Restaurant + Bar. Or you could head back to your hotel for an award-winning meal. L'Auberge features lives music Friday and Saturday nights.
Enjoy a leisurely breakfast in bed or head out for a delectable day-starter at Americana with its newly renovated sidewalk dining area, or the charming Café Secret on Camino Del Mar.
If you have children, enjoy a round of mini-golf at Pelly's, followed by a stop at Freeflight to see the beautiful exotic birds.
If the spa is calling your name, a multitude of options abound. Spa L'Auberge is offering 20 percent off of all facials through August. Consider the SPF: Skin Perfecting Facial, which helps prevent photo-aging while providing up to eight times the skin's natural protection from UV rays.
Or escape for an entire day of rejuvenation at The Spa at The Grand Del Mar. Its Grand Day Spa Retreat package includes a 60-minute Swedish massage and a facial, alfresco lunch at the Relaxation Pool, access to The Spa's fully-equipped fitness center, and more — all for $385.
Other luxurious local spas include Spa Gregorie's, which just opened in Flower Hill Promenade (see page 34 for more info), and Mirabella Mansori on 101 in Solana Beach, which offers weekly specials throughout the summer.
Once you've worked up a healthy appetite, grab a slice at Del Mar Pizza on 15th Street, or enjoy lunch outside at Sbicca Bistro. There's also the sizzling fajita platters at En Fuego, whose roots date back to 1930 when the original restaurant, La Tienda, hosted Del Mar Race Track elites and Hollywood movie stars such as Bing Crosby and Pat O'Brien. At the Del Mar Plaza, Del Mar Rendevous serves up modern Chinese and Asian fusion cuisine.
After dining, shop among the many upscale boutiques housed within Del Mar Plaza and along Camino Del Mar. Art aficionados should head to Susan Street Fine Art Gallery on Cedros Avenue. Its current group exhibition is titled Dog 'n' Pony. Ten artists approach the depiction of dogs and horses to illuminate the social and cultural concerns of their world, often using these animals as a metaphor for the human condition.
While on Cedros, stroll around to check out the many unique boutiques including Cedros Soles, Glow Bungalow, Hot Rock Jewelry, Leaping Lotus, Milk & Honey, Rebecca Norman, and more.
There's no better place for sunset cocktails than atop Del Mar Plaza, but to reach even greater heights, consider a Champagne sunset hot air balloon ride — it's a rush unlike anything else.
You can't visit the city by the sea without sampling some spectacular seafood. With outdoor seating areas and ocean views, you can't go wrong dining al fresco at Poseidon, Jake's Del Mar, Pacifica Del Mar, or Sunset Bar & Grill, a new addition to Del Mar Plaza.
For some nightlife, Arterra's poolside lounge features a live DJ, or catch a show at the Belly Up, one of S.D.'s best music venues.
Champagne brunch at The Brigantine is a must on Sunday morning — no ifs, ands, or buts.
For some physical activity, hike the trails in San Dieguito River Park. If you've opted to stay at The Grand Del Mar, you can also bike the scenic paved trails located next to the resort, or enjoy the more than 37 miles of mountain biking trails located in the adjacent Los Peñasquitos Canyon. Or better yet, explore its scenic terrain and unique landmarks, including a restored Adobe Ranch House originally built in the early 1800s, on a guided 2.5-hour horseback adventure.
For lunch, Pasta Pronto is a hidden gem off Via De La Valle, or refuel at Milton's in Flower Hill Promenade. Treat the kiddos to self-serve frozen yogurt at Del Mar Swirls.
Enjoy Sunday shopping at Flower Hill Promenade among classics like Book Works and Thinker Things (perfect for the kids), The Rare Earth, Fairen Del, Dig, Crimson, Morrison Hotel Gallery, and more.
Or, simply relax at the beach.
For an afternoon snack/early dinner and to stock up on goodies for the week, head to the Cedros Avenue Farmers' Market, which operates from 2-5pm. Its dozens of vendors offer everything from fresh ceviche, homemade tamales, quality produce, and just-baked bread to one-of-a-kind jewelry, artwork, and unique gifts. MIA STEFANKO & RINA VAN ORDEN

I`m sorry for this horrible question. I don' t know how to name the area where the clipboard is located. I have made a screenshot to explain.
my problem: I wan't a transparent area. Does anybody know where I can change this? I have customized the "Fawn" theme and now the area has the same color as my changed Fawn theme. I thing it is a kind of image?
right clicking on it and then choosing
"panel settings"
gives you a few options, transparency being one of them. you can even tint is as far as i know.
hope that helps.
@ schanall : the area you're talking about is usually called the system tray.
Oh I'm sorry, I forgot to mention that I'm using the "lite" edition of #!.
Right klicking doesn't work for me
But thank you both for your answers. I will try to colorize the picutres in the theme, step by step. One of them must be the solution..
Which version are you using? 8.10.02 or 8.10.01 RC?
Note: ** Please read before posting **
BTW if you wish to contact me, send me an e-mail instead of a PM.
It looks like you are using tint2 and trayer. Try logging out and back in again. This can clear that problem in trayer after a theme change. If not maybe a change to lxpanel like the main edition uses would be what you need.
Sometimes you can force the systray to redraw. I usually hit F11 in Firefox to make it go fullscreen for a second.
Your autostart.sh should have the following line in it, or something similar:
(sleep 2s && trayer --align right --edge top --transparent true --alpha 255 --tint 0x000000 --widthtype request --height 24 --expand true --margin 66) &
The 'transparency', 'alpha' and maybe 'tint' entries being the significant ones here.
Should sort you.
That look like the age old GTK issue, the tray icons are rendered using the GTK rules (or QT) which will pull in the rules set in the theme for panel display. Lxpanel ignores these settings and you end up with odd blotches like that.
What is your GTK theme? Usually this can be fixed by editing out a few lines of it.
Just spotted you mentioned Fawn,
Edit ~/.themes/Fawn/gtk2.0/panel.rc, and comment out any lines that reference panel-bg.png
Thank you all for your help!
I gave up yesterday and installed the original FWAN - Theme. Now it works again.
Some day I will try it again, but I'm too busy now...Sorry, and thanks for help!
Edit: OH I didn't see Nik's "edit". I will try this! I think this is the picture I was looking for...
Thanks. Nik's answer got it!

"Beautiful night, isn't it?" Isaac Rider asked, unaware that the same words were being spoken in some other part of the city. But, unlike the other person, he was, in fact, talking to someone.
I guess, if you're into that kind of thing, Vincent replied, his words echoing inside of Isaac's head.
Isaac stands semi-alone on the roof of a building, his grey eyes running over the moon-washed city, the wind blowing through his shoulder-length black hair and ruffling the long, tattered overcoat he wears. All his life he's lived in this city, running across the rooftops, just him and the unwelcome roommate in his skull. As far back as he can remember, he's never had anyone to watch out for him, save for a few people like himself. Most of the time, back when he was a little kid, they would be use him to get a little extra money out of passersby, throwing him to the side once they believed they've got all they could out of him. Now, he just looks at those memories as part of what made him, and Vincent, into what they are today.
His thoughts are interrupted by Vincent, who says, Isaac, something's going on down there.
Isaac takes his eyes off of the cityscape to see a girl, who looked right around his age, chase after a dog, which disappears down a dark alleyway. The girl stops outside of the alley, seems to hesitate, then walks in with her hands in her pockets. "What's she doing out here at this hour?" Isaac wonders aloud.
Deciding to check it out, Isaac jumps down from the rooftop. Just as he's about to hit the ground, a faint glow radiates from underneath the right sleeve of his coat. Less than a second later, a large, sloped chunk of metal soundlessly comes up from the ground. Isaac lands on it and slides down, breaking his fall. As soon as his feet hit the ground and he starts walking toward where the girl disappeared, the iron ramp dissolves back into the ground, leaving no trace of it being there.

The authors, Barbara Kupfer, Kathy Foley-Bolch, and Michelle Fallon Kasouf, all have had ostomy surgery. Doctor W. Brain Sweeney was formerly Chief of Colo-Rectal Surgery at the University of Massachusetts Hospital in Worcester, Massachusetts. He now practices in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and teaches at the University of Minnesota. They wrote this pocket-sized reference guide for the person who has an ostomy and wishes to travel.
The guide covers an enormous range of useful information and details every issue that may arise when traveling with an ostomy, such as what to bring, dietary considerations, ways of travel, toileting, emergency situations, and tips for physically challenged people. At the end of the book, six comprehensive appendices list worldwide resources, international organizations, suppliers, and even key words and phases translated into eleven languages.
This book is a very clear and useful guide for any ostomy patient. It equips the ostomy patient with an excellent map to help them on their joyful trip. All proceeds go to ostomy charities.

March For Change(http://www.marchforchange.org} a bi-partisan, grassroots effort supporting the legislative agenda of Connecticut Against Gun Violence,a Connecticut based non-profit organization dedicated to making Connecticut communities, families, and children safe from gun violence through a common sense approach to public education and legislative advocacy, announced today the release of a robust public service campaign in support of the February 14th MARCH FOR CHANGE in Hartford, CT demanding safer, rational gun laws. Produced by Johnny Boston, Christine Fulton and Melissa Chesman of Raw Media Network, a production company with offices in New York and Weston, CT, these short films and 30- and 60-second spots give voice to the kids of Connecticut, who are struggling to come to terms with the reality of gun violence in our communities.
"I'm marching on February 14th to demand a better future for my children. I wanted our public service campaign to project the possibility for change and the hope for a safer future. Everyone involved in the project has school-aged children, all of whom are also trying to make sense of the tragedy in nearby Newtown; these kids are talking amongst themselves and questioning grown ups about gun violence in our country. We decided to invite 60 kids into the conversation and immediately the PSA took shape," said Johnny Boston, the campaign's producer and director.
"We had a limited amount of time to finish the PSA," said producer Christine Fulton. "Usually when there is an open call, people say they will participate, but there are always a lot of 'no-shows.' For this project, not only did everyone show, they brought other people's kids and invited entire other families, as well; it made for a tighter schedule and longer shoot, but the passion people feel is palpable and the response inspiring."
Over 60 children from Fairfield County shared their feelings about the tragedy in Newtown and their hopes and dreams for the future. Originally two 30- and 60-seconds spot were produced, however Raw Media Network realized these wouldn't be enough o honor the thoughtful voices of the children. Subsequently, two longer versions of the PSA were also created, including CONNECTICUT KIDS RESPOND, which made its World Premiere at the special screening of "Living for 32" at the Christ & Holy Trinity Church in Westport on January 27th. Actor Frank Whaley provided the resonant voiceover in the six minute short film.
All of the PSAs can currently be seen on Raw Media Network's YouTube channel or on their FB page:

Lawmakers from the Inter-Parliamentary Union visit a progressive school in Lombok, Indonesia during a trip to survey UNICEF's projects on the island. |
By Suzanna Dayne
LOMBOK, Indonesia, 15 May 2007 – More than a dozen lawmakers from around the world took time out from the recent Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) Assembly held in Bali to take a firsthand look at UNICEF projects on neighbouring Lombok Island.
The first stop for the lawmakers was a village health clinic where they saw how mothers are informed about basic nutrition and health care, and how infants and young children receive regular check-ups.
"We need to ensure every child has access to free medical services in order to give them the start they deserve in life," said Australian MP Kay Hull, one of the visiting legislators. "All vaccinations and immunizations should be free and we should encourage reproductive health care for mothers and families, including fathers."
Protecting future generations
The lawmakers also saw pregnant women receiving care at a local maternity clinic and, as an added surprise, a woman who had given birth just an hour before their arrival.
"I want to make sure that this little girl's rights are protected, and that means that all children have access to proper health care," said Indonesian MP Tuti Loekman. "One of my particular concerns is female circumcision, which is still practiced in some parts of the country. This practice is against human rights, and parents need to be aware of this."

Recognizing the critical need to protect growing children from violence, abuse and exploitation, the lawmakers went on to visit a facility where the local child protection service – known as LPA – is trying to do just that by involving young people themselves.
Support for victims of violence
"This is a great facility," said Japanese MP Miho Takai. "It's wonderful to see children volunteer, to see them express what they want and learn to solve problems. I would like to bring this idea back with me to Japan."
LPA also supports victims of violence. For example, the staff is currently working to bring to justice a teacher who reportedly raped an eight-year-old girl. The lawmakers visited police headquarters, where victims of child abuse, violence and exploitation are served by officers specifically trained to deal with such incidents.
"We must realize that violence and sexual exploitation are pervasive problems," said Canadian MP Sue Barnes. "We have to acknowledge that we cannot solve these problems alone and we need organizations like UNICEF who are on the ground. We all have a role."
Benefits of child-friendly schools
Of course, making children aware of the dangers of abuse and violence can protect them from ever becoming victims. This issue is being addressed at an innovative elementary school in Lombok, where children learn about their rights in an open environment. Here, teachers are also trained to spot potential victims in their own classrooms.
This 'child-friendly' approach, developed by UNICEF, has made an impact in Indonesia and was praised by the lawmakers.
"This is an impressive approach, so much more than rote learning. It's interactive, the children do their work and share. They can ask questions and even criticize things," noted Egyptian MP Syada Elharmy Griess.
Many of the parliamentarians said they were inspired by the Lombok visit. One said it was "a wake-up call," and another concluded that while good child protection laws are vital, they need to be properly implemented and supported – including at the community level .
"By taking this opportunity to visit what UNICEF does, these MPs will get to know the reality of child protection issues," said UNICEF Deputy Executive Director Toshiyuki Niwa. "It is an excellent way to develop a good understanding within the global community at large."

Tags: book, cinderella, happy, reading
My favorite was Over In The Meadow. I used to sit on my grandma's lap and she'd read it to me over and over again. She recently gave me that book and now I read it to my children. It is a great memory. Mandi
I remember one called 'Hiding'. I don't know who by I just remember it was a very tatty, well loved book that my dad always read to me and I adored it.
"Hiding in the basket, hiding in the.." that was how it went :)

Scabiosa Flower Seeds |
Scabiosa Flower Seeds are more commonly known under the name Pincushion Flowers, the flower heads comprised of a myriad of small blossoms, all of which have wispy stamens poking out, making the entire flower head resemble a pincushion. The effect is even more pronounced as the flowers dry on the stalk and go to seed, the seeds themselves looking like miniature shuttlecocks, or badminton birdies. Scabiosa, pronounced skab-ee-OH-suh, is also miscalled scabosia. There are both annual and perennial forms, the location, method and timing of the planting determining whether or not your Pincushion Flowers will grow and flower, and where you live determining your planting of annual or perennial. Some scabiosa can grow up to 4-feet in height, so be aware of the cultivar you are growing and plan accordingly. Native to the fynbos, or fine bush, of South Africa, some forms of Scabiosa grow wild in acidic, nutrient-poor soil and in a climate with cold wet winters and hot dry summers. Much feeding is not a necessity, but if the pH of your soil is highly alkaline, it should probably be amended with aluminum sulfate or gypsum to increase the acidity, though this can be a slow process. While amending your soil and until the pH has undergone the required changes, try a half-strength feeding with Espoma® Holly-tone® on a regular schedule. An organic plant food, this is the ideal nutrition for acid-loving plants. Each order of our fresh Scabiosa seeds is filled by hand, put into a resealable plastic bag and then placed into a labeled seed packet. It is our goal to provide our customers the best in freshness and quality. |

Midfield magic needed
4 Sep 2012
RYAN VREDE writes the Springboks' midfield pair of Frans Steyn and Jean de Villiers are far more creative than what they've shown and need to be encouraged to explore that dimension of their play.
I've lamented the Springboks' pack's impotency extensively, and, in a game of cause and effect, their struggles are at the root of the broader impotency of the backline.
Over the course of the last five Tests there have been encouraging periods where the heavies have dominated and the backline has buzzed, their early blitz against England at Ellis Park the prime example of this. However, they have lacked consistency and it has reflected in a string of unconvincing performances. Notable in that period has been the muted impact of their midfield pair.
The duo seldom see the ball when the Springboks are in their own territory, the directive being to punt and chase for fear of committing errors in their half and gifting the opposition points. This is understandable given the small margins in Test rugby among the elite sides. However, when further upfield, it is deeply frustrating to see Steyn being reduced largely to a battering ram, whose primary function is to generate go-forward at the gainline. He has had limited success in doing so and will struggle to impose himself in the manner the coaching staff hope against the organised and physical All Blacks and (to a lesser extent) Wallabies.
Steyn's creative ability is well known and was first exhibited as a young buck in the Springboks' midfield at the 2007 World Cup. His running lines were excellent and his distribution – short and long – was incisive and created opportunities for his outside backs. I'd like to see Steyn encouraged to rediscover this dimension of his play (in the right field positions) because he has the skills set to be more than he is being utilised as at present.
De Villiers has found adapting to the attacking demands of a Test outside centre difficult. His running lines and timing of those runs are fractionally off and in Test rugby those fractions are the difference between breaking the line and being stopped. He certainly possesses the attacking flair to be effective in the position, but I am concerned that age has depleted the turn of pace he used to have to get him through holes in the defensive line.
De Villiers, however, remains a fine player who I believe will settle into the position and be a competent option. Comparisons with Jaque Fourie are unfair and those who peddle those comparisons fail to appreciate that Fourie was among the best in the position in the game. De Villiers is unlikely to retain the captaincy or No 13 shirt if, as expected, Fourie returns to the Test fold in 2013. Until then, he must explore different dimensions – tackle offloads for example – of his attacking game within the framework of the game plan.
The Springboks' pack are central to their success and against the weakest Wallabies pack in recent years, they must create the platform for Steyn and De Villiers to be the game breakers they have the capacity to be.

4 Sep 2012, 19:54 pmSpot on mate – his hands were even tied on appointing his support team (assistant coaches) given most were tied up in contracts already.
Thing about our national team (and coach) is we seem to put them at a massive disadvantage from the word go.
Structures don't really support them, timing is always rather **** and then you have clowns calling one of them quotas the day he got appointed!
I really don't know how anyone in their right mind would actually take that job…
Meyer had two weeks outside of preparing for a test with his squad, and factor injuries into this whole scheme not to mention **** tired players from an absurd Super Rugby schedule and you get some idea of how ridiculous this job is.
I support Meyer 100%, like I did PDV and White. Difference – Meyer has the pedigree to break the sick cycle of Bok coaches in SA Rugby where we might just all give him the tools to do a job properly.
4 Sep 2012, 19:55 pmSkop, provide an alternative then.
If Heyneke had taken over from Jake White – like he was supposed to – Bok rugby might be in an even better space right now.
But alas: could've, should've, didn't.
4 Sep 2012, 19:55 pm@fitz1ella-300: Did you respect him when he was at the Bulls?
4 Sep 2012, 20:01 pmI think that he also able to quickly learn from his mistakes by not picking a fetcher like Brussow and then having to fetch one playing in the UK.
His next biggest problem is to sort out 9 and 10 because the combo's there are just not working at test level. I expect Morne Steyn to start on Sat before Goosen gets 20 hopefully 30 minutes out there.
4 Sep 2012, 20:02 pmYup, it is not that you make mistakes, it is how fast you learn from them at this level.
Meyer will get it right.
4 Sep 2012, 20:07 pm@I am a stormer-302: He's an outright coward clutching at straws he should have gotten Jakes team because that was the team he wanted .. he got F'ALL clue about building a team.. he got ZERO idea about how to build a comprehensive high energy go forward platform.. He been LAMENTING and b'tching and moaning that he didn't get FdP or Matfield while he goes about stuffing up with DISASTROUS selections from word go…
This dude needs HUGE f'ng cotton wool structures padding him up left right and center.. He should have gotten the WC 2007 team because then he wouldn't have to do ANY thinking.. right now he is so out of his tree and his league he is panicking for mere survival and he's only just begun year one..
I can't see him make it past cut off.. his got a couple measly threads of hope hanging by a ball hair if JdV and couple strong players like Alberts, F. Steyn can save his arse then he might just avoid the guillotine.. somehow I simply can't see it…
the thing is Pdv should have gotten this team to build and make hay with, not that set in its ways bunch of JW robotic stooges who fck'd his hopes to hell already within year one.. Meyer should have gotten JW's team and PdV should have gotten this one, cause this dude got ZERO clue about building off a first base bat.. he needs YEARS of structures and slow painstaking trial and error before he gonna get his thinking straight.
4 Sep 2012, 20:16 pmThese Springbok coaches are outright morons.. they got the biggest ego's under the sun and yet can't see half an inch beyond their pitifully self aggrandized noses..
JW exactly the same.. he was so far gone if Jones wouldn't have saved his forlorn fckup of an ego gone belly up he would have imploded under the sheer pressure of it…
PdV no different except he was possibly far more capable to roll with the punches than this dude who is a frantic ball of wound up stress waiting to explode .. they think the goddamn sun itself oozes out of their highfalutin arses and yet back at the coal face they can't even recognize which player to play WHERE..!!!
4 Sep 2012, 20:27 pmAny event, I am off folks – another time.

4 Sep 2012, 20:32 pm@KeurboomPark-309: now that's a little bit of 'thinking' for you.. but don't hold out any great hopes that Heyneke ever gonna stretch any envelope THAT far off the blinker radar…
4 Sep 2012, 20:33 pmHallo Boom,
Hoe gaan dit?
4 Sep 2012, 20:35 pmGo back in history. Mallett inherited Carel du plessis's team and went on a winning trot.
White used all Straueli's players and won a tri-nations in his first year and a WC 3 years later.
And Pdiv just inherited the core of Jake's team and introduced some along the way.
By building a team, you're able to make it your own. By creating the combo's that work and it might not always be the provincial combo's that might click at international level. HM has inherited a team that went through mass retirements, guys off to greener pastures etc. By doing it his way he can instil his own way of doing things.
The guy is going to make mistakes. He said so himself. That doesn't mean we must throw him under the bus after being in charge for 5 tests.
Have a heart.
4 Sep 2012, 20:35 pmthey kakking their broeks big time up in Tswane.. if this Bok team don't pull the sack cloth and ashes out the fire on Saturday I somehow dunno if HM gonna have the wherewithal to even get up and look in the mirror Sunday..
He needs a miracle and I betcha he is bidding for one daily… hope somebody up there got ears to hear his plea bargain
4 Sep 2012, 20:40 pmAll coaches lose, Deans have been hanging by his ball hairs, to use your term, for the last four years
Carel's team lost, they fired him just as the team was on the verge of clicking and Mallet(Saint Nick in Cape Town) took over and used the same team to earn his well earned reputation
4 Sep 2012, 20:43 pm> they kakking their broeks big time up in Tswane..
They've been kakking their broeks in Brokeback since they've won the Conference Cup and the Sharks dumped them out of the S15 till now
Maybe it's someone else's turn?
4 Sep 2012, 21:02 pmI think the disappointing thing for me is that incoming coaches see the performances of their predecessors, the mistakes etc and then come in with more ridiculous ideas.
I mean here is Heyneke – a man well respected as a rugby man with a solid track record – and within weeks start talking about 'direct rugby' which he must have seen did not work.
It did not work for Jake, it did not work when VM and FdP forced it unto the team so why will it work now all of a sudden? Why not say that he wants to build on what PdV started? But no, he needs to reinvent the wheel, the need to be a saviour…
Another puzzling thing is that whenever the Bulls had success it was either Heyneke's vision, foresight or foundation that were singled out as the difference. Guys like Frans Ludeke and Slaptjips must be wondering what they need to do to get this quasi-messiah like status that some seem to enjoy.
The reality was that Habs scored in the 83 rd minute to win the S12 and Frans' team destroyed the Chiefs here at Loftus. You have to wonder what is the difference. Is it perhaps Heyneke is more outspoken about his desire to the Afrikaner take up his rightful place in SA rugby? What does he say at the braai that is so compelling that resonates so powerfully with these boys?
4 Sep 2012, 21:25 pmHave not been on here for a few days, but well done to the WP for an excellent performance in thumping the Bulls, atlast they realised you can pass and run with the ball. was good to see.
And glad my team showed some guts to fight back,
And congrats to Kwas for Klapping the lions
4 Sep 2012, 21:26 pmhahahaha I see the Pooper volcano nearly erupted today! a blow top is imminent! And then he will be forced to take another leave of absence to get his head right…. you can see it happening, he's getting far too obsessed with SA again, spending all of his time on here, what a c.rap life our little kiwicullartinsydney must have! I will sit back and watch the prick break down AGAIN with some delight!
4 Sep 2012, 21:28 pm@KeurboomPark-309:
That was my selection on Sunday along with another blogger, Daniel, Anton Bressler and Elstadt on the bench
Better even we said, Jacques Cronje at 8, Flo and Coetzee flanks, Albert at 5, Vermeulen, Daniel and Bressler off the bench.
That scenario would be possible only if HM is worried for his job, until then it will be Morne Styen, Potgieter. Bekker, Kirchner, Mvovo, Habana,
The lot -
4 Sep 2012, 22:42 pmJa, I like Bressler. No nonsense man. Give the Aussies a nice taai klap or two. Jaque Cronje is solid, but I never rated him as a test play. Daniel is dynamin and intelligent. Can change a game. Would bring him on for Duane after 50. Habanero at 13. JdV on the wing. Habs is better put in the thick ovvit.
4 Sep 2012, 23:13 pm@Sheriff-317: jy like daai vals noot.
4 Sep 2012, 23:14 pm@fitz1ella-314: Nah. Just the Springbok on the backlash, no miracle needed.
4 Sep 2012, 23:31 pm@victoriabok-312:
It's lekker here in Koeberg. Hoe gaan dit met jou, Vik? -
4 Sep 2012, 23:32 pmSo the Bok team is to be announced as follows:

2 TBC/pending injury news
1 Beast -
4 Sep 2012, 23:35 pm@Humphrey-325: @<a href="#comment-
Wat rook jy, Humpty? Kirchner?
4 Sep 2012, 23:43 pm@KeurboomPark-326: dont shoot the messenger, that is Meyer's team for this weekend, the team that has been training this week. Bekker is to be dropped from the 22.
4 Sep 2012, 23:48 pmKeo why do you guys bring up the English tour? Its like so last year, there's no point mentioning it any more. All i recall in my distant memory is a poor performance in genral and last week we went lower than that "team of individuals".
Sweep that dirt thats under the carpet Keo please and into the dust pan and be done with it?Poor Franscois Steyn, how much more of this crapping Bok rugby he has to indure. With His tallent then infestered in French skill, can only mean he must fall asleep when playing for the Boring, One Dimentional, predictable Bok rugby. He is probably wishing he could change after the WC 2011 to another international team, even Argentina,…. anybody…, because who is more predictable than the Boks.– poor chap!
Because of the size of a backline, we should never fear unleashing the dragon. At times the dragon has destroyed any team on the planet. What the hell is wrong with SA Rugby coaches? When last have we had a real backline coach and a game plan that suports it. Argentine, we all can say they are better than xyz, but one must look at the ranking 8th verse 3rd. There is a huge gap between 3rd and 4th, and 8th jeez, this gap is even bigger. Our backline was non existant against a team ranked 8th. Thats really poor considering our boys are experienced. 7′s rugby, maybe they should all spend time there, It would do them wonders. We need Margret Thatcher in the coaching role, at least she has brains and BALLS !!
Big, Silver, you-betcha, Go-nadies…! -
4 Sep 2012, 23:54 pmSorry. I would have played Lambie at 15.
5 Sep 2012, 00:01 am@KeurboomPark-329: i woulod have played Lambie at 10. Anyone is better than M Steyn.
5 Sep 2012, 00:02 amAbsolutely. Franky at 15. Lambie at 10.
5 Sep 2012, 01:29 amJean to 12 and Steyn to 15. His boot is necessary to keep teams pinneed back in their own half.
5 Sep 2012, 03:53 am@PissAnt-305: Could not agree more – HM will learn, and get it right.
There is a kind of person that has no issues acknowledging shortcomings, with a massive appetite to constantly learn and get better. As a result humble as hell too. Will always be a success in the long run. -
5 Sep 2012, 04:53 amCareful your slip is showing!
Maybe in your household it is fine to talk that way to a woman in the 'spirit' of returning serve, but do us all a favour and keep your filthy habits to yourself.
5 Sep 2012, 04:57 amVery good points PA, end of the day he is still unbeaten as Bok coach albeit not reaching the lofty and unreasonable hights some expected of the Boks.
5 Sep 2012, 05:12 amSlart Meyer has a huge task Bokke fans rightfully want him to emulate Henry, win 85% of the time and win every trophy big ask in his first year, if he loses a couple this year coupled with the draws already I doubt he'll get 85% over his 4 year tenure

Make no mistake, the Springboks do well in spite of all the external factors haunting them, least of all poor coaching. Imagine for one moment the political interference the Boks had to endure over years and the impact it will have on the All Blacks if it happened with them?
We can have a dig at one another, point and laugh but at the end of the day it is never easy for them or the Bok coach.
5 Sep 2012, 05:34 amYip tough job being Bokke coach at least in SA 75% of the population supports the round ball in NZ when it goes wrong its a national disaster.
5 Sep 2012, 05:52 amTrue, reading certain posts on keo from some lunatics you would think otherwise though.
5 Sep 2012, 06:18 amFollowing the same trend again. Now they want to drop Andries Bekker – sure, he was not on par in Mendoza. I'm sure we heard the exact same words for a few more players over a few more weeks than only Mendoza. Keegan Daniel is another example. Why only have a handpicked few players to be protected by pathetic senior management?
To bring in J Kruger is not a bad call, but to keep Flip van der Merwe is only increasing the chances of more yellow cards.
Big ball carriers – just another vision that will fail. Jacques Potgieter is everything except a ball carrier, he hardly ever gaines any advantage and has the lowest "ball steals" during the whole Super 15 (for the time he played) and the test thus far. No ball skill – to dive into a ruck without arms doesn't warrant a Springbok jersey.
Sad to say, but we just never learn. -
5 Sep 2012, 07:02 am@Blokkies-17: That is a very intersting observation abou why skills are larnt as opposed to reliance on size o penetrate and subdue. Perhaps a move to weight class rugby will be good for SA, and teach them skill sets that they would not otherwise learn?
It would also make mum's a bit less nervous about their precious laaitie being run over by a 200 pound gorilla with a full beard in standard four…

5 Sep 2012, 11:22 amIf the Boks cannot catch and pass a ball by now what the hell are they doing on a rugby field never mind in the national team?
HM needs players with brains as well as Brawn on the field but more importantly he needs a captain who can change a game plan when he sees the one they are using in not working.This will only happen if your captain has the brains and courage to actually do that but I am afraid that the capt will not.
Remove the fear of doing something wrong and let them do there thing but also be responsible for their decisions.In the world of the Boks they spend more time on their electronic devices than on planning their way to WIN a game.I would bet that the coaches this week have all been planning for DEFENSE instead of attack.
Just look at the flyhalf and that will tell the Aussies all they need to know about what rugby we will be playing.
What is the point of taking a Lambie and Goosen if you intend to bring them on later to play catch up instead of starting them and attacking the Aussies from the word go?Wake up Boks Management(Maybe there is no brains amongst them?)

There are multiple ways to obtain these Dye Modules, through the Cartel Market, Artifice crafting, or as reputation rewards.
