The Iron Man showed up at the NovaCare Complex this morning.
Former Eagles right tackle Jon Runyan worked out for coach Andy Reid, offensive line coach Juan Castillo and general manager Tom Heckert before practice today.
The Eagles confirmed that they had brought Runyan in. According to Reid, the team wanted to see where the long-time Eagles tackle was physically in his rehabiliation.
The reason why? No one quite knows yet, although this could be a clue: starting right tackle Shawn Andrews was not practicing today. He was on the field, but was in shorts as the rest of the offensive line went through drills. Andrews had been bothered by a sore back, but returned recently and said he felt great.
Apparently, he had a setback.
Running back Brian Westbrook did practice, but he was added to the injury list by the team afterward with a knee injury. Westbrook, who had left knee surgery and right ankle surgery during the offseason, had not been listed on the injury report Wednesday.
Adding to the Andrews' intrigue, the Eagles closed their locker room to the media after practice and Reid took a circuitous route off the practice field in order to avoid questioners. Reid walked off with Westbrook.
Heckert had no comment after Runyan's workout.
Runyan, of course, spent nine seasons with the Eagles and never missed a game. He has started 192 straight regular-season games, the longest active streak among offensive linemen, but the Eagles opted not to re-sign him as a free agent this offseason. Runyan underwent microfracture surgery on his right knee shortly after last season and wasn't cleared to return by Dr. James Andrews until last month.
Runyan was recently in Kansas City working out for the Chiefs.
Ben Dogra, the agent for Runyan, said he has not had any contract discussions with the Eagles about his client as of 3 p.m. today. Attempts to reach Runyan have been unsuccessful.
Several players did not know of Runyan's appearance before practice, including backup right tackle Winston Justice.
Afterward Justice talked about the possibility of starting Sunday's season opener.
"I don't know, I'm just a worker here," said Justice, who started all four preseason games at right tackle.
Justice said he's ready if needed.
Offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg declined to talk about Andrews' absence as he left the practice field.
Other players were aware of Runyan's workout.
"I just know that they were bringing him in," said Eagles guard Todd Herremans, who is currently recovering from surgery on his left foot. "I don't know anything else."
The Eagles' offensive line has been beseiged by injuries this preseason. New left tackle Jason Peters dealt with an off-and-on thigh strain through most of training camp. New right guard Stacy Andrews was gradually brought fully into the starting fold as he recovered from off-season knee surgery. Herremans, of course, had a stress fracture in his foot and is expected to miss at least two games. And right tackle Shawn Andrews missed all of camp and most of the preseason with a sore back.
Shawn Andrews has been practicing for two weeks and is slated to start Sunday in the season opener at Carolina. But he didn't have the opportunity to test out his back in a preseason game and hasn't played in a game in almost a year.
While it's not known yet whether the Eagles are seriously considering signing the 35-year-old Runyan, they could be gauging Runyan's return just in case something would happen to their starting right tackle.

Smartphones and tablets have become major gaming platforms, and typically we think of these devices as allowing gaming on the go. I know I've killed many an idle minute waiting in grocery store lines while knocking out a few levels of Angry Birds.
But according to a new survey from mobile game company Mocospace, that's not where most mobile gaming happens. As reported by GigaOM, home is where the game is, even if it's on a mobile device. And specifically, this kind of gaming most often takes place in bed.
From the GigaOM story:
Mocospace, a mobile entertainment site, surveyed 15,000 users and found that 96 percent of them say they play mobile games from home, ahead of waiting for an appointment (82 percent), commuting (73 percent) and at work (64 percent). . . .
. . . When given only one choice of response, 44 percent of people said they played at home, while 22 percent said they played while waiting in line, 21 percent played while traveling and 13 percent played at a restaurant.
But what's more interesting is that the gaming at home is taking place most often in bed, according to the Mocospace survey. When given only one answer to choose from, 53 percent of home gamers said they played from their bed while 41 percent said they played in the living room, 5 percent played from their bathroom and 1 percent played from the dining table. Nokia found similar results in a survey in January, with people saying they play mobile games most often before sleeping in bed.
I can vouch for the mobile-gaming-at-home part. Most of my play happens on the couch, often while we pause a TV show or movie so my wife can talk on the phone, or just before I head upstairs to sleep. I generally don't do mobile games in bed, though my wife is fond of playing a few rounds of Words With Friends before she calls it a night.
The Mocospace study jibes with other surveys that found similar behavior, and suggests that mobile gaming may be challenging console gaming for players' time. I suspect hardcore gamers will stick to their PS3s and Xboxes, but for casual gamers, smartphones and tablets are becoming the platform of choice.
For me, my mobile devices have replaced PC gaming. I used to be an avid (though lame) first-person shooter fan, but as I've gotten older my virtual bloodlust has waned. I pretty much stick to games like Tetris, pinball and, yes, even Solitaire on my iPhone and iPad.
When and where do you play mobile games? Respond in our poll, and in the comments.

Policy Practicum: China's Solar Industry and its Global Implications
Law School
Recommended for route(s):
[ Litigation ] Environmental Law: General
Why it is relevant for ...
[ Litigation ] as a Related Elective for those interested in Public Policy : A policy practicum is a great choice for skills-based training in the range of methods available to effect changes in the law. Some policy labs, like this one, offer students an opportunity to do research on the scope of a problem not adequately addressed in current law or regulation. Developing an expertise in empirical research is particularly useful for those interested in an academic career. This course should be particularly useful for students interested in clean tech and climate change issues. Students will analyze industry and policy data in order to make recommendations for policy and finance-oriented approaches that the U.S. and China could each adopt so that the two countries operate more strategically and with greater economic efficiency in a global solar market.
General course Description:
China dominates and defines a growing global market for solar power. That market faces a stark dichotomy. Solar energy's prospects as a meaningful electricity source are increasingly bright. Yet, amid a global glut of solar panels, the future contours of the industry - the relative roles of leading players such as the United States and China - are increasingly unclear. Students in this seminar will analyze industry and policy data to assess China's competitive strengths in the global solar industry and, based on those conclusions, to suggest finance and policy approaches that the US and China each could adopt so that the two countries operate more strategically in an economically efficient global solar market - and, by extension, a globalizing market for cleaner sources of energy. This research will figure into a project on this theme underway at the Steyer-Taylor Center for Energy Policy and Finance. Course deliverables will vary among students and will be based on discussions at the start of the class between the instructors and the students. Some students will produce papers; others will develop and analyze key sets of data. Students from graduate programs around the university - the law school and others - are encouraged to apply. Preference will be given to those with demonstrated interest in energy finance and policy, particularly bearing on China, and with fluency in Mandarin, though neither is a firm requirement. Given that the Steyer-Taylor Center project will continue through the academic year, preference also will be given to students who intend to continue with the practicum in both the winter and spring quarters. Students have the option to write papers for W or R credit. If the paper involves independent research, then it will be eligible for R credit. The instructor and student must agree whether the student will receive an R or a W. After the term begins, students accepted into the course can transfer from the W writing section (01) into section (02), which meets the R requirement, with consent of the instructor. NOTE: Students may not count more than a combined total of eight units of directed research projects and policy lab practica toward graduation unless the additional counted units are approved in advance by the Petitions Committee. Such approval will be granted only for good cause shown. Even in the case of a successful petition for additional units, a student cannot receive a letter grade for more than eight units of independent research (Policy Lab practicum, Directed Research, Senior Thesis, and/or Research Track). Any units taken in excess of eight will be graded on a mandatory pass basis. For detailed information, see "Directed Research/Policy Labs" in the SLS Student Handbook. Elements used in grading: Class Participation, Written Assignments or Paper. CONSENT APPLICATION: To apply for this course, students must complete and e-mail the Consent Application Form available on the SLS Registrar's Office website (see Registration and Selection of Classes for Stanford Law Students) to the instructors. See Consent Application Form for submission deadline.

CANANDAIGUA � Loss of local control, privacy and creativity are among troubles with the new Common Core learning standards, citizens said during a community information meeting Thursday in Canandaigua.
Worries about the new standards � how and why they are being implemented and the negative effect on parents, students and teachers � were evident as many who attended the presentation and discussion shared experiences.
�There is a great deal of money to be made by the Common Core,� said Beth Bingham of Middlesex, who led the meeting that included a showing of one of five videos in a series, "Stop the National Common Core Power Grab." The video attributes the origins and background of the Common Core to corporations that stand to make money from selling learning materials and products, such as the Pearson publishing company and Microsoft. Meanwhile, parents, teachers and students are being forced to fit a mold that strips away local control and the joy of learning, said Bingham, a mother and registered daycare provider with background in early childhood education.
Throughout the meeting, citizens discussed the importance of putting pressure on state legislators and raising awareness. The next step? Trish Christoforo of Canandaigua, who helped organize Thursday's event, said a Facebook page will be set up to share information and continue a dialogue.
James Schwartz, a professor and chairman of undergraduate teacher preparation at St. John Fisher College, said that the Common Core modules � scripted lesson and curriculum ��can discourage teachers from being creative over fears that deviating from the script can result in bad evaluations.
�It can be incredibly demoralizing,� said Schwarz, a Canandaigua resident who previously taught at Keuka College, Houghton College and Geneva College and taught elementary school.
Nancy Stanton Multer of Middlesex, an early learning specialist and former executive director of Child and Family Resources Inc., said even the best teachers are being intimidated into believing they must use the modules to meet the Common Core standards in order to avoid being penalized due to observations, evaluations and test results.
Several parents of children in grades three through eight, grades dictated by Common Core, said they are frustrated because the homework and other materials their children are expected to learn is complicated and sophisticated beyond what they believe is reasonable for their child�s age level.
�It�s all about how to pass a test,� said Dave Christoforo, a father of three from Canandaigua and Trish Christoforo's husband.
Concerns over loss of privacy were also discussed. The presentation included a report about information the federal government seeks related to Common Core. According to the report, data sought includes information on students� religious affiliation, family income, health history and other personal matters.
�I am terrified,� said Morgan Woodworth, 16, who attended the meeting with her mother, Michelle Woodworth, a mother of four in the Canandaigua district. Morgan said she fears she will be judged by prospective colleges or employers based on the personal information.
Bingham said a powerful but controversial method of�raising concerns is�for students to refuse to take�the tests, though she said�it must be done with care to protect the students from being punished. She recommended following guidelines at the website www.nystoptesting.com on how to �opt out."

I refer to �making memories� when writing about experiencing new things. I use that term literally because it accurately describes my only serious hobby.
I refer to �making memories� when writing about experiencing new things. I use that term literally because it accurately describes my only serious hobby.
I collect memories like any stamp or coin collector picks up treasures. I categorize, catalog and store them. Everybody does the same living their lives, but I consciously pursue them.
However unlike tangible stamps and coins, which typically find their way into books and boxes, my collection of memories is chemical and electrical and nestled amid my brain�s synapse jungle.
A collector of �normal� things can access his or her goodies at will, spread them out and pick through the items. My hobby collection is more akin to a stew so it takes some effort to retrieve particular kernels, colors and flavors.
And like any jungle, it�s easy to get lost in my mental maze and is getting easier with time. As I�ve aged I�m having more and more trouble extracting specific items on demand. In a nutshell, this nut forgets where I�ve stashed them.
But surprisingly, forgetfulness has become one of the best parts of my hobby. When an obscure, long-forgotten memory is pulled to the surface it�s an absolute gift. Something, somebody, a sound or smell might push the �retrieve� button and out rolls the treasured tidbit.
Some of those buttons were pushed this week by wet weather. Nasty weather always drove me and my friends to hit the woods or water, depending upon the season.
Chilly, blustery days often sent me �hunting.� I use quotation marks because I never remember doing much �finding� when weather was poor but did harvest bushels of sweet memories that remain delicious these decades later.
The bad weather allure likewise applied to fishing. Marcus Alsup and I fished from Thompson�s Pier during one of our hurricanes. The wind was so strong our rigs just dipped in and out on the surface. We caught zilch.
I didn�t have a sinker in my box heavy enough to counteract the wind�s push on my line. I guess a boat anchor would�ve worked. What a combination, fishing with 10 pounds of sinker and a single ounce of brains.
Snowfall was magic. I remember pristine white woods dotted with tracks going everywhere and nowhere. We fished for speckled trout as icicles formed on rod tips.
This time of the year there�s a lot of seasonal talk about yummy turkey and dressing. But if you haven�t eaten Vienna sausages with crackers and a Pepsi in a boat or tree-stand, your culinary life is wildly incomplete.
Yuletide aromas of cut pine and fir boughs mingled with a roaring fireplace is magic indeed. But, my nose remembers the very special smell of hot coffee, cigarette smoke and old gunpowder residue while waiting for dawn�s first-light to load-up.
Dear friends of childhood remain enshrined in my memory collage as part of such experiences. It�s wonderful replaying moments of sharing bad weather with pork and beans spiced with a million laughs.
This has been a great autumn.

In Texans' playoff chase, only mystery is seeding
Do not expect the Texans to talk about the playoffs before they clinch a second consecutive postseason appearance.
But just because they won't discuss the playoffs doesn't mean the rest of us can't. It's that time of the year, right?
Clinching another playoff berth is inevitable, of course, possibly even Sunday if they defeat Tennessee for a sixth consecutive victory that would increase their record to 11-1.
"We've gotten ourselves in really good position, but we have some challenges," coach Gary Kubiak said. "We're going to sit down Monday and see where we are with the injured guys."
The Texans have a lot of injuries, especially on defense, but so does every team. General manager Rick Smith and his personnel department have stockpiled quality depth that's now required to make a significant contribution.
After the Tennessee game, the Texans visit New England, host Indianapolis, host Minnesota and visit Indianapolis.
"We're going to have to play good road football," Kubiak said. "Every win right now is huge. Every time you reach a new number now, it can mean the difference in the long haul (home-field advantage in the playoffs).
"We understand that, but right now we have to regroup, see where we (are) physically, and get ready to go to Tennessee."
Texans vs. Patriots
Barring a collapse, the Texans and New England should compete for home-field advantage in the playoffs. That means their Dec. 10 prime-time game at New England is paramount to the goal of earning home-field advantage.
The Texans don't even want to think about this right now, but if they avoid an upset against the Titans and lose to the Patriots, they can still get home-field advantage by defeating Indianapolis twice and Minnesota.
If the Texans lose to the Patriots, New England will earn the head-to-head tiebreaker if it becomes necessary to determine playoff seeding. But if the Texans win the rest of their games to finish 14-2, the Patriots would be 13-3 at best.
It would take quite a collapse for the Texans to not have home-field advantage over Baltimore and Denver. They defeated both teams, so they own the head-to-head tiebreaker.
I'm thinking right now that Denver (six-game winning streak) and New England (five in a row) will play in a divisional playoff game, and the winner will come to Reliant Stadium for the AFC Championship Game.
Can you imagine that? I can.
After what I witnessed in their last two games, I think the Texans are capable of winning out, but I still think they'll lose at New England. No shame in that. Especially if they win the rest of their games, which would include a victory at Indianapolis for the first time in team history.
In come-from-behind overtime victories over Jacksonville and Detroit, I saw players with guts, character and pride - all the clichés tantamount to a team on a mission to win a Super Bowl.
Texans critics - and there are still many among their fans - will say they shouldn't have put themselves in situations to trail the Jaguars and Lions in the fourth quarter. Well, it happens to every team.
Don't Cowboys fans wish their team had displayed those same traits necessary to escape with a victory over a rookie quarterback? What about the Patriots when they lost at home to Arizona?
I could go on and on, but ultimately, only one thing counts, and we all know what it is, no matter how weak the opponent is.
Silver linings
Yes, the Texans should be criticized for playing so poorly they had to go to overtime to beat two teams with losing records, but they also deserve praise for pulling out victories, especially at Detroit.
You would have had to be there to truly appreciate it, but going 97 yards to tie the score with time running out and a crowd so loud Ford Field seemed to be shaking was an impressive accomplishment by a team capable of bringing the city of Houston its first Lombardi Trophy.

Hi! I am April—half of the creative duo over at Dandelionsn' Dungarees. I am here blogging today as part of the Aspiring Designers Challenge. My first pattern was the DarlingDungarees, and now, after several months' hiatus, I am ready for my second go!
When my older children were small, I sewed a lot for my twin sons. Anyone with boys knows it can be hard to find creative patterns to sew for them. I now have a 6-year-old son and he is always so sad because I sew for Big Sister and not for him. Finally, inspiration struck. I remembered the baseball shirts my older sons wore when they were 6 years old (17 years ago) and the Old Tyme Baseball Shirt was born.
I started working on this pattern last fall. Then as happens with everyone, LIFE took over. The pattern sat in my unfinished pile for several months. One day, I was chatting with a fellow designer for whom I was testing a pattern. She told me I should sign up for the Aspiring Designers Challenge and get this pattern into production already. Having a concrete deadline was just the motivation I needed to get moving!
The Old Tyme Baseball Shirt is a loose-fitting shirt that can easily be layered over a long sleeve T-shirt for cooler weather. It features a snap or button front and a piped placket and cuffs. The simple design makes it perfect for embellishing with your favorite fabrics, embroidery, or appliqué. It is definitely a design any boy or girl would love.
The Old Tyme Baseball Shirt is available in 3 size groups, NB to 18 months, 2T to 7, and 8 to 16, so your children of any age can be matchers! You can get your copies in our Craftsy shop. The best part? This pattern is on sale today and tomorrow (2/24 and 2/25), one size range for $5, two size ranges for $9, and all 3 size ranges for only $13. You can also win a copy through Pattern Revolution, after all, who doesn't like to be a winner?
