District Attorney Emily Redman thought she was simply the guest speaker at a routine meal and meeting of the Freemason's Durant Lodge No. 45 on Thursday.
As it turns out, she was the guest of honor. The group presented Redman its Community Builder Award, one of the highest honors bestowed upon non-Masons.
Durant Lodge No. 45 A.F. & A.M. leaders said Redman's "outstanding and dedicated service to Bryan County" helped them make the decision to select her for the award. Redman serves Bryan, Coal and Atoka counties as the top prosecutor for Oklahoma's District 19.
Before the presentation, Redman explained the fine points of the District Attorney's office, its duties and role in county and courtroom affairs. Several members of Redman's staff were present for the dinner, speech and presentation.
"District attorneys have a lot of power," she said, emphasizing that prosecutors must respect that power. "When you decide to accuse (someone) of committing a crime, that's a big deal."
She explained the concept behind Drug Court, which she described as an "intense supervision program, just shy of the penitentiary" for "serious offenders on the brink of prison."
Redman also told the Durant Freemasons about several aspects of the DA's office, including offender supervision, Drug Task Force, prevention of domestic violence and sexual assault, "Project Safe Neighborhood," the ABC House and the "Coordinated Community response Team."
She also told of little-known aspects of the job, such as the prosecutor's role in providing legal advice for county officials. Redman also said her office files approximately 2,000 cases per year in Bryan County alone.

Burkhead may return for Minnesota game
Right now, Bo and the Huskers focus on the Golden Gophers of Minnesota hoping to take one more step toward the Big Ten Legends Division Championship.
After missing almost all of the last four games and five of ten this season, running back Rex Burkhead may be back to play against the Golden Gophers Saturday afternoon at Memorial Stadium. It's been a tough process recovering from that knee injury Rex has suffered three different times in three different games. He's a guy that wanted to return to the lineup much sooner, but knew he just wasn't healthy enough. Rex is currently fifth all time in Husker history with 3059 career rushing yards. Rex needs 99 more yards to pass Calvin Jones into 4th place on the all time list and had he been healthy this season he likely could have challenged Eric Crouch for 3rd place on the all time list, With a monster year he even could have caught Ahman Green for 2nd place. Ahman had 3880 career yards at Nebraska while former Heisman winner Mike Rozier's total of 4780 is by far the most rushing yards in Husker history. |

"Butch catches a break"
Even though Butch is human, he tries so hard to be part of the Brotherhood.
Yes and he is great with voices and personalities.
When Butch learns he might have a chance to be turned into a vampire, if he goes through regression of past lives.
I really enjoyed Butch's story and i don't think it's over yet. The story may continue in another book. J R Ward always touches on different things going on with other character in each book and I really enjoy that.
"Asking for refund"
I'm sure the stories are really good, however this narrator, and who ever is editing the recording makes the listen horrid. Elizabeth Meadows, not only can not read, she is too breathy, and has not prepared for the read at all. She reads like it's the first time she's reading the material. I had gotten two other books that she narrates.....SAME THING. If you want to really be annoyed try listening to anything read by Elizabeth Meadows.
I will make sure I check who's narration before I purchase ever again. I couldn't rate the stories because the narration was that disgusting.
"If you enjoy historical novels then go for it"
I enjoy all historical novels. Some are written better than others and give more information. This gave a brief history of the Provencal Sisters who did indeed rule Europe. Marguerite married Louis IX, Elenor married Henry III, Beatrice became queen consort of Sicily, Sanchia became queen of the Romans. We are talking 12th century Europe. You can tell that these young ladies, because they were very young when they married, 12 and 13. Were very lucky to be brought up by rich and intelligent parents. They were taught to read, and understand finance. These young girls went on to shape the world of the the 12th century. It is a very brief but enjoyable story.
I have heard Josephine Bailey before and was always please with her narrations.
This book is too short to really go into each young woman's life. In the court's they were brought up in and how they learned to survive on their wits and charm. They were all supposed to be amazing beauties. (I'm sure that helped) When you start out as a 13 year old beautiful queen, by the time you are 25, you have learned much to survive, and use your charms to aid your king and country. I would love to read (or listen to a book about each one of these woman)
"Another Anthology by RKB"
What I find in many anthology's put together by the same person, is that there will be many stories that are the same. In this collection I'm happy to say there was only one story I've heard before, and it was easy to just skip over. I think that RKB always finds the most erotic, kinky, sensual, sexy and hot stories. I'm just glad that it had a lot of new stories to make it an interesting listen.
Surrender, and Please Sir also by RKB.
I think that Hooper Tillie did a fine job with all the voices emotions and character. I never heard her before but I was impressed.
I enjoy these types of erotic stories, and when they are well written and narrated it makes it that much more enjoyable. When you have an anthology of any where between 20 or 60 stories in some books, you're not going to love every one. However in this anthology I enjoyed about 92% That's saying a lot.
If you enjoy kinky role, play. If your not offended by women who choose to surrender completely, even though they are in fact strong individuals. If you understand the act of being submissive whether your a male or a female is really just a way of getting away from your daily routine of being in charge, especially when you are a boss, or have a lot of responsibilities. When you don't have to think or make the decision it's like a vacation. Many Tops say you can never really be a "TOP" unless you have "Bottomed" at least once. It's true, and although it is not for every one, just like skydiving, or deep sea fishing. If you've every had the thrill of having a marlin on the end of your rod and trying to land it, sometimes it takes hours. The thrill if you land it is wild, but even if you don't that struggle was an Adrenalin Rush! If you can understand that then the rest is simple. Oh and BTW that's why there are over 1000 cable channels, something for everyone.
"Erotic, tale beautifully worded and told"
I was so surprised at this story the wording and discriptions of places and things happening. I didn't want to stop listening. This English woman who becomes a slave do to being in the worong place. Tells the story in first person. As time goes by she finds that she enjoys being a a slave and being beaten. She loves having sex with the sheik no matter how he treats her. They call her Chengi. She talks about what her life was like in England. and she sees how poor and third world people live and realize how spoiled she is. She love being disiplaned. This story is all in first person, you see how her feeling change about circumstances and she only wants to spend her life with the sheik
No but I will look for her because I truly enjoyed her narration.
When Chengi realized how much she enjoys pain and being used as a sex slave.
The discriptions of cities, jungles, the heat of the desart, the pain of being wipped are just done with such passion you actually feel what this woman is going through. I reall will get another book by Chole Thurlow.She really has a way with expressing emotions and feelings.
"Enjoyed this passionate romantic story"
Yes it had some real feelings and issues to deal with besides, love, and passion. Dealing with self image, and loss. How one deals with things under pressure>
When Lilly learns that she is more than what she thinks she is. When she understands how the people who love her see her.
I think they did the emotions and voices very well
Sweet romantic and passionate story with learning experience I enjoyed .
"So many authors to turn trilogy to endless series"
I have started several books that were supposed to be TRILOGIES. It seems that the authors see that there is so much interest in the stories they turn them into on going series ie "Wheel of Time" 16 LONG BOOKS. If you say it's going to be 3 books keep it that way, even if you have to make it a little longer. Sylvia Day writes really hot passionate pros. But she should have ended the series and if she wanted to bring back the characters in another book, which I've seen done, I'm sure it would have been really hot and awesome. What she did to her fans her was bate and switch......NOT NICE
She writes great, but she shouldn't do what she did in saying it's a trilogy, then make the third book end like you know there will be another book to tie things up. Who knows if that will be the end of it.....
Sylvia Day is a really good writer of sexual erotica, but what she did to her fans with this book was really cruel. If it would have been known to be an on going series from the start, people may not have been so up set. So many writers do this now. Makes you not want to start a trilogy or series.
"This series keeps surprising me"
It seems Faith Hunter knows how to keep the reader (listener) on the edge. This is the fifth book in the series and I've enjoyed every one so far. Each a bit different, but getting better.
In some ways "Beast"......but Jane of course. Her inter action with Leo, sometimes is a hoot. .
Khristine Hvam is a wonderful narrator, and gets the southern LA and French quarter accents really good. When you have an excellent narrator, it makes a book that much better. I have read books and then listened to on audible. I usually enjoy the audible versions more
"Not as good as Beautiful Bastard but"
It was ok and had some interesting story line to make you want to follow what happens I thing Beautiful Bastard was much better, but in this book the characters from that book are also in this one so there is carry over.
"Love Molly Harper, and Ronconi"
I've listened to every audio book from Molly Harper narrated by Amanda Ronconi that is available on Audible. Every one is laugh out loud funny, with a great story line attached as well
Brought new characters into the Hollow, and sill had the same ones interact with the new ones made for very interesting and funny story, and always a mystery too.
I never heard Amanda Ronconi do an Irish accent, and it was a little weird for me. but still liked her emotions and handling of characters.
When she finds out Jed's true nature........it really is kind of funny.
I hope that Molly Harper keeps writing about HMH. Whether about Jane or the new characters you can't go wrong with Molly Harper and Amanda Ronconi narrating.
"Very well done lesbian erotica"
Both Meagan and Ashley. Even though Meagan is main character, her sister Ashley is the reason this story exists. It keeps you going I think until about the last 5 or 6 chapters I kind of figured it out but it was still a good story. Suspense and puts a new spin on screwed up family dynamics.
Alexandria Wilde did a great job with narration emoticons and individual voices perfect.
Yes because you wanted to know what the heck was going on.
Hope to read more by Diane Anderson Minchell

Function |
Injection moulding machines are used for the production of parts in large quantities from thermoplastic materials. The injection units of such machines draws the plastic into the heated plastifying unit by means of a screw feed. The screw feed moves back in a linear direction from the tool. This is the metering stage. |
In the injection stage, the plastifying unit moves rapidly toward the tool and presses the plastic into the mould. Both the rotation of the screw feed and the linear movement of the injection unit are hydraulically driven. The screw feed is arranged beneath the central axis. The linear bearings must be insensitive to heat and vibration and must also have high basic static and dynamic load ratings. |

Lunch in Volendam

We had a quick, light (ok, maybe not so light) lunch of fries with mayo. I have eaten a lot of fries in my 44 years and the Dutch know how to make great ones. Since they are so popular in the Netherlands I got to eat them fairly often during my stay and I never had a bad batch of fries. The mayo was always really creamy and oh so tasty with them.

The way people from the Southern US say; "great" or "fantastic". Mostly the male portion of the population. Most frequently used when a positive accomplishment has taken place. This is not necessarily something they have achieved personally though. 1. What someone says just before they lose the democratic nomination for president. BOO-YAH!
2. What Hillary Clinton has never felt enough emotion to say out loud. 3. What we all hope she will say, and pray #1 is true, so we don't have to live with #2. Other Use Examples: It can also be used when a foe or enemy has been vanquished in some way. At a sporting event when the opposing team does poorly. When the neighbors beagle stops howling. When your second wife leaves you but doesn't take all your stuff. |

Dear forum staff,Why don't you rein in the complaints of trolling every time someone posts a dissenting opinion or has a complaint, informed or not, about Windows Phone? It just makes this entire forum look like a bunch of spoilt children that can't discuss something without fear of accepting a point of view contrary to their own. I'm not saying stop people from complaining, or even for people to disagree and reaffirm their enjoyment of WP, but most of what I have seen clearly isn't trolling. I don't own a WP yet, so I hope my feedback has at least a little stock. I'd like to use this forum in the future and participate in discussion without this nonsense though.EDIT: This sounds a bit like an attack on the staff. Its not, but this is a situation where I can hardly read one thread without seeing this. Just a reminder link to the rule about "calling someone a troll is a form of trolling" would help a lot.

Well, you've got to give the forum staff a bit of a break. Often times many people will come on and seem like trolls and they aren't. Others post and you know the point is to slam and not be productive. Its not as easy to tell, so they have to give people some rope before they pull the plug. They really aren't trying to kill commentary, but to make sure that the discussions are as informed and helpful as possible. When you get a site that's one of the premiere spots for WP news, it's not as easy to keep the trolls away and facilitate informed discussions.

I'm aware of the staff's constraints and I edited my post to reflect that. But calling someone a troll isn't helpful nor informative. Its also against the forum rules to even throw troll around. I wouldn't have made the feedback if I wasn't seeing it so frequently. It should be close to never, to be honest.
We have a report button use it. I haven't seen one single report from you. If your not part of the solution you are part of the problem.

Fair enough. I wasn't really sure if it was a reportable offense, even if it was in the rules. Now that that has been made clear I'll be sure to do so.
We have many threads and posts to go through any help you can give us finding people who are not posting in a civil manner is appreciated. We do what we can but there is much to do.

Actually, I've had the same thought here lately. It's like we need a forum specifically for complaints. I don't mind people having problems with their device, as long as they ask for help. But just to clutter up a forum complaining you don't like the way WP8 operates is really annoying. Complaints and legitimate questions are 2 separate things.
Understood. Not gonna go hunting for it but if I see it, it'll get to you. Thanks for the quick replies. If you see it fit yo close or delete this thread, you may.
One thing I have seen with here is sometimes how you word things, like anything in life, will either get you help or called a troll. Sometimes even the most tech savvy people don't always know how to get some questions answered in a way that doesn't sound trolling or off putting. Maybe we all should take a minute to really think before we post, but of course some people won't do that.
I don't think a complain zone would be helpful because it gives more ammo to trolls. It's better to try to phrase complaints as constructively as possible instead... - 12-22-2012, 04:57 PM #10
Yeah, a complain zone doesn't fit what I'd call a meaningful post. Not conductive. I get tensions around h. e are high when it comes to the OS success. I think people don't like the negative opinion enough so dedicated complaints won't help.
Trust me. The OS support will pick up. A friend of mine was remarking how she liked it from the commercials - 12-22-2012, 04:58 PM #11
It may help if threads on the same topic are collapsed into one. It just seems like overkill to have 12 separate threads on the exact same topic. Even if it is not trolling, with so many similar complaints in so many different threads, it can give the appearance as such. It also makes for an unpleasant experience for those who sign on seeking informative dialogue.
That's one of the main problems. That it's the same list of complaints over and over. I think that sets of some of the posters more than the complaints themselves. Perhaps a stickied thread of bugs and problems. A central place to look to see if someone has the same problem and if there's an answer. If not then you can add your unique problem or start a thread if it's new and a serious flaw that is affecting your immediate use of the phone.
After you've been around a while, you can start to tell who is contributing to the thread and who is just there to stir it up. If anything, there are too many obvious trolls roaming around in those threads. You can always tell because it's the same people liking and thanking each other. And it's always on a negative point. - 12-22-2012, 07:13 PM #14
We moderate the forums regularly and we do have troublemakers that have received infractions or bans. We obviously can't be everywhere which is why there's a report button. If you see a post that you find offensive report it and then the mod team will respond accordingly.
the irony of all of this is that the forum rules forbid saying that word of which one is, so no one can call out that unspeakable name for doing that unspeakable act.

Tomorrow marks the third anniversary of the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. And while I wish it was a distant memory, I've been thinking about it all too much lately.
The recent Exxon tar sands pipeline spill in Mayflower, Arkansas has evoked vivid memories of the BP spill. Exxon is following BP's playbook very closely, and like BP, is successfully controlling the entire response effort. Continue reading

today we had our first successfull flight with our new Electrum 100 flight control computer (an older video you can see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mChu9MxDeIA )
We aquired analog sensor data (three channels), logged this data and sent it down to the ground using an XBee wireless link.
This XBee connection is not very good (many package losses and slow data rate), therefore we would like to try an 802.11N USB Wifi adapter. Do you think, that the following adapter would work:

Or do you know any other 802.11N adapter, that works with the electrum 100? I would prefer a 5 Ghz adapter, but more important for us is, that the adapter supports two external antennas.
Best regards:
Uwe Fechner

Please help me? I am trying to create a logo for a friend of mine. I can't believe how hard it is just to ask a simple question on a website like this.
closed as not a real question by Farray Jun 6 '12 at 14:46
It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.
Unless the image is in a Photoshop, Illustrator, or similar file with layers etc, it won't be easy to copy the text. You could try one of the free font websites to search out a similar font. But, you definitely need to give more detail and ideally a link to the image. |
Splashup is an browser-based image editor, and judging from the home page's screenshot, it does feature editable-as-text text layers (the downloadable Light version's screesnhot doesn't show this feature, though). So presumably you can at least copy and paste text within an image, and Whether or not you can paste it into another Splashup image, or outside Splashup, I can't say. |

Jean to retain Bok captaincy
26 Nov 2012
Heyneke Meyer wants Jean de Villiers to continue as Springbok captain in 2013.
When De Villiers was handed the captaincy in early 2012, Meyer made it clear that it was a short-term appointment. Meyer said that he would not be rushed into appointing a long-term skipper, and that he would review this position at the end of the 2012 season.
It was believed that De Villiers's age (31) counted against the Stormers veteran, as he would in all likelihood not last through to the 2015 World Cup.
But it seems that Meyer has now had a change of heart. Following Saturday's win at Twickenham, a victory that saw the Boks finishing their three-game tour unbeaten, Meyer confirmed that De Villiers is likely to continue as captain in 2013.
'Provided Jean is able to carry on and he continues to play like he is at the moment, and there is no reason why he shouldn't be able to, then I would like him to carry on as the captain next year,' said Meyer.
'Jean was new to me at the start of the year in the sense that I had not worked with him before. I had only coached against him [when Meyer worked at the Bulls]. But I went with him as the leader and it has worked out really well.'
The Boks have finished the 2012 season with seven wins in 12 Tests. They struggled with injuries to key players throughout the season, but Meyer feels that De Villiers played a key role in keeping the side together.
'He has done a great job in creating the culture of the team and he was one of the few players, there being two others, who played every Test match this year.
'He has proved himself to be a really good captain and he has been a great help to me during the course of the year, particularly with the way he has worked with the youngsters.'

26 Nov 2012, 18:09 pm@Horings-49: And so Botha, who is the same age, but has less experience than Etzebeth, will be a better captain? Why? Simply because he was the under 20′s captain?
26 Nov 2012, 18:32 pmAdriaan for Bok captain 2013 – even if it is only in a care taking role.
26 Nov 2012, 18:36 pmHabana in talks with Toulon….
26 Nov 2012, 18:50 pm@Dwarslat-52:
imagine the hissy fit Bissie will throw if that should happen.
He'll be having recurring nightmares of the deja vu with Smittie all over again.
Probably pack his bags and play abroad, and if he goes his boetie will also go. -
26 Nov 2012, 18:55 pmJean De Villiers has been carrying Meyer, without JdV Meyer would have crumbled into a heap this year and Meyer knows it only too well.
JdV has been Meyer's backstop and carried the can for him when Meyer din't know which way was up or down JdV carried the can in spite of all Meyers outright fckups..
Strauss would have been one dismal failure as captain.. the only one in that squad able to carry off the captaincy role apart from JdV is Francoise Louw.
26 Nov 2012, 19:03 pmIt would seem that cricket and rugby captaincy and teams are poles apart.
In the cricket set up the captain pretty much runs the show and the players are self sufficient.
Rugby the opposite.
Few coaches have found the balance.
Mallet wanted to assert his authority and dropped Teichman at a crucial stage, Divvie gave up on his plans and allowed the senior players too much power and HM doesn't have a clear decision after 12 tests.
Seems like Christie and Jake got the balance right.
If HM had taken over in 2007 with Matfield still playing it would have been a completely different first year for him -
26 Nov 2012, 19:12 pmJust an observation on the cricket which Ali Bacher and others are calling the greatest draw ever. Does anyone remember Mike Athertons 185 not out in over 10.5 hours against us at the Wanderers to salvage a draw for England?
26 Nov 2012, 19:13 pmWhy why why why why why why !!!
31 years of age is old for a backline player.
Yes the year ended on a high but his poSition was meant to be temporary…while you found a suitable and younger candidate to lead the team forward. WTF…..catch a WAKEUP !!!
26 Nov 2012, 19:13 pm@ufo-44:
Your suggestion is not that far fetched.
However: In a team environment of this nature it could prove to be too much of a step up for a 20 yo. Daars ouens met harde baarde in daai team.
26 Nov 2012, 19:13 pm@nortierd-56: If Meyer had chosen any other captain this year from Strauss to Bismark to Spies to Daniel to whoever you fancy he would have crumbled into a heap of psychological distraught mess
JdV kept his show on the road in spite of all Meyers dismal self delusional fck ups.. JdV and help from his stalwart backups in Louw, Vermeulen, Strauss, Etsebeth, JdP, Alberts, Habana and JPP
The only other candidate for captain in this group of players is Francoise Louw.. not Strauss or Bismark or Spies or anyone else.. It is only JdV or Louw who can carry this can for Meyer and he knows it very very well that why he needs JdV to continue carrying the can.. because nobody else would be able to under the conditions he has been coaching the team.. JdV carried the team in spite of Meyer's own frailty and weak decision making.. JdV been carrying the can unbeknownst to you and 90% of the so called supporters out there calling for JdV's head on a block.
26 Nov 2012, 19:26 pmJean can carry my cans anyday. I love him
26 Nov 2012, 19:33 pm@skopdiekan-60:
yes, despite Jeans' shortcomings as a centre, the respect he has from his peers counts the most.
HM has summed it up.
I think supporters misjudge the impact a captain has on the media and foreign public perception.
Pienaar had it, John Smit had it in spades, he had to totally get our credibilty back after the fiasco of the previous 4 years, and Jean comes accross well enough.
I am an Afrikaans male, yet even I sometimes cringe at interviews held with players that goes out to an international audience and the player talks Afrikaans.
I know it his right and am not knocking the language as it is my mother tongue, but common sense should sometimes prevail.
You can't have the national captain standing there going " ja, erm, we needs to go back to the drawing board, we stick to our guns"
You need to be an eloquent speaker to successfully do the job -
26 Nov 2012, 19:39 pm@nortierd-62:
Interesting point. The International Tennis Association (or whatever it's called) has a rule that players must be able to speak decent english in order to give interviews and comments. -
26 Nov 2012, 19:43 pm@David-63:
Translater might be an option?
Maybe Divvie could have done with one -
26 Nov 2012, 20:12 pmJean has had his time in the sun. I've been a great fan of his over the years but as with all top sportsmen, Father Time has caught up with him. I've never been a fan a top backline players over the age of 30 keeping a youngster out.
Bissie, Adriaan and Schalk were all mentioned by HM as part of his recognised leaders before JDV was given the captaincy.
But next year, I'd give it to Flo.
I agree with Willie there.
26 Nov 2012, 20:23 pmI doubt he'd give the captaincy to someone playing abroad.
Flo is a very good option, but not a recognized captain so it will also have an element of risk.
Maybe the first thing he should do is come back and play for a SA franchise again. -
26 Nov 2012, 20:52 pmThere are so many things to consider:
- Adriaan Strauss is a contender being the current vice-captain
- Bissie was the vice-captain until he got injured – and HM knows that Bissie won't play second fiddle to anyone – he doesn't want a repeat of the John Smit fiasco
- Schalk still has to prove his fitness after a super long lay-off at the Stormers and prove that he has what it takes
- JDV in my opinion is the wrong side of 30 for a backline player to be considered – captaincy is one thing, form is another. His play defensively has been great – the Boks leaked 1 try on the EOYT – but he the 12 needs to spark the backline as well.
That is why I settled on Flo.
We have all recognised by now that HM will select NH players. Why not as captain?
26 Nov 2012, 21:03 pmthey will all fck it up… Meyer knows if he wants to be successful he needs a proper captain at the helm.. who can carry the motivation of the team on the field… Bismark. Adriaan and anyone else will fck it up.. there are only two candidates in this team right now.. JdV and Frans Louw.. nobody else. And not schalk either.. no way.
26 Nov 2012, 21:04 pm@I am a stormer-67:
Heyneke is big on training camps and get togethers pre International season.
To hold these without your captain, not sure it will work.
Not sure what his contract in the NH is like, but it probably stipulates he may be available for the test window only.
I might be completely wrong and HM might think along the same lines as you, so we'll wait and see what happens next year. -
26 Nov 2012, 21:08 pm@skopdiekan-60: Hi Skop.Trust you are
well.Not fighting but drop the "E" from Francoise.Female as in Hardy.
Francois Louw.Keep Well.Goodnight -
26 Nov 2012, 21:14 pmJune next year is the first test window. And Bath permitted Flo to participate in the Rugby Championship as well. But that was their off-season. But HM is headstrong – and will get his man. For now, that is JDV. It seems to me that HM is no different from other Bok coaches and is slowly building towards the World Cup in 2015 – and I don't want to see JDV make it that far. There will be too uch competition for places as we get closer to that event. HM must concentrate on winning home and away matches against the AB's – with the right players and captain in place. That is his goal, is it not?
26 Nov 2012, 21:20 pm@I am a stormer-71:
I agree.
We should be in a postion where we beat the NH sides more convincingly, we should dispose of Argentina home and away with more ease, beat Australia home and away maybe, run NZ close away and beat them at home.
I do believe he has a plan and it's no use being dragged behind kicking and screaming, so I will give him the benefit of the doubt and support the team and him.
It won't make an iota of difference to HM whether I agree with him and moan and groan about his selections so why bother? -
26 Nov 2012, 21:33 pmJean plays a fairly specific game, takes the ball to the line a lot, defends really well, not the best passer but what he does he does better than anyone else.
The problem is that he will play 13 a great deal of next year and i don't feel that's best for the Boks.
But we've had to put up with Pierre and a bunch of other useless players over the years so jean looks like a shining light compared to them.
Good captain too.
It depends on who plays around him. I think that there are some great leaders in the team, Adriaan Strauss, Francois Louw, so he can consider himself lucky in a way.
I wouldn't pick Bismark as Bok Captain. No way, Don't see it.
26 Nov 2012, 21:34 pmIf you look at his loss ratio this year – it is 25%. 3 losses out of 12 played. If you had offered that to HM at the beginning of the year, he would have bought it. But he will want to beat the AB's at home next year. Even away. Those are his goals.
But 2012 is done and dusted. HM will have learnt a lot. He has brought through plenty promising youngsters and now knows the players he can build a great squad with.
2013 is going to be interesting as more players come back from injury. And who knows, maybe there'll be more NH players included. Including those in Japan.
26 Nov 2012, 21:37 pm@I am a stormer-74:
He had this year to find his feet, 2013 will be much better, 2014 traditionally the year where he might experiment more and 2015 the year of reckoning -
26 Nov 2012, 21:56 pmJean has passed the HM test. Or maybe it should be the other way around. Both are passionate about Bok rugby and will take us forward in 2013. HM did play a massively
conservative game plan but the main thing is he instilled in the squad is a winning culture.People around here don't give enough credit to HM – sure the game plan wasn't pretty. But he still came out on top. And he now knows who is in and who is out.
26 Nov 2012, 22:04 pm@I am a stormer-76: Fair comment.
26 Nov 2012, 22:05 pmstrange that so many commenters on this site call for innovation and out-of-the-box thinking from heyneke… who has his job on the line… and criticise him as too conservative and unadventurous is his approach to springbok rugby…
yet they… with nothing on the line at all… are decidedly conservative and predictable in their own thinking…
very interesting…
in cricket graeme smith was chosen as captain after very few games… can't remember how many now… and without a full international season under his belt yet… and has a fairly good record over a near decade of international sport…
eben etzebeth is a helluva talent… is spoken about by all foreign commentators as a future great… comes from a family of leaders and is one of the few springboks guaranteed a place in the team by some distance, barring injury…
leadership imo would force him to focus and direct his natural aggression and energy in a positive, constructive and successful manner…
the most successful teams (generallising i know) at world cups have generally been more experienced ones… or ones in which the core of the team has been togetyher since before the previous world cup… aussie in 99, england in 03, nz in 11… even many of jakes team did in fact play in 03…
if heyneke was really innovative and brave and made eben captain now… he would have three years and over 30 tests experience as captain in 2015… and would still be young enough to lead the team into 2019 as well… with the yoing talent we have coming through we could have a hugely experienced team with massive competition for places in it…
but we'll all do the predictable thing and nominate the usual captaincy candidates straight out of the usual safe suspects box of same old same old favourites… and then we'll all criticise heyneke when he sticks with his predictable, safe choice…
if we can't think out-of-the-box with nothing riding on our 'choices' how do we expect heyneke to think out of the box with everything riding on his…?
26 Nov 2012, 22:08 pmwales/warburton for example… last year…
26 Nov 2012, 22:37 pmFrancois Louw for captain.He comes from the right background.
26 Nov 2012, 23:18 pmAnnouncing a captain over 6 months before the next test seems a ridiculous thing to do. A lot can happen in half a year.
Was this really necessary?
tbh as nice a guy as JDV seems, I don't think he can say with any real confidence that he is the best 12 or 13 in the country. It might be time to look at other options in this position if we want our back line to ignite with some semblance of creativity.
27 Nov 2012, 01:44 am@ufo-78:
Out of the "boxsmart" comment UFO. Eben is the next great captain of the Springboks. Heineke knows that. I think 2013 will be the final stage in JdV mentoring him at WP and in the Bok team. By the end of next year, Bissie, Schalk and Co. will not even be in his leadership league. JdV retires, and Bob's your uncle!
27 Nov 2012, 04:49 amSpies should be the captain but that is just my humble opinion.
Juan Smith another candidate
27 Nov 2012, 05:40 amWhere would Juan Smith play, positionwise?
27 Nov 2012, 05:44 am@Jinx2-84:
I think from the coach's box at best. He will need to put in a storming season before he will be selected for the Boks again, even more so to take on the captaincy role.
Like JdV you have to think it is a step backwards and not forwards…
27 Nov 2012, 07:41 amlets see who is available next year before we rush to condemn. a lot of rugby to played before the boks next match. and a lot of "availability" questions to be answered too.
JDV filled a void this year, and did extremely well considering he was probably 5th choice captain when HM got the job. i'm of the belief we should be looking at the next generation, but we also need to focus on results. it is not about building, it is about winning and so experience in key positions will always be needed.
27 Nov 2012, 08:01 am@Jinx2-82:
shot bro…
i believe eben is the only springbok who stands head and shoulders above the rest in his position, literally and form-wise, and assigning him a leadership role sooner rather than later would be a massive and worthwhile investment in the future of bok rugby…
and if there are guys like jdv, adriaan/bissie, bryan, jpp etc around him initially to assist i can see no reason why he shouldn't be appointed and do a successful job which he will just get better at all the time…
it's not that i think jean has done a bad job… far from it and i'm a big fan of his… would just rather get a long-term captain in place as soon as possible…
my fear is that heyneke will continue to use him as a 'stop gap' solution until he does breakdown and then leave us having to appoint and establish a new captain a few months before the world cup…
and now that heyneke has said that he intends building towards the world cup such an appointment would make sense…
of course any captain can break down… but as least pick one nearer the start of his career than the end of it…
anyway as munkiboi says… let's wait and see…
27 Nov 2012, 08:48 amJean is taking the role at the Stormers and Boks that Stirling Mortlock did successfully at the Brumbies and Wallabies… not rocket-science until a 12 or 13 of 'note' coming into the set-up… something neither the Boks nor Stormers have at the moment…
27 Nov 2012, 09:16 am@bryce_in_oz-88: I think JDV will retire from International rugby next year. So HM needs to be sure about his next captain. Bissy, Flo, Bekker, Pienaar, Vermeulen.
27 Nov 2012, 11:04 am@Jinx2-84:
6.Coetzee -
27 Nov 2012, 13:21 pmI think we must be careful of taking what journalists write completely as fact. When asked about the Jean captaincy would anybody expect Heyneke to suddenly say…"no I think I will drop him as Captain next year"? Of course not, they just got a NH clean sweep.
What we also know is that what Heyneke's has said in the past, he has abandoned or suddenly changed course. So lets see next year how Jean copes in Super Rugby and maybe the 1st couple of tests next year. I would like him to play better and stay with this team but his current shortcomings (no pass, crash and generally not helping this backline fire) could be too difficult to ignore if it repeats itself or gets worse next year.
27 Nov 2012, 20:30 pmgreatest13gerber, Spies will battle to make the team again. He has no ball sense, and is one of the most overrated Boks in the history of the game. He is one of the worst candidates for captain as he has no rugby brain to speak of.

The National Children's Study (NCS) is a longitudinal observational study that will examine the effects of genetics and environment on the health and development of children in the United States. The NCS is in a Vanguard, or pilot phase, so it is important to determine the feasibility, acceptability and cost of different data collection methods. The purpose of this study was to determine whether demographic characteristics differed in self-administered questionnaire (SAQ) completion rates, and to examine response rates when a $2 incentive was included with the mailed questionnaire.
This issue also contains a book review of "The Invasion of Indian Country in the 20th Century: American Capitalism and Tribal Natural Resources" submitted by Jeffrey S. Hermsen.

Except that they are completely different.
Sideways stories is a collection of (it's been so long, someone correct me) about 30 short stories about people who go to this school, and hillarious stuff that they do.
For instance, there is the one with the kid who becomes class president so he can turn on the lights in the morning. He is late one day to comfort one of his classmates whose pet died. The class sits in darkness waiting for him. Hillarious.

Maybe I haven't read Sideways Stories. I remember a brother and sister were living in a museum (I can't remember if they ran away from home or someone they were visiting). Also, I remember that the brother had a fever at one point. And at one point I think they had to figure out where Michelangelo was from. Is that Sideways Stories?

No need to be sad about that. If I remember correctly, the book's nothing to write home about. I don't hate the book, and it was amusing when I was in 5th grade (I think the teacher read it to us, though why she would do that when we were in 5th grade is beyond me), but that's all it is: amusing for a 10 year old. There are other books I read within a year of that that I have a much greater desire to read again --

TODAY | November 29, 2012
>>> a new approach to help kids learn about emotions using robots in the classroom. this is happening at a school in britain. michelle, good morning.
>> reporter: hi, matt. scientists realized by accident that autistic children respond really well to these cute little robots . they teach the children certain skills and help these kids who can have much difficulty communicating come out of their shells.
>> it seems a very human trait to be fascinated by robots.
>> help me obe --
>> meet this little guy.
>> my name is now. i can recognize your face. grab objects.
>> they are amazing. they stand up by themselves, can tell when you're looking at them, which can be a little spooky.
>> oh, my gosh, it's giving me the weirdest look.
>> memory games.
>> but the most amazing thing about these guys made by the french company is how they captured the imaginations --
>> do you want to play again?
>> yes.
>> -- of the autistic children like steven and daniel at this british school .
>> touch my right hand. congratulations.
>> reporter: with the teachers' guidance, the robots teach them to focus, converse, imitate, even pick up on the subtleties of human emotion that these kids struggle to identify.
>> let me give you a clue. it may be joy, surprise, or mockery, what's your guess?
>> mockery.
>> communicating and interacting with a human being , they're trying to do several things at once, words, body language, and facial expression, that can be difficult for them.
>> how does the robot make you feel?
>> happy.
>> why?
>> because he seems happy too.
>> she says this idea came by accident after a robotics presentation when a mother became emotional when her autistic son started exuberantly interacting with one, a first for the boy.
>> you want to see the kids.
>> the program is backed up by research, but you can easily see its effect.
>> the joy of it, really. these children who sometimes struggle to interact with the teachers and other people, but for some reason they will quite happily interact with a robot.
>> 6-year-old owen who started here very insular saw the robot and immediately asked if he could hold its hand, take it for a walk, stunning his teachers and parents. owen got his walk with the robot much to his delight.
>> well, the appeal of these robots seems to be their simplicity and predictability. but the goal is to help these children interact better with humans and that seems to be happening. some of the kids now have more self-confidence, and two of the kids in autistic programs are now completely in mainstream classes. was there something you wanted to add?
>> i love being on stage. thank you, matt and savannah.
>> michelle, thank you very much. and now thank you very much, we've had a lot of robots on this show over the years. this is the most incredible one i've ever seen.
>> it really is.
>> so he can think, speak, feel, hear. he apparently does yoga, i just saw him do an incredibly acrobatic move.
>> did you see when he was doing "gangnam style" and started to do the dance, the balance he has, goes to the side, doesn't tip over and how he can stand up on his own using one hand.
>> i can't do that.
>> it's amazing. you could see how it would be -- it would really work with kids who have autism. it is just so amazing to see a toy do something like that. to be able to connect at that level.
>> and completely focuses your attention.
>> absolutely.
>> it's impossible to take your eyes off him when he's moving.
>> fascinating, but not intimidating for those kids.
>> we want it for christmas.
>> the price point's a little bit high.
>> can you imagine how popular it would be --
>> how popular you would be with your kid.
>> thank you. we love you, thanks for coming on.
